Chapter 272 Morning Star
Xu Xiyu had no time to pay attention to what was going on with Lan Shuyun before, and now he naturally had no energy to keep an eye on her.
However, just because he has no energy, does not mean that he has nothing to do with Lan Shuyun. After half a year, he still raised some cronies within Huaqing.
Therefore, he now has many people to help him understand Lan Shuyun's affairs.
Xu Xiyu must avenge her. This is not because he is petty and insists on quarreling with people like Lan Shuyun.
It's because, even if someone like Lan Shuyun comes to make trouble in front of his face, he doesn't deal with it. Then maybe someone will follow my example in the future.
After all, besides Lan Shuyun and Lu Qinyao, he also has 10 ex-girlfriends. Who knows if a second Lan Shuyun will appear among these 10 ex-girlfriends?
Thinking of this, Xu Xiyu said: "Xinbao, find someone to help me inquire about Lan Shuyun's situation."
"Okay." Shan Xinbao nodded immediately.
After giving this order, Xu Xiyu was about to continue reading the documents when he heard Yang Xueqing next to him ask: "Hey, have you watched "The Coming of Qiming" before?"
"I've seen the first version. When I watched it, the special effects weren't even finished yet, and some scenes were still on green screen. There may be some differences in the point-and-shoot version."
"What do you think, can this film be made?"
"With an investment of 650 million, it will take about 1.9 billion in box office to get back the money. Whether it can be successful or not, I really don't know what to say." Xu Xiyu feels that it is a bit fanciful for "Qiming Arrival" to get 1.9 billion in box office. .
When Yang Xueqing heard this, she said in a worried tone: "I hope it can happen, otherwise it will be too ugly for you."
Hearing this, Xu Xiyu showed a dumbfounded expression on his face.
As mentioned before, Hua Qing invested 20% in "Qiming Arrival", which is 130 million.
This ratio is neither small nor large. Therefore, Hua Qing can only be regarded as a major joint producer.
Since Hua Qing is only a co-producer, it stands to reason that even if "Qi Ming Arrival" collapses at the box office, Xu Xiyu should not be the one who is embarrassed.
It's the director Zhao Mengwen, the screenwriter, the starring actors and the real producer who are right.
But there are some things, drama is drama here.
Before Xu Xiyu and Ke Xinying were in a relationship, they had discussed the investment structure of "Qiming Arrival" and used this matter to create public opinion on the Internet.
The entire film's budget of 650 million yuan, through Kitasato Culture's account, is a full 350 million yuan.
In other words, the producer of "The Coming of Qiming" is Beili Culture, and Xu Xiyu is the boss of Beili Culture.
Including Huaqing, with a budget of 650 million, Xu Xiyu's company alone accounts for 480 million, with an investment ratio of 73.8%, making it a proper major shareholder.
Therefore, from Hua Qing's side, Xu Xiyu is just a co-producer, but from Beili's side, Xu Xiyu is the original producer.
In fact, the current producer of "The Coming of Qiming" is named Xu Xiyu. The name of the co-producer is Qiao Shuangshuang, the boss of Huaqing Film and Television.
That's why Yang Xueqing said that if "The Coming of Qiming" failed at the box office, Xu Xiyu wouldn't be able to bear it.
Of course, the only loss is face.
Because all the money was taken out by Hu Ningtian.
Xu Xiyu never even glanced at the accounts from beginning to end. All money-related matters were left to Hu Ningtian in order to avoid some legal risks.
Anyway, Beili's major shareholder is Hu Ningtian, and I only hold 84% of his shares on behalf of him. It will be a few years before the bet between the two parties is completed.
Some accounts cannot be blamed on oneself.
Therefore, if "Qiming Arrives" loses, it just loses, it doesn't matter.
But then again, the public does not know these things, and even if colleagues know these things, they will pretend not to know.
By then, "The Coming of Light" will collapse at the box office.
Hostile colleagues, marketing accounts, and sunspots who follow Xu Xiyu, you can only think about what these people will say.
Yes, this film started before Xu Xiyu took office.
But people who are determined to attack you in public opinion still care about this?
Of course, Xu Xiyu actually doesn't mind being attacked by public opinion. But the company's employees and stock price will definitely be affected.
In the first half of the year, Huaqing's performance really didn't improve much.
Everyone is now waiting for the results of the three projects "I'm Not the God of Medicine", "Crazy" and "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop".
But people are not machines. After all, it will take some time for these three projects to go online. Moreover, no one knows what the outcome will be until the results are released.
Therefore, if "Enlightenment Arrives" does not perform well, it will indeed have some negative effects.
Thinking of this, Xu Xiyu couldn't help but sigh and said to Yang Xueqing: "In the later stages of "Hurry Up", you should keep an eye on it and speed up."
"Don't worry." Yang Xueqing nodded.
Here, the two are communicating about things.
In the large auditorium of a cinema on the other side, invited artists, Internet celebrities, self-media, as well as some moviegoers and fans of the starring actors entered the venue one after another.
The road show interactions usually last for ten to twenty minutes, and some can last for half an hour. It’s important to watch the scene. This time, because there were more public figures coming to support, the duration was slightly longer. After the movie, there will be about half an hour of interactive Q&A and game sessions.
Ten minutes later, he and Yang Xueqing arrived at the theater and sat in the middle of the middle row amid the cheers of the audience.
There were some artists sitting next to them.
There are both older and younger artists. Most of the older ones have worked with Zhao Mengwen, and the younger ones are basically friends of the leading actor.
Speaking of which, the public has preconceived notions about an artist.
Just like now, although everyone knows that Xu Xiyu is Hua Qing's boss.
But for the non-artist audience present, their biggest impression of Xu Xiyu was that he was a handsome new singer who was good at writing songs.
Therefore, when everyone saw the newcomer Xu Xiyu sitting down, the artists who had just greeted each other according to their "seniority" all stood up enthusiastically and took the initiative to chat.
The first reaction of the audience present was surprise and surprise.
Even the audience who reacted quickly were surprised for five or six seconds before they realized that it was normal for artists to take the initiative to say hello to Xu Xiyu.
However, even though everyone realized that this was normal, they still chatted excitedly in low voices as if they had discovered a new world.
"Good guy, I have been shouting Dan Dong Dan Dong for a long time. I have been shouting for half a year. Today is the first time I intuitively feel the value of Dan Dong."
"Me too."
"Holy shit, I was envious of him just by reading his news online, but now that I see him in person, damn, I'm even more envious!"
"Sure enough, it feels good to be successful when you are young. You have an identity and a good body."
"Stop talking, stop talking, I'm so jealous that my teeth are going to be broken, and it's getting darker."
"Lu Zhuan is a fan of Jimei. Is Xu Ah Dan so handsome in person? He hasn't looked so exaggerated on the screen before."
"Nonsense, there are a bunch of people surrounding him like stars looming over the moon, how about a halo bonus? If it were us, he would be the one with handsome features, not to mention he is already handsome."
As the discussion continued, about five minutes later, the theater suddenly went dark and the movie started to show.
The background of the movie "The Coming of Light" is actually quite interesting.
It is said that in 2025, Blue Star astronomers observed an object similar to a comet approaching Blue Star.
However, as time passed, when the comet approached the Blue Star, everyone discovered that it was not a comet at all, but a huge spacecraft.
This shining blue spacecraft stays on the east side of the Blue Star, always maintaining a relative distance of 10,000 kilometers from the Blue Star. At the same time, its position is always on the east side.
Because of this, along with the rotation of the Blue Star, this huge luminous spacecraft can be clearly observed with the naked eye before dawn anywhere in the world, as long as the weather permits.
It is like a blue morning star. When you see it, you know that daybreak is coming.
Based on this characteristic, the Blue Star people called this spacecraft "Morning Star".
The arrival of the "Morning Star" is known in history as the "Arrival of Qiming" event.
At first, everyone was panicked about the arrival of Qiming, because this kind of civilization that can cross the stars is really beyond the current scientific level of Blue Star.
As a result, chaos began to break out across Blue Star.
But soon, all countries began to put aside their disputes and formed a coalition government. While discussing countermeasures, they also tried to find ways to get in touch with Qiming, hoping to find out the purpose of Qiming's arrival.
The male protagonist is one of the members of the team of scientists who contacted Daystar.
After three years of trying and deciphering, the male protagonist finally got the purpose of the coming of Qiming, which was that the morning star was restoring energy through the sun.
The recovery time is 50 years.
Since three years have passed, they will arrive at Blue Star in 47 years and extract the core of Blue Star as the core energy source for the next voyage of "Morning Star".
The Blue Star whose core has been extracted will inevitably fall apart, and humans, including all creatures on the Blue Star, will be unable to survive.
Fight, run, talk, or leave to die?
Blue Star only has 47 years to face this crisis.
To be honest, that's the background.
Regardless of whether it's unscientific or not, at least in Xu Xiyu's opinion, it's still somewhat innovative. Moreover, in this doomsday context, there are many stories that can be unearthed.
Once the filming is completed, it is really possible to become a series of IP, and it will not be a problem to make three or four movies in a row.
But Lao Zhao is a great person after all.
He is so awesome.
I was stunned that among the countless stories that could be mined, I chose a story line that makes people least able to complain.
