During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 777 If you don't get drunk, how will your sisters have a chance?
As Wei Jin said, with all the right timing, location, and people in the right place, "Fast & Furious 7" is indeed unstoppable.

After raking in 3.62 million yuan at the box office on its opening day, its box office performance continued to be overwhelming, even though the second day was a weekday.

The second day it slashed 2.03 million, and the third day it slashed 1.98 million!
Moreover, the proportion of the overall market not only did not decrease at all, but increased by two percentage points, reaching over 92%!

The entire film market was not only littered with domestic films, but also saw imported films like "Kingsman: The Secret Service" completely crushed.

The movies scheduled to be released during the May Day holiday are all trembling with fear, which has led to a further increase in publicity efforts, with various press releases flooding the market!
Wei Jin ignored all of this, focusing instead on enjoying the sweet filming with Jing Tian.

Thanks to Chen Xi's arrangements, the scenes in Sanya went by quickly, and today we've reached the last two beach scenes.

Filming this kind of scene isn't difficult; the challenge lies in clearing the set and getting the extras, since this is a tourist paradise with a huge number of people.

In other words, April is not exactly peak travel season, otherwise Chen Xi would have been creating trouble for herself if she had dared to choose this place!

However, after filming the main wedding scene tomorrow, we'll probably be able to move back to Beijing.

The remaining scenes in the capital city will likely be completed in less than a week by Wei Jin.

"Attention all units, Scene 67 of 'Love Like a Bouquet,' First Shot, First Scene, Thirty-Second Countdown!"

"action!"

The following day, "The Bouquet" filmed its final scene in Sanya.

Chen Xi directly contacted a wedding planning company and rented a wedding venue in advance.

While the crew was setting up, Wei Jin browsed some industry news.

He noticed that "Tiny Times 4" had passed censorship, and Guo Jingming immediately chose July 9th, the summer movie season, just one day after "Seattle 2".

"Damn, this little dwarf is pretty shrewd."

Wei Jin muttered to himself, knowing perfectly well that Guo Xiaosi was planning something.

Although choosing this release date will make the competition more intense, the reputation of the "Tiny Times" series has completely collapsed after three consecutive films with scores below 5. Not to mention ordinary viewers, even fans can't squeeze much profit out of it.

In this situation, piggybacking on the positive word-of-mouth of Xue Xiaolu and Yang Mi's sequel could bring some attention to "Tiny Times 4," which might be more advantageous than choosing to release it in another time slot.

Of course, this is a common practice in the industry. The original "Guan Yun Chang" also tried to piggyback on the success of "Ip Man 3" in the same way, although the result was not very good.

"Attention all units, one minute countdown, get ready!"

Lu Yang's instructions pulled Wei Jin back from the news. After handing his phone to his assistant, he began to rehearse his positions under the direction of the executive director.

"action!"

The footage shows a lively and joyous wedding ceremony, with everyone's face beaming with happiness.

Only Wei Jin, who plays the male lead, seemed preoccupied, saying to his friend, "I'm planning to break up with Xiao Wen."

The actor playing the male lead's best friend is Yin Zheng, who was recently signed by the company. He doesn't have a wide range of roles right now, and most of the time he plays minor roles in various dramas to get his face known.

I had the opportunity to appear in a Wei-Jin film, and I was very enthusiastic about it.

In another scene, Jing Tian says to Li Chun, who plays her best friend, "I plan to break up with Xiao Yong."

The camera interweaves shots, and the two people, whose relationship has already developed a rift, finally reveal their innermost thoughts to the audience in this ingenious way.

“We don’t communicate at all now.”

"We can't even have an argument."

"There are no feelings left."

"But I don't know how to break up with him."

"If you've only been dating for a few months, you can just say you want to break up."

"But we've been talking for almost five years, like..."

"I broke up with him after the wedding."

Then, the camera pans to the church doors, which open, and a newlywed couple with beaming smiles walk out.

Everyone present was smiling and offering their blessings, including the male and female leads.

But when the camera cut to a close-up, Wei Jin looked haggard, and Jing Tian was forcing a smile.

"But in the end, I want to say goodbye to him/her with a smile."

"Crack!"

The filming in Sanya was now complete, and the crew didn't delay, rushing back to Beijing that same day.

After all, the filming in the previous days was very relaxed, and we had already done all the fun things we wanted to do.

Of course, the main reason was that Wei Jin was going to attend the celebration banquet for "Gone Girl".

After all, she missed the premiere press conference. If she doesn't show up again this time, Sister Yuanyuan will be unhappy.

Although the celebration banquet wasn't a grand affair, given Shanhe Media's influence, countless people still came to show their support, making the banquet hall of the Royal Dynasty Hotel a star-studded affair.

But the most dazzling one has to be today's leading lady, Gao Yuanyuan. She wore a black floor-length dress with red-soled black high heels, which accentuated her curves.

Her slightly wavy hair, paired with bright red lips and diamond platinum earrings, gave her a queen-like aura.

Especially when she stood in the middle of the stage with Wei Jin, who was wearing the same black fitted shirt and looked exceptionally tall, and together they smashed the number ice sculpture, she was dazzlingly bright.

Countless female celebrities who came to show their support felt heartbroken and bitter, and some were even driven mad with jealousy.

Because of the film "Gone Girl", Gao Yuanyuan not only won the Berlin Film Festival Best Actress award, but also made a fortune!
Based on a 43% box office revenue share, the production company's share of the box office revenue is as high as 300 million, plus more than 60 million US dollars for overseas copyrights, as well as various miscellaneous advertising, online broadcasting rights, etc.

Gao Yuanyuan, who owns 40% of the investment, has earned at least 300 million yuan from this round.

Even the top-tier, highest-earning stars in the industry would need two years to earn that amount, and they would have to not eat or drink!
If looks could kill, Gao Yuanyuan on stage would have been riddled with holes long ago!
During the cocktail party, the atmosphere was lively with toasts and laughter.

Wei Jin, who had been keeping a low profile for a long time, was naturally the darling of the event, with many celebrities coming over to toast, congratulate, and get acquainted with him.

As for the cast and crew of "Gone Girl," it goes without saying that every actor seemed to be doing their utmost to deepen their relationship with Boss Wei.

Wei Jin accepted all offers without hesitation. After all, his drinking capacity was undeniable, and he wasn't afraid even if all of them attacked him at once!
But this put Lei Datou in a difficult position. With the director and boss being so generous, how could he, as the male lead, refuse?

He could only raise his glass repeatedly amidst everyone's blessings, to the point that he crawled under the table before the halfway point was even over.

Reyizha, who plays the second female lead, has an amazing capacity for alcohol; she's truly a heroine.

Many people at the table were joking that she and Lei Jiayin played siblings in the drama, but the difference in their drinking capacity was too great. They probably got switched at birth in the hospital.
"Yuanyuan, why are you only drinking this much and then stopping?"

Yu Feihong, who made a cameo appearance, was also here today. Seeing that her best friend hadn't drunk much, she couldn't help but feel curious. The slightly tipsy Da Meiyuan waved her hand, "I'm not drinking anymore. How am I going to take care of him if he gets drunk later?"

"."

Yu Feihong rolled her eyes. Wei Jin's drinking capacity doesn't require your help, does it? But if you don't get drunk, how will I have a chance?
But Yu Feihong was overthinking it. Now that more and more women were eyeing her, Boss Wei was starting to become more cautious.

Old Zhu had to stand guard outside the toilet door even when someone went to use it, so that no one could easily take advantage of the situation. After all, if they were caught, the family would be in turmoil.

Besides, there are plenty of opportunities to hunt for food in the wild; why take on such a difficult challenge?

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Wei Jin, with the staggering Da Meiyuan in his arms, returned to the villa in Yanjiao, amidst Yu Feihong's disappointed gaze.

Wei Jin originally wanted to experience the gentleness of the two older sisters, but unfortunately, Sister Li is currently unavailable, so he can only trouble Da Mei Yuan instead.

Fortunately, the gorgeous dress had a certain effect, keeping Wei Jin in high spirits.

At that moment, he was seen standing in front of the French windows in his study, admiring the bright moon outside.
"Produced exclusively by Universal Pictures and directed by James Wan, the Hollywood blockbuster 'Furious 7' has broken the 10 billion mark at the box office in just five days, reaching 10.86 billion yuan, a truly unstoppable momentum!"

"Six months later, the record of 'Operation Mekong' breaking 10 billion yuan in 6 days has been broken again, and the top spot on the box office chart is in jeopardy."

"The epic war film 'The Legend of the White Ghost,' a Sino-foreign co-production jointly produced by Yunnan Film Group, Max Media, and Xiangchao Culture, directed by Nick Powell, and starring Nicolas Cage, was forcibly pulled from theaters last night, ultimately grossing only 2086 million yuan, resulting in heavy losses for the film's producers!"

"The film 'Ever Since We Love,' directed by Li Yu and produced by Laurel Films and co-produced by Huayi Brothers and Tingdong Pictures, was pulled from theaters early and ultimately grossed 1.38 million yuan."

"With the domestic films 'The Two-Tailed Bus' and 'The Storm Riders' being pulled from theaters one after another, the production companies have suffered huge losses."

After a night of escapades, the entire film industry was once again shaken, but amidst this shock, there seemed to be a touch of numbness, because it had all been expected!

After all, with "Furious 7" consistently grossing over 1.5 million yuan a day, breaking 10 billion yuan is just a piece of cake.

Under its scythe of exploitation, it was inevitable that domestic films would be utterly defeated, with bloodshed ensuing.

No one expected that China Film Group would add fuel to the fire at this time.

"The Marvel exclusive superhero blockbuster 'Avengers: Age of Ultron,' starring Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, and others, is officially scheduled for release on May 12th!"

An official announcement caused an uproar in the film and television industry, especially for the producers of the film scheduled for release on May Day, who were devastated!

With wolves in front and tigers behind, how are domestic films supposed to survive?!
Right now, countless people are missing Han Sanping. Given the domineering nature of Zuo Shandiao, perhaps these two blockbusters should have clashed head-on in April?

Wei Jin ignored the turmoil in the industry and remained focused on filming "Bouquet".

Today's scene is the one filming after the wedding, where the male and female leads finally decide to end their relationship.

It was still the same little restaurant where I first confessed my feelings, with a slightly retro style, fresh and elegant.

However, this time, the two of them dressed very differently from before.

Wei Jin wore a white shirt, a typical office worker's outfit; while Jing Tian wore a red dress, looking somewhat fresh and artistic.

The two sat facing each other, looking back at photos of happy moments they had shared, but their smiles seemed forced.

It's like being the most familiar strangers; you have so much to say to each other, but the words just won't come out.

The tension and helplessness were palpable in their eyes as they glanced at each other, neither daring to linger.

Wei Jin touched his nose, his eyes darting around, "Let's... talk."

"Let's talk."

"Actually, we can talk about it tomorrow."

"Let's talk today."

"Now?" Wei Jin's expression seemed pleading.

"Let's talk now."

Jing Tian said calmly, "I had a very happy day today too."

"It's been four years, and I've had a very happy four years. So much time has passed and a lot has happened. For me, all of this so far... I still have a photo on my phone that you've definitely never seen before."

Wei Jin finally made up his mind, but when he got to the point of speaking, he couldn't bring himself to say it. He took out his phone and started looking through his photo album.

"Xiaoyong, thank you."

Jing Tian smiled lightly and continued, "I will only keep the happy memories and treasure them in my heart. You should do the same."

As for the house, I will move out. My salary can't cover the rent there. Whether you want to stay or not is up to you.

I wanted to take Grey with me, but I guess you wouldn't be willing. We can discuss it later; maybe Grey has its own ideas too.

Grey Grey is a cat that the male and female protagonists adopted when they first started dating, and it is also a witness to their love.

In fact, Jing Tian herself brought the cat to the film set.

Like Liu Yifei, she loves animals. Besides the adorable Garfield cat, she also has a cute little dog at home.

"Xiaowen, I don't want to break up with you."

Wei Jin finally expressed his feelings, tilting his head back and blinking, trying hard not to let the tears fall, but his eyes were already red. "I don't think there's any need to break up. Let's get married."

Wei Jin's voice trembled as he lowered his head and rubbed his eyes, "After we get married, let's continue living together like this."

Jing Tian shook her head. "It's because you were very happy today that you're thinking this way now. You'll soon be back to how you were before."

"It's okay if things stay the same. What couple isn't like that? Even if there's no love left between them, it's still okay."

Wei Jin was making a final attempt to salvage this love that was gradually drifting apart, using kinship and the bonds of children.

However, the female protagonist cannot accept that her "ideal" has been compressed and her love is incomplete. She is unwilling to continue like this and wear down the last bit of beauty in her heart. Her attitude is very firm.

At this moment, a young couple entered the restaurant, played by Cheng Yi and Chen Yuqi respectively.

Their slightly "awkward" small talk reminded the male and female protagonists of their first date.

Especially when they saw the white sneakers on the young couple's feet, Wei Jin and Jing Tian were completely captivated.

Hearing the two of them pouring out their longing for each other, Wei Jin pursed his lips, while Jing Tian's tears welled up in her eyes.

Scenes of their first meeting and falling in love flashed through their minds, and tears welled up in their eyes without them even realizing it.

When the young couple exchanged their favorite books, the female protagonist broke down in tears, covered her red lips, and ran out of the restaurant.

A love affair that blossoms like a bouquet of flowers will eventually come to an end.
