The big rehearsal of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, no matter the stars and actors who have not been here before, they all have to come over at this time, and they will rehearse by themselves, after all, it is a program for a billion audiences, no matter how much everyone complains, the fact is that no one can ignore this party. Sometimes, Ji Ming also understands the decision-makers of the Spring Festival Gala, such a magnitude of the gala carries a lot of additional meaning, even if they want to do some reforms, it is actually difficult.

Ji Ming has to cooperate with several singers this time, and he also has a dance part - the stage background of each song is different, and the connecting dances also contain different themes, and Ji Ming needs to lead the dance to string together the whole show.

There is nothing special about the rehearsal itself, and it is not the first time that he has participated in CCTV programs, or even national projects. is no stranger to CCTV's "non-discriminatory" box lunch treatment, especially a group of respected old gentlemen and old ladies are there, and there is no soil at all for the moths in the fan circle. A bunch of large and small traffic, completely at the bottom of the ecological chain, are polite to see anyone - otherwise, if it spreads, whoever plays a big name in the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, it is simply looking for death.

......

"Hey, Ji Ming'er, congratulations, you have been shortlisted for the Oscars. Deputy Director Chen, who came to supervise the battle, saw Ji Ming at a glance and was very enthusiastic.

It is also contradictory to say, in fact, there is a growing lack of enthusiasm for Oscar foreign language films in China, and it can be seen from the films sent in the past few years that "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Operation Red Sea" are completely unrelated to the Oscars.

But when the news of the nomination came back, the film system, the radio and television system, and the propaganda system were not small. Movies in the mainland have been nominated four times, three times are national teachers, "Ju Dou" and "The Red Lantern Hangs High", as well as "Hero", and the last one is Cheng Kaige's god film "Farewell My Concubine", but the closest one, that is, "Hero" in 03, has been 17 years so far.

In the past 17 years, the box office of Chinese films has been sitting in the second place, but the nomination has never been repeated, "Mo" has won a big victory in China and Europe, God and Buddha have changed, and at this time it has cut down the Oscar nomination, which is indeed a thing to boost - the quality of "Mo" is recognized at home and abroad, and there is no danger of "Oscar worship", so it can conquer North America, which simply belongs to the "achievements of spiritual civilization construction" and "the crystallization of the vigorous development of social and cultural undertakings".

Of course, Vice President Chen is also a member of this construction ranks.

"Thank you, just a nomination. ”

"I can't say that, if our country's film can be shortlisted, it will be even more amazing than others winning awards. Deputy Chen paused, as if he felt that the meaning in his words was not right, and cleared his throat: "The timing is special at this time, we have some achievements, and we are extremely nervous over there, under this premise, your movie can still be shortlisted, it is not easy." ”

It's not easy, and this year's Best Foreign Language Film has become the Best International Film, and the judges have changed from a small group of people to the judges of the entire American Academy of Film Science and Technology, which is consistent with other awards, providing some reverie.

"yes. ”

"You're going to the United States in the next year, right?" Vice President Chen was very kind.

"Uh, almost, yes, the main thing is that the movie is about to be released, and there have been some promotional trips in the past. Ji Ming is not very scared of a CCTV sub-station, after all, it is this era, for a performance artist with an international reputation, CCTV does not have the majesty of life and death: "The Oscar nomination, the distributor over there also put a lot of thought into it, although it sold out the distribution rights, they invited me to come over, so let's go." ”

"Haha, give the money, right? can't be cheaper than them, I don't think the box office will be less in the United States. ”

It's all about money, and it's really kind enough.

Ji Ming couldn't hold back, laughed for a while, and nodded: "Of course, whoever doesn't give money will work, it's just your matter in the station, everyone is obliged to contribute." ”

The two chatted very well here, I don't know how many people's eyes have entered, even though the star-making function of the Spring Festival Gala is no longer there, but for a group of fresh meat flowers, it is always a great honor, since it is glory, coming here, it is a little bit short-handed. Seeing that Ji Ming can talk and laugh with the big guy in the stage, he is naturally unpredictable.

Especially thinking of Ji Ming's "scenery" during this time, these popular stars who cheered countless people outside and had fans like a cloud of fans also had to give birth to unforgettable emotions- How to compare, you are still playing traffic, people have won the grand slam, you are still playing with website views, people have repeatedly broken the box office records in film history, you are still playing scheming marketing on the domestic Internet, people have swept the continent, set foot in North America, your award comes from this grand ceremony, that dinner, this night, that big award, but people are in Cannes Venice, and the shortlist is the American Academy Award and the British Academy Film Award, just say that right now, you have a face with the director of the station, but people are talking and laughing with the director......

The most important thing is that you are looking at others, comparing this and that, people may not even have the mind to compare - I don't know if there will be a feeling of being cold in a high place.

......

The news of this year's Spring Festival Gala rehearsal is very strict, and it was not until the big rehearsal that all kinds of materials began to disperse and warm up. CCTV Spring Festival Gala also has to be promoted, especially after inviting a lot of traffic, I have to tell fans, come and watch!!

The news of Ji Ming's participation in the Spring Festival Gala is actually not known now, but it is indeed this time.

"Ji Ming appeared in the CCTV studio and will participate in the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Rat, according to people familiar with the matter, Ji Ming may participate in a singing and dancing program. Since Ji Ming's debut, he has been rumored to participate in the Spring Festival Gala almost every year, but he has never been on it before, this is his first time participating in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and everyone must be looking forward to his performance. ”

- "When I think of my family singing a big song, my heart is warm." ”

- "Hahaha, he sings the main theme with a righteous face, especially devoted, and full of patriotism. ”

- "I want to see it, I want to see it, I really want to see it." ”

- "The TV in my hometown is broken, I was going not to buy it, I can't watch it for a few days a year anyway, and now I place an order immediately, I must watch my goose on TV." ”

There is a lively online scene, and offline is not far behind, this year can have such a big offline hot TV program, that is, CCTV Spring Festival Gala, after all, it is the official background sound of Chinese New Year's Eve activities such as playing mahjong, playing cards, and playing games.

Yin Ning is very busy now, although the Spring Festival is approaching, but their art training institutions have not yet taken a holiday, and there are even some short-term classes during the winter vacation. Whether it is a musical instrument or a dance, in fact, it takes a very long time to persevere, such as Sister Gao's guqin, without three or four years of perseverance, it is not decent at all, and the dance is even more so, Ji Ming himself is the foundation laid by Sister Xiaotan, if it is not like this, the effect of koi fish will probably be greatly reduced.

The winter vacation itself is the peak period for training, and you can take classes for the whole week during the winter vacation.

After the news of Ji Ming's Spring Festival Gala came out, the parents, grandparents, and grandparents who sent their children also had new topics.

"Hey, Mr. Yin, your Ji Ming is going to the Spring Festival Gala?"

"Are you going to watch the Spring Festival Gala?"

"When are you going to the capital?"

"Ji Ming can't come back for the New Year? Oh, I still want him to give guidance to our children, and our children also want to take the Chinese drama exam. ”

You're beautiful.

After Yin Ning dealt with it, she quickly hid, she was not responsible for these foreign affairs, and she usually chatted about it, whenever her son was outside to make wind and rain, she would inevitably be caught and spitting - she was too difficult! What was even more difficult was that her son's wind and rain were the norm, not occasional.

When "Silence" was released and exploded, the circle of friends was full of this kind of news:

"The child's violin teacher is Ji Ming's mother, and today I specially brought a family to support Ji Ming's new movie, which is so good!

A number of beautification pictures.

"After watching "Silence", I was a little depressed, if it weren't for Ji Ming's mother being my violin teacher in Yangyang, I would definitely not dare to watch this film. ”

"It's a great acting! It's a big star, Venice actor! Ji Ming's mother, I'm here to support @ Teacher Yin Ning"

Put a photo with Yin Ning - Yin Ning smiled a little reluctantly.

And so on, for a whole month, some of them have been photographed, and it's good to have ready-made photos. There are still some who didn't take a group photo, and there were no longer a few who came to catch people and take pictures, and Sister Li finally had to let Yin Ning rest for a few days, and find another teacher to substitute for her, and then ......

President, Ji Ming's mother has been on leave for three days.

Did you find it?

No, but found his godmother!!

Clap!

So none of Sister Li, Sister Tan, and Sister Gao escaped.

"This is Ji Ming's godmother, I grew up watching Ji Ming grow up!"

Do evil.

The last round of news has not stopped, and the Spring Festival Gala is here again, and Yin Ning is also a little tired - she has no plans to go to the scene to watch the Spring Festival Gala. After the Spring Festival Gala, Ji Ming will go to the United States to promote "Mo", at that time, he will take them to travel together for a few days, he works, they play, and then return to China together, and then Ji Ming goes to Europe to continue to promote the itinerary and tour the English version of the musical "Mo"...... Yin Ning thought, let's hurry up for the New Year.

After the Chinese New Year, everyone has their own troubles, poor ghosts, single dogs, and single dogs at home...... In short, they are busy with their own things.

......

Sister Li entered the office, quickly closed the door, looked at Yin Ning, and shook her head again and again: "I regret opening this school a little, hurry up and take a vacation, I can't wait to go out for a trip." ”

The school is now getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more teachers, although the Ji Ming effect is very powerful, but the four founders are indeed very effective, especially serious and responsible, and do not take profit as the first priority, after all, it is just to pass the time at the earliest...... So, they were tied.

"It's not been a few days. ”

"I'm going to take the art exam soon, or I'll blast them out. Sister Li had a hard mouth and sat down in the corner of Yin Ning's table: "That one said it again just now." ”

"Who?"

Sister Li pointed to it: "There is a family with a daughter, now the times are different, and the powerful families are willing to enter the entertainment industry." ”

"Ah~"

Yin Ning knows, that person is also studying classical dance, and he is training here, and he plans to take the Chinese opera exam this year - of course, the purpose of the people is not only Chinese opera, but also wants to recruit a fast son-in-law, this object, of course, is Ji Ming.

"Didn't you tell her that Mingming has a girlfriend?"

"Huh," Sister Li laughed for a while: "I said, how did she say that you know? and she is not married, so it doesn't matter if you know each other." Even if you can't get along, it's good to make friends. She thought well, and she could still make connections and pull her daughter away. ”

Yin Ning shook his head and sighed. In the past three years, this person is not the only one who has beaten Ji Ming's idea, if it wasn't for Ji Ming announcing his relationship early, it is estimated that he would have found more. It's strange to say, it seems that other celebrities don't have this trouble, of course, she didn't ask Ji Ming, maybe there is something like this behind people's backs.

"Does Ming'er have any plans to do anything with Chu Qing?"

"I didn't say it," Yin Ning thought for a while, and there was nothing to talk about with Sister Li: "The two of them are busy now, Mingming has never been able to spare time before, Qingqing is also competing all over the world, and she has to go to Germany to study." I think they mean that they probably want to stabilize a little bit before thinking about it. ”

"Isn't Ming'er going to stop and rest next year?"

"Probably. ”

"Hurry up and get things done, the people of the province are worried. Now, he has nothing to worry about, and he will get married. ”

Yin Ning glanced at the group photo on the desk, it was the same as the one on the wall at home, it was miniaturized, the child who was only a hundred days old, now he was thinking about getting married, time flies.

Sister Li and Yin Ning are not too worried about getting married, but Ji Ming's team is still quite like a big enemy.

Because Ji Ming also told them that it is not surprising that he hopes to enter a new stage of life with Chu Qing in the next year, the children can be released, and there is no need to wait too long for marriage. So the team is also thinking about a lot of plans and responses. When the relationship was first announced, Zhang Tianai and his agent gave a divine assist, and with the blessing of the koi, Ji Ming was almost unscathed. But marriage is still different, and at first glance, there are basically no male stars who are married in the circle who can stand at the peak of popularity.

Even if Ji Ming is not bad, he himself may not be willing to count his feelings too snobbish, but from the perspective of the team's responsibilities, trying to avoid damaging his business value is still something that must be considered.

Ji Ming himself is not bothered by this matter, even if he is open, it is impossible for a star to remain at the peak of popularity for a long time, after all, the nature of modern people chasing novelty cannot be changed, and they are only willing to watch a short video, and they can't ask them to pay close attention to him all the time. And from any point of view, he has nothing that he can't bear, after all, he has a girlfriend, and the whole network has known about it for 800 years, and marriage is also a natural thing.

In between rehearsals, he toured several Chinese versions of "Mo", and the Tiancheng cultural team began to prepare for the musical "The Return of the Great Sage......

The Spring Festival, for A-list stars, is always busy and boring.

Even if there is an itinerary for the Spring Festival Gala, there is no big difference.

......

Yang Ruyi looked at Ji Ming who was preparing the stage, and suppressed her breath, she and Lin Ran were all there, looking for a corner to squat, the atmosphere was too tense. Many singers on the official face usually smile, but at this time they also have a dignified face.

She pulled things out of her mental calendar and began to distract herself.

After a small wave of outbreaks, the box office stabilized at 4.1 billion, the company negotiated with Penguin about the price of online broadcast rights, and the cooperation of the international giant Netflix was found very early, but the price given began to be cheaper, and she suppressed it, but after "Silence" exploded in Europe, the other party quickly changed its attitude. Warners and Disney's streaming media departments are also very interested, a film that won the Venice Best Actor, was shortlisted for the Oscar foreign language film, set off a whirlwind in the UK, and was able to get more than 200 million US dollars in the European and American markets, which fully meets the needs of the streaming media battlefield in the strangulation, and is a blockbuster.

Netflix is a supergiant that invests $20 billion in content every year, Warner has just paid a billion dollars for "The Big Bang Theory", and Globic NBC has paid $500 million for "The Office".

In the end, the price of online broadcasting rights outside the mainland is likely to reach the level of 4-50 million US dollars.

At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the right of TV media broadcasting - Yang Ruyi found that the income window for foreigners to make movies is really much richer than that in China. TV rights are definitely tens of millions of dollars, and they can even be divided, North America, Europe, and other regions...... These brand-new jobs have brought tremendous pressure to Tiancheng Culture, if their follow-up works can still have such results, it is almost inevitable to expand the team on a large scale, and now, it is temporarily hired temporarily, and there is no way to do it if the cost is higher, such as lawyers in the United States, accounting firms in Europe...... It's all a must.

The outside world has doubts that the overseas box office of "Mo" can exceed 250 million US dollars, and Yang Ruyi himself has no way to judge, but if it is only overseas income, it is no problem to exceed 250 million US dollars.

In this way, Ji Ming has a 50% interest in "Mo", considering the complex distribution system and model, conservatively speaking, Ji Ming's income is also at the level of one billion yuan. is even much richer than the rights and interests of "Nezha" that I picked up.

Yang Ruyi looked at Ji Ming again, and felt that he might not need to worry about marriage for him, a movie made 10 billion, and he was worried about a P.

After thinking about "Mo", she can't help but think about the part of the musical, the box office of the Chinese version of "Mo" has exceeded 50 million, and the total box office will exceed 100 million next year, or even 100 million in a single year, which is very normal. "The Return of the Great Sage" is a teacher of "The Lion King", created by the British team introduced by Rudy and the Chinese team, and then will be staged in the Venice Theater in Chinese, depending on the feedback decided not to do the English version, after all, it is a Chinese mythological hero, the possibility of water and soil is very large, but with Ji Ming's popularity in the West District, it is no problem to make a profit. In China, the word Ji Ming is worth tens of millions of box office......

The income of the English version of "Mo" is less, but it is better in the long run, and it is also an income that cannot be ignored.

In addition, the BAFTA Awards are awarded in February, and the Oscars are a little later, but also in February – and if they do win the award, it will be a whole new achievement.

Tiancheng Culture is also looking for some good film and television targets, for Ji Ming's investment, many projects are willing to make some concessions, the superstition of the entertainment industry is really a good thing - another lucky Xu Zheng, it is said that he sold "Embarrassing Mother" for 2.8 billion, I don't know if it's true or not. But if you are lucky, you can have a good price whether you buy or sell.

Of course, the most important thing is Ji Ming's new movie, although there may not be a new work in the next year, Ji Ming seems to be quite interested in a certain proposal, which is not a new proposal - when discussing "Nezha", a producer said that the light should be the god universe, and the god trilogy directed by Wu Ershan is already a real life universe. So he mentioned it more, "Mountains and Seas Universe" is not bad, Ji Ming didn't have any movement, but after the other party said a few words of expectation and wishes, his interest became stronger.

If you want to be a real mountain and sea universe, such as "Mountains and Seas: Central Country", "Mountains and Seas: Qingqiu", "Mountains and Seas: Great Wilderness Dragon God" and the like...... Although it sounds like a bad movie, Ji Ming's actions are still very trusting. And how much box office can a universe bring?

and "The Wandering Earth 2......

New Art Film Project...... Ji Ming has always wanted to pat the urban social animals.

Thinking of this, Yang Ruyi felt a little idle, and was suddenly dispelled by the huge workload that might be in the future.

Yes!

"Sister Yang, come back to your senses," Lin Ran shook in front of Yang Ruyi: "The boss is coming soon." ”

Yang Ruyi looked at the past, as if he saw a golden Buddha.

Phew!

Ji Ming's program was placed in the penultimate before zero o'clock, and the performance went very smoothly, and the old artists each made a steady stroke. After the performance, everyone left, leaving early to save the crowd, and the old people had to go back to rest. He had just stepped into the broadcast hall when he heard the loud cheers of "Happy New Year" inside.

On the way home, looking out of the car window, the boy was holding the girl around, a group of young people kissing their lover, and a pair of elderly people looked at each other, warmly...... Really, it's the New Year.

"Happy New Year. Ji Ming took out a few red envelopes from his bag and gave them to Yang Ruyi, the year-end bonus has been given, this is a meaning, everyone is the same, 888 yuan.

"Happy New Year Boss!!"

Although I can't go home for the New Year, what else can I ask for if I can follow Ji Ming in this business. Yang Ruyi, Lin Ran, Tang Fan, Zhang Chen, all four of them said sincerely, after speaking, they also silently made a wish in their hearts, next year will be better!

I wish to have a P in my heart!

Foolish!

A car of fools!

is as stupid as them, as well as Yin Ning and Sister Li who sat in front of the TV and just watched Ji Ming's performance, Zhou Shaohong and Zhu Man of the National Theater, Tan Ziyang and Zhou Xin at home, and Wang Wei who went to the island country and watched the Spring Festival Gala across the sea with his object Chen Hao, Teacher Chen and Cheng Hao of Chinese opera, Xu Zheng and Taohong, Hu Xu, Li Lan, Yao Chengduo, Yin Tong...... So many of Ji Ming's relatives, friends, colleagues, teachers, and disciples...... are all stupidly making wishes in their hearts for the coming year.

The four seasons are safe, and the family and country are prosperous!

......

And the fool boss went home and saw the beautiful object on the sofa who was watching the last Spring Festival Gala program, and smiled more like a fool.

Chu Qing didn't go to the scene, speaking of which, she didn't go to the premiere of "Mo" several times, and she didn't go to the movie premiere - the news of Ji Ming's breakup was circulating in the market, adding fuel to the fire, and also comparing the breakup of several celebrity families with one or two, it was really a chicken feather, which made Ji Ming's fans worried.

If you want to say that there is no Yang Ruyi's handwriting behind this, Ji Ming himself doesn't believe it, it is nothing more than to let fans hang their hearts first, when they think of Ji Ming breaking up with Chu Qing, finding a bewitching slut in the circle, and then making one of this and that, it is really a lifetime of ruined fame - it is better to marry Chu Qing in a down-to-earth manner, and not to make any moths.

This kind of back and forth makes fans tired, and then in the face of the real marriage news, there is an excuse to comfort themselves, so as not to overreact.

It's all calculations.

Chu Qing is not cooperating with Yang Ruyi, she does not appear very much, mainly because her performance is entering a very struggling stage of improvement - although she has a wish blessing, but after all, it is not a hanging, this process is quite long. This process is also very egoistic, very intense, so much so that she herself is not very willing to be paid too much attention, but between training, performance and family, silently digesting and enduring it.

Until today.

Ji Ming entered the door and saw those eyes, as if he had returned to the afternoon in Sanlitun, the gloom was gone, and he returned to his roots, so he smiled more like a fool - Chu Qing had gone through the most critical period of her artistic career, and he felt that happiness and great satisfaction.

It doesn't matter if you're tired.

When Chu Qing saw Ji Ming's smiling face, he knew that he saw it. is different from Ji Ming, Ji Ming is swishing into the state, swishing out, swishing in, swishing out, swishing out again, out of control when acting in "Bright Red", the time to call Chu Qing in the middle of the night to ask for the requiem is long gone, going on stage to enter the play, getting off the stage to play, it is already the norm, and the understanding of performance and stage is like diving in still water, silent. And Chu Qing herself, but it took more than a year to get to the present step by step, in the middle, in fact, she endured very hard, Ji Ming also tolerated her a lot, quarrels can never be quarreled, even if she is far away in Europe, the schedule is so busy that she flies, Ji Ming will bear it silently, and then appease her self-blame and guilt afterwards.

But at this moment, the professional realm has made them more certain in life.

"Let's get married, secretly. Chu Qing walked over and hugged Ji Ming's neck.

This was the first thing they said after Ji Ming entered the door.

"Not secretly," Ji Ming wrapped his arms around her waist and put his forehead on his forehead: "I want others to know." ”

The eyes look at each other, and time seems to stand still.

The lights outside the window were lit, and the voices of the couple downstairs were faintly heard - "Don't come back, find your vixen, and accompany your little wife for the New Year." "Neurotic!" "I'm neurotic, if I hadn't been sick, I wouldn't have married you!" "I'm too lazy to argue with you." ”......

Burst.

"Find your vixen for the New Year. Chu Qing whispered, with a smile, afraid of being heard downstairs.

"You're my vixen. ”
