Chapter 158 Boot Conference (Fifth Update, Ask for Subscription)

"Teacher Ding, is what you said true?" Huang Bin asked in disbelief, and then pinched his face with his hand. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

I guess I want to see if it hurts, so as to judge whether I am dreaming or not.

"Really. ”

"Teacher Ding, this is my personal information, you can take a look. Huang Bin, who came to his senses, hurriedly took out something similar to a resume from a small bag he was carrying, and handed it to Ding Li with both hands.

Ding Li didn't take this resume-like thing, but said angrily, "No, because I saw the shadow of Brother Kun from you, and in addition, your serious attitude moved me, and three days later, call me to sign a contract." ”

In the following days, Ding Li took the temporarily formed crew of "The Man in the Rivers and Lakes" to start a long and headache casting.

In fact, from the matter of casting, you can see a drama and a person's reputation.

If "The Man in the Rivers and Lakes" were filmed by those big directors, it would not be such a scene at all, and the major film companies or economic companies must have recommended their own actors early.

All people have to do is to select the roles suitable for the movie from the many applicants.

But now, because "The Man of the Troubled Boy in the Rivers and Lakes" is filmed by Ding Li, a rookie director, although Ding Li has some reputation, it is only limited to sketches.

If he needs actors to perform sketches with him, it is estimated that as long as there is a little noise, the door of the house will be crowded by the swarming actors.

It's a pity that this time it's not a sketch, it's a movie.

Coupled with the media singing Ding Li's counter-tune, many actors would rather wait for the call of other directors than join Ding Li's new movie.

So Ding Li was very distressed.

But distress is distress, but there is no way at all, you can't take a rope to tie up those actors who don't want to join.

It's not that there are no actors to audition, but these actors who come to audition are either too poor in acting or don't match their appearance, or they look stupid and stupid, without the slightest aura.

So after several days, Ding Li still couldn't find some more suitable candidates, so he leaned back in his chair a little angrily.

Several days have passed in a blink of an eye, and in these few days, the casting of Ding Li's new movie has finally been reluctantly completed.

Immediately after that, the company that invested in this film held the opening ceremony of "The Man in the Rivers and Lakes" the next day.

Whether it is the earth before Ding Li travels, or the water blue star Huaxia Kingdom after the crossing, every movie or TV series will hold a start-up ceremony before the start of filming.

Due to their own reasons, some boot-up ceremonies are very large, and some boot-up ceremonies are very simple.

The reason why the start-up ceremony was held was not a matter of face, but the news media at the start-up ceremony, which would really play a role in publicity.

From the moment it was born, cinema was labeled with a conspicuous label, that is, a commodity.

Therefore, for the sake of the box office, the film party must do everything possible to make the audience pay for tickets, and the way to make the audience willing to pay for tickets is publicity.

Therefore, advocacy is crucial.

In a word, the greater the publicity of the film and the higher the box office, the more screenings will be scheduled in the cinema.

The opposite is less.

It is said that the reporter's mouth is very tricky, and this sentence is not wrong at all, when Ding Li and his party appeared at the press conference.

A bunch of reporters' long guns and short cannons were handed over, and as expected, all the reporters aimed their first question at Ding Li, "Mr. Ding Li, I heard that you wrote, directed, and acted in this movie, may I ask what kind of movie is this? literary film, romance film, or war movie?"

"This "The Man in the Rivers and Lakes" is a gangster film. After Ding Li finished speaking, he paused slightly, organized the language in his heart, and continued: "The so-called old boys are actually those little hooligans and gangsters we encounter in our daily life, and I will show you their joys, sorrows and sorrows through this movie." ”

Since it is propaganda, the deeper the words are spoken, the better.

Only then will those media outlets be sought after.

"Mr. Ding Li, you have never been in contact with the directing industry before, are you confident that you will make this movie well?"

"As for the question of faith, of course. Ding Li, who looked at the reporter's camera, showed a very confident smile and said: "I, Ding Li, not only want to make a movie, but I also want to make a classic movie, so please wait and see!"

"Mr. Ding Li, you are so confident in what you say, can you talk about your expected box office for this movie?"

"It's really hard to say, I definitely hope that the more box office, the better!" Ding Li said with a golden word, then stood up and bowed to the many reporters present, "So please also ask you to help promote our new movie, thank you." ”

"Mr. Ding Li, can you give me a specific number?"

"500 million, I think this goal should be achievable!" Ding Li was not modest.

Besides, this kind of juncture is to be high-profile, otherwise it will give people a feeling of lack of confidence, because as a director, you are not confident enough, so how can the audience have confidence in your movie!

Of course, Ding Li said that the box office of 500 million yuan is not untargeted.

In the previous life of the earth, the movie "The Man of the Troubled Boy in the Rivers and Lakes" sold nearly 40 million yuan at the box office in Hong Kong.

How many people were there in Hong Kong at that time?

Less than seven million!

How many people are there in the current Aqua Blue Star Huaxia Kingdom?

Almost two billion.

Therefore, it is entirely possible to have a box office of 500 million, even if it does not reach 500 million in the end, there is still a guaranteed box office of 200 million.

For "The Man of the Troubled Boys", which has an investment of only 15 million, it is already in a profitable state.

The reporter at the scene, before coming, the wine already knew the specific investment figure of "The Man in the Rivers and Lakes", so when he heard that Ding Li wanted 500 million box office revenue, he instantly guessed Ding Li's plan and knew that this guy was following the topic of 500 million box office to promote the movie.

Therefore, I don't know if it was discussed in advance, but they actually moved their camera away from Ding Li and put it on Zhou Xiaotian.

There is no way, who made Zhou Xiaotian angry, but the topic of conversation is the hottest.

Thanks to the help of Ding Li's new movie, the knife teaching incident that Zhou Xiaotian encountered eight years ago was once again revealed.

In addition to turning it out, there are also many netizens who ran to the Weibo of several parties involved in the knife teaching incident in the past year, and kept scolding angrily.
