Chapter 909 1009. Movie Overlord
Nie Wei did not stay in the lounge for too long. Within five minutes after Song Qian and others came in, Nie Wei said goodbye, but before leaving, he asked Ma Dong to take good care of these girls.
Although Nie Wei only watched the girls for less than five minutes and then left, and did not agree to Ma Dong's request to supervise the recording, no one would think that Nie Wei was not paying attention to the girls.
On the contrary, in the eyes of others, this is a kind of special attention.
If Nie Wei can take some time out of his busy schedule to pay special attention to her, isn't this not important? And he also asked Ma Dong to take care of the girl twice in a row. Isn't this also a sign of attention?
As for the fact that he only stayed for five minutes to accompany and record these things, does he really think that Nie Wei is very free?
The girls came out of Ma Dong's lounge and continued to visit the remaining seniors. Along the way, they felt that the seniors were all very polite and friendly. Sometimes they even just introduced themselves, and the seniors just said He praised them vigorously and made them look like they would soon dominate the Chinese music scene.
After the girls visited them all and returned to the lounge for ten minutes, and then were informed that they were going to record the show, they suddenly found that the seniors were even more enthusiastic than before.
Although they don't hang around them like fans, the seniors who sit next to them will more or less take the initiative to give them some common sense guidance on recording the program, and will also tell them and will take the initiative to pass the message to them for a while. They perform as well as they can.
This kind of treatment really made Zhang Dianfei a little jealous.
Xu Jie saw all this, and she was very grateful to Nie Wei in her heart. She knew the reason for this change best, and it was entirely because of the few minutes when Nie Wei appeared.
Although Nie Wei simply introduced the girl group to Ma Dong and then left, this gave a signal to all artists that Nie Wei valued this group of girls.
When other artists know the news, they will naturally take extra care of these girls.
After all, most of these artists work for Nie Wei, and the big bosses like to admire the girl group, so it is perfectly normal for them to praise them a few times.
The key is that with today's incident, the entertainment industry is surrounded by ventilation walls. It is estimated that the girls' programs have not been recorded yet. The entire entertainment industry knows that Nie Wei appreciates this group of girls. .
With Nie Wei's status and energy in the industry, unless he meets an artist who is particularly unsociable, it is estimated that he will probably give Nie Wei some face, so even if he is not on the variety show of Fanxing Entertainment, he will go to other places to participate in those TV stations. program, girls will also receive preferential treatment.
Xu Jie's expectations at this moment all became reality one by one in the activities of the following days.
When I went to Shonan TV Station to record "Happy Camp", the program team not only arranged a separate lounge for this newly debuted girl group, but when recording the program, there were obviously several guests at the same time, but it was obvious that Teacher He and Sister Na takes more care of these girls and tries to give as many topics to these girls as possible while ensuring the quality of the program.
When participating in "Tian Tian Shang Shang" recorded on the same stage, the treatment was basically the same. Wang Han and Ou Xiaodi also took good care of these girls on the show.
Xu Jie knew whose face these people were looking for.
Nie Wei met the girl group by chance, so he paid attention to them, but it was impossible for him to focus on those girls.
In the following days, Nie Wei returned to the crew to continue filming domestic scenes, and at the same time, he was preparing for the overseas shooting schedule. This film will be shot in ten cities with their own characteristics in six countries. It is also one of the films Nie Wei has filmed in these years. , a movie that requires shooting over the farthest distance.
In addition to distance planning, time also needs planning.
For example, Nie Wei needs the maple leaves in Quebec, the rain in London, or the heavy snow in Madagascar. If there is no reasonable plan and he can shoot as he pleases, these scenery may not be completed in two years.
So Nie Wei also developed a habit of watching the weather forecasts of various countries while filming this movie. Even though he knew that it would take two or three months for the filming location to have the scenery he wanted, Nie Wei couldn't help but watch it. Pay attention when looking at the weather forecast.
Unknowingly, it was almost October, and the maple leaves in Quebec had begun to turn red. Nie Wei was also preparing to take the crew there to shoot, and before going abroad, Nie Wei gave everyone in the crew a day to relax. In addition to allowing them to have a good rest and get together with their families before going abroad, Nie Wei also had an event that day.
"Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Secret of the Dragon", which has been filmed for half a year, is finally going to be released, and the time is scheduled for October 1st. Before that, Huayi also invited many colleagues to hold a premiere in Kyoto.
As the original author of this film and Cheng Kun's good friend, Nie Wei deserves to be supported both publicly and privately.
The premiere is scheduled for September 24th, one week before the film's official release.
On that day, hundreds of film media from all over the country were invited to Kyoto to attend the premiere. All the media who received the invitation arrived at the scene on time. In addition, there were 50 members of the Stars Film Critics Circle, plus Cheng Kun. Two hundred lucky fans like Zhou Xun and other leading actors formed today's viewing lineup.
The stars were also shining, such as Zhou Xun's friends Liu Ye, Huang Jue, and Takeshi Kaneshiro, who all came to support, and Cheng Kun's friends Zhao Wei, Huang Xiaoming, Hu Jun, and Liao Fan also came to support.
In addition to Huayi's own artists, such as Fan Binbin, Li Binbin, Huang Bo, Dong Xuan, Jiang Xin, etc., the premiere was like a small award ceremony, which was definitely star-studded.
When Nie Wei arrived, the atmosphere on the scene reached a climax.
The reporters held up their microphones one by one, hoping that they would be named by Nie Wei and ask him questions.
Nie Wei looked at it and pointed at the reporter from Penguin.com.
"Hello, Nie Wei, I am a reporter from Penguin.com. I want to ask you if you have a prediction for the box office of this movie. Can you give us a rough number?"
"It's hard to say, but I think it will definitely exceed 100 million, right?" Nie Wei replied with a smile.
This sentence caused a chuckle at the scene.
With the development of Chinese films, breaking 100 million is no longer as unattainable as it was a few years ago, but this threshold is still difficult for most people. There are still a few movies that can break 100 million every year.
However, when Nie Wei said this goal, all reporters felt that Nie Wei was too "conservative".
For this "Mojin", breaking 100 million is not a 100% matter of course?
You should know that in the current market forecast data, at least one company estimates that the box office of this movie in the mainland can exceed 500 million. Nie Wei's answer of breaking 100 million is the same as saying nothing to reporters.
Everyone laughed and thought that Nie Wei is Nie Wei, still so cunning.
"Nie Wei, you should have seen the finished film of this movie. If the full score is 10, how many points can you give this movie?" Then Nie Wei pointed to a female reporter, who stood up and introduced herself according to the rules, and then asked directly.
"I have indeed seen the finished film of this movie. Overall, it is very well made. However, I think it is about 7 points. After all, this is the first time for this team to work together. There are always unsatisfactory aspects. I believe they will definitely have room for improvement in the future." Nie Wei answered this question very sincerely.
"Thank you." The female reporter sat down happily. The answer given by Nie Wei gave her a lot of content to write.
Then another bearded male reporter in his forties was named by Nie Wei. The question he asked was about the performance of the actors.
"They are all very good. I don't think I should evaluate this. The audience is the best judge, and I believe that the audience and I have the same opinion. After all, whether it is Cheng Kun or Zhou Xun, they are both rare good actors with both strength and image in China. This can be seen from their reputation among the public." Nie Wei said with a smile.
It was really difficult for him to answer this question. All of this naturally came from the competition of Cheng Kun and Zhou Xun. Both of them are well-known powerful actors in the circle.
Therefore, the reporter's question was a free point question in Nie Wei's eyes. No matter how exaggerated Nie Wei used to praise the two actors, the public would not think it was exaggerated, but rather it was reasonable.
After asking three questions, the host who was waiting nearby immediately came forward to lead Nie Wei to the cinema. Of course, the reporters were unwilling to let Nie Wei go, but with the security guards watching them, everyone was helpless and could only watch Nie Wei disappear in the interview area.
As soon as Nie Wei entered the screening room, he saw Wang Zhonglei chatting with someone at the door. When he saw Nie Wei coming, Wang Zhonglei directly apologized to the person he was chatting with, and then walked towards Nie Wei.
"I'm waiting for you." Wang Zhonglei smiled and put his arm around Nie Wei's shoulders, while walking downstairs.
"The box is ready. Mr. Han is waiting upstairs. I also brought a bottle of good red wine. Let's have a good drink later. By the way, do you want to wait for Cheng Kun and Zhou Xun to come? When we discussed the premiere together yesterday, they were still talking about you, afraid that you would stand them up."
"I'll have to punish them with a few drinks later. They actually questioned my character."
"Hahaha, then this may not be a punishment. Maybe it's a reward to them. The red wine I brought is a collector's edition."
Nie Wei did not wait for Cheng Kun in the screening room, but went to the box with Wang Zhonglei first. Anyway, when Cheng Kun and Zhou Xun arrived, they would ask someone to call them to the box.
Nie Wei and Wang Zhonglei came to the box, and only Han Shanping was there.
"Mr. Nie, Mr. Wang, you are finally here. The flowers I waited for are all withered." Han Shanping took the initiative to greet them when he saw the two enter the room, and even made a joke.
"Boss Han, how about we really get a deck of cards? Anyway, we'll be leaving the venue for a while. How many times should we play Landlord?" The cooperation over the past few years has made Wang Zhonglei very familiar with Han Shanping's speaking style, and he naturally answered.
To Nie Wei's surprise, Han Shanping really agreed.
Nie Wei had no objection to this, and played Landlord with the two big brothers. Of course, in order to take care of the two big brothers' face, Nie Wei did not play very seriously, and played cards quite casually.
When the third round was played, reporters began to enter the venue, but these reporters certainly could not have imagined that in the box above their heads, the three most powerful men in the Chinese film industry would actually play Landlord there.
Of course, the three of them seemed to be playing very casually and chatting very casually, but as long as they opened their mouths, there was no real nonsense.
Han Shanping, Wang Zhonglei and Nie Wei, these three people represent the three generations of the current Chinese film industry. How could they really just play an ordinary game together?
For example, Han Shanping, playing Landlord, brought the topic to the next sequel of "Ghost Blowing Light" in a few words. Although the first part has not been officially released, in Han Shanping's opinion, this series is 99% likely to be successful.
He has also seen the finished film, with gorgeous special effects, superb acting skills of the actors, and a wonderful plot. He has only watched a small part of this purely commercial film. With many years of experience in the film industry, he knows that this must be a very successful work, at least in terms of box office, it will definitely not disappoint him.
So he hopes to participate more in the next few films.
After all, he is not young anymore. If he can't move up one step, he will soon face the problem of retirement, so he must have more political achievements, and where this political achievement comes from is the most secure, Han Shanping has set his sights on the two partners in front of him.
At least from the beginning of cooperation till now, they have never let me down.
Han Shanping does not hide his thoughts, and Wang Zhonglei is willing to return the favor. At least so far, the power represented by Han Shanping is still the strongest in the Chinese film and television industry. This is not only the care of the cinemas in the open, but also related to many hidden interests.
Take the review as an example. Since cooperating with Huaying in recent years, Huayi's film review has been particularly loose, and even caused the jealousy of some film production companies. There have been complaints against Huayi, of course, all of which have come to nothing in the end.
And this convenience is brought by cooperation with Huaying.
So Wang Zhonglei is also happy to let Han Shanping's term of office be longer, which is also a very beneficial thing for Huayi. Even if more interests are given up for this, it is within an acceptable range.
Of course, the specific amount of concessions is also in the confrontation between the two in words, and it is estimated that it will take a while to tell the winner.
Nie Wei did not participate in the conversation between the two. These matters have always been handled by Wang Zhonglei. Nie Wei was only responsible for answering Han Shanping's questions when he wanted to know the follow-up content of the movie.
When the seats were almost full, Han Shanping and Wang Zhonglei had not reached a consensus. No wonder, this was a matter that would involve millions or even tens of millions of dollars. How could they reach an agreement in just a few words?
Just then, a knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the two. It turned out that Cheng Kun and Zhou Xun had already entered the screening room. When they knew that the three big guys were in the box, they immediately came up to visit.
However, when they walked into the box, they were surprised by the scene in the room. There were poker cards scattered on the table, Nie Wei was holding a bucket of popcorn, Han Shanping was eating melon seeds, and Wang Zhonglei was holding a half-eaten apple. Except for the bottle of expensive red wine, how could this place look like the place where the big guys gathered in their imagination?
When Zhou Xun saw this scene, his mind suddenly twitched. He happened to have a mobile phone in his hand, so he subconsciously raised it and took a photo of the three big guys.
Thanks to Fantasy Paradise and 0773 for their generous rewards.
