Since Tang Xiaosheng held a press conference and publicized the filming plan of "Journey to the West: Looking for Zixia", he has become the focus of the most attention in the entire entertainment industry.

Whether it is an ordinary audience or a professional in the film and television industry, they don't know what Tang Xiaosheng wants to do. He spent 600 million yuan to make a movie, but he was almost crazy to release the movie within a month, which is completely inconsistent with the operation of the movie.

As the saying goes, no treacherous is not a business.

Most people still don't believe that Tang Xiaosheng doesn't want to make money, they think that if Tang Xiaosheng is either crazy, he has found a new movie profit model, otherwise, he would not use most of his wealth to do such a ridiculous thing.

As a result, many experts began to analyze Tang Xiaosheng's plan, and speculated how Tang Xiaosheng's "Journey to the West" would achieve profitability.

Just when everyone had different opinions on this matter, Tang Xiaosheng's public statement made all the experts' opinions nonsense, and Tang Xiaosheng's decision surprised everyone.

When asked by a reporter what kind of profit "Journey to the West" would be, Tang Xiaosheng did not answer, but publicly stated that all the future box office income of "Journey to the West" will be used for charity in the name of the Tang Long Foundation, and he will not take half a penny.

After the news came out, everyone really believed that Tang Xiaosheng seemed to be really crazy. He spent money and effort to shoot "Journey to the West", but the box office was all used for charity, which means that he not only made less than half a penny, but also had to lose at least 600 million yuan.

This kind of result. Of course, Tang Xiaosheng himself knew this, and he felt that it was completely worth it. The purpose of filming "Journey to the West" was not to make money, but to convey a message to Zixia in the future time and space through this movie, so that she could know that the Supreme Treasure of the Dao Dao was looking for her.

Now I don't know what era Zixia is in, it may be in 2018, maybe 2034, maybe 2055...... In order to ensure that Zixia can see the movie "Journey to the West", it is required that the movie must have enough reputation and influence. In the coming years and beyond. are still remembered.

To achieve this effect, it is necessary to make "Journey to the West" unique. It is for this purpose that Tang Xiaosheng intends to create more jaw-dropping gimmicks for the movie "Journey to the West".

"The fastest expensive movie in history", "The shortest production time in history", "The strongest film production team in history", ...... These labels were all deliberately made by Tang Xiaosheng. The purpose is to build momentum for the film.

And now. The film may have a few more tags. For example, "the most money-losing movie in history", "the most unreasonable movie in history", "the most bizarre movie in history" and so on. Because the film with a total investment of more than 600 million yuan actually used all the box office revenue for charity, such a thing looks at the global film and television industry. It's one of a kind.

This doesn't seem to be a movie at all, but charity in disguise, and all the investment will be wasted.

Regarding Tang Xiaosheng's decision, not only ordinary citizens and industry insiders can't understand it, but even the senior management of Dream House Film and Television Company and the directors of the crew of "Journey to the West" have expressed their opposition, and they can't see the meaning of doing this at all.

However, Tang Xiaosheng, as the president of Dream House Film and Television Company and the sole investor of "Journey to the West", his decision represents the company's decision and the producer's decision, so the entire production team of "Journey to the West" continues to act according to the plan.

The reason why he insisted on using all the box office for charity was also to expand the influence of the movie "Journey to the West". As for the hundreds of millions of yuan lost because of this, he felt that it was worth the money.

Although the voices that the outside world does not understand are overwhelming, this is not a bad thing, because "Journey to the West" has become the hottest topic among these voices, and the attention it has received has reached an unprecedented height.

In this way, Tang Xiaosheng's purpose of building momentum for "Journey to the West" has also been achieved.

Of course, he also knows in his heart that any hype can only attract a lot of attention in a short period of time, and the most important thing for "Journey to the West" to truly become a work that will be handed down to future generations is the quality of the movie itself.

So, on the day of the press conference, Tang Xiaosheng put all his energy into the production of the film, and all the work of "Journey to the West" was in full swing, and the crew officially started filming on the same day and began to enter the stage of extremely intense shooting.

In order to gain more time, the filming of the crew of "Journey to the West" was carried out 24 hours a day, without rest day and night. The entire crew has a total of 18 assistant directors, divided into three groups, everyone brainstorms and discusses the best shooting plan, and then, each group is assigned its own shooting task and takes turns.

During the filming process, Stephen Chow, Tang Xiaosheng, Lin Meimei, Bai Xiaoxiao, Hu Tianzhuan, Big Big Wolf and other actors played very ideally, especially Hu Tianzhuan and Big Big Wolf, the performance of the two of them surprised the entire crew.

Before, when Tang Xiaosheng decided to let Hu Tianzhuan play Tang Seng and Big Big Wolf play the Bull Demon King, the chief director and eighteen assistant directors in the crew all expressed their opposition, because they felt that it was too unwise to use Hu Tianzhuan and Big Big Wolf two "amateur" actors to play such an important role.

As a result, after watching the performances of Hu Tianzhuan and Big Big Wolf, I found that the acting skills of the two of them were beyond imagination, almost impeccable, and interpreted the two roles of Tang Seng and the Bull Demon King perfectly, and the acting skills did not seem to be under Tang Xiaosheng, and the staff in the crew joked that they had picked up two live treasures.

While the crew was filming day and night, the huge film and television post-production team with a total of more than 1,000 people was also ready to go.

And the most interesting thing is that before the film started shooting, Zhao Min had already begun to contact major theaters across the country as the vice president of Dream House Film and Television Company to discuss the release schedule of "Journey to the West".

Just when Zhao Min was running around for the movie schedule, Guo Xiang was also very busy, and she was in charge of the promotion of the movie.

When it comes to publicity, Guo Xiang is definitely not professional, at least inexperienced. However, Tang Xiaosheng still allocated 5 million as a fund to let Guo Xiang be responsible for the publicity of "Journey to the West" in Jinghua City. Guo Xiang is now majoring in journalism, and since she is interested in this aspect, Tang Xiaosheng gave her a chance to exercise.

After receiving this publicity task, Guo Xiang was very excited, and he finally had the opportunity to practice the professional knowledge he had learned in school. Guo Xiang is still a college student, and it is the first time to be the main person in charge of a large-scale publicity campaign, so he is still a little nervous. However, the little girl is still quite resistant to pressure, facing difficulties, and the publicity work has been completed in a big way.

In this way, all aspects of the work of "Journey to the West" are in full swing. Although the work is very tight and the pressure is very high, every member of the entire production team of "Journey to the West" is full of energy.

Because they know that they are not making an ordinary film, but a classic that will go down in history, they are challenging an almost impossible task in the history of Chinese cinema.

However, one woman tried to stop the plan. (To be continued.) )
