Chapter 176: The Girls' Sharp Counterattack (Twenty-two)
"Director Wu, I heard that the cost of your drama has been recovered before filming has started, is there such a thing? Can you tell us more about it?"
"Mr. Wu, I heard that you will implant a lot of advertisements in this play. Aren't you worried that when people enter the theater, they will see your blockbuster?"
"Director Wu, your drama is all newcomers, aren't you worried about the box office?"
"I heard that Leslie Cheung rejected Director Wu's invitation, did there be any contradiction between you? Or did he refuse because he didn't like this role?"
……
On a beach in Repulse Bay, Wu Cheng's new film, the launch press conference of "Happy Ghost", is being held on this beach.
The people involved, in addition to Wu Cheng, Wang Jing, Huang Baiming, who are the main and deputy directors, and producer Zhao Yazhi, there are also a cadre of the main creators of the crew of "Happy Ghost".
Looking at the main creators of the crew of "Happy Ghost", all of them are newcomers, and many reporters are talking about it, and some of them began to ask.
Wu Cheng raised his hand with a smile, took the microphone and said, "Everyone knows my rules, please keep order, come one by one, don't rob, it's useless to rob." ”
After everyone calmed down, Wu Cheng glanced at the dozens of reporters around him, and then said: "Who said just now that I had a conflict with Rong Shao, stand up, I promise not to kill him!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and at the end they covered their mouths and chuckled.
As a result, Wu Cheng didn't expect that his oral phrase, which he learned from the Internet in later generations, would become popular in Xiangjiang like this.
When everyone had laughed enough, Wu Chengcai said: "Rong Shao's new album is being promoted, and there is no schedule to star in my new film, which is normal." Besides, Fenglong Records is my record company, and the reporter just now is a newcomer, right?
The reporter from the Oriental Daily was said by Wu Cheng. There was a burst of red faces.
Wu Cheng scolded with a smile, and said: "In addition, I have to declare that it is in the movie." Advertising placement is very normal, the 'Five Lucky Stars' released during the Spring Festival last year, can you see where I implanted the advertisement? Hey, I won't say it, you must not have found it!"
"So. Do you think it's necessary to worry about that?"
Wu Cheng curled the corners of his lips a little proudly, and said: "As for whether the box office of the new film will become unsatisfactory because they are all new actors, this kind of thing is actually very unnecessary." ”
A reporter immediately didn't understand and asked, "Why? Isn't it true that two actors who are also suitable for the role are together, the more famous they are, the better?"
"Of course there is nothing wrong with this!" Wu Cheng didn't care about his violations, and continued: "But my drama focuses on the youth campus, and the newcomers are naturally invited. Do you want me to ask some adults to come back and play these middle school students?
Wu Cheng pointed to his head. said: "Trouble you, when you ask questions, pass by here a little, otherwise, our Q&A will really not be nutritious!"
Wu Cheng's words made many reporters blush, and at the same time, some reporters chuckled.
"Okay, you guys are quiet for a while, and I'll introduce you to the creator of the new film "Happy Ghost". This Miss Zhao Yazhi. You must know each other, so I won't introduce you too much, she is the producer of this film and one of the producers. This is Mr. Huang Baiming. is one of the screenwriters of the play "Happy Ghost", also the leading actor, and one of the assistant directors. This Wang Jing is the assistant director of this film. In addition, I would like to introduce you to these newcomers......"
At that time, she and Miss Zhao Yazhi were famous at the same time! Her name is Zhong Chuhong, and she is also the spokesperson of the girl series of the Phoenix Clothing brand. Do you remember?"
When many people heard this, they suddenly realized, and then remembered that when Zhao Yazhi became famous overnight and became the first beauty in Xiangjiang, there was another person who became famous with her.
It's just that later, the girl disappeared and never appeared in the media again, gradually fading out of the audience's sight. Seriously calculated, in addition to Wu Cheng, she is also the most famous among these newcomers in the entire crew.
After explaining the main creators of the crew, Wu Cheng gave the opportunity to ask a question. But soon, he discovered that some of these reporters were really not afraid of death.
Because the reporter who was the first to get the opportunity to ask a question asked Zhong Chuhong directly, "I want to ask Miss Zhong, there are three heroines in the play "Happy Ghost", and you are one of them, I don't know if it's because you have a relationship with Director Wu!"
When Zhong Chuhong smelled this question, her eyebrows frowned slightly, she felt that this question was full of traps, and if she was not careful, she might fall into the pit.
Seeing that Wu Cheng wanted to reach over and get her microphone and help her out, the corners of her lips raised slightly, and she was in a good mood. felt that Wu Cheng still cared about her.
So she coughed lightly and smiled: "Don't you know that the driving force behind my overnight success was Director Wu in your mouth? We are good friends, and besides, as a fairly famous director, wouldn't he know whether an actor is suitable for this role? Or are you doubting Director Wu's ability and vision at all?"
Hearing Zhong Chuhong's sharp counterattack, the corners of Wu Cheng's lips couldn't help but raise slightly, and even Zhao Yazhi's cheeks were full of pear nests. Obviously, she didn't expect Zhong Chuhong to answer like this.
Usually her sharp teeth and sharp mouth finally came in handy at this time.
The reporter was choked by Zhong Chuhong's words, and was about to ask another question, but he had no chance. Another reporter pointed the finger at Mei Yanfang.
Because Mei Yanfang is also one of the three heroines.
"I don't know how Miss Mei got this role? Could it be that you are also friends with Director Wu?" the reporter couldn't help but chuckle after asking.
If he didn't laugh, then this question was not a problem, but just after him laughed, the meaning of the question was a little unusual.
Mei Yanfang hated the reporter's tone a little, because it was questioning her, and even doubting her and Wu Cheng's character. She couldn't help but want to curse and question her character, which didn't matter because she wasn't famous now. However, questioning Wu Cheng's character made her a little unbearable. But she also knows that she can't lose her temper here, and she can't scold people, because it will make it seem that she has no plain zhì, and it will also appear that Wu Cheng has no vision.
Therefore, she can only scold this dirty person in secret.
However, after all, she is also a girl who has been on the stage, although she is still young, she has never been stage frightened. Yes, after a moment's thought, she smiled.
No one can tell that when she is smiling, she is cursing in her heart.
"I think, I need to reintroduce myself!" she said, she couldn't help but look at Wu Cheng, as if asking, and after seeing Wu Cheng nodding his head slightly, she said: "My name is Mei Yanfang, Mei is the plum of plum blossoms, you can call me Amei, or you can call me Anita, this is my English name." In addition, I am an artist trainee signed by Tiancheng Agency. ”
Looking at her calm self-introduction, many people were a little dumbfounded, is this girl still a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl?
Mei Yanfang smiled and said: "Doesn't Director Wu invite artists from his own company, but also people from other companies? If you don't understand this truth, then you are so much older than me for nothing!"
Mei Yanfang's last sentence was a bit rushed, but most people wouldn't think she was bad, after all, when Wu Cheng introduced her, he had already explained that she was only fourteen years old, can you make a fourteen-year-old girl still humble when you doubt and laugh at her?
Seeing Mei Yanfang's somewhat sharp appearance, the corners of Wu Cheng's lips couldn't help but hook, and finally took the microphone and said with a smile: "In addition, some of the episodes and theme songs in the play "Happy Ghost" will be sung by her and her sister Mei Aifang. At that time, we will release an album called "Happy Girl", so stay tuned!"
It can be seen that Wu Cheng is preparing to praise this girl! Although she is only fourteen years old now, with Wu Cheng's ability, they think that this girl is estimated to be really popular.
Because I have known Wu Cheng for so long, there have been many new stars who have been held out by Wu Chengzhi.
Not to mention Hong Jinbao's brothers, now that he has come out, the two most popular have achieved quite dazzling results in the music world, especially Su Rui's album "If the Wine Sells Nothing".
In Xiangjiang, this album has long been double platinum, but in Treasure Island, this achievement has doubled several times, and if you count the whole of Southeast Asia, this album has sold nearly one million.
In addition to the promotion of the movie, there are other channels of publicity. In terms of publicity, Wu Cheng has never been stingy with money. He doesn't know how many of her albums have sold in history, but a million copies should be no problem. However, the sales speed is estimated not to be as fast as it is now.
And another newcomer, Leslie Cheung, who was called 'Rong Shao' by Wu Cheng, has now begun to develop his albums. Although it is not as strong as "If the Wine Sells Nothing", the stamina is quite strong. In particular, some of the songs written by Wu Cheng are becoming more and more popular now.
In the whole of Southeast Asia, his album has sold more than 300,000 copies, and now is the time for this album to make a force. may not be as high as the sales of the album "If the Wine Sells Nothing" in the end, but this result is already very good among singers.
In this way, what height will this young Mei Yanfang reach in the future? )
