Chapter 302: The Movie Finally Begins
The next day, Wang Ye saw Jiang Wen for the first time.
Jiang Wen complained that he drank too much yesterday, and said that he would not drink in the future, Wang Ye just smiled when he heard it, is it possible?
For a person who loves to drink, this is almost impossible, and Jiang Wen usually socializes a lot.
Just listen to this kind of talk.
A huge promotional still of "Let the Bullets Fly" hangs high above the studio and can be seen from afar.
This is the first cooperation between a famous screenwriter and a famous director, although Wang Ye is only an investment, but it has also attracted a lot of attention, what kind of sparks can the two ghosts collide with, it is very exciting.
Reporters and fans also waited outside the door early.
Waiting for the movie to be released.
Although Wang Ye is only investing in this movie, he also attaches great importance to it, this movie has invested a lot, production and publicity, with a total investment of more than 200 million, whether he can make money or not, it depends on the last trembling.
Wang Ye and Jiang Wen are both big names in the industry, so there are a lot of big names in the circle to cheer.
Needless to say, the leading actors involved in the production, in addition to the two international actors, Zhou Yufa and Uncle Ge, there is also Liu Jialin, the actress, who can be described as a strong lineup.
They all have a huge number of loyal fans behind them.
Coupled with Wang Ye and Jiang Wen, as long as the quality of the movie is not too bad and the cost is recovered, the problem should not be big, it depends on what kind of results can be achieved in the end.
"Mr. Wang, what is the reason for this cooperation between you and Director Jiang?"
As the two protagonists today, after the reporter caught it, he had no intention of letting it go.
After thinking for a while, Wang Ye said: "Talent, everyone knows that our Director Jiang is known as a talented director, and he has won several international awards before this. ”
"Before the cooperation, the director I wanted to work with the most was Director Jiang, but I didn't have a chance, until one day Director Jiang found me, said that he had a good script in his hand, and asked me if I was interested. ”
Then the reporter handed the microphone to Jiang Wen and asked, "Director Jiang, what is the reason why you are looking for Teacher Wang?"
Jiang Wendao: "Of course it's money, everyone knows that my filming is very expensive, and I really want to thank Mr. Wang here, and I decided to invest in me without saying a word, thank you sincerely."
Of course, before looking for Mr. Wang, I had heard of Mr. Wang's name for a long time, not to mention thunder, it was also about to hear the cocoon, and I heard that he was a very talented screenwriter, so I came with a curious attitude.
As soon as we met, I was impressed by Mr. Wang's talent......"
The reporters couldn't listen to it, what do these two mean, is it interesting to praise each other?
It's not that that we want to hear, it's the news that's going to be big.
"Mr. Wang, can you predict the box office of this movie?" another reporter asked.
"Hmm......" Wang Ye hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "About 700 million to 800 million." ”
Eight hundred million?
Hiss......
Even Jiang Wen next to him glanced at Wang Ye in surprise.
I thought to myself, "Brother, are you serious? Don't dig a hole for yourself." ”
The reporters were even more excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and the microphone kept moving forward, and they were all about to reach Wang Ye's mouth. After asking for so long, I finally asked for something.
Wang Ye opened his mouth and compared, he couldn't swallow such a thick microphone.
800 million box office, I really dare to say.
Although the total domestic box office has been growing every year in recent years, no movie has yet exceeded 800 million, and if it does, it will be a historic moment.
At present, the highest box office in China is still Feng Gang's "Aftershock", less than 700 million, if the box office can really reach 800 million, then Wang Ye and Jiang Wen will make history.
"What Mr. Wang means is expectation, and as an investor, of course, he hopes that the higher the box office of the movie, the better. As a director, Jiang Wen is still a little lacking in confidence, and at present, no film director in China can reach the entire height, even if it is himself, he does not have this confidence.
If you want to come back, in front of these reporters, it is not a moment to brag, once you don't achieve this result, you will be scolded to death at that time.
He doesn't care, he has always had something to say in front of reporters, and he speaks more sharply, every time the reporter will catch his words, report it fiercely, and then usher in countless netizens' abuse.
But this time, he felt that he was too arrogant, 800 million, and he felt that this cowhide was a bit big, and he had no bottom in his heart.
The reporter didn't pay attention to Jiang Wen, and finally seized an opportunity, how could they miss it.
"Mr. Wang, the box office has exceeded 800 million, are you sure you are not bragging?"
Wang Ye smiled faintly: "Please note, I am not talking about 800 million, but between 700 million and 800 million, which is an interval value, if you don't understand, you can go back and ask your physical education teacher." ”
Ask the PE teacher?
Are you sure this isn't a math problem?
"Why do you ask the PE teacher?" asked a young reporter, stupidly.
"I don't even know the interval value, I suspect that your math is taught by the physical education teacher, if you go back and ask the math teacher, I'm afraid your math teacher will get angry. ”
"Uh......"
"I feel like you're insulting us. ”
"Is there any evidence?"
Jiang Wen was stunned when he watched from the sidelines, when he wanted to answer the reporter's question by himself, he was already direct enough, but he didn't expect Wang Ye to be more direct, this is a direct scolding.
It's really a role model for my generation, admire.
Aren't you afraid of reporters writing blindly?
And Wang Ye didn't care.
The reporters seem to have gotten used to it, and to say that Wang Ye's attitude towards them is better than before.
Thinking of the past, it was called a ruthless, slightly offended, and the questions asked did not meet Wang Ye's wishes, so he was directly blacklisted, and he will no longer accept interviews with these blacklisted reporters in the future.
Those reporters who were blacklisted don't seem to have been released yet.
A ruthless one.
"But Mr. Wang, I still think you're bragging, even if it's 700 million, if I'm not mistaken, it's the first in the history of the domestic box office. ”
"Are you sure this movie will do this well?"
Wang Ye said unhurriedly: "I really doubt how you learned the language, it turned out to be a prediction, it must be wrong."
As for whether it is accurate or not, then I don't know, and I am not a god stick or a fortune teller. ”
"Uh......"
After asking and asking, I found that this question was asked in vain, and now it has become meaningless.
The reporters were very helpless at this time, but they couldn't do anything to Wang Ye.
After answering the reporter's question, Wang Ye went directly into the theater and left Jiang Wen alone to pick up the guests.
"Lao Wang, come and smoke a cigar, this cigar was specially brought back to me by a friend of mine from abroad. As soon as Xu Hu saw Wang Ye enter his office, he went up with a courteous face.
Cigarettes and water.
Wang Ye looked at Xu Hu vigilantly, and did not answer, but asked, "Something to say." ”
Xu Hu smiled and said: "Lao Wang, you see that our 'Avenue of Stars' is still bare, you said that you are too, you are not in a hurry at all, and I don't know how to help Zhang Luo." ”
This time, there were a lot of actors, actresses, and many of them were international, so Xu Hu paid attention to them.
Wang Ye thought about it, and he was completely in charge of this theater line, and he was a little embarrassed to talk about it.
"Okay, no problem, I'll get it for you later. ”
……
The movie has finally begun.
