Perfect Life

"The box office has exceeded 100 million yuan for three consecutive weeks, and "Once Upon a Time" has become a sequel movie box office myth!"

"Breaking 100 million in the third week, 'Huang Feihong' said with a smile: The teacher gave us a red envelope!"

"Three four hundred and forty million, "Once Upon a Time of Man" is expected to hit the "Life and Death" record of 700 million!"

"The box office of "Golden Terrace" plummeted by more than 50% in the next week. Expert: It is difficult to exceed 300 million!"

…………

Zhou Yanghua threw down the newspaper a little irritably, crossed his hands, and leaned on the boss's chair.

After a while, he suddenly sat up straight, reached out and picked up the phone on the desk, and dialed a few numbers, but before the phone numbers were dialed, he thought about it, and then put the phone on again.

Get up, walk a few steps, go back and pick up the phone again, press 0, and directly say, "Help me pick up the theater line."

"Okay, Chairman."

The busy tone rang, and three seconds later, a sweet female voice rang, "Hello, the office of the general manager of the Oriental Cinema Line."

Zhou Yanghua said: "I'm Zhou Yanghua, has Xiong Chengchao come to work yet?"

"Uh..." The other end of the phone was stunned, and then said in a sweeter voice: "Yes, Chairman, Mr. Xiong may have gone out to relax. His mobile phone is also turned off. Do you want me to contact him at home? For a moment? Maybe..."

"no need."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Yanghua hung up the phone.

worry.

angry.

There was a vague sense of worry.

He picked up the weekly business report sent from the theater chain on the table, and took another look.

This number is really ugly.

Because there is no "Once Upon a Time", the main film of the Oriental Cinema in the past two weeks has been "Golden Stage".

However, last week's operating income should have been 27 million, and last week was even worse, only 19 million.

According to the practice of previous years, even in the summer season, when all the cinema chains have money to make, the advantages of many cinemas located in the high-end consumer circle of the Oriental Cinema Line are not so obvious, and they must be obtained from the broader market of the entire market. About one-sixth to one-seventh of the market share.

But last week, it was 8.6%, and last week, it was 8.1%.

If I remember correctly, this should be the lowest point of the Oriental Cinema in the past ten years.

Horse's!

"Once Upon a Time"!

Ugh……

But the biggest question is, who knew that "Golden Terrace" would actually look like this?

Who could believe that Qin Wei would actually rush to the street?

That's Qin Wei!

Last year, Qin Wei won 700 million yuan!

A sense of powerlessness struck, and Zhou Yanghua suddenly felt a little exhausted.

It seems... everything has become a little different from before, the feeling that everything is under control, and that I can always make the most accurate and wise judgment, I can't find it anymore.

After thinking about it for a long time, he sighed again.

He took out his mobile phone and thought about it for a long time, and finally he was cruel, gritted his teeth, and dialed a number.

The call is connected.

"Hello, Jay Chou!"

"Yihua, are you busy?"

"Hey, what can I do, just tell me if you have something to do."

"Hehe, that's right. Our company has two movies in preparation recently, and the cost is not too high, but I'm very optimistic about them. Look at this, I want to ask you to send me two people."

"Okay!" The voice on the other end of the phone was full of surprises, "Hey, thank you so much!"

Zhou Yanghua laughed heartily, "Uh... and ha, there is something, I have to ask you to run around and talk to the center."

"You say."

"That's right, what are their people's thoughts? They want to invite that little Swallow and Ziwei from Minghu, and they have a lot of TV stars in recent years. They want to send an invitation or something. This is not The two of us are a little unhappy, you run away?"

"Yo!"

Du Yihua on the opposite side, just this one word.

But the meaning is extremely complicated.

Jirai has only heard that actors and agents are running around to toast and ask for roles. Unless they want to hire superstars, very few people actually ask for actors in reverse.

What's more, the Oriental Media Group is a one-stop from production to distribution to theaters. The leading and flagship of the domestic film circle, they have always been domineering in their treatment of actors.

this is one.

Movies and TV dramas have a natural demarcation between the stature and the celebrity status. When TV actors are very popular, they often want to try movies. This is no problem. Some people succeed and successfully enter the film circle, while others fail, so go back obediently. Continue to act in TV dramas, but, even if a small-screen star is more popular, to star in a movie, its future and money are hard to predict, and the risk is very high.

This is two.

Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei, of course, are very popular. They probably have no shortage of movie appointments, but until now, the third part is about to start, and it is said to be the last one. It's over, but they still haven't heard what movie roles Hu Culture has taken over for them.

Obviously, Minghu Culture takes this matter very seriously.

Ordinary small companies and small directors, they would rather let it go than take it casually.

This is three.

But now, Zhou Yanghua, who has always been in the film circle, has come to beg him in such a low voice, and the purpose is to invite two TV stars to act in their film projects?

Ha ha!

The word "Yo" came out, showing Du Yihua's inner surprise, but as her thoughts turned, she quickly cleared her mind, and without the slightest hesitation, she smiled and said, "Zhou Dong, so you are this one. What do you mean! It seems that the role for our company is considered a leader?"

Zhou Yanghua smiled bitterly, "Hey, with your mouth, how can you be called a boss!"

On the other side of the phone, Du Yihua pondered briefly and changed his tone, "Zhou Dong, it's not that I don't help, but you look at me a little too much. As for Minghu Culture, you know that from Li Qian to Qi Jie, it's very difficult. People to deal with! Besides, I don't have any good friendship with them!"

Zhou Yanghua was silent for a moment, then said: "You arrange for the candidate, a heroine, plus an important male supporting role!"

After he finished speaking, he said: "Yihua, others don't know, I know, you always have a way! Help!"

Du Yihua didn't speak for a while, and then she suddenly said, "Is it because the cinema can't stand it?"

Zhou Yanghua laughed subconsciously when he heard the words, "Theatrical chain? What can be wrong with the theater chain! Yes, the profit and revenue may be a little worse than in previous years, but, you know, Oriental Media has a solid family background. It's all trivial things! I mainly think that everyone is in this circle, looking up and not looking down, everyone working together to make money, it's better than fighting against each other all day long, everyone cold war, right?"

Across the phone, Du Yihua seemed to let out a chuckle.

It made Zhou Yanghua's heart feel uncomfortable for a while, and his face felt a little hot.

"I'll try it!" she said. "No guarantee of success!"

…………

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yanghua put down the phone and felt a little more at ease. After thinking about it, he picked up the phone on the desk again and wanted to dial, but in the end, he asked the secretary to help him get to the general manager's office.

When the other Zong Chengze picked up the phone, he said, "Xiong Chengchao is getting angry, I really don't have the heart to persuade him anymore, this guy has a lot of brains! You find a way to contact him for me and persuade him. Persuade, persuade people to come back first, that guy dares to resign directly! He will not give my face!"

"Hey, hey, good chairman, don't worry, I'll do it right away!"

…………

in the cafe.

After hanging up the phone, Du Yihua smiled and shook the phone at the person opposite.

"This is your boss."

…………

Seeing the roof of the familiar villa from a distance, Ming Xiaojing gave a light direction and turned towards the path.

Drive straight into the yard and get off.

The sun is so strong that it feels like it can dry people out in seconds.

She walked quickly up the steps and went over to ring the doorbell.

It was the nanny who came to open the door. She knew Ming Xiaojing very well. She took the initiative to find slippers. Then Qin Wei's wife saw that Ming Xiaojing was coming and greeted her, "Xiaojing? Why are you here?"

Ming Xiaojing smiled and said, "Hello, sister-in-law, I'll come and see Director Qin."

Qin Wei's wife sighed, pointed her hand to the back garden, and said, "I'm competing with myself! I haven't eaten much, so I just keep drinking tea!"

Ming Xiaojing pursed his lips and smiled, "Then I'll go take a look."

Behind Qin Wei's big villa, there is a very delicate small garden. Although it is not comparable to the luxurious manor-style villas like Li Qian and Wang Jinglu, in this era of soaring housing prices, it is possible to have such a piece of land that covers an area of ​​nearly 100 square meters. The garden is already a symbol of the rich.

This house, this garden, and the owner here were once the towers of Chinese cinema.

Ming Xiaojing pushed open the back door and walked out.

Qin Wei didn't even look back when he heard the movement, but soon, he seemed to hear that the footsteps were not so heavy, and felt a little wrong, so he looked back and smiled, "I said the footsteps are so light, why are you? coming?"

Ming Xiaojing smiled, and sat down on Qin Wei's side, saying, "If you're idle, come and grab a pot of your good tea and listen to your old man's instructions."

Qin Wei smiled.

"Teach a fart!"

Without bothering Qin Wei to pour the tea, Ming Xiaojing picked up the upside-down tea bowl and poured himself a cup of the exquisite glass tea sea.

"Well, Tieguanyin? Really fragrant! Why did you drink Tieguanyin again?"

Qin Wei didn't speak for a long time, as if he didn't hear it, he just stared into the distance in a trance.

After a while, he said: "The fragrance of Tieguanyin, you don't need to drink it, you can tell it when you smell it. As for whether it tastes good when you taste it carefully? That's another matter. Tell me to say no. It's delicious!"

Ming Xiaojing heard the words, thoughtful.

He looked up at Qin Wei.

Rarely look at it so seriously.

He is really about to be in his 60s. In addition, he has not paid attention to maintenance all the year round. On the set and in the editing room, he is like a young guy every day, he is not willing to stop to breathe, and he smokes again. fierce……

It turned out that he didn't pay attention so deliberately, but when he looked seriously at this moment, he suddenly felt that the wrinkles on his face were already as deep as a knife and an axe.

Especially in the last few days, he seems to have suddenly gotten older again.

No one could know in advance that the "Golden Terrace", which was unanimously optimistic about the whole country, ushered in after its release, but this is actually the situation.

The first week was already extremely unfavorable. It made Qin Wei's self-confident goal in front of so many reporters and people in the industry become an empty gun, which made him feel a little disgraced. Who would have thought that the next week would be a big one again. diving!

For Qin Wei's films, the box office fell by more than 50% in the next week, which was unimaginable before!

Such a drop can not be exaggerated to describe it by a thousand miles!

But the reality is such cruelty, such irony.

"Once Upon a Time" changed the director. A previously unknown guy who was said to just run errands for Yu Bojun and Li Qian took over the guide tube. It is difficult for you to use the title of an artist to locate such a person, and this sequel to "Once Upon a Time" is said to continue the production style of Minghu Culture, the investment is not too high, and the cost is strictly controlled. But... it actually broke 100 million every week, and the box office has already reached 440 million in three weeks!

Last year, a "Gate of Life and Death" forced Li Qian and "Once Upon a Time" to be trampled underfoot. According to estimates by many experts, at least "Once Upon a Time" lost 50 million in box office, and even ... It is possible that this loss can reach 100 million.

This year's "Golden Terrace", which came with the victory, is still a super director, with a heavy investment of more than 100 million yuan, and a huge publicity cost of more than 50 million yuan so far. Everything seems to indicate that "" "Golden Terrace" will continue the myth created by "The Gate of Life and Death" last year, and continue to be as powerful as God Qin Wei.

And the little-known director Zhao He took over "Once Upon a Time as a Man of Self-improvement", which is likely to be even worse than Li Qian's first film!

However, all these expected expectations were all in vain.

In the end, the much-anticipated and anticipated "Golden Terrace" only received over 160 million at the box office in the first two weeks, and the final box office may not exceed 300 million!

Paid!

…………

Ming Xiaojing looked at Qin Wei, but Qin Wei looked into the distance, ignoring Ming Xiaojing's gaze.

After a while, Ming Xiaojing poured himself another cup of tea and tried to say: "Brother, it's nothing, I've also watched this movie, it's not as bad as those comments said, it's just a wall Let everyone push it! Let's talk about it..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Wei suddenly turned his head and looked over.

Sharp eyes, calm and intimidating.

Years of admiration and admiration for him made Ming Xiaojing respect him like a **** in his bones. At this moment, he was so stared at by his eyes that all the words were smothered in his throat.

"Are you comforting me?"

Qin Wei asked in a low voice and slowly.

But his eyes were by no means as calm as his tone.

Ming Xiaojing was subconsciously flustered and turned away from looking at him - at this moment, those eyes gave her the feeling that a tiger looked over and was about to eat people.

"me……"

Qin Wei suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth, not sure if it was a smile.

"You came to comfort me too!" he laughed.

Ming Xiaojing felt a chill in his heart and said, "Brother..."

Qin Wei waved his hand, with a self-deprecating sneer on his face, "I never knew that there are so many people who care about me. Oh, Duta Ma came to comfort me!"

Ming Xiaojing opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say.

Qin Wei didn't even look at her, and continued: "Want to comfort me? Okay, give me something real! Come on, you are the actress, and now you are the director, come and tell me, where did I go wrong? what?"

He waved his arms, "It's the same way as "The Gate of Life and Death", why did Ta Ma rush? You tell me? Say I don't care anymore, cheating money! Fucking shit! I have no intentions, I know in my heart very!"

"That scene, ah, go and see! What is Li Qian, what is Fu Xuelong, do they have my filming? Story? There have been several meetings, I have written and revised it, revised it and discarded it, and I have written it again after it has been scrapped! Am I not good at filming?"

"There's also editing. I did the same thing when I filmed "Red Light District" back then. What was the result?

"That's seven hundred million!"

"Grass!"

Ming Xiaojing just looked at him like that and said nothing.

After speaking, Qin Wei touched his pocket subconsciously, Ming Xiaojing was quick, picked up the cigarette case and lighter on the table, and handed them over.

Qin Wei took it, took out one, and clicked on it.

It **** fiercely.

"Grass!" he said.

Ming Xiaojing pursed his lips and watched him ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ smoked a cigarette halfway. He got up slightly and put it out in the ashtray.

After a while, he said: "Xiaojing, I'm sorry, it's not against you! I just... just... I'm a little confused! I don't understand where I lost! My heart... I'm helpless!"

Ming Xiaojing leaned out, reached out and held his hand, "I know, I know."

Qin Wei shook her hand away and waved, "Okay, you've been here too, let's go! Go back! What should you do, film and act well, take every step carefully, don't follow me! "

Ming Xiaojing opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

After sitting for a while, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The tea is already cold.

Turning his head to look, the cup in front of Qin Wei should have been untouched since it was poured, and a clear circle of tea marks had faded from the inner wall of the cup.

She stood up, "then I'm leaving brother."

Qin Wei waved his hand, without looking at her or speaking.

From the side view, the expression is lonely.

At this moment, Ming Xiaojing looked at him, looking at his profile from a side-up angle, and seemed to be able to perceive the cold feeling of powerlessness in his heart at the moment. Then, she suddenly felt that Qin Wei, who had always been firm, confident and strong, seemed to have become a child who was forgotten by his parents in the busy city overnight - he seemed to be at an unprecedented loss.

He was puzzled, he was anxious, he was hesitant.

Ming Xiaojing turned and left.

Walking to the back door, she looked back.

Qin Wei is lighting a cigarette.

In the hot summer day, he just sat there, with clear traces of sweat on the back of his neck.

On the table in front of him was a cup of tea that had been cold for some time.
