Everyone laughed and laughed, and Ouyang Mili looked at Li Youhu again: "By the way, Youhu, we have discussed the movie on your side, and we will buy tickets together in a few days to help you out."

Li Youhu immediately said: "I still don't want it, it's the same as cheating."

"How is it cheating? We also want to watch this movie."

Li Youhu thought for a while and said, "If you really want to watch it, why don't you attend the premiere tomorrow?"

"Premiere, can I get a ticket?"

"I'll call and ask later. It should be fine. We're not a blockbuster like "Independence Day", but no movie fans came to grab tickets."

Ouyang Mili looked contemptuous: "Tsk, it's as if I'm pitiful. We want to make a movie but we can't make it."

"Then you talk to the boss, he will definitely agree."

"Tch, the last time we saw the boss was in China, it's been more than two months."

"Tsk tsk, it sounds like a disgruntled woman."

Ouyang Mili twisted his slender and soft body slightly, and finally leaned on Su Fengnian beside him, with a resentful expression on his face: "In the first place, we are all grieving wives..."

Su Fengnian turned away Ouyang Mili, who had a small ending: "Go, go, just be a grieving wife yourself, don't drag us."

"Okay," Li Youhu smoothed things over, "Then what have you been doing lately?"

"Temporary rest," Ouyang Mili said, "By the way, in China, the Spring Festival Gala invited us to participate in this year's program, and chose the "Plucking Wei"."

Li Youhu heard that there was something in Ouyang Mili's obvious words: "Then what?"

"I've been on tour for more than half a year, and I'm very tired, and I heard that the Spring Festival Gala will be rehearsed for several months, so everyone really doesn't want to go."

Li Youhu subconsciously said: "That's the Spring Festival Gala."

After speaking, he reacted again.

Speaking of myself, if I was still a member of the former Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, it would definitely be a great honor to be able to participate in the Spring Festival Gala.

Now, it really doesn't matter.

After all, they have to be busy for several months, rehearsing repeatedly, and still can't make much money. As for becoming famous by virtue of the Spring Festival Gala, the girls of the Guofeng Art Troupe are already very famous, and they are still world-class.

Thinking of this, Li Youhu asked again: "What's the matter?"

Ouyang Mili said: "The boss agreed for us, what else can we do? However, we can go directly to the final rehearsal without being screened, and everyone is already very familiar with that dance, and they can finish it with their eyes closed. The other program groups are much easier."

Wei Canchai suddenly said: "Actually, the boss is doing it for everyone's benefit. It will be useful in the future if he can show his face at the Spring Festival Gala."

These words made the atmosphere in the living room slightly stagnant.

Girls can't help thinking about the future.

At the beginning, everyone only signed the contract for 5 years. Although it has only passed a little over a year now, any girl who is a little bit sensible understands that the current life cannot last forever.

Thinking about it this way, everyone looked at Li Youhu with a little envy.

Li Youhu is now settled.

And they, even if the contract expires in the future and can be renewed once, or even twice or three times, they will always leave in the future.

Unknowingly, they have gotten used to the current life that is so rich that they are like princesses. It is a bit hard for the girls to imagine how they will live without these things in the future.

Stared at by a group of eyes, Li Youhu also quickly understood everyone's thoughts, subconsciously diverted the conflict, and looked at Wei Cancha: "Since you think it is useful, why don't you perform for everyone, talk to the boss, he will definitely agree , the Spring Festival Gala should also accept the replacement of "Caiwei" with "Jianjia"?"

Wei Can sent: "I'm very busy, I have my own business."

Li Youhu was puzzled: "Huh?"

Gu Yaoyao helped to reveal the answer: "Zancha is practicing sword dance recently. The boss wrote a song when he was in China two months ago, and it needs to be accompanied by dance."

"The "Human Meeting"?"

"It's another song. It's also very nice, with a similar style. The boss said, well, it's all Chinese style, but this one is about Concubine Yu. The boss also said that in the future, an album will be made, which will be all Chinese style."

"What, Ji?"

"Farewell My Concubine, that Concubine Yu."

"Oh," Li Youhu said excitedly, "Sing it to me?"

Gu Yaoyao shook her head: "I can't sing well, let Zancha come, she can do everything."

"I can't sing well either," Wei Canchai refused, and said, "Twelve Chai and the others were in charge of recording the song. You know, they are not only good at musical instruments, but most of them have also learned vocal music and opera. They sing very well. , Let us feel that singing along is a waste, you can go to Long Island to listen to it live after you are busy."

Hearing what Wei Cancha said, Li Youhu became even more curious.

It's a pity that after Wei Cancha refused, the girls formed a tacit understanding and kept it a secret from her. They didn't even want to hum a few words, so they had to give up.

At the end of the evening dinner, the girls stayed. The villa is very spacious, and there are more than six or seven girls more than enough.

Early the next morning, Li Youhu was busy with the premiere of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in the evening.

To be precise, since it premiered once in Cannes in May, this time it should be the North American premiere at a flagship theater affiliated with Daenerys Entertainment's Oden Cinemas in the midtown section of Broadway.

It took more than two hours to discuss the process of taking photos and interviews, wearing dresses and jewelry, and even just putting on makeup in the afternoon. It was not until [-] o'clock in the afternoon that Li Youhu arrived at the destination in a courtesy car and met other main creators of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Show up together.

Even if it was just a low-budget film with an investment of 1500 million US dollars, the premiere of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was equally lively.

In addition to the main creators of the film, two of the most well-known Chinese movie stars in Hollywood, Jack Cheng and Jeter Lee, came to join them. In addition, there were Martin Scorsese, Robert D. Nero and a series of big and small filmmakers helped out, which is also considered star-studded.

After the communication last night, a group of girls from the Guofeng Art Troupe also got tickets. After all, it was considered an entertainment hotspot in the past half a year, and they were temporarily arranged to walk the red carpet. Even if they were not as expensive as Li Youhu CK's custom-made dress, just by virtue of its beautiful appearance and the name of the "Guofeng Art Troupe", attracted a burst of intensive flashes from the reporters on the scene who did not spare the film.

six o'clock.

The premiere starts on time.

After all, it is the second premiere, and the core is for publicity. Therefore, the flagship theater of Oden Cinemas used for film screenings has a 300-seat hall, and reporters from all over North America invited more than 100 people. Expensive.

Of course, compared to putting on TV commercials, the cost-effectiveness of the premiere ceremony plus the media's comprehensive promotion strategy is very high.

The problem is that the general second- and third-tier film companies can't gather more than 100 media companies if they want to follow the same pattern. Because even the other big seven companies in Hollywood would not be able to gather so many reporters easily if it was only because of a small film with an investment of 1500 million.

Inside the theater.

The main creators interacted with the guests briefly, and the film playback began soon.

Unlike the Chinese original soundtrack with French subtitles at the Cannes premiere, this time the English-dubbed version was played.

No way, North American audiences notoriously dislike subtitles.

The well-crafted dubbed version is also the foundation of Daenerys Entertainment.

In recent years, the introduction of foreign language films has been frequently successful. One of the reasons is that Daenerys Entertainment has worked hard on dubbing. The company has a high-quality translation and dubbing department responsible for this part of the work. Compared with other companies, Especially those small film producers, because of insufficient dubbing ability, they often screw up a film that is very good overseas.

On the big screen, after the title title of the label, a picture scroll of oriental martial arts slowly opened.

Chapter 1148 Where is the good?

From being selected last year to now, it has been more than a year since Li Youhu participated in this debut work. For the girls of the Guofeng Art Troupe, it feels like it has come out after a long wait.

Because of Li Youhu's luck, Wei Canchai and the seven girls in the screening hall felt somewhat complicated.

I hope this Chinese-language film from the motherland will be a success, but it’s inevitable that I don’t want it to be too successful. With these thoughts in mind, the girls’ viewing attitudes are inevitably more contradictory than those of other audiences, and there is some scrutiny in their expectations. .

However, when the first wonderful fighting scene of the film ended, the audience spontaneously applauded in the screening hall, and suddenly felt a little proud again.

The mentality also changed again.

In any case, it is something to be proud of for a Chinese film to be recognized overseas.What's more, they have received a lot of similar applause during the tour in the past half a year.

Then it is relatively pure viewing.

Follow the narrated stories, shuttle between the deep house, the Gobi, the grassland, and the bamboo sea, the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, love and hatred.

During the period, the audience burst into applause again and again, which made all the people involved in the film feel confident. Ella Deutschman, the president of Gaomen Films, who came to attend the premiere in person, also specifically explained his Assistant, remember that tomorrow's publicity draft must emphasize the on-site feedback of the audience's spontaneous applause.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

At the end of the two-hour screening, amidst the last burst of applause from the audience, the main creator began to take the stage for interviews. Even Martin Scorsese, who came to join us because of favors, asked for the microphone and asked Ang Lee How was the scene of the main character's duel in the bamboo sea filmed, whether CG special effects were used, etc.

Scorsese was quite surprised when he learned that the only "special effect" was to erase the wires. He expressed on the scene that he hoped to make an appointment to have an in-depth discussion with Ang Lee, and Ang Lee agreed.

This conversation was naturally recorded by many media at the scene.

Because the interactive scene was too enthusiastic, the exchange time scheduled for half an hour was delayed for more than 40 minutes, and the premiere ceremony finally ended.

Then came the after party officially arranged by Daenerys.

This time, Li Youhu was unable to ask for invitation letters for the seven friends. Of course she wanted to attend, and she took the time to say goodbye. The girls regretted this and had to leave.

Instead of going to Li Youhu's residence, he returned to the apartment building that Simon intended to buy for them in Midtown.

Because it is in the rest period, there are some other girls on the Manhattan side.

The seven girls did not disturb others, but gathered in Wei Canchai's apartment in a tacit understanding, turned on the TV, and found snacks.

The topic is still about the movie I just watched.

"To be honest, I think it's great, the scenery is so beautiful, and the action scenes are also very exciting, but overall, I don't feel too much," Su Fengnian, who was holding a bag of potato chips, spoke first, and did not forget to add: "I don't mean to be sour, it really feels like this."

"Your feeling is correct, and I feel the same way." Ouyang Mili, who was holding a fruit plate next to him, said, and then looked at Wei Cancha: "Zancha, what do you think?"

Wei Can can only sit on the carpet without grabbing the sofa again, and he looked at Ouyang Mili, whose eye sockets are on his favorite single sofa on weekdays, and said: "This shows that your aesthetic level is too low, and you are only suitable for watching popcorn." Movie."

"Tsk, then tell us, what's so good about it?"

Wei Canchai arrogantly ignored him.

For some reason, Yu Xuanniao, who doesn't have a strong sense of presence in this small circle, said weakly: "Actually, Feng Nian just said that the scenery is beautiful and the action scenes are exciting. Isn't this the advantage of this movie? Ordinary popcorn movies, people tend to watch them after they’ve seen them, and it’s hard to leave any impression on people.”
