Chapter 88 Year

The next day.

Sina: "Zhou Xun, Ning Jing, Mei Ting, and Chen Hao gathered at the premiere of "The Tuner", and the scene was filled with stars and beautiful women."

Sina: "In order to play the role of a blind man, Fu Dalong specially lived with a blind man to understand the true appearance of a blind man. During the training to imitate a blind man, he fell into a sewer without a manhole cover. If he hadn't been an athletic student, he might have ended up in the hospital. ."

Sina: “Wang Shu: One cannot live without dreams.”

Sina: "Wang Shu will once again compete with the three major European shows with "The Tuner"."

Sina: "Wang Shu: Although I am young, it does not mean that I have no ability."

  As various press releases or information appear on the Internet or on TV, "The Tuner" has become more popular before it is broadcast.

Whether in real life or on the Internet, more and more people are beginning to know about the movie "The Tuner" and start discussing it.

Especially after Wang Shu's speech at the premiere went viral, it instantly aroused the interest of many people.

They want to see if the film "The Tuner" is really as tough as Wang Shu's mouth?
  The second film by a young director under 20 years old.

Ha ha.

As Wang Shu expected, many people were skeptical about the quality of the movie "The Tuner".

From the bottom of my heart, I don't feel that the quality of "Spiritual Boy"'s second film is on the line.

Many people, now.

It's not that I was attracted by Wang Shu's movies, but "The Tuner" came into the eyes of many people due to Wang Shu's hype.

What they want now is to watch the jokes of young directors under 20 years old.

Tianya Forum.

There are endless posts discussing The Tuner.

On its homepage, there is a hot post about "The Tuner".

The title of the hot post reads: "What if the second film of a young director under the age of 20 is really a masterpiece?"

1L (Xi Gu Qingfeng): "If you ask this question, it would be more reliable for you to believe that I am the President of the United States."

2L (arsenic and wine): "No way, this is bullshit."

3L (admitting defeat at the beginning): "Haha, labor and management put their words here. If it is like what the poster said, labor and management will eat up for everyone to see."

4L (wind blows the heart of a girl): "Master, I am the reincarnation of Tathagata Buddha. Please transfer 10 yuan to me quickly and I will guarantee that you will ascend to bliss as soon as possible."

5L (deeply in love after only two days): "Why are there still such stupid people now? Why would they ask such stupid things here?"

6L (None of your business): "I think Wang Shu really has the possibility to make a good film. His first film won an award in Berlin, which shows that he is capable. Although he is very young , but it cannot be denied that some people are talented. I think Wang Shu may be such a person."

The poor netizen whose forum name is "Guan Dandanshi" was ridiculed hundreds of times after replying to this sentence.

January 1th is the 27th day of the New Year, and the flavor of the New Year is already very strong.

Tomorrow will be the New Year's Eve. In addition to the reunion dinner for each family, the Yangshi Spring Festival Gala will also start at 8 p.m.

This year.

Wang Shu still didn't go home, wandering alone in the cold capital.

He is not alone, because because "The Tuner" is about to be released, some people in his One Tree Company did not have a holiday.

Of course, according to normal procedures, it’s not time for vacation yet.

January 1th is Friday, which is normal working time.

Except for factories that start their holidays a few days in advance before the Spring Festival, companies located in office buildings basically don’t take their holidays until the afternoon of New Year’s Eve.

If an employee wants to enter the holiday in advance, he or she must ask for leave in addition to taking time off.

Wang Shu is relatively easy to talk to.

The arrangement of Yishu Company is that except for the employees who stay with the company and continue to work hard, other employees will officially take leave after finishing work this afternoon.

Wang Shu sat in his office and took a look at the first-day box office data of "Fearless".

"Fearless" starring Jet Li, Sun Li and others had a box office of nearly 800 million on its first day, which was the best result among many films released on Wednesday in the past year.

Moreover, the movie's box office in Yangcheng even surpassed that of "King Kong" and ranked second in the national movie box office city rankings.

Prior to this, Beijing ranked first at the national movie box office, second was Magic City, and third was Yangcheng.

Moreover, Yangcheng has always been inferior to Beijing and Shanghai in the movie box office rankings, ranking third in the rankings.

But this time, audiences in Guangzhou went to the cinema to buy tickets to watch "Fearless" as if they had been given a shot of blood. As a result, Yangcheng, the third-oldest movie theater in the world, finally surpassed the Magic City and ranked second in the national movie box office rankings.

Not only that, the single-day box office of "Fearless" released on Wednesday in Guangzhou was 20 higher than that of "King Kong" released on Thursday.

Just, nationwide.

Different from the unanimous praise of "King Kong", the audience evaluation of "Fearless Fearless" is polarized and divided.

The movie "King Kong" has received continuous positive reviews since its release, with few negative reviews.

The reason why its box office performance is not as good as that of films such as "The Promise" is mainly because it is an imported film and has inherent disadvantages.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Yangshi released information and officially confirmed that Zhou Xun, Ning Jing, and Mei Ting have joined the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Once the news was announced, it aroused considerable discussion not only in the entertainment industry but also on the Internet.

On the 25th, when Zhou Xun, Ning Jing, Mei Ting, and Chen Hao went to the premiere of "The Tuner", many people had corresponding speculations about it.

Now that Yangshi has released the confirmed news, except that Chen Hao has been excluded, there is not much difference from the guessed information.

All of a sudden, the Internet became lively again.

As "The Tuner" has been highly discussed even before it was released, many people also know that the screenwriter and director of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is...Wang Shu.

As a result, there was a cry on the Internet.

Many netizens posted similar posts in major forums and post bars such as "Brother Xun is confused!", "Sister Jing, please say goodbye!", "Mei Ting was fooled!" and other similar posts.

Of course, some people have carefully analyzed it and said that both China Film and Yangshi are willing to cooperate with Wang Shu, proving that the script of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is good and that Wang Shu is not bad.

This has caused many netizens to think.

Since, China Film and Yangshi will invest 50 million in the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan" directed by Wang Shu and written by himself, and can also invite Zhou Xun, Ning Jing, Mei Ting and others to star.

Does this mean that Wang Shu is capable?
  And Wang Shu has this ability, so "The Tuner" is probably not bad either?
  Suddenly, many people became more and more curious about the movie "The Tuner".

This time, some people no longer want to watch the fun of young directors under 20 years old, but really want to see the content of the movie "The Tuner".

……

Nancheng Hutong, Beijing.

Yang Mi watched the news on the Internet through her computer at home, and suddenly said: "It turns out it's Zhou Xun, Ning Jing and Mei Ting."

Some time ago, she went to the set of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" to audition, and after a lot of hard work, she got a supporting role.

On the day she went for the audition, Wang Shu was not at the audition, it was the person who was hosting the audition.

At first, Yang Mi wanted to try out other roles in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but Yang Wang thought her acting skills were average, so they rejected her.

The next day, she went to audition again, and finally Huangtian paid off and got her a role.

In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", she plays Ying Zhaoyi (Ying Guiren).

Although Yang Mi entered the undergraduate class of the Acting Department of Beijing Film Academy in 2005, she... is actually a child star.

When she was 4 years old, she played the role of Princess Xianyi in "Tang Minghuang".

When she was 5 years old, she played the role of Zhou Xingxing's daughter in the Hong Kong film "The Greatest Hero".

When he was a child, he had already acted with Xingye.

Of course, the first screenplay in her life had to be "Pink Family".

In September 2003, 9-year-old Yang Mi collaborated with Tong Dawei, Sun Li and others in the period romance drama "The Family", and played the role of Li Xiaotao, who wanted to become a song and dance troupe actor.

This officially kicked off his acting career.

"I wonder if Director Wang's "The Tuner" is good or not?" Yang Mi sat in front of the window, holding her face and thinking.

"After that, I will go to the crew of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" to film. Sooner or later, I will have contact with Director Wang."

"If you haven't watched "The Tuner", will there be a lack of topics?"

"After all, "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was launched immediately after "The Tuner."

"There will definitely be many people discussing Director Wang's "The Tuner" on the set."

"If I haven't seen it and can't strike up a conversation, wouldn't I look a little out of place?"

Yang Mi pursed her lips and then made up her mind, "No matter if it's good or not, I'd better buy a ticket and go to the cinema to watch it on New Year's Day."

When his thoughts reached this point, he began to ponder Wang Shu's appearance.

"What does Director Wang look like?"

"There seem to be photos online."

She then searched on the computer for a while, and sure enough she saw photos of Wang Shu taken by reporters while attending events outside, as well as stills from "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox".

"Not to mention, he is really handsome."

Yang Mi commented on Wang Shu’s photo and noticed the Nine-tailed Fox stills.

"I almost forgot that Director Wang also starred in an idol drama. It seems that I have to catch up on this TV series." Yang Mi made up her mind and searched the Internet on her computer, and soon saw " Pirated video of "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox".

In this era, the protection of copyrights for film and television works is extremely imperfect.

Film and television works such as TV series or movies, as long as they are not uploaded to the website by the video website company.

It's not illegal!

When individuals upload TV series or movies to video websites, as long as they are not reported, they can be openly displayed on the video website.

Even if it is reported, the video website will only remove the reported video from the shelves, and there will be no other consequences.

As a result, it gradually evolved into the video website secretly allowing employees in the company to create accounts on the website in their own names to upload videos.

In this way, you can freely infringe the copyright of TV series or movies and other film and television works on the Internet without having to bear any responsibility.

Amazing, he was reported and the corresponding video in his personal account was removed.

Then, change to a new account and upload again.
  There will be a gap between the time when the video is reported and when the video is taken down.

This interval is enough for many people to finish watching the video.

In a blink of an eye, it’s time to get off work in the afternoon.

Employees of Yishu Company, whether they are staying behind to continue working overtime during the New Year or those who are going home for the holidays from this moment on, are all ready to go.

Go to
  Wang Shu has booked a hotel.

This is the first year since the establishment of Yishu Film and Television Company, and it is also the first time that Wang Shu, as the boss, held a year-end party at the company.

In order to make it easier for employees to go to the dinner venue, Wang Shu asked people in the company to prepare vehicles.

Just wait until it's time to get off work, and then you can go out and take the bus.

Because it is so convenient, many employees have been looking forward to the year-end dinner in the evening since they started working in the afternoon.

One by one, even the energy to work was taken away a lot.

The dining place is located in a private room of a hotel.

In the rather spacious private room, there were 6 tables, and the dishes served included fish, meat, shrimp, seafood, etc., which were quite rich.

Wang Shu stood on the stage in front of the private room, looking at the more than 40 employees in the company below the stage, and sighed for a moment.

When Yishu Film and Television Company was first established, there were only a dozen people including him.

With the development of more than half a year, it has grown to more than 40 people.

Although the scale of more than 40 people is far smaller than that of a film and television company with two to three hundred employees like Enlight, Yishu was only a new film and television company established last year.

The future is still very long.

Now, on a smaller scale.

In the future, it will slowly grow as business increases.

Wang Shu stood on the stage and delivered a speech. The employees in the audience were eating and listening without any delay.

The food at the year-end dinner was sumptuous. After seeing the feast in front of them, no employee could not praise Wang Shu for his magnanimous boss.

When Wang Shu finished his year-end speech, the employees immediately applauded enthusiastically.

As the director of the company, Zhou Xiaofa took the stage and delivered a speech immediately after Wang Shu finished his speech.

The employees who were having a big meal also applauded him very much.

At the end of this session, Xiao He, the company's receptionist, walked onto the stage under everyone's gaze.

Seeing He Qian on stage, every employee even stopped eating involuntarily.

They had heard in the company before that the year-end dinner not only included a big meal, but also a lucky draw.

First prize, 1 cash, for person in total.

Second prize, 5K cash, for a total of 3 people.

Third prize, 3K cash, for a total of 5 people.

Fourth prize, 1K cash, 10 people in total.

The fifth prize (consolation prize), 100 yuan in cash, is shared by all employees who did not win the first four grand prizes.

In 2006, the average salary in Beijing was only two to three thousand yuan.

The first prize is RMB 10,000, which is worth several months' salary.

Even the fourth prize, in addition to the consolation prize, is worth 1 yuan, which is equivalent to less than half a month's salary.

At this stage, the employees who were eating the big meal began to lose their composure, and some even began to have shortness of breath.

Nervousness, anticipation and other emotions suddenly came to mind.

Xiao He at the front desk, named He Qian, is a twenty-year-old young girl.

Not only is she pretty and cute, but her voice is also very sweet.

It's just that he is relatively thin and flat.

He Qian stood on the stage and first picked up the carton in front of her, making the hole on the front of the carton face everyone.

"Did you see it? There is nothing inside now, just a very ordinary cardboard box."

"So, there is no need to worry about any behind-the-scenes operations."

"Under Mr. Wang's strong statement again and again, this lottery absolutely adheres to the principle of fairness, openness and fairness."

"The reason why you can't draw the big prize is just because you are unlucky, not anything else."

"Of course, even if you fail to draw the first four grand prizes, there is still a final consolation prize guaranteed."

"So, it doesn't count as leaving empty-handed."

"Oh!" He Qian's words instantly aroused the emotions of many employees, and they all shouted in agreement.

He Qian smiled and then continued, "Next, please send one person from each table to deliver the balls that were distributed to you in the company."

Following He Qian's signal, the employees in the six-table company took action and soon handed their balls to one person and handed them over to her.

After He Qian got the balls of the same color, she did not put them directly into the carton. Instead, she counted them, and after confirming that they were correct, she threw them all into the carton.

After doing this, under everyone's expectant eyes, He Qian continued, "Next, please ask Mr. Wang to come over and shake the carton."

Wang Shu walked onto the stage, faced the employees in the company, and said with a smile: "Originally, I didn't want to deal with this link."

"Because, after I shake the cardboard box, the positions of the balls inside will definitely change."

"That is to say, the balls you can draw before you are shaken by me will definitely be different from those you can draw after being shaken by me."

The employees in the audience were very happy and shouted: "Mr. Wang, you shake the handle, it's okay."

Someone also shouted: "Mr. Wang, if I don't win the grand prize, the responsibility is yours."

Wang Shu smiled and then said: "But, I know that if I don't come up and shake this box, then I will be the one who draws the lottery for you later."

"Comparing the two, I think the job of shaking boxes is more suitable for me."

"Haha." The employees laughed in unison when they heard Wang Shu's sudden turn of events.

The atmosphere at the scene is really good.

Under their gaze, Wang Shu picked up the cardboard box, shook it a few times normally, and then put it down.

He Qian saw that Wang Shu had completed his work and continued to host: "Next, please ask Director Zhou to come on stage to draw the first prize for us."

Following a burst of warm applause, Zhou Xiaofa walked onto the stage with excitement.

In order to ensure that the lottery was fair and open, he stopped when he was a little distance away from the carton. He did not glance into the carton with his eyes from the beginning to the end, but leaned sideways and reached out directly to touch it.

He Qian took the ball from Zhou Xiaofa's hand, then looked at the name written on the ball, and immediately announced: "The one who won the first prize is"

After all, some people are happy and some are regretful about the lottery during the year-end dinner party.

that's all.
  The year-end party of Yishu Company ended successfully.

Whether they were the employees who won the grand prize or those who did not get the grand prize and only received consolation prizes, they all praised Wang Shu.

I'm lucky to have such a good boss.

Next.

That's what happened when "The Tuner" was released on January 1, the first day of the Lunar New Year.
