A small town in Hui Province.

Qin Muchu jumped out of the tricycle, took out his wallet and paid the uncle.

"Baby, what are you doing here? The travel part is not good-looking. ”

The uncle took the money and asked in half-baked Mandarin.

"I'm from here." Qin Muchu replied with a smile.

"You're from here? Is it a real drop? Not like! ”

The uncle looked at Qin Muchu and shook his head again and again.

Qin Muchu, whether it is clothing or temperament, is incompatible with the town.

Qin Muchu didn't defend himself, looking at the back of the uncle riding an electric tricycle and walking along the bumpy bluestone road, his eyes were complicated, and he was speechless for a long time.

Did he forget to ask me for money? I'm giving a hundred!

With a sigh, he picked up his bag and turned to walk towards the town.

Bluestone Town.

The name of the town is engraved on the large stone monument.

Qin Muchu came here once during the Chinese New Year, and after staying for a few days, he was reluctantly rushed back to Yanjing by the dean.

"Baby, you are the one who wants to do big things, don't waste time with me in the town, go back to make a movie, I'll wait to see ......"

The dean's words were still in my ears when I parted.

Qin Muchu, an impostor, was not found to be abnormal by the dean.

Maybe I found out, but it was only when I went to a big city and gained knowledge that I changed.

Walking to the door of the orphanage, although this is not an orphanage, the sign has not been removed.

The door was not closed, it was open.

There are so many people in the town, everyone knows the roots, but they have achieved "never close their doors at night".

Qin Muchu walked into the courtyard, entered the room, and put the bag on the table.

It used to be a canteen, but after the orphanage was removed, it became a living room.

"Who?"

There was a shout from the courtyard, and Qin Muchu's movements were heard by the people in the courtyard.

Soon, an old man with gray temples walked out.

"Xiao Qin?"

The old man shouted as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

"It's me, Dean, I'm back, I'm back to take you to the movies, the movies I made ......"

……

"Eat more of this, this is good for the body."

"The braised vegetables you love are gone, and Lao Zhang's family has moved to the county, otherwise I can buy you some ......"

The dean kept sandwiching dishes for Qin Muchu.

Qin Muchu did not refuse, although he had already held on.

Seeing that Qin Muchu was so able to eat, the dean smiled happily:

"Okay, I can eat in Yanjing, good, the water color is better than before."

"By the way, why did you come back this time?"

The dean asked suddenly.

Qin Muchu put down his chopsticks, as soon as he saw the dean, he said that he would take him to watch a movie, but he didn't expect the dean to remember it at all.

He was so happy to see him that he didn't pay attention to what he had to say.

"My first movie has been filmed and has been released, and I want to take you to see it when I come back this time."

Qin Muchu looked at the dean.

This is the greatest wish of the predecessor Qin Muchu, and it is also his greatest wish now.

"Movies? Did you make a movie? So fast? ”

The dean was pleasantly surprised, but also a little incredulous.

"Yes, it's too late today, let's do it tomorrow, we'll be in town tomorrow, isn't there a movie theater in town, we'll watch it at the movie theater in town tomorrow." Qin Muchu said.

"The cinema in the town is not good, it is a small theater, occasionally showing movies, most of the time it is closed, and it does not sell tickets."

The Dean shook his head.

"It's okay, don't worry, I brought the movie over, discuss it with the town government, and I can show it."

Qin Muchu explained.

He had been to the town's cinema last time he came, so he knew what was going on at that cinema.

It's just a screening room, and it's very small.

It's not so much a movie theater as a "small screening theater".

So he was prepared and brought a copy of the movie.

"Good, good, good. I'm going to inform them and let them all go to see your movie tomorrow. ”

The dean was very happy and got up to go out.

"Dean, it's so late, let's notify you tomorrow!"

Qin Muchu chased out and shouted.

"It's not too late, it's not too late!"

The dean has gone far, and it is hard to imagine that an old man in his seventies can have this agility.

……

Early the next morning.

The doors of the cinema opened, and it was full of people.

There weren't enough seats, so everyone brought their own small benches.

The discussion was loud, and they were talking to each other.

Watching movies is a rare thing in the town.

It's the first time I've watched a movie made by the town's own people.

Almost everyone in town who could come came.

"Xiao Qin, I have seen this movie on the Internet, and it has been spread widely, but I didn't expect the director to be from our Qingshi Town, and there is a big director in our town.

Old man, this is all taught by you! ”

The mayor of the town enthusiastically took Qin Muchu's hand and refused to let go.

"It's all the children's own efforts and smartness!"

The dean said modestly, but there was uncontrollable pride on his face.

Last night, he ran to the mayor's house and said that Qin Muchu was going to show a movie in the cinema tomorrow.

The old man has lived in the town for so many years, and he has done good deeds and accumulated virtue all his life, which is quite prestigious.

I heard that the movie was made by the town's own people, and the mayor immediately agreed.

I also took the initiative to help and called on everyone to go and see it together.

Qin Muchu he has seen, as the mayor of the town, he has also visited the orphanage, and Qin Muchu is the eldest child in it.

Handsome.,With a calm and different from other children.,Very sensible.。

Before, Qin Muchu went to Yanjing to study art, and the town was spread all over the town.

In these years, it is already big news to be able to get out of the town, let alone go to the capital to be an artist.

……

The movie begins and the cinema gradually quiets down.

The two hours passed quickly, and when the movie ended, many people had red circles in their eyes.

"Xiao Qin, you kid, why do you have to shoot the child's father to death? How pitiful this kid is that he doesn't have a father at such a young age. ”

A middle-aged woman walked up to Qin Muchu and complained.

"Aunt Wang, the movies are all fake, besides, wasn't the child adopted by the section chief?"

Qin Muchu explained with a smile.

This Aunt Wang lives next door to the orphanage, and it is mentioned in her diary that watching Qin Muchu grow up, Qin Muchu has eaten many times at her house.

"Alas, my aunt also knows that it's all fake, isn't it distressing? You can't make movies like this in the future......"

Aunt Wang was still sobbing a little.

"Hey, hey, definitely, definitely!"

What else could Qin Muchu do, he could only agree with a smile.

Gradually, the people in the cinema are almost gone.

Qin Muchu supported the dean and walked on the way back:

"Dean, how's it going? Are movies good? ”

The dean didn't speak after watching the movie, and he looked preoccupied.

Qin Muchu was a little apprehensive, even more apprehensive than at the premiere.

Compared with others, he cares more about the evaluation of the movie by the old man in front of him.

"Xiao Qin, have you grown ......up?"

The dean didn't say anything about the movie, he looked at Qin Muchu, stretched out his hand, and wanted to touch Qin Muchu's head, but found that he couldn't reach it.

Qin Muchu hurriedly bowed his waist and lowered his head.

The dean smiled with satisfaction and touched Qin Muchu's head.

"It's so fast, when I think about it, you were so tall."

The dean stretched out his hand and measured the height.

"In the blink of an eye, you're an adult."

"The children in the courtyard, I can't worry about you the most. You were sensible when you were a child, took care of your younger siblings, and helped me do things. ”

The dean looked at Qin Muchu, and his cloudy eyes were full of vicissitudes:

"But the more sensible you are, the more uneasy I become. I'm afraid that you will be wronged, and you will endure it yourself and not tell me......"

"Dean'......"

Qin Muchu's eyes turned red for some reason.

"Baby, don't cry, don't cry."

The dean wiped the tears from the corners of Qin Muchu's eyes with his hand.

"When I saw your movie today, I was relieved, you have grown up and have the ability to take care of yourself.

I'm old, and I know that you want to make a movie for me, but I'm afraid that I can't wait until then, you can rest assured that everything will be assured, and who will enlighten you when the time comes? ”

The dean said, his voice choked up.

Qin Muchu was taken to an orphanage by him when he was more than a year old, raised for more than ten years, and became his own grandson.

"Dean, don't talk nonsense, I'll show you every movie in the future, and you have to see me stop making it all the time."

The dean was happy and said with a smile:

"You kid, clean nonsense! So how many years do I have to live? It's over seventy, it's time to be content, to see you become a talent, enough, enough......"

……

Two days later.

Qin Muchu sullenly collected his luggage.

The dean muttered on the sidelines:

"This bacon is carrying, you like to eat it; Bring sausages too, Yanjing doesn't have it......"

"Yanjing doesn't, so I'll stay and eat for a few more days?"

Qin Muchu stopped packing his luggage and immediately slapped the dean.

"Nonsense, you're just wasting your time here, go back early, and be busy with yourself."

The dean continued to stuff things into the bag.

Qin Muchu saw that the dean was resolute, so he could only continue to pack his luggage.

Everything was packed, and when I came there was a backpack, but when I left, it was two or three big bags full.

It's all a small town specialty.

"Let's go, call me when you get to Yanjing."

The dean sent Qin Muchu to the door.

Aunt Wang next door went to the county to do errands today, and she rode an electric tricycle to carry Qin Muchu.

"Got it." Qin Muchu replied.

"By the way, Xiao Qin, I haven't told you something yet." The dean hesitated.

"What?"

"After a while my son picked me up and went to live with him, and he was no longer in town."

"What?"

As soon as Qin Muchu was excited, he was about to jump out of the car.

"Don't come down, don't come down!"

The dean stopped and continued:

"I'm old, my son is not at ease, it's okay to take me to live with him."

"That ......"

"Here you go, here's the address, I'll be here from now on."

The dean knew what Qin Muchu was going to say, so he handed him a note.

"Okay, I got it."

Qin Muchu took the note and looked at it.

When the director went to his son's place, he was more relieved than if he lived alone in an orphanage and no one took care of him.

"Xiao Qin, sit tight, let's go. Old man, we're leaving! ”

Aunt Wang is leaving.

"Alas, well, ride slowly, pay attention to safety!" The dean instructed.

said to Qin Muchu again:

"When you arrive in Yanjing, remember to call me."

Qin Muchu nodded.

The three wheels were started, and they went into the distance, and the town became farther and farther away......

……

Yanjing Courtyard House.

Qin Muchu hurriedly walked into the room and plugged in his mobile phone.

On the plane, he found that his mobile phone was out of battery and turned off.

After charging for a while, the phone turned on.

"Dingdingding......dingding"

A series of beeps sounded like they were about to explode.

Qin Muchu saw that there were more than a hundred missed calls and hundreds of text messages.

The calls were basically made by Jiang Wen, Jiang Wu and Yang Mi, and two from Mr. Chen Daomin and several other actors in the movie, and even Liu Xiqian and Huang Daming also called.

Qin Muchu was a little puzzled, although he said that he had been missing for two days, but before leaving, he told Jiang Wen to go back to his hometown, why did the call make it as if he was missing.

After calling the dean to report his safety, he dialed Jiang Wen again.

As soon as he connected, before Qin Muchu could speak, he heard Jiang Wen's voice on the other end.

Unlike in the past, today is particularly anxious.

"Qin Muchu? You kid went back to his hometown and was locked up? I'm going to call the police! ”

"Well, no, I forgot to charge my phone. Isn't it only three days? ”

"It's only been three days? Plus you lost contact for almost eighty hours that night! Jiang Wen's voice was full of anger.

"Yo, you're good at math and fast at it!"

"Shao Te is talking nonsense with Lao Tzu! Where are you now? ”

"Courtyard, just arrived, won't I call you back quickly, it's interesting enough!"

"And I have to thank you?"

"No, who is with our father and son, just get your heart!"

"Whoop, whoop"

There was a heavy wheezing sound on the phone.

Qin Muchu was afraid that he would be angry with his "old baby", so he hurriedly asked seriously:

"What are you looking for me for, don't you know when I go back to my hometown?"

Listening to Qin Muchu divert the topic, Jiang Wen's wheezing voice was much calmer.

"Want to know?"

"I don't want to."

"Whoop, whoop"

"I want to know, I want to know, tell me quickly, I'm dying."

Two seconds of silence.

"Fuck off!"

Jiang Wen hung up the phone.

Qin Muchu shook his head, he was still so angry in his forties.

After thinking about it, he called his second uncle Jiang Wu again.

"Hey, young master, this can be regarded as contacting you."

"Second uncle, I forgot to charge my phone when I ran out of power in the past two days, I just called my dad and asked him why he was in such a hurry to call, and he didn't say, didn't you come to ask you?" Qin Muchu replied.

Without waiting for Jiang Wu to speak, he heard a familiar female voice on the phone.

"Uncle Jiang, is it Qin Muchu?"

"Yang Mi? Second uncle, is it Yang Mi? How are you together? ”

Qin Muchu took away his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.

"It's Xiao Yang, and we're still promoting the movie.

Haha, didn't my brother tell you? Do you know how much our movie grossed on the first day? Jiang Wu said impatiently.

"A lot?"

"Too many, 8 million! This is still the first day, we have fewer films! ”

Jiang Wu's voice was excited, almost roaring.

Qin Muchu was stunned.

8 million?

Is it a lot?

In his previous life, the box office was hundreds of millions and billions at every turn, and he remembered that the highest box office on the first day seemed to break one billion.

So is 8 million more or less on the first day?

Without waiting for him to ask, Jiang Wu continued:

"The next day, we came up with a film schedule, and the box office was 15 million in a single day, young master, it was 15 million!"

It seems that there are a lot, and the second uncle who is "not martial" has made dirty words.

"Today, the theater has added more films, and it is estimated that our box office will have to rise, young master, this is so special......"

Jiang Wu choked up excitedly.

"Oh, so second uncle, are you still promoting the movie now?"

Qin Muchu was worried that Jiang Wen would be angry with him just now, but now he was worried that the second uncle would be directly excited, so he could only divert the topic again.

"That's right! The box office is so good, we must strengthen publicity, and now various TV stations have invited us to record programs, begging us to promote the movie! ”

Jiang Wu's voice revealed happiness.

He is not a person who doesn't care much about money, but the high box office is undoubtedly a recognition of the movie and represents an honor.

"Okay, then you guys are busy, I'm sleeping." Qin Muchu said.

On this day, he was very tired from all kinds of transfers and planes.

"Sleep? Master, did you hear what I was saying! The box office is a big hit, and you can still sleep? ”

Jiang Wu suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

"Well, it's good, congratulations ......"

Qin Muchu smirked perfunctorily, suddenly remembered that this was his own movie, and changed his words:

"No, it's the same joy, the same joy!"

There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds.

Half a ring, only to hear Jiang Wu speak:

"Young Master, you are really ...... Cattle breaking. ”

The phone hangs up.

Qin Muchu yawned and made a superficial calculation.

8 million + 15 million = 23 million.

According to the theory of triple box office recovery cost, that is to say, the cost of the movie of 5 million has been recovered, and it has begun to make money?

"It's good, I didn't bankrupt the old baby."

Qin Muchu nodded and went into the bathroom to wash.

……

However, this night is destined to be a sleepless night for the entertainment industry, and countless people are waiting for the box office of "The Gift of Room No. 7", a "sudden" dark horse movie, today.

8 million, 15 million, the box office in just two days has exceeded the total box office of many movies in this era.

Movies usually hit the top box office on the first day, but this movie broke the mold and nearly doubled the box office on the second day.

On this third day, can the box office continue to grow?

The Chinese entertainment industry is in the wind......
