After Ye Ming left, Xu Fan was busy cleaning up the kitchen, and there were only two people left in the living room, Feng Xiaogang and Wang Zhongjun.

At this time, Wang Zhongjun glanced at Feng Xiaogang and said, "Director Feng, what did Ye Ming come to you to do just now, I wouldn't have come to you to stop me from buying out [Jing Ke's Assassination of King Qin]." I saw it just now, Ye Ming, this kid, made him feel as if he had seen [Jing Ke Assassinating King Qin]. ”

Although it was Wang Zhongjun's own decision to withdraw from the buyout, he was unable to complete the task, and he still complained from the bottom of his heart that Ye Ming, this kid, had disrupted his plan.

If it weren't for Ye Ming's rash call, it would be a big deal to mortgage the property, and he would be able to get one and three million, and he would not be able to buy out the issuance right of [Jing Ke Assassin Qin King]. And at this time, everything was late, Wang Zhongjun was a little unconvinced from the bottom of his heart, is the Huayi brothers worse than Poly Huayi?

Feng Xiaogang said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's not his movie [Crazy Stone] is about to be released, and there will be a press conference, think about it, this movie of his, that is, Ye Ming is supporting alone, and the rest, that is to say, so many newcomers, Zhao Wei, Fan Binbin or something, have no appeal." Looking at Director Chen's movie again, a Gong Li's salary can buy their entire crew rich, and they still premiered in the Great Hall of the People. Isn't this pulling me and Ge You to help out? By the way, Mr. Wang, you are so optimistic about Ye Ming?"

Wang Zhongjun recalled himself and said: "I watched Director Chen's film, although it is a little obscure, but it is definitely a big scene and a big production. It's not blowing it out, the investment looks like it. Even if it is said that there is no propaganda of 100 million, at least 80 million is there. There is no way to compare this, it is not a high-grade movie, Ye Ming's is at most a grassroots movie. What do you and Ge You mean? You two have always been very fond of mixing with this kind of thing, but you may offend Chen Kaige. ”

Feng Xiaogang said helplessly: "I said I didn't want to go, but Han Shanping's third master will also know how to go in this film, if I don't go, then at this time." It's a little bit of not giving face to the third master, you know, [Jing Ke Assassinating King Qin] is also Han Shanping's producer, and his ability to [go to the crazy stone] shows that he supports Ye Ming, and it can't be said if he doesn't go to face. ”

In three days, I pressed it inside, and something happened that was thick enough, and a reporter actually found Ye Ming with great powers and asked him about his achievements in the movie.

Ye Ming thought about it and shouted out a number, thirty million. Suddenly there was an uproar in the entertainment industry, and there are really people who brag and are not afraid of taxes.

Even if Zhang Yimou saw the media report, the master smiled knowingly. I don't know how to evaluate Lu Dao well, young people, some are inexhaustible blood.

Three days later. In the West Hall of the Great Hall of the People, the stars are shining brightly to murder many journalists.

Every car appears. is a first-line red star, Li Xuejian. Wang Zhiwen, Zhang Fengyi, and a handsome little girl, although she is not very famous, but she is called Zhou Xun, and later called Zhou Xun [Movie Elf], Zhou Xun plays the role of a little blind girl here.

Even though she was not very famous before, but in Chen Kaige's movies, it can be said that she has laid a good foundation for her development in the film and television industry.

Then, a Cadillac drove over, and a Cadillac shining with a charming mysterious black light appeared in front of everyone's cameras, and everyone became enthusiastic, and a real king appeared on the red carpet. The car door opened, and Gong Li's familiar smile finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

That sweet smile, with the unique mystery of the East, cold and noble, like a fairy in the clouds, gently floated in front of many cameras, and a burst of flash appeared, shining the whole venue like stars at night.

The crazy fans shouted loudly the words Gong Li, Gong Li, I love you, etc., almost to rush away the security guards who maintained order.

Gong Li has seen a lot of this kind of scene, walked across the red carpet without changing his face, and disappeared into the high gate.

Backstage at the scene, Chen Kaige greeted Gong Li and said: "Some people are not very optimistic about this movie, especially those young reporters, even more so, I can't understand this movie at all, it's too annoying." Some people even said that Ye Ming's movies are better than ours, what are they, what is Ye Ming, Ye Ming didn't know where to play with mud when I was making movies. And that person is very optimistic about him. I thought it should be the news that he was looking for someone to release. ”

Who that person is, the two of them know each other. Gong Li also wanted to gamble with that person, so he agreed to shoot this [Jing Ke Assassination of King Qin].

said that person, just to make Gong Li even more angry.

Zhang Yimou, there is such a common enemy between the two of them.

Chen Kaige knew very well that as long as he mentioned Zhang Yimou, then at this time, Gong Li would definitely be angry.

Sure enough, at the beginning, Gong Li was still noncommittal, who is she, an international actress, and domestic reporters can't afford to be angry, and she loses her identity. Venice, Cannes, Berlin and other three major film festivals are where she goes, and even the Oscars, which is her goal.

But after hearing Chen Kaige's words, Gong Li's originally expressionless and unfrozen face really showed a distorted expression, but he was worthy of being an international actress, and then Gong Li controlled his emotions very well, and said slowly: "Director Chen, what are you doing with those people angry, those little guys, your [Farewell My Concubine] When they are shining in the world, their gang is still studying stupidly in school, what qualifications do you have to say you, I see, this movie is an innovative movie, and it is bound to cause a sensation. It must also be able to shine internationally. Ye Ming, who is this person, I really haven't heard of it. ”

At this moment, Chen Kaige was secretly happy in his heart, as long as Gong Li's anger was provoked, it would be enough, and Gong Li would definitely work very hard when promoting.

It can be said that all the other actors in the crew, Chen Kaige, can master it, and they will say whatever they say in front of reporters, but Gong Li is an exception, Gong Li is a real international actress, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the iconic face of Chinese films at international film festivals.

However, now that Gong Li's anger has been provoked by success, everything is fine.

Twenty minutes later, the grand premiere ceremony was held in the West Hall of the Great Hall of the People, and at the press conference, Zhou Xun was just squeezed into the most marginal position of the actors.

This is also a rule in the film and television industry, according to the current status of the live actor, she is already thankful that she is qualified to stand here, and she asks for something else, which is boring.

In the group of reporters, Lao Bai happened to meet an acquaintance, Yu Guo, at this time, Lao Bai couldn't help but want to sarcastically say a few words: "I said, less, didn't you say that you are very optimistic about Ye Ming's [Crazy Stone]? Why did you come here again, I heard that a press conference is also being held over there, why don't you go over." ”

Yu Guo hung his head and said: "We have few reporters in the editorial department, so we can only run one scene, and the boss has designated me to come here, I'm afraid there is something I can do." ”

Lao Bai snorted and said: "Come here, come here, Ye Ming's kid actually said that he wanted his small-budget movie to have a box office of 30 million, it was just wishful thinking, he thought everyone was Feng Xiaogang." Go for his spring and autumn dreams. Don't look at the lineup of [Jing Ke Assassinating King Qin], Gong Li, Zhang Fengyi, Wang Zhiwen, Li Xuejian, everyone can suppress him even if they take it out alone, as long as he is still 30 million, I think he looks like 30 million. ”

At this moment, it was soon time for reporters to ask questions, and Lao Bai of [Southern Sunday] was the first to seize the opportunity to stand up and say: "Hello Director Chen, I am a reporter from [Southern Sunday], first of all, congratulations on the imminent release of this historical masterpiece." Now I think everyone is concerned about a question, what is your expectation for the box office of [Jing Ke Assassination Qin King]. Two days ago, a rookie director filmed a movie, and shouted out a high box office of 30 million at the box office. ”

Chen Kaige said with a smile: "The expectation of the box office of this movie, needless to say, the domestic movie box office, the box office of our [Jing Ke Assassination of King Qin] is aimed at international movies, such as the box office of [Titanic], this is our real goal." Our investment is 100 million, and if the box office does not exceed 200 million, then I think it will be a failure. ”

After the domestic release of [Titanic], the box office was an astonishing more than 300 million, Chen Kaige was naturally not arrogant enough to say that he surpassed the Titanic, but it can be seen from his tone that he is disdainful of the domestic movie box office.

Listen to people's tone, a box office of no more than 200 million is a failure.

What is the courage of an international director, this is the spirit of an international director.

The Earl was furious, and the box office record of swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger came out.

At this time, Gong Li took over and said very unceremoniously: "Director Chen is embarrassed to say, I'll answer you the second question." I have also seen many big directors from various countries abroad, and they have come step by step to succeed in what they can do, obviously, some young people in our country are too arrogant, thinking that they have found a few people to make a so-called movie, and they are arrogant, 30 million, and he can really shout out. I'm ashamed that my country has such a group of people who don't deserve to be called filmmakers. Movies are not as simple as they imagined, and not everyone can be a director. For a movie made by someone like this, I thought it would be good to have 300,000 at the box office. ”

The cold scene is really cold, the whole scene is silent, and no one understands why Gong Li, who has always spoken much, actually said-for-tat at a young director. (To be continued......)
