In the afternoon, in a classroom in the Jingying teaching building, students from the 96 acting class gathered together and chatted with people they had just met in the dormitory. Today is the first group meeting since their class registration, and they are waiting for the arrival of their head teacher, Teacher Cui.

Hey, Xiao Ming, are you from Daocheng? I heard that people from Shandong Province can drink. Can we find time to have a meal together? Shi Guanghui, a big man from Northeast China, put his arms around Huang Xiaoming and said.

Huang Xiaoming blinked his big eyes and said seriously: My mother doesn't let me drink.

Shi Guanghui choked up at this moment. He felt that Huang Xiaoming was perfunctory, but his expression was very sincere. Is this such a good performance?

At this moment, another young man walked in at the door, attracting the attention of everyone in the room. Shi Guanghui immediately touched Zu Feng next to him: Zu Feng, is this guy from your dormitory?

Zu Feng shook his head: I've never seen it.

At this time, Huang Xiaoming interrupted: I have seen him at the door of the dormitory before!

On the other side, Zhang Jiabei pulled Yan Danchen to cover his mouth and said, Hey, this one is more handsome than the one with yellow hair in the back!

Sitting alone at the back of the classroom, Chen Kun, who had dyed blond hair, looked at Wu Yuchen, whom he had met a few months ago, and wondered why he was in their class.

Zhao Wei was also surprised. She still remembered that Wu Yuchen was standing next to her and Liu Ye when they were auditioning for the sketch at Yangxi No. 3. She didn't expect that he would now be their classmate.

Wu Yuchen strutted forward and smiled at these freshmen, but without stopping, he walked directly onto the podium, picked up the chalk and wrote a few big characters on the blackboard.

Then he turned around and put down the chalk, knocked on the table, and looked at everyone: Hello everyone, my name is Wu Yuchen, and I am the assistant counselor of your class!

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they all sat up straight. They thought this handsome guy was a classmate, but they didn't expect him to be a teacher!

Wu Yuchen chuckled: Then let's all introduce yourselves one by one and get familiar with each other.

He pointed casually: Yan Danchen, you should start first.

Yan Danchen, who was sitting at the front, quickly stood up and bowed nervously: Hello, Teacher Wu, hello everyone, my name is Yan Danchen, from southern Hunan...

After Yan Danchen finished speaking, Wu Yuchen said with a smile: Very good, but Danchen, have you had good food these past few months? You can't ignore your figure just because you passed the art exam!

Yan Danchen was a little put on at this time, with a chubby face. She looked quite innocent and cute, but it obscured her beautiful appearance when she later played Chang'e. After hearing this, she nodded a little shyly before sitting down.

Hello, Teacher Wu, hello everyone, my name is Zhao Wei...

Yeah. Zhao Wei, be more careful in your work in the future and don't be rough all the time. If you lose something as important as your admission ticket, what will you do if something big happens in the future?

This is different from the joke with Yan Danchen just now, with a bit of criticism.

Zhao Wei opened her mouth, but did not dare to refute. After all, she had indeed lost her admission ticket before the exam. According to regulations, she was not eligible to continue taking the exam. If Cui Xinqin hadn't seen her crying pitifully in the end and took her to get a new one, she wouldn't have studied.

Just like that, everyone stood up and introduced themselves. Wu Yuchen either nodded or said a few words.

Hello everyone, my name is Chen Kun. Chen Kun said nothing.

Wu Yuchen thought that Chen Kun was really a bit withdrawn at this time, but he didn't care and said:

Chen Kun, you need to cut your hair, otherwise you won't be able to participate in the military training tomorrow.

Chen Kun nodded and sat down honestly. He only dyed it recently at the request of guests who listened to music in karaoke bars and nightclubs, but it must be because schooling is important.

At this time, the stool clattered, and Huang Xiaoming stood up, grinning with big white teeth:

Hello, Teacher Wu, hello everyone, I'm Huang Xiaoming, from Daocheng. People around me say there's nothing wrong with me. The only shortcoming is...

Huang Xiaoming shook his head: Not cool enough!

At this time, the whole class couldn't help but burst into laughter. Even Wu Yuchen almost couldn't hold it back. He always felt that this young man was a bit of a loser now. But when he looked at Huang Xiaoming's serious eyes, he couldn't tell whether this guy was showing off on purpose just now.

Wu Yuchen coughed and then said, Well, you should be careful when crossing the road in the future.

On the eve of Huang Xiaoming's art exam, a car ran directly over his foot while crossing the road, crushing and fractured his toes, but he didn't even notice. The owner of the car got out of the car to check his injuries. Huang Xiaoming took two steps and let people go when he thought he was fine. Who knew that after a few more steps he couldn't move, so he was carried over for the art exam.

Thank you for your concern, teacher! Huang Xiaoming sat down with a silly smile.

Next, Zu Feng, Guo Xiaodong, and others stood up to introduce themselves one after another, and waited until everyone in the circle had finished introducing themselves.

Wu Yuchen nodded with satisfaction, and then walked off the podium with his hands behind his back:

Very good, you will be your closest classmates in the next four years, and you will spend the most enjoyable and memorable college years in your life.

I have something to remind everyone first, don’t think that you can sit back and relax and become a big star after entering an acting class. According to past experience, if you can become famous for two or three people, it is already very good!

But as long as you study hard in school, you will have no problem making a living and supporting your family in the future.

Also, acting is important, but being a human being is more important than acting. If you want to learn acting, you must first learn to be a human being!

Wu Yuchen said and deliberately glanced at Zhao Wei. She quickly straightened her back and sat upright.

Wu Yuchen glanced around and saw that the atmosphere was slightly serious, then he smiled and said:

A few months have passed since the art exam. Let me see if you have made any progress during this time.

Just at this moment, he walked up to Huang Xiaoming and patted him on the shoulder: Come on, Xiao Ming, come to the front.

Huang Xiaoming was very obedient and followed Wu Yuchen to the front of the classroom.

Xiao Ming, I think you are quite an honest kid. Show off your temper for the teacher.

Huang Xiaoming scratched his head: Tell the teacher, I won't lose my temper.

Then can you have a quarrel with others? Wu Yuchen asked again.

Tell the teacher, my mother said that quarreling is not a good boy!

Now the students sitting there covered their mouths and started laughing. Now they can see that this Huang Xiaoming is just like a childish child.

Wu Yuchen also thought in his heart, this child is so well protected by his family!

Then...then can you, um, perform a cricket-catching show?

Huang Xiaoming said with an innocent expression: Teacher, there are no crickets in our island city.

If there are no crickets, there will always be butterflies, right?

But butterflies are only found in parks!

The students in the class finally couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.

Wu Yuchen was almost helpless by him:

Just think this is a park, can you arrest me?

Huang Xiaoming didn't say anything anymore. He turned around and looked around. Then he suddenly put his hands and feet on the ground, sticking his butt out. This posture was like practicing toad kung fu, and then he kicked his feet and jumped forward.

Wu Yuchen didn't even react to this series of actions. The whole class was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

However, Huang Xiaoming's movements didn't stop. After he finished the attack, he lay on the ground and pressed his hands. Then he slowly stood up with his hands covered, opened a gap in front of him, and made an exaggerated happy smile on his face.

After the performance, Huang Xiaoming looked at Wu Yuchen with a smile: Teacher, how was my performance?

Wu Yuchen looked at the child in front of him who looked like a child begging for praise. He really couldn't bear to undermine his confidence, so he patted him on the back and said sincerely:

Xiao Ming, I think you still have a lot of room for improvement. But the teacher has a suggestion for you. If you don't practice enough basic skills for two and a half years, it's best not to go out to take on roles!

Huang Xiaoming giggled happily when he heard this: Thank you teacher for your guidance!

Okay, go back and sit down.

After Huang Xiaoming went back and sat down, Shi Guanghui next to him also knew what kind of temper he was. He held back a smile and gave him a thumbs up: Xiao Ming, I really belong to you!

Huang Xiaoming chuckled. He had been pampered at home since he was a child. During school, he was also pampered by female classmates and female teachers because of his good looks and well-behaved nature. He didn't think everyone was laughing at him. So that later Zhao Wei felt that he was childish and ignored him. He felt aggrieved and ran to ask Cui Xinqin why, but was kicked away directly by Teacher Cui.

Wu Yuchen felt that it was enough to come here to play, so he knocked on the table to ask everyone to quiet down:

Does any of you volunteer to be a monitor?

Seeing that no one below took the initiative, he said directly: Then I will order one, Zu Feng, you are the big brother, and you will be the squad leader from now on.

Ah? Zu Feng was stunned.

Okay, now your squad leader Zu Feng will organize a free exchange for you, and I will invite Teacher Cui over.

After Wu Yuchen finished speaking, he called Zu Feng to the front, and then walked out of the classroom in a big way.

Zu Feng, the newly appointed squad leader, didn't have much credibility yet. As soon as Wu Yuchen left the house, there was an explosion of discussion in the squad.

I thought it was our classmate, but I didn't expect it to be the counselor!

That's right, why is the counselor so young!

Are the counselors in our film school so handsome?

Why do I feel like he kept staring at me when he was talking just now? It made me nervous!

I think what Teacher Wu said is very good. He also taught us how to be a good person~

Xiao Ming, are there really no crickets in your island city?

Just as everyone was discussing happily, Cui Xinqin walked in, and the classroom suddenly became quiet again.

When Cui Xinqin saw Zu Feng standing alone in front of him, he couldn't help but asked out of curiosity: Zu Feng, what are you doing?

Teacher Cui, Teacher Wu asked me to be the monitor, I...

Wait, Teacher Wu? Which Teacher Wu? Cui Xinqin asked with confusion on her face.

He's the assistant teacher of our class, look. Zu Feng pointed at the blackboard.

When Cui Xinqin saw the three characters Wu Yuchen written on the blackboard, she opened her mouth and didn't realize what was going on for a while.

Wu Yuchen walked back happily. It was quite fun to tease the new students in Class 96, especially Huang Xiaoming, who really gave him a big surprise. As for Teacher Cui, I helped her choose the monitor, so she will definitely be very happy.

On the first Friday night after school started, Wu Yuchen took Jiang Qinqin to a nearby movie theater.

It wasn't that there was any new movie that the two of them wanted to watch, but The Night the Comet Came.

At the ticket window, Wu Yuchen asked for two tickets, and then asked the conductor:

Sister, are there many people watching this movie?

The ticket sales lady is not a dull person either: It's okay. It's only been a few days, and at the best time I can get 70% of the seats. Today is the first weekend, and the tickets may still be sold out.

Wu Yuchen nodded. It seems that the series of publicity stunts such as 18-year-old Berlin Golden Bear Director and Sydney Film Festival Best Film on the poster outside can really fool people.

After Wu Yuchen and Jiang Qinqin entered, there were already a lot of people sitting in the theater, most of them young people. The two of them found a seat casually and sat down. In fact, the two of them had watched it countless times when it was screened in Sydney. The main purpose of coming back this time was to see how the audience would react.

At this time they heard the voices of several students sitting in front of them talking.

Is this movie good to watch? It's both science fiction and suspense. Can this be related? And can we also make science fiction movies in our country?

Not only is it suspenseful, but it is also absolutely sci-fi! I was quite skeptical when I came to see it the day before yesterday, but I was stunned after watching it. I didn't expect that a sci-fi movie could be made like this!

And let me tell you, later on you have to try to remember their dialogue and details from the beginning. I came back to watch it again just to see these foreshadowings!

Hey, is it because of this movie that you came to me to ask about Schrödinger's Cat?

That's right, you'll know when you see it later!

Jiang Qinqin and Wu Yuchen couldn't help but smile at each other after hearing this. After all, it was a movie that they worked hard to make. They were very happy to be released and recognized by their own people.

After 90 minutes, the movie came to an end.

Is this the end? I thought Amy was going to kill her boyfriend too!

This is the suspense left, but the look in her eyes at the end will definitely kill me!

It's about whether to kill or not. You have misunderstood the point. Shouldn't you be paying attention to the fact that there is Amy on the other side of the phone when her boyfriend answers the phone? I really didn't expect that science fiction and suspense can be so combined!

Yeah, the director and screenwriter are so good at editing. They can think of killing themselves! I'm convinced!

What are you making up? Didn't you read the explanation of Schrödinger's cat and quantum mechanics? Hey Li Zhen, do your physics majors study parallel spaces?

Ah? I haven't learned that much about this yet. Maybe I can study it after I get a Ph.D.?

Come on, let's go against each other. How many times have the eight of them exchanged!

After the movie ended, there were still many people in the theater who were unwilling to leave, and the discussion was lively, especially among a group of boys.

This is the advantage of arranging this film to be shown near universities. Students can basically understand it and have a strong interest and desire to explore it.

However, Wu Yuchen had already taken advantage of this moment to drag Jiang Qinqin away. If someone recognized Jiang Qinqin as the heroine, it might be a bit troublesome.

Walking outside, Jiang Qinqin happily held Wu Yuchen's arm and asked, I see they are discussing very enthusiastically. Will our movie be a hit?

Wu Yuchen thought for a while and said:

It's hard to say. This cinema is close to universities and there are many college students. If I change to another cinema, it may not have the same effect. But now it is much better than I expected. Maybe you can see it when you visit other universities in the next two days. There are people asking for your autograph!

Jiang Qinqin chuckled upon hearing this, and then asked: What about the box office?

I can't figure it out anymore. I'll ask about it on Monday.

For small movies like this, there is currently no domestic box office statistics for the first time. For example, it has been released in Beijing for three or four days, and it may have just been released in Shandong province today.

I thought you knew everything~ Jiang Qinqin smiled.

Wu Yuchen hugged Jiang Qinqin tightly, hugged her and kissed her:

I don't know about other things, but I know you must miss me.

Seeing that Jiang Qinqin didn't speak, Wu Yuchen pinched her and asked with a smile:

do you miss me?

Think~

how to think?

I want you to love me~

When Wu Yuchen saw Jiang Qinqin's charming and silky face, he hugged her and headed straight to the nearest hotel.

On Monday, Wu Yuchen made a call to China Film.

Hey, Director Wu, we were just about to tell you that The Night the Comet Came currently has a total box office of 5.12 million!

Can you tell me more about it?

No problem. It was released in Beijing for 5 days, with a box office of 1.02 million; in Shanghai, it was released for 5 days, with a box office of 730,000; Yangcheng...

Wu Yuchen listened and found out that Beijing and Shanghai are areas with the most universities and developed economies, so the box office is naturally higher, while other areas are much lower. But the total of 15 cities also contributed more than 5 million in box office, which is very good.

Will there be more copies?

Every additional copy will increase the box office. In order to make money from the copies, movie theaters will try their best to arrange for them to be broadcast, unless it is really bad and no one will watch it.

Director Wu, I think there will be more copies. I heard that it's selling well and some cities are asking for copies, but I guess there will only be 40 or 50 more copies at most. You know our environment.

Wu Yuchen nodded. The other person was talking about piracy. Piracy is not that fast at the moment, but if a movie becomes popular in a place, there will definitely be piracy in a week.

Manager Liu, let me ask you again, how long can The Night When the Comet Comes stay in theaters?

Depending on your situation, it could be as short as two months or as long as three months.

At present, the output of domestic films is not high, and the schedule is far less intense than it would be twenty years ago. Some films, such as Red Zone and True Lies, have been on hold for more than half a year.

Wu Yuchen did his own calculations, so the box office of this movie can reach tens of millions. Although it is still far behind the 33 million that ranked tenth at the box office in 1996, it has far exceeded his expectations. After all, The cost of this movie was only 150,000.

As for the total box office, we can only know it after two or three months of settlement.

He has already informed the crew individually about the release of the movie The Night the Comet Came. Now some people can't get together, so he can only let everyone watch it individually. But I think the box office and audience feedback should bring them a lot of surprises.

What Master Huang said was his personal experience, and what his classmates and Teacher Cui told him.
