Chapter 17: Revenge for Humiliation
A big battle, 300 rounds, the fight was so loud that the cows and geese cried, 6 umbrellas were scrapped, and the paratroopers sacrificed countless people.
……
The next morning, Zhou Yi woke up, Hua Ping was gone, and a paper bag was left on the bedside table, which contained 30,000 yuan.
Holy, what does that mean? Isn't that insulting? Who do you think I'm for? A little white face who eats soft rice? I'm a director, an actor, and a screenwriter, not that......
Zhou Yi "endured the humiliation" and put the money away.
There was also a note in the paper bag, and I picked it up and looked at it: "My Charlotte, I know that you are still renting a house in the urban village, use the money to change to a room with good conditions." ”
Signed: Your Qiu Ya.
Oh, what does that mean?
But are you going to let me change rooms, or are you going to keep me away from Meng Sunset?
I didn't plan to stay away from Meng Sunset, she was so beautiful, and she hadn't had enough days facing each other and window to window? Sooner or later I'm going to climb through the window......
……
In the afternoon, I went to the drama club to prepare for the evening performance.
Hua Ping has arrived, refreshed and high-spirited. Her female assistant also "went to work" as scheduled, and she never left her side.
Hua Ping and Zhou Yi said hello like ordinary colleagues, and then went about their own business, as if nothing had happened.
It's just that when passing by in the narrow aisle where no one is around, Hua Ping slapped Zhou Yi's buttocks.
……
The performance of "Charlotte's Troubles" was a hot show, with 10 performances and 10 explosions.
Qianzhou City has blown the "Charlotte wind", the reputation is getting better and better, scalpers continue to rise, and the scalpers at the door are gathering more and more.
However, they couldn't get tickets either.
Mi Xinghe and Zhou Yi can receive calls from acquaintances asking for tickets every day. They didn't have tickets either, so they could only tell people euphemistically, "The next round, the next round of performances, I will definitely leave you a ticket." ”
In the last life, Happy Twist's first work "I Want to Eat Twist and Twist It for You Now", even if the popular He Jiong was invited to play the leading role, it was useless, and the first round of performances was bloody.
One of them was snowing, and only seven spectators came, and everyone stood at the door to apologize for the refund.
Later, the situation slowly improved, and it was only after changing the theater to open the second round that the loss turned into a profit.
In contrast, Zhou Yi's "Happy Rice" started with a dream game.
In stark contrast to "Charlotte's Troubles", the attendance rate of "Gujing Neighborhood" performed by the Qianzhou People's Theater continued to decline and gradually declined.
In fact, benefiting from the continuous hype of Zhou Yi's trading, the tickets for the first three performances of "Gujing Neighborhood" sold well, and counting the free tickets, the audience in the theater was basically full.
But after the premiere, there was a refund for the second show.
The audience's common evaluation is very contradictory, "The drama is well arranged, and the actors are well acted, but it's just not interesting." ”
Since then, attendance has been getting lower and lower. The first round of "Gujing Neighborhood" also opened 10 games, and after the fifth game, less than 20% of the seats were on the table. After the seventh game, there are many birds.
The stubborn Zhao Shanhe couldn't figure it out in the end, what was the problem?
In the end, the audience can only be blamed, "The garbage audience doesn't know the goods, and they can't eat good things, so they know to eat some junk food." ”
……
After the end of the first round of performances, Mi Xinghe renewed the second round of performance agreement with the Copper Coin Theater.
However, Zhang Shaogang had to temporarily withdraw from the performance of "Charlotte's Troubles" because of his busy work, and Tian Yu took over the role of Mr. Wang.
Tian Yu is already ready to take over the baton, and Zhou Yi and Mi Xinghe are also very clear in their hearts - Tian Yu's acting skills are obviously better than Zhang Shaogang's, and seamless succession is not a problem.
Before parting, Mi Xinghe organized a dinner party to see off Zhang Shaogang. Zhang Shaogang was very moved, through these days of rehearsals and performances, Zhang Shaogang experienced a different life, not only made a lot of good friends, but also gained many drama fans.
Halfway through the farewell banquet, someone came in with a wine glass and toasted with a smile, it turned out to be the famous host Cheng Xiaoshuai.
Everyone in the drama club was surprised and disdainful.
Last time, Mi Xinghe invited Cheng Xiaoshuai to play the role of "Teacher Wang", Cheng Xiaoshuai played a big name, not only rejected Mi Xinghe, but also insulted and said a lot of excessive things-
"Do you think Andy Lau will cut the ribbon for the chicken farm?"
"Why do you think you can please me? I'm worth a lot of money! ”
"Sitting at a table and eating is called socializing, don't take it seriously."
"Using your drama club to do a show is to give you face......"
made Mi Xinghe half angry.
In the past month or so, Cheng Xiaoshuai's life has become more and more difficult, and the only program in his hand has just been cut because of low ratings.
took on the role of the third male lead in a TV series, and wanted to switch to film and television, but who knew that the capital chain of the crew's management was broken, the TV series was yellow, and his role was gone.
If he can't change careers, he wants to return to the TV station to fight for a new variety show. He has always had a bad temper, offended many people, and the team was not set up. In addition, the program planning was controversial, the matter was shelved indefinitely, and everyone else was transferred to other programs, only Cheng Xiaoshuai was hung up.
The media circle and entertainment industry are like this, a person becomes popular quickly and cools down faster.
Cheng Xiaoshuai was in a hurry, but there was no way. Seeing the continuous reports of "Charlotte's Troubles" in the newspaper and on TV, he regretted it very much, he knew that "Charlotte's Troubles" was so popular, and he should not have put up a shelf to reject Mi Xinghe in the first place.
Look at Zhang Shaogang, who is young, hosting and drama are blooming, and how good they are.
If you don't refuse at the beginning, maybe you will be the one who blooms twice.
Hearing that Zhang Shaogang was about to quit the performance, Cheng Xiaoshuai immediately felt that his opportunity had come, so he rushed to find an opportunity like a fly.
Cheng Xiaoshuai asked Mi Xinghe to toast with a smiling face, Mi Xinghe is a kind person in his bones, and when he saw Cheng Xiaoshuai, he was ready to forgive him.
Picking up the wine glass and just about to stand up, Zhou Yizhao pinched his thigh, Mi Xinghe immediately relented, and the smile on his face quickly changed from "enthusiasm" to "mockery" that he didn't want to see, and said mockingly:
"Yo, isn't this the 'Andy Lau' in the hosting industry? Why did Andy Lau come to our 'chicken farm' to toast? ”
Cheng Xiaoshuai was so embarrassed, he didn't drink it with a wine glass, he didn't drink it, and finally smiled cheekily: "Boss Mi, it's all a misunderstanding, first of all, congratulations on the big sale of your drama, I only know after watching your drama that this drama is awesome, I knew it was like this, and I had to help you perform no matter what." But it doesn't matter, isn't this Teacher Shaogang leaving? I can help with the second round of performances if you need it......"
"Forget it!" Mi Xinghe waved his hand again and again, "How dare we use you, you are expensive, we can't afford to invite you." ”
"No, no, no", Cheng Xiaoshuai was even more embarrassed, "It's all friends, what's expensive or not?" Didn't you often sit down to eat together before? ”
"Don't say that!" Mi Xinghe sneered, "Sitting on one to eat is called socializing, I don't dare to take it seriously." By the way, we have already booked the actors for the second round of performances, Mr. Tian Yu, if you don't think his status is low, you can get to know him......"
"Huh." Cheng Xiaoshuai's face is like pork liver.
When Cheng Xiaoshuai rejected Mi Xinghe, Zhou Yi once said that he must find an opportunity for Mi Xinghe to humiliate Cheng Xiaoshuai in public, and he did what he said.
After Cheng Xiaoshuai left, Mi Xinghe specially toasted Zhou Yi and thanked him......
