As one of the most watched movies this year, "Now You See Me" has attracted the attention of most media and audiences since its inception.
It can be said that apart from "Red Cliff", "Now Now" has attracted the attention of most people.
Brother Chen Kai's character was half destroyed by "The Promise", and now the attention of "Mei Lanfang" is far less than before.
"If You Are the One" that Feng Xiaogang is preparing can be compared with "Now You See Me", but it has just started filming.
Moreover, it is said that he will return to his old field of work and make a comedy film, and Ge You will star in it. It is probably a typical Feng comedy.
It's not big news that Feng Xiaogang is filming a comedy. It would be a less popular film like "Assembly" to create more topics.
As early as half a month ago, Tang An had someone cut out some of the behind-the-scenes footage and scenes, and the first clip was uploaded a few days ago.
The first one is Deng Kai's magic trick, in which he bends a steel spoon with his mind, deliberately being exposed but taking away other people's wallets and watches.

In the Xinlang News and Entertainment Department, several editors were exchanging various recent gossips, scandals and the like.
From the Yanzhao Gate to the Shrew Gate, we also talked about how Yang Qianhua lost her footing while singing at an awards ceremony and fell into the light trough beside the stage, which was more than one meter deep. She fell into it while walking.
Tong Dawei also announced the wedding date and will get married in the middle of the month.
A host of Yangma News Network threw a grand birthday party. He got drunk that night and made vulgar remarks. It caused an uproar on the Internet.
Netizens have questioned why a CCTV anchor who usually keeps a low profile would be so extravagant and ostentatious.
From entertainment news, we talked about several movies that will be released recently.
"The premiere of "Three Kingdoms: The Dragon Disarms" is going to premiere tonight. Are you ready for the script?"
"The editor-in-chief asked me to go to "Children of Huangshi" and conduct an exclusive interview with Fa Ge."
"I'm surprised. "Beauty of the Country" only took over 30 million at the box office. Aren't Lai Ming + Donnie Yen just the match for the combination of Andy Lau + Hong Jinbao? I guess it won't be much better."
"Liu Dehua's appeal is no longer good, and the film "Ink Attack" two years ago also failed."
"I finally understand that blockbusters without big directors will suffer losses these days. Look at how many movies besides those big directors have high box office."
"It depends. You can watch the movie tonight, but judging from the promotional videos and posters, I really can't tell that this is a Three Kingdoms-themed movie."
"Not necessarily. "Red Cliff" is now popular before it is released. The theme of the Three Kingdoms is still very popular. Maybe it can take advantage of the east wind."
As he talked, he talked about Tang An again.
"Tell me, how good is Tang An's movie? The video shows just a small trick. If all magic tricks are like this, it would be very disappointing to me."
"It's okay. That part was quite funny. He deliberately exposed his flaws to steal someone's wallet. I didn't even see how he stole it."
"But if it's all like this, it's really a bit disappointing. It's the same in those magic shows."
"I can only hope for the magic trick of robbing banks, just don't do it in a nondescript way."
Everyone was talking about their own opinions, and suddenly someone shouted.
"Look, there's another video uploaded online."
The editor said and clicked on the video, and everyone else gathered around.
It was really a piece of magic, it was the hypnotic magic performed by Liu Ye.
After reading it, everyone was a little disappointed, as there was still nothing new.
At this time, the editor-in-chief suddenly came out and called several editors to come to the office.
"Get ready, write two articles that belittle "Now You See Me", and Jiang Langcai will write everything he can."
Several editors were inexplicable, but they didn't say anything. It was probably the editor-in-chief who took the money again.
They are the best at writing, praising and scolding people. They typed out an article for more than an hour, and then found an intern to proofread it to see if there were any typos or incorrect sentences. They then reviewed it with the editor before sending it up.
Almost at the same time, a considerable part of the domestic online media was disapproving of "Now You See Me", but the print media was not so quick.
The sudden bad-mouthing left the public confused as to why the film suddenly seemed to be a bad movie after just two trailers, even though the audience also felt that these two trailers were like magic.
"This time Tang An probably made it into a comedy. Although the two magic tricks are just like that, they look quite different."
"Emmmm, we promised to make a magic crime movie, but it turned into a comedy."
"That's right. Isn't it a crime to steal things and threaten and extort? (Manual funny)"
"I understand, I understand how Tang An is going to rob the bank. He must have asked Liu Ye to hypnotize the bank's people, and then that person named Deng Kai will steal the keys. Isn't Deng Chao a master of blindness? He is responsible for hiding the money.
He got out of the bank unconsciously, and in the end Tang Yan happened to be a master of escape techniques, so he probably planned an escape route to avoid the police!"
"Damn it, brother, this is so imaginative!"
"666666, it would be a pity if the boss doesn't become a screenwriter!"
"I'm just a salted fish who can shout 666!"
"Big brother, go ahead and write a novel, I will definitely subscribe!"
"If that's the case, what's the point? Why don't you just shoot it with an AK? At least it's fun to watch!"
These sounds had nothing to do with Tang An, and he didn't have time to pay attention to them. It was enough to take a glance at them occasionally and know what the situation was.
I arrived in Huayi in the morning. I first met with Wang Zhongjun and talked about the early publicity, and then went to Chen Guofan's office.
Just a few words of greeting and get straight to the point.
"Mr. Chen, are the venues for filming those two magic shows ready?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Tang, the Workers' Stadium is being renovated in order to take on part of the Olympic Games. The venue has been completely renovated, and it looks like a brand new stadium. We have also hired a company to redecorate the venue, including building a brand new stadium.
The stage, as well as the surrounding lights, are estimated to be completed in 20 days at most."
As he spoke, Chen Guofu took out a few photos of the interior of the venue and handed them to Tang An.
Then he asked, "When can we start recruiting these more than 10,000 viewers?"
"Let's wait a little longer. We will start recruiting nationwide on the 10th. We should be able to recruit 10,000 people in 10 days." Tang An thought for a while and said.
"With Director Tang's appeal, the 10,000 places might be filled in two days." Chen Guofu laughed.
"It's hard to say, and there's no reward. Just two meals." Tang An smiled and shook his head.
If the summer vacation is almost here and there are so many students, how can so many people have time?
Unless it is postponed to May Day, but that is a bit too late.
If the filming doesn't go well and post-production is included, it may not be released until August.
I returned to my office, looked at what happened in Huayi during this period, and called Xiao Yang, the film's special effects director, the boss of the North and South Brothers Culture Company who was responsible for the film's special effects production, to inquire about the early stage special effects production.
This company is the predecessor of Tiangong Pictures, and it was also one of the four constituent parties of Tiangong Yicai, the top domestic special effects production company. It has quite good capabilities.
