In the next few days, Feng Xiaoyun still played the role of the president, and Yan Zi was his assistant. Annie began to rehearse the situations in the play by herself.
Feng Xiaoyun gave her a lot of insights during this process, which helped her gain a deeper understanding of the character of Annie.
I also gradually began to appreciate the sense of accomplishment that an assistant feels when he or she has solved the challenges posed by his or her boss.
Finally, time passed and it was time for the opening ceremony of "Fashion Devil".
This opening ceremony was incomparable to the last one for "Racing Girls". Not only was the number of reporters and media several times more, but even many famous actors who had schedules came to show their support.
After all, if I get to know Director Zuo, maybe he will find me a role that suits me next time.
When Yan Zi and Ma Ke'er stood on Zuo Ying'an's left and right, there were countless envious or jealous eyes looking at them.
And here people are more concerned about Yan Zi. There is nothing she can do about it. Who can blame her for being so lucky?
She was the female lead in her first movie, which grossed 1.7 billion yuan. Now she is one of the female leads in her second movie, directed by the international director Zuo Ying'an, and she is acting opposite the film queen Ma Ke'er.
Some time ago, the media dug up Yan Zi's experience of obtaining a Koi Card at Qiansheng Building. Now many people on the Internet and Yan Zi's fans call her a Koi. Some fans even worship it before taking exams, saying that it can increase the accuracy of their answers to multiple-choice questions in the exam.
In fact, such a title has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it can attract a lot of passers-by fans, but the disadvantage is that some people will think that your success is due to good luck.
Therefore, the studio did not add fuel to the fire of this statement, but just let it ferment on its own on the Internet.
The three of them cut the ribbon for the camera together, and naturally, the press conference was indispensable.
As the absolute C position, Zuo Ying'an first answered several official questions with relatively official answers.
For example, questions such as the source of creative inspiration, box office expectations, etc. are always asked at every press conference.
Then the questions started to become more targeted. For example, the reporter asked, "Director Zuo, we know that many well-known actresses received auditions for the two female leads this time. So, can you tell us why you chose Ms. Ma Ke'er and Ms. Yan Zi in the end?"
Many actresses who came to watch the ceremony also pricked up their ears, especially a few actresses who also came to audition but were rejected, and they were very interested in this question.
"I only have one reason for choosing a role, and that's because she is who she is." Zuo Ying'an said confidently:
"I never consider whether an actor is famous or not. As long as they perform well in my plays, fame is a given. So whether they are well-known or not is meaningless to me. I also don't really care about their acting skills. After all, if they have been invited by me, then at least their acting skills have exceeded my mental standards. What I want is that sense of unity between the actor and the role. I require my actors to be the characters in some way."
Zuo Ying'an said proudly, "Didn't I want to find someone to play the Guanzhong hero in my last martial arts movie? Later, everyone said that I found the real Guanzhong hero to play this movie. So the compatibility of the role was the only reason for my choice."
After Zuo Ying'an answered a few questions, a reporter finally turned to Ma Ke'er: "Ms. Ma Ke'er, there are rumors online that you and Ms. Yan Zi have some connection. So, I'd like to ask, do you think you and Ms. Yan Zi will become friends after this collaboration?"
Marco smiled softly, took the microphone and said, "I don't think so!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a commotion at the scene. This kind of situation is rare at the opening ceremony.
"Although the script needs to be kept secret, I can reveal that in the play, we two clash a lot, and our ideologies and perspectives don't align, so it's hard for us to become friends. Ah, this reporter just asked about the two of us in the movie, right? Am I understanding correctly?"
The reporter hadn't realized she was talking about the relationship in the drama, but she couldn't really say, "I'm just gossiping, I want to see you two fight, right? Do you still want the red envelope later?" She could only smile awkwardly and sit down.
However, one reporter found another breakthrough point: "Ms. Marco, although this is a movie with two female protagonists, I think one of them will have a slightly more important role. Who do you think it is?"
"I think it's mine!" Ma Ke'er said without hesitation, "After all, the movie is called Fashion Devil, and I'm playing the devil. What do you think, Yan Zi?"
Marco directly threw the question to Yan Zi, who took the microphone and said, "My opinion is exactly the opposite. I've always loved reading boys' books since I was a child. In the end, those powerful demons are always defeated by the brave, haha!"
Another reporter immediately stood up and asked Yan Zi, "Miss Yan Zi, if you think your role is more important, does that mean you think your acting skills are on par with Miss Ma Ke'er?"
"Of course not, but since the director is Zuo Ying'an, I think even if my acting skills are still immature, he will definitely find a way to guide me." If we are just discussing the roles, then which role is more important is actually how the screenwriter writes it and how the director writes it.
But when it comes to real-life acting, if Yan Zi, a newcomer who has only starred in one movie, dares to say that she is on the same level as a two-time Best Actress, then countless people will jump out to accuse her of being shameless.
Now that the topic has been brought back to Zuo Ying'an, the reporter is unable to continue asking questions.
"Director Zuo, the two leading actresses you've invited this time are both very talented singers. Ms. Ma Ke'er has won the Golden Disc Award for Best Singer, and Ms. Yan Zi also won the Golden Disc Award for Best Newcomer last year. So, would you consider having them both sing the theme song for this film?"
Zuo Ying'an didn't expect the reporter to ask this question. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Well, the theme song definitely has to fit the theme. As for who will sing it, I don't actually have any plans."
What this means is that if two people want to have the theme song, then they can, each based on their own abilities, and whoever has the better one will use it.
"So is Marco interested in the theme song?" a reporter asked immediately. After all, they all wanted to create chaos.
"Of course I'm interested. In fact, I've already asked Mr. Zhang Ke to write a song for me. As the winner of the last Golden Disc Award for Best Songwriter, Mr. Zhang Ke is very interested in communicating with this year's Best Songwriter, Mr. Feng Xiaoyun, through music. Miss Yan Zi, your boyfriend probably won't refuse, right?"
"Of course, I think Feng Xiaoyun will also be happy about this exchange?" After saying this, Yan Zi looked at Feng Xiaoyun who was sitting in the audience, and Feng Xiaoyun gave her a thumbs up in response.
All of a sudden, the reporters' flashbulbs started clicking. There were so many things to write about today. The two of them had journalistic talents to begin with, and now not only were they competing for roles, but even the theme songs were starting to compete.
At the same time, the two-time Golden Disc Award winner for Best Songwriter will also be up for grabs, which will be a lot of topics to talk about.
