Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Ever since Tang Xiaosheng held a press conference and promoted the filming plan of "Journey to the West: Searching for Zixia", he has become the focus of most attention in the entire entertainment industry.  ¡°No matter whether they are ordinary viewers or professionals in the film and television industry, they don¡¯t know what Tang Xiaosheng wants to do.  He spent a huge sum of 600 million to make a movie, but he is almost crazy to have the movie released within a month. This is completely inconsistent with the operating rules of the movie. He will lose money in all likelihood, and will lose all his money.  As the saying goes, there is no business without treachery.  Most people still don¡¯t believe that Tang Xiaosheng doesn¡¯t want to make money. They think that if Tang Xiaosheng is not crazy, he has found a new profit model for movies. Otherwise, he would not use most of his wealth to do such ridiculous things.  As a result, many experts began to analyze Tang Xiaosheng's plan and speculated on how Tang Xiaosheng's "Westward Journey" would achieve profitability.  Just when everyone had different opinions on the matter, Tang Xiaosheng's public statement turned all experts' opinions into nonsense, and Tang Xiaosheng's decision surprised everyone.  When asked by reporters what kind of profit model "Westward Journey" will use, Tang Xiaosheng did not answer, but publicly stated that all future box office revenue of "Westward Journey" will be used for charity in the name of the Tang Long Foundation.  , he personally wouldn¡¯t take half a penny.  After the news came out, everyone really believed that Tang Xiaosheng seemed to be really crazy.  He spent a lot of money and effort to film "Westward Journey", but all the box office revenue was used for charity, which meant that not only did he make less than half a penny, he also had to lose at least 600 million yuan.  Tang Xiaosheng himself clearly knows this result, and he feels that it is completely worth it.  The purpose of filming "Westward Journey" was not to make money, but to convey a message to Zixia in future time and space through this movie, letting her know that the Supreme Treasure is looking for her.  Now we don¡¯t know exactly which era Zixia is in. It may be in 2018 or 2034.  Maybe in 2055 In order to ensure that Zixia can see the movie "Journey to the West", it is required that the movie has enough reputation and influence that it will still be remembered in the next few years or even longer.  .  To achieve this effect, "Westward Journey" must be unique.  It is for this purpose that Tang Xiaosheng intends to create more jaw-dropping stunts for the movie "Westward Journey".  "The fastest-costing movie in history", "the billion-dollar movie with the shortest production time in history", "the strongest film production team in history" these labels were all deliberately chosen by Tang Xiaosheng.  The purpose is to build buzz for the movie.  Now, this movie may have a few more labels.  For example, "the most money-losing movie in history", "the most unreasonable movie in history", "the weirdest movie in history" and so on.  Because a movie with a total investment of more than 600 million yuan actually uses all the box office revenue for charity. Looking at the global film and television industry, this is unique.  It seems that this is not making a movie at all, but doing charity in disguise, and all investments will be in vain.  Regarding Tang Xiaosheng¡¯s decision, not only ordinary citizens and industry insiders could not understand, but even the senior management of Dream House Film and Television and the directors of the "Westward Journey" crew expressed opposition. They could not see the meaning of this at all.     but.  As the president of Dream House Film and Television and the sole investor of "Westward Journey", Tang Xiaosheng's decision represents the company's decision and the decision of the producer. Therefore, the entire "Westward Journey" production team continues to act as planned.  The only reason why he insists on using all the box office proceeds for charity is to expand the influence of the movie "Westward Journey".  As for the hundreds of millions of yuan lost as a result, he felt it was well worth the money.  Although there are overwhelming voices from the outside world that do not understand.  But this is not a bad thing, because "Westward Journey" has become the hottest topic among these voices, and the attention it has received has reached unprecedented heights.  In this way, Tang Xiaosheng's goal of building momentum for "Westward Journey" can be considered achieved.  Of course, he knew it in his heart.  Any hype can only attract a lot of eyeballs in a short period of time. If you want "Westward Journey" to truly become a work that will be passed down to future generations, the most important thing is the quality of the movie itself.  So, on the day of the press conference, Tang Xiaosheng devoted all his energy to the production of the film. All work on "Westward Journey" was in full swing, and the crew officially started shooting on the same day.  The extremely intense shooting phase began.  In order to gain more time, the filming work of the "Westward Journey" crew was carried out 24 hours a day without rest during the day and night.  There are a total of eighteen assistant directors in the entire crew, divided into three groups. Everyone brainstorms and discusses the best shooting plan. Then, each group is assigned its own shooting tasks and takes turns.    During the filming process, actors such as Stephen Chow, Tang Xiaosheng, Lin Meimei, Bai Xiaoxiao, Hu Tianzhuan, and Big Big Wolf all performed very well, especially Hu Tianzhuan and Big Big Wolf. Their performance made the entire crew happy  Everyone was surprised.  Previously, when Tang Xiaosheng decided to let Hu Tianzhuan play the role of Tang Monk and Big Big Wolf play the role of the Bull Demon King, the chief director and eighteen assistant directors in the crew expressed their opposition because they felt that Hu Tianzhuan and Big Big Wolf were "amateurs".  It would be unwise for an actor to take on such an important role.  As a result, after watching the performances of Hu Tianzhuan and Big Big Wolf, I found that their acting skills were beyond imagination and almost impeccable. They interpreted the two roles of Tang Monk and Bull Demon King perfectly, and their acting skills did not seem to be inferior to Tang Xiaosheng's.  , the crew members all joked that they had picked up two live treasures.  While the crew was filming day and night, the huge film and television post-production team with a total number of more than a thousand people was also making all preparations and getting ready to go.  The most interesting thing is that before the filming of the film started, Zhao Min, as the vice president of Dream House Film and Television Company, had already started to contact major theaters across the country to discuss the release schedule of "Westward Journey".  While Zhao Min was rushing around for the film schedule, Guo Xiang was also very busy, and she took charge of the film's publicity work.  When it comes to publicity, Guo Xiang is definitely not a professional, at least he lacks experience.  However, Tang Xiaosheng still allocated 5 million as funds and asked Guo Xiang to be responsible for the promotion of "Westward Journey" in Jinghua City.  Guo Xiang is currently studying journalism. Since she is interested in this field, Tang Xiaosheng gave her a chance to practice.  After receiving this publicity task, Guo Xiang was very excited. She finally had the opportunity to practice the professional knowledge she had learned in school.  Guo Xiang is still a college student, and it is her first time to be the person in charge of a large-scale publicity event, so she is still a little nervous.  However, the little girl was still quite resistant to pressure, faced the difficulties, and completed the publicity work with great success.  In this way, all aspects of work on "Westward Journey" are in full swing.  Although the work arrangement is very tight and the pressure is very high, every member of the entire "Westward Journey" production team is full of enthusiasm.  Because they know that they are not making an ordinary movie now, but a classic that will go down in history. They are challenging an almost impossible task in the history of Chinese film.  However, one woman tried to stop this plan.
