Guan Zhilin's temperament is very lazy, not only reflected in not doing a good job of filming, she can't even get up in the morning, and every time she sleeps until mid-morning before she gets up to eat in a daze.

Li Jiaxin is completely different, although she is also greedy for enjoyment, she works very hard.

Tossed until midnight last night, Li Jiaxin still woke up early in the morning. She opened her eyes in a daze, saw a pair of dog men and women entangled in the bed, and immediately recalled the absurdity of last night.

"Woke up so early?" Kang Jianfei took the arm that Switch Zhilin put on him, sat up and asked.

"Well, I can't sleep when I wake up." Li Jiaxin replied while dressing.

Kang Jianfei put on a sports T-shirt and shorts and ran downstairs to practice boxing. Li Jiaxin put on her clothes, looked back at Guan Zhilin, who was sleeping like a dead pig, and suddenly felt a sense of emptiness and dazedness.

To be honest, Li Jiaxin does have a good impression of Kang Jianfei, and this good impression became like it after the two broke through the relationship between men and women, but it is still far from the word "love". Staying by Kang Jianfei's side to be his lover is completely for money, this relationship once made Li Jiaxin feel sad for a while - no woman is cheap in the world.

Now that she is not only Kang Jianfei's mistress, but also serving him with another woman, Li Jiaxin feels that her last shred of dignity has been torn apart.

After Kang Jianfei finished punching, he went to the bathroom to take a shower. When she returned to the living room, Li Jiaxin had already asked the Filipino maid to prepare breakfast and have breakfast together like a normal couple.

When Kang Jian flew out, Li Jiaxin kept sending him to the car before coming back, sitting in the empty living room with nothing to do, not knowing what to do.

Li Jiaxin suddenly missed the old days, either studying and doing housework, or shooting advertisements to make money to subsidize the family, and occasionally had time to go out with a few friends, and she was already very happy. Now that I have money, I have a lot of time to do whatever I want every day, but I am more empty than before.

Of course, if Li Jiaxin goes back to live her previous poor life, she won't be able to do it.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Guan Zhilin wore this nightdress and walked over with a draped hairdress.

Li Jiaxin raised the bar and said, "This is Brother Fei's house, why should I go?" ”

Guan Zhilin stretched and said, "I'm too lazy to quarrel with you, is there breakfast?" ”

"It seems that there is still a point, let's go to the kitchen and see for yourself." Li Jiaxin didn't have the heart to quarrel with Guan Zhilin, what did the two second wives have to fight for?

Li Jiaxin was bored flipping through fashion magazines, and after reading a magazine, Guan Zhilin had already packed up and appeared in front of her in a bright body.

Seeing Guan Zhilin carrying this bag in her hand, Li Jiaxin asked in a ghostly manner, "Where are you going?" ”

"Shopping." Guan Zhilin said.

Li Jiaxin put down the magazine and said, "Let's go together." ”

"Let's go." Guan Zhilin smiled, called her female bodyguard and went out.

Li Jiaxin looked at Guan Zhilin's female bodyguard, and couldn't help but feel comparable, and thought to herself: Next time, let Fei Ge invite me to invite one too.

In the past, the most prosperous shopping mall in Hong Kong was in Central, but in the last decade, the rent of houses in Central has been too high, and the commercial center of Hong Kong Island has begun to spread to Sheung Wan, Wan Chai and other places, and Causeway Bay has become the most prosperous and lively shopping place.

The two sports cars drove one after the other to Causeway Bay and stopped at the parking lot near Sogo.

Guan Zhilin walked in front wearing sunglasses and said, "There is a good SPA on the fifth floor of Sogo, I'll take you to try it later." ”

Li Jiaxin said: "I usually do nursing on the side of George Street. ”

Guan Zhilin smiled: "It's outdated over there." ”

After all, Li Jiaxin has lived the life of a rich man for less than a year, and how can Zhilin be so familiar with this kind of thing as spending money and losing money, and suddenly had the idea of learning from his predecessors with an open mind.

The two walked into the department store together, and immediately attracted the attention of everyone around them.

"Aunt Thirteen!"

"How did Guan Zhilin go to the mall with Li Jiaxin?"

"Yes, they're rivals."

“……”

In Hong Kong, where the palm is big, it is normal to meet a star. Unless it is a star of the rank of Zhou Yunfa, Anita Mui, and Alan Tam, most people will not be too excited when they meet a little star.

Although Guan Zhilin is very famous, her star aura is still insufficient, unless she meets die-hard fans, she will basically not be surrounded by passers-by to sign autographs.

But this time it was different, the two rivals actually appeared in the department store with a smile and a smile, as if the sun was coming out in the west.

I don't know who notified the reporter, but the next day, the entertainment pages of several newspapers appeared photos of them shopping together, and analyzed their behavior. In the end, the conclusion was that after Kang Jianfei and He Chaoqiong got married, Guan Zhilin and Li Jiaxin were both out of the competition for love, and finally turned enemies into friends under the same fate.

……

When Kang Jianfei went to the mainland to choose a location location, the animated film "Mulan" by Dark Horse Animation Company finally began to be screened in the spring of North America.

The spring season starts from spring break, and although it is not as important as the summer season and the year-end season (Thanksgiving and Christmas), the movies that can be released at this time are also very good looking at theaters and distributors.

No one can guarantee that "Mulan" will grossing in North America, because it is not only a Chinese film, but also an animated film. However, the previous screening effect was very good, so when it was officially released, "Mulan" got 625 screens.

Disney's original version of "Mulan" in 98 received more than 300 million US dollars at the global box office, and Kang Jianfei felt that he was satisfied that the global box office could break 100 million. After all, the original version is supported by the name of Disney, and during the holidays, many American parents will bring their children into the movie for the name Disney. And Kang Jianfei's dark horse animation company is not well-known, so it will be difficult to publicize.

Now compared with the Disney version, there are only some details of the plot changed, and the soundtrack is completely different, and the tunes in it are all completed by Hu Weili.

The Disney version of "Mulan" draws on the casualness and freehand of Chinese painting in the character modeling, and the expressions, moods and inner personalities of the characters are expressed in a few strokes. The film uses a large number of freehand ink paintings as the background, landscapes, flowers, courtyards, and fields, with a strong Chinese style. The colors are not as heavy as Disney usually does, but completely imitate the lightness of Chinese ink paintings.

However, it is worth noting that the ink background does not have the feeling of ink on rice paper, but incorporates Disney's usual thickness on the basis of freehand. Although the background is empty and the foreground is clearly defined, the foreground background uniformly highlights the rich color, a little less chic, and a little more regular.

This style is a breakthrough for Disney, and you don't have the slightest difficulty in accepting it for Americans, but Chinese will definitely have an awkward feeling when they look at it.

More than half of the animators of Dark Horse Animation Company are from the mainland, and these people are either famous teachers or famous apprentices, and their level is absolutely world-class.

Kang Jianfei originally wanted to follow Disney's example and integrate the toughness of American comics into the ink painting style, so as to cater to the aesthetics of American audiences. But after trying it, the animators of the company picked on them one by one, saying that it was not like four things to make it like this, and they didn't do it to death.

Kang Jianfei couldn't make trouble with those professionals, so in the end, he simply followed their wishes and used this cartoon to test the waters in North America.

In the end, the style is very similar to "Havoc in Heaven", as for whether the American people like to watch it or not, it will only be known after the release.

A lot of publicity money was sprinkled into it, but fortunately, there were no blockbusters to grab the box office in the same period, and there were no Disney animations to grab the audience. As the only animated film in the spring file, "Mulan" has become the first choice for parents who take their children to watch movies.

With a box office of $8.61 million in the first weekend, "Mulan" ranked second at the weekly box office in the spring season in North America, which is an excellent result. And "Mulan" has extremely strong stamina, with a decline of only 21.4 in the second week, continuing to rank second in the weekly box office list. The decline in the third week was 28.6, and the weekly box office surpassed the original first place, but the weekly box office champion was snatched by another newly released movie, and it still ranked second in the weekly box office list.

No. 2 at the box office for three consecutive weeks, but the box office number of the second oldest in 10,000 years is extremely impressive, and by the end of the fourth week, the cumulative box office in North America has reached $24.48 million.

This result will definitely not be ranked in the top ten of this year's North American box office list, not even the top 20, but as a Chinese animated film, it can get more than 20 million US dollars at the box office in North America, and the animators of Dark Horse Comics are crazy one by one.

Excluding promotional costs, as well as dividends from distributors and theater dealers, "Mulan" can get more than $3 million in North America, while the film costs less than $200,000 to produce.

Who says animated movies can't make money?

After the news came back to Hong Kong, those who did animation in Hong Kong were stupid, they were so poor that they could only make animation clips for commercials and movies, where had they ever seen animation make millions of dollars at a time.

After "Mulan" got good results in North America, it immediately took advantage of this momentum and was screened in Hong Kong. R1152
