Entertainment From Divorce

Artist management department.

Zhou Can sat in front of the computer, browsing some information.

He just came back from his hometown today.

Zhou Can didn't go back to his hometown last year. He was busy touring all over the country in the first half of the year and filming in the United States in the second half.

After returning to China, he did not go back even when others took vacations.

During the filming process, Zhou Can learned a lot, including what Tan Yue said and suggestions from Ma Guoliang, Fan Shan and others.

He wanted to digest things quickly and improve his acting skills to a higher level.

Later, the movie promotion began and it was not until the end of the year that I went home.

Zhou Can didn't know when he would have the chance to return to his hometown again, so he took advantage of the Chinese New Year and stayed there for a few more days.

Looking at the latest box office data on the official website of the International Cultural Center, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

The cumulative box office performance of "The Shawshank Redemption" in seven days was higher than that of "The Godfather" in the same period last year.

The final box office performance of "The Godfather" is the second in global film history, and it is only one point behind the first-placed "Midnight".

This gave Zhou Can a bold idea: Can the box office performance of "The Shawshank Redemption" top the global box office rankings?

With the current popularity of "The Shawshank Redemption", it is not difficult for people to have such an idea.

Zhou Can leaned on the chair, feeling extremely emotional.

For him, during the entire filming process of the movie, he tried his best to play the role of "Andy" every day.

Opportunities like this are hard to come by, but if you miss them, you don’t know when you will have to wait until next time.

So Zhou Can worked hard.

I only sleep four or five hours a day. The rest of the time I am either filming or analyzing the characters and plot with the script.

Although it was very hard at the time, seeing such box office results today, all the efforts were worth it.

‘Ding Dong’ The mobile phone placed next to the mouse rang.

Zhou Can calmed down, picked up the phone and looked at the message on it, smiling helplessly.

"Congratulations! Congratulations! "The Shawshank Redemption" has achieved such good box office results in the global film market! It won't take long for you to become popular all over the world."

Zhou Can looked at the name and couldn't remember what this person looked like.

It's not that noble people forget things, it's that they have no impression of this person at all.

There is no memory of when the friends were added to each other.

Zhou Can did not reply to the message.

Since the first day's box office results of "The Shawshank Redemption" were announced on the second day of the Lunar New Year, he has received many congratulatory messages.

After all, it is a joyful thing to reply at the beginning.

But later, Zhou Can found that he was receiving more and more messages, and many of them had the same impression as the person who just sent the message.

In addition to relatives and friends, most of them are directors.

They all want to take advantage of Zhou Can's fame not completely becoming popular internationally and invite him to star in a movie.

If "Shawshank Redemption" is really the same as "The Godfather", then inviting Zhou Can will be a different price.

‘Ding dong’ the phone rang again.

Zhou Can glanced at it, but still had no intention of replying.

The other party was a director who wanted to invite Zhou Can to star in a movie, and said the price was negotiable.

Regardless of whether it was a small director or a well-known director, Zhou Can rejected them all.

On the one hand, he knows that he still needs to learn, and he is still a little far away from being an experienced actor like Ma Guoliang.

On the other hand, there are no high-quality scripts.

Zhou Can put his cell phone into silent mode, took out a notebook from the drawer, and looked at it carefully. On it were some acting skills he had summarized.

Beijing.

General Administration of Culture, Ye Wen's Office.

Ye Wen took a sip of water, put down the cup and continued working on the documents.

Some countries in Southeast Asia want to purchase the broadcast rights of some domestic TV series. The three parties have already held two meetings, and a third meeting will be held in a week.

The three parties are the General Administration of Culture, the producers of the TV series, and one party is naturally a representative from a Southeast Asian country.

Of course Ye Wen hopes to sell the rights to the TV series at as high a price as possible.

She still had to think about how to talk to the other party.

A moment later, a knock on the door interrupted Ye Wen's thoughts.

"Enter."

The secretary opened the door and came in: "Bureau Ye, there are still ten minutes left, the meeting will start soon."

Ye Wen nodded and said, "I understand. I've made a PPT here. You go over and prepare it first. I'll be there soon."

"Yes." The secretary closed the door and went out.

Ye Wen first put the files away, then picked up a black notebook and headed to the conference room.

Today is the first meeting after the Chinese New Year, and everyone in Beijing will attend.

At this time, the largest conference room of the General Administration of Culture was full of people chatting.

“After the New Year, I feel like I’ve gained a few pounds more.”

"You ate too well."

"Hey, during the Chinese New Year in my hometown, my mouth has never been free since I got home. All kinds of things are popping into my mouth."

"It's so nice to celebrate the New Year in my hometown. I didn't go home. My parents came here to celebrate the New Year. I haven't celebrated the New Year in my hometown for a few years. I miss you when you say that."

"Let me tell you, I still have to go back to my hometown for the New Year. Although it is the same as bringing my parents over, after all, I am in another place, so there is a lot less feeling."

"After celebrating the Chinese New Year this year, I will go directly back to my hometown."

"Bureau Ye is here."

The noisy conference room suddenly became much quieter with Ye Wen's arrival.

The secretary reported: "Bureau Ye, we are ready."

"Is everyone here?"

"Everyone is here."

"Okay." Ye Wen nodded, sat in the middle seat, and tapped the phone.

For a moment, there was no more talking in the conference room.

Ye Wen said: "Everyone has arrived, our meeting has begun."

In the following period, Ye Wen introduced the work plan for the next year and some development prospects.

Since the establishment of the International Cultural Center, films have accelerated their pace to the world.

Ye Wen focused on her movie plans.

Speaking of movies, Ye Wen said: "I believe you all know the movie "The Shawshank Redemption" during this time. Let me tell you that the cumulative box office of this movie in seven days was US$2.491 billion. "

Although movies are very popular, there must be some people who don't pay much attention to these aspects, even if they work at the General Administration of Culture.

"Many people should have a general idea of ​​the box office. Let's put it this way, last year's global hit "The Godfather", its box office performance in one week was not as high as "The Shawshank Redemption"." Speaking of this, Ye Wen was very pleased. , Tan Yue once again let her know what unlimited potential is.

"So, the group that pays attention to the movie, you should pay more attention to the reviews of this movie in the international market, and report any abnormalities to me in time." Ye Wen said: "Our domestic movies have gone too far in taking this step towards the world. It’s difficult, as long as there is an excellent movie like "The Shawshank Redemption", we must strongly support it."

Everyone in the conference room listened carefully, and some people recorded something from time to time.

Ye Wen continued to talk about work arrangements.

Hangzhou.

Chen Xiang drove back home, the corners of his mouth raised even harder than AK.

He just met a girl before the Chinese New Year. The two of them chatted very passionately and wanted to chat until midnight every day.

The two parties shared little things in life with each other, and Chen Xiang seemed to fall in love.

Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year to rest at home, Chen Xiang asked girls out every day.

After unremitting efforts, he finally succeeded, and today the girl agreed to his pursuit.

The two people confirmed their relationship.

Chen Xiang parked the car in the garage and returned to his room to send a message to the girl: "I'm already home."

The girl quickly responded with a playful "gotcha" emoji.

Chen Xiang looked at the phone screen and smiled silly, then asked: "How did you feel about today's movie?"

Two people went to see "The Shawshank Redemption".

"It's very nice. In fact, I never told you that I really like Mr. Tan Yue's movies. When I knew you bought the movie ticket for "The Shawshank Redemption", I was happy for a long time."

Chen Xiang's eyes suddenly brightened, and he excitedly tapped the screen of his mobile phone, "My brother-in-law is Tan." Before he finished typing, he quickly deleted the sentence.

He thought about it and felt it wasn't appropriate.

After all, the two people have just established a relationship. At present, they only understand each other's basic situation, and they have not yet got a deeper understanding.

Things in the family can be revealed later when the relationship is more stable.

Although the relationship between his own sister and Tan Yue is already known to everyone.

Chen Xiang re-edited a text and sent it: "I was worried that you didn't like this type of movie!"

"How is that possible? I have always liked Tan Yue when he was doing variety shows. Later he switched to making TV series and movies, and I have been following him."

"I didn't expect you to be a true fan."

"If you have never chased stars, you may not know that Teacher Tan Yue is different from others."

Chen Xiang said "Hey hey" and thought, how could I not understand? He is my brother-in-law.

The girl continued to send a message: "I thought Ma Guoliang would be the star of "The Shawshank Redemption", but I didn't expect it to be Zhou Can."

"Don't you like Zhou Can?"

"In comparison, Zhou Can is certainly good, but I still hope Ma Guoliang can play the leading role."

"Then you are also a fan of Ma Guoliang."

"His acting skills are very good, and it's very enjoyable to watch his movies."

Chen Xiang had a flash of inspiration and typed: "Do you want signed photos of Tan Yue and Ma Guoliang?"

"Ah? Of course I want it. Do you have it?"

Chen Xiang opened the photo album and found several photos of the two of them taken when Tan Yue came last year.

He wanted to send it, but in the end, reason prevailed over emotion.

"I don't have it now, but I can get it for you."

"Who wants it?"

"Of course I want it from them."

The girl directly sent a 'shocked' emoticon.

"I'm just kidding you. I have a sister. She used to chase stars every day. I think I saw a signed photo of her. I'll bring it to you."

"Isn't this good?"

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this."

"Forget it. The autographed photo is quite precious. It would be bad if your sister found it."

"She's not at home. She's working outside. She won't come back for a year. She won't find out." Chen Xiang smiled and sent this message.

While chatting with the girl, he sent a message to Chen Ziyu: "Sister, are you there?"

Chen Xiang held his cell phone and chatted with the girl for a long time.

Half an hour later, Chen Ziyu still did not reply to the message.

Chen Xiang felt a little anxious and quickly called.

Bright Entertainment Company, President's Office.

‘A sneeze’

Chen Ziyu sneezed again, thinking that she wouldn't catch a cold.

I sneezed several times in a row.

At this time, the phone rang. I picked up the phone and saw that it was my own brother, and answered the call.

"Sister, what are you busy with? Why don't you reply to my message?"

"When did you send me the message?"

"Half an hour ago."

"I was busy working, so I didn't see it." Chen Ziyu said, "If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. I still have to go to work."

"Sister, can you help me get an autographed photo for my brother-in-law? There's also Ma Guoliang's photo."

Chen Ziyu frowned and asked, "Why do you want an autograph and a photo?"

"I have a friend who wants it."

"Friends? What friends?"

"Just an ordinary friend."

When Chen Xiang said this, Chen Ziyu immediately noticed an unusual aura and said, "Forget it, just ordinary friends."

When speaking, he also deliberately emphasized the word "ordinary".

Chen Xiang had no choice but to explain what he had just talked about with his girlfriend.

"Okay, you! You even hid it from me when you got a girlfriend!"

Chen Xiang said coyly: "We just confirmed the relationship, and I thought I would tell you when it gradually stabilizes."

"What's the girl's name? Where do you live? What is your job?"

"Stop! Sister, the FBI! The investigation is so clear!"

"It's not easy to find a girlfriend. I have to see what kind of little girl can catch my young master's eyes." Chen Ziyu looked like a follower.

On the other hand, Chen Xiang now regrets extremely much.

I regret my decision to ask the girl for an autographed photo without permission, and I regret asking my sister to get this autographed photo.

Chen Xiang, who was wearing a mask of pain, tried to change the subject: "Sister, I will talk to you in detail another time. Can you give me a few signed photos? Please!"

Chen Ziyu said deliberately: "If you don't tell me, it will be difficult to get autographs and photos!"

Chen Xiang could only briefly talk about the girl's basic situation.

Chen Ziyu said happily: "Give me the signed photo and I will mail it to your home later."

Chen Xiang said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, sister."

People under the eaves have to bow their heads.

He silently swore in his heart that he would never do such a thing without authorization again.

"Dad, mom are at home?" After all, Chen Ziyu still missed home very much after not going home for the New Year.

"They went to work on company matters." Chen Xiang also returned to his serious look: "I just spent two days at home during the Chinese New Year, and went to the company on the third day of the new year."

Chen Ziyu said "hmm" and said nothing.

My parents were always like this in previous years.

The two siblings chatted on the phone for a while before hanging up.

Chen Ziyu sat in front of the computer and continued working.
