Chapter 352 The Man Who Will Become the King of Comedy
After coming out of the airport, Gu Wei rushed to a Wanda Cinema in Beijing without stopping.
Today at noon, the premiere ceremony of [The Richest Man in Xihong City] is scheduled to be held here.
What a coincidence, the premiere ceremonies of two other movies [Macau Storm 3] and [Journey to the West: The Monkey King Three Fights the Bone Demon] are also today.
In fact, if we negotiate, we can adjust the time of the premiere. After all, the premiere is not a public screening. It mainly serves a publicity function. It doesn't matter if it is one day earlier or one day later.
However, none of the three companies, including [The Richest Man in Xihong City], have any intention of rescheduling. Competition is inevitable, so it is better to make it clear from the beginning.
The most popular one, "Mermaid", had its premiere ceremony early. At this time, Star Master is leading the crew on road shows across the country.
"Brother Teng, you've been working hard lately!"
After arriving at the scene, Gu Wei said hello to Shen Teng.
“It’s nothing. When [Charlotte Trouble] was released last year, we traveled to more places than we do now. We are all used to it.”
Shen Teng waved his hands carelessly, grinning and showing his fangs.
"The Spring Festival movie is released, and our opponent is Zhou Xingchi, the king of comedy. Are you afraid?"
Gu Wei raised his eyebrows and asked him with a smile.
"What's wrong with Zhou Xingchi?"
Shen Teng said loudly first.
"Of course Zhou Xingchi is awesome!"
Then his voice became softer and he felt a little submissive.
"But we are not afraid of him. Even if he is the king of comedy, we still don't know who will win without really touching him."
Shen Teng said it sonorously and forcefully, but he felt a bit fierce and evil at heart. .
“Haha~ Brother Teng, you are ambitious!
I have always felt that you are the next king of comedy, and it will not be a problem to surpass Zhou Xingchi in the box office in the future. "
Gu Wei patted Shen Teng on the arm and praised.
"That's not it. Otherwise, you are my brother. You understand me and know your brother Teng's potential! "
After listening to Gu Wei's words, Shen Teng had a triumphant expression, which well explained what it means to be successful as a villain.
"When the reporter interviews the premiere later , I must be so boastful!
What we focus on is the same appearance and appearance. "
Gu Wei added another sentence.
"No, brother, let's be humble in front of outsiders. You will praise me like this again when I really stand up in the future. Now I Afraid of not being able to bear it. "
Shen Teng, who was proud just now, said quickly.
"There is nothing you can't bear. Besides, it's me praising you, not you bragging.
In my heart, Brother Teng, you just look like a king, just tell the truth, don't care what others say, we can achieve results step by step. ”
What Gu Wei said made Shen Teng hesitate. He knew that Gu Wei told him this in advance to prepare him, and he would probably blast it in front of the media later. For publicity.
“Hey~ I don’t know whether it’s good or bad to have a brother like you?
You can say whatever you want, or you'll get scolded at worst! ”
Shen Teng sighed.
Gu Wei patted his shoulder.
"Brother Teng, you have to believe in me and yourself. I'm serious. If you are willing to come to my company, even if no one asks you to act in the future, I will praise you as the leading actor!"< br>
What he said made Shen Teng a little touched.
Ever since he met Gu Wei at the Spring Festival Gala last year, this big star brother has always been very optimistic about him. This feeling is like meeting a close friend in the mountains and rivers in the drama. It is rare in life!
Gu Wei and Shen Teng chatted for a few more words, and Zhang Tianai came over.
Upon seeing this, Shen Teng winked with Gu Wei and walked away with a smile.
"Gu Wei, you are here~"
Zhang Tianai was very surprised by Gu Wei's appearance.
She knew that Gu Wei was filming on the set recently and should be very busy every day. She did not expect that he would be able to attend the premiere of [The Richest Man in Xihong City].
“Well, I came here right after the plane landed in the morning, and I will go to CCTV for rehearsal after the premiere.
Are you getting used to running road shows with the crew? ”
Zhang Tianai wore a fashionable white women’s suit today, and a short skirt of the same color on the lower body, revealing a pair of straight and slender legs. Her makeup was regular, giving people the feeling of a strong professional woman. .
“It’s similar to when I was promoting [Xiu Chun Knife 2], except that I am the heroine in this movie, and I get interviewed more often at each press conference. "
She said happily.
No matter how popular her "Ding Baiying" is in [Xiu Chun Dao 2], there is a gap between the female supporting role and the female protagonist after all.
"[The Richest Man in Xihong City] will definitely be a big hit. You will be even more famous after it is released, and the heroine will be the heroine in every drama of yours from now on!"
"Yeah!" Zhang Tianai smiled. , she has always believed in Gu Wei's words.
Although movies are very uncertain, who can accurately predict whether a movie will be a hit or not is highly unlikely to be reliable, but if Gu Wei said, that picture Tianai must believe it.
Because from the moment they met to the present, everything Gu Wei said finally became reality.
He said that the movie would be successful and he could become a big star, so Zhang Tianai absolutely believed in him.
Not long after, the media were all here, the audience was full, and the premiere was about to begin.
Today’s premiere of [The Richest Man in Xihong City] did not invite any stars to support the show. There were only the film’s creators. There were quite a few reporters, and the audience was also carefully selected, including film critics and Weibo celebrities. V invited a lot.
The premiere began. After the traditional process, it quickly entered a question-and-answer session. Due to the presence of Gu Wei, although he was only a nominal producer, he still attracted the attention of the media.
After the director and Shen Teng were asked two questions, the microphone quickly came to Gu Wei's hands.
"Thank you all for coming to the premiere of [The Richest Man in Xihong City] today. This is not the first time I have been a producer.
My main job is an actor, and I am once again a producer. Standing on the stage as a human being, I have a lot to say to everyone in my heart.
You may not know that I am the real sponsor of the movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City". br>As early as the end of 2014, I came across an old foreign movie [Brewster’s Millionaire] by chance.
I was attracted by the story in the movie and thought to myself. It would be very exciting if it could be adapted into a domestic film, so I contacted [Universal Pictures] without hesitation to buy the rights to adapt the old film
But I am not good at comedy. If I want to film the Chinese version of "Brewster's Millionaire", I still need comedy professionals.
At this moment, the two directors Yan Fei, Peng Damo and Shen Teng came into my sight.
The Spring Festival Gala skit they collaborated on is one of my favorites all the time.
It’s just that they had no experience in making movies before, so I was hesitant at the time.
Later, I tried to contact the two directors and found out that they had already completed filming a movie at that time, which is the one that everyone knows, "The Sorrow of Charlotte", so I became more interested in them. Have confidence. ”
As he said this, Gu Wei turned around and looked at Yan Fei, Peng Damo and Shen Teng.
“Then I mentioned the movie to them, and they hit it off immediately. With everyone’s joint efforts, we adapted the script, prepared the crew, and filmed the movie in one go.
Final achievement
I am very proud of this movie that everyone is watching now.
The two directors are geniuses in the world of comedy film directors. , Shen Teng is another man who I hope will become the "King of Comedy". The movies they collaborate with are absolutely wonderful in my opinion
I hope every audience present can like this movie, and I hope more people can see this good movie!
Thank you everyone! "
Gu Wei said a lot and had a lot of information.
The reporters in the audience all looked excited and kept taking pictures with their cameras. Today was not in vain. Gu Wei A random selection of words is enough to write a news article
On the stage, Yan Fei and Peng Damo were very moved after hearing Gu Wei's words. The corners of Shen Teng's mouth twitched slightly, but the little brother finally praised them. He said that the term "King of Comedy" is not something that ordinary people can use. Even if they say they are optimistic about the future, they will inevitably be criticized by netizens
After Gu Wei finished speaking, the reporters seemed to be satisfied. They asked other people a few questions and ended the interactive session.
The theater slowly darkens and the movie is about to start.
After stepping down, Shen Teng was still quite nervous at this time.
This year is the year when he became famous in the film and television industry. As a sketch actor, he has appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for several consecutive years, and he has reached the top in that field.
Now that he has entered a completely unfamiliar film industry, he is a complete newcomer.
Fortunately, the first movie he starred in was a huge success, and he became the leading actor in a movie with a box office of over 1 billion. At the same time, he also entered the attention of major film and television companies and directors.
The road ahead looks to be smooth sailing.
However, the movie "One Thought of Heaven" starring him and Mary, which was released last month, almost brought him back to his original form.
The box office was only 80 million, and the rating was only 4.9. The audience rushed him into the cinema, and finally left disappointed.
In fact, "One Thought in Heaven" was the first movie starring Shen Teng and Mary, and it was filmed earlier than "Charlotte".
It was just that after filming was completed, it was never released due to various reasons.
Later, "Charlotte's Troubles" became a hit after its release. Shen Teng and Mary's fame soared and they became popular.
So the producer of [One Thought in Heaven] decided to use the momentum of the two leading actors to release the movie, hoping to get good results.
It turns out that if the movie is not good, it will be useless no matter how famous the actors are.
The failure of [One Thought Paradise] dealt a blow to Shen Teng, whose career was on the rise.
So now this film [The Richest Man in Xihong City] has become a turnaround for which he has great expectations.
In order to make this movie, he didn’t prepare any sketches for this year’s Spring Festival Gala.
He hopes that this movie can continue the momentum of "Charlotte's Trouble" and let everyone know the true strength of his Shen Teng.
