In fact, Director Wei did not tell the truth.

His goal is really not 50 billion.

However, one should be humble.

Let's first rush to 50 billion, and then climb up slowly.

The two pieces of news announced by Director Wei undoubtedly helped boost the box office of "The World of Contenders" to continue to explode.

In this way, although the Spring Festival period has ended, "The World of Controversy" is still riding the wind and waves.

Sturm und Drang.

Until someone starts to notice something is wrong.

After all, the box office of "The Great Conquest" has exceeded 50 billion, so why does it seem like not much time has passed?

Is it...

Chapter 104: Director Wei folds flowers, and the beautiful chef performs!

Preface: The box office information in the previous chapter was wrong. In this book, "Tokyo Raid" had already raised the box office record to 41 billion.

I forgot my mistake.

It cannot be modified on the official account, so I just tell everyone so that everyone knows it and it does not affect reading.

To express my apology, I will try to continue updating "Teacher, this is my classmate Zhou Ye" tomorrow.

Guan Xiaotong pointed at her classmates and introduced them to Director Wei.

The last time Director Wei said he wanted to produce a variety show about selecting an oiran, Guan Xiaotong said that she would introduce her classmates to Director Wei after she entered the Beijing Film Academy.

Director Wei didn't take it seriously at the time.

I didn’t expect that Guan Xiaotong hadn’t forgotten about this.

Moreover, she actually introduced him to a future female star who he had an impression of.

If Guan Xiaotong hadn't introduced him, Wei Jun really wouldn't have known that Guan Xiaotong and Zhou Ye were classmates.

Zhou Ye, the girl who played the bullying girl Wei Lai in "Better Days".

You know what, when she stands next to Zhou Dongyu, it's really obvious who is better.

"Hello, Director Wei."

Zhou Ye greeted Director Wei somewhat nervously.

At this time, the box office of "The Great Contest" has exceeded 50 billion.

And it is still rising and there is no way it can be stopped.

However, the crew's publicity and promotion work has been completed, and Director Wei is now free.

He's not a workaholic.

Can't always be working.

So Director Wei did not arrange any work or rest time for himself today.

It just so happened that her goddaughter Guan Xiaotong said she wanted to bring her classmates to visit her good teacher.

Director Wei is of course welcome.

Guan Xiaotong’s classmates are only 19 years old this year.

Who doesn’t like a youthful girl?

There are people in the circle who say that Director Wei only likes the one about Prime Minister Cao. This rumor is absolutely a rumor.

Director Wei is not picky at all.

Only children do multiple choice questions.

Director Wei wants them all.

"Zhou Ye?"

Director Wei thought of a play Zhou Ye had played later in life: the second female lead in "Better Days."

The heroine is Zhou Dongyu.

The second female lead is played by Zhou Ye.

To be honest, the acting is pretty good.

Although he is not at the level to win an award, and being nominated is quite outrageous, but compared horizontally, he is indeed good among actors of the same age.

At least better than Guan Xiaotong at that time.

Because at that time, Guan Xiaotong was already addicted to brainless idol dramas, her acting skills were getting worse and worse, and her aura from her childhood was gone.

Of course, now that Guan Xiaotong has a good teacher, Director Wei, it’s hard to say.

In addition, Zhou Ye also played the quirky little witch Gu Xiang in "Word of Honor".

However, Director Wei had never seen this in his previous life, because it was a gay BL drama.

Overall, I don’t have a deep impression of her, but for a girl born in 98 who debuted late, it’s already a great achievement for her to have a play that Director Wei will remember.

The most important thing is that she is not ugly, she can be said to be quite pretty.

So Director Wei was also very enthusiastic towards Zhou Ye.

"Since you are Xiaotong's classmate, there is no need to be restrained.

Sit down and treat it like your home.

Xiaotong knows that I am easygoing."

Director Wei said easily.

Guan Xiaotong nodded and said, "Yezi, I told you that the teacher is really easygoing."

Last time, she felt too tired to kneel and did not agree to Director Wei's request to turn over, but Director Wei was not angry.

What an easygoing teacher.

Don't compromise yourself at all just for the sake of enjoying yourself and learning new knowledge.

Guan Xiaotong felt like she had found a treasure.

Zhou Ye didn't believe a word Guan Xiaotong said.

Although she was born in 98 and is only 19 years old this year, she is not stupid.

Given Director Wei's current popularity in the industry, even if Director Wei was really easygoing, she wouldn't dare to really think that he was easygoing.

However, there is no doubt that Director Wei has a good rapport with girls.

After chatting casually for ten minutes, Zhou felt that the distance between him and Director Wei had been greatly shortened.

And... Director Wei is really good.

That's too modest.

"Director Wei, is the box office for 'The Great Contender' aiming for 60 billion?"

Zhou also raised a question that's currently on the minds of many film fans and industry insiders. "The Great Conquest" hasn't even finished its normal theatrical run, but its box office has already surpassed 50 billion yuan.

Given the subject matter and popularity of "The Age of Great Struggle", the higher-ups will definitely give the key to an extension.

Under such circumstances, many professional box office forecasting agencies have quietly raised their expectations for the box office of "The Great Contest".

The unattainable number of 60 billion is no longer a fantasy in the eyes of many people.

Director Wei smiled modestly.

"Six billion or not? It doesn't matter. It's just a courtesy from the audience."

Director Wei waved his hand, his tone calm and composed, "We're all family. I'm not going to brag. In fact, the quality of the drama 'The Great Strife' is only around 2 billion. The additional 2 billion for the release date and the subject matter is not my credit at all."

Zhou also laughed: "Director Wei, you are so modest. The schedule is open to everyone and the subject matter is suitable for everyone to shoot.

How come you can set a box office record but others can't?"

Guan Xiaotong added: "That's not true. 'The Great Contender' isn't something that every director can shoot."

Wei Jun nodded and said, "Xiaotong is right. If I weren't the one directing a film like 'The Age of Strife', it would be really hard to get it off the ground."

It's not a question of passing the review.

It’s a problem of project establishment.

If you want to shoot a movie like "The Great Controversy", you must obtain approval from above.

After all, this involves the relationship between the two countries.

In fact, even if it is the original time and space, Director Wei feels that "The Age of Great Controversy" may not be impossible to film.

The prerequisite is to have a director with a strong enough background.

Then... our conflict with the United States will also intensify to a certain extent.

Even if we don't slap the United States in the face, the United States will not let us have an easy time.

In this situation, when the higher-ups have made up their minds to fight back.

The South China Sea standoff may be brought to the big screen to boost national morale.

Of course, it is unlikely to gather a cast like Director Wei's.

Moreover, if the film is shot again five, six, or even ten years later, the sense of immersion for the audience will be different.

The South China Sea standoff occurred in July 2016.

Director Wei let the audience know about this incident on the big screen during the 2017 Spring Festival.

Not even half a year has passed.

The audience still feels a sense of fear, and the sense of immersion can be said to be perfect.

After five, six, seven, or eight years... this sense of immersion will be greatly reduced.

In this case, the appeal to the audience may be greatly reduced.

Therefore, even if it is adapted into a movie, it may not achieve very good box office results.

Director Wei had it all this time, with the right time, right place, and right people.

So Director Wei is not being modest.

“My personal contribution and ability account for at most one-third of the success of The Great Contender.

The support from above, the coincidental international environment, and the joint efforts of many people in front of and behind the scenes, and most importantly, our military is strong enough and our national strength is powerful enough to make the United States wary.

The combination of various factors created the box office miracle of "The Great Controversy."

Director Wei briefly analyzed the situation and then said with a smile, "If you calculate it that way, my contribution wouldn't even be one-third or one-fifth at best."

Zhou also refreshed his three views.

"Director Wei, you are the most humble person I have ever met.

Many boys brag about their abilities even though they don’t have any. Are talented people so modest?

Wei Jun smiled and said, “The higher you stand, the more aware you are of your own insignificance.

I'm not being modest. In fact, if "The Great Controversy" can be filmed, it won't be much different if you replace it with Zhang Yimou. It's really not my ability."

Guan Xiaotong added: "That's not certain. If Director Zhang shoots the film, I think the visuals and atmosphere might be better than yours, but Director Zhang may not be able to tell the story clearly."

Wei Jun: "Xiaotong, I will tell Director Zhang about this."

Guan Xiaotong stuck out her tongue.

She's not very scared.

When filming "Parasite", she left a good impression on Zhang Yimou.

In fact, there are always news reports about young and handsome guys acting like big shots.

But in real life, when young stars face older seniors including directors, 9 out of 10 will be very humble and low-key.
