Huayu: Hard fight against Zhang Weiping at the beginning

Chapter 274 Premiere PK
On July 7, Star Entertainment announced the premiere date of "Crazy Stone".

Almost at the same time, "Seven Swords" also announced its premiere date, which was also July 7.

The competitive tone is obvious and the atmosphere is tense.

This is a fight to the death.

The media loved this the most and approached Director Xu Ke for another interview.

But since that interview, Xu Ke no longer accepted interviews, and Xingchen Entertainment also remained silent on the matter, making it difficult to understand what these two companies are doing.

But at the premiere, everyone is definitely trying to compete with each other.

But how do you compare premieres? Of course, you compare the grandeur and the number of stars in the show.

In Xingchen Entertainment Company, those who had some connections were calling to recruit people, and the first person Zhang Chen called was Han Sanping.

Han Sanping was silent for a few seconds after listening to Zhang Chen's narration, and finally refused: "I won't go. It will have a bad influence. China Film is one of the distributors of "Seven Swords". Although it is not the main distributor, but only a cooperator, it is still a distributor. At the same time, we also have a share in "Stone", so it is not appropriate for me to appear anywhere..."

Zhang Chen had no objection, as long as the Third Master could refrain from helping either side.

Then he called other people, and Fat Fan definitely stood on his side and said he would definitely attend the premiere.

Chang Jihong and Jiang Wenli both said that there was no problem, and Chang Jihong also promised to bring some artists to show their support.

Something went wrong with Wang Jinghua.

She herself said that she would come to Zhang Chen's side to show her support, but the big Hong Kong names under him chose to go to "Seven Swords".

It is understandable. The director of "Seven Swords" is Xu Ke, and the actors include Leon Lai, Zhen Zidan, and Charlie Young, all of whom are backbone figures in the Hong Kong circle. It is normal for them to make such a choice.

And even though Wang Jinghua is a big agent, she has no control over these big names.

Zhang Chen called Director Chen again. Director Chen did not say whether he would go or not. Instead, he asked, "What happened between you and the Wang brothers?"

"Well, there was something fishy a while ago..." Zhang Chen didn't elaborate. If Director Chen wanted to know, he could just ask around and find out.

The other end was silent for a moment before saying, "I'm asking you because the Wang brothers suddenly invited me to the Seven Swords, but I didn't agree. But I felt very uncomfortable being caught in the middle, so I could only stay home on the pretext of being sick."

Chen Daoming is a member of the Beijing circle and is an old acquaintance of the Wang brothers.

But this kind of thing annoyed him the most, so he simply didn't go to anyone's house and stayed at home in peace and quiet.

Huang Xiaoming also encountered the same problem. He didn't dare to answer Zhang Da Huzi's call just now, and now he didn't dare to answer Zhang Chen's call either.

If he hadn't joined Huayi, he would not have given face to the Wang brothers, but he couldn't ignore Zhang Da Huzi. Although "The Return of the Condor Heroes" had been completed, Zhang Da Huzi revealed to him that there was "The Deer and the Cauldron" to come, and Huang Xiaoming was still thinking about the role of Wei Xiaobao.

But he didn't want to offend Zhang Chen either.

He is the male lead in "Painted Skin". If he doesn't go, this male lead role might be gone.

Huang Xiaoming was conflicted. He knew very well that this premiere was just a matter of taking sides. He was a very good person and wanted to learn from Chen Daoming and not go to either side, but he was not Chen Daoming.

Chen Daoming can do this because he has reached such a high position that no one can do anything to him if he doesn't go.

But if he did the same, he would end up offending both sides.

After thinking for a long time, Huang Xiaoming finally decided to bet on Zhang Chen and called him: "Director Zhang, I will definitely be there for the premiere tomorrow~"

Huang Xiaoming had just hung up the phone when Zhang Guoli called.

"Zhang Chen, I have some bad news. Xiao Gang may not come to the premiere..."

Zhang Chen had a premonition, but he thought Feng Xiaogang would at most not help either side. Unexpectedly, Zhang Guoli's next words shattered this fantasy.

"He might go to Seven Swords and be with the Wang brothers..."

Zhang Chen said "oh", it seems that he is ready to completely break up. It would be a lie to say that he is not angry.

Not to mention the relationship between the two, Feng Xiaogang did have a role in "Stone". It would have been fine if he didn't support his own movie at the premiere, but he went to his rival's side. This is blatantly disgusting.

"Okay, Uncle Guoli, I understand. Will you come when the time comes?"

"Of course, this is my movie, of course I will go, and I will also invite some friends to go and show my support..."

Premiere

This time the premiere was not held at the Beijing Exhibition Center, but at the Haidian Theater.

There were many stars at the scene, and it was obvious that everyone tried their best.

The red carpet had been set up two weeks ago, and the entertainment reporters were talking about it. The host was Liu Yiwei.

The red carpet session begins~
Stars passed through the red carpet one after another, attracting flashes of light~
Fan Binbin~
Huang Xiaoming~
Zhou Gongzi~
Zhang Guoli~
Jiang Wenli~
Francis Ng~
Lau Ching Wan
Zeng Li~
……

Many famous artists came. The big names walked alone, while those with average fame walked together.

Wang Jinghua also brought some people with him, but they were not big names, as all the big names had gone to "Seven Swords".

Liang Jiahui did not come. He has a good relationship with Xu Ke and they have worked together on "New Dragon Inn", so he chose the same strategy as Chen Daoming and simply did not go to either place.

Zeng Li brought along her good friends, Ma Yili and Mei Ting, to help in some small way.

Huang Xiaoming walked the red carpet with Zhou Gongzi.

It seems that Wu Zhenyu's popularity in Hong Kong is not very good, and only one person, Andy Lau, supports him.

Flash lights flash, interviews begin in the interview area.

The red carpet session was over and everyone entered the venue.

The stars took their seats and the media were ready before Zhang Chen stepped onto the stage.

He looked around and raised the microphone: "As you all know, our premiere ceremony of Xingchen Entertainment has always been different from other companies. We will watch the film first and then interact after watching it."

It has always been the tradition of Star Entertainment to show the entire film at the premiere. For other premieres, they usually show some movie clips during the interactive session, which makes people feel like they have seen the premiere but also feel like they haven't seen it.

But Xingchen Entertainment is different, it always shows complete films.

The lights dimmed and the movie began.

The Haidian Theater, which had been a little noisy just now, became quiet, and everyone was staring at the big screen.

In the back row of the theater, Ning Hao secretly observed the reactions of the people in the room. Seeing that everyone was focused, he felt extremely nervous.

Xing Aina, who was standing next to him, felt the strength coming from Ning Hao's hand. Knowing that he was nervous, she squeezed his hand to encourage him.

Ning Hao nodded and continued to observe the guests' reactions.

He has watched this movie dozens of times, and he thinks he has polished it to perfection.

That part makes people laugh, that part is the foreshadowing, even with his eyes closed he can know it clearly just by listening to the sound.

Fortunately, judging by everyone’s reactions, it’s not bad.

Everyone laughed when they should laugh, and was surprised when they should be surprised.

This is the right reaction.
