Chapter 187: Zhou Xingchi's "Embarrassment" (Second Update)
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the opening ceremony of "The King of Comedy" officially began.
In the applause of dozens of reporters and 500 fans, all the actors and production staff led by Zhou Xingchi, Chen Long and Chen Lin, including Wu Yanzu, walked into the hall together, sat on the rostrum, and accepted interviews and photos from reporters.
"Brush, brush~~" For a while, I saw flashing lights in the hall.
Each of Zhou Xingchi's works is very popular with the media, and this time it was the same, there were many reporters at the scene, and almost all media organizations in Hong Kong and Hong Kong sent reporters to attend the press conference.
Zhou Xingchi himself is definitely the core figure at every press conference, the focus of the audience, and everyone else is basically a supporting role, but today is a bit of an exception.
The much-anticipated Xing Ye was not the only focus of the scene, and even the focus of the media was not on Xing Ye at the beginning.
Is the focus of the media on Brother Chen Long? No, although Brother Chen Long's influence is not under Zhou Xingchi, the reporter knows that Brother Lu Dao is just making a cameo this time, and there is no big news.
In addition to Zhou Xingchi and Chen Long, the two big-name superstars at the scene, only Chen Lin, the recent hot boss.
That's right, at the beginning of the press conference, all the reporters, without exception, were very interested in Chen Lin and his work "Death".
"At 1:20 p.m. today, the global sales of "Grim Reaper" exceeded 10 million copies, Mr. Lin, what do you think?"
"When will the animation of "Grim Reaper" cooperated by Jun Tianying and Pixar be able to meet the audience?"
"I'm a big fan of "Bleach ", is there a sequel to "Bleach " ?
The reporters asked a series of questions about the "Grim Reaper" comics, which made Chen Lin proud and embarrassed.
Needless to say, the embarrassing thing is that this is the press conference of "The King of Comedy", which seems to be a bit noisy, and Zhou Xingchi is depressed.
Zhou Xingchi was not angry, but had a wonderful feeling in his heart, which was a little helpless and a little novel. Helplessly, getting angry with a demon like Chen Lin is asking for hardship. The novelty is to think that he is the king of comedy of his generation, the star master who has attracted the attention of thousands of people, and he was robbed of his style by others for the first time in his home field. It's been a long time since he's been famous.
"Thank you for your concern, but today is the press conference of "The King of Comedy", and I'm sorry that I won't answer any irrelevant questions." Chen Lin stood up and hurriedly apologized to the reporters, and then he joked: "If you don't obey and continue to ask, Xing Ye will be angry with me, Xing Ye will be angry with me, Xing Ye will be angry with me, I will definitely not dare to reply, then I have to take my anger out on you." Hmph, if you really don't behave, I won't give you a souvenir later. ”
Chen Lin's tone was similar to coaxing children, and the reporters were amused, and they said that they were very obedient and stopped asking.
Fortunately, the reporter gave face, Chen Lin sat down and smiled at Xing Ye to apologize, Zhou Xingchi smiled bitterly at Chen Lin, and his expression was clearly saying: "I have served you!"
After such an interesting opening of the press conference, the reporters were very interested in Zhou Xingchi's true colors and the star girl. Sometimes reporters will also throw questions to Chen Lin and Chen Long. And the other actors have completely become soy sauce characters under the starlight of the three.
"Mr. Lin, you are the screenwriter of this drama. Can you tell me what is the highlight of this film, and what are your expectations for the star to appear in his true colors? ”
"First of all, I want to correct it, I am a co-screenwriter, and another screenwriter is Xing Ye himself. Starring a star is the biggest attraction. Secondly, the film is called "The King of Comedy", and the protagonist Yin Tianqiu in the film is actually a portrayal of Xing Ye himself, I believe that everyone will see the birth of a real king of comedy in this film, and see a person who really loves movies. An inspirational story of being willing to persist in fighting for your ideals. Xing Ye has never disappointed everyone, I believe it will not be this time, and I even believe that "The King of Comedy" will be Xing Ye's greatest work. Xing Ye is in my heart, no, I should say that he is the recognized king of comedy and a recognized comedy master for all Chinese. ”
"Wow~" The reporters were surprised, they didn't expect Chen Lin to praise "The King of Comedy" and Zhou Xingchi to such a high level.
"Mr. Lin is really too exalted, the king of comedy, the master of comedy, I really dare not be a comedy, I am just an actor." Not only was the reporter surprised, but even Zhou Xingchi himself was embarrassed and hurriedly became humble.
Zhou Xingchi was modest on his face, but he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, speaking of which Xing Ye has received countless praises, he should be accustomed to the praise of others, but Chen Lin's identity is different, this time and that time, Chen Lin's fame in the past month is not only in the sky, but also in Southeast Asia and the United States.
With Chen Lin's current status, even if it is obvious that he is acting and listening, it is comforting.
Indeed, there is no doubt about Stephen Chow's fame and prestige, but to be called a master of comedy is still lacking in the hearts of reporters, this is because all of Stephen Chow's current works are too commercial, and the so-called nonsense is actually a kind of vulgar culture.
The reporters at the scene only thought that Chen Lin was really touting, and they didn't care after being surprised.
Chen Lin smiled when he saw this and didn't explain, there is no need to explain, time will prove that he is right, and after the release of "The King of Comedy" next year, coupled with the continuous fermentation of "Journey to the West", with the establishment of various teams of Journey to the West enthusiasts, mainland scholars have given Zhou Xingchi the title of a master of postmodernist deconstruction.
Although even Zhou Xingchi may not understand what postmodernist deconstruction is, there is one thing that is quietly changing, that is, nonsense is not vulgar and meaningless, and he has become an exaggerated, ironic and self-deprecating form of artistic performance. At this time, there was no longer any doubt about his status as a master of comedy, the title of the king of comedy.
Another topic of interest to reporters at the press conference was the star girl.
In Stephen Chow's movies, in addition to those exaggerated plots and nonsensical funny, the star girls selected by Xing Ye also have their own characteristics and styles, and they have become an important element in Xing Ye's series of movies.
Counting the star girls in Xingye's movies, Lin Qingbian, Gong Li, Zhang Manyu, Liu Jialing, Mui Yanshu, Yuan Yongyi, Zhang Min, Qiu Shuzhen, Chen Derong, Li Jiaxin, Zhu Yin, Mo Wenwei, Zhang Baizhi, Zhao Wei, Shu Qi, Huang Shengyi, Zhang Yuqi, Xu Jiao, they are either stunning beauties or big-name movie stars, even if they are not famous newcomers, they will become popular because of their films.
Now there is a new star girl - Liu Xiaowen, this little girl cherishes words like gold in the face of reporters' questions, and her voice is very small, but her quiet and pure appearance is very pleasing, especially Chen Lin and Zhou Xingchi, the two bigwigs, are very important to her, and they do not hesitate to praise themselves in front of the media.
The future of this newcomer is limitless, and all the reporters present have such an understanding in their hearts.
Time passed quickly, and an hour passed unconsciously, and all the crew and actors of "The King of Comedy" left a group photo together.
Next is the last item of the boot ceremony, worship the gods.
Suckling pig, cola, apples, oranges, etc. set a table, Zhou Xingchi, Chen Long, Chen Lin The three bigwigs stood in the first row, and the other actors stood behind the three in two rows.
Everyone listened to Zhou Xingchi's order and bowed three times to Guan Erye, and the most embarrassed star announced loudly: "The King of Comedy is officially launched." ”
In the warm applause, the start-up ceremony was a complete success. (To be continued......)
