China Entertainment's performance is king

Chapter 1260 Haier Brothers (Long Chapter)
"Auntie, you are here too. Didn't Xixi say you had something to do?" At the airport, Shen Lang was waiting for Liu Yifei. Liu Xiaoli contacted him and she was there too.

"She told you so." Liu Xiaoli knew what her daughter meant when she suddenly said she didn't want to answer the phone herself. To be honest, she was still a little uncomfortable with it.

Shen Lang and Liu Yifei had been in love before and had been together all the time, but they had been dating for too short a time and had too little experience in things like picking someone up at the airport.

This time when she comes back, she will definitely use her boyfriend. It’s not that she has to, but her boyfriend is too proactive. Liu Yifei herself knows that Shen Lang has bad intentions. However, they are already in love and some things can be further carried out. Therefore, she found a reason and did not ask the driver to pick her up.

Liu Xiaoli must have known about this. She knew what the situation was and came directly. She was not trying to stop her, but there were some things that Liu Yifei didn't mention, and she felt she had to mention them.

For example, is there any project that Shen Lang can collaborate on with Liu Yifei? I have nothing to do anyway, so it won’t hurt to have more contact with Shen Lang.

There are some things that her daughter is embarrassed to say, but she is embarrassed to say them. She knows her daughter well. She had secretly encouraged her before, but she was unmoved.

It's not that she has to take advantage of Shen Lang. She knows that being too obvious would be annoying, but there will always be no problem if she has more contact with him.

"I thought she would come back today, so I came to pick her up. If I had known you were coming, I would not have come. By the way, we don't seem to have any contact information except the phone. Let's add WeChat." Liu Xiaoli said naturally.

Looking at the still charming Liu Xiaoli, sister, do you know that you look like a pick-up artist, a rich woman and a little pup.

Of course she added them on WeChat. Now that Liu Xiaoli had achieved her goal, she naturally wouldn't talk about resources now. That would be too low in EQ.

The two chatted for a while, just about meaningless topics from all over the world. Liu Yifei appeared wearing sunglasses and a small suitcase. She naturally didn't have just this little luggage, but she had an assistant, so she and Shen Lang didn't have to go to get it.

Shen Lang didn't wait inside. The lounge was said to be for VIPs, but there were quite a few people there. Shen Lang thought it was troublesome, and Liu Yifei would be out soon anyway.

Shen Lang honked. He didn't drive the Koenigsegg this time. That thing was just for showing off, but if he wanted to be serious, he had to drive the big G. By the way, it's time for Brabus to decide how long it will take.

"Are you tired?" It was natural for her boyfriend to put her small suitcase down. Liu Yifei hugged Shen Lang's back and felt safe.

She is also reserved, but since she plans to take the initiative in this relationship, and she is a straightforward person who will not be shy, it would be fine if they really had no contact, but they had contact before and it was just one step away from being complete, so she is not very resistant.

Liu Xiaoli was a little upset, but her daughter was only looking at Shen Lang and didn't notice Liu Xiaoli in the back row.

"It's okay. You've been here for a long time." Liu Yifei naturally came to the passenger seat and looked at Shen Lang. She suddenly felt that her boyfriend was a little reserved today.

What he said on WeChat was a little too much. Logically speaking, he is not a reserved man. I understand. He is playing tricks on me.

"No, I just got here a while ago." Shen Lang said seriously. He was indeed quite wild, but he felt pressured because his girlfriend's mother was sitting in the back.

He actually wanted to give you a reminder, but he really wanted to see Liu Yifei's embarrassed look, and he wanted to let you control her.

"No, why have you become shy? Well, what? Didn't you say that after we meet, you would kiss me hard and then transform into Haier Brothers with me?" Liu Yifei felt that Shen Lang was using a routine and that the cosplay routine was interesting.

"Xixi." Liu Xiaoli couldn't stand it anymore. The more he said, the more outrageous it became. He didn't even check to see if there was anyone else in the car.

They also transformed into Haier Brothers. She didn't come here at first, but this brand is very popular among the people. She remembered that it means wearing nothing but shorts. Her daughter is quite good at saying sweet words, but it would be better if she wasn't there.

She had to speak up, for she was really afraid that her daughter would turn into Haier Brothers in the car. Although the possibility was not high, it was not a big problem for young people nowadays to say something excessive when they were in love, but others would get tired of hearing it.

"Oh my God, Mom, why did you suddenly appear?" Liu Yifei took off her sunglasses a little and felt awkward when she saw Liu Xiaoli who suddenly appeared in the back seat.

"What do you mean by suddenly appearing? I've always been here. Are you tired?" Liu Xiaoli took the initiative to ease the atmosphere.

Liu Yifei immediately took action and strangled Shen Lang. She was not stupid and had already understood that Shen Lang was setting a trap for her.

Even if he was a little more normal, I wouldn't tease him. I can only say that he was deliberately misleading me and being hypocritical. Humph.

"It's okay, but I'm a little sleepy. I don't dare to rest. I have to go there again in a few days, so I need to adjust myself." Liu Yifei came back for nothing else this time, simply to attend the celebration banquet and seminar for "Zhu Xian".

It is normal to have a celebration banquet. Since the record has been broken, there has to be something like this. Bonuses should be given to everyone. Also, seminars are ready. Seminars for "Big Shot" and "Zhu Xian" are both ready.

Shen Lang was originally thinking about whether they could be put together, but he was overthinking it. He thought it was convenient, but the two seminars had two lineups. He didn't know if the lineup of a seminar brought by a movie would be repeated. There are really many practitioners related to the film industry.

In fact, he also knew the reason for not merging. They all had their own funds and their own contributions. What would it mean to merge them together? For Shen Lang and the producers, it was just a gilding, and for others, it was a political achievement.

Although the seminar is divided into two days, it can be held on alternate days due to venue or other reasons.

In fact, it was because of this seminar that the celebration banquet was scheduled to be held at this time, as all the main actors were about to arrive.

"Big Shot" is okay, as long as Shen Lang, Tang Yan, Shuangzi and Wu Jing are there. As for Yang Mi, she is not involved. The bonuses can be fought for secretly, but if someone with little role enters the show openly, it will be too easy to be ridiculed.

Nowadays, because of the good reputation of "Eternal Love", Yang Mi didn't even release the divorce statement she was planning to release right away, but postponed it for two days for fear of affecting her work, let alone "Big Shot" at this point.

As for "Zhu Xian", there are Shen Lang, Liu Tianxian, Da Tiantian, Hu Ge, Jiaozhu, and even Da Meiyuan. With so many people, it is a bit difficult to match their schedules. Especially since "Zhu Xian" has become such a big hit overseas, the Film Bureau wants to find more main actors.

Among them, Liang Guanhua, who plays Zhang Xiaofan's master, will also appear. We can't just look for young people. It can only be said that simply making box office money in China is different from being able to make money abroad.

In the eyes of many people, although the overseas box office of "Zhu Xian" is not high, it is actually more important than being ranked first in the history of domestic entertainment films, because it represents going global, and this concept is really too strong.

Liu Yifei and Da Tiantian must come. Da Tiantian herself has collaborated with Hollywood in "Mulan", so she can talk about it.

Because of this, Liu Yifei rushed back after setting a time. It's not that you have to go, but if you, the heroine, don't go, everyone knows who will be happy.

Having said that, this seminar is of a very high standard, and the Deputy Minister of the Propaganda Department and the Director of the Film Bureau will both speak.

"Sorry to bother you, Xiao Shen, you must come in for dinner." Liu Xiaoli wanted to keep Shen Lang and send them home. Although she was ready to take Liu Yifei to the hotel directly, there was an unexpected situation and she didn't need to rush.

"No need, Auntie. I have something to do over there. It has already been booked." Shen Lang left.

"Girl, you don't even know to keep him for a while." Liu Xiaoli said to Liu Yifei.

"I won't stay. It's so embarrassing. You didn't even tell me you were coming." Liu Yifei said. Since Shen Lang was not around, she could say whatever she wanted.

This is the strange thing. It’s not awkward to talk to anyone, but when we are together, things are likely to go wrong.

"You don't say you are outspoken, and you still say Haier Brothers, is that what a girl would say?"

"Mom, if you keep talking I'm leaving. Let's eat." Liu Yifei was really shy. Her relationship status had changed this time, but she didn't expect her mother to find out. She was so embarrassed.

"You are stupid too. Why don't you keep him and communicate with him more? See what projects he has in hand." Liu Xiaoli began to give instructions.

"Mom, it's not good to be too utilitarian." Liu Yifei has her own plans. She doesn't mind cooperating with Shen Lang, but she doesn't like it if everything is for profit. She also likes money, but she can't do it. If it really succeeds, there will be more benefits.

She actually knew what her mother was thinking. It seemed that deep down in her heart, she still wanted to get the benefits first. That was true, but it was too utilitarian. Shen Lang would really run away. Liu Xiaoli was still an empiricist. She seemed to have forgotten that she had been dumped twice.

It’s not that I forgot, it’s that Liu Xiaoli has become confident again. Even if I dumped you twice, you still turned back.

……

"Brother Xiao Ming, thank you for your help." Young Master Wang hung up the phone, feeling a little helpless. He had just contacted the leader for a simple purpose, asking him to help set up a plan. However, the leader also said that he would try his best.

Young Master Wang gave in, or rather, he was a very smart man and had already decided to ease the relationship with Shen Lang, after all, they had been best men together.

He is not a playboy. No matter what the final result is, the fact that he can create a persona for himself on the Internet is still commendable.

However, he met Shen Lang, who did not play by the rules. If it were anyone else, he would have been right to criticize them, such as Fat Bingbing, Zhang Xingyu, or even Li Chen, the little cannon, and he would have enjoyed criticizing them.

It's not because he can control the theaters, there is only one reason, he doesn't have to worry about his reputation being ruined, he has too many ways out, unlike celebrities, whose careers may be over if their image collapses.

This time, he felt that he had treated Shen Lang well by not naming him as before. Shen Lang did not respond and at most people would mock him. But who would have thought that it would be fine if others mocked him, but he would respond so harshly when he spoke up.

The reason why he attacked Shen Lang was that he was really angry. Shen Lang was a celebrity, and everyone said that they would eat his leftovers. This aroused his already arrogant character who did not take celebrities seriously. There was another most important reason: too many people attacked Shen Lang, but he kept silent.

He thought Shen Lang was lying flat before he started attacking, and he didn't use too much force. Who would have thought that Shen Lang was so sensitive.

Then this situation happened. Wanda wanted to invite him and Shen Lang to sit down, and he agreed. But who would have thought that Shen Lang was unwilling to do so. To be honest, he couldn't understand why Shen Lang was like this.

Wanda is a capital company, after all. If you are not afraid, is there any need to offend it? This is also a point that no one can understand, but he just made it through, and it was very easy.

Just let him come through. Why go against the cinemas? Both sides will suffer and he might as well win.

The theaters believe that they are the final winners, and you can achieve this effect in every movie. Being out of fashion is something every star has to endure, but they don’t have it easy, and for the sake of money, they can only lick it.

As for the two movies "Big Shot" and "Zhu Xian", if calculated based on the current box office, Wanda should have at least 2 billion box office, and their cinema chain accounts for about 20% of the annual box office.

Of the 2 billion box office, 57% went to cinemas, which is more than 1 billion. The loss of more than 1 billion in revenue in two months, how much is the box office in a year? Only 10 billion, which means a direct loss of 20 points. Several senior executives have already been fired.

The higher-ups don't care who caused the trouble. If everyone had to pay, that would be fine, but if it's just you, someone must be responsible.

However, the higher-ups still want to solve the problem. So, Young Master Wang plans to solve it, but he really has no idea how.

He has a good relationship with the leader Baby, and Yang Mi also knows her, but he also knows that she is also friends with Shen Lang. It’s okay to pass on a message, but he has to do something to make her work harder and feel the pain.

Then, he received the message and was a little disappointed. Shen Lang knew it was him and didn't even think about reconciliation, which made him very angry. He felt like he was really being manipulated.

He originally wanted to appear at the celebration banquet of "Zhu Xian" and have a drink with Shen Lang at the end. Everyone knew what he meant. Now, he can't go. Of course, he can find a way to get an invitation, but if others don't give him face, there is no point in going.

Young Master Wang felt it was very troublesome, but he didn't care. He had no patience and could only wait. He couldn't understand why Shen Lang didn't want to make money. As for finding a way to apologize to Shen Lang, he couldn't do it. Being the middleman was his last bit of stubbornness.

……

The celebration party was held the day after Liu Yifei came back, and she came back just in time. This celebration party was just a small gathering, and there was no plan for large-scale publicity to stimulate the box office. It was not of much use, so just take whatever money she could make.

Everyone came this time. Shen Lang went to pick up Liu Yifei. When he arrived, most people had already arrived.

Well, Da Tiantian is here too. That’s right, she is also one of the female protagonists. If she didn’t come, all the benefits would be taken away by Liu Yifei, which would not be appropriate.

After entering the venue, most of the people there were their own people. Shen Lang also found his idol and talked about work. Hu Ge was really his idol, so he also killed some time.

After looking at the people who came, he was suddenly a little surprised. How come Baby, the new mother, was here? Shen Lang didn't see her on the list.

"It's a professional drama. The female lead and I have worked together before. I know her, Jiang Renzi. We worked together on "Silent Separation." Shen Lang and Hu Ge chatted about the drama he is currently filming.

It was the drama "Hunting Ground", in which Suga Renzi was the female lead. Shen Lang also didn't know what kind of relationship she had with Lao Hu to be the female lead now. She should have taken the role before "Langya Bang" or something like that, he didn't understand.

Nowadays, Lao Hu is also in high spirits. The original time and space has been Lao Hu's home turf in the past two years. His endorsements and traffic popularity have all been top-notch. Now with the bonus of "Zhu Xian", it is even more amazing.

Strictly speaking, his ranking is higher than that of the leader. Both of them are special leading roles, but he has more roles.

In fact, his ranking in the film industry is definitely not as high as that of the leader, but the leader's role is just a semi-guest appearance, so he doesn't care about this, or it's too late to care about it now.

Shen Lang and Suga Renzi also have contact, but it is just a relationship of sending holiday greetings. It is not even as good as the relationship of the Abalone Impure group. After all, the two of them have some sleeping relationship, but after leaving, they are sensible enough to forget about it. They are really a couple on the crew.

……

"Why are you here? Didn't you say you were here to see the baby?" After chatting with Lao Hu for a few words, Baby came up to me.

"I wasn't sure in the first place, so I just came when I had time. Do you take me as an idiot? With such great popularity, I would rather not give it up. By the way, let me ask you something." Baby said.

"I don't know. You're just curious." Shen Lang is no longer pretending. He will definitely ask about Liu Yifei. He is used to watching the fun and is wishful thinking.

In fact, Shen Lang and Liu Yifei had agreed not to be too obvious today, even if someone guessed it. It was not that they were afraid of others knowing. Shen Lang didn't care, but Liu Yifei was not very willing.

She said frankly that she and Shen Lang were exes a few months ago, but now they are together. It's awkward. Shen Lang understood before she finished speaking. The main reason was that her girlfriend Da Tiantian was also there at the time. This kind of thing was very awkward.

I contacted many colleagues, and then distributed bonuses, which were basically the same as those for "Big Shot". Nowadays, this drama will definitely not make as much money as "Big Shot", after all, the investment is large, but it has to be there.

Anyway, it's normal to spend a few million on a celebration banquet, but that's it, and everyone is very satisfied. The box office of "Zhu Xian" is not low, but we are all practitioners and have never thought that we must give out money if the box office is high.

The main thing is that everyone has self-knowledge. If you have the influence that Guangtou Xu has on a movie, it is normal for you to have some influence. However, what is praised for "Zhu Xian" now is its special effects, and the special effects are the credit of Shen Lang, and many people watch it just for him. It is so unreasonable. Who dares to think that his contribution is greater than his?

"Can we chat?" Da Tiantian finally came over. Shen Lang didn't try to distance himself from her, but he didn't get too close to her either. He already had a girlfriend, and although he felt sorry for Da Tiantian, he still had to keep the proper distance from her.

Da Tiantian looked at Shen Lang, then at Liu Yifei, and felt that something was wrong. There must be something wrong with these two people.

"what happened?"

"Are you really dating her?" Da Tiantian didn't even say her name.

"Uh, yes, this is not very obvious." Shen Lang is still the same character and will not hide anything.

Then, Da Tiantian just left, and Shen Lang was a little confused.

The celebration banquet had just ended and Shen Lang was planning how to cultivate his relationship with Liu Yifei, such as not going home and playing the role of Haier Brothers, but there was a piece of news that made Liu Yifei withdraw.

She wasn't angry, but it seemed like she was using this incident to teach him a lesson.

A photo was leaked on the Internet, which was a photo of Shen Lang in the elevator. This photo doesn’t matter if it is viewed alone, but what if it is the same elevator that Da Tiantian had exposed before? This is her home.

(It’s definitely late, several days late. The next chapter has 7,000 words, so I’ll make up 2,000 words as an apology. I’m sorry everyone)
