Chapter 486: Strong Expectations and Strong Prestige

April 3rd.

Nankun City, multi-functional conference hall of Nanhua Hotel.

The launch conference of "Truman's World" will be officially held here.

In front of everyone's eyes, in the center of the line of sight, is a huge projection screen, the projection screen is still black, and in front of the projection screen is a row of seats.

More than 200 people had already arrived, and the conference hall was all packed.

The conference hall has been re-tied, and the previous tables, chairs and benches have now been replaced by rows and rows of stools, which frees up a lot of space, but even so, there are still some people on the scene who can't find seats, and the scene is a little chaotic, and some people can only stand and stare dryly.

At this point, the subtitles start to beat on the projection screen:

"Distinguished guests, leaders, the press conference for the launch of "Truman's World World" is about to begin, please turn off your mobile phone."

"Or switch to airplane mode......"

"Or throw it out the window."

Seeing the last one, everyone laughed, and now some of the tension caused by grabbing a seat is now a lot more relaxed.

After such a prompt, Li Chencan and Tang Wenqing also came to everyone's eyes, and then sat in that row of seats.

When many people saw this scene, they instantly sat down, because they knew that the launch conference of the movie had officially begun.

Sure enough, the host after that began to talk about the process of today's press conference, and also introduced the introduction of "Truman's World", as well as the main cast and crew of the movie.

The first to introduce is naturally Li Chencan.

The crackling applause rang out at the moment of introducing Li Chencan. Let the whole venue reverberate in such applause.

When Tang Wenqing was introduced, Tang Wenqing also stood up and signaled, and there was a very strong applause. The two deserve to be the two protagonists today, and many people's attention is also on the two of them.

After the general introduction of these people, Li Chencan also said something.

"When I was filming Infernal Affairs, I said that I put a lot of effort into that movie, and it was also a film that achieved some level of innovation, and then it was made...... I think everyone has seen that I have fulfilled my promise. And today. As "Truman's World" is about to officially start filming, I can also promise you that "Truman's World" is also an innovative film. The idea of this movie is something that everyone has never seen, as for the idea...... Maybe other movies will cover it, but it's definitely different from mine. ”

Li Chencan said a little more, mainly around the innovation of "Truman's World World". Everyone heard Li Chencan's voice. I have more understanding of this movie and have greater expectations.

"Sure enough, it's another innovation!" Many film critics and film industry evaluators who applied to come to the scene are of course some famous, and at this time they are thinking about such a question in their hearts, thinking about Li Chencan's innovation again.

"It's just that I don't know where this innovation is mainly embodied?" Everyone can only wait for Li Chencan's next statement on this issue.

According to their guesses. The innovation of this film should be mainly reflected in the fact that the protagonist has become a star in the world, but he doesn't know it.

In fact, there are some people who can guess the plot. It's just that many times, everyone may not be able to believe such a plot, after all, most people still think that only after hearing Li Chencan really say it, some things can be regarded as clear and clear.

Everyone said a few words, and when it was Tang Wenqing's turn, he just smiled in everyone's expectant eyes, and then said: "I am very grateful to Director Li Chencan for inviting me to participate in the performance, I like this story very much, and I look forward to filming it well......"

Tang Wenqing's words made everyone a little puzzled, but then they took it for granted - this guy has very few words, and the feeling is completely different from the feeling in his early comedies......

The launch conference of "Truman's World" rarely plays with virtual things, such as some singing and dancing performances and the like are absolutely non-existent, and many of them are dry goods. Therefore, after these necessary links have passed, it is soon time for the reporter to ask questions, and the reporter's question is the penultimate part, and after the reporter's question is answered, it is the ribbon-cutting ceremony......

At that time, the start-up conference was officially completed.

Now, the reporters are all starting to look at Li Chencan, they need the press officer to point before they can stand up and ask questions, so everyone can only wait to listen to the press officer's orders, and pray that the press officer can call themselves up early, many people have a stomach full of questions to ask Li Chencan.

The first lucky reporter stood up: "Director Li, what you said about the movie "Truman's World" is something innovative, so where is this innovation mainly reflected? ”

"Where innovation lies, it's still the creativity of the film. After all, the structure of the movie, the plot and many other things, have developed to this day, and it is difficult to come up with new tricks, my film, I can say in advance, in terms of narrative and structure, is relatively more traditional and follows a timeline, but the creativity of the movie is something that no one else has used. I think this will be verified by everyone after the official release of the movie...... Next. ”

"Director Li, the introduction of the movie "Truman's World" says that the protagonist became a star in the world without being known, what kind of process is this?"

"This belongs to the category of the specific plot of the movie, and please explore it yourself at that time, if I finish all these things now, then the spoilers are too early, you say? …… Next. ”

Next, a reporter asked Tang Wenqing a question, although Tang Wenqing didn't talk much, but he had already beaten himself out in the entertainment industry for so many years, so he was also comfortable dealing with reporters' questions.

The problem quickly shifted back to Li Chencan's body again-

"Director Li, we see that "Truman's World" can also be regarded as a literary film...... From "Saving Private Ryan" to such a movie, then your "Truman's World" is mainly a literary route or a commercial route? ”

"This, judging from my thoughts, of course I want to get a high box office at the same time, but also play a role in making everyone think, I know that this is more greedy, but I still hope that this movie can achieve as much balance as possible. After all, if "Truman's World" is just a literary film, then our 800 million investment is too expensive......" (800 million investment is the external claim of Li Chencan's personal studio).

Everyone also nodded yes, 800 million literary films are indeed too expensive.

"Then what do you think is the selling point of "Truman's World"? Although the investment is high, it is not a commercial blockbuster. ”

"It's about the quality of the movie itself, I believe that in the relatively mature film market, everyone will like this movie."

This kick-off press conference, from beginning to end, Li Chencan showed a relatively clear confidence to everyone, it seems that he does have a very clear understanding of "Truman's World", and he also has great confidence in this movie.

Thinking of these, everyone has more expectations for Li Chencan's "Truman's World Realm".

After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, all the crew of "Truman's World" soon went to Tangjiawan Town to start specific film shooting, after the movie officially started filming, many things here are much smaller in terms of hardship than when "Saving Private Ryan" was filmed, and it is not so hard at all.

It's just that in terms of details, "Truman's World" is more difficult in some places, especially when it also requires some shots that mobilize many extras, which are more troublesome and not easy to schedule.

Tangjiawan Town belongs to the scope of Nankun City, and many things are still under the jurisdiction of that side, and through its own geographical location and some other reasons, Tangjiawan Town has also formed a distinctive economic scale, so the prices here are not low, Li Chencan and his crew are filming here, and they are facing a lot of things, and the expenses are not low.

But Li Chencan has basically honed these things now, and many things have been carefully planned, so there was no overspending during the filming of the movie.

Tang Wenqing's performance is really palace-level, such a person, he rarely does anything else, that is, he studies the performance in a down-to-earth manner, and his acting skills are of course impeccable under such concentration, so this movie can't find anything wrong with the performance, scale, and shooting quality!

The filming progress of "Truman's World" is also progressing rapidly, and it is even more efficient than the original shooting plan, but Li Chencan is a director after all, after all, he is making a new movie, and he has once again become the director who rarely gets time to rest every day......

However, he can easily overcome these now, after all, he is still young, his physical vitality is very strong, and he can still maintain strong energy to cope with the filming of this movie, and the problems of film shooting have been overcome one after another, and by the middle of April, under Li Chencan's strict requirements, the filming of the film has been about 1/3 of the progress.

During this time, news also came from this year's Yenching International Film Festival Golden Dragon Awards, Li Chencan's "Saving Private Ryan" was shortlisted for 4 awards, no more, no less, not all of these four awards are awards, and several of them are consolation awards.

Seeing this, Li Chencan also understands that these should be the result of the controversy of "Saving Private Ryan". (To be continued......)
