Chapter 32: The Rhythm of the Big Red
Chen Jiayao didn't go anywhere the next day, just waited for a call at home.
Whether it is a blockbuster or a bad seat, Chen Jiayao has to care.
The phone rang twice, and Chen Jiayao rushed over to answer it every time, but once it was Zhou Xingchi who called, saying that he had watched the movie, she acted well, and continued to work hard. Once Fang Yihua called, saying that she had arranged an assistant for her, and she would come over to meet tomorrow.
In the past, if she was praised by the king of comedy, she would be happy to have an assistant to help, but now, the phone call she most wants to receive is from Director Cai or Zhang Guorong.
The statistics of the box office on the first day will generally be reported to director Cai Aurora first, and then Cai Aurora will tell the male and female leading actors and other main creators.
It doesn't matter if Chen Jiayao is waiting, Cai Aurora and Zhang Guorong are also staying at home and not going out.
As for the other supporting characters, there is not as much pressure as the three of them, they do things as usual when they have something, and they stay at home to watch TV or talk and work with their families.
It was dark, and the phone was thinking about it again, Chen Jiayao had just received a call from the students in the same class to praise the movie, saying that she was also not interested in this call.
Sometimes, the call you want when you are most concerned doesn't come, and if you don't pay attention, the call arrives instead.
"A-Yao, the box office is out on the first day."
Chen Jiayao's spirit was shocked, but when she heard Zhang Guorong's low tone, her heart couldn't help but sink.
"How much? Even if it's bad, sue me. ”
Zhang Guorong suddenly laughed when he heard this: "Seven hundred and eighty thousand, the average attendance rate is more than 60%, and the box office is 780,000 a day. ”
The production fee is claimed to be 2 million, but in fact, it is only about 1 million, and it can reach a profit of 2 million, which is already an excellent movie of Shaw Brothers Films. What's more, "Lemon Cola" is a literary film, and generally speaking, a literary film is already a good film if it has a box office of more than one million in Hong Kong. These are enough for the crew of "Lemon Cola" to show off.
Zhang Guorong said but smirked, people had already fallen into great joy, this was his first film of more than three million, and it was applauded and acclaimed at the same time.
Chen Jiayao breathed a sigh of relief, although it was not high, it was finally profitable, and she was still afraid of having a bad reputation at the box office.
Zhou Yunfa is popular in the entire Chinese-speaking world on TV series, and now, he makes movies and loses one for another, and the box office poison covers him, so that no matter how famous he is now, there is no director who wants him to make movies.
After saying a few more words, Zhang Guorong hung up excitedly, and estimated that he would go to report the good news to others immediately.
At dawn on the second day, Chen Jiayao came to TVB refreshed.
After meeting Fang Yihua, I saw her so-called assistant.
He was not tall, had a somewhat dark skin, and wore a gold-rimmed glasses that covered almost half of his face.
"This is Fu Su, a journalism student at the School of Film and Television Media, she is following you for the time being."
Chen Jiayao looked at Fu Su, it was really strange to give her such a highly educated assistant.
Anyway, it's better to have a good relationship with her first, after all, working together in the future, she will trouble her a lot.
So, she smiled: "Hello, I'm Chen Jiayao, please bear with me in the future." ”
Fu Su also stretched out his hand: "I am Fu Su, if you have anything in the future, you can directly find me, and I will help you do it." ”
Chen Jiayao was stunned, so big and confident.
Fang Yihua looked at it and smiled slightly: "You also know each other, you will have a good run-in later, Susu, you first go to the artist department to familiarize yourself with A-Yao's itinerary, and then help her make arrangements, I will talk to A-Yao." ”
Fu Su nodded and retreated very neatly.
Chen Jiayao couldn't help but smile bitterly, Su Su, Fang Yihua hired a big-name assistant for her.
"The box office of "Lemon Cola" came out on the first day, and it was a very good result."
Chen Jiayao hurriedly said: "Everyone is working hard. ”
Fang Yihua saw that Chen Jiayao had no pride in his feelings, and he was very satisfied and put away his gaze.
"A-Yao, there is another happy event."
Chen Jiayao looked at her suspiciously.
Fang Yihua said with a smile: "The happiness of "Fifty Yuan" was broadcast at 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and the ratings rose from 22% at the beginning to 60%, surpassing the prime-time "Dragon Babu", and the station is very satisfied with you. ”
Chen Jiayao was very surprised, there are such high ratings?
Fang Yihua smiled when she saw this, she said: "I thought that this show was held by Qiuguan and Chen Yulian, but who knows, the two of them were praised by the show, and early in the morning, reporters from various newspapers besieged them." ”
Chen Jiayao smiled: "Then I'll rest assured, Sister Fang, I'm really afraid of this show." ”
Fang Yihua said: "You are very good, if you have any ideas in the future, you can tell me, and definitely give a reasonable price." ”
Chen Jiayao nodded: "Of course, Mr. Fang and the TV station praise me so much, I should naturally think about the station." ”
Fang Yihua squinted his eyes and looked at Chen Jiayao, who was smiling and smiling, and he was not a forgetful person.
"As for me, I'm going to reveal that you are the planner of this show, and then your identity as a writer will make you popular in one fell swoop, and by the way, I will help you urge the box office of "Lemon Cola", maybe it may reach 10 million, and then you will be the heroine of the "Myth" movie." Fang Yihua clapped his hands and said.
Chen Jiayao was shocked, the investment of 15 million made her, a newcomer who has been in the film for less than half a year, take on the role?
"This ......"
"You don't have the confidence to play Yushu well?"
When Chen Jiayao heard this, a sudden rush of eagerness surged in her heart, and she said, "I have confidence." ”
"It's good to have confidence, you stay in the company during this time, and soon the reporter will have a storm, and it will be safer in the company."
Chen Jiayao nodded, there is wireless hype, coupled with the status of the new show Xiangjiang literati, and the heroine of "Myth", even a newcomer can be copied as a Xiangjiang celebrity.
