Chapter 385: A Little Witch Sees a Big Witch

The world premiere of "Heroes" will be held at the Great Hall of the People on December 14, the day after tomorrow. When he received this notice, Li Tang was also startled. That's the Great Hall of the People, how can you agree to let a movie have a premiere?

Come to think of it, it's the equivalent of a Hollywood movie premiering at the Capitol, is that possible?

The director is the director in the end, and he is the only one in the country who has this qualification and has this honor.

Then there is the publicity roadshow, the film's investor and the domestic distributor of the new picture Zhang is ambitious, as early as the press conference announcing the premiere of the film, he threatened that the domestic box office target of "Hero" is 100 million.

This news has caused an uproar in public opinion, you must know that in the past five years, in addition to the 120 million box office of "Life and Death Choice", the highest box office of mainstream commercial films is Feng Xiaogang's "See You or Leave", a total of only more than 40 million.

Without the blessing of the plug-in of "chartering", the box office of domestic films wants to exceed 100 million, which is simply a fantasy.

However, Li Tang is quite confident in this, because the only two popular Chinese movies he saw in the United States in his previous life were Li Yu's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and this "Hero".

And unlike "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which opened in more than 2,000 theaters as soon as it was released, "Hero" was first screened on a small scale and then slowly spread to the United States.

So compared with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero" is even more difficult, if "Hero" is the same as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", more than 2,000 theaters will be fully rolled out as soon as it is released, maybe it will be able to break the box office record of Chinese films in North America held by "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

The domestic roadshow cycle is from December 14 to the end of the New Year's Day holiday, a total of 20 days. Maybe other actors will be absent for a few days because of this and that's schedule, or take turns running several places, but Li Tang must have followed the whole process to the end.

On the one hand, the director of the premiere of "Going" gave him such a big face, and this favor must be returned.

On the other hand, he also has his own careful thoughts, the director's new film will be launched next year, in fact, the script has been made as early as during the filming of "Hero", and it is said that it is still a costume martial arts film.

If nothing else, the investor must still be a new picture and the little short-legged Jiang Ergongzi's Anle Film and Television. He wants to take advantage of this promotional roadshow to perform well and be able to mix a role in the director's new film in the future.

This time, he is ranked after Li Lian, Liang Chaowei and Uncle Daoming, and he is the fourth male lead, but next time he has to mix it up with the second male.

Today is already the twelfth, thinking that Li Tang will leave the day after tomorrow, his ex-girlfriend really looked disappointed and said: "It's really boring!" ”

Then he said in a bad voice: "Have you finished smoking?" Hurry out and get out, I'm going to cook. ”

The ex-girlfriend's craftsmanship is still quite good, and it is no wonder that she used a yin and yang weird tone to mock Xiaopang about learning to cook.

A bottle of liquor is divided into two people, Li Tang is four taels, she is six taels, everyone is just right, they can not only stay sober, but also relax and relax, the key is that it will not affect the state of studying the script.

"Hey, when is she coming back?" The ex-girlfriend asked.

"At the end of the month, when I called yesterday, I said that her play was almost half a month away." Li Tang replied while picking up the peanuts in the palace fried chicken.

Although the two are together, the topic of Chubby can't be avoided after all.

"I heard that your relationship with Jiang Qinqin is not ordinary?" The ex-girlfriend looked at him with a smile, and said another sentence coldly.

"Don't listen to nonsense, there's nothing." This product looked as usual, and even the chopsticks with peanuts didn't shake it.

As a result, his ex-girlfriend snorted coldly: "Cut, I don't know you yet?" Don't pretend, your ears turn red as soon as you lie, don't you feel your ears burning? ”

Li Tang still didn't move, just glanced at her lightly, and said, "Believe it or not, anyway, I don't have this obligation to you now." ”

The ex-girlfriend had a playful look on her face, and then said with a self-deprecating look: "Yes-you don't have this obligation to me, what will you do if you say she knows?" ”

Li Tang's chopsticks holding peanuts finally stopped, he looked up at his ex-girlfriend and sighed: "It's said that there's no such thing, why don't you still give up?" ”

The ex-girlfriend raised her eyes to look at him, and said for a long time: "I know you're lying, but it's okay, I just hope you pay more attention to personal hygiene in the future, so it's good for everyone." ”

"Uh...... No, what do you mean? ”

Li Tang was completely depressed by his ex-girlfriend, no wonder he wiped and wiped with wet wipes before sitting on it just now.

No way, the ex-girlfriend knows too much about herself, to be exact, too much about this body. Now, in addition to fusing the memories of his previous life, the emotions and habits of the original body still dominate this body. Even though he had been pretending to be calm, as his ex-girlfriend had said, he could clearly feel his ears burning.

In fact, he already knew about this problem, even if he told lies very frankly, maybe he couldn't even detect it with a lie detector, but the physiological reaction of hot and red ears could never be overcome.

Li Tang felt that this was a very boring thing, and sure enough, there was no impermeable wall. But if you ask her to come up with real evidence, there must be none, but she just thinks you are in trouble.

Fortunately, my ex-girlfriend knew how to get to the end and didn't hold on to it. Li Tang simply broke the jar and broke it, anyway, if you think this thing is true, then I don't care.

Just like the line that Jiang Wen came up with when filming the scene of "Me and Dad" that day: People with a high moral bottom line will always suffer more than people with a low moral bottom line, because you can't do it, but he can do it.

In this matter, my moral bottom line is low, what's the matter?

"During this time, I also happened to finish the work at hand, and after New Year's Day, I plan to accompany my parents on a trip with Xiuxiu."

"Where?"

"Hong Kong, Macao, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, they haven't gone abroad at such an old age."

Also, for the people of the Northeast, winter is especially yearning for the tropics. As the wave of layoffs in Northeast China has become more and more severe in recent years, I heard that many people have gone to Hainan to beg for a living.

"What about the Chinese New Year, here or back to the Northeast?" Li Tang asked casually.

"I won't go back anywhere, Xiuxiu and I have planned, and when we come back from travel, we will stay in Hainan and come back after the Spring Festival. After so many years, I don't have time to spend time with them. ”

"Hey, didn't the two movies you made say that they were both released around the Spring Festival?"

In addition to the New Year's stalls, there is no concept of Spring Festival stalls this year, after all, the current Spring Festival is about family reunion.

"It's okay, I'll fly when the time comes. Besides, there is a month between the release of the two movies. ”

When it comes to filial piety, these sisters are absolutely okay.

In fact, squeezing out time to spend with his family this time is quite a big loss for his ex-girlfriend. After all, the period from New Year's Day to the Spring Festival is the peak season for celebrity commercial performances and cave walking. Like an ex-girlfriend, it is easy to run for ten days and half a month, one or two million.

"What about your work next year, do you have eyebrows?"

Speaking of this, the ex-girlfriend finally smiled happily and said, "I'm going to appear in Director Feng's new movie next year." ”

"Hey, didn't Feng Xiaogang terminate the contract with your company a long time ago?" Li Tang was surprised.

The ex-girlfriend sighed and said: "The movies that the company has invested in in the past two years have either a long cycle, or they are not popular." There is no way, the king just needs to invite Director Feng back again. ”

Thinking about it, there are a lot of movies made by Huayi in the past two years, compared to how to evaluate Jiang Wen's "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", whether it is preparation or start-up, it is earlier than "Hero", which will premiere in two days, but there is no news yet. I'm afraid that when it is released in the future, it is likely to be considered a follow-up work of "Heroes".

There is also "Looking for a Gun" with the name of young director Lu Chuan, which has been released in China before participating in the Venice Film Festival. As my ex-girlfriend said before, the domestic box office is less than 10 million, and I can't even get back a fraction of the investment. As for the overseas rights represented by Colombia, it is said that they follow the path of commercial films, but it is said that the box office is very unsatisfactory when it is released in Australia, and it has not yet been released in Europe and North America.

others such as "Carla is a Dog" directed by Senior Lu and starring Uncle Ge; Director Gao Xiaosong, Uncle Daoming starred in "My Heart Flying" or something, these are all art films, in addition to taking the road of overseas film festivals, the expectations of the domestic box office are actually not high.

"So Director Feng's new movie still follows the path of Chinese New Year films?"

To be honest, even if there is a director's "Hero" released in this year's Lunar New Year, but without Feng's comedy, even Li Tang feels a little regretful.

"That's for sure, Director Feng's new film is the company's most important project next year." The ex-girlfriend nodded with her eyebrows fluttering.

Speaking of which, she has followed Sister Hua to join Huayi for more than two years, the first year was not in time, the second year Feng Xiaogang terminated the contract, and now Feng Xiaogang and Huayi have merged again, and they can finally be on the movie of a big director, and the ex-girlfriend is very excited.

Seeing this, Li Tang couldn't help but say: "Then you play the female number one this time?" ”

"What do you think, female number two!"

It seems that the ex-girlfriend is already very satisfied with the role of the female number two.

"Who is the female number one? This time it's still a combination of Feng Xiaogang and Uncle Ge? Li Tang then asked curiously.

Feng's comedy, the iron-clad Ge You, and the female number one in flowing water.

"Well, the female number one is the director's wife." The ex-girlfriend nodded.

Seeing that Li Tang still wanted to ask, he hurriedly said: "I can only tell you so much now, I signed a confidentiality agreement." ”

“……”

As the boss of Shengtang Film and Television, to be honest, Li Tang is still very envious of Huayi Brothers for being able to have such a cash cow as Feng Xiaogang. Not to mention far away, let's just say that the "Big Names" released in the Chinese New Year file last year is enough to recoup the investment in the product placement legend, and the domestic box office of nearly 40 million, including the overseas income of nearly 20 countries, is a net profit.

In comparison, "The Third Man" made 30 million yuan, which sounds quite scary, but compared to others, it is simply a small thing.

The second more, cheekily ask for a ticket!
