Starting from the second day of the Lunar New Year, Happy Rice opens the "second half" of the Chinese New Year performance.

However, Zhou Yi did not really kiss Meng Xiyang during the performance. The couple's down jacket for two people was not worn in public.

It was Meng Xiyang who flinched.

Since they were admitted to the drama academy, they have been constantly instilled with a consciousness - as potential artists, they must hide their marriages, secret loves, and remain mysterious.

This is not only the need for the development of Xingtu, but also a necessary measure to protect yourself and your other half.

Therefore, when Zhou Yi proposed to wear a couple's outfit to work in the drama club, Meng Xiyang dissuaded him.

Zhou Yi pretended to be angry, Meng Xiyang hugged him and comforted him for a long time, "It's best to hide love in your heart."

……

The Chinese New Year performance is still popular, which has surprised people in the Qianzhou drama circle and even the film and television industry.

In their opinion, the Chinese New Year is a time to visit relatives and friends, drink and party, who will go into the theater to watch a drama? Even the cinema doesn't have a high attendance.

It turned out that they were wrong, and "Charlotte's Troubles" was a hit, turning many people's understanding.

Not everyone is willing to spend time at the wine table, and many are willing to go into the theater.

Before the start of the performance on the fifth night of the Lunar New Year, Mi Xinghe came backstage with a smile on his face and brought good news, he reached a preliminary intention with Qianzhou Bafang Juyi Performing Arts Company to start a national tour with "Charlotte's Troubles", the details of the specific tour are being negotiated, and the contract is further detailed.

"Wow!" The backstage was immediately fried.

It's really going to be a tour, when Zhou Yi first said that he was going to tour, no one believed it, and it turned out that everything was slowly being realized according to Zhou Yi's established plan.

Zhou Yi is the most calm one, he already knows about the tour, and he has a lot of ideas behind the scenes.

He once reminded Mi Xinghe and Zhou Ziheng: Most performance management companies are mercenary, and most of the local performance companies are not good people, don't believe anything in words, what can fall on the contract falls on the contract.

"Where do you go on a national tour?" People are more concerned about this issue.

"The first stop is Shanghai," Mi Xinghe said.

The first stop is arranged in Shanghai, and the bigger, more developed and open the city, the more the attendance rate can be guaranteed.

According to the size and openness of the city, "Charlotte's Troubles" can be sold in Qianzhou, and Shanghai is not far behind.

Other cities don't dare to guarantee it, so they have to try to come.

"And then there's Shenzhen. If the performance effect meets expectations, go to Nanjing, Xi'an, and Chengdu. The rest of the matter is to take a step at a time. If the show continues to be popular, then keep touring. ”

The crowd continued to cheer and asked with concern, "When will the tour begin?" ”

Mi Xinghe said: "Wait for the contract to be detailed again." After the contract is signed, it will be announced immediately, and it will go to Shanghai in late February at the latest. The duration of the tour in other cities will depend on the market reaction in Shanghai. ”

"That's right", Mi Xinghe remembered another detail, "There is one more thing to inform you, according to Zhou Yi's reminder and suggestion, the Shanghai tour is a venue for performances in the Grand Theater, with at least 2,000 people." Performers will set up several large and small screens on the scene, so that even if you sit in the last row, you can see and hear clearly.

"Of course, that's not the point, the point is: performing in a 2,000-seat theater means a huge increase in ticket revenue, and if everything goes well, everyone's performance score will also increase. As for how much money you can get for a show, it depends on the contract we finalize with the performance agency and the performance company. ”

"Wow!" The crowd cheered again.

Everything else is fake, the performance fee is the most real, who doesn't want to make more money?

The excitement was brought to the stage, and everyone played exceptionally well in this scene.

……

The seventh day of the Lunar New Year is the last performance of the New Year's Eve.

It continues to fill up and everything works fine. After the performance, the actors took a curtain call.

After returning to the backstage, the staff of the theater handed a business card to Zhou Yi, who was removing his makeup: "Director Zhou, someone wants to see you." ”

Zhou Yi took the business card and looked at it, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Where are the people?" ”

"It's right outside in the hallway."

"Take me there."

Zhou Yi rushed out with half of the "residual makeup" removed. The rest of the people who removed their makeup were inexplicable and didn't know what was going on.

There were two people standing in the corridor, a man and a woman, the man was about fifty years old, flat-headed, slightly chubby, wearing glasses, and his face was majestic. The woman is younger, about thirty years old, dignified, quiet, and elegant.

Zhou Yi recognized the man at a glance, Wang Junlei, a famous and hot figure in the film and television industry, and a bigwig-like existence. Many big-budget movies have his behind-the-scenes planning and production.

In the last life, Zhou Yi was very familiar with him, and they appreciated each other. Zhou Yi's return to the film and television industry is due to his insight and recommendation.

And this person is very righteous, and Zhou Yi has a high opinion of him.

However, I have the impression that he lives in Shanghai, how did he come to Qianzhou today, and handed me a business card?

"Mr. Wang, aren't you in Shanghai? Why did you come to Qianzhou? Zhou Yi greeted with a smile on his face.

Wang Junlei looked at the residual makeup on Zhou Yi's face and was very pleased. In ancient times, Cao Cao greeted Xu Yu barefoot, and now there is Zhou Yi's residual makeup to see my Wang Junlei.

"So you know me? I thought it would be too presumptuous to hand over a business card. The man smiled faintly and shook hands with Zhou Yi.

"Of course I know", Zhou Yi said with a smile, "How many people in the Chinese and foreign film and television circles don't know you?" It's cold outside, go inside and talk, I'll have to introduce you to my colleagues and get them excited too. ”

"Forget it", Wang Junlei waved his hand, "I just heard a friend from Qianzhou talk about this drama, so I took my wife to watch it casually." It's really great, and it deserves its name, and it refreshes my ears. That's why I called you out to show my appreciation for you. You directed and acted well, and your brilliance was dazzling, and people couldn't take their eyes off it. ”

"Ouch, thank you Mr. Wang for the compliment. I didn't know you were coming, but if I had, I would have brought my colleagues to meet you. ”

"You're welcome", Wang Junlei smiled faintly, "I want to ask you, do you have any ideas for adapting "Charlotte's Troubles" into a movie, if so, I can invest in production, and you will be the director and star." ”

In Wang Junlei's mind, Zhou Yi heard this, and he was so excited and grateful that Zhou Yi was very calm, and said embarrassedly: "I did think about it, but not now." ”

"Oh? Why? ”

"The time is not ripe," Zhou Yi said half-truthfully, "Although the drama "Charlotte's Troubles" is popular, according to our off-site survey, the audience is relatively single, mostly young and high-quality white-collar workers, which is equivalent to the elite class.

"This group of people has high incomes, high quality and open minds. The problem is, just because they like it doesn't mean the masses will. If it is made into a movie, I am afraid that many people will not accept it, and the box office will not be too good, and it will drag down investors at that time.

"In addition, most of our actors are not mature enough. Except for me, they are not ready to go to the big screen, let alone have film and television appeal, and a group of newcomers are acting in a movie with a novel theme, but they are afraid that it will be difficult to win the film schedule in theaters.

"Of course, I could have found a more mature actor to star in the movie version of Charlotte's Troubles, but that wasn't my original intention. My original intention was to bring the existing actors of the drama club to the film.

"It's not easy for them, they have persevered in drama for so many years and paid so much, I can't bear to kick them far away. So Mr. Wang, we still have to precipitate and precipitate again. ”

Zhou Yi half-truthfully said a few reasons, Wang Junlei was somewhat regretful, and nodded frequently, very pleased: "I didn't expect it, you are still a person who values love and righteousness, and it is not common in the film and television industry."

"Okay, I'm just mentioning it in passing, if you don't agree, let's put it aside for the time being. You already have my business card, when you change your mind, feel free to contact me.

"Also, when you come to Shanghai, remember to call me. Again, I appreciate you and am very optimistic about you, come on lad. ”

Wang Junlei patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder, said goodbye and left.

Zhou Yi sent them outside the theater until he watched them disappear into the traffic.

Looking down at Wang Junlei's business card again, it's really good, I didn't expect to be appreciated by Wang Junlei so quickly in this life, and the road will be smooth sailing in the future.
