tearjerker director

Chapter 797 Li Yi was also threatened by capital?
The launch conference of "Changjin Lake" naturally attracted countless media.

First of all, it can be said that this is Li Yi's first time directing such a really big scene, a big production movie.

Secondly, the lineup of this film can beat most of the domestic films.

Again, this movie is about the "Battle of Changjin Lake", which is the main theme movie. Li Yi had filmed "The Garland Under the Mountain" earlier, which was another war after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The box office has a double harvest, but it still leaves a lot of regret for movie fans, that is, there are too few war scenes.

At the same time, for this movie, Zhao Xuan, one of the rumored leading actor candidates and one of the top stars of Huaguo's new generation, who is backed by Wanxing Group, unexpectedly failed to be selected, which also surprised many people.

The launch conference and the launch ceremony are actually two different things.

Generally speaking, the launch conference is a media meeting before the filming starts. It is mainly to announce the film lineup and some news to tell the outside world that the film has started.

Therefore, most of the launch conferences will not be placed on the shooting site, but the launch ceremony is different.

The opening ceremony is more aimed at the entire crew, announcing the start of the film.

Generally speaking, it will be held at the shooting location. After the opening ceremony, the movie will actually start shooting.

Closer to home.

The film launch conference of "Changjin Lake" was held at the Military Museum in Beijing.

The hall, which can accommodate nearly [-] people, has been almost fully occupied by media from all over the country.

"Director Li seems to be filming this kind of really big scene for the first time, a big production, right?" Before the official start of the press conference, some reporters naturally started chatting.

"It seems to be true. However, it is hard to say that "Changjin Lake" must be a real big scene production. After all, "Garland under the Mountain" is also a war film, but in fact it focuses more on the pre-war period. After and after the war, there were very few war scenes in the middle. So, "Changjin Lake" may not necessarily shoot big war scenes, right?"

"Do you think a movie with an investment of more than one billion yuan will not even show enemies like "Garland Under the Mountain"?" A reporter retorted.

"This time the battle is obviously bigger than before, and have you seen that Huaying Group, Bayi Film Studio, Wanxing Group, so many investors, so many companies jointly produced, this is in Li Yi's past films It’s rare among them, isn’t it? It’s obvious that the rhythm of the big cast is going to be played.”

"Really, but it was indeed an accident that Zhao Xuan lost the election."

"It's not surprising at all, okay? Who is Li Yi? When he was just a fledgling, when he was filming "Mom Loves Me Once", he dared to directly replace Wu Ting, the head artist of Hong Kong Star Entertainment on Hong Kong Island, even more Needless to say, what has Li Yi achieved now?"

"If you want me to say, isn't this a good thing? Those directors in China, even those famous directors, their films are hard to be free from the influence of capital. It turns out that laymen guide experts, and in the end they all become Slots for complaining."

"Be tough! The point is, if other directors did this, they would have been overwhelmed by the vast number of fans, but Li Yi has the confidence."

Everyone chatted and discussed.

At this time, someone suddenly said: "Here we come!"

Only then did everyone stop discussing and turned their attention to the main stage.

The host is still Li Yi's old acquaintance, Fang Nan, the famous host of Jingnan TV.

"Thank you all friends from the media for coming to the launch conference of the large-scale war film "Changjin Lake""

After Fang Nan's routine opening, he began to introduce the main creative lineup of "Changjin Lake".

The lineup of "Changjin Lake" is not insignificant.

It can be said that the top actors and directors in Huaguo include the three generations of the old, the middle and the young.

As for the director, Li Yi naturally doesn't need to say more.

However, many media were surprised by the lineup of assistant directors, such as Yan Chunming and other veteran war film directors with red marks on their bodies, which made everyone more and more sure that Li Yi really wanted to make a big deal this time.

Then there's the starring role.

The previous roles of Wu Wanli's parents, leaders, and great men were all played by those real old drama players who are familiar to everyone.

After that, there are Chen Wen, Zhou Guo, and Lin Yunbin, the three former "Wreath under the Mountain" iron triangle.

They can be said to be the first top film actors in China.

Then came the Mesozoic, Li Tongzhou, Xu Zhengrong, and Hu Yifei.

Finally, Guan Xiaoshan, and to everyone's surprise, Zhao Xuan!
When Zhao Xuan's name was read out and Zhao Xuan walked onto the stage, the media reporters below started to move for the first time.

"Zhao Xuan?"

"Didn't it mean he lost the election?"

"Is Li Yi also unable to escape the threat of capital?"

"Yes, why did Zhao Xuan appear?"

The appearance of Zhao Xuan can indeed be said to be the biggest surprise of this launch conference.

Because of the casting of "Changjin Lake" earlier, the matter of the four candidates can be said to be almost well known.

And after Zhao Xuan lost the election, his fans still rushed to Guan Xiaoshan's Weibo, but now that Zhao Xuan and Guan Xiaoshan appear here together, it's hard not to be surprised.

So is Li Yi really unable to escape being coerced by capital?
Really not.

The invitation was sent by Li Yi on his own initiative, but Zhao Xuan is not the real leading actor. As for why he appeared here, of course it was for the promotion of the movie.

Li Yi is not the kind of person who pretends to be lofty. Although Zhao Xuan is indeed not the best candidate for Wu Wanli in Li Yi's mind, it does not mean that Zhao Xuan is not good enough.

It's purely because the character really doesn't match Zhao Xuan.

But there is also a character that is more compatible with Zhao Xuan, Zhang Xiaoshan!
Yes, Zhao Xuan played the supporting role of Zhang Xiaoshan.

One is that Chen Wen really likes Zhao Xuan, so he recommended it to Li Yi. At that time, Li Yi sent an invitation to Wanxing, not the leading role, but a small supporting role.

Originally, Li Yi thought that Wan Xing and Zhao Xuan might not accept such a "small role", but unexpectedly, Zhao Xuan agreed immediately.

Li Yi was naturally happy to give the movie an extra point of promotion.

One more publicity stunt.

Obviously, Zhao Xuan appeared at the launch conference, and the effect was good.

Soon, the cast began introducing their characters.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lin Yunbin, playing the role of Wu Qianli, the commander of the seventh company in "Changjin Lake"!"

"Hello everyone, I'm Zhou Guo, playing the role of Mei Sheng, the instructor of the Seventh Company in "Changjin Lake"!"

"Hello everyone, I'm Chen Wen, playing the role of Lei Jusheng, the leader of the seventh artillery platoon in "Changjin Lake""

After the three leading roles, it is Li Tongzhou who has more roles in the main roles.

Then finally it was the turn of Zhao Xuan and Guan Xiaoshan who were most concerned by the media reporters!
