Chapter 437: Box Office Expectations
"Teacher Zhang, it seems that there are a lot of your book lovers and friends at the scene, let's say hello to everyone. ”
The hostess Yan Xuan's ability to enliven the atmosphere is not bad, she is not the type with big breasts and no brains, she handed over the microphone in her hand to the people around her.
Zhang Chu was still a little nervous, but when he held the microphone in his hand, he calmed down, smiled and said to the book fans screaming and waving their mobile phones in front of him: "Hello everyone, I originally planned to be an invisible person today, but I didn't expect you to be so enthusiastic, thank you!"
Yan Xuan has hosted the premieres of many programs, many of which are adapted movies, but the writers she met before seem to be inferior to Zhang Chu in terms of image, personality, and fan reactions.
As the host, she obviously did her homework in advance, knowing Zhang Chu's identity and achievements, it looks very incredible now!
"Teacher Xiao Zhang, it seems that your popularity is very high, and the fans are crazy. As the author of the original book, have you seen the movie?"
"I watched it during the internal test screening before, and it was very good, and it almost showed everything involved in it. Director Xu Ji's skills are very strong, and the actors are very good. Zhang Chu didn't say anything practical, but started the business to blow each other, anyway, everything is good!
At this time, there were no other main creators on the red carpet, and Yan Xuan certainly wanted to pry more useful things out of Zhang Chu's mouth, instead of these polite words.
So she asked, "We all know that this story is about Officer Fang Mu, but we don't know him as a person. Will we be able to see more of Fang Mu's works in the future?"
This is obviously asking if there are follow-up questions about "Psychological Crime"!
Fans who had been scattered in different parts of the red carpet also gathered in the middle, and they pricked up their ears excitedly, waiting for an answer.
"If I have the opportunity, I will definitely write it, Officer Fang Mu has a lot of stories in front of me, and many wonderful ideas have appeared in my mind. ”
Zhang Chu didn't directly agree, there are too many things to write in his hands now, and almost all of them have to be scheduled for next year or the year after!
This "Psychological Crime" is actually just City Lights, and there are many parts of content in front of it, just need to find it from the system.
It's just that in recent days, the school teachers and some critics have reminded him openly and secretly that he has written too many networks in one go, and if he doesn't want to be defined as an online writer, then he should be cautious about the follow-up content.
was originally an all-rounder in the literary world, so there was no need to confine himself to the Internet field.
Yan Xuan didn't ask any further, she could hear that Zhang Chu didn't want to talk about the sequel, and said very well: "Then we are looking forward to Mr. Xiao Zhang's new work in the future, in addition, Mr. Xiao Zhang's complete work "Sou Shen Ji" has been listed nationwide, and friends who like it can buy it and read it." Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for the interview!"
In fact, there is a live broadcast on the red carpet, but it is not placed in the TV station, but appears on Tencent Video, and the number of people watching it online is gradually increasing.
And many people at the scene are actually potential readers, Yan Xuan's smooth advertising behavior made Zhang Chu smile on his face.
However, the host let Zhang Chu go, and the reporters in front of him who took pictures and interviewed would not miss this great opportunity at the moment, they were like vultures, flying all over the sky and waiting to suddenly fall down and eat two bites of carrion!
"Zhang Chu, what do you think about Teacher Zhang Yintao's request for your apology today?"
"Netizens are criticizing "The Legend of Wukong" for subverting the writing of Journey to the West, do you have anything to say to them?"
"Do you agree with the notion of trampling on traditional culture?"
One by one, the microphones rushed to Zhang Chu, and these reporters were waiting for him to speak!
In fact, Zhang Chu had long expected that this question would be asked tonight, and he said with a smile at this time: "Actually, Mr. Zhang Yintao doesn't look down on my version of Wukong, and I can't see Wukong falling in love, I understand it very well." After all, we are not a generation, and the generation gap exists considerably and cannot be extinguished. I like Journey to the West, and I also like a Wukong as a human being, so that he has flesh and blood. Everyone will have their own journey to the west in their hearts, and no one has the right to ban anyone!"
The reporters were a little disappointed after listening to this answer, what about the explosion?
Shouldn't you just go back? Just pinch Zhang Yintao!
The audience at the scene was very happy, this is the writer's courage and mind, not like a shrew scolding the street.
"No wonder I can write the biography of Wukong, the situation in it is too similar to reality. ”
"Everyone has their own journey to the west in their hearts, that's great!"
"It's really good at talking, can people in Yanda play tricks?"
"Zhang Chuda is really smart and didn't fall into the trap. Hell knows what those reporters will say. ”
The fans of the book talked about it, and they were all secretly annoyed, and they just hated that they didn't bring the books over, otherwise they would have asked for autographs!
……
Entering the Tsinghua auditorium from the red carpet, Zhang Chu felt that his back had been soaked with sweat, and there were only two or three hundred spectators and dozens of reporters, but it was as if he was squeezed in the crowd.
The director and actors of the film have not yet appeared, but the representatives of the producer have already sat together and chatted.
"Xiao Zhang, it's a pity that you don't go to the movie in this dress!"
A familiar voice sounded from behind Zhang Chu, and Tu Qiwei, vice president of Yida Pictures, quipped.
Zhang Chu turned around and replied without humility or arrogance: "Otherwise, Mr. Tu, you will invest, how about letting me play a leading actor?"
"If you sign that agreement, it's not impossible for you to act in a movie. ”
Tu Qiwei said euphemistically, the negotiations on "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" have lasted for so long and have not been signed, and there are too many variables!
"These are two different things, is it possible that Mr. Tu is ready to let me play Hu Bayi?" Zhang Chu is self-aware, acting is really not something he is good at.
"It is estimated that the age is not very appropriate, otherwise the author will play the leading role, and this gimmick must be there. Tu Qiwei saw a few people coming over next to him, and quickly changed the topic: "What do you think of the box office prospects of "Psychological Crime"?"
He didn't want others to know that Yida Group was chasing "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", so as to save extraneous branches.
Zhang Chu knew Tu Qiwei's thoughts very well, thought for a while and said: "I don't think 800 million is difficult, 1 billion is possible!"
"So optimistic about this movie?"
Tu Qiwei's box office expectation for "Psychological Crime" is only 500 million, he thought silently in his heart, maybe it's just that young people don't understand the film and television industry and talk nonsense.
