Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

"Tang Yuyu, you weren't just criticizing me, were you?"

"No, I'm praising you. You're the best husband in the world! You're the most handsome, the best, and my precious darling!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruoyun burst into laughter on the other end of the phone, and everyone present also laughed hysterically.

"I told you, she just keeps using sweet talk to coax them. Look at these two."

After Sha Yi finished speaking, Zhang Ruoyun also finished laughing and spoke up.

"My Yuyu is the best, the prettiest, and the cutest, honey. Just tell me what you want me to do. It's just a matter of a word between us. You don't need to flatter me like this."

"Well, it's nothing, I just want you to sing 'Gently' once to show off your unparalleled singing skills. Today we're officially entering the music scene."

Zhang Ruoyun paused for a few seconds: "Didn't I sneak in by taking advantage of my wife's fame?"

"Let's try again!"

Tang Yu spoke without hesitation, and Zhang Ruoyun could only surrender and start humming along.

On the day the show aired, Zhang Ruoyun posted the song on Weibo and also took the opportunity to promote his wife's movie.

Viewers and fans who watched the variety show flocked to listen to the full version of the lullaby.

"My goodness, it sounds so gentle when I hear it on the show."

The official version sounds even gentler now; I'm captivated by the melody and the vocals.

"What a sweet and affectionate song! Sincerity is truly the most touching thing."

"This is the first time that someone else has composed a song for Sister Yu. Brother Yun hummed it so gently. I have only one feeling: I want to be their child."

This comment received countless likes!

"Sister Yu's makeup and styling in this episode are so fresh and cute, with a light green headband and a light green long dress."

They look so energetic and full of vitality.

"Ever since Sister Yu was a child star, I've always felt that she has a rosy complexion, is healthy, and full of vitality."

She looks radiant after giving birth, it seems she's having a great time. My brother-in-law is definitely a good husband.

"But Sister Yu's mother is really funny. She took advantage of her daughter giving birth to rob the refrigerator of all the ice cream."

"But it was no use. After the confinement period ended, Brother Yun took Sister Yu out to eat, drink and have fun every day."

This comment made everyone burst into laughter.

Someone raised a profound question.

"Auntie forbade Yu Jie from dyeing her hair and dating, but after she turned eighteen, Brother Yun immediately won her over and they started dating and dyeing her hair!"

During postpartum confinement, you're not allowed to eat anything with strong flavors. Once a month is up, Brother Yun takes Sister Yu out for barbecue, hot pot, and ice cream.

Haha, how did Auntie accept this son-in-law? I'm really curious.

"Yes, after the postpartum period ended, the two of them went out to eat, drink, and have fun for several days in a row. They were photographed eating every day, and they even went fishing. It was like they were in jail."

"Perhaps this is how harmonious family relationships work: at home, the child is the parents' obedient child, but outside, the child is unrestrained and willful, and both sides turn a blind eye."

"Although Yun-ge only made one phone call in this episode, I was really impressed."

It's so funny when they're exchanging sweet nothings. I wonder what it feels like to be flattered by each other every day.

"There are online praise groups where you can pay someone to praise you every day."

This way of giving directions made everyone burst into laughter; it really shows that they can offer all kinds of businesses and services.

"Speaking of which, the second season of Fox Spirit Matchmaker is about to be released. I'm quite looking forward to this movie. I was very satisfied with the special effects of the first season, and I feel that the special effects of the second season should be even more amazing."

"Sister Yu's movies have never been bad, so go for it without worry. I'm already looking forward to the premiere."

On Friday, July 16th, the movie was finally released.

Chapter 68 Home with Kids 68

Because the first film had a good reputation, and the second film had a very large promotional campaign.

Therefore, the film performed very well at the box office on its opening day. The pre-sales in the previous few days reached 50 million yuan, and after its release, the box office on the opening day directly reached 120 million yuan.

As the top contender for the summer blockbuster season, major cinemas have high expectations for this film after the pandemic, giving it high-level treatment in terms of promotion and screenings.

Therefore, the box office results on the first day were very satisfactory in all aspects, and word-of-mouth from various platforms gradually emerged starting in the morning.

"I knew Sister Yu wouldn't let me down. I rushed to the movie theater at eight o'clock in the morning and watched the earliest movie. When I came out, it was a little after ten o'clock."

I only have one thought: I want to watch it again. The special effects are absolutely amazing. No wonder it took almost two years to make.

And the film's soundtrack is absolutely masterful! Sister Yu, please take good care of your face when you act! She's incredibly cool!

"Family members, I highly recommend you go to the cinema to see it. You can't experience that ultimate beauty without a big screen. It's simply the best combination of Eastern aesthetics and special effects!"

It's even more romantic and magnificent than I imagined a fairyland. While the special effects in the first movie were also great, the second one is absolutely amazing!

"Although this movie has nothing to do with the Investiture of the Gods, it really fulfilled the fantasies I had when I watched the Investiture of the Gods as a child."

The sheer power and awe-inspiring aura emanating from those demons and monsters as they battled and unleashed their magical weapons truly made it feel like a world inhabited by gods and demons. And when my sister Yu broke through the Ten Thousand Demon Formation and the Immortal Slaying Formation, she was absolutely incredible!

"They all didn't think highly of you, but you proved them wrong. Jiu Jiu, that fox, is really too strong. She can kill gods and Buddhas alike!"

In the previous movie, she discovered that the person she liked had deceived her, and then she killed him without hesitation. In this movie, she found her biological father, and I immediately suspected a conspiracy.

Sure enough, at the end, Jiu Jiu killed her father, leaving only his tail. Unfortunately, for the third movie, the old man's father didn't die; he even went to find reinforcements!

"The moment I sat in the movie theater, from the very first second, I felt like the budget was burning. How much money was invested in this movie? The special effects are simply top-notch, and they are even the Chinese-style special effects that I like."

"I heard the cost is 700 million, and with the marketing and distribution, it might be another 200 to 300 million. It would take 3 billion to break even. That's a really big investment!"

"There's not much to say. After watching it, I only regret one thing: why didn't I manage to get tickets for the IMAX theater? With such special effects and top-notch audiovisual enjoyment, I'm going to watch it again tonight!"

"It's so good, so good, so good! I can't stress this enough, everyone go watch it now!"

Over 95% of the reviews on all online platforms are positive, and the few negative reviews are often overlooked.

After all, there will always be haters and those who think they are the only ones who are sober when everyone else is drunk.

The praise from major online platforms focused on several aspects. First, the special effects were amazing and very enjoyable to watch. Second, the special effects, which showcased Eastern aesthetics, were a pleasant surprise. Third, the plot was exciting and thrilling.

With such overwhelmingly positive reviews and the absence of strong competitors who hired online trolls to promote their films, the movie's box office doubled on the second day, and by Saturday's box office had exceeded 2.4 million yuan.

When Tang Yu was on a roadshow in Chengdu, it happened to be a Sunday. By then, the box office had already reached more than 200 million yuan in the afternoon, and it looked like it was about to reverse the decline.

Amidst this overwhelming momentum, the atmosphere among the audience and media was one of joy and harmony.

"Are there any similarities in the personalities of Sister Yu and Jiu Jiu?"

"Of course there are. Jiu Jiu is someone who never suffers from internal conflict. She may feel frustrated, lost, or doubt herself, but these emotions will only last for a short moment. Then she will look for solutions. No difficulty can stop her."

When I encounter problems in life, my first thought is to learn to solve them myself. It's better to rely on yourself than others; no one in this world is as reliable as yourself.

After Tang Yu answered the question, someone asked Sha Yi a question.

What was Sha Yi's biggest takeaway after filming this movie?

Sha Yi laughed as he held the microphone.

"I just want to know if I'll survive the third movie, but the director won't tell me!"

Everyone turned their attention to Wang Can, who smiled helplessly.

"The script is still being written, and I don't even know what I'll be filming."

At this point, the media asked Chen Daoming another question.

Because of Chen Daoming's image, the questions were all quite serious, and Chen Daoming highly praised the professionalism of the production team.

It's a typical Chinese heavy industry film, with a very scientific overall plan and a very strong and professional behind-the-scenes team.

By the end of Sunday night, the box office had just surpassed 3 million.

With such a strong momentum and rave reviews, the film's box office is projected to reach around 5 billion.

However, the domestic market already has such capacity, so everyone is full of confidence in the box office; 5 billion is not a problem at all.

Even so, the creative team continued to promote the film by holding roadshows in major cities across the country.

For the next week, the daily box office fluctuated around 2 million, and then it broke through 2.5 million over the weekend.

The movie, which was released on July 16, had already grossed 33 billion yuan by August 1, after only half a month of release.

Fans who loved the movie even went to an IMAX theater for a second viewing, just to experience the ultimate audiovisual enjoyment.

For regular movies, there's not much difference between a large and small theater, but for special effects movies, the difference is huge; the big screen provides a completely different experience.

In addition, there are different sound effect playback systems, so the experience in each hall can be different.

Tang Yu receives an inquiry at almost every roadshow: When will the third installment be filmed?

"Having a script alone is not enough. Many special effects need to be prepared in advance, so the earliest we can expect it is next year. Actually, I don't know when that will be. It depends on when our team finishes the pre-production work."

Tang Yu even felt that it would be more normal to start filming the year after next, since they would have to do pre-production work all year next year.

After their roadshow in Hangzhou that day, they moved on to the next city, Qingdao, which was already August 3rd.

On the day Tang Yu arrived in Qingdao, Zhang Ruoyun took leave to pick up his wife.

“My Yu Yu looks so radiant and happy.”

"Of course, I'm the most popular person this month."

After Tang Yu finished speaking, Zhang Ruoyun smiled as he held her hand.

“When I video chatted with my mom yesterday, the two babies were laughing happily. I guess they were happy for their mom’s achievements.”

Tang Yu laughed and kicked the other person.

"Would you believe that if I told you that? Don't go too far with commercial hype."

Upon hearing this sarcastic remark, Zhang Ruoyun burst into laughter and nestled against his wife's neck from behind.

"Can't you just play along and praise our little darling a bit?"

"Praise should only be given in front of the person in question. When they grow up, I will definitely praise them to the point that they are the most unique in the world."

Zhang Ruoyun thought of what his wife would say if she appeared on a variety show.
