Chapter 709 Forrest Gump

"To be honest, Luo Quan has finally understood the current popularity of the Internet. What he said is all the key points."

"No wonder she has remained popular until now. It is indeed her sobriety that makes her so popular."

"As she said, as long as she has the ability, a large number of tap water will help her with marketing for free. At this time, there is actually no need for a public relations team. Paying for a spa team will easily cause visual fatigue to passers-by."

"It's a pity that these celebrities nowadays don't know the wisdom of when enough is enough. They only know how to buy more and don't care about popularity at all.

As everyone knows, popularity among passers-by is actually the most important, because you will definitely not have more fans than passers-by. "

"Yes, this is Luo Quan's wisdom. The ideas and methods of geniuses are always different from ordinary people, but they can always yield miraculous results."

………………

Seeing these compliments in the comment area, Luo Quan himself was surprised.

Did I say that? I was just afraid that going too far would be too much, so I asked my sister to reduce the number of exposures. How could passers-by imagine so many things?

However, it felt quite good to be praised by everyone for having a high IQ, and Luo Quan would not be stupid enough to jump out and correct him on purpose.

For now, just think of her as a rare wise person in the entertainment industry...

Time is gradually passing, and the much-anticipated premiere of "Forrest Gump" has finally arrived.

The reason why it is said to be highly anticipated does not mean that many civilians are looking forward to this movie.

Mainly stock investors are counting on it to be the savior when the stock market is on the verge of collapse.

Although Luo Quan said at the beginning, don't regard movies as God, it cannot make the stock price rise.

However, we cannot stand the exaggeration and flattery of those unscrupulous media.

After investors can't count on anything, they can only place their hope on these illusory things.

Like the previous premieres, Luo Quan still put in some effort at the premiere.

Last time, I brought the main creators to a fan meeting and cosplay.

This time, it was a charity party.

Before the premiere, she announced that some of her personal belongings would be auctioned off at the premiere.

Of course, it's definitely not the underwear that lsp is thinking of. She's not so unrestricted.

Mainly some tools, such as ballpoint pens, guitars, and many signed albums or photos.

Because it is a charity auction, all proceeds from the auction will be donated to charities in the United States to help the homeless.

Before the premiere, Luo Quan tweeted: "For those who have no fixed place to live and cannot guarantee food and clothing, having enough food and clothing is the American dream, and everything else is just an empty declaration. "

After the tweet was posted, it received angry likes from American netizens. The comment with the most likes said that she has more conscience than all politicians combined.

Then someone retorted: Politicians’ consciences are all negative, and no matter how much they are added up, they will still be negative.

Then it became the second most liked comment.

Although these remarks were somewhat offensive to the government, they were not blocked, probably because they wanted the people to have a place to vent.

Venting online is much better than holding a parade offline with zero-yuan purchases.

The premiere was informed in advance that it would be an auction of Luo Quan's belongings, and she didn't expect many wealthy people other than fans to attend.

But I didn't expect that after the news was sent out, many wealthy people actually sent emails wanting to attend the premiere.

"Are these people all fans? That's not true." Luo Quan looked at these rich people who kept saying they wanted to contribute to charity, and he had no idea.

I randomly selected some of them and sent invitations, and the remaining places were randomly distributed to fans.

In fact, this auction is only symbolic, and she has no intention of raising huge amounts of money.

Mainly I want to take this opportunity to appeal to all walks of life in the United States to see if I can create some splash.

If everyone is indifferent, just treat her as a clown.

Anyway, she probably only did this kind of kindness once in the United States.

After all, "Forrest Gump" has such a strong marketing effort, and it really can't be justified if it doesn't do something if it takes the dividends from others.

The premiere was held as scheduled, with film journalists and critics sitting in the front row, while wealthy people and fans sat slightly further back.

As before, Luo Quan, as a director, first took the lead as a creative director and went on stage to share with everyone what happened during the filming of the film.

Although a lot of things happened during the filming period, Luo Quan's character is to report good things but not bad things.

Life is already very difficult, and adding more difficulties to a movie about escaping life would only add to the difficulties of the audience.

Therefore, Luo Quan doesn't like to use this method to show how difficult it is to shoot unless necessary.

No matter how difficult it is, the movie has been made, and it is estimated that most people will not care too much about it.

After the movie behind-the-scenes section, the auction officially begins.

For most fans present, this is actually the highlight.

It is worth mentioning that all the auction items are basically things Luo Quan has used in the past two years.

As for those that are older, they are more commemorative and carry a lot of memories. Luo Quan does not intend to sell them.

The first auction item was the ballpoint pen that Luo Quan often used when he was writing at his desk.

It looked new on the outside, but the middle part had been rounded by her fingers, and even the icon was gone.

The starting price is one dollar, with each increase not less than five thousand dollars.

Even for all the spectators at the scene, this price is an absolute bargain.

The price is only one dollar. How much do you look down on the economic level of the United States?

As a result, outrageous scenes that were never seen at auction venues in the past appeared.

As soon as the bidding started, all the spectators, without exception, raised their signs.

Regardless of whether it can be photographed in the end, at least everyone wants to buy it and can afford it.

However, with price increases one after another, the price of this ballpoint pen soon exceeded $50,000.

Those still holding signs up to this point are basically the rich people in the front row.

However, Luo Quan declared in advance that no one could take more than one piece, so these rich people would not be allowed to take away the entire collection.

In the end, Luo Quan's ballpoint pen was auctioned for US$70,000.

Next, Luo Quan's pens, pencils, paintbrushes, and all kinds of pens were taken out and walked around. Basically, they cost tens of thousands of dollars, far exceeding their own value.

Small items were sold out, followed by big items such as guitars and violins.

Because these Qin Luoquan bought all well-known brands, the prices were also on the high side, and the final transaction prices were basically over one million US dollars.

Because it is the premiere, the entire event will be broadcast live.

The subsequent auctions can also be seen online, and everyone is paying attention to how much these used things in Luoquan can fetch.

Although everyone knew it would be expensive, everyone was still surprised.

In addition to those rich people, Luo Quan's fans are also fanatical and secretive.

Many fans wearing ordinary clothes were able to bid with those rich people until the last moment, and some even won the final victory. This was something that netizens did not expect.

It is said that Luo Quan has a large fan base and many invisible rich people. Now it seems that it is really not a joke. No wonder he was able to raise a US$100 million swimsuit photo fund in such a short time.

When all the tools and supplies are sold out, it’s time for the signed album and signed photos to appear.

It can be said that these are specially prepared by Luo Quan for fans.

Because those rich people probably have no shortage of ways to get these things.

Moreover, after the previous rounds of auctions, basically everything has been harvested. At this time, there is no way to compete with others.

Compared with before, the competition for these relatively affordable items is much more intense. Most viewers have similar financial resources, and each price increase is not particularly large. The final transaction price is generally around US$10,000.

The entire auction lasted for more than an hour. Luo Quan was stuck in time and ended the auction before twelve o'clock.

The harvest this time was quite good, selling for more than 33 million US dollars, which was much higher than she expected.

It can only be said that the rich in the United States are indeed rich.

After the auction ended, it was time for the movie to begin.

Luo Quan and the other creators came on stage again to thank the audience for coming to the premiere, and then the lights dimmed.

At the same time, movie theaters across the United States also opened their "Forrest Gump" theaters. All the audiences who had pre-purchased movie tickets started to sit down with popcorn and Coke.

Some are alone, and some are with their families.

Tom originally planned to ask his good friend Jerry to watch a movie together, but Jerry said he was not interested in this kind of thing, so Tom came alone.

Obviously going to watch a movie is quite relaxing, but when he entered the cinema, he found that the people around him didn't look very good.

But it's normal, because they themselves don't look good either.

The fucking reality makes them all want to find comfort in the virtual world.

It seems that "Forrest Gump" seems to be a good choice.

What is particularly worth mentioning is that when he took his seat, he found a girl with blond hair sitting next to him.

She was also watching the movie alone, and she was so beautiful and innocent looking.

Tom, who had been an otaku for many years, was immediately attracted to her, but due to his low self-esteem, he did not dare to take the initiative to strike up a conversation with the girl, so after taking his seat, he could only watch the big screen obediently. Use the corner of your eye to look at the girl.

He didn't know if the girl knew about his behavior. Tom guessed that she didn't know. After all, she was watching the big screen and looking forward to the movie just like him.

Soon, the whole place fell into darkness, and the words "Fountain Entertainment" appeared on the big screen, as well as the classic title of Universal Movie.

At the beginning of the picture, it focuses on a feather.

It floated in the sky, passing over the city, and finally landed next to a pair of muddy sneakers.

The camera looks up, and the protagonist of the movie, Forrest Gump, appears.

Leon's handsome face showed a slightly different dullness at this moment. He was obviously in a middle-aged state, but his eyes and movements looked like that of a child.

A black woman sitting next to him noticed something strange about him and asked him why he was dressed so well but his sneakers were so dirty.

A-Gump showed a simple and innocent smile. There was no perfunctoriness that a middle-aged man should have at all. There was only sincerity in it.

A magnetic voice sounded, and he began to talk about his childhood.

The camera switches to A-Gump's childhood.

It turned out that he was born with intellectual disabilities and a disability in his legs.

And like many American families, his father is missing.

Despite the difficult conditions, Forrest Gump's mother still tried her best to find a way to treat her son. She even went to the hospital to install assistive devices at a high price so that Forrest Gump could walk.

Forrest Gump could get off the ground and walk, but because the equipment was too cumbersome, his actions became even more comical.

Soon he reached school age, but because of his intellectual disability, he could not pass even the simplest tests.

But in the end, he passed the enrollment monitoring and successfully enrolled.

The price was that his mother made a huge sacrifice and traded her body with the school teachers.

Forrest Gump successfully enrolled in school, but his fate did not change.

His intelligence was still low, and no one was even willing to give up his seat for him on the school bus for the first time.

But it was on this day that he met the girl he loved all his life - Jenny.

Only this girl asked A-Gump if he wanted to sit with her.

In Forrest Gump's eyes at that time, this girl was like an angel inside, full of innocence and kindness.

Forrest Gump, who still didn't understand what love was, could only look at the girl with all his eyes and sat next to her.

All this seems to be fate.

However, meeting the goddess did not make his life much better.

After entering school, Forrest Gump was still often ostracized by his classmates because of his intelligence.

Once I was walking with Jenny on my way home from school.

A-Gump met those little bullies again.

They pushed their bicycles, picked up stones on the road and threw them at Forrest Gump, and even pushed him.

They were outnumbered and Forrest Gump was no match, so he could only turn around and run away like an ugly duckling.

But because the auxiliary equipment on his legs was too cumbersome, his swaying body made the bullies laugh so hard that they got on their bikes and chased after him.

Seeing that Forrest Gump was about to be overtaken, Jenny shouted loudly from behind: "Run, Forrest Gump, run!"

For A-Gump, nothing was more exciting than Jenny's encouragement.

It was at this moment that a miracle happened.

His legs seemed to suddenly return to normal and began to move forward rapidly.

The auxiliary equipment on the legs was also broken due to the change in running posture.

The slow motion showed A-Gump's legs, and the parts that bound him fell apart while running.

This scene is like emerging from a cocoon and turning into a butterfly.

In the cinema, countless viewers suddenly burst into tears for some unknown reason.

The inexplicable feeling was so strong and so sudden.

Obviously this is a miracle with no scientific basis at all, why does it give people such a sense of reality?

No one can answer the answer to this question, probably only A-Gump himself knows.
