Yang Mi's mindset has undergone a subtle change.
Jiang Chen wasn't as amazing as she had imagined.
Jiang Chen is only exceptionally talented in the field of music.
"They have a long way to go if they want to surpass my annual income!"
"Haste makes waste; patiently develop your strengths!"
Liu Yifei also felt that Jiang Chen was not omnipotent.
He also has his shortcomings.
But the music's sharpness overshadowed everything else, making him seem very impressive.
"The movie was a failure, and it will take him several years to turn a profit."
"A few years have passed, and he has grown old."
"If we continue to make trouble like this, it won't end well."
"Singing well is the right path!"
Liu Shishi and Tang Yan stood firmly on Jiang Chen's side and supported him.
One failure at one time does not mean permanent failure.
As long as Jiang Chen puts his heart and soul into it, one day he will be able to secure a place in the film and television industry.
"As the person closest to him, all I can do is not betray him."
"If he owes money, lend him money."
"If he needs help, do everything you can to help him."
Jing Tian had mixed feelings.
She certainly didn't want Jiang Chen's movie to fail.
Unfortunately, reality was cruel, and she had no choice but to accept the outcome.
She was attracted by Jiang Chen's talent and good looks.
I don't want such a good person to fall into depravity and never recover.
"I wonder how he's feeling right now."
Is Tang Yan with him?
"I really want to be there for him through this difficult time."
Yang Chaoyue, Wu Xuanyi, and Zhong Chuxi couldn't believe that "Dying to Survive" had such a poor box office performance.
When Jiang Chen told them, he was absolutely certain, guaranteeing it would be over a billion.
On such a joyous occasion as the Mid-Autumn Festival, the box office performance was so dismal; I don't know what to say.
"Is he too arrogant?"
"But he's always been a gentleman, hasn't he?"
"Which part of the process went wrong?"
Shenzhen.
Chen Lei, who was about to go out to see a movie, discovered that "Dying to Survive" had only grossed a few million yuan at the box office.
It didn't even break ten million.
Meanwhile, films released around the same time, such as Avengers: Infinity War, Us and Them, How Long Will I Love U, and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, all grossed over 10 million.
Some have even exceeded 100 million.
"Dying to Survive" is almost at the bottom of the list.
It's even worse than "Boonie Bears: The Big Shrink".
"Yuxuan, Jiang Chen's movie is terrible."
"It can't even compare to the animated series 'Boonie Bears: The Big Shrink'."
Zhao Yuxuan, who was putting on makeup and getting ready to go to the movies, felt a pang of anxiety upon hearing the news.
"What?"
"They can't even compare to Xiong Da and Xiong Er?"
Chen Lei: "Yes!"
Zhao Yuxuan: "How much is 'Dying to Survive' at the box office now?"
Chen Lei: "More than five million!"
Zhao Yuxuan: "Holy crap! How could it be so bad?"
Chen Lei: "I don't know either; Jiang Chen might not be as awesome as we imagine."
Zhao Yuxuan: "That's so lame, I can't believe it's true."
Chen Lei: "If you don't believe me, come and see for yourself."
Zhao Yuxuan put down her eyebrow pencil and came over to check on the situation.
The result was consistent with what Chen Lei had said.
To date, "Dying to Survive" has only grossed a mere five million yuan at the box office.
Its screening schedule is average, neither high nor low.
However, with such low box office numbers, the number of screenings will definitely decrease the next day.
Even if a film is of high quality, it will be difficult to achieve high box office returns if screenings are reduced.
"how so?"
"Is he really not strong enough?"
Chen Lei: "He's a new director, what kind of ability could he possibly have?"
"It's already good enough that we were able to film it at all."
Zhao Yuxuan: "No, we absolutely have to go to the cinema to see it."
"He never does anything he's not sure of."
"And he never boasts."
"He said that if it can achieve high box office returns, it definitely can."
Chen Lei: "Let's go to the amusement park instead. Watching a movie is a complete waste of time."
Zhao Yuxuan: "Go ahead and play if you want, I'm going to watch this movie."
Chen Lei was speechless.
Despite Jiang Chen's treatment of Zhao Yuxuan, Zhao Yuxuan still supports him.
Even if you're deeply in love, you shouldn't torture yourself like this.
"Shouldn't you be happy that he failed?"
Why the worry and tension?
Zhao Yuxuan retorted.
"He's my man, how can I be happy about his failure?"
"Besides, only his movie failed; the music didn't."
"He is still a star and can still make a lot of money. I have no right to laugh at him or kick him when he's down."
That makes sense.
Jiang Chen may seem to have failed, but in reality, he did not fail.
If he becomes the number one male singer in the Chinese music scene, he can earn a lot of money.
Copyright fees, advertising endorsements, variety show appearances, film and television fees, and concerts will all be sources of his income.
Chen Lei: "Alright, let's go to the movie theater and find out."
"Let's see if it's because he's not good enough, or if the audience is just blind."
...
Jiang Chen's family and friends were naturally very happy about the success of his debut film.
The better Jiang Chen does, the more foolish their initial choice seems.
Nobody wants to repent for what happened in the past.
They never supported Jiang Chen from the beginning.
"To achieve this level of success as a director after crossing over from another field, I can only say that he deserves it."
"They're too greedy; they're making movies before they've even finished the music."
"No wonder he failed in his business. He was arrogant and complacent, and made aimless investments, doing unnecessary things."
