243: Goodbye Yang Mi, summer warm-up
Since the last time "The Condor Heroes" was completed, he and Yang Mi have not come out to see each other alone, and in the face of this invitation, he did not refuse.
Going to university is a big deal.
Can't delay the big honey to become excellent.
So he put down his phone and replied with a line of words: "Well, it's only four o'clock now, I'll find a restaurant later, just enough to chat while eating." ”
soon
Yang Mi's little white rabbit avatar shook a few times, "Okay, I'll invite Brother Ning to dinner, and I'll drive to pick you up (smiley)." ”
"Okay, tell me when you arrive, I'm working on work." After speaking, he closed QQ, opened word, and recorded the idea of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in his head.
This process has lasted for nearly half a month, and now, he has written more than 30,000 words of copywriting related to the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
Wait for the next time I see Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, and take it out to ensure that they are blind, plus the box office blessing of "Assembly Number...... I should have more say in my own right.
Right now
The most important thing is the box office.
The box office of "The Assembly"!
Must not pull the crotch.
If you fail to meet your own and the public's expectations, then you can't compare to Feng and Zhang Shi, and it will be very embarrassing to be made fun of.
therefore
Make sure nothing goes wrong.
Thinking of this, Xu Ning called Wang Jianlin, the boss of Wanda...... Mr. Wang was sitting in the office at this time, discussing with the company's senior executives about the new Wanda Plaza in Suzhou Province.
"Wait a minute, I'll answer the phone." After Wang Jianlin answered the phone, he smiled heartily, "Haha, hello Mr. Xu, I knew you would call me recently." ”
Xu Ning is not surprised by Lao Wang's clever calculations, because his filming has been overwhelmingly publicized.
"Haha, nothing can escape Mr. Wang's clever calculation, I've been worrying about the movie recently......"
Wang Jianlin pretended to be surprised and said, "How could it be...... With your fame, there will certainly be no problem with the movie. ”
"Uncle Wang, it's hard to say, you see Andy's fame is so big, didn't he also make a lot of movies that hit the street at the box office, and the name of spreading poison was almost put on."
Xu Ning's title to Lao Wang has changed, changed to Uncle Wang, Wang Jianlin is also happy, and happily calls him Xiao Xu.
"Xiao Xu, don't worry, when will your movie be released, squeak with your uncle, Wan Da's film scheduling rate must be the highest in the country."
With Lao Wang's words, Xu Ning also put his mind at ease.
Although he himself is a shareholder of Wanda Film and Television, he never participates in the company's affairs.
Even if he can command the general manager of Dongwan Answer Film and Television, it is not good to directly cross Lao Wang.
Therefore, tonight I specially conveyed the meaning through Lao Wang.
Wang Jianlin hung up the phone, and said to the vice president in charge of film and television: "Xu Ning's new movie will be released at the end of June, and you will have a snack then." ”
"It's Mr. Wang, I'll personally connect with Mr. Xu tomorrow." The vice president and Xu Ning knew each other and replied seriously.
On the other side,
Xu Ning hung up the phone and called Han Sanping, and after chatting for a while, the matter of China Film was also settled.
Then there were domestic cinemas such as Shangying, Shinkansen, New Film Federation, Zhujiang and so on, and they made seven or eight calls one after another, contacting all the mainstream domestic cinemas, and then I was relieved.
In 2005, there were 37 cinemas in the country, of which the top five cinemas were mainly distributed in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.
As long as you firmly grasp these three major sectors, the box office will have a certain guarantee, but it is almost meaningless to contact the theater manager by phone.
Then comes the most critical part - gift-giving!! This is another important factor in determining the rate of film scheduling in addition to the box office.
After all, the general manager of the cinema chain is also a working boy, and he also has to eat, so there is room for operation.
Walking downstairs, the eldest sister and the three girls were busy with some company affairs in the living room, Xu Ning handed her a piece of paper: "Sister, the people above need to be taken care of." ”
Xu Xiuyan looked at the list, knew what he meant, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll do it tomorrow." ”
A few minutes later, Yang Mi's phone called, "Sister, I'm not eating at home tonight, and I'm going out for something." ”
"Are you coming back?"
"Not necessarily."
“……”
When I arrived at the gate of the community, I saw a red Cadillac parked at the door, and an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl wearing the uniform of the fourteenth middle school stood next to her.
"Wow, my brother Ning is handsome again." Yang Mi jumped up and ran to him, stared at his face and smiled, "What kind of skin care products do you use, your skin is better than mine." ”
"I use Dabao!" Xu Ning opened the car door.
"Ah, is Dabao so easy to use? I'm going to buy one too. Da Mi Mi raised her eyebrows and happily decided.
"Don't, the people who use Dabao are men with better skin like me, and you need better protection for your thin skin and tender flesh."
"Hahaha, I love to hear that." Yang Mi started the car, drove onto the road, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"Ah, I said I have bad skin, ahh......hhh If you are hurt, Brother Ning, you want to compensate me for a bottle of Dabao, and I will use this. ”
"Okay, I'll get out of the car and buy you a box, and I won't be able to use it up until you graduate from college."
"Haha, then I can save a lot of money, I can save money to buy beautiful clothes and bags."
"If you sign up with my company, I will pay you a salary every month, and you can buy bags as you like." Xu Ning tempted her little by little.
"That's what you said, when I get admitted to college, I'll rely on you." Yang Mi turned his face to look at him.
"Hey, green light, look at the road."
"Woo, why is your side face so perfect...... Alas, hiss, toothache. Yang Mi suddenly covered her mouth and frowned.
"What's wrong with your teeth?" Xu Ning looked at her bulging cheeks and said with concern.
"It's inflamed, and I'm thinking about whether to have a tooth extraction." After Da Mimi finished speaking, she looked at him enviously, "I envy Brother Ning, your face is sharp and feminine, and I ......"
Xu Ning just wanted to comfort her, but when she heard Yang Mi sigh again, she said, "And I'm a little square......"
Xu Ning: "It's okay, it's cute." ”
"I want to lose weight, I went to consult the doctor, and said that extracting wisdom teeth may not slim my face, but extracting the middle tooth maybe, that is, I have to wear braces."
"So ......"
"Yes, I didn't want to get my teeth straightened so quickly, but when I saw Brother Ning's face, I made up my mind."
In her previous life, Yang Mi had to wait until 2006, that is, before the filming of the movie "Door".
After that, her face shape has changed, and she has paid more and more attention to body management, and she has become Yang Mi in the eyes of future generations.
So I came to the conclusion that the wisdom teeth will not make the face smaller, but the middle teeth will be removed and then the braces will be smaller for two years.
The two drove for more than half an hour and came to a roadside restaurant, Yang Mi waved her hand and ordered some authentic delicacies in the old capital.
"Hey, that's really authentic......"
"Haha, that's the taste, it's good."
Xu Ning heard the comments of the two big brothers eating next to him on the food, and suddenly remembered some jokes on the Internet in later generations.
"Old BJ has no roads, it's all authentic...... Hey, this little smell, it's really capped, my old baby. ”
"Poof, hahaha, I'm laughing to death, these uncles, what's so authentic about eating a dirty stall."
"Shhhh Xu Ning knocked Yang Mi's little head with chopsticks, "Hurry up and eat noodles, I'll be in a lump later." ”
"Slippery ......"
Yang Mi immediately took a big sip, and after eating her stomach, she asked seriously, "Brother Ning, what are the four tests of Nortel, what are the interviews?" Do you have a relationship ......"
"You girl, with your strength, do you still have to rely on relationships? Just play normally, the interview is very simple, just ask you some questions, be generous and answer truthfully. ”
"For example, what if the examiner asks me to recite poems and I can't memorize them?" Yang Mi held the bowl and looked at him aggrievedly.
"If you can't memorize it, you can't memorize it, just talk to the examiner directly, honesty is the most important, and the interview mainly depends on your personality......"
After more than an hour, the two finished eating this authentic old BJ food, Yang Mi looked at his watch, and asked him out for a while.
Walking on the road, the two glanced at each other, Yang Mi suddenly lowered her head shyly, "Brother Ning, what do you think I'm doing, do I have something on my face?" ”
At this time, although Yang Mi's face is not delicate enough, her voice is very good, there is a feeling of swishing, milky voice.
Xu Ning loves to listen.
Yang Mi seemed to know that her voice was very charming, so she said a few words even more coquettishly.
And Xu Ning kept his mind tightly and said:
"No, I just think the sweater you wore today seems to be a little small, have you grown up a little lately, and it fits quite well last time I saw you wearing this dress."
"Hahaha, you're so bad." Yang Mi covered her mouth and laughed, and then tightened her open trench coat.
After running a few steps forward, Da Mimi turned around and walked backwards, picked up her long hair and smiled, "Do you want to see it?" ”
Xu Ning smiled: "Ah, what are you looking at? ”
"Haha, I won't show you ......" After speaking, Yang Mi jumped and ran to the front, and Xu Ning also followed.
More than an hour later, Yang Mi sent Xu Ning to the door of the courtyard, rolled down the window and looked at him with a smile: "Brother Ning, goodbye!" ”
Xu Ning waved his hand: "Well, slow down on the road, you pick me up here tomorrow morning, and I will accompany you to the interview." ”
Following.
Morning.
Yang Mi ran to his door to wake him up, and then the two of them ate some soy milk, fritters and tea eggs, and got into the car to the door of Nortel.
At this time, a lot of students had gathered at the gate of Nortel, and in order not to cause a sensation, Xu Ning wrapped himself very tightly.
At the gate of Nortel, he also saw several acquaintances, Zhang Xiaofei, Yuan Shanshan and Cao Yunjin's wife Tang Wan.
Xu Ning didn't know much about the others.
In the 2005 Nortel undergraduate acting class, there don't seem to be any famous people except for Da Mimi.
When Yang Mi entered the campus at eight o'clock, he went to Feile Company and took Yu Zhengxiang to the recording studio to record songs.
The producer invited this time is still Sanbao, and the two have a tacit understanding on their last album and have almost become a fixed partner.
"You are really the most talented singer I have ever met, all kinds of music styles are at will, I am not as good as you."
"In this song, the combination of national instruments, electric guitar and bass interprets what Chinese style is in a new way."
"The guzheng is gaining momentum, the Chinese drum and the synthetic drum are majestic, the rhythm is very strong, and the erhu comes out, and the Chinese style shows the ......"
“……”
Sanbao did not hesitate to praise him, and Yu Zhengxiang on the side took over the conversation in a timely manner, "I dare to say that in the Chinese music scene, Xu Ning alone can hold up half the sky." ”
Xu Ning laughed and said: "Don't, Mr. Yu, if I were half the sky, where would Wang Feng's face go......"
"Haha, what's the matter with him?" Lao Yu and Sanbao asked together, "Wang Feng's level is just like that." ”
Wang Banbi's title, until 2015, his team posted an article "Without Wang Feng, the mainland music scene has lost half of the country" to fight back against Xiaohezi, and it will not be ridiculed by netizens.
At this time, it was still early for this matter, and it was normal for them to not know about Sanbao, so they thought Xu Ning was joking.
But to be honest, Wang Feng's song "Fly Higher" released last year is quite good, a bit level.
After a few people chatted, they started recording.
The song "Huo Yuanjia" is a typical Chinese-style song, with a catchy melody, and once released, it will definitely become popular.
"I think this song is a lot better than your previous single "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", by the way, I have to make a music video."
After Yu Zhengxiang sent Xu Ning in, he began to arrange the plan to shoot the MV, and when an hour passed, Xu Ning and San Bao came out of the recording studio, and Yu Zhengxiang also handled the shooting of the MV.
"It's all done, the studio is booked according to your requirements, and you still need to give a list of specific styles......"
"Well, Brother Xiang is hard, let's go eat first, I'm hungry after a morning." Xu Ning took a big sip of water and took the lead to walk outside.
In the afternoon, Yu Zhengxiang found him a group of dance partners and invited a teacher who was good at choreography to choreograph.
Three days later, he took the storyboard he had drawn, led a group of dance partners, and spent half a day on the studio, completing about half of the scenes in the MV.
The rest has to wait until the "Huo Yuanjia" movie comes out, and then cut some wonderful shots into it.
On the other side,
Jingcheng No. 14 Middle School.
Yang Mi looked at the text message received on his mobile phone about the interview pass, and almost jumped up with excitement, which made the English teacher who was lecturing on the podium very confused.
It turned out to be a text message from Nortel.
Yang Mi was surprised that she could win the first place.
Because, she hasn't studied acting much before...... It seems that the opponent of the same period is too weak.
There is not a single one who can fight.
"Yang Mi, what about leaving this class, why are you so surprised?" The young English teacher lifted his glasses and said earnestly, "Students, the college entrance examination is coming soon, everyone needs a snack." ”
"If you can't pass more than two books in the college entrance examination in the capital, then the shame will be thrown to your grandma's house."
After speaking, the teacher caught a glimpse of two boys in the back row of the classroom who were sleeping soundly, and his angry teeth were itching: "There are still people sleeping, how can you sleep at your age?" ”
Seeing that the two second ancestors in the back row did not bird themselves, the English teacher pointed the finger at Yang Mi again, "Yang Mi, what were you doing just now, did you look at your phone when you looked down?" ”
As he spoke, he walked over.
Pointing to the mobile phone in Yang Mi's hand and shaking his head, "You said that you took leave to attend Nortel's interview for two days in three days, and you didn't listen carefully in class, can you be admitted to university?" ”
Yang Mi replied weakly: "Teacher, I passed the Nortel interview, and as long as the cultural score is not too bad, I can get into the ......."
The English teacher was like a dumb person eating coptis, his face was red from choking, and he turned his head and said the next sentence:
"Okay, I know you've acted in several dramas and you're a little star, but we also have to learn cultural knowledge, right?"
"To be a star, you must also be the most literate star, don't be an illiterate ...... in the entertainment industry"
Yang Mi grinned: "I know the teacher, there is still more than a month left, I must study hard and get a score." ”
The teacher nodded with satisfaction, walked back to the podium to continue the class, and Yang Mi immediately took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Xu Ning.
"Dingding!"
Xu Ning picked up the mobile phone, saw that it was a good news message sent by Yang Mi, knocked a few words with his fingers and went back, and continued to chat with Jielun on QQ.
Next month, "Initial D" will be released, and Jay Chou is a little nervous at this time, because this is his film debut.
Jayron, a person who cherishes face so much, attaches great importance to the box office, because only when the box office is high, can he prove himself in front of his fans and make his fans feel face.
Jayron: "I'm so afraid of hitting the street!" QAQ”
Xu Ning: "You designated to win the box office champion." ”
Jayron: "Haha, or my brother Ning speaks nicely, by the way, how about your directorial debut?" When will it be released? I'll give you the platform. ”
Xu Ning: "Around the beginning of July, sandwiched between your "Initial D" and Xu Ke's "Seven Swords", I was also a little nervous. ”
Jayron: "Dwarf oil, you don't have to be nervous, your box office appeal has been confirmed, just sit back and wait for the box office......"
Xu Ning: "You talk well, locomotive, alas......"
Jayron: "Haha......"
Past
After the release of "Initial D" on June 23, it cut 63 million in the mainland market, ranking fourth in the year, second only to "Seven Swords", which won 83 million at the box office.
In Xiangjiang and Baodao, "Initial D" went crazy, and they were the box office champions of the year, but the highest was only more than 37 million Hong Kong dollars.
It is not difficult to see from this number that with the decline of the Xiangjiang film industry, more than 30 million can reach the top of the list...... It is not ranked in the top 10 in the mainland.
It was in the past two years that Xiangjiang filmmakers officially embraced the mainland film market.
The center of Chinese-language films has also completely shifted from Xiangjiang to the mainland.
……
It's the end of May, the summer season is coming, and more than a dozen movies are stepping up their promotional offensive to get a piece of the pie this holiday.
Xu Ning is not far behind.
While following Jay Chou to promote "Initial D", he held several fan meetings with the trailer of "Assembly Number" and the new song "Huo Yuanjia".
End of June.
"Initial D" won a high box office of 7 million nationwide on the first day of release, more than 3 million more than the foreign movie "Star Wars 3" released in the same period.
And Xu Ning was holding the last fan meeting before the release of the movie on the Nortel campus, and Liu Yifei, Fan Binger, Hu Jun, Zhang Hanyu and others were all present.
There were more than 100 media and more than 4,000 fans present, which surrounded the entire Nortel auditorium.
Thank you all for your commuter passes and recommended tickets!
