Chapter 148: Joke

"The Investiture of the Gods" was released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and negative news began to spread in the evening. Huayi made a decision the next morning, so at noon, negative news from the other three movies began to explode one after another.

# "Mechanical God of War 3" is still a plot, but there is no novelty at all. It will always be a plot of the United States coming out to save the world, which makes people speechless, and the big mecha has a little highlight.

#Fang Long seems to have already finished his life. Every year, there is a movie like this that changes the soup but not the medicine. Although the fighting scenes are still above a very high level, people are getting tired of watching them.

#The "Take Expert", which has been praised before, is just like this. This movie is purely for the sake of being funny. The plot is too simple. Such a movie can still be praised to God.

The navy, who came out of nowhere, slammed the entire New Year holiday, and many netizens cursed in various places because these navy soldiers were originally trying to make trouble, and the lines were full of the meaning of looking for trouble, which made people feel angry when they saw it.

So a big melee that everyone had expected began. Fans of the four movies chose to participate in the battle. The battle covered a wide range, and no movie could be spared.

Xu Wenruo was flying with Qi Yue to Lin'an for a celebration banquet. He was not aware of the online battle situation. Qi Yue and Xu Wenruo in the business class were talking in a low voice. At this time, there were not many passengers on the flight and they did not disturb others.

"To be honest, I never thought that the movie you made would actually win a box office of 2 billion."

Qi Yue looked at Xu Wenruo with inexplicable admiration. Although she knew that Xu Wenruo was very talented before, the influence of a song must be far inferior to that of a movie.

The fame and status gained by Xu Wenruo in this movie are even comparable to the influence of his release of two albums, which is also an important reason why people in the entertainment industry always want to join the big screen.

Once you can achieve some achievements on the big screen, you will immediately become a winner in life, with amazing returns, but accordingly, there are also many bones under the big screen, and success has never been smooth sailing.

"Actually, I didn't expect that my goal was only one billion. I didn't expect that the audience would support me so much, but I have to thank my colleagues for their support."

"Hey, do you think this movie has a chance to break the box office record of 3 billion."

Qi Yue's eyes flashed, and her eyes were full of expectations, looking forward to hearing an answer that satisfies her from Xu Wenruo.

"I think it's very difficult, maybe very close to 3 billion, but if you want to make a breakthrough in one fell swoop, it's not very likely."

Xu Wenruo glanced at Qi Yue and knew very well why Qi Yue asked this, because the current box office record of 3 billion was maintained by Huayi Media, and the producer of that movie was Qi Yuling, so Qi Yue was so concerned about whether the record could be broken.

If this box office record can really be broken, it will be a very happy thing for Qi Yue, which means she has achieved a hard-won victory.

Hearing Xu Wenruo's answer, a hint of disappointment flashed through Qi Yue's eyes, but she quickly adjusted and leaned her head gently on the back of the chair behind her, as if she wanted to find some support.

"Although it's very difficult to break the box office record this time, there is not a chance at all. You have to understand that this is just our first movie, and there are still many opportunities later. It's a matter of time before breaking this box office record. You need to have some confidence."

Xu Wenruo turned his head and looked at Qi Yue, his eyes still flashed with confidence, and his eyes that were clearly distinguished by black and white were very similar to the stars in the night sky.

Xu Wenruo's eyes made Qi Yue a little dazed. It seemed that since he met Xu Wenruo, his eyes had never changed. Whether it was the moment of becoming popular or the situation of being suppressed, Xu Wenruo was so calm and unstoppable.

It seems that nothing in this world can be difficult for him, and nothing can change his mentality. Qi Yue and Xu Wenruo have been working together for almost two years. Qi Yue has almost never encountered any troubles, because anything will be solved in Xu Wenruo's hands.

Therefore, when Qi Yue saw Xu Wenruo's confident gaze again, he couldn't help but feel a little turbulent in his heart, especially now that Xu Wenruo showed that he could defeat the giant Huayi, this confidence seemed even more charming.

Not long after, Xu Wenruo and Qi Yue came to a hotel near Lin'an Film and Television Base with a familiarity. When Xu Wenruo arrived, the door of the hotel had already started to be decorated with lights. It seemed that tomorrow's celebration banquet was ready.

As soon as Xu Wenruo entered the hotel, he saw Meng Da walking towards him. After seeing Xu Wenruo, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly walked to Xu Wenruo's side.

"Director Xu, happy new year. I came to attend the celebration banquet so early. I thought you were here tomorrow."

"Happy New Year, of course I have to arrive early this time. I didn't have time to participate in the movie promotion before. I depended on you guys to go to roadshows all over the country. Thank you for your hard work."

"No hard work, no hard work, this is what we should do. Many people may not have the chance to work so hard."

Meng Da had his iconic smile on his face. He was extremely concerned about the release of the movie these days. When he saw the box office rising steadily, he had an unstoppable smile on his face every day.

Although this part of the box office did not have his benefits, Meng Da was still honored. After all, this is a movie he starred in. As an old actor who has been working in the film and television industry for many years, he can finally say that he can make a comeback.

"Don't worry, I've prepared a big red envelope for all of you. The box office is so high, and all the crew members of the crew have made contributions."

"Then thank Director Xu, I wish Director Xu a lot of money in the future."

"Get rich together in the future."

After hearing that Xu Wenruo would send red envelopes at tomorrow's celebration banquet, Meng Da's smile became even brighter. The box office sales of the movie before only brought him some fame. Now when he met the generous Xu Wenruo, he would win both fame and fortune. In an instant, Meng Da suddenly felt that he had reached the peak of his life.

Suddenly, Meng Da felt a feeling of tears. The pain that he suffered for many years flashed in his eyes. Meng Da was an actor with no background at all. He was neither professional nor noble. He was struggling in the entertainment industry, relying on his own passion.

During this period, I am afraid that only Meng Da himself knew how many grievances he had suffered and how bitter he was. But now it is different. Meeting Xu Wenruo is equivalent to meeting a noble person. Now Meng Da has finally ended his hardships and has a sense of sorrow. Thinking of this, Meng Da felt relieved.

So he took two steps quickly and stood in front to help Xu Wenruo lead the way, looking like a follower. Xu Wenruo certainly felt the change in Meng Da's attitude, but he didn't like being flattered.

You should know that celebrities as big as Xu Wenruo have to bring a large group of assistants when traveling, but Xu Wenruo has not one of them, and he has put all the arrangements in the studio. No matter where he goes, Xu Wenruo is alone.

In fact, there are some celebrities talking about Xu Wenruo behind their backs, thinking that he is such a big star, but he has no cards at all and no one in the assistant team, which is really shabby enough.

But Xu Wenruo never cared about the opinions of these people. After all, everyone has different ideas. He can’t afford to hire an assistant. You should know that Xu Wenruo will give out 10 million red envelopes for the celebration banquet tomorrow. With this money, you can hire hundreds of assistants, but Xu Wenruo doesn’t need it.

"Director Xu, I live next door to you. If you have any questions, please call me."

Meng Da kept sending Xu Wenruo to the room, and he chose to leave. Just as Meng Da was about to leave, Xu Wenruo seemed to remember something and suddenly asked.

"You have been leaving a schedule recently, and I have a role here that is very suitable for you."

"No problem, I'm on call. Will Director Xu still film a movie recently?"

Meng Da showed an excited expression on his face. When he heard Xu Wenruo's invitation, Meng Da agreed without thinking. After all, if he could drink and eat meat with Xu Wenruo, Meng Da would definitely be devoted to it.

Based on his perspective on people over the years, Meng Da, Xu Wenruo is definitely a person worth following. Not to mention how talented and promising Xu Wenruo is, just talking about character, Meng Da thinks that he must be right to follow Xu Wenruo.

Meng Da has also been involved in many crews before and has met many directors. Xu Wenruo is one of the few who can respect all the staff in the crew. This respect is not only about attitude, but also about material things. The treatment and benefits given by Xu Wenruo are definitely far beyond other crews.

For example, in terms of food, each person in Xu Wenruo's crew has a very high daily standard. Of course, this standard is not the kind of subsidy for actors. For example, a person who is 650 a day is not enough to eat, will not happen in Xu Wenruo's crew.

Xu Wenruo would not distribute meal supplements, but instead used the money in practice. After all, he also ate in the crew cafeteria every day. Xu Wenruo knew in his heart whether the food was good or not, that he was not so easy to be fooled.

It is this very kind of treatment that makes Meng Da sure that even if he has not received the red envelope given by Xu Wenruo, he is sure that this is a very amazing number. He believes in Xu Wenruo's character.

The box office of the movie is close to 2 billion. Xu Wenruo doesn't seem to have many red envelopes for 10 million, but in fact he is already very kind to these staff members when they come. The money is distributed to everyone, which is at least equivalent to their six-year salary.

"It's not recently. I may have received news for a while, so I may wait for a few months. This time it's a big show and it takes some time to prepare, so I'll say hello to you in advance."

Xu Wenruo did have the idea of ​​a new film in his mind, but he was not so anxious to shoot. After all, he had been busy for a whole year last year, so he must have a good rest now, and the filming matters will be suppressed.

"I understand, I will be ready, but I just have something to discuss with you."

Meng Da, who was standing at the door, had a little twisted expression. This was the first time Xu Wenruo saw his expression, and he felt a little curious. He raised his eyebrows and stared at him.

"Director Xu, that... I terminated the contract with the agency some time ago. I see that your studio has this business. Can I sign in too?"

Meng Da looked at Xu Wenruo with embarrassment. After hearing him say it, Xu Wenruo also felt a little funny, because Meng Da is so old, and his squeamish look is really strange.

"no!"

Seeing him like this, Xu Wenruo couldn't help but want to tease him, so he pretended to be stern and refused. However, at the moment when Xu Wenruo refused, Meng Da's mouth twitched slightly, and the smile on his face was very stiff. Xu Wenruo could suddenly feel that a light seemed to be lost in Meng Da's eyes.

"No...sorry, I'm taking the liberty."

Seeing Meng Da's appearance, Xu Wenruo suddenly felt guilty in his heart, as if he shouldn't have made such a joke with him. Perhaps for Xu Wenruo, this was just an irrelevant joke, but for Meng Da, this was his hope.

"Sorry, I just made a joke with you just now. All the agency matters are subject to Qi Yue. You have to talk to her about the agency contract matters."

Xu Wenruo looked at Qi Yue beside him, then pulled her in front of him, and then in Qi Yue's contemptuous eyes, Xu Wenruo silently lowered her head.

"Director Xu, you scared me just now and thought..."

"I definitely welcome you to join. We have to do a big fight next time. It won't work without you, an old actor."

If Xu Wenruo hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe that a person's expression and expression could have changed so drastically. At that moment, Xu Wenruo could feel the violent fluctuations in Meng Da's entire emotions. This may be an excellent actor.

All acting skills are given by the sufferings in life. To be honest, Meng Da’s expression that changed his emotions just now, if it appeared in a literary and artistic movie, Meng Da could even use it to nominate for the actor.

Xu Wenruo absolutely did not exaggerate. Meng Da's acting skills were indeed at the pinnacle. He was really only one stage to show him, and one work that could show his acting skills.

"Thank you, Director Xu. You are probably tired just off the flight. Let's go and rest first. If you have any questions, we will talk about it next."

This time Meng Da really turned around and left, and only Xu Wenruo and Qi Yue were left at the door. They looked at each other. Xu Wenruo looked at Qi Yue's gaze, raised his eyebrows, and blurted out a frivolous word.

"What are you looking at? Do you want to sit in my room?"
