Chapter 36 Meeting again

With the popularity of the movie "Chill", the box office of "Embroidered Spring Knife" continued to decline. When the Hollywood disaster blockbuster "2012" was released on the 20th, the daily box office dropped to less than 1 million.

[Tai Chi 2], which was on the rise during the same period, was even worse. The film schedule was squeezed out, and the box office dropped to single digits.

And my good friend Li Xian's movie "A Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" even became a double-destroyed movie, with no film schedule and no box office. How can it be so miserable?

This is the reality of theaters. If it can bring benefits to them, they will make more movies for you. If they cannot attract audiences to watch the movies, they will have no choice but to remove them from the shelves.

Even if you have to keep a certain schedule due to face or prior agreement, I will arrange a midnight show for you and see if anyone will watch it.

[Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart] This is the situation now. Popular movies can have an attendance rate of 40% to 50%.

If we schedule a movie for you and only 3 or 5 people come in, won’t this delay us from making money?

So what if it's a good movie? Cinemas are in business, not charity.

As of the release of "Embroidered Spring Knife", it has been in theaters for 31 days, with a total box office of 226.8 million yuan nationwide.

[Tai Chi 2] grossed 94.62 million nationwide, nearly 20 million less than the original box office.

"Thousands of Arrows Pierce the Heart" was removed from the shelves in advance, and the total box office during its release was only 2.491 million yuan.

Its director Wang Jing is also a professor at the Film Academy. Director Wang wants to make another movie after this movie, so it will be a problem to attract investment.

Lu Yang, who was also graduated from the film school, was very happy at this time.

The phone calls were off the hook. Many film and television companies were looking for him, hoping that he could become the director of their own company. The next best thing was to get his investment share in future movies, or to invite him to direct their own movies.

Although Gu Wei's exposure as the leading actor is worse than Lu Yang's, his reputation in the industry is far inferior.

He is just an actor, but Lu Yang is the director.

In the entertainment industry, regardless of the most famous ones, the ones with high national popularity are the big stars and actors.

But in terms of status, he is far behind the great directors.

This is determined by the relationship between supply and demand. No matter how popular an actor is, he must increase his exposure through acting to enhance his status. Resources are always needed.

The director is the supplier of resources and the producer of film and television resources.

To put it bluntly, stars have to beg the director. Of course, everything cannot be generalized, but this is generally the case.

Moreover, the director is someone who can directly bring benefits to the film and television company.

For example, Huayi was once the leader of China's private film companies. It has experienced many ups and downs over the years. The time when Wang Jinghua left with a group of actors, Huayi was almost wiped out.

Yet it still stands, on what basis? It just relies on the great director Feng Xiaogang.

[Xiuchundao] was a big hit, and the biggest beneficiary was director Lu Yang.

At the end of November, China Film Corporation organized a celebration party for the film.

All the main cast and crew of "Xiuchundao" were invited, as well as some friends from the media who contributed during the announcement.

Zhang Tianai was already there when Gu Wei arrived at the scene. Today she was wearing the light-colored dress that Gu Wei bought for her. Her exposed skin was white and translucent, as if it was glowing.

Wearing a sapphire blue Cartier blue balloon on your hand, your temperament is even more elegant.

Seeing Gu Wei, Zhang Tianai walked over.

"You look beautiful today." Gu Wei looked at her and praised with a smile.

"Thank you, how are you lately?" Zhang Tianai asked

"Fortunately, after I'm busy with the movie, I have some free time, attend classes at school, and refresh my phone. What about you?"

"Recently, some agencies have approached me one after another. I chose a large one with good conditions to join. The company found some scenes for me to film. I will go out to film in a few days."

Zhang Tianai said slowly.

"The road will be smoother after you have a company. I said, you will definitely become a big star in the future. If you have any trouble, just come to me for help." Gu Wei smiled and gave his promise.

"I will remember your words, Gu Wei, seriously, thank you.

Without you, I might still be the little model running around in advertisements. Just like you said, I will always remember you. "

After saying that, he separated from Gu Wei and each returned to his place.

The seats at the banquet are all arranged, and each table has a name. Of course, the leading actors and supporting actors will not sit at the same table.

If the two of them were together before, Gu Wei wouldn't care about this. At worst, he would move a stool and sit next to his girlfriend. He is also half an investor, and the banquet is considered his home venue, so he doesn't need to care about these rules.

But now that we are separated, let's be beautiful separately.

After the separation, Zhang Tianai was not as peaceful as she appeared on the surface.

When they first separated, it took her several days to get over the huge loss.

Of course she didn't blame Gu Wei, she knew it was her fault that they separated. Gu Wei made it very clear in his letter and gave her great face in the last two days of separation. Let them break up gracefully.

She couldn't keep him, and she didn't have the face to keep him.

Although the two only got along for just over 4 months, Gu Wei left a deep imprint on her heart.

Be it emotionally or physically.

She didn't know whether her feelings for Gu Wei would fade away as time went by, or whether they would become stronger and more fragrant like wine.

After she cheered up, she secretly vowed that she would become famous and become a big star, and stand in front of him with a new attitude and identity when they met again.

As for her ex-boyfriend Li Zifeng, who caused her to become like this, this scumbag has blocked his phone number and deleted him on WeChat. If we meet again, I can only give him two words: Get out!

Next to Gu Wei's seat was the heroine Liu Yifei's seat. Liu Yifei had already taken her seat when he was chatting with Zhang Tianai.

"Have you finished talking to your girlfriend? You said that you two are together every day, and even if you separate for a while, you still have to be bored with your girlfriend for a while." Liu Yifei said with disgust.

"We haven't seen each other for more than ten days." Gu Wei said.

"Have you been out filming recently?" she asked curiously.

[Xiuchundao] Liu Yifei has been staying at home since the movie ended.

"No, I've been at school."

"Then you..." Liu Yifei hesitated.

"We broke up. Just over ten days ago." Gu Wei said lightly.

"Ah~ I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I just didn't know." Liu Yifei was a little flustered.

"It's okay, Sister Yifei. You don't need to apologize. Sister Tianai and I broke up peacefully and there are no complaints between us." Gu Wei said.

After hearing this, Liu Yifei was filled with gossip again. She asked carefully, "You two were so good before, why did you break up?"

Gu Wei glanced at her. He definitely couldn't tell her the real situation. Gu Wei had a principle that he would never speak ill of his ex-girlfriend in front of anyone.

He thought for a while and said, "We may not have compatible personalities. We met each other at the wrong time. It's normal for us to separate in the end."

‘Personal incompatibility’ is the universal reason for breaking up with a scumbag.

Liu Yifei pouted, Gu Wei said it beautifully, but she didn't believe a word of it.
