The play was originally scheduled to be completed in six months, but due to high efficiency, it was compressed into three months.
When the last scene was finished, Director Song Xiaotie was a little dazed. This is a movie about his grandmother, and he wanted to polish it slowly, not asking for a quick finish, but only for high quality.
But in fact, this drama was not only completed quickly, but also of exceptionally high quality. During the filming, Song Xiaotie tried his best to find faults with Jiang Jiang, but Jiang Jiang was also very capable and did not let him find any.
Looking at Jiang Jiang hugging several other actors on the stage, the director smiled from the bottom of his heart.
Jiang Jiang's future is definitely bright, and it is his honor to let Jiang Jiang film this movie when she is not yet famous.
Song Xiaotie even thought, maybe this play would become Jiang Jiang's masterpiece?
Song Xiaotie's heart was burning with excitement when he thought that Jiang Jiang would become famous through his plays.
It is the dream of many directors to make outstanding actors famous! And Jiang Jiang is better than any other actor he has ever seen!
He was glad that Jiang Jiang chose the path of an actor, otherwise, the entertainment industry would have really missed a gem.
But Song Xiaotie's plan still failed.
When Jiang Jiang returned to school after filming, the premiere of the movie "Eternal Life" happened to be held. Jiang Jiang only had time to finish one exam before he hurriedly flew to another city to attend the premiere.
This was Jiang Jiang's first time seeing a finished film, and also his first time seeing himself on the big screen.
The feeling is very strange, but very good.
Jiang Jiang has watched many movies and is familiar with the plots in movies. When she saw the full movie of "Eternal Life", she knew that this movie would have a good box office.
even……
Jiang Jiang licked his lips. The box office would even be better than anyone expected.
The box office performance after the movie was officially released confirmed Jiang Jiang's guess.
On the first day of the movie’s release, the box office exceeded 100 million.
In the early stage, there was a lot of discussion about this movie among the public. Coupled with the traffic support of Wen Di and the rising star Jiang Jiang, it was not surprising that the movie had such a good box office at the premiere.
The subsequent healthy development is the real guarantee for the continuous growth of movie box office.
After a movie is released, word of mouth is absolutely the most important.
If a movie is of high quality and has a good reputation, so good that people around are talking about it, then even if some people don't watch it, the discussions around them will urge them to watch it.
After those people have watched it and thought it was good, they start talking about it louder and then bring other people to watch it, thus creating a virtuous cycle.
Movies rely on traffic at the beginning, but what really keeps people is the quality of the movie.
This is the case with "Eternal Life".
The second day after the movie was released was Friday, and many people would choose to watch a movie after get off work to start a happy weekend. The most popular movie recently was "Life and Death". So, soon someone found that the movie ticket was not available because the theater was full!
Only then did everyone realize how popular the movie "Only Life" was.
Netizen 1: There are no tickets! I have visited several theaters and they are all full! "Only Life" is too popular!
Netizen 2: Someone who just watched the movie for the third time said that he could watch it three or five more times!
Netizen 3: The movie is really good, whether it is the script or the actors' acting skills. They are all very good and worth watching!
Netizen 4: The best movie of the year in my mind. The concept of the movie is so good that it made me cry. Everyone has a sensitive adolescence, using piercing thorns to carefully hide their fragile hearts. We are not rebellious, we just want more attention and love.
Netizen 5: This movie is Wen Di's transformation, and his performance did not disappoint. Of course, the most amazing thing is Jiang Jiang, she brought Jiang Sheng to life.
Netizen 6: I became a fan of Jiang Jiang because of this movie. The girl is not only good at studying, but also has great acting skills! Anyway, I will be a fan of the girl for both her studies and career from now on!
Netizen 7: I finally know why Jiang Jiang is still in the entertainment industry when his performance is so good. With such talent, it would be a loss for the entertainment industry if he doesn’t join the industry.
…
The promotion of the movie didn’t end until the Chinese New Year.
In the past month, the box office of "Eternal Life" has reached 1.2 billion, which is definitely a milestone for youth films.
During this period, Jiang Jiang was busy promoting movies, reviewing and taking exams. Fortunately, he returned home at the end of the year.
The people who came to pick up Jiang Jiang were the entire Jiang family.
The whole family was very excited to see Jiang Jiang, not only because of his fame, but also because they hadn't seen Jiang Jiang for a long time and everyone missed him very much.
Jiang's mother's eyes were red when she saw Jiang Jiang. Jiang Jiang had lost weight. The continuous movie promotions and final exams had drained all the fat out of her body, leaving only lean muscles.
Fortunately, Jiang Jiang is still in good spirits.
Jiang Jiang saw that Jiang's mother's eyes were red, and he quickly went over to hug her. "I knew that Mom missed me so much, no wonder she sneezed several times in the car just now!"
After hearing Jiang Jiang's naughty words, Jiang's mother couldn't help but want to slap her, but in the end she couldn't bear to do it and just touched Jiang Jiang's back again and again.
"How come you are so thin? Is filming very tiring? When I saw you promoting the movie, you were running around in different places every day, and you also had to take exams. Have you not been eating well or sleeping well during this period?"
Jiang's mother's tone was both complaining and distressed.
Jiang Jiang pouted, "That's not the case. I just want to go home and eat the food my mom cooked, especially the braised chicken and sweet and sour spareribs. I think about them even in my dreams. How can I eat the food outside?"
Jiang's mother was reluctant to slap him now, and said softly, "Is your mouth open? I've never seen you so talkative before."
Jiang Jiang quickly smiled ingratiatingly.
Father Jiang couldn't help but speak up: "Let's go back. Your mother went to the market early. She has prepared all the dishes you want to eat!"
The twins nodded as well.
The family of five drove home chatting and laughing.
On the way, the family chatted a lot. Jiang Jiang talked about how she filmed the drama, what she filmed, and how she promoted it. Other members of the Jiang family also expressed their feelings and how their neighbors and guests envied Jiang Jiang after she became famous.
"I heard that you will be coming back today, and many people asked for your autograph and to take photos with you!" said Father Jiang proudly.
Jiang's father was the first person to support Jiang Jiang's filming, so he was very proud of Jiang Jiang's current achievements. He thought, if it weren't for his decision, the world would have lost a talented actor!
The two twins were a little shy when they first saw Jiang Jiang, but now they have opened up and are calling her "big sister".
"My classmates also asked me to bring them autographed photos! Big sister, you have to sign for me when you go back. I promised you that!"
"Yes, yes, I have that too! Others don't have to sign, but my class teacher's must sign. She's your biggest fan! I see you're her screen saver on her phone!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jiang immediately agreed with a smile.
The family arrived at the residential complex, and as soon as they got off the car, someone came to greet them and the family was stopped at the stairs.
"The big star is back! As expected of a big star, this look and dress is really elegant!"
"I've said it before, Jiang Jiang is not a normal person, he will become a phoenix sooner or later! Well, I'm not good at talking, anyway, I've already discovered that Jiang Jiang is extraordinary, he will definitely have a bright future!"
"Yes, yes. Jiang Jiang must be making a lot of money from filming movies, right? Boss Jiang and his wife are so lucky to have such a promising daughter!"
…
Most of the people who came to watch were elderly people. They dared to speak and ask questions, which made Jiang Jiang's family feel a little embarrassed.
Father Jiang pushed the crowd aside and said, "It is our blessing that our child has grown up on his own! He just came back from the bus and is tired. We will go home first. I will invite everyone to visit my home later!"
The neighbors were not unreasonable people, and after hearing what Jiang's father said, they had no choice but to make way for the family to go upstairs.
But the discussion did not stop there.
The family entered the house and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Although Jiang's father and mother liked such flattering words, they wanted their daughter, who had been traveling a long way, to go home and rest first.
The family prepared the meal in a lively and noisy manner and then sat on the table.
Jiang Jiang hadn't seen anyone in the group for nearly half a year. Now at the dinner table, everyone was eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was particularly warm.
After they had enough wine and food, Jiang Jiang said, "Let's bring grandpa and grandma over to spend the New Year together this year."
Jiang Jiang's words brought silence to the table, and the remaining four people all looked at Jiang Jiang in surprise.
Jiang Jiang lowered his head and smiled softly, then raised his eyes and looked at his father and mother in front of him: "Grandpa and grandma are old, and I guess you are worried about leaving them in their hometown. Why don't you just take them here? If you are not used to it, I will buy a house in the community with my money and let them live there."
Jiang Jiang has a bad relationship with Grandma Jiang, but Grandpa Jiang is good to Jiang Jiang. Jiang Jiang doesn't want to let the old man be without anyone to take care of him in his later years.
Besides, she is rich and famous now, so even if Grandma Jiang dislikes her, she can't go against her. Even if Grandma Jiang is not clear-headed and goes against Jiang Jiang, not to mention Jiang's mother, even Jiang's father can't make Grandma Jiang happy.
This home has long been Jiang Jiang's home, and everyone in the family is on her side.
As soon as Jiang Jiang finished speaking, his father suddenly covered his eyes with one hand and uttered a sob: "Dad is useless. I made you suffer in the past."
Thinking of Jiang Jiang's past experiences, Jiang's father felt that he had let Jiang Jiang down. Why was he so foolish before? No matter how bad Jiang Jiang was, she was still his daughter! Why did they treat Jiang Jiang like that?
Now that his daughter has become successful and makes money, her first priority is to consider the elders. Father Jiang feels both sad and relieved.
Jiang Jiang pulled his father's sleeve and said, "Dad, don't say that. You have done a great job raising me and my brothers."
Jiang Jiang once swore that he would never be soft-hearted towards Jiang's father and Jiang's mother again, but in the end, blood ties were there, and Jiang's father and Jiang's mother had changed completely.
She knew that Father Jiang wanted to take Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang in. After all, they were his biological parents, and no matter how cruel he was, he couldn't let them go.
Mother Jiang knew how Father Jiang felt right now. She looked at Jiang Jiang with complicated eyes. Her daughter had really grown up, and she began to give back to these incompetent parents.
After this was settled, Jiang's father drove the twins back to his hometown the next day to pick up Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang, leaving Jiang Jiang and Mother Jiang at home to prepare for the New Year.
On the afternoon of the third day, when Jiang Jiang and his mother were preparing New Year's Eve dinner in the kitchen, there was a knock on the door.
"We're back! Open the door!" Jiang Zifei's voice was so loud that even Jiang Jiang in the kitchen felt annoyed.
Jiang Jiang put down the work in his hands, wiped his hands, and ran to open the door. Jiang's mother followed closely behind him. No matter how bad the relationship between Jiang's mother and Grandma Jiang was, she had to go to the door to greet them at this time.
As soon as the door opened, the twins rushed in carrying things.
"It's so cold, but it's still warm inside the air conditioner! Sister, Mom, we're back!"
"I told you, if Big Sister is at home, Mom will definitely turn on the air conditioner! Big Sister, Mom!"
Hearing this, Jiang Jiang touched the twins' heads and then looked back.
Following the twins were Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang. Grandma Jiang was walking in front, and when she saw Jiang Jiang, she looked a little awkward and didn't say anything.
Jiang Jiang didn't care about her attitude. He narrowed his eyes and called out crisply, "Grandma, Grandpa!"
