This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 864 You Don’t Even Have a Panda
Chen Guanxi got married and Hao Yun had a scandal, but it did not affect Jay Chou's album release.

He even added insult to injury.

Jay Chou: @Edison Chen Guanxi is married. Friends who have stopped being fans, please take a look and support my 9th original album “Capricorn”.

Jay Chou: @Hao Yun, since you two adopted pandas, can’t you adopt a few albums from me?

It’s a crude marketing method, but it’s magically effective.

Everyone loves to watch this kind of love-hate relationship between brothers, especially the love-hate relationship between celebrities in the entertainment industry.

Hao Yun and Chen Guanxi also naturally fought back.

Chen Guanxi hit back at “single dog”, and Hao Yun hit back at “you don’t even have a panda”.

However, there was a news report the next day saying that Jay Chou went to the panda base and adopted a giant panda.

After the adoption procedures were completed, he also posted pictures.

Jay Chou: Let me introduce to you, this is my panda – Capricorn.

Mist grass!

I learned it by myself.

Not only Hao Yun, everyone knows that Jay Chou is promoting his new album.

But I didn't expect him to spend so much money.

Whether it is an album, a film or TV series, or even some business collaboration, marketing is required.

There is conventional marketing and there is creative marketing.

Hype is the latter.

Some look downright awkward, while others seem like strokes of genius.

Adopt a panda and give the panda an album name.

Most people really can’t remember it.

Moreover, most people cannot afford to invest so much money.

It is considered very good for a small singer to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars from an album. Even a more famous singer can only make a few million.

Take out one million to adopt a panda?
After spending a million on marketing but not seeing that much return, no one would want to do business at a loss.

Jay Chou has no problem with that.

He spent one million and collaborated with Hao Yun. The marketing popularity he created could easily make his money back.

This is what is called the rich always get richer and the poor always get poorer.

You help me market my movie and I help you market your album. For Hao Yun and others, it is a mutually beneficial thing.

However, all actions came to a halt on October 10th.

Xie Jin passed away.

He arrived in Shangyu in the evening of the 17th and was originally scheduled to attend the centenary celebration of his alma mater, Chunhui Middle School, the next morning.

He seemed to have drunk some alcohol that night and was found dead in the hotel the next morning.

Hao Yun and Xie Jin didn't communicate much, but they had met quite a few times.

I will give New Year gifts whenever I have the chance during festivals.

And in name only, Hao Yun is Xie Jin's disciple's grandson.

This is really not a good time to sing and dance.

Moreover, Xie Jin's death has also become a hot topic, and further hype at this time would be seen as a form of self-deception.

Hao Yun posted a heavy mourning article on Weibo.

Expressed condolences to the old senior.

Then we asked Hei Dou Media to send a few people with relevant experience to help with the funeral arrangements.

Then came the memorial service on the 26th.

"Granny Xu, I'm so sad! You can call me if you have any questions."

Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi were both wearing black suits and left their cell phone numbers.

He didn't say too many high-sounding words and came very low-key.

But it gave great comfort to the family members.

"Your name is Hao Yun, right? Thank you." Grandma Xu said gratefully.

Their family was full of old and weak people, and there was no one who could come forward to take care of the funeral.

Although relatives and old friends also took care of it, there were too many people and too many eyes, so many things became a mess.

Fortunately, a few people came to the door and said they were hired by Jiang Wen and Hao Yun.

They were involved from beginning to end.

That’s why today’s memorial service, although there are a lot of people, at least doesn’t look chaotic at all.

Contribute people and money...

Having done this, we can truly say that we have done our best.

The most important thing is that they don’t want anything.

Hao Yun went through the ceremony and left without saying anything else.

The curtain fell on a generation of film masters.

Hao Yun and Jiang Wen had a small gathering in Shencheng.

"You know, this person was fine a few days ago, how come he suddenly disappeared?" Jiang Wen sighed.

Xie Jin is his mentor. "Furong Town" directed by Xie Jin was the second film that Jiang Wen participated in, and he won the Best Actor Award at the 10th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Award for this film.

In the film "Sunny Days" directed by Jiang Wen later, there were still some traces of Director Xie's "secret" techniques.

Both of them are directors with strong personalities. Although they have many disagreements, he still felt a little distraught when he heard the news of Xie Jin's death.

"You're old..." Hao Yun didn't know how to comfort her.

Moreover, he didn't think Jiang Wen needed comfort, as Jiang Wen was a very free and easy person.

"The last time we talked, he was still preaching to me. I really hate him preaching because he didn't do a lot of the things he preached." Jiang Wen was drinking.

An Xiaoxi filled it up obediently.

She felt like a daughter-in-law and a junior at this time.

"What to talk about?" Hao Yun was not very curious, but he was a good person to talk to.

Maybe Jiang Wen himself doesn't realize that he is in a very depressed state now.

It doesn't necessarily mean that the feelings are very deep, it's just that someone who once had a great influence on me is suddenly gone forever.

That kind of confused loss.

"He said that we need both content and entertainment, but if it's all entertainment, people will get bored and want some content. If it's all content, people will get bored and want some entertainment. So it's like rowing a boat. You need to paddle one oar on the left and one on the right to row the boat straight."

Jiang Wen said this as he assumed a rowing pose.

Click left, click right.

"What he said makes a lot of sense." This is indeed Jiang Wen's biggest problem, and it is where Jiang Wen cannot become Zhang Yimou.

"That's all bullshit!" Jiang Wen laughed.

If Jiang Wen becomes Zhang Yimou, then he is no longer Jiang Wen.

The always arrogant Jiang Wen once said that he only admired three directors: Xie Jin, Xie Fei and Jiang Wen.

There is no Zhang Yimou in it.

"There's no one left who would say such bullshit to you." Hao Yun clinked glasses with him.

"You really know how to stab someone in the back, Mr. An. Does he usually talk to you like this?" Jiang Wen changed the subject.

He was not one to dwell on sorrow.

Besides, he wasn't that sad.

Many times, grief does not burst out all at once.

I only rewatch old movies, watch the familiar scenes, and think about the scenes when they were filmed many years ago.

Only when the year is coming to an end and I pack up to go see the old guy, I suddenly find that the old guy is gone.

Only then will you shed tears.

"Not bad." An Xiaoxi looked at Hao Yun with a sweet smile, her happiness beyond words.

"By the way, Hao Yun, when did you fall in love with Mr. An?"

Jiang Wen asked curiously.

I don’t know when An Xiaoxi’s nickname “Mr. An” spread from Heidou Media. Anyway, now the whole network knows that An Xiaoxi’s nickname is Mr. An.

Fans also recognize this title.

Just like Jay Chou is called Jay Chou.

As for Hao Yun, he is neither called Mr. Hao nor Mr. Hao. People in the underworld generally call him Hao Dog.

"Ahem..." Hao Yun was speechless.

Isn't this topic changing a bit too quickly?

However, when he turned around, he found that An Xiaoxi was staring at him intently, and seemed to be very interested in this topic.

Although they have been dating for more than half a year, they have never discussed who fell in love with whom first or when they first felt their heart beat.

"As an elder, why are you curious about the emotional problems of the younger generation? This is disrespectful to the elderly!" Hao Yun scolded.

"Oh, I see." Jiang Wen laughed.

"What do you understand?" An Xiaoxi was puzzled. She looked at Hao Yun and Jiang Wen with confused eyes.

"Eat yours." Hao Yun picked up some food for An Xiaoxi.

Fuck, how dare you say that to me? You are 15 years older than Zhou Yun, and you are an old cow eating young grass.

This was a good change of topic, at least the sad atmosphere was gone.

We also talked about the follow-up production of "Let the Bullets Fly" and had to work out a schedule.

There will definitely be no problem with subsequent production.

Although Jiang Wen did not waste too much film, he personally supervised the subsequent editing and even asked people to go back and reshoot several shots.

When it comes to movies, he has always been willing to have nothing rather than something of poor quality.

Completely different from Hao Yun.

As for the soundtrack, since Hao Yun did not provide him with a new soundtrack, and he also felt that the soundtrack of "The Sun Also Rises" was indeed very suitable for "Let the Bullets Fly", he chose to reuse it.

"Will it be released next year?" Hao Yun didn't even ask about this year's Spring Festival release date.

It's obvious that it's absolutely impossible.
