While Bai Lang was concentrating on the filming of "The End", Kang Jian was preoccupied with his trading company.
Long before Kang Jian moved his brains to Li Sha's apartment, Qiu Qian made arrangements to let Kang Jian taste the sweetness of doing business with the money at hand. Only in this way can Kangjian be induced to borrow more money and invest in this black hole. Assuming that this is the case, Kangjian's company collapses at this point, enough for Kangjian to lose the accumulation of the past, and can't lift his head in front of Li Ming for a lifetime. But I'm afraid Li Sha's backer can't be pushed away. After all, Kangjian hadn't really cheated at that time.
But then there was the matter of Lin Chenyuan, Qiu Qian was very angry, and decided to raise Kangjian's mind to be more greedy; if Kangjian was more greedy, the more he fell. Therefore, Kang Jian took the 6 million obtained from the real estate loan under Li Sha's name, and Qiu Qian generously let Kang Jian make a steady profit. That is to say, with the capital of 6 million, plus Kangjian's original 3 million, after turning over, Kangjian's trading company has achieved revenue of around 20 million in less than half a year after its establishment.
20 million... This number makes a healthy mouth dry. Even if he is a popular actor, he has to film for more than half a year to get this salary. What's more, this kind of business does not have to spend brains memorizing lines, rushing to the market in the sun and rain, and at most, go to a few entertainments and cocktail parties, and the money will come rolling in. It is simply an easy job that is disproportionate to the reward. Son.
So after tasting this kind of sweetness, Kangjian didn't want to take any drama, and only thought about investment, investment, or investment.
He can push the scenes that the agent finds, and he can deal with simple advertisements or endorsements casually. Fan websites or fan clubs are even more inattentive. In the free time, Kang Jian is not clinging to the thick financial magazines. Other than that, it was because of Xiao Xu, Xu Li, who Qiu Qian had arranged to be beside Kang Fitness from the very beginning.
However, after earning 20 million, Kang Jian thought that Xiao Xu seemed to be jealous of his good luck, and gradually stopped paying attention to himself.
In fact, not only Xiao Xu, but also friends who know Kangjian's company, including Li Ming, are not very optimistic about Kangjian's good results. Those who don't know the details will only laugh and say congratulations; but there is obvious disbelief in their expressions, and they know the details; for example, Li Ming, who just said "good luck" lightly.
luck! ? luck! ? Luck is also a part of strength, okay? ! When Kang Jian proudly poked the passbook under Li Ming's arrogant nose, and only got the words "good luck", his face was blue with anger.
So after returning home that time, Kang Jian slammed the table and scolded Li Sha for the first time, "You saw it today!! You are a good father!! He doesn't look down on me at all!! Luck!! It's just Luck!? After I worked so hard to socialize and run around, he said it was just good luck!?"
"A Jian..." Li Sha was taken aback by Kang Jian's outburst, and shrank holding her son. From her point of view, she actually thinks that Li Ming is right; Kang Jian is probably just lucky, but on the other hand, she wants to believe that her husband is capable, and she doesn't want to pour cold water on him too much, so she has to say it carefully, " In any case, we made money, didn't we? The result is good, and after a long time, Dad will definitely figure it out, we will use the money, repay the loan, and then buy a house--"
"Buy!? Buy what!? This is my company's important capital! You and your dad will shut up and take a good look at me!! I'll let you know, I'm really capable!!" Kang Jian said fiercely, Without even looking at the son who started crying because of the argument, he slammed the door and left.
This made Li Sha stunned, and even forgot to call someone. Kang Jian has always been gentle and affectionate in front of her.
But at this moment of health, there is finally a refreshing feeling of resentment.
Because Kang Jian has reacted, he can already make money by himself; he still makes a lot of money. Since he can't rely on Li Ming's breath, why should he be a grandson in front of Li Ming and a servant in front of Li Sha. No, I just straightened up and scolded in front of Li Sha, it felt really good.
Thinking of this, Kang Jian was in a better mood, and walked briskly to Lin Chenyuan's small apartment, feeling that his life had finally ushered in a turning point. And this is just the beginning, there will be a more brilliant future waiting for him not far away. For this reason, Kang Jian decided to take Lin Chen to the club tonight.
The club is the club that Xiao Xu asked him to join. The annual fee is so expensive that it makes people vomit blood, but the point is that there are many big bosses.
Now this all represents an opportunity.
And since Xiao Xu is jealous, he can no longer use it. The next opportunity has to be discovered by himself...
◇◇◇
"I've never cried so badly in a movie theater, I would have known that I wouldn't have taken my wife there. But she cried more than me, haha, and kept begging me for facial paper. Kneaded together. 』
"In the middle, I endured very hard, and my whole body was shaking, but the next door suddenly made a wow, haha, it turned out that the next door couldn't help crying first. 』
"When I left the theater, my head was dizzy, my whole body was sweating, I was probably too tired from crying, but I was in a relaxed mood, like a dream, I think the pressure relief effect is good, hahaha. 』
"After watching it, I knew it was a movie, but I felt that my troubles were not troubles. A little bit of anger or depression is a big deal. Think inside-"
"Shake M will like it, I probably won't watch it a second time, enough, really, so tired. But if it is for someone who has not seen it, I will definitely ask him to watch it. This experience is worth a visit. 』
"The applause is real. Sounds a bit silly, this is the first time I applaud the movie screen, obviously no one is in the theater, but you are... want to make one, how to say, express what you have accumulated in your heart? 』
…
The six experiences mentioned by the six red-eyed viewers above are all the content in the "End Point" trailer.
Finally, there is a picture of the audience standing up and applauding at the end of the movie. That's all.
In other words, in the promotional video for "End Point", not even the slightest movie clip was released.
The movie poster also has no characters, just a very ordinary single bed.
This kind of propaganda is naturally aimed at arousing the curiosity of the audience and entering the cinema. Another meaning is that the fragments of the movie are meaningless. To watch it, you must watch the complete story. This is what the whole movie wants to express.
Therefore, the pre-promotion of "End Point" is not like other movies, which requires various program announcements on the protagonist and supporting characters to discuss or introduce the content of the movie. Even the program announcements that were actively invited, such as "Before and After the Camera", were all rejected by the crew this time in order to match the promotion mode of "End Point".
The propaganda of the crew just kept playing the audience's viewing experience after watching the film, and every sentence conveyed their true feelings about the "finishing point". There are so many short-form versions, and before the actual release of "The End", nearly 100 viewers' experience phrases were broadcast. And there are five to six characters in each promotional video, which means that nearly 20 versions of the promotional video of "The End" have been produced.
As a result, multiple versions of the short films were continuously broadcast in turn and forcefully, which did not cause aesthetic fatigue, but really aroused the curiosity of the audience.
To talk about the cost of such a scale of publicity, compared with the low-cost lyrical film "End Point", it is actually putting the cart before the horse. But who told the protagonist of "End Point" to find Bai Lang; and behind Bai Lang is Qiu Qian. Qiu Qian agreed not to interfere arbitrarily during the filming process, but after the filming was over, Qiu Qian consciously took over the activities of the publicity stage without affecting Bai Lang's artistic performance.
Therefore, in the first week of the release of "End Point", the box office far exceeded director Xu Yan's expectations, reaching around 80 million.
The second week is also a gradual upward trend, indicating that the effect of word of mouth is sure to prolong the burn.
So far, experienced insiders know that this film is a great success; regardless of its eye-catching artistic performance, it will definitely not be ugly at the box office. Because most of the films that follow the literary route, the box office is popular after the second week, and it is getting sweeter and sweeter like eating sugar cane.
◇◇◇
"End Point" continued to be played hotly in the theater, but Bai Lang had been idle for a while.
The emotional issue of filming "The End" made Bai Lang agree to Qiu Qian's request to take a good rest after the end of the "End". The heavy work such as movies or serials is suspended, and some short-term advertising or endorsement work, Qiu Qian also explained that Fang Hua is not a rare opportunity, so don't bother Bai Lang with it.
Fang Hua rolled his eyes at the phrase "uncommon in ten thousand years", and then muttered that there is no need to set such a threshold, so just close the door, but in less than a few days, a person who may be called qualified really came. Work made Fang Hua excitedly rush to the villa to find Bai Lang.
It turned out that the set of books that Bai Lang signed with copyright income of hundreds of millions was about to enter the fourth episode of the film this year, and one of the characters of the Oriental student wanted to invite Bai Lang to play.
It has to be mentioned that since three years ago, the publisher of the set of books in country G has been preparing for the filming of the first episode of the story. After a one-year filming period, the first episode of the story was successfully released as a film. The magical special effects of the movie present the fantastic scenes in the novel vividly, bringing a wave of enthusiasm again, and properly pushing the novel's reputation to a higher level.
This year, the filming of the set book has entered its fourth year, and the progress has also come to the shooting of the fourth episode of the set book.
Starting with this episode, the story will add a new face of oriental descent, a student in his early twenties. Chief Director Chai Ke. After searching for many oriental actors, Jackson fell in love with Bai Lang's mature acting skills. Even if he was a little older, there was no problem with that face being mixed with Westerners for several years. body. Not to mention, Bai Lang also has a special relationship with the country's general agent.
So Bai Lang listened to it, just like Fang Hua, he was shocked and disbelieving at first, and only remembered to nod his head after being stunned for a few seconds. For such a rare opportunity, the timing of the remuneration is no longer important. To be able to participate in the filming of a set of books, in Bai Lang's view, it used to be as far away as a myth, but now it has become a reality. in front of you.
But after hearing the news, Qiu Qian's face was dark and dripping. Even if the filming of the book set film will actually start in half a year, but the next job is set so early, the mood of leisurely rest will definitely be affected. Bai Lang couldn't refute Qiu Qian's protest; he really wanted to take advantage of this time to practice foreign language and prepare, so he had to cede land and pay indemnity, promising to rest obediently during the six months, and he would do exactly what Qiu Qian said.
Qiu Qian looked at Bai Lang's expression, dissatisfied and gave instructions, then come to the club with me tomorrow.
After he finished speaking, he shoved a small brief introduction to Bai Lang.
Bai Lang bowed his head, the photos in the introduction are exquisite, and the environment of the club is comfortable, luxurious and beautiful.
It should be Qiu Qian looking for a place to pass the time in order to coax himself to rest, but he is afraid that he is bored.
Bai Lang obediently hugged Qiu Qian. OK, you accompany me.
Unexpectedly, on the first day they went, Bai Lang and Qiu Qian met two unexpected people.
Kang Jian and Lin Chenyuan.
