Chapter 200 Half of the Country (Please subscribe for the fourth update!!)
Ten o'clock in the morning, Beijing International Trade Hotel.

There was no celebration banquet when the box office of "The Wind" exceeded [-] million, and there was no celebration banquet when it broke its own personal record.

Now the box office has exceeded [-] million, so this time the celebration banquet is indispensable!
Whether it's a TV series or a movie, a celebration press conference is essential, and the reporters can't wait for you to hold a celebration party every day.

Every reporter can get a red envelope once they come. For some films without big directors or big-name stars, reporters need to help to say good things, and they may give more.

For directors like Tang An and the others at their level, it would be a good idea to give them two or three hundred yuan.

You have to give it to the premiere, you have to give it to the celebration banquet, at least two red envelopes are charged for a movie, and the four or five movies in the summer season add up to ten red envelopes!
Of course, it is impossible for the same media to send the same reporter all the time. No matter how old the qualifications are and how good the relationship is, they cannot always be alone.

For actors, it's another chance to be on camera without spending their own money.

The celebration press conference was the same as usual, with some well-known media in the industry coming, it was very lively.

The focus of the reporters' attention was also on Tang An.

"Director Tang, you have made four successful films in a row, each with a different theme. May I ask why you have such a good grasp of the market?"

A young man wearing glasses asked a well-regulated question, which made everyone speechless for a while.

In the opinion of the vast majority of people, including those in the industry, the market is a big star + a big director, at least one needs to be guaranteed to be the same, or else they will only die in the street.

The quality of the movie is far less important than the box office appeal of big-name directors, otherwise why those dark horses with good reviews are at most 3000 to [-] million at the box office.

Tang An thought for a while.

This question couldn't be easier for him, because he knows which films have high box office and are popular...

This must not be said, even if you are killed!
"Actually, the market is the preferences of the audience. Before preparing a film, I always think about what kind of people the main audience of the film will be!"

"There are many categories of movies. The major categories are action, comedy, horror, science fiction, war, etc. Each category can be further subdivided, and even the same genre has different emphases.

"For example, my second film "Horror Cruise", although it is a horror film, in fact, there are not many bloody scenes. It mainly relies on the plot and atmosphere to mobilize the audience's emotions, and it is more suspenseful!"

"What about "The Wind"?" The reporter immediately asked again.

""The Wind" is a spy movie, somewhat similar to a Hollywood spy movie. You can recall the three movies "007", "Mission: Impossible" and "The Bourne Shadow". There are still obvious differences."

"The same is true for "The Wind". As the name suggests, a spy film is a type of film and television drama with the theme of spies and underground secret activities, including undercover, interception and deciphering, solving crimes, suspense, love, violent torture and other elements."

"We first need to determine the main body of the film, the entire story line, and select a few core elements. "The Wind" is based on suspense, embellished with elements such as emotion, undercover, love, and violent torture!"

"So The Wind is also a suspense movie?"

"It can also be said that, so we have to consider what kind of lighting can make the actor's situation look dangerous, and finally chose the lighting of dark tones!"

"The background is also confined to a few rooms, giving people a sense of oppression!"

"Most of the shots are medium and close-up shots. When they gathered in the hall, they used panoramic shots, fully revealing everyone's state and mentality at the time, and letting the audience see that they have their own ghosts!"

"The things you shoot must conform to the theme, and don't deviate from the theme!"

Tang An finally ended with one sentence.

Movies are no better than TV dramas. The first two episodes are intense and exciting interception and deciphering the plot. The enemy's telegram is about to be intercepted, and an emotional scene is suddenly inserted.

It doesn't matter if it's a TV series, even one episode is fine. After all, the number of episodes is there, so it's normal to add some water.

Later, 20 episodes of the 80-plus episodes of those TV dramas could be produced, so where did the remaining 60 episodes come from?

Arrange more female and male supporting roles, love triangles and squares together.

If it doesn't work, men and women, women and men are not unintentional.

Not to mention 80 episodes, 180 episodes can come out.

But what about movies?
Every director and editor is desperately reducing the length of the film to make the plot more compact.

There is not even enough time to tell the story clearly, who will inject water.

But many directors will think that a XXX should be inserted here to express the XXX of the protagonist.

Then, in order to show the spirit and characteristics of the protagonist, we have to create a branch line.

If there are too many thoughts, it will become crooked, and it will become more and more crooked.

The press conference lasted for more than two hours, followed by the luncheon.

It is said to be a banquet, but it is actually for everyone to communicate, chat, and maybe there are some dirty deals behind the scenes.

"Congratulations Director Tang!"

"During the premiere, I said the box office would exceed [-] million, and I really hit the mark!"

"Director Tang won the box office championship of the year just around the corner. This is way ahead of many people!"

"Summer box office champion for three consecutive years, if things go on like this, director Tang will account for half of the domestic movie market!"

"Thank you Mr. Li for your auspicious words. I knew you should have said 3 million!"

"It's a little faster to walk, but the key is to go far!"

"Mr. Han is overrated. I don't dare to take on this half of the world. A "Transformers" made me burnt out!"

For more than half an hour, he was there to deal with the bosses of the major companies, and his face was almost frozen from laughter.

After finally coping with it, I quickly drank two glasses of Sprite in 07 to suppress my shock, and I still can't drink it after ten years of storage!

However, before it was clean, celebrities from all walks of life came together to say hello.

"Hello Director Tang, I am"

"Congratulations to director Tang, the movie is a big hit, I admire you very much."

"Director Tang, I've watched all four of your movies. It's really amazing."

There are men and women, both first-tier and second-tier, and there are some hints that everyone understands, which makes some men present envious.

After dealing with another wave, Wang Zhongjun came over with a happy face, holding a wine glass.

"Why is Mr. Tang drinking here alone?"

"Life is as lonely as snow, I want to be quiet!"

Wang Zhongjun was taken aback by Tang An's sudden remark, and then he laughed, "Mr. Tang should be lonely now, and he's already topped the box office champion of the year!"

"Today's celebration banquet is not grand enough. Another day, I will make a big move for Mr. Tang after the film is released!" Wang Zhongjun said and had a drink with Tang An.

"Then thank you, Director Wang!" Tang An said with a smile.

After more than 10 years, I haven't seen any kind of celebration banquet, and Tang An didn't ask in detail.

However, Wang Zhongjun, who was waiting for Tang An to question him, felt a little depressed. Seeing that he was so calm, he thought that he must be shocked when the time came!
"By the way, Mr. Tang, there is one more thing. You have been busy and forgot to tell you. Didn't Optoelectronics have a special feature on the 70th anniversary of the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. There will be an issue in the first half and the second half of the year. After two days, I will go to the movie channel. Make a show."

"But this time, seven or eight film and television dramas together form a special topic. The time is not long, probably less than 10 minutes. How about you go there yourself?"

What the hell?
Wang Zhongjun didn't mention that Tang An almost forgot. At the premiere, Tang An wondered if Optoelectronics would help promote it, but there was no movement for a long time!
Half a month has passed, and the efficiency is really low!

"That's fine, I'll go when the time comes."

Although it's "expired", the box office of "The Wind" is slowly weakening now. If Optoelectronics attaches great importance to this special topic, it may still have some effect!
……

It's a bit late... go to bed quickly, good night everyone (*∩_∩*)
