Chapter 144 Dilemma

Time flies, and soon the 18th in mid-July. "Seven Swords" officially held a grand premiere party at the International Convention and Exhibition Center in Xiang City, Hunan Province. All the main actors gathered together, such as directors Xu Ke, Fu Luo, Li Ming, Donnie Yen, Lu Yi, Yang Caini, Jin So-yeon, Zhang Jingchu, etc., all attended one by one.

The hosts of the party were He Jiong and Yang Lan. This was a party that was not innovative and boring as a whole. Sun Honglei went on stage to sing two songs and danced a break dance, which made Fu Luo in the audience really laugh.

By the time the premiere party ended, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. Fu Luo, who wanted to go back to the hotel to rest immediately, was pulled out for a midnight snack by He Jiong, saying that he had finally come back to Xiang City, and the other party had to do his best to be a landlord.

In short, every time Fu Luo saw He Jiong, he was eating and drinking together, and he was basically at Huang Lei's home. Because he was close to him, He Jiong would call Fu Luo every time he came to the capital and asked him to go over and eat and drink together.

Of course, as long as Gao Yuanyuan is at home, Fu Luo will basically refuse. Only when his girlfriend is not at home will he occasionally steal something and don’t want to cook by himself, so he will go to Huang Lei’s house to eat and drink. After several times, the three of them became "good foodies".

Finally, he stayed in Xiang City for one night, and Fu Luo returned to the capital the next day.

Then I found that I suddenly felt idle, as if I had nothing to do. Of course, no one came to him to film, but they were all TV series that had never even heard of their names, etc., which really made people look at them at one more time.

Fu Luo also guessed some reasons for this. It may be considered that he did it himself, because he built a studio and did not sign any other company. As for the current entertainment industry, it is still a chaotic era and has no structure.

Basically, every film and television company has its own contracted artists. Whenever they want to shoot a new work, they naturally think of their own artists, not other outsiders.

So people like Fu Luo will naturally be treated coldly. Even if he just won a Cannes actor, he still cannot defeat the word "interest" at a critical moment.

If you want to solve the current dilemma, there is no way. The first one is naturally to find a capable company to join us. I believe that it is easier to have the identity of a movie hero.

The second one is to rely on yourself. Since no one is looking for him to film, he can only be an investor and film himself. However, this method requires a certain amount of financial strength. In terms of Fu Luo's current financial resources, it may still be a little thin.

Just when he was a little helpless, an unexpected joy from heaven suddenly hit Fu Luo's head. When he received a call from Guan Qingqing, he asked several times without much confidence. When he finally confirmed that it was true, he jumped up excitedly. This situation was really rare for him to do.

It seems that it’s no big deal. Someone is coming to give him money because Chopard wants to find him as the spokesperson for Asia. By the way, Chopard is not the big musician that has long since died, but a Swiss watch brand.

Although Chopard may not be among the top ten famous watches in the world, there is no problem in ranking in the top 20. At the same time, Chopard is also a sponsor of the Cannes Film Festival. Even the Palme d'Or trophy is provided by Chopard. Fu Luo estimated that it may be because of this reason that the other party came to him as the spokesperson for Asia.

The next day, at a pre-appointed location, Fu Luo met the person in charge of Chopard Asia, a slightly bald white middle-aged man named Berman.

"Fu, I'm very happy to see you. I admire the words you said on the podium of the Cannes Film Festival. They have very universal values ​​and are so great! And in Europe, there are many people who admire you like me. It is also a great honor for Chopard to find you to endorse this time."

As soon as he sat down, Berman praised Fu Luo in a straightforward manner.

Not to mention, he really didn't tell lies. Last time Fu Luo won the Cannes Best Actor last time, but because of his words on stage, most media rarely gave up their doubts about him. He even used this passage as a title to make Fu Luo go directly to the headlines in Europe, so many people knew and knew him, the special Cannes Best Actor.

There happened to be a senior Chopin who also expressed his appreciation for Fu Luo, and finally he had the idea of ​​finding Fu Luo to serve as Chopard's Asia spokesperson.

Of course, it is just an idea. After all, admiring someone can only be considered an introduction at most. In the end, you have to use various aspects to make a final conclusion.

Calculate that the Cannes Film Festival has ended for almost two months. The reason why Chopard came to him now is that during this period they have been conducting a feasibility assessment report on Fu Luo's endorsement. It was not until the word "全" was finally obtained that Berman came to find Fu Luo on behalf of Chopard.

"Thank you, I'm also honored to work with Chopard!"

Facing Berman, Fu Luo did not say too humbly that he was ashamed of not being able to take it. In front of these Westerners, you must be confident, otherwise they would not think that you are being modest, but that you would consider that you are not capable.

The final negotiation went very smoothly. The Asian Happy-sport series black wrists that Fu Luo endorsed for a year, and the endorsement fee was 1 million US dollars, which was 8 million to convert into RMB, which was higher than the endorsement fee of US$2 in two years. This international brand is indeed much more generous.

The efficiency is also very fast. Chopard happened to have a new product launch conference in Beijing the next day. Berman put the endorsement signing ceremony before the press conference. After signing, Fu Luo just happened to be able to attend the next new product launch conference, which was a killing two birds with one stone.

…………

Soon it was the end of July, and "Seven Swords" was fully released. It won more than 20 million box office in the first three days, and again won 30 million box office in the second week, and accumulated a box office of 5,600 in two weeks.

But in terms of reputation, "Seven Swords" has become a one-sided bad review, and the decline is also terrible. The box office of the first three days and the second seven days is almost the same. It can be seen how sad it is. There is no prospect at all. It also gave the ambition Xu Ke a blow, and all series of movies disappeared.

It was also during this period that another big thing happened in the entertainment industry. Wang Jinhua, known as the number one agent in the mainland, took Chen Daoming, Hu Jun, Liu Jialing, Leung Ka-hui, Ng Junru and other celebrities together to go out of Huayi and switched to Chengtian Entertainment, which has a Japanese background.

The two brothers Wang were so angry that they almost vomited three liters of blood. Wang Jinhua's body was emptied directly. What was surprising was that Fan Bingbing and Li Bingbing stayed in Huayi at the same time and did not run away with Wang Jinhua.

However, these things have little to do with Fu Luo, and he is powerless to have a small supporting role who doesn't have many roles in the box office of "Seven Swords". Anyway, it's a long-destined result, so it's better not to struggle.

During this period, Fu Luo was also in seclusion to create scripts, wanting to unlock his own difficulties, which was the only thing he could use in the future. At the same time, he also made a basically feasible planning plan and gained certain insights with the help of a friend. Moreover, listening to his friend's words, the chance of the eventual success should be very high.
