As people get older, they lose energy and sleep less.

Wu Baige went to bed very early last night, so he woke up at about 5 o'clock today.

If you are in Hong Kong, then go for a walk, see the scenery, have morning tea or something.

And now he is in the capital. Although he doesn't like the dryness in the north, he also knows that this place will bring him enough pension money.

It was very cold outside this morning. Although there were many old men of similar age to him who would go for a walk in the park, Wu Baige wholeheartedly did not like to be in the company of those people.

It's not because of anything else, it's just like, if I keep a bird cage and hang out with them, I feel like I'll be really old.

He feels that he is not old yet and he can still do well.

Yesterday, the first day of the Lunar New Year, this was an opportunity to prove myself.

Before... I waited for three years, just for an opportunity!

Now he doesn't have to wait three years at all. He has many opportunities.

Wu Baige himself thinks the performance of the movie "Red Cliff" is pretty good.

However, it received a lot of criticism.

What do those idiots on the internet know!

Of course, a great director like himself should not pay attention to those doubts on the Internet.

Do you know how to make a movie?

Do you know how to use a camera?

Do you know how to make a set?

Do you know how to find money?

Humph! I don’t know anything!

Just say it!

Although he told himself not to pay attention to it, Wu Baige still couldn't let it go.

However, many directors in Hong Kong are actually not very affected by the so-called Internet voices.

To put it simply, these people still insist on their own style and have their own things. They don’t care much about what others say, not just on the Internet.

Just like Ann Hui, she has always made movies according to her own ideas. Even if people from the Hong Kong Film Union criticize her, she will not change it.

It is true that some Hong Kong filmmakers are so stubborn, but there are also many who know how to adapt to the changing circumstances.

Just like that Fatty Wang.

Forget it, ignore that guy.

Wu Baige thinks very well, he will still stick to himself, but he still has a disdain for this capital city and Hong Kong filmmakers like Fatty Wang who have settled here.

In this place, if you make money and leave, that's fine.

With this in mind, I had already finished washing up and had some breakfast.

Then I plan to exercise some more.

As for regular activities such as reading newspapers, he doesn't like reading mainland newspapers.

As for what happened to my latest masterpiece... I probably won't have any work to do until the afternoon.

It's still early, so don't worry.

Although Wu Baige said he was dissatisfied with old age, his life schedule and work rhythm were that of an old man.

But today, something changed.

"Teacher! It's not good."

"What? Why are you so panicked?"

"Something really happened."

"What happened?"

"It didn't exceed 100 million yesterday."

"No? What's the problem then?"

"ah?"

"Why are you so surprised?"

"this……"

It was Su Zhaobin calling, and his beloved disciple was very anxious on the phone.

Wu Baige didn't understand why he was like this at all, and even wanted to scold him.

How can you mess with me if you are so impatient?

Not over 100 million?

What's the big deal? Isn't this normal?

How many movies can make over 100 million yuan on the first day in mainland China's movie market?

However, after all, Wu Baige is not a fool, he wants to know some details.

"So, how much is the box office?"

Su Zhaobin paused for a moment, and after about 20 seconds, he said:

"So far, the box office is more than 87 million."

When Wu Baige looked at the time, for now, today's box office should still be in a state of uncertainty.

As far as the current movie market in our country is concerned, there are still not many midnight shows. Moreover, it is the Chinese New Year, and even fewer people go out to watch movies in the middle of the night.

Therefore, as far as box office statistics for the Spring Festival stalls are concerned, by 10 p.m., it can basically be said to be the results for the day.

If there is a huge box office growth after this...this, this...

Everyone who understands understands.

As a veteran in the film and television industry, Wu Baige came to the Spring Festival track for the first time, but he naturally understood the rules of this track very quickly.

So, as far as this data goes…

"Isn't it great!"

After hearing this, Su Zhaobin on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time.

In fact, "Taiping Wheel" experienced a very strange growth from midnight last night to early this morning.

Su Zhaobin knew very well that someone must have done something to him. This person...

In fact, it's really not difficult to guess, it must be Pony's side.

These days, it's really a good choice to pay for the box office. On the one hand, it can increase your exposure. The amount of box office you get is good news.

On the other hand, there are ticket reimbursements.

The cost of raking in box office is low, and you can even make some money at some point. In other words... it can also be used as a disguised form of money laundering.

Of course, there are too many details here, and Su Zhaobin himself doesn’t know much about them.

But if this idea of ​​raking in box office exists, then doesn’t it mean that... the old movie collapsed?

The key is that Su Zhaobin heard a piece of news today, which surprised him greatly.

But this matter... given the current situation, how can I tell the teacher?

Wu Baige is still very proud, he thinks this box office is very good.

Yes, coming to the Spring Festival stall for the first time, I do feel a sense of self-confidence.

Fortunately, Su Zhaobin over there thought of a way to talk things out.

"Teacher, there will be a meeting later, will you come?"

Meeting?

Although Wu Baige thought this was a bit strange, he should go as he should.

What would happen?

…

"What? Not over 100 million?"

"Big Brother Long's movies have exceeded 100 million yuan!"

"You mean, I should be happy?"

"Well...my brother, we are also participating in this film."

"Oh, that's right, but..."
