Huayu Entertainment: Who let him be the director!

On January 1, "A Lonely Man's Journey" and "A Chinese Odyssey", both of which were involved in the "Troy War", were taken off the screen one after another.

Among them, "A Solo Journey for Thousands of Miles" earned a total box office of 3000 million.

Considering that this is an art film, the results are actually quite good.

Master Zhang can be said to have handed in a satisfactory transcript.

So what about "A Chinese Odyssey"?

The total box office reached 4900 million.

At first glance, it seems pretty good, but if you consider the investment of up to 5000 million, it is undoubtedly a huge loss.

But the same is true for "A Solo Journey". Although this movie is an art film, the investment is not low.

Reached 6000 million!
Add to that the previous "If Love", which means that all the films participating in the highly anticipated "Troy War" in the industry are actually losing money.

Against the backdrop of these blockbusters, "The Hearing Girl" stands out even more.

After all, the investment in these blockbusters is much higher than that of "The Hearing Girl", but the box office is less than half of them.

Even just a fraction.

It's even more embarrassing.

Many people in the industry lamented that it is not so easy to shoot a blockbuster movie.

Especially these days, the number of big screens is very limited, and the box office ceiling is locked there.

The box office has reached its limit of 200 to 300 million, it can’t go any higher.

Calculating from this perspective, it is actually possible to make a blockbuster with an investment of 1 million yuan.

But if the cost is higher, the risk will be too great.

Unless he has overseas influence like Jackie Chan, he can reap overseas box office revenue, or sell copyrights or something.

But how many movies can do this?

"Ladies and gentlemen, today I have a special happy news to tell you. The 2006 Yahu Search Creativity Festival has officially begun. I would like to introduce..."

The Yahu Star Search event mentioned by Wang Zhongjun earlier opened grandly, and the scene was spectacular.

Internet tycoon Ma Yun attended the event in person, and Wang Zhongjun was also present.

In addition, two top directors Feng Xiaogang and Chen Shishi, as well as the famous producer and director Zhang Jizhong also made an appearance.

Although Zhang Jizhong's overall status is not as high as Chen and Feng, he is definitely a top star in the TV drama circle.

This lineup can be called luxurious, and it has attracted the attention of many people in the circle.

"Boss Wang, I heard that Director Zhou Qing was also on the list of directors you had planned to invite, right?"

During the interview, the reporter also specifically mentioned this incident, and Zhou Qing was brought up again to gain popularity.

"Yes, I have actually invited Director Zhou, but unfortunately Director Zhou is busy filming Painted Skin and has no energy to participate in our activities."

Wang Zhongjun spoke the truth, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, he also mentioned "Painted Skin", which contributed a wave of traffic to "Painted Skin".

Zhou Qing didn't care much about this talent show, he was just thinking about one thing.

Should we sign Zhao Liying?

After Zhao Liying won the championship in Feng Xiaogang's group, she joined Huayi, but she played supporting roles for five years.

It was not until 11 when she played in "New My Fair Princess" that she came to prominence, then became popular in "Legend of Lu Zhen" in 13, and finally achieved great fame in "The Journey of Flower" in 15.

Generally speaking, if you are willing to endure hardships and work hard, you have the potential to become a big hit.

The most important thing is that there will be no house collapse in the future.

From all aspects, it meets Zhou Qing's signing standards.

But there is no need to rush about this matter. The talent show has just begun and Zhao Liying has not yet entered the public eye.

It would be more reasonable to wait until the event lasts for a while, or at least until Zhao Liying makes her debut before contacting her.

Considering that he would be very busy in the next two months, in order to prevent himself from forgetting about this matter, Zhou Qing called Director Chen over.

"Keep an eye on Yahu's event and pay attention to the more popular contestants. Give me a list before the preliminary round ends."

Zhou Qing gave these instructions to the other party.

"Director Zhou, are you planning to sign some more artists?"

Director Chen was not stupid either, and he immediately guessed Zhou Qing's intention.

"I have this idea, but I still have to see if there are any good seedlings."

Zhou Qing naturally did not deny it.

"Understood, Director Zhou."

Director Chen responded and left.

On January 1, the much-anticipated blockbuster movie "Huo Yuanjia" was released, sparking a new wave of movie-watching craze.

It can only be said that Li Lianjie's box office appeal is indeed not to be underestimated. It is said that the publicity and promotion of this movie only cost 500 million.

But it earned 800 million at the box office on the first day, which can be said to be very strong.

If this trend continues, there will be no problem in breaking the 100 million mark.

However, judging from the feedback from some viewers after the screening, the reputation of "Huo Yuanjia" is slightly divided, which may affect the box office trend in the future.

"Fortunately, 'Hearing Girl' was released ahead of schedule on New Year's Day. It was a wise decision."

Zhou Qing was secretly complaining in his heart.

When "The Hearing Girl" was released, the daily box office of "The Promise" had dropped to less than 300 million.

The threat to "The Hearing Girl" is really reduced to the lowest level, much lower than the 800 million of "Huo Yuanjia".

"One, two, three, let's go!"

At the training center of the "Painted Skin" crew, with the efforts of the martial artists not far away, Zhu Yawen, wearing a wire suit, flew into the air in a flash.

Zhu Yawen also performed some cool moves during the ascent and even ran around on the roof.

If you ignore the ropes, he would be like a master who can climb walls and fly over rooftops.

"Old Zhu, this is good, it looks pretty good."

Zhou Qing couldn't help but smile approvingly.

"It was Yawen's first time filming a martial arts scene, and he was able to train the wirework to this level in just a few days. It was not easy, and he is very hardworking."

Zhao Wenzhuo who was beside him couldn't help but say this to Zhou Qing, his words were full of praise.

Everyone knows that Zhu Yawen is Director Zhou’s classmate, so naturally their attitude is different.

"Wire, I started hanging since my freshman year."

Liu Yifei proudly showed off to Zhou Qing.

When she was filming "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", she did hang on wires.

Although there are not many, they are the result of hard training.

"Yes, Sissi is the best."

Zhou Qing just laughed.

The girl subconsciously wanted to flirt with Zhou Qing, but considering that there were many other people at the scene, she restrained herself.

"How about it, Qingzi, I am now a master too."

After Zhu Yawen landed, he started to show off in front of Zhou Qing.

"You should be more modest. Didn't you see that Senior Brother Hu Jun didn't even bother to talk to you? Besides, Xixi has been trying to do this for several years."

Zhou Qing looked down on Zhu Yawen, and a burst of laughter broke out at the scene.

Although no one said it, everyone looked at Zhu Yawen with envy.

The fact that Director Zhou can tease and joke with me like this shows that the relationship between them is really good.

"What's this? Director Zhou, watch me."

Zhou Xun was also eager to try, and hooked his finger at Zhao Wenzhuo, "Come on, Pang Yong, let's have a fight and show us your real kung fu."

"Brother Xun, are you getting carried away?" Zhou Qing was speechless.

If Zhao Wenzhuo used real kung fu, wouldn't you cry for two hours with one punch?
"I don't need my real kung fu to deal with you."

Zhao Wenzhuo also smiled, stepped forward and gestured twice with Zhou Xun, which was also very vivid.

So does everyone else.

Zhou Qing briefly reviewed the results and found that no one was lagging behind and everyone was working very hard.

Zhou Qing was very satisfied.

"Everyone has worked hard during this period of training. I now officially declare that the training camp is over. Everyone should pack up and go home to prepare for the New Year."

Zhou Qing made this decision very happily.

Although the legal holiday is the 28th, that day is New Year's Eve, so Zhou Qing will not really wait until that day to let everyone go.

Now that everyone's training was going smoothly and the script reading was almost done, Zhou Qing was happy to have two days off in advance.

As for the start time after the New Year, Zhou Qing set it on February 2th, so that everyone can spend the New Year at home.

"Director Zhou is awesome!"

Everyone in the crew was quite happy to hear this arrangement.

"Sissi, see you next year."

"See you next year."

After seeing Liu Yifei off, Zhou Qing returned to the studio to make some final arrangements and also boarded a plane back to his hometown.

"Qingzi, why did you come back so late this year?"

The mother was naturally very happy to see her son come back, but she couldn't help but complain a few words.

"Mom, there are a lot of things to do this year. I'm busy now, and I haven't finished yet."

Zhou Qing explained a few words for his mother.

"My son is a famous director now, so how can he not be busy? Being busy is a good thing."

Dad said a few words on Zhou Qing's behalf.

"Mom is right. No matter how busy I am, I should come back early."

Zhou Qing agreed with his mother with a smile.

"I'm worried that you're working too hard. Is the director so busy that he only comes back at the end of the year?"

My mother muttered a few words, and then together with my father, they caught up with Zhou Qing and asked him about his well-being.

"Qingzi, your movie has grossed over 100 million this time?"

After chatting for a while, my father asked about this matter with great interest, and it was obvious that he was still very excited.

This matter spread throughout the surrounding villages, and many people came to inquire about the situation.

"It's all in the newspapers and on the Internet, how could it be fake? Qingzi is really amazing."

When my mother said this, she couldn't help but reveal an expression of pride.

I have to say, it feels really good to see all the neighbors are shocked by my son and worship him.

"This is all old news. The revenue exceeded 19 million on the th."

Zhou Qing showed off a lot in front of his parents.

"Really? My son is amazing!"

Dad couldn't help but give Zhou Qing a thumbs up.

The family of three chatted like this, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

"By the way, Mom and Dad, I bought a house in Beijing. Once it's renovated, you'll have a place to stay in Beijing."

Zhou Qing also told the two elders about this important matter.

Buying a house is a big deal these days, and both parents are very concerned about this matter. They caught Zhou Qing and asked him a lot of questions.

When he learned that the house Zhou Qing bought had three floors, was over 700 square meters, and cost nearly 20 million yuan, he was so shocked that he was speechless for ten seconds.

"Oh my god, a house that big, isn't that the big villa on TV?"

My mother gasped and she hasn’t recovered yet.

"Isn't that a big villa? Our son can actually afford a villa."

Dad also looked amazed.

He really couldn't imagine that something that only appeared in TV dramas would now be bought by his son.

"But it doesn't need to be that big, right? How much did you say? You can do anything else with that much money. Can you live in such a big house?"

My mother couldn't change her old way of thinking for a while, and started to feel bad about money again.

“How much does it cost to renovate a house this big?”

My dad also asked with a twitching mouth, mainly because he really hasn't recovered yet.

"I plan to dress up nicely, about three million or so."

Zhou Qing gave this answer.

Once again, my parents were choked.

More than three million?

That’s enough to buy several houses, okay?
However, despite being shocked, the two elders were mainly happy for Zhou Qing.

It’s great that my son is so successful.

The release of "Huo Yuanjia" still caused a great impact on "The Hearing Girl".

The daily box office, which originally had more than 3.5 million, was almost halved, leaving only 2 million.

But for Zhou Qing, it doesn’t really matter, because “The Hearing Girl” will be finished in five days.

Even if there is an impact, how long can it last?

What's more, the total box office of "The Hearing Girl" has now reached 1.25 million, surpassing "A World Without Thieves"!
Naturally, the media launched another wave of harsh praise. Feng Xiaogang was being dragged down and it was certain that he must feel uncomfortable.

As for Zhou Qing, needless to say, he was very happy.

"Happy New Year, Director Zhou."

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year."

"Director Zhou, happy New Year to you and your family."

"Thank you, and happy new year to you too."

Zhou Qing is busier during this year's Spring Festival than last year. In addition to some New Year's greetings, many people also called to congratulate him.

After all, the box office of "Hearing Girl" was really a hit.

Not only people in the circle, but also neighbors, relatives and friends of all kinds, also came to visit.

As a result, even though Zhou Qing was on vacation, he was still busier than at work.

Even to talk and chat with my parents, I have to wait until the evening.

Although my mom and dad were helpless about this, they also felt very happy and excited.

No matter what, this shows that my son is a successful person, otherwise why would so many people come to admire him.

On February 2, "The Hearing Girl", which had been released for a month, was taken off the screen, and the total box office was quickly reported.

1.34 million.

"Zhou Qing's film "Hearing Girl" was released and earned 1.34 million yuan at the box office, surpassing Feng Xiaogang's "A World Without Thieves."

"With a box office of 1.34 million yuan, The Hearing Girl has created a box office miracle of making a small profit with a big return. Director Zhou has succeeded again."

"Director Zhou Qing's fourth film has once again achieved great success, with the total box office of "Hearing Girl" reaching an astonishing 1.34 million yuan."

Zhou Qing once again made his presence felt in the circle, with a box office of 1.34 million, which is truly impressive.

It was so bright that it was blinding, and I don’t know how many people were blinded by it. (End of this chapter)
