Entertainment 1998

Chapter 727 Chapter 726, Jia Junpeng, your girlfriend is asking you to go to the cinema to watch a movie
Changan
Leading the way, the palace guards on horseback escorted the four-horse carriages and chariots through the streets.

People on the street stopped and watched.

Shen Baoping, who plays the role of King Liang, looks out the window at Chang'an, which he has been away from for a long time.

"OK, passed, next shot."

...

in the country, whether it is shooting a TV series or a movie, what the crew wants is efficiency.

When the same shooting scene appears repeatedly in the drama, the general director will bring all the relevant actors to the shooting site and then concentrate on shooting.

Just like today, we were filming the "Chang'an" street scene at Hengdian Film and Television City. The previous scene was filming the plot of General Wei Qing sweeping across the Huns and returning to Chang'an, and the next scene was filming the scene of King Liang entering the capital.

Standing outside the shooting site, Jiang Feng looked at today's shooting notice. There were three scenes involving him, and all three scenes were relatively simple to shoot.

There was a scene with only 4 shots. It was the scene where Liu Che, the Emperor Wu of Han, who I played, passed by his half-sister Jin Su on the street.

Thinking of Jin Su, Jiang Feng looked at Gao Yuanyuan.

Gao Yuanyuan played the role of Jin Su in the TV series "The Emperor of Han Wu". At this time, Jiang Feng saw an assistant director from the crew came to her and asked her to hurry to the dressing room to change her clothes because she would have a shot soon.

As soon as Gao Yuanyuan left, Xu Jinglei, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, immediately sat in her seat.

Xu Jinglei, wearing a green military coat and wrapped herself like a brown bear, opened the huge thermos at her feet, poured out a cup of fine Longjing tea, took a small sip, then took out her mobile phone and started making a call.

To be honest, Jiang Feng was not prepared at all for Xu Jinglei's sudden arrival at first.

The two have broken up for such a long time, and she has been with San Bao and Zhang Yadong successively. It is said that she has recently set her sights on Han Han, a writer who became famous at a young age.

However, when I heard that the movie "Love Is Not Blind" directed by Xu Jinglei was a box office failure and only earned 11 million after 2000 days of release, I suddenly realized it.

She came for help.

Due to the epidemic, when "Love Is Not Blind" was about to be released, domestic film distribution companies said that they would lose money and suggested that Xu Jinglei wait a while.

Even Xu Li, director of the China Film Distribution Department, pointed out, "Old Xu, no matter how good your movie is, it can't be better than Jiang Feng's. Didn't you see that the release date of Jiang Feng's movie "The Yellow Sea" has been postponed?"

But Xu Jinglei, who is stubborn by nature, didn't know what was wrong with her head. She directly argued that it was precisely because no one dared to release a movie at this time that my movie had to move forward alone!

Audiences who like to watch movies during the Chinese New Year have no other movies to choose from.

In order to demonstrate her determination and also to boost the morale of the distribution companies, Xu Jinglei also signed a military order with the film distribution companies China Film and Bona.

Well, some people also call it a bet agreement.

In the agreement, the two parties agreed that the box office of "Love Is Not Blind" would be based on RMB 6000 million. For the part exceeding RMB 6000 million, Xu Jinglei would take 20% of the box office share; if the final box office was less than RMB 6000 million, then she would make up the shortfall herself.

wipe…

It's been released for 11 days and it's only grossed 2000 million so far. If the current trend continues, it'll be good if the movie can gross 3500 million by the time it's off the screen.

Xu Jinglei now even wants to die. It is true that she is a princess loved by everyone in the Beijing circle, but her current total net worth is really not 2500 million RMB.

Well, even if she had the money, I believe she wouldn't be willing to spend it.

Jiang Feng was thinking about it when he suddenly felt the phone in his hand vibrate. He picked it up and found that it was a text message from Xu Jinglei.

[Jiang Feng, let me chat with you about some gossip in the circle.

Yan Zi had her face disfigured and underwent three rounds of plastic surgery in South Korea some time ago. After the surgery, her appearance became better than before.

In order to make a comeback, she went to the south to find a master named Wang. After the master blessed her, she immediately received a great resource.

It is said to be the sequel to the movie "Hero", it seems to be called "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", and the male lead is Jiang Wen. 】

Jiang Feng frowned slightly when he saw the text message, but soon relaxed.

History’s error correction mechanism is indeed powerful.

[There is a wealthy family in the capital, and they are now doing business. The third son of the wealthy family is also a person who believes in fate.

He had been having troubles at work some time ago, so he found an expert named Cao in Hyogosu Hutong. The expert told him that he was missing a pendant, a Pixiu.

Jiang Feng, guess what?

This Pixiu is actually a girl. 】

Ok…

This is quite similar to a certain rumor that Jiang Feng had heard of before.

[Your female classmate received guidance from an expert and successfully made a comeback.

This inspired your agent's sister. Although it is a special period now and you should try not to go out, your agent's sister still rushed to the south.

Jiang Feng, actually if you think about it, you can understand that her sister got a lot of resources from you.

Like "Nobody" and "Departures", each of them is a big hit and made many actors famous.

But look at her.

I walked the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards, but I just can't become famous. This would make anyone anxious. Oh, by the way, I heard that your agent's sister was introduced to the master by the Emperor of Kung Fu. 】

Ok…

This incident was confirmed in the previous life. There are photos and videos, and the news at the time was also reported in the local newspaper.

However, when he saw the third text message, Jiang Feng couldn't help it and replied to Xu Jinglei immediately.

[Teacher Xu, tell me, what is your purpose for coming here this time?]

[Haha, Jiang Feng, I have been in Hengdian for so many days, and you are finally willing to pay attention to me. If you ignore me, I will continue to chat with you about gossip and idle talk until one day you completely hate me.

Well, originally, I wanted to continue pursuing you, but your bodyguards are too powerful. If I get a little closer to your room, they will immediately take me away. 】

[I'm about to go on set to film a scene, so just speak your mind.]

[The movie "Love Is Not Blind" suffered heavy losses. As of today, the box office revenue is only 2120 million RMB.

I talked to many people, and they all said that even a god wouldn't be able to save me in this situation.

So I came to you, because in my eyes you are omnipotent, and you are the only one who can turn the tide when others think it is impossible. 】

What are my benefits?

[Your nephew's girlfriend is a student of the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama. Her name is Tong Yao. You don't have to worry about anything. Just leave her to me. I can make her famous this year.]

[She doesn't need you yet.]

[Fan Jiuyi and Gao Yuanyuan, I am responsible for finding resources for them in the Beijing circle. Each of them will play the leading female role in a TV series. The minimum investment is 1000 million.]

〔Do you have such great ability?〕

[I didn’t have it before, but as long as Love Is Not Blind can buck the trend, I will have it, because Wang Shuo, Wang Zonglei’s grandchildren have invested in this movie.

And the reason why this movie was released now was because those grandchildren instigated me to do it. 】〔Haha...〕

[How much publicity funds do you have left?]

【147! 】

[Jiang Feng, if you think this amount of money is not enough, I can personally give you another 100 million.]

〔enough. 〕

[Give this 147 million to Gao Yuanyuan and return to Beijing.]

【Then what? 】

〔Then I went home and waited for news.〕

Beijing, Nanluoguxiang Maoer Hutong

Wang Fei's belly became bigger and bigger.

Her pregnancy wasn't so obvious before the Spring Festival, but just a few days after the New Year, her belly had grown bigger again.

In previous Chinese New Years, whether at home or abroad, Wang Fei always stayed with her daughter Tongtong, but this year was different, Tongtong stayed with her grandmother.

I was just afraid that my active daughter would accidentally bump into me again.

But it’s okay. Although my daughter Tongtong did not spend the New Year with me, there are two younger generations at home. One is Jiang Feng’s nephew Wang Haoyu, and the other is Wang Haoyu’s girlfriend Tong Yao.

Due to the epidemic, neither of them returned to their hometown for the New Year and stayed in Maoer Hutong.

Watch TV, surf the Internet, play games, or cook at home.

Speaking of which, Wang Haoyu's cooking skills are pretty good. Although he can't catch up with his uncle Jiang Feng, due to his genes, some of the dishes he prepares are really unique.

For example, on the Spring Festival, he put several dishes together to make a feast, and the taste was really unique.

Even the very picky Chen Jiaying gave this boy a thumbs up and said, "Wang Haoyu, it's because your uncle doesn't allow you to enter the entertainment industry. If he did, I would be the first one to sign you."

"Ha ha…"

After hearing what her agent said, Wang Fei burst out laughing.

People who can cook delicious food have a natural talent for cooking. What does that have to do with being in the entertainment industry?!

Unfortunately, as the school term for universities in Beijing approaches, this happy time is gradually coming to an end. After all, Wang Haoyu and Tong Yao are both college students.

Well..., after looking at the calendar at home and finding that today was already February 2th, Wang Fei smiled and took out 13 yuan and placed it on the table.

"Haoyu, Tongyao, you will start school on the 16th.

Use this money to go out for a nice meal and then go to a movie.

Oh, by the way, try to wear a mask when you go out.”

Speaking of watching movies, Wang Haoyu, who was playing online games, didn't react much, while Tong Yao, who was reading a newspaper, smiled and shook his head.

"Aunt, forget about watching a movie. The newspapers said that there is only one movie coming out this year, and that is Love Is Not Blind, directed by Xu Jinglei, a teacher at the Beijing Film Academy.

But even this movie has a terrible box office. In 1500 cinemas across the country, the daily box office is only 200 million yuan. Well, the box office in the past two days is even less than 200 million yuan."

"Ah, is it so miserable?" Wang Fei was a little surprised. He supported his stomach with his hands, stood up from the sofa, and turned around the living room twice with difficulty.

"I remember when the movie 'Nobody' was released, the box office was over 1 million every day, and it wasn't until the holiday that it dropped a little bit."

"Aunt, you are right. Otherwise, my uncle's movie 'Nobody' wouldn't have earned 18.2 billion RMB at the box office."

I've been in this business for a long time.

Whether calling Wang Fei "Aunt" or Jiang Feng "Uncle", Tong Yao was very natural.

They are my boyfriend’s relatives, so it’s not shameful to follow my boyfriend and respect them.

"Aunt, it was mentioned in today's Beijing Daily.

"Love Is Not Blind" is a very classic love movie. It is not only a comedy, but also looks very heartwarming. However, it was born at the wrong time and the release time was not well chosen.

No one dared to go out to watch movies.

Otherwise, the fans of this novel alone could bring it a box office of 1000 million.

Well, even a film critic named Zhou Liming said that in the current situation, even gods can’t save this movie.”

"Oh, that's how it is."

It wasn't something that Wang Fei particularly cared about, so he thought it was enough to just understand it.

But at this time, Tong Yao spoke again with a smile.

"Aunt, today I went to the Maoer Hutong vegetable market to buy vegetables and met the nanny of Director Kaige's family. According to his nanny, Teacher Xu Jinglei had been to their home and said that she hoped Director Kaige could help promote the movie "Love Is Not Blind" in the media.

However, director Kai Ge rejected it.

Director Kai Ge said that no matter how good the quality of the movie was, he would not trick ordinary people into risking their lives to go to the cinema to watch a movie.

He also suggested that Xu Jinglei go to Hengdian to look for her uncle who was filming "The Emperor of Han Wu" and ask him to help her with some ideas..."

Upon hearing the news, Wang Fei was angry.

Mr. Chen, have I killed your child by throwing him to the ground or have I dug up your ancestral graves?

How can you be such a mean person?
You don't want to fool the common people and make them risk their lives to watch movies in the cinema, so you push him to my man Jiang Feng... Are you still a human being?

Thinking of this, Wang Fei took out his mobile phone angrily and prepared to send a text message to Jiang Feng who was far away in Hengdian. No matter how your old lover tries to please you, you can't help him.

But when Wang Fei took out her phone, she saw her nephew Wang Haoyu. She suddenly turned around and said to Tong Yao, "Yao Yao, let's go to the movies. Let's watch Love Is Not Blind?"

"what…"

"It's okay, let's just wear masks and be safe."

"No, Haoyu, what's wrong with you?" Tong Yao was a little confused.

A few days ago, people were saying that the epidemic was so serious that anyone who went to the movies was a fool. Why are they so brave today?
"Well, I'm not crazy. I think there are some things that people must do once in their lifetime." As he said this, Wang Haoyu moved the computer behind him away, and at this time, Wang Fei and Tong Yao saw the computer screen.

On the computer screen is a photo of a beautiful girl.

The beautiful girl wore a mask and stood quietly in an empty movie theater, making a V gesture. There was a line of text on the photo that was particularly eye-catching.

[Jia Junpeng, I'm waiting for you in the No. 2 screening room of the Kintaro Cinema in the island city. If you love me, be brave and watch a movie with me to prove that our love will last till death! ]

The comment section under this photo has received nearly 10,000 replies.

"Jia Junpeng, your girlfriend is asking you to go to the cinema to watch a movie!"
