440 "Piano of Steel" loses money at the box office

"Dad, you'd better not let my mom hear this, be careful to sleep on the sofa at night."

His son's words made Zhang Yang a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to say any more.

Zhang Haowei continued: "Dad, I think I'm very good like this, go to work, watch videos and play games at home after work, go fishing and drink tea with friends on weekends, it's too troublesome to socialize with girls." ”

Yu Dongqing was surprised when he heard this.

What's wrong with kids now?

I'm not interested in falling in love.

Could it be?

Yu Dongqing suddenly thought of something, and looked at Zhang Yang with fearful eyes.

Zhang Haowei noticed the strangeness in Yu Dongqing's eyes. Said with a smile:

"Uncle Yu, don't guess, my sexual orientation is normal, I just don't want to fall in love now, if I think about it that day, I will take the initiative to find it."

"Hao viagra, you haven't met the girl you like, right?" It was Liu Zhiqi who spoke, and walked out of the bedroom holding Yu Tongtong's hand.

"Sister Xiaoqi, Tongtong." Zhang Haowei greeted politely and said again.

"Perhaps."

Compared with Zhang Haowei, Liu Zhiqi's personality is much more lively: "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Yu, many boys are like this now, they don't want to chase girls, they would rather play games online." ”

Times have really changed.

Yu Dongqing sighed in his heart.

At this time, the doorbell rang again, it was Du Hui's family who arrived, and everyone ended the topic.

In the afternoon, the four families sat around the big table in the living room, soaking mutton, drinking Wuliangye and drinks, and celebrating the New Year lively.

Halfway through the wine, Zhang Yang sighed with emotion: "When I was a child, I was looking forward to the New Year, and when I grew up, especially at our age, I was afraid of the New Year, and this New Year will be a year older." ”

Yu Dongqing laughed when he heard it: "Zhang Yang, this is not like your style, you see your movie roadshow some time ago, going to Harbin and going to Guangzhou, running in a hurry, that momentum is more than that of young people." ”

"Hey, hey. To tell you the truth, I was really motivated at that time, I think, filming this "Piano of Steel" is the most meaningful thing I have done this year! ”

"The most meaningful thing, but unfortunately the loss." Liu Meirong, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but say.

She has always opposed this matter from beginning to end, but she has no choice but to show her iron heart, and now she can't help but pour cold water when she hears her husband take it out again.

Zhang Yang was not annoyed and said.

"Loss? Some things are worth doing at a loss! Besides, it's less than expected. ”

"Mom, I think my dad did the right thing." Zhang Haowei, who was walking on the side and playing with his mobile phone, spoke again.

"I went to see it, and there were some plots in the movie that I didn't quite understand, but I was very moved to watch it, my grandparents' generation was really not easy. Also, the song "Cheers to the Past" sung by Uncle Yu is really good. ”

Scold?

"Do you like listening to this song?"

"yes, I just like this kind of song with a retro flavor, and now it's a new song, I can't listen to that song?!"

Yu Dongqing didn't say anything, and Liu Ziqi, who was sitting opposite him, glanced at him dissatisfied.

What do you mean?

Anyway, the girl group I belong to has recently released several new songs in a row.

If it weren't for the elders, I'd talk to you about it!

After eating, several women went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Yu Tongtong and Liu Zhiqi went to her room to play games, and they had to pull Zhang Haowei up, not forgetting Du Hui's three-year-old daughter.

The remaining four men went to Yu Dongqing's tea room to drink tea and chat.

Tea is naturally Longjing, after drinking wine, and eating some greasy meat, now make a cup of strong tea to drink, it is indeed very comfortable.

"Zhang Yang, how is the release of the movie you made? Recently, there have been a lot of things going on at school, so I didn't bother to pay attention to this. It was Du Hui who spoke.

"Will you really lose?"

"The loss is certain, but the loss is more and less." Zhang Yang said with a wry smile: "The attendance rate and film scheduling rate feedback from all over the country are not ideal, this is about to come to the New Year, and as soon as the Spring Festival movie is released, it will be even worse." ”

"I estimate that I will lose at least 3 million."

Du Hui was taken aback.

3 million is not a small number.

"This is also thanks to Holly, who helped me stand on the platform, and called on his fans to watch it on Weibo, and also wrote the song "Cheers to the Past", and many netizens left messages to go to the cinema for that song." Zhang Yang finally said.

"Literary films are like this, and now this film made by Mingmei will lose if it doesn't work well." Yu Dongqing comforted: "However, the Douban score is quite high, 8.6 points, which can be said to be an excellent film." ”

Yu Dongqing also went to the cinema to watch it.

Compared with the original "Piano of Steel" filmed in that time and space, Li Fen's drama has weakened in color, but the details are more in place.

As a female director, she pays more attention to the delicate performance of the characters and has more warmth.

After listening to Yu Dongqing's words, Zhang Yang said with a smile: "The Douban score is indeed quite high, Li Fen has received an official invitation from the Sydney International Film Festival, and she is going to take the film to participate in the exhibition, which has been approved." ”

"Zhang Yang, I will definitely win the award, congratulations." Liu Yimin interjected.

"Maybe, in fact, it really doesn't matter to me whether I go to a foreign film festival or not, whether I win an award or not, and I don't need to let foreigners evaluate this history."

Zhang Yang said: "It's just that Li Fen is interested, so let her be." ”

"Well, there's one more thing." Zhang Yang suddenly thought of something, and said to Yu Dongqing: "Holly, do you know which "Anyang Baby" that is named Zhang Dongsheng, right?" ”

"Of course I do." Yu Dongqing said with a smile: "If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have written this script, I didn't expect people to look down on it." ”

"I heard from a friend that the "Anyang Baby" he filmed was not approved, and he was privately exhibited at the Chicago International Film Festival in the United States, although he won the award, but it violated the relevant national regulations, and he could not make any more films within three years."

"Oh? Is this message accurate? Yu Dongqing asked.

"It's true, I also specially called Li Wan to ask him, he said that this thing is true, and he scolded Wang Dongsheng on the phone for not listening to him, well, now I even lose my job."

Ay.

Yu Dongqing sighed.

When everyone went home, in the living room, Yu Dongqing talked about what Zhang Yang said just now.

Bright was also surprised.

"Senior Brother Wang has been banned? How so? ”

"Hey, fortunately, it's not long, only three years." Yu Dongqing said: "I estimate that he will not have a good time this year. ”

In a very ordinary restaurant in Dongzhimen, Yanjing, the dishes on the table were in a mess, and the two men were relatively speechless while smoking.

It was Li Wan and Wang Dongsheng.

"Dongsheng, what are you going to do?" Li Wan asked.

"What can I do?" Wang Dongsheng raised his head and smiled miserably.

"Now that I can't even make a movie, what else can I do?"

"It's okay, you can rest and rest." Li Wan comforted: "You are not too young, find a girl to start a family, ah?" ”

"I'm a poor bastard now, what girl would marry me?" Wang Dongsheng asked rhetorically.

Li Wanchang sighed, thought about it, took out a check from his pocket, and handed it to the other party.

"This is a transfer check, I opened it with my studio account, 500,000, for you. You can't afford to buy a house in Yanjing, but at least you can rent a decent house, settle down first, and find a girl to live a good life. With your ability, even if you can't be a director, it's no problem to engage in screenwriting, post-production, etc. ”

"Thank you." Wang Dongsheng took it: "Brother Li, I will have money to pay back for you in the future." ”

"I'll go first, your sister-in-law is still waiting for me to go back to my hometown for the New Year." Li Wan extinguished the cigarette in his hand, stood up and walked a few steps after speaking, and suddenly turned to look at Wang Dongsheng:

"It doesn't matter if you don't care yet, but if I know that you will use this money to make a film again, be careful that I find someone to break your legs!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.
