Chapter 220: Interview

If Zhang Xiaoming had a parachute on his back, he would be able to jump out of the plane directly, and his face would be almost lost to the Pacific Ocean!

I thought that the reporter knew himself and wanted to find out the news of the new drama from himself, but he didn't expect that people didn't come for him at all, but for this bastard in sunglasses!

This guy is also surnamed Zhang, and he is also a director? Zhang Yang? No, Zhang Yang is not so tall, and he is not so young! Who is this guy? Zhang Xiaoming looked at Zhang Ran in a daze, and couldn't help but guess who he was.

At this moment, Zhang Ran was also a little stunned, wasn't he, he was actually recognized? I don't have such a big reputation, right? He was a little worried, the media had never been disciplined, and it was not possible for a report on "Zhang Ran's Big Trouble with the Airplane" to be released.

When the female reporter saw that Zhang Ran looked at her and didn't speak, she thought that he was refusing, so she reported to her home again, and said her intentions: "Director Zhang, we are reporters from "Peking Entertainment Daily", can I ask you a few questions?"

The flight attendant stopped when she saw that it was a reporter interview, looked at Zhang Ran, if Zhang Ran refused, then she could ask the two reporters to return to their positions and not disturb other passengers. If Zhang Ran is willing to be interviewed, then she is not easy to interfere with.

The passengers looked at Zhang Xiaoming, and then at Zhang Ran, it turned out that this was the director, and it sounded quite famous, the fake Li ghost met the real Li Kui, this thing is a bit interesting!

"Your eyes are too sharp, so you can be recognized!" Zhang Ran took off his sunglasses, although he didn't like the media that reported indiscriminately, he didn't want to give the impression of playing a big name.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoming finally saw Zhang Ran's appearance clearly, his eyes widened, and his face was hot. He felt that this world was too mysterious! He thought it was just an ordinary passenger. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, this guy became a rising star director who attracted domestic attention. You're talking about a celebrity and a director who has won awards abroad. You don't take first class, run our economy class to join in the fun. Isn't this a pitfall?

Where does Zhang Xiaoming still have the face to stay, compared with Zhang Ran, he is really not enough to see, and returns to his seat in a gloomy manner.

The female reporter smiled and said: "Director Zhang, you won the top award at the Tokyo Film Festival, and many media are waiting to interview you, but they can't find any trace of you, it's too low-key." Now that "Before Dawn" is selling for a sky-high price, the media wants to interview you, but they still can't find anyone. Now a journalist from various newspapers. Dig deep into the ground to find you. I can memorize your information backwards, how can I not recognize it!"

"Dandan, you go to the position of this reporter for the time being, and when she finishes the interview, you will come back. Zhang Ran patted Wang Luodan's shoulder next to her and motioned for her to give up her position to the female reporter, so that she would not stand in the aisle and obstruct others.

Wait for Wang Luodan to get up. Zhang Ran smiled and said to the female reporter: "You sit down and ask, if you can answer, I will definitely answer, and if you can't, I promise not to say a word!"

The female reporter was slightly stunned when she saw Wang Luodan giving way to herself. She has interviewed a lot of people, and the artists who have tasted the bottom are usually more sober, and those who became popular overnight. It is easy to embark on the road of self-aggrandizement. Zhang Ran seems to her to be the kind that goes relatively smoothly, graduating from a prestigious school. returned to China to make movies and succeeded one after another, plus Zhang Ran was never interviewed. She thought that Zhang Ran was the kind of person who was particularly difficult to interview, but she didn't expect to be so easy-going.

The female reporter felt a little warm in her heart, sat down in Wang Luodan's position, pointed the recorder at Zhang Ran, and asked: "Director Zhang, "Bursting Drummer" caused a sensation when it was screened at the Tokyo Film Festival, and the audience responded very strongly, and the domestic audience is very much looking forward to this movie, I don't know when it will be released?"

Zhang Ran replied with a smile: "The movie is distributed by China Film, and the release time should be during the Spring Festival." I originally wanted to release it during Christmas, but during Christmas, there is "Hero" directed by Zhang Yimou, "Hero" is an aircraft carrier, and our movie is a small sampan, so I dare not go on it with "Hero", so it will be placed during the Spring Festival!"

The cabin was very quiet, everyone was listening to the female reporter's questions, and Zhang Ran answered. At this time, they finally knew Zhang Ran's identity, and whispered about it, stars and directors are always very special in everyone's eyes, and it is inevitable that they will be curious: "That's Zhang Ran, I especially like "Time Prisoner", it's so good!"

"I heard that "Before Dawn" sold 850,000 episodes, which is more than 20 million, which is amazing!"

"This is Zhang Ran, my daughter likes him very much, saying that she will take his class in the future, and I will ask for an autograph in a while!"

……

The female reporter asked: "Director Zhang! In recent years, the domestic film market has been relatively sluggish, and the box office of many films that have won awards in China is relatively bleak, and even the box office of the films directed by Zhang Yimou is very poor. Is this film different from other award-winning films, and do you have any expectations for the box office?"

"Director Zhang Yimou and other domestic directors were deeply influenced by European films, especially the French New Wave. The most prominent thing about the New Wave is that it opposes rationality, tradition, and story structure, and focuses on the subjective experience and psychological activities of people, which may be dull for ordinary audiences. My films are more deeply influenced by American films, pay more attention to the story, and have commercial considerations, which may be more in line with the audience's taste. As for the box office, I'm satisfied if it can reach 20 million!"

The students in the class have all watched "Burst Drummer", and in their opinion, it is really a super good-looking, super awesome movie. Hearing Zhang Rancai's prediction of 20 million, I felt that it was too low: "Mr. Zhang, your expectation for such a good movie as "Bursting Drummer" is only 20 million, which is too low! At least 50 million, otherwise it seems that you are not confident!"

"That's it, you should report 100 million anyway!"

"100 million is too high, it will be regarded as a psychopath. Jia Niliang, your brain man is in the water, right?"

Everyone in the circle knows that Zhang Ran is Nortel's teacher, and the female reporter naturally knows that when she heard Jia Niangliang and them call Zhang Ran a teacher, she couldn't help asking: "Director Zhang, are these your students?"

Zhang Ran nodded and said, "Yes, these monkeys are my students!"

The students quit: "Teacher Zhang, you should protect our image in front of reporters, even if you don't praise us for being smart, lively and cute, you can't say that we are monkeys, right?"

"You are our teacher, if we were monkeys. Then you are the Monkey King!"

"Yes, you're the Monkey King!"

The female reporter thought the group of students was very cute. smiled: "Director Zhang, you have a really good relationship with your students. Are you filming with students, or something else?"

"No, take them on a long-distance survival experience!"

"Out-of-town survival experience?"

Zhang Ran explained with a smile: "There are 30 students in our class, and each of them has a basic living allowance of 20 yuan to survive in the magic capital for 10 days, including accommodation, food, etc. What if they don't have enough money? It's up to them to make money with their hands. During these ten days, they did not receive any outside assistance, and they had to earn enough plane tickets to return to Beiping!"

The female reporter was taken aback: "20 yuan to live in the magic capital for ten days." It's very difficult, and it's impossible to earn enough money for airfares! Are they done? Why are they organizing this event?"

"People are funny, and they always have to grow and hone through hardships, especially for actors. If an actor's experience is pale as paper, it's hard to imagine that he will have great acting skills. If you want to play a person who is heartbroken because of a broken love, then you must at least have emotional experience, if you have never even been in love, it is difficult to present that state realistically! You can use skill to represent it, but there is still a difference between this kind of substitution emotion and the real state!"

The female reporter nodded, Zhang Ran's words were very reasonable. She looked around at the students and asked, "Can I interview the students in your class?"

Zhang Ran smiled: "If they don't refuse, of course it's no problem!"

I heard that a female reporter wanted an interview. Jia Niliang straightened her hair and tightened her clothes. Coughing, trying to get the attention of the female reporter.

But the female reporter ignored him. He pointed the recorder at Zhang Xinyi on the other side of the aisle and asked, "How do you feel about participating in this event?"

"In the past, in school, spending money was basically not counted. When it comes to survival experience, eating a white steamed bun for breakfast should also be considered. On the first day, I went to hand out flyers and ran 5 20-story buildings, more than 2,000 steps, and 300 rooms. In a building, I was scolded by an aunt who pointed her nose and hated you people who posted small advertisements!"

"Are you tired of going to the Demon Capital for survival training these days?"

"I'm really tired, I've never been so tired, I went back to the hotel every day to sleep, and I want to be better later!"

"You are a student of Nortel's performance department, and you are the pride of the sky, but the teacher asked you to work, so hard, and you were scolded, do you feel wronged?

"From the bottom of my heart, I am really a little wronged, after all, I have suffered so much. However, as an actor, this grievance is nothing, this is a kind of practice, of course, it is impossible to tell your family, for fear that they will worry!"

"Did you cry when you were wronged?"

"I cried, I didn't cry when I was scolded by my aunt that day, but I cried when I turned my back, I was really wronged. ”

The female reporter interviewed a few students to find out their views on survival training, and soon she shifted the focus of the interview to Zhang Ran. Zhang Ran is still very cooperative, what to answer, especially in the face of the question of "Before Dawn", he answered more carefully, which can be regarded as helping Chen Zhenghong publicize.

"Director Zhang, thank you for accepting our interview!" At the end of the interview, the female reporter shook hands with Zhang Ran, and then smiled again, "Director Zhang, I am your fan, can I take a photo with you?"

"Of course!" Zhang Ran was a little surprised, after all, he has few works, but since he is his fan, he must support it.

"Director Zhang, thank you!****, quick, help me take a group photo with my idol!" The female reporter stood beside Zhang Ran, without much movement, but her face was filled with a happy and excited smile.

Click-

The flash flashed.

The female reporter thanked again: "Thank you, Director Zhang!"

Returning to his seat, the photographer said curiously: "Jiajia, I didn't expect you to be a fan of Zhang Ran, but he is really handsome, and it is absolutely no problem to be an actor!"

"Not before, but from today on!" the female reporter smiled and said, "It's not that I haven't interviewed a director before, and it's really the first time I've encountered a director like him!"

In the early afternoon, the plane circled over the capital airport and slowly landed.

When the plane came to a standstill, everyone laughed and got off the plane and walked towards the exit.

Out of the airport, a somewhat turbid breath came to the face, everything in Beiping is good, but the quality of the air is really poor.

Jia Niliang looked up to the sky and roared: "Beiping, I'm back!"

The surrounding tourists all looked at Jia Niliang in surprise, this young man looks good, but unfortunately he has a mental problem.

The students in the class all turned their faces to the side, I don't know this guy! Zhang Ran gave Jia Milk a bright kick: "Don't embarrass me, get out of here!"

The students in the class lined up to get on the bus, while Zhang Ran got into a taxi. After sitting down, Zhang Ran reported his destination: "Go to Zhongguancun!"

Five hours later, Zhang Ran boarded a plane to Los Angeles with some of the video footage produced by the special effects studio. (To be continued.) )
