Chapter 519: Falling into the Pit
The snow in Yanjing City is getting heavier and heavier.
Walking down the street, you will be greeted by a biting chill.
The sky was gray, vaguely breathless, especially in the early hours of the morning, this chill almost penetrated the bone marrow.
[Oriental Magic, the poignant love movie "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" is released today! ] 】
At the entrance of the major cinemas, the staff hung the promotional posters on the most conspicuous shelves.
On the promotional poster, Liu Tingting has a delicate face, a charming smile, and is dressed very boldly, just gently showing her white toes, but licking the enchanting charm between her lips makes people can't help but have red ears on the ground.
She is the main photo of the propaganda, and the side photo is Donnie Yen holding a spear, Donnie Yen is wearing armor, majestic, and his eyes are like swords, like a battle-hardened general on the battlefield.
On the other side is Yao Yixing, who is dressed as a scholar, Yao Yixing himself has outstanding appearance, a little feminine, but he is full of bookishness.
"Zhou Yang will really come over?"
"Yes."
"Oh, why did he help us promote "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" and really wanted to dig me up?"
"Well, Director Jiang, you are the best among the younger generation, after Zhou Yilin and Director Zhou took the position, the contradictions in all aspects have been alleviated......
Django couldn't sleep left and right, so he chose to come to the Wanda Cinema screening room where the premiere was played.
"Liao Zhai Painted Skin" benefited from the various publicity efforts of Xinghui's official and Zhou Yang's Weibo with a wave of rhythm, which made the advance tickets rise wildly, and even the next day's advance tickets were sold nearly 90%.
Such a surprise advance ticket made Django naturally feel endless excitement in his heart.
This movie went from not being optimistic to insisting on making it, disobeying his mentor Cao Bangguo, and finally released after various twists and turns......
This process is full of all kinds of sadness for Django, and it has also made Django grow a lot.
"Sending an invitation letter to Zhou Yang is to be sent, to be a smooth person, but also to be stable, no one can be offended, this is the way of doing things, and it will not be outdated at any time......"
"He won't come ...... if he sends it"
"It's his business whether he comes or not, but whether he sends it or not, whether he stays or not is our business, generosity, remember to be generous......"
What Zhou Yilin had said to him a few days ago echoed in his mind.
After experiencing ups and downs and falling into a trough, Jiang Ge began to identify more and more with Zhou Yilin's philosophy of doing things, and felt that the era when people like Feng Ruirui have been controlling the film industry is definitely an era of stagnation or even regression in Chinese films.
He thought of Cao Bangguo again.
Recently, Cao Bangguo has been busy with "Righteous Man", and occasionally he took the initiative to greet Cao Bangguo, although the tone was the same as usual, but Django felt alienated.
"The premiere shouldn't be coming, the movie is ...... at a critical moment"
When Django talked about the premiere of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" and asked Cao Bangguo if he was free, Cao Bangguo sighed and said this.
Although he could understand it, somehow, there were some waves in Django's heart, and when he thought of Cao Bangguo and that Zhao Sicheng mixed up, he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
An invisible barrier already exists, and it seems that it doesn't know when it will start, and the distance between the two sides is getting farther and farther away, and it is no longer the once close master-apprentice relationship.
"The box office of the premiere can break 35 million, or even 40 million!"
Thousands of thoughts came to mind, and finally these thoughts were interrupted by Qian Wei's voice.
Qian Wei used to be a person from Huaxing, and later after leaving Huaxia, he has been following him, although he has a very bad temper during this period, and even smashed Qian Wei with a chair and scolded Qian Wei, but Qian Wei has always followed him, always on call, and then gradually, the relationship between Django and Qian Wei has improved slightly, sometimes more like a friend, and occasionally make an appointment to drink together.
The later stage of the film "Liao Zhai" painted the skin was completely handed over to Qian Wei.
Qian Wei helped contact the special effects company, helped edit according to his own requirements, and helped with various dubbing......
In the past few months, he has been very busy, and after falling ill several times, he has the finished product of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", and Django is very satisfied after seeing the finished product, and even vaguely saw the fire of the movie.
"Be calm, the movie hasn't been released yet, everything is variable!"
Django's heart was surging, but his expression was calm as he looked out the window at the light of dawn.
The minutes ticked by......
It's about time for him to reach the top of China!
…………………………
Zhou Yang returned to Huaxia.
The starlight of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" actually accounts for 30%, and the rest of the film investment is basically from Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang registered an investment venture company with an English account overseas, and then handed over the funds of the investment company to "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" with Zhou Yilin's hand, and signed a VAM agreement.
So although this plate was made by Xinghui, the real capital in the secret was Zhou Yang.
""Laughing All the Way" was released for a month and a half, with a total box office of 630 million, and the final box office is expected to reach 650 million, I didn't expect such a comedy to shine such an amazing box office!"
"The total box office of "Crazy Stone" has exceeded 600 million, and the stamina is quite strong, and it is estimated that it can break 700 million!"
“……”
On the way to the premiere of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", Xu Mei excitedly reported to Zhou Yang the box office situation of the two films.
Zhou Yang listened to the box office data of hundreds of millions of dollars, and the expression on his face was not shocked.
Whether it is Liu Can, the director of "Crazy Stone", or Zhang Changsheng, the director of "Laughing Flowers All the Way", both of them are actually very talented, but their talents are not recognized in a special period, and they can only regret being buried.
"Mr. Zhou!"
"Mr. Zhou, wow, Mr. Zhou is here!"
"Hello Zhou Yang, can you accept our interview? Why did you come to the premiere of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin" this time? We are very curious about the relationship between you and Director Jiang, I heard that you had a deep conflict before, and after Director Jiang apologized, did you officially reconcile in private? ”
"Can you talk about Liu Tianwang? What is the reason why Liu Tianwang joined your company? Someone photographed Feng Kai and Feng Dao digging Director Jiang, did your company deliberately target Xinghui? ”
“……”
As soon as Zhou Yang got out of the car, he was surrounded by countless reporters who flocked to him.
Zhou Yang glanced at Xu Mei and frowned slightly.
During this time, I have been seriously filming "Spider-Man", and my free time is trying to learn from James. Bonte's shooting skills, and almost all the big and small things of Huaxing were handed over to Wang Jing to manage.
So......
He didn't know that Liu Tianwang had jumped to their Huaxing, and he didn't know that Feng Kai was in contact with Django and was preparing to dig Django and something like that.
When facing the interview, Zhou Yang chose to smile and choose to be silent.
And Xu Mei stood in front of Zhou Yang, saying some polite words such as "personal choice", "we are not targeting any company", "we can't go toe-to-toe with Huaxing", "otherwise we won't accept the invitation to participate in the premiere of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin".
The reporters didn't ask what they wanted to ask, so they were naturally extremely unwilling, and desperately handed the long gun and short cannon to Zhou Yang's side, trying to ask for some exciting news, but Zhou Yang never responded.
After walking into the screening hall, Zhou Yang met Zhou Yilin.
"President Zhou......"
"Haha, call me Director Zhou, or Brother Zhou, President Zhou is too polite, don't be so angry, it was my family five hundred years ago."
“……”
When Zhou Yang walked into the premiere hall, he saw Zhou Yilin walking over in the distance.
Zhou Yang said hello to Zhou Yilin with a smile, but Zhou Yilin patted Zhou Yang on the shoulder, laughing louder, and even vaguely unscrupulous.
Django not far away also walked over, but after seeing the intimacy between Zhou Yilin and Zhou Yang, he felt that Zhou Yilin was hypocritical to the extreme, and intellectually felt that he should be such a person, but he instinctively felt repulsed.
Although this two-faced approach made Django uncomfortable, he still walked over and greeted Zhou Yang with a smile, as if he had been a friend for many years, and asked his assistant to warmly beckon Zhou Yang to sit down.
There are still ten minutes left before the premiere of the movie.
Those who should have come and those who shouldn't have come came one after another, but Django didn't wait for Feng Minrui, Shen Jinsong and others to come over.
Originally, the leadership of the Huaxia Film Association only came......
Not only did they not come, but even the producer, Li Zhongjun, the boss of Rastar Entertainment, did not come.
Django subconsciously looked at the screening hall of "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", looking at the familiar and unfamiliar faces, he didn't know what was going on, he found that the entire screening hall seemed to be all related to Zhou Yang or Huaxing......
"Haven't you come yet?"
"There is something wrong with Mr. Li, and he can't come now."
"Oh."
"Director Jiang, do you want to help keep the position?"
"Help keep it."
"Okay!"
There were still five minutes before the premiere, Django heard the assistant's call, the corners of his mouth twitched, and before he could finish speaking, he saw Feng Kai also coming.
He didn't invite Feng Kai.
didn't even leave a place for him, this person came here, completely with a dead face.
"Hey young, Director Jiang, the new movie is a big hit, congratulations!"
"Hello, Director Feng......"
Django said hello to Feng Kai, and then saw Feng Kai walk into the screening hall with a big grin, and instead of sitting, he leaned down and chatted with Zhou Yang, and then Zhou Yang and Zhou Yilin stood up together and sat in the front row......
And then......
Django saw Zhou Yang sitting in Li Zhongjun's place!
In front of countless reporters and media, Django naturally couldn't say anything, so he could only follow him into the screening hall in a burst of complications.
Sitting in the main seat, facing the reporter, the more Django thought about it, the more wrong it became.
Donnie Yen didn't come, because he was opened, he is angry now, and he can help finish filming "Liao Zhai Painted Skin", and it is already benevolent and righteous not to sue during the release.
The leading actor Yao Yixing came, sitting in the position looking lonely, obviously a little uncomfortable.
Around him......
There don't seem to be many Starlight actors around.
Don't know why......
Django suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a pit!
