Chapter 410: Confess and Be Lenient!(The third is to ask for a subscription!Ask for a monthly pass!Ask for a recommendation ticket!)
On the morning of July 21, after Tang An dealt with some things in the company in the morning, he rushed to the Four Seasons Hotel near Chaoyang Park to hold a press conference on the box office of "Painted Skin 2" exceeding 400 million.
The last celebration press conference was the day before the release of "The King's Feast", and this time it was the day before the release of "Tangshan Earthquake", which can build momentum for the movie and allow "Painted Skin 2" to hold up a little longer under the impact of "Tangshan Earthquake".
Several senior executives of the group also came to the hotel, inviting hundreds of journalists and many industry peers, as well as some audiences.
The main creators of the crew also rushed back from out of town a day in advance, and they were all waiting for them to put on makeup.
Greeted the CEOs of various companies and entered the large conference hall of nearly 1,000 square meters.
The host was Tu Wei invited by the movie channel, and after an opening remark, in the warm applause of the scene, Tang An took the creators into the venue.
As he walked up to the stage, he waved to the audience, and waited for the applause to stop a little before he spoke.
"Welcome all friends in the industry, all media friends, and all audience friends to come and participate in the press conference of the movie "Painted Skin 2"......"
"In the early hours of this morning, the mainland box office of "Painted Skin 2", a costume blockbuster with oriental magic, has exceeded the 400 million mark......"
The huge LCD screen behind it also began to flash some shots from the movie, as well as the grand scene of various movie theaters, groups of numbers interspersed with them, and finally frozen on the 400512894.
Each said some thoughts, and the actor Chen Kun also revealed that he was too nervous on the day of the release and had been looking forward to the box office.
On the first night of the release, he wanted to go to the cinema in disguise to see the audience's reaction, but when he got there, there were no tickets, so he had to spend an extra thirty yuan to buy a scalper ticket.
Everything goes according to the normal flow, and the braggadocio is the braggart.
The upcoming "Tangshan Earthquake" will inevitably be mentioned, and they will all deal with it one by one.
A reporter suddenly asked "Edge of Tomorrow", how is the post-production, and when will it be released.
"Thank you for your concern, "Edge of Tomorrow" is in post-production, everything is going well, the release date is still tentatively scheduled for early December, I hope you will help promote it at that time. Tang An said with a smile.
The reporter then asked, "Director Tang is shooting a 3D movie for the first time, is it inspired by "Avatar"?"
"Actually, the previous movies such as "Ice Age 3" and "Gravity" were also in 3D, and I had the idea of shooting a 3D movie when I saw that immersive feeling, and because the previous technology had not been mature, I only made up my mind last year. ”
The topic suddenly turned to "Edge of Tomorrow", although it was a little abrupt, but everyone at the scene didn't think it was strange.
Except for those actors, who were a little unhappy, the box office was originally 400 million, and they should also do a good job of publicity and show their faces, and change the image of hitting the street before, but they didn't expect it to become Tang An's one-man show again.
But I was happy to be invited to some audiences, everyone has seen "Painted Skin 2", if you can know some news about "Edge of Tomorrow", it will be worth the trip.
The audience is waiting for something concrete, such as the plot of the movie and the relationship between the characters played by the actors.
The press conference went on as usual, but it changed from the celebration of "Painted Skin 2" to the meeting of "Edge of Tomorrow".
As he spoke, the reporter before talked about the proliferation of pseudo-3D movies in the first half of the year.
When asked what he thought of these pseudo-3D movies, Tang An immediately reprimanded with righteous words, "I personally hate this kind of shoddy behavior in front of the audience by putting on a 3D name, and I also hope that the audience and friends will not be deceived and resolutely resist this kind of pseudo-3D movies!"
"Then is Edge of Tomorrow a 3D real shot?" the reporter then asked.
As soon as these words were asked, everyone thought that they were looking for fault at this time, with Tang An's character and the quality of previous movies, how could it be pseudo-3D.
However, Tang An's answer surprised them.
"No, due to the lack of top-notch 3D equipment, Edge of Tomorrow was converted from 2D to 3D. ”
Tang An didn't seem surprised by this question at all, and he didn't feel annoyed by the reporter's smashing of the field, and said this sentence with a slight smile.
But these words were no less than a thunderbolt from the sky in the ears of everyone at the scene.
What's that?
Is Edge of Tomorrow a 3D transformation?
Is it pseudo-3D?
In the first half of this year, several transformations 3D made the audience miserable, and the transformation 3D was almost labeled as pseudo-3D, and now when I heard Tang An say that "Edge of Tomorrow" is a transformation of 3D, I subconsciously thought that this was also pseudo-3D.
"I'll go, didn't I hear clearly, Tang An just said that "Edge of Tomorrow" is a transformation of 3D?"
"I heard it too, isn't the transformation of 3D a pseudo-3D?"
"I didn't expect Tang An to also fall, and even made a pseudo 3D to cheat money. ”
"Alas, I'll just say, Tang An became a businessman after opening the company, and businessmen must make money first, he is no longer a pure director!"
......
“”
The sound of discussion grew from small to large, and slowly the whole grand ballroom became more and more noisy, and the sound of hundreds of people talking was no lower than the sound of hundreds of ducks.
Not only the audience, but most of the industry people who don't know the truth, as well as reporters, are talking about it.
These reporters are now almost in love with the reporter who brought the topic to "Edge of Tomorrow" just now.
With this news, it is definitely the front page of today and tomorrow, or even a week or half a month in the future!
Big news = bonus = promotion and salary increase, and they suddenly became more and more excited.
Among them, there are also some well-informed ones, at least the senior executives of major companies know that after all, Tang An's movies have always been the focus of their attention.
Many people in the circle look like they are watching a good show, and the transformation of 3D has been labeled as pseudo-3D, and now they are being asked by reporters, but they want to see how Tang An copies.
Tang An's admission of being so happy is also confusing, isn't he worried if he doesn't hide it at all.
However, seeing that Yu Dong and Wang Changtian, one of the film investors, did not have any panicked expressions on their faces, they didn't seem to be surprised by this at all, and some smart people immediately understood.
The CEO of a medium-sized film and television company smiled at Yu Dong, who was sitting in a row in front of him, and asked, "Yu Dong, are you ready at this time?"
is the only one to explain, it broke out in advance, confessed leniently, there are still a few months before the release, and there is still a public relations opportunity at this time, otherwise if it is used by someone with a heart two days before the release, it is likely to cause a box office avalanche!
"I can't hide whether it's a transformation or not, so I should confess it to the audience in advance. Yu Dong didn't deny it, and said with a smile.
