In a blink of an eye, only Li Zhenyu, Yin Huina and Qiao Mei were left in the screening room.
Despite the strange looks from others, Qiao Mei stayed and her "business ability" was impeccable.
No wonder she always gets roles that others can't get.
Even if you have a good background, you still have to work hard enough to seize the opportunities given by others.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many prodigals.
"Song Hye Kyo, is there anything else?"
"Yes, I would like to ask PD Li to teach me some acting skills, about the big screen..."
Over the years, Song Hye Kyo has achieved achievements in TV dramas that others can hardly achieve in their lifetime.
This achievement gave rise to new ambitions.
Hitting the big screen...
She wants to transform from a national goddess to a big screen goddess, appear on the screen, and then go to the world.
Hollywood is a place of pilgrimage for all filmmakers.
Even someone as rebellious as Leo had to submit to the authority of the masters in the end.
Song Hye Kyo wants to go to Hollywood and enjoy the admiration of people from all over the world.
South Korea is really too small.
"We're going to have a celebration party, wanna join us?"
Li Zhenyu invited her, how could this gentle and pure girl next door refuse?
"Is it convenient?"
"Of course." Li Zhenyu smiled and said, "Who can refuse Song Hye Kyo?"
The celebratory party for the "New World" crew was held at Moro Miku Si Izakaya in Apgujeong-dong.
When Song Hye Kyo appeared with him, the scene immediately fell into joy.
The boss, who was preparing exquisite dishes, announced in person, "Today's consumption will be paid by me."
"Kang Sangmi." Song Hye Kyo shyly bowed to the president to express her gratitude. Her sweet smile is the best gift.
"Ah~really..." The president covered his heart with his hand and fell backwards with an exaggerated expression.
It was as if he would die for her in the next second.
"Great, Song Hye Kyo, can you sign for me?"
IU was the first to run over, holding a pen and paper with eyes full of admiration, like a real little fangirl.
"Yes~IU, right?" Song Hye Kyo had obviously done her homework.
After receiving the notice, she conducted a detailed investigation into Zy+.
She has all the public information about artists and trainees memorized in her mind.
"Yeah, I'm so happy that you know my name... I like you so much, I really do."
“Cool Cat Smecta (Everyday gratitude for small things makes it more intimate).”
"Ouni, can you sign for me too?" Han Suxi trotted forward, getting ahead of everyone else.
Being able to be cared for by a senior figure in the entertainment industry is naturally a great thing that one would wish for.
But the next second, she was knocked aside by someone's hip.
Lee Joo Bin took her place with a bright smile and said in the most cordial tone: "Ouni, I love you so much, Sarahei."
With a smile and a nod, Song Hye Kyo signed her name in the notebook in a casual manner.
There is also a beautiful blessing: I hope you can realize your dream soon.
As for the little sisterly fight between Lee Joo Bin and Han So Hee, she was not interested.
This kind of open and secret fighting between girls is really too low-level.
Apparently, she's not interested in low-end games...
"Okay, let's put the welcome and autographs aside. Now... first of all, we have to raise a toast together to celebrate the successful conclusion of the New World premiere."
"Oh oh~" cheers resounded throughout the venue.
Song Hye Kyo also sat down next to him, as for the person who was originally sitting in this position.
I am happy to give way to my muse and feel honored by it.
"Is it okay?" Li Zhenyu shook the grain wine in his hand. He liked this better than Jinro.
"Yes." Song Hye Kyo held the cup with both hands and nodded modestly, asking him to fill it up for her.
Qiao Mei's drinking capacity is in stark contrast to her appearance.
It has to be said that the outside world has a huge misunderstanding of her. The pure national goddess did not behave so innocently at the cocktail party.
At least, the fingers rubbing against her thighs had nothing to do with "innocence".
The atmosphere of the dinner was very lively and everyone had a great time.
And I feel relaxed from the bottom of my heart because I can have three days off during the Spring Festival.
In fact, the Spring Festival is not an important festival.
In South Korea, people pay more attention to Western festivals such as Halloween and Christmas.
Because this will make you appear more advanced, closer to the advanced world, freer, more... superior, and no longer a small person living in a corner.
It is really hard to understand the world view brought about by the distortion of inferiority and arrogance.
If he had to figure it out, Li Zhenyu was worried that his brain would collapse.
"Oppa, can I have a small drink?" IU appeared out of nowhere, put her head in front of him, and pleaded pitifully.
Smiling gently, IU also smiled happily. Seeing him smiling so happily, she would definitely agree.
But the next second, all of IU's fantasies were shattered.
"No." Li Zhenyu cruelly rejected her with the most gentle expression.
The little girl's chubby face full of collagen immediately puffed up like a bun.
The cute look made Li Zhenyu couldn't help but reach out and pinch it.
“Pfft~” IU burst out laughing, stamped her feet angrily and said: “Oppa~”
"Hahaha, our IU is so cute, so cute!"
Rubbing her head, Li Zhenyu laughed heartily.
The next day, Li Zhenyu woke up in a large bed with a Tempur-Pedic mattress.
Alone...
But obviously, there was still a lack of atmosphere between the two of them.
Communication that comes naturally is more enjoyable; some things don't need to be rushed.
After sedimentation, the fragrance will become more mellow.
Besides, Li Zhenyu is full of confidence in "New World".
…
On the day of the premiere of "New World", the entire company was in a state of tension.
Everyone is guessing what kind of performance the film will achieve on the first day. Some speculate that the number of viewers will reach 50,000, while others believe it will be 100,000.
Some people even boldly predicted that the number of moviegoers would definitely exceed 200,000.
However, no one had the courage to voice out their deepest concerns.
If the film fails at the box office, Zy+'s upward momentum will be severely hampered.
All artists will be affected, including the administrative staff and outsourcing agencies that provide services to them.
As a vested interest, everyone hopes that "New World" can achieve impressive results.
This expectation was revealed at midnight.
In the CJ Statistics Department, white-collar workers in suits come in and out.
“Have the box office statistics for Samseong-dong been released?”
"It's being counted, it will be ready soon."
"Hey, why are you so slow?"
"Box office statistics for the Busan area have been released, with 52,000 moviegoers."
"Yes." Sun Jingzhi pumped his fist vigorously, not hiding his inner joy.
On a single day, the box office in Busan alone reached 52,000.
Based on his past experience, he judged that the number of moviegoers nationwide per day should be around 200,000 . Everyone present knew very well what this number represented.
Staring at the dozen or so phones on the table, the final result will be revealed within half an hour.
If nothing goes wrong, the number of visitors will definitely exceed 200,000.
"The box office statistics for Daegu showed that the number of moviegoers was 38,000."
"Gwangju... 47,000 moviegoers."
"Daejeon...13,000 people."
All statistical results are summarized.
After simple calculations, the statistician gave the final answer.
"On the first day, 331,000 people watched the movie, and the total box office was 4.6 billion yuan."
"Aigu~ This time the bet was really right!"
Sun Jingzhi put his hands on his hips and looked at the staff present with a happy laugh.
"No one is allowed to leave. I'm going to treat everyone to a good meal tonight...steak, ah!"
"Nei, Kang Sang Mi Da, President Ni."
The employees perked up and expressed their gratitude to him.
Even though I'm exhausted, I just want to get home as soon as possible and have a good sleep.
But no one would resist at this time.
The president invites you, how can you refuse?
"Oh, I almost forgot." Sun Jingzhi said, took out his cell phone and walked out.
"Zhenyu, the box office statistics are out. Wow~ You will never guess the first day's box office..."
"400,000?" Li Zhenyu, who was on the other end of the phone, was lying on the carpet and enjoying Sun Yinzhu's yoga performance.
400,000 moviegoers was his estimate of the number of viewers on the first day.
The violent subject matter, the actor who won the Best Actor Award, all the talented cast members, plus the various scandals about him and the crew, should be able to attract more people's interest.
"Oh, you are even greedier than the chaebols." Sun Jingzhi couldn't help but complain.
400,000 moviegoers, who does he think he is, an Oscar-winning director? "How many?" Li Zhenyu was too lazy to guess, because he really didn't have time to spare.
It would be better for Sun Jingzhi to tell him the answer directly.
It was learned that the number of moviegoers on the first day was 331,000, and the total box office was 4.6 billion yuan.
Li Zhenyu didn't have any special thoughts in his heart.
4.6 billion, oh, okay, that's it...
“That’s it?” Sun Jingzhi was a little disappointed.
Just like this... just like this...
How could he have the nerve to say that? Shouldn't he be excited and let out his anger by shouting loudly?
"Sancun, I have confidence in my abilities."
Li Zhenyu's tone was so confident that it made people feel conceited.
"Hey, you... it's rare for you to be happy, can't you just cooperate a little?"
"Inside~"
"4.6 billion? Really? Aigu, Sancun, we want to beep..."
The call was rudely hung up. Li Zhenyu glanced at the screen and said speechlessly: "Hey, he hung up the phone so casually again. This person really needs to learn some manners."
Throwing the phone aside, Li Zhenyu patted Sun Yinzhu on the head and said, "Yinzhu, you have to work hard. Otherwise, you will soon be left behind by your peers and you will never see their shadows again."
"Yes, President Xi, I will definitely work harder."
For her, the most important thing she needs to do is to satisfy the president.
Whether it is "Good Day" which made IU famous, or "New World" which grossed 4.6 billion on the first day, or Sungmin who won the second place and achieved some success in her career.
All of these were created by him.
Sun Yinzhu believed that as long as she could satisfy him, she would have her own opportunities.
Becoming an overnight success seemed not to be a difficult task in his hands.
