Early April.

The box office of "The King of Comedy" was released in the first week, and there was only a total of more than 200 million box office.

Although it is the weekly box office champion, although this box office data looks good, compared with the box office of seven or eight billion in the first week of "Kung Fu", this box office can really only be described as bleak.

was able to get so much box office in the first week, to a large extent, it was realized by the audience looking at the faces of Han Qiu and Zhou Xingchi.

If you change an actor to play Yin Tianqiu, or change a director to film. No matter how good the acting is and how beautiful the shooting is, the box office is estimated to be less than 200 million.

Not to mention 200 million, whether it can exceed 100 million is a question.

The "street fighting" predicted by the media seems to have come true.

In addition, the evaluation of the movie is also mixed, and those who think it is good say that it is the conscience of Xing Ye, and it is the best one of Zhou's movies.

If you think it's not good, you can say that the movie is not funny, too pretentious, and does not have the taste of previous Zhou's movies.

Some viewers said: "Da Xian'er is really the nemesis of the star master, laughing at the Journey to the West pit star, Chumen pit star, the three fools pit star, and now the king of comedy is also the star master." Where is this the king of comedy, is it obviously the king of tragedy? Even writing a song is pit Xingye. Alas, Director Ye is still good to Master Xing!"

This remark has been praised by many netizens.

When Han Qiu learned about it, he couldn't help but smile helplessly.

"Where do I want to get started... I just filmed him in the most real. ”

"No one believed me when I took some 'truths', but Ye Chen believed them when I took 'lies'. ”

"In these years, it's really a beautiful lie that is the most popular. I can't tell the truth, I can't say it. ”

......

After that, the box office of the King of Comedy passed so uneventfully.

There were no outbursts, no turns.

is like Yin Tianqiu in the movie, which passed ordinarily.

By the time it was released in early May, the total box office of the movie was only more than 500 million RMB.

People are used to watching Zhou Xingchi's comedies, laughing out loud while watching movies, and getting used to Zhou Xingchi pretending to slap his face in the movie, and getting used to him being funny and funny.

Now, everyone can't get used to it, and the box office of natural movies is not much higher.

Later, some media wanted to interview Zhou Xingchi, but Zhou Xingchi disappeared like evaporation from the world, and the reporter couldn't find it.

Han Qiu knew that Zhou Xingchi's family seemed to be traveling.

Before leaving, Zhou Xingchi called Han Qiu and said: "I'm going to go out for a walk, I've been busy making movies all these years, and I haven't enjoyed life much." Truman wants to go to Fiji, he wants to go to the outside world, and I want to go outside and see. ”

Han Qiu replied: "Have a good trip." ”

Later, Ye Chen also found Han Qiu and said, "Old Han, as soon as Xingchi leaves like this, I don't know how to make a movie." Without him, I don't have the motivation to make movies. ”

Han Qiu was speechless.

"So I wanted to take a break and come back to make a movie when I got interested one day. ”

Han Qiu nodded lonely: "Okay." ”

"Don't worry, I'll be back, I'm still waiting to be a director with Xingchi. ”

Ye Chen smiled freely.

........

Zhou Xingchi's departure is just a small episode, Han Qiu is the boss of the entire Huaxian, not Zhou Xingchi's exclusive boss.

After walking away, Hua Xian still has a lot of things waiting for him to do.

At the beginning of May, Wu Jing's "X-Men" had been produced, and the release date was set for the summer file.

The first season of Huaxian Animation's "Qin Shi Mingyue" has also been produced, and it is planned to land on Children's Satellite TV in early June.

There are also Li Feng's "Dark Flower" and Jin Byung-woo's "New World".

Blah blah

Han Qiu felt like a machine equipped with a perpetual motion machine, running non-stop on the road of the movie.

What the future is, he can't say clearly.

On Children's Day, Han Qiu and Zhou Yuxin took their two children to the beach for a whole afternoon.

Listening to the laughter of his two children and holding his beloved wife in his arms, he felt that he was much luckier than Zhou Xingchi.

At least in the drama of life, I didn't play it into a tragedy.

"Yuxin, I'm so happy. Han Qiu looked at the sunset, and under the sunset, the two children were running around on the beach barefoot.

Zhou Yuxin put her head in Han Qiu's arms and said softly, "What's the matter? Why are you sentimental today?"

"No, that's how I feel. ”

Zhou Yuxin shook his head: "You don't usually say such things." ”

"Am I usually so serious...."

"You're not serious, it's just that you like to keep things to yourself. ”

"Ugh. ”

"Have you been too busy lately?"

"It's okay. ”

"That's because "The King of Comedy" didn't do well at the box office?"

"No, I don't care how much the King of Comedy gets. Han Qiu shook his head.

"Well, if you don't want to say it, forget it. ”

"Actually, it's nothing. Han Qiu said with a smile: "I just think that the King of Comedy movie was originally an inspirational movie for small people, but because of Xingchi's own experience, the audience didn't have much inspirational feeling after watching it." ”

"Inspirational?"

Han Qiu nodded, looked at the two children laughing in front of him, and couldn't help hugging Zhou Yuxin tighter. "Well, inspirational, about happiness. Yu Xin, do you say that Yin Tianqiu is happy in the end?"

"I guess so. ”

"Perhaps. Han Qiu smiled faintly: "But Yin Tianqiu's experience is too tragic, it may be that Xingchi has substituted his past memories." So, I just want to make a really inspirational movie, not like Yin Tianqiu. ”

Han Qiu also knew in his heart that Zhou Xingchi's former career was indeed very miserable, and when he wrote the script, he did not let Yin Tianqiu soar like himself, but continued to suppress him, making him completely reduced to a small person.

It's too depressing, it's too tragic, maybe this is reality, but on the screen, the audience probably wasn't inspired by it.

The sentence "hard work, struggle" at the beginning of the movie turned into a sigh of "Actually, I don't have much talent for acting" in the end.

Hearing Han Qiu's words, Zhou Yuxin was stunned, "Inspirational movie?"

"That's right. Han Qiu nodded: "The king of comedy is a little sad, then I will give the audience a happy ending." Just like me now, a very happy ending. ”

Zhou Yuxin's eyes bent slightly, and the smile on her face was even more gratified.

At this time, Mu Xi jumped over, grabbed Han Qiu's hand, and pulled it out vigorously, "Dad, let's build sand with us." ”

"Mom, come too. ”

After speaking, Mu Xi took one by one hand and walked to Mu Chen's side with the two.

Mu Chen was kneeling on the ground, pulling the sand in front of him. But his clumsy little hands couldn't figure out the shape he wanted.

With the addition of Han Qiu and Zhou Yuxin, the "works" of the two children slowly took shape.

A painting sketched out of sand.

A picture of a family of four.

Han Qiu and Zhou Yuxin's villains stood on either side, and in the middle were the two smaller villains.

In the painting, Han Qiu is holding an umbrella to shield the two children from the wind and rain.

Mu Chen suddenly said cutely: "Dad, when I grow up in the future, I will give you an umbrella." ”

Han Qiu gently pinched Mu Chen's nose: "Okay." ”

Maybe happiness is something we can only pursue, or maybe it's something we can't pursue anyway.

Or maybe it's something as simple as the one in front of you right now.
