When many viewers were looking forward to more news from "Lao Qian", everyone's eyes were deeply attracted by the "Golden Photography Award" on March 29, and the movie "The King's Man" won a total of 3 important awards at the "29th Golden Photography Awards", including the Gold Award for Photography, the Director of Photography Award and the Newcomer Actor Award (Lee Joon-gi).

……………………………………………………………………………………

April 3, Grand Hyatt Seoul.

The media from all sides who got the news rushed here, and the spears and cannons were aimed at the hotel. As for why?

The production conference of "Lao Qian" is about to be held here!

The entertainment media of all parties who learned the news were like sharks smelling fishy, and they rushed to the event site early, thinking that they were the first to arrive, but they didn't expect that there were people who came earlier than themselves, especially when they looked at the past, they were all acquaintances.

At nine o'clock in the morning, all the media can enter, it seems that it has long expected that so many media will come today, and the organizer of the production and press conference of "Lao Qian" Grand Hyatt Hotel has long been prepared. The largest conference room was vacated in advance, so there was no embarrassing situation where there were reporters who had nowhere to sit before the press conference began.

What is a journalist? Every journalist is a man of God. Because he can say that the dead are alive, and the living are dead, of course, the vast majority of reporters are good, but there are many bad moths among these people, especially in entertainment records, this phenomenon is more common, and it is simply more than one to lose the discipline. It is estimated that if there is a situation where there is no place for a reporter to sit, it will be like the evil witch in the fairy tale "Sleeping Beauty".

The same is true for carriage and horse fares, which are similar to the role of 'hush money'. When reporters from the media arrive at the conference room of the Grand Hyatt Hotel, they only need to take out their work cards and sign them to get a lump sum of money. Not much, of course, not a lot, many reporters touched the thickness of the red envelope, and then the corners of their mouths showed a hint of a smile.

After all the media friends entered, the production conference of "Lao Qian" officially began at ten o'clock in the morning.

Under the leadership of the director and the main creative staff, the protagonists of the play, Cho Seung-woo, Kim Hye-so, Baek Yun-sik, Yoo Hae-jin, and director Choi Dong-hoon all attended the press conference at the scene.

When several leading actors walked out of the backstage, countless flashing lights on the scene lit up at the same time, shaking people almost couldn't open their eyes, and it was at this time that Jung Hyuk Jae finally understood why all the stars wore sunglasses when they got off the plane and walked out of the exit, in fact, it was not for pretending. Forced, but the flash is so sad, it's almost blinding rhythm.

As the main creator, screenwriter and director of the movie, Jung Hyuk-jae took the lead in taking the microphone from the hands of the host on the side, looked at the dense reporters in the audience, and said: "Thank you for coming to the press conference of "Lao Qian", I really didn't expect so many reporters and friends to come. ”

"Haha......"

"It's humorous."

Jung Hyuk-jae's words attracted bursts of laughter from the reporters on the scene, sure enough, he was a young director, and the atmosphere of the active scene was very good, and after the laughter, everyone's eyes paid attention to Jung Hyuk-jae on the stage, looking forward to his next performance.

"Everyone should have seen the cartoon "Lao Qian", right?" Jung Hyuk-jae suddenly asked a question while holding the microphone.

Although it was a sudden question, the reporters in the audience were also quite face-saving, and many people naturally answered, "I've seen it!" ”

"I read this comic when I was in school."

After all that is said. A few reporters, you look at me, I look at you, and they all blushed and lowered their heads, as if the two sides had swapped places, and they became the interviewees, which was inevitably a little embarrassing.

Hear the answers from the reporters in the audience. Jung Hyuk-jae also smiled and continued: "Actually, I also watched it when I was in school, and I liked the protagonist Goni's gambling skills very much, thinking about how good it would be if I could have such a hand." ”

Zheng Hyuk-jae's words caused a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience, after all, most of them were big boys at that time, and they all had dreams, because of the influence of "God of Gamblers", Fa Ge's classic style and fancy techniques in the movie are the objects of imitation by boys, and "Lao Qian" is naturally no exception.

"Xu Yingwanxi, the original author of "Lao Qian", is also a cartoonist I like very much, and he can realize his favorite dream when he grows up. This is the best gift for me when I grow up, of course, I actually want to play the male protagonist Goni in it, after all, not only is he young and golden, but he can also be accompanied by a beautiful woman like Kim Hye-so, which should be something that many men dream of, right? Saying that, Jung Hyuk-jae stretched out his hand and pointed to Kim Hye-so beside him, causing the heroine to wave her hand again and again with a red face.

"Of course, I also know that I am not the life of the male protagonist, after all, a handsome man like Cao Chengyou xi, I can't compare!" The following sentence also complimented the male protagonist in the play. not only attracted bursts of applause from the audience, but also attracted the goodwill eyes and smiles of the leading actors. The effect is quite large.

"To be honest, to be able to direct the movie "Lao Qian", I would like to thank Xu Yingwanxi very much for directing and encouraging me when adapting the comics, and the perfect release of the script is also inseparable from Xu Yingwanxi's credit!"

At the beginning of the press conference, Zheng Hyuk-jae spent more than ten minutes to promote the movie "Lao Qian" to the reporters on the scene, and even praised all the crew members. Then he handed the microphone to Cao Chengyou beside him.

Cao Chengyou took the microphone handed over by Zheng Hyukzai, smiled at Zheng Hyukzai, and then said: "Zheng PD praised me fiercely just now, there are not many handsome male directors like Zheng PD in the entertainment industry, colleagues in the entertainment industry." If you don't have a boyfriend yet, you have to hurry up, Zheng PD is still single. ”

Although I am not particularly familiar with it, but the production of the press conference, naturally there is no need to be too serious atmosphere, and some ridiculous words are also acceptable, this is not Cao Chengyou's voice just fell, and the audience suddenly burst into laughter, although I knew that this was a joke, but there were still many female reporters' eyes on Zheng Hyuk Jae's body, this is the 'Golden Turtle Son-in-law', it turns out to look like this!

Even Kim Hye-so, who was on the side, couldn't help but look at Jung Hyuk-jae on the side, thinking that if he was a few years younger, he didn't want to eat this tender grass.

When the heroes and heroines in the play took the microphone, it was obvious that there were more questions from the reporters in the audience, especially Cao Seungyou and Kim Hye-so, an actor and a queen, but they appeared in this movie one after another, not to mention that there are old actors like Yoo Hae-jin and Baek Yun-sik, all of whom are powerful in acting, and such a luxurious case combination naturally attracted the attention of countless audiences.

"Cho Seungwoo xi, may I ask why you took this movie?" A reporter in the audience asked.

Regarding this question, Cao Chengyou still thought about it carefully, and then replied: "Actually, the main reason is because of Jung Hyuk Jae's invitation and the mature script he brought. ”

"Lao Qian" is a good comic, but the adaptation of the movie is different from the comics, because it is unrealistic to want to integrate all the plots in the four comics in just two hours, so a good movie naturally needs a good screenwriter, and the script brought by Jung Hyuk Jae Xi is a mature and high-quality script, and I like the role of Goni in the play."

"In addition, I am also a fan of "Lao Qian"."

Cho Seung-woo, who was also born in 1980, said that his eyes met with Jung Hyuk-jae, and after inadvertently holding each other, the two smiled at each other kindly, and the atmosphere of the crew was quite harmonious.

After the reporters asked Cao Seung-woo a few more questions, everyone's eyes in the audience had already paid attention to Kim Hye-so, who was sitting next to Jung Hyuk-jae, even when he asked Cho Seung-woo a question just now, there were many people's eyes that never left Kim Hye-so, even if he simply sat on the stage, Kim Hye-so was still the natural luminous body, deeply attracting the attention of men and women in the audience, both male and female.

Compared with the simple questions asked by Cho Seung-woo, the next questions that reporters asked Kim Hye-so were a bit tricky.

"Kim Hye-soxi, in the comic version of the original book "Lao Qian", Ms. Zheng has a lot of naked. Are these images also filmed in the filming of the film? ”

Before coming to this press conference, he had already made preparations before coming, and took advantage of the short time to roughly read the cartoons of "Lao Qian", and then there was such a question.

Kim Hye-so is no longer a newcomer in the entertainment industry, although such a question seems a bit tricky, but it can't stump him, I saw Kim Hye-so smile slightly, and then he explained: "Actually, after reading the script brought by Jung Hyuk-jae and Zheng PD, I clearly understood that there is some naked in the play. Dew's shots. ”

As soon as Kim Hye-so's words fell, there was a commotion in the audience. Exposed shots? Could it be that a good gambling movie is going to be made into three. Grade film? After listening to Kim Hye-so's words, such questions inevitably rose in the hearts of the reporters.

For the noisy discussion caused by his words, Kim Hye-so has already predicted, although the time has entered 2006, the atmosphere in South Korea is still a little conservative to be honest. Lu, the audience has a natural curiosity, which can be regarded as an alternative promotion for the movie!

"Of course, the nudity in the play. The exposed shots are all for the next plot, and they will not appear as everyone thinks. Kim Hye-so then explained.

But having said that, many reporters in the audience have already thought of tomorrow's entertainment headline in their hearts, ""Lao Qian" naked. The exposed lens is eye-catching, and the gambling film is afraid of becoming three. Graded films" ......
