News that "Let the Bullets Fly" was scheduled to be released soon spread.
Qin Xiaobao's work, starring Leslie Cheung, Ge You, Jiang Wen, and nearly ten stars including Song Jia, Hu Ge, Jiang Wu, Wang Bingbing, Liao Fan, etc. in supporting roles.
It would be a pity not to make a New Year film with this lineup.
Especially in the interview, it was revealed that this is the first time that the elder brother will play a pure villain role, but fans are looking forward to it.
Generally speaking, "Let the Bullets Fly" has a lot of comedy elements and its style is also humorous. This is also an important reason why it is scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival.
After so many years of accumulation, everyone in the industry knows that comedies are particularly popular during the Chinese New Year.
Many families go to the theater with their families, and their first choice must be funny movies. If they are too heavy, or are purely gunfight movies, they will not be pleasing to the eye.
As for how much box office it will take, there is no need to discuss it for now.
It's too early.
Don't underestimate the rhetoric of movies claiming to win 2 billion or 3 billion box office. This is also a means of publicity to attract people's attention.
Publicity means casting a wide net. As long as you know it, you will have a chance to enter the theater.
"Let the Bullets Fly" is a big production, and the advantage is that Qin Xiaobao can focus on his own affairs.
By June, most of the work had been completed, and we were just waiting for the final edited version to be released before we could do the rest.
Qin Xiaobao is really relaxed. He only needs to make phone calls and can concentrate on his schoolwork and English with peace of mind.
Today is the weekend, he is at home alone, Wang Bingbing has gone to Hangzhou.
But I still got up early. My brother called me yesterday and wanted to come to my house as a guest.
I was in a hurry when I signed the contract at the meeting. Leslie Cheung happened to have to catch a flight and flew away before he could come over to take a look. This time he came here specially to take a look. After all, in addition to being friends, it is also a partnership with shareholders.
The couple likes to be clean, and the floors at home are mopped every two or three days. The robot vacuum is usually cleaning automatically, so guests won't be in a hurry when they visit.
After Qin Xiaobao got up, washed up, listened to music, and slowly wiped the tables and chairs in the living room with a rag.
My brother was not that early. He said he would arrive in the Magic City at 10:30, so it would be good to arrive at 11:30.
Xiang Yang said that he would leave the pick-up matter to him, and Qin Xiaobao felt at ease.
After finishing his work, he was bored.
There was only one person in the huge house, the curtains were wide open, and the sun shone in.
Looking at the clean living room, I feel happy.
Opening the refrigerator, there have been fewer and fewer dishes since Wang Bingbing left. Now only eggs and toast are left.
At nine o'clock, I was a little hungry.
Take out two slices of toast and two eggs, fry them once, put them together, add some tomato sauce, and a simple sandwich is completed.
People get used to it. Wang Bingbing cooks by herself at home and orders less and less takeout.
Drinking water and eating a sandwich, Qin Xiaobao was already thinking about what to have for lunch.
Like his brother, he doesn't like to go out.
It's quite troublesome to go to a restaurant to be discovered. You have to sign autographs and take photos all the time, and your fun is completely ruined.
But I am too lazy to do it myself.
My brother's WeChat message was sent, saying that he was on the plane.
Qin Xiaobao dialed Xiang Yang's number, and the two discussed it and decided to order takeout.
We are all our own people, so we don’t care too much.
I put down my phone, bored, and searched Douban. They all recommended the American TV series "The Good Doctor". I found it and watched it. It was really good.
By the way, I also discovered something, everyone was actually fucked?
This translation team was a source of happiness in the past, what a pity.
Although American dramas now don’t read subtitles and can understand the general meaning by half-guessing and half-listening, but without everyone and the source of the film, I don’t know what will happen in the future.
This loss is almost as heartbreaking as when Kuaibo disappeared.
Douban's rating is pretty reliable, with a high score of 9.2. It's really good-looking and I couldn't stop watching it.
One advantage of watching this type of American drama is that it basically tells one story per episode, and it doesn’t hurt even if you skip it in the middle.
I was drinking Coke, watching American TV series, and having fun. Time flew by.
The doorbell rang. It was the security guard asking if he ordered takeout.
It must have been done by Xiang Yang. As I said just now, he is responsible for the takeout and can deliver it at the right time.
Sure enough, just after Qin Xiaobao put things away, people arrived.
"Brother, long time no see."
"It won't take long." My brother handed over the bag in his hand and put on his slippers: "I brought you two bottles of wine."
"Thank you!" Qin Xiaobao was not polite and directly put it on the wine cabinet in the restaurant: "I really hope you can come as guests more often. Look, there are a total of ten bottles of wine here, not one of which I bought myself.
"
"Okay." My brother was not interested in the new house, so he walked over to him, took down a bottle and looked at it: "It's still good wine."
"Brother Chao, Brother He and the others gave them to me. You also know that I'm not very good at drinking." Qin Xiaobao raised his hand: "Choose one at noon?"
"Forget it." Leslie Cheung shook his head: "I won't drink at noon. I have something to do in the afternoon. Let's eat. I'm hungry."
Those who don’t drink are basically not encouraged to drink. Qin Xiaobao respects the opinions of the guests and the three of them go to the dining table.
Although my brother is from Xiangjiang, his taste is not much different from that of the mainland, and he has no objection to the red Sichuan cuisine.
Coke in the refrigerator is essential.
Xiangyang didn’t order much, but they had farm-style stir-fried pork, Maoxuewang, spicy chicken, and a light clam soup.
"Bingbing went to film, what do you do with your usual meals?" My brother took a big mouthful of rice and it was delicious.
"We were in the school cafeteria at noon, and we went out to pack food in the evening." Qin Xiaobao poured Coca-Cola for them both: "I'm alone at home, and it's not easy to cook rations. The most important thing is that I hate washing dishes."
"The cafeteria," my brother said, holding a bowl and looking at the ceiling: "It's such a distant memory."
"Haha, I'll review it with you next time I have a chance." Qin Xiaobao said with a smile.
Leslie Cheung nodded.
"You didn't come here just to see me this time, right?"
My brother was so spicy that he gasped and drank all the Coca-Cola in one gulp. He rarely drank carbonated drinks, but his tongue was spicy. Drinking hot soup made it even more uncomfortable.
He breathed a sigh of relief: "The main thing is to look after you and buy a house on the way. I can be considered a boss after all. The company is in Shanghai, so I have to find a place to live."
Qin Xiaobao expressed his conviction. For his brother, buying an apartment is indeed a small matter. It is just like changing a mobile phone for ordinary people.
Well, I have a need, so I’ll buy it.
"Are you ready for the place?"
"Look, let's pay it in one lump sum, 42 million, which is 5 million cheaper."
"Tsk, tsk!" Qin Xiaobao clicked his tongue.
In less than a month, I have achieved a small goal, and it seems very easy.
Xiang Yang asked: "It's rare for you to come here, so why not stay in a hotel?"
"It's considered an investment. I just happened to find someone who wanted to resell it," my brother said with an indifferent expression: "If I buy it now, according to the market price, I have already earned more than 700 and almost 8 million."
"Yes!" Qin Xiaobao sighed: "The fastest way to make money is to use money."
"Indeed, anyway, I would tidy up the rooms in a well-decorated house. The house in that community is particularly easy to sell. If it weren't for my identity and the full payment of the money at once, I might not be able to get it."
"I happened to meet you."
"That's right!" My brother poured himself another cup of Coke: "What about you, when are you planning to hold the wedding?"
Qin Xiaobao raised his head: "The wedding should be held next year, but it has been decided that the certificate will be announced at the end of the year."
"Oh, I understand." My brother didn't ask any more questions. This was their decision.
"I have nothing to do in the afternoon. Why don't I go with you to look at the house? Once we're done, we'll make an appointment in the evening and find someone to play a few laps with you."
"Perfect arrangement. I'm just going to take a look in the afternoon. I have a lawyer to help with other matters. You should make an appointment early." My brother picked up his phone and looked at it: "It will probably be over at 3:30."
"Okay, do you still want to go to the club last time?"
"It's too wasteful. Why not buy a mahjong table?" My brother pointed to the living room: "Your place is big enough and can be used in the future."
"How about you two go out and I'll take charge of the mahjong table." Xiang Yang said.
"Okay, that's it."
"Doesn't Chen He live in this community?" my brother asked.
"Brother He is filming. I'll ask the others. It should be no problem to find one."
