Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 203 It's time to show real skills.

"October Siege?"

"National Day stalls."

"Good boy, you are targeting me."

Looking at what was written in the news, Feng Xiaogang was furious.

Originally about Chen Cheng.

He doesn't have too many bad opinions.

Although Feng Xiaogang didn't like Chen Cheng at the beginning.

But later on, as he discovered Chen Cheng's gradual rise, Feng Xiaogang began to admire him a little.

He felt that Chen Cheng was the same as himself.

We all start from the bottom and work our way up step by step.

I didn't think so.

This guy is actually staring at me.

It would be fine if they just took four films to compete with themselves during the Spring Festival.

I changed the file myself, and this guy also changed the file.

"Okay, I want to see how good your "October Siege" is."

first timing.

Feng Xiaogang took out his phone and said, "Mr. Wang, we can start promoting If You Are the One now."

"Director Feng, have you seen the news?"

"What news?"

"The one about Chen Cheng..."

"Who does he think he is? This time I'm going to beat him back to his original form."

With a bang, Feng Xiaogang hung up the phone angrily.

……

Huayi is very efficient.

The next day, Feng Xiaogang held a new film press conference with Ge Daye, Shu Qi, Fan Wei, Fang Zhongxin and other main actors.

As the founder of Feng's Humor.

Feng Xiaogang has already proven himself in the market before.

Especially her combination with Ge You, they were called a golden partnership by the media and were considered a guarantee of box office success.

"Director Feng, what kind of story is If You Are the One?"

"It's a story about finding a partner."

"Marriage seeking, which marriage seeking?"

"Of course it's not me, it's Uncle Ge."

"Ah, Mr. Ge is looking for a wife."

The press conference had just begun, and the media were already as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

In fact it is true.

Uncle Ge is looking for a wife. Let’s not even talk about watching the movie. Just the topic itself is extremely attractive.

soon.

The media turned the interview to Uncle Ge: "Uncle Ge, are you looking for a wife?"

"Yes."

"You are so old, and you are still looking for a wife?"

"You can't seek marriage at your age. Old people also need love, right?"

"Hahaha……"

Everyone laughed.

of course.

In fact, Uncle Ge is not very old now, he is only in his 40s, and can be considered middle-aged at most.

However, most of the roles played by Ge Da Ge are middle-aged or elderly, so many people naturally think that Ge Da Ge is old.

of course.

Looking for a marriage partner in your 40s is not young anymore, and this is also an interesting thing.

During the interviews with a number of media outlets, Ge Da Ge also came up with a series of golden sentences.

"Uncle Ge, what are your requirements for marriage?"

"First, female. Second, alive."

"Pfft..."

"Uncle Ge, you are already this old. If you meet a young girl, how are you going to impress her?"

"It's easy. Just marry me and I promise to make you feel like you've drunk honey every day."

"So how many times have you sought marriage?"

"Countless times."

"Did you make it?"

"No."

"Do you want to find someone to help?"

"Forget it. As for getting a wife and having children, I'd better be self-reliant and not accept any outside help."

"Pfft... Uncle Ge, we were talking about asking a friend to introduce you, what are you thinking?"

"You guys should tell me, how would I know what nonsense you media are thinking?"

"Uncle Ge, it's not us who want to mess up, it's you who want to mess up."

The press conference was bustling with activity.

At this time.

Feng Xiaogang also asked the female character Shu Qi to come out and perform a scene with Ge You.

"If your mother and I fall into the water together, who will you save first?"

Ok.

The problem of the century has emerged.

When such a topic appeared, all the media present were stunned.

"I'm going, how do I solve it?"

"Save your wife first."

"Beast."

"Then save mom first."

"Worse than a beast."

It can be said that this question has stumped countless people.

Countless people, and no one correct answer.

Some people say save your wife first.

My wife is younger and can go on with me.

But soon there was opposition.

You think this is your wife, what if she divorces you later?

So someone said to save mom first.

You can have many wives, but you only have one mother.

Oh well.

If you say this, you're going to be single.

and so.

This answer is absolutely unsolvable.

just.

This is an unsolvable answer, but Feng Xiaogang has solved it here.

"Don't ask such stupid questions."

Uncle Ge said, "If you and my mother fell into the water together, my mother would definitely save me first. My mother can swim, so you should just take care of yourself."

This answer caused all the media to boil.

"Absolutely."

"That's a perfect answer."

“This film is definitely a good one.”

The press conference for If You Are the One was very successful.

He not only won the media's favor.

Simultaneously.

Countless people are also very optimistic.

Especially with a series of jokes during the press conference, he attracted a lot of audiences at once.

Watching a movie is just for relaxation, isn't it?

Plus Feng Xiaogang’s previous reputation.

Basically, it can be said that except for the Night Banquet, all his other works have received unanimous praise.

Now, many media outlets believe that this "If You Are the One" can definitely set new records.

……

"Chen Cheng, the promotion for If You Are the One has already begun, so we have to start preparing as well."

Although the higher authorities gave "The Siege of October" a 3-point tax policy.

But Chen Kexin also has a lot of pressure.

What was in front of him was Feng Xiaogang's "If You Are the One".

Not to mention that Feng Xiaogang is not well-liked by many people in the circle.

But they are really strong.

Not just cows.

Feng Xiaogang had met Hong Kong filmmakers many times before, and the Hong Kong side was basically defeated every time.

The earliest competition was between "Assembly" and "The Warlords".

Although The Warlords did well at the box office, it ultimately lost to Assembly.

"OK."

Chen Cheng also nodded.

He was the co-director of the film "October Besieged City" and even directed it himself.

At this time, the name of the producer was added.

Chen Cheng also attached great importance to this.

After taking a few days off from school, Chen Cheng accompanied Chen Kexin to attend the press conference of "The Besieged City in October".

But a pity.

The effect is not particularly good.

Chen Kexin was a little conflicted.

As a producer, he is actually the person in charge.

did not expect.

The effect of this promotion was very average.

"Chen Cheng, how about we do it again?"

Chen Kexin proposed to Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng shook his head: "The results of the first few games were average, and the results will be the same if we do it again."

"Are we going to lose then?"

"Not necessarily."

Although the publicity effect is not good.

But Chen Cheng was relatively calm.

The two films are of different genres.

One is a comedy.

One is a mainstream film.

Everyone can understand comedy films.

It’s not that everyone can’t understand the main theme, but it’s not particularly easy to introduce it.

At least before watching this film, people didn't quite understand what the main theme of The Siege of the City in October was.

one left.

Feng Xiaogang's name is indeed well-known.

With the fame he has gained from so many films, Feng Xiaogang is currently in his golden creative period.

His mentality of being unable to tolerate anyone is actually in line with the general public.

This is also more acceptable to the public.

"Then what do we do now?"

"Wait."

“Waiting for the release?”

"Correct."

That's how it is sometimes.

It’s not the cards you play that can produce unexpected results.

It's not that just because you think so, the market will think so.

Just as Chen Cheng produced this brand.

Although the effect is still good when it is played out.

But in the competition with Feng Xiaogang, the power that Chen Cheng displayed as the producer of this brand was not as great as before.

even.

At this time, some media took the opportunity to diss Chen Cheng.

And think.

Chen Cheng is just like a shooting star.

Although he created an extremely brilliant record, he was a flash in the pan.

The real mainstay of the domestic film market can only be Feng Xiaogang.

Although this is a soft article.

But this also made Chen Cheng more clear about his own positioning.

The film market is not so easy to get into.

Even if you have achieved certain results, you are not invincible.

of course.

This did not discourage Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng came up from the bottom and his attitude has always been good.

He always felt that nothing was so easy to achieve.

For a person to go from being unknown to being world famous, he must have gone through countless ups and downs along the way.

Maybe there are those geniuses.

But if a genius has never experienced hardships, he will not be able to withstand the storms.

and.

Chen Cheng persisted.

The market for main theme movies lasts much longer than other types of movies.

only.

It’s just that people don’t quite understand the main theme nowadays.

……

It's just that Chen Cheng was not affected too much. On the other side.

Maybe they found that the publicity campaigns for "The Siege of the City in October" didn't have much effect.

However, some media gradually pointed the finger at Chen Cheng.

"In those years, director Chen Cheng ran out of ideas."

"He has only directed one movie, but he has been called the fourth best director in China. Now his true identity has finally been revealed."

"Chen Cheng vs. Feng Xiaogang, how many more years of hard work will it take for a new director to become a director?"

"The sixth generation of directors has failed, and the domestic film market still relies on the fifth generation."

Don't know who.

At first, there was only a little gossip like this.

slowly.

As long as you enter the circle, you will find a lot of posts questioning Chen Cheng.

"Brother, many media outlets are scolding you online."

"I saw it."

"You won't fight back?"

"What's there to fight back? They say their thing and I just do mine."

Chen Cheng remained calm.

In fact, Chen Cheng had already prepared for this matter.

Just like when "Those Years" was popular before.

How many people were praising those years, and how many media were praising Chen Cheng at that time.

In the future, there will be many people disparaging Chen Cheng, and many media outlets will be madly diss Chen Cheng.

Not before.

That was when Chen Cheng performed well in the past.

just now.

As soon as there is any sign of trouble or something is slightly worse, these media outlets will come out like crazy.

In principle.

It’s not the fault of these media.

These guys in the media have no thoughts of their own.

They just do the work for money.

Whose money are you taking?
Of course, it is to take money from competitors.

Chen Cheng's advancement blocked the way for too many people and also blocked the future for too many people.

"Chen Cheng, do you want to hold a press conference?"

Agent Wang Hua called Chen Cheng with great concern.

Chen Cheng laughed and said, "What kind of press conference is this? Do I have to assure everyone at the press conference that I have not run out of ideas and that I have a lot of talent?"

"But we can't allow these media to continue to slander us like this."

"They are not slandering. You see, it is true that in recent times, the word Chen Cheng cannot compete with Feng Xiaogang."

"I'm convinced. You're not angry at all?"

"What else? Should I have a real-life PK with Feng Xiaogang? Besides, it may not be Feng Xiaogang who did it."

inside.

Maybe Feng Xiaogang too.

But most of them should be people who want to take this opportunity to bring down Chen Cheng.

As for who these people are?
unimportant.

There is no deep hatred among people in the circle, everything is for profit.

They appeared because of interests.

When there is no more benefit, they will disappear from the circle.

……

The two sides compete.

For now, Feng Xiaogang has a slight advantage.

Feng Xiaogang was in a good mood.

I was originally worried about Chen Cheng.

Now let’s see.

I still overestimated this guy.

wrong.

Not only did I overestimate this guy, I also underestimated myself.

The influence of the three major directors in our country cannot be compared with that of a younger generation.

Feng Xiaogang was in a good mood and called Chen Cheng:
"Director Chen, I heard that you are good at box office prediction."

"generally."

"How about predicting our If You Are the One?"

"It should be good."

Chen Cheng was relatively calm regarding Feng Xiaogang's call.

Although he is now competing with Feng Xiaogang.

But many times, even in PK, polite words still need to be said.

"How much is good?"

“It should be better than Assembly.”

"Chen Cheng, you have a good eye. What do you think of your work, The Besieged City in October?"

“It should be good.”

“How does it compare to If You Are the One?”

"Ha ha……"

Chen Cheng smiled.

He suddenly realized.

Feng Xiaogang and Huayi CEO Wang Zhonglei have the same personality.

Everyone likes to follow others to predict the box office.

"Director Feng, the two films are not actually of the same genre, so let's not compare them."

"Since they are both movies and released in the same period, they will naturally be compared."

"Okay then... I'll tell you the answer in a few days."

"Why a few days?"

"Because in a few days, someone might say, If You Are the One, it's not worth watching."

"What did you say!!!"

……

"Boss Wang, why don't we promote our Love Apartment first?"

"I think so too."

"That's great."

I didn’t want to pay attention to these media before, nor did I want to pay attention to Feng Xiaogang.

Unexpectedly, this guy started to show off.

"In that case, it's time to show some real skills."

Chen Cheng finally understood.

Since you are in the circle.

Being too low-key is sometimes not a good thing.

Feng Xiaogang's Feng-style humor is good.

But in Chen Cheng's eyes.

This kind of humor is outdated.

As for why everyone still likes it so much now.

that is because.

They haven't seen anything better.

Once a better work appears.

What many people previously considered to be classics were actually just that.

Although Love Apartment is a TV series, not a movie.

But his level of humor is no less than that of If You Are the One.

even.

You're welcome.

I watched Love Apartment.

Then.

You will have no interest in If You Are the One at all.

Of course.

Love Apartment has not started airing yet.

But this did not prevent Chen Cheng from releasing some clips of Love Apartment.

……

"Brothers, here are some benefits for everyone."

Chen Cheng entered the Chen Cheng Forum and opened a thread.

In just a moment, a group of netizens from the forum quickly emerged.

Chen Cheng released the first trailer of Love Apartment.

The first clip is about the protagonist Zeng Xiaoxian participating in the "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" event.

inside the video.

The protagonist Zeng Xiaoxian and the host sat opposite each other.

The host asked Zeng Xiaoxian: "What a coincidence, I heard that you are also a host. Please tell me why you are sitting here."

Zeng Xiaoxian was stunned: "Didn't you ask me to sit here?"

Host: "Wrong answer. You got the first question wrong."

Zeng Xiaoxian: “Ah?”

Host: "Just kidding. Next, every word you say is crucial. If you answer the questions correctly in a row, you can challenge for a huge bonus of up to 5 million yuan. You can also choose to give up halfway and take the accumulated bonus in the prize pool at that time. If you fail to answer the questions, you will lose everything you have won before. Of course, we can reimburse your train ticket home."

Since it is a trailer, Chen Cheng made some deletions to the entire answering process.

Because part of it is Zeng Xiaoxian’s emotional activities.

Before everyone watched "Love Apartment", everyone would be a little confused.

but.

This emotional activity does not affect the funny level of this correct answer.

"Please listen to the question."

"What is the name of Big Big Wolf's wife in the cartoon Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf?"

"A: Red Taro. B: Red Sun. C: Red Boy. D: Red Gold Treasure."

Zeng Xiaoxian was stunned. He thought the question was too easy and chose A directly.

result.

According to the program team's cheating rules.

The first few options ABCD are all help buttons.

As for how the contestants should answer, just tell the host directly.

"My grass..."

"What kind of show is this? It's so fucking lame."

"Hahahaha, hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. This is even funnier than 'Love Call Transfer'."

"My stomach hurts from laughing so hard right now."

Everyone watched and touched their stomachs.

But it's not over yet.

"Please listen to the question. Question 2006: Who is the Warcraft champion?"

As soon as this question came out.

Zeng Xiaoxian was a little confused.

The host was very proud.

He knew that this question was unpopular and most people would not know it.

While drinking water, he asked, "Zeng Xiaoxian, do you usually play video games?"

Zeng Xiaoxian replied: "Occasionally."

The host asked again: "StarCraft or Warcraft?"

Zeng Xiaoxian: “Link it.”

As the words fell, the host was drinking mineral water, but was choked by Zeng Xiaoxian's answer and almost fell down.

Such a funny video will make people laugh even if it is released in later generations.

Not to mention 2008.

It can be said.

As soon as Chen Cheng's edited version of the video came out, the entire forum's fans were already bursting with laughter.

"No, no, it's really not possible."

"Oh my god, I watched this video dozens of times, and I laughed so hard every time."

"Yes, yes, yes, especially the last sentence, hahahaha, hahahaha..."

"I want to ask, where did the video come from? Is there any more?"

"Didn't you read the title? This is the Love Apartment filmed by Director Chen. It will be broadcast in a while."

"Oh, that's great. When will it be released in theaters?"

"Brother, this is a TV series, not a movie."

"Fuck, this is a TV series... I like it more, and I'm waiting for it to be updated again."

As a forum with tens of millions of members and fans.

Chen Cheng Tieba has always been one of the three most popular Tieba in China.

Even when Chen Cheng is not online in this forum, he is already very popular.

At this moment, a very explosive news came out, and its popularity instantly covered the entire network.

With the spread of fans and netizens.

Classic funny videos of Love Apartment are constantly being spread in almost every corner.

……

of course.

Speaking of funny videos in Love Apartment, there are more than just this one.

For Love Apartment.

Almost every episode and every shot of him is so funny that it can’t be funnier.

The next day, Chen Cheng updated the video of everyone in Love Apartment fighting for space.

On the third day, Chen Cheng updated the Love Apartment Singles Night video again.

Day ...

Chen Cheng updates one to two minutes of trailers and videos of "Love Apartment" every day.

Until a week.

A netizen suddenly said, it seems there is no need to watch "If You Are the One".
