Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

The box office hit of "Moon" on its first day worldwide did not change Shan He's road show schedule.

The next afternoon, Shanhe took Hathaway on a flight to the neon capital.

The farewell of Shanhe's parents at the airport was caught on camera by media reporters.

While Shanhe was still on the plane, Hathaway met the Chinese parents, and the news that Shanhe was about to do something good spread wildly on the Internet.

There are pictures and the truth! This time, the pictures are even matched, and it’s no longer just dry guessing and making-up!

The world premiere of "Moon" broke out and the gossip about Shanhe occupied the public's attention for the past two days.

The theater companies are not stupid. They know that the box office of "Moon" has to go up, and the film schedule of "Moon" has directly increased to 60%.

Their favorite Hollywood blockbusters were thrown into the corner.

As soon as Shanhe got on the plane, he started browsing his Neon schedule.

During the four-day neon tour, he had to participate in many live road shows in Tokyo and Osaka, and interviews with newspapers, magazines and TV stations were also fully scheduled.

This is my second neon trip, and the first time I made an apology incident out of nowhere. This time there won’t be any extraneous matters, right?

Yang Liu on the side also reminded again: "Boss, we are going to promote the movie, not to be anti-Japanese heroes. Please take it easy this time!"

Shan He turned his head and looked at Yang Liu, "I guess what happened last time will inevitably be mentioned. I don't have to talk about it, but I won't change my attitude!"

"This time we will follow you throughout the whole process. If we encounter sensitive topics, I will step in to stop it. Boss, we can just finish the trip as normal for the next few days."

"Okay! It seems that Neon will have to come less often in the future!"

"You have a lot of book and movie fans in Neon. The idol worship complex here is very strong. There must be a lot of book fans and movie fans coming to the airport to pick you up this time. You have to be prepared!" Yang Liu responded with a smile.

Shanhe shook his head and said: "The Neon people are really a bit weird. Logically speaking, they shouldn't want to see me, right? Isn't there a group of people on the Neon Internet who are boycotting me?"

"We have also talked about this matter. The characters of neon people seem to be a bit extreme. Most of them don't care about politics. They pay more attention to entertainment and celebrities, and they are quite fanatical. However, a few are particularly concerned about politics, and there are factions among them. There are a lot of them. The ones who oppose you the most are the far-right elements. Although they are very few, they are relatively crazy. We have security preparations for this neon trip. We have several security personnel in the team. In addition, we also have contact with the embassy. They will arrange for a military attache to accompany them, don't worry, boss!" Yang Liu replied with a straight face.

"The embassy will send people to follow us!" Shanhe looked at Yangliu in surprise and responded, "There's no need to be so exaggerated. I'm just here to promote the movie, not to declare war!"

"You are the biggest business card of our country. If something happens to you, the impact will be huge, so you'd better be careful!"

"Okay! This happened!"

Shanhe and his friends arrived in Tokyo in the evening, and when they got off the plane, they were unexpectedly taken to the VIP waiting room by the airport staff.

Shanhe was confused by the operation of Neon Airport. Why do you still want to restrict my entry?

Hathaway was also a little confused. She had been to Neon several times and nothing like this had ever happened before!

The two looked at each other, and Shanhe explained to Hathaway what happened last time he came to Neon, and also gave her some knowledge about the grudges and grudges between the two countries.

"Country M also dropped two mushroom bombs on neon. Why don't they boycott Hollywood stars?" Hathaway asked in confusion.

"Because you are the strong ones now, and the Neon people worship the strong!"

"Okay! Honey, this is the first time I have encountered this situation!"

Ten minutes later, Yang Liu walked up to Shanhe with a gentle-looking middle-aged man, "Boss, this is Xu Zhengyang, the military attaché of our embassy in Neon. He will join us throughout the entire Neon trip."

Shanhe quickly stood up and held Xu Zhengyang's hands, "Sorry to trouble you, Comrade Xu, I didn't expect to have to trouble the embassy to take care of me once I came to Neon. Thank you!"

"Shanhe, we know your situation in Neon very well. As a Chinese citizen, we have the responsibility to ensure your safety. You're welcome!" Xu Zhengyang answered directly,

"I also figured out the reason why you were detained at the airport. Because of your arrival, there was a little commotion outside the airport. Your book fans clashed with the far-right elements. Two girls were injured and were sent to the hospital. Now at the airport The security personnel have taken control of the situation and we will be able to enter the country soon!"

"Ah!" Shanhe was shocked by Xu Zhengyang's words, "How could this happen? Are the two girls my book fans? How are they injured?"

"I don't know the specific situation yet, it shouldn't be serious!" Xu Zhengyang replied, "Shanhe, we have to pay attention to this situation. You are now the target of the far-right elements. They probably want to use your influence to cause trouble. Get attention!”

Yang Liu looked at Shanhe worriedly, "Boss, how about we discuss with Dongbao Imaging, shorten the schedule, and leave tomorrow after handling the interview?"

Shanhe gave a disdainful "hum" and replied calmly: "Why do you want to shorten the schedule? As per normal, I am not afraid of them doing these little tricks. I am somewhat looking forward to it. Yang Liu, you will arrange for someone to find out the situation of the two book fans in a while. The first thing I do when I come to Neon is to visit the injured book fan!"

"Got it! I'll make arrangements right away!"

As expected, just as Xu Zhengyang expected, Shanhe and his party passed through customs a dozen minutes later amidst the apologies of the airport staff.

Due to the riot, fans and reporters no longer surrounded the airport.

Shanhe and his party quickly got in the car and settled down at the hotel.

That night, Shanhe figured out the whole process.

The thing is very simple. After receiving the news that Yamagawa was coming to Tokyo for promotion, the Yamagawa fan group in Tokyo spontaneously made an appointment to welcome Yamagawa at the airport, and even prepared flowers and gifts.

But far-right groups also received the news and organized a dozen people to prepare to protest against Shanhe at the airport.

As a result, the two sides got together, and there was nothing wrong. You welcome yours, but I protest mine.

However, the flowers and doll gifts in the hands of fans stimulated the far-right elements, who began to angrily curse the fans at the airport gate, and the curses were probably quite unpleasant.

Fans began to fight back one after another. In terms of numbers, the right-wingers definitely did not have the advantage. In the end, they were so angry that they could not hold back and took action.

The scene was quite chaotic at that time, and the entire airport gate was in chaos. In the chaos, the two girls were trampled and injured and were sent to the hospital.

The injury is not serious! But he is still in the hospital for observation.

After Shanhe finished his dinner, he immediately left for the hospital to visit the injured book fan.

At this time, the riot outside the airport gate had attracted the attention and reports of major media outlets in Neon. There were many reporters waiting for news at the entrance of the hospital.

The arrival of Shanhe made them excited all of a sudden. The wait was not in vain, there was indeed a surprise!

"Shanhe-kun, are you here to visit the injured female student? What do you think of this incident?"

"Shanhe Jun, what are your comments on the protests by right-wing groups?"

"Shanhe Jun, who do you think is responsible for this incident?"

…

Shanhe ignored the reporters' questions and walked directly into the hospital with his team.

The two injured book lovers were both young girls in their twenties. They suffered an unforeseen disaster. Accompanied by their families, they looked very depressed!

Shanhe's arrival gave them an unexpected surprise!

"Thank you for your support. I'm very sorry that this happened. I hope you weren't too hurt!"

Shanhe sent flowers and gifts to the two girls, and also expressed condolences and regrets to the families of the two girls.

"Shanhe Jun, Your Highness! It's not your fault, it's because those people scolded them so badly. It happened all at once, and we didn't even react!"

"Yes! Qiaozi is right, those right-wingers are so abominable, they are thugs! Mr. Shanhe, thank you for coming to the hospital to see us. We originally prepared flowers and doll gifts for you, but now we want you Send us flowers and gifts, thank you for your concern, we will continue to support you!"

With the help of a translator, Shanhe exchanged a few words with the two book fans, signed autographs and took a group photo with them, then said goodbye and left the ward.

At this time, reporters who received the news rushed to the hospital one after another. Shanhe and his team were surrounded by dozens of reporters.

Amidst the flashes and shutter sounds, the microphone came straight up.

"Shanhe-kun, please say a few words!"

"Shanhe-kun, what do you think of this unexpected riot at the airport?"

"Shanhejun..."

…

At this time, Shanhe did not hide, he smiled and replied: "I am very sorry that such a thing happened, and at the same time I don't understand it very much. Everyone has their own preferences and positions, and they also have the right to express them, but everything should be Resorting to violence is a shameful behavior. I can accept that some people hate me, protest against me, or even call me names, but I do not accept their use of violence. I think this behavior is very shameful and should be condemned by the whole society. Peace , Harmony is the pursuit of mankind, violence cannot be the choice to solve problems!"

After Shanhe said this, he ignored the reporters' questions and shouts, got into the car and left the hospital under the protection of the accompanying team.

The next day, the accident caused by welcoming Shanhe made headlines in the media. Shanhe went to the hospital to visit the injured book fan as soon as he got off the plane, and his answers in the hospital also appeared in newspapers and online news.

This incident triggered many scholars and celebrities to speak out, and Shanhe's answer was supported by most people.

You can hate and protest against mountains and rivers, but you cannot use violence to solve problems. If things go on like this, neon will go back to normal!

They expressed their hope that the Neon Police Department would severely punish the perpetrators and bring positive guidance to the Neon society.

Shanhe's promotional schedule hasn't even started yet, but there's already a lot of commotion!

This incident made the entire team plan Shanhe's itinerary more carefully. Dongbao Film and Television also assured Shanhe that this kind of thing only happens by chance and will never become the norm.

In the first two days of Neon, Shanhe's trip went smoothly, and road shows and media interviews were normal.

However, the media mentioned this unexpected riot in all their questions to him. Shanhe did not talk much about this issue and only reiterated his statement at the door of the hospital.

At this time, the global first-week box office data of "Moon" was also released.

Shan He listened to Yang Liu's report in the neon hotel.

"The three-day domestic first weekend, 75 million, the box office on Saturday and Sunday was a blast, 2750 on Saturday, 28 million on Sunday! It seems that the global first-day box office data has stimulated the domestic public !

The box office in North America in its first week was US$17.5 million, second in the weekly box office rankings, "The Grudge 2" ranked first, with US$30 million, we ranked second, and "Mr. of the Year" ranked first with US$15 million. Third, boss, according to the reputation of "Moon" in the North American market, the North American box office should exceed 50 million US dollars, which is much higher than our expectations. The media and audiences have mostly praised the film. If we had known, we would have gone North America has been promoting it, but the province is worried here! "

Shanhe glanced at Yangliu, "You're just saying this in hindsight. What's there to be afraid of? A few little devils can scare you! Go on!"

Yang Liu looked at Shanhe and continued with a smile: "Neon's first opening was 650 million yen, ranking first in the box office rankings. The effect of your visit is still very obvious. Yesterday, Neon's single-day box office exceeded 250 million yen. , Neon's film market is relatively long-lasting. According to the estimates of our distributors in Neon, "Moon" will have no problem breaking through 3 billion yen in Neon!

The European market is the most promising. Your trip to the Venice Film Festival was really worthwhile. It broke 20 million US dollars in the first week, 21 million US dollars! It ranks first in the box office rankings in countries such as Britain, France, Germany, and Italy, and audiences speak highly of "Moon"!

The first week's box office in Hong Kong was nearly HK$8 million, and in Taiwan it was NT$23 million, both ranking first in this week's rankings!

Including the scattered box office in Southeast Asia, Brazil, and South Africa, "Moon" had a box office of US$65.7 million in its first week, ranking first in the world this week. Boss, you are so awesome. You just released it. satellite! "

After listening to this, Shanhe leaned on the back of the sofa and smiled, "It is indeed nearly twice as much as I thought. It seems that I did a good job shooting "Moon"!"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? It's a miracle that "Moon" won two awards and performed so well at the box office. I guess everyone in the company is buzzing with excitement right now!" Yang Liu said happily.

"My dear, congratulations on the global success of "Moon". Six million US dollars earned more than ten times the box office in the first week. It's amazing! Qiu, you are really capable of anything!" Hathaway hugged He sighed while holding Shanhe's arm.

Shan He patted Anne Hathaway's hand and smiled without replying. None of them knew that they were cheating!

However, "Moon" in his previous life definitely did not win any awards, nor did it have such a prominent box office record. His transformation of the movie was still successful, which gives Shanhe a full sense of accomplishment!

The next day, major media outlets around the world reported on the box office miracle of "Moon".

"The box office machine has been wound up again. Hua Guoqiu is still astonishing as a director. The global box office of "Moon" exceeded 65 million US dollars in the first weekend. Please note that this is only a small investment of 6 million US dollars. In a science fiction movie, 90% of the entire movie has only one Tony Liang...”——The New York Times

…

""Moon" proves Venice's sharp vision, and the whole of Europe is applauding it. It broke 20 million US dollars in the first week and 65 million US dollars worldwide. The name of Hua Guoqiu Magician is unquestionable..."—— The Times

…

"The Prince of China broke the monopoly of Hollywood. "Moon" topped the global box office rankings in its first week. This is the pride of the entire East Asia..." - "Asahi Shimbun"

…

"The science fiction film "Moon" written and directed by young Chinese director Qiu Shanhe, with its excellent quality and connotation, has a global box office of more than 500 million yuan in the first three days of the first weekend, occupying the first place in the global movie rankings last week. This is a domestically produced film. The movie is a landmark success..."——"Popular Daily"

…

These reports added another fire to the promotion of "Moon".

The film market is like this, and the distribution of commercial films is a winner-takes-all game!

On this day, Yamakawa also completed his road show in Tokyo and went to Osaka, the second largest city of neon, to continue promoting.

Osaka is a historic city of neon lights. It was once the city with the largest neon lights, but was replaced by Tokyo after World War II.

On the afternoon of the first day Shanhe came here, he accompanied Hathaway to visit the ancient city of Osaka.

Hathaway has to return to country M tomorrow, so Shanhe took time to go on a disguised trip with her.

The weather in Osaka in October is very pleasant. The trees around the ancient city of Osaka are full of red leaves and the scenery is beautiful. The two of them walked on the path in the park fully equipped, enjoying the rare leisure.

"Qiu, we will probably meet again during the awards season next year. I'm a little reluctant to leave!"

Shanhe patted his girlfriend who was nestled in his arms, "We all have our own dreams to realize, right? Your Oscar chasing journey has just begun. "The Devil Wears Prada" should be able to help you get a supporting actress. Nominated, but it’s probably very difficult to win. It’s hard to say “Moon” was even nominated. It’s a pure Chinese film!”

Hathaway shook her head and retorted: "Qiu, you underestimate your position in Hollywood. I dare not say anything else. As long as you sign up, you will definitely get a nomination for Best Foreign Language Film. Liang may even be nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film Award." Nominated for Best Actor!"

"Really?" Shanhe responded softly with a smile, "Annie, you are too subjective. Oscars are very exclusive. It is possible to be nominated for a foreign language film, but it is probably difficult for others!"

Hathaway turned around and said with a smile: "Qiu, Disney will help you with public relations. You are now one of their most important weapons. The more successful you are, the more profits they will make. Don't underestimate Disney, don't underestimate Brooks." Mr. Mo, they have great energy in Hollywood!"

Shanhe looked at Hathaway who looked determined, smiled and replied: "Okay! Dear Princess Anne, I invite you to be my companion on the Oscar red carpet now, are you willing?"

"Haha...I am very honored, my dear Prince of China!"

…

The road show that night was held at Toho Cinemas in Umeda, Osaka, which is the most prosperous commercial street in Osaka.

That night, the largest screening hall at Umeda Toho Cinema was packed to the brim. After the movie, Yamakawa took the stage to interact with the fans.

Shanhe answered questions from fans amidst cheers.

During the period, many fans came to the stage to lay flowers and gifts, and the security personnel in charge of Shanhe raised their vigilance to the highest level.

But towards the end of the road show, something unexpected happened.

When Shanhe was accepting the bouquet from the last fan representative, a shoe suddenly flew out from the audience!

The target was naturally Shan He, but his accuracy was a bit off, and he flew straight towards the female fan next to Shan He!

Shanhe subconsciously reached forward and took the sneaker firmly in his hand!

At this time, Shanhe was also a little stunned. Damn it, I still have this kind of treatment, a proper "flying shoe door"!

The security personnel around him quickly blocked Shanhe behind him, and the young man who threw shoes at Shanhe was also controlled.

Shanhe held up the shoes, looked at the shocked female fan, and calmly raised the shoes in his hands to express comfort!

The female fan was immediately amused by Shanhe's action, "Arigado Kuseimas!"

Shanhe smiled and pushed away the security guard in front of him, holding the microphone and said: "This shoe is not for this lady, is it? I think it is a gift from this gentleman, right? I am still the first This is the first time I received such a unique gift, I accepted it and will keep it well!"

As soon as the translator translated the original words, the audience burst into laughter!

The first road show in Osaka ended in farce!

The next day, Shanhe's version of "Flying Shoe Gate" made headlines in major neon media, and a photo of Shanhe carrying shoes to greet female fans took up half of the page.

"The prince of China received the most unique gift, right-wing groups should be ashamed of it..."

"The prince caught the flying shoes with his bare hands, and his aristocratic temperament was undoubtedly revealed..."

"Hua Guoqiu was attacked by flying shoes, and the magician took action to deal with it calmly..."

…

With Shanhe handling it easily and with full joy, the farce quickly spread throughout Neon Country, which actually brought Shanhe many unexpected fans.

The neon media and the public expressed their appreciation and recognition for Shan He's calm response, believing that this is the style of a true literati!

Calm with ridicule, and with a fearless atmosphere!

This incident even spread to the whole world through the Internet. The video of Shanhe catching flying shoes with his bare hands was reposted by countless websites, and many people burst into laughter.

The grievances and grievances between Shanhe and Neon right-wingers suddenly spread all over the world!

China is no exception!

The entire Internet is joyfully denouncing the neon right-wingers.

"The little devil is so mean. He uses his shoes as a hidden weapon. Shanhe is really good at it. Not only does he take advantage of it with his bare hands, he shows his demeanor as a peerless master!"

"If this little devil dares to come to China, he will definitely be beaten to death by a shoe..."

"Haha... Shanhe has really practiced, hasn't he? Looking at the video, he is so sure when answering, but the kid's accuracy is a bit bad..."

…

Different from the angry ridicule of Chinese netizens, the melon-eating people in other countries just watched the Neon Man’s jokes!

"This neon man is very creative. He used his shoes to sneak attack Hua Guoqiu. Unfortunately, he is a bit stupid. Doesn't he know that all Chinese people know Kung Fu, let alone Hua Guoqiu?"

"Haha... this video is so funny. Hua Guoqiu should endorse sports shoes. His trick of catching flying shoes with his bare hands will definitely become a classic!"

"Why are the Neon people so extreme? Hua Guoqiu didn't say anything too extreme. Isn't it normal for them to apologize? They are really unreasonable Neon people!"

…

This video is so dramatic. Celebrities, accidents, joy, and the stories behind them are all magic weapons to attract attention. Within a few days, it became the most popular video in the world, and even media from various countries reported on it. Funny news!

The sneak attack by right-wing elements unexpectedly became the biggest propaganda tool of "Moon"!

I wonder if the right-wing young man who lost his shoe will cry in the bathroom. Not only has he become a global joke, but he has also become the best assist in "Moon"!
