Chapter 30: Press Conference (Part II)
"There will be a press conference for the finale, you guys will chat first, and if you don't have makeup, hurry up and put on makeup, I'll be busy first!" Seeing the arrival of almost all the more important actors, Yang Tao breathed a sigh of relief and began to make arrangements.
As a director, you are not only busy on the set, but also when you are away from the set.
may be about to separate, Menjie and the others still cherish this time and chat together, and after a while, the press conference will begin.
The press conference started on time, and Menjie and others sat on the stage with smiles on their faces, waiting for the reporters in the audience to take photos and ask questions.
Although it has not officially started, the flashing lights in the hands of the reporters have not stopped, flashing tirelessly, and the experienced actors have been tested by the flashes for a long time, so they are naturally fearless, facing the front and showing their best side.
Although he has not experienced much of this kind of scene, Menjie can be regarded as having the last experience, smiling and looking at the reporters in the audience, constantly thinking about what questions the reporters will ask.
This is also in the domestic entertainment industry, everything seems relatively relaxed, Menjie once heard that star artists in South Korea, but whenever they appear on variety shows or are interviewed, they must think of all possibilities in advance and rehearse, and only after becoming a big name can they be a little easier.
Thinking of the news in the Tianwang system about Korean artists being ruthlessly squeezed by the company, Menjie secretly rejoiced that he was fortunately Chinese.
After the press conference began, the reporters' questions first focused on Director Yang Tao, and Menjie and others also fell into temporary idleness.
"Director Yang, how high do you think the ratings of this drama will be? Can you tell us about that? ”
Yang Tao is also experienced in the face of this group of reporters, and he said very officially, "The ratings completely depend on the support of the audience, but as far as I and the crew are concerned, I still hope that the higher the better!" ”
"Director Yang, the ratings of the top-ranked costume martial arts TV series Tianlong Babu last year were 4.8%, do you think the ratings of Tianlong Babu can surpass the ratings of Tianlong Babu?" The reporters were naturally not satisfied with Yang Tao's answer, and asked tentatively.
"Every actor in Heaven and Dragon Slayer has played very well, although he is not absolutely confident that he will surpass Tianlong Babu, but at least he can fight a tie with them!" The reporters in the audience were stunned for a while, and everyone heard the meaning of Yang Tao's words.
At least a tie? I'm afraid that if it weren't for the fear of spreading topics like "Yang Tao's prediction, Tianlong Babu is not as good as relying on the sky to slay the dragon", if you offend the director and actors out of thin air, I am afraid that you will directly say at least 5% of the ratings!
"Yang Tao is very confident, then may I ask the leading actors, can you predict the ratings of Heaven and Dragon Slayer?" As soon as director Yang Tao's voice fell, the reporters turned their attention to the other actors, and none of them escaped the reporters' questions, only the numbers broke out.
Of course, none of these figures are lower than 4.8%, after all, the director has said that at least this number, no one dares to say less, smear the crew!
Even when it was Gao Yuanyuan's turn, she jokingly said the 10% rating, as for asking Menjie, she knew that this TV series had the highest rating of 6.1%, and Menjie naturally gave this number.
6.1%, which is still a large number among the numbers predicted by the crew members, most of them are between 4.8% and 5.5%.
Speaking of this about the cleaning up, the curtain has basically come to an end, and then another reporter came up, "Yang Tao, may I ask when the TV series "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" will be able to be put on the screen and meet the audience?" ”
"It's just finished now, and some post-production is still needed, and it is estimated that it will be about April and three months later, and it will be ready to meet the audience!" …,
Then, the reporters asked a few more topics that basically all the reporters were interested in, and then they started their own big scuffles, and each reporter set their eyes on the actors they were interested in.
"Director Yang, how did Menjie perform in this film?"
"Menjie's performance can be said to be very good, although he is a newcomer, his acting skills are not bad at all, and he can even be said to be on par with the heroine Gao Yuanyuan, and he is an actor with great potential!" Speaking of love for the general, Yang Tao did not hesitate to praise.
"Menjie, I heard that you sang the theme song and ending song of Heaven and Dragon Slayer, I wonder if you have any idea of releasing a record?"
Immediately afterwards, the reporters turned their attention to Menjie, wanting to dig up more exciting news from this recent media darling.
First of all, because of the fact that Menjie sacrificed his life to save Jia Jingwen, and the news of Menjie's participation in kung fu spread, it can be said that in the entire crew of Heaven and Dragon Slayer, Menjie's current attention is much higher than that of Su Youpeng, and he is naturally focused on by reporters.
"I do have this idea, but the company is currently collecting songs for me, and it is still unknown when the record will be released, but I can guarantee that my first record will definitely not disappoint everyone!" Menjie chuckled and said politely, which can be regarded as a small advertisement for himself.
"Menjie, what did you think when you had an accident on the set before and sacrificed yourself to save Jia Jingwen? Do you have a crush on Jia Jingwen? ”
"Jia Jingwen, how did you feel when Menjie rescued you? Do you have a crush on him? ”
"Menjie, I heard that Zhou Xingchi came to visit you a few days ago and decided to use you as a supporting role in his new movie, how did you know Zhou Xingchi? Is it because of the unspoken rules? ”
In the next period of time, reporters asked questions to the crew of the Heaven and Dragon Slayer Bureau, and the most asked about them was not Su Youpeng but Menjie, which really made Menjie a little unbearable.
Among these questions, such as asking questions about Menjie Records, it is quite gratifying, it is a free advertisement, but there are also some questions about whether they are with Jia Jingwen and whether they are under the unspoken rules of Zhou Xingchi, which is really entangled.
However, Menjie did not dare to turn his face with the media for the time being, and only wore a slightly stiff smile, ignoring these questions.
Anyway, there are more reporters who ask questions, ignoring some sharp questions is also a means of being interviewed, if you don't ask good questions, naturally there are other reporters who ask, not all reporters are so unscrupulous, they will only ask some questions that embarrass celebrities.
With the passage of time, more than three hours have passed since this press conference, not to mention Menjie and others, even the reporters are a little tired, seeing that it is almost the time, Yang Tao also announced the end of the press conference, and everyone dispersed.
