Chapter 869 Christmas Eve
The movie premiered, and until the end credits were finished, the screen background changed to a still image of the premiere.
Jiang Yuan and others stood up from their seats and stood in front of the screen. The host who was invited in advance also appeared at this time, ready to host the event after the premiere.
In front of the screen, Jiang Yuan, Fu Yunshen and others looked at each other. Although they had watched the finished film, everyone was in a very confident state.
But after all, there is a saying that those who are involved are often confused. There are many films that many film directors think they have made very good works, but they do not gain a good reputation in the market.
Although Jiang Yuan and others still firmly believe that "Love Letter" does not belong to this category of work, they still want to hear the real feelings of the first batch of audiences who watched the movie on site.
The post-screening interaction was like a roadshow. The host first guided the audience to reveal some content related to the film, and then interviewed them to interact with them.
Because the people who came to the premiere that day were basically entertainers, or groups like film critics, bloggers, and media reporters.
Some people start thinking about what kind of review they will give while the movie is still playing.
Now that I've been cueed at this stage, I naturally have something to say.
"Director He Jing." The host looked around the audience and finally chose someone who was very familiar with Jiang Yuan to start this segment.
"This should be the first time that you have not worked with Director Jiang Yuan to complete a movie. What are your thoughts after watching it?" The host asked He Jing.
At this time, the on-site cameras and the audience's attention were also focused on He Jing.
He Jing was also ready to be cueed at any time and took the microphone from the staff.
The photographer also pointed his camera at He Jing, ready to record He Jing's speech.
“Actually, after watching this movie, I felt a little emotional.”
"On the one hand, the story itself really made me have a lot of emotional fluctuations. I thought about a lot of things, including some of my previous imaginations about love, etc."
"On the other hand, although I did not directly participate in the production of the film, this is Jiang Yuan's first work that he directed and acted in."
"From the filming process, to the completion of the film and the start of post-production, to the upcoming release, Jiang Yuan has been talking to me about the entire process, so I am very clear about the efforts that have been made to achieve each step."
"Now that I've watched the movie, I think I can give my evaluation. Although we didn't work together, judging from this work, Jiang Yuan has the talent to be a standout in the film industry. This is an excellent work."
He Jing picked up the microphone, expressed a little bit of his true thoughts, and praised the movie a little.
There was not much lengthy speech, and He Jing just made a point to the point. After speaking for a short while, he sat down again. Jiang Yuan looked at He Jing and exchanged glances.
After He Jing expressed his thoughts, the host quickly cue another artist on the scene to comment on the movie.
However, at a premiere like this, it is unlikely that overly harsh comments will appear, not to mention that the film was not badly made. For a while, the scene was filled with a lot of flattering praises.
Fortunately, this way of evaluation did not last too long. There were indeed some people who watched the movie seriously and expressed their own opinions during the speech session instead of just praising the film. This supported the post-screening interaction session.
The discussion after the premiere came to an end after many audience members had finished speaking.
Under the guidance of the host, Jiang Yuan and other main creators also said goodbye to the audience on the spot.
After the premiere, the media reporters and film and television bloggers who attended the event also released a lot of brief comments at the first opportunity.
Basically, it is all contained within one sentence, such as praising the movie for being good or the acting for being outstanding, etc.
This can be regarded as the first wave of word-of-mouth for the movie "Love Letter". At the same time, many bloggers who attended the premiere also announced the time when they would release the movie repo.
After the first premiere, Jiang Yuan and others did not end their schedule for the day.
Still riding in the same vehicle as when they came, the entire crew drove towards the address of Xingyuan Entertainment.
When leaving the scene, there were still many fans waiting in the square outside for Jiang Yuan and others to get off work, so the premiere ended in a relatively lively manner.
When I returned to Xingyuan Entertainment’s company, the main reason was to borrow the venue.
The offline premiere is over, and there are still some online connections to be completed. After all, there is not only one group of audiences participating that day.
The camera was set up and Jiang Yuan also appeared in the screen, constantly connecting with the audience on site.
Unlike the luxurious lineup in the audience seats at the premiere, the audience at the live event were just some relatively pure moviegoers and fans, most of whom participated in the event through some highly competitive niche channels released by the official.
The online interaction was much more fulfilling than Jiang Yuan had imagined.
Compared with the audience at the premiere, the questions raised by fans were more related to the movie itself.
It just so happened that Jiang Yuan and others were able to answer this part of the content relatively easily after completing the filming of the movie.
For a moment, the value of this post-screening connection increased a lot, and the interactive part seemed very interesting to watch.
After connecting to several premiere events in a row, Jiang Yuan and others finally completed their work for the day.
The premiere event of "Love Letter" came to an end, and Shang Yaner and others were also in a good mood. Seeing that it was getting late, everyone suggested finding a restaurant for a dinner to celebrate the complete success of the event.
On the way from the company to the restaurant, Jiang Yuan and Fu Yunshen saw many repos related to "Love Letter" on the Internet.
The earliest completed repos with the highest number of likes are basically from some well-known film review bloggers.
Indeed, I started writing the film review right after the premiere, and it was published before the premiere ended that day.
These bloggers, except for a few directors who are not so fond of this type of film, basically gave high praise.
On the way in the car, Jiang Yuan was also dragged by Fu Yunshen to see a lot of things.
The scores out of ten have basically reached nine points.
[Today I attended the premiere of "Love Letter" directed and acted by Jiang Yuan. Although I heard that there was an excellent original novel as a basis, I still didn't hold out much hope.
But after watching the movie, I was indeed surprised. Even someone like me who doesn't like this kind of movie can hardly say that it's not good. The details in all aspects are handled very well.】
Jiang Yuan read one of the reviews with He Jing, and it can be said that he gave a very high evaluation of the movie "Love Letter", which made both of them feel much happier when reading the film review.
"This is quite objective and quite good." Fu Yunshen looked at the article and nodded with satisfaction.
With the end of Jiang Yuan's online event, it also means that more viewers have watched the movie. Although the number of viewers is not large, some ordinary viewers can also see repos of watching the movie on the Internet in real time.
【I was a little tearful when I saw the end.】
[I would call it the best movie of the year.]
[Jiang Yuan and Shang Yaner acted so well together, and they fit the characters very well. I can only say that they directed and acted very well. ]
[We connected online after the screening. I hope Jiang Yuan can shoot more in the future. It is really brilliant! ]
【Best New Director of the Year! 】
[The combination of Jiang Yuan and Fu Yunshen is also very good, the pictures are very beautiful and full of artistic conception, you must go to the cinema to experience it. ]

Some brief reviews and recommendations also reassured the audience who were already expecting the film, allowing them to maintain their original expectations.
For some viewers who were bombarded with hot searches related to "Love Letter" that day, it was hard not to be interested in the movie after seeing such a direct repo.
Especially since the movie is released on Christmas Eve, there are indeed some couples who want to go on a date to watch a movie. Seeing that "Love Letter" is so popular, they immediately included it in their movie-watching list.
The final result on the premiere day was that the number of people who wanted to watch "Love Letter" soared again, and even formed a relatively large gap in this type of data compared with several movies in the same period.
Each promotional activity was carried out in accordance with the original expectations and achieved good results.
Some time before its official release, word-of-mouth for "Love Letter" was gradually released as preview roadshows unfolded.
Unlike in the beginning when one had to search deliberately to find the repo, the explosion of word-of-mouth has become a fact as soon as the preview ratings came out.
With excellent word-of-mouth and high popularity, "Love Letter" has also successfully secured a portion of the screening share after its release.
At least in the first two days of the release, the screening schedule was fully booked, which could be regarded as the only one in the schedule for that day.
Such a formation also successfully scared away some competitors.
For example, a movie that was originally scheduled to be released at the same time as "Love Letter" also decisively chose to withdraw after carefully analyzing the situation.
As a result, the number of competitors in the first week of release was reduced.
"The one that was able to pose a greater competition to us in the past two days was probably this one."
On the way to the last show of the first round of roadshows, Fu Yunshen also found all the movies that were about to be released and analyzed them carefully one by one.
Jiang Yuan took a look at the love movie that Fu Yunshen pointed out, and couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
For movies of the same type on the same track, the competition is naturally fierce.
Putting aside the competitors that were withdrawn from the schedule, there is only this love movie called "Nuan Xu", which can be considered to be one of the most competitive films of the same type.
Moreover, analyzing from the perspective of movie popularity, "Nuan Xu" is not inferior at all.
After all, the movie "Nuan Xu" is a new movie launched based on the TV series. It already has a considerable number of TV series viewers and a considerable audience.
This is also a movie that is not far behind the popular "Love Letter" which has received great reviews and is currently in the limelight.
And this is just the competitors in the same genre of movies.
As the festival is approaching, many movies have chosen to be released at this time.
In addition to the competing film "Nuan Xu", a considerable number of imported foreign films have also selected some subsequent theater schedules.
"From this perspective, the first day's box office performance is really quite important." Fu Yunshen made a simple analysis while studying other movies.
After all, the environment for movie releases during this Christmas period can be said to be surrounded by many enemies.
At present, all aspects of data of "Love Letter" still remain at a relatively leading level.
However, this cannot be used to judge the performance of the entire release cycle. If it flopped on the first day, it would most likely be a real flop.
But after this period of explosive word-of-mouth roadshows, Fu Yunshen's mentality has begun to become more and more stable. From being unsure about the quality of the film in the beginning, he has now been able to calmly accept all kinds of flattery.
The most important thing is that Fu Yunshen is very confident about the performance of the movie. It can be said that he has been looking forward to the day of its official release. He has no worries at all and is full of anticipation.
"Yes, it will be released soon." Jiang Yuan nodded and said.
"This will be the last show of our first round of roadshows." Fu Yunshen said in a daze as the car was driving.
"The first round of roadshows has ended, and the second round will probably have to wait until we return from Peninsula and Sakura." Jiang Yuan said.
"Yes, it seems that there is also an event similar to a premiere planned for us on the Peninsula."
As Fu Yunshen spoke, he also looked through some of the itineraries he had previously recorded.
In recent roadshows, the leading actors Jiang Yuan and Shang Yaner, as well as assistant director Fu Yunshen, were basically present.
After that, we went to the peninsula and cherry blossoms, and the lineup was basically the same.
“It’s a pity that Love Letter doesn’t have many screenings in these two countries on the Peninsula. I wonder if the situation will be better after the event.” Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but shook his head.
The popularity of the movie has indeed spread to other countries, but the arrangement of the screening is certainly not ideal.
Precisely because there are fewer screenings, fans from both countries rushed to grab tickets for the shows that have already been publicly sold.
In a short while, the central seats for some of the shows that had tickets sold were taken by fans, making it look very lively.
"It will be fine. I have confidence." Fu Yunshen said firmly.
The last roadshow of the day announced the end of the first round of previews, and the official release date, Christmas Eve, was quietly approaching.
