China Entertainment: Return to 2007

Chapter 82: Explosive Profits and Meeting Again

【Excuse me!DreamWorks' masterpiece "Kung Fu Panda" grossed US$6 million at the North American box office in its first week!

It beats many blockbusters such as "Don't Mess with the Zohan", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Sex and the City".
Winning the North American box office championship this week! 】

[A few days ago, the animated movie "Kung Fu Panda" produced by DreamWorks will officially land in China tomorrow, June 6.

The film is dubbed by famous stars such as Cheng Long and Zhou Jielun.
From a unique oriental perspective, it shows the growth story of Kung Fu Panda Po...]

[The wolf is coming?

Previously there were Iron Man and Narnia 2, which grossed an astonishing box office of 1 million and 8 million respectively.

Now Kung Fu Panda is coming!

On July 7nd, the blockbuster blockbuster Superman Hancock will be released soon!

The summer season has almost become the back garden of Hollywood! 】

[Is it difficult to support a lonely tree? After the box office hit 5 million in its first week, the daily box office of "Bottom Girl" has continued to decline. As of today, it has only 500 million left.
Experts say that as "Kung Fu Panda" and "Hancock" are released one after another, the box office of "Bottom Girl" may be cut in half...]

What was supposed to come finally came,
Since its release on June 6, "Bottom Girl" has continuously taken in 9 million box office. It is unstoppable and it is only a matter of time before it exceeds 7261 million.

Based on this momentum, its box office is likely to exceed 1 million, or even higher.
But that day, as "Kung Fu Panda" hit theaters in China with great popularity and became the top box office hit in North America, the news changed.

"Wow, "Kung Fu Panda" is so cool. There are also superstars such as Cheng Long and Zhou Jielun joining in the dubbing. It will definitely be fun to watch!"

"I like giant pandas the most. Po looks so cute. I must go to the cinema to watch it tomorrow!"

"I just finished my high school entrance exam and I was bored. I didn't expect to see a movie as good as "Kung Fu Panda". No, I have to call my little sisters and go to the cinema to have a laugh together."

"When it comes to animated movies, they have to be made by Hollywood and young people. Unlike us, we just make rubbish movies that are eye-catching for young people.
Kung Fu Panda happened to be released, so I went to wash my eyes. "

"You're right, Daxia Animation is 30 years behind the entire era. It's the 21st century and there is no progress at all.

In addition to a few excellent works such as Journey to the West and Lotus Lantern,

Where can I find one that I can watch? "

"It's really sad. The giant panda originally belongs to Daxia, but Hollywood rushed to make it into an animation and then went to Daxia to make money.

I just want to ask, when will Daxia Animation go to Hollywood to make money? "

"How many dishes do the brothers upstairs have? Are you drunk like this?
You can't take two cephalosporins. "

"Haha, I guess waiting until this day is almost as difficult as waiting for the national football team to enter the World Cup."

"Daxia Animation is dead, if something happens, it will burn paper.

Not to mention big movies, now even on TV, apart from Pleasant Goat, Big Big Wolf and Big Bear, which can barely be watched, where are there any outstanding domestic animations?

They are all Japanese comics! "

"Hey, it's true. It's not that we don't want to be patriotic, but we really can't find anyone to be patriotic to!"

"The kids are clamoring to watch animation, but there is no other choice. The only option is "Kung Fu Panda". I can't watch it unless I watch it..."

Chengdu, Yokeli Animation Studio.

Yang Yu couldn't help but frown as he looked at the messages about the Zhanshiguo comic in front of him.

"Brother Yang, our studio has hired more than 50 people. When can we officially start work?"

Almost two months have passed since Xu Ge told Yang Yu to expand his troops.

In the past two months, Yang Yu has personally taken action to recruit a group of young animation talents from all over the country.

Although these talents are young and have little experience,

But everyone still has dreams, and they all hope to make a Chinese comic that belongs to Daxia people.

"Don't worry, the big boss is coming soon, so cheer up and make sure to give him a good impression."

That's right, Xu Ge is going to come to the Yokeli Studio in person to inspect.

It happened that the crew came to Chengdu for a road show, and after being urged several times by Yang Yu, Xu Ge immediately decided to visit the studio in person.

After half an hour,

Xu Ge came to the studio alone,
Yang Yu led everyone in a warm welcome.

After some understanding, I found that the studio already had the basic ability to produce animation.

Xu Ge called Yang Yu, summoned the backbone of the studio, and formally handed over the task.

"Brother Yu, read the script first." Xu Ge took out a thin script from his bag and handed it to Yang Yu.

Yang Yu took the script and opened the top page, only to see five weird and abnormal cartoon characters coming into view.

These are five yellow capsule-shaped creatures,
It looks a bit like a banana, but it's not.

They wear blue suspenders, glasses, and even have a strange presence of one eye.

Although these five gadgets were weird, Yang Yu somehow became more and more pleased with them.
At the end, he even loved them from the bottom of his heart and wanted to reach out and touch them.

There are names underneath these five gadgets,

They are Stuart, Kevin, Bob, Mel and Carl.

That's right, the script Xu Ge came up with was none other than "Despicable Me," which sold $5.4 million at the box office two years later.

This animated movie has a terrifying ability to attract money. This can be seen from the fact that it started shooting five movies in a row and finally made a box office of 270 billion.

Gru, Agnes, Margot, Edith?

Yang Yu opened the back, and the image settings of the four protagonists appeared one by one.
He was surprised to find that this was a Western-style animation.

What surprised him even more was that an anime with such specific images and character settings was just a short film.

The content of the story is very simple. The thief Gru took his minions to steal the moon and gave it to his three adopted daughters as birthday gifts.

"How is it? Are you sure?" Xu Ge smiled.

"This is just a 5-minute short film, and Director Xu provided such a specific story concept and animation image.

If I'm still not sure, I might as well go back to school and start with sketching. "Yang Yu sighed.

"Okay, I'll give you 100 million, and I'll see the finished product within a month!" Xu Ge said with a smile.

"Guaranteed to complete the task!" Yang Yu said confidently.

"Very good. Also, after you finish it, make an English version. It will be of great use to me."

"understand!"

Of course, the plot of "Despicable Me" is not that simple, but Xu Ge doesn't really want Yang Yu to make a big animation movie.

Not to mention whether the studio can do a good job with the current technical funds,
Even if it could be done well, without a Hollywood background, it would never be a global hit.

Xu Ge ordered Yang Yu to make the "Despicable Me" short film first.
The reason is actually very simple. It is just to seize the copyright and use it as bait to seduce the old turtle of Universal.

If this short film does well, Xu Ge is planning to make another short film to challenge Disney.

He will never give up until Hollywood is stripped of its skin.

Again, the pattern needs to be opened up.

It's so embarrassing to be so reborn and just stare at your own house.

"Brother Yu, how did you go about the things you promised us in Xiaoli?" Xu Ge asked, knocking on the table.

"I asked again yesterday, and it's been done. I guarantee it will be released as scheduled tomorrow." Yang Yu replied seriously.

"Very good," Xu Ge nodded with satisfaction. He stood up and smiled at everyone: "Let's get off work early today. I'll treat you to a dinner together."

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!" Everyone thanked in unison.

.......................................

The next day, on the morning of June 6, "Kung Fu Panda" held a grand premiere in the Imperial Capital.

Cheng Long, Zhou Jielun... and other superstars were invited to come to support the event.

Thanks to the strength of the producer and the amazing box office results in North America, "Kung Fu Panda"'s first-day film schedule reached an astonishing 31%.

For "Bottom Hot Girl," it dropped from 22% to 19%.

Suddenly, the popularity of "Kung Fu Panda" has greatly increased!
The distributor of "Kung Fu Panda" is China Film Group Corporation, and as we all know, when it comes to imported films, China Film Group Corporation gets high percentages.

Therefore, China Film Group worked hard to promote it, both online and offline, full of information about "Kung Fu Panda".

"Kung Fu Panda" is of high quality, and DreamWorks very cleverly used Po as the protagonist with Chinese characteristics.
In conjunction with the historic moment of the Olympic Games,
All the favorable factors converged, and in the end, we got an answer that satisfied everyone.

[Excuse the nickname, "Kung Fu Panda" grossed 1208 million at the box office on its first day!
Defeated "Bottom Hot Girl" in one fell swoop and won the championship of the day! 】

["Bottom Hot Girls" defeated Waterloo?It is reported that with the release of Kung Fu Panda yesterday, its [-]-day reign as champion was officially handed over.
As of today, the daily box office of the bottom hottie has dropped to 435 million. 】

["Kung Fu Panda" has received critical acclaim. The Douban score was released today. Tens of thousands of people gave it a super high score of 8.6! 】

["Kung Fu Panda" is hugely popular and may become the first animation masterpiece in China with a box office of over [-] million! 】

[The rating of "Bottom Girl" continues to be low, falling from 8.5 at the beginning to 8.0. 】

[Experts have lowered the box office forecast of "The Last Hot Girl" and estimate that its box office end point will be around 1.1 million. 】

"Xu Ge, don't pay attention to these comments. They are all jealous of you. "Bottom Hot Girl" has a box office of over [-] million, which is already very good. There is no need to be angry with these people."

In the hotel, I saw Xu Ge staring at the computer motionless and not speaking for a long time.
Ni Ni couldn't help but step forward to comfort him carefully.

After a moment of silence, Xu Ge shook his head and couldn't help laughing at himself: "Haha, originally I thought I was open-minded and wouldn't care about what others said.

I didn’t expect it to be easier said than done.
After all, I still fell into the cliché. "

The media always praises the high and disdains the low. Some time ago, "Deep Sea" became popular, and "Bottom Girl" became a big hit. They were all praising Xu Ge and disparaging Xu Ke.
And now "Kung Fu Panda" is a big hit, suppressing the momentum of "Bottom Girl".

Of course they would adjust their guns and stamp on Xu Ge.

"Xu Ge, you are already great. A 22-year-old billionaire director. Who in the entire Blue Star can achieve this level of success?"

Ni Ni praised sincerely.

"Okay, I'm not a child, I understand the truth." Xu Ge smiled, he stretched out his hand to scratch Ni Ni's nose, and said with a smile: "Er Ni, do you believe that I can turn things around? Put "The Bottom" "Spice Girls"'s tired box office will be revived again?"

"Believe it, of course I believe it." Ni Ni hugged Xu Ge, kissed his cheek, and said with a chuckle: "Don't put too much pressure on me. It's not shameful to lose to a Hollywood blockbuster. Let's just work hard next time."

Xu Ge: "..."

"No, Erni, what I said is true, I can really turn things around!" Xu Ge said seriously.

"Okay, you can turn things around, okay.

Come on, it's time for dinner, we have a road show tomorrow. "

Xu Ge: "..."

That night, feeling depressed, Xu Ge gave Ni Ni a hard lesson to cheer him up.

Knowing that Xu Ge felt uncomfortable, Ni Ni was extremely gentle and calmed all the grievances in his heart.

...............................

June 6, Imperial China Cinema.

"Lao Meng, have you bought the tickets?"

"I bought, bought, 3 tickets for "Kung Fu Panda" at ten o'clock in the morning."

Since last attending the premiere of "Hot Girl", Lao Meng has come to his senses and actively spends time with his family.

It happened that his daughter was out of school these two days, so Lao Meng called his wife and took her daughter with her.
A family of three watched "Kung Fu Panda" together.

I have to admit that "Kung Fu Panda" was shot quite well.
Not only does the image of the protagonist and supporting characters fit the oriental memory, but even the lines in it have quite an oriental charm.
Especially what Master Oogway said to Po in the play: You worry about gains and losses, you care too much about the past, and you worry too much about the future.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift from heaven.
Cherish today like a gift.

This line is very Taoist, and Lao Meng was deeply touched after listening to it.

He secretly said that the director of this movie is really amazing, and he has almost completely devoured Eastern culture.

My daughter was very young and couldn't understand the deeper meaning of the words, but Abao's honest and silly image made her laugh.
From beginning to end, her eyes never took a step away from the screen, which is enough to show the popularity of "Kung Fu Panda".

"Big or small takes it all, it seems like this "Kung Fu Panda" is going to soar into the sky.

"Bottom Hot Girl" is probably going to be completely suppressed. "

After watching the movie, Lao Meng had already concluded "The Hot Girl at the Bottom" in his mind.

It's not that "Bottom Hot Girls" isn't good enough, it's just that it was born at the wrong time and ran into such a strong opponent as "Kung Fu Panda".

If you miss this week, it will be difficult for the box office of "Bottom Girl" to soar again.
Because soon there are two more blockbuster movies to get addicted to.

One is "Hancock". Will Smith's name does not need any explanation.
The other one is "Red Cliff". Wu Baige is so aggressive that he basically booked the summer championship title.

With these two films behind it, it will not be difficult for "Hot Girl" to successfully break the [-] million mark, but it is basically impossible to achieve another breakthrough.

After returning home and settling down with his wife and daughter, Lao Meng took out his notebook and prepared to write a film review for "Kung Fu Panda".

To be honest, "Kung Fu Panda" impressed Lao Meng, and he was willing to promote it for free.

And when he just opened his laptop, before he could log in to his account,
Suddenly, a piece of news popped up on QQ.

[According to the latest news, "The Last Hot Girl" officially landed in Japan yesterday. At 212 a.m., it was distributed by Japan's Toho Corporation. "The Last Hot Girl" opened simultaneously in [-] theaters throughout the day.
As of today, the box office on the first day is released, which is as high as 2000 million yen! 】

What? "Bottom Hot Girls" landed in Japan?
212 theaters opened, 2000 million yen on the first day?
When Lao Meng saw this news, his first reaction was disbelief.

After all, he is an insider and knows the Japanese market well.

How could a low-budget, non-anime summer-language film from an almost pure newcomer be released simultaneously in more than 200 theaters in Japan?

Moreover, he also received 2 million yen on the first day, which is equivalent to a good result of one million summer dollars.

This is really unscientific!
Isn't it a marketing tool that Xu Ge paid for?
Shaking his head, Lao Meng turned off the news, opened the film review website, and logged in.
At this time, another piece of news popped up.

[On June 6, "Bottom Hot Girl" was released on a large scale in Japan, with the famous Japanese director Shinjoumi as the supporter, causing a small sensation...]

Xinchenghai?
Xu Ge could actually invite him? !
When Lao Meng woke up from his dream, he clicked on it reflexively.

Soon, in the face of pictures and truth, Lao Meng had to believe that all this was true.

Reacting, he immediately realized that "Bottom Hot Girls" might become popular again.

Today's Daxia, although the economy has taken off across the board, national self-confidence is still somewhat lacking.

The moon in foreign countries is rounder than that in our own country,

Foreign movies are better than domestic ones, this is normal.

Once the news of "Bottom Hot Girl" becoming famous in Japan spread,

Even Lao Meng could predict it.

What kind of hero treatment awaits "Bottom Hot Girl".

Sure enough, after Lao Meng finished writing the film review of Kung Fu Panda,
After a while, the entire Internet was filled with the voice of "Bottom Hot Girls" overseas!
[Holy crap, is it true? Was "Bottom Hot Girl" so popular in your childhood? 】

[Of course it’s true. My husband’s cousin’s classmate next door’s aunt’s dog’s owner’s cousin happens to be studying abroad in Tokyo.

She just sent me a picture of her watching The Last Girl in the theater. 】

【Is it really that beautiful?Has it become so popular abroad? 】

[I have been conquered in my childhood, what do you think? 】

【grass!If you say that, then I must go and take a look.

I heard that the heroine is super beautiful, so I’ll go check it out...]

[By the way, Xu Ge is really awesome. The box office of his debut film has exceeded [-] million, and now it is popular abroad.
Maybe I can really win a grand prize next year. 】

[I support "Bottom Hot Girl". This film is really well shot and quite passionate. After watching it, I really wanted to take the college entrance examination all over again! 】

[Recently, "Bottom Hot Girl" was suppressed by "Kung Fu Panda", which made me feel quite depressed. Now that I'm feeling better, I can finally feel proud.

Do you want to go to the second brush?
We also go to win glory for our country! 】

[Start with the second brush! 】

【………】

....................................

"Thank you, thank you, thank you Shinjo-kun. Without your strong support, "Bottom Hot Girl" would never have been discovered so smoothly.
Don't worry, I will definitely give you what I promised you. I will seize the time and when this month is over, I will hand over the complete script with your name as soon as possible.

Okay, okay, see you later. "

Pengcheng, in the lounge room of a China Film Theater, Xu Ge's eyes were full of excitement after hanging up the phone.

"Xu Ge, good news. I just asked the theater manager. Today, [-]% of the tickets for "Bottom Hot Girl" have been sold."

Ni Ni told Xu Ge a piece of good news at the right time.

"Also on the Internet, since news of the popularity of "Bottom Hot Girl" in Japan has spread, public opinion has been swarming in praise of us." Zhang Yi took out his mobile phone and reported another piece of news.

"Haha, okay, Ni Ni, Zhang Yi, let's go out together and greet our cheers!" Xu Ge was high-spirited, waved his hand, and walked out first.

Ni Ni and Zhang Yi followed closely, and the subsequent main creators also came out one after another.

"Shani! Shani! Shani!"

"Tian Ping! Tian Ping!" In the theater, fans cheered excitedly when they saw Ni Ni Zhangyi.

Security guards were in front of everyone to prevent accidents.

"Bottom Girl" has been released for more than ten days, and its die-hard fans have grown rapidly.
Most of the fans present came for Ni Ni and Zhang Yi.

Many people even came from the next city to meet the two after hearing the news.

On that day, Pengcheng Cinema was almost full, and the star power of Ni Ni and Zhang Yi was fully displayed.

The next day, thanks to the news that it would be released in Japan, "Bottom Girl" returned to the public eye.

So of course, the box office of "Bottom Girl" soared, from less than 500 million the previous day to 752 million!
A few days later, the box office of "Bottom Girl" bucked the trend and rose, with 760 million, 780 million, 810 million...

On this day, after half a month of screening,
The box office of "Bottom Girl" officially exceeded [-] million!
As soon as the news came out, the box office rose again, reaching 850 million!
Although it is still far away from the 920 million box office of "Kung Fu Panda" and failed to regain the Japanese crown,

But there is no doubt that in the hearts of everyone, "Bottom Hot Girl" is still glorious despite its defeat.

After the peak, there must be a fall. The next day, the box office of "Bottom Girl" dropped again by 30%, with only 610 million left. It dropped another 50 the next day, and another 80 on the third day...

In the end, it stabilized at around 300 million, and the box office steadily exceeded 1.2 million, and it was difficult to move towards 1.5 million.

On July [-]nd, with the release of "Hancock",

Under the double attack of two major Hollywood blockbusters,

The single-day box office of "Bottom Girl" was squeezed out of the one million mark and is no longer expected to exceed 1.5 million.

And Japan,
Maybe it’s because of Shinjokai’s strong support, or maybe it’s because “Bottom Hot Girls” poked at the soft underbelly of Japanese students,
Half a month after its release,
The box office miraculously exceeded 1.2 million yen,
Experts predict that its final box office will reach 1.8 million yen, or even 2 million yen.
Converted into Xia Yuan, it's nearly ten million.

It became the best performance of a Chinese-language film in Japan in several years.

...............................

"Come on! Cheers!"

"cheers!"

In mid-July, with the blockbuster release of "Red Cliff", "Bottom Girl" had to be withdrawn.

In the end, "Bottom Hot Girl" returned triumphantly with a super high score of 1.3 million.

Coupled with the impressive performance of exceeding 900 million Xia Yuan in Japan,

Xu Ge became famous in one battle and was known throughout the country.

"Congratulations to Director Xu for becoming the youngest billionaire director! Come on, Wang, I'd like to toast you. Thank you for contributing such excellent films to Daxia!"

Wang Zhonglei is extremely enthusiastic, and Huayi is planning to go public.
Although he is not the main investor in Xu Ge's "Bottom Hot Girl", he is still one of the investors.

Huayi has benefited greatly from this.

"The Last Hot Girl" had a box office of 1.3 million, and the producers shared 4500 million, minus the 1000 million investment.
This alone made a huge profit of 3500 million.

Coupled with various domestic and foreign subsequent copyright income,

It can make a profit of at least 5000 million.

Huayi has a 20% share, and the net profit will be tens of millions.
It’s definitely a huge profit!
"Director Xu, come here, let me toast you again. Next time the movie starts shooting, you must contact Huayi. Within 2000 million investment, Wang will have nothing to say!"

It is the nature of capital to pursue profits. Xu Ge has proven his strength, and Wang Zhonglei is naturally attracted to him.

"Okay, when I have an idea, I will contact you as soon as possible." Although he promised, Xu Ge had already excluded Huayi from his next cooperation partner.

In the past, he had no choice but to recruit Huayi. After all, he had no connections in the film industry.

Nowadays, things are different from the past. With the sales of hot girls at the bottom,

There are countless entertainment tycoons who want to cooperate with him.

These days, not only Bona, Galloping Pony, and Enlight Media have hinted that they hope to invest in his next movie,
Even Mr. Han extended an olive branch to him.

I want to invest heavily in him to make a domestic blockbuster!
"Director Xu, I have long admired your name. My name is Huo Siyan. I'm glad to meet you." The celebration was held in the imperial capital. Huo Siyan was one of the female companions specially brought by Wang Zhonglei, along with Ma Shu, Liu Yun…

Xu Ge shook hands with her politely: "Si Yan is the leading actress of Huayi, and I have admired your name for a long time."

"Haha, Director Xu is really good at talking. It's a great honor to be your friend." Huo Siyan winked at Xu Ge and said with a meaningful smile: "I wonder if there is any shortage of actors for Director Xu's next movie? I'm always available. I’m here, I can come to you for a personal audition at any time…”

Tsk tsk tsk, she is indeed a Chinese social butterfly.

"I don't have any ideas at the moment. I will definitely audition with you next time I get the chance." He let go of Huo Siyan's hand and turned a blind eye to the resentment in the other person's eyes. Xu Ge turned around and walked towards Ni Ni, directly smashing the surroundings. The other little stars who are ready to move have delusions in their minds.

Although Xu Ge is not a good person, he is definitely not an animal that can't move when he sees a woman.

Some goods were delivered to his door, but he didn't even bother to ask for them.
What he wants is not only to be pure and pure, but to keep his body as pure as jade.

At least you should keep yourself clean and your belt should not be so loose.

"Xu Ge." Seeing Xu Ge coming over on his own initiative, Ni Ni, who had been standing by her side with a wine glass, immediately greeted him with a smile. She held Xu Ge's arm and looked at the female stars around her provocatively. They looked exactly like each other. A proud little cat who only asserts her sovereignty.

"Haha, don't worry, I won't be kidnapped that easily." Patting Ni Ni's little head, Xu Ge said with a smile: "How is it? Have you experienced the treatment of being a celebrity?"

"Hey, there are a lot of people surrounding you and complimenting you against your will. If this is the treatment of being popular, I hope I don't have it." Ni Ni shook his head and was speechless.

"Er Ni, people have to learn to grow up. Look at Zhang Yi, isn't he just like a fish in water?"

Following Xu Ge's gaze, Ni Ni found Zhang Yi wearing a suit and holding a wine glass, walking around the crowd with ease.
Everyone he meets has a smile on his face, and it is absolutely impossible to fault him. He is a perfect actor-level performance.

"I know, I will work hard." Ni Ni puffed up his cheeks and said helplessly.

"It's okay if you don't learn," Xu Ge patted Ni Ni's white and tender hands and said calmly, "I'm here anyway."

Ni Ni's eyes turned red and he was even more moved: "Xu Ge, you will spoil me like this."

"It's okay, I'll take responsibility for you if you spoil me." Xu Ge said with a smile.

Ni Ni hugged Xu Ge's arm passionately. If it wasn't for the public, she would have really wanted to throw herself into his arms.

The faces of all the female stars who were staring closely at the two of them were quite bad, especially Huo Siyan, whose face turned dark, and she couldn't help but curse Ni Ni in her heart for being a vixen and knowing how to seduce men!

"Luo Jin," Xu Ge held Ni Ni's arm and called to Luo Jin, who was sitting quietly and chatting with Chen Xiao: "Do you have any schedules recently?"

"Yes, Director Xu's play must be scheduled." Luo Jin was overjoyed. Of course he knew what Xu Ge meant.

"Don't be too eager to be happy, it's not my play," Xu Ge pulled Ni Ni and sat across from Luo Jin, smiling: "Have you heard of "Step by Step"? I'm cooperating with Sugar Man, and the male lead is Si Ah. I haven’t decided yet, but if you are willing, come to Jinling to sign a contract at the end of the month.”

"I do, thank you Director Xu." Luo Jin knew that this opportunity was rare. It was Yang Mi and Hu Ge who became popular in "Chen Qianqian". He didn't get much glory. Now that Xu Ge personally invited him to play the leading role in a big production, how could he possibly reject?

"Also Chen Xiao, after returning home, go to Mianjiang to read the original work of "Step by Step" and think more about the character of Eighth Age. The show should be launched in early August. Take advantage of the opportunity. This show has a [-]% chance of becoming a hit. "

"Thank you, Director Xu. Chen Xiao understands." Chen Xiao nodded honestly.

"Xu Ge, how come Teacher Park didn't seem to see you?" Sitting quietly next to Xu Ge, Ni Ni looked around and suddenly couldn't help but wonder: "China Television is one of the three major investors of "Bottom Hot Girl", this celebration party Why didn't he come?"

"Something happened at Teacher Park's company, so I can't come."

Picking up the glass and taking a sip of red wine, Xu Ge glanced at the people at the cocktail party, Xu Ge sighed: "Life is unpredictable. Today you are in great glory, with a crowd of guests, but tomorrow you may be in a state of desolation, with no one paying attention."

"Xu Ge, why are you so pessimistic all of a sudden?" Ni Ni looked at Xu Ge in confusion.

"It's nothing, it's just something I feel. Erni, come here, let me offer you a toast. I wish you will always maintain a pure heart and not be contaminated by the mundane atmosphere in this rolling world of mortals."

"Xu Ge, you are drunk."

"Haha, it's better to be drunk..."

...............................

Not long after the "Bottom Hot Girl" celebration party was held, Xu Ge and Ni Ni hadn't returned to Jinling yet.

A shocking news came from Nanguang.

Pu Shulin fled to Chou Country...

"Xu Ge, this is terrible. Director Jiang and the members of the board of directors of Meiya sued Director Park for misappropriating 5000 million of Nanguang's funds. The security sent people to arrest him. Director Park was forced to flee far away from Chou Country.

Now that both China Television and Meiya are under control, Director Park is completely finished. "

When Xu Ge returned to Jinling, Bai Ke and others informed him of the situation immediately.

Xu Ge listened calmly and reassured: "We have no affiliation with China Television. These things will not implicate us. You can do your work with peace of mind."

After a pause, Xu Ge asked: "Puti, has Liu Zhigang left?"

"Puti hasn't shown up for a long time. He should have left early. Liu Zhigang didn't leave, he has already gone in." Bai Ke said carefully.

"Okay, I understand, don't worry about this, I will take care of it myself."

After appeasing several people in Bai Ke, Xu Ge fell into deep thought.

Just like in the original time and space, Pu Shulin’s family finally left Chou Country.

This is complicated to say.
But in fact, the essence is very simple. It can be clearly explained in one sentence by Mr. Zhao: How can...

Xu Ge has little involvement with Pu Shulin, and he has not actually touched the core interests of Jiang Hao Group.
According to common sense, Pu Shulin has no chance of turning over.
So the best way for Xu Ge to deal with it at the moment is to just leave it alone and let Jiang Hao embezzle Meiya and China Television.

Even if Xu Ge had a dark mind, it would not be difficult to take advantage of the situation and squander the share of "Bottom Hot Girl" given to China Television, and at the same time raise a hoe to vigorously dig into China Television's foundation.

It's just that Xu Ge wasn't so shameless when he first came. After all, Pu Shulin and his son helped him get started, so he couldn't do anything like this to add insult to injury.

Secondly, Xu Ge knew that Pu Shulin was not as weak as others thought.

No one could have imagined that Pu Shulin, who now looks like a lost dog, would return as a king two years later.

With extraordinary means,
Not only did he successfully get back his own Nanguang China Television, he also brought down the core of Jiang Hao Group in one fell swoop.

He once again became one of the big names in Daxia’s entertainment industry.

It’s just that after two years of wasted time, China Television has missed too much. Even if it finally tied up Ding Zhen, it was still not in the first place.

But for Xu Ge, this has only advantages and no disadvantages.

China Television, which is too powerful, is not a good partner.

On the contrary, Pu Shulin, who is now severely weakened,
But he is full of treasures and is of great benefit to Xu Ge's career.

Especially the only two life-saving straws left in Pu Shulin's hands.
It is very important to Xu Ge's future plans.

If he doesn't cherish this opportunity, Xu Ge will have trouble sleeping.

After making a cup of tea, he picked up the teacup and took a slow sip. Smelling the refreshing fragrance, Xu Ge calmed down instantly.

Although he had already made up his mind to burn Pu Shulin's cold stove,

But there are too many things going on in China right now, including Mianjiang, film and television studios, and the next movie.
There are too many important things waiting for him to decide.

"It seems that we need to seize the time to collect the box office share of "The Hottest Girl". If we don't have money, we can't do anything..."

..............................

At the end of July, under Xu Ge's repeated urging, the share of "Bottom Hot Girl" was finally announced.

As expected, the final total was 4500 million.
Subtracting China Vision Huayi’s 40% share, Xu Ge successfully recorded 2500 million.

After receiving 2500 million, Xu Ge first paid off the 2200 million loan.

Then all the remaining 300 million will be awarded to the main creators,
In this way, except for the 2 million profit from "Wanwan 1000", Xu Ge's pockets are empty again.

But soon, through Huayi's relationship, the overseas copyright of "Bottom Hot Girl", mainly in Southeast Asia, sold another 800 million.
Through China Film,

The rights to the TV station were sold for another 600 million yuan.
through potatoes,

The online copyright was sold for another 500 million yuan,
In addition, all the buyouts from Xiaoli are divided into 300 million yuan.
"Bottom Girl" once again made a profit of 2200 million,
Xu Ge got more than 1300 million yuan, which can be said to be a huge profit.

And that's not all. As time goes by, the copyright of "Bottom Hot Girl" will also generate some profits.
Although there may only be a few hundred thousand left every year, the little money adds up to a huge amount of income.

If you are lucky enough to sell the remake rights, it will be another good harvest.

In other words, it is a live-action movie, otherwise the peripheral income will definitely be huge.

This is the fundamental reason why movies have always been superior to TV series.

It has so many ways to make money that it has completely destroyed TV series.

Thus,
Xu Ge still has 2300 million on hand.

With a wave of his hand, he distributed 500 million to Mianjiang, filling the gap of thousands of poor writers who were waiting for help.

Immediately afterwards, there is "Bu Bu Jing Xin". The total investment in this drama is about 2500 million.

Xu Ge invested 750% and got another [-] million.

The next movie is about to be launched. Xu Ge expects to invest around 2 million.

In addition to giving up some shares to attract helpers,
Xu Ge must come up with the remaining [-]% of the funds.

in addition,

In September, Xu Ge plans to launch another TV series, and his company is also a money-burning studio.
In other words, his little money is not enough.

As a last resort, Xu Ge took out another loan of 2000 million, and finally managed to fill the hole.

"Hey, I've been busy for more than half a year, but I didn't expect that I would have to go into debt for the New Year.
What a crime! "

.......................................

Crack, crack, crack! ! !

"Director Xu, I heard that you wrote the screenplay for "Bu Bu Jing Xin" and also invested in it. Why don't you serve as the director yourself?"

"Because Mr. Cai, the sugar man, is very sincere, and Director Li is a senior expert in the field of TV dramas, I believe he can produce the best "Step by Step"."

"Director Xu, "Bottom Hot Girl" has been released for almost a month. When will your next movie be released?"

"Journalist friend, today is the opening ceremony of "Bu Bu Jing Xin". Let's just talk about Bu Bu Jing Xin and nothing else."

"Director Xu, Director Xu, there is news that the male protagonist Luo Jin has joined Xu Ge Film and Television. Is this true?"

"Yes, Luo Jin has joined my company, and we are a family now."

"..."

Early August, Hengdian,
On this day, "Bu Bu Jing Xin" was officially launched.

The cast of this show is not strong, and can even be called shabby.

The heroine Liu Shishi is just a newcomer with little reputation.

Luo Jin, the first male lead, has not officially appeared on the show yet, and his reputation is not satisfactory.

Not to mention Chen Xiao, he is a true pure vegetarian in the field of TV dramas.

The remaining Yuan Hong, Lin Gengxin, Liu Xinyou and others are even more difficult to describe.

Only the old drama star Liu Songren can barely hold the stage.

Therefore, when Xu Ge personally came to support the crew, he suddenly became the focus and was besieged by all reporters.

'Hmph, wasn't it just a matter of luck that I made a movie with a box office of over [-] million?Do you need to be so proud? '

Standing behind Xu Ge, Master Liu kept complaining in his heart.

She is a vindictive person. She has not forgotten the last time Xu Ge kissed her.

If it weren't for the large crowd and Cai Yinong's repeated warnings,
Maybe she could slap Xu Ge again in public.

After working hard all morning, I finally completed the process.
Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go back to the hotel to have a good rest.

"Master, let's go. Director Xu finally came here to have a meal with me." Cai Yinong said with a smile.

Master Liu: "..."

When the boss spoke, Master Liu had to listen.

Fortunately, she wasn't going to have the lunch alone.
The entire "Step by Step" crew and creators followed along.

"Mr. Cai, happy cooperation."

"Director Li, come here, let me toast you. I'll leave all "Step by Step Jingxin" to you."

"Director Lin, Luo Jin and Chen Xiao are still inexperienced. If you have any questions, please ask me more and be more considerate."

"Luo Jin, Chen Xiao, we should learn more from Director Li and Director Lin, and make a good film of "Step by Step"."

When they got to the table, Xu Ge had no time to deal with Liu Shishi, who was full of resentment.

He toasted cup after cup to several core sugar people.

Speaking of the team behind Sugar Man, they really have a strong lineup.

Chief Director Li Guoli is the major shareholder of Sugar Man. He is a high-level executive of Hong Kong TV station and has been an old colleague of Cai Yinong for more than ten years.
The two opened Sugar Man together.

"Book of Swordsman", "Sword and Fairy", "Flying Immortals", "Bubu Jingxin"... one after another high-quality dramas are produced by him,

It can be called the sugar man's magic needle.

Next is the assistant director Lin Yufen, who has worked on "Sword of Immortal III", "Step by Step", "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", and "Three Lives Three Worlds".
In terms of later influence, it was even higher than that of Li Guoli.

There are also assistant director Liang Shengquan and stylist Song Xiaotao, who have also achieved success after leaving Sugar Man.

Xu Ge dreams of poaching the sweetheart.
