The premiere of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" was set to be held on January 28th at Jibei TV Station. Shaanxi TV Station would also broadcast the entire event live.
In the past few days, the crew of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" had launched an overwhelming amount of publicity. The internet, magazines, newspapers, and television were all over the place.
As the female lead, Zhao Wanqing naturally had to be part of the publicity team. For a week, she participated in four variety shows and flew back and forth to five big cities, which made her suffer unspeakably. Every night, she would call Xiao Yunhai to complain.
As the investor and the original author, Wu Zixu originally wanted to let Xiao Yunhai participate in the publicity, but Xiao Yunhai rejected Wu Zixu's request with the reason of preparing for "Langya List". However, in the end, he still participated in a variety show with the crew of Shaanxi TV Station.
At 20 pm on January 28th, the premiere of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" was held by Jibei TV Station and Shaanxi TV Station.
As the top director in the film industry, Wu Zixu's reputation was very big. There was an endless stream of celebrities who came to the premiere of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer". Huang Qiusheng, Wang Guoan, Sun Yanjun, Yu Yuexian, Wu Jun, Zhang Hong, Lee Hoon, and other award-winning actors and actresses were all there. As for the other A-list and B-list celebrities, there were even more.
The premiere of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" was also very lively. It was co-hosted by the hosts of the two TV Stations.
Xiao Yunhai even went on stage to sing the theme song of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", "The Sea's Laughter". That bleak and bold voice caused the audience to applaud for a long time.
What made everyone flabbergasted the most was the short trailer that Wu Zixu had cut. There was a part of Xiao Yunhai's role as Dongfang Bubai.
Looking at the coquettish and domineering Xiao Yunhai on the TV, everyone at the scene whispered and looked at Xiao Yunhai from time to time.
Huang Qiusheng chuckled and said, "I didn't expect our calm and reserved senior brother to have such a side. Not bad, not bad at all. Hahaha. "
Xiao Yunhai sighed and said, "It's really a single slip that leads to everlasting regret."
After attending the premiere of 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer', Xiao Yunhai brought the art director Wang Tianming to Hengdian Film City the next afternoon to check on the set of 'Lang Ya Board'.
Three days ago, the script of "Langya's List" had been completely revised. In order to allow history and legend to coexist, Xiao Yunhai and the scriptwriters had a serious discussion and analysis. They had done quite a big surgery on it and added a lot of content. Naturally, the number of characters had also increased by a lot.
The original 55 episodes of "Langya Board" had been increased to 65 episodes. Naturally, the budget had to be recalculated.
As for the 1,200 sets of clothes, Haoyu Apparel only took five days to complete them. Xiao Yunhai hired more than 20 trucks to transport the clothes to Hengdian.
On the plane, Wang Tianming asked, "Director Xiao, just the costumes alone cost the crew more than 20 million yuan. How much is the budget for our TV series?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "The production director, Wang Side, gave me a budget of 840 million yuan. However, I think it might be too little. I prepared 1 billion yuan. If it's not enough, I'll add more. I won't give up until I make this TV series a success. "
Wang Tianming was a proud and arrogant fellow, but at this moment, he couldn't help but feel respect for Xiao Yunhai. This was a real film and television industry worker.
Xiao Yunhai looked at the script in Wang Tianming's hands and said, "Teacher Wang, do you think there are any problems with the new script?"
Wang Tianming said, "Compared to the first script, this one is obviously more reasonable. I've read it a few times and didn't find any loopholes. However, isn't the main character a little too monstrous? He's just a person from the underworld, but he can play those officials who have been in the bureaucracy for decades. Isn't that a little too legendary? "
Xiao Yunhai laughed heartily and said, "Teacher Wang, this is a legendary drama to begin with. If you want the audience to buy it, you have to make them feel good. Mei Changsu is a weak scholar who doesn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. However, he can command the heroes of the underworld. At the same time, he can devise strategies. In the imperial court, he can turn the tides and bring down those arrogant fellows. With this kind of strong contrast, let alone the audience, even I felt very good. This is the most important point for our TV series to succeed. If we make him an ordinary person with an average IQ, Teacher Wang, do you think the audience will still have a sense of anticipation? "
Wang Tianming thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense. When I read the script, every time I saw Mei Changsu use schemes to bring down a big shot, I would feel very excited. I have to admit that Mei Changsu's character gives people a strong sense of immersion. After watching it, people can't help but be attracted to him. Haha, Director Xiao, it's been hard on you. You must have suffered a lot to play this role. "
Xiao Yunhai touched his rapidly thinning face and said, "How can I not suffer? I'm a martial artist. In the past, I could eat at least six pounds of beef for a meal. But now, let alone beef, I don't even dare to eat anything with oil. Fortunately, the effect is good. After ten days, I lost fifteen pounds. With my skinny body, there shouldn't be a problem for me to play Mei Changsu. "
Wang Tianming laughed and said, "I've always heard from my old friends that although you're young, your acting skills don't lose to any award-winning actor. Next, let these old bones of mine have a good fight with you. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "When I was filming 'Empresses in the Palace', I wanted to set a standard for the actors. The first scene I filmed was the final confrontation between Yu Yuexian and Zhao Wanqing. After passing it in one shot, all the actors didn't dare to relax anymore. "
"Teacher Wang, why don't the two of us set a standard for the 'Langya List' this time? I want to promote our final confrontation scene to the first scene. What do you think? "
When Wang Tianming heard it, his whole body trembled. An indescribable excitement rose from the bottom of his heart and he said, "No problem. It's settled."
Xiao Yunhai said, "After the press conference, I'll gather all the actors to watch this scene together. Teacher Wang, if we mess it up, the two of us will lose a lot of face. "
Wang Tianming said, "As long as Director Xiao doesn't have a problem, there won't be a problem with me."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then there won't be a problem."
The two of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Fortunately, there weren't many passengers in the first-class cabin. If they were in the ordinary cabin, they would have been condemned by everyone.
At eleven o 'clock in the morning, the plane landed steadily at Hengdian Airport.
Wang Wei and Huang Bo came to pick them up. When they saw Xiao Yunhai and Wang Tianming, they hurried to greet them.
First, they greeted Wang Tianming. Then, Huang Bo looked at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Third Brother, why didn't I notice that you've lost so much weight yesterday? You need to control yourself at night. If you continue like this, you'll die from excessive ejaculation. "
Huang Bo's words made Wang Tianming and Wang Wei burst out in laughter.
Xiao Yunhai flicked Huang Bo's head and said unhappily, "You brat, you can't say anything good. For the role of Mei Changsu, I even gave up meat. Do you think it's easy for me? Why am I a pervert in your mouth? Also, you're early. We even attended the premiere of 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer' last night. Why are you here so early today? "
Huang Bo touched his head and laughed, "I came here directly from Hebei at five o 'clock in the morning. Of course I'm early. Hehe, Third Brother, you really don't eat meat? Aiya, just thinking about it makes me feel sorry for you. "
Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and said, "Don't talk nonsense. It's three o 'clock in the afternoon. Let's go directly to Hengdian Film City. We'll officially start filming on February 1st. I'm here to see the results of everyone's work. "
When Wang Wei heard this, he said confidently, "Senior, I guarantee that you'll be satisfied."
