During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 451 Wei Jin was blocked again
At the end of the first weekend of August, Fiber Optic's "The Four" was taken off the screen and the final box office revenue was reported to be 2.52 million.

Many people in the circle joked that this was really stepping on the threshold of Wei and Jin Dynasty predictions.

After entering the weekend, the performance of "The Storm" improved again, with the box office reaching 2.83 million.

Zhou Gongzi's film "The Whisperer" earned 6880 million in box office in the first three days of its weekend.

Although the results are pretty good, the online reputation is just average.

Compared to the Impression Network score of 8.2 for "The Whistleblower", "The Whistleblower" scored less than 7 points, and the audience reviews were almost mixed.

"The plot has no climax, the spy movie has turned into a romance movie, what a mess."

“There is no sense of suspense and tension. It is much worse than The Sound of Wind. The Hong Kong editor is really unreliable.”

"The reason why Mr. Liang is blind is too far-fetched. Can't you just close your eyes?"

"It's a good romance movie, the actors' acting is great"

Looking at the comments online, Wei Jin shook his head and sighed. Zhou Xun’s acting skills are great, but his level of selecting scripts is really not that good.

Of course, maybe with this sister's carefree personality, she wouldn't care at all?

Just as Wei Jin expected, the film's review process for Gravity was green-lighted, and it obtained a permit for public screening in just one week.

At the same time, Guo Fan also prepared the storyboard script for the new script. Compared with Lu Yang's laziness, his efficiency was much higher.

In the office, Wei Jin sat in the boss's chair with a majestic look, reading the documents carefully.

It can be seen that Guo Fan put a lot of effort into understanding the script. The dozens of pages of storyboards are the best proof of this. He also had a lot of notes densely packed on the original script that was given to him.

"Not bad, you have basically grasped the key points in soft science fiction. Once this drama is finished, you can start working on hard-core science fiction."

Wei Jin's words were undoubtedly a compliment, and a smile appeared on Guo Fan's slightly serious face. These few nights were not spent in vain.

But before Guo Fan could open his mouth, Wei Jin asked first.

"The Butterfly Effect is the most classic material in soft science fiction. The characters are very important. The last casting was acceptable. What about this time? What do you think?"

“Well, I do have some ideas.”

Wei Jin was waiting for what to say next, but Guo Fan's next sentence almost made him spit out something.

"I think Gao Yuanyuan is quite suitable for the female lead."

"??Can you say that again?"

"Boss Wei, listen to my analysis. As a science fiction romance film, her performance in Passengers is very good. She has natural talent. In addition, the heroine is intelligent, beautiful, and pure. Aren't these all about her?"

Wei Jin had to admit that Guo Fan had a sharp eye. Da Meiyuan was indeed a good match, but it was a pity that she was pregnant. However, this reason was not convenient to say out loud.

After a moment's hesitation, Wei Jin decided to try to convince him from other perspectives.

"Guo Fan, you think too simply. Have you ever thought about the status of the star? The budget of this play will definitely not exceed 30 million."

"Boss Wei, we can learn from Hollywood and convert the film remuneration into investment. How about that? You can't be so reluctant to give her a share, right?"

My goodness, if Wei Jin hadn’t seen Guo Fan standing right in front of him, he would have almost thought that it was Lu Yang who spoke.

Seeing that Wei Jin was silent, Guo Fan continued to persuade him, "Don't worry, President Wei. During the filming, I will pay attention to all her scenes. Kissing scenes and so on will be handled in a reasonable way."

"This isn't about the kiss scene."

Wei Jin still shook his head. In fact, after the script was translated into Chinese, there were almost no passionate scenes, so there was no problem with scale.

"What's the problem?"

"Well she has had similar works before, so she probably won't be interested."

"Boss Wei, I believe that if you personally come, there will be no problem."

"."

Wei Jin always felt that Guo Fan seemed to be possessed by Lu Yang today, and his serious personality collapsed a little.

"Okay, let's not discuss this issue anymore. Consider other people. Also, submit the script for review first, and then we can start the budget and preparatory work."

Wei Jin didn't intend to continue to argue with him and decisively ended the topic. The latter could only leave in embarrassment.

Looking up at the clock on the wall, Wei Jin packed up and was about to leave the company when he received a WeChat message.

"Brother, I will arrive in Beijing tonight and wait for you at Xishan Villa, mua"

Looking at the WeChat nickname, Wei Jin smiled and then went to the Fiber Optic's celebration party.

On the other side, after leaving Wei Jin's office, Guo Fan first came to the film production department to hand over the budget and preparatory matters, and then came to Shanhe Shuimo.

Lu Yang was usually not very focused when editing, but when he saw Guo Fan from a distance, he instantly became excited.

"How is it? Did Senior Brother agree?"

"No, President Wei refused very straightforwardly."

Lu Yang reached out and stroked his slightly bearded chin, looking puzzled. "That doesn't make sense. My words are impeccable. Could it be that you didn't say it?"

"Impossible, my undergraduate degree is in law, and I am best at memorizing."

Lu Yang frowned, "Could it be that the schedule is not suitable? But I haven't heard of Gao Yuanyuan's next plan?"

"Forget it, I'll think of other options."

"Hey, you're giving up already? Be patient. I tell you, Senior Brother is a tough guy. If you fight a protracted war with him and it doesn't work, just contact Gao Yuanyuan directly. I have her phone number."

"."

Guo Fan gave Lu Yang a caring look, and he understood a little bit of the complexity in Wei Jin's eyes just now in the office.
The celebration banquet for "The Four" was lackluster, as the movie only grossed 2.52 million yuan in total.

According to the profit-sharing ratio, the producer can get no more than 1 million, which is barely enough to recover the cost. The only profit is from overseas copyrights and in-film advertising.

All in all, the overall profit is probably not as good as that of "Painted Wall". However, for Fiber Optic, this is a new box office record, and the stock price has risen a lot, which is indeed worth celebrating.

Therefore, the scale of today's celebration banquet is not small. Not only are there many companies and artists in the industry who came to show their support, but even the crew rushed back from Hengdian.

Bai Bin, Wan Qian, and Wang Zixuan, in the crew of "The Four 2", there were three women with whom he had an intimate relationship. Wei Jin himself felt it was a bit outrageous.

However, Wang Changtian looked cheerful and talked about the new project with Wei Jin.

"Brother Wei, when does Cao Baoping plan to start filming?"

Although the share of optical fiber in "Dear" is not large, Lao Wang firmly believes that there will be meat to eat by following Wei Jin, so he is also very concerned about the project.
"The casting is almost done, it should be soon."

"Well, that's good. I hope it can do well at the box office. Speaking of which, no movie produced by Fiber Optic has ever grossed more than 3 million yuan. What do you think, brother? Does Detective Dee have a chance?"

"Maybe there is a chance. The current film market is developing faster and faster, and there will be more and more high-grossing films in the future."

"Well, that's true. The market is getting better and better. I'm afraid that even if I cheat, I can still get a lot of box office revenue. Haha."

It was really hard for Wei Jin to respond to this. After all, bad movies can ruin one's image. If a filmmaker is labeled as such, it would be difficult to clear his name.

This is also the reason why Shanhe Media is determined not to make bad movies, no matter how good the box office is!
During the dinner, many celebrities and companies in the industry came to toast. Although Da Meiyuan was already pregnant, Wei Jin refused to drink if possible and basically just drank drinks and water.

This also resulted in Wei Jin being unable to resist going to the toilet after a while.

Just as he was released, he was blocked by Bai Bin again.

Looking at Xiaobai in a red V-neck dress, Wei Jin couldn't help but sigh.

"Xiaobai, it's not safe here"

"Boss, don't worry, I'll keep my voice down later."

Bai Bin crouched in front of Wei Jin and swiftly untied him as he spoke.

God have mercy on her. It has been four months since she had meat in the office last time in April. Plus, the crew has a heavy filming schedule and they have to rush back to Hengdian at night. How could she miss the opportunity now?

The seductive red lips are slightly parted.

A minute later, Wei Jin turned Xiaobai, who was still a little limp, around, pinched her chin, and moved closer.

Soon, there was no trace of this game of cards.
After the celebration banquet, Wei Jin hurried to the Xishan Villa.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Liu Shishi, who had already bathed and changed her clothes and was exuding fragrance, standing in front of him.

She looked like a young wife waiting for her lover to come home.

"Brother, you are back"

Touching the girl's head affectionately, a smile appeared on Wei Jin's face.

"Well, you've been waiting for a long time, right? Have you eaten yet?"

While talking, Wei Jin led the little girl towards the house. August in the capital was so hot that his back was almost wet in just a short while.

"Well, I've eaten. If you want me to wait for you, I'm willing to wait for as long as it takes."

The double entendre words from the little girl made Wei Jin's heart tremble. He hugged her in his arms and lowered his head to take a deep sniff of her black hair. The jasmine-scented shower gel mixed with the unique body fragrance of a woman made him a little intoxicated.

Holding the little girl in his arms, Wei Jin walked all the way to the sofa, where he held her on his lap and let her sit. He couldn't help but caress her snow-white and slender legs with his hands.

"Shishi, you should still be promoting Xuan-Yuan Sword, why are you here in Beijing? Does President Cai agree?"

When talking about this, Liu Shishi frowned slightly, with a bit of disgust on her face.

"Oh, don't mention it, brother. Sister K is really unreliable in doing things."

Listening to Liu Shishi's account of the whole story, Wei Jin exclaimed, "Wow!"

"No wonder I didn't see Tang Yan in the promotion of "Xuan-Yuan Sword". It turns out that Mr. Cai is fooling people again?"

"That's right. I had a lot of scenes during the filming, but now they've been edited out and I can't even catch up with Rouba's scenes. Tangtang has ignored me now, and there's a lot of noise online. I get asked this question wherever I go to promote it, so I just decided not to do it anymore."

Wei Jin shook his head. Even though Tang Yan no longer had any roles in "Chinese Paladin III", she was still Orange Sky's leading actress after all. It would have been fine if she had played a supporting role to Liu Shishi, but now she couldn't even catch up with Rouba's role. It would be strange if she didn't become popular.

To be honest, the fact was not exposed until Tang Yan left Orange Sky and lost her backing. It was not until the studio was established that she acknowledged the fact in response to repeated inquiries from reporters.

If it were Yang Mi, he would probably start mocking him the first time.

However, seeing that the little girl looked a little annoyed, Wei Jin could only say words of comfort.

"Okay, Shishi, don't think too much. It's not your fault. Just find a chance to explain it to her later."

"Well, that's all it can do."

"Then what are your plans next?"

"Well, I want to take a break for a while and start working after the storm has passed. I can also spend more time with you during this time."

Looking at the girl's slightly shy appearance, Wei Jin's index finger moved and his hands climbed upwards unconsciously.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, an inopportune voice rang out.

"Goo~~~~"

The air was quiet for a moment. Wei Jin looked at the place where the sound came from - Liu Shishi's lower abdomen, and asked in confusion: "Shishi, didn't you eat?"

"I ate a little on the plane, but I didn't expect to be so hungry so quickly."

"How can you be full with airplane food? Forget it, I'll make you a midnight snack."

"Okay, okay, brother, what do you want to eat?"

"Well, I'm down there."

"0.0"
