Chapter 595: The tension at the press conference (12,000 per day, please subscribe~)
The arrival of Wu Jianye and others also means that the press conference of the movie "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" has officially begun.
Before that, everyone's focus was on Wu Jianye and Isabelle Adjani, after all, things other than this movie have never been disclosed by Phantom Entertainment, so even the media's knowledge is limited.
But when they saw all the main creative lineup, they were still shocked, because the addition of Mel Gibson and Whoopi Goldberg added more hot spots to the movie.
Before Wu Jianye, the game between Phantom Entertainment and Hollywood Jews, these reporters all knew that in order not to make Hollywood Jewish bigwigs hold grudges, many well-known Hollywood actors refused the invitation to the movie "Ghost Love".
But now Mel Gibson, a rising star in Hollywood, has chosen this film, which naturally surprised many reporters.
At this time, Mel Gibson did not dare to express his views on Jews in later generations, so not many people knew what he really thought in his heart.
But no matter what, the protagonist of today's press conference is still Wu Jianye!
The entertainment industry is an extremely realistic place, and the Hollywood entertainment industry is the most realistic among them, who is the most famous, who is the object that everyone is most passionate about, no matter how famous other people are before, or how good the future development prospects are, they only look at the present.
So when the host announced the start of the press conference of "People and Ghosts", the reporters on the scene immediately began to raise their hands to ask questions.
The first to be selected was the entertainment magazine "Variety", which is as famous as "The Hollywood Reporter" in Hollywood!
"Director Wu, hello, I'm Savannah from Variety, it was reported before that Isabel Adjani has moved out of the hotel where you live, does it mean that the relationship between you is over?"
Wu Jianye and Isabel Adjani looked at each other and smiled, and then Wu Jianye replied: "When I was at the Berlin Film Festival, I already said that Isabel and I are very good friends, and there is no so-called love affair between us!"
Although the reporter filmed how intimate the two of them were at the airport, Wu Jianye and Isabel Adjani were indeed not in love, as for the real relationship between the two, Wu Jianye couldn't really tell them, even if the reporters had guessed, but it was impossible for this kind of thing to really report.
It's either a lover or a friend, and it can't be that relationship.
Savannah pursed her lips slightly, obviously not satisfied with Wu Jianye's answer: "But according to the behavior of the two of you at the airport when you came to Hollywood, it is obvious that you have surpassed the relationship of friends!"
Wu Jianye said with a smile: "I'm sorry, today is the press conference of "People and Ghosts", all the plots that have nothing to do with the movie, we will talk about it later!"
The standard official answer left Savannah at no point.
The next person who stood up to ask questions was The Hollywood Reporter, which has the title of Hollywood's No. 1 title.
"Hello Director Wu, I'm Jeddy from The Hollywood Reporter, we saw two wonderful actors in the starring lineup, Mel Gibson and Whoopi Goldberg, we want to know how you finalized these two actors?"
Jedi is a young man with glasses, also a white man, except that his serious appearance is less like an entertainment reporter and more like a news reporter.
"I believe that Mel Gibson and Whoopi Goldberg are both excellent actors, and the excellent actors are obviously very high requirements for the script of the movie, and the behind-the-scenes groups have extremely high requirements, and their choice to join this movie doesn't just show that they are optimistic about this movie?" Wu Jianye said insinuatingly.
All the previous Hollywood media reports were almost all not optimistic about this movie, and Wu Jianye is obviously fighting back against these reporters when he says this now.
"Director Wu, we all know what you have achieved in Europe before this, but there is still a certain difference between European movies and Hollywood movies, this time you have found these excellent actors, aren't you worried that this movie will become a stain on their acting career?"
Wu Jianye shook his head: "Without investigation, there is no right to speak, and now that this movie has not started shooting, you are so unoptimistic about this movie, where have you seen this movie?"
For Wu Jianye's counterattack, the scene laughed, although they were not optimistic about this movie, but they were still very happy to see Wu Jianye and the reporters of "The Hollywood Reporter" arguing here, anyway, it was not themselves who were scolded.
Jedi's face did not change in the slightest: "Before this, there have been many such situations in Hollywood, and we also extrapolated from past history, and fortunately before this, we missed it!"
Wu Jianye replied calmly: "There was no mistake before, it doesn't mean that there will be no mistake in the future!"
Jiedi: "I really hope that when this movie is released, Director Wu, your confidence will still be with you!"
Wu Jianye: "I also hope that you can still interview us on behalf of The Hollywood Reporter at that time!"
The host then aborted the conversation between Wu Jianye and Jedi and called another reporter.
"Director Wu, hello, I'm Schreck, a reporter from "Vanity Fair", we all know that in addition to being a successful director in Europe and Asia, you are also an excellent musician.
Wu Jianye smiled: "Music is just my personal hobby, and here I am very grateful to those who like me because of music, but I want to say that film is also a fascinating art, and I really like to create a sense of world!"
Schrek immediately asked, "Then can we understand that Director Wu, you are a person with a very strong desire to control?"
Wu Jianye didn't fall into the pit that Schrek dug for him, and said with a smile: "It depends on how you understand the desire to control, film is not only a group art, but also the art of the director, I think even as a group art, the director should be the leader of this group." ”
If Wu Jianye is a well-deserved super start of this press conference, then other people have to look at their own fame to get how many questions they can get at this press conference, and this directly shows the fame of these people.
The other two most asked questions were Isabel Adjani and Mel Gibson.
Even an actress like Whoopi Goldberg, who has been nominated for an Oscar, can't compare with those two in terms of topic heat, as for Tony Godwin, he is now a little transparent, and the only thing to do is sit here with a smile on his face.
Isabel Adjani's personality has never been liked by media reporters, and the battle between the two sides is full of gunpowder.
"Isabel, are you worried about being the Waterloo of your acting career when you play in the movie 'The Ghost Is Not Over?'" Savanna asked.
Isabel Adjani replied calmly, "No!"
"Aren't you worried about Wu Jianye's ability to understand the North American market as a Chinese director?" Savannah continued.
"No!" Isabel Adjani's answer was as simple as that.
But Savannah obviously didn't want to let Isabel Adjani go like that," Although Director Wu has always denied your previous relationship before, according to the information we have gotten, since Director Wu came to Hollywood, you have stayed in the hotel where he lives, and you didn't move out until a few days ago, and your relationship can be traced back to the time of the Berlin Film Festival, and you also agreed to participate in this movie at that time, so can we understand that you were carried away by love at that time, and now you have no choice but to participate in this movie because you have signed a contract and can't quit?"
Isabel Adjani only raised her eyelids and glanced at Savannah at this time, but her expression was still cold.
"I doubt your IQ to be able to ask such a stupid question, I don't know how "Variety" recruited you!" Isabel Adjani said the most words in response to the question this time.
As the questioner, Savannah's sneer at Isabel Adjani changed slightly, and when she wanted to refute, she was interrupted again by the host and called another reporter.
As for Mel Gibson's question, it was also raised on the premise that he was not optimistic about the movie "Ghost Love".
"Mel, your development in Hollywood is very smooth now, and "Lethal Weapon 2" will be released soon, you could have chosen a more relaxed path to go, such as choosing to cooperate with well-known Hollywood directors, but now you have chosen Wu Jianye's "Ghost Love", is it because of the high salary given by Phantom Entertainment?"
Mel Gibson is not a good person, and sneered directly: "No matter what I participate in that director's work, I will get the salary I deserve, as for why I cooperate with Director Wu, I don't think mortals like you will understand this kind of question!"
.......
The whole press conference can be said to be held in such an atmosphere full of gunpowder, and you can imagine what these media will say when these reports come out tomorrow.
After the press conference, Wu Jianye and the others walked back to the backstage, and Tony Godwin, who had been trying to be a little transparent, walked in the crowd, looking at the big guys in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion, these people are really strong.......
Thinking about the whole hour and a half of questioning time, Tony Godwin was still very disappointed that there was no reporter to ask him questions, and he also wanted his family to see what he said at the press conference.
Mel Gibson walked next to Wu Jianye and said with a smile: "Director Wu, tomorrow is the premiere of "Lethal Weapon 2", and Warner's invitation has been sent to Phantom Entertainment!"
When there is a movie premiere in Hollywood, as the producer and distributor, they will use their relationships to invite celebrities from all walks of life to attend the premiere, and they are relatively very formal, and they will send an invitation letter to each other.
Wu Jianye had promised that Mel Gibson would participate in the premiere of "Lethal Weapon 2", and after returning home, as the producer of this movie, he sent an invitation to Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye smiled: "Don't worry, I will be there on time." ”
Mel Gibson nodded, and said to Isabel Adjani: "Isabel, why don't you come with Director Wu tomorrow!"
You are allowed to bring your partner on the invitation.
Isabel Adjani didn't have the coldness she had at the press conference at this time, and said with a smile: "It depends on what Director Wu means!"
Wu Jianye smiled: "It's naturally better to have a beautiful companion!"
Although the two no longer live together, the previous relationship has not been directly broken, and now the relationship between the two is more pure.
Mel Gibson laughed, "Well, that's it!"
After a few more conversations, Mel Gibson left Phantom Entertainment, and the others took their leave.
Only Wu Jianye and Isabel Adjani remained.
Isabel Adjani looked at Wu Jianye with a smile and said, "Why don't you go to my side today?"
Wu Jianye naturally didn't refuse such an invitation, "Okay, wait for me to talk to the phantom first!"
Then Wu Jianye came to Linda's office, and after Linda saw Wu Jianye, the sadness on her face was not concealed in the slightest.
"What's the situation?" Wu Jianye asked curiously.
"Let you hold a press conference, not to quarrel with reporters, now it's okay, tomorrow's entertainment reports in the United States will probably have to hack you!" Linda said helplessly.
She already knew what had just been reported, and although she had already guessed that the press conference would not be very friendly, she was still very worried about the smell of gunpowder.
Wu Jianye said nonchalantly: "What's there to worry about, as long as the movie "People and Ghosts" keeps its popularity, as for the good or bad, I don't care about it now, besides, even if we tell them with good words, will they say that this movie is good?"
Linda: "Although this is true, such a report will definitely affect some potential audiences. ”
"They will walk into the cinema after the movie is released!" After speaking, Wu Jianye waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's nothing, I'm leaving!"
After saying that, Wu Jianye left Linda's office in style, and then followed Isabel Adjani back to her apartment.
By the next day, newspapers across the United States had already reported the contents of yesterday's press conference of "People and Ghosts.......
