Chapter 411: I Have a Girlfriend
In 20 days, across 16 cities in China, a total of 53 roadshows, Zhou Xiaohuo went out, the guarantee has collapsed, and he can't make a steady profit without accompaniment, and now he has to rely on himself completely, so he is out of the way.
Originally, the division of the itinerary was to be responsible for half a month, and the rest was handed over to other actors, but for the sake of the movie, for the sake of the rice ears, for the investors, for the five percent commission, for the debut film, I can't stop!
It's really hard!
used to run roadshows with the crew, Zhou Xiao just assisted him, and he did it in a week to ten days, relying on his youth to be completely fine, but he kept running outside for 20 days in a row, and there was no regularity in eating, living and traveling, which made him realize that it was not easy for Wu Jing at that time.
It's not an exaggeration at all, his flight miles this month are enough to exchange for a round-trip ticket to the United States.
None of the three meals were on point, and in the morning, either I got up and went straight to the airport and ate a bite on the way, or I arrived in a new city in the middle of the night, and it was too late to catch up on sleep.
The voice is hoarse, the fat sea is drunk, the eyes are swollen with ice, the person is tired and there are Red Bull, American ginseng, sleepy, car, plane, and a bench can fall asleep at any time, which can be regarded as practiced.
It's also a little helpless, a group of people broke their legs and said that they were dry, and the effect was not as good as a fraction of "Avengers 4", and people just released a trailer, saying that they were going to come over to promote, and they were all crazy.
There are all kinds of speculations on the Internet, and there is still a month before it will be released, so I have grasped the overall situation in advance, which can't be compared.
In particular, the birth of "Captain Marvel", as the 21st work of the Marvel Universe series, although most people are not familiar with it, it still cut down the box office of 800 million, to put it bluntly, this is just an appetizer, a warm-up, and a charge for Avengers 4.
Seeing 600 million, and at least a box office of 1 billion, Zhou Xiao is envious and jealous, Marvel is still Marvel, really special bull criticism, ten years ago, the devil knew who was Iron Man, who was Captain America, and who was Black Widow.
But after years of operation, this IP has been collecting money all over the world, and everyone can stand up for it, which is terrible!
Bi's idea is that he doesn't have it at all, he can't beat it, it's like letting him go to a bullfight with James, which is the part of being abused.
But!
It's okay to beep a few words, I can't beat you, can't I scold a few words.
...
"Wake up, it's coming soon!"
Brother Wang's voice sounded in his ears, Zhou Xiao wiped his eyes, he felt that he had just fallen asleep, and he had arrived, he stretched his waist, the bones of his whole body were clicking, and he looked around, the actors had woken up, and they were talking to each other!
"What time is it?" he beckoned for a glass of water.
"Ten o'clock soon," Brother Wang looked at Zhou Xiao: "Rest well at night, you have to get up early tomorrow." ”
"Oh, I want to sleep with him for a day and a night now, and if I continue, my hair will fall out. ”
"Why don't you just don't get up in the morning, and Mr. Guo and I will pick up people?"
"Forget it. Zhou Xiao shook his head: "Many people came to participate because of my face, and not coming to the airport to pick me up is already the biggest concession, and I definitely have to say hello." ”
Tomorrow is the day of the national premiere of "Exercise", which is scheduled at the Jinling Grand Theater, from eight to half past nine in the evening, no movies will be broadcast, no screenings will be held, and countless friends and reporters and fans in the circle will be invited to come over to watch the performances and chat, the main purpose is to create a wave of momentum at the end.
After being busy, there are still three days to spare, so I have to keep running.
"They are all insiders, so they should be able to understand. "Brother Wang followed him all the way, and he was not light, let alone the director.
"If I'm a senior, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if I go or not, but am I? I'm not! I'm just a young man who has debuted for three years, although I have only starred in three movies, and although the box office has exceeded 10 billion, I am still a younger brother. Zhou Xiao snorted, he learned from Mencius.
Brother Wang suddenly became angry, just chatting well, why did you suddenly start pretending to be forced?
"Okay, whatever you want, I'll let Lin Shan come and pick you up tomorrow, or just go to the hotel to rest, save the back and forth." ”
"Don't. Zhou Xiao refused: "I still go to the hotel when I get home, I have a lot of money, besides, I sleep well in my bed, what time did I come first?"
"The earliest? Chichi and Teacher He Jiong have arrived today, Mr. Guo is in charge of the reception, went to see the scene, the process is right, and Tencent Youku has also said that tomorrow's premiere will be broadcast live. ”
In fact, if you hand it over to one, you can still collect some money, but for movies, that little money is really not worth it, and you still need several more media to report it together to expand its influence.
"As for the earliest," Brother Wang took out his notebook: "It's Huang Lei, he is in the magic capital, it is estimated that he can arrive at nine o'clock, and Brother Bo and Shen Teng are similar." ”
"Then can't I sleep until ten o'clock and then go to the hotel?" Zhou Xiao said in surprise.
"If you want to be beautiful, you have to put on makeup in advance, okay, where will you be free when everyone comes in the afternoon, I will have people send gifts directly to your house." Brother Wang poured cold water.
"Hmm!" Zhou Xiao was unhappy, if he could get up at ten o'clock, it would be crooked.
On the side, Meng Ziyi was chatting with Chu Xia, but her ears were still paying attention to her boyfriend's side, she participated in a twelve-day roadshow, intermittently, leaving to record a show, or participate in radio promotion.
She sees how hard Zhou Xiao is, hey, it can only be said that every profession has not easy places, celebrities look glamorous, and they also come through hard work, and they only hate to say that they can't help.
There will be a lot of big coffee tomorrow, it is estimated that many people may not know her, and there is no way to help her, if she goes to pick up the airport or entertain, maybe it is not as good as the effect of the cauldron, after all, Dao Sui is a brokerage company with unlimited potential, and it is not good to say that there will be cooperation one day, and it will give some face on the surface.
But as a small actor, he can't say anything, he can only be a wooden man standing there, and he is just boring.
"How's your voice?" asked Brother Wang with concern.
Zhou Xiao pulled a voice: "It's okay, it's no problem to sing, you and Mr. Lin talk about it, keep an eye on tomorrow's process, don't make any mistakes." ”
Although I really want to, I really don't have the time and energy to check the preparations for the premiere, hundreds of large media, more than a dozen platforms live broadcast simultaneously, dozens of stars are present, the scale can be seen, if you make a mistake, you will lose a lot of money.
At the premiere of other people's houses, the director just went up to talk and show his face, and Zhou Xiao had to sing.
However, everyone can understand that he is still young and will not feel lost, but will give people a good impression, work hard, and work hard!
In addition to Zhou Xiao himself, Mao Buyi, Deng Ziqi must also be on stage, and he found Dong Chou, plus some dance programs, interviews, NG highlights or something.
"Hey, these are all favors, when will they be repaid. Zhou Xiao looked out the window, he could already see the little lights below, and sighed.
"You are content, the people on the list are willing to come, in addition to giving you face, they are also optimistic about you, they think they are good, they can make friends, others want to owe favors and have no chance, I haven't watched the premieres of some movies, it's just two or three kittens, it's better not to do it, it's a shame." ”
"But I've only been in the business for three years!"
Brother Wang: ...
"Don't say it, Zhou Xiao is right, he has been able to achieve his current results in three years, and he is not called traffic, which is very powerful. Zhang Yu turned his head and smiled.
", Brother Yu, you eavesdrop, this is a private conversation Thank you, I reserve the right to sue you. "Zhou Xiao is serious.
"You're insane. Zhang Yu was speechless: "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." ”
"Don't. Zhou Xiao leaned over and patted his chair: "Do you want to stop praising me?"
Meng Ziyi was a little helpless, his boyfriend was very happy with this attribute, except when he was asleep, he could activate it at any time.
After getting off the plane and taking the luggage, a group of people came out in a mighty way, which also triggered the onlookers of some passengers, but everyone was really tired, so they didn't stop more, and got on the bus prepared by Daosui in advance and went straight to the hotel.
Only twenty days have not returned, but Zhou Xiao felt that he had come back after a long time, got out of the car, breathed in the air with haze, and had an internal smell.
"Why don't you go home and get out of the car?" asked Mencius, standing beside him.
"When I arrived, I definitely had to go and say hello to Mr. He. Zhou Xiao turned around, and the staff was holding the luggage: "Brother Wang, Lin Shan, you go back to sleep quickly." ”
"I'll send you back later. Lin Shan said.
"Are you still afraid that I will get lost when you arrive in Jinling, go back, I'm fine." Zhou Xiao shook his head and said to Zhang Yu: "Don't go over, it's not convenient for there to be too many people, wait for me to come over tomorrow and say hello together." ”
"Okay, listen to you. Zhang Yu yawned and entered the hotel.
"Let's go. Zhou Xiao turned around, Meng Ziyi was not in the ranks where she could rest, she made an excuse in the car, saying that she wanted to say hello to her partner, after all, the team boss was here, and as for the agent Sister Hua, she also turned a blind eye, and it was a good thing to have a good relationship with He Jiong and Chen Chichi.
The group went upstairs and left on different floors without forgetting to say goodnight to the director.
Zhou Xiao and the others went to the 26th floor, and they didn't call, they knocked on the door directly: "Check the room !!"
After waiting for more than ten seconds, the door clicked open.
"Yo, you're back. Chi Chi was dressed very neatly, and he definitely didn't mess around, so he let go of half of his body: "Teacher He, Zhou Xiao and Ziyi are here." ”
"Ouch, the great director is back. A highly recognizable voice sounded, and He Jiong came over to hug them.
Mr. He is really one of the few people who actually has no difference in the program, and the enthusiastic attitude seen on TV is not pretended.
"Long time no see!"
"Hello Mr. He. ”
"Come on, come in and sit. ”
There were just two of them in the room, there were a few beers on the table, and a bound book, Zhou Xiao looked down: "It's hard work for the two big guys, and they're still on the script so late." ”
"Then what should I do, I am entrusted with the matter of loyalty!" He Jiong smiled and took a beer: "Come on?"
"Okay. Zhou Xiao took it, took a few sips directly, and burped: "It's so cool." ”
"Where's Ziyi?"
"Thank you, Mr. He, I won't drink it, or my face will be swollen tomorrow, and when the movie is a big hit, I will drink it with you." Mencius's answer was watertight.
"Okay. He Jiong is not reluctant, it is natural for an actress to care about her image: "I'm tired of this time." ”
"It's about to fall apart!" In front of them, Zhou Xiao didn't need to hide: "I've run more than a dozen provinces, and the plane is about to become my home." ”
"Hahaha, that's how the movie was promoted. Chichi understood very well: "I'll rest when I come back this time, right?"
Zhou Xiao shook his head, took the wine bottle and touched the two: "I don't dare to rest, I have to run, I have to look at the box office on the first day." ”
"What about pre-sales, how many are there so far?"
"More than 13 million. ”
"Eh, that's not bad, it's still four days, and if you can get to 20 million, it's excellent, and it's not a prime time. Chi Chi has made a lot of movies, but he still knows: "If the premiere can have 50 million, it should be no problem to get 500 million." ”
Zhou Xiao nodded, in fact, these numbers can only be used as a reference, the pre-sale is to see the influence of individuals and promotional videos, roadshows, high and low, low and high, there is no absolute.
"What do you expect at the box office?" He Jiong was a little curious.
"The box office, of course, the higher the better, where can I be satisfied. Zhou Xiao said with a smile.
"Yes!" He Jiong found that the question was a bit stupid, and smiled: "Ziyi, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Ah?!" Meng Ziyi, who was playing soy sauce on the side, was suddenly asked, or such an abrupt question, a little overwhelmed.
He Jiong pointed at Zhou Xiao: "He is really good, young, handsome, can sing, act, and can be a director, he is no longer a potential stock, seize the opportunity." ”
"I... He... What's that..."Mencius's big eyes rolled wildly, and he looked at Zhou Xiao for help, but he didn't speak, just to watch the excitement.
Zhou Xiao smiled: "Teacher He, I actually have a girlfriend." ”
After speaking, he took Mencius's hand.
He Jiong: ???
Chi Chi clapped his hands and laughed: "Yes, Zhou Xiao is a man!"
Mencius was flushed, so he let him go.
"Oh my God. He Jiong slapped his forehead and stood up: "So you, you're already together?"
"Hmm. Zhou Xiao nodded, and Ms. Meng looked at the carpet, what a beautiful carpet.
"Then I also said that I would connect the two of you..."He Jiong crossed his waist: "Chichi, was I stupid just now?"
"Very!"
"Oh my God!"
