most charming

Lin Tao never expected that the first business that Phantom Studio received was not to cooperate with Zhao Anhua, but to advertise for a medium-sized supermarket chain.When he heard the news, he couldn't help feeling secretly that he really wasn't the material for doing business, how long it took Guo Yiling to take over, and he actually got the business.

But because of such a single business, Guo Yiling regretfully missed the opportunity to return to China to sign a contract with Zhao Anhua. To put it bluntly, she didn't see Lin Tao, let alone see her parents.

It's a pity, it's a pity, for her now, the most important thing is to complete the task in hand and make a good start for the Phantom, so the good thing of signing the contract naturally falls on Stephanie.Regardless of her being an American citizen, it is actually the first time she has left the United States, and the farthest she has gone before is the border between Canada and Mexico.

As the national power of the Republic grows stronger and its status in the world continues to rise, more and more foreigners begin to learn Chinese as a second language, just like Chinese people learn English as a second language, all for the convenience of communication and communication when going out.

Stephanie is a child prodigy in learning, and in fact she is also a genius in language. No matter what her purpose is, in the constant communication with Guo Yiling, her Chinese level has risen sharply. Now there is no problem in basic conversations, even Pronunciation is corrected very close to Mandarin.

Lin Tao chose Mingzhu as the location of the contract. The reason why he didn't choose the capital city was Zhao Anhua's suggestion.After rejecting the investment and cooperation between China Film and Huaying, Zhao Anhua never went to the capital again. First, he felt that there were still people who were unwilling to give up, and it was annoying to pester him for nothing. Part of it was pretending, but the other part was genuinely angry, and Zhao Anhua came straight out of the way.

There is also another reason why Lin Tao chose to sign the contract with Mingzhu, that is, Mingzhu is the headquarters of the Bai family, not to mention that his father-in-law is also a parent official, and it is also an exposure. The family has to go.

Of course, Mingzhu has long been an international metropolis. Whether Guo Zhan needs such exposure is another matter, but Lin Tao must have his heart.

There is a signing ceremony and a press conference, and newspapers and magazines across the country have sent hundreds of reporters to participate in the signing ceremony.

The office building of Baisheng Group, the conference report hall dedicated to Baisheng Group, the arc-shaped stepped seats are full of people, the reporters who come late can only stand in the aisle, and all kinds of "long guns and short guns" are also aimed at rostrum.

Baiheng Group has done a good job in hospitality. Every reporter has water to drink and free paper and pens to use.When the signing ceremony officially started, Zhao Anhua and other talents sat on the rostrum.

The entire signing process is also very simple, the documents have been prepared long ago, and Zhao Anhua and Stephanie only need to sign symbolically.Then the two parties exchange contracts, hug and greet, and the signing is over.

The whole process was simple, quick and efficient. Before the reporters below were ready, the press conference was announced, and everyone was caught off guard.

The press conference was presided over by the public relations manager of Baisheng Group. She was also a beautiful woman who could speak well and was an expert in dealing with people. There were international famous directors on the rostrum, new domestic directors, and American beauties, but she still kept her own It is a skill that will not be completely ignored by others.

"Welcome everyone to Mingzhu. You have worked hard all the way. The weather is not very good recently. Everyone should drink more hot water!" The beauty's teasing drew a male reporter's laughter.In fact, drinking hot water is originally a word to express concern, but a joke that was popular on the Internet a while ago gave this word more meaning.

The joke is like this: the girl is sick, the boy says drink more hot water; the girl has a sore throat, the boy says drink more hot water; The hot water, if you drink it, the old lady will become a hot water bottle!

The main point of this joke is that although the boy cares, he is too incomprehensible, saying [-] words of concern is not as touching as coming to the door with the medicine and telling him to take it.

"Okay, I was just joking just now, and now the press conference officially begins."

The reporters couldn't wait for a long time, and they kept asking questions, but no one could understand what they were talking about.

The beauty raised her hand and pressed down lightly, and said with a smile: "Everyone, come one by one. If you ask like this, it means you didn't ask, and it's a waste of everyone's time."

The beauty speaks easily, and the reporter really stopped the pull-down at the same time.But she didn't believe that the reporters would be so self-conscious, so she casually pointed to one of them and said, "You ask questions!"

The reporter was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would be the first to ask the question. After thinking about the question he wanted to ask, he stood up and said, "Director Zhao, hello, I'm a reporter from xx Business Daily. It's my honor to be the first A question." Facing international directors, he was still a little cautious.

Zhao Anhua said with a smile, "Hello!"

"I want to ask, why did you choose Lin Tao, a newcomer, as the leading role? According to normal reasoning, as long as you say something in the circle, many stars or even first-line stars should take the initiative to come to your movie, but why did you choose Looking for Lin Tao? I checked the information, and he only has one film, "Broken Army". Although he has received many nominations, he has not won many awards, let alone awards for actors."

Zhao Xiahong stared at the reporter blankly, feeling very upset. As his first work, "Broken Army" was also the beginning of his formal entry into the film industry. Although he won few awards, the nominations he should have were basically It's all there, and it's not that bad.But now compared with Zhao Anhua, he is completely submerged in the saliva. This is really infuriating, especially when the reporter's speech is quite unpleasant. Your sister, didn't you see the director of "Broken Army" sit down? On the rostrum, it was completely ignored!

"That's not the way to say it!" Zhao Anhua nodded slightly, thought for a while, and then said, ""Broken Army" is a good movie. It can be said that if the director was replaced by me, the box office might double. I filmed it in Hollywood, and if I use some big-name stars, it is estimated that the box office will double. Therefore, the quality of the movie is one aspect, and the appeal of the actors and directors is another aspect. The quality of a movie cannot be judged solely by the number of awards. And the level of the actors."

After a pause, Zhao Anhua continued: "As we all know, the best films at the Oscars are basically the kind of films that have a good reputation but no box office. It must be "The Hurt Locker" a few years ago. How many people in China have seen it? But the result? "Avatar" has a production of 5 million US dollars and a global box office of more than one billion US dollars. In the end, it was not lost to this kind of film that only has word of mouth. Therefore, it is not important whether Lin Tao is a newcomer, what is important is whether he can act In my eyes, Lin Tao is a very good actor, and more importantly, he has a very good mentality, not exaggerated or impetuous, which is very commendable!"

When the reporter heard this, he felt a little reconciled. The director praised the actor as normal, but he couldn't help but put gold on the other's face!

After thinking for a while, he continued to ask: "We all have seen Lin Tao's acting skills, and his performance in "Breaking the Army" is really good, but your movie is a Hollywood commercial, so aren't you afraid of being dragged down by Lin Tao's popularity?"

Zhao Anhua said: "I will choose a female star to act with Lin Tao in Hollywood, and the popularity will not be much worse. You are usually just watching, but I am filming. In my opinion, a big-name star is the best male and female lead. Well, if both are big-name stars, it may not be possible to spark a "spark". More often than not, they will compete with each other, which will affect the quality of the movie. Now movies are not the kind of movies that rely on stars to pile up box office in the past. Times, the script is very important, acting skills are also very important, I believe Lin Tao can do it, and he can do it better."

"Okay, thank you Director Zhao for your answer, the next one!" The beauty changed decisively.

The reporter opened his mouth, and there were still questions to ask, but he also knew that his questions were not very popular, so he could only shake his head helplessly and listen to his colleagues.

As the number one male, Lin Tao sat on the rostrum facing all the reporters, with a smile on his face all the time. In fact, he wanted to laugh like hell. The questions raised by these reporters were all kinds of strange. In conclusion, none of them was a blessing to the movie The big sellers are all questioned from all aspects.

In fact, it’s not the reporter’s fault. Even the Internet has a lot of doubts. After all, Lin Tao is a newcomer, Feng Mengna is a newcomer, the heroine is undecided, and the second male lead is still on schedule. A layer of suspense, whether it will succeed or not is everyone's question.

Whether a movie is successful or not depends on word of mouth besides the box office, and over the years, there are very few movies that have both box office and word of mouth. Even "Titanic", a classic movie that has dominated the world's box office for many years, was also popular at the beginning. People commented that "acting skills are jerky" and so on, so the box office and word of mouth are basically in a state of opposition. Few people can break through this shackles and achieve a win-win situation at the box office and word of mouth. Once achieved, the movie will inevitably become popular all over the world. became a theorem.

The one-and-a-half-hour press conference was finally over. The Baisheng Group was in charge of entertaining the reporters. A magazine with a good relationship with Zhao Xiahong got an exclusive interview opportunity, and brought a group of people into the room to talk for nearly an hour before it ended.

It was less than three hours before and after, but it made people feel extremely tired. Stephanie returned to the room and threw herself directly on the soft big bed, never wanting to get up again.

But the phone rang very blindly, and Stephanie struggled a lot before getting up to answer the phone.
