On the 15th, Zhang Yuanjun returned to the Shanghai Film Festival from Beijing.

In the past few days of his absence, the film festival has been quite lively.

On the second day of the opening ceremony, a forum on the theme of "Film and Capital: Love and Not Kill" was held.

The organizer also didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, so they invited Ye Ning and Zeng Maojun over.

Ye Ning jumped from Wanda to Huayi at the beginning of the year, and the industry was shocked.

Former colleagues are now on the same stage, and the participating media thought that they would see the two pinching up, but there was nothing for the two of them in the whole forum.

On the same day, Sparkle Roll Film and Television held a press conference and released Cheng Long's next 4 new action films!

"Jedi Escape", "Railway Flying Tiger", "Kung Fu Yoga" and "Ordinary People".

I have to say that Cheng Long is really copper-skinned and energetic.

Huang Bo also announced his "HB+U" new director assistance plan at the film festival, saying that he would select 10 genre films created by potential young directors, and Huang Bo's company would support them.

There are also countless blockbuster films that have been developed at the Shanghai Film Festival, announced the finalization, and attracted investment.

Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying couple, Xie Chen, president of Digital Domain, a major domestic special effects town, Huang Zitao, Tong Dawei, Lu Chuan and others all expressed their great expectations for "Invisible Guest".

The Shanghai Film Festival has become the most important social venue for Chinese films.

The Golden Rooster Award is hard to watch and learn, even if the award has no gold content, relying on such a large market in the mainland, the film festival can still have a good time.

In fact, the Shanghai Film Festival allows competition films not to be screened to the public, but the crew still wants some audiences to see the film in advance and expects them to be used as tap water to promote the film.

"The Invisible Guest" held a press conference today, and the film will have its world premiere after the press conference.

In order to protect the film's official release results and the suspenseful characteristics of the film, "The Invisible Guest" will only be screened once on the day of the press conference.

6 percent of the audience who participated in the premiere were media, and only 4 percent of the movie tickets were left for ordinary fans, and some of them were given to fan viewing groups.

"I know you can't wait. Now, let us welcome the creators of "The Invisible Guest" with warm applause, they are the vice president of Wanda Film and Television, Mr. Zeng Maojun, the producer of "The Invisible Guest", the professor of the Film Academy, the director of the film, and the famous director Cao Baoping. ”

And the media participating in the premiere viewing are also required to sign a confidentiality agreement, which allows them to write film reviews and reports after the screening, but cannot spoil the plot of the film.

Xie Nan also opened with a question: "Everyone sees that the theme of our premiere on the big screen is called the truth is revealed." This truth is revealed with two meanings, one is that after so long, "The Invisible Guest" is finally going to meet the audience, and the other is that the suspense case in "The Invisible Guest" is about to reveal the truth for the first time. ”

"Audience, media friends, good afternoon, welcome to the world premiere of "The Invisible Guest", I am Xie Nan, the host of tonight's premiere, welcome everyone."

The host of the press conference is Xie Nan.

The theme of the press conference echoes the finalized trailer, telling the truth.

Let's start with two behind-the-scenes heroes.

The producer of "The Invisible Guest" is, of course, La Dong of China Film, but Ladong generally sits in the audience as a guest and does not participate in the premiere as the main creator.

Zeng Maojun and Cao Baoping stood on the stage and introduced themselves in turn.

Xie Nandao: "I have always had a big question I want to ask Mr. Zeng and Mr. Cao, and I believe that this question is also curious to many audiences. It's this starring lineup, how did you come up with it? Many viewers on the Internet say that the starring lineup of our "Invisible Guest" is a 'lifetime series'. Mr. Zeng, Mr. Cao, do you know what the 'Lifetime Series' is? ”

Zeng Maojun and Cao Baoping both said they didn't know what the word meant, and Xie Nan explained to them: "The 'Lifetime Series' refers to those things that are particularly difficult to see, and may only be seen once or twice in a lifetime, and are particularly precious. The audience said that the starring lineup of our "Invisible Guest" is too luxurious, and it may only be seen once in a lifetime. ”

Zeng Maojun said first: "Everyone is polite, polite." ”

Xie Nan asked again: "Then how did our preparatory team get this luxurious lineup?" ”

Zeng Maojun motioned to Cao Baoping and said that after all, as a producer, he was responsible for the casting pass.

Cao Baoping said: "In fact, it is not as difficult as everyone thinks. At the beginning of this play, Xin Yukun, Yuan Jun and I were doing it, and when discussing the role, Yuan Jun played Laipi, saying that he wanted Gong Li, and others didn't want it. ”

Zhang Yuanjun sat under the stage and laughed, and Gong Li beside him smiled: "You really said that at that time? ”

Zhang Yuanjun nodded in acknowledgement.

Cao Baoping's words caused the audience to laugh, and Zhang Yuanjun would still play Laipi.

Cao Baoping continued: "I said that Gong Li is difficult to invite, and people are busy, so there may not be a schedule, but I still sent a notebook to Gong Li." At first, I didn't report my expectations, but after about a week, Gong Li said that this book was good, and asked us to meet and talk. The two of us rushed to Wuxi with Yuanjun and chatted for two hours before the matter was settled. Ni Ni, I told her, this play has Zhang Yuanjun and Gong Li, you can't come, I think this role is quite suitable for you, she didn't ask what the play was, and she came to the capital to sign the contract the next day, and Mr. Li Jianyi also negotiated it like this, I said I will let you play Gong Li's husband, and you husband and wife will join forces to fight against Zhang Yuanjun. Mr. Li Jianyi also agreed. ”

"It's not as hard as everyone thinks."

Cao Baoping said this is simple, but this simple premise is that your script can impress Zhang Yuanjun and Gong Li at the same time. This alone can't be done by 90% of the crews on the market.

Xie Nan pretended to whisper and whispered to everyone present: "Then their salary must be very expensive." ”

Zeng Maojun said with a smile: "That's not true, they are all very good actors, and after reading the script, they know that we are a small cost, so everyone talks about the salary and talks about it more pleasantly." ”

Xie Nan asked Zeng Maojun again: "This is the third time that Wanda and our Yuanjun have cooperated." ”

"Yes, for the third time."

"So why can we work together so many times in just a few years?"

Zeng Maojun said: "I think the creative concepts of our two sides are very compatible, and in the past few years, everyone has trusted each other, so this cooperation is also a matter of course." ”

In fact, Wanda paid a lot more money than glamorous, and also included the release of "Heart Labyrinth".

Of course, there is definitely an affection for cooperation.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Zeng and Mr. Cao, please sit down and rest." After Xie Nan asked the question, he asked the two of them to step down.

"Okay, I know what you're waiting for. The heroes behind the scenes are unveiled, and the next thing is - here are the directors and actors of "The Invisible Guest". ”

Xin Yukun, Gong Li, Zhang Yuanjun, Ni Ni, and Li Jianyi took the stage at one time.

Caused a cry from the audience. (End of chapter)
