122 Yang Girl
When Fang Yang formed the crew of "Twenty Years Old Again", "You at the Same Table" was being released nationwide, and with the fame of the first two movies, this movie was also a big hit, and the release date refreshed the record of 52O box office in a single day of "To Youth", but the total box office settlement was 69 million, slightly lower than the total box office revenue of "To Youth?.??". `
Another 20 million profits were shared, Fang Yang sighed that the money was easy to earn, and after giving every employee of the company a big red envelope, he began to spend a lot of money on publicity for "Twenty Years Old Again", and strive to exceed 100 million yuan at the box office of this movie.
In the past few years, the film industry has been sluggish, and there are not a few good movies in the market, and it cannot be said that big directors like Lao Mouzi and Xiao Gangzi can't make good movies, and every film they make can win awards at foreign film festivals, but they have really not made films that cater to the market in recent years.
Catering to the market is not necessarily a good movie, a good movie is not necessarily suitable for the taste of most audiences, Fang Yang's first "Those Years", looking back at it with his current eyes, can be regarded as a shoddy bad movie, the crew is unprofessional, the actors' acting skills are bad, the production cost is low, the only thing worthy of praise is that Fang Yang used plagiarism to coherent the plot. After its release, it catered to the tastes of many audiences, which caused a box office miracle.
The second "To Youth" has the original director Zhao Wei joining, and the quality of the film has immediately improved to a notch, the first-class plot and passable performances have created a surprising box office, and the same is true of "You at the Same Table": With Gao Xiaosong's joining, Yu Zhiyu's acting talent, and Fang Yang's own acting skills have improved, it is foreseeable to have such a box office.
Now Fang Yang has not only improved his acting skills, but also has his own style for the director's profession, of course, his style is different from any director in the world, he is a plagiarism style, fast and ruthless, others can't learn it.
"Twenty Years Old Again" has two versions in China and South Korea for him to plagiarize, so he is very confident and wants to break through the box office 100 million yuan mark.
The film plans to invest 10 million, of which 5 million is for publicity, and a kick-off press conference was held first, inviting many media reporters, and the crew was attended by Fang Yang, Wen Yubi and other main actors, as well as Gao Xiaosong, who continued to serve as a producer in the film. The original director of this movie, Chen Zhengdao, is bent in Taiwan, and he is not famous yet, Fang Yang can't find it if he wants to, it's not that every movie has to find an original director to assist in the shooting, but I feel that it is more joyful to let the original director work for him, a copycat director.
"Hello Director Fang, I am a reporter from Film News Express, according to statistics, you are now the most profitable director in China, the cumulative box office of the Youth Campus Trilogy has exceeded 150 million, many people think that you have surpassed the four major directors in the mainland, what do you think."
Fang Yang said modestly: "I don't agree with the four major directors, the box office can't explain it, my youth trilogy just caters to the tastes of many audiences, Lao Mouzi and Xiao Gangzi have won awards for each of their films, and I can't compare to them in terms of artistic value." ”
"Hello Director Fang, I am a reporter from Southern Entertainment Daily, and the three films you have directed now have a common phenomenon: Lin Shuyin, the heroine of the first "Those Years", Wen Yubi and Zhong Xiaofang, the heroine of the second "To Youth", and Yu Zhiyu, the heroine of the third "You at the Same Table", these actresses are all your alumni, but the school you attended is not a school specializing in acting, why did you choose them?"
Fang Yang thought for a while and said: "As we all know, the investment cost of my first work "Those Years" is very low, I can't afford to hire professional actors at all, so I have to find familiar classmates to be my actors for free, count me lucky, the first debut film was a success, and when I filmed the second "To Youth", it was Wen Yubi's acting skills are good, although she has not undergone formal training, her acting talent is not inferior to that of professional actors, and similarly, Yu Zhiyu, the heroine of the third "You at the Same Table", is also a natural actor. ”
"Hello Director Fang, I want to ask another question, now several female protagonists of the youth trilogy, Bao Yu Zhiyu and others have become popular by you by unknown people, and the media calls them Yang Girls, which of them do you like the most?"
Fang Yang laughed and said: "Your media is helping me form a gang, they are all very beautiful and cute girls, I like every single one, don't talk about me, even our producer Teacher Gao likes them, right?" ”
Gao Xiaosong next to him said uncooperatively: "I like them, but that's like liking my daughter, it's different, hehe." ”
The reporter immediately asked excitedly: "What Mr. Gao means is that Director Fang's liking for them is the kind of liking between men and women, right?" ”
Gao Xiaosong waved his hand happily and said, "I didn't say this, you better ask Director Fang directly!" Hahaha! ”
The reporter immediately asked Fang Yang: "May I ask Director Fang, is it true that you and Yu Zhiyu are in love?" ”
Fang Yang smiled: "Mr. Gao, this is causing trouble for me, but today we won't talk about my private life, let's talk about my new movie "Twenty Years Old Again"! ”
He turned around and pointed to the cast behind him and said: "Let me introduce to you, this is Wen Yubi, our heroine, this is Teacher Gui Yalei, who played the heroine in her old age, she is an old artist that everyone is familiar with, and there are many scenes in the beginning of the movie, this one is"
Gui Yalei was more than ten years younger at this time, but Fang Yang still decided to use her, anyway, there is a magical makeup technique, it is more difficult for the old to become tender, and it is easier for the tender to pretend to be older, the other actors are looking for professional actors, and now Fang Yang is willing to spend money, and the actors he is looking for are all famous actors.
The focus of the reporters was focused on Wen Yubi: "May I ask Wen Yubi, Director Fang has shot four movies so far, and you played the heroine in two movies, does it mean that Director Fang values you more?" ”
Wen Yubi showed the most charming smile and said while posing to take pictures of reporters: "Actually, I am the least favored among the Yang girls, Yu Zhiyu, Lin Shuyin and Zhong Xiaofang are all his classmates, and I am just an alumnus, but Director Fang is never emotional at work, he said that this role is the most suitable for me to play, so let me play it." ”
The reporter followed her words and put on the emotional aspect: "Then may I ask, which Yang girl is the most favored?" Is it Yu Zhiyu? ”
Wen Yubi smiled like a flower: "You guess." ”
