I become a big star after I sleep

Chapter 213 Don't look at the box office, only talk about feelings
Saturday night.

It's a good time for couples to go on a date.

Played all day during the day, had dinner at night, went to a movie, and checked the time...

Oh, the dormitory is closed, just... no, it's too unfortunate.

When I took out my pocket, I happened to bring my ID card... It must not be for going online.

But today, Yan Ying's handsome men and women did not leave school for a romantic night, but watched movies at school.

Yanying's viewing hall.

A huge poster at the door attracted many people's attention.

A huge golden rod divides the poster in half, and the lower part of the rod is surrounded by a golden hoop.

People in China who have read "Journey to the West" can recognize that this is the golden hoop and the golden hoop.

Below the golden hoop is Zhou Xingxing's half-human face and half-monkey face, both with eyes closed, clasped together in prayer.

But...it gives people a sad feeling.

His eyes are blocked by a long red sleeve.

The long sleeves extend towards the red sun in the sky, like clouds, and on the long sleeves, there are many figures standing.

At the bottom of the poster, there are four big characters of "A Chinese Journey to the West".

The colors of the poster are simple, lots of red and a little gold.

Very eye-catching.

Almost everyone who entered the movie hall stopped in front of the poster for a while.

In the cinema hall, many people were already seated.

Not all of them are students of Yanying, but there are also teachers, social personnel, a small amount of media, and film critics, but the majority of students are students.

The movie hadn't started yet, and it was quite noisy in the auditorium, everyone was discussing the content of the movie.

"Tiantian, you were on the set when "A Chinese Journey to the West" was filming, you must know what the movie is about, tell us about it."

In the auditorium at the back, several girls were talking in low voices.

"I don't know, the filming is not shot in sequence."

Jing Tian shook her head, she really didn't know.

But thinking that many of the plots in the movie are very funny, she said:

"It's supposed to be a comedy, it's a lot of fun."

This level of spoilers obviously cannot satisfy the little sisters.

"We also know it's a comedy, how well Zhou Xingxing acted..."

Zheng Shuang pursed her mouth, rolled her eyes, and pressed it to Jing Tian's ear again:

"Who do you think Senior Qin's girlfriend is? Is it among these actors?"

Although Jing Tian is a little naive, he is not stupid, knowing that he must not talk about it.

She already regretted that she accidentally blurted out before.

vaguely said:
"I heard about it too. I don't know who it is, and I don't know if the news is true."

No matter what other people ask, Jing Tian will only say this.

The big blinking eyes seem to say, believe it or not, I believe it anyway.

……

In the first row of the auditorium, only Qin Muchu and Zhou Xingxing, the main creators of "A Chinese Journey to the West", are sitting here, and the rest of the actors are sitting in the second row.

The remaining seats in the first row, except Yan Ying's leader, are all investors of the film.

It stands to reason that the leader of Yanying, who is the host, must talk more, but at this time the right to speak is not in their hands. Everyone quietly listened to the words of the man in the middle, and nodded with a smile from time to time.

"Directors and actors from Hong Kong Island, including film companies, come to the mainland to work together, and I support them all.

A few years ago, there were relevant documents to encourage the convergence and integration of the entertainment circles of mainland China and Hong Kong Island, but it has not been implemented. This cooperation is a good start. I also hope that it can be maintained and jointly make our Chinese movies Big and good. "

Such a high-profile speech, but no one thought it was bragging, because the person who said it was Han Sanping.

And the identity of the person who listened to this is not simple, the big brother Xiang Huaqiang on Hong Kong Island.

But at the moment, he doesn't have the demeanor of a big boss. He bowed his head and nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, you are right."

After talking to Xiang Huaqiang, Han Sanping turned his attention to Qin Muchu who was chatting with Zhou Xingxing next door.

The smile on his face remained the same, but his tone was slightly different from when he spoke to Xiang Huaqiang just now...

It's more friendly and casual, less official, and less majestic.

"Little Qin."

Han Sanping patted Qin Muchu's arm.

"I definitely can't follow the publicity. I have a disease that will kill me when I leave Beijing in November...including December. Really, I'm not kidding."

Qin Muchu looked at Zhou Xingxing with a sad and helpless expression.

Hearing Han Sanping's call suddenly, he turned his head immediately.

"Third Master, tell me."

"You invested a lot in the TV series at the beginning of the year, why is there no movement now?"

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Muchu knew that Han Sanping was talking about "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".

Speaking of this, he still has some liver pain.

"Third Master, don't you know about this?"

"What's going on? The script is stuck?"

"That's not true. The script has passed the review, the crew has been set up, and the actors are almost selected... Then, it broke up."

"Scattered?" Han Sanping asked in surprise.

It's all at this stage, how can the crew break up.

"Well, I received news that this kind of subject matter is not recommended for stardom, so it will be over."

Qin Muchu gritted his teeth on "not recommended".

Saying it is not recommended, in fact, it is not given.

"What's the matter? Aren't there still a few tomb-robbing themes this year?" Han Sanping asked strangely.

Qin Muchu felt even more helpless.

"I also asked, it was all pre-ordered, and it was self-produced by other TV stations, and it will be gone after this wave is broadcast."

Han Sanping opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort Qin Muchu.

But he was still a little puzzled, he didn't know this news, where did Qin Muchu know it.

"Who did you listen to, is the news accurate?"

"Exactly, I was told by an elder at CCTV. Although there was no clear regulation, it was mentioned during the meeting." Qin Muchu replied.

The elder of CCTV is Jin Yue. Qin Muchu originally wanted to sell "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" to CCTV after it was filmed, but Jin Yue gave him such a reply.

It's a good thing that Jin Yue said it, otherwise the filming of the show will be completed, and it will be dumbfounded if it doesn't get a star.

Although it was a pity in Qin Muchu's heart, he had no choice but to leave this project in the era of web dramas.

Hearing what Qin Muchu said, Han Sanping didn't ask who it was.

Knowing that it was the news from CCTV, it must be impossible.

In terms of television, CCTV's status is similar to that of China Film in terms of movies, and it is true.

……

While the two were chatting, the movie theater gradually quieted down, and the movie was about to start.

What story does "A Chinese Journey to the West" tell?
Monkey King and the Bull Demon King planned to eat Tang Seng. After being discovered by Guanyin, he wanted to beat Monkey King to death, but Tang Seng was willing to exchange his life for Monkey King's life. Then Guanyin sent Monkey King to reincarnate 500 years later. The pain of love in the world becomes the story of Monkey King again.

Familiar with Zhou's nonsensical style, bursts of laughter resounded from time to time in the theater, and everyone regarded it as a comedy with a lot of brains.

I didn't expect that "Journey to the West" could be spoofed like this.

But as the plot continued to progress, the laughter began to decrease, and the people who laughed gradually only young people, and the expressions of the slightly older people became more dignified.

It seems... not just a comedy, they saw helplessness—the helplessness of Supreme Treasure.

"I once had a sincere love in front of me. I didn't cherish it. I regretted it when I lost it. There is nothing more painful than this in the world."

Zhizunbao said the same line twice, once when Zixia held her neck with a sword, and once before putting on the golden hoop.

The first time he lied, he shed tears.

But the second time was very sincere, but only expressionless.

"If God can give me another chance, I will say three words to that girl: I love you. If I have to add a time limit to this love, I hope it will be... 1 years."

There was silence in the theater.

Everyone was gripped by this line.

Especially the young girls, their eyes are full of intoxication, and they seem to be immersed in the romance of this line.

And older people, including film critics and media, felt helpless and sad at the moment they saw Supreme Treasure wearing the golden hoop.

What they see is not only Supreme Treasure, but also themselves.

The choice faced by Supreme Treasure has also happened to them.

Wearing a golden hoop cannot love you, and putting down a golden hoop cannot save you.

From this moment, tragedy was doomed.

Zixia died, and died in the hands of Monkey King.

"He looks like a dog."

Monkey King carried the stick on his back and left silently among the bustling crowd.

The film stops abruptly.

There was a long silence in the theater.

The silence was so long that Qin Muchu couldn't help turning his head.

Don't you like it?

But the moment he turned his head, thunderous applause erupted in the movie theater.

Seeing the audience applauding vigorously, Qin Muchu felt relieved.

When I turned around and wanted to celebrate with Zhou Xingxing, I found that Zhou Xingxing was still looking at the screen, and the loneliness in his eyes was clear.

The palm paused, and lightly landed on his shoulder and patted it.

For others, this is a movie, but for Zhou Xingxing, it is a memory.

By the way, why the relationship between the two friends surnamed Zhou is not going well?

……

There must be questions in the screening.

Right now, only one girl stood up to ask a question, she was quite young, probably a student of Yanying:

"I would like to ask Director Zhou Xingxing, is it the reincarnation of Supreme Treasure and Zixia who hug each other in the end? Are they still together in the end?"

Zhou Xingxing picked up the microphone and thought for a while:

"Well... I hope it's like what you said."

Although the girl did not get an affirmative answer, Zhou Xingxing had no intention of continuing to speak, so she could only return the microphone.

The staff continued to look for the next person to ask questions. There were still quite a few people raising their hands, and they were about to pick one, when suddenly the microphone was snatched from their hands.

Just about to stare, seeing that it was a beautiful girl, [-]% of her anger dissipated immediately.

"The Supreme Treasure put on the golden hoop to save Zixia, but in the end he couldn't save Zixia after wearing the golden hoop. Wasn't the golden hoop for nothing?"

Qin Muchu narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw clearly the girl standing up under the light.

Sister Shuang.

Her eyes were a little red, and there were still some tears on her face. It seemed that she had just cried miserably.

There is more than one girl who is the same as her, most of the girls in the theater are like this.

Zhou Xingxing was silent for a while, as if Zheng Shuang's words had poked a soft spot in his heart.

After a long while with a bitter smile:
"Yeah, you're right, in the end it was a waste of work."

……

"A Chinese Journey to the West" became popular, and the discussions were overwhelming.

You can see classic lines like "Love you for 1 years", "My sweetheart...", "I guessed the beginning...", "Do you need a reason to love someone..." on the Internet.

At the beginning, the students who just watched the movie posted these lines on Tieba, Tianya and other places. Netizens thought the lines were very emotional, and then forwarded them, and then naturally became popular about the source of the lines, "Journey to the West".

Although the movie has not been officially released yet, the expectations of netizens are full. Everyone knows that there is a movie called "Journey to the West" that will be released on Christmas.

If this is achieved, it can be regarded as very successful in terms of film promotion.

The rest is that the main creative team except the screenwriter will go to colleges and universities in various cities to screen, and participate in the variety shows of major TV stations to expand the publicity effect.

But Qin Muchu has entered a rare leisure time, and now he is in a state of nothing to do, living in a courtyard every day.

Listen to music every day, go online, read gossip, and occasionally pay attention to the promotion progress of "A Chinese Journey to the West".

In this way, a month passed without knowing it.

The time has come to December 12th, Christmas.

Early in the morning, the courtyard doorbell rang, accompanied by a rhythmic shout:
"Qin Muchu, Qin Muchu, open the door, don't hide inside and keep quiet, I know you're home!"

Opening the courtyard door, the girl who knocked on the door rushed in two steps, and went straight to Qin Muchu's room, as if she was coming home.

Qin Muchu shook his head speechlessly, and followed.

After entering the room with heating, Yang Mi took off the thick and bulging down jacket, revealing the khaki stand-collar sweater inside.

The sweater fits snugly and frames a choppy figure.

"The water is cold, go heat something hot."

Yang Mi raised her hand and lifted the kettle.

Qin Muchu's face was dark and he didn't answer.

"Go, what are you doing?"

Seeing that Qin Muchu hadn't picked up the water bottle for a long time, Yang Mi looked up at him, shaking the hand holding the water bottle.

"How can you be so arrogant? Ah? Yang Xiaomi!"

Qin Muchu didn't care about the kettle, and directly pinched Yang Mi's face with his hands, and tugged.

He came to his house early in the morning and instructed him to serve tea and pour water.

Simply deceiving!
"Hey, I attended the premiere of "A Chinese Journey to the West" last night. Such a freshman star appreciated me, what's wrong with taking a sip of water from you?"

Yang Mi knocked off Qin Muchu's hand pinching his face, stretched her neck and patted her chest, and looked at Qin Muchu with a look of reproach—you are so stingy.

Qin Muchu pouted, but still took the kettle to boil water.

Yang Mi's girl has become very swollen recently, and "Wang Zhaojun", as a major CCTV drama, has brought her a lot of fame.

The number of people in "Yang Mi Bar" has skyrocketed, confirming its reputation as a "beauty in ancient costume".

The media also praised her as a powerful faction, the rare acting florets of a new generation of actresses, and by the way, she stepped on a wave of Liu Xiqian...

On Yang Mi's side, she was humble to Liu Xiqian and encouraged her:
Come on Sissi, your acting skills are also very good, but you haven't had a chance to prove yourself yet.

While chattering at Qin Muchu, his tail was raised to the sky.

"Xiao Qinzi, why didn't you go to the premiere last night?"

Yang Mi followed Qin Muchu, who was boiling water, to the kitchen. Seeing him filling the kettle with water, she stretched out her hand and splashed some water on his face.

"What am I going to do? It's enough for the director and actors to be here. I'm just a screenwriter, so what's the point of joining in the fun... If you play again, I'll throw you at you!"

Qin Muchu picked up the kettle, as if to splash her.

Yang Mi snorted coldly, took two steps back and didn't play tricks on Qin Muchu again.

"You're just lazy and making excuses."

"Well, you're right."

Qin Muchu put the kettle on the stove, turned on the fire, turned around and pushed Yang Mi's shoulder out of the kitchen.

Sit back on the sofa, browse the news above again, and ask:

"What am I doing here early in the morning?"

"It's okay, so I can't find you?"

Yang Mi choked subconsciously, but quickly stated the purpose of this trip:
"The company wants me to play "Dream of Red Mansions", do you think I can take this role?"

"A Dream of Red Mansions?"

Qin Muchu looked away from the computer and frowned,

"Want to dive into your part?"

"can you speak!"

Yang Mi angrily gave Qin Muchu a look, and said:
"Now the director of this play is replaced by Sister Hong, so there are no such things."

"Has the investor changed? Have the actors who invested in it been replaced?"

Yang Mi asked the two questions directly.

"It seems that I just changed the director team, the investors should not have changed, and the actors seem to have not changed much..."

Yang Mi also knew what Qin Muchu meant, but she still had a little fantasy:
"But the director has become Sister Hong."

Qin Muchu shook his head:

"As long as the investor remains the same, those things will still happen. If the director becomes your boss, at most it will protect you from being forced."

Yang Mi fell silent, frowning and not speaking.

Seeing this, Qin Muchu also knew that Yang Mi didn't want to let go of this resource. After all, this is "Dream of Red Mansions", a top TV resource.

So he asked again:

"Did Director Li promise you what role to play?"

"No, Sister Hong said that she would reconsider the role candidates, but...if I play it, it should be Xue Baochai if it's not Lin Daiyu."

Like a weak woman in ancient times, Yang Mi gently slid the back of her left hand across her right cheek, revealing a reserved smile.

It's beautiful, and the temperament is well grasped.

Just ...

Qin Muchu's eyes moved down to where they shouldn't be.

A "sick beauty" like Sister Lin should not have such exaggerated pectoralis major, but Xue Baochai is famous for her plump beauty, which may be suitable for Yang Mi.

"Where are you looking, I'll poke you blind!"

Yang Mi became fierce in an instant, stretching out two fingers in a gesture of forking.

Qin Muchu touched his nose in embarrassment and looked away.

Recently, he seems to be a bit overwhelmed by beauty.

Young people are full of firepower, don't do handicrafts, and don't have a girlfriend.

So, is it time to fall in love...

"My suggestion is not to act in "A Dream of Red Mansions", if there are other good scripts that can be acted in."

Qin Muchu came back to his senses and made a conclusion.

"Hey, don't tell me, I really have a movie contract."

Yang Mi leaned over to Qin Muchu on the sofa:
"I met Tang Ren's Mrs. Cai last night, and she invited me to play Tang Xuejian in "Sword and Sword III".

I just don't know how the script is. Mr. Cai said that he sent the script to my email today, but he doesn't know if he sent it or not. "

With that said, Yang Mi stood up and pushed Qin Muchu away from the computer:

"Let me check my mailbox."

Qin Muchu reluctantly stepped aside and sat beside him.

But when he heard that Tang Ren invited Yang Mi to play "The Three Immortals", he suggested in his heart that Yang Mi should do it.

After all, Tang Xuejianhui is a classic character created by Yang Mi.

"Ah, it's here. Let's see how the script is."

Yang Mi cheered and pulled Qin Muchu over again.

The script is not long and not complete. It only has a general introduction of the characters and the direction of the plot, and there are a few scenes that Tang Xue met. It took about ten minutes to finish watching.

"It's not bad. To you, it's your true self. "Xian Yi" is so popular, and "Xian San" also has its own discussion. This drama should be a hit." Qin Muchu commented.

"Okay, I'll think about it."

Yang Mi nodded.

In fact, after Qin Muchu said this, she already had a tendency in her heart.

But she is just an artist, and she is not so independent in many cases.

If you don't act in this company's play, you have to find a suitable reason for acting in another company's play...

……

"Has the box office come out, has it come out?"

The hour hand on the wall passed twelve o'clock, Yang Mi couldn't wait to ask.

"Not yet, it should be soon."

"I will send a message when it comes out."

In the living room, there are three women and one man sitting.

It was Zeng Li, Zhou Huimin, Yang Mi and Qin Muchu.

There are many pots placed in the house. Although most of them are not blooming in winter, there are still some evergreen species that are full of green.

With such a decoration, it is naturally not the courtyard where Qin Muchu lives, but this is Zeng Li's home.

It is also a courtyard house, much smaller than Qin Muchu's, with only one entrance, three wing rooms and a courtyard.

About four hundred square meters.

It's too big to live alone.

The yard is well-maintained, and there are many kinds of green plants. It can be seen that the owner has put a lot of thought into it.

Tonight is the time when the box office of "A Chinese Journey to the West" will be announced on the first day, and several people gathered together to wait for the box office results.

The reason why he wasn't in Qin Muchu's courtyard was because the box office came out after [-] o'clock in the evening, so he must be waiting there and resting there.

Although Qin Muchu's courtyard was larger and more convenient for people to live in, but Qin Muchu's wing room was only cleaned because he often lived in it.

The rest of the wing rooms have not been cleaned for a long time, and it takes a lot of effort to clean them if they want to live in them.

Just sleep for one night, it's not worth the effort.

He simply came to Zengli's yard.

Her yard is small, but every room has been cleaned.

Qin Muchu's phone vibrated suddenly, he picked it up, and glanced at the message.

"The box office is out on the first day."

He looked at the three women.

"How? How much?" Yang Mi asked eagerly.

It's a bit like the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry.

Zeng Li and Zhou Huimin who participated in "A Chinese Journey to the West" were very calm, but she, an "irrelevant person", was very concerned.

"It's quite high, 100 million."

Qin Muchu said something in a flat tone, but Yang Mi exclaimed in exchange.

"Twenty-five million!!!"

Yang Mi covered her mouth.

Although Zeng Li and Zhou Huimin didn't make a sound, they clenched their fists excitedly.

Twenty one million!

What is this concept?
To put it simply, another movie with over [-] million yuan was born.

Even if a little more daring.

In July, "Transformers 1" had a box office of 2000 million on the first day of 2.81, and finally gained [-] million at the box office.

Then "Journey to the West"...

If "A Chinese Journey to the West" follows the path of "The Gift from Room No. [-]" and the box office is getting higher day by day, then...

This is impossible.

The publicity of "A Chinese Journey to the West" can be described as overwhelming, leaving no room for it. Not surprisingly, the box office on the first day is not the same, even if it is not the highest day.

"Sister Li, Sister Huimin, congratulations!"

Yang Mi squinted her eyes with a smile, and hugged Zeng Li and Zhou Huimin, enjoying themselves.

There are always people who break the atmosphere.

"Okay, the results are out, I'm going to sleep."

Qin Muchu stood up and yawned.

"Is that the room?"

He pointed to a room and asked Zeng Li.

"Hey, 100 million! Why didn't you react at all!" Yang Mi said angrily.

There are only a few movies in Tianchao with over [-] million yuan.

Although Qin Muchu is not the director of this movie, as an investor of the movie, how much is the score?
It doesn't matter if you make money, isn't this pretending to be a crime?

Poverty made Yang Mi grit her teeth with hatred.

"I have a reaction, very happy, haha."

Qin Muchu forced a smile out of perfunctory—only for a second.

Is he happy that "A Chinese Journey to the West" has achieved such a good result?

Of course happy.

But when it comes to ecstasy, that's not enough.

The reason why he asked Zhou Xingxing to make this movie was more for his feelings.

Such a classic movie that is still worth recalling after many years should appear in this world.

As for the box office...

Probably because he had high expectations for "A Chinese Journey to the West", so he felt that no matter how high the box office performance was, it was justified.

This movie deserves its high box office.

If the film is made ten years later, Qin Muchu believes that it can earn several billion at the box office.

But he could only keep these words in his heart and could not tell others, so he asked Zeng Li again:

"Is that the room?"

"you……"

Yang Mi wanted to say something else, but was hugged by Zeng Li:
"It's not the first day you know him. Did you see how excited he was when "The Gift from Room [-]" came out at the box office last year?"

Only then did Yang Mi calm down.

Yes.

Qin Muchu is such a person, if he had just danced and danced, it would not be him.

but.

Normal people should be dancing.

"It's that room. The quilt and quilt cover are all new. Do you want a high or low pillow, but mine is low."

With that said, Zeng Li stood up, ready to take Qin Muchu to the room to have a look.

But just as she was about to move, Yang Mi grabbed her hand.

"Sleep like this? Why don't we celebrate? Then what are we doing together? Sister Huimin, don't you think so?"

"Yes."

Zhou Huimin nodded, then looked at Zeng Li again:

"Sister Li, I brought red wine here, do you want to drink some, it's good for beauty before going to bed."

"Do you drink red wine?"

Zeng Li was a little moved.

Going to sleep right now is a bit... awkward.

It's like the athlete won the No.1 result and no prize was awarded.

"Okay, drink red wine, I'll open it!"

Yang Mi jumped up from the sofa, and Zhou Huimin followed closely.

Seeing this situation, Zeng Li didn't say no.

Looking at Qin Muchu:
"Would you like a drink?"

"No, I'm handsome enough, you should drink more beauty treatments." Qin Muchu resolutely refused.

Since he knew that he couldn't drink alcohol, he could basically avoid touching it.

Zeng Li rolled his eyes, slapped Qin Muchu lightly with his palm, and said angrily:

"Beautiful!"

After speaking, he went to the kitchen to get a wine glass.

Yang Mi and Zhou Huimin came back with red wine, and when they heard what Qin Muchu said, they also scolded:
"shameless."

"You gave up on treatment."

Saying that, Yang Mi stuffed the red wine into Qin Muchu's arms:
"Open."

The cork of red wine is more difficult to pull out, and it is a bit difficult for boys to open it, let alone girls.

Qin Muchu took the red wine, inserted the corkscrew into the cork, and kept turning it. With a sound of "Bo", the red wine was opened.

Zeng Li also brought the wine glass.

Four are goblets for drinking red wine.

Everyone poured half a glass, and a bottle of red wine bottomed out.

"Congratulations to "A Westward Journey" with 2100 million on its first day! I wish the box office of "A Westward Journey" will continue to rise, and Sister Li and Sister Huimin will be very popular!"

Yang Mi raised her glass.

Several people also clinked glasses with her.

Of course, not dry.

The three daughters, Yang Mi, chattered affectionately as sisters, while Qin Muchu listened beside them.

The three girls chatted more happily, and soon the red wine was finished.

"One more bottle!"

Zhou Huimin held up his drained cup, his face slightly drunk.

"I'll get it!"

Yang Mi got up immediately.

Qin Muchu stretched out his hand and wanted to say enough. Although he didn't understand red wine, he heard that it had great stamina.

But Yang Mi has already gone to get the wine.

"It's okay, at home and not outside, drink as much as you can."

Zeng Li saw Qin Muchu's concerns.

She was leaning on the sofa at this time, with a slight smile on her face and happiness in her eyes.

Fine.

Qin Muchu thought so too.

Anyway, it's not outside, what can happen if you drink too much.
