Chapter 34: The movie became popular before it was released (seeking a monthly ticket)
Later, someone in Xiangjiang used the words "beautiful as Mount Wutai" to describe the beauty of actress Lan Jieying.
The so-called Wutai Mountain is not a real mountain, but refers to a small section of the broadcast channel where five TV stations in Hong Kong, including TVB, were gathered.
At this time, the entrance of TVB headquarters was crowded with reporters eagerly looking forward to it, always staring at Zhao Yazhi's figure.
In order to get the news as soon as possible, they refused the invitation to enter and insisted on guarding the door.
After Zhao Yazhi got married, there were several scandals, but in the end they were like a gust of wind, and they did not settle down. Instead, she became more and more popular. But this time her husband was wrong, it was her ex-husband, who personally came forward to accuse
She cheated on her, but it was the worst ever.
Fang Yihua stood by the window and looked down at the crowd of reporters below, his brows furrowed and worried.
A silver BMW drove slowly over.
"It's Ah Zhi! Sir Xu is here too!"
After seeing the people inside clearly through the car window, the reporters immediately went crazy and swarmed in, holding long guns and cannons, blocking the way like a zombie siege.
"Sister, Huang Hanwei accused you of cheating on Xu Jiajun during your marriage. Do you have anything to say?"
"It is rumored that you recently starred in a small-budget movie invested by Sir Xu, and you both appeared at the same time today. Does this mean that you are in a relationship?"
"Sir Xu, how do you and Sister Zhi know each other..."
As soon as the car stopped, reporters were bombarded with all kinds of questions.
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, otherwise how can we answer the question?" Xu Jiajun opened the car window a crack and said loudly. As for getting off the car, it is impossible to get off. It is easier to get off than to get on.
Upon hearing this, the reporters gradually became quiet.
Zhao Yazhi opened the car window, and her delicate face looked slightly tired. She was tortured hard by Xu Jiajun last night, and was beaten hard in the morning. It would be strange for her not to be tired.
"Thank you all for your concern for me." Zhao Yazhi's voice was a little hoarse when she spoke, blaming Xu Jiajun for being too tall. However, the reporters at the scene thought that this was because she had cried, and pity arose in their hearts.
Zhao Yazhi is an actor after all. Her eyes turned red as soon as she opened her mouth. She wiped her tears and said with a hoarse voice: "I divorced Huang Hanwei because he was too suspicious and forced me to leave my beloved acting career.
And hitting me has nothing to do with Jun."
"Arjun is just my godbrother. He wrote a script called "Happy Ghost" and asked me to guest star. The script was very well written and combined ghost drama with comedy. The format was very innovative, so I agreed to star."
"Because Ajun often comes to ask me about filming matters, Huang Hanwei uses this to frame our pure relationship. This is unacceptable to me!"
When she mentioned the words "pure relationship", she couldn't help but blush, but she happened to be in a storm at this time, and she should have been emotional, so it was reasonable to blush.
"Everyone, I, Xu Jiajun, hate evil so much that I cannot tolerate evil in my eyes. I am strict with others and even stricter with myself. How could I do such a shameless thing? What evidence do some people have other than empty words?"
After Zhao Yazhi’s performance, it’s Xu Jiajun’s turn. With his face that resembles a dragon, his upright temperament, and his plausible words, coupled with his handling style, it’s easy to gain the trust of others.
"The pure will be pure by themselves, and the turbid will be turbid by themselves. I don't want to explain too much, and I don't bother to explain. I just hope that everyone will not be used by people with malicious intentions and become someone else's gun."
"Sister, so you separated your husband and wife just because you were filming Sir Xu's movie, don't you regret it?" A reporter asked. Well, there is no doubt that it is the navy arranged by Xu Jiajun. Ask La Jiang
The little brother who wants it will kill someone after the interview.
Zhao Yazhi pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head and said firmly: "No, Ah Jun's drama is definitely the best comedy I have ever seen. It would be a lifelong regret not to be able to star in it. I am not exaggerating. It will be released soon."
, you will know when you go and see it.”
These words directly aroused everyone's curiosity.
"Okay, that's it. I hope everyone can be merciful. My sister is not feeling well, so I will send her back to rest first." Xu Jiajun closed the window and the car started slowly. The reporter was still asking questions, and took pictures while backing up.
Completely disappeared.
………………
The headlines of various newspapers the next day were today's short interview, which was still arousing discussion.
"Azhi Divorced Because of Unbearable Domestic Violence?"
"Happy Ghost, a drama in which Ah Zhi is willing to break up in order to star in a guest role."
Compared with the gossip about Zhao Yazhi and Xu Jiajun, everyone began to wonder what kind of drama could make Zhao Yazhi so praised, and he did not regret the divorce.
The popularity of "Happy Ghost" has begun to rise.
"Ghost Elf." Shao Yifu shook his head, put down the newspaper, and Fang Yihua said: "Contact A Zhi and let "Happy Ghost" be released in Shaw Brothers."
He could tell at a glance that Zhao Yazhi and Xu Jiajun were singing a double act to promote "Happy Ghost", and he was even more sure that the two of them had an affair, otherwise Zhao Yazhi would not have supported "Happy Ghost" to such an extent.
After all, this drama has already become popular before it is released. If it is not good to watch, Zhao Yazhi will feel uncomfortable...
"I have contacted you a long time ago, but Ah Zhi said that Xu Jiajun has already negotiated with another family." Fang Yihua was a little unhappy when she mentioned this, because she also believed that the "other family" Zhao Yazhi mentioned must be Jiahe, and then said: "If we
Give better conditions..."
"Impossible." Shao Yifu interrupted her before she finished speaking, folded the newspaper and put it aside, saying unequivocally: "Women are emotional, but they are blinded by male lust. Do you really think that this script was written by an amateur?
How good can a movie made with a bunch of newcomers be? Kaixin Gui is not worthy of raising the share, and Xu Jiajun is even less worthy. Let’s just forget about it.”
It was because everyone knew about the popularity of "Happy Ghost" that he wanted to hit three shots if he could. If he could succeed, it would be best. If he didn't, forget it. There was no need to be persistent.
On the other side, the boss of Jiahe Film Company, Zou Wenhuai, and the second-in-command, He Guanshang, were also talking about this matter.
"Guan Chang, what do you think about talking to Xu Jiajun about putting this drama on Golden Harvest?" Zou Wenhuai pointed to the title of the newspaper and looked at He Guan Chang and asked.
"Zhao Yazhi is from TVB, and she was also on the Shaw Brothers studio during the filming. If nothing else, she must have reached an agreement with Shaw Brothers, not to mention that the main creator of this movie looks like a provocateur." He Guanchang shook his head, and then started talking again.
A twist: "It's true that we can learn from this kind of propaganda method. It's cheap and easy to use."
Both Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest thought that "Happy Ghost" would be released in the other theater, so they did not contact Hui Jiajun. Of course, the fundamental reason was that they did not pay attention to "Happy Ghost". After all, just looking at the lineup of this movie, you would know that they would be disappointed.
Street possibilities are great.
What is the combination of a ghost show and comedy? In their opinion, this is just a gimmick, one element of horror and the other element of comedy. Don’t the two of them look alike?
What kind of money can such a movie have? At most, it will deceive the audience once, and the box office will plummet. It is not good for reputation, and it cannot make a lot of money. And the two companies have no shortage of movies, so they are dispensable.
Xu Jiajun is a policeman, what does he know about movies?
In the eyes of Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers, they are only rivals, their strong rivals for the Spring Festival box office.
They didn't take Xu Jiajun seriously at all. No matter how popular "Happy Ghost" is now, it will be revealed once it's released and won't threaten them.
That year, they had their hands in their pockets.
I don’t know what an opponent is.
At this time, Lisheng Cinemas, which Xu Jiajun was looking for, took the initiative to send someone to contact him to seek cooperation.
The problem Lei Juekun faces now is that there are no people in the cinema. Without people, it will suffer losses every day.
"Happy Ghost" became a hit even before it was released, and it had already built up enough suspense to attract people, so he planned to try his luck and see how good the film was.
As long as the quality is not outrageous, Lisheng Cinemas will have to find a way to cooperate and screen it.
After all, the Spring Festival is coming soon, and other theaters are busy preparing. Only Lai Sheng is half-dead, and the whole movie has to be done to cheer up the atmosphere.
If you don’t expect to make money, you just lose money and make money.
