Entertainment: The Strongest Actor
Chapter 124
Faced with so many questions from reporters, Qin Zhong picked up the microphone and talked freely.
He said calmly: "Because, "Journey to the West" is a well-known classic story in my country. Every one of us has seen Journey to the West, TV series, or cartoons since we were young! We are all very familiar with the various sections in it. "
The reporters below nodded one after another, expressing agreement with what Qin Zhong said.
"In foreign countries, they often make their fairy tales or popular novels into movies, such as "The Lord of the Rings" or "Harry Potter." These adaptations are also very successful, and they have also made movies on the screen. The huge box office revenue has won applause from the audience! I believe that "Journey to the West" is absolutely as exciting as those movies."
"Qin Zhong, your movie "Infernal Affairs" is very good-looking and very influential! Fans are very curious. They want to ask what the theme of this movie is?"
Qin Zhong and Liu Zhengwei looked at each other, and then said, "This is a romantic movie!"
Suddenly, the audience was quiet.
This is the first time that Qin Zhong has told the people outside that "Journey to the West" is a romance movie!
Sure enough, it attracted the attention of all reporters.
"Romance movie?" All the reporters in 2008 were full of doubts.
In their eyes, Journey to the West is a story of four monks going to the west to learn the scriptures, and there is no love at all in the middle!
Even if there is, it is just a taste. Such as Zhu Bajie and Chang'e!
Suddenly, many people felt that "A Journey to the West" was very superficial, which reduced the force of the original "Journey to the West". Instead of slapping monsters and going to make romance movies, it is destined to be on the street.
Even if a movie star like Qin Zhong joins, it can't change the fact that "Western Journey" will hit the street!
There was a brief silence.
The reporters present felt that this time, "A Journey to the West" would definitely hit the streets.
Some reporters began to ask questions about Liu Zhengwei.
"Director Liu, how much is your investment this time?"
Liu Zhengwei said with a smile: "The total investment has reached 300 million yuan!"
"In fact, we only planned to invest 150 million yuan at the beginning, but later on, we found that there were more and more story lines, and one movie could not be finished at all, so we had to change it to the upper and lower two!"
"So, the total investment for the two films is 300 million!"
Although the investment in the two films is 300 million, it is still a very high-level investment. Under normal circumstances, only some films co-produced by Hollywood and ZhongM will reach such a high box office!
For a while, those reporters became excited again.
Who would invest 300 million in a romance film?
Moreover, this movie is aimed at the domestic market, not as ambitious as "Infernal Affairs", going abroad and being released to countries in M country, South Asia and Japan.
"With such a large cost, what do you expect from the box office? Can the cost be recovered?" a reporter asked sharply.
Director Liu also felt a pressure in his heart.
But he still confidently said: "As long as the film is good, I am not afraid that the audience will not watch it!"
Liu Zhengwei's words were loud and loud.
The reporters all picked up the cameras one after another, and began to shoot "click!" and "click!"
There are mixed opinions on this film from the outside.
People who are watching this movie say that it will definitely be a good movie.
The combination of Zhou Xunxuan and Qin Zhong, as well as the addition of Liu Zhengwei, will definitely be a good movie.
But there are also many doubts.
"Qin Zhong, this is after becoming famous. I changed "Journey to the West" into a romantic movie. I heard it's still a comedy. I'm going to vomit. Isn't the previous "The Great Sage of Love" not enough?"
"The bad movie is undoubtedly! It has been confirmed. Friends, don't blame me for not reminding you!"
"Haha, I heard that they are quite confident, and they actually invested 300 million yuan. What kind of romance film needs to invest 300 million yuan? Wouldn't they all give Qin Zhong as a reward?"
Slowly, the reviews of "A Chinese Journey to the West" gradually declined.
The attitudes of the media can be imitated, but obviously they don't think "Western Journey" is so exciting.
Because there was a similar romance movie under the banner of Journey to the West before. "The Great Sage of Love" is also starring with the flow of Xiaosheng Xiaofeng and TVB's popular huadancai catching salt.
The investment was also huge at that time, but the later effect was shoddy, the story was a mess, and it was not worth watching at all.
Box office word-of-mouth hits both on the street.
From this point of view, it is not the addition of large investment and traffic that can have a high box office!
It depends on whether the audience can pay for it!
Those who are optimistic about "Journey to the West" are left with some die-hard fans of Zhou Xunxuan and Qin Zhong.
There were even voices on the Internet mocking "Journey to the West".
At this time, Wang Xiaotian, who was very depressed, suddenly laughed after seeing those doubts.
"Haha, when I drove me away, I knew that they would definitely not succeed!"
Later, Wang Xiaotian published an article on the Internet.
It described in detail some situations of the crew of "A Chinese Journey to the West".
"The actors inside are noisy, the plot is messy, there is no logic at all, so many people grab a small box. Tang Sanzang is old and ugly, probably to set off the role of the protagonist!"
Wang Xiaotian said sarcastically: "I am also an artist anyway, so I refused to be a supporting role in this movie. The artist's backbone cannot be lost, and the classics of China cannot be destroyed!"
Although Wang Xiaotian had a small reputation in the industry, few people knew him in front of the audience.
But since he published that article, his fans have gradually increased.
"Elder Wang really has a backbone!"
"The classics cannot be destroyed!"
...
Liu Zhengwei frowned. He did not expect that Wang Xiaotian would actually do such a shameless thing.
Qin Zhong sneered.
"It's just a clown!"
Subsequently. Qin Zhong released a song directly on the Internet.
And he left a message saying: "Wang Xiaotian, it was because your music was too bad at first, and the quality did not meet our requirements, so you didn't meet the conditions for cooperation!"
"Unexpectedly, an unsuccessful cooperation will actually become evidence for you to slander us. Whether your soundtrack is good or not, you will know if you compare it!"
Netizens clicked on the song curiously.
"life long love"!
Suddenly, countless people were moved by this song.
It's a song that I never get tired of listening to.
In just one day.
This song has topped the charts of major music apps.
People were surprised to find that the composer, lyrics, and original singer of this song were all by one person!
And that person is Qin Zhong! .
