Chapter 774 Pest Control

"You said before that this movie will be very different from ordinary superhero movies. Can you tell us more about it?"

In the conference room where the interview was held, reporters from China Film and Television Entertainment took the lead in asking Luo Quan questions.

Luo Quan replied with a smile: "Probably this movie won't have too many fighting and special effects scenes, and there won't even be any superheroes. The only protagonist is the clown."

"But if this is the case, can it still be called a superhero movie?"

“Of course not, because this is the story of the supervillain Joker and why he became the Joker.

Of course, some settings will be different from those in the DC superhero universe, and it can be regarded as a parallel world. "

"So after this movie is aired, will your version of the Joker appear in subsequent superhero movies?"

Immediately, a reporter asked this question. This is actually a matter of great concern to DC fans at home and abroad.

In this era, everything can be combined into CP, not to mention Bateman and the Joker, two enemies who already have a love-hate relationship.

If a super villain like the Joker transforms into a beautiful woman like Luo Quan, it will definitely add an unprecedented new dimension to the monotonous battle between good and evil.

Although superhero fans don’t like to watch superheroes fall in love, they just want to watch them defeat their enemies with cool special effects, providing everyone with a refreshing visual feast.

However, specific situations require detailed analysis.

If it were played by Luo Quan, it would definitely be very interesting.

Therefore, DC fans are still looking forward to her female version of the Joker having exciting rivalry with Batman in subsequent Batman movies.

"There is no plan yet. DC currently has many plans, and "Joker" is just an independent project. When I first got it, I was told that I would not see any follow-up.

So fans can regard this movie as a side story that has nothing to do with the main line of the DC universe. "

Luo Quan gave an answer that disappointed fans, but it is true.

DC asked her to film this film just to make some money by using her name. As for the follow-up, they have to wait for the results of the movie to be aired before making any plans.

"Excuse me, why did you choose to shoot "Joker" in China this time? Logically speaking, this movie should be shot in the United States. After all, Gotham is based on New York City."

"I actually mentioned this issue on Twitter before." Luo Quan smiled helplessly: "Actually, it is for safety reasons. Now protests, shootings, and zero-dollar shopping are frequent in the United States, and many crews have stopped production directly. .

If you want to finish filming the movie without being affected, Huaxia is the best choice. "

"But wasn't it said before that "Forrest Gump" changed the entire American society? But why did it end up like this?"

A reporter wearing glasses asked a question that was quite specific to Luo Quan.

In order to build momentum for the marketing of "Forrest Gump", it was said that it changed a chaotic society, promoted harmony, and caused the stock price to rise.

It is as if it is a panacea for American social problems that can be cured as soon as it is released.

Although it was first released, social problems have indeed been significantly improved.

But it didn't last forever. Within a month, everything was business as usual.

However, no one abroad would be stupid enough to think that this is a problem with the movie. At most, they would complain that the movie is too short-lived.

Of course, the words used in previous marketing campaigns were indeed exaggerated. Now

You have to admit it even if it's backfired.

“I don’t think the problems in American society can be solved by making a movie.

The slogan of "Forrest Gump" did say that it would have some positive impact on society, and it did indeed do so.

But you can't expect its influence to last forever.

Just like a song, no matter how good it sounds, it will always make people tired of listening to it; no matter how philosophical a sentence is, it will always make people feel bored.

No amount of movies will help without addressing the root of the problem.

And this conclusion can also be applied to the "Joker" I am filming. Its plot will make people who know little about movies find it very provocative. It may even increase the crime rate after the movie is released.

But what I want to say is that movies are movies. Its essence is to help people escape reality and reflect reality at the same time. But the last attribute it should have is to be responsible for reality. "

After a long speech, Luo Quan explained his point of view very clearly.

To sum it up: She just makes movies, so how can she have the ability to have a permanent impact on society?

If I really want to have such an effect, I'm afraid she would have to appear on camera and do something unprecedented.

After listening to Luo Quan's explanation, the reporter knew that he was being unreasonable.

However, Luo Quan did not show any expression of dissatisfaction.

Entertainment reporters want to stir up excitement through such sharp topics, and the questions they ask are not offensive, so Luo Quan answered calmly.

Like many entertainment reporters nowadays, they will ask questions that irritate celebrities, and then take pictures of them losing their temper or swearing, and then their traffic performance will be achieved.

However, Luo Quan has never encountered such a blue reporter so far.

On the one hand, she has no dark history for reporters to mention.

On the other hand, it might be that the reporters were afraid of what would happen if Luo Quan got really anxious and took action.

If it were an ordinary celebrity, it would be enough to be beaten. Even if a celebrity hits someone, the heat caused by the beating will be higher, and he will not suffer any injuries.

But Luo Quan is different. Many criminals have experienced her fighting power, but few can survive a move in her hands. Moreover, the final outcome is basically being carried directly to the ICU by an ambulance. .

So for the sake of her own life, reporters usually don't offend her too much by asking questions.

The interview ends here. The movie has just started shooting, so there is only so much that can be revealed.

If you want to know more details, you can only wait for the final press conference in a month.

After sending the reporters away, the studio started working immediately.

Unlike other movies, the plot of Joker is determined by the order of filming.

The order in which most movies are shot is different from the sequence in which the movie is finally edited.

Because there is a lot of material to shoot for a movie, it may take six or seven hours of shooting, but the final cut is only two hours long.

No one, including the director himself, has a clear idea of ​​what the final edited film will look like.

But Luo Quan knew.

This is why outsiders say she has a world in her mind.

Her movies are all conceived in her mind, and all she needs to do is shoot them step by step, which is simple and hassle-free.

For those who have not witnessed the filming scene in Luo Quan, they may not be able to imagine that the movie can be shot like this.

It seems that every shot and every plot is completely natural. The photographers only need to turn on and off the machine according to Luo Quan's knowledge, and the actors only need to play their roles according to Luo Quan's instructions.

What was then filmed will not be much different from what was finally released.

And those employees who have worked with Luo Quan many times are no longer surprised by this magical situation.

After all, she is Luo Quan, Luo Quan who can always create miracles and make the impossible possible.

After the filming of the movie started, Luo Quan originally thought that it would not be affected at all. After all, she had already explained all her personal matters.

But the next day, she still had to temporarily stop filming her part and had to ask the assistant director to take the crew to shoot the location.

The actual cause was not her problem. The main reason was that in the morning, a celebrity was caught smuggling illegal drugs from abroad.

The artist confessed to his crime and faces a year in prison.

This artist is also the lead singer of a well-known band in China. Before the accident, his reputation was very good, and there was no negative news.

After being caught, all her past was revealed.

It turned out that before she was arrested this time, she had already been in jail for eight months. She committed another crime less than a year after she came out. She can be said to be a habitual offender.

Moreover, this time it is related to illegal drugs, which are very serious in nature. The higher-ups have always had zero tolerance in this regard. If you stick to it even a little, don't think about appearing in the eyes of the public again.

Originally, he was caught and sentenced to serve as a warning and the matter would be over.

But the artist's dirty deeds behind his back seemed to remind the higher-ups.

Many people would never have thought it was so serious before the scandal came out.

In the entertainment industry, everyone is glamorous, but the colors behind the scenes are probably darker than the deep sea 10,000 meters below.

At this juncture, this artist gave the higher-ups a warning.

Don't think that reducing exposure will work, you have to do some research and testing.

So, the investigation began.

From now on, stars in the entertainment industry must report at points set up in the four major cities of Shanghai, Jingcheng, Jiangnan, and Yuezhou, and all physical examinations must be completed within seven days.

You can continue to be an artist only after you get your health certificate, otherwise you won't be able to appear on the Internet again.

If there is a problem, the entire network will be immediately blocked.

It sounds like it's to check your health, but everyone knows what the real plan is.

As long as you have touched illegal drugs, you can be found out even after a year.

And if you touch this kind of thing once, it is basically impossible to quit it in a short time, and it will definitely be exposed during the inspection.

Therefore, netizens call this physical examination the "Pest Control Plan", and they can finally clean up the pests in the entertainment industry.

I’ve heard before that the entertainment industry is a hot spot for contraband, and from time to time you can indeed see artists being banned for touching this stuff.

But the number is actually relatively limited, and most of them are not found out by inspection, but people around them break the news.

Now that the higher authorities have unified requirements for physical examination, it is not easy to pass the test.

You can imagine how lively the Chinese entertainment industry will be after the results of the physical examination come out. There will definitely be no shortage of fans who collapsed that day.

As for Luo Quan, he seemed a little helpless.

A comprehensive physical examination must include a set of various items.

Blood draws, CT scans, B-ultrasounds, etc. are all fine, but gastroscopy and colonoscopy are really torture.

Especially she doesn't like the fact that anesthesia is painless.

The last time I had sex in the United States, I felt hot and uncomfortable for the whole day.

And you have to drink water and take laxatives before doing it.

In short, physical examination is definitely a good thing, but she really doesn't like the process of physical examination.

Moreover, the results of the last physical examination did not reveal anything wrong. His body was as strong as a cow. This examination may be different. After all, he had just taken diet pills and lost several dozen pounds.

It would be difficult for the doctor to not think of anything suspicious once he did the examination.

After all, no normal person could lose so many pounds in half a month.

Either he is seriously ill or there are some other reasons.

This time, the doctor focused on investigating this.

Of course, she was actually very calm in her heart and acted and sat upright.

The main reason is that I am afraid that there will be any misunderstandings and delay the filming of the movie here.

But the policy has come down, and it’s impossible not to abide by it.

After Luo Quan finished filming the movie at noon, he went directly to the designated public security bureau to sign up.

Wen Xia and Su Yu were also filming in Hengdian at this time, so the three girls went to the Public Security Department together.

In the conference room where I signed up, it can be said to be a gathering of stars.

Hengdian can be said to be the place with the highest concentration of Chinese entertainment stars. You can meet those in the first, second and third tiers at any time.

As soon as the request for physical examination was issued, most celebrities in Hengdian immediately chose to respond positively.

There is no way not to be active. If you don't check for seven days, you will be semi-banned. Who can withstand this? You have to put aside big things and get your body checked first.

In the conference room, most celebrities were chatting and laughing, treating this physical examination as a social gathering. After all, there is usually no such a good opportunity to bring so many big stars together.

In the corner of the conference room, you can also see several artists with sad faces, looking worried.

They didn't know what happened that caused them to be so nervous. Those big dark circles under their eyes were obviously from a sleepless night. They hoped that the anesthetic during the colonoscopy could help relieve their stress.

"Luobao, what does this gastroscopy and colonoscopy feel like? I heard it will be very painful."

Wen Xia asked anxiously.

Although she is in her twenties, Wen Xia has never had such a comprehensive physical examination. The examination before the college entrance examination was the most comprehensive physical examination she had ever done, and it was just a blood test and a CT scan.

I checked online last night and heard that colonoscopy can be a bit painful and that such a big tube goes in, which makes me scared just thinking about it.

"Actually, it's not that painful. It's definitely uncomfortable, but it's probably not as good as menstruation. If you're afraid, you can take an anesthetic."

Luo Quan held the ID card in his hand and rubbed it, while he was scrolling through his phone with the other hand.

Su Yu pressed Wen Xia's shoulder and comforted him: "Relax, it's just a simple inspection and it will be over soon."

"I'm not nervous, I just haven't experienced this, so..."

Wen Xia didn't finish speaking. In fact, she was still nervous.

But there were many celebrities more nervous than her in the conference room.

Not even nervous, but anxious.
