"Teacher Zhang, thank you for your hard work!"
The first promotional advertisement of Red Star Sports, as the chairman of the board, Wu Rongguang also attended the event in person.
The entire production process was supervised.
After all, as a newly established brand, spending two million to hire spokespersons every year is no small feat.
If the publicity effect cannot meet expectations, it will have an impact on the company's future development.
For this advertisement, Zhang Chu also made a special trip to Xiamen, the headquarters of Red Star Sports.
He didn't expect that just a few shots and a slogan would be so troublesome.
It took two full days of filming to finish.
"How does it feel? Is it different from filming a movie or TV series?"
Wang Jinghua also arrived and handed Zhang Chu a bottle of drink.
"This is it, domestic Coke."
This was chosen by Wang Jinghua from a large number of brands that sent her endorsement invitations.
Isn’t Zhang Chu unwilling to endorse foreign Coke brands?
Then just endorse your own Coke.
Tianfu brand was the real leader in the domestic carbonated beverage market back then. However, as foreign cola brands entered the domestic market, they were gradually marginalized because their publicity could not keep up.
When she received this endorsement invitation, Wang Jinghua was a little surprised, because in her impression, this brand had disappeared long ago, but she didn't expect that it was still alive.
In fact, there are still many old domestic brands like this, which are gradually declining because they cannot adapt to the changes in the market economy.
Zhang Chu unscrewed it and made a "chi" sound, and then smelled a faint smell of Chinese medicine.
Is this a drink or Chinese medicine?
Zhang Chu also drank foreign cola, and felt that the taste was completely different from this one.
"Does it feel different? I have already learned that this brand of cola is different from foreign cola. The biggest difference is that it does not contain caffeine."
Zhang Chu naturally didn't know what caffeine was.
But he knew about coffee.
A bitter soup that is difficult to swallow.
"To be precise, although Tianfu is also called Coke, it is actually a functional drink."
Still don't understand.
But it sounds like it should be good for the body.
"How about you drink for a while first?"
"OK!"
Well?
I'm kidding, I can't hear it.
Wang Jinghua was about to speak when he saw Zhang Chu staring behind her and turned around subconsciously.
"do not know?"
Zhang Chu shook his head.
Wang Jinghua has long been used to Zhang Chu's "ignorance".
"Gu Changwei is Zhang Yimou's classmate. Many of his films were shot by Gu Changwei. He was also the photographer of Chen Kaige's "Farewell My Concubine" and Jiang Wen's "Sunny Days."
Photographer?
"Why are you shooting commercials again?"
"What's new about this? Zhang Yimou was originally a photographer, but he also changed his career to become a director."
Wang Jinghua said and looked towards Gu Changwei again.
"Let's go over and get acquainted?"
Zhang Chu shook his head: "No."
He is now in a hurry to return to Xiangjiang, as "Hurricane Rescue" will start filming tomorrow.
Wang Jinghua didn't say anything more.
"What do you think of Tianfu's advertising endorsement?"
Zhang Chu thought for a while and said, "Let's talk over there! That's almost the next step."
When Coca-Cola wanted to invite Zhang Chu to be a spokesperson, he checked online. Unexpectedly, the annual domestic sales of a small drink could reach tens of billions.
Just thinking about how much money was made by Yang Yi made Zhang Chu feel unwilling.
There are too many things that Zhang Chu can't do. He can promote domestic products and earn endorsement fees, killing two birds with one stone.
"Okay, I'll contact them as soon as possible."
It's a pity that the two million US dollars in endorsement fees a year will definitely not be earned.
Later, Zhang Chu declined Wu Rongguang's banquet and returned to Xiangjiang with Xiao Ma that afternoon.
When Zhang Chu came to Xiamen this time, he also signed another agreement with Red Star Sports. As long as he appeared wearing Red Star Sports products in the new film "Hurricane Rescue", Red Star Sports would pay him an additional 1 million yuan.
It's too easy to make money as a star.
After arriving in Xiangjiang, Zhang Chu immediately went to meet Du Qifeng. In addition to being the leading actor in the drama, he also served as a martial arts instructor.
Some details of action design naturally need to be communicated with the director in advance.
Du Qifeng himself is also good at action scenes. When he was working at TVB, he also served as an action director.
His martial arts design style advocates extreme violence. When fighting, the actors' body movements are slightly exaggerated.
After Zhang Chu came to Xiangjiang, he specifically asked Xiao Ma to find Du Qifeng's previous works to learn more about them.
If working with other actors, Du Qifeng will definitely stick to his own style.
However, Zhang Chu is different.
Zhang Chu has real skills and is not an ordinary juggler.
Moreover, when Chen Lan invited him to direct this movie, she said that Zhang Chu is the core of this movie.
Originally, based on Du Qifeng's character, he would not have accepted the role at all, but because of Zhang Chu's relationship, he still nodded and agreed.
For no other reason than that, he just wanted to see with his own eyes how exciting Zhang Chu's real kung fu can be in the movie.
In particular, Zhang Chu's powerful destructive power previously displayed in the ring was too tempting for a director who advocates violent aesthetics.
After a brief exchange, both parties went to prepare separately.
Although it was not stated clearly, the two people who collaborated for the first time reached a tacit understanding very easily.
Zhang Chu is responsible for playing, and Du Qifeng is responsible for telling stories.
snort!
Seeing Fan Bingbing's fake face-shaking, Zhang Chu couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing laughing?"
Fan Bingbing tried her best to keep her angry expression, but judging from the twitching corners of her mouth, she must have had a hard time enduring it.
"When did you come?"
"Just arrived, what's wrong?"
Fan Bingbing didn't look at Zhang Chu, and his tone was cold.
"Okay, it was my fault for leaving without saying hello last time."
Zhang Chu took the initiative to go up the steps, and Fan Bingbing didn't hold back anymore and slipped down directly.
"It was your fault in the first place. You just left without saying a word."
Fan Bingbing said and threw the bag to Zhang Chu.
"Invite me to dinner and I will forgive you."
Zhang Chu looked at the time and saw that it was time for dinner.
"Okay, let's go!"
After Zhang Chu finished speaking, he called Xiao Ma. How could he not take his assistant with him when eating.
Seeing Fan Bingbing again, Xiao Ma sighed silently in her heart, and then with a bright smile on her face, she greeted her potential master.
The three of them found a restaurant outside. While eating, they actually heard someone talking about "The Legend of Shushan".
One of them believes that "The Legend of Shushan" is just shit that Xu Ke filmed for himself. The other person insists that "The Legend of Shushan" is an innovative milestone in the Chinese film industry, and said that "The Legend of Shushan" will be proven in the future. It's a great work.
Fan Bingbing seemed to find it interesting when he heard this: "What do you think?"
Zhang Chu didn't even raise his head, concentrating on the shrimp dumplings in front of him.
“I don’t judge shit.”
Well……
"You were involved anyway."
"Can't I regret it now?"
Ah!
This is quite new.
Even the movies I acted in felt like shit.
Zhang Chu knows that in the future there will definitely be many people like the person just now who will put "The Legend of Shushan" on the altar.
This is nothing new.
People are always like this, doing some unconventional things to show that they are smart.
"I watched it too, and I think it's pretty good."
"Do you still have time to pay attention to this? Have you read the script well? Have you mastered the role? Du Qifeng is a very strict person. If you wait until the movie starts, you will miss it. I can't help you."
Fan Bingbing said with a nonchalant expression: "Who wants your help? I have already mastered the role. Anyway, I just have to play it no matter how miserable it is!"
Although the summary is very sloppy, the general meaning is correct.
Fan Bingbing plays the younger sister of the male protagonist Xiao Yan. She was kidnapped by a human trafficking group while traveling to Southeast Asia with her classmates.
In the script, Xiao Li suffered inhuman torture while being imprisoned.
Indeed, as Fan Bingbing said, it can be as miserable as it is.
Fan Bingbing actually doesn't like this role. The only thing that makes her satisfied is to be able to cooperate with Zhang Chu again.
The three of them returned to the hotel after dinner and were about to enter the elevator when they happened to meet Cecilia Cheung who had just met Du Qifeng.
When she met Zhang Chu, Cecilia Cheung was also stunned. Her first impression of this mainland actor was not good.
In particular, Zhang Chu actually said that Xie Tingfeng was not a boy in front of the crew of "The Legend of Shushan", which embarrassed her and made her impression of Zhang Chu extremely bad.
But later Zhang Chu helped her and got her out of the predicament. Logically speaking, she was very grateful to Zhang Chu.
Thinking about it, Cecilia Cheung still showed a smile: "Hello, we meet again."
hehe!
Zhang Chu also laughed, but his smile was meaningful.
"Yes! We meet again!"
You still owe me 5 million.
It's been more than half a year, when will it be returned?
Probably guessing what Zhang Chu was thinking, Zhang Bozhi immediately turned cold again, with a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.
He lowered his head and walked away in a hurry.
"You're quite familiar with her."
As Fan Bingbing spoke, he turned to look at Zhang Chu, as if he wanted to see some clues.
"Of course, I'm familiar with it. I'm her creditor."
Creditor?
What the hell?
"She...owes you money?"
nonsense!
5 million!
That's all my hard-earned money.
It was fun to lend it out, but it would be difficult to get it back.
etc!
Don't those two people think that they don't have to pay back the money?
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing Zhang Chu's expression change, Fan Bingbing asked curiously.
"Debt collection!"
No matter who it is, the money owed to me must be repaid.
Even Ding Xiu remembers everything he did back then.
The next day, the crew of "Hurricane Rescue" started filming on Lantau Island in Hong Kong.
The preliminary publicity work has already started in front of the venue, so the opening ceremony attracted many local media in Xiangjiang.
As the male protagonist of a Hong Kong film for the first time, Zhang Chu naturally received great attention.
But what people are more interested in is the "Shushan Biography" that has already hit the streets.
