Chapter 303: A Little Storm
A famous book can allow different people to see different truths.
From Journey to the West, some people see struggle, some people see conspiracy, and Zhou Jin tends to practice.
Zhu Bajie is desire, Sun Wukong is ideal, and Tang Sanzang is a mortal fetus in the flesh, stumbling west with ideals and desires.
But any human being can probably fit into this framework.
Zhou Xingchi is naturally no exception.
There are too many articles to analyze Xingye's personality and past, and even he himself admits that his family was too poor when he was young, so he valued money very much when he grew up.
Because I missed love when I was young, and later when I got older, I stopped pursuing love and attributed it to "bad luck".
Come to think of it, he should still regret it a little.
Zhou Jin didn't expect to rely on a big vernacular to make Xing Ye realize that it was more unreliable than crossing.
He just wants to get as close to Xing Ye's state of mind as possible, and if he can move him, it will naturally be the best.
That night, "Border Storm" held a press conference in the imperial capital and fired the first shot against the big ship.
Zhou Jin didn't even change his clothes, took a taxi, and went straight to the next hotel.
The routine of the press conference is similar, a large number of media are invited to come, and then the main creator comes on the stage and blows the movie to the sky.
It's just that there are a little less media here today.
Zhou Jin came to the backstage, glanced ahead, and found that the rows of little red chairs were only about half sitting.
"Don't look at it, if you can have this half, you still look at the face of you and Brother Honglei," Chen Zhiqian leaned over coldly.
"Tut-tut, Brother Honglei...... I thought you called him Brother Sun," Zhou Jin turned around and smiled.
"If you want, I can call you Brother Zhou," Chen Zhiqian put her arm on his shoulder, in a good mood.
"Border Storm" is the first movie she made, she doesn't care about the box office, and if it can be released in theaters, it will be considered a victory.
"It's better to excuse me, you're tormenting me all the time," Zhou Jin stepped back and pulled her arm down.
"Phew, am I that old?" Chen Zhiqian glanced at him and threw over a stack of scripts, "It's all about you at night, prepare it yourself." ”
"Huh, that's it?"
"Hmph, the first movie after the eighth master became famous, I don't know how many people are staring at you, pay attention to yourself. ”
Chen Zhiqian left in a dashing manner after mentioning a word, Zhou Jin took the script very hard, found a place to sit down, and began to prepare the answer.
Q: "Why did you want to make 'Border'?"
What kind of problem is this, I will tell you, was it caught by Chen Zhiqian to save the scene?
Ask again: "After filming "Border Storm", what is your biggest gain and regret?"
The harvest is money, and the regret is that I didn't get the money.
He asked again: "Who do you think is better, you or Sun Honglei?"
Nonsense, of course it's me.
......
After waiting for Zhou Jin to solve all those boring problems, several leading actors also arrived.
In fact, there are few people, Yang Sanjilang is preparing for his own concert, Ni Dahong doesn't like to get involved in this kind of occasion, Sun Honglei, Wang Luodan, and Song Yi came.
Although they are in the same imperial capital, after filming "Guns and Roses", Zhou Jin basically never heard from her.
On the contrary, Song Yi sees Zhou Jin on the Internet and TV every day, and it is all kinds of shows.
"I heard that you opened a bar in Houhai?" she changed into a long black dress and smiled.
Zhou Jin put away the script, "Well, it's quite interesting to have time to play." ”
immediately added, "Sisi went out to film, at least four or five months before ......"
, as soon as the words came out, Zhou Jin wanted to slap himself.
Song Yi put away her skirt, sat down beside him, and said with a smile: "Well, I'll go and play with the two of you when I have time." ”
"That's not a coincidence, after a while, I'm going to go out to film...... What about you, what are you up to?"
"I'm not busy, I rehearse dramas every day, and I go to the beach to play on holidays. ”
"You're so comfortable...... Hmm, it's almost time," Zhou Jin raised his head and looked, "It's time for us to play, you're attending the press conference for the first time, follow me later, and Honglei ......"
Song Yi didn't say anything, and looked at him with some resentment.
"Huh, what's wrong?"
Zhou Jin was still thinking, I didn't recruit you either, so I heard the host at the front desk holding the microphone and said loudly: "Now with warm applause, please use warm applause, director Chen Er, producer Chen Zhiqian, starring Sun Honglei, Wang Luodan, Zhou Jin ......"
No Song Yi?
"Come on stage, I'll be fine, I'll applaud you below," Song Yi pushed him, pretending to smile easily.
Tsk, it's obviously quite aggrieved, and you appease me in turn?
Zhou Jin didn't say much, silently followed behind Wang Luodan and walked to the front of the stage.
In front of them were journalists with long guns and short guns, and behind them was a huge propaganda poster.
Speaking of which, "Border Storm" really has no selling points, the director and producer are unknown, among the several leading actors, Wang Luodan can't support the box office at all, and the only gimmick is Zhou Jin and Sun Honglei.
After Brother Honglei became popular by relying on Liu Huaqiang, he has not been a big brother for many years, and this time he played the black boss again, scratching the itch of many media.
And after Zhou Jin became famous from "Step by Step", "Border Storm" is still his first movie, and he is usually low-key, so naturally the media will come to chase him.
The filmmaker obviously also took this into account, and deliberately highlighted the picture of the two holding guns and confronting each other on the poster, and behind them were Wang Luodan, Ni Dahong and Yang Sanjilang.
As for poor Song Yi, not only did she not show her face, but she was not even on the starring list.
It is also common in the entertainment industry to see people serving dishes, no matter how artistic a movie is, when it is released, you have to do your best for the sake of the box office.
Naturally, the distributor will not spend resources on an unknown young actor.
According to the usual practice, the host first took Chen Er and Sun Honglei to tout the movie, and then there was a media interview session.
A reporter stood up and threw out Zhou Jin's first question: "May I ask Zhou Jin, after "Step by Step" became popular, why did he star in a movie with a very different style like "Border Storm"?"
Zhou Jin kept smiling, "I won't always make one type of film, I'm still very young, and I want to try it." ”
"Then after you finished filming "Border Storm", what is your biggest gain and regret?"
Zhou Jin continued to smile, "The harvest is to meet a group of good actors, Brother Honglei, Teacher Ni Dahong, Wang Luodan, and Song Yi, unfortunately, they couldn't all get there and meet everyone......"
He didn't want to be angry, he just planned to remind the publisher euphemistically in front of the media that it is not authentic for you to do this.
The people on the stage were all human spirits, and they reacted in an instant that Zhou Jin had something to say.
Chen Zhiqian spread her hands at him, this matter has nothing to do with me, it was all arranged by the pony galloping.
Sun Honglei was more violent, and pretended to explain: "Teacher Ni Dahong has a drama appointment, so he can't come, Song Yi is...... Hey, what about Song Yi, I remember she came?"
"This ......" The host was quite embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Did you prepare in such a hurry that you forgot to call her up?" he handed him a step.
Zhou Jin made up the knife at the right time, "It's possible, I forgot to print her on the starring list on the poster." ”
Ho Ho ...... The reporters below were immediately excited.
It's going to do something.
They originally thought that they would participate in the press conference and take a red envelope and write casually, but who knew that they would encounter such a breaking point.
What is this called? The two leading actors are angry with the producer in public?
The little host on the stage was going crazy, and he didn't know how to save the scene at all.
Sun Honglei is most unaccustomed to these things, but after rolling in the rivers and lakes for many years, he has become sleek in handling things, and he is no longer the Huaqiang of the year.
Then he smiled and said: "Then it's good for us to welcome Song Yi to the stage, and it will save Xiao Zhou any more regrets." ”
Saying that, he nodded downward, and everyone followed his gaze, only to see Song Yi sitting there with a complicated expression in a corner of the audience.
"Come on," Zhou Jin looked at her and said silently.
"Well," Song Yi nodded, and slowly walked onto the stage in a burst of goodwill or coaxing applause.
The host can be regarded as reacting, and said with a smile: "On behalf of today's organizer, I want to apologize to Brother Jin and Brother Honglei......
Zhou Jin reminded lightly, "You should apologize to her." ”
"Yes, yes," the host nodded hurriedly, "Song Yi, I'm sorry, this kind of mistake happened, we must pay attention to it when we go back......"
Song Yi took Zhou Jin's microphone and laughed at herself, "It's okay, after all, I'm soft-spoken." ”
The host was messy again all of a sudden, and he didn't know how to proceed.
Zhou Jin and Sun Honglei quickly glanced at each other, this girl is black enough.
If she is aggrieved or panicked, she will fall into the inferiority.
Only self-deprecation is wisdom, and by the way, the organizer was forced into a corner.
"Then let's sign a poster together, shall we commemorate it?" In the end, it was Chen Zhiqian who habitually played a round.
The staff at the bottom quickly handed over the marker, and Zhou Jin took it casually and handed it to Song Yi.
In the end, it is a stage actor, Song Yi has a strong psychological quality, calmly walked to the poster, and wrote two delicate small words behind the starring list.
Then he looked at Zhou Jin, opened his mouth, and said silently: "Thank you." ”
Zhou Jin hurriedly turned his head and pretended not to see it.
Sun Honglei can see it clearly, but he is a little puzzled, obviously I am the first to come out for you, why did you run to thank this kid?
A storm was quickly resolved, and the media became excited.
The interview continued, and Zhou Jin had one last question left, and the second-class reporter asked with a wicked smile: "Who do you think is better, you or Sun Honglei?"
This kind of problem is purely provocative, and no one with a little brain will be tricked.
Zhou Jin said: "In the play, I am a policeman, of course I am better, no matter how affectionate and righteous the drug dealer is, he does not deserve to be sympathetic." ”
"Outside the play, just now, it must be better than Brother Honglei. ”
Sun Honglei immediately smiled with satisfaction, and he still heard this.
did a good deed, without praise, he couldn't stand this grievance.
