Chapter 494 You are so polite, I am not used to it!
Just when the entire music world was shocked and speechless by Lin Fan's song "Dong Feng Po", the launch conference of "Legend of White Snake" was officially held.
This launch conference was fully organized by Shanghai Film Studio. Lin Fan and Yang Hongxia only served as the main creative staff. They only needed to attend the conference and accept interviews. They didn't have to worry about other things.
Moreover, organizing a launch conference was just a piece of cake for Shanghai Film Studios, and there was no need to delegate it to others. Therefore, after everything was ready, Lin Fan only had to attend on time.
The press conference was held in a banquet hall of a five-star hotel in Shanghai. Shanghai Film Studio invited dozens of journalists from media outlets that the company normally interacted with to attend the conference, but in the end, the number of journalists that showed up at the scene probably exceeded a hundred.
Many self-media came uninvited and gathered outside the banquet hall, causing a certain impact. Shanghai Film Studios obviously had a plan for this situation, selecting some of these self-media as representatives, issuing passes, and allowing them to enter the banquet hall.
As for the rest, I’m sorry.
It was the first time that Lin Fan attended a press conference, and he was the director and the male lead. Most of the media people came just for Lin Fan. There was no other way, as Lin Fan has been too popular recently.
The wave created by the song "Dong Feng Po" has not yet fully emerged, but everyone knows that Lin Fan is no longer just a talented singer-songwriter, he has become the pioneer of Chinese-style music and a figure who can be compared with those masters who have made great contributions to the Chinese music scene.
Even the leading lady of "Legend of White Snake", the best actress Li Man, was overshadowed by Lin Fan's brilliance.
But no matter what, because of Lin Fan, the project of "Legend of White Snake" has its own attention, which is a good thing for the main creators of "Legend of White Snake", the investors, and all the actors who starred in this play.
The host of the launch conference was of average level. After introducing the general background of "The Legend of White Snake", the creative team, and investors in a routine manner, he entered the free question session.
Lin Fan couldn't help but be shocked, ready to face the various difficulties or questions that followed.
Well, isn’t that how it’s played out on TV? Whenever the protagonist does something big, there are always those ignorant minions who jump out to make trouble, expressing disapproval, doubt, and opposition. Then, they are so shocked by the protagonist’s actions that they can only kneel down and shout “Big boss, awesome!”
Ahem, Lin Fan felt that he should also be able to enjoy the pleasure of pretending to be awesome and getting slapped in the face.
But the result was: "Hello Lin Fan, I am a reporter from XX media. We all know that the story of "Legend of the White Snake" is your original creation. What was your original intention in creating this story?"
"What are your expectations for the play "Legend of the White Snake"?"
"May I ask what do you think of the actors you act with?"
…
Lin Fan: What about the difficulties you promised?
Where is the questioning you promised?
You guys are so polite, I'm not used to it! It must be said that when Lin Fan was on Earth, he was greatly harmed by all kinds of stupid TV dramas.
You have to know that most of those who take things out of context and deliberately misinterpret the artists' meanings are paparazzi. Serious media still have their own ethics, and those sensational reports are, ahem, just headlines at best.
Besides, the invited media all received travel and tea expenses. You can't just take their travel and tea expenses and then deliberately make things difficult for them, right?
Of course, it is hard to say about those self-media with varying quality.
However, in such occasions, only media outlets that have been screened by Shanghai Film Studio are allowed to enter the banquet hall. At least on the surface, everyone is very respectful. As for what they write after returning, Shanghai Film Studio cannot control it.
At most, when those self-media make up stories, we can send a lawyer’s letter to warn them.
In short, the atmosphere at the entire press conference was very harmonious and the press conference was a complete success. Only Lin Fan failed to pretend to be a beep, which was a bit regrettable.
The main creative staff took a group photo, and then opened the camera wrapped in red cloth. The press conference process was completed. The staff of Shanghai Film Studio invited a group of reporters to go to the venue for dinner. As for the main actors such as Lin Fan, they all went back to their own homes.
Lin Fan said hello to the others, and just as he was about to leave, Li Man stood up and called Lin Fan: "Director Lin, please wait a moment."
Lin Fan was confused: "Sister Man, what's the matter?"
Li Man smiled and explained, "There should be a lot of uninvited self-media and even paparazzi waiting for us to come out."
The press conference will actively invite entertainment reporters from TV stations, portals, and video networks to participate. These media stick to the bottom line and will not deliberately make things difficult for the creative team.
However, those paparazzi and self-media who were not invited had no bottom line at all. They could not enter the venue and could only wait outside, waiting for the main creative staff to come out and then rush in!
At that time, the questions they asked were not so mild.
They will even deliberately provoke the artists. As long as the artists give a slightly stronger reaction or fall into a language trap, they can create a gimmick and write an article with many "explosive points" in the name of "possibility" or "suspected" that will make the artists angry to the point of exploding.
As for suspected rumor-mongering? Didn’t I write “suspected” and “possibly”? And so many paparazzi and wild self-media wrote this, how could the artist have the time to settle accounts with them one by one?
Li Man was used to such scenes, but it was the first time for Lin Fan to see it, so Li Man kindly reminded him. Regardless of whether Lin Fan was prepared or not, it would not be wrong to remind him.
Lin Fan accepted Li Man's kindness: "Thank you, Sister Man, for reminding me. How are you going to get out?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Li Man was helpless: "What can I do? I can just rush through. No matter what they ask, I won't respond, refute or pay attention to them. I can just get in the car and leave."
These paparazzi, the more you deal with them, the more disgusting they become! However, Lin Fan showed his eight white teeth: "I have a way."
…
Ten minutes later.
The door of the banquet hall was opened, and the paparazzi who were waiting outside rushed over to the man and woman who were protected by assistants and security personnel. They were wearing a pair of huge sunglasses and a peaked cap that every staff member had. They asked them a lot of random questions: "Riemann, I heard that you've secretly married and had a child, right? Do you know who the father of the child is?"
"Lin Fan, someone broke the news that you had close contact with underage female fans while running the B&B. Is this true?"
"I heard from Li Man that you accepted Lin Fan's unspoken rules in order to get this role. Is this true?"
…
In short, all kinds of questions with no bottom line make people furious!
However, no matter how these people asked, the man and woman who were protected at the back kept their mouths shut and did not answer. They were not even in a hurry to leave, but allowed the paparazzi to surround them at the door.
Until the paparazzi became more and more excited, one of them even reached out and directly took off the woman's hat, and the paparazzi screamed: "You are not Riemann!"
When the woman saw that her hat had been blown off, she simply stopped pretending and took off her sunglasses, revealing an ordinary face. She gave the paparazzi a standard eight-tooth smile and said, "The answer is correct, but there is no prize!"
On the other side, Li Man, who had undergone a makeup transformation using Lin Fan's system, had already taken advantage of the fact that his stand-in was surrounded and quietly slipped into the car waiting at the back door and drove away!
As for Lin Fan himself, there was even less to worry about. After the paparazzi discovered that "Lin Fan" was also a stand-in, they all dispersed and ran after the car that hadn't gone far. From beginning to end, they didn't realize that the real Lin Fan had disguised himself as a security guard and had been staying right under their noses!
