What should I do if my girlfriend is famous and doesn't dump me?

Chapter 355 How long has it been since you called home?

"Changjin Lake" did not consider the international box office from the beginning.

This film is obviously not very popular with foreign fans.

Especially North American fans.

Of course, will it be released abroad?
definitely will.

But the box office is definitely not good.

But mosquitoes are small but also meat!

If you can earn more money, don't you earn it because you don't earn enough?
With the current popularity of the film, the domestic box office can make up for it, and even make some money.

It's just that compared to "Inception" and other films, the earning is a bit unsatisfactory.

Not surprisingly, the first one can earn back the production costs of the two films.

Then the second part is pure profit.

If the box office is almost the same as the first one, then the earnings will still make other film and television companies jealous.

"Inception" has also been drawn.

The box office did not differ from previous estimates.

After all, the domestic box office did not break through [-] billion.

The hurdle of tens of millions is obviously beyond the reach.

Zhang Yu is also busy preparing for his new film.

"Transformers" has been turned on.

It is estimated that Chen Shan's "Pirate" will take some time to prepare, and Ning Yuan's "National Day" should start before it.

However, I'm afraid it will be years later.

In the pre-production of the film, Zhang Yu was not so busy, at least he could go home every day.

Zhang Yu occasionally goes to see the crew of "Transformers".

After all, he was still a little worried about this film.

Although he discussed with Xu Sen many times before starting the machine.

But after all, this film is related to the sales of film peripheral products.

"Transformers" profits are clearly not just box office.

In other words, for Thirteen Film and Television, most of the benefits of this film are not in the box office.

It is the sales of peripheral products.

And it is still a steady stream of profits.

The popularity of the first part of "Transformers" has long faded, and the sales of peripheral products may have declined, but the profit is still good.

If the second part is a big hit at the box office, sales may skyrocket again.

The investment and production cost of "Transformers 2" exceeded that of the first one.

However, the film's ad placement revenue also exceeded that of the first film.

Moreover, the advertisement placement in the second film is not like the gambling agreement signed in the first film.

Even if the film is not directed by Zhang Shisan, the advertising placement fee has increased a lot from the first film.

Although the advertising placement fee of "Transformers" broke the record because it was linked to the box office.

But for those merchants, they made a profit.

Especially the implantation of the most expensive "Bumblebee" car in it made those car manufacturers jealous.

Because the sales of that car exploded with the popularity of "Transformers".

And what about the second part?
There is no need to be linked to the box office, those merchants are willing to pay.

Not only because Zhang Yu used the first film to prove that such a high advertising placement fee is worthwhile, but also because there are too many people who want to "replace" it.

The competition is fierce, so naturally there is no need to sign any VAM agreement.

Even if the box office of the second film is ashes, the advertising placement fee will not be discounted.

Of course, will the film flutter?

The shooting of the film is the same as the first film, first filming the scenes of Xie Qian, Zhao Chen and others.

They need to finish filming quickly, and they still have to participate in the promotion of the second part of "Changjin Lake".

After Zhao Chen participated in the promotion of the film, he had to shoot "National Day" and "Avatar".

The schedule is full.

Fortunately, the two have relatively few scenes in "Transformers".

Should be able to catch up.

"Did what you said last time count?"

During the break, Xie Qian sat beside Zhang Yu and asked.

He seemed a little nervous, but pretended to be very casual.

"What?" Zhang Yu asked.

He said a lot of things, who knows which one you are referring to?
"I transformed into a director." Xie Qian said.

He believed that Zhang Yu would not fool him, but after all, he was not an artist under his banner.

"Script, investment?" Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Naturally no problem."

When Xie Qian heard this, he immediately smiled.

His hanging heart is also considered to have fallen.

"Why, can't you stabilize?" Zhang Yu asked with a smile.

"If you don't make up your mind, it will be today and tomorrow." Xie Qian said.

Zhang Yu nodded.

If you want to try to transform, then that step must be taken.

If you always look forward and backward and hesitate, then what kind of style should you switch to, and you can just film with peace of mind.

"People who are afraid of failure will never succeed." Zhang Yu said, "There is nothing wrong with taking this step bravely."

"Brother, can you say something auspicious? Why do I feel that you are comforting me in advance?"

When Xie Qian heard this, he was speechless.

"Failure is the mother of success!" Zhang Yu said with a smile.

Xie Qian was completely speechless.

What you said is not as good as the previous one.

"Is that why you don't like me?" Xie Qian asked.

"I have a lot of money!" Zhang Yu said, curling his lips, "You are too sensitive."

What do you mean?
If I don't like you, why should I invest in a movie directed by you?

Just because we have a good personal relationship?

Obviously not possible!
Investing, not doing charity.

"You do have a lot of money." Xie Qian said.

He naturally understood the meaning of Zhang Yu's words, but he couldn't help but say something.

How many years has Zhang Yu been on the Forbes Celebrity List in China since his debut?

Anyway, he has been at the top of the list for several years.

And every year, the second place is dropped a lot.

Now it has even entered the world celebrity list, and it is the kind that ranks among the top few.

Moreover, Xie Qian knew very well that Zhang Yu's actual income far exceeded the data published on the list.

That data did not count the income of those industries under Zhang Shisan's banner.

For example, the profit of Thirteen Film and Television is not counted.

Those data only included Zhang Shisan's personal income.

For example, if a movie sells well, the data only counts his director's salary, dividends, etc., and does not count the movie investment profit.

"Who would think too much money?" Zhang Yu said, "So what if you have too much money, you have to be cautious in investing."

Is Zhang Yu cautious in investing?
Xie Qian didn't see it.

However, whether Zhang Shisan invested in film and television or others, it seemed that he rarely lost money.

Maybe he was really cautious, but he only saw the surface.

"You have to be the producer of my film." Xie Qian said, "To be honest, I really don't have much confidence."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll overwhelm the host?" Zhang Yu said.

He served as the producer, and famous directors are a bit overwhelmed, let alone a new director like Xie Qian.

To put it bluntly, it is thanks to Zhang Shisan that the film was finished.

The shot was smashed, he thanked Qian for the blame.

"It doesn't matter!" Xie Qian said, "It's enough to guarantee the quality of the movie."

Has Xie Qian thought about it?

Naturally thought about it.

But the screenwriter is Zhang Shisan, so it is already doomed to overwhelm the host.

That being the case, why not let him be the producer of the film?
Not only is the quality of the film more guaranteed, but so is the box office of the film.

He can also take the opportunity to learn something.

Why not?

Zhang Shisan's director ability is beyond doubt.

Even if he didn't win the best director, his directing ability is definitely the top in the country.

"By the way, next year's Golden Dragon Awards, "Inception" should be a big hit!"

Seeing Zhang Yu nodding in agreement, Xie Qian stopped talking about the topic and talked about the Golden Dragon Award instead.

He feels that Zhang Yu has a great chance of winning the best director with "Inception".

"Who knows?" Zhang Yu shook his head and said.

"Inception" is a commercial film after all, and it's not like there haven't been any good movies this year.

However, "Inception" should be shortlisted for quite a few awards.

Zhang Yu still has this confidence.

As for whether to win an award, it is hard to say.

"The Golden Dragon Award owes you the best director!" Xie Qian said with a smile, "Maybe this time I can get my wish."

Zhang Yu has never won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Director, but he is more trusted by movie fans than those who have won the award.

Owe?

Zhang Yu smiled and shook his head, not continuing the topic.

"what's the topic?"

Xu Sen came over and asked with a smile.

He chatted with Zhang Yu, almost all about movies.

Stress is sometimes motivating.

Xu Sen is not young, but he obviously refuses to accept his age.

He accepted the film, so he naturally knew how much pressure he would face.

He wants to take this pressure one step further.

Xu Sen's ability to stand tall in the film industry is obviously related to this.

Many of the directors who were better than him, and as good as him, have disappeared.

Yes, it is difficult to attract some investment.

But he is still active on the front line.

The times are progressing, and people also need to progress.

Zhang Yu didn't plan to stay on the set for a long time, but before he left, someone came to visit the set again.

"You kid, take it easy, don't interfere with the filming of the crew."

Zhang Yu looked at Wantong and said.

After Wang Lan and Wantong fell in love, nothing changed.

Acting is still hard work and very dedicated.

It doesn't seem to be inflated because of having such a boyfriend as Wantong.

as always.

She is still her, but she works harder.

Try to make yourself better.

Perhaps, falling in love with someone like Wantong will inevitably be stressful.

She may have a very clear understanding.

She knew that to keep this love, she couldn't rely on the man's attachment to her.

People are more attractive only when they become better.

Perhaps, this is why Wantong likes her.

"Don't worry, when did I interfere with the crew's filming?" Wantong said with a curled lip, "Besides, isn't she not doing much filming during this time?"

"Remind you!" Zhang Yu said, "Who told you to fall in love with both IQ and EQ?"

"Fuck off!"

Wantong said angrily.

Zhang Yu left and returned to Zhonghai.

As for when Wantong will leave, it is unknown.

Zhang Yu didn't bother to pay attention!
"father!"

When Zhang Yu came home, the child suddenly came staggering, shouting "Dad"!
The sound of "Dad" was much clearer than before.

Zhang Yu glanced at Yang Ruoxue, then quickly picked up the child.

It was definitely a surprise.

The one-year-old child has just learned to walk, and the walk is not very stable.

However, the road was walked late, but the words were spoken early.

"Daddy" can actually be called at seven or eight months old.

It's just not anymore.

There was a period of time in between.

It was "Mom" who kept calling, and it became more and more clear.

"Didn't you stay on the set for a few more days?" Yang Ruoxue asked.

She knew very well that Zhang Yu attached great importance to "Transformers 2".

Also know the importance of that movie.

"Director Xu is very reliable." Zhang Yu said, "Besides, I miss our daughter too."

"Does Tongtong miss Dad?"

Zhang Yu said, looking at the child in his arms, and asked with a smile.

"father!"

Children are still young, how can they understand.

Just yelled "Dad!"

"what?"

Zhang Yu frowned and said, "Tongtong's forehead?"

"I fell!" Yang Ruoxue said.

Zhang Yu looked at some bruises on his forehead, and felt distressed.

However, the child has just learned to walk, so there are no bumps and bumps.

Blame Yang Ruoxue?

Or blame the aunt with the child?
Apart from feeling sorry for the child, Zhang Yu didn't blame anyone.

To blame, maybe some blame yourself!

He spends less time with the children.

"Is Tongtong still in pain?" Zhang Yu looked at the child and asked.

He knew that the child didn't understand, but he still couldn't help asking.

"mom!"

Seeing Yang Ruoxue, the child stretched out his hands, wanting her to hug her.

"It's okay, it's good to have a break." Yang Ruoxue took the children and said, "Some children are not bad. Some children are not walking steadily, but they want to run. Don't talk about the forehead, there is no hair on the knees." Better off."

Yang Ruoxue obviously felt sorry for the child's injury, and seemed much calmer.

"I heard from my mother that you were like that when you were a child." Yang Ruoxue continued, "You said you wanted to walk before you could crawl well. After you learned to walk, you couldn't walk very steadily, but you started to run. You didn't stop at all, your head, On the feet, there are bruises and bruises, and I haven't felt better at all."

Zhang Yu smiled awkwardly.

Is he like that?

Of course he couldn't remember, but he didn't hear his parents mention it.

"Fortunately, Tongtong is not like you in this aspect. Mom said that bringing you was more tiring than other people bringing twins." Yang Ruoxue continued, "Tongtong may not be a quiet little beauty, but she will not be too noisy."

"When did Mom tell you this?" Zhang Yu asked casually with an embarrassed smile.

"You don't think it's been a long time since you called back." Yang Ruoxue said, "Mom, they miss Tongtong, and they often video with me. I will call back occasionally."

"It's been a long time since I checked."

Zhang Yu sighed, feeling somewhat remorseful.

Get busy and ignore your parents.

"Let's take Tongtong back to celebrate the New Year this year!" Yang Ruoxue said.

"Aren't you going to the Spring Festival Gala?" Zhang Yu said, "Go back and stay for a few more days during the Spring Festival! On New Year's Eve, take Tongtong to Beijing."

"it is good!"

Yang Ruoxue froze for a moment, then nodded.

She really forgot about going to the Spring Festival Gala.

Can Yang Ruoxue go to the Spring Festival Gala?
Zhang Yu didn't think about it, and neither did Yang Ruoxue.

With Yang Ruoxue's popularity and the "comeback" gimmick, as long as she reveals her wish to the Spring Festival Gala program team, it may be very easy.

When Yang Ruoxue went to the Spring Festival Gala, she still attracted many people to stay in front of the TV.

The box office of "Changjin Lake" went towards the box office that Zhang Shisan expected.

At this time, "Die Hard" written by Zhang Shisan, directed by Ding Zhi, and starring Cheng Jie is scheduled for Christmas and New Year's Day.

It's been advertised now.

The film is already very different from the original.

The background is also placed in Xiangjiang.

As for why the mainland is not spared, it is obviously a bit disharmonious.

Of course, the storyline has also changed.

After all, the first "Die Hard" was a movie in the late 80s.

The times are somewhat inconsistent.

Originally, Zhang Yu wanted to directly remake the fourth part.

The fourth part involves hacking technology, etc., which is obviously more in line with the atmosphere of today's times.

However, the imagination gave up again.

Squeeze the wool, why don't you do it a few more times?
