Chapter 22 Boot Conference
Chapter 22 Kick-off Conference
A movie with a small investment, high returns, a bumper box office reputation, and a sensational movie, except for "Crazy Stone", Zhang Le can't think of other movies, of course, in other words, he has never seen other movies that meet such conditions.
What's more, there is no cover in this world. Ricky. The impact of the film "Crazy Stone" will go far beyond the previous life.
The multi-line continuation, the bizarre coincidences that make things go crazy in an irreversible way, this kind of Guy Ritchie movie, this kind of movie is not in this world at all.
Original and imitation, the influence of the two is naturally not the same.
"Crazy Stone" was filmed, so will the so-called Guy Ritchie technique in the previous life become the "Zhang Le technique" in this life?
Zhang Le's situation at this time, no matter what movie he makes, he will definitely be critical. He needed a film like this to make a name for himself. Moreover, it is also necessary for this film to reveal a strong directorial style. Therefore, Zhang Le did not invite any stars to this movie.
Of course, no celebrities were invited, and there were also reasons for the investment budget. But the most important thing is that Zhang Le wants people to mention this movie, and the first thing that comes to mind is not a certain leading actor, but him as a director.
Although Yang Xin'er plays the girlfriend of the male protagonist, she only has a few scenes in this movie, and strictly speaking, it is just a cameo. If you insist on his heroine, it is estimated that she will be sprayed to death.
Most of the actors in Zhang Le's movie are unpopular actors, and even many of them are tricks. The most famous is probably Feng Lei, who plays Xie Xiaomeng.
Feng Lei is the most famous, not because of his works, but because of his father. However, among all the actors with more scenes, only Feng Lei has a good work.
This also shows how "unsightly" the cast of this movie is!
When media reporters came to the launch conference of the movie "Crazy Stone", they were undoubtedly shocked by the cast of the movie.
The most famous people in attendance are undoubtedly Zhang Le and Yang Xin'er, but neither of them is an actor. Zhang Le is the director, while Yang Xiner is the producer.
None of that matters to journalists, though. They are here, not for this movie, but for Zhang Le and Yang Xin'er.
For a singer, if the singer is not popular, it is undoubtedly sad.
And for a director, if he is not popular, it is undoubtedly sad.
Zhang Le is now popular, and he is purple, but for the media, for his films, no one pays attention at all. For Zhang Le, this is not only sad, but also ironic.
Zhang Le glanced at the media reporters in the audience, glanced at Yang Xin'er, and then said to the audience: "Thank you media friends for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the press conference of my first film "Crazy Stone". I hope your next questions are related to this movie. ”
"May I ask Mr. Zhang Le, is it true that you sued Li Ming for false accusation? Why did you choose this way?" A reporter spoke.
"I can answer this question, but if there are any more questions that have nothing to do with the movie in the future, then don't blame me for not cooperating." Zhang Le said lightly, "The matter between me and Li Ming, in fact, everyone knows very well, the reason why I chose this way is actually very simple: every citizen has to use the law to protect his rights." ”
"I heard that Mr. Zhang's film was rejected by many film companies, and they were unwilling to invest in this film, obviously not optimistic about Mr. Zhang, or not optimistic about Mr. Zhang's film. So, Miss Yang Xin'er, why did you invest in this movie? Is it just because Mr. Zhang Le is your boyfriend? And Mr. Zhang Le, how can you be at ease when you pull Miss Yang Xin'er to invest in your movie, which is not favored by many film and television companies? Aren't you afraid of cheating your girlfriend?" A reporter asked.
Zhang Le and Yang Xin'er glanced at each other, and their eyes showed helplessness. The reporter's question was obviously extremely unkind. However, Zhang Le and the others had expected it before, so naturally they were not surprised, and they would not be caught off guard.
"I know him, so I believe him! It's not an exaggeration to say that I invested in this movie because he was my boyfriend. Because he's my boyfriend, I know his talent better than anyone else. I'm sure this movie will surprise everyone. In addition, it was not he who pulled me to invest in this movie, but I took the initiative to invest in it. I believe that if he is given a chance, he will prove himself to everyone. Yang Xin'er seemed to admit it very calmly.
This is well known to everyone, and there is no way to refute it. You said that you only felt invested when you watched this movie itself, and it is estimated that no one will believe it, and it will only be seen as hypocritical, and it is better to admit it generously.
"Xin'er has countless suitors, but she chose me, a person with no name and even nothing to achieve, many people don't understand and think that Xin'er has a problem with her vision. And I will prove to everyone how powerful Xin'er's vision is. And this movie is the beginning. I have self-confidence, so I have peace of mind. Zhang Le said lightly.
"May I ask Mr. Zhang Le, where does your self-confidence come from? I heard that the investment budget of this film is only four million, how can the quality of the film be guaranteed with such a low investment? If the quality of the movie is not up to standard and the production is shoddy, how do you ensure that the movie can be released? If the movie can't be released, how can the cost be recovered? If you can't recover the cost, how can you be worthy of your girlfriend's support? Didn't you cheat your girlfriend?"
"The quality of a movie is never measured by the amount of investment." Zhang Le smiled and said lightly.
"I believe that nature supports him. He will prove himself and he will prove my vision. Yang Xin'er smiled and said, "I believe it." ”
This movie has been sung down, and Zhang Le has long been accustomed to it. However, it doesn't matter, as long as Yang Xin'er is optimistic alone, it doesn't matter if the world is not optimistic.
At this time, Zhang Le glanced at Yang Xin'er, his eyes were full of happiness.
With the original version as a reference, Zhang Le believes that he will be able to shoot this film successfully. When the time comes, the faces of those people who sing about this movie will be directly swollen.
"Then may I ask Mr. Zhang Le, if the film can be released, how do you attract the audience to the theater to watch? The investment in the film determines that the film cannot invite big-name stars to join, and without big-name stars to join, what do you do to support the box office appeal of this film?" A reporter asked, "With all due respect, I only know Mr. Feng Lei in the cast of Mr. Zhang Le's film." ”
"The appeal of big-name stars to the box office is a powerful guarantee for the box office of the movie. There is no doubt about it. However, the biggest guarantee for the box office of a movie is the movie itself. The box office appeal of stars can only play a promoting role, but not a decisive role. Zhang Le smiled, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and said, "I will use this movie to prove to everyone that a low-budget movie without a big-name star will also achieve a high box office." ”
There is no doubt that Zhang Le's words are a bit arrogant. However, the media is not afraid of big things, they are afraid of nothing. For Zhang Le's arrogant words, he was naturally overjoyed.
I am not afraid that you are arrogant, but I am afraid that you are humble. Otherwise, where did the gimmick come from?
"May I ask Mr. Feng Lei, why did you take this play? And not the male lead of the movie?"
Many reporters kept asking questions about Zhang Le and Yang Xin'er, and finally someone asked Feng Lei, the famous second-generation star.
God is pitiful, and finally people have a sense of existence. Feng Lei wanted to burst into tears.
"Hehe, there are many highlights in this play, and the supporting roles also have room for full performance." Feng Lei smiled and said, "Okay, I know you don't like such an official answer. Although, what I'm telling the truth, there are indeed many characters in this drama that will be impressive, including Xie Xiaomeng, the second cargo of the pit dad I played. However, in fact, there is another reason for taking this drama, which is also what you want to hear. Zhang Le is my buddy, and he invited me to star in his first film, and I was naturally embarrassed to refuse. No way, who told me to be good at acting. Although I'm very busy, buddy is angry, and it can't be done if you don't come. ”
