Chapter 2169 Superstars gather
Although Chen Kangjie obediently accompanied his family on the first and second day of the Lunar New Year, he went shopping, etc., Chen Kangjie was not idle. As long as he got free, he kept calling.
For the premiere of "Heart of Dragons", both Feiyang Entertainment and Miramax have been busy all the time, and many things require Chen Kangjie to nod or help.
Take renting the Great Hall of the People as an example. It is not ten years later. If Chen Kangjie had not entrusted his relationship with him, even if Feiyang Entertainment came forward, it would be difficult to succeed.
In addition, it is now during the holidays, and many units have no one to work, but there is someone to do things. What should I do? It requires coordination.
In this process, someone provided great help, Zhao Gang, deputy director of the Propaganda Department.
Zhao Gang has been in the Propaganda Department for many years. He has actually been looking for opportunities to show off, but because he does not have the support of heavyweights and does not have so many suitable positions, he has always been on the Diaoyutai.
Like Zhao Gang's current qualifications and levels, if he is released, the 90% possibility is that he is the provincial party secretary. If he is released, he is not the provincial party secretary, it would be a bit derogatory.
But there are only about 30 provincial party secretaries in the country, and they are truly banished officials. The location of a certain place has not been completely vacant, so I don’t know how many eyes are staring at it. There are several top leaders of central ministries and commissions who don’t want to take up the position, and there are several governors who don’t want to go with the flow. They all want to, so Zhao Gang has been stuck all the time.
Of course, Zhao Gang, who is close to retirement age, does not have an advantage in age. He is out and retires at most at one term, which is also something that many people need to consider.
Although Zhao Gang's background is not particularly deep, the news is still quite well-informed. He probably knew that Chen Qigang was going to serve as the governor of Gannan Province, so when Chen Kangjie called him for his help, he was quite enthusiastic and active.
The cultural propaganda office is originally under the supervision of the Propaganda Department, so it is legitimate to operate it, let alone Chen Kangjie's business. Unless someone doesn't open his eyes, no one will jump out and sing the opposite tune.
Zhao Gang's son Zhao Hui served as the secretary of the municipal party committee in Nanzhou. I won't talk about his position because of Chen Kangjie's favor. When Chen Qigang goes, he will be Zhao Hui's immediate boss. With this alone, Zhao Gang has to make great efforts.
When Zhao Hui returned to Beijing for the New Year, Zhao Gang had already explained to his son. When Chen Qigang passed by, he would immediately surrender. There was no need to hesitate at all.
In fact, there is no way to use Zhao Gang's advice to help me. Zhao Hui may see it clearly than he is now.
In two years, Zhao Gang will retire, and by then, Zhao Hui will lose his biggest backer. At this time, he is looking for backers everywhere. With Chen Qigang to rely on, of course he must hold on to it.
When Zhao Gang was the Minister of State, Chen Qigang was a small cadre. Now, Zhao Gang has become a ministerial-level official, and Chen Qigang is on par with him. This kind of promotion speed is not something that ordinary people can do.
Zhao Hui's abacus was very clear. He wanted to go up now. When it came to the deputy provincial level, he needed an opportunity, and someone would also need to recommend and speak for him. Otherwise, it would be quite possible that he would spend a few more years on the department-level ladder.
During this period, the media's work was relatively idle, and the party and government departments had housing prices, and there were no major policies or personnel arrangements. Basically, what everyone reported was nothing more than the lively atmosphere of the New Year, which was a harmonious atmosphere of the whole world. Such news materials were randomly captured across the country. Many reporters stationed in Beijing also returned one after another.
However, when they learned that Chen Kangjie's "Heart of Dragon" was about to premiere in the Great Hall of the People and the time was determined, the reporters once again picked up their work weapons and embarked on the journey of grabbing news.
Even the foreign media reporters stationed in Beijing did not go back, but also attracted more foreign media. For a time, reporters from all walks of life gathered in the capital, and everyone was waiting to report on the grand occasion of the premiere of "Dragon Heart".
In order to make the topic persistent, the crew's main creators, except Chen Kangjie, also went to the capital. When they were interviewed by various reporters, they were constantly revealing some information in a targeted manner, including the filming process, including the filming episodes, such as Chen Long's injury, etc.
In short, we should not let those reporters feel that they are nothing to do, and at the same time increase the publicity and effectiveness of the movie.
In addition to the crew's revelations, the news focus is also on who will attend the premiere this time.
Some people say that the central government will congratulate on the spot, setting an unprecedented precedent. Some people say that almost half of the big names in the domestic entertainment industry will appear, and even have a list of whom and who will be with whom. Even, there will be many people in Hollywood to support them, including Swarzenegger, Tom Hanks, Little Lee, Winslet, Curtis, Cameron, Jordan, Sean Connery, etc., who have cooperated or have not cooperated with Chen Kangjie.
In short, many people seem to feel that the specifications of this premiere are no less than those of an international award ceremony.
At the beginning, they were just speculations. Gradually, with the revelations of celebrities and the land on the capital, rumors were being confirmed. So, the reporters became even more excited and felt that the trip was worth it.
Don’t think that entertainment news will only be limited to the entertainment media field. In fact, when the importance of entertainment news reaches a certain level, it will become social news and even current affairs news. Just like the Oscars’ award ceremony, just like the Nobel Prize award ceremony, a news that belongs to entertainment news and technology, often current affairs news or commentary news will be mentioned and reported.
When this event accumulates the most famous international and domestic stars, its influence will exceed the general range.
Chen Kangjie only stayed at home until the second day of the Lunar New Year. He left home to go to the capital on the night of the second day of the Lunar New Year. Perhaps it was related to the dispute on New Year's Eve, so Chen Jing and Chen Mei did not ask to go together.
The reason why Chen Kangjie left was because he had a purpose. There were no people who could support him. But he, the master, never showed up. That was not suitable.
The reason why he made the event so big was that he did not have a clear idea of the achievements of this movie. Chen Kangjie is indeed a proud and proud person, but market factors also need to be considered, otherwise it would become arrogant and arrogant.
The release time of this movie is actually not so good. It is neither Christmas season nor the late winter vacation in China. In terms of time, it is not very advantageous.
In addition, this movie is a completely new movie, script, actor, filming, and production, which is brand new to Chen Kangjie. He doesn't want to be traced like "plagiarized" Titanic or real lies before, and there is no real box office reference like them.
To put it bluntly, if the box office of this movie is bleak, then it would be a lie to say that Chen Kangjie's fame and reputation will not be affected. We can say that there is no permanent general on the battlefield, but no one does not want to be an permanent general. It's that simple.
Whether for commercial interests, for his own reputation, and for the new concepts and values he tried to convey through this movie, Chen Kangjie must ensure its success. As for the means of publicity, it can be used flexibly.
Therefore, Chen Kangjie planned to make this premiere grand and dazzling.
He had already invited many people through Miramax Company in his name since he planned to arrange the premiere in the Great Hall of the People.
Chen Kangjie's name is also considered to be big enough. Although the invitation letter was sent by Miramax, the name was him. Except for some celebrities who received the invitation letter, who were really out of schedule or other matters, more than 90% of them agreed readily. Even some people who did not receive the invitation letter also took the initiative to find Jon Gordon, and of course they could not refuse these enthusiastic friends in the entertainment industry.
As for the domestic celebrity part, it is the responsibility of Feiyang Entertainment Company. Both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions are involved, and their enthusiasm is higher. Feiyang Entertainment Company and Chen Long only plan to invite twenty people, but the number of people is greatly exceeded. Even if they are famous or not, they hope to have an opportunity to participate.
Don’t think that attending Chen Kangjie’s event is entirely because they are giving Chen Kangjie’s face. In fact, Chen Kangjie is also giving them face. Supporting Chen Kangjie is also good for enhancing his popularity.
Of course, it’s not anyone who wants to participate. Chen Kangjie needs to look at every list. For those who are not friendly to China or are disgusted with political tendencies, Chen Kangjie will ask the people below to find reasons to refuse. He doesn’t want someone to eat his meal and end up smashing his blame. Chen Kangjie will not do that kind of thing.
Art does not distinguish between national boundaries, but artists divide between national boundaries. Art is like life, and it will inevitably become a part of politics. Chen Kangjie dares not say that he is well-off, but his position will definitely not shift in the core values, core interests and national dignity of the country.
As for some foreign journalists saying that there will be rumors that senior central officials will attend the event, whether it is the crew or the publicity department, they neither deny nor acknowledge it. Whether during the interview or in private, no one will respond to this news.
Because Chen Kangjie himself has not yet concluded whether to invite big names to participate in the event, he has hesitation and doubts. It is not that he can't invite people, but that the main theme of this movie. If a big person attends again, it will cause some people, especially some people in the West.
As soon as I arrived in Beijing on the evening of the second day of the lunar month, Chen Kangjie convened a meeting of relevant personnel at Mengting Hotel to learn about the situation.
