Chapter 464: Special Identity Press Conference
Deep city.

The filming locations of the movie "Special Identity" include many iconic places in Shenzhen, such as Shuiwei Village, Shenzhen Bay Street, Tianli City, OCT East, Maluan Mountain area, etc.

In addition, some scenes of the film will be shot and filmed in the capital later.

The crew of "Special Identity".

"After arriving in the mainland, Chen Zilong (played by Zhao Wenzhuo) and Sunny (played by Wu Jing) are hunted by a mysterious killer named "Blade" (played by Zhang Jin). Chen Zilong is in an extremely dangerous situation and can no longer control his life or death.

In the end, the male protagonist's identity was exposed. Chen Zilong first fought a fierce battle with Datou Xiong (Zou Zhaolong). After defeating Datou Xiong, he fought with Sunny. Then, with the help of the female protagonist Fang Jing (Jing Tian), he wiped out the criminal gang. "

Lu Zheng and Jing Tian sat on the sofa, listening to assistant director Wu Jing talk about the adapted script of "Special Identity".

After Wu Jing finished speaking, Jing Tian had a blank expression on his face. It was unknown whether he understood or not, and he did not respond.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed when he saw Wuershan, Zhao Wenzhuo, Wu Jing and others in front of him.

If he could do it again, Lu Zheng would definitely not invest in this movie again.

My goodness, the previous "Zhao Zhen dispute" has just ended, and now the assistant director Wu Jing who has joined the crew is thinking about revising the script.

However, the other party gave sufficient reasons. He said that Director Gu wanted to make this movie well, and he also said that Director Gu attached great importance to this movie.

Wuershan next to him looked at Lu Zheng and asked tentatively.

"Mr. Lu, Ms. Jingtian, what do you think?"

"It's alright, right?"

Jing Tian gave a positive answer, but Lu Zheng next to him was a little hesitant: "Director Wu, the story content sounds much better than before, but why is Tian Tian's role getting smaller?"

"Boss Lu, listen to me!

Although Ms. Jingtian's role in the new adaptation of the script has been reduced, the excitement of this character has been increased.

You see, in the original script, the character played by Ms. Jingtian defeated the character of Datou Xiong in a few moves. She was clearly a ruthless character at the beginning, but ended up with such an anticlimactic performance. Not to mention that it was awkward for us to shoot, I guess after the movie is released, the audience will think it is a bad movie. "

Wu Ershan didn't say anything, but glanced at Wu Jing. The other party also reacted and continued speaking.

After talking for a long time, Wu Jing still insisted on his opinion. The original villain of "Special Identity" was suddenly KO in the end, which was a completely inexplicable plot.

Wu Jing has been filming in Hong Kong for quite some time and has played many classic villains. The most classic of them is Tian Yangsheng in "True Man", which is really a handsome role.

Hearing this, Lu Zheng was a little confused. He didn't know how to make movies, but he had no problem judging the basic quality of a script. According to the plot, a few villains caused such a big commotion and behaved abnormally, and it ended in a sloppy way. It was indeed unsatisfactory and had the potential to become a bad movie.

"Ahem, Director Wu, you've been a director before, so changing the script at the last minute like this won't make things difficult for President Lu, right?"

Seeing Lu Zheng hesitant, Wuershan said in a serious tone.

Then he turned to look at Lu Zheng and said, "Mr. Lu, Director Wu only made some suggestions. The final decision is still in your hands. If you think that Miss Jingtian's role is a little small, it doesn't matter. You can reduce the roles of other characters during the filming. I will definitely not let you waste your money."

My goodness! Lu Zheng rolled his eyes after hearing this. You guys have said all the inside and outside things, what should I say?
The air was still at this moment. After Wuershan finished speaking, he looked at Wu Jing. The other party raised his eyebrows at him, and Wuershan responded with an expression that said "stay calm".

Vincent Zhao and Zou Zhaolong were unable to get a word in and could only communicate with their eye contact.

After a while, before Lu Zheng could speak, Jing Tian next to him said, "Uncle Lu, why don't we just shoot it according to what Director Wu said? Otherwise, if the box office is not good after the movie is released, I will be blamed again."

When Wu Jing said that this movie might become a bad movie, Jing Tian reacted. The girl didn't care much about her role or status, but she was particularly sensitive to the word "bad movie".

After all, until now, there are still many posts online discussing her poor acting skills.

"Pfft."

After hearing this, Wu Jing couldn't help laughing on the spot, thinking secretly in his heart, what a straightforward girl.

Zhao Wenzhuo and others were also struggling to hold back their emotions, and a smile appeared on their faces.

Lu Zheng's mouth twitched slightly. "Silly girl, didn't you see these old foxes were working together to perform a double act? Now that you have opened your mouth, how should I continue?"

Fortunately, this movie was invested by myself, otherwise if it were any other crew, they would have taken advantage of you.

"Okay, let's do it this way."

Seeing Lu Zheng nod, Zou Zhaolong and others also laughed.

Wuershan also nodded. Fortunately, he called Jingtian to discuss the matter together, otherwise it might take some effort to convince the financier.

Next, Wu Jing had a heated discussion with Zhao Wenzhuo and Zou Zhaolong regarding the fighting scenes.

“I feel like the villain Sunny isn’t bad enough, not vicious enough.

Director Wu, I suggest that this character be portrayed as someone who betrays his boss, betrays his friends, has a vicious personality, and will start fighting at the slightest disagreement. "

After hearing Wu Jing's suggestion, everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment. My goodness, this matter directly positioned themselves as unforgivable villains.

"Isn't that a bit too much?" This was Zou Zhaolong's first words. "It's okay!" Wu Jing waved his hands carelessly. He was not an actor of the same level as Li Lianjie and Cheng Long. When he reached a certain level, he was influenced by all sides, and it was difficult for him to play a real villain.

For example, Jackie Chan publicly stated in Hollywood that he would not play villains, or even supporting roles, and would only accept roles that were dual male lead roles.

In China, he doesn't care about villains, but a whole family depends on him, and his box office appeal is kung fu + comedy, so playing a villain won't attract people.

.........

Overall, the discussion was a great success.

The previous script was thrown directly into the trash can by Wuershan.

Later, with the assistance of Wu Jing, Zhao Wenzhuo, Zou Zhaolong and others, the new script of "Special Identity" was completed in just three days.

At the end of May, a press conference for "Special Identity" was held in Shenzhen.

At the press conference, character posters of Zhao Wenzhuo, Jing Tian, ​​Wu Jing and others stood on both sides.

On the hastily produced poster, Vincent Zhao is covered in tattoos, with a naked body under his suit and his faintly visible muscles, all of which highlight the excitement of the "fighting" in this movie.

In Wu Jing's poster, his hair is neither too long nor too short, and he wears black sunglasses, giving off a fierce aura.

In Jingtian's poster, he has short hair, looking dashing and capable.

As for one of the villains, Zou Zhaolong, even if he didn't deliberately highlight the temperament of a gangster, the image of a villain comes to mind just by showing his face.

"All villains?" a reporter muttered after seeing the poster.

"No way, isn't the character played by Vincent Zhao a policeman?"

"He's an undercover police officer. Wow, there are some of the best action actors in the mainland. The fighting scenes must be very exciting."

When the director of "Special Identity" and the main creative staff appeared on the scene, there was a cheer. Mainland news and even major media in Southeast Asia rushed to the scene and frantically pressed their shutters.

Wu Ershan, the director of the domestic 600 million box office club, teamed up with action stars Zhao Wenzhuo, Wu Jing, and popular young actress Jing Tian. In terms of the lineup of leading actors, they are in no way inferior to the group of Hong Kong filmmakers headed by Zhen Zidan.

Lu Zheng, who was standing next to him, burst into laughter when he saw this scene.

Just because it is directed by Wu Ershan, who is a member of Xingchen Film and Television Company, "Special Identity" will definitely have a lot of exposure.

Even if the movie loses money in the end, there are these people leading the way, plus Gu Wei's promise to be the heroine of the movie.

This time Jingtian will definitely get a lot of exposure, and it will be even more perfect if the box office is better.

As for Xingchen Films taking over the share left by the Hong Kong investors, Lu Zheng believes that there are many conveniences. At least in terms of publicity and post-production scheduling, with the cooperation of Gu Wei and Ye Ning, they have already gained a great advantage.

"Director Wu is one of the best commercial film directors in the mainland. I feel relieved that he will direct this movie. (Smile)"

“Yes, being able to work with Director Wu, Brother Wenzhuo, Brother Wu Jing, and Brother Zhaolong this time is, in a sense, a personal dream come true for me.

After all, I grew up watching the movies and TV series they starred in.”

At the press conference, Jing Tian said with a sweet smile.

"The process of directing this film was very simple. Director Gu asked me to do it, so I did it."

"I always say the same thing, I don't care about villains or heroes, but it depends on the script and other factors. If it's the right time and a good role, I will take it." Wu Jing said while holding the microphone.

"Will I work with Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan and others again in the future? Who knows what will happen in the future? It all depends on fate." Zhao Wenzhuo answered the reporter's question in a very conventional manner.

"These two days were the first time I visited Shenzhen in person. It was a good experience. The city is a blend of prosperity and street life. It's a very special city."

"When is the movie expected to be released? The specific time has not been determined yet. We have just joined the crew and it will take some time to shoot."

"The lead actress's scenes were not cut. Modifying the script is a normal operation. After all, it is impossible for every movie to be filmed directly according to the original script. Plans cannot keep up with changes!"

"..."

At the media conference, it is impossible not to interview each other's opinions, and naturally there will be a textbook commercial mutual promotion.

As a result, everyone is naturally happy.

Jingtian’s traffic instantly surged, and everyone except the Hong Kong filmmakers got what they wanted.

At the same time, Gu Wei couldn't help but smile as he read the news reports on the Internet.

Wow, Wuershan is really good at boasting. He even started praising Jingtian’s acting skills.

There were also Zhao Wenzhuo, Wu Jing and others who spoke up for Jing Tian at the press conference. In the photos and videos posted online, Jing Tian was made to blush.
