This actor is punished

Zhou Ming, the director, has no money left

So at the stage of publicity, they are very embarrassed, they have no money to find channels to publicize!

Chapter 18 Self Propaganda

Movies produced by some wealthy and wealthy families, those movies with a luxurious lineup, have been continuously promoted in various channels from the time they were filmed to the release, and they have been burned to ashes by various audiences long before the release We all know each other.

But what many people don't know is that the films made by more small directors and small companies are like a sea of ​​sand and sand. These works are generally unknown.

They don't have that much money to promote themselves, and they don't have that much money to invite themselves to lead roles.

Therefore, every year, many films with a box office of tens of thousands or even thousands of dollars are cut in half. Originally, there was only a slight screening rate, and the number of theaters that went online was extremely limited. Seeing that they could not make money, the theaters were still in the screening period. It was immediately removed from the shelves.

Now, this is also an annoyance for everyone on the crew of "Big Owl".

They have the same starting point as this kind of film.

But they don't want them to have the same ending.

They want to see a little return for their efforts, and they want to bring some comfort to their hard work in a ravine for a month.

Therefore, publicity is a must.

However, if it is like other films, push them on the official accounts with millions of followers, or invite big Vs to write soft articles on Weibo, or even buy hot searches and so on.

None of these paths are acceptable to them...

These promotion methods cost a lot of money. It may cost hundreds of thousands to hire a big V to write soft articles. This figure is really not outrageous at all.

Not to mention Weibo hot search and other promotional positions, if you really want to post to the extent that it attracts attention and is effective, you can't get it if you don't have a seven-figure figure.

Therefore, the only means of promotion they can think of is very simple.

Mobilize the insiders of the crew!

Mobilize all the crew members to promote it yourself!

As for... how to promote this by yourself.

Very simple.

From the second day on, the director Zhou Ming had just returned home and had not had time to rest for a day. After sending the film to editing and post-production, he went directly to print piles of leaflets, and the sun ran to the curb. , Distributed leaflets to passing battery cars and pedestrians.

How miserable do you think this is?How magical?

A director, holding a stack of leaflets, is not promoting restaurants and Putian hospitals, but promoting his own movies.

Other members of the production team were also requested by Zhou Ming.

Of course, there is no hard and fast rule, it's just a request from Zhou Ming.

But... the hearts of the people in this crew are very unified.

We don't have so many entanglements of various interest groups brought about by the involvement of capital, and our original intentions are very pure.

It can be said that none of the crew of "Giant Owl" does not want this film to be successful.

They have worked hard for so long.

Therefore, all the crew took to the streets to distribute leaflets.

The same goes for Wu Zui. On the second day after returning home, he and some crew members who were also in Shanghai hugged a lot of flyers and distributed them in various road sections and shopping malls.

Wu Zui also brought Pei Jianing with him.

Pei Jianing didn't say anything, and agreed without hesitation. So, carrying small school bags and leaflets, the two came to the mall to distribute leaflets.

You can imagine this picture.

"Hello, let's take a look. This is a movie we shot. It will be released on National Day soon. It has a story about anti-drugs and is very positive."

"Hello, let's learn about the movie."

"Hello, this is the movie I'm starring in."

Every time someone passed by, Wu Zui and Pei Jianing would hand out a flyer and then make an introduction.

Although most people get it copiously and throw it into the trash can soon, but there are still a small number of people who are interested in keeping it and taking a look.

Although among these people, there may not be one out of ten who will actually go to see it.

But at the very least, this method is still somewhat effective.

That's how they advertise.

In the next few days, Wu Zui and the others will start distributing leaflets on a regular basis.

Of course, there is another way to promote it...

Send various small advertisements on the Internet and promote them yourself.

Wu Zui logged into all his social accounts, including but not limited to Weibo, Tieba, Xiaohongshu, various communities, Bilibili, Doukuai, Moments, and Qzone.

There are even various group chats.

For example, group chats such as [Love each other as a family], and [Classmates].

For example, now, Wu Zui just posted a small advertisement to his college classmates.

Management Class 4-Wu Zui: "Everyone, I participated in the filming of the movie "Big Owl" which I starred in, and it has been officially completed. The story of the anti-drug frontline is extremely positive, and it can popularize all kinds of anti-drug knowledge. It is very suitable for the family to watch. If you are interested, please support it. I am sincerely grateful for this.”

Management Class 4 - Wu Zui: "And, at that time, I will give movie tickets to all students who are interested in watching."

As the leading actor, Wu Zui will definitely get some tickets.

So, after all, they are all classmates. If these people and Wu Zui's family and friends want to go see, Wu Zui can give them tickets.

Soon, there was a reaction from the classmate group.

Management Class 4 - Liao Jun: "Wow, Wu Zui is going to make a movie?? Is it so awesome? Damn, my classmates are going to have a star? Definitely watch it!"

Management Class 4 - Huang Jianqi: "???? I'm super, awesome!!!"

Management Class 4-Yang Xueqi: "Huh? Are you going to make a movie? Then I will take my boyfriend to see the acting skills of my old classmates, but Guan invites us all to dinner!"

.....

Most of the students are still very face-saving.

After all, Wu Zui has been a classmate for so many years, Wu Zui has never offended anyone, and he is easy to talk to on weekdays. Although apart from a few roommates, no other classmates have a particularly good relationship with him, but everyone still maintains a very harmonious relationship. .

Therefore, Wu Zui's propaganda really had an effect.

While some students were shocked and did not expect it, they all expressed that they would definitely join in the show.

But reality will always surprise you when things go well.

For example, now, there is a person who Wu Zui dislikes very much.

Management Class 4 - Lin Yi: "Hey, the big star has finished filming? The adaptation of "Rural Sow Care Manual" has finished filming? Why did the big star delete me? This is because I forgot my old classmates after I became famous?"

Wu Zui didn't intend to endure him this time, after all, human patience has a limit.

Management Class 4 - Wu Zui: "Lin Yi, it's almost done. If belittling others can elevate yourself, or make you feel very fulfilled, then you should find something to do."

Management Class 4 - Lin Yi: "Why are you so impatient to make a few jokes? Can't make a joke? I'm doing this for your own good, young people. It's good to have dreams and love dreams, but it's not good to be ambitious. I still have to be honest, do these things every day, I have never heard of your so-called movie, and you still make movies in the mountains? Who would believe it? What kind of movie can live in such a bad way? You bluff Baby? It's not that I don't believe you, it's that you really didn't think about it before you pretended to be serious, and you still like Xiaoxue, I feel ashamed for Xiaoxue."

The group that was lively just now became quiet in an instant, and no one came out to interfere with this matter.

But soon, this silence was interrupted.

(I don’t know if you have ever encountered such a person in reality.)

Chapter 19 National Day file, coming!

Management Class 4 - Chen Xiaoxue: "You should be able to do it, Lin Yi, you are really enough."

It's just that this person who interrupted the silence made Wu Zui somewhat unexpected.

Management Class 4-Chen Xiaoxue: "I have nothing to do with you now, and you are not mine anymore. I hope you don't use my name for what you do. This will make you look like a failure and a lowly person." You know? We are all old classmates, can you speak with some brains? Don't you think your behavior makes you look like a bad person? All right, let's stop here. "

.....

And this Chen Xiaoxue was the girl Wu Zui liked when he was an ignorant student, but he didn't choose him in the end.

But now Wu Zui has long forgotten those things.

After all, it all happened when I was a student, when I was ignorant, the restless youth at that time can always bring some memories to the future.

As for people not choosing him, that is their freedom. After all, liking someone is innocent, and there is nothing wrong with people not liking you. Whoever likes someone is innocent.

And it's been so long, even Chen Xiaoxue has come out to talk about Lin Yi like this.

There are only some people who seem to be immersed in the past, and then talk about the old sesame seeds and rotten millet every day.

Now he's being pissed off.

Wu Zui wanted to laugh a little.

This behavior is really like a clown.

Soon, Chen Xiaoxue @ him.

Management Class 4-Chen Xiaoxue: "@管理4队-Wu Zui: It's okay, don't worry about him, he likes to say whatever he likes, you can just be an air person, this person has always had some problems with his brain .”

Management Class 4 - Wu Zui: "That's not true, I still say the same thing, if the old classmates want to watch, I can give you tickets, because I really need everyone's support hahahaha, after all, our crew is real They don’t have the money to do publicity.”

Lin Yi stopped talking.

The group became lively again.

It's just that everyone was very clever and ignored the episode that happened just now, as if they didn't see it, and no one mentioned it.

Afterwards, Wu Zui looked at those students who were determined to go, and counted the number.

He went to chat with Zhou Ming privately and asked for a certain amount of extra tickets.

Zhou Ming naturally agreed without thinking about it.

And it was the premiere ticket!

Of course, to Wu Zui's surprise, Chen Xiaoxue also went to see it.

But he just smiled, he didn't feel anything anymore, he just said some polite words very politely.

Then, that's the end of the hype.

In the world of adults, anyone can meet, and Wu Zui didn't take it to heart.

In the following time, he distributed leaflets with other members of the film crew day after day, and Pei Jianing also mobilized the students in his school.

Another small episode was that after Wu Zui and Pei Jianing talked about what happened in the group that day, Pei Jianing seemed a little unhappy for some reason.

"Huh? Really? The girl I liked before? That's great."

Pei Jianing held the milk tea, the cup was almost squeezed out of shape.

Today's Pei Jianing, although she still has short hair and looks heroic, looks a little different from usual.

She put on a forest-style dress, the length of which reached above her knees, revealing half of her long legs. She also put on a pair of white silk half-tube stockings, and small black leather shoes on her little feet.

There was also some light makeup on her pretty face.

It belongs to the kind of makeup that is pink and tender, but it really shows the youthful and playful feeling like a deer.

If Wu Zui didn't know her well, knowing that she was a tank soldier in military uniform not long ago, he might have been tricked into thinking that she was a girl next door with no strength to restrain her.

Don't look at her looking harmless to humans and animals now, just like a little rabbit, she seems to be struggling to even open a bottle cap.

But in fact, she can lift Wu Zui's Tianling cover and Boling cover.

Pei Jianing looked at Wu Zui, biting the straw, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

Wu Zui shuddered, feeling like the word 'Danger' floated on his forehead.

"Why do you care about this?"

Wu Zui was puzzled.

But he still explained: "Well, it's all in the past. When you were young and youthful, who didn't feel a little throbbing, didn't you?"

"Yes, I have."

Pei Jianing sighed faintly.
