Chapter 48 Press Conference
After squatting in the magic capital for less than 10 days, the company asked Hu Wei to go back, and his classmates who were going to participate in acting also went back, and Chengtian planned to hold a press conference.
So Hu Wei recalled his classmates on the same day, or directly asked them to go to Yanjing, and then took Reba and Chen Tian back to the headquarters of Chengtian Entertainment Company.
After returning to the company, Reba was invited to rest in the lounge, and Chen Tian went to deal with some of Hu Wei's personal affairs, and Hu Wei was called to the office by Wu Kebo Wu to get to know the director he sent someone to shoot this play.
"Come, let me introduce to you, this is Meng Xiaowei, the director who has filmed "Wangxi" and other works, he will direct this "Charlotte Troubles", this is our newcomer to our company, and he is also the screenwriter of this play, Hu Wei. Wu Kebo introduced the two.
"Ah, I have been looking up for a long time, it turned out to be Director Meng!" Hu Wei said politely, of course he didn't know or heard of this director Meng Xiaowei.
"Little Brother Hu Wei is really a young talent, and he is also a talent, he will definitely be popular, he wrote such a good book at a young age, and his future is limitless. Meng Xiaowei also touted Hu Wei and said, the so-called sedan chair carries people.
"Hey, it's all about luck, I thought of this idea, but I personally still hope to be low-key, don't say anything about the screenwriter, it's still a book written by Gu Yueshan!" Hu Wei said modestly.
"Ha, I see, don't worry, I'll definitely keep my mouth shut. Meng Xiaowei promised.
"Okay, the two of them are almost touted, the company plans to hold a press conference tomorrow, and when the two of you and the main actors will attend, our company will send Ding Yuqin Ding to support the scene, and the rest will be left to you!" Wu Kebo interrupted the greetings between the two and said.
"Okay!" "Yes!" the two agreed.
"By the way, Hu Wei, do you have any thoughts on filming this scene?" After Wu Kebo left, Meng Xiaowei asked Hu Wei.
"Aren't my opinions all written in the script, I don't have any opinions, you can just shoot with confidence, if you have a better idea, you can also tell me, and then modify the script!" Hu Wei looked at the cautious Meng Xiaowei and said.
After all, he is an outsider, and he is inevitably a little worried that Hu Wei will have to do the director's job as a scoundrel, which will make it difficult for him to do it, so he can have a better understanding by confirming it in advance, and Hu Wei will naturally not overstep his responsibilities, otherwise he can shoot it himself!
After listening to Hu Wei's words, Meng Xiaowei put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "Okay, the script is very good, I can't think of a better idea, just shoot according to the script!"
At 9 a.m. on February 15, 2012, Chengtian Entertainment officially held a press conference on the filming of the new film "Charlotte's Troubles".
Ms. Ding Yuqin, the artist director of Chengtian Entertainment, Mr. Meng Xiaowei, the chief director of "Charlotte's Troubles", the newcomer of Chengtian Entertainment is also the male protagonist of this play, Hu Wei, the heroine of this play, Di Lireba, who has partnered with Hu Wei many times, as well as Yin Zheng of the second male number of Xinghui Music and Ye Zi, a college student in the second female play, and other supporting roles Li Ke, Dong Xutao, Wu Yulong, etc. The host opened the sentence first.
With each name, that person stood up to greet the media reporters who participated in the press conference.
"May I ask Mr. Ding, how much investment does your company have in this play?" the reporter from Sohu News asked first.
"Our company decided to invest in the filming of "Charlotte's Troubles" at a cost of 50 million!" replied Ding Yuqin.
"Most of this drama is all newcomers, how can it need an investment of 50 million?" the Sohu News reporter continued to ask.
"That's the inside of the filming and the company's operations, I can't tell you about it, next!" replied Ding Yuqin.
"Then why did your company choose some newcomers, some of whom have not even graduated from college?" asked a reporter from Phoenix Entertainment.
"Because we believe that they are definitely the most suitable for this movie, and it doesn't matter if they are new or anything!" replied Ding Yuqin.
"May I ask Director Meng Xiaowei, how did you start working with Chengtian Entertainment? What kind of movie is "Charlotte's Troubles" that you are going to shoot? The name Charlotte sounds like a foreigner!" a reporter from Tencent News asked Meng Xiaowei.
"This is someone from Chengtian Entertainment who found me and showed me the script, I thought it was good and agreed to cooperate, as for this movie, I can only say that this is a comedy, a comedy that can definitely make you laugh!" Meng Xiaowei replied.
"Why didn't the screenwriter of this film participate in this press conference?" the Tencent News reporter continued.
"Because he himself is used to keeping a low profile and doesn't like people to disturb his private life, he didn't come to the press conference, okay, the next reporter asked a question. Meng Xiaowei said.
"May I ask Hu Wei, do you have anything to say about co-starring in a movie with your old classmate Di Lieba again?" asked Hu Wei by a reporter from Yanjing Entertainment.
"All I can say is that I'm very happy to be working with Reba again, and I hope to make a movie that everyone likes again. Hu Wei replied.
"Then may I ask Miss Di Lieba, you are a newcomer to Yang Mi Studio, why does Chengtian Entertainment let you play the heroine in the film? Does it mean that Chengtian Entertainment and Huanrui Century are going to cooperate?" The reporter of Yanjing Entertainment continued to ask.
"I'm sorry, I don't know about the casting of Chengtian Entertainment, and as for the cooperation between the two companies, I don't know about a small artist. Reba said without humility or arrogance.
Hu Wei hurriedly took the microphone and said: "I'm sorry, we refuse to answer things that have nothing to do with this press conference, please ask the next reporter to ask questions!"
A reporter from NetEase News hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Then may I ask Miss Di Lieba what she thinks of this new play, or what do you think of her role?"
Reba thought for a while and said: "I think this movie is still very good, although it hasn't been filmed yet, but I sometimes laugh when I read the script, as for this role, I think it's quite suitable for me, I like it very much!"
The press conference ended after two hours, and then various media reported on the latest investment of Chengtian Entertainment's film "Charlotte Troubles", and everyone had different opinions.
Some questioned the 50 million investment mentioned by Ding Yuqin, thinking that this was just Chengtian attracting people's attention;
Some wrote scandals about Hu Wei and Reba, and attached a lot of secretly taken photos of the lives of the two, but there are no more intimate ones;
There are also media who say that director Meng Xiaowei shoots a comedy for the first time, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not hit the street. Anyway, "Charlotte's Troubles" has caused a lot of conversation.
The day after the press conference, directors Meng Xiaowei and Hu Wei and all the other actors went to an abandoned middle school in the magic capital to start filming.
