Chapter 184 Let me blow the wind [asking for a monthly ticket]
"No need, Aunt Deng, this is really too disturbing. I'll celebrate the New Year alone. I'm used to it, it's okay."
"What do you say to bother me? Our family is just three people, and there are no outsiders. You come to celebrate the New Year, and our family is still a little lively. Xu Wenruo and Uncle Xu stay in the study all day. I don't even have a chat. I'm listening to my aunt, you'll be here for the New Year this year."
After Ms. Deng Xinyu's repeated invitations, Qi Yue could not refuse her kindness and had to promise her to stay here for the New Year. However, Xu Wenruo and Qi Yue did not expect that Ms. Deng Xinyu would speak again.
"Okay, Xiao Qi, you don't have to go back today. I'll go clean up the guest room and you can stay here tonight."
"Thank you...Aunt Deng."
Xu Wenruo and Qi Yue looked at each other, and the two looked at each other. The meaning of Xu Wenruo's eyes was very obvious, just saying to Qi Yue: How about it? You messed up.
Qi Yue gave Xu Wenruo a blank look, and while wrapping dumplings, she continued to chat with Ms. Deng Xinyu. In order to take revenge on Xu Wenruo, she pretended to be interested in Xu Wenruo's childhood affairs, and asked Ms. Deng Xinyu to continue to tell the interesting stories of Xu Wenruo when she was a child.
When Ms. Deng Xinyu was said to this, she smiled happily on her face and decisively sold her son without hesitation. This made Xu Wenruo's expression look very ugly. He had no idea how the current situation would end.
Not long after, the four of them seemed to be eating dumplings together happily, but in fact, everyone was having a different heart. Ms. Deng Xinyu and Qi Yue seemed very close. Even if they only met for less than a day, they were so good that they were like biological mother and daughter. Xu Wenruo couldn't help but shake her head when she saw it.
After dinner, Xu Wenruo finally found a free time and pulled Qi Yue out of the door. He felt that the two of them should have a good talk. Xu Wenruo never expected that he would have invited Qi Yue to his house today, and that would become like this.
"You said, what should I do next?" Xu Wenruo sighed softly, then said with a helpless expression.
"What should I do, I don't understand."
"Then when do you plan to explain it clearly?"
"That's your business, what does it have to do with me? I just can't refuse Aunt Deng's kindness."
Qi Yue stared at Xu Wenruo with wide eyes, her eyes full of innocence, but Xu Wenruo, who knew her very well, could see a hint of teasing and gloating in Qi Yue's eyes. It seemed that Qi Yue was really happy to see Xu Wenruo being anxious like this.
"Then you are planning to break the can."
"Don't say you're throwing the jar, you can cook raw rice and cook it."
Qi Yue blinked Shui Lingling's eyes, her eyes full of cramps. It seemed that she was not worried at all. Xu Wenruo was not willing to be outdone when she saw this.
"Okay, don't close the door tonight! I'll go and cook the rice with raw rice!"
"I'm afraid of you! If you don't, it won't be closed!"
Qi Yue's tone was still stubborn, but there was a blush on her neck and cheeks, but she still chose to stare at Xu Wenruo with wide eyes.
However, just when the two of them stared at each other with wide eyes and were not willing to be outdone, Ms. Deng Xinyu's voice suddenly came from behind. She suddenly opened the door and saw the two people whispering outside the door, her eyes filled with a smile that I had already fully understood the situation.
"You two are still hiding and whispering. What can you say at home?"
"I……"
"You guys will talk about it later. Xiao Qi, I'm going to help you clean up the room. Come and see what else is missing."
"I'll bother Aunt Deng, so I'll help you clean up."
"You kid, I call me Aunt Deng, what else is there to worry about? A small matter."
Qi Yue stepped forward to hold Ms. Deng Xinyu's arm, and then the two walked into the door with a giggle, leaving only Xu Wenruo alone and being confused in the wind.
At night, Xu Wenruo slept so hard that he didn't run to Qi Yue's room to open the door. Of course, he didn't know whether Qi Yue locked the door.
Anyway, when Xu Wenruo woke up the next day, he saw Ms. Deng Xinyu and Qi Yue were already busy making breakfast. Seeing that they were busy, they really looked like a family. However, now Xu Wenruo has accepted his fate and has no turbulence in his mood.
After breakfast, Xu Wenruo and Qi Yue went to the studio. At this time, many of the employees in the studio had already had a holiday, and only a few had not gone home for the New Year, so they volunteered to work overtime in the studio. Anyway, they were idle, so they might as well come to the company to work overtime and get three times their salary.
In fact, the studio does not have much work at the moment. You only need to pay attention to the box office results of the movies currently being released and the public opinion online. The work content is very easy. It is better to say that you are here to play in the studio rather than going to work.
Along the way, Xu Wenruo kept staring at Qi Yue, and Qi Yue felt embarrassed. He blushed and looked at Xu Wenruo with confusion.
"What do you think I'm doing? My eyes are straight and I feel embarrassed."
"You drive first and then talk about it."
Xu Wenruo looked at Qi Yue with an expressionless face. Qi Yue curled her lips, then shook her head slightly, stepped on the accelerator, and immediately raised the speed.
When they arrived downstairs of the studio, Xu Wenruo looked at Qi Yue who had parked the car, so he walked to her side and walked towards the office together.
"What do you plan to do in the future?"
"What to do? Cool."
Seeing Qi Yue's attitude, Xu Wenruo smiled bitterly, and then stopped asking questions. Forget it, let it go. So Xu Wenruo followed Qi Yue to the studio, and neither of them said much along the way.
Xu Wenruo entered the office and had just brewed a pot of tea. As soon as she sat down and rested for a while, she saw Qi Yue walking in with a document. She picked up a cup of tea in front of Xu Wenruo without hesitation and put it in front of her, and then began to re-environment the data on the document with Xu Wenruo.
"The data of the movie yesterday has come out. Let me tell you. The box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" yesterday was 560 million, which is not much different from the previous pre-sale box office, and the attendance rate is as high as 96%.
"In addition, the reputation is also very good. Currently, 50,000 people have commented on Huapean, with a score of 9.5. It is the highest-rated movie in recent years. The audience after watching the movie has been praised by the audience, and even held heated discussions on major websites and forums. The format of the movie is very good."
Qi Yue's face, who reported the results, was full of joy. He could get this data on the first day, which proves that the box office results of this movie must be less than a lot, so Qi Yue was very happy.
After listening to the data, Xu Wenruo also showed a smile on his face. Even though he was full of confidence in the movie, he was still filled with excitement after hearing that the movie had achieved good results.
"How are the results of several other movies?"
After listening to his own achievements, Xu Wenruo also wanted to understand the achievements of his competitors and not relax at all when participating in the New Year holiday, because all the movies released at the same time were not good at all, and they might be overtaken by them if they were not careful.
"We ranked first in the box office yesterday, and the second place was the movie "Alien Arrival" starring Huang Bo. The box office was 380 million yuan on the first day, but there seemed to be some problems with their box office reputation. It is said that the plot behind is a bit flawed, and many netizens are complaining about it."
"The third place is Qingyun Media's "Cat Cat". The box office on the first day was 290 million yuan, and the reputation was pretty good. Many people think that this martial arts movie has the same flavor as before, but this movie is not our competitor. They focus on martial arts and nostalgia, and it does not pose any threat to us."
"The fourth place is "Tianya Inn", which has a box office of 250 million on the first day. Although this movie ranks fourth, its results are not too bad and its reputation is pretty good. Its current petal score is 8.3, but its popularity on the Internet is not very high. I guess Huayi Media will definitely make some moves next."
After listening to the results of several other movies, Xu Wenruo fell into thinking. Judging from the current trend, the results of "Let the Bullets Fly" are indeed superior and stand out. Even the first-day box office results of the other three movies are not too bad, but compared with "Let the Bullets Fly", it is a bit of a big deal.
But the more this happens, the more you need to be careful. The wood is in the forest and the wind will destroy it. People in the leading position must be guarded against the open and secret arrows of their competitors. Xu Wenruo thought carefully. There is a little problem with the plot and reputation of "Alien Arrival". They are too busy to take care of themselves, and they are afraid they are not in the mood to make small moves with Xu Wenruo.
Although this is a movie starring Huang Bo, he has a good relationship with Xu Wenruo, so he doesn't have to be on guard against this movie. In fact, normally, the beneficiaries of a movie will be many companies. The starring actors are only the beneficiaries on the surface, and the companies behind them are the big ones. They have no friendship with Xu Wenruo, and they only have a naked interest entanglement.
Qingyun Media's "Cyclops" seems to be two types of movies and "Let the Bullets Fly", which seems to be a relationship that is not even close. But in fact, the two sides are also in a competitive relationship, and the number of people watching movies will generally not change. Normally, movie fans will only choose one movie to watch, and few people go to the cinema to watch movies one after another.
Therefore, even if "Alien Arrival" cannot protect itself and "Chain Cat" is harmless, Xu Wenruo has to be careful and has to be careful.
As for "Tianya Inn", there is no need to say more. Huayi Media and Xu Wenruo are old rivals. This time they collided in the New Year holiday. They will definitely not be able to smile so easily. In the publicity stage, relying on the offline channels of China Film Group, "Let the Bullets Fly" steadily suppressed them.
But now that the movie has been released, we will fight a public opinion war online. This is the old profession of Huayi Media. They are familiar with these things, and Xu Wenruo must be careful.
"Let several employees keep a close eye on the public opinion online later. If there are any negative comments, they must report it in time, especially Huayi Media to prevent them from making some small moves."
"I understand, let's make arrangements right away. Don't worry, there will definitely be no mistakes this time."
Qi Yue nodded. She also knew the seriousness of the problem. They had experienced Huayi Media's methods many times, and this time they would not relax their vigilance.
Xu Wenruo picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. The hot tea entered his throat and a hint of warmth was added to his body. He looked at Qi Yue opposite him, and she was also quietly tasting tea. The atmosphere between the two looked very harmonious.
"When you finish your work, go pack your luggage, or my mother should urge you again."
When Xu Wenruo said this, he seemed very calm. He had completely given up on explaining and let it go. After all, he explained to Ms. Deng Xinyu for a long time yesterday, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
If you tell the truth, she thinks you are joking and even makes up for it. This is very unsolvable. In the end, Xu Wenruo was too lazy to explain to her.
Hearing Xu Wenruo's words, Qi Yue nodded expressionlessly, then quickly finished the hot tea in the cup, and ran out of Xu Wenruo's office, as if he was running away in panic, making Xu Wenruo confused. It was really hard to guess the woman's heart and the needle under the sea.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Wenruo and Qi Yue left the studio. He followed Qi Yue to the apartment to pack his luggage. Qi Yue's apartment was not far from the studio. She usually had a relaxing time and got off work, except that she had to pick up Xu Wenruo at times.
When he walked into Qi Yue's apartment, Xu Wenruo's eyes showed an unexpected look. He thought that Qi Yue, as a workaholic, should have a mess in the apartment, but he didn't expect that the entire apartment was neat and orderly, and looked very beautiful.
Seeing Xu Wenruo's eyes looking at him after entering the apartment, Qi Yue glared at him angrily, and then pushed Xu Wenruo onto the sofa.
"What are you looking at! Look at it and dig out your eyes!"
Qi Yue was angry and embarrassed. Xu Wenruo spread her hands and her expression was filled with innocence.
"Don't I need to clean up for you?"
"I'll just take some toiletries and a few pieces of changing clothes, and I'll need you to help me clean up?"
"Then you go quickly, I'll wait for you in the living room."
Qi Yue snorted coldly, then walked into the room, closed the door and cleaned it up alone, while Xu Wenruo stayed bored in the living room. After a group of people, Xu Wenruo stood up and ran to the balcony to see the scenery outside.
As soon as he opened the window, the cold wind blew outside, Xu Wenruo suddenly became much more energetic, but he didn't expect Qi Yue to suddenly appear behind him and look at him with a vigilant expression.
"What are you doing?"
"I'll take a breather."
