At this moment, Li Donglai's feelings were extremely complicated.
He has always believed that Lin Rui's talent in composing poetry is unparalleled in the world.
But not long ago, the inscription on the white wall of Shuangxing Scenic Area allowed him to appreciate Lin Rui's talent in poetry and prose for the first time.
But at that time, he still felt that Lin Rui was not as good at composing poems as he was at writing lyrics.
Until this moment, Li Donglai had to admit it.
Lin Rui.
A master of both poetry and prose!
In his opinion, this Mid-Autumn Festival poem already deserves the title of the best Mid-Autumn Festival poem in the world!
No!
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it surpasses all others, past and present!
Just how many good things is hidden in this kid's head?
certainly.
Li Donglai also had things to complain about in the entire poem.
For example, this line: "Raising a cup to ask the blue sky?"
Li Donglai really wanted to say a few words.
Have you ever drunk alcohol, kid?
How much have you drunk?
Can you hold your liquor?
Should it be measured in taels or kilograms?
And this is how you dare to raise a cup to question the heavens?
Sweet wine?
He Zhongting is a heavy drinker, but he doesn't have the guts of you!
However, Li Donglai quickly came to terms with it.
Lin Rui has never even had a girlfriend, yet he can write poems that are at the pinnacle of romance, and not just once or twice.
There is nothing wrong with this simple line, "Raising a cup to ask the blue sky."
With a slight tremor in his fingers, Li Donglai picked up the wine glass, his eyes flashing.
He felt that this Mid-Autumn Festival poem, which had resonated throughout history, should be presented in a unique and unconventional way.
Simply posting on Weibo or writing in front of a large audience is too vulgar.
"Lin Rui, I have an idea."
Suddenly, Li Donglai's eyes lit up, and an idea came to him.
…
at the same time.
Yuezhou.
Today, the major cinemas in Yuezhou are bustling with activity.
Most of the production companies in Yuezhou are working together to release films during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The film and television themes are also very broad.
Modern, ancient, romance, ghosts fighting, daydreaming, people scaring each other.
In short, it's a complete mess, with everything imaginable!
certainly.
By daring to schedule releases during the Mid-Autumn Festival, creating a competition with a hellish level of difficulty, it's clear that major production companies are extremely confident in their film and television works.
Previously, Chen Jiaxuan had also wanted to invite Lin Rui to Yuezhou to attend the premiere.
However, Lin Rui explicitly rejected it.
The reason is simple.
He had to attend the Washington State Poetry Competition and couldn't get away, so he had to give up.
Although Lin Rui was not present, Tianrui, as a partner, still sent a representative.
Zheng Jing, Luo Qi, and Sun Youlin.
As for Xiao Jingyu, Zheng Jiayou, Wen Wenxuan and Chi Tianju.
I've been staying in Yuezhou lately.
They, of course, also attended the premiere.
Sun Youlin's appearance was quite eye-catching, after all, he was one of the Four Little Heavenly Kings of Yuezhou in the past.
However, the media present at the scene barely reported on Sun Youlin.
It's not because I'm worried about a certain bigwig in the Yuezhou entertainment industry.
Instead, it was clear that Sun Youlin had already moved his career to Xiazhou, and before he received a celebrity rating, any reports or related information would be quickly blocked.
In that case, wouldn't it be better to leave the limited coverage space to others?
For example, the main character in the film, Yu Nanxin, who is known as one of the four little actresses in the film and television industry, as well as several supporting actors who are expected to become first-tier actors.
Gu Gang, the Best Actor in Xiazhou, was also neglected.
However, considering his cameo appearance in "The Girl's Prayer" and the fact that his role was related to the main character, this is not surprising.
Therefore, I also received a few brief interviews.
"Thank you all so much for coming to the premiere."
"I believe that this film will leave you with unforgettable memories."
Chen Jiaxuan presided over the entire opening ceremony.
He was very confident about this work.
And this confidence came from Lin Rui!
Nowadays, youth-themed films are too homogenous.
Despite the film's large budget, most of the funds were spent on the cast.
After all, the competition within the film and television industry in Yuezhou is too fierce.
Take Yu Nanxin for example.
His salary alone was nearly 100 million.
She alone accounted for almost a quarter of the film's budget.
As for the salaries of those second-tier actors, the total amount was enough to make Chen Jiaxuan wince.
After all, all the major film production companies in Yuezhou want to seize the Mid-Autumn Festival market.
In Yuezhou, there are only so many talented actors.
With too many wolves and too little meat, the only option is a price war.
Otherwise, with such a large budget, why would they travel all the way to Xiazhou to ask Gu Gang to make a cameo appearance?
Even so, he still had to use his late grandfather's influence!
so.
The budget sounds generous, but in reality, it's already stretched thin.
certainly.
Chen Jiaxuan was indeed very confident in his work, but deep down, he was initially a little anxious and worried about losing it.
He was extremely nervous, especially when he invited the heads of major cinema chains to preview the film.
At the time, he felt that signing 30% of Yuezhou's cinema chain was a victory!
But reality gave him a cold shower.
When the movie was a third of the way through, many of the invited theater executives were no longer focused on the film, but rather distracted, chatting amongst themselves.
Seeing this, Chen Jiaxuan's heart sank to the bottom.
He could almost picture what would happen next: some theater executives would make excuses to go to the restroom and then never return.
Just as the situation was gradually getting out of control.
Suddenly, a flashback scene featuring Gu Gang quelled the commotion in the room.
What attracted this group of theater executives was not Gu Gang, the movie star from Xiazhou, but a scene from the film.
The filming location is a relatively well-known village in Yuezhou.
Wanjie Village.
It was a faded, memoir-like scene.
A man carrying a pickaxe on his shoulder, day and night, hammers away at the steps leading down the mountain.
The child beside them gradually grew up.
Finally, the children left the deep mountains and entered the bustling modern city.
His wife has always been by his side, unwavering for decades, her hair turning white and her face full of wrinkles.
Meanwhile, the film also features beautiful songs.
The group of invited theater executives fell completely silent, their eyes flickering slightly.
A small number of people had a faint mist forming in their eyes.
Finally, they sat quietly until the party ended.
And at the end of the film, the full song was played.
They remembered the name of the song.
It's called "The Ladder to Heaven".
They also saw the song's author.
His name is Fusheng.
A life adrift in Xiazhou!
Fu Sheng, who rose to the rank of a third-tier celebrity right from his debut!
At that moment, all the theater executives present realized the business opportunity!
Even today, Chen Jiaxuan still feels lingering fear.
His office was packed with people that day!
They were forced to move the cooperation matters to the company's main conference room for discussion.
After the place was deserted, Chen Jiaxuan was dumbfounded.
He only discovered after organizing everything that all the cinema chains that had been invited had signed contracts!
Signing rate.
100%!
This matter.
Not long after, it shocked the entertainment industry in Yuezhou.
However, since it involves trade secrets, neither the major cinema chains nor Chen Jiaxuan have leaked a single word to the outside world.
6:40 PM.
Many movie fans from various cinemas gathered in the lobby, waiting to enter.
"What's the deal with this 'The Girl's Prayer'? I see it's been shown in over thirty theaters."
"I'm also quite curious. Among the actors, the only one I can find appealing is Yu Nanxin."
"This matter was all over the internet a while ago, but they kept quiet about it."
"The promotional clips released before were just so-so, the theme was old-fashioned and there were no highlights."
"Forget it, let's buy a ticket first, go in and take a look. If it's not good, we'll give it a bad review on Guazi.com later."
…
Released during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Not everyone chooses to watch "The Girl's Prayer".
After all, there are too many top-tier trending topics waiting for their favor.
However, the recent online discussions and the unconventional screening schedules by major cinemas have generated immense buzz for this youth-themed film.
Naturally, this also attracted the interest of many casual observers.
As the clock strikes seven.
The movie has started.
