I just want to make idol dramas

Chapter 48 Movie Box Office
Xiao-Woo saw a very interesting question in his previous life:

"Why are some past singers unable to buy concert tickets?"

These so-called outdated singers can make a long list, including the most glorious era of the entire Chinese music scene. Compared with current idols, these singers are certainly outdated, but their fans are just old, not dead.

As long as those former idols are still willing to hold concerts, there will naturally be countless people who will buy tickets to support them. In the previous life, those tens of thousands of people sang in a chorus, singers played the piano and fans sang. He questioned whether he had any fans and almost died laughing at him.

This problem also applies to the Huaguo music scene. With the prevalence of short videos and the popularity of idols, the most glorious era of the Huaguo music scene no longer exists.

Times have changed, and Zhou Wen's fans back then have all become working workers, and they are no longer active on the Internet, but when the news of Zhou Wen's new album is about to be released, they suddenly exploded with huge energy and rushed directly to the trending searches.

On the second day after Zhou Wen left, Xiao Yu returned to filming work, the progress of the early stage was slightly delayed, and now he has to recover the progress.

Director Zheng Jigang took advantage of the situation and arranged for him to finish filming the scene in the police station, and the crew went back to make up the bus scene. As soon as he came back, he could act opposite Mr. Tian Zhiyuan, which made Xiao Yu very addicted. This is the most opposite scene he has acted so far. He is a great actor, so he cherishes this opportunity very much.

On July 7th, after 25 days of screenings, "Crash" was released nationwide. It failed to stabilize in the later stage when the box office exceeded 35 million in the first week. The national box office just exceeded 20 billion, reaching the top of Feipiao.com It is estimated that this is already the highest domestic box office record for Li Wenjun. His previous film box office record was 16 billion for the magical film "At This Moment".

Moreover, "Crash" had a score of 8.7 until its release, which is already the highest score of all the films released this year.

However, the movie’s largest box office is not in Huaguo but in Jianguo. During its release, “Crash” grossed a total of 4000 million U.S. dollars at the box office in Jianguo, and the global box office exceeded one billion dollars. It can be said to be huge profits, the kind that Seth and Tianhai can wake up with a smile in their dreams, and this does not include the income from streaming media and offline markets in the future. It can be said that Seth's operating income this year alone is a positive counted.

Even Xiao Yu couldn't explain why this movie became a big hit in this world. Although he won a big award in his previous life and was well-known, his market performance wasn't particularly impressive. Not on the number.

The conflict on the Jianguo side may be more intense. After all, the rise of Huaguo in this world is no longer the era of Jianguo’s world hegemony. The perennial economic downturn, the unemployment rate has increased year by year, and the intensified party struggle has dragged Jianguo into a quagmire. Social conflicts Of course more intense.

During the film's release, social focus incidents occurred again, as if a powder keg was ignited, which directly triggered a wave of movie viewing.

On Huaguo's side, it may be Li Wenjun's status in the arena. With the confidence he has built up in the hearts of movie fans over the years, coupled with his high-profile foray into Hollywood, it's okay when the movie is bad. Once the quality of the movie is good, everyone will more or less support it.

The most important thing is that Huaguo's film market has developed and flourished, the box office has grown by leaps and bounds, and the market can accommodate many high-grossing films at the same time. The combination of these reasons makes this film's box office unexpectedly high.

Anyway, the big success of the film is good for everyone, Li Wenjun personally called to express his thanks to Xiao Yu, but unfortunately he was going to Seth Films to discuss the film festival, so he couldn't come to Xiamei in person.

According to Yu Hui, there has been an endless stream of people asking for scripts during this period of time. Some come to visit in person, some call to inquire, and some ask acquaintances to say hello. As long as the script is written by Xiao Yu, it is best to have some foreign themes. Yes, but they were all rejected by Yu Hui, who can be said to be the person who understands Jin-Woo's business strategy best in this world.

These days, Xiao Yu hid in the film crew, but he had a leisurely time. During the day, he played with the old actors to learn acting skills, and at night, he went to Xiamei with a few young actors, but he and Shen Xingyi were just walking around. .

Xiamen is indeed a beautiful city. Although it is hot during the day, there is a gentle sea breeze blowing at night. Walking on the small road full of literary and artistic atmosphere, there are singers singing softly on the street, and the distant sea is sent a long way under the light. Come Romance.

"Come on, let's go in and have a rest."

Tired from walking, Xiao Yu took Shen Xingyi into a bar at random. Even if it wasn't a weekend, the small bar here was full of tourists from all over the world. The two found a remote corner and ordered two glasses of wine casually.

"The rhythm here is much slower than in Kyoto." Shen Xingyi couldn't help but sigh with emotion as she looked at the people around who were chatting wantonly about life.

"The sea of ​​clouds is slower than here, and our small bar doesn't have so many people."

Shen Xingyi's face was full of envy, "I really envy you people who live by the sea. My wish since I was a child is to see the sea. Unfortunately, our place is full of Gobi."

"Northern Xinjiang is also very good. The vastness of the world has a unique flavor. After seeing it, you will have a broad mind."

Shen Xingyi's expression was exaggerated, "What's so good, you see that the management is very good now, when we were young, we ate sand when the wind blew."

Xiao Yu concluded, "It may be that my parents can only complain about it themselves, and can't let others make irresponsible remarks."

Shen Xingyi agreed, "Yes, I have wanted to see the sea since I was a child, and I will feel homesick only when I really come to the sea."

"I remember you haven't been home for more than a year?"

Shen Xingyi nodded, "Yes, I have been filming for more than a year. During the Chinese New Year, we filmed "The Best of Us" in Yunhai, and then I was busy graduating. A while ago, my parents came to visit me from northern Xinjiang."

The topic unknowingly became heavy, Xiao Yu didn't know what to say for a while, if he didn't go back to Yunhai to film this year, he might be the same as Shen Xingyi, this is the price they chose when they entered the industry.

"When you walk into this happy place"

"All dreams and thoughts on my back"

"All kinds of makeup on all faces"

"No one remembers what you looked like"

At this moment, a burst of singing came from the stage of the bar, breaking the delicate atmosphere, it was Xiao Yu's "Sorrow", since this song was released, it has become a must-sing song in every major Qing bar, winning the love of many literary youths.

Shen Xingyi teased Xiao Yu, "I didn't expect you to be a big singer now. If you didn't act, you would be famous by singing."

"What kind of a star is he who sings three songs? If I don't act, I'm afraid I'll be broadcasting live on some platform. Watching these few songs of mine, I'm still a big anchor with tens of millions of fans."

"Just brag, you still have tens of millions of fans. The combined fans of our two tribes are only more than 1000 million."
