Chapter 205 Teacher Six: I Want to Bloom

The first-day box office of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" was three million more than that of "Lost in Thailand".

This is a very dangerous signal.

Xu Zheng looked for Zhou Mo, seeking psychological comfort.

"Director Zhou, Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons had such a huge box office on its first day, Lost in Thailand is going to lose."

Zhou Mo looked at Xu Zheng with a half-smile: "Brother Zheng, didn't you say before that you didn't plan to compete for the Spring Festival box office champion? As long as the return on investment exceeds Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons, you'll win. Just from the first day box office, Lost in Thailand has already won."

Xu Zheng touched his bald head and laughed.

“Director Zhou, please stop insulting me. It’s true that I wasn’t very smart before… But since the performance gap between Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons and Lost in Thailand is not that big, it’s not hopeless to win first place. If Lost in Thailand can win, you’ll be proud, right?”

Huang Bo also echoed: "Yes, Director Zhou, it doesn't really matter whether Lost in Thailand ranks first or not. What's important is that we can't let your reputation as the 'magician' suffer any damage."

Seeing this, Zhou Mo stopped keeping the secret.

He gave a dose of calming medicine to the people in front of him.

"Don't worry, this is only the first day, there is still a long time to go."

Wang Baobao suddenly asked, "Director Zhou, how are you going to promote it?"

Zhou Mo shook his head.

“It’s not me who promotes it.”

"Who is that?"

"Teacher Six."

"Sixth teacher?"

The three members of the "Lost in Thailand" group shouted Teacher Zhang's name in unison, and then looked at each other.

Yesterday alone, they had witnessed the fighting power of Teacher Liu.

In order to criticize "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", he sent twelve messages in a row to denounce Stephen Chow for making blind movies.

He also appeared on a show that afternoon, saying that classics cannot be adapted.

I didn't expect it wasn't over yet.

……

That afternoon.

Teacher Liu really started his own actions.

He held a film press conference.

At the meeting.

Teacher Liu started with "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" first.

This time, in addition to accusing Zhou Xingxing himself of "tampering with classics", another point was emphasized.

“Can Sun Wukong fall in love?
Sun Wukong can’t fall in love!
I actually talked about this issue a few years ago, and later some people changed it, but not completely.

This time he really didn't let Sun Wukong fall in love, and instead let Tang Seng fall in love.

Can Tang Monk fall in love?
also can not!
I suggest that some people read my advice and improve their thinking..."

I can only say that Teacher Liu is worthy of being Teacher Liu. In his research on "Journey to the West", he always comes up with eye-opening viewpoints.

After criticizing "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", Teacher Liu finally brought the topic to the focus of today's press conference -

he.

Teacher Six.

We're going to make a movie.

"In the second half of this year, the Sino-US co-production Journey to the West will officially start filming. I will continue to play the Monkey King Sun Wukong. I will use the artistic image of the Monkey King to let the audience feel the artistic connotation of Journey to the West again..."

Teacher Liu is going to film Journey to the West!

Still the original crew!

A group of reporters were excited when they heard the news.

Movie version of "Journey to the West".

This feeling.

This audience.

If this movie were to really be made, I can’t even imagine how high the box office would be!
That night, when the news was announced, the entire entertainment industry exploded.

Even though there is no content about the movie version number.

Although there is no news about the production company.

Even though there was no movement from the crew.

Although there is no news about the director.

But the entire entertainment industry is still on the alert.

They all asked for relevant information.

See if there is a chance to play a major role in a movie.

As for the crew, version number, company news and so on, if there is none, then there is none.

The person who suggested making a movie was Teacher Liu.

An artist with both moral integrity and artistic talent.

The designated No. 1 in the country is Sun Wukong.

Will he go back on his word?

Certainly not.

.......
Shanhe Company.

Zhou Mo was watching the show happily.

At this point in 2013, "Journey to the West" + Teacher Liu is a complete king bomb.

If Stephen Chow is the memory of a generation.

Those six teachers are the childhood of n generations.

Who hasn’t watched the 86 version of Journey to the West on TV as a child?

With just 25 episodes of the main story and 16 episodes of the sequel, a total of more than 40 episodes, "Journey to the West" is the childhood memory of many people.

So, when Teacher Liu publicly "criticized" a movie and said that he would make a real "Journey to the West", Stephen Chow tasted the feeling of being attacked by sentimental fans for the first time.

Zhou Mo looked at the content on the Internet about the fans of Stephen Chow and Teacher Liu... no, it should be said that it was the fans of the 86 version of "Journey to the West" quarreling with each other.

Hungry.

Six fans: "What a rubbish movie "Exorcist" is. When did "Journey to the West" have a love story?"

Zhou Fan: "It's as if you don't have any love factor? What about the Country of Daughters?"

Six fans: "I don't care. If you don't follow the original, you are destroying the classic."

Zhou Fan: "Damn, you're talking as if you guys just followed the original novel. Besides, Director Yang hasn't said anything yet, what are you yelling about?" Sixth Fan: "You're getting impatient, you're getting impatient, and you're trying to change the subject when you can't win the argument, Monkey Brother! Monkey Brother!"

Zhou Fan: "Hurry nm, you don't understand Zhizunbao's love."

Sixth fan: "What a joke! How dare you call yourself the Monkey King when you have such a pointed face and monkey cheeks?"

Any debate will eventually turn into a fight.

Zhou Xingxing probably didn’t expect this either.

In the past, whenever he competed with others, it was his sentimental fans who beat others.

But this time, he really didn't do it.

It’s not so much that he has never worked for Teacher Liu.

It’s better to say that this time, he failed to defeat the brave and fearless monkey in the minds of the Chinese people.

Although he also played a monkey.

And he acted very well.

But again, the emotions brought by movies and TV series are not at the same level at all.

Zhou Mo received a call.

Tang Yan called.

This person also came here to inquire about the news.

"You also want to film Journey to the West. No, can't you use your brain to think about it? Let's not talk about whether this movie version of Journey to the West will happen or not. Even if it is really filmed, the most likely one is Havoc in Heaven. Do you think there is a role suitable for you in it?
What? You mean Guanyin? Why don’t you say you play the Queen Mother…

You think these two are okay?

Tangtang, I think you are really getting carried away. I suggest you tell this suggestion to Fan Qiaoqiao, and then you two can have another fight..."

Hang up.

Zhou Mo sighed.

He thought these people were crazy.

Tang Yan was not the first person to call him.

In just half a day, no less than five people tried to get news from him.

Especially these little girls.

Liu Yifei wanted to ask Chang'e.

Liu Shishi also wanted to ask Chang'e.

Zhou Mo directly told the two people that Chang'e did not recommend it, but they could try the rabbit spirit.

Even Yang Mi called him.

Said he could try to be the King of the Kingdom of Women.

After hearing this, Zhou Mo hung up the phone.

joke.

The King of the Kingdom of Women.

Anyone else who plays this role except Zhu Lin will be doomed.

In his previous life, Zhao Xiaodao was scolded badly after playing the role of the King of the Kingdom of Women.

Think of this.

Zhou Mo glanced at Da Tiantian beside him and asked.

"Tiantian, don't tell me you also want to play the role of the King of the Kingdom of Women."

Da Tiantian shook her head.

"No, the role of the King of the Kingdom of Women is too demanding on appearance and acting skills. I don't have the ability or the qualifications."

She thought of the fact that Zhu Lin was already 33 years old when he played the Queen of the Kingdom of Women, but he still had that appearance and that charm.

tsk...

"It would be great if Teacher Zhu Lin could play the role of the King of the Kingdom of Women again..."

Zhou Mo pinched Da Tiantian's nose and woke her up from her fantasy.

"Okay, stop dreaming. Not to mention that Ms. Zhu Lin is definitely not suitable to play the role of the Queen of the Kingdom of Women at her current age, even if she can play the role, you have to consider whether the movie can really be made."

Da Tiantian was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "You mean, what Teacher Liu said about Journey to the West this time is fake news?"

After saying this, her face looked a little strange.

"Although there are a lot of fake publicity in the industry, but Mr. Liu... it's unlikely. He is an old artist with both virtue and talent."

Zhou Mo thought for a while and said: "Don't underestimate the so-called old artists. Old artists are also human beings and have conflicts of interest. Otherwise, what do you think was the conflict between him and Ms. Yang, the director of Journey to the West?

Besides, Mr. Liu may not be lying. My personal opinion is that he does want to make a movie version of Journey to the West, but wanting to make a movie and being able to make a movie are two different things. "

Da Tiantian searched the Internet for some old stories about Teacher Liu and Director Yang.

After watching it, I just felt a little bit unacceptable.

"So, old artists... no, the older generation also have these disputes? I originally thought that these were only gradually appearing in the entertainment industry after the millennium."

"You are surprised by what you have seen. You think the older generation is good, but it's not because they are really good. It's just that the Internet was not well developed at that time and the news didn't spread."

Zhou Mo casually picked out a few examples for Da Tiantian, which made Da Tiantian stunned and felt as if her cognition was shattered.

When Da Tiantian came to her senses, she found that she was calling the person in charge of the station.

"That's right, let's give Zhou Xingxing some more explosive news... Yes, let's compete with him, and add fuel to the fire for his and Teacher Liu's fans..."

Hang up.

Da Tiantian was a little confused: "You just asked the station to promote Zhou Xingxing's Zhizunbao?"

Zhou Mo nodded.

"The situation of the monkey war online is a bit unbalanced now. There are too many fans of 86 Journey to the West, so there is not enough space for Zhou Xingxing. I am going to help Zhou Xingxing and help him promote Zhizunbao again, which will at least give Zhou Xingxing a chance to breathe."

"You really feel uncomfortable if you don't stir up trouble." Da Tiantian complained: "But won't this increase the exposure of Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons? Logically speaking, Teacher Liu's move is enough to cause a sharp drop in the single-day box office of Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons, but if you increase the popularity, will it increase the box office again?"

"Not very likely."

Zhou Mo introduced the publicity direction to Da Tiantian.

"Next, you will see the rhythm on the Internet that if Zhou Xingxing wants to gain support, he must be on stage in person. The audience only wants to see the Monkey King fight the Supreme Treasure. As for other things, the audience will not accept it."

Da Tiantian understood.

"Although it seems that you have given a boost to Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons, but does Stephen Chow's Monkey King appear in Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons? So, the result after the publicity is that either Stephen Chow's fans will rise for a while and then be suppressed again, or Stephen Chow will make a great effort and really play the Monkey King."

Zhou Mo: "That's a correct answer, but the second result is impossible, because Zhou Xingxing can't possibly leave now."

"why?"

That afternoon, Da Tiantian saw the news on the Internet, "There is a lot of support for Zhou Xingxing to play the monkey again. In addition to the rhythm we set, even many of his own fans want him to play the role...

With all these calls, are you sure that Stephen Chow won't act?"
