Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 691 Box Office Champion
At the end of the year, Han Zhaoshe, who went out to do business for half a year, returned to Liao Province. After resting at home for a few days, he went to visit He Ping's house.

As soon as I walked in, I started complaining.

"Brother, I regret it! I regret not listening to you!"

"What's the matter!"

Han Zhaoshe then told He Ping about the things he had encountered while taking his uncle to do business in the past six months.

When negotiating with others, he interrupted to let the opponent guess his reserve price, when he encountered a robbery, he was frightened into a quail, and when he got on the train, he lost the bag containing the treasury bills...

In short, there are a lot of embarrassing things, and there is nothing wrong with filming "On the Journey" for him.

He Ping shook his head after hearing this. He didn't lament Han Zhaoshe's experience in the past six months, but felt that Han Zhaoshe still didn't understand the real reason why he didn't suggest Han Zhaoshe take his uncle to do business.

This kind of thing has to be understood by oneself, or simply see the matter.

During this time, Mao Xueshan, the father-in-law who had been away for half a year, also returned home.

Since the establishment of the Global Good Farmer Charity Foundation and the announcement of donating the first batch of Chunxiao Hope Primary Schools in Longjiang Province, the father-in-law stayed outside for more than half a year. complain.

However, Mao Xueshan never tires of it. After retiring to the second line, in order to better manage the cause of the charity foundation, he even gave up the idle job given by the government, and devoted himself to running for the Global Good Farmer Charity Foundation.

The train tickets accumulated over the past year are two fingers thick.

He Ping felt a little ashamed of his father-in-law. He originally wanted to find something for him to do after retirement, but he didn't expect to keep the old man so busy.

However, Mao Xueshan didn't care. "I have been busy with the revolutionary cause all my life, and I can still shine when I get old. There is nothing better than this."

The construction of the first batch of Chunxiao Hope Primary Schools has been completed. Mao Xueshan gave himself half a month’s leave to go home to recuperate. By the way, he will take care of his little granddaughter, He Youyou, and is planning the second batch next year. The location of Chunxiao Hope Primary School.

Holding the resources of hundreds of Hope Primary Schools, Lao Zhangren has now become the most popular figure in many impoverished counties in China, and has hundreds of invitations to visit him.

"Dad, don't push yourself too hard. It's the same for others to go for the inspection." Mao Chunhua persuaded during the meal.

Mao Xueshan said: "I don't feel relieved to let other people go. There are so many places in the country that need support, we have a clear score, and where is the place that needs our money the most."

"Then you can't be more busy than you were when you were working?" As he spoke, Mao Chunhua gave He Ping another look. The meaning was obvious. If it weren't for you, Dad wouldn't be so busy.

He Ping pretended to be dead while picking up bowls for dinner, so he still had to keep a low profile at this time.

"I'm busy with business." Mao Xueshan said stubbornly.

Mao Chunhua saw that his father was obsessed with obsession, so he raised his most powerful weapon, "You have been out for half a year, and you don't know you anymore."

As soon as he mentioned the lovely granddaughter, Mao Xueshan immediately changed his face, his face was full of love and pity, he looked at He Youyou in Mao Chunhua's arms and said: "Oh! Grandpa's lovely granddaughter, how can I not know grandpa, these days grandpa I'm not going anywhere, just stay at home with my granddaughter."

Mao Chunhua enjoyed watching it, and he didn't seem to have enjoyed such treatment when he was a child.

He Youyou, who is more than eight months old, is indeed worthy of such love. She has learned to speak out of pink and jade. No matter who talks to her in the family, she will make a cute "ahhh" sound, and then click the water spirit The big eyes of the spirit look at you, and it can melt people's hearts.

When He Ping was enjoying family happiness at home, Lin Yanan, who was far away in Xiangjiang, was sitting in the movie theater with anxiety.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The ink-style words of Kanto Film and Television appeared in the opening title, the music faded away, and the movie's plot began.

Today is the release date of the first movie "God of Gamblers" invested by Guandong Film and Television in Xiangjiang. As an outsider, Lin Yanan has been trembling in the past six months, maintaining the relationship between all parties like walking on thin ice.

The investment in the first movie that was invested reached 1500 million Hong Kong dollars, which was beyond Lin Yanan's expectations, and it was completely different from her original plan.

But as Mr. He said, geographical advantages and people are different from us, so there is no reason not to take a gamble.Even if it fails, you can still earn a reputation of buying horse bones with thousands of dollars, which will only benefit and not harm you in opening up the market in Xiangjiang in the future.

For more than three months since "God of Gamblers" was filmed, she was under so much pressure that she suffered from insomnia every day.

Traveling thousands of miles away to expand the territory for the company, and betting big on a good start for the company, no matter what happened, she felt a lot of pressure after her 27th birthday.

Fortunately, Wen Jun was quite capable as a helper, and he shared a lot of difficulties and pressure for him.

Today is the official release day of "God of Gamblers", Wen Jun invited many friends, and Lin Yanan also invited Zhu Shimao, the only star he knew well in Xiangjiang.

Lao Mao has stayed here since he went to Xiangjiang to promote "Heroes" this year. He is now the "first brother" of the brokerage company under Guandong Film and Television. Besides him, Guandong Film and Television has also signed several actors, screenwriters and directors.

Among them is Zhou Xingchi, whom He Ping and Lin Yanan mentioned. At this time, Zhou Xingchi is only a little famous in the Xiangjiang film industry, and has not yet become popular in Hong Kong with his nonsensical funny style.

He is currently filming the movie "A Comic Going to the End of the World" invested by Kanto Film and Television. This movie has an investment of 300 million and the project was just approved last month.

Mr. Lin made it very clear that he invested in this movie just to praise him.

Zhou Xingchi was so excited to hear the news that he didn't sleep well for two consecutive days. He had to devote 120% of his energy and vowed to make this movie well and live up to Mr. Lin's kindness of cultivation.

Looking back at Lin Yanan, the tense look on her face gradually relaxed as the plot progressed, she was unconsciously attracted and fascinated by the plot.

An hour and a half passed quickly, and Lin Yanan was startled when the end credits of the movie appeared on the screen.

"ended?"

Wen Jun next to her smiled and said, "It's over!"

"How is it?" Lin Yanan asked nervously and apprehensively.

Wen Jun said: "Mr. Lin, haven't you watched the finished film twice?"

"I can't call it right!"

Wen Jun didn't answer her question, he grabbed her and walked to the front of the stage. At this time, the main creators of the movie "God of Gamblers" had already got up and went to the temporary stage set up in front of the screen.

As the staff in front of and behind the film came onto the stage, applause erupted in the auditorium. From pattering to thunderous applause, it only took five seconds.

Lin Yanan was a little shy when she was dragged onto the stage, but when she saw the sincere smiling faces of the audience in the opposite auditorium and heard the thunderous applause in her ears, a strong sense of pride and enthusiasm suddenly surged in her heart. pride.

This is probably the charm of the movie!
As the producer, Lin Yanan appeared at the premiere of the film for the first time, and for the first time understood the origin of the term "dream making machine" in the film.

At noon the next day, Lin Yanan was sitting in his office in Causeway Bay, and received the box office data collected by all movie theaters in Hong Kong.

"1324889?"

Lin Yanan didn't understand the meaning behind this number, while Wen Jun looked excited.

"130! Exploded! Exploded!"

Lin Yanan was not as excited as Wen Jun, "It's not that exaggerated, is it? The box office was the highest a few days before the movie was released. According to this figure, we should have no problem recovering the cost, but it is a bit difficult to make money!"

During this period of time, Lin Yanan learned about Xiangjiang's current film market situation.

"Mr. Lin, you forgot, we only go to 23 theaters now."

After Wen Jun's reminder, Lin Yanan remembered that they only talked about 23 theaters for the first movie when they first arrived.

89 was the pinnacle of Xiangjiang movies, at least for Xiangjiang Cinemas.This year, the total number of cinemas in Hong Kong was 121.

However, Kanto Film and Television's first film, which cost a huge investment of 1500 million, was released in only 23 theaters, which is enough to show the difficulty of the company's development.

These 23 theaters are still aiming at the names of director Wang Jing and actor Chow Yun-fat!
In the past two years, Chow Yun-fat has turned black in Xiangjianghong, not purple.

He starred in "Shanghai Bund" in 80 and became popular in Hong Kong. After that, he moved to the film industry but failed one after another. He won the title of "box office poison" and his career fell into a trough.

This state lasted for a few years, until he met John Woo, with the wonderful performance of "Little Pony" in the movie "The True Colors of Heroes", he turned salty fish over and became a big star in the Hong Kong film industry to compete with Jackie Chan in one fell swoop .

His appearance in "God of Gamblers" this time is entirely due to Wen Jun's invitation and the sky-high salary of 600 million yuan.

Since the success of "The True Colors of Heroes", his film salary once soared to 400 million. In 1987, among the top [-] top-grossing films in Hong Kong, he alone occupied seven seats. This record can only be compared with Zhou Xingchi later.

So even in 87, the sky-high salary of 400 million yuan was offered, and some investors still recognized the price.Chow Yun-fat's appeal is not only in Xiangjiang, but also in Nihong, Southern Dynasties, and Southeast Asia. The production company invests in a movie without any content, just name it with the words "Zhou Runfa". There will be a bunch of foreign filmmakers coming to offer quotations, which is the appeal of superstars.

However, as his face has gradually become familiar to the audience in the past two years, the box office myth of 87 has never been reproduced.

This time Wang Jing invited him to act in a movie produced by a mainland company, he was a little hesitant, but faced with the sky-high salary of 600 million yuan, he couldn't help but be tempted and chose to act.

"23 theaters, 132 million box office. If 46 theaters, 264 million..." Wen Jun counted the box office with his fingers, and the more he counted, the more excited he became.

"No, I want to make a call. These theaters are rushing to the street, and they don't make any money. Our movie's box office is at least the top ten of the year. Call, call..."

Lin Yanan looked at Wen Jun and began to call the theaters one by one.

Two hours later, Wen Jun finally put down the phone, and Lin Yanan's eyes were on him the whole time.

He said to Lin Yanan in a hoarse voice: "Boss Lin, live up to expectations, 71 theaters."

"71 movie theaters? Show our movie?" Lin Yanan asked in disbelief.

Wen Jun nodded heavily and said, "That's right!"

For a moment, ecstasy occupied Lin Yanan's heart, and she hugged Wen Jun regardless of her reserve, "Good job! Good job!"

A week later, Lin Yanan took the box office data fed back by the movie theater, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

In seven days, "God of Gamblers" created a super high box office of 1964 million, ranking first in the box office list this week.

"So far, among all the films released this year, none of the films released this year can surpass the box office of "God of Gamblers", including Jackie Chan's "Miracle", "Wen Jun said.

"You mean, "God of Gamblers" is likely to become the box office champion of Xiangjiang movies this year?" Lin Yanan couldn't believe it.

Wen Jun nodded slightly.

Lin Yanan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, did this count as overfulfilling the boss's task?
She even started to fantasize about sitting in He Ping's office and reporting to her boss the future development plan of the company.

He Ping was not too surprised when he got the news that "God of Gamblers" was a big hit at the box office. He encouraged Lin Yanan and hung up the phone.

Lin Yanan, who was just a little pigtailed in his heart, was hit by the boss's unfathomable thoughts.

how?Are you not satisfied with the box office of almost 2000 million a week?You want to go to heaven?
He Ping encouraged Lin Yanan to continue talking with Chen Jiadong.

Chen Jiadong just arrived in the Xingang Economic Zone yesterday. Yuejiang Real Estate entered the Northeast's first shopping mall in the boss's hometown, so he couldn't help but take a break at the hotel late last night, and reported to He Ping early this morning.

"The feasibility study proves the consumption potential of Hantun, so I'm not using power for personal gain."

"Mr. He, what are you talking about? Although Hantun is only a village, the economic benefits it can create can directly drive the development of the entire region. The company has already researched the development and development of Hantun in the Yingcheng area for more than a month. Employment is written in the report, and the current level of prosperity here is already higher than that of the city center in other regions, and the potential in the future is even more unlimited, and it is no problem to maintain a shopping mall like our Yuejiang."

He Ping was flattered by Chen Jiadong's flattery. Hantun's development has always been his pride, and Chen Jiadong has scratched his head today.

"It's not that exaggerated. The most important core of the Xingang Economic Zone in the future is Yingcheng Port. Our place is at best a relatively prosperous business district."

Chen Jiadong caught a glimpse of the boss's face, and he didn't know that he had slapped the right ass|butt, and when he didn't pat at this time, he would wait.

After a flattering meal, He Ping found Chen Jiadong even more pleasing to the eye, and the successor Lao|Jiang found was really shrewd and capable.

He took Chen Jiadong to have a meal at home by the way, which made Chen Jiadong flattered.

Enjoying the boss's family dinner?
Before Chen Jiadong came here, he didn't even dare to think about such a good thing. I'm afraid Mr. Jiang has never enjoyed such treatment, has he?

He happily finished his meal at He Ping's house. After the meal, he listened to the boss's instructions with great content, and he didn't leave until the afternoon.

The name "Yuejiang Shopping Mall Xingang Store" originally set by the company needs to be changed. He thinks "Yuejiang Shopping Mall Hantun Store" sounds better and is down-to-earth!
