Chapter 350: The Man Who Will Become the King of Comedy
Coming out of the airport, Gu Wei rushed to a Wanda cinema in the capital non-stop.
At noon today, the premiere ceremony of [The Richest Man in Xihong City] was arranged to be held here.
Coincidentally, the premieres of the other two movies [Macau Fengyun 3] and "Journey to the West: Monkey King Three Fights the White Bone Spirit" are also today.
In fact, if you negotiate, you can adjust the time of the premiere, after all, the premiere is not a public screening, and it mainly plays a publicity role, and it doesn't matter if it's early or late.
However, the three companies, including [the richest man in Xihong City], have no intention of rescheduling, and competition is inevitable, so it is better to show the carriage and horses from the beginning.
The most popular [Mermaid] was to finish the premiere early, and now at this time, Xing Ye is leading the crew to run roadshows all over the country.
"Brother Teng, I've worked hard lately!"
After arriving at the scene, Gu Wei said hello to Shen Teng.
"What is this, when [Charlotte's Troubles] was released last year, we ran more places than now, we are used to it."
Shen Teng waved his hand absently, grinning and revealing his tiger teeth.
"The Spring Festival movie is released, but our opponent is Zhou Xingchi, the king of comedy, are you afraid?"
Gu Wei raised his eyebrows and asked him with a smile.
"What's wrong with Zhou Xingchi?"
Shen Teng first said loudly.
"Of course Zhou Xingchi is very good!"
Then the voice became quieter, and it felt a little soft.
"But we're not afraid of him, even if he's the king of comedy, if he doesn't really touch it, it's not known who will kill the deer."
Shen Teng's words were sonorous and powerful, but there was a sense of guilt.
"Haha~ Brother Teng, ambitious!
I have always felt that you are the next king of comedy, and it will not be a problem to surpass Zhou Xingchi at the box office in the future. ”
Gu Wei patted Shen Teng's arm and praised him.
"Isn't that right, or you're my brother, understand me, and know the potential of your brother Teng!"
Listening to Gu Wei's words, Shen Teng had a triumphant expression, which was a good interpretation of what it means to be a villain.
"When the premiere reporter interviews later, I must be so boastful!
Our main focus is to be the same on the outside and on the inside. ”
Gu Wei added.
"Don't, brother, let's be humble in front of outsiders, and when I really stand up in the future, you will praise me like this, now I'm afraid I can't stand it."
Shen Teng, who was still triumphant just now, hurriedly said.
"What can't you stand it, besides, I praise you, and it's not that you are boasting.
In my heart, Brother Teng, you just have the posture of becoming a king, just tell the truth, don't care what others say, let's just make achievements step by step. ”
Shen Teng also hesitated when Gu Wei said something, he knew that Gu Wei told him in advance that these were to make him ready, and it was estimated that he would set off a cannon in front of the media later, all for publicity.
"Hey~ I don't know if it's good or bad with a brother like you?
Say whatever you want, it's a big deal to be scolded! ”
Shen Teng sighed.
Gu Wei patted him on the shoulder.
"Brother Teng, you have to believe me, but also believe in yourself, I tell you seriously, if you are willing to come to my company, even if no one asks you to act in the future, I will praise you as the leading actor!"
Shen Teng was a little moved by what he said.
Since he met Gu Wei at the Spring Festival Gala last year, this big star and little brother has always been super optimistic about him, this feeling is like meeting a bosom friend in the mountains and rivers in the play, life is rare!
Gu Wei chatted with Shen Teng for a few more words, and Zhang Tianai walked over.
Seeing this, Shen Teng squeezed his eyes with Gu Wei and walked away with a smile.
"Gu Wei, you're here~"
For Gu Wei's appearance, Zhang Tianai was very surprised.
She knew that Gu Wei had been filming in the crew recently, and he should be very busy every day, but she didn't expect him to be present at the premiere of [The Richest Man in Xihong City].
"Well, I also came directly as soon as the plane landed in the morning, and I will go to CCTV rehearsal after the premiere in a while.
It's still adaptable to running a roadshow with the crew, right? ”
Zhang Tianai wore a fashionable white women's suit on her upper body today, and a small short skirt of the same color on her lower body, revealing a pair of straight and slender legs, and her makeup was decent, giving people the feeling of a professional strong woman.
"It's almost the same as when I promoted [Embroidered Spring Knife 2] before, that is, in this movie, I am the heroine, and I am interviewed a little more times at each press conference."
She said happily.
Don't care how popular her "Ding Baiying" is in [Embroidered Spring Knife 2], there is a gap between the female supporting actress and the female protagonist after all.
"[The Richest Man in Xihong City] will definitely be a big seller, and when it is released, your fame will be even greater, and you will be the heroine in every drama in the future!"
"Hmm!"
Zhang Tianai smiled, she had always believed in Gu Wei's words.
Although the uncertainty of the movie is very large, who wants to say that it can accurately predict whether a movie can sell well, the probability is unreliable, but if Gu Wei says it, then Zhang Tianai must believe it.
Because from their realization to the present, everything Gu Wei said finally became a reality.
He said that the movie would be successful and he could become a big star, so Zhang Tianai absolutely believed in him.
It didn't take long for the media to arrive, the audience was full, and the premiere was about to begin.
Today's premiere of [The Richest Man in Xihong City] did not invite any celebrities to help, there were only these people who were the main creators of the movie at the scene, but there were a lot of reporters, and the audience was also carefully selected, and film critics and Weibo big V invited a lot.
At the beginning of the premiere, the traditional process soon entered the question and interactive session, because of Gu Wei's presence, although he was only a nominal producer, he still attracted the attention of the media.
After the director and Shen Teng were asked two questions, the microphone quickly came to Gu Wei's hand.
"Thank you all for coming to the premiere of [The Richest Man in Xihong City] today, this is not the first time I have been a producer.
I'm an actor by profession, and once again I'm on stage as a producer, and I have a lot of things to say to everyone.
You may not know that I am the real initiator of the movie [The Richest Man in Xihong City].
As early as the end of 2014, by chance, I came across an old foreign movie [Brewster's Million Windfall].
At that time, I was attracted by the story in the movie, and I thought that it could be adapted into a domestic movie, which must be very exciting, so I did not hesitate to contact [Universal Pictures] to buy the adaptation rights of the old movie.
But I'm not good at comedy, and if I want to make a Chinese version of [Brewster's Million Windfall], I need a comedy professional.
At this time, the two directors Yan Fei, Peng Damo and Shen Teng came into my sight.
The Spring Festival Gala sketch they collaborated on is a work I have always liked very much.
It's just that they didn't have any experience in making movies before, and I was hesitant at the time.
Later, I tried to contact the two directors and learned that they had already made a movie at that time, which is the "Charlotte Troubles" that everyone knows, so I had more confidence in them. ”
Saying that, Gu Wei turned his head and looked at Yan Fei, Peng Damo, and Shen Teng.
"Next, I mentioned the movie to them, and several people hit it off, and then with the joint efforts of everyone, the script was adapted, the crew was prepared, and the film was shot in one go.
In the end, the [richest man in Xihong City] that everyone sees now has been achieved.
I am very proud of this film.
The two directors are geniuses in the world of comedy film directors, and Shen Teng is the man I think has the hope of becoming the 'king of comedy', and the film they have worked together on is absolutely wonderful in my opinion.
I hope that everyone present can enjoy this movie, and I hope that good movies can be seen by more people!
Thank you! ”
Gu Wei said a lot and was very informative.
The reporters in the audience looked excited, and the cameras in their hands kept shooting, today is not in vain, Gu Wei's words are enough to write a news.
Yan Fei and Peng Damo on the stage were very moved when they heard Gu Wei's words, the corners of Shen Teng's mouth twitched slightly, the little brother still praised him after all, the word "king of comedy" is not something that ordinary people can use, even if they are optimistic about the future, they have to be sprayed by netizens.
After Gu Wei finished speaking, the reporters seemed to be satisfied, and ended the interactive session after casually asking a few questions from others.
The theater slowly darkened, and the movie was about to start.
After stepping down, Shen Teng was still quite nervous at this time.
This year is the year of his fame in the film and television industry, originally as a sketch actor, he has appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for several consecutive years, and he has already reached the top in that field.
Now that he has entered the completely unfamiliar film industry, he is a complete newcomer.
But fortunately, the first movie he starred in was a huge success, becoming the leading actor of a billion-dollar box office movie, and also entered the eyes of major film and television companies and directors.
The road ahead looks like smooth sailing.
However, the movie "One Thought of Heaven", starring him and Mary, which was released last month, almost knocked him back to his original form.
The box office was only 80 million, not to mention, and the score was only 4.9, and the audience rushed into the cinema for him, and finally returned disappointed.
In fact, "One Thought of Heaven" is the first movie starring Shen Teng and Mary, which was filmed earlier than "Charlotte's Troubles".
It's just that after filming, it hasn't been released for various reasons.
Later, after the release of "Charlotte's Troubles", it became popular, and the fame of Shen Teng and Mary skyrocketed, and they became popular fried chicken.
So the producer of "One Thought Heaven" decided to take advantage of the momentum of the two leading actors to release the movie, hoping to get a good result.
It turns out that movies are not good, and no matter how famous the actor is, it is useless.
The failure of [One Thought Heaven] made Shen Teng, whose career was on the rise, suffer a blow to the head.
So now this [The Richest Man in Xihong City] has become a turnaround work that he has great expectations for.
In order to make this movie, he didn't prepare the sketches of this year's Spring Festival Gala.
He hopes that this movie can continue the momentum of [Charlotte's Troubles] and let everyone know the true strength of his Shen Teng.
