Chapter 272: Madman Gu Xiaofan
A group of reporters chased Gu Xiaofan "reluctantly" as if chasing their first love, and everyone didn't dare to be too intense, so they could only ask all kinds of tricky questions in as gentle words as possible, and Gu Xiaofan also answered in the most concise sentences as he walked. [Full text reading]
"Director Gu, we all know that you have only filmed sitcoms before and have no experience in film, why do you think you have the ability to control a movie?"
"I make micro-movies, some people ask why I dare to make micro-movies, I make TV series, and some people ask me why I dare to make TV series, and now that I make movies, you still ask so? Because I can, I shoot. ”
"This film investment is not small, how much box office do you expect your film to have?"
"Of course, it is to recover the cost, 70 million is my goal, but I think it is possible to 100 million, the next one."
"Do you think you can play the role of Cheng Dongqing well? According to the information, the age span of this character is somewhat large. ”
"Do you think I'll say no? Next. ”
"When will the movie be released?"
"This summer, next."
Under the siege of so many reporters, Gu Xiaofan still answered questions with an extremely strong attitude, which made reporters feel tricky.
Finally, there was a question that made Gu Xiaofan stop, and the reporter from Phoenix Satellite TV asked loudly:
"As a domestic movie, how can you be confident that you will face the impact of Hollywood blockbusters in the summer?"
Gu Xiaofan stopped and looked at him, and said incomprehensibly: "This is China, we are facing a Chinese audience, why should I be afraid of Hollywood movies?" This is a question that I will only face when I go to Hollywood in the future. ”
This answer caused an uproar among the reporters, this guy still wants to go to Hollywood...... Did he think he was Ang Lee?
In the distance, Chu Qiubai, He Tiejun, and Principal Zhang stood on the second floor of the "Standard Release Hall" and watched this peculiar "chase interview", Gu Xiaofan really let them watch a good show today.
"I'm afraid the media won't write good things about us in the future." Although He Tiejun felt relieved, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Chu Qiubai said with a smile: "Bad news is much better than no news, this Director Gu does have a set of things for the media." ”
Principal Zhang also smiled and nodded in agreement: "Anyway, even if we don't say anything this time, it will be regarded as a joke by the media, so it's better to make this joke bigger, at least let more people know about this movie." ”
Behind them, Gao Yuanyuan, Huang Lei, Liu Shishi, and Lou Yixiao were also watching Gu Xiaofan's verbal battle with those reporters from a distance, although they were a little worried, but they felt extremely relaxed in their hearts.
They all realized that after today, all the negative public opinion on "Chinese Partner" was focused on Gu Xiaofan alone, and they just needed to act with peace of mind.
Gao Yuanyuan looked at Gu Xiaofan in the face of the reporters' bombardment in that sharp way, and couldn't help giggling: "This little genius is really interesting~"
Liu Shishi stroked her hair fluttering in the wind and scolded complainingly: "What a little genius, just a little idiot who loves to be strong......"
That night, almost all the entertainment media reported on the incident...... How can a rookie film director arrogantly announce himself at the press conference that he is "the best director, screenwriter, and actor of Shanghai Film Group." "Virgo will get 100 million box office" "Will land in Hollywood in the future"
is so large that everyone forgets that this is actually just an inconspicuous movie among many domestic films.
Through TV media reports, Gu Xiaofan's arrogance in the unprecedented "chase interview" made many people see it clearly.
Comments about his style have already appeared in the fastest-responding online media, but the text editors have not criticized him because of the tight schedule.
However, all media reporters gritted their teeth and buried themselves in writing copywriting at night, waiting for tomorrow to criticize this arrogant "performance poet".
At the press conference, they were tired and tired to catch up and be humiliated by Gu Xiaofan, and this time they must find face in words.
The biggest advantage of being a journalist is that they can judge anyone in their field without having a way to refute it......
For Gu Xiaofan, he is about to face fierce fire from the media.
But he was calm, and he went home to have a hearty dinner with his father, and told him what he was doing so.
He knew what the media would do to him, but he didn't care, he even wanted the media to promote his arrogant image, because he needed such a media image.
He is too young, and he became a film director all of a sudden, which will definitely cause many doubts, and the media just showed it.
He Tiejun and Chu Qiubai, aren't they just as optimistic about themselves? Not to mention the others.
It doesn't matter, what matters is what the crew thinks, the filming of the movie is not much shorter than the TV series, and he can't establish his prestige little by little like "Love Apartment".
What's more, the Deng Cao, Huang Lei, and Gao Yuanyuan he will face this time are all seniors with higher qualifications than him, Huang Lei and even his teachers......
If they are criticized because of his lack of media resources, what can he Gu Xiaofan do to make these actors respect him from the bottom of their hearts and listen to him?
Could it be that he said in a low voice according to the way he treated his seniors: "Seniors, I am a rookie director, I don't understand anything, please help me a lot?" ”
That's a good thing to say...... After that, he doesn't have to be a director.
What will happen to the director who can't suppress the actors, just like what happened in "Looking for a Gun", actor Jiang Wen led the crew to shoot the plot he wanted to film, and director Lu Chuan was smoking a cigarette on the side and was stunned......
Humility and grace have always been the preserve of the strong, and when the weak hold power, they must fully demonstrate their strength to others.
He wants to let those actors who are more senior by him know that although you have entered the industry early and have more experience than me, you are not as good as me, I face the media like this, I resist all the pressure, as long as you listen to me, I will be scolded alone.
It's up to me to let Gu Xiaofan carry everything.
This is his way of learning from Feng Xiaogang's directing and withstanding all the pressure for the actors.
The more the media are stimulated by him at the press conference, the more they will attack him, the artillery fire will be concentrated on him, and the more the actors will trust and respect him.
He wants all the actors to know that as long as you join my Gu Xiaofan's crew, no one will attack you, because I will stand in front of you and face all criticism, and I will be able to protect all of you.
The media wouldn't know that a fledgling rookie director would dare to use them to establish his prestige in the industry, and he would be so successful.
After this press conference, Deng Cao, who had been delaying the start-up ceremony due to work reasons, also stepped up the filming of the crew of "Human Love", and was about to feel the crew ...... on the day of the start-up ceremony
All the crew members gathered, and Gu Xiaofan's first movie was about to start filming
