This actor needs more money
Chapter 236 The box office exploded
There were not many people attending the Crazy Stone premiere, and some of them were leaving that day, so there were only four or five tables at the evening banquet.
On Ding Xiu's side, someone from Qin Chao Entertainment occupied a table.
In the box, the director entertains the director's friends, and the lead actor entertains the lead actor's friends.
Huang Bo ran around with the wine glass and then came to sit down next to Ding Xiu.
"Let's have something white, I can't hold it anymore." Seeing Wang Baoqiang about to pour the wine, Huang Bo waved his hand hurriedly.
Wang Baoqiang was confused: "This is white, Maotai."
Ding Xiu said: "He is talking about boiled water."
This is the difference between Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo. Baoqiang is not stupid and is quite clever most of the time, but he is not as good as Huang Bo who came out to explore the world early and has a little sense of worldliness.
Huang Bo interacted with the guests at other tables, and some of them even left their phone numbers. He would definitely not be familiar with them, but at least they were not strangers.
These people have seen his performance in Crazy Stone. This wave is very likely to become popular, and they are willing to leave a good relationship.
Relationships are built over time.
If I were Baoqiang, I would have followed the director, toasted stupidly, didn't leave his phone number, didn't greet each one, drank a few large glasses of wine in vain, and ended up with nothing.
Huang Bo took a sip of mineral water to rinse his mouth, then smacked it in his mouth and said, "Brother Xiu understands me. Although I drank a bit too much today, when it comes to you, I have to have three more glasses."
"Thank you for coming all the way to support me. I didn't expect this. I heard that you were busy, so I never wanted to disturb you. I won't say anything anymore. I'm drinking."
After drinking three glasses in a row, Huang Bo's face became rosy with the smell of alcohol. He then filled up another glass and said to the people at the table:
"Thank you all for coming so far to express my respect to Mr. Qin, Wu Jing, Bao Qiang, Xiaolan and Yang Mi."
At the wine table, the atmosphere was very lively, everyone was talking and laughing.
It's just that Baoqiang's eyes were a little dodgey when he looked at Qin Gang.
There is no grudge between the two. On the contrary, they used to have a good relationship. However, when they were filming A World Without Thieves, Bao Qiang quit Huayi, which made Lao Qin a little sad.
Over the years, the two rarely met.
Sometimes when there were gatherings at Ding Xiu's house, they would intentionally avoid each other. Today's banquet was so unavoidable that they got together.
For Qin Gang, Baoqiang felt guilty. He asked himself, Lao Qin had never treated him badly. We had known each other for a long time. There was a time when they were not only boss and employee, but also friends.
It's just that the subsequent development was a bit unexpected, no one expected it to be like that.
If he had not signed with Huayi back then, he would have lost the opportunity to cooperate with Andy Lau and Feng Xiaogang. It was too tempting.
At the same time, Qin Chao Entertainment could not give him better treatment. In contrast, he still left.
"Old Qin, Baoqiang, why are you keeping a straight face?" Seeing Wang Baoqiang and Lao Qin's unnaturalness, Ding Xiu said: "Old Qin, when I didn't meet Baoqiang, you kept mentioning him to me. Why didn't you mention him to me when we met? That’s it.”
"The same goes for Baoqiang. Although we are no longer in the same company, we have been in love for so many years. It is not polite to offer a toast when we meet."
Wang Baoqiang said with a smile: "Brother Xiu said, blame me. Brother Qin, I toast you. Long time no see."
Qin Gang smiled, raised his glass and said, "Long time no see. How have you been lately?"
"It's okay. There's a drama starring him that will be aired in the second half of the year."
"Yes, I'm doing well. I'll have the opportunity to take care of my old club's younger brothers and sisters more in the future."
"That's necessary. Qin Chao Entertainment is my hometown. If there is anything I can do to help in the future, just ask and I will do it."
"This is what you said, and everyone has heard it. From now on, if the company wants to film with you, don't push back."
"That's not possible. I'll shoot it for free."
"I didn't say I'd give you money either."
"Brother Qin, I just wanted to say something polite."
In the joke, Qin Gang and Bao Qiang settled their differences and laughed away their grudges.
Regarding Bao Qiang's job-hopping, Qin Gang was lying at first when he said he wasn't sad, but he blamed himself more for being incapable of retaining people and giving artists better things.
This is why Ding Xiu has to play the male lead even though he is trying to sell everything at the same time.
A few years later, Qin Gang had long since let go of Baoqiang.
Today, Qin Chao Entertainment has two generals, Ding Xiu and Qin Lan. Seeing that Huang Bo and Yang Mi are also getting up, everything is moving in a good direction.
With just a few of them, they can make a lot of money every year.
With a higher status, more money, and a straight waist, Qin Gang's vision and structure have also broadened, and he has long forgotten about Baoqiang's job-hopping.
After several glasses of wine, Wang Baoqiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Changing jobs was a turning point in his career, and he has no regrets to this day.
But if I don’t regret it, I don’t regret it. I feel a knot in my heart.
He is one of the first artists signed by Qin Chao Entertainment. Strictly speaking, he is the second artist, the first being Ding Xiu.
At the beginning, there were only three people in the company: Ding Xiu, Lao Qin, and him.
The three of them have known each other since they were young, and it is impossible to say that they don't have feelings for each other. Fortunately, Ding Xiu supported his choice of career back then and didn't dislike him afterwards. Otherwise, he would have had to bear this obstacle in his heart for who knows how many years to get over it.
…
The meal lasted for more than an hour, everyone exchanged glasses and became extremely drunk.
People at other tables have already begun to leave, and one-third of the people in the private room are missing.
"Director Ning, the box office of your movie is at least 10 million, and it's possible to get 15 million."
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
The total investment is three million, and a box office of nine million will be enough to repay the investment. Fifteen million will earn six million.
After dividing the accounts, it might be like a house in your hands, but with the box office results, there is probably no shortage of investment for the next movie.
"What fifteen million, at least twenty million."
"Who said 20 million? Ding Xiu, please bear witness. If it's not 20 million, I'll ask Ding for repairs."
"Director Ning, I don't even have 20 million if you sell me. Why don't you take advantage of me sleeping at night to see which kidney is valuable and pick one?"
"Hahaha, just kidding, starting from tomorrow I will book 30 shows, which is considered supporting the movie."
"Brother Xiu is great. Next time I make a movie, I will be the first to ask you for investment."
"Forget it, it's okay if you ask me to play the male lead."
After a few words with Ning Hao, Ding Xiu proposed to book the place, and the atmosphere suddenly became more lively. Ning Hao, who was drunk, held his hand tightly and almost kowtowed.
It made Ding Xiu quite embarrassed.
In fact, it was Lao Qin who signaled him to reserve the venue, and also said that the company would reimburse him.
Through this Crazy Stone, you can see that Ning Hao's director level is very high. He is a director who understands the market and is very thoughtful and talented.
Such a director will definitely become popular in the future, so it is a good thing to make friends with him in advance.
The reason why he gave the opportunity to Ding Xiu was because Qin Gang knew that actors and directors can communicate better, and Ding Xiu's chat with Ning Hao would definitely be more effective than his own chat with Ning Hao.
Besides, Ding Xiu is also a shareholder of the company. Together with Qin Lan, he has more shares than him. With this status, it is easier to talk.
He wants money, he wants fame, he wants fame, and all in all, no one dares to underestimate him.
…
At the entrance of the hotel, a group of people were holding each other's arms.
Yang Mi stretched out her hand to stop a car and turned to Ding Xiu: "Brother Xiu, when I go back to Nortel, I want to pass by your house. Can we come together?"
Wang Baoqiang, Huang Bo, and Qin Gang looked at Yang Mi like a fool.
But then he realized that the little girl came to the company a little late and didn't know Ding Xiu's situation.
In fact, not many people in the company knew about Ding Xiu's situation, except for a few of them who were better at it, and only assistant Zhao Liying knew about it.
Qin Lan took Ding Xiu's hand and said with a smile: "No need, I'll go with him."
Yang Mi was dumbfounded and had some suspicions in her mind.
It's not surprising that she was surprised. She hadn't been in the company for long. She usually attended school and took time off to film when she had work. She couldn't come to the company more than once a year.
Qin Lan and Ding Xiu were also busy, so it was difficult for everyone to join together.
"Let's go now, see you later." Under the night, Ding Xiu and Qin Lan got into a car.
Accompanied by the sound of the horn, the taillights of the car quickly disappeared into the street.
Qin Gang and others said a few words and left one after another.
Half an hour later, Nortel, girls dormitory.
"Let me tell you, the people who went there are all big names. Teacher Guo Tao looks serious, but he is actually very polite and gentle in his words. He has no airs at all."
"Sister Qin Lan is beautiful and generous. She is just like the TV series, but her personality is a bit cold."
"Wu Jing is not tall or handsome, but he is very tough and masculine."
"But the best one has to be Brother Ding Xiu. He is handsome, humorous, knows a lot, can talk about anything, and is very gentlemanly and polite."
In the dormitory, at Yuan Shanshan's strong request, after taking a shower, Yang Mi sat cross-legged on the bed and told her roommate about her thoughts about attending the Crazy Stone premiere today.
Speaking of the big names I met, I felt full of pride.
The others did not dare to interrupt, their young and beautiful eyes were full of envy.
Although they have been exposed to celebrities, actors, and celebrities in school, they are also very popular, and there are many movie stars and TV stars among them.
But those are teachers.
It is different from personal contact like Yang Mi.
In the current undergraduate acting class, if nothing else goes wrong, Yang Mi will be the leader and will do best in the future.
Yuan Shanshan pouted and said enviously: "Mimi, if you have this kind of opportunity next time, can you take me with you? I like Ding Xiu very much and I want his autographed photo."
With a shiver in her heart, Yang Mi became defensive, her face calm: "Of course it's no problem, it's all trivial."
"Last time I asked you to ask if Qin Chao Entertainment is still recruiting people. Did you ask for me?"
"Ah, I asked, I asked. The manager said that there is no idea of recruiting new people for the time being. The company's resources are currently concentrated on Sister Qin Lan and Brother Ding Xiu. It is not very friendly to newcomers. It may take a while."
I'm not lying to Yuan Shanshan, Qin Chao Entertainment really doesn't recruit new people now. No, it doesn't mean that it won't recruit new people, unless you are the kind of person who looks extremely handsome and stunningly beautiful at first glance.
The company's resources are all on Ding Xiu and Qin Lan, so how can they still have the energy to train new people.
There aren't many second-tier jobs like her and Huang Bo.
"It's such a pity." Yuan Shanshan was a little disappointed.
The resume she submitted fell into disarray, and there was indeed no reply.
On bed No. 1 next to the door of the dormitory, Zhang Xiaofei held a professional book in her hands and read silently, but her absent-minded eyes from time to time revealed her absent-mindedness.
There was a big star living in the same dormitory, and he would tell stories about what he saw and heard from time to time. Who wouldn't envy him?
She was also very envious.
But there is no way, there is no point in envy. First of all, Yang Mi will definitely not take them to know her resources.
It's no use getting to know her in the second place. She doesn't have Yuan Shanshan's beautiful face and devilish figure, so there's nothing attractive about her. Why do people think so highly of her? Take her to play?
…
After sleeping until three o'clock in the morning, Ding Xiu came out of Qin Lan's house and went straight to the airport. He arrived at the New Shanghai Beach crew in the afternoon and did not go back to the hotel. He directly put on makeup on site and started filming.
A week later, at noon, Ding Xiu was eating in the RV as usual, and Wang Baoqiang called.
It started with swear words.
"Fuck, Brother Xiu, it exploded!"
"exploded?"
"Brother Bo exploded."
Ding Xiu felt cold: "Where did it explode?"
According to his understanding, Huang Bo is not that kind of person. Besides, with his arrogance, who would want to expose him?
"The box office is a blast." Wang Baoqiang said excitedly: "Crazy Stone has a box office of 6 million in the first week."
"Hiss." Ding Xiu took a breath of air.
With an investment of 3 million, the film has already reached 6 million within a week of its release, which is indeed a huge hit.
You know, Crazy Stone is a low-budget film with little publicity and low film schedule. It is already remarkable to achieve this result.
If nothing else goes wrong, theaters will increase their film schedules and the box office will be even more impressive.
"Professionals predict that the total box office will be at the bottom of 15 million." It can be heard that Wang Baoqiang is very excited, as if he is starring.
He was happy for Huang Bo.
Even though he always teases Huang Bo about his lack of filming, he also hopes that this big brother will be well.
"Lao Huang is not interesting enough. I didn't even listen to him for such a good thing. Do you not want to treat me?"
"It's only the first week. I guess he is also confused. He is worried that the box office will not be good later, so he does not dare to celebrate in advance."
"Okay, I understand. I'll go back and kill him after a while."
After Huang Bo's Crazy Stone was released, Wu Jing's Black Fist was about to be released on Hong Kong Island. He finished filming in Shanghai and returned just in time to catch up with Black Fist's mainland release.
I just don’t know if Wu Jing’s Black Boxing will be as popular as Crazy Stone at the box office and become a dark horse this summer.
After hanging up Wang Baoqiang's call, Ding Xiu called Huang Bo: "Old Huang, I heard that you are doing well at the box office. When are you going to treat me?"
At the opening of a certain bar, Huang Bo had his guitar hanging sideways on his body, covering his ears and loudly saying: "I am so poor that I can't even take out a steel penny from my trouser pocket."
The box office, let alone 6 million, has nothing to do with him. It belongs to the investors, producers, and theaters.
He worked hard for several months and received a salary of 10,000 yuan.
Of course, it would be wrong if it doesn't matter. What the employer gains is profit, and what he gains is fame.
Walking on the street these days, many viewers can call his name.
Well, black skin!
In addition, he finally had a commercial performance, which cost 18,000 yuan per show. Putting aside the company's commission, he got a few thousand yuan more, which was a lot for him, and his life was finally on the right track.
Life is not a little bit better than before.
"But Brother Xiu, you've already spoken. I can't help but invite you. When you come back, I'll go to your house to have rabbit hot pot. I'll prepare the ingredients myself."
"You're so stupid, I'm going to vomit."
"Hahaha, let's change it to another one. Oops, stop talking. The bar manager started urging me. I want to go on stage. Let's talk later. I'll hang up."
"You don't want to be plagued by disease, right?"
[No licking+cool writing+contrast+behind the scenes]
Some people call me the Living Bodhisattva, and some people call me the devil.
Actually, I am neither, I am just a disease acquisition businessman!
After placing the bid, if you feel it is appropriate, you can sell your diseases to me and you can gain health.
Of course, I don't just buy diseases, I can also sell life span and health, as long as you can afford it!
Madam, you don’t want to be plagued by illness, right?
