Huayu timely rain, they forced me to be the top star

Chapter 296 Youth Sisterhood! Fat Bing: I’ve been “persuaded” so of course I’ll be obedient!
"Um, do you want to put on some clothes first?"

Liu Yifei looked at Zhao Liying with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Ok?"

Zhao Liying glanced down, and a blush instantly appeared on her face.

She was like a rabbit, quickly crawling back into bed, and glared at Zhang Yang fiercely: "Look at what you have done."

Zhang Yang:?
I gave up because it was too hot last night.

"How much is the box office?" Zhang Yang looked at Liu Yifei.

There's no need to make some things too clear. Anyway, he didn't suffer any loss.

Zhao Liying's beautiful eyes were shy, and she gave a look that said "you're smart", then turned to look at Liu Yifei with an expectant look on her face.

The box office on the first day yesterday must have been extremely high, which could have made Liu Yifei so excited.

"7983 million!" Liu Yifei didn't keep the secret.

"Mr. Duo!?" Zhao Liying exclaimed in surprise.

"It was almost 80 million." Liu Yifei was very satisfied with Zhao Liying's performance and smiled: "It is the first-day box office champion of Chinese youth films and the single-day box office champion."

She has acted in so many movies, and many of them ultimately grossed not much more than 70 million.

The movie started off well, and she seemed to see the final box office predicted by Zhang Yang waving at her.

"Almost 80 million!" Zhao Liying stretched out her hands and patted Zhang Yang's cheeks: "Does it hurt?"

"What do you think?" Zhang Yang's mouth twitched slightly.

"It hurts." Zhao Liying held her cheek, her big eyes bright as stars: "Don't even mention youth films, this first-day box office record is second only to Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons."

"It's a 3D movie with an investment of hundreds of millions, and it's released during the Spring Festival."

"This is the first movie I starred in, and I got such good results."

"That's awesome."

She is not just starring in the film, but participating in it. "So Young" is indeed the first movie starring Zhao Liying.

Liu Yifei: “.”

Suddenly I couldn't laugh anymore.

I've starred in movies for so many years, and they were all flops.

"Why aren't you excited at all?" Liu Yifei looked at Zhang Yang.

"Excited?" Zhang Yang yawned. "I invested in Lost in Thailand and made a cameo appearance. I invested in Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons and played a starring role. I invested in Capital Meets Seattle and was the male lead. So, why should I be excited about a second male lead in So Young?"

Liu Yifei:!

Damn it, I’ve been tricked by this bastard again.

This was not the case when she went to Reba and Nazha to inform them.

"Eighty million on the first day, not bad." Zhang Yang threw back the quilt and got out of bed.

The original version of this movie had a national screening rate of 33.54% on the first day and a box office of 4650 million on the first day.

Now he plays the second male lead, Liu Yifei plays the female lead, and Reba, Nazha and Zhao Liying join in. There are 37 screenings on the first day, and the box office is close to million, which can only be said to be a normal performance.

After all, he is the most popular male star nowadays, and is dubbed the "top star" by many media.

Liu Yifei's popularity cannot be compared to Yang Zishan's.

In other words, the male lead, Zhao Youting, is a real drag.

"Not bad." Liu Yifei rolled her eyes almost to the sky, but after thinking carefully, she sighed: "Only you can say this."

"Speaking of good news, I do have some good news." Zhang Yang stretched his body and spoke slowly: "Yesterday I helped you each earn 500,000 yuan."

"Five hundred thousand!" Zhao Liying's eyes lit up: "One day?"

This is five hundred thousand, almost one-tenth of her current wealth.

After all, she only became famous at the beginning of the year, and before that her income from film fees, endorsements and advertising were all very average.

Then in the past six months, Zhang Yang did not let Mo Xiangwan take on the endorsement for her, saying that it would be a loss.

Wait until "Youth" is finished and "Legend of Mermaid" is broadcast before taking on the endorsement to maximize profits.

"Yeah." Zhang Yang nodded slightly. "Yesterday, Guangguang's stock price hit the daily limit, and it will continue to rise. In my opinion, it will not be a problem for your 5 million to become 10 million."

Since the past 10 years, the film market has been changing and the rules of the game have begun to change.

The reason why many movies have high box office is that investors invest behind the scenes with the aim of raising the stock price, selling high and buying low to make a profit.

The box office of "Monster Hunt" will be inflated in the future, in order to use various records and good news to drive Huace Holdings to make money.

The box office success of "Lost in Thailand" and "So Young" was actually due to the fact that Guangguang spent a lot of money on publicity and created good news behind the scenes. During the release of the latter, Guangguang's stock price nearly doubled and hit the daily limit several times.

Zhang Yang has no interest in making money from the stock market or manipulating finance behind the scenes. He is not that greedy.

But knowing clearly when a certain stock will rise, he would not leave it alone and make some pocket money.

Large stock transactions need to be reported, and as a celebrity, he certainly wouldn't use his own name.

Long before the movie was released, he asked Mo Xiangwan to find a professional institution to buy stocks.

He invested 20 million, and Zhao Liying and others also invested a small amount of 5 million.

They will withdraw as soon as they make a little profit.

"what!"

Zhao Liying held her face and screamed excitedly: "I'm rich, I'm rich!"

Liu Yifei: “.”

The box office is just a good impression, but the profits from the stock market are real money that belongs to her.

It seems that the news from Zhang Yang is indeed more gratifying.

"You are a very bad man!" Liu Yifei glanced at Zhang Yang.

"If I were a bad person, I would take you in to take a shower right now." Zhang Yang suddenly picked up Liu Yifei.

"Let me go!" Liu Yifei struggled.

"Zhang Yang, you bastard!"

"Ah, Liying is still watching."

"Believe it or not, I will bite you."

"Hmm~"

Zhao Liying was too lazy to look over there any longer.

Her eyes are really shining with gold now.

Zhang Yang's mysterious confidence made her feel as if she saw countless small coins flying towards her.

After a long while, she ran to the bathroom and saw a scene that made her blood boil.

"That's enough, you two~"

More than an hour later.

The three neatly dressed people appeared in the cafeteria.

"I'm telling you, I'm telling you"

Zhao Liying immediately told Reba and Nazha the good news of making money.

"Then I have made three hundred thousand dollars!" Naza also showed a money-grubber expression.

"Then I earned more than 100,000 yuan." Reba was shocked.

They all gave the money to Mo Xiangwan, and the money was in the same account.

"Isn't this risky?" Cheng Duling listened nearby, looking worried. "No!" Xiao Tao gave the answer: "The boss said that we can't speculate in stocks, let alone manipulate them, but we can follow him to invest."

"Lost in Thailand."

"When Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons was released, Brother Yang also bought Huayi"

Xiaotao's eyes were full of admiration.

Her small treasury is usually not touched, but when Zhang Yang asks Mo Xiangwan to find an institution to buy stocks, she will also buy and sell together, making huge profits without losing!
"Master, you are still too comprehensive."

Hearing the amount of money Zhang Yang made, Cheng Duling felt excited.

“Everyone seems very happy.”

Yan Zi came to the restaurant and saw that Liu Yifei and the others were all beaming with happiness. She smiled and said, "Your reason for being happy should be the same as mine, right?"

Zhang Yang ate a boiled egg, raised his eyes and smiled softly: "It must be the same."

If you think we are happy because of the film's performance, you are right.

But it can also be understood as making money in the stock market just like you.

"This is indeed something that deserves everyone's happiness." Yan Zi clapped her hands: "Everyone should work harder in the next roadshow."

"Of course, of course!" Zhao Liying and the other girls were very excited.

The higher the box office, the more favorable the film market will be, and the shares of Guangguang will continue to rise, and their small treasury will increase accordingly.

It’s all about business!

"Everyone happy?"

Zhang Yang glanced and his eyes fell not far away.

Zhao Youting was having dinner with Zheng Kai and others.

This may not be the case.

An idea flashed through his mind, and Zhang Yang took out his mobile phone to surf the Internet.

All major platforms are flooded with topics related to "So Young".

When it comes to promotional resources, Guangxian is really willing to spend a lot of money, of course this is also because there is profit to be made.

[“So Young” grossed nearly 8,000 yuan on the first day, breaking many records]

[Looking at the changes in the domestic film market from the box office of "So Young"]

【Chinese films are about to enter a new era】

[In less than half a year, the top three domestic film box office records have all been replaced. Is the era of great directors coming to an end? ]

【Zhang Yang, a name that cannot be ignored in Chinese-language films】

[Iron Man 3 will be released on May Day. Can So Young withstand the pressure of blockbuster movies? ]

"!"

After seeing the last piece of news, Zhang Yang's eyes instantly became sharp.

This movie, with a box office of over 1.3 million on the first day, will re-occupy the records of first-day box office champion and single-day box office champion in the mainland.

Deep down, he also likes to watch Marvel, especially Iron Man, but as a Chinese filmmaker and a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, he definitely doesn't expect "Iron Man 3" to do very well.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yang stood up and walked to the window next to him and dialed Pang Bing's number.

"Brother Yang, you are so busy, how do you have time to call me?"

On a big bed, Fat Bing, wearing silk pajamas, slowly sat up with a charming look in his eyes, but unfortunately no one could see it.

"Noble?" Zhang Yang chuckled, "How can he compare to you, the number one on the Forbes celebrity list?"

On April 4, the 24 Forbes China Celebrity List was released.

Pang Bing, who was ranked third last year, only behind Milk Tea Lun and King Liu, successfully rose to the first place.

Da Mimi made the list for the first time, ranking seventh.

"No. 1?" Fat Bing said, "You were here too. You were No. 4 the first time you made the list. I guess you'll be the first next year."

"You are only slightly less famous than me, Milk Tea Lun and King Liu, but how long have we used it, and how long have you used it?"

"Besides, you make more money than us."

I make more money than you?

Zhang Yang thought, "That may not be the case."

The celebrity list only counts income from performing arts.

King Andy Lau, Milk Tea Lun and others are also very good at investing, and it is hard to say how much money they make.

But these are not important. Zhang Yang changed the subject: "Let's stop flattering each other about our relationship, okay?"

"What's the relationship between us?" Fat Bing lifted the quilt and got out of bed with a smile in his eyes.

She wanted to hear some sweet words.

"Of course there is a connection between you and me." Zhang Yang replied.

Fat Bing chuckled: "You really haven't changed at all, so why did you call me so early in the morning when you were busy on the road show for "So Young"?"

"I just miss you, okay?" Zhang Yang asked back.

"Do you miss me, or do you want to sleep with me?"

"Is there a difference?" Zhang Yang said with a confident tone: "If I want to sleep with you, I also miss you. If I miss you, I definitely want to sleep with you."

"You are the only one with a reason." Fat Bing smiled brightly: "Don't I know you?"

"Then you really wronged me." Zhang Yang's face became serious: "I really came here to care about you."

"I told you not to act in the mainland special segment of Iron Man 3. You should have listened, right?"

Hearing this, Fat Bing raised his eyebrows slightly: "I remember that Iron Man 3 was released on May 4st, and So Young was also originally scheduled for May 26st, but because we didn't want to conflict with it, it was moved forward to April th. And you still say you are here to care about me?"

"You'll know in a few days whether I care about you or not." Zhang Yang didn't explain: "Just tell me, did you act or not?"

"No." Fat Bing curled his lips and said, "You convinced me a lot that day."

"How can you pretend to obey but secretly disobey?"

"The actor who plays this role is Zhang Guoji."

“This is a chance to make a Hollywood blockbuster.”

Hearing the regret in Pang Bing's tone, Zhang Yang laughed: "Don't worry, you will be glad that you didn't act."

After getting the correct answer, Zhang Yang chatted with the person next to him for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

"This way, I don't need to hold back at all."

Zhang Yang thought about it and returned to Liu Yifei and others.

After having breakfast together, everyone took a bus to Huairou Film and Television City for a roadshow promotion.

The audience was very enthusiastic about the arrival of the "So Young" crew and screamed continuously.

Especially when seeing Liu Yifei, Reba, Naza, Zhao Liying and Zhang Yang in the same frame, I never stopped taking pictures.

The game session was over, and it was time for the usual interview session.

Zhang Yang was very low-key this time; he didn't want to be asked anything again.

"Director Yan Zi, I have a question." A reporter asked: "It is said online that the reason why So Young was changed is because they were afraid of a head-on collision with Iron Man 3. What do you want to say about this?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene changed.

Zhang Yang: “.”

Metaphysics is indeed true!
