A great director who grew up happily

Qiao Yingzi held her forehead with her hand and was about to explain to him, but she saw Li Meng's figure out of the corner of her eye and said, "Let's talk later."

He quickly said this and immediately turned around and sat down.

After the morning reading, Qiao Yingzi quickly said, "Don't you know, Fang Yifan ran away from home last night?"

Chen Jinnian was full of questions and said, "What day was it yesterday? No, I have to check the almanac to see if it says 'It's advisable to run away from home'." Then he took out his mobile phone and started searching on the Internet.

"You don't believe it, then I'll let Lei'er tell you."

Qiao Yingzi turned around and called Lin Lei'er over.

"Classmate Qiao, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Lin Lei'er walked over and said politely.

"It's about what happened last night. Talk to Jinnian about it. He doesn't know yet that your cousin ran away from home." Qiao Yingzi said.

"Oh, it was just yesterday that my aunt received a phone call. After talking for a while, she suddenly got angry and then beat up my cousin. It was then that I realized that I had been feeling sleepy recently because my cousin had given me tranquilizers." Lin Lei'er said slowly, as if he was not the one who was drugged.

Chen Jinnian had known about Fang Yifan's drugging for a long time, but he didn't expect that Fang Yifan would dare to continue drugging Lin Lei'er after she missed her stop.

However, he seemed to have discovered a subtle point. "You said your aunt received a call. Whose call was it?"

Then he turned his gaze to Qiao Yingzi.

"What do you see me doing?"

"It's nothing. I think it was your mother Song Qian who called. Otherwise, how would Lin Lei'er's aunt Tong Wenjie know about it?" Chen Jinnian continued.

"That should be the case." Lin Lei'er nodded in agreement. "Although my aunt didn't say who told her, she did say that my cousin said I had insomnia and asked Qiao for tranquilizers."

"Look, the case is solved." Chen Jinnian spread his hands. "You must have deliberately not gone home yesterday, so your mother called other people to inquire. After asking around, she found Aunt Tong. After the two of them reconciled their accounts, Fang Yifan surfaced."

After hearing his analysis, even Qiao Yingzi felt that it was very likely, and that this was something her mother would do.

However, Chen Jinnian thought more about it. He felt that this was the law of conservation of beatings. Being beaten would neither appear out of thin air nor disappear out of thin air.

It will only transfer from one person's butt to another person's butt.

Because Qiao Yingzi used a cheat (Old Qiao) and escaped the punishment that should have belonged to her, somehow all of this was transferred to Fang Yifan, who was beaten so hard that he ran away from home.

"What happened next?" Chen Jinnian asked quickly.

"Later, my uncle-in-law went out to look for my cousin, and my aunt and I waited at home. But I was so sleepy that I fell asleep." Lin Lei'er touched the back of his head and smiled shyly.

"But when I got up in the morning, I saw that my cousin had already returned. My aunt even asked him to stay home for a day, saying that it was a good opportunity for him to help with the move."

"Lei'er, are you going to start moving today?" Qiao Yingzi asked. She knew that the house on the second floor would be rented to Fang Yifan's family, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"Yes, my uncle-in-law said that he will be going on a business trip in a few days and will have to stay away for a while, so if we want to move, we can only do it in these few days." Lin Lei'er explained.

Chen Jinnian was not interested in talking about moving anymore. He opened his phone and checked the box office revenue of his movie.

Today is the twelfth day of the movie’s broadcast on the online platform. As of early morning, the cumulative box office share for the first eleven days was 1587.8 million.

The growth potential of the shared box office has been exhausted, and the remaining time will enter a long period of decline.

Chen Jinnian estimated that in about ten days, the film's share of the box office revenue would reach 20 million.

However, he was not sure whether the box office revenue could continue to increase by 5 million in the next five months and the total box office revenue would exceed 25 million.

After all, the current paid membership base of Penguin Video is less than 10 million, far from the user scale of tens of millions later, so it is very likely that the box office ceiling of this movie will be around 24 million.

However, this result is still outrageous, as his share of the box office revenue is pure profit.

You should know that in the first half of last year, after Huayi Company's transformation, the company's entire film business segment only brought in 3200 million in operating profits.

In terms of profitability alone, there is no problem with online movies. What they lack is actually the low box office ceiling and the low public influence.

Even Xu Dongdong, the number one star in online movies and the meaningless absolute heroine, can only play a supporting role in theater movies.

Chen Jinnian has to use the money earned from the online film market to open the door to the theater market and gain industry recognition.

Once he gains a certain degree of fame, his subsequent filming plans will be smoother.

In the next few days, everyone was busy with their own things.

Wang Yidi is busy taking art exam classes.

Qiao Yingzi was busy with her lessons.

Fang Yifan was busy with the "third party" interfering.

Xiao Meng and Lao Qiao were busy breaking up.

Only Chen Jinnian is the busiest. He is not only busy calculating the box office every day and making film project plans, but also busy booking tickets.

It is not easy to find Uncle Yu offline. If it were ten years ago, you would definitely be able to see him in a small theater.

But at this point in time, it is almost impossible to see their performances in small theaters in Beijing. You can only see Uncle Yu in specific commercial performances.

If you only submit the script through an agency, there is a high possibility that it will be put aside after you submit it. After all, a script is too long. If you are inviting a supporting role, the script you receive will still be incomplete.

Popular artists don’t have time to read these things. If their management team were to choose, they would just pick the one with the highest pay and the highest ranking.

Even a director like Yu Hao has to accommodate the first-line actors and find a time to chat with them while eating.

If it was an unknown artist, Chen Jinnian would have directly sent him a script invitation, but for someone like the old man, he was not sure whether the other party could read the script.

So he still had to go to the small theater.

Of course, he couldn’t meet Uncle Yu, he was looking for Meng Hetang.

Hall Master, this is Uncle Yu’s godson.

Chen Jinnian found the small theater where he was performing recently and took a look. That was the one.
