Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 632 Zhou Chu warms up and waits for the release to share the money

On December 12st, the first trailer of "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" was released.

It was scheduled to be released on December 12th without any delay.

As Zhu Yilong's first film after winning the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, it immediately attracted a lot of attention!

The bonus of being the best actor is still huge.

Zhu Yilong has completely stopped taking on TV dramas.

Click on the trailer.

Many viewers were amazed.

This feeling——

I am uneducated, so the only thing I can say is "awesome!"

"I am a sinner!"

"I am endangering the world!"

"I have failed the people!"

Shen Guilin knelt on the ground and was whipped and purified by the believers in the church.

Under the eerie red light, he knelt on the ground and threw the Holy Grail.

Pulling the gun, Shen Guilin pulled the trigger.

"Have you heard the story of Zhou Chu eliminating the three evils?"

"Everyone only remembers Zhou Chu. No one remembers who the other two people he killed were."

"So, Zhou Chu is the valuable person."

"I'm going to do something big and let everyone on the street know who I am."

“This is my worth!”

The camera keeps flashing back.

The trailer is not only weird but also violent.

The last shot is Zhu Yilong's weird smile after he fired the gun.

Just this two-minute trailer has raised the audience's expectations to the highest level.

It quickly topped the discussion lists of major forums.

Although Xu Yien did not appear in the film, her shadow can be seen in the trailer.

Because Chen Sicheng gave Xu Yien the title of art director.

The gossipmongers on Weibo also revealed that "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" has Xu Yien's investment.

That's it...

Zhu Yilong joined Xu Yien's faction.

The onlookers were all stunned.

Zhu Yilong and Bai Yu act together, and it is certain that these two people are Xu Yien's type.

It is surprising that Chen Sicheng rarely plays a role himself.

Quietly, Xu Yien and Chen Sicheng established such a deep cooperative relationship.

But compared to these gossips, there is more discussion about the trailer itself.

Especially for the role of Shen Guilin, Zhu Yilong successfully portrayed the feeling of hostility and murderousness.

"Holy crap, it turns out Chen Sicheng's secret project is actually an action movie?"

"There's no need to worry about Zhu Yilong being the best actor, but I didn't expect Xu Yien to be the art director. It seems Xu Yien has a place in the film industry now. I checked Maoyan and found that one of the investors is Xu Yien's company."

"Ah? Xu Yien actually has a film and television company?"

"Yes, one of the producers, Yi Film and Television, is his. I checked with the Heavenly Eye and found that the legal person is Xu Yien, but it seems that he only invested in this one movie."

"I remember it was from Shishuo Xinyu that I learned some time ago. The first time I came across the phrase 'If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening.' It was also from Zhou Chu's poem. 'The ancients valued hearing the truth in the morning and dying in the evening. Besides, your future is promising. And people worry about not having a firm will, so why worry about not having a good reputation?'"

"Chen Sicheng is actually filming an action movie? Even though I often call him "Chen the Dog," I became interested in this movie after this trailer came out. Also, Zhu Yilong, who is usually a simpleton, shows off a kind of wicked handsomeness in this movie."

"It turned out that Xu Yien wanted to play the role in this movie at first, but later gave up and recommended Zhu Yilong instead. Then Xu Yien played the third team. The twin stars are really good."

"What's the Gemini meme?"

"Upstairs, let me explain to you, Gemini means Xu Yien and Zhu Yilong used to be in the same company, and they had a very good relationship, so they were called Gemini."

"Damn, if Xu Yien plays this role, it should be pretty good, right?"

"Zhu Yilong is very good. The crazy and critical feeling of this character is a bit like Nicholas Tse in "The Angry Case". Men will also find it handsome."

"Zhang Yishang is quite pretty in it, I envy Huang Yu."

For this play.

Chen Sicheng's expectations have been raised to 15 billion.

It was originally just 10 billion.

But now Zhu Yilong's rating has been raised.

"Life's Big Events" grossed 17 billion yuan and won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor. Now that it has its own director, it must gross at least 15 billion yuan.

Maybe we can even push for 20 billion...

But no matter what, expectations are just expectations. If this movie can make more than 12 billion yuan if it is released at the end of December, it will be a huge profit, not to mention that the investment cost of this movie is not high.

Xu Yien bet on the box office of "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" to be around 10 billion yuan, and he will own 35% of the share, which roughly means he will get 1.34 million yuan.

It's a considerable income anyway.

Why is Xu Yien not optimistic about the box office reaching 15 billion?

Because of the December schedule, the goal of 12 billion is too difficult to achieve.

Although there are many factors that influence box office sales, the release date is indeed very important.

It’s hard to say. No one knows how the movie will perform until it is released. Let’s wait and see.

Box office prediction media have also released box office predictions one after another, most of which are between 8 million and 10 billion, with the highest prediction being around 12 billion.

This thing can't be counted.

The predicted box office for "There's Nothing a Hotpot Can't Solve" is still 1.6 million.

The last 60 million was not received...

A box office revenue of over 100 million is just a threshold.

Many first- and second-tier stars end up being cannon fodder after filming a movie. This can be seen from the film market in 2024.

Zhang Zifeng won the Huabiao Award for Best Actress. Her movie "My Sister" had a box office of 8 million yuan, while her new movie "A Journey Across the Moon" only had a box office of 4542 million yuan.

It was a complete failure.

The funniest thing is Yang Yang, who originally thought it was a huge pie in the sky to play the second leading role in a movie.

I was thinking of entering the film industry with this movie.

As a result, it was withdrawn and banned shortly after it was scheduled.

The biggest problem is whether a film with historical nihilism can be released.

All content on the movie’s official Weibo account has been deleted, all trailers have been removed from the internet, and the Weibo entry has been banned.

Yang Yang, OUT!

As for this movie, the wise people on Bilibili started to whitewash it before it was released. What will happen after it is released?

This kind of movie should be severely criticized.

We must resolutely not allow this group of so-called "literary and artistic creators" to skirt the law any further.

……

……

On the set, the office of the Third Brigade.

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Brother Cheng, what do you think the box office of 'Zhou Chu Eliminates the Three Evils' will be?"

Chen Sicheng passed the buck and threw the topic to Xu Yien, "What do you think, Yien?"

Xu Yien sat at the table with his hands in his pockets.

Hearing Chen Sicheng's question, he smiled and replied, "It must be at least 1 billion. There's quite a lot of discussion online."

Chen Sicheng raised his eyebrows and smiled devilishly: "One billion is too low, I think it's 1.5 billion."

"uh-huh."

Chen Sicheng suddenly sighed, "Actually, it would be great if you could act in it. You would be more captivated in this kind of role because you have a more pointed face.

Yilong's face looks a bit too honest, like a good boy."

"I don't think it's a pity, because I think I am more suitable for Cheng Bing." Xu Yien smiled.

Chen Sicheng suddenly smiled with relief: "Yilong's acting was also very good. Maybe I feel it's a pity that you suddenly stopped acting."

He sighed again: "Alas, if it was really you who played the role, the effect might be different."

In the past few days, Zhu Yilong joined the crew of "Volunteer Army" directed by Chen Kaige, playing the protagonist Li Xiang in the second season.

For Xu Yien, it doesn’t matter whether he plays in "Volunteer Army" or not, because he already has "Sniper".

Zhu Yilong was different. He had never acted in a mainstream movie of this type, so he naturally accepted the invitation with pleasure.

No matter what, Chen Kaige is a great director.

No matter how they are ridiculed, their status in the industry remains, and being able to cooperate is a good thing.

I just don’t know when Arthur will be able to reach the top position he has always dreamed of.

As it stands now, there should be no such opportunity.

Xu Yien nodded in agreement: "Yeah, I think so too."

Wei Chen said cheerfully, "Well, I think the trailer is pretty impressive. And with director Sicheng starring in it, it's definitely going to be a big hit. Just relax."

Bai Yu also said, "Of course, it's rare for me to play a one-eyed dragon and have such a fist-to-flesh fight scene, so it must be a big hit.

If this doesn't sell well, I'll be sorry for wearing foggy contact lenses every day while filming."

"Hahahaha." Xu Yien teased: "Even if he is a one-eyed dragon, he is still a handsome one-eyed dragon."

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow and made a funny expression: "How can I be a couple with you if I'm not handsome? You handsome brother."

Wei Chen had a mischievous smile on his face, and said in a teasing tone, "You two are really a good match."

Wang Xiao drank some mineral water, said nothing, and just laughed along.

When filming with Chen Sicheng, you never have to worry about the atmosphere on the set, because the director is the one who is most good at showing off in his spare time.

The crew chatted for a while and then got busy filming.

It's another beautiful and happy day.

After finishing the filming, the whole group went to a restaurant together to enjoy the local delicacies of Foshan.

Xu Yien simply took a nine-grid photo of Foshan delicacies, first sent it privately to Meng Ziyi on WeChat, and then posted it on his second Weibo account.

These everyday photos full of life also have the effect of attracting and retaining fans.

Because it can bring me closer to my fans.

Xu Yien became the person his parents hated the most, eating while looking at his phone.

Although parents say this, they themselves also look at their phones while eating...

Meng Ziyi: [Wow, look how delicious it is! ]

Xu Yien: [Is that so? What delicious food are you eating?]

Meng Ziyi: [Braised again~]

Xu Yien: [Another high-calorie day. Won't Auntie continue to call you fat? Your legs are a bit thick.]

Meng Ziyi: [How can you belittle me? How are my legs thick?]

Xu Yien: [I didn't belittle you. It was your aunt who said that outside. I was just quoting your mother's words. Is that wrong?]

Meng Ziyi: [Asshole, my mom told me to break up with you, saying you're a coward, a jerk, a jerk who's cheating on multiple women. Do you think that's right? You really disappoint me, humph!]

Xu Yien: [What Auntie said before is all right, but breaking up is wrong. You can't let go, and I can't let go either! Love/.]

Meng Ziyi: [Bao, I went to farm today.]

Seeing that her topic was jumping around a lot, Xu Yien looked a little confused and edited the message and sent it.

What kind of land do you farm and why do you farm?

This time, Meng Ziyi switched to sending voice messages.

When I clicked on it, I found out that it was the familiar earthy love words.

Meng Ziyi's voice was full of cuteness and adorableness: "I am completely devoted to you~"

Although it's quite rustic, Xu Yien loves listening to it.
