Chapter 225 The most perfect robbery technique in history (third update!)

mid-December.

Beijing, China World Hotel, the magic movie "Now You See Me" that has been in preparation for 4 months will hold a launch conference here.

Now that the Lunar New Year file is over, as of early this morning, the box office of "Assembly", which has been released for 25 days, has exceeded 2.28 million, and it has won a total of [-] million box office in China. It is catching up with the annual box office record set by "The Wind".

The box office of "Voting Certificate", which has been released for 31 days, has not broken 2 million, only 1.94 million.

Although it only got 670 million box office in seven days last week, and the single-day box office fell below the million mark, it is not difficult to break [-] million.

Four movies with a box office of [-] million yuan a year, and three domestic blockbusters!
There is no doubt that the domestic film market is still developing rapidly, steadily and healthily.

As the holder of the annual box office champion, Tang An, who beat the Hollywood Autobots, the three superstars, and the great director Feng Xiaogang, the launch conference of his new film naturally attracted the attention of the entire industry.

In the grand banquet hall, dozens of photographers were scattered all around, and nearly a thousand reporters and industry insiders gathered together.

"It took a long time to prepare for "You Now You See Me", it must have been 5 months now!"

A young man in the front row with a penguin logo microphone sighed.

As an entertainment reporter, I have basically watched all the well-known film and television dramas in China.

It was because the more he watched, the more his appetite became worse. If it wasn't for professional reasons, he wouldn't even watch bad movies if he was given movie tickets.

Well, I won't go if I give away a big bucket of popcorn and a big drink.

Unless you arrange a cute girl to watch with you^_^
Normally, the filming would start around November, just in time for the summer vacation, but now on January 11th, two months later, it means that the release will be later, and it may not even be in time for the summer vacation.

"What is 5 months? The longer the preparation time, the greater the probability of making a good film!" The Sohu reporter next to him said indifferently.

"Preparing for such a long time must have used a lot of special effects for big scenes, otherwise I really don't know where to spend the 1.5 million!"

"A magic-themed movie, I don't know what story it will tell, so it can bear the word shocking!"

"Just wait, Tang An has never disappointed the audience before, and I think this time will be no exception."

At ten o'clock in the morning, Tang An brought all the leading actors into the venue. Chairman of Huayi Wang Zhongjun, Director of Production Department Chen Guofu, Director of Public Relations Zhang Yijun, Deputy Director of Production Department Zhao Jun, and Xu Yunyun, who represented Tang An's studio, also entered the venue. Sit down one by one.

Zhang Yijun still plays the role of news officer.

On behalf of Hua Yi, Wang Zhongjun spoke first.

"Thank you, friends from the media, for taking the time out of their busy schedules to participate in the launch conference of the magic and crime blockbuster "Now You See Me" produced by our Huayi and Tang An Film and Television Studios."

Then I talked about a lot of difficulties in the preparation process, how hard it was for Tang An to write the script, staying up late until the early morning every day, the location team traveled all over the world, the set team worked overtime to build the studio, the actors had memorized lines in the past two months, and they were familiar with many roles. effort.

After speaking, there was another warm applause from the audience.

Xu Manyun then said something similar, and then the microphone was handed over to Tang An.

"Everyone knows that this is the fifth film I have directed. Every film, no matter what type it is or how much it costs, will encounter various difficulties from preparation to drawing."

""Now Now You See Me" is the one with the longest preparation time among my five films. Due to the particularity of the subject matter, I have prepared the script for more than two months, and every part requires perfection."

For magic themes, the audience must not be able to see the loopholes and tricks in the magic, otherwise it will be very detrimental to the movie.

The reporter started to ask questions.

The news officer naturally pointed to the leader of the portal, and the reporter from Xinlang News was the first to ask questions.

"Hello, Director Tang, this time you choose this magic-themed movie, what kind of magic will you perform in the movie, so that it can echo the word shocking in the title?"

""Now Now You See Me" is a movie about magic crimes, that is, using magic to commit crimes, and it has a shocking name. You can think about what crimes are shocking and can be related to magic. Get in touch!"

Tang An smiled slightly, but did not point out directly.

Diverge your ***, isn't this asking you!
The reporters had tens of thousands of words in their hearts that they didn't say, and they almost suffered internal injuries in their hearts.

In fact, let alone these reporters, apart from a few actors and Wang Zhongjun, other people in the industry knew very little about the details of the film.

"Mr. Sun, you and Hua Yi often have business contacts, so you don't know the details of this film!"

"How can I have such a great ability? I have inquired several times, but there is no information at all!"

"Why do you say they hide so deeply, they probably don't even know the plot."

The reporters also know Tang An's temperament, as long as it is something he doesn't want to say, you will break the casserole. . .

No, even if he cracked his head, he couldn't find anything useful.

However, just when the reporter was about to continue asking questions, Tang An said, "Since everyone can't guess, then I'll say it."

"Fuck, brother, what the hell are you doing!"

"Why are you conscious today, something is wrong!"

"Is this still Tang An, so honest!"

"It's not easy. After four years of filming, Tang An finally understands the truth of "Leniency for Confessions"!"

Everyone pricked up their ears, waiting for Tang An's answer.

Either turn on the recorder or hold a pen in hand to record.

Tang An couldn't help it. These reporters gave up after asking the question once. They didn't have the professionalism to break the casserole and ask the end.

In this situation, a large group of reporters should be chasing, crying, and begging him to answer. Only this can show Tang An's status.

Now you are so honest, if you don't answer, you don't ask, can you still pretend to be coercive happily!

Cough cough!
After organizing his words, Tang An straightened the microphone and spoke slowly to the crowd.

"The story of the film takes place in a huge and luxurious performance hall in Omen. The "Four Knights", a team composed of four well-known magicians Deng Chao, Tang Yan, Liu Ye, and Deng Kai, cooperated seamlessly. Witnessed, more than 2000 Singapore dollars were stolen from a bank in Singapore from a distance of more than 200 kilometers.

"Interpol Liao Fan and Yu Nan were ordered to investigate the four of them, but because they had perfect alibi, there was not enough evidence to convict them, so they had no choice but to turn to Mr. Wu Gang, a well-known magic revealer in the industry!"

As Tang An spoke out the outline of the plot word by word, the entire press conference became silent in an instant. There were no other unnecessary voices, and only Tang An was talking there.

There was no sound, or they were all shocked by Tang An's words.

They all looked dumbfounded!

It's not that no one has thought of using magic to rob a bank, but everyone guesses that they use methods such as hypnosis, or make a time difference, dig a tunnel from below, and then quickly transfer to the performance site.

But this is more than 2000 kilometers away, even if the money is snatched out in advance, the bank will have already discovered it when it is shipped in such a short time!

And Tang An also said just now that there is a perfect alibi, which is absolutely seamless, and it can be called the most perfect robbery technique in history!
