Chapter 220 The fruit is a little sweet
The content of the contract between Zhou Xingxing and Huayi is very simple.
The box office of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" exceeded 500 million yuan, and Stephen Chow was able to get an additional 80 million yuan.
The contract was negotiated on New Year's Eve.
Zhou Xingxing’s side sent the agreement to Huayi.
Huayi responded on the same day.
I agree to the terms of the agreement, but the company is on holiday during my attendance period, so there is no way to sign the paper contract. I will do it after the holiday.
Zhou Xingxing's side expressed understanding and trust and agreed to the request.
afterwards.
During the release of the movie, in order to promote the movie, Stephen Chow not only participated in the entire promotion of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", but was also used as a target by Teacher Liu for half a month. In the end, he had a media symposium with Jack Ma to save the box office of the movie.
just.
At this moment.
It is obvious that the Wang brothers do not want to pay this fund worth 80 million.
Eighty million.
It’s higher than the total profit of many movies.
Just give it away casually?
commit a sin!
Xiao Wang looked at the electronic version on the screen, his tone becoming more and more excited: "Brother, did your contract leave any traces to Zhou Xingxing?"
The Great King spread his hands in front of the screen and said, "No, after the New Year's Eve incident, Zhou Xingxing has not urged us to do anything. Besides, the two parties only communicated via emails, and even the contract was issued afterwards..."
After saying this, an uncontrollable smile spread across his face.
What contract.
Even something that has not been signed can be called a contract.
That's a blank sheet of paper!
The two brothers smiled at each other and recalled their experiences over the past three months.
"Nineteen Forty-Two" was a flop.
Stock prices plunged.
Not only did he fail to obtain the extension key for "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", he also had a grudge against Han Sanping.
But all the unpleasant things have become a thing of the past in front of the 80 million people at this moment.
……
Fragrant city.
The crew of "Police Story".
After seeing off Wu Bai, the crew returned to their daily filming.
Zhou Mo doesn't have many tasks every day. In addition to handling some company business remotely every day, he will also call the young lady every now and then.
"Zhou Mo, let me tell you, when I saw Brother Jingfei a few days ago, he had gained a lot of weight, and even his face was swollen. As a result, the director forced him to lose weight. In one week, he lost at least five pounds..."
Zhou Mo casually threw the disposable chopsticks into the trash can.
"What about you? Have you been eating secretly these days? Some people, don't forget that I said before I went to the crew that my weight fluctuations must be controlled within three kilograms."
Da Tiantian hummed twice on the other end of the phone.
"Whether you have gained weight or not, you can just test it yourself and find out."
Zhou Mo sighed.
"It's beyond my reach."
Da Tiantian: ...
Forget it.
got used to.
"By the way, the director told me that the equipment and scenes of Victory are still there, and the crew is in good shape. It is estimated that the filming will be completed by mid-April at the latest. I guess I will be there by then."
Zhou Mo thought about it and decided that there was still enough time.
"Has Xiaoming gone to the crew?"
"Already here." Da Tiantian smiled happily: "He came here with Sister Xun. They just came back from Seattle. Brother Xiaoming told me that he didn't even have time to go back to the company and came directly to the crew. He didn't even see his girlfriend. Sister Xun exposed him and said that when he was in Seattle, Brother Xiaoming called his girlfriend every day without fail."
Zhou Mo smiled.
It has to be Huang Xiaoming.
Even if you take credit or complain, it won't make people feel disgusted.
But regardless of anything else, at least Huang Xiaoming has indeed fulfilled the promise he made during this period.
He doesn't appear in the market frequently to support his girlfriend.
Maintained my popularity among the public during this period.
Zhou Mo thought about it.
Suddenly I felt that I had been a little unkind to Huang Xiaoming during this period and should not have been too harsh on him.
Although a tool.
But not a slave.
How come even the channels for the other party to show and express love to their lover in public are blocked?
We should still leave some space for others.
After thinking about it, he said to Da Tiantian.
"Tiantian, I've thought about it. I've really asked too many things of Xiaoming recently. It's really embarrassing for him not to show his affection in public.
Well, can you help me inform Xiaoming? Zhao Yanzi has just started promoting her movie "Youth" during this period, right? Let him go there, get in touch with Zhao Yanzi, and promote "Seattle" at the same time."
Da Tiantian listened to it.
He didn't speak for a long time.
She was really shocked at how outrageous Zhou Mo's words were.
This is too shameless.
After a long while, Da Tiantian slowly uttered a sentence: "Zhou Mo, you are too cruel. You just said that it is too inhumane not to let Brother Xiaoming show his affection, and then you let him go to Megatron. Listen to what you said, is it human language?"
Zhou Mo smiled: "Tiantian, I am supporting Xiaoming to bravely express his love. He will thank me."
Da Tiantian: ...
She knew that Zhou Mo liked to "persecute" Huang Xiaoming.
But Zhou Mo’s previous means of “persecution” of Huang Xiaoming were limited, mostly superficial jokes.
Huang Xiaoming was also happy to do so, and used this opportunity to get closer to Zhou Mo.
There is an invisible tacit understanding between the two.
Da Tiantian also likes this kind of small show, and sometimes even drags Liu Yifei to watch it together.
But this time, Da Tiantian really felt that this wave of operations was a bit exaggerated.
"Zhou Mo, are you sure there will be no problem doing this?"
"I think you don't understand at all."
Zhou Mo expressed his concern about Da Tiantian's IQ: "Tiantian, the entire entertainment industry knows who Xiaoming's goddess is, but the entire entertainment industry also knows that Xiaoming's goddess doesn't like Xiaoming. And since Xiaoming has a girlfriend, he can't support the goddess bravely, otherwise his girlfriend will make trouble for him.
Now, I am doing this to give Xiaoming a chance to meet his goddess openly... in the name of movie promotion, and his girlfriend can't say anything.
Believe it or not, after hearing this news, Xiaoming will not only not think there is a problem, but will also thank the two of us for giving him a helping hand."
Da Tiantian always feels that this theory seems very logical, but in fact there must be problems.
But she couldn't find it.
After thinking for a moment, he hesitated: "Are you sure you want me to say this to Brother Xiaoming? Are you sure this doesn't mean you want me to take the blame?" Zhou Mo raised his eyebrows.
After not seeing her for half a month, this girl has become a little smarter.
It seems that filming does have an impact on people.
It just has little impact.
He just asked back: "Don't you want to be the first to know? Don't you want to see Xiaoming's first reaction when he hears this?"
After saying this, he calmly waited for a response.
For a long time.
On the other end of the phone.
Da Tiantian uttered a word with difficulty.
"think."
So angry.
For a spectator, there is a melon to eat, but he cannot eat it because of his own problems. There is no greater loss in the world than this.
But Da Tiantian felt a little unwilling.
We're already filming a legal drama, but why am I always being controlled by this guy?
She wanted to get back at him.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "What if your prediction is wrong? Brother Xiaoming didn't thank us after hearing the news."
Zhou Mo smiled slightly.
I am not afraid of you thinking, I am afraid of you not thinking.
"What do you want?"
"Let's make a bet." Da Tiantian always felt that Huang Xiaoming would not go to that extent.
Just a promotion.
Even Megatron wouldn't make Huang Xiaoming so happy.
After all, he is worth over 100 million.
impossible.
It is absolutely impossible.
"No problem, what about the bet?"
"If I win, I'll prepare clothes for you this time, and you ask me to take a set of photos with you!" Da Tiantian said her long-planned plan.
She read a youth romance novel some time ago.
The hero in the novel is an all-around genius with advanced computer skills who can even be his own CEO.
The most important thing is that the male lead is very handsome.
It can just replace Zhou Mo's appearance.
The only problem was that Zhou Mo had never worn those handsome uniforms.
It's such a pity.
In order to prevent Zhou Mo from misunderstanding, Da Tiantian explained it to him again.
Zhou Mo was a little curious.
"What novel has you become so obsessed with?"
"I even bought the adaptation rights for the novel Love O2O. When the time is right in the future, I will directly make this novel into a TV series."
hiss--
Zhou Mo took a breath of cold air.
No wonder he felt a sense of familiarity when he listened to Da Tiantian’s story, it turned out to be Sister Shuangzi’s masterpiece.
But if you like it, just like it.
"What if I win?" Zhou Mo said leisurely.
Da Tiantian bit her lip and said, "What do you think we should do?"
"Not that great? I just want to eat sweet fruit. Do you agree?"
Da Tiantian’s face turned red.
She knew that these were the requirements.
But for Zhou Mo's photo, she tried her best.
……
The crew of "Police Story".
Old Wu was seriously injured and unconscious and was admitted to the hospital.
Zhong Wen received the news and rushed to the hospital to meet Xiao Wu and his mother.
and two police officers who were in charge of the matter.
Zhong Wen learned what had happened from the police officer.
The police have basically confirmed that Old Wu committed suicide by jumping off a building.
Because of the "suicide note" that Old Wu sent to his wife, there is no doubt about this matter.
As for the reason——
Because Old Wu lost control of his mentality and could not bear the pressure of life, he chose to jump off the building out of desperation.
"My father will never jump off the building. He told me that she will definitely come home." Xiao Wu and his wife cried and explained the situation to Zhong Wen.
Old Wu was beaten for collecting a debt. After sending his son home, he went back alone just to get an explanation.
It was completely different from what the police said, that he chose to jump off the building because of mental problems.
Moreover, in the "suicide note" that Old Wu sent to his wife on his mobile phone, there were many words that Old Wu never used in his daily conversations or text messages.
Zhong Wen patted Xiao Wu's head.
Based on his contact with Lao Wu during this period, he also knows that the other party is a strong person who is full of hope for life.
It is absolutely impossible to commit suicide because of a beating.
His intuition told him that there were many strange things about this matter.
"No matter what, I will get to the bottom of this matter." He said firmly.
This is a police officer's promise to his child.
Zhong Wen returned to the bureau, hoping to learn relevant information about the case.
All materials, including injury assessment, have been sealed.
Even the surveillance was not available at any time period due to maintenance and construction.
The only thing that could be told to Zhong Wen was that there was no problem with the case, and Zhong Wen was allowed to do what he was supposed to do, and there was no possibility of him being beaten.
"I told you there is no surveillance, so how far are you going to go to make trouble?" The police officer pushed Zhong Wen and told him to get out.
He has always been very disgusted with Zhong Wen and his gang of guys from the "North".
Get involved in their work.
“Correct” their behavior.
"Affect" their reputation.
"Get out of here, you old bastard!"
Just as his palm touched Zhong Wen's shoulder, the police officer was controlled by Zhong Wen with his backhand.
