Chapter 222
This is Li luoran's first peaceful speech with Lu Shaochen after she found out that Lu Shaochen and Jin Xintong had an affair outside their marriage.
In the past, after Li luoran deliberately indifferent and excluded Lu Shaochen, he was always in a bad mood. Today, after opening his heart to him, he had a long lost warmth in his heart.
She is still greedy for this beauty.
Liluoran thought that if she could keep calm with Lu Shaochen all the time, she might be in a good mood all the time.
But she can't
She can never deceive herself and others when she knows that Lu Shaochen has an extramarital affair. She is always tender to him
~~
Liluoran slept soundly tonight.
The next day, Li luoran stayed at home all day, nervously waiting for a platform to announce today's box office results.
340 million——
Seeing this data, Li luoran couldn't even believe his eyes.
When she was about to call Qin Weijie for confirmation, Qin Weijie called on his own initiative,
"Ranran, Mr. Wang just sent a message to let me tell you that the box office exceeded 300 million today. He also said that he expected it to be higher tomorrow. I hope you can have a good sleep."
Li luoran concluded that the data released by the platform was correct.
When we look at the "imperial concubine of prosperous times" starring Bai Qingwan, the box office has fallen from more than 200 million yesterday to just over 100 million.
As Wang Zimo expected, on the third day, the box office of "unparalleled demon Queen" continued to soar, even soaring to an amazing 500 million, while "imperial concubine of prosperous times" plummeted to less than 10 million.
The following week, the fire of "matchless demon Queen" continued, causing a series of startling tsunamis in the film and television industry, while "imperial concubine of the prosperous age" was ignored and gradually faded out of people's sight.
Li luoran specially went to see one of the most authoritative film and television scoring platforms in China. The average score of "unparalleled demon Queen" was 9. 2 points, the same as the highest rated film masterpiece in recent ten years, while the premiere day of "imperial concubine of prosperous times" was also raised by 8. 3 points. A few days later, with the scores of more and more fans, it was gradually pulled down to 7. 6 points
To be fair, around the world, it can reach 7. A commercial film with a score of 5 is excellent.
"Imperial concubine" is really a rare work.
Bai Qingwan really did well.
However, no matter how good things are, they are afraid to be compared with better ones.
If "imperial concubine of the prosperous age" did not encounter "matchless demon Queen" in the same period, it will become the box office champion of this period.
The most tragic thing in the film industry is that a good work encountered a better work in the same period. What's more tragic is that the latter is the same subject matter and type as it, which doomed the two works to fight like two people fighting for life and death
As Jiang Xiaojing said——
If the audience has only seen "imperial concubine of prosperous times", they will definitely praise the film and Bai Qingwan's performance.
However, after watching "matchless after the demon", the audience will immediately find that Li luoran's performance of crying when it's time to cry, laughing when it's time to laugh, real and without affectation is called wholehearted investment. In contrast, they will find that Bai Qingwan's acting method is too fake and exaggerated
It is precisely because of this that the box office of "unparalleled demon Queen" continues to burst, while "prosperous imperial concubine" is gradually ignored.
It seems that two weeks have passed in a twinkling of an eye.
The total domestic box office of "matchless demon Queen" exceeded 4 billion, a record high in three years. There were only 700 million in "imperial concubine of prosperous times", of which more than 600 million came from the first three days of release.
In just two weeks, the name "Lilo dye" has been heard in the streets. The name can be seen everywhere in entertainment news. Posters with Lilo dye's head can be seen almost everywhere.
When Li luoran went out, reporters often came out from unknown places and asked her a variety of questions;
On more than one occasion, she was surrounded by excited fans and got away with signing in.
As early as when filming "unparalleled demon Queen", Qin Weijie told her more than once that she would become famous. She thought Qin Weijie was mostly joking, but she didn't expect it to come true.
Like most girls, Li luoran once dreamed of becoming a dazzling star one day.
However, she knew it was just her dream, so she never dared to ask for it.
Therefore, even Li luoran was mostly chased by wangzimo when she took over the play of "matchless after the demon". In the process of filming, she also took an ordinary heart, only paid attention to the process and didn't think about the result.
Li luoran was delighted, excited, nervous and scared by her popularity with a lightning speed
At the same time, Bai Qingwan was completely pushed to the opposite of Li luoran——
In fact, "imperial concubine of the prosperous age" has created 700 million box office, which can completely make Bai Qingwan angry. However, because she lost the bet with Li luoran, the media are full of calls for her to fulfill her promise and quit the entertainment industry forever
Bai Qingwan remained silent and did not make a public statement.
~~
"Weaving gold room".
The only six-star hotel in Jiangcheng.
The platinum third floor of the hotel has been covered.
Because the celebration ceremony of the crew of "matchless demon Queen" is held here tonight.
In order to make the whole crew communicate more happily, no non crew members are allowed to participate in the dinner. Ten security guards are closely guarded at the six gates to prevent reporters with sneak shooting equipment from sneaking in.
This was a victory for the whole crew. At the ceremony, wangzimo gave everyone a huge bonus. The atmosphere was intoxicated.
Li luoran also became the protagonist tonight without surprise. Everyone raised their glasses to her.
In fact, Shu Xinshuang, who is both the most popular star and the "first beauty of the Millennium", was the focus of everyone's attention at every gathering of the crew in the past.
Tonight, for the first time, people's attention turned to Lilo ran.
Shu Xinshuang, like before, follows Li luoran wherever she goes.
When she and Li luoran were standing by the fountain chatting, Feng qianzhen came over and joked, "goddess Shu, interview you. You are the first goddess in the whole country. Now Li luoran's popularity is soaring wildly, and there is a great momentum to catch up with you. Do you have a sense of crisis?"
"Sense of crisis..." Shu Xinshuang smiled and winked at Li luoran,
"If Mr. Feng doesn't mention it now, I really don't realize that God, there are reports about Ranran all over the world these days. I don't feel what you call a 'sense of crisis'. On the contrary, I feel quite a sense of achievement."
The wind is shallow, the eyebrows are raised, and the blue eyes are full of charm,
"Tut, sense of achievement? How to say?"
Shu Xinshuang pulled his lips gracefully, "just feel that his efforts are not wasted, understand?"
The wind said, "I don't understand!"
Shu Xinshuang proudly raised his beautiful face, "of course you don't understand. As long as you have a beautiful face, your IQ is as low as negligible. It's not surprising that you don't understand the words of smart people."
Shallow wind, "..."
Shu Xinshuang stopped looking at her and turned his eyes to Li luoran. "Ranran, have you ever heard of a saying that pigs can fly as long as they stand at the air outlet? I think this sentence is a wise saying. Otherwise, how can such a beautiful stupid pig like wind shallow fly so high?"
"Poof ~"
All the saliva that liluoran just drank into his mouth was sprayed into the pool.
The wind was shallow and his evil face was full of displeasure.
"Ranran, in order not to lower our IQ, we'd better stay away from the mentally retarded, right?" Shu Xinshuang looks at Li luoran and pulls Li luoran to the other end of the pool.
The wind looked at their backs for a moment.
Finally, there was a look of "I understand" in the coquettish blue eyes.
Of course, he knows that Shu Xinshuang will never have a sense of crisis because of liluoran's popularity, because Feng qianxuan found that since liluoran became popular, Shu Xinshuang has not only silently supported liluoran, but also secretly helped liluoran accumulate popularity in ways that are difficult to be found by others
The reason why Feng Qianhe asked clearly is that he thought Shu Xinshuang's behavior was very strange——
In fact, wangzimo decided to let another female star play female No. 2. Wangzimo had no intention of inviting Shu Xinshuang, but Shu Xinshuang took the initiative to join.
Shu Xinshuang, a superstar, not only committed himself to playing for Li luoran and doing his best as Li luoran's makeup artist and acting guidance, but also spared no effort to praise her after Li luoran became popular.
It doesn't make sense
Which female star wants to see other female stars more popular than herself?!
There is only one possibility, as he guessed before——
Shu Xinshuang is absolutely true love to Li luoran!
The smile of Li shuran across the pool means that the water is clear and strange, and the water is happy
~~
Around 10 pm, wangzimo announced the end of the celebration.
When Qin Weijie and Li luoran were walking outside the door, Qin Weijie asked her, "Ranran, do you feel anything different now?"
Liluoran smiled. "It's just more trouble than before."
Qin Weijie with an ignorant face said, "trouble?"
"Yes, please..."
Liluoran shrugged,
"I once had a famous dream, but now my dream has come true, but I find that it has not brought any happiness to my life. My photos can be seen everywhere in the street, and many people know my name, but so what? I can't walk around the street normally as before. I lose my freedom. As long as I leave my house, I have to wear a mask for fear of being seen. Alas ... sister Qin, I don't think it's good to be popular. I just think I've lost more than I've lost. "
"..." Qin Weijie stared at Li luoran like an alien and lost his mind for five seconds.
Finally, I sighed a long sigh,
"Ranran, you are really different from them."
They?
Who?
Li luoran looked puzzled.
Qin Weijie didn't explain any more. He dyed Lilo lightly, and his voice was gentle,
"Let's go!"
What Qin Weijie didn't say was——
Having been in this circle for more than ten years, she has seen countless stars. Too many stars were quite approachable before they became famous. Once they became popular, they would forget themselves, look down on others, be extravagant and rotten
There are really few girls like Li luoran who don't forget her original heart.
Maybe that's why you're so happy with her, sir?
The two were walking, and wangzimo blocked their way,
"Liluoran, talk to you alone."
Qin Weijie stepped aside with interest.
Wangzimo opened his thin lips, "after deducting all the expenses such as cinema division, crew expenses and early-stage investment, so far, the net profit of this film is more than 1 billion and 10 million. According to the agreement of our contract, half of it will be given to you. When you have time, we'll settle it."
Half of one billion ten million——
Five hundred and five million
My God?
Li luoran, whose legs were so weak by this amazing number, almost knelt in front of wangzimo on the spot.
"Ha ha ~"
She tried to calm down,
"Mr. Wang, in fact, I'm just participating in the performance in this play. Compared with what you pay, it's your credit to write the script, arrange the shooting and arrange the release. You share so much with me. I really can't afford it."
"Oh?"
Although wangzimo was silent, if you look carefully, you will find a trace of shock looming in his beautiful aqua green eyes.
Liluo ran smiled, "why don't you do this? You don't have to count the contract. Just give me some symbolic pay like other actors."
She is not insatiable.
Although wangzimo is the male leader in this play, this is a play focusing on the female leader. In the final analysis, even the male leader "master Mo" is also playing for her.
This is the reason why Lilo ran became popular after the release of "matchless demon Queen".
She knew that Mr. Wang wrote such a script entirely to highlight her. She was only praised by Mr. Wang. She was very satisfied.
Her request is very favorable to Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang should agree very simply, right?
However, why did wangzimo stare at her for a moment and fall into silence?
"Um ~"
After a while, a faint syllable came out between wangzimo's moist jade lips,
"Although what you said is very tempting to me, I am a principled person. I'd better follow the contract. You and I are not allowed to breach the contract or refuse."
Li luoran, "..."
Who in the circle sent rumors that Mr. jinjinwang was very harsh on his artists and wanted to drain every drop of oil and water from them?
Mr. Wang is very generous, okay?!
Liluoran didn't know what to say.
Wang Zimo, standing under the crystal lamp, looked at her as quietly as possible,
"The release period of" demon Queen "is not over yet. In addition, there will be income from selling copyright, and then I will share it equally with you. In addition, because the market response of" demon Queen "is good, you are ready to make a sequel."
"OK." Li luoran doesn't object. Now she is an artist under wangzimo, and it's his duty to listen to wangzimo's arrangement.
Wang Zimo said, "by the way, there will be a biennial multi-dimensional film queen selection in three months. I will try my best to help you win the title of 'film queen'."
Multidimensional movie queen?
That's the highest Gold Award in Asia, the dream pursued by countless female stars all their lives!
Although Li luoran didn't hold a glimmer of hope, she smiled on the surface because she didn't want to disobey wangzimo's kindness. "Thank you, Mr. Wang."
Wangzimo didn't return, so she stared at her silently.
The light here is bright, and wangzimo is only one step away from her. He slightly lowers his head half higher than Li luoran, and the breath exhaled from his nose blows the hair on Li luoran's forehead like the spring breeze.
But her illusion?
At this moment, Li luoran suddenly felt that Wang Zimo's eyes were so beautiful and gentle.
In a trance, liluoran couldn't help thinking of the picture of her snuggling with him in wangzimo's wallet, the picture of him pressing her under him that night, and his charming eyes and words that night
At the moment, she clearly opened enough distance with wangzimo, but liluoran inexplicably felt that she was too close to him. She hurriedly said goodbye and turned and left.
"Ran Ran."
Behind him came the magnetic voice of wangzimo.
Liluoran suddenly stopped.
Suddenly remembered that the former wangzimo either called her by her name or called her "Miss Li". This was the first time he called her "Ranran"
That's normal.
That's what people call her.
However, why did she feel his special warmth and intimacy when this title was called out in wangzimo's mouth?
Is it her illusion again?
A warmth came from my shoulder.
It was wangzimo's big hand that gently put it on her shoulder.
The handsome man, with his green eyes, looked at her thin figure, "you are very different. I think I understand why Lu Shaochen is so kind to you."
Why did wangzimo say she was different?
What's different about her?
And Lu Shaochen
What is the relationship between wangzimo and Lu Shaochen?
Li luoran had countless questions in her heart, but now she just wanted to open the distance from wangzimo as soon as possible. She only faintly replied "thank you", without looking back, and accelerated her steps to Qin Weijie.
~~
Li luoran and Qin Weijie walked out of the banquet hall arm in arm.
Wangzimo always stood where he was. People came and went around him. Someone always greeted him with a smile, but he felt inexplicably lonely.
Yeah.
Wangzimo thought he would never be alone again if he found her.
Why do I meet her every day after I pull her to the crew and shoot the opposite play with her close every day? Once she leaves, I feel more lonely and lonely?
"When the hell are you going to hide it from her?"
With a clear voice, Shu Xinshuang came to his right hand.
Wangzi Mo didn't return, but his eyes were dark.
Shu Xinshuang stood side by side with him, looking up at the position he looked at,
"I know you are in pain. I know that even I, your best friend, can't share a trace of pain for you. In this world, she is the only one who can heal the wound in your heart
"Zimo, tell her what happened to you and her photos, tell her why you were so abnormal that night, and tell her the truth. It's also a relief for yourself, isn't it?"
Liberation?
Wangzimo silently digested this cruel word in his heart.
Since it is impossible to put it down, where can we get relief?
Standing under the bright crystal lamp, wangzimo was silent for a long time. Finally, his eyes were wet red and looked at Shu Xinshuang,
"When you mention her, you always deliberately act very calm and relaxed. It seems that this is just a matter between me and her. It seems that you don't care at all. You're just deceiving yourself and others."
Shu Xinshuang shrugged and covered up his heartache with meaningless.
Wangzimo patted her on the shoulder, "Xinshuang, I know that you care about her as much as I do, and you miss her very much. Otherwise, why are you so good to her?"
