China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 495 Postgraduate Entrance Examination and Graduation Ceremony [Two in One]

"Oh, sun, you're a fucking genius!"

"Mr. Harvey, relax, don't be so excited."

Sun Yi held the steering wheel with one hand and cut the handset of his mobile phone into a public position with the other hand and placed it on the armrest box. He also paid attention to the time on the mobile phone.

It shows 8 o'clock sharp.

Converting the time to Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States, it should be around 1 o'clock midnight.

Today is an important day for Sun Yi.

After four years of rebirth, he finally graduated.

To attend the graduation ceremony.

While we were still on the road, we suddenly received an international long-distance call from Harvey to the other side of the ocean. I don’t know what caused him to lose his mind and call him in the middle of the night.

Eighty percent should be the box office situation of "The Intouchables".

As expected, Harvey had no intention of selling anything, and just said it like a tofu in a bamboo tube.

Two days before "The Intouchables" was released in North America, it achieved box office results of 700 million US dollars in more than 600 theaters. It was quite satisfactory and not a good start. However, starting from the third day, the box office that should have declined actually The rise bucked the trend and continued into the weekend and became even more out of control. According to statistics, the box office in the first week actually reached 1900 million US dollars.

After Sun Yi heard this, he was also surprised. This number had almost reached his total box office expectations for the movie.

Because of the Chinese-language film, his expected box office for this movie is about US$3000 million.

Unexpectedly, almost two-thirds of it was completed within a week.

"I have already made arrangements. Starting from the second week, the number of theaters will be doubled to 1500. As long as the box office response is good, I will open the third batch of theaters in a timely manner and strive to eventually reach 2500. "

Sun Yi was a little confused about the movie's box office results. It was seriously inconsistent with his previous expectations. He didn't know what happened. However, he thanked Harvey calmly on the phone.

"Haha, I have to say that your publicity strategy is really a genius idea."

"Oh?"

“Audi’s ad is so cool.”

Listening to Harvey talking about Audi commercials and songs sung by Liu Yifei, Sun Yi finally understood that it was because of this.

He really didn't think of this situation beforehand, but it was great, he made money.

"Sun, I am not urging you. I know that directors have their own plans for creation, but I still want to ask how our collaboration on "Pacific Rim" is going. I am looking forward to this movie very much now."

After these two successful cooperations, Harvey now pays more and more attention to Sun Yi, and his tone has unknowingly become much weaker. He is no longer bossy, but uses a consultative tone.

Sun Yi smiled faintly and replied: "Don't worry, Mr. Harvey, all the preparatory work for the movie has been completed. The special effects department has started to do preliminary design based on my storyboards. The actual shooting will officially start within two months." , the filming will definitely be completed before the end of this year.”

"Oh, my dear Sun, this is the best news I've heard today. I'm going to have another drink and then go have a nice sleep."

"Please help yourself, Mr. Harvey."

After hanging up the phone, Sun Yi turned on the car stereo, which was Liu Yifei's "You Are the Best".

He couldn't help but hum along, tapping his fingers on the steering wheel in time with the rhythm.

"I want to say that I will love you, a little more, always in your ears."

Beijing Film Academy Auditorium.

Looking at the bachelor's uniform and bachelor's hat in his hand, Sun Yi felt a sigh of relief in his heart, as if it had happened many years ago.

"What, are you not satisfied?"

"No, no, no, it's good."

Tian Zhuang is no longer dressed like an old farmer. Instead, he is dressed in a red and black instructor's uniform. Although his beard is unshaven, it has been specially trimmed. Not to mention, if he adds eyes, he really looks like a university professor. An air of elegance.

"What are your plans after graduation?"

Sun Yi was putting on clothes when he heard this and was stunned.

What are my plans?

"Just live normally."

"Hey, kid, am I asking you this?" Tian Zhuang's old face was serious, and he was suddenly unhappy.

Sun Yi licked his lips and asked doubtfully: "Then what do you mean?"

"Your current achievements are inseparable from the school's training, right? Have you ever thought about making a contribution to your alma mater?"

Hey, this, what did Sun Yi think was going on?

Thinking about my journey along the way, from the initial collaboration with the movie channel "Send You a Little Red Flower" to the later Xiao Nizi's graduation drama "Those Years", I have received help from the school.

I am really grateful to the school.

He nodded immediately and said seriously: "How about I donate a set of photography equipment to the school? How about donating a teaching building and library?"

Looking at Tian Zhuang's face, he still looked unhappy.

Sun Yi's heart moved slightly, and he looked like he understood. He bent over and said in a low voice: "How about you tell me the number, and I will donate the money directly without asking why."

"piss off!"

Tian Zhuang finally couldn't stand it any longer and cursed in a suppressed voice: "I see you got a Palme d'Or. It's so awesome. What do you think the school is?"

Sun Yi wiped a handful of spittle that had fallen onto his face, his expression a bit sarcastic.

Nowadays, in the circle, there are really not many people who dare to scold him in person like this, but the old man in front of him is even one.

"Then don't play riddles and just tell me directly. But if you have your orders, you can follow your orders."

Tian Zhuang twitched the corner of his mouth, his face immediately changed, and he said with a half-smile, "That's what you said."

Sun Yi was a little helpless.

Stop pretending, just say it honestly, that's not your purpose.

He nodded immediately and said, "Yes, I said so."

"Okay, then you can take the postgraduate entrance examination."

What? ! !

Learn a jingle? No, postgraduate entrance examination?

I have to make a movie, my company has to go public, and I have a little angel at home with whom I can study the origins of mankind. How can I have time to play this with you!

"No, teacher, I don't have time for the postgraduate entrance examination."

Sun Yi looked embarrassed.

Tian Zhuang seemed to have anticipated Sun Yi's answer. He glanced sideways at him, snorted and said, "I knew you had to say this."

"You don't need to take the exam, just be willing to do it. I'll apply for graduate school. Then, I'll be named a teaching assistant and lead a directing class."

Leading a class?

Sun Yi was confused, and when he was about to speak, Tian Zhuang interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"Leading the class is nominal. There is a dedicated person in charge of the daily work, so you don't need to take care of it. Just take some time to attend a few classes in a semester." After that, he turned to the school leaders on the podium and continued in a low voice: "This is what the principal means. You are so smart, I don't believe you can't see it."

Sun Yi's eyes moved slightly, and he understood after thinking for a moment.

I was born in Beijing Film Academy, and the school gave me a lot of help when I started my career. Now I have achieved some success, and the school regards me as a golden brand.

Moreover, as we all know, since the new century, for ten years, the directing department, one of the two core cores of Beijing Film Academy, has experienced a gap in the talents cultivated.

After the fifth and sixth generation directors, except for the emergence of Ning Hao, who was born in the photography department, there seems to be a blank.

If it weren't for Sun Yi's sudden emergence, this situation would have lasted for 10 years.

Therefore, the school is preparing to let Sun Yi take up the banner of the directing department.

At the same time, there is another indescribable benefit of letting him lead the class. He has a film and television company as big as Xingkong in his hands. As his student, he must be the first to get the most.

Just like a new term that has just emerged in recent years, industry, academia and research.

However, if you think about it conversely, there are many benefits. Xingkong currently lacks a director, so many projects cannot be carried out. Sun Yi has grown up, and he originally promised to travel with the little fairy, but it has not happened even once in two years. Now that he has the title of leading the class, as a teacher, he has the title of master and apprentice. As long as he does not do too much, the talents he cultivates will definitely not be too low in loyalty in the future, and they will definitely become outstanding wage earners in the starry sky. No, It is the mainstay.

Thinking of this, Sun Yi nodded slowly and replied to Tian Zhuang: "Okay, since the school needs me so much, I will do my best."

"Hmph, you kid, don't act like a good boy when you get an advantage."

"hey-hey."

Speaking of which, Sun Yi was right, but one thing was that he was a little too modest. He was not a small success now. It was not enough to be in the palace. At least he had to be heard by the princes. Even though he was young, he had already reached the age of success. You can use your own fame and strength to contribute back to the school's level.

Therefore, Beiying valued this aspect of him and opened the back door for him.

This is what is called, today you are proud of the school, and the school will be proud of you in the future.

Sun Yi forced his life to become a role model in the eyes of others.

"Please invite the senior brothers and sisters from the 05-level directing department to come on stage!"

As an outstanding graduate of the 05 directing department, Sun Yi was the first to take the stage, and then bowed slightly.

As an outstanding representative of this class of graduates, he also delivered a speech on the stage.

Everyone in the audience was a classmate who knew everything about them. When they first entered college, they all knew each other's stupid things, so Sun Yi didn't talk about anything special, just the same old things.

Recall the four lush years of college, thank my alma mater and teachers for their diligent teaching, and then enjoy the future and work hard.

After the speech, the graduation ceremony began.

Zhang Xuenian, who was the principal of Beijing Film Academy at the time, came over in a red and yellow principal's uniform, flipped the tassel on Sun Yi's academic cap from right to left, completing the tassel-tapping ceremony, and then handed him a graduation certificate and a bachelor's degree. certificate, patted him on the shoulder, and said to him meaningfully: "Come on, the school is proud of you."

"Thank you, principal."

At the same time, the entire school leadership team stood up and took a photo with Sun Yi on the stage. So far in the graduation ceremony, he is the only person who has received this treatment.

Bang bang bang.

There were bursts of applause from the audience.

Among them was Yang Mi, who was sitting among the 05-level acting graduates, with Zhang Xiaofei next to her. Looking at Sun Yi on the stage, she suddenly had a change of thought, took out her mobile phone, and typed out a message, Then it was sent.

Here, Sun Yi finished the graduation ceremony, walked out of the auditorium with his classmates from the directing department, and went to the playground to take graduation photos.

There are only a few people in the entire 05-level directing undergraduate class. Speaking of which, there are not as many tutors in various disciplines.

When taking the photo, Tian Zhuang was sitting in the middle of the first row, with Sun Yi behind him.

As the camera clicked, Sun Yi's college career officially came to an end.

While exchanging contact information with a group of tutors and classmates, Sun Yi suddenly saw a message on his phone, which was sent by Yang Mi.

"School is over, don't leave!"

I couldn't help but smile.

Is this a fight?

Just when Sun Yi was about to reply to the text message, a pleasant voice sounded in his ears.

"Senior brother, what a coincidence."

Sun Yi looked back and saw Jing Tian.

We haven’t seen each other for more than a year. This girl has become a lot more beautiful. She is completely open. Speaking of which, she is the same as the little girl in the family. She is one of the very few who did not have good looks from the time she debuted as a teenager until she became an adult. One of the actresses who has changed so much.

At this moment, she was wearing apricot half-sleeves, a blue plaid skirt, the popular stockings on her calves, and a pair of white shoes. She raised a big smile towards Sun Yi, and her big eyes were still so eye-catching.

Sun Yi smiled.

It's already mid-July now, and normal students would have been on vacation long ago. What a coincidence.

Sun Yi saw through it and replied with a smile: "It's indeed a coincidence."

"Senior Brother's "The Intouchables" was so beautifully shot that I almost cried while watching it."

"really?"

Seeing that Sun Yi didn't believe it, Jing Tian looked anxious, raised three fingers, and said eagerly: "Really, I watched it three times, and even booked a show with my classmates."

"Oh, thank you for your contribution to the box office."

"whee."

"By the way, where's Senior Sister Yifei? Didn't she come with you today?"

"Well, I was busy filming all day yesterday, and it was rare that I could sleep in in the morning. I didn't ask her to let her sleep a little longer."

"I really envy you, senior sister~" Jing Tian's voice was almost whispering, but Sun Yi didn't hear it.

The two walked along the playground for a while. Jing Tian bit her lip and struggled for a long time before she finally plucked up the courage and asked Sun Yi with a blushing face: "By the way, senior brother, can I do it in the future?"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice.

"Great director, do you recognize my old classmates from the acting department?"

It is Yang Mi who has completed the graduation ceremony.

"Of course I admit it, what do you mean?"

"Taking graduation photos will give you a chance to show your face."

Sun Yi smiled and shook his head, turned back to Jingtian and asked, "What did you just say?"

Jing Tian pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head and said, "No, it's nothing."

"Then I'll take the first step. See you later."

"Yeah, brother, walk slowly."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, as expected, the great director is extraordinary and full of charm. It took so long for him to hook up with an elementary school girl." Yang Mi said in a weird tone.

Oh, my wife doesn't care about it, can you?

Sun Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and shot back: "What, are you jealous?"

When Yang Mi heard this, her expression suddenly changed, and she raised her hand to strike, but then she thought of something, and then she put her hand down angrily, tilted her head and murmured: "Who cares?"

When we came to the playground, sure enough, the 05-level acting class was here, as well as the head teacher, Teacher Huo, and Teacher Cui.

"Look, I brought the great director back." Yang Mi said with a smile to everyone.

Seeing Sun Yi coming, these old classmates stepped forward to say hello, but there was an inexplicable sense of distance in their words.

Only the heartless Zhang Xiaofei didn't care about this and said loudly:

"Hey, we Mimi have to take action, otherwise the great director will probably forget about us old classmates."

Sun Yi laughed, pointed at Zhang Xiaofei and complained:

"I can't forget anyone, but I can't forget you, classmate Zhang Xiaofei. During the military training, you really made me angry."

"Pfft. Hahahaha"

Hearing Sun Yi mention military training, everyone thought of the "sanitary napkins" on the playground. Zhang Xiaofei's face turned red and he stuck out his tongue in embarrassment.

After talking about the embarrassing incident of that year, the sense of alienation between everyone and Sun Yi suddenly dissipated a lot. Everyone seemed to have returned to the time when they first went to college. The chat box was opened for a while, and they talked about each other's shortcomings in a few words.

Cui Xinqin looked at the group of young people in front of her with a smile.

Four years have passed in a flash, and their faces have long since lost the youthfulness they had when they first entered school, which is really sad.

It wasn't until the photographer came over to remind her that she stepped forward, clapped her hands, and stopped everyone.

"Okay, okay, there are other classes that haven't been photographed yet. You can catch up on old times after taking graduation photos."

After hearing this, everyone laughed and started lining up.

"One, two, three, eggplant~"

I don’t know if it was intentional or not, but the position where Sun Yi was standing in the photo was exactly on Yang Mi’s head, exactly the same as when he was in his senior year of high school.
