Chapter three hundred and eighty seventh [people in the embarrassing way] press conference
[People on the Road] did not mean a secret start-up, but a very large and huge press conference, which invited more than 50 years of news media to participate in a huge press conference...
After Ye Ming won the Golden Horse Award, he once again made a trinity of works. This is quite newsworthy. Therefore, this time, reporters from more than 70 media came, even from Hong Kong City and Baodao.
Reporters also followed.
Many of them come uninvited. What is influence? This is called influence. Every move can get more media attention, which is admirable.
Yu Guo, the chief reporter of [Entertainment Morning News], was the first to stand up at the press conference and said: "Excuse me, Mr. Ye, this is your second trinity work, do you think this movie has exceeded the box office of [Crazy Stone]"
Do you have confidence?"
Ye Ming looked around at the reporters at the scene and found that everyone was waiting to see, hoping to get an accurate answer from Ye Ming. At that moment, Ye Ming coughed and said: "It's hard to say whether this will be surpassed or not.
For a director, every movie is like his child. As a father, do you prefer the eldest son or the second child? The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. I can do it.
It means trying your best to do your best. As for transcending or not, it depends on whether the audience likes it or not."
This and Tai Chi's answer obviously made the reporters at the scene depressed for a while. This is no different from not answering. [Southern Weekend] reporter Lao Bai is also an acquaintance, but he is an enemy. Usually he stands up
When asking questions, they all say that they will go against Ye Ming, which definitely means that they will not make Ye Ming feel comfortable.
It was indeed the same this time. Lao Bai stood up and said: "Director Ye, this Lunar New Year film can be said to be full of wars. I heard that there will be at least six Lunar New Year films participating in the competition, and the most powerful among them should be director Feng Xiaogang.
It’s [endless], I don’t know how the director views his work among these six movies, and whether he can be in the first position.”
Lao Bai's words are a bit of a provocation. If Ye Ming said that he was the first to answer, he was deliberately suppressing Feng Xiaogang. If he didn't say that he was the first, then in this case
On one thing, but also on my own press conference, it was a big blow to me. Chinese people pay attention to getting off to a good start, and they definitely did not say that they were not the first.
At this time, Lao Bai looked at Ye Ming triumphantly. He knew that it was difficult to answer such a question. Even if Ye Ming was very cunning, he would never say that he could answer such a question casually.
Ye Ming seemed to say that he did not regard such a thing as a problem at all, but said with a smile: "Who did you hear this news from? The last time I had a meeting at the General Administration, the Lunar New Year movies were not six
Home, but eight films, eight films for the Lunar New Year. However, among them, the best one is not my "Unfortunately", nor "Endless" directed by Feng Xiaogang."
When Lao Bai heard this answer, he was a little surprised. When did Ye Ming become so humble about this matter: "Director Ye, you are too polite. You are also the one who set the box office record for domestic movies. Director Feng Xiaogang made another New Year's film."
First person, at this time, who else can make better movies than you? Let me see. There are not many directors like this in China, right?"
Although the relationship between Lao Bai and Ye Ming is not very good, he still has to admit such a thing when it comes to such an issue, that is to say, at this time, Feng Xiaogang and Ye Ming
In terms of movies, he is ahead of most directors.
Ye Ming said very modestly: "There are a lot of film talents in China, and there are many better directors than the two of us. The movie I'm talking about that is better than the two of us is [Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin] directed by Chen Kaige. Director Chen
After re-editing, it has been decided that the film will compete in the Lunar New Year season again."
Movies that have been screened are actually said to be re-screened, which seems to have never happened before. If Chen Kaige, a major international director, can firmly surpass Ye Ming and Feng Xiaogang with his qualifications, this is absolutely nothing.
Question, but if this [Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin] can actually be re-released, it seems, it seems, this is a bit impossible.
The reporter from [Star Entertainment] is a young beauty. She is as young as a recent college graduate. She seems to be not very familiar with this industry. After getting permission, she stood up curiously and said: "Director, what did you say just now?"
Shengnuo [Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin] will be released again during the Lunar New Year. How is this possible? I have watched [Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin]. It was a waste of my thirty-five dollars. A super blockbuster turned into a bad movie.
, the box office in the mainland was only over 2 million, which is simply unimaginable. This is a film that was rated as one of the top ten worst films in the United States in 1998. Even if it had not had this title, it would have been
How can a movie that has been released be re-released?"
Ye Ming said with a smile: "Well, nothing is impossible. Directors who have won international awards, how can they casually deny their works? Since Director Chen Kaige said that he has won international awards, everyone is in the circle.
The people inside should be very clear about some things, and the General Administration has already approved it. Moreover, this is a re-edit by director Chen Kaige, not an old version of the movie, so I think there must be something new for everyone.
.”
Although Ye Ming said that he and Chen Kaige had not dealt with each other very well, under such circumstances, he would never say that he directly criticized Chen Kaige in public. Reporters quickly
I wrote down what Ye Ming said, and prepared to go back and carefully dig out the inside story of a sudden good thing. This is quite a news item.
Then a reporter from [Next Weekly] stood up and said: "Mr. Ye, I heard that you are interested in developing in Hong Kong City. I don't know if it is just a rumor."
Ye Ming pondered for a moment. He wanted to develop in Hong Kong City, but few people knew about it. However, this was also an inevitable trend. The film environment in Hong Kong City was indeed declining, but at least the overall level was
They are one step ahead of those from the Mainland, which is why actors and stars in Hong Kong look down on their counterparts in the Mainland. If it weren't for the fact that actors from the Mainland could make a comeback, the actors in Hong Kong would be even more rampant.
Going to Hong Kong City will obviously help you to hone your abilities, but Ye Ming knows that there are still some things that he has not done in the mainland, so he must do a good job in this base camp so that he can go out with peace of mind.
Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Of course I have considered this. In fact, I have had a very pleasant cooperation with the entertainment industry in Hong Kong City. I studied in Hong Kong City when I debuted, and I worked with Guo Tianwang
, Zheng Yijian and others have also collaborated in movies, so my cooperation with Hong Kong City has actually never been interrupted. As long as there is a suitable opportunity, I think there will be further cooperation. Colleagues from Hong Kong City come to the mainland, and colleagues from the mainland
This is a trend to go to Hong Kong City. Our brilliant film and television also has its own company in Hong Kong City, which means that I attach great importance to it. If there is any action, I will be the first to notify everyone.
of."
Ye Ming didn't say he wouldn't go, nor did he say he would go right away, which gave people room to think about it.
At this time, a reporter from a mainland entertainment magazine [Celebrity Frontier] raised a question that readers were very concerned about: "Director Ye, in addition to your starring role, do you plan to target the remaining actors in this movie?"
Should the outside world choose some of them, or should we say all of them are actors from your company?" Ye Ming pondered for a moment before saying: "Most of the actors are actors from our company, but there are also outstanding actors recommended by the Beijing Film Studio.
Actress Miss Suman, I think we will have a pleasant cooperation."
In fact, Huihuang Film and Television itself can assume all these roles in the movie, but since it is affiliated to the Beijing Film Studio after all, it would be normal for the film studio to recommend one or two people at this time.
Yes. This Suman is not an ordinary person. She is the niece of a deputy director of a film studio, and she is also a very difficult boss. However, Ye Ming understands very well that when he plays in this circle, he should sometimes abide by the rules.
The rules still have to be followed. Otherwise, you will definitely be isolated. The reporter did not give up, but continued to ask: "So, Miss Suman should be the heroine of this movie?"
Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "What kind of role an actor should have is determined by the director through comprehensive consideration. Therefore, what role Miss Suman should play depends on the plot.
It’s needed. However, we still have to ask everyone to go to the cinema to support this movie to know the specific role.”
In fact, he has seen Suman's acting skills. He is less than five hundred and has some acting skills, but it is absolutely impossible for him to play the leading role.
But she has connections, so it’s hard for Ye Ming to turn her down. All she needs to do is arrange a suitable small role for her.
And Ye Ming can also see that this [Celebrity Frontier] reporter should have been arranged by Suman.
Regarding Suman's role, she herself has actually asked her many times, but Ye Ming just didn't let go. She probably asked this reporter to inquire about the situation. But how could Ye Ming be fooled so easily? (Unfinished)
