Chapter 270: More ambitious than the old king next door
The old king of the world is no longer alive! Is there anything funny about this?
Many people looked at Chen Huatao suspiciously.
Why can't Chen Huatao laugh?
That's because the people present, in addition to Zhang Pu himself, also he, Chen Huatao, knew that the king of the world was not only alive, but also in front of them.
In front of others, ask them whether the news is true or false!
Isn't that funny?
Zhang Pu didn't think that the reporter was full of malice towards him.
After all, he didn't know that Zhang Pu was the king of the world.
Chen Huatao and Zhang Pu's reactions were a little weird.
This inevitably leads to reverie.
A reporter who is good at observing words and emotions seems to have seen some signs, and then he has a flash of inspiration and remembers Zhang Pu's previous sentence.
"Director Zhang, you just said that the copyright of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" has always been in your hands, is it all the copyright?" The reporter then asked, "Are you the author of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"?"
The reporter's last words trembled a little, showing his excitement at this time.
He felt like he had discovered a big secret.
If it is true, it is definitely a shocking revelation!
The author of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" has a lot of discussion on the Internet now.
The author of this great god who created the "tomb robbery stream", but the most talked about is not that he disappeared after he became a god in a book, but his pen name.
It was rumored on the Internet that he was not alive because a netizen ridiculed his pen name.
said that after his "old king" was discovered, he was beaten to death by "many" parties who were extremely angry.
That's why he disappeared after being a god.
"Applaud your wit!" Zhang Pu smiled and clapped twice.
As soon as he said this, the scene was stunned at first, and then there was a commotion.
Zhang Pu is admitting that he is the king of the world?
"Ghost Blows the Lamp" was written by him?
Who would have thought that the king of the world would be Zhang Pu?
During his participation in "New Singer-Songwriter", he wrote such a best-seller?
How is this possible?
You must know that during his participation in "New Singer-Songwriter", he created a lot of highly sung songs!
The world of geniuses, we really don't understand.
However, after thinking about it, it doesn't seem so shocking.
Zhang Pu's talent in screenwriting is so amazing, so it seems reasonable for him to write a bestseller.
At this time, everyone could understand why Chen Huatao couldn't help laughing.
Asking him in front of people if he is no longer alive is indeed a bit ......
"Director Zhang, when "Ghost Blows the Lantern" was serialized, you should still be participating in "New Singer-Songwriter", right? What was your original intention in writing this at that time?" The reporter immediately asked his doubts.
"Isn't "Crazy Stone" unable to attract investment for some reason? Living people can't be suffocated by urine, right? So I'm ready to raise my own money to invest. Writing this, in fact, is the same as participating in "New Singer-Songwriter", that is, trying to see if you can make money to make movies. Cast a wide net and you can always catch two fish. ”
"You should all know what happened next. Zhang Pu continued, "I have the money to make movies, so I didn't continue to write." ”
Why did the king of the world disappear after the book was sealed as a god, and now the mystery has been solved.
It's just that people don't expect that the reason is like this.
Zhang Pu had the money to make movies, not only did he not continue to write, but he also quit the music scene directly.
Whether it's writing or participating in "New Singer-Songwriter", it's just Zhang Pu making a movie in order to raise money.
Those highly sung songs, this one that is so popular, was born by Zhang Pu in order to raise money to make a movie.
That's really ......
I don't know how his fans and book fans felt when they found out.
"Director Zhang, countless people on the Internet ridiculed your pen name, and even once recognized the author's surname Wang, what do you think about this? What were the reasons for choosing such a special pen name in the first place?" A reporter hurriedly asked, "Some people say that the reason why you took this pen name is because you are more ambitious than the old Wang next door! What do you think of this?"
"Poof!"
This time, it wasn't just Chen Huatao who laughed.
Tang Rui, Huang Ye, Zhang Yu and others couldn't help laughing.
The king of the world is more ambitious than the king next door?
What the hell is this!
The old king next door just looks at the next door, and the old king of the world focuses on the world?
"It's just a matter of taking it, what's the matter. Zhang Pu shook his head and said, "Can you interview online writers and ask them if their pen names are really what they thought of at the beginning?"
"I didn't think it was this pen name at all, and I changed countless times, but unfortunately they were all registered in advance. All then could only casually take the pen name of the 'long king of the world'. In the world, there is naturally no need to explain, Changwang, there is no other meaning, that is, half of the Zhang character and the Pu character are taken each. It's just that this pen name was also registered, so I didn't think much about it, so I changed it. ”
"It's as simple as this, and it has nothing to do with the old king next door. Zhang Pu said.
Where would he have thought that a pen name would be made up by netizens, and eventually become a stalk.
The old king next door was weak in front of the old king of the world.
"Mr. Chen, for what reason did you accept Director Zhang's invitation?"
The reporter is no longer entangled in the matter that Zhang Pu is the author of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".
There's not a lot to dig into.
What's more, among the people present, Zhang Pu has many popular topics, but Chen Huatao and Tang Rui are definitely not weak.
"When he takes the initiative to invite me, I guess I won't be able to wait until the flowers are gone. Chen Huatao said, "I took the initiative to propose this cooperation many times and won it. ”
"Brother Tao said it's small. You're one of the actors I'd love to work with the most. I didn't invite before, I'm afraid I won't be invited, and I can't afford to invite you!" Zhang Pu said with a smile and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have waited until now to shoot "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"!"
"Director Zhang, there are several stories in "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". Another reporter asked Zhang Pu and said, "Which story is adapted from "Looking for the Dragon"?"
"It's not exactly adapted from the original book, but I believe it's as authentic as the original book. Zhang Pu said with a smile.
At the launch conference, most of the questions revolved around Zhang Pu and Chen Huatao, followed by Tang Rui, and the others were ignored by the media.
Even if Zhang Pu leads them from time to time, it will inevitably be overshadowed in front of him, Chen Huatao and others.
The launch conference of "Looking for the Dragon" was undoubtedly a success.
Many media have reported on it, especially at the press conference, it was revealed that Zhang Pu is the original author of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", which is more topical than this movie to be filmed.
The legendary god in the online literature industry turned out to be the well-known director Zhang Pu.
And his original intention in writing this was just to raise money to make "Crazy Stone"?
It's unbelievable.
But the facts are in front of everyone, and they can't believe it!
If Zhang Pu was not the king of the world, he would not be able to, and he would not dare to say this.
At this time, many people understand why those film and television companies and famous directors have returned.
Zhang Pu is a director himself, how can he sell the copyright?
The original author of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is Zhang Pu, and he is about to adapt it into a movie and put it on the big screen.
This is definitely great news for fans.
Adapted by the original author and directed, can it still disappoint fans?
Zhang Pu's directing level is not bad!
And this also makes many film and television companies focus on the copyright of those tomb robbing networks that follow the trend.
Although it is a work that follows the trend, there is no shortage of good works.
Of course, the influence is difficult to compare with "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".
Zhang Pu's new film, which has not yet started filming, is popular again.
This time the fire is not because of the film lineup, but the film itself.
This popularity comes from the hot news that Zhang Pu is the king of the world, and also from the popularity of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" itself.
However, the heat didn't last long.
There is no shortage of topics in the entertainment industry to start over.
Soon, "Jingwu Hero" was released, a kung fu film written by Zhang Pu and directed by Yuan Hong, which still attracted many fans to watch.
And then...... The film went viral.
On the first day of release, it won 60 million at the box office, although it was far from the single-day box office of those films released during the Spring Festival, but it still topped the single-day box office list.
Of course, this has something to do with the fact that it is the off-season for movie-watching.
Otherwise, how could tens of millions of single-day box office reach the top of the list.
The box office on the first day still made everyone happy.
Judging by the reactions from all sides, the movie seems to be on fire.
Although it is not as popular as the popular film, the box office should not be bad.
The reputation of the film is also extremely good.
Whether it is the rating of the movie network or the light and shadow network, the score has exceeded nine points.
Moreover, the discussion of the film on the Internet is still very amazing.
The box office of this movie may not be a big hit, but a small hit is still very possible.
Sure enough, the box office came out on the second day, confirming this.
On the second day, the box office did not fall but increased, although the increase was not much, not breaking 60 million, but it did not decline, which is good news.
130 million in two days, not only returned to the capital, but also made a small profit.
Moreover, kung fu films still have a deep market foundation in countries and regions such as Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia.
Of course, Oriental DreamWorks didn't expect the film to be released in Japan.
But Southeast Asia should have a good box office.
The film became popular, and many of the plots in it were talked about, especially the part where Chen Zhen kicked the gym, which was regarded by many critics as one of the most classic clips of kung fu movies.
And Zhang Chu, as the leading actor, naturally became a little popular.
Although he can't be compared to those old kung fu stars, he is young and his potential is amazing.
Among actors of his age, there are too few who can do kung fu.
What's more, Zhang Chu's appearance conditions are also extremely good.
Zhang Chu also relied on this film to show his advantages.
After the film was released, Zhang Chu received a lot more invitations, but unfortunately most of them were supporting roles.
A "Jingwu Hero" is not enough to make people believe that Zhang Chu can support a film.
The film became popular, and many people saw that kung fu movies still have a large market.
