Chapter six hundred and eighty seventh greasy middle-aged man(1/2)
The press conference ended harmoniously, and the crew moved to the banquet hall next door, had a meal, and the filming began in the afternoon.
There are also many people in the press conference. If there is no accident in Tang An's movies, it will definitely affect the entire summer season this year, and no one does not pay attention to them.
"Dong Tang has been the tenth movie before he knew it. Time flies so fast. I wish Dong Tang a big hit."
"Ten years and ten movies, the efficiency of Dong Tang is really ashamed."
"If you make two more movies, the personal box office of Mr. Tang will exceed 10 billion. It will be shocking to think about that day."
"It's all just the audience likes it. I don't know if the audience will buy it if it tries to comedy this time."
Tang An talked with them a cup and said with a smile.
Yu Dong shook his head and smiled, "Dong Tang is modest. No director in China knows the audience better than you."
Wang Changtian also echoed, "A "Detective Chinatown" written by Dong Tang can sell for one billion yuan, and this time it is probably going to break the record again."
Ordinary directors can easily be regarded as disgusted by changing genres, but for Tang An, who has already achieved great success in many different subjects, changing subjects is no big deal.
Although "Mysterious Superstar" is a comedy movie, the starring actors are basically not famous for comedy, but Qin Hairu and Fu Dalong are more like actors.
Jiang Xiaodi used to film idol dramas and romance dramas, but Lei Jiayin performed well in the comedy movie "The Golden Robbery".
But as Wang Changtian said, Tang An's script "Detective Chinatown" written by Tang An can be successful for a TV series director, not to mention that this time he directed it himself.
The international practice of commercial mutual blows lasted for a while, and they also wanted to learn the specific content of "Mysterious Superstar" from Tang An.
Feng Xiaogang came here at this press conference very rarely. As a former comedy professional, Tang An also came to film comedy this time, which made him a little curious.
Feng Xiaogang smiled and said, "Dong Tang made comedy movies, so those of us who made comedy movies may not have a guaranteed job."
He said that, but Feng Xiaogang did not feel much loss in his tone, but instead he felt a little reserved and complacent.
In the field of comedy, Feng Xiaogang has never given up. Even Xu Zheng and Zhou Xingchi's comedy films have surpassed him, and even Deng Chao's comedy films have higher box office than him.
He thought he had achieved great success in the field of comedy, and filming "Private Customization" was more important to help Huayi subsidize the losses of "1942".
Anyone who shoots has a box office of 600 million to 700 million, just like I’m hungry now, but I only have a bucket of instant noodles at home. The instant noodles are not nutritious and are not delicious.
For nutritional matching, you can go downstairs to buy eggs and some vegetables.
But I think it's troublesome. Anyway, instant noodles can fill your stomach, so why bother going downstairs and washing vegetables?
Just find some jokes to piece together, find some jokes, and make money by making a movie. So why bother with such trouble?
Feng Xiaogang is in this state now. He was the number one comedy player in China back then. He was no longer able to play with the rest of the things.
In addition, I have to prepare for the Spring Festival Gala. I can just mess around and make a lot of money anyway.
Tang An smiled and said, "Director Feng's words are serious. You are professional in comedy. I don't know what Director Feng wants to make the next movie. Are you still coming from the comedy film?"
"I won't shoot comedy for the time being, I'm going to shoot a story about the art troupe."
Feng Xiaogang shook his head and said with some reserve.
The type of new film Tang An wants to shoot is the type that Feng Xiaogang plays the rest!
"The story of the art troupe?"
Tang An knew it in his heart and asked with a smile, "I remember Director Feng had been in the art troupe before. Could it be that it was adapted based on his own experience?"
Hearing Tang An mention of this, a hint of melancholy flashed in Feng Xiaogang's eyes, he sighed slightly in his heart, and then his expression returned to normal.
"It's an original story, I just have an idea at the moment, and the script is still being created."
Tang Andao, "This is a novel subject, I believe the audience will be interested."
Feng Xiaogang is going to film "Youth", which can be regarded as his own vent.
This movie adapted from Yan Geling's same name has many shadows of Feng Xiaogang and Yan Geling.
It is said that Feng Xiaogang fell in love with a girl when he was in the art troupe. The girl's father was an old comrade in the drama troupe.
The old comrade found that his daughter's mental state was in a wrong state, so he started an investigation.
As a result, I discovered that Comrade Feng Xiaogang, the admirer behind me, made a solemn representation to Feng Xiaogang.
However, things did not develop according to the old comrade's ideas, and Feng Xiaogang's connection with that girl was still very close.
Later, the old comrade was so angry that he taught his daughter a lesson at home, but his daughter refused to obey. It is said that the old comrade even beat her hard.
This incident touched Feng Xiaogang very much. Later, he said that if he hadn't been stopped by his comrades at that time, he would have gone to their house.
However, it is true that the girl "will rather die than surrender", but the question is who he would rather die than surrender.
Later, the girl told Feng Xiaogang that she actually liked a young brother who worked in civil aviation.
The reason why I kept in touch with Feng Xiaogang frequently was to use Feng Xiaogang to divert his father's attention.
As a result, Feng Xiaogang didn't know about it at that time, and the girl's father didn't know about it.
Later, Feng Xiaogang was found in contact with this old comrade and included it in the professional list in the name of streamlining and reorganizing.
Poor, it's a spare tire.
There is a little similarity to the male protagonist of "Youth", and they were all unjustly fired. Perhaps Feng Xiaogang made his name clear many years later.
At the same time, I also criticized the children of the big courtyard because many people said that he was just holding the children of the big courtyard and holding the children of the big courtyard.
Although it is for himself, Feng Xiaogang is brave enough to not be criticized by so many film critics for his system.
But who told him to be famous? The unfamous genius will criticize him.
I talked to several bosses, but Tang An didn't talk about the specific situation of the movie.
As we chatted, the New Year holiday was over and the Spring Festival holiday was over.
"The Return of the Great Sage" is released in one month and has begun to promote it, and it is promoted on the scale of a blockbuster. That situation is second only to "The Great Trouble in the Heavenly Palace" among many movies during the Spring Festival.
But it hasn't really started yet. After about ten days, large-scale previews will be held all over the country. That's when it's all-round and crazy publicity.
However, such an animated film, with such high-standard publicity, still makes outsiders look at each other.
"Aomen Storm" released by Berner is preparing to make a big move during the Spring Festival, and he is still a little worried about the publicity situation of "The Return of the Great Sage".
Yu Dong asked tentatively, "Dr. Tang is very confident in "The Return of the Great Sage". With such a large specification, I am afraid I will compete with "The Great Trouble in the Heavenly Palace"?"
Tang An smiled and said, "After investing 100 million yuan, it can be considered a blockbuster. Blockbusters should have the scale of promotion and promotion of blockbusters, otherwise wouldn't that 100 million yuan be a hundred dollars?"
Wang Changtian also said, "It seems that the civil war between Journey to the West is coming this Spring Festival."
Originally, the Spring Festival had nothing to do with Wang Changtian, but the variety show "Where Are We Going, Dad?", which was broadcast in October, actually became popular in the ratings and it exploded since the first episode.
The ratings are firmly ranked first in the same period, with the highest even breaking five.
The phenomenon-level variety show was aired in October. In just over two months, all the guests became popular, and Weibo fans soared from hundreds of thousands to millions, truly becoming popular all over the country.
It is said that Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV has begun to prepare for "Dad is Back", Qinghai Satellite TV launched "Dad is Watching Me", Guizhou Satellite TV created "Dad, Please Answer", and CCTV's "Zhengda Variety Show" upgraded to "Baby is Come".
Taking advantage of this east wind, I might be able to look forward to the big movie "Where Are We Going, Dad?" released during the Spring Festival.
However, Tang An did not answer everyone's questions positively, and it was useless to say it. If "The Return of the Great Sage" targets one billion, no one would believe it.
There is indeed a market for animated movies, but domestic animated movies sell well only for more than 100 million yuan.
"Kung Fu Panda 2", which sets the box office record of mainland animation movies, only sold for more than 600 million yuan.
This is a billion, and others think you are bragging again.
After the lunch banquet, Tang An brought the crew to Huairou Film and Television Base. Some scenes of "Mysterious Superstar" were filmed in the capital, and the heroine was located in a county town in northern Hebei.
From a small county town to the capital, it is also a huge step, with some symbolic significance.
Putting the crew together, I said a few scenes.
This crew has been following Tang An for many years, and there has been almost no change in the main middle and senior management, so there is no need to say anything.
As for the actors, they all have a strong spirit without saying that they are all excited. Tang An’s movies dare not slacken.
Starting with the indoor scene, Lei Jiayin took Jiang Xiaodi to Zhang Yuqi's law firm for help.
Although it was the first scene, they were all professionals, and each part performed its own duties and was already busy. In half an hour, the photographer, lighting, set, and makeup were ready.
"Each department will check it out and shoot it after ten minutes."
Tang An shouted at the crew with a loudspeaker, regaining a little feeling.
He reached out to call Lei Jiayin, Jiang Xiaodi, and Nana, checked their outfits, and gave a few words of advice.
"Lei Jiayin, when you perform later, try to lean towards the greasy middle-aged man, especially the latter sentence "I'm still more hungry""
"Xiao Di, pay attention to your condition in this scene, relax, relax from the inside out, and keep a smile in your eyes."
"Nana, you should have obvious contempt in your eyes, the kind that is unconcealed."
The character at the front desk, which has only one scene, let Nana make a guest appearance, and this character needs a beauty.
Lei Jiayin, who had problems with his lifestyle, was full of disdain, but then he hooked up with him. The contrast between the front and the back was funny, and the feeling of changing to a big beauty was even more obvious.
If it were a middle-aged woman, how could a top music producer hook up?
It has been almost a month since they got the script, so they naturally have an in-depth understanding of the script and characters.
Ten minutes later, the actor was asked to walk around, Tang An stood up from the chair and looked around, everyone was waiting for Tang An to give orders.
