Chapter 574 It’s Time to Punch Cheng Long and Kick Li Lianjie

In Guangdong Province, on a university campus, the crew of "Wushuang" came here for a roadshow.

In the past two years, Wei Yang has been more and more fond of going to university campuses for the early promotion of the film.

There are many reasons, such as saving capital, expanding the influence of the film on young people, good atmosphere on the scene, more comfortable communication, etc. The biggest key is the good publicity effect.

College students are the main force of box office contribution and online Amway. Mastering this position will make publicity more effective.

Only Wei Yang, Yu Nan and two supporting roles came to this university today.

In order to improve the efficiency of publicity, the crew of "Wushuang" was divided into several teams, Wei Yang led one team, Fan Xiaopang led one team, Wang Zhiwen and director Gao Qunshu led one team.

Tang Yan was busy promoting "Golden Jade Marriage" and has not been reported yet. She will also be present at the roadshow for the film's release later. If it is still divided into groups, she will also lead a team.

After the host's interview with the main creators, the free questioning session began. A female college student stood up and asked Wei Yang a question.

"Excuse me, why did you choose Mr. Wang Zhiwen and Fan... to work together on this film "Wushuang"? "

"Let me correct you. It is the right of the director and producer to choose people. I am just an actor."

"Hush--"

The audience booed. If you, Boss Wei, were just an actor, there would be no big names in the entertainment industry.

Boss Wei had to admit defeat: "Okay, as a producer and supervisor, I have the right to recommend actors, and I did recommend Teacher Wang and Sister Bingbing."

"Shh——"

After a few jokes, Wei Yang said seriously: "Sister Bingbing doesn't need to be said much. We have worked together many times. We are not only familiar with each other, but also have a tacit understanding. So when such a complex character with a white moonlight aura appeared in the script, the first person I thought of was her."

"This is the first time I have worked with Teacher Wang Zhiwen, but we have been friends for a long time. I have watched many of his works repeatedly. The characteristics of some of his characters are similar to those in the movie..."

Another female student stood up. She was more concerned about gossip: "Famous", "Time and Space Cohabitation", "Wushuang", this is the third time I have worked with Fan... on a movie, which occupies most of your career. Is she the most perfect heroine in your mind?"

When this topic came out, the scene cheered. The girls were not alone. Compared with serious movie issues, everyone preferred this kind of exciting gossip.

Wei Yang was very calm about this, mainly because he had a lot of experience, and he couldn't help but mutter a few words to anyone who interviewed him. There was no way, the topic was high + curiosity could not be resisted.

"To be precise, it should be the fourth time I have cooperated with her in a movie. When I guest-starred in "The Founding of a Party", we also cooperated once."

Wei Yang's reply caused even greater cheers and booing at the scene. When the noise was a little quieter, he continued to answer.

"The question of whether she is the most perfect heroine is too offensive, but I can say that she is one of the best heroines I have ever worked with."

"Hush——"

This answer was obviously too cunning, and the audience was not satisfied. Boss Wei didn't care and smiled.

Just kidding, just for the sake of it!

For you to watch the fun, I have to jump into the minefield, why?

Another male student stood up: "I watched the movie trailer, and there are clips introducing related technologies. I want to ask, can the counterfeit money technology in the movie be replicated in reality?"

Wei Yang was confused and looked at the man vigilantly: "What do you want to do?"

The male student was a little embarrassed: "I'm just curious."

"It's better not to be curious about some things. Everyone is responsible for abiding by the law."

Wei Yang gave a few words of advice and asked Bodhi Patriarch to go online: "Host, please leave your contact information later. If there is a mess in the future, you can help to testify, so as not to affect our movie..."

It's always fun to communicate with young people who are still in the ivory tower.

They know how to respect, are often very polite, will applaud your sincerity, and will not overly condemn your slickness and cunning.

At the same time, they also despise authority and will not be timid because of your reputation. Everyone can get along relatively more equally, so both sides are enthusiastic and casual.

Sometimes their questions are very sharp, even leaving people speechless, and sometimes the questions are very naive, making people smile knowingly.

Wei Yang is usually very happy every time he finishes a roadshow at a university. This time is no exception. Before leaving, he asked the driver to buy a few special dishes from the cafeteria.

This is also a little trick he figured out when he participated in the roadshow of "Detective Chinatown" last time.

He found that the cafeteria of each university often has a few special foods or fairy stalls, which are well received by the whole school. The taste is not amazing, but most of them are above the standard. It can be said to be a good adjustment during the heavy roadshow work.

So now Wei Yang has developed a habit. Every time he goes to a university, if time permits, he will ask about the word-of-mouth food in the cafeteria or the surrounding area.

When the roadshow is over, buy a portion to take away. Not only can you enjoy the food, but you will also have the surprise and fun of opening blind boxes in the store.

Because he has posted several Weibos, this hobby has been known by many fans and students. They have recommended the delicious food of their own schools and tempted Boss Wei to come to the roadshow, which has allowed Wei Yang to get a lot of information.

This time is also the case. Just now, after the roadshow, Wei Yang didn't mention it, and the students took the initiative to tell him which stall has delicious food.

Boss Wei readily accepted the offer and asked the driver to buy several large portions, which also benefited Yu Nan and her friends.

Instead of returning to the hotel, they took a car to another city. Wei Yang opened the package in the car.

A portion of barbecued pork rice, half a roast goose, pineapple sweet potato and pepper chicken, two assorted pies, and a portion of fried rice.

It can be seen that most of the food is staple food. After all, this is a college. Affordability and food are always the themes. Wei Yang is used to the frequent appearance of this kind of delicacies that combine vegetables and rice.

Taking out his cell phone and taking a photo, Wei Yang finished his meal before posting on Weibo, x-on:the school, thanking his classmates for their enthusiastic recommendation and commenting on the taste.

The roast goose is the most delicious, followed by the peppercorn chicken. The pie tastes very refreshing. I will buy it again next time I have the opportunity.

At this time, when many students had participated in the road show and were actively sharing Reuters and photos online, they were even more happy when they saw Wei Yang's Weibo.

Some claimed that the Pepper Chicken was recommended by them; some were happy to agree with Boss Wei, some showed off by posting pictures of Wei Yang's favorite roast goose and other delicacies, describing how delicious they were to tempt passers-by; still others replaced others who were not selected. The food is regrettable......

Although the content is varied, the impression of Boss Wei is surprisingly good, as if everyone has become one of their own through delicious food.

"You are still the culprit. Once you post this on Weibo, it will win the hearts of all the people. If you look back, the students will not complain and contribute to your box office."

Fan Xiaopang, who also saw Weibo, called Wei Yang and analyzed the meaning of Boss Wei's move.

"If you don't know how to chat, don't chat. I'm exchanging sincerity for sincerity."

Boss Wei was a bit embarrassed. Although he did have some thoughts, he shouldn't say it so straightforwardly.

"Yes Yes Yes."

Fan Xiaopang didn't talk to him anymore, but brought up another matter: "Have you seen Weibo? "Legend of the Gods" has been released."

"You don't have to look at Weibo. As soon as they make a move, someone will notify me. I knew it even before the official announcement was made two days ago."

"Is this coming for you?"

"Eighty percent yes."

Wei Yang sneered slightly. The entire entertainment industry knew that this "Legend of the Gods" was a movie for the Xiang family and his wife to praise their son.

And he had not been happy with the Xiang family because of the Xing Ye incident.

This time, "Legend of the Gods" was originally scheduled for early August, but suddenly mentioned July 9th, which is only one day away from "Wushuang". No matter how you look at it, it looks like it's coming from a bad person.

"Will it affect us?"

There was a hint of worry in Fan Xiaopang's words. There was nothing I could do about it. The show was so strong that it could be said to be the most luxurious in this summer's season.

Jet Li, who has been semi-retired for the past few years and only filmed Hollywood's "Suicide Squad" series, is back in action.

Huang Xiaoming and his wife, Wen Zhang and Xu Qing gave their full support, and many backbones in the Hong Kong circle also came, such as Principal Gu, Tony Leung Ka Fai, Chen Xiaochun, On Zhijie, and even more impressive, Zhang Yunu, who had "returned to the old good" with Xiang Tai, was brought in to serve as Daji. .

The investment for such a luxurious lineup is also very huge. It is said that the cost is around 500 million. Even if there is moisture, the remaining amount must not be a fraction.

Coupled with the great influence of the Fengshen IP, the box office data of Journey to the West IP in Hong Kong in the past two years have been good. The box office of "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" and "Journey to the West: Three Fighting the White Bone Demon" both exceeded 1 billion.

With both a mythical theme and a luxurious lineup, this "Legend of the Gods" is naturally favored by people.

If the schedules weren't far apart, it might have replaced Cheng Long's "Escape" and become the biggest rival of "Wushuang".

Under all the halo, Fan Xiaopang is inevitably affected. She still has confidence in "Wushuang" and Wei Yang, but she is afraid of being diverted from the box office.

"These people are really disgusting, aren't you afraid that both sides will suffer?"

"Both sides suffer?"

When Wei Yang heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. There was more than one person who had the same idea as Fan Xiaopang, and the publicity team had already begun to formulate relevant plans for it.

But only Boss Wei calmly ignored it after hearing the news.

Others don't know, but he doesn't know that "Legend of the Gods" is a bad movie that can be recorded in the history of Chinese film.

Let’s put it this way, when this film came out, it almost ruined [Fengshen IP].

"Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" has a nondescript name, and no one dares to have anything to do with it.

Thanks to Wu'er's good fortune and a good time, the quality of "Feng Shen" is also acceptable, otherwise he would be implicated in this movie.

Seeing Boss Wei's confidence, Fan Xiaopang felt that he underestimated the enemy.

"That's a 500 million big production."

"Pull him down. If you have half of them, it's the conscience of these people."

Many actors were either paid friendly prices or made free guest appearances, saving who knows how much in salary. The costumes were also extremely weird, and the special effects, which were important investments, were surprisingly bad.

Wei Yang sometimes strongly doubts whether the show is trying to flatter his son or whether there is some deal behind it.

It's really bad. All the other big online movies are better than this one...

Fan Xiaopang was still talking: "There are also big names like Li Lianjie, Huang Xiaoming, Wen Zhang, and Principal Gu."

"How many people are there to handle the box office?"

What Wei Yang said was a bit crazy, but it also left Fan Xiaopang speechless.

Indeed, no matter how smart these people are, there are really not many who can handle the box office.

Principal Gu has not yet grown into a pillar in the Hong Kong scene, and even later, his box office appeal was not that high.

The highest box office is only over 1 billion, and there is only one film with a box office of over 1 billion. The main audience is around crime lovers and Hong Kong film fans. With its large output and personal brand, it is popular among the public, and it can be regarded as the first echelon of movie actors.

The current Principal Gu is still rising. Although he is already one of the leading figures in the Mesozoic Era, he is not yet the leader.

Huang Xiaoming and Wen Zhang are not as good as Principal Gu.

The former is not famous for his box office. He has good movies but also bad ones. His reputation and personal appeal are low among the young actors in the mainland.

The latter has not yet come out of the low tide of "See you on Monday". This time, it is more like his godfather helping him find a way out.

Jet Li is the only one who is confident that he can carry the box office, but his actual performance is also up and down, not to mention that he is out of fashion now.

As the hottest box office star in the current film industry, he has a great psychological advantage over Cheng Long, who has not yet fallen, not to mention that Jet Li is no longer as good as he used to be.

Because of the influence of Wei Yang, Fan Xiaopang did not mix with the Hong Kong circle. If he had participated in this movie like in his previous life, he would not have had any worries at all.

"Actually, this is good. At least I can face them head-on. It's time to punch the nursing home."

Wei Yang had some regrets before. When Cheng Long and Jet Li were active in the film industry, he had not yet made his debut. When he started to rise, the two of them had also started to get old and their output was not as good as before.

This summer season gave Wei Yang a chance to make up for his regrets, and he faced off against Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, the two heroes of the film industry.

Although it was an older version, the black-hearted boss Wei sometimes liked to do such immoral things to bully old men.

These two are too strong in their peak period. Even if he is not afraid, it is easy for both sides to lose. It is so good to win and win easily like this...

"Tsk tsk, the bad guy is almost smoking. Stay away from my son in the future and don't teach him bad things."

Fan Xiaopang looked at Boss Wei with disdain, and the latter didn't care: "What's wrong with being a bad guy? Sometimes, 'bad guys' live successfully and freely. Besides, I don't respect the elderly. When you bullied Tang Yan, you didn't love the young. Let our son admit his bad luck. Who made him have to deal with us two?"

After being said by Wei Yang, Fan Xiaopang actually nodded: "What you said makes sense. It is better to bully others than to be bullied by others."

"Uh, you can't bully others intentionally..."

Wei Yang was afraid that this woman would really teach his son to be a playboy and a bad seed, so he quickly went back to make up for it.

Fat Yu, who was far away in Beijing and participated in the investment and distribution of "Legend of the Gods" by Bona, also expressed his concerns.

"Boss Xiang, Madam Xiang, you haven't worked with Wei Yang before. I know how powerful this guy is. It's really not a good idea to choose to compete with Wushuang."

"Boss Yu, you worry too much."

Madam Xiang touched the big gem ring on her hand, and her voice was also full of confidence: "We have a bunch of people like Lianjie, Baizhi, Xiaoming, and Tianle, and we have invested so much money. It's easy to deal with Wei Yang."

Don't worry, I have the advantage!"
