Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

On June 29, 2001, "The Fault in Our Stars" was released in Hollywood.

Disney Pictures attaches great importance to the promotion and distribution of "The Fault in Our Stars".

Shanhe, the original author and screenwriter, is naturally the focus of publicity.

In the week before the release, Shanhe's original works "A Little Red Flower for You" and "Parasite" were once again reviewed and reviewed by European and American media.

The rumored relationship between heroine Anne Hathaway and Shan He has become even more popular.

Even "Run!" The news that "Dad" has set off a movie-watching craze in China has also been widely publicized by the media.

On June 29, "The Fault in Our Stars" was released simultaneously in 3,250 theaters and more than 4,000 big screens in North America.

On the first day of release, it immediately triggered a movie-going craze. The box office on the first day was US$19.7 million, just one step away from 20 million US dollars, and it topped the North American box office rankings.

On Saturday, "The Fault in Our Stars" continued to explode, with box office exceeding 20 million, reaching $21.4 million.

On Sunday, the box office was down, with $18.4 million.

The box office of "The Fault in Our Stars" exceeded $60 million in its first weekend, giving Disney Pictures a surprise beyond expectations.

"The Fault in Our Stars" performed extremely well at the box office and received good reviews.

With a positive rating of 89% and a Rotten Tomatoes freshness index of 91%, "The Fault in Our Stars" has aroused praise from the North American media.

Bruckheimer took the North American box office report and carefully browsed the box office statistics sent back from cities in various states, feeling ecstatic in his heart.

The investment in "The Fault in Our Stars" was less than US$250 million, and the total investment including pre-publicity was only US$40 million.

The North American box office in the first week has recovered all costs. According to Bruckheimer's estimate, the North American box office of "The Fault in Our Stars" will be at least 150 million US dollars, and the global box office is guaranteed to be 300 million US dollars.

Bruckheimer was a big success, and Disney Pictures made a lot of money, and its stock value immediately rose by 0.3%.

Anne Hathaway has become famous and has touched the bottom line of Hollywood's first-line actresses. There is an endless stream of scripts for her to star in, including some big-budget projects.

For the next four working days, the box office of "The Fault in Our Stars" hovered around 8 million.

The box office in its first full week of release is just one step away from breaking through 100 million US dollars.

This time, Disney Pictures' small and generous operation has attracted widespread criticism from the North American media. The copyright of Shanhe's novel adaptation has been put on the forefront of all Hollywood movies.

Shanhe had just walked out of the Shanghai Airport when he received Bruckheimer's call.

During this period of intense study and Olympic bid committee work, he seemed a little tired.

Shanhe glanced at the caller ID and answered the call.

"Qiu, the box office of "The Fault in Our Stars" exceeded US$60 million in its first weekend. Haha, Qiu, we succeeded, it was a huge success!"

"So many!" Shanhe was shocked by Bruckheimer's words.

"Based on the current box office trends and favorable reviews, the North American box office of "The Fault in Our Stars" will be at least 150 million US dollars, and the global box office will be at least 300 million US dollars! Qiu, I knew you were an incredible young man, and Hollywood has been conquered by you. !”

"Jerry, we conquered Hollywood. It's a pity that I can't celebrate with you live. It's great. To be honest, I'm a little surprised!" Shanhe was a little surprised. He only remembered that "The Fault in Our Stars" was successful. The box office was unclear, and the time was more than ten years in advance, so he didn't know for sure!

""The Fault in Our Stars" has greatly exceeded Disney's box office estimate. Qiu, your bonus this time is probably more than your copyright income. I am looking forward to "Parasite" even more now. I I’m very glad that I flew to China to meet you, haha, my vision surprised even me!”

"Hahaha! In China you will be called Bole. When will "The Fault in Our Stars" be released in China?"

"It will be released around mid-July at the same time as Neon Stick Country. I guess I won't be able to come to East Asia. Europe is the focus of Disney's global promotion."

"Okay! I don't have any free time recently. I'm in Moscow in mid-July. In a few days I have to take the college entrance examination, which is equivalent to the ACT and SAT exams in your country M!"

"Haha! My poor Qiu, I almost forgot that you are still a little kid!"

"Really, I forgot too, you are already an old man!"

Qu Ling listened very anxiously. He probably guessed the content of their call, but was eager to know the specific content. Seeing that their call was about to end, he quickly said to Shanhe, "Let me have a few words with Jerry!"

Shanhe nodded, "Jerry, Qu is right next to me. She needs to say a few words to you!"

After speaking, he handed the phone to Qu Ling.

Shanhe took the luggage trolley from Qu Ling's hand, and was still surprised by Bruckheimer's news. "The Fault in Our Stars" actually broke out so violently. It must be the change brought about by my butterfly!

A few minutes later, Qu Ling returned the phone with a look of surprise on his face, "Xiaohe, the rights to adapt your novel will be valuable in the future! The Fault in Our Stars has become such a hit. I feel it is better than "Send You a Flower" "Little Red Flower" is much worse!"

Shanhe laughed when he heard this, "Aunt Qu, there are differences between Eastern and Western cultures. Yours is not from M country. You see, the domestic box office of "The Fault in Our Stars" is not much better!"

"That's hard to say. Your works have been very popular recently, not to mention the fact that "The Fault in Our Stars" has done well at the box office. The media has to write a big book about it!" Qu Ling took the luggage trolley. retorted.

Just as Shanhe was about to reply, Qiu Chuxi's bouncing figure came into view.

"Brother, brother! I'm here, I'm here!"

Following Qiu Chuxi's loud and happy voice, Shanhe saw his family.

The family gathered neatly at the exit of the passage.

Qiu Chuxi hugged Shanhe's waist and refused to let go.

Yu Zhengchong and Master Xie burst out laughing. Qiu Jiang took the luggage trolley from Shan He's hand, and Xie Meiyu looked at her son's increasingly angular face with red eyes.

"Son, why have you lost so much weight and you are still growing!" Xie Meiyu touched Shanhe's cheek distressedly.

"Mom, I'm not thin. It's a sign of growing up. I'm not skinny. But I miss you while I'm out there cooking steamed carp with chili noodles. Mom, I miss you very much!" Shanhe's emotions were visible when he saw it. The family members also became excited.

"The house has prepared your favorite dried carp, dried bamboo shoots, and bacon. Mom will cook whatever you want!" Xie Meiyu's eyes became redder and redder.

"Okay! My son is back. Let's go home first and let him sit down and talk slowly! Xixi, take your brother and take him home!" Qiu Jiang said from behind.

After Shanhe heard his father's words, he looked at Yu Zheng and the old couple with his sister in his arms, "Master and Master, I'm back!"

"Haha! Just come back. Xiaohe, you did a good job. We are all proud of you!" Yu Zheng rushed forward and patted Shanhe on the shoulder.

The teacher's wife also smiled happily and said: "Your mother, your sister, I miss you so much. She worked hard all night last night! Go home quickly and take good care of her. Your mother is right, she has lost a lot of weight!" "

After parting ways with Qu Ling's family at the airport gate, the family returned to their small Western-style building in Shanghai.

The happy gathering and conversation between Shanhe and his family lasted until lunch. During this period, Qiu Chuxi and Doudou kept pestering Shanhe and making the whole family laugh.

"Qiu Chuxi, let your brother come over for dinner. I don't know how to feel sorry for someone at this age. I just watch you wheezing all day long!" Xie Meiyu walked out of the kitchen and pulled Qiu Chuxi, who was obsessed with Shanhe, to the dining table, "Son , look what mom and mistress have cooked for you, they are all your favorite dishes, eat more quickly, then go back to the room and have a good sleep, you will make my son tired!"

Shanhe stood up and touched Doudou, the Labrador next to him, "Master, dad, let's eat first, and I'll talk to you slowly tonight! I miss my mother's craftsmanship!"

"Haha! Eat! Your mother is right, come back and take good care of yourself!"

Let Shanhe eat heartily with the unique warm-tasting meals at home.

After the meal, he was pushed into the room by his mother and fell asleep deeply.

As soon as Shanhe opened his eyes, he saw Qiu Chuxi and Doudou.

"Brother, you're awake! Look, Doudou won't go out, we miss you!" Qiu Chuxi came over when her brother woke up.

Shanhe stood up with a smile and pinched the bridge of Qiu Chuxi's nose, "Haha, I think you are just thinking about what your brother brought you!"

"Brother, I'm in fourth grade. I'm not a child. You have to look at me with admiration!" Qiu Chuxi shook his head and shook off Shanhe's hand.

"Really? How did your final exam go?"

Before Shanhe could ask further questions, Qiu Chuxi turned around and ran outside, "Mom, my brother is awake!"

Shan He laughed out loud at his sister's actions.

From afternoon to evening, Shanhe kept telling his family about his experiences after separation.

The family members were constantly amazed, saddened and happy!

"Xiaohe, are you confident about this college entrance examination? Don't make any mistakes!" Yu Zheng asked Shanhe.

"It's not a big problem. Aunt Qu found me a tutor in the capital. I may be a little behind in math, but I'm fine in other areas. There's no problem if I pass the art score!"

"That's good!"

Qiu Jiang also asked from the side: "You have finished the college entrance examination and will fly to Moscow soon. When will you be able to return to the magic city?"

"I don't know, let's see the results of the Olympic bid! I think I'm very sure this time, I guess I won't come back so soon!" Shanhe answered his father.

"Qiu Jiang, why don't we go to the capital and wait for Xiaohe? No matter what the result of the Olympic bid is, I want to be with my son!" Xie Meiyu was a little worried about Shanhe. If the result was not as expected, it would be a huge blow to her son. .

"Okay, you have a good idea. Teacher, Mrs., we will set off with Xiaohe when the time comes. He will go to Moscow, and we will go to the capital!" Qiu Jiang realized what his wife meant.

Yu Zhengchong naturally understood the meaning of the old couple and nodded in agreement: "This is a good suggestion. Let's go to the capital to see it. We haven't seen it for more than ten years. I'm looking forward to it!"

In the next few days, Shanhe basically reviewed his homework at home. During this period, he notified Hu Ge. The two friends reunited a few months later and had a very happy chat.

"How sure are you of Beijing's bid for the Olympics this time? We have been paying attention to you. The old director will basically tell you the news in every class meeting. The whole school's expectations for you are higher than you can imagine. The principal looked proud when he held the whole school meeting. Tell me all kinds of anecdotes about your time in Lausanne!" Hu Ge asked seriously after the two joked with each other.

After listening to this, Shanhe replied with a straight face: "I think it can happen. To be honest, the entire Beijing Olympics Bid Committee is under great pressure. Just like you said, the whole country is waiting for us to bring back good news. My dad also said that Fujian Basically every household in Beixian County has prepared firecrackers. In my hometown, even the bench dragons are prepared, and every household has put up lanterns, just waiting for the good news!"

"I believe in you, Shanhe. Since we met, you have been moving forward and never stopped. You will definitely succeed this time! I will bet on my college entrance examination results!" Hu Ge responded with a solemn expression.

Shanhe was immediately comforted by Hu Ge, "Haha! Old Hu, your results are not as reliable as the Olympic bid!"

"I've been making up lessons for a few months, you have to look at me with admiration!"

"Hahaha! My sister said so too! You should teach her this word!"

"I'm much more reliable than Xixi, okay..."

On July 7, Shanhe and Hu Ge entered the college entrance examination room of Modou No. 2 Middle School together.

At this time, both the Magic City and the capital were extremely hot, and the whole country seemed to be in a state of agitation!
