Wang Zijun took Lin Qingxia's hand and entered the "Beautiful Metropolis" theater together, handed the two tickets into the ticket window, only to see the ticket inspector break it casually, and then handed back the broken ticket that had been torn off the ticket stub.

"What's going on?" The two remaining tickets in Wang Zijun's hand actually had only one ticket corner.

After two lifetimes, Wang Zijun is the first time to see such a ticket torn up.

Lin Qingxia asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Nothing." Wang Zijun took her hand and entered the theater.

After entering, Wang Zijun remembered the problem, the ticket inspector just now tore off the seat number on his movie ticket, where should he sit?

"Rub, just sit casually." Wang Zijun and Lin Qingxia found a seat in the middle and sat down.

Wang Zijun took a look and found that almost everyone was sitting around with tickets, how could this happen? Mirador Cinema is one of the best movie theaters in Taipei, and the management will not be so bad.

At this moment, a woman wearing a hat and sunglasses suddenly sat down next to Wang Zijun.

Wang Zijun saw that this woman seemed to be a little familiar, and before he could take a closer look, the woman had already taken off her glasses, and it was actually Qiong Yao.

"Sister Chen, what a coincidence, why are you here?" Wang Zijun was surprised.

Qiong Yao smiled: "Of course my movie is coming, only in the cinema can I really feel the quality of the film." ”

"That's right." Wang Zijun thought of getting a premiere, but now there are not a few gossip entertainment magazines in Taiwan (only TV Weekly, Taiwan Television Weekly, which are TV station publications and literary supplements of some newspapers), what is the use of getting a premiere?

Why don't you get a professional entertainment magazine first? Wang Zijun thought about it.

"By the way, Sister Chen, what's going on?" Wang Zijun took out the two broken tickets that were torn to only one corner and asked, "Why did you tear up the seat number?" ”

"Well, everyone in the circle knows this." Sister Chen smiled, "Do you know who makes the most money in theory when a movie is produced and distributed in Taiwan?" ”

"Of course, it's the producer, and it's probably the theater." Wang Zijun thought for a while and said.

"No, the most earned in a movie is always the political axe." Qiong Yao explained, "The income of a movie ticket, the political axe directly takes away 30% of the tax, and the rest can be shared by the theater chain and the producer." If you think about it, whether it is a theater chain or a producer, it costs money, and the political axe has no income. ”

Wang Zijun was shocked, in this way, wouldn't it directly eradicate the soil for big investment and big production!

You think, if your movie costs 1 million and the box office is 5 million, but you are taken 1.5 million by the political axe before you can handle it, and when you divide it again, the producer can get more than 1 million at most, and you can still make hundreds of thousands after excluding the cost. But if it is a movie with an investment of 10 million and a box office of 20 million, then 6 million will be withdrawn by the political axe first, and the producer will be able to get a maximum of 7 million to 8 million later, and he will not even get back the cost.

It's no wonder that the mainstream of Taiwanese films has always been small-budget literary films, and they were eventually overtaken by Hong Kong films.

It's just a bandit, I didn't do anything, I actually took 30% of the box office directly!

If you invest 8 million to shoot "Bloody Lonely City" according to your own ideas, it will not be a cup to the extreme, and Taiwan's local box office must be at least 25 million or more to start making a profit!

Fortunately, Qiong Yao's next words made Wang Zijun feel a little better: "So, the producer and the theater chain came up with this countermeasure - running tickets!" It is to collect a movie ticket and tear off most of it, return a small part to the audience, and then collect a movie ticket, and tear off a corner of the original ticket and return it to the audience. In this way, a movie ticket can be sold as three or four, and the political axe can only mention about 1% of the tax. ”

Wang Zijun sweated wildly, and sure enough, there are policies and countermeasures under the top, no matter what time it is, the Chinese nation is a nation with superb wisdom.

Soon, the movie began.

The words Firebird Company appeared on the screen, and Meng Yunlou, played by Wang Zijun, took a car to the heroine Han Ni's home.

"Ah, that's handsome." Some female audiences in the theater exclaimed in unison when Wang Zijun appeared, which made their boyfriends around them very cold.

Qiong Yao teased: "Qingxia, you have to watch him closely, there are many women waiting to grab it." ”

Lin Qingxia pretended to be disdainful and said, "Cut, I'm not uncommon, there are many boys chasing me in school." ”

Wang Zijun took out the popcorn and distributed it to the two women around her, poked at the flaws in her words and said, "No, there are still boys in your girls' school?" ”

Lin Qingxia smiled: "Of course I chased it from another school. ”

With the development of the plot of the movie, Hanni appeared in the music of the piano, and her gentle and beautiful image was very amazing. Wang Zijun heard a boy in the back row exclaim: "Who is this actress?" It's so beautiful! ”

"Who do you say is pretty, is she prettier than me?" The boy's girlfriend asked unhappily.

"You're not as beautiful as anyone else, okay?" The boy actually insisted on his point of view.

"What did you say?"

"I'm just telling the truth, or Iru and they will judge later."

"You don't even want to coax me, I will ignore you in the future."

"Eh, don't go, the movie hasn't finished yet."

"Look at your actress go!"

Wang Zijun listened to the conversation between the two behind him, and smiled into Lin Qingxia's ear: "It seems that I have to look at you a little better, your charm is too great." ”

Lin Qingxia said with some unconfidence: "Am I really beautiful?" But I think I'm so ugly. ”

Wang Zijun kissed her on the face and said, "Then you are a cute ugly duckling, and one day you will become a beautiful white swan." ”

Lin Qingxia smiled happily: "Even if you lie to me, I'm very happy." ”

The film has a small **, Han Ni played by Lin Qingxia is actually dead after Meng Yunlou played by Wang Zijun returned to Taiwan. At this time, many viewers who have not read Qiong Yao's original work are not satisfied, and they stand up and scold, and many people even scold Qiong Yao for being neurotic, how can the heroine be written to death.

When Qiong Yao heard the scolding, she could only hide there and smile bitterly, of course, being able to make so many viewers scold can be regarded as a success of the film.

Fortunately, an identical little eyebrow soon came out, which finally soothed the audience's wounded hearts. Immediately afterwards, the audience's anger shifted to Meng Yunlou's father, who prevented the love between the two, until the hero and heroine finally won the love and kissed each other, and then responded with warm applause.

Wang Zijun felt the emotional changes of the people around him, and couldn't help but sigh: What a cute fan! If this drama is released in a few decades, it is estimated that a small half of the audience is making love, a small half of the audience is dozing, and the rest have already left the theater in advance, where will they be so engaged.

After the theme song and the behind-the-scenes crew sheet came out, some people have already started to leave. Qiong Yao and Lin Qingxia sharpened their ears to listen to the audience's evaluation, especially Lin Qingxia, for fear that some people would say that she did not act well.

"How can Hanni die? It's so hateful, I cry when I see it. ”

"Isn't there still a Tang Xiaomei?"

"How can that be the same? Jenny is gentle and reasonable. And she is more beautiful than Tang Xiaomei. ”

"Han Ni and Tang Xiaomei are good actors or not."

"Hanni is just more beautiful, with long hair, gentle and temperamental. Unlike Tang Xiaomei, who has short hair and a bad temper. ”

"I'll update Huan Xiaomei, more honest girls."

“……”

"Hey, don't you see clearly, what's the name of the actor who plays the heroine?"

"I don't know, I didn't look carefully at first, I asked everywhere."

"I envy her so much, she can actually kiss Wang Zijun, do you think I'm going to be an actor too."

"Just you?"

"What's wrong with me, I'm very talented in acting."

"I think that actress will definitely be popular, she is so beautiful, I will be her fan in the future."

"You don't know this, that woman's name is Lin Qingxia, and she is Wang Zijun's girlfriend."

"You lie, how can Wang Zijun have a girlfriend! Wang Zijun is mine. ”

"Less nymphomaniacs, I spent the summer in Hong Kong, and I have long been crazy over there, magazines and newspapers are everywhere, and a little girl committed suicide when she heard about it."

"No, how could this happen?"

"How old is that little girl?"

"I heard that I was only 13 years old, and after being toyed with by Wang Zijun, I couldn't figure it out before I committed suicide."

"Did you get it back at last?"

"No, I heard that I took five bottles of sleeping pills!"

"It's scary......"

Wang Zijun listened to the convulsions of his facial muscles on the side, his seventh uncle, the gossip spirit in Hong Kong is really strong, what has he become?

Fortunately, there is almost no negative news about him in Taiwan, and after watching this movie, die-hard fans have increased a lot. After all, it was only a record before, and many fans were familiar with his voice, but they had only seen a flat photo of him. After makeup and dressing up in the movie, they were pleasantly surprised to find that Wang Zijun was even more handsome than in the photo.

There has never been a shortage of box office for Qiong Yao dramas, generally only about five million per play, and more than six million for special hits. But after the feedback of the theater, the box office in the first week was close to one million, and it dropped slightly in the second week, but there were also 800,000, and if it goes on like this, the final box office will break the 7 million mark, which is definitely the influence of Wang Zijun.

Only a week later, Qiong Yao really did not break her promise, and gave Wang Zijun and Lin Qingxia a big red envelope of 200,000 yuan respectively. This move made Wang Zijun look up to her, at least Qiong Yao was not as greedy for money as the legend.

Wang Zijun was originally famous, but this movie did not bring him much change, and some people praised Wang Zijun's performance in place.

The biggest influence is Lin Qingxia, after the film was released, many people, especially men, asked everywhere about the heroine of the movie.

Many students at Jinling Girls' High School also watched the movie, and now Lin Qingxia is walking on campus and is quickly recognized. There is less gossip about her, but there are still rumors that maliciously slander her to become famous when she climbed up to Wang Zijun.

Immediately came invitations from various producers and directors, although Lin Qingxia insisted that she was studying now and had no time to film. But those producers were not discouraged, some people actually rushed directly to Lin Qingxia's house, forced the money into the hands of Lin Qingxia's parents, and then left the script and the time and place of filming.

Until Lin Qingxia came home from school, the family stared at each other, guarding a pile of money and not knowing what to do.
