Chapter 238 238 Media Meeting
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Han Sanpin was in his office, holding the report that the number of viewers of "Crazy Stone" in South Korea exceeded 2 million, and Han Xiaoli, who was sitting opposite, excitedly cocked the table with his fingers and said:
"Mr. Han, your vision is really good, I didn't expect that little girl surnamed Yin to be so good, we actually won such a box office in Seagate Cinemas alone, this result is almost equal to the mainland box office, I can't imagine it~ I can't imagine it~"
"No, Xiaoli, you underestimated the role of the other person in this matter." Han Sanpin cut out the paper in the report on the North Korean Evening News that "color is the latest masterpiece of the empty director, and Chinese films break box office records in South Korea", clipped it and put it in a folder and said with a smile.
"You mean Li Xiaole?" Han Xiaoli paused, and said a little disapprerovingly: "The movies he made are good, does it have anything to do with him if we get such a big box office in South Korea?" Is it because of his personal relationship with Yin Enxin? β
"It's not about personal relationships." Han Sanpin showed a complicated expression and sighed:
"In fact, even I didn't expect that he would have such a big influence in South Korea, Seagate has never looked down on our mainland movies, and will never spend so much effort to promote it because of Samsung Group's instructions, this is entirely because they believe in the prestige that Li Xiaole established before South Korea, I really didn't expect that he could have such a great influence in the hearts of those Koreans with only one movie and one TV series."
"He has so much energy in South Korea?" Han Xiaoli was a little puzzled, he didn't know much about Li Xiaole's situation, he just looked at his files, after all, he was only twenty years old, even if he had a work, how powerful could he be?
At this time, Han Xiaoli's mobile phone rang, it was from the office of the principal of the Chinese opera, Han Xiaoli connected the mobile phone, and after a few words of greetings from the principal of the Chinese opera, Principal Wang indicated the reason for his call:
"Director Han, Director Li's open class in our school has been very successful, and the students have responded strongly, do you think you will arrange more open classes for him?"
Seeing Han Xiaoli hang up the phone and open his mouth in surprise, Han Sanpin couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"Principal Wang of Chinese opera hopes that Li Xiaole will ...... Li Xiaole went to the school to give a few public lectures. Han Xiaoli shook his head and sighed with a puzzled look: "Mr. Han, who do you say this Li Xiaole is?" It's as if he's missing anywhere. β
Han Sanpin heard Han Xiaoli's jealousy, and felt a burst of surprise in his heart, you must know that every time the production director sent by the group is scolded by the Chinese opera students for going through the motions, why does Li Xiaole have to add more scenes to the Chinese opera as soon as he goes?
"If you don't let him talk a few times, this can be regarded as a political achievement project for you and me." Han Xiaoli joked with a complicated expression.
"I'm afraid this won't work, it's not that I don't want to save face, Li Xiaole is about to hold a media conference for reporters of "Soldier Assault", and I'm afraid we won't be able to do this political performance project." Han Sanpin also smiled bitterly, he had known about this situation earlier, and he definitely wanted Li Xiaole to stay in the Chinese opera and give a few more lessons.
"So fast?" Han Xiaoli snorted lightly, this Director Li's efficiency is too amazing......
The next day, a notice appeared on the official website of China Film Group, informing that the day after tomorrow, there will be a press conference held by the two new crews of director Li Xiaole's "Soldier Assault" and Ning Hao's "Happiness Like Flowers", hoping that interested media and fans can come to participate.
Of course, tickets are not sold to the public, it is completely free, the media must have an invitation letter, and each fan club can apply to China Film Group through official channels.
Seeing that Wang Baoqiang, the protagonist of Li Xiaole's new drama, is a completely unfamiliar name, the vast number of powerful reporters can't find any information, and a powerful actor like Sun Honglei actually plays a supporting role in it, and the media on both sides of the strait and three places smell the news.
Could it be that Li Crazy is going to do something amazing? Could it be that he is really so confident in his ability to train actors that he dares to use such a completely unknown actor?
This is completely the level of treating himself as Zhang Yimou, "My Father and Mother" Lao Mouzi used the pure newcomer Zhang Ziyi, and it became an instant hit, is this Wang Baoqiang also a newcomer handsome guy somewhere?
Everyone is looking forward to it......
On Saturday, China Film's press conference was held in the lobby of the Yunhe Hotel, and the scene was arranged by the prop master like a jungle of field troops.
On the podium of the press conference, the set wall is glued with various military supplies, Swiss army knives, steel helmets, props grenades, explosives bags, etc.
"Are these chairs enough? Mr. Han? "There are hotel staff carrying two chairs, and there are at least 20 folding chairs behind him, and now 500 chairs have been made full of reporters and movie fans, and the chairs in the hotel lobby are really not enough, so I can only go to the upstairs guest room to move some down
Han Sanpin, who was just named the director of the second studio, shook his head and waved his hand: "Go ask Producer Lei about this." I also sighed in my heart.
There are only a few people in the second producer, but Li Xiaole's deputy Lei Ting has a good schedule, and a few people can do such a complicated news conference organization without leakage, but I didn't expect Li Xiaole to be really a hidden dragon and crouching tiger around him.
When Li Xiaole came down from the upper floor with the main members of the two crews, the flashes were immediately connected, and under the shooting of "pop, pop", the camera focused on Wenzhang next to Li Xiaole, tweezers away.
The media sensitively felt that one of these two people was the male protagonist of Li Crazy's new film, but when Li Xiaole and a group of people sat down, the secretary Xiao Wang acted as the host and introduced the actors one by one to greet everyone, and everyone pricked up their ears and waited for the introduction of the actor of "Soldier Assault".
"Let me introduce to my media colleagues, the protagonist of "Soldier Assault" this time, Xu Sanduo, is a non-professional actor Wang Baoqiang~ Baoqiang, please stand up and say hello to everyone~"
Just look at the dark skin and stupid cloth, not even 1.7 meters tall Wang Baoqiang stood up a little shyly, showing two rows of big white teeth and smiling honestly.
Everyone was stunned, thinking that they had heard it wrong, but the host Xiao Wang added another sentence: "My Xu Sanduo Wang Baoqiang is very simple, and he forgot to introduce himself, please bear with me." β
"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Baoqiang...... In the Soldier ...... Soldier assault force I play is Xu Sanduo. Wang Baoqiang reacted at this time, looked at the rows of flashing lights below and stammered, his smile was also very stiff, and it was inevitable to be nervous in the face of this kind of big scene at first.
The reporters below immediately began to talk to each other.
"My God, where did this Li Crazy find this superlative, who speaks Mandarin with such an accent, and he is the starring actor?"
"It's too old-fashioned, right, can you be the protagonist like this? I knew I should have signed up to learn acting. β
"Come on, I think you're much better looking than him, there's no drama~ I think this person looks more like a migrant worker than an actor, right?"
Just when everyone was talking, Wang Baoqiang's black face turned red for a while, and he glanced at Li Xiaole, Li Xiaole smiled at him, and Wang Baoqiang mustered up the courage to continue: "I used to practice martial arts in Shaolin Temple, I was not born in the acting major, and I have been serving as an extra, please take care of me~"
When everyone heard this, there was an uproar again, ...... it turned out to be an extra? Li Crazy actually found an extra to act as a faΓ§ade, is he really crazy?
You must know that no matter what TV series, the plot says how ugly the male protagonist is, in fact, the protagonists are generally not ugly, such as Sun Honglei, which can only be said to be not very good-looking, but it is still quite conspicuous among ordinary people, because their temperament feels very different.
And this Wang Baoqiang is not only ugly, but more importantly, ugly and featureless, you can meet more than a dozen people with this kind of appearance at the train station, and you can't remember his face at all, which is typically the face of an extra.
In fact, not only the reporters in the audience were stunned, but even the other actors in the first episode of "Soldier Assault" were surprised, they didn't expect that the protagonist of "Soldier Assault" this time was such a person.
But after a short period of stunned, all the media came to their senses, Li Crazy really went crazy, isn't this the most haode news point?
After the introduction of the actors, it was time for reporters to ask questions, and reporters from all walks of life couldn't wait to raise their hands.
"May I ask Director Li, what is the purpose of this time that you chose Wang Baoqiang as the leading actor?" The question was asked by a female reporter from Phoenix TV.
"Because of the suitability for the role, Xu Sanduo can no longer find a second person in the country who is more suitable than Baoqiang." Li Xiaole took the microphone and replied calmly.
"Then can I ask, did you know Mr. Wang Baoqiang before?" The reporter of Phoenix Satellite TV quickly grasped the key point and asked the question. The previous sentence is just foreshadowing, this sentence is what he wants to ask.
Li Xiaole laughed when he heard it, this question is full of traps, worthy of being a reporter from Phoenix Satellite TV, if it is usual, he will say: "It doesn't matter, it's the relationship between the actor and the director." "It's a brushstroke, but today he is here to make "Soldier Assault" more popular, so he didn't shy away from laughing:
"Bao Qiang was the first friend I met when I went back to China, and I used to be my assistant......"
Dozens of reporters in the audience all showed a look of sudden realization, and many of them wrote this down with a smile and satisfaction, which is so interesting~ Li Crazy used his assistant with no acting experience to play the leading role~ It's no wonder that this fan doesn't scold him to death.
