The source of the reliable information that Liu Qingshan got was naturally from Fang Qingyang. Currently, Ge Daquan, who is also a middle-level member of National Television, is fighting on the front line in Shanghai. This director is waiting in the National Television building in Kyoto.
They were appointed as on-the-spot conductors in tandem, of course because of their close relationship with Liu Qingshan, and they had the advantage of being close to the water.
However, although the live broadcast of National Television Channel 6 is said to be the mainland live broadcast rights won by the competition, in fact Liu Qingshan only charged a nominal fee, which is far less than the real money for the live broadcast rights in Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas. many.
He knew very well the importance of being broadcast live on national TV, so he decisively rejected the high copyright fee offered by the local station.
But his efforts did not end there. In addition, he also needed a variety show planning document to be handed over to the National Television Variety Show Channel. In a way, it could be regarded as his personal certificate of investment. In short, it would allow the National Television to open It is not easy to set a precedent.
For this reason, Fang Qingyang even made fun of his weird ideas on the phone. After all, Liu Qingshan only played a supporting role in this movie and was still a big villain.
His vast fan base also has similar doubts. Currently, some people are publicly calling on the Internet to resurrect Brother Chen, who he played in "Kung Fu", in the sequel, to be reborn like the protagonist and become the first protagonist. .
Zhou Xingchi also deliberately found such comments to stimulate Liu Qingshan to continue writing the sequel, but he just smiled meaningfully in return.
The nearly 2,000 audience seats in Daguangming are also carefully selected. Except for those reserved in advance for guests, media, and film critics, the rest are all based on the moderators of "Qingshan Post Bar" and "Qingshan Forum" The members’ contribution value will be allocated specifically.
This right is also one of the reasons why Liu Qingshan took the initiative to take the lead in this premiere. The underlying purpose is to cultivate connections for his next self-directed and self-starred film.
Only a few people know this reason, so so far most people still think that he is to promote the special effects technology in "Kung Fu", including those colleagues who have traveled thousands of miles.
As soon as five o'clock arrived, guests from all walks of life were welcomed on the red carpet outside the Grand Guangming Theater.
At this time, the streets and small squares outside the theater were already crowded with people. It is difficult to estimate the exact number of people, but it is an indisputable fact that there are more than 30,000 people.
This is under the premise that the location space is limited. Anyway, wherever you look, there are people crowded everywhere, and even the windows facing the street are full of heads.
The first people to appear on the red carpet are Chinese artists. No matter how famous they are, they cannot be compared with those legendary Western stars, although the Chinese people are very reluctant to have this situation happen.
Even these people, if you pull them out casually, they would be a presence that would elicit exclamations of exclamation, but today they have become the first guests in a warm-up atmosphere.
Due to the large number of people, both Chinese and foreigners appeared on the red carpet in groups of several people, and no one was exempt.
The on-site hosts were Zeng Zhiwei and a female host from Shanghai TV. Through their witty remarks, they guided the guests through the red carpet procedure.
There were huge posters on both sides of the red carpet, and waves of shouts echoed in the sky outside the theater, making the scene look like a collective carnival.
The silver flashlights of the reporters continued to vent along with the clicking sound, making all the colors in people's sight covered with a dazzling silver halo.
The unfamiliar faces in the crowd were as if they were at a disco show, shouting enthusiastically and sincerely. From the loudness of the voices, you could identify the guests on the red carpet without looking around. Position high or low.
Different from the previous red carpet process, the "Kung Fu" crew did not stay at the end to appear, but came after the domestic guests.
This is also to take care of the emotions of the previous guests and compatriots, and to highlight the identity of the Chinese artist as the host of this ceremony.
Their appearance was met with increasingly turbulent and heated shouts, and the crew was also divided into priorities. After several groups of people appeared in succession, the last ones to appear were Liu Qingshan and Zhou Xingchi.
Suddenly, the crowd began to violently commotion, and all the eyes of the crowd were focused in the same direction. The wild shouts of "Alien" were like thunder and rain, drowning out all the noise for a while.
Liu Qingshan would not let Zhou Xingchi next to him fall behind. After waving his hands around frequently, he gathered his hands into a trumpet shape around his mouth, leading everyone to call "Master Xing".
As expected, his appeal was not limited. The sound of "Alien" stopped abruptly and was quickly replaced by the word "Xing Ye" that resounded throughout the sky.
In fact, Zhou Xingchi originally had a large number of fans, but there was no prior slogan guidance, and the chaotic responses would naturally be drowned in the organized "Alien" voice.
Now, through Liu Qingshan's initiative, the cheers of "Master Xing" instantly evolved into a deep and persistent enthusiasm, making Zhou Xingchi's face filled with a brilliant and excited look, and his neat and white teeth were revealed.
The two did not slow down the process because of the extra shocking call, and arrived at the signing place at the same speed as the previous crew members.
Zeng Zhiwei's hoarse voice immediately sounded: "Zhou Xingchi Xingye and Liu Qingshan Alien, these two are the souls of "Kung Fu". I wonder who of you two should introduce this movie to everyone first?"
Liu Qingshan, who was walking at the same time, immediately took a step back, leaving Zhou Xingchi alone.
Zhou Xingchi looked back at him and immediately laughed, and Zeng Zhiwei also handed over the microphone in time.
Mr. Xing said: "Shanzi hid too quickly. He is the creator of "Kung Fu". He should be standing here!"
The laughter in the room stopped, and when he spoke again, his expression became serious: "I'm not boasting, "Kung Fu" is really a very successful movie. It is a comedy, but it is not limited to comedy. It is an action movie. But it’s not just superficial. In other words, it’s a movie that can make people cry. There are too many things mixed together, action, spoof, cold humor, morality, and values. When I saw the script, It was still late at night, and I couldn't sleep at that time! During the actual shooting, I found that no matter how much I tried to coordinate, I couldn't coordinate it together. In short, this movie is suitable for both movement and stillness. It’s got a degree, and Shanzi’s soundtrack is great!”
Zeng Zhiwei pretended to curl his lips: "You have said so much, but you still haven't mentioned any of the storyline. Are you deliberately keeping it mysterious? Or are you afraid of spoiling too much?"
Zhou Xingchi's face regained some smile: "It's all there, and I think the specific plot of the story needs to be experienced personally to be more profound! Especially in this drama, the extremely high-quality visuals and fighting action scenes are cleverly displayed. They are all presented in separate sections. The story itself is mixed with too many emotional highlights. Chinese action movies are usually full of serious and pious colors, but "Kung Fu" runs counter to this serious genre. It reminds the audience in its own way. , film art not only expresses nobility and sacrifice, comedy and emotion are also one of its traditions."
Zeng Zhiwei wanted to ask again, but Zhou Xingchi immediately turned around and pulled Liu Qingshan in front of him, "He is the creator of the story, the original creator of the soundtrack, and the provider of the film's special effects. It is more appropriate for him to answer than me."
Seeing that he had nowhere to hide, Liu Qingshan said a few words casually, and then spoke: "Let me boast a little first. The endless magical martial arts in "Kung Fu" have been renovated and appeared in the film brand new. It is an eye-catching experience; the whimsical ideas and the imaginative images are overwhelming. You can feel Mr. Xing’s good intentions in many details. Each actor seems to be here for the role, each with distinct characteristics. It fully demonstrates the comic effect of a comic book character.”
Zeng Zhiwei laughed loudly: "You are really right, you really showed your shamelessness in boasting!"
Liu Qingshan chuckled and replied: "Then I will leave the last words of praise to Mr. Xing. Normally I don't dare to say it to him, for fear that he will ridicule me for being a philistine!"
When the roar of laughter subsided, he continued: "The film is a mixture of sublime and absurd. The king of comedy, Zhou Xingchi Xingye, has brought kung fu comedy to a new level of kung fu comedy. And, I think it is the highest level of contemporary comedy." On the day of its release, I am willing to observe a day of silence for comedy workers all over the world, because Mr. Xing made it a landmark kung fu comedy that can make the audience laugh from beginning to end until they cry."
The on-site interview also came to an end as he finished speaking. Zeng Zhiwei wisely moved out of the way, allowing Liu and Tuesday to evacuate quickly.
But the two of them did not enter the theater directly, but waited at the entrance.
Afterwards, foreign guests appeared on the stage one after another. As international big names that were familiar to the domestic audience and awe-inspiring appeared on the red carpet, the atmosphere of the scene once again reached the highest peak.
Jin Xishan and Taylor appeared among this group of people, especially Jin Xishan. Strictly speaking, she is also a star from overseas, and the way she appeared was reasonable.
Taylor, who was just walking hand in hand with her, got a lot of applause and cheers, because the latter was over 1.7 meters tall, with a graceful figure, and a beautiful Western-style face. Compared to her, she looked extremely familiar. Familiar faces are much fresher.
Although many people know Taylor and have even listened to her songs, after all, there are still only a few people who can understand and like to listen to English songs. Most people only see her dazzling appearance. Perhaps the word "stunning" is used in This time and place couldn't be more appropriate.
However, the enthusiastic response they received was still obviously not as good as that of Keanu Reeves, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Matt Damon who appeared later. These three people are almost among the new generation of Hollywood superstars. The best.
Moreover, every work produced by these three people is an imported blockbuster in recent years, and it often costs hundreds of millions of dollars to produce a grand production.
Therefore, their arrival won the same fanatical momentum as Liu Qingshan and Zhou Xingchi, and excitement filled almost everyone's face.
