Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 339 The fight started!

At the Shanghai Film Festival, Qiu held three press conferences.

The film launch conference of "You Are the One" introduced the project and main creators to the outside world and announced that filming will start next month.

Autumn Film Investment Conference. Zhang Zhao announced Autumn Film's plan for cinema construction at the conference - the company's film investment department will be split off to form Autumn Cinema Management Company, with Yan Yu, former deputy general manager of China Film Star Cinema Line, as the company's general manager. The new company will move towards the goal of 5 screens in 200 years. Zhang Zhao also announced at the conference that the company will open 3 new flagship cinemas this year.

There is some exaggeration involved, but bragging at a press conference is allowed.

The new company Mubu Culture Conference. As the Internet has an increasingly significant impact on the film and television industry, Autumn Pictures has decided to set up a new company to explore the direction of Internet entertainment, with Chen Yingjie, former director of the Film and Television Center of SMG Media, as the general manager.

As filmmakers who came from the traditional system, Li Qiutang and Zhang Zhao have a love-hate relationship with the emerging Internet, and they don't quite understand it.

Li Qiutang is not opposed to Internet film and television. He is very curious about this new model, so he set up a new company to enter the Internet.

The crew of "The Invisible Guest"? Li Qiutang's play does not need a press conference.

There were three consecutive press conferences in the fall, but none of them stole the limelight from Guo Jingming alone.

Director Guo understands exactly what the media and the audience want.

Guo Jingming said in an interview: "I don't really care about winning awards, I care more about the box office. I make movies for the audience, not for awards."

He also admitted that he was extremely controlling on the set: "I just want the director to be the center. This is my novel, and I know best what my readers want."

"We have ten investors, and whoever I invite in comes in. I am in charge of all the graphic materials for the later stage of publicity and distribution. I choose the promotion nodes for trailers and tidbits, and I am responsible for the intervals when a stimulus point is needed. The whole project needs someone who understands everything. I can do artistic creation, commercial financing, and publicity and marketing. I can accurately target the audience myself. Coupled with the influence of Weibo, I can make every step very accurate."

"I am more of a businessman. I think about things from the perspective of post-production promotion more than other directors."

At least when it comes to promotion at the Shanghai Film Festival, traditional film companies really can't beat Guo Jingming.

"Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" was a huge hit and also caused heated discussions at the film festival.

Andy Lau joked that if the audience thought the film was not good, they could just blame Andy Lau for not knowing how to choose films.

He was also worried that Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains would affect the performance of his Blind Detective, so he quickly made amends: "I am the kind of person who overestimates my own vision and thinks that any film can be made good in my hands. ... I am definitely not talking about Blind Detective. I will do better next time. I am really sorry."

Look how much people are forced into it.

Looking at it now, "The Mystery Detective" seems to be just a filler among the rich second generation, and not many people criticize it.

On the other hand, after the release of Police Story 2013, Jing Tian made a mistake in an interview and said that she was "learning from Director Qiu Tang during this period."

The reporter just asked her what special preparations she had done to prepare for "Police Story 2013".

Maybe he was a little too proud of himself and blurted out the words.

Jing Tian's words were quickly caught by the reporters, who asked back: "As far as we know, Director Qiu Tang is shooting a new film. Do you mean learning from him?"

Jing Tian smiled and said, "I work as a handyman in Director Qiu Tang's crew, and he often gives me some pointers."

"So are you playing a role in director Qiu Tang's new film?"

"Stop asking. I can't say anything more. The director will scold me." Jing Tian begged for mercy from the reporters.

But Jing Tian’s revelations were enough.

"Shanghai Film Festival Breaking News! Jing Tian has been signing new contracts, and will collaborate with Long to film Li Qiutang's new film."

"Jing Tian's new film is exposed again! Jackie Chan + Li Qiutang are the guardians, and the mysterious background has aroused speculation again."

When reporting on Jing Tian, one cannot avoid speculation about her background.

No one from the crew of "The Invisible Guest" was at the Shanghai Film Festival - Huang Xiaoming had already returned to the crew in Chongqing.

The staff of Autumn Pictures did not respond to the information revealed by Jing Tian.

If they don’t respond, then it’s true? The reporters’ reports saved “The Invisible Guest” a lot of pre-publicity expenses.

After the filming of "The Invisible Guest" was announced to start in Chongqing, the crew will not stay in Chongqing for a long time, and plans to leave after 10-14 days of filming.

But on the first day of filming in Yu City, Yang Ying came again. She had to come. After the scenes in Yanjing were finished, Qin Lan joined the crew.

But Qin Lan was obviously not in good shape, not only in her acting but also in her personal spirit outside of the play.

She didn't talk to anyone except acting. The crew thought she was avoiding danger because of Yang Ying's presence, but later they found out that it was not the case.

During the breaks between filming, she would sit alone on a chair and smoke (Qin Lan knows how to smoke), one cigarette after another, still without saying a word.

"Cut!" Li Qiutang called a halt, "What's going on today? Why can't I take a picture?"

Qin Lan wiped her mouth and apologized to Li Qiutang: "Sorry, Director, can we do another take?"

But Li Qiutang said, "Take a half-hour break."

Qin Lan's condition was obviously very problematic, and cursing was of no use at this point.

Qin Lan sat back down and smoked silently.

Li Qiutang called Qin Lan's assistant aside and talked to her alone.

I can’t tell it to others, but I can tell it to Li Qiutang.

"broke up."

"Break up?" Li Qiutang asked in surprise, "Just because of my play?"

"Not entirely. The two of them had conflicts before. Lu Chuan wanted to get married, but she didn't. They had argued countless times about marriage. Then, for your play, Lu Chuan wanted her to withdraw, but she refused. They had another argument, and then started a cold war. Half a month ago, Sister Lan found out that he was flirting with a girl outside, and they had another big argument. And that's it.

"Lu Chuan came to Sister Lan's house two days ago to pack up and move out."

To reassure Li Qiutang, the assistant added, "It's not your fault, Director. Even without this drama, they would have split up. The two of you have too many differences in career and family. Lu Chuan wants to find a wife who will obey him in everything. You know Sister Lan. She's not that kind of person."

Li Qiutang nodded.

"Director, I'm sorry for delaying the crew's work." Assistant Qin Lan apologized.

"It's okay. Everyone has their own troubles. I understand."

Afterwards, Li Qiutang had to adjust the shooting plan to give Qin Lan enough time to rest and adjust.

Early the next morning, Li Qiutang's door was slammed.

"It's a death sentence."

When I opened the door, it was the assistant director.

"Director, something happened!"

"What happened?" Is there anything that doesn't happen on the set?

"Qin Lan had a fight with Xiao Ming's girlfriend."

"A fight broke out?!" Li Qiutang was shocked! He had never expected this.

Li Qiutang ran away: "Where is it?"
