During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 526: Suicide for Love? The Second Child is Born
As expected, "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" reached 13 billion, becoming the third Chinese-language film to reach a box office of over 13 billion.

At this point, it is less than 13.86 million away from the 8000 billion of "The Thieves", and there is still a week before the movie is released.

"The daily income has dropped to 5 million. There is no chance anymore."

Almost all people in the industry have this feeling. A 20-day postponement is not a short period, but Stephen Chow seems to be a bit unlucky as there are too many movies released in mid-to-late March.

Especially imported films, "The Last Airbender", "Upside Down", "The Iron Lady", "Resident Evil 5".
With movies being released one after another, the competition is extremely fierce even though the schedule is not very popular.

However, people in the industry also understand that "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" is more popular than "Lost in Thailand", "Mojin: The Legend", "Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate", etc., but it is still inferior to the original "Thief".

At the same time, "Left Ear", which has been released for two weeks, has successfully broken the 4 million mark and closed at 4.16 million.

However, the drawbacks of fan movies were also fully revealed. After earning 2.98 million in the first week, it plummeted to 1.18 million in the second week, a drop of more than 60%.

The single-day box office was like an avalanche, falling below 1000 million, and even entering the weekend, there was no improvement in the box office.

The industry predicts that the final box office performance of "Left Ear" may not exceed 5 million.

However, Wei Jin, Lin Yufen, and even the entire creative team were very satisfied.

For Wei Jin, this result had been predicted long ago, and it was even better than he had expected. After all, "Those Years" only reaped the benefits for about ten days.

The reason why "Left Ear" has been able to hold up until now is probably because of the reputation that Shanhe Media has built up over the years, which has attracted many movie fans to the cinema.

In addition, it may be that the audience has not yet been bombarded with youth films and the novelty has not yet worn off.

For Lin Yufen, the first movie she directed was a huge hit at the box office, and she herself joined the 4 million box office club overnight. What else could she be dissatisfied with?

As for the actors, even though the box office of domestic films is getting higher and higher, how many of them have grossed over 4 million or even approached 5 million?

They have got everything they wanted!
In the small conference room of Shanhe Building, Lu Yang, who was always carefree, became serious for a rare time and said solemnly to Wang Baoqiang, Zhao Wenzhuo and Bai Bin in front of him:

"As you can all see, none of the movies produced by the company in the past few months has had a box office of less than 4 million. I hope our movie won't be a drag, so I'll leave it to you all for the next month."

In fact, for Shanhe Media’s films, the crew usually doesn’t start promoting the film so early. After all, the golden brand it has built up over the years has a strong appeal.

Especially this "One Man's Martial Arts" has attracted much attention since the beginning of the project because of the "Zhen Zhao dispute" last year.

With the addition of Wang Baoqiang, screenwriter of Wei Jin, director of Lu Yang and one of the leading actors of "Lost in Thailand", the BUFF can be said to be fully stacked, and there is no need to spend too much effort on publicity.

But this time Lu Yang was holding his breath.

He joined the company for quite some time, but later people like Xu Ke, Wu Ershan and others surpassed him in achievements.

Now even Xu Zheng, Lin Yufen and others are getting further and further ahead at the box office, so how can Lu Yang not be anxious?

The actors present could more or less understand Lu Yang's feelings, so they all spoke to comfort him.

"Director Lu, don't worry, I am very confident in our play."

Wang Baoqiang grinned, and his signature smile instantly appeared.

"Yes, Director Lu, we will definitely be number one during the May Day schedule."

A hint of confidence also appeared on Bai Bin's elegant and delicate face. Although he had not participated in many movies, he had been with Wei Jin for so long that he could still judge the quality of the script.

This time, she was confident.

Only Zhao Wenzhuo didn't say much, but his righteous face was full of fighting spirit.

Although the "Zhen-Zhao dispute" was eventually resolved smoothly, it also caused great damage to his career.

Especially the disastrous failure of "Da Wudang", its commercial value plummeted.

Even though Zhen Zidan's "Together" flopped even worse and even became a shame in film history, Zhao Wenzhuo always felt that his victory was unfair and his thoughts were not wise unless he won directly at the box office.

So this time, he hopes that "A Man's Martial Arts" will at least surpass the highest box office of the "Ip Man" series.

"Okay, since everyone is so confident, let's do it!"

Lu Yang stretched out his hand in a somewhat childish manner, with his palm facing up. The three leading actors understood what he meant, and they all put their hands up and roared.

"Let's do a great job, come on!"

"A Man's Martial Arts" began its promotion, and another Golden Harvest production, "The Witch", also had its premiere.

Although Wei Jin did not attend, Lin Chaoxian's many movies were box office hits and his appeal was not low. There were still many people from both production companies and artists who came to support him.

Tangren Film and Television, which was caught up in a contract termination storm, mobilized all its staff, including Miss Cai, Hu Ge, Jin Chen, Rouba and others to support the company's top actress.

Although it was the first time for Liu Shishi to face such an occasion, she still showed the temperament of one of the four little beauties when standing on the stage. She chatted with director Lin Chaoxian and producer Shi Nansheng and talked about the interesting things that happened during the filming.

"Shishi worked really hard. Maybe everyone knows that she suddenly fell ill during the filming. But after she recovered, she immediately threw herself into the filming and caught up with the progress."

Lin Chaoxian was very respectful and praised her in front of the media reporters. Liu Shishi also reciprocated and immediately said:
"It's all thanks to Director Lin's good teaching. This is my first time playing the leading role in a movie, and I learned a lot from Director Lin."

When facing the reporter's topic about box office, Liu Shishi was actually a little nervous, but when she thought of Wei Jin's gentle words that night, a faint smile appeared on her face.

"This is the script that Director Wei Jin wrote for me. Director Lin is very good at action movies, and the actors I act with are also very good. I also tried my best in the play. I believe that "The Witch" will definitely achieve good results. If I have to set a goal, I hope it will guarantee 3 million yuan at least and strive for 5 million yuan!"

The premiere of "The Witch" ended successfully, and the creators are about to enter a busy roadshow promotion, and there are many related reports in the media.

But unexpectedly, at this moment, a piece of news quickly occupied the entertainment headlines.

"Tang Yan, a popular young actress in mainland China, committed suicide by cutting her wrists, suspected of being hurt by love"

"At 2 a.m., Tang Yan was rushed to the hospital. The scars on her wrists were so deep that the bones were visible, and she was bleeding profusely."

As the news and hospital photos were exposed, Tang Yan's studio immediately responded: "Tangtang just accidentally cut the fruit. Thank you for your concern."

Her manager Ji Jingru also denied it on Weibo: "Tangtang is fine and will get better soon. She never had any negative thoughts and is still the positive and energetic Fruit Hard Candy."

Despite this, netizens are still full of imagination and there are many different opinions online.

After all, no matter how carelessly you cut the fruit, it is impossible to cut your wrist. In addition, the media has previously revealed that Tang Yan was cheated on by a Taiwanese scumbag, and her agent, assistant and others have also publicly accused the man of being shameless and a scumbag.

Tang Yan's behavior perfectly fits the image of a woman who is hurt by love, lonely and helpless, and who sacrifices herself for love.

Although Tang Yan is not very famous, she still has fair skin, beautiful faces and long legs, and there has been no problems since her debut.

Now she's been dumped by a little Taiwanese actor and even cuckolded. How the hell can she tolerate this?

So after one night, the scumbag from Taiwan became the target of attacks by mainland netizens.

A large number of female artists, either out of sympathy or to gain popularity, have also joined the ranks of condemnation online.

For a time, Qiu from Taiwan became a rat crossing the street, everyone wanted him to be beaten, and his Weibo account was directly destroyed.

Wei Jin no longer cared about the domestic entertainment gossip because Da Meiyuan was about to give birth. Wei Jin thought that he would not be so nervous this time because he had experienced it before, but in the end, he was still nervous because it was Da Meiyuan's first time and she was not young anymore.

After waiting in the private rest room for a while, Wei Jin couldn't help but go outside the delivery room and paced back and forth.

"Ah~~~~"

A heart-wrenching scream came from the delivery room, which made Wei Jin's eyes focus. He immediately stood in front of the delivery room door, trying to see something through the glass.

Unfortunately, it is destined to be in vain.

If it weren't for the fact that she wasn't given anesthesia and her screams were too loud, Wei Jin wouldn't even be able to hear Da Meiyuan's screams through the closed door.

At this time, assistants Liu Yan and Huang Mengying also came over.

"Boss, don't worry, Sister Yuanyuan and the baby will be fine."

While Liu Yan spoke to comfort her, she couldn't help but glance towards the delivery room, with a hint of envy in her eyes.

"Yes, boss. I have been with Sister Yuanyuan for the past few months. Her various examinations have shown that the fetal position is normal and her body is in good shape. She will be fine."

"Yeah, I know, I know"

Wei Jin forced a smile, slowly took two steps back, still staring at the door of the delivery room.

More than ten minutes passed, and the screams in the delivery room were sometimes miserable and sometimes hoarse. Wei Jin felt like his whole body was going numb.

For the first time ever, Wei Jin suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette, so he looked at Lao Zhu not far away.

"Old Zhu, do you have any cigarettes?"

"Have."

Zhu Wei, who had been guarding at the stairs, immediately ran over and took out a pack of Yan'an cigarettes that he usually smoked.

Leaving the delivery room and coming to the stairwell, Wei Jin lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.

"Cough cough."

Wei Jin started coughing after not smoking for so long, but his anxious mood seemed to be relieved.

Time passed little by little, and just as Wei Jin finished his third cigarette, the green light in the operating room finally came on.

A middle-aged white woman in surgical gown opened the door and walked out, taking off her mask and looking at everyone.

She smiled at Wei Jin who was rushing over and said, "Mr. Wei, congratulations. Both mother and child are safe and the child is very healthy!"

"Thank you, thank you, Dr. Jenny."

Wei Jin breathed a sigh of relief and clasped his hands together in thanks.

Behind him, Wei Xingbang, Wei Anguo and others who had followed also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily.

Old Wei’s family is growing more and more prosperous!
Huang Mengying, who is sentimental and kind, even had tears in her eyes.

During the past six months, she has been with Da Meiyuan every day, and their relationship is better than that of many so-called best friends.

Ten minutes later, Da Meiyuan finished the postpartum check-up and Wei Jin and his party were allowed to enter the ward.

However, only Wei Jin and two assistants chose to come in, after all, it was not very convenient.

In the delivery room, Da Meiyuan was lying on the bed resting. She was a little fat and her face was a little swollen.

Wei Jin held Da Meiyuan's cold hand and brushed away her messy hair. He felt a little distressed and said, "Sister Yuanyuan, thank you for your hard work."

But at this moment, Da Meiyuan didn't have Wei Jin in her eyes at all. She just looked at the little one next to her and couldn't help pouting with tears in her eyes: "Too ugly, how can my son be so ugly?"

"."

Wei Jin looked to the side and saw that the baby was wrinkled and looked like a little monkey. It really didn't look good, but it was his second child after all, and he had some experience.

"Sister Yuanyuan, all babies are like this when they are born. They will be fine after a while."

Although Da Meiyu had never seen what Dudu looked like during the confinement period, she had learned some information about it on the Internet and understood this principle, but she still found it difficult to accept it.

"It can't be that ugly."

"Sister Yuanyuan, I heard that the uglier you are when you are born, the prettier you will be when you grow up."

Huang Mengying looked at the little one who was sleeping soundly in the rocking car with his lips pursed and eyes closed, and gave some advice.

"really?"

"Really, Sister Yuanyuan, you and the boss are both so good-looking, this child will definitely be a handsome guy when he grows up."

Liu Yan also said something, but it was not to comfort her. Dudu was very pretty, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, like a porcelain doll.

Da Meiyuan's facial features are definitely not inferior to Zeng Li's. The product of his relationship with Wei Jin, even if he is not a super handsome guy, he is definitely not ugly.

I just don't know if he will be as promiscuous as his boss.

However, it is foreseeable that this boy will have a lot of romantic encounters in the future.

"hehe."

A woman's mind is like the weather in March and the rain in June, changing at any time. Da Meiyuan was soon coaxed into smiling.

Although Da Meiyuan is not completely obsessed with looks, who would want to rely solely on talent to make a living if they can have good looks? She naturally hopes that her son will be a handsome guy.

"By the way, Xiao Jin, have you chosen a name for the child?"

"Well, the single character Xu means vigorous and sunny."

Wei Jin replied as he touched his son's delicate face with one hand.

"Wei Xu, Wei Xu, it sounds really nice and is easy to pronounce. Uncle made a really good choice this time, hehe."

Looking at Da Meiyuan's proud and satisfied expression, Wei Jin knew what she was thinking.

Dudu's real name is Wei Shu, and Gao Yuanyuan has often complained about her in private.

But this word was chosen by my father, and it has a good meaning in Chinese, symbolizing beauty, goodness, beauty, and gentleness. It just sounds a bit strange.

Just as Wei Jin was thinking about how Dudu's future partner would call her, her son in the rocking crib seemed to sense that he had fallen out of favor and suddenly started crying.

The voice is loud and clear, as powerful as a bell!
