Early in the morning, half past five.

Feng Bicheng opened his eyes and struggled out of a strange dream.

In the dream, it seems that there is a big flood, the entire Shuntianfu is flooded, I struggled to move the mattress away, and then removed the head of the bed, sat on the wooden bedside, smashed the window, and floated out, halfway to meet my parents and parents, and then rushed to the company, Mr. Qi and Mr. Li They are all there, are dismantling the desk, Mr. Li just gave the desk to the two employees, let them go first, and shouted that to the west, Jundu Mountain should not be flooded, and then paddled the head of the bed to the past, invited him to come up, he seemed to hesitate, and then really came up, with Mr. Qi, and smiled at himself, as if he also said a word"Thank you" - in the dream, the buoyancy of your bedside seems to be much more than those desks in the company?

Take two deep breaths and come to your senses.

Then, rubbing his eyes, scratching his eyebrows and nose, he rolled over and sat up—since last fall, he had stopped drinking, and had completely abandoned his previous nightlife, and had gone to bed early every day except writing and reading, so he had to get up early in the morning—even though he was now in a state of leisure.

Get up, wash your face, brush your teeth, get dressed, think about it, go to the kitchen to turn on the fire, skillfully wash the barley soaked last night twice, then connect the water, boil the water, and put it in the pot.

Look at it, it's not even six o'clock.

I went to the living room to open my computer, went into my personal mailbox and looked at it, and sure enough, there was an email.

I open it and look at it seriously.

It's yesterday's box office stats.

On the fourth day of its release, and the first Monday, the scheduling rate of "Big Names" was slightly lowered by major theaters, which seemed to be preparing for the release of "Lonely Smoke in the Desert", but the 58.3% scheduling rate and the average attendance rate of 49% still made the box office of "Big Names" as high as 23.08 million yesterday!

In other words, after four days of release, the total box office exceeded 100 million!

It's two days faster than "Red Sorghum"!

In four days, the cumulative box office has reached 111.78 million.

For the first time after waking up, Feng Bicheng finally showed a faint smile on his face.

There is no doubt that this is the best box office film in his life, and it has even far surpassed his famous work a few years ago.

After staring at it for a moment, he took a deep breath, put away his smile, and then closed the web page and shut down.

Take out your phone and turn it on.

After the boot is completed, just like yesterday, as soon as the operator's signal is connected, it starts to ring non-stop.

After waiting for about two or three minutes, it finally stopped ringing, and at this time, the mobile phone showed that his mobile phone had a total of seventeen missed calls and thirty-nine unread text messages from eight o'clock last night to just now.

Tap on a missed call to see it from start to finish.

There is no company, there is no parent's, and then quit.

Click on the text message, some of them are former friends, and there has been almost no contact in the past half a year, and some are simply unfamiliar numbers, which are not saved on the mobile phone.

Click on one casually, and the content is: Chengzi, don't ignore buddy!, buddy, break 100 million buddy, come out and drink some to celebrate!

This is a producer I met when I was in the circle before.

How to say it, a very eye-catching person.

The so-called very eye-catching means that he judges you very accurately whether you have potential, is exquisite, and can easily offend people, but he is still very good at watching guests serve food when he treats people who are already destined to not get up.

Quit.

Feng Bicheng's face was expressionless.

Another one: "Hello Director Feng, I am the general manager of Pacific Film and Television Culture Company, my name is Xu Pei, first of all, congratulations to the box office of "Big Shot" on 110 million in four days, I wanted to call to congratulate, but I asked a friend for your number, and you turned off your phone." I hope to be able to reply when you are free, and I would like to communicate with you about your next movie. We are sincere. Finally, please forgive me for my presumptuousness. Xu Pei, respectfully!"

Exit, find another random one, and click on it.

"Brother Cheng, I'm the sixth son, your eternal little follower! When can we have a meal together? In the past few days, several companies have hoped that I can help contact you, and they are all very interested in you, and they want to talk to you about the next play, they are all very sincere! I saw the text message and called back, please, brother!"

Quit.

The face is expressionless.

The flip button continues to be pressed, and many text messages are seen by the name or the first sentence, and there is no interest in clicking on it at all, until a somewhat familiar number suddenly appears.

The finger paused, and subconsciously clicked away.

"Brother Feng, I'm Wen Yuanyuan, congratulations on the success of your new movie!"

Sure enough, it was her.

"Half a Hero" After filming and release, the cost of more than 3 million, the box office of more than 20 million, he Feng Bicheng can be regarded as a small fire, many companies have taken a fancy to his potential, spent money, and invited him to direct, then Wen Yuanyuan just emerged, the momentum is very good A small vase, I also like her very much, and later opened a new play, smashed a lot of salary, and pulled her into the crew, everyone was still ambiguous for a while, I felt quite exciting at the time, thinking that if this drama is popular again, I will get up, and at that time, no matter how awesome you are, Xiaohuadan, it is estimated that you can win it, and as a result, pounced, and never contacted again。

At that time, I was also discouraged, and I vaguely felt a little sorry for others, but thinking about the salary she received that was much higher than her status at the time, I didn't feel anything in my heart.

It's just that looking back now, it's true that I can't live with others.

Xiaohuadan, who originally had a good momentum, has taken a sharp turn all the way since "The Heroic Hen of the World" pounced, and in recent years, she should have almost never made any headlines, and there have been almost no good film appointments.

After thinking about it, hesitating and hesitating, he clicked on the reply and typed a few words: Thank you! I always owe you an apology for what happened back then, I made you a pit, I'm sorry!

But the finger stopped on the send button for a long time, and finally deleted all the words typed out one by one.

If you have the opportunity another day, I hope to make up for the guilt in my heart, but now, it will be easy to misunderstand people to say such things - the actresses in the film and television industry have the ability to fight snakes and sticks, and he still knows it very well after so many years in the circle. What's more, her situation has not been good in the past few years.

Sigh and quit.

Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations, break 100 million, break 100 million, break 100 million.

I'm particularly interested in you, the next film, let's talk about it, sincerity.

Feng Bicheng's face was expressionless.

Add it up to about seven or eight minutes, go through the information that should be browsed, and then exit and silently press the shutdown button.

Take a look, go to the kitchen to take care of the fire, turn it to the lowest, then he gets up, takes the keys and changes his shoes, and goes out.

The weather at the end of April is breezy and smooth.

At six o'clock, the sun has just come out, the air is fresh, and the tender red sun shines on the body, which makes people have an indescribable pleasant feeling - many people have begun to go out in a hurry around, but some elderly people are walking around leisurely and exercising.

Feng Bicheng lowered his head so much, thinking about things in his head, jogged all the way for ten or twenty minutes, and then walked back silently, walked for a while, jogged for a while, and waited for about forty minutes when he returned home.

Whether my parents say it, or in my own memory, I haven't had the habit of exercising when I was a child, and I have seen the problem of mischievous since I was a child. But since "Big Shot" ended all the locations, finished it, and returned to Suncheonfu, one day, he suddenly got up very early and started such a jog.

I remember that my mother said before that barley porridge is to dispel dampness, and for fat people like myself, moderate exercise and drinking barley porridge have a particularly good effect, so they even learned to boil barley porridge.

In the past, I didn't seem to care much about anything except movies, and food, drink and merry, but now, every day without being reminded by anyone, I always remember to soak the barley at night before going to bed - over the course of a few months, it has gradually become a habit.

And, he thought it was good.

I feel like I'm refreshed every day, and I'm so good.

When he got home, he looked at the pot, stopped the fire, covered the lid and continued to simmer in the pot, and then he went to take a shower and change his clothes, and then he came over to bring out the barley porridge.

To tell the truth, the taste of pure barley porridge without adding anything else is not too wonderful, but every morning in this bowl of barley porridge, Feng Bicheng always swallows slowly and eats it very sweetly.

After eating the porridge, washing up, look at the time, seven o'clock.

Out.

Today Tuesday, sunny with a slight southerly wind.

"Lonely Smoke in the Desert" is about to be released, and the road that is often taken is slightly blocked.

Came to the company, parked the car in the basement, took the elevator directly from the basement to the ninth floor, and nodded to the security guard on duty on the ninth floor when he got out of the elevator, and also got a smile from the other party.

The company was empty.

Cleaning is a certain part of the company's system, but in some important places, the film and television department has agreed that no one other than a few directors and producers within the company can enter.

For example, the film library, for example, the editing room.

As one of the company's previous contracted directors, Feng Bicheng has an office of his own, which is not big, and after putting down a desk, he can barely accommodate a two-seater sofa and a small coffee table in the corner. After the editing was officially released, everyone returned to the road and the bridge, which was considered an amicable termination, but for a while, the company did not arrange for other people to move in, and Feng Bicheng continued to come over every day, wipe it everywhere, wipe it, and take care of the pot of Junzi Orchid he bought last winter.

He thought about it, if the company was ready to evict people, or arranged for someone else to move in, all he needed to take away was this pot of Junzi Orchid.

After cleaning up in his own room - in fact, there is not much to clean up, he is not working here now, because there is no business to do, and no one arranges work for him, plus he comes to clean up every day, so it is very clean - the water that was boiled just now has been boiled, sit on the sofa for a few minutes, wait for the temperature of the water to drop down a little, pinch a little Longjing tea and put it in the cup, pour the water, and then get up and go out.

Before the key given to him by the company could be recovered, he easily opened the door to the editing room.

The smell of smoke is strong and rushing.

If a non-smoker comes in suddenly, he can choke a lot.

Because only the director, producer and a few editors can come in, there is a duty schedule arranged, and everyone takes turns cleaning, but the usual situation is that if Li Qian wants to cut the film recently, or keep an eye on the progress of a certain film, it will be very clean and exquisite, but if Li Qian has not paid close attention to the film recently, and there are few people running here, it will be a little unclean here - the last person in charge of cleaning is usually Han Shunzhang or Lu Lingxi. The two of them are the most picky about the environment, love cleanliness, and have a relatively low tolerance.

Feng Bicheng went in, turned on the lights, turned on the ventilation fan, turned on the highest gear, and then cleaned the ashtrays one by one - don't ask why there is this here, in fact, it is stipulated that smoking is not allowed here, but there is.

Empty, clean, mop, wipe and wipe.

I cleaned up the whole set and felt much cleaner, but the time had already passed in twenty minutes.

It was close to half past eight.

He put away the mop and the like, cleaned it, and put it back in the bathroom.

At this time, go back, the tea is slightly warm, and drink it slowly.

In about ten minutes, the sound of walking, talking, and greeting began to appear outside one after another - now, well, in fact, since last year, no one will take the initiative to come to his office to say hello, Jin Han and Lu Lingxi have no friendship in the first place, Han Shunzhang and his wife have always been silent, Sun Yuting is a firm Li Qian party, and he is annoyed with himself, so Huang Ge occasionally comes over to talk about things, dramas, and contracts, and will come in to sit for a while, since "Big Wrist" 's play is finished, Bai Yujing seems to feel good about himself, he will say hello and chat a few words when he meets from time to time, Zhao He is a good person, and his attitude towards himself has always been so tepid, and the screenwriting team has regarded himself as Li Qian's descendant from the beginning, and he has neither a good impression nor a rejection of himself, but after that incident, the screenwriting team has collectively ignored themselves.

After drinking a cup of tea, he refilled another cup for himself.

After a while, halfway through the tea, someone knocked on the door, Feng Bicheng got up and opened the door, and the young man from the internal service department delivered a few newspapers from each office of the film and television department on time.

This one happens every day, and it definitely doesn't fall behind.

Although, in fact, he is going to leave now, from Mr. Qi to Mr. Li, and then to Jin Han and Han Shunzhang on the side of the film and television department, they will never stop him, and he only needs to go to the legal department once, and everyone can terminate the contract peacefully.

However, the office that belongs to him does not arrange for anyone else to come in, and the newspapers belonging to his office will be delivered on time every day, and even the basic salary of each month has not been broken, and it is always entered into the salary card on time.

It's just that there is no one to give him a new job.

Of course, he is a contracted director, as long as he is with the crew, even if it is an assistant director or an assistant director, he will be paid according to work, and the money is much higher than these guaranteed wages.

In fact, he knows that as long as he is willing to go out for a walk now, countless invitations and opportunities will be handed to him - every single one will be a lot of money.

But this salary has not been broken, so he will continue to sit here.

And now, the publicity of "Big Names" has been set from the beginning, and Huang Ge and Bai Yujing are not allowed to participate, and Han Shunzhang is in charge, so if you have to talk about work, in fact, the only thing he needs to do when he sits in the office every day is to drink tea and read the newspaper.

Idle like the retirees of those state units.

Sips of tea.

Most of today's newspaper entertainment pages are emphasizing, accentuating and rendering the upcoming release of "Lonely Smoke in the Desert", as well as the inevitable conflict between Du Weiyun, a martial arts masterpiece and the box office dark horse "Big Shot".

Four days after its release, with a box office of 110 million, no one or any media would underestimate the power of such a movie. What's more, yesterday was a weekday, and this movie still won more than 20 million single-day box office, and its strength should not be underestimated in the slightest.

Feng Bicheng flipped over, watched, drank tea, and then heard Jin Han's loud voice outside.

It's kind of weird.

The company's senior management meeting is Monday morning, and the film and television department's own regular meeting is Wednesday morning. When there are no regular meetings and no other arrangements, Jin Han seems to prefer to stay at home and hold back the script, only occasionally running over to the company's audio-visual studio to pull films, and he also likes to drag someone to watch with him.

When he first joined the company, he was quite envious, and he never had the idea of wanting to replace him - like Jin Han, he is too chic!

Filming a play handed over by Li Qian every year, there is Li Qian's book, as long as you follow his requirements, don't make your own decisions, and designate Red! What Jin Han needs to ensure as a director is that the picture is beautiful and meets Li Qian's requirements, and then it's OK! And such a job is very easy, even if Jin Han has made money for the company, next, the company will give him a budget, let him tinker with those things he likes, and make those literary films that no one likes to watch and basically can't sell at the box office.

That's it, because he came early and started with the company, so the position of film and television director has been sitting until now, from Li Qian to Qi Jie, they have never mentioned the intention of beating him or even replacing him.

But today, he is like a mirror in his heart, Jin Han, the film and television director, has actually begun to be reduced to an ornament, to put it bluntly, he is actually just an ordinary contracted director with a relatively high status now.

Because you always don't like to take care of things, you always don't care about things, you always don't care about things, and slowly things don't look for you.

As a corresponding example, there are big and small things in the film and television department, as long as there is something, everyone goes to Han Shunzhang, so although he is only a film and television manager in name, Han Shunzhang is already the first person in the film and television department except Li Qian - a person who is willing to be responsible and hard, and unconsciously turns the responsibility into a position.

A bowl of good porridge is always boiled slowly like this.

…………

A quarter past nine o'clock, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.

Feng Bicheng was a little stunned - this phone is an internal line, and it can be dialed externally, but if you want to call in from the outside, you have to go through the main station, so it is a little troublesome, when I first entered the company, Feng Bicheng also complained, I think Minghu culture is too picky, and I am reluctant to directly connect to the outside line when installing an office phone, so from the beginning, Feng Bicheng was not happy to use it, and he never said his office number to the outside world.

In fact, this phone has not rang on the table for half a year.

Although Feng Bicheng wiped it almost every day.

After being stunned, he put down the newspaper and got up to pick up the phone.

"Is it Director Feng?"

"Uh, it's me, you're ......"

"I'm here in the general manager's office, and now I'll inform you that at ten o'clock in the morning, there is a small meeting in the No. 2 conference room on the ninth floor, and I need you to arrive on time, is there a problem?"

"Oh...... Oh, no problem, definitely on time!"

"Okay, thank you, please hang up!"

Click, the phone hangs up.

Feng Bicheng didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Meetings in the company...... How would you call yourself?

Is it to celebrate?

It's not right, although I didn't participate, but it is said that at the celebration banquet of "Red Sorghum", Mr. Qi said that if "Big Names" passed the box office of 300 million, a celebration banquet would be held, but now it is only 110 million?

So, probably not.

Thinking about it again, I thought of a possibility, and suddenly my heart was hot!

Could it be that Mr. Li saw this box office and felt that he could still try to save it......? Uh, no, it won't!

If it is the CEO of those film and television companies outside, it is estimated that he will immediately be excited when he sees the box office of breaking 100 million yuan in four days, even if it is Zhou Yanghua, Hu Fei, Yuan Ke, and other big names behind the scenes, it is impossible not to be excited in the face of such a box office - at that time, it is estimated that even if he looks down on himself in his heart, he will greet him with a smile! Who is not welcome a person who can make money? Who is not welcome a director who can make money?

But on the contrary, he knew that Li Qian was definitely not this kind of person.

First of all, his horizons are not so narrow, and his level is not so subordinate.

The book he came out, his producer, and Han Shunzhang, the big housekeeper of the film and television department he trusted and relied on the most, personally took charge of the producer, and the box office just broke 100 million, he may be happy, but he will definitely not be as happy as he thought he just thought.

Not to mention 100 million, even if it is over 300 million, he may not be able to look at himself squarely!

And he doesn't seem to be the kind of person who particularly values money.

Although he also likes high box office, really, the feeling he gives and gives himself is just that: he only does what he thinks is right, but he doesn't necessarily do what makes money.

Therefore, the movie has been made, cut, and released, and it must mean that the favor he owes to his father has been paid off, and the promise he made to himself has been fulfilled.

Therefore, it makes no difference whether the box office is high or low.

Thinking like this, Feng Bicheng slowly calmed down again.

He didn't have the heart to read the newspaper, he looked at the time, it was still early before the meeting, and the meeting was on the ninth floor, so he simply got up and sat down at the desk, turned on the computer, and prepared to read the reactions and evaluations on the Internet.

When he turned on the computer, he habitually had to log in to the company's official website first, but before he could click on the web page favorites, he saw his name at first glance from the default homepage of iFLYTEK, which had been opened.

Flashes by, then quickly finds, focuses.

Click on.

Suddenly, he understood why he suddenly had a meeting today, and the meeting would call him again.

It's time to come, and it's finally here.
