Chapter 202: The Carmine
Chapter 202: The carmine
Long before "God of Gamblers", there were already movies such as "Happy Ghosts" and "Zombie Family" released in advance. It's just that the box office battle between these two movies, although it is difficult to distinguish between the high and low, has no signs of sweeping.
Therefore, when "God of Gamblers" is officially released, various media in Hong Kong will repeatedly report on the re-strength of Lui's films. It's just that such a strong force did not last for a few days, and "Rich Train" and "Best Partner: A Thousand Miles to Save the Poor Woman" were officially released.
"God of Gamblers", which originally attracted more than 7 million dollars in a few days, is obviously a solo masterpiece at the summer box office. But the box office taste of the two movies of Golden Harvest and New Art City after their release is strange.
Judging from the two rival movies, "Rich Train" obviously beat "Best Partner: A Thousand Miles to Save the Poor Woman" at the box office on the first day. But the most jaw-dropping thing is that Sammo Hung is indeed powerful this time. cooperated with Golden Harvest to play such a hand of stars, and the box office on the first day even surpassed "God of Gamblers".
"Sammo Hung's new work "Rich Train" surpassed "God of Gamblers" at the box office on the first day, what do you think of director Wang Jing?"
There was such a comedic scene, and naturally many reporters interviewed Wang Jing, who was in a good mood. Regarding the fierce competition at the box office, Wang Jing seemed to be very calm and said: "There is no doubt that Brother Sanmao's movies have always been very exciting, whether he edits, directs or stars in person. This time, "Rich Train" gathered so many stars to star, and the box office is indeed reasonable"
"Oh? Does director Wang Jing mean that "Rich Train" is just a strong cast? Suddenly, the reporter who had buttoned the word hurriedly continued to ask.
Of course, Wang Jing immediately denied such a question: "This movie is very exciting, and the cast is just one of the joints"
"For the box office battle, does director Wang Jing expect his "God of Gamblers" to win the summer box office championship?"
Wang Jing pondered it and said with a smile: "It's hard to see success or failure until the end of the box office, especially this time." The box office of the "Best Partner" series is also very hot"
"You mean, what you really want to watch in this box office battle is the "Nirvana Train" and "Best Partner" series of movies?"
As an old man in the circle, Wang Jing's work on Tai Chi is naturally more skilled than Lu Yan. In a few words, "God of Gamblers" was withdrawn.
Since there is no explosive news in the mouth of you, an old oilman, then we will go to Lu Yan. , a topic director in the entertainment industry, always likes to 'speak amazingly'
However, when everyone hurried to the filming set of "Rouge Buckle", they were naturally given a cold reception.
Although compared to Tsui Hark, it is easier for Lu Yan to interact with media reporters. But he inevitably suffered from a big problem with Tsui Hark, that is, he hated reporters and the like running to the shooting site to conduct interviews. Not only did this delay the filming of the film, but it was also easy to distract the cast and crew.
So what should these reporters do when they arrive at the filming set of "Rouge Buckle"? Just wait
Anyway, it's not the first time they've encountered such a director, and Lu Yan is more familiar with this director's style. But while waiting, they were not idle. Although photos and interviews are not allowed, they also observed the acting of Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui. Especially when they saw that Wang Zuxian was also on the set, some reporters immediately took paper and pen and began to record it rustling
“Cut”
When the reporters saw that Lu Yan had completed the shooting of these groups, their eyes suddenly came back to their senses and began to interview.
However, Lu Yan's face was tense when he was shooting, and when he saw this group of reporters, he showed a retrospective smile and said: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I thought you all forgot about my "Rouge Buckle". Thank you to all the reporters for joining us......"
In fact, few people who came to the scene were ready to ask about the movie "Rouge Buckle". It's not that everyone deliberately forgets, it's just that you've been making this movie for too long. I don't know when you'll shoot it, or wait until you're done
Of course, since Lu Yan said so, the reporters were still very cooperative, and asked a few words about the symbolism.
"Director Lu, how long has it been since the filming of "Rouge Buckle", when will it be completed?"
"When it's almost finished, please come over and take a group photo, it's my first literary film." Lu Yan smiled slightly, but how could everyone not understand his thoughts. "Rouge Buckle" has dragged on for too long, and most of the audience has long since paid attention to it.
But since it was Lu Yan's invitation, they would not refuse. What's more, it is also good news to come to participate in the finale of "Rouge Buckle".
"What do you think of the performance of my brother and Sister Mei?"
"Those sets of shots just now, everyone has also seen it, Brother and Sister Mei have put a lot of effort into this movie......" Saying, Lu Yan looked at Leslie Cheung and they suddenly smiled and said: "Actually, you can interview Brother and Sister Mei, and see how much I think about you, the news sent by the king and queen of heaven"
Before the reporters could react, Lu Yan had already beckoned to Leslie Cheung and them: "Brother, Sister Mei, everyone wants to interview your ......."
"It's over, he's played by him again" Suddenly, the faces of several reporters became weird.
It stands to reason that the main purpose of everyone's coming, it is impossible for Lu Yan not to know. But this director Lu Da deliberately set up a trap to let everyone politely ask about the current situation of "Rouge Buckle". Unexpectedly, this question was brought in by him. Now, even Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui have been launched as shields.
These two brothers and sisters in the music world, they really can't afford to offend. After all, it is very frequent to do their news in the future, and if you have a bad relationship now, it is estimated that even the editor-in-chief will not let go of himself.
Gotta interview with us
Fortunately, there has not been an interview about the movie "Rouge Buckle" in media newspapers and magazines for a long time, and even if "Rouge Buckle" is occasionally mentioned, it is because everyone mentioned Lu Yan.
Now that Lu Yan has even released the hero and heroine for interviews, then we will not lose. After all, you can't avoid the matter of the summer box office after all. Since you want us to help you promote "Rouge Buckle", then you must also repay us
I have to say that Lu Yan is always very clever in his 'cooperation' with reporters and media. Everyone takes what they need and achieves a win-win situation. It is precisely because of such incidents again and again that these reporters realized that the post-born director was not impulsive, but he was not running the train with his mouth full. What he says and performs in front of the media camera actually has a very clear purpose
"Brother, are there any special difficulties during the filming of "Rouge Buckle"?"
"In fact, in the movie "Rouge Buckle", the psychology of the characters is very difficult to show. But Director Lu is very strict in this regard, so I come to the mirror repeatedly at home for a few days. Even so, sometimes a shot has to be connected to Ng several times."
"Amei, how does it feel to work with Director Lu for the first time?"
"The director is a very funny person, and when we were filming, he would occasionally make everyone laugh with a ghostly expression, of course, this is when he deliberately made everyone relax. More often, he jokes together when we are resting, and he is very interested in the script, and he often shares with us his understanding of the characters...... "Although it is the first time I have worked with Lu Yan, Anita Mui has said something endlessly. This young director Lu does give her the cuteness that is different from other directors.
And the reporters were very surprised when they heard this, but they didn't expect Anita Mui, who cooperated with Lu Yan for the first time, to feel so much. However, everyone also understands that Ah Mei and Leslie Cheung are good friends. And the relationship between Lu Yan and Leslie Cheung is also super good. Now that we're filming on the same set, it's easy for everyone to get along.
Everyone has long heard that Lu Yan controls the atmosphere on the set and is a master. Now look at Anita Mui's words, there is no doubt about it.
"Wang Zuxian is also here today, is she coming to visit the class or does she have a role to perform?" It is never possible for reporters to focus on a single topic, not to mention that since Wang Zuxian and Lu Yan officially responded to the pat, few gossip newspapers have begun to scribble.
"Hehe, Joey has a good relationship with the director, and now she often cooks soup when she is not playing. Thanks to the director, we just drank the soup of Xiaoqian in a feast" Thinking of Wang Zuxian's delicate strength towards Lu Yan, it is indeed quite enviable. No matter how you look at Wang Zuxian, she doesn't look like a young girl.
"Brother, it seems that you are so envious of such love?"
Leslie Cheung smiled slightly and replied: "Of course envy, who doesn't envy, Amei, don't you envy?" ”
Suddenly, the reporters chatted with Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui. seemed to have forgotten that they still had to interview Lu Yan, as for Lu Yan, he simply went to Wang Zuxian's side to chat with this little girlfriend. Looking at Leslie Cheung who was interviewed over there, he showed a smile. This can be regarded as a kind of relaxation during shooting
