Mid-January.

In Beijing, China World Summit Wing, the magic-themed movie "Shocking Demon Thieves", which has been prepared for 4 months, will hold a kick-off press conference here.

Now that the Chinese New Year stalls have ended, as of the early hours of this morning, the box office of "Assembly Number", which has been in theaters for 25 days, has exceeded 200 million, and a total of 228 million box office has been won in China, catching up with the annual box office record set by "The Wind".

And the box office of "Casting a Name", which has been released for 31 days, has not yet exceeded 100 million, only 194 million.

Although it only got 6.7 million box office in seven days last week, and the single-day box office fell below the million mark, it is not difficult to break 200 million.

Four 200 million box office movies a year, three domestic blockbusters!

There is no doubt that the domestic film market is still developing rapidly, steadily and healthily.

As the holder of the annual box office championship, Tang An, who has even beaten Hollywood Autobots, the three superstars and the great director Feng Xiaogang, the launch conference of his new film naturally attracted the attention of the entire industry.

In the grand ballroom, dozens of photographers were spread around, and nearly 1,000 reporters and industry insiders gathered together.

"It's been a bit long to prepare for "Shocking Demon Thieves" this time, and it's going to be 5 months now!"

A young man in the front row with a penguin-logo microphone sighed.

As an entertainment reporter, I have basically watched all the famous film and television dramas in China.

It's because the more you watch, the more you have a bad appetite, if it weren't for his profession, he wouldn't have watched a movie ticket.

Not... In the gift of a large vat of popcorn and a large drink will not go.

Unless you arrange a cute girl to watch ^_^ it together

In the past, filming started almost in November, just in time for the summer file, but now on January 13th, it is two months late, which means that the release will be even later, and it may not even catch up with the summer file.

"5 months is nothing, the longer the preparation time, the greater the probability of making a good film!" said the Sohu reporter next to him.

"To prepare for such a long time, you must have used a lot of large-scale special effects, otherwise I really don't know where to spend the 150 million!"

"A magic-themed movie, I don't know what story it will tell, so I can afford the word shocking!"

"Wait, Tang An has never disappointed the audience, and I think this time will be no exception. ”

At ten o'clock in the morning, Tang An entered the venue with all the leading actors, Wang Zhongjun, chairman of Huayi, Chen Guozhang, director of the production department, Zhang Yijun, director of the public relations department, Zhao Jun, deputy director of the production department, and Xu Yanyun, who represented Tang An's studio, also sat down one by one.

Zhang Yijun still plays the role of press officer.

Wang Zhongjun, on behalf of Hua Yi, spoke first.

"Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to participate in the launch conference of the magic crime blockbuster "Shocking Demon Thieves" produced by our Huayi and Tang'an Film and Television Studios. ”

went on to talk about a lot of difficulties in the preparation process, how hard Tang An worked to write the script, staying up until the early hours of the morning every day, the location team running all over the world, the set team working overtime to build a studio, and how hard the actors worked to memorize lines and familiarize themselves with the characters in the past two months.

After speaking, there was another warm applause from the audience.

Xu Yanyun then said something similar, and then the microphone was handed over to Tang An.

"Everyone knows that this is the fifth film I have directed, and every film, no matter what genre it is, how much it costs, there will be all kinds of difficulties from preparation to painting. ”

""Amazing Demon Thieves" is the longest preparation time among my five films, due to the particularity of the subject matter, I prepared the storyboard script for more than two months, and every part of it requires perfect ......"

The theme of magic must not let the audience see the loopholes and goofs of the magic inside, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to the movie.

Next, the reporter began to ask questions.

Naturally, the press officer nodded to the boss of the portal, the reporter of Xinlang News, who asked the first question.

"Hello Director Tang, this time you choose this magic-themed movie, what kind of magic will you perform in the film to echo the shocking word of the title?"

""Shocking Demon Thieves" is a movie with the theme of magic crimes, that is, using magic to commit crimes, and taking a shocking name, you can diverge your thinking, what crimes can be shocking, and can be related to magic!"

Tang An smiled slightly, sold a pass, and did not point it out directly.

Diverge you***, isn't this asking you!

The reporters didn't say 10,000 sentences in their hearts, and they almost suffered internal injuries in their hearts.

In fact, not to mention these reporters, except for a few actors and Wang Zhongjun at the scene, other industry insiders know very little about the details of the movie.

"Mr. Sun, you and Huayi often have business dealings, so you don't know the details of this film!"

"How can I have such a great ability, I have inquired a few times, but there is no information at all!"

"Why do you say they hide so deeply, they don't even know a plot. ”

.....

The reporters also know Tang An's temperament, as long as it is something he doesn't want to say, you just break the casserole...

No, even knocking his head through it wouldn't find anything useful.

However, just as the reporter was about to continue to ask, Tang An said, "Since everyone can't guess, then I'll say it." ”

"Damn, what the hell are you doing, big brother!"

"Why did you realize it today, something is wrong!"

"Is this still Tang An, so honest!"

"It's not easy, Tang An has been making movies for 4 years and finally understands the truth of "confession and leniency"!"

Everyone pricked up their ears one after another, waiting for Tang An's answer.

Either with a voice recorder on or with a pen in hand to prepare for the record.

Tang An can't help it, these reporters gave up after asking once, and they didn't have the professionalism to break the casserole and ask to the end.

In this case, a large group of reporters should be chasing, crying, and shouting for him to answer, which can show Tang An's status.

Now they're all so honest, if they don't answer, they won't ask, and they can still pretend happily!

Ahem!

After organizing the language, Tang An straightened the microphone and slowly spoke to everyone.

"In a huge, luxurious performance hall in Aomen, the team of four well-known magicians, Deng Chao, Tang Yan, Liu Ye, and Deng Kai, cooperated seamlessly, and under the witness of tens of thousands of people, more than 2,000 kilometers away, they stole more than 2 million Singapore dollars from a bank in Singapore, which caused a sensation at the scene and even around the world, and can be called the most bizarre bank robbery in history!"

"Interpol Liao Fan and Yu Nan were ordered to investigate the four people, but because they had a perfect alibi, there was not enough evidence to convict, so they had no choice but to turn to Mr. Wu Gang, a very famous magic trick revealer in the industry!"

As Tang An said the plot word by word, the entire press conference scene instantly quieted down, and there were no other superfluous voices, only Tang An was talking there alone.

The birds were silent, or they were shocked by Tang An's words.

All of them looked dumbfounded!

It's not uncommon to use magic to rob a bank, but everyone guesses that they use hypnosis or something like that, or a time lag, digging a tunnel from below and quickly moving to the performance site.

But this is more than 2,000 kilometers away, even if the money is snatched out in advance, the bank will already find out when it is shipped over!

And Tang An also said just now, there is a perfect alibi, which is simply seamless, and it can be called the most perfect robbery method in history!
