Chapter 142: Boot Conference (Second Update)
Saturday, November 4th, 2000, Kunlun International Hotel!
It's still the hall last time Yang Ming held his first album record press conference, and the hall was full of people at this time, almost all of them were full, and there were basically no vacant seats!
Originally, Liu Xinsheng and Zheng Wen both suggested that Yang Ming's start-up ceremony was that all the crew members offered a pig's head to worship God and burn incense.
Yang Ming was stunned when he heard it, and thought that he had returned to his previous life, in the previous life, before the film industry started in Hong Kong and Taiwan, they all liked to engage in this set of worshipping God and burning incense, and later the mainland also learned from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and liked to engage in this set, until after 2010, it was slowly replaced by a press conference and this kind of soft propaganda!
Therefore, Yang Ming thought about it for a while and decided to hold a press conference first, then "Meteor Garden" to build momentum, and then the crew to hold a worship ceremony and burn incense, both prongedly!
At present, the entertainment industry in this world still holds the traditional Chinese concept of wine and is not afraid of deep alleys for entertainment, no wonder it was defeated in the face of Western entertainment giants!
There was a famous saying in his previous life, Yang Ming thought it was true, that is: "Entertainment, entertainment, is a big thing, and it will be earth-shattering!"
But the premise is that you have enough strength, otherwise everything will become a laughing stock!
At the front desk of the hall, there is a big billboard erected under the stage, with a few big words written on it - "Meteor Garden" Launching Ceremony Press Conference!
Many acquaintances of reporters are greeting each other and asking for details about the press conference!
"Lao Wang, do you think this Yang Ming can really make a TV series?"
"Yes, how long has he only been in film school? 2 months, he is in a hurry to make his own TV series, I really don't know how thick the sky is!"
"But no, he thought it was singing, just have a good voice!"
"However, what kind of press conference did you say about the opening ceremony, it is quite novel, and no other entertainment company seems to have done this!"
"Who knows, maybe it's just a show!"
"Hey, maybe you guess who I just saw?"
"Who? Tell me who you see?"
"Zhao Laoyan and Song Honghong!"
"Wow, it won't be!"
What a reporter said caused exclamations from the surroundings!
At this moment, Yang Ming and Liu Xinsheng walked over, and the two middle-aged men and women were the two famous sketch comedians Zhao Laoyan and Song Honghong who were familiar to everyone!
Sure enough, the reporters really didn't expect Yang Ming to be able to invite their two golden partners to the crew!
I saw Yang Ming, Liu Xinsheng, Zheng Wen, Zhao Laoyan, Song Honghong and a group of five people walking up to the stage and sitting in front!
Liu Xinsheng patted the microphone, coughed lightly, signaled the audience to be quiet, and saw that no one below continued to talk to each other, he said loudly: "Hello everyone, I am Liu Xinsheng, the general manager of Oriental DreamWorks Film and Television Company!"
There was a boo from the audience, now everyone wants to know why Zhao Laoyan and Song Honghong will agree to join the crew of a rookie director, Liu Xinsheng is doing this to completely whet everyone's appetite, and some of his more familiar reporters naturally don't buy Liu Xinsheng's account!
Liu Xinsheng didn't take these boos to heart, and he also knew what the reporters in the audience cared about, but he still gave a brief introduction to the crew of "Meteor Garden", and then gave the microphone to Yang Ming!
Yang Ming glanced at the hot and eager eyes of the reporters in the audience, and he smiled: "Okay, I want to say, Mr. Liu finished talking just now, now everyone wants to ask any questions, just ask!"
"I want to ask Mr. Yang Ming a question, may I ask you that you have no previous experience as a director, and you have only been in film school for more than 2 months, will it be too child's play to be the director of a TV series now!
A reporter who was named stood up and questioned Yang Ming's ability mercilessly!
Yang Ming touched his chin, smiled, moved the microphone inward with a calm movement, and said loudly: "This reporter friend is right, I am a newcomer director, just like I used to sing, I don't have any qualifications, no works, there are doubts, there are worries, these are all very normal things!"
"As for why I didn't have any directing experience, and I only entered film school for 2 months, I started directing and shooting TV series by myself, I think it's the same as I used to want to write songs and sing, before I did it, you didn't know if you could do it or not, so the answer to this question will not be answered until after this TV series is broadcast!"
Yang Ming said very confidently, even a little arrogant, but he naturally has the capital to be arrogant, and he is indeed not wrong at all, he used to sing, write songs, and release records, and he has no experience or any qualifications, but he succeeded, and now he is still very popular!
Therefore, although Yang Ming is now the first time to be a director and take the microphone, no one dares to guarantee that Yang Ming will fail!
"However, Mr. Yang Ming, singing and directing are completely different things," at this time, another reporter stood up and said.
"I'm sorry, comrade reporter, I want to say that before I sang, someone once told me that academic performance and singing are two different things, but I still succeeded, Xie Lu Xie!" Yang Ming interrupted the reporter's question, and replied a little forcefully!
Damn, the reporters in the audience can't help but want to scold their mother, this Yang Ming is too bullying, who doesn't know that with the current sales of Yang Ming's first solo album record, it has been concluded by many people in the music industry that Yang Ming, who is already a gold-level singer and is under 20 years old, is definitely expected to become a diamond-level singer within 5 years!
And Yang Ming's fame process has been thoroughly studied by everyone, he has not received the slightest professional training, he has not attended a professional conservatory, he is completely from a wild road, but he is successful, and now he wants to make a TV series, as soon as anyone questions him, he will show his road to fame in music!
This makes everyone still have questions!
At this time, the reporters turned their attention to Zhao Laoyan and Song Honghong, two sketch comedy stars who have huge popularity in China!
"Hello, Mr. Zhao, may I ask why you and Mr. Song participated in the crew of a rookie director this time, is it because of the salary?" A reporter began to ask Zhao Laoyan!
Zhao Laoyan faced the media, naturally not a rookie, he and Song Honghong looked at each other and smiled, and then said into the microphone in front of him: "This question, I guess you will also ask Honghong when you look back, so I will say it for her!"
"First of all!" Zhao Laoyan raised his index finger and said, "Do you think that Honghong and I are the people who are moved by money, or do you think that Honghong and I are people who have never seen money?"
- Ha Lu Ha!
Everyone in the press conference hall burst into laughter, and Yang Ming, who was sitting next to Zhao Laoyan, was also smiling, and couldn't help but admire in his heart, what an old fox, he was so old in front of the media!
