Chapter 41 The Molested Huang Bo

On September [-]nd, "Crazy Stone" was officially removed from the shelves.

The film has maintained a fairly good attendance rate from the first day of its release until the last day when it was taken off the shelves.

Even a week after its release, there were inevitably many pirated copies of the movie, but even so, the attendance rate of "Crazy Stone" remained at about 20% on the last day of the movie's release.

Such an attendance rate, if it is not placed in 20 when the attendance rate of movies is generally high, but in the later generations more than [-] years later, it will definitely be extended by the movie theater for another month.

Of course, although it won the box office, "Crazy Stone", as an obvious commercial film, has not yet been opened by Zhang Yimou with the blockbuster "Hero", and the 90s is still dominated by literary films and exploring human nature. At the end, Cao Qing's film was not well received.

In addition to the younger generation of fashionable youths, most of the middle-aged main force in their 60s and [-]s felt that this movie was a bit random and lowered the style and flavor of mainland movies.

Simply put, as a guest from later generations, Cao Qing never had any hope that everyone would praise his movie. This kind of thing is impossible no matter in which era.

Regardless of the middle-aged and elderly audiences, while trying not to be too disliked by them, he wholeheartedly captures the young people of this generation and the next generation. This is Cao Qing's attitude towards the current middle-aged main moviegoers.

After all, as time goes by, the middle-aged main force in this group will gradually grow old, and the generation of young people born in the [-]s will gradually become the main force in society. By then, not only "Crazy Stone" will If the verdict can be overturned, many people who are now considered mainstream will also be abandoned by the times.

Only myself, the director who has been running through their youth, youth, and middle age, will eventually grow into the absolute film master in the minds of this generation and the next generation of young people.

……

"Neck, what are you doing?"

"Is there anything to do tomorrow? If there is nothing to do, the celebration banquet will start."

In the afternoon, I slept comfortably.

When he woke up and looked at his watch, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon. Cao Qing called Huang Bo directly and asked him to have a celebration banquet together.

On the other end of the phone, Huang Bo heard Cao Qing say that he would invite him to a celebration banquet, and immediately laughed and joked:
"Wow, I've been waiting for today."

"Hey, I thought I would have to wait until evening to eat, but I didn't expect you to call me just this afternoon, Brother Qing, Beautiful!"

"But I said Brother Qing, I originally thought that the film investor would invite us to dinner, but I didn't expect him to be so mysterious. Even though the movie has already been released, it has achieved a box office of 800 million. This big guy doesn't even show his face."

Raising his eyebrows, hearing Huang Bo's doubts, Cao Qing smiled half-truthfully and said:
"Haha, this is just a small investment of more than 100 million yuan. Although 800 million box office sounds like a lot, it actually doubles the principal when it comes to hands."

"This small profit is of course a huge profit for us people, but it is probably just a drizzle for that big guy. When our movie can earn him [-] million, He might show up."

"..."

Suddenly, Huang Bo on the other end of the phone wanted to curse.

Who is it?This is all!
I happened to be discussing with you that the box office has exploded a lot. You said it was [-] million. Has there ever been a domestic movie with a box office of over [-] million?

This is not at all!
If you want the box office to exceed [-] million, bah, no, earning him [-] million, that is simply a dream.

It's pure nonsense, nonsense, hopeless, fantasy.

If one day he can really make a movie that earns him [-] million yuan, don’t say that he wants to meet a mere behind-the-scenes investor. Even if you tie Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Xu Ke together, they still have to serve tea and wine to the boss. , V low to make small.

Listening to Huang Bo's silence on the other end of the phone, Cao Qing couldn't help but laugh, and he kept laughing loudly on the phone.

In this way, after laughing for a while, Cao Qing made an appointment with Huang Bo for the specific meal time and place tomorrow, then hung up the phone with a smile on his face, and then called Liu Yijun and Sun Honglei.

……

The next day, at seven o'clock in the evening, the night was very bright, with a bright moon hanging high and stars.

In the Wenchang Hotel near the small courtyard where Cao Qing lived, Cao Qing, Huang Bo, Liu Yijun, and Sun Honglei finally got together again.

The guy with Neck sings in BJ Sanlitun, and you can see the difference almost every day. Although Liu Yijun and Sun Honglei are both in BJ, but because of the box office hit of "Crazy Stone", these two guys have also recently Gradually, they started to get busy, and each of them chose a crew to film.

Among them, Sun Honglei chose a movie, as a small supporting role with a few minutes of lines; while Liu Yijun chose a TV series, an unknown male lead in a small crew.

Regarding the choice of the two of them, Cao Qing did not interrupt.

There is no need, after all, the two of them have not been accepted by me at present. If I really point out which movie and TV series are worth joining the two of them, when the two of them really become popular, it will be for myself. The work of "conquering" brings difficulties.

In the small Ford box of the Wenchang Hotel, Cao Qing, Huang Bo and the other four met each other and chatted a little bit about their recent busy affairs.

Sun Honglei and Liu Yijun didn't have much to talk about. What these two people talked about was basically what happened in the crew. Although there were gossips and scenes of tearing up X in order to compete for the role, there were more There are also a series of messy and trivial matters such as how to better steal the camera during filming, increase the sense of presence, etc.

And Cao Qing has nothing to say. During this time, he was either running promotions every day or staying alone in the courtyard to sleep and read the director's books he bought. Except for the occasional dinner or dinner party with Huang Bo, most of the time Life is very regular.

Only Huang Bo's life was somewhat exciting.

He has the best relationship with Cao Qing, Cao Qing told him not to take on random scenes shortly after the filming, and to wait for a few months, and join the team as soon as the script of his next film is finished.

Huang Bo, who completely obeyed Cao Qingyan on this point, spent the past few months singing in Sanlitun, the capital, every night after filming the movie, while reading and practicing his acting skills during the day.

During this period, due to the sudden popularity of "Crazy Stone", whenever he arrived in Sanlitun in the capital every night, it was immediately packed with customers, and countless fans gathered around to let him sing and perform.

These days, the average tip reward he can receive every day is four to five hundred, not to mention the rest of the rewards and fan benefits.

Huang Bo himself didn't expect that one day, with his appearance, someone would come up to him to ask for kisses and flirt with him while he was singing.

In the past few months, he has lived such a small life every day, which is really very comfortable.

At the dinner table, Sun Honglei, who heard Huang Bo enthusiastically talking about how he was treated by big names in Sanlitun, the capital, and who had stage performance experience before, and who had seen the fans' fanaticism, didn't respond much, but Liu Yijun, who has always been taciturn. For a while, I was envious.
