The superstar starts from the termination of the contract

Chapter 1110 Press Conference

As soon as they came out of the manor, everyone took a car to the scene of the press conference.

There were a lot of topics along the way, and Bill was not such a person who is easy to be silent. Although various topics were discussed, he finally returned to the movie itself.

Bill really wanted to cooperate with Lu Fan and swallow more resources from Hollywood.

Although American blockbuster movies have a wide audience, Chinese Kung Fu movies are very rare in this market. Even though there are many Chinese actors working hard in Hollywood, their reputation is average, and ordinary audiences do not buy it.

And they don't necessarily all star in Chinese kung fu movies, and the appearance of Lu Fan now fills this vacancy very well.

Bill originally planned to give Lu Fan a calligraphy and painting worth tens of millions, but he didn't expect the other party to refuse to accept it, which was not in his plan.

Although he likes money, it is an early investment for him, and it will definitely pay off in the future.

Of course, it doesn't mean that after giving away tens of millions, you can earn hundreds of millions back. Sometimes things like fame are more important than money.

No one dislikes money, but sometimes money is the most useless thing, otherwise Bill would not have given Tang Yin's calligraphy and painting to Lu Fan this time.

But the problem is, Lu Fan won't accept it!

Although he could figure out what Bill meant, Lu Fanyi didn't block the way out, and no one knew what difficulties he would encounter in his future development in Hollywood.

So Lu Fan said that there will definitely be opportunities to cooperate in the future, but it's still early and the movie hasn't been released yet, so it's useless to say these things.

With the current strength and resources of Zhengming Entertainment, it is not enough to gain a reputation in Hollywood, so Lu Fan has to use the strength of others as his own stepping stone to reach a certain height.

The overseas distribution rights of "Red Fan District" can only be handed over to these big companies in Los Angeles, but when it grows up, it must be handled by Lu Fan's own company.

This is also the reason why Zhengming Entertainment has to change its name and re-plan its development route.

Because if we don't cooperate with Bill now, we won't be able to eat the North American market at all.

"Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" is a good example, because it was not well publicized, although the word of mouth was good, the box office was mediocre.

Everyone has never heard of this movie, and even the theater has a pitifully low number of movies. Who would put so much thought into watching a strange and unpopular movie?

In the eyes of foreign movie fans, "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" is indeed an unpopular movie, and those who haven't seen it don't know what it means.

No matter in any field, cooperation can lead to win-win results. A person with insufficient ability and too much ambition will harm himself.

When they arrived at the press conference, many people were already waiting, but Lu Fan and the others were not late, but this time Bill attended the event in person, and they dared not neglect after sending invitations to the media.

When Bill got out of the car, the reporters around rushed over and kept taking pictures of him, and then Lu Fan and others also got out of the car. The reporters were not surprised, and also took pictures of them .

The scene in front of him gave a newcomer like Lin Fanghua the feeling that he was already an international superstar.

No wonder many people want to enter the entertainment industry, who can resist the temptation of lights and flowers?
The reporters asked questions one after another, and Bill's assistant opened the way in front, so that his boss and Lu Fan could walk onto the stage smoothly.

Although Lin Fanghua has never experienced such a scene, it is very common for Lu Fan and Wang Wen. No matter how large the scale of this press conference is, there are no Oscars and other film festivals.

Because "Iron Fist" held a similar press conference a few days ago, it can also be said to be a release ceremony, so today's attention is all on "Red Fan District" and its starring Lu Fan.

Although Lu Fan has a certain reputation abroad, it is far from being popular. If it weren't for Huaxia's action movie a few days ago that attracted the attention of many fans, then Kaimei Film and Television gave a few promotional clips , It is estimated that everyone's expectations for Lu Fan are far lower than they are now.

Even if Lu Fan was on the cover of Time Magazine before, and several movies have achieved good box office, but this is the country of America, and the word Lu Fan is relatively unfamiliar to the heroes in this land.

They may have seen the name and this person in Time Magazine, but they will definitely not associate him with the protagonist of "Red Fan District".

Later, after the promotion of Kaimei Film and Television, everyone suddenly realized that the Huaxia person who appeared on the cover of Time Magazine was the desperate young man in the movie promotion!

Many Westerners love extreme sports. Lu Fan's performance in "Red Fan District" can be said to have deeply aroused their interest. After getting to know Lu Fan from various aspects, many people came to the scene, Want to see his face.

Many foreigners are very obsessed with Chinese Kungfu, and it happens that Lu Fan is an expert in this field. It can be said that many reasons add up to make many Americans fall in love with Lu Fan.

In the process of walking towards the stage, many fans cheered loudly and shouted Lu Fan's name. This kind of battle shocked many people. When did a foreigner become so popular?
That is to say, Yang Long did not come to Los Angeles this time, otherwise he would definitely praise Lu Fan behind his back.

After all, this is a foreign country. Lu Fan can still have such a great appeal. For the members of the Lu Family Army, it is really a surprise!

Hearing the louder and louder voices, Lu Fan couldn't remain indifferent. As he walked towards the stage, he waved to the one next to him and talked to them in English.

Bill was also very surprised. Although he had prepared a lot of activities at the film press conference, it was absolutely unexpected that there were so many movie fans at the scene to welcome Lu Fan.

For a moment, many thoughts flashed through my mind, and the plan to cooperate with Lu Fan became more and more intense.

Behind the stage of the press conference, there was a huge "Red Fan District" movie promotional poster, several leading actors were on it, and Lu Fan's name was particularly conspicuous.

After getting on the stage, the reporters at the scene kept taking pictures, as if they were afraid of missing every detail of the press conference.

This is Bill's home court, and there are many things that Lu Fan doesn't know very well. After taking the stage, he can only stand silently at the same place, and let the host control the entire press conference.

According to international practice, I first introduced Kaimei Film and Television, Lu Fan and others, and the audience burst into applause from time to time. I don't know if they are really interested in these introductions, or to give Bill, the boss face.

After spending a few minutes introducing various people and events, the host tactfully handed over the stage to Lu Fan. Bill did not follow them on the stage, but sat below, acting as the audience.

The following content is mainly a question and answer between the host and Lu Fan. All the questions are related to the movie. Ritual, so I still understand these things.

After the atmosphere at the scene became active, the host asked the first question: "What kind of reason prompted Mr. Lu to shoot the movie "Red Fan District"?"

Hearing the host's question, Lu Fan felt that the other party must be out of his mind.

It is definitely not the host who listed these questions, he just followed the previous prompts to guide the direction of this press conference.

When Lu Fan watched "Red Fan District" for the first time, he knew that this movie did not pay attention to the plot at all, and what attracted the audience was entirely the super-burning scenes in the movie.

If it was the previous movies, Lu Fan could still answer this question perfectly. For example, "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng", Lu Fan would tell everyone that it is to promote Tai Chi in China.

The filming of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" was due to the topic of sky-high prices last year, which triggered Lu Fan's desire to call on everyone to pay more attention to patients.

"If there is love in the sky" wants to tell about love and loyalty.

Although these films were made because Lu Fan wanted to be famous, there were more or less reasons in his heart that prompted him to do so.

But the fourth movie of his personal career, this Hollywood stepping stone, made him wonder how to answer the host's question for a while.

Because the premise of shooting this movie is only because "Red Fan District" in another world allowed Jackie Chan to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood, so Lu Fan also wanted to do the same.

Lu Fan couldn't tell everyone on the scene that the reason he filmed "Red Fan District" was to become famous in Hollywood, but obviously he couldn't say that. Fortunately, he changed quickly and gave his reasons very quickly:

"In fact, there is no special reason. I have always been more casual in movies and music. It is often an inspiration or an idea that pops up suddenly, and I especially want to continue it. "Red Fan District" is like that here."

There was another wave of applause at the scene. I don't know what the guests present thought. Maybe they didn't mean it sincerely, but simply wanted to give Bill face.

On the contrary, the movie fans at the scene were all very excited when they heard Lu Fan's explanation, and felt that Lu Fan's straightforward character was very suitable for them.

Originally, the host had already given a more formal reason for Lu Fanhui, but he didn't expect to answer like this in the end, which was a bit unexpected.

However, his professionalism is very strong, and after a few words of praise, he started the second question.

"The filming location of "Red Fan District" was in New York. What was the purpose of choosing this place?"

Lu Fan still answered in a very candid way: "There is no special reason, in fact, I just want to come abroad to have a look, and make a living in Hollywood by the way."

Originally, Lu Fan didn't intend to reveal his purpose, but after seeing the fans at the scene, they were very excited about the similar answers. Guessing that they probably liked the straightforward and even a bit ostentatious character, he simply said Out of their own real purpose.

The scene was silent for a few seconds, and then the applause became louder. Obviously, the audience also thought that Lu Fan was incredible, as if he was a little different from other actors.

Fans cheered loudly, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became active. When Bill saw this scene, he smiled and looked nothing special, but no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.

"Mr. Lu's straightforward character really surprised me, but I think everyone likes this character very much, just like me."

There was no order from the headset. Obviously, the boss was quite satisfied with this scene, so the host followed the established process and continued the movie press conference.

"Mr. Lu, judging from the promotional videos circulating on the Internet, there are many scenes in the movie that look very dangerous, and I heard that you didn't use a stand-in throughout the movie. Everyone admires this professionalism. For what reason did you make this decision?"

In the entire press conference, the first more important link came.

The promotional video released by Kaimei Film and Television before just made everyone feel very enjoyable. After all, everyone will feel excited about the scene.

Not only in China, but almost men all over the world have strong heroism. Who doesn't want to be a hero who saves mankind?

Otherwise, movies like Iron Man and Spider-Man would not have appeared.

To a large extent, Lu Fan satisfied their psychology, especially when Lu Fan, as an ordinary person, did all kinds of things in the movie that only the protagonist's halo can do, it was even more deeply touching. attracted these fans.

The movie hasn't been released yet, and fans at the moment don't know that Lu Fan didn't overdo it in the play, and he really fits the identity of an ordinary person.

The only difference is that this normal guy has learned a little bit of kung fu, which makes sense for what he does in the movie.

If he really cheated, he wouldn't be forced to a dead end by a group of punks, facing the slamming of wine bottles, resulting in a lot of scars.

In fact, we are all ordinary people. This kind of plot is more substituting for movie fans. Everyone can't wait for the movie to be released, and enjoy the wonderful fights in the movie.

All the movie fans who came to the scene knew that Lu Fan was a real kung fu, so his action movies were more enjoyable to watch than ordinary movies.

At this moment, when the host said that Lu Fan didn't use a double in the play, everyone was stunned. Are there any action movies that don't use a double?

This young man is too different, right?

Looking at the whole world, there is no action actor who is not injured. It is no exaggeration to say that if one is pulled out casually, there will be at least dozens of wounds on his body.

It is true that these actors are rich in experience, but it is not so easy to complete some difficult movements during filming, and various accidents will occur from time to time. No one can guarantee that the filming will be smooth sailing. It is Lu Fan himself I dare not say such a thing.

Without a double, it proves that every difficult action has a risk of injury, not to mention that they saw many scenes in the promotional video that were frightening. As long as there is the slightest accident, not to mention death, it will definitely will be seriously injured.

Many movie fans couldn't come to their senses for a while, Lu Fan is not filming this, he is clearly playing with his life!
All the reporters on the scene stared at Lu Fan, wanting to hear him answer this question himself. It is unprecedented to not use a double, but it is definitely a part that cannot be ignored as an action actor.

Facing the reporter's question, Lu Fan was very calm, and said: "The matter of not using a substitute did not start from this movie. When I starred in the first movie, many movements were relatively difficult. It may not be able to complete well, and finally I came by myself.

The next few movies are relatively simple, so I didn't use a double.There is no special reason for making such a decision. I just think that as an actor, this is just my job, and it's not a big deal. "

There was another burst of taking photos at the scene, and the flash of the camera continued to light up. Lu Fan's words shocked them very much.

I don't know when it started, it seems to be an unspoken rule for actors to use doubles, and everyone thinks it's a matter of course.

Some actions are indeed performed better by stand-in actors. The existence of this profession is not without reason.

But what Lu Fan said just now made them feel very reasonable, because as an actor, it is the actor's job to fulfill any requirements during filming, and sometimes it seems abnormal to use a substitute.

The fans cheered again, and some people couldn't control their emotions and shouted loudly. The general content was that they admired Lu Fan, that this is a real actor, and so on.

There was also a male movie fan who said "I love you" to Lu Fan with all his strength in front of the public...

Lu Fan felt uncomfortable. It's not that this kind of male fan showing love has never happened before, but everyone knows it's just a joke, so just have fun.

But the problem is that the male fan at the scene spoke very sincerely, as if he really had something for Lu Fan...

Fortunately, everyone didn't pay too much attention to this kind of thing. At this moment, Bufan has attracted everyone's attention time and time again. This young actor from China is indeed a little different from others.

The discussion among the fans hadn't died down yet, and suddenly a person in the audience stood up and said loudly: "I agree with Mr. Lu, as an actor, you shouldn't use a substitute. I'm ashamed of my previous experience. Here I declare that from now on I will learn from Mr. Lu and never use doubles in filming again!"

This sudden scene shocked the other guests sitting in the auditorium. Immediately afterwards, the reporters at the scene pointed their cameras at Thomas. The superstar of action movies would make a lot of noise every time he made a sound. movement.

Lu Fan didn't expect that Thomas would come to the scene, and saw his wild eyes, as if his decision had also deeply affected him.
