25 million in 3 days.

Hearing this number, Wu Yuchen couldn't help but feel refreshed. This is even higher than last year's My Brothers and Sisters. It seems that the reputation and appeal of Director Wu Da have surpassed that of Wang Xianxian!

However, Wu Yuchen quickly calmed down. After all, in the United States, he had already won the box office of US$50 million in the first weekend. Simply speaking from the amount of money, it was not enough to make him overly excited.

Moreover, Wu Yuchen calculated that the box office of If Love Has God's Will in the past three days was 25 million, which was still far behind the later Hero. When Hero was released in the previous life in 2002, it sold 51 million in 3 days. Now If Love Is Divine Will has not even reached half of Hero!

In fact, it's not surprising. After all, the lineup of Heroes is a big cast, with Jet Li, Tony Leung, Maggie Cheung and other all-star lineups, while If Love Has God's Will is a blank slate lineup in comparison, and it is only 1998, and the Internet Information dissemination is far inferior to what it was in 2002, and publicity is not as big as Hero.

Wu Yuchen smiled: Director Han, it's only 25 million now, and it's still a long way from breaking 100 million. We can't relax in our announcement!

Hahaha, don't worry, Director Wu. We have prepared enough copies for this release. As for publicity, that's up to you, Director Wu!

Han Sanping is in a very good mood now. With a box office of 25 million in three days, it looks very promising to exceed 100 million. Moreover, If Love Is Provident and Titanic are both love movies. Judging from the reputation of the audience after watching the movie, many said that the love between the male and female protagonists is not inferior to that of Jack and Rousseau.

At this time, it is really rare for a film to come out that can rival Titanic in terms of reputation! At least, in terms of momentum, it helped domestic movies save a city!

Wu Yuchen also smiled after hanging up the phone. Jiang Qinqin heard the conversation he had just had with Han Sanping and couldn't help but asked excitedly: Is it really 25 million?

Wu Yuchen nodded: It's not that accurate, but it won't be too different.

The current statistics on China's side are relatively rough, and the data cannot be as real-time and accurate as those in the United States.

Jiang Qinqin immediately said happily: I heard that the box office of Titanic in the first three days was more than 20 million. Do you think we will...

Wu Yuchen stretched out his hand and gently scratched her nose: Will it exceed the box office of Titanic? What are you thinking?!

Jiang Qinqin pursed her lips and said, Why can't you think about it? It's more than 20 million. What if...

When Wu Yuchen looked at her like this, he really wanted to compare her endurance with Titanic? What movie can compare!

It's not like you haven't watched Titanic with me. Do you really think that such high production costs are wasted? Do our movies have such big scenes and exquisite production?

Wu Yuchen rubbed Jiang Qinqin's head and continued:

The box office of Titanic is not just due to love. Let me say one thing. After the pirated version comes out, the effect of If Love Is a Will will not be much different when we watch it at home and in the cinema. But Titanic It’s different, otherwise you can tell me why so many people go to the cinema repeatedly to watch it.”

Jiang Qinqin immediately understood after hearing this. She was so excited by the 25 million box office results just now that she imagined that her movie as the heroine could surpass Titanic and reach the top of China. But before the sweet dream could even begin, it was ruthlessly shattered by Wu Yuchen.

Oh, you are so annoying, can't you just let me daydream for a few days~ Jiang Qinqin patted Wu Yuchen.

Wu Yuchen patted her on the butt gently: You little fool, with this billion-dollar heroine in front of you, what are you still thinking about daydreaming about?

Jiang Qinqin also reacted instantly after hearing this. Even if she cannot surpass Titanic, she is likely to become a heroine with a box office of over 100 million. This is something that no one has been able to achieve for many years!

Jiang Qinqin suddenly smiled again, pulling Wu Yuchen to go out.

What are you doing? Wu Yuchen asked strangely.

Go and promote!

Jiang Qinqin is now full of motivation to fight for her billion-dollar heroine.

Wow, wow, it's so beautiful, so touching!

Well, the plot is very touching, the male and female protagonists are also good-looking, and the music is so good! I wonder if there is a tape for sale. I want to buy it and listen to it a hundred times!

At the entrance of the cinema, Li Jian was so happy that his teeth were showing as he listened to the conversation of a few girls walking out. This was not the first audience member he heard saying this. He had been here for half a day, and at least one of the three audience members who came out would talk about the theme song he sang.

Hearing so many good reviews and feedback made Li Jian determined.

The next day, Li Jian knocked on the door of the department director's office. Seeing that it was a new employee who had just come in, the director raised his eyelids and asked, Xiao Li, is something okay?

Li Jian stepped forward and handed over a letter.

The director was a little confused, so he took the letter and opened it: resignation letter!

This made him stunned for a moment, and then he looked Li Jian up and down: Xiao Li, I remember that you have been an intern for a year, and you have just finished your internship and become a full-time employee, right? Resign?

Their Optoelectronics is a serious and well-established unit with real power.

Li Jian nodded: Director, I don't think I'm suitable for this job.

The director thought of Li Jian's status as a graduate of Shuimu University, and thought that people from this famous university are really arrogant, so he didn't feel strange at all. He nodded and said: Okay, if you really think about it, we won't stop you. Do you want to go abroad next?

According to his understanding of the students at Shuimu University, basically half of them went to study abroad. However, the answer he heard was beyond his expectation.

No, director, I plan to make music.

What? Make music? Aren't you studying electronic engineering? The director was really surprised when he heard this.

Yes, but singing and music have always been my interests, and I still want to do something I like.

Now the director was not very calm: Li Jian, you have to think clearly, music is not that easy to do, not to mention you are still an amateur, don't be impulsive when your brain gets hot!

When Li Jian heard the director's concern for him, he couldn't help but smile and said: Director, don't worry, this is a decision I made after careful consideration.

Seeing his disobedience, the director couldn't help but shook his head: Oh, young people, you Mizuki people are too conceited. You will know the gap between dreams and reality if you try your own way! But you are Mizuki people, Even if you fail, it’s not difficult to come back and find a job...

Hearing that the director continued to nag, Li Jian couldn't help but said: Director, don't worry, I have already released a song and can support myself.

Have you ever released a song? The director couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Yes, If Love Is Provident.

Isn't If Love Has a Will a movie just released by Wu Yuchen? the director asked strangely.

Director, I sang the theme song inside. Li Jian said with a faint smile.

After a while, looking at Li Jian's leaving figure, the director sighed again: Hey, these Shuimu students are just different!

After resting for two days, Wu Yuchen took Jiang Qinqin and Wu Yanzu all the way south, first to the nearest Jinmen for two days, and then flew directly to the Magic City.

Over the weekend, on the first night of the promotion in Shanghai, Wu Yuchen and several others were invited to a private room in a large hotel.

At this time, a middle-aged man about 50 years old saw Wu Yuchen coming in and stood up with a smile to greet him:

Welcome, welcome. I have long heard that our Chinese film industry has produced an incredible young hero, but I have never been able to meet him. Today I can meet Director Wu!

When seeing the visitor, even Wu Yuchen had to say hello respectfully: Mr. Zhu, you praise me too much. I should take the initiative to pay you a visit. The Wrangler and Wreaths Under the Mountain are all masterpieces handed down from generation to generation!

The person in front of me is named Zhu Yongde. He was once known as China's number one photographer. He is a Taishan Beidou-level photography master in the field of Chinese film and television. But at this time, he also had another identity, the former director of Shanghai Film Studio and now the boss of Shanghai Film Group.

In the decades after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Shanghai Film Studio actually dominated Beijing Film Studio for a long time. After all, Shanghai Film Studio is located in the magic city. The film industry has been inherited since the Republic of China, and its background is much stronger than that of Beijing Film Studio. . Moreover, Shanghai Film Studio has always dared to innovate. There are famous works such as Love in Lushan, the first kiss in Chinese film history, Wreaths Under the Mountain, the first war movie, Old Stories in the South of the City, Furong Town, etc., all produced by Shanghai Film Studio. , and Xie Jin, who had always been the number one director in China, was also from Shanghai Film Studio.

Today's Shanghai Film Group is also the first to undergo restructuring in China. In 1996, it merged Shanghai Film Studio, Magic City Art Studio and other companies into Shanghai Film Group.

To be honest, the current Shanghai Film Group is definitely stronger than Beijing Film Studio. However, Han Sanping is not a vegetarian. A few months later, he directly merged Beijing Film Studio and other companies into the new China Film Group, and he has The power to import films has always been overshadowed by Shanghai Film Group.

The Zhu Yongde in front of him was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He had the refined and refined style of the old-school Magic City people. He was completely different from Han Sanping, who always wore cloth shoes and dressed plainly.

Zhu Yongde smiled and waved his hand: It's out of date, it's out of date. I can't compare to you young people now. From now on, I have to look to Director Wu!

Then he gave a thumbs up and said: Director Wu, if you can make two blockbusters in a row that exceed 100 million in the United States, when we were young, we would have called you our national hero!

The two of them complimented each other and sat down in the box. Wu Yuchen had some suspicions about Mr. Zhu specially inviting him here.

At the dinner table, Zhu Yong pulled Wu Yuchen and talked about a lot of anecdotes about Chinese movies in the past few decades. Of course, they promoted the glorious history of their Shanghai Film Studio.

After finishing the meal, Zhu Yongde smiled and said to Wu Yuchen: Director Wu, I watched your movie If Love Has God's Will and it was well shot! Not only was it well shot, but it was also very popular with the audience. Now our magic movie The response from the city’s citizens has been quite good.”

Wu Yuchen is not surprised by this. People here in Shanghai have always pursued petty bourgeoisie and romance, and movies like If Love Has a Will are really to their taste.

However, Zhu Yongde changed his words: But Director Wu, if we were to replace you with Shanghai Film Publishing Company to distribute it for you, I can't guarantee that the box office in other places would be 30% higher than it is now in the Magic City, and 15% higher in the Yangtze River Delta region!

No matter how much Lao Zhu was the first photographer or artist before, after taking the position of CEO, he naturally has to consider the development of the company.

In the past two years, Wu Yuchen has been the most profitable director in China. Last year's My Brothers and Sisters ranked first at the box office in China, and this year's If Love Has God's Will is also a box office hit.

Lao Zhu knew that Wu Yuchen had his own company, so it was impossible to get him to join the company, but he couldn't just let Beijing Film Studio take advantage every time. They and Shanghai Film Studio wouldn't get anything!

Shanghai Film Academy, which has benefited from Xie Jin's bonus, is fully aware of the benefits that having a great director's name can bring to the company.

In any case, directors like Wu Yuchen need to be good friends when they go to film. It is best to participate in the investment of his next film. Even if he cannot lead Beijing Film Studio, he cannot fall behind!

When Wu Yuchen heard this, he thought to himself, the real drama is coming!

Magic City has always been the largest ticket warehouse for Chinese movies, and can even be called the largest ticket warehouse. The Yangtze River Delta region is the most economically developed area in China. The total box office in this area is really not low. The Shanghai Film Group, which occupies a geographical advantage, can be said to be the leader in this area.

To be honest, if it were Beijing Film Studio alone, it would not be able to do Shanghai Film Studio. However, Wu Yuchen knew in his heart that the new China Film Studio was about to be born. Isn't that why he had a good relationship with Han Sanping before? But he couldn't do it now Not firm.

Mr. Zhu, I have indeed admired Shanghai Film Studio for a long time. But you also know that I am from Beijing Film Studio, and all my previous movies relied on the help provided by Beijing Film Studio and Beijing Film Studio to be successfully shot...

Lao Zhu interrupted Wu Yuchen directly, patted his chest and promised:

Director Wu, no matter what difficulties you encounter in future filming or what conditions you propose, whatever Beijing Film Studio can do, we at Shanghai Film Studio can do, and whatever Han can promise you, I, Zhu Yongde, can also give, and absolutely Better than them!”

Wu Yuchen smiled bitterly, shook his head gently at Lao Zhu and said, Mr. Zhu, will you allow me to consider this matter?

Zhu Yongde also sighed in his heart. It was a pity that Wu Yuchen was not from the Magic City Theater Academy. In the past ten years, the Magic City Theater Academy has really lagged behind the two schools in Beijing!

Then Zhu Yongde's tone slowed down and he persuaded:

Director Wu, you are no longer a small director. You can be said to be one of the signatures of our Chinese film industry. There is no need to fall into the trap of sectarianism. You should stand at a higher position. How can it be beneficial to your own film and how can it be beneficial to our Chinese film industry? It’s beneficial. No matter what you choose, will our Shanghai Film or Beijing Film Academy still embarrass you?”

Although he knew what Lao Zhu said, he still helped them fight for Shanghai Film Academy, but it really made Wu Yuchen realize that he was indeed a little person. He and Han Sanping could be brothers and became the guests of the CEO of Shanghai Film Academy. Feng Xiaogang Even more so, he was respectful to him when he met him. He would not even be happy if he was not called Xiaogang...

It's just that his progress has been too fast in the past two years, so that he still doesn't have a clear view of his position.

In fact, he doesn't really value the box office revenue of domestic movies very much. When it comes to making money, there is a huge gap between making money in Hollywood.

He has repeatedly given shares to Beijing Film Studio. In fact, the main reason is to make good friends with Han Sanping. So far, the results are very good. Shanghai Film has always been one of the best in the country. Even if it is not as good as China Film in the future, it is still an important force and worth making friends with.

Living in the country is all about being worldly, and it is best to develop a lot of friends. Naturally, he understands this truth.

Wu Yuchen picked up a cup of tea and touched it with Lao Zhu: Mr. Zhu, thank you for your teaching! I will seriously consider your suggestion when I get back.

Haha, it's not a teaching at all. I'm just a little older and have more experience! Lao Zhu never acted like a senior in front of Wu Yuchen during the whole process, and Wu Yuchen was very embarrassed when dealing with him. Comfortable.

When he returned to the room at night, Wu Yuchen was about to make a phone call when he felt Jiang Qinqin holding his neck. He lowered his head and saw Jiang Qinqin's eyes filled with admiration.

Husband, you are so awesome!

Wu Yuchen raised his eyebrows, hugged her waist, squeezed it gently and said with a smile:

Whether I am powerful or not, it's not like you haven't experienced it~

Jiang Qinqin spat at him, and then continued: This is the boss of Shanghai Film Studio! He has always said good things to you~

Although Jiang Qinqin knew that Wu Yuchen was powerful before, she was surrounded by classmates or small characters like Fan Bingbing who praised her. Today, when she saw a person like Zhu Yongde chatting and laughing with Wu Yuchen and trying his best to win over her, it was still... first. At this point, she also understood that the circle Wu Yuchen was in now was already higher than hers!

Wu Yuchen also understood the meaning of Jiang Qinqin's words, and thought to himself, you haven't seen the scene where Han San and I are brothers!

Seeing Jiang Qinqin's face full of peach blossoms and her charming appearance, Wu Yuchen naturally put aside any thoughts of making a phone call, picked up her soft and delicate body and rolled onto the bed.

The morning sun shines on the bed through the gaps between the curtains.

Wu Yuchen stretched out beside the bed and looked back at Jiang Qinqin, who was covered with a thin quilt on the bed, outlining her swollen and well-proportioned figure. The exposed round jade legs were crystal clear and flawless. The corners of her raised mouth showed that she was serious. Dreaming sweetly, as if still recalling last night's experience.

Wu Yuchen was still full of energy, but thinking of Jiang Qinqin's begging for mercy last night, he let her go this time. He probably wouldn't wake up until midnight.

Wu Yuchen didn't want to disturb Jiang Qinqin, so he walked outside with his cell phone and made a call.
