The first time in the car,

Xiao Zhao was nervous.

She is usually articulate, but now she seems clumsy.

But Xu Ning loves this feeling, if it is the kind of big sister who is familiar with the road, it makes him not interested.

……

Early the next morning.

The sky is bright, the morning dew has not yet dispersed, and the wide road in the capital is already full of traffic.

Airport Expressway.

"A few days ago, the concrete cofferdam of the Three Gorges Dam was successfully blasted! The successful dismantling of the 480-meter-long, 30-meter-high concrete cofferdam marks the opening of the Three Gorges Dam in 17 days, and the Three Gorges Project has entered a new stage......"

The news was playing on the radio.

At this point,

Xiao Zhao sat in the co-pilot, drinking soy milk and eating Sanxian xiaolongbao, his feet dangling, and feeding Xu Ning a bite from time to time.

After hearing this news, she rarely cared about a national event, swallowed the bun, and said very happily:

"Wow, the Three Gorges Dam has been completed? It feels amazing...... I heard when I was five or six years old that this was going to be built. ”

"Yo, Xiao Zhao is quite happy today!" Xu Ning said with a smile.

"Ahaha, boss, how do you know I'm happy?" Zhao Liying blinked her eyes and asked obediently.

"You don't usually care about these things, but today you actually commented on them...... Isn't it, last night was blissful? ”

"Hey, I'm going to ignore you." Xiao Zhao's face was red, and after two or three seconds, he smiled and said, "Next time, can you not be in the car, I'm so shy." ”

Not in the car?

That's not a waste of space!

"Look at the mood!"

"Okay~"

soon

came to the airport, sent Xiao Zhao to the plane in the magic capital, and told him to film well, Xu Ning turned around and returned to the company.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Xu Xiuyan knocked on the door and walked in: "Su Man, the editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar, sent an email last night and wanted to do an interview with you." ”

At this point,

He was looking at the set photos sent back by Kang Honglei, the director of "Soldier Assault", in which the Seventh Steel Company was training daily.

Xu Ning raised his head, turned the chair to the window, thought for a while, and said, "Yes, if you have time, you can arrange it." ”

Xu Ning's schedule,

Basically, Xu Xiuyan is planning, and he generally doesn't ask too much about these little things.

Xu Xiuyan smiled:

"Harper's Bazaar is a magazine specializing in high-end business women, and those celebrities want to be in their magazines when they are crowded...... My brother doesn't seem to care at all! ”

He did not care a little.

It's just a magazine, and it doesn't have much impact if it's not on it.

Plainly

It's just a conversation point to go out and pretend to be with your peers.

But Xu Ning doesn't need this now.

If he had stayed in the past, when he first debuted, maybe he would have been excited.

But now,

He has capital, fame, appeal, and some connections that are difficult for ordinary people to reach......

There is less need to be in these magazines.

Besides, Harper's Bazaar is not as influential as his.

Now he can post a post on the post bar casually, which can attract the attention of at least millions of fans.

Is Harper's Barzaar OK?

If Weibo comes out in the future, it will be even more terrible, and it should not be a problem to get tens of millions of fans.

Now the editor-in-chief Su Man is looking for him to do an exclusive interview, which is to take advantage of his popularity, and they should be happy.

But when you think about it,

But the face work still has to be done, and people finally come to the door, so they naturally have to be enthusiastic.

"Sister, Editor-in-Chief Su wishes I could be in her magazine and increase sales for her." Xu Ning smiled and said, "Just kidding, you can say that I am very happy, and I am waiting for you in the near future." ”

Xu Xiuyan stretched out her hand and poked his head, and said dotingly: "I know, my brother is the best." ”

"Of course! My sister's younger brother must be amazing. After a pause, "Come with me to the crew of "Struggle" at noon to visit the class and bring some delicious food to the company's artists." ”

"Haha, okay, it's all suffocated in the company." Xu Xiuyan was very happy when she heard that she was going to go out to play.

"Well, you call Liu Yinyin and Tang Wei, and ask them to prepare some watermelon, ice cream and other foods to relieve the heat, and I will take them to the restaurant for lunch."

An hour later,

Chaoyang, Qingnian Road.

A nanny car slowly stopped under the director's shed, and Gao Yuanyuan, Zhu Yawen and others not far away saw the car and ran over.

"Quick, the boss is here, the boss is here." Zhu Yawen ran in the first place, howling in his mouth.

"Boss, boss, I'm here."

“……”

Xu Xiuyan: "Yawen, come and move things." ”

Xu Ning held an ice cream in one hand and walked down from the back row, and Zhu Yawen swallowed his saliva when he saw it: "Boss, I want to eat." ”

Xu Ning kicked him with a smile: "Eat chicken feathers, quickly help your sister Xiuyan move watermelon and ice cream." ”

walked to the side of Gao Yuanyuan and handed over the ice cream, Yuan Yuan happily took it, and the surroundings suddenly coaxed.

Zhu Yawen: "Woo woo...... The ice cream is so sweet, I want to eat it too, Luo Jing, little hello, feed me, hmm......"

Luo Jing went up to a big fighter, "Get a man, go farther, don't delay me to help Sister Xiuyan move things." ”

There are not many people on the set today, only Tong Dawei, Gao Yuanyuan, Zhu Yawen and Luo Jing and others.

Guo Zhenni and Jing Tian are not playing today, and the two of them don't know where to run.

stayed on the set for an hour, and Xu Ning and Xu Xiuyan also made a cameo appearance as a passing sister and brother.

After it is over,

With the crew and actors, a total of more than 20 people, came to a nearby store for wine and dinner.

The filming of "Struggle" has been more than three months, and it is nearing completion, and it will be completed in about ten more days.

It is expected that in September, the first TV series wholly owned by [epoch-making] will meet the audience.

presently

Two TV stations have reached purchase intentions with the company, namely Beijing Satellite TV and Suzhou Satellite TV.

The first time they starred in a TV series, they could be stars, and Luo Jing and Zhu Yawen and others were excited.

Every day on the set is full of motivation.

Tired Tong Dawei enough.

"Come, I wish "Struggle" a big hit, and I wish you a few successful debuts and a hit!"

Xu Ning took the lead, and everyone responded, Zhu Yawen and Luo Jing opened a bottle of beer and showed off.

"Alas, drink less, I have to film in the afternoon." Zhao Baogang drank a bottle of wine, put down the bottle, and immediately persuaded.

……

The other side.

Magic City.

The crew of "New Shanghai Beach" is also in full swing filming.

During this time, in order to play Ding Li well, in addition to eating and sleeping, Zhang Songwen pondered this character.

When playing against Huang Xiaoming, he did not fall behind at all, and choked Huang Xiaoming's anger.

"You are a newcomer, why are your acting skills so good?" Xiao Ming was very speechless in his heart.

To this end,

Twice on the set against the staff.

But

He didn't dare to sprinkle his anger on Zhang Songwen, after all, this was the person Xu Ning stuffed in, and if he didn't give him face, he wouldn't give Xu Ning face.

Xiao Ming still understands this.

……

The time came to the end of June 2006.

The premiere of "Embroidered Spring Knife" was successfully held, and the scene was attended by celebrities, media, film critics, and audiences.

The reviews of the movie are not low.

But what the final effect will be and how many cents the box office will be, we will have to wait for the release on July 1 and leave it to the audience for judgment.

Taking advantage of Xu Ning's work on the last day of June, Su Man, the editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar, came to the epoch-making company with an assistant and a photographer.

"Hello, Xu Ning! First of all, on behalf of all Harper's Bazaar readers and colleagues, I would like to thank you......"

"Thank you, Miss Su, it's a great honor."

“……”

The two sat on the sofa in the living room, chatted a few words without pain, and then began today's exclusive interview.

Harper's Bazaar magazine not only provides the latest fashion information, fashion trends, women's topics and other reports.

In addition, interviews with the most popular personalities will be published.

Xu Ning's exclusive interview in this issue belongs to the interview with the characters that women pay more attention to.

"Mr. Xu, can you tell us about your growth story when you were a child?" Suman took out the topic that had been prepared a long time ago.

"That's a lot, skipping class to fish in the river, pulling the pigtails of female classmates in class, throwing bricks at the pit, beating bad young people in the same school......"

Xu Ning laughed as he spoke.

I talked for five or six minutes in a row, from kindergarten to high school, and almost all the interesting stories were told again.

Su Man and the people she brought were nodding and laughing throughout the whole process, and in the end, they couldn't help it, and directly "poof......" and "poof......" three times.

"Hahaha, it's so interesting, I feel that the childhood of rural children is so fun." Suman's mind is now full of yearning.

Xu Ning waited for them to finish speaking, and hurriedly corrected: "Don't, it's better not to experience it, the countryside was really hard in the past...... I'm a pleasure in suffering. ”

In the eighties and nineties, the rural areas of northern Soviet Province were still quite poor, and they were far worse than urban children.

But compared with the western countryside, it is a lot better, at least you don't have to worry about eating, drinking, dressing, and going to school.

"Then Mr. Xu, can you tell me why you want to go to Steel to be an actor? What has sustained you so far? ”

Xu Ning opened the system panel, stared at the actor system for a while, and thought: If there is no system, I may go into business.

"Mainly because of love...... You know that in the past, including the current rural areas, movies would be regularly screened, and I definitely became an actor because I watched movies......"

"Which movie?"

"There are quite a lot, "Tunnel Warfare", "Railway Guerrillas", "Behind Enemy Lines", "Shangganling" and so on."

"Are they all anti-war movies?"

"I like to watch ......"

"Haha, I love to watch it too."

afterwards

asked "why is it so handsome", "when do you plan to fall in love", "will you hold a concert", "do you have the confidence to win the best actor" and so on.

The entire interview process lasted from the meeting room to the conference room, from the meeting room to the nanny car, and from the nanny car to the sleeping ...... No, restaurant.

Until lunch,

Suman also asked questions in Balabala.

Xu Ning roughly calculated, and it was estimated that there were forty or fifty topics.

seemingly

In this issue of the magazine, Xu Ning alone will occupy half of the space.

At last

In the company's studio, Xu Ning asked his company's photographer to help him take a set of high-definition pictures.

During the whole filming process, Su Man was swallowing saliva.

"Xu Ning, it's really, a stunner in the world!"

If you let Xu Ning know that Su Man uses the word "stunner" to describe him, give her some color.

Before leaving,

Su Man said the second major event of his visit: "Mr. Xu, this is the first invitation card sent out at the charity dinner held in August, and we sincerely invite you to participate. ”

"Bazaar Star Charity Night?" Xu Ning asked.

"That's right!" Suman looked proud of his work, "You were our first guest. ”

Xu Ning was noncommittal.

This event was actually proposed by Nazakura in 2003, and the clever Suman saw a business opportunity from it, and began to expand the scale of the event in 2004.

Last year's event,

A total of $1.7 million was raised.

This year, there will be more.

I remember that in 2006, the Bazaar Star Charity Night was completely out of the circle and became the country's premier star charity event.

Back then,

Even Xu Ning, who worked in Jinling, saw the news in the newspaper the next day.

This session,

The biggest coffee spot should be the "international superstar" Zhang Ziyi...... At that time, the media also reported with the words "international superstar".

furthermore

and Feng Xiaogang.

and all the actors of his "Night Banquet" crew.

Other celebrities, such as Zhou Gongzi, Uncle Ge, Xu Cainu, Na Ying, Gao Yuanyuan, Fan Bing'er, Xu Fan, Lu Yu and others are also here.

More than 27 provincial media from all over the country came to the scene and competed to report on this grand occasion in the entertainment industry.

At present, Suman has received feedback from many celebrities, so she is very confident in this event.

I just don't know, if Xu Ning goes to the dinner, will the top celebrity be an international Zhang or not?

"We raise funds for people in need by inviting caring people in the entertainment industry to the dinner."

"The funds raised will be transferred to the Charity Federation of Trade Unions as soon as possible, and delivered to those in need as soon as possible."

“……”

Looking at the editor-in-chief Su who was talking eloquently, Xu Ning said with a smile: "Miss Su, don't worry, if I have a schedule, I will definitely support you." ”

That's it,

Su Man didn't say much, and said very interestingly: "Then I will wait for Mr. Xu on September 30!" ”

Xu Ning took the invitation and put it in his pocket, and then sent Su Man and his assistant to the car, "Miss Su, goodbye!" ”

Back to the company.

Li Yitong wore a cute ponytail, wore a short skirt, exposed his white and tender legs, and ran over with a jump:

"Boss, when you go to Harper's Bazaar, can you take me with you, I want to see it too."

This girl has good skin, whether it is her face or arms, or her little hand holding Xu Ning, she is full of girlish atmosphere.

Xu Ning scratched her nose and said with a smile: "I'll talk about it later, I don't have to go yet." ”

Li Yitong smiled:

"As soon as our boss goes, the grade of this dinner will go up immediately, and that editor-in-chief Su probably wants you to go, right?!"

"People are small and big ghosts...... Let's go, follow me upstairs to practice swordsmanship! After speaking, Xu Ning pulled her over and dragged her to the practice room.

The two of them practiced inside.

……

July 1, 0:00.

Beijing, Magic City, Yangcheng, Chengdu, Shancheng, Shenzhen Stock Exchange...... Some movie theaters in first- and second-tier cities are brightly lit and crowded.

90% of the audience is post-80s.

Of these, 60 per cent are women.

Most of the remaining boys came with their girlfriends.

"It's so annoying, let you go buy a ticket early, you have to cut the legend, what should I do if I don't have a ticket now......"

"Hurry up, check the ticket, Erdan quickly bring the Coke and popcorn."

"Tut-tut, Xu Ning's poster in a flying fish suit is so handsome, I'll go buy Hanfu to wear tomorrow, there must be a young lady who likes it."

"After looking at Xu Ning's Hanfu style, I Li Eryu privately thought that China's Hanfu is forever dripping gods!"

"Don't be a god, everyone is in."

"I only bought the last row, it's annoying, the location is not good."

“……”

Meanwhile.

Many fans eat melons online.

"Let's go see it tomorrow, it's two o'clock after watching the show at 0 o'clock, and people like me who can't stay up late will be depressed for a few days after watching it."

"Hahaha, I bought a ticket for the show at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and after reading it, I went to eat seafood with my freshman and little girlfriend, which is delicious."

"I'm in the cinema...... Xu Ning is really handsome in a flying fish suit, wait for me to secretly take a photo and send it to you. ”

"Hurry up..."

"Brother, what about people?"

"I'm grass, you've successfully piqued my interest, dog thief send a picture."

“……”

Ten minutes passed, and the netizen who just said that he was taking pictures finally posted a 50KB photo.

Not only is the photo blurry, but it's also invisible!

"Brothers, I tried my best, my mobile phone can only shoot like this, everyone should come to the cinema to watch it if you have time, support Xu Ning."

In the photo, I can only vaguely see a tough brocade guard holding a bewitching woman in a red dress......

It's okay not to look at it,

The more I look at it, the more it arouses everyone's interest.

Early the next morning, many people couldn't bear it and went to the cinema to buy tickets to watch.

And some of the people who watched the first show are sleeping at home, and some have already crazy recommended "Embroidered Spring Knife" on the Internet.

"Highly recommend "Embroidered Spring Knife", produced by Xu Ning, it must be a high-quality product."

"The plot, the costumes, the props, the actors, the lines...... It's all fantastic, it's the best martial arts movie I've seen in recent years, and it's a bit of a fight with Old Monster Xu. ”

"Master Liu and Xu Ning are really a perfect match in the movie, they are talented and beautiful, I really want them to kiss on the movie...... Ahhh ”

“……”

Due to the summer vacation, the number of moviegoers is guaranteed, and the attendance rate of most theaters in the country is above 60%.

In some movie theaters in prosperous areas such as the magic capital and the capital, there is a situation where it is difficult to find a ticket.

"Embroidered Spring Knife" was released from 0 o'clock to 8 o'clock in the evening, and the total box office in the country has exceeded 17 million, and the first day is over, breaking 20 million things.

It is impossible for this achievement to impact "The City Full of Golden Armor", because when the Golden Armor was released at the end of the year, the box office broke 15 million in five hours.

But

More than his own last film, "The Assembly", maybe it's possible.

After all, "Embroidered Spring Knife" was able to cut 100 million with the quality of the movie without the blessing of big-name actors and no overwhelming publicity in the previous life.

And this time, it was adapted, directed, and starred by Xu Ning, and it was warmed up for half a year, so there is no reason for the box office to be lower.

Just six days later,

The total national box office broke a small target.

The media overwhelmingly reported this record: [In 2006, the fastest movie with a speed of over 100 million was born, and "Embroidered Spring Knife" swept the summer file. ]

Industry insiders have also expressed their views -

Zhang Yimou: "I have always felt that Xu Ning is a genius player, whether he is a director or an actor, he has his own unique opinions...... I am optimistic that "Embroidered Spring Knife" will break 200 million. ”

Feng Xiaogang: "I specially spent 60 yuan to buy a ticket, and after reading it, I will have two words [awesome], in addition, can Director Xu reimburse me for my movie ticket?!" ”

Fang Long: "Wow, it's really good-looking. ”

Zhou Xingchi: "I have watched both of Ning Zai's movies, which suit my appetite very much, and I recommend everyone to go to the cinema to see them." ”

Yang Mi: "Brother Ning's movie still needs to be said, just support it, I took my family to watch it yesterday, there are a lot of people in the cinema!" ”

Liu Yifei: "Brother Ning's movies are always the best, I support Brother Ning, in addition, can I be the heroine?" ”

“………”

The audience's response was much richer.

"I announce today that after the actor industry and the music industry, Brother Ning is once again a god in the director industry."

"Don't talk about anything else, let's just say that the costume is really the ceiling of costume dramas, and it is recommended that other directors learn from it, less fancy and more back to basics."

"At the time of your comment, I had already bought a set of flying fish suits to wear on my body, but why wasn't Xu Ning so domineering!"

"The point is that you're ugly! Don't blame the clothes. ”

"Where do you sell hanfu?"

"Shandong, Cao County!"

“……”

A few days later.

The box office has risen all the way to 150 million.

meanwhile

It quickly set off a wave of Hanfu on the Internet.

Sina Entertainment: [The movie "Embroidered Spring Knife" has sparked a Hanfu craze, and Hanfu merchants revealed that sales have quadrupled compared with before, and the flying fish clothing sells the best.] ]

Especially in the ancient capitals of Xi'an and Jinling.

The streets are full of young people wearing Hanfu.

In order to cater to the preferences of fans, Xu Ning specially summoned Liu Yifei, Liu Shishi, Yang Mi, Li Yitong, Jing Tian and other little beauties to take a set of Hanfu photos.

As soon as the photo came out,

Fans are hooked.

"Wow, Brother Ning, you are really good, after seeing your outfit, I will get pregnant directly on the spot!"

"Upstairs man, it's done!"

"I'm a woman, I'm sleeping with Brother Ning's poster now, woo...... I really envy the girl who can sleep with Xu Ning in her arms. ”

“……”

Since the box office exceeded 150 million, Xu Ning has reduced the number of appearances, and at this time, he has taken Li Yitong to Gansu.

Thank you all for voting for your monthly pass
