Zhang Yuanjun informed the Golden Horse Organizing Committee through the crew of "Animal World" very early that he would not be able to be there at that time. The organizing committee tried hard to explain, but finally expressed their understanding.
Do you think the Golden Horse Award has nothing to do with Zhang Yuanjun?
Innocent! !
In the second week after the Golden Horse Awards announced the shortlist, there was a lot of speculation on the Internet about the popular winners of this year's Golden Horse Awards, which is of course normal.
What's unusual is that the discussion about this year's Best Newcomer is extremely hot!
Not only because Tang Wei is currently in the limelight of public opinion, but also because Zhang Yuanjun, the most popular mainland Chinese actor in recent years, has also been shortlisted for the Golden Horse Best New Actor Award.
Currently, Tang Wei is the most vocal about winning the award, but many people are also optimistic about Zhang Yuanjun. They believe that he has a heavier role in "Animal World" and is more responsible for the quality of the film. The film's performance is also very good. The judges Zhang Yuanjun should also be considered.
But Zhang Yuanjun is a thief. When interviewed by reporters, he just said that he was very happy to be shortlisted. Whether he won the award or not, he had to respect the opinions of the judges.
He never mentioned that he would not attend the award ceremony, and the Golden Horse Organizing Committee asked him not to say anything.
A few days later, Zhang Yuanjun’s studio discovered that it had been compromised.
In recent days, there have been many reports on the Internet about Peng Yuyan, who was also nominated for the Best New Actor Award. This is normal. If you are nominated, you should show your face more and receive more announcements.
But in Peng Yuyan's draft, Zhang Yuanjun is mentioned in seven out of ten articles.
"Peng Yuyan and Zhang Yuanjun are both shortlisted. It remains to be seen who will win the best newcomer."
"Eddie Peng: I watched "Famous" and "Animal World" and liked them very much"
"Eddie Peng's agent: Mainland students appreciate Zhang Yuanjun the most"
"Eddie Peng: I want to play a double male lead with him and learn from him"
This is very jarring.
If such a draft was issued by Huang Xiaoming and Chen Kun, Zhang Yuanjun's studio would not think anything of it. After all, Huang and Chen also have solid achievements.
I am the number one niche student in Mainland China, and my two starring movies have a box office of over 150 million. How dare you come up to me and challenge me if you have any achievements?
Once you are shortlisted, just do your marketing well, and you have to attract others.
If the above is still within the realm of understanding even though I am unfamiliar with it, then the marketing in the next few days will start to go astray.
"Wang Jing: He is very hardworking and will be the next Zhang Yuanjun"
"The new generation of actors has another strong rival, and Zhang Yuanjun may not be able to secure his first position in the niche."
This is starting to get disgusting.
The key is that this kind of marketing is difficult to understand, but it does not mean that Zhang Yuanjun is happy to be criticized like this. So he was asked at an event, "You and Peng Yuyan were both shortlisted for the Golden Horse Best Newcomer. What do you think about your opponent?" Do you understand anything?"
Zhang Yuanjun said this: "I don't know much about him. I've only been to Wandao once and I don't know him."
The reporter was confused by Zhang Yuanjun's answer, but he still wanted to bring the topic to Peng Yuyan: "He said he wanted to learn from you." This reporter obviously came with a mission.
"He should be a few years older than me. He doesn't need to learn from me."
"Then do you think there are any similarities between the two of you?" How much does this reporter charge for bringing up the topic like this?
"The same thing?" Zhang Yuanjun really thought about it, and then said, "We are both men, right."
Zhang Yuanjun is not used to reporters who are paid to intentionally lead topics.
"Any questions? No problem, I'm going back."
Zhang Yuanjun's answer just now clearly showed that he had lost his patience. The reporter didn't want to ask any more questions and let him go.
Would such a reporter report this way?
Not really!
I used the power of editing to re-edit and splice what Zhang Yuanjun said in the interview at that time, so we had this draft:
"The reporter interviewed Zhang Yuanjun at the event. He expressed happiness that he was shortlisted for the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer. Regarding his opponent Peng Yuyan, he said that the two have many similarities. They are similar in age and need to learn from each other. Although the two did not know each other before, But I hope we can deepen our cooperation if there are opportunities in the future.”
This copywriting is of good quality!
Zhang Yuanjun's studio really has no good way to deal with this kind of marketing. The most common way is to irritate each other in the media and distance themselves from each other.
The publicity director of the studio has explained to the outside world more than once: "We just need to perform our own drama well and don't compare ourselves to others."
In the end, Xiao Zhao was forced to become anxious and said: "What we have to learn from are seniors like Ge You, Liang Jiahui, and Li Xuejian. We are still very young. Although we were shortlisted for the best newcomer, we know that our acting skills are not good enough. Yuan Jun I have returned to the drama stage to hone my acting skills. I hope everyone can understand."
This is like a slap in the face to the other party, touch you, touch you, my target is an old artist, and the best new artist nominees have their tails raised to the sky.
Seeing that Zhang Yuanjun's studio seemed to be serious, the other party gradually calmed down.
After all, he is the No. 1 young man in the Mainland and he is currently popular. If he is tied too much, he will easily arouse the other party's resentment and even attack him.
However, Zhang Yuanjun still wanted to meet Song Dai, and he thought of a way to make "Transcendence" and put the story on Hong Kong Island.
In this way, he will need the bank supervision agency to protect him.
Coincidentally, Song Dadai was still in the capital these days, so Zhang Yuanjun and Li Yang easily made an appointment with him.
Song Dai didn't say much after being criticized, but Yin Du's film continued to move forward.
Song Dai liked the story of "Transcendence" very much, but he also saw at a glance that it would be impossible for this film to be approved in the Mainland.
"We want to set the story on Hong Kong Island."
"Then your script basically needs to be redone." Song Dai said.
Hong Kong Island and the grassroots level in the Mainland are completely different environments. The script written by Zhang Yuanjun and Li Yang basically had to be repeated.
"If we redo it, we will do it again. Yuanjun and I can only do this one drama in the next year, so we have plenty of time."
Song Dai thought for a while and said, "I'll find a screenwriter in Hong Kong Island and you can work together. You two are mainlanders and have never lived in Hong Kong Island. The story you write will definitely not pass."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you."
The three of them had finally settled the matter. After coming out of Yindu's Beijing office, Li Yang sighed: "What a pity for Lao Fang."
He is talking about his friend Fang Li, who is also the producer of "Blind Mountain". He was banned from participating in any film and television works for "Apple" for a period of two years.
Zhang Yuanjun did not answer the question, but said: "I will trouble you, the director, later. You have to go to Hong Kong Island to live for a while and learn about the style."
"It's okay. In "Blind Mountain" and "Blind Shaft" I shot grassroots stories. This time I also experience city life and see what I can make of Hong Kong Island."
Li Yang is really impressed by this young man. He is so popular now and has such high commercial value. It can be said that he is making money every day, but he is still willing to take the initiative to produce and even act in literary films.
To put it bluntly, Zhang Yuanjun said: "I don't have such high ideals. I just want to act in something different. I can walk on two legs: commercial and literary. I also want to win the Best Actor trophy."
Li Yang didn't mind Zhang Yuanjun's utilitarianism at all: "That's right. Who doesn't want to win a prize?" (End of Chapter)
