Chapter 168 This World Is Crazy! (Second more please subscribe!)
"The second location, the opening scene of the film celebrating the Double Tenth Festival of the Wang Puppet Government, was chosen on Jiefang North Road in Tianjing. The entire street is full of cultural relics, which fully meets the requirements!"

"But that street is the Tianjing Financial Center, and the local government requires that the surrounding traffic not be affected. To shoot on this street, you need to obtain permission from more than a dozen relevant departments, including the public security, transportation, and style offices."

Chen Guofu handed the survey photos to Tang An, and said with a wry smile, "And the most difficult thing is the set, you can't use even a single nail, and you have to restore it intact after shooting. In this case, neon lights, billboards, etc. It’s not easy to put it down!”

Tang An took a stack of photos, and it was true that the whole street was full of antique buildings.

The street is not too wide, and there are sycamores planted along the road, with dense branches and leaves, covering the road with green shade.

The buildings on both sides are unique in shape, Gothic, Romanesque, Germanic, Russian classical and other medieval Western buildings are quite exotic and interesting, and they are all saved to build buildings.

"Mr. Chen, that's it. It can be glued on without nails, and there is no large-scale fighting scene. It should not damage the building."

Tang An asked for it, and Chen Guofu, the big housekeeper, could only do his best to satisfy it.

"Then I will go to Tianjing myself, but I will also send people to investigate other places, at least I have to have a backup option!"

"The last is the interior of Qiuzhuang. The Zhuozhou film and television base is good. It's close to the capital. It takes more than an hour's drive to get there. Two 1200-square-meter studios are just enough!"

Prices in the capital are too expensive. Without the investment of China Film Group this time, the cost of filming in Huairou will definitely increase. It is better to go to Zhuozhou in northern Hebei.

After the exterior and interior scenes are determined, the set can be started, and it is estimated that it will take more than a month.

Next, we talked about the film's publicity plan.

"After discussions between Mr. Tang and I, it was decided to announce that the cost of "The Wind" is 1 million yuan, and it is emphatically emphasized that this film did not invite any stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan to join!"

Wang Zhongjun said and looked at Zhu Mo, Director of the Propaganda Department, "Mr. Zhu, focus on these two points in the early stage of publicity, highlighting that this is the first large-scale production in China with an investment of hundreds of millions without Hong Kong and Taiwan stars!"

"Alright Mr. Wang, I will make a publicity plan myself!" Zhu Mo responded.

Tang An interjected at this time, "Mr. Zhu, you must pay attention to a certain degree, and just point it out a little. After all, it is still early before the movie is released, and it will consume the enthusiasm of the audience too early, which is not conducive to the subsequent box office. And pay attention to controlling the direction of public opinion." , try to focus on the movie itself."

Fortunately, this was in 06, 10 years later, in the Internet age, this matter will definitely turn into a scolding war.

Although he is not afraid of offending those Xiangjiang people, whether it is actors, companies or capital, they have nothing to do with Tang An.

But still want river crabs!
For the stability of the motherland!

The meeting continued, and the next topic was the promotion of "The Banquet".

So far, the film has been released for 23 days, and the Golden Week of October has passed, with a total box office of just over 1.2 million.

The seven-day long vacation did not save Feng Xiaogang, and was even overwhelmed by "Baby Project", but it helped Cheng Long.

The holidays are over, the box office is like this, Wang Zhongjun can only find a way to increase the box office a little bit.

At 5 pm, Tang An got off work as usual.

However, this time, he was blocked by more than a dozen reporters.

Looking at the reporters rushing forward twice, Tang An estimated his speed.

Whether you run to the building, or to the parking lot, you will be stopped by reporters in advance.

Unless he suddenly possesses Bolt!
Tang An simply waited where he was, watching them approach.

Take two steps back calmly to avoid being bumped into.

"Director Tang, is it true that Huayi announced a blockbuster movie with an investment of [-] million?"

"Investing [-] million yuan, what kind of movie do you want to make?"

"This time is a costume film or a sci-fi film, will it use a lot of special effects scenes?"

Before the person arrives, the sound arrives first.

As soon as the words were finished, the people just arrived.

"Don't be in a hurry, everyone, come one by one. If you have any questions, ask them early. After I get off work, everyone will call it a day."

The reporters did not take a breath, and repeated the question just now.

Tang An has nothing to hide, anyway, he has already gone to Optoelectronics to establish a project, and he will be able to find out after a few days.

"I am currently preparing a new film, with an investment of about 1 million yuan. I would also like to thank Director Wang for his support. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to spend so much money!"

"Then what type of movie is it this time? Is it a science fiction movie?" the reporter asked.

"No, I said before that I would try different types of movies, so this time it will be another innovation!" Tang An laughed.

"Is that a costume blockbuster? Based on history or an original story?"

With a huge investment of 1 million yuan, only costume movies can be thought of.

You can't make a magical or fantasy blockbuster, it would be too nonsense.

However, Tang An's answer was beyond their expectations.

"Spy movie, this time I want to make a blockbuster spy movie!"

This.
Spy movie?
What is this?
When "Super Body" was filmed, although the audience was surprised, although there were no science fiction films in China, there were many abroad, so there was no fuss.

But what the hell is a spy movie?

This type of movie will be made with the main theme!
Moreover, there are very few films of this type among the main theme films.

And what about abroad?There are almost no such movies.

The reporters were puzzled and racked their brains thinking about it, but forgot to ask a question for a while.

==, Could it be a spy movie?

A smart reporter immediately reacted, and then asked.

"Director Tang, are you going to make a film similar to "Mission: Impossible" and "The Bourne Shadow"?"

Everyone else was also looking forward to Tang An's answer.

However, the clever reporter was about to be disappointed.

"No, this is not an action movie, but a spy movie, literally!" Tang An said with a smile.

Seeing Tang An's expression that didn't look like he was joking, the reporters were stunned.

"Director Tang, are you talking about a spy movie? A spy movie like "Before Dawn"?" A reporter asked weakly, and he couldn't believe it.

"Almost, they're all of the same genre. It's about what happened during the Anti-Japanese War, when the Japanese were investigating the underground party members lurking inside them."

After Tang An briefly said, the reporters still looked in disbelief.

It's fine to make a spy movie, but invest [-] million!

Either Tang An is crazy, or the world is crazy!
Tang An didn't play his cards according to common sense, making the questions that the reporters had originally prepared useless.

Taking advantage of their dumbfounded efforts, Tang An just slipped away!

A spy movie worth 1 million yuan is indeed unbelievable.
