Zhang Yuanjun still gave his album to his classmates in Beijing.
"Want to sign?" Zhang Yuanjun held a pen.
"No." Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin refused in unison.
"Sign one." Zhang Yuanjun shamelessly insisted on signing, "I won't charge you any money."
"I'm just going to listen to the song and I don't want your autograph." The two of them still didn't want Zhang Yuanjun's autograph.
"Sign one!" Zhang Yuanjun said sternly, "Brother, it's your first album, why don't you give me face? I'll sign it if I tell you to!"
"Okay, okay, you sign the autograph." The two returned the album to Zhang Yuanjun for signature.
"That's right," Zhang Yuanjun muttered while signing, "My first album, 14 songs, is given to you for free, and it also comes with an autograph. What a great thing, but I won't give it to others if they want it. It's signed, let's go have some fun." Zhang Yuanjun returned the album to the two of them.
"Shaobao." Zhu Yawen said with a smile.
Zhang Yuanjun said: "Look, "Chopin in November" has 12 songs; "No. 89757" has 12 songs. I have 14 songs, I gave you a lot. I only sold you 35, one song is only 2 Five dollars, where can you find such a good thing?"
"When it is officially released, there will be pirated copies online within a few days. I will still listen to it then."
"Piracy dog, bah!" Zhang Yuanjun despised Luo Jin.
"Oh, I'm a pirate? Is the legendary private server you play authentic?" Luo Jin retorted.
"Why are you talking about this?" Zhang Yuanjun was a little embarrassed, "It affects the relationship between brothers. Listen to the music."
Zhu Yawen put the movie into the CD-ROM drive of his laptop and clicked on a song at random.
"...the brightest star in the night sky, can you hear clearly the person who looks up? The loneliness and sigh in the heart."
The song is over.
"It's interesting." Zhu Yawen praised, "One more song."
First a female voice:
"You are so damn gentle..."
Then there is an English rap by a male voice, followed by a Chinese rap, and then singing.
"Can you rap?" They had been sleeping together for 4 years, but they didn't know that Zhang Yuanjun had this skill.
"I can't sing, dance or rap." This is really not Zhang Yuanjun's bragging, he really knows these three things.
"Damn Tenderness" received unanimous praise from Luo Jin and Zhu Yawen: "This is good. This song is worth 35 yuan."
"I haven't heard anything good since I first saw it. Listen to the song at the end, "Da Ji Song"."
"The native wood brews the fire in the water, the jade liquid in the golden bottle makes the universe small, the literary idiot and the martial artist have three points of blood, and the rivers and lakes meet half a spring... The strong wind blows the waves, the body is buried after death, and the madness forgets each other in one trip, and I don't know the east. The sky is white."
"What are you doing?" But the song "Da Ji Song" was not liked by the two of them immediately. "It sounds very nice and has a majestic spirit, but I can't understand the lyrics."
"This song is just to show off the lyrics. How was the writing?"
"I can't understand it, so I won't judge it."
"Just tell me, can these fourteen songs of mine sell for seven or eight hundred thousand?" Zhang Yuanjun wanted to brag about one million, but it was a bit false. His first album sold one million, which was a bit scary.
"The one that was released at the same time as you was Wang Lihong's "Unparalleled Heroes". Wang Lihong's strength..." Obviously, they didn't believe that Zhang Yuanjun's album could beat Wang Lihong.
Zhang Yuanjun's album was officially released on Christmas, and Wang Lihong's "Universal Heroes" was released on December 30.
"You don't need to say anything." Zhang Yuanjun naturally knows Wang Lihong's current appeal, "If Wang Lihong hadn't released the film at the same time, I would have dared to ask for a million pictures."
"If you don't blow it, you'll die!"
A new music artist dares to ride on Wang Lihong's head for his first album?
Everyone will feel that he is overestimating his abilities.
"I just read the news, saying that the dealer took away 200,000 yuan from the pre-sale of "Unparalleled Heroes". What about you?"
"More than 10,000 but less than 20,000." Seeing the disdainful expressions on their faces, Zhang Yuanjun said, "I'm a newcomer, and it's already good to be able to sell 10,000 in pre-sales. Ask around and see how many newcomers have pre-sales." I am tall.
"I heard from the market in Wheatfield that there have been a lot of orders added in the past few days. When it is officially launched, it will not be a problem to sell goods worth 35,000 yuan."
"Okay, okay, I hope our third album will sell well." Thirty-five thousand is enough for what you can do.
…………
Since "The Promise" entered the promotion period, its exposure rate has been very high. From the director Kai Ge's announcement that he was "a candidate for the Oscars" - he said he wanted to win the best foreign language film.
Then when Chen Kaige angrily scolded the glamorous newcomer reporter, yes, it was Liu Yan who had just debuted. She had also been unlucky for eight lifetimes. She asked questions according to the script, but was scolded by Director Chen.
This show after show has already made "The Promise" very famous.
At six o'clock in the evening, the premiere of "The Promise" officially begins.
One hundred warriors wearing red and white armor were arranged at the scene, full of energy.
It was freezing cold in Beijing today, but it still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of movie fans. Six hundred fans gathered around the red carpet early, waiting for their idols to appear.
But the crew of "The Promise" was a bit unkind. These fans and samurai were called by the organizer at 12:30 to rehearse. As a result, no celebrities came, so they waited in the cold wind for 6 hours.
Among the fans present, Liu Huohua and Nicholas Tse had the most fans, about 120 people, while Chen Hong had the fewest fans, only about 60 people.
A fan of Chen Hong said secretly: "I just came here to watch the movie." This sentence expressed the thoughts of several Chen Hong fans around him.
Invited celebrity guests walked onto the red carpet one after another, causing fans to scream.
Zhang Yuanjun appeared in the middle. In temperatures below minus ten degrees, Zhang Yuanjun walked onto the red carpet wearing a decent suit - with a baby warmer attached inside.
It’s not like there weren’t any of his fans at the scene, maybe a dozen.
"Yuanjun!"
"Zhang Yuanjun!"
Faced with the calls from fans, Zhang Yuanjun smiled and waved to say hello.
Zhang Yuanjun walked the 50-meter red carpet in less than a minute, left his signature on the signature wall, turned around, waved to the media and fans, and entered the venue.
At half past six, the crew of "The Promise" entered the venue.
As Ye Jintian walked onto the red carpet, everyone began to cheer.
When Zhang Baizhi appeared in a low-cut black velvet evening dress, the fans finally couldn't contain their excitement and began to scream.
And she was not afraid of the cold and waved to everyone, and accepted the flowers sent by fans who broke through the security line.
Since then, the red carpet style of Nicholas Tse, Liu Huohua and Zhang Dongjian has also made fans scream one after another.
Chen Kaige and his wife made a "V" with both hands as soon as they appeared on the stage.
As the stars of "The Promise" reached the end of the red carpet, brief remarks were made. Mr. and Mrs. Chen said with high spirits, "The Promise loves you! Loves the audiences all over the world! Support the development of Chinese films!" before walking into the auditorium from the fireworks.
In the auditorium, the host made a brief introduction and the crew also made a brief sharing. Then the film began to be screened, and there will be a sharing session after the screening.
Assistant Xiao Zhao followed Zhang Yuanjun to watch a movie.
After watching it she said she liked it.
Zhang Yuanjun swore that he worked really hard to rewatch this movie.
But, it’s still bad!
Zhang Yuanjun has a high tolerance for bad movies. After all, he has also seen the ones that were worse than "The Promise".
But apart from the art, he really couldn't fault this film.
But he is Chen Kaige!
His debut novel is "Yellow Earth"!
He filmed "Farewell My Concubine"!
Watching "The Promise" immersively, he really didn't accept that Chen Kaige would make such a film.
