Chapter 1014 Negotiation conditions reached
After a while, the two recovered.

Er Di sat on the table and tidied up his clothes a little bit, pretending to accidentally touch the document next to him, picked it up casually, looked at Zhou Xia and asked tentatively: "Yiyi, what is this, is it a draft?"

"Well, the talent show for women's teams." Zhou Xia nodded and started packing her clothes.

It's July now, and the air conditioner is turned on in the office. After exercising, you still have to pay attention to maintaining your body temperature.

"Women's group, I know, are the twelve girls trained by the company going to debut?" Er Di came up and continued to pester Zhou Xia, sitting on his lap and asked.

"Yes, there are others from other companies. We need 101 girls to finally select 11 to form a group debut."

Zhou Xia put his hands on Er Di's slender and strong thighs, and replied casually, without noticing Er Di's thoughts.

"There are so many girls, that show must be very good."

"It should be, how about asking you to be a guest or a mentor at that time?" Zhou Xia couldn't help but had an idea, and couldn't help but said.

At present, the main fans of domestic star chasing are mainly young girls. Girl groups definitely have no advantage over boy groups in this regard.

But if the girl group can attract a large number of male fans, the situation will be different.

In this regard, Xia Hua's big female roles and small flowers all have a large number of loyal male fans. There are many fans of the so-called body, appearance, personality, and so on.

"Me? I don't know how to sing or dance..." Er Di said hesitantly.

This is a variety show that Zhou Xia is planning, and she will definitely devote the best resources to it. Of course she is very excited, but this is also a fact.

After all, she is an actress, not a professional singer who can sing and dance.

"It's okay, if it doesn't work, just be a guest for one or two episodes. Others have professional mentors." Zhou Xia became more and more sure of this idea.

He doesn't have to worry about the selection of male and female mentors for the women's team. The company's professional team will go back and consider and invite them.

And what he has to do is to consider some things from the overall situation.

If some of Xiaohu, Yaya, Sisi, Tangtang, Xiaoying, Xiaoai, Erdi, Meina, etc. were to be guests for one or two episodes, or to go for a walk, they would all be happy. It brings a lot of attention to the show and will attract many male fans to pay attention to the girl group.

"Okay, since you said so, of course I am willing to go." Er Di nodded and agreed.

He participated in "Running Man" the year before last, and also participated in a variety show every year for the past two years. This year he participated in "The Birth of an Actor", and it has not been decided for next year.

The company is very supportive of artists participating in variety shows, and sometimes makes active arrangements, but there are related restrictive policies.

Artists are required to focus on acting as their main career. Variety shows are only a way to increase exposure and increase public awareness. Unrestrained participation in variety shows is not allowed.

"Well, I'll have someone arrange to notify you when the time comes. It's getting late, so let's leave it at that today."

Zhou Xia patted Er Di's buttocks, held her up and put her on the ground.

"Take me back, how about staying with me tonight..." Er Di acted like a baby.

"Hehe, good boy, when the movie starts, I will be with you every day in the crew." Zhou Xia said with a smile.

"Hmph." Er Di snorted dissatisfiedly, straightened his clothes, and strode out without looking back.

Seeing this, Zhou Xia shrugged helplessly, then went in to take a shower, changed clothes, and came out. After being busy for a while, she left the company and went back to Xiaohu's side.

………………

In the next few days, Zhou Xia was busy with the preparations before the filming started, and communicated with Yang Tianzhen about the idea of ​​the girl group talent show, and asked her to do it in an all-round way.

On July 7, the premiere of "Tiny Times 7: The End of Soul" was held.

Although Zhou Xia didn't attend the premiere ceremony, she still asked her assistant to post on Weibo and @the lead actor and director to express her congratulations.

This series of movies is very successful commercially, but because of the mixed reputation, it is now the last one, which is also a good end for all the main creators.

Especially the eight leading actors, Xiao Ai, Qingzi, Mina, Yang Zi, Qu Bufan, Lin Gou, Fengfeng, and Yang Yang, now have good reputations accumulated in other works, which is also a relief for them.

After the premiere, the finale continued to grow in popularity, quickly outpacing other hits.

Two weeks later, Zhou Xia's "Descendants of Yanhuang" will be released, and the schedule of all the movies that are currently showing in theaters will be compressed. This period of time is the best time for "Tiny Times 4" to grab the box office, and there is no room for loss.

Therefore, after the premiere, the promotion of this movie was done to the extreme. Various drafts used emotional cards such as "nostalgia", "tolerance" and "reminiscence" to praise the movie and attract the audience's attention.

At the same time, due to the good box office results of the first few films, even though there are many popular movies in theaters, the first week of release still reached 32.5%.

This shows how 'real' the cinema is.

The so-called great directors are nothing more than that in their eyes, box office revenue and money are the most important, otherwise the theater staff and venue rental fees will not be able to spend.

Soon on July 7, "Little Times 10" was officially released in theaters across the country.

As one of the most watched films in the summer, on the day of its premiere, "Little Times 4" accounted for 32.6% of the film schedule, with 7.3 screenings at full capacity, and won a first-day box office of 1.86 million, far exceeding At that time, "Taoist Down the Mountain" and "Embroidered Spring Knife" had a box office of 8000 million and 6000 million on the first day, which became the No. 2 box office of the first day of this year's Chinese 5D movie, and far surpassed the box office of the first two films.

With the natural box office of nearly [-] million on the first day, the executives of Xiahua Film and Television, including Huanrui, a subsidiary of Xuanfa, breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, they know the urine nature of this movie, and it has become everyone's consensus to drive high and low.

That's why the pre-stage publicity was fully launched so early. Two weeks later, 80% of the film's box office was basically paid in. The follow-up "Descendants of Yan and Huang" was released, and the impact of the compressed film schedule was very small.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Xia and Zhang Zhao discussed the arrangement of the release schedule.

接下来周六、周日（11、12日）两天，《小时代4》仍旧有超前预售的9000万的票房入市，两天票房分别收获2.31亿、2.06亿，首周三天票房超过了6亿。

Except for Zhou Xia's film, this score is already top-notch among other domestic films.

Among the domestically produced films in recent years, there are only a few directors from Xia Hua Film and Television, such as Guangtou Xu and Xing Xing Zhou's films can be compared.

Even the films of Xue Xiaolu, Tian Yusheng and others with high total box office results did not perform so well in the first week. Their films achieved good results mainly due to their good reputation and long-term screenings.

As the day was getting closer and closer to the release of Zhou Xia's new movie, Zhang Zhao's negotiations with the theaters were progressing slowly. He had to make an appointment with the top [-] theater managers in the country to come to Xiahua and have an interview with Zhou Xialai.

After Zhou Xia held a closed-door meeting with them, the two parties finally reached a condition, and the theater managers agreed to the condition proposed by Xia Hua.

For the part of Zhou Xia's film schedule exceeding 40%, no other box office rebate requirements will be raised, and Zhou Xia's new film's first-day film schedule will increase to 56%.
