Chapter 122 Huang Bo felt the crisis, the second actor of "Hearing Girl"
"La La Land, the third film directed by Zhou Qing, has been released across the board and has earned 8700 million yuan at the box office."
"Following 127 Hours and Departures, director Zhou Qing's La La Land once again created a box office myth."
"The Venice award-winning film La La Land grossed 8700 million yuan at the box office. It is another sincere work by director Zhou Qing that has been both well received and sold well."
I don’t know if China Film Group Corporation has made any effort, but the total box office of “La La Land” was reported soon after.
It really shocked many people and made many people in the circle stunned.
fierce!
This is too fierce!
This is the first thought that flashes through many people's minds involuntarily.
Although the box office of this movie is not as good as the recently released "A World Without Thieves" and "Kung Fu", don't forget that this is a romance movie.
What’s more, how much was invested in “La La Land” and how much was invested in these two films?
It's amazing that "La La Land" can achieve such box office results.
Not to mention, this is a film that won an award in Venice.
That’s right, this is an award-winning film!
For an award-winning film to achieve a result that sweeps most commercial films is truly incredible.
Zhou Qing's powerful strength once again attracted the attention and breathtaking attention of the entire circle.
"With a box office of over 80 million, the box office of La La Land is surprisingly high!"
The class teacher Wang Jinsong could only sigh and sigh, and words were not enough to express his feelings at the moment.
I can only say that this student in my class has a fighting ability that is really scary.
The box office of 127 million for the first " Hours" shocked many people at the time, and as a result, the box office of "Departures" doubled.
Once again, everyone was shocked.
However, the final version of "La La Land" doubled the number again.
Isn't this too exaggerated?
Is this the weight and appeal of the two words Zhou Qing today?
Usually when people talk about box office appeal, they discuss actors, but in fact, the box office appeal of directors is often more terrifying.
Especially those truly talented directors.
"Zhou Xun, have you seen the box office of La La Land? It's over 80 million! Director Zhou is amazing!"
Rong Xin, Chen Kun looked extremely excited, his voice even went up an octave.
His face was flushed with joy.
Although he only played a supporting role in "La La Land", this movie can be regarded as his masterpiece anyway.
In the future he can also brag to others that he starred in the movie "La La Land".
"Yes, as expected of Director Zhou, his moves are extraordinary."
Zhou Xun looked more excited than Chen Kun, even so excited that he was about to jump up.
She really didn't expect that "La La Land" would get such a high box office.
Even Zhou Xun was stimulated.
Although the box office of Zhou Qing’s first two films were also very impressive, even "Departures" made more than 40 million.
But Zhou Xun really didn't expect that "La La Land" would make 80 million in one go.
This is 80 million!
You have to know that last year's box office champion was "Cell Phone", which only grossed 50 million!
This means that if this movie was released last year, it would have definitely been the box office champion.
Horror!
Director Zhou is awesome!
Zhou Xun almost shouted out loud.
The worship for Zhou Qing was as endless as the surging river.
First it won the grand prize in Venice, and then it grossed 80 million. There is no doubt that this movie is Zhou Xun's first masterpiece!
"Winter vacation is over, right? Director Zhou should be back to school soon. I don't know when he will start casting for "Hearing Girl"."
At this time, Chen Kun spoke quietly to Zhou Xun.
"That's right, Director Zhou is coming back soon."
Zhou Xun nodded heavily, his eyes full of light.
This time, I have to have a hand in "The Hearing Girl".
After all, Director Zhou still likes to work with people he knows, and Qin Hao has even starred in two of his movies in a row.
My acting skills shouldn’t be that bad, right?
However, Zhou Xun also knew that this time it might not be so easy.
Because all the female stars in the entire circle, except Gong Li, are eyeing this piece of fat meat.
Even Zhang Ziyi started jumping up and down this time.
"More than 80 million! It exploded again. This Zhou Qing never fails."
Liu Xiaoli, who got the first-hand data, couldn't help but sigh.
This is Zhou Qing’s third film since his debut, and like the previous two, it has achieved tremendous success.
Although it is not as exaggerated as "A World Without Thieves" and "Kung Fu", it is already very impressive.
Do you know how much investment was made in "La La Land"?
How many "A World Without Thieves" and "Kung Fu" are there?
What’s more important is that Zhou Qing’s movie is different from others.
Zhou Qing's movies not only do well at the box office, they also win major awards.
This is a fatal attraction for any actor.
After all, as long as you act in Zhou Qing's movie, it means double gains in box office and prestige, killing two birds with one stone.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zhou Qing is definitely one of the directors that all actors in the entire Chinese entertainment industry most want to work with.
It is definitely in the top three, maybe even in the top two.
Of course, Liu Xiaoli also wanted Liu Yifei to catch Zhou Qing's express train.
It’s just a pity that Zhou Qing’s car is so difficult to get on.
Seeing that another movie of Zhou Qing has become a hit, I can only feel envy and sigh.
"Yes, mom, Zhou Qing is really amazing."
Liu Yifei nodded deeply in agreement, unable to hide her admiration and respect for Zhou Qing on her face.
She had never seen such a talented director before.
My classmate's battle record is indeed too impressive.
It’s just a pity that he has filmed three movies in a row but hasn’t found a role that suits him!
Although Liu Yifei always behaves very reasonable, she is actually very envious of those actresses who can act in Zhou Qing's movies.
After all, there are only so many good movie resources, and Zhou Qing’s movie resources are the best.
Available but not available.
This is true for Liu Yifei, or for any female star.
But the only consolation is that Zhou Qing has said that if there is a suitable role, he will find me.
Although Liu Xiaoli felt that Zhou Qing's words were just perfunctory, Liu Yifei still believed in Zhou Qing.
"Amazing, awesome, you always just say awesome, don't you have anything else to say?"
Liu Xiaoli looked at her daughter's Buddhist attitude and felt secretly anxious.
This silly daughter, when will she learn to be more careful?
"By the way, I haven't congratulated him yet."
After being reminded by Liu Xiaoli, Liu Yifei slapped her forehead, took out her phone and called Zhou Qing.
But it didn't work.
Liu Yifei was not surprised by this. She thought that Zhou Qing must be very busy at this time, right?
Liu Yifei's guess was correct. After the box office report of "La La Land" came out, Zhou Qing's phone kept buzzing.
It's really not easy to break in at this moment.
It took him more than an hour to get through all this before he could catch his breath.
When I saw that there was a missed call from Liu Yifei, I called back.
The two sides chatted and laughed for a while until someone on the other end urged them to start filming, and then they ended the call with a sense of unfulfilled desire.
At this time, an announcement came from the waiting room reminding us that the flight to Beijing was about to take off.
Zhou Qing carried his backpack, took his boarding pass, and went through security to board the plane. Now that the winter vacation was over, it was time for Zhou Qing to return to Beijing Film Academy, or rather, to Beijing.
Because the first place he returned to was not Beijing Film Academy, but his own studio.
"Director Zhou, congratulations on La La Land setting a new box office record!"
Several receptionists, assistants and others immediately sent congratulatory messages to Zhou Qing.
"You flattered me well, and everyone got a red envelope."
Zhou Qing smiled and waved his hand.
"La La Land" was a big hit at the box office, so it wouldn't be a big deal to reward the employees of his own studio.
"You really think you're a student. You're not coming back until after the winter break."
Huang Bo had arrived a long time ago, and he ran up to Zhou Qing to complain.
It’s true that you are a student, but you are more importantly a great director.
You have to have this awareness.
“I’m a student.”
Zhou Qing's words made Huang Bo lose his temper.
"Baoqiang hasn't come back yet?"
Not seeing Wang Baoqiang, nor even the other party's agent, Zhou Qing asked Huang Bo a question.
"He went to run the announcement. This silly boy is really popular now."
Huang Bo told Zhou Qing this answer, which did not surprise Zhou Qing.
"What's your tone? Wasn't it the same thing when you finished filming 127 Hours?"
Seeing Huang Bo's tone was a bit sour, Zhou Qing couldn't help but tease him.
"I couldn't compare with Baoqiang at that time."
Huang Bo tells the truth.
"127 Hours" did make him famous, but it would be a bit of a stretch to say that he became a hit.
After all, how much was the box office revenue of "127 Hours"?
It is just a fraction of "A World Without Thieves".
So it is true that he is a little envious and jealous of Wang Baoqiang, and at the same time he also has an irrepressible sense of crisis.
It would be embarrassing if Wang Baoqiang overtook an old man who you signed first.
Fortunately, I got an important role in "The Hearing Girl" this time, which is a great consolation.
"Don't worry about these things. You and Baoqiang will be big stars in the future."
Zhou Qing waved to Huang Bo.
When I returned to my office, my assistant had already cleaned it and it was still very tidy.
Zhou Qing simply put his luggage in place and then called Director Chen over.
We discussed various related matters.
Then, I started to devote myself to the comprehensive work.
Han Sanping also called shortly afterwards and had a brief chat with Zhou Qing about the celebration banquet.
Of course, this is just incidental. The other party’s real purpose is still "The Hearing Girl".
"Give me a detailed budget once it's done. Don't be lazy at your young age. Cast and prepare. Hurry up."
"It's been a while since the project was launched last year, and it's time to move forward."
Han Sanping gave Zhou Qing earnest instructions.
Zhou Qing couldn't help but laugh. Han Sanping seemed to be more anxious than himself.
But it is true that "La La Land" has already been released, and apart from attending classes, I really don't have anything else to do.
Speaking of rest, I had a great winter vacation at home.
It is not impossible to start moving forward with "Hearing Girl".
Of course, there is no need to be so anxious, as I just got back.
When Zhou Qing returned to school for class, he found that the school had become unusually lively.
There are many unfamiliar faces inside, and most of them are handsome men and beautiful women.
Without other reasons, enrollment season has begun again.
This year, Beijing Film Academy plans to enroll 683 students, but the acting class only has 180 students, 150 of whom are in higher vocational classes.
In other words, the undergraduate acting class only accepts 30 people!
The competition is fierce.
Those who can come in this year all have outstanding qualities.
"Level 05, this level has also produced several stars."
When Zhou Qing thought of this, several names emerged in his mind.
Yang Mi, Jiao Junyan, Zhang Xiaofei, Yuan Shanshan, et al.
As for men, well, I really can’t think of them!
It's a bit like the yin is stronger than the yang.
But this matter has nothing to do with Zhou Qing.
Or perhaps the only connection is the vivid description given by Zhou Qing in the enrollment brochure.
That’s right, once again, Zhou Qing became a “tool” used by Beijing Film Academy for recruiting students.
In fact, he is a very useful tool.
Because they are still students at Beijing Film Academy, many people sign up just for the great director Zhou Qing!
The number of applicants to Beijing Film Academy increases year by year, which is definitely a very important reason.
"Zhou Qing, your filming of La La Land is really great, but the ending is a little regrettable."
Back in the classroom, the students were all very enthusiastic.
Especially since "La La Land" was a big hit at the box office, everyone came to congratulate Zhou Qing.
Jiang Yiyan was the most active, almost sticking to Zhou Qing and refusing to leave, as if they were very close.
This made Zhou Qing feel a little uncomfortable, and he even had a faint resistance in his heart.
This person is too ruthless. Now there are rumors that he is having an affair with a director. You can't afford to offend him.
"Since it's called 'Hearing Girl', the actors in it shouldn't be too old, right?"
As Jiang Yiyan was talking, she started talking about "The Hearing Girl", and the purpose was self-evident.
It's just a pity. Considering her future reputation, how could Zhou Qing let her play any important role?
At most, he would just be a minor role or a small supporting role and that would be it.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, there is indeed a supporting role in "The Hearing Girl" this time, and Zhou Qing thinks he can let his classmate play it.
The female classmate of the heroine also fell in love with the guy who was the heroine's brother.
Of course, that is the original plot, and Zhou Qing’s part must be changed.
After all, it's too ridiculous that a female college student falls in love with a deaf-mute worker.
Not to mention Huang Bo’s appearance.
There aren't many scenes and no acting skills are required, but Jiang Yiyan is actually capable of doing the role.
But Zhou Qing actually had another candidate, Zhou Yang.
But there's no need to talk about this kind of thing now.
"Xixi, you're back too."
After getting rid of Jiang Yiyan, Zhou Qing reunited with Liu Yifei.
The girl’s filming of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" has not been completed yet, but it is the first day of school anyway, so Liu Yifei still needs to report over.
At the very least you should go to the class teacher in person to ask for leave, otherwise it would be a bit unreasonable.
