Chapter 204: Singles Day?

After visiting the class, Zhou Xing did not stay in the crew for too long. After all, as the boss, he was always on the front line, and employees would feel pressured, and the director would be uncomfortable, which would be unfavorable for creation.

The effect of visiting this time was very good. Whether it was Wang Kai or Jiao Junyan, their acting skills were actually pretty good, and the main reason was that they were not confident. After all, two young actors who were not famous suddenly had to bear the box office of a movie, they were inevitably worried about gains and losses.

After the crew resumed filming, Jiao Junyan and Wang Kai's performance was getting better and better. I have to admit that sometimes psychological hints are very useful.

Time quietly comes to July. Perhaps it is because of the hot weather or the uneasy approaching the due date, Tong Liya's temper has become increasingly dry recently, and she often has nightmares in the middle of the night.

As a last resort, Zhou's mother asked her to stay away from her master bedroom for half a year, and Zhou Xing had to return to her master bedroom again to comfort her.

For this reason, my mother-in-law also asked for leave to take care of Tong Liya. Thanks to her mother-in-law, otherwise Zhou Xing's life would be even more difficult.

In the words of my mother-in-law, this girl is spoiled by you so much that no one is like this.

Originally, my mother-in-law was a little worried before coming, and was afraid that Tong Liya would be wronged. But after I arrived, I realized that my son-in-law was spoiled by her daughter as part-time job as she was. She drove to buy fruit in the middle of the night. She just stopped her daughter because her feet were swollen during pregnancy. She squatted on the ground to massage her daughter, and she pressed her for more than half an hour.

At first, the mother-in-law was trying to find Zhou Xing's fault with the purpose of supporting her daughter. As a result, after living for a month, the mother-in-law gave up on this idea and began to criticize Tong Liya's fault.

Tong Liya once complained: "Whose mother are you?"

As the due date approached, Zhou Xing simply stopped going to the company at all and stayed at home all day. Although his mother-in-law repeatedly stated that they were taken care of at home, so that Zhou Xing could rest assured to be busy with his career, he just smiled.

I don’t know if it was the child who was naughty or shy. Tong Liya’s due date has passed two days, but there is still no sign of giving birth. Just when Tong Liya was about to go home, she suddenly had a giving birth.

Outside the operating room, the family was waiting anxiously, and Zhou Xing suddenly lost his opinion and was so panicked.

Fortunately, the caesarean surgery was quite smooth. When the lights in the operating room went out and the door opened, a nurse and a young lady hugged a baby and asked, "Who is Tong Liya's family?" Zhou Xing came back to his senses and rushed forward.

What Zhou’s father and mother are most concerned about is: “Nurse, is it a boy or a girl?”

The nurse congratulated: "It's a boy, six pounds and three ounces, very healthy, you guys see."

The newborn child is really not very good-looking, with wrinkled skin like a little old man, but his hands look cute with slim hands. Zhou Xing took the child over under the guidance of the nurse.

Before the little guy's eyes opened, Zhou Xing just hugged him like this, his posture was a little stiff. Zhou's mother was so happy to see that she was giving birth to a boy: "Look at the little guy, it's exactly the same as Ah Xing when he was a child, and he will definitely be a handsome guy in the future."

Well, just this little facial features that have not yet grown, how can it be seen that it looks like him?

Zhou Xing came back to his senses from the initial shock and joy and handed the child over to his mother-in-law: "Hello, how is my wife?"

The nurse smiled and said, "Don't worry, the operation is normal and you will be out soon."

Sure enough, almost half an hour later, the nurse pushed Tong Liya's hospital bed out.

In the ward, Tong Liya looked at her son and frowned in disgust: "So ugly, she must look like his father."

"What are you talking nonsense?" The mother-in-law glared at her daughter in anger. If she hadn't seen that she had just come out of the operating room, she would have probably gotten started.

Of course, Tong Liya didn't feel good for long. After the anesthetic was over, she started to scream and felt so distressed by Zhou Xing. However, after the doctor came to see him, he said: "It's normal. If it hurts too much, just go to the analgesic pump."

The mother-in-law laughed and scolded: "You girls now can't bear any hardships. I gave birth to you naturally when I gave birth to you, and it's not as exaggerated as you."

Tong Liya expressed her dissatisfaction with her mother's shattering, and then urged the doctor to go to the painkiller pump as soon as possible.

A week later, a picture appeared on Zhou Xing’s Weibo, with a big hand holding a white and tender little fat hand, and the whole picture looked particularly harmonious.

The most important thing is that there is a line of words left below the picture: 35 years of expectation, finally waiting for your arrival, welcome to this world.

For a time, the number of visits to Weibo began to soar, and Zhou Xing's Weibo comments were even more popular, and the comments I just posted were immediately stepped on to hundreds of floors.

The number of forwardings exceeded 100,000 in just half an hour. Not only Zhou Xing’s Weibo, but also Tong Liya’s Weibo is surrounded by blessed comments.

It’s okay for Zhou Xing, his popularity is there, but Tong Liya. Logically speaking, the marriage of female celebrities in the entertainment industry will definitely have a huge impact on her career. But with Tong Liya, this law seems to have no existence at all.

Since she got married to Zhou Xing, her Weibo fans have exceeded 10 million, especially during this period, when she was pregnant, she had nothing to do at home all day, and could only post on Weibo, which directly brought the number of Weibo fans to an astonishing 15 million.

Even because Tong Liya turned down all her work, things became expensive, so many commercial performances and film contracts have not only not decreased, but Tong Liya's value has also begun to rise.

"No matter what method you use, find out which hospital Tong Liya is in and take photos of the child at all costs!" So almost all the entertainment reporters began to go out.

Not only that, but there are also media offering millions of rewards just to get a photo of the child.

However, these reporters were destined to be lost. After staying in the hospital for a week, Tong Liya could no longer bear it. With the hospital's farewell, she returned home and started her confinement.

The little guy started to open his eyes three days after he was born. His dark eyes seemed to be shining with light, which looked very beautiful. Of course, most of the time, the little guy was still sleeping when he was full.

Tong Liya teased the little guy. She obviously liked him so much, but she still disliked him: "Why are you still so ugly?"

The mother-in-law was so angry that she poked her forehead hard.

Zhou Xing did not think that his son was ugly. Although his skin was wrinkled and not so beautiful, when such a villain was held in his arms, his strong sense of happiness was enough to make him ignore all this.

At the end of July [33 Days of Love Break], the filming was officially completed. At the final banquet, a reporter lined up his photo for the first time after Zhou Xing disappeared from the public eye three months later. In the photo, Zhou Xing always had a smile on his face, and there seemed to be light flashing in his eyes.

Just a photo, without any other interview content. The content of a picture is really all about editing. Even so, the number of views and forwardings has made amazing profits for the media.

[33 Days of Love Break] After the filming was completed, "Zhixing Film and Television" began to become busier, not only the later and promotional work of [33 Days of Love Break], but also the filming of [Naked Marriage Era] is about to start.

Under the persuasion of her mother-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhou Xing also changed from a full-time dad to a part-time dad, and began to focus part of his energy on work.

In the words of the mother-in-law, "Don't worry, can the three women in the family still handle a child?"

Time quietly came to September. Mango TV released another Qing Palace drama [Shock Heart] after [Palace Lock Heart].

Once broadcast, the national ratings reached an astonishing 1.3%.

Liu Shishi has also become the hottest actress in the entertainment industry in one fell swoop from a supporting role with a little fame. She is no less popular than Yang Mi who has passed the previous [Palace Lock Heart Jade].

Not only that, the fire of [Shocking Hearts] has also made Wu Qilong, who has been silent for many years, become popular again. Some supporting roles, such as Yuan Hong and Lin Gengxin, have also ushered in a career spring.

This is enough to prove that in the mainland entertainment industry, TV dramas are definitely the first choice for star-making, and for a time, there have been more and more companies in mainland China participating in film and television drama production.

Gao Qunshu also felt that the pressure was increasing. Although last year was a year of "Zhixing Film and Television" and the two TV series became famous, the audience's memory was actually very short-lived. If there were no good works this year, the popularity of "Zhixing Film and Television" would soon fall.

Zhou Xing comforted: "Lao Gao, don't put such great pressure on yourself. Although the competition is more intense now, don't forget that the cake in the market is also getting bigger."

Zhou Xing said this with evidence. The main audience of TV series before was housewives, that is, Zhou Xing's mother. Most young people rarely watch TV series on TV.

However, with the development of online video platforms in recent years, watching TV shows online has become a leisure lifestyle for young people. Although there is no specific data, it can be seen from the surge in the purchase price of TV shows by online video platforms.

You should know that in 10 years [Du Lala's promotion] online copyright of 1 million yuan per episode was already a sky-high price at that time, and this year the same hit series has risen to 2 million yuan per episode, which means that a TV series with more than 30 episodes can be bought with online copyrights alone.

And is it a fool who spends so much money to buy copyrights on online platforms? It is definitely not. When the online copyright was free, there were dozens of video platforms across the country, but with the "position war" of online copyright, there are only a few that are really capable of spending a lot of money to buy copyrights.

Youku and Tudou are fighting for copyright. iQiyi Video was just launched last year but also performed well. LeTV began to try to make self-made dramas, Sohu Video also began to increase investment and wanted to compete for this cake. Tencent Video was also launched in April 2011, and the battle situation became more and more intense.

Obviously, these online video platforms have attracted the huge potential of film and television dramas, so they have invested such a large amount of money to compete for.

Gao Qunshu shook his head and said, "The addition of Internet giants has indeed made the entire industry develop rapidly, but I don't think this is a good thing."

Indeed, compared with coal bosses, Zhou Xing certainly prefers coal bosses because they will not interfere with the normal creation of film and television companies.

In the eyes of Internet companies, video platforms are just one part of the entire Internet ecosystem, and their development is to serve the entire ecosystem. Therefore, various advertising implants began to appear frequently in film and television dramas, and some viewers even complained that it is not the interstitial advertisements in the plot, but the interstitial plots in the advertisements. Of course, this phenomenon is only reflected in some platforms' self-made dramas.

"A grain of sand in the times falls on each of us, which is a mountain. Many things cannot be controlled by us. However, I believe that in the field of film and television dramas, as long as we do our best with our hearts, there will definitely be audiences to buy it." Zhou Xing patted Gao Qunshu's shoulder.

"Well, I hope you are right." Gao Qunshu sighed.

Zhou Xing changed the topic: "By the way, is the schedule for [33 Days of Love Break] set?"

Gao Qunshu shook his head: "Not yet. I originally planned to be released during the National Day holiday, but two blockbusters were released simultaneously during the National Day holiday. A small-cost movie like [33 Days of Love Break], if you go through this period of time, you will probably only be cannon fodder."

Zhou Xing thought it was true that there were two blockbusters during the National Day holiday, one was [Painted Wall] and the other was [Legend of White Snake]. I don’t know how the quality of these two films is, but they are indeed blockbusters with famous directors and stars.

[Painted Wall] is a work by famous director Chen Jia, and is known as a sister piece of [Painted Skin]. It has become popular as soon as it started shooting.

[Legend of White Snake] is the work of the well-known martial arts director Chen Xiaodong, and it is Li Lianjie's first return to China to make a film after many years. For this Kung Fu Emperor, the older generation of viewers naturally have to pay for their feelings.

This will cause trouble. There are only a few schedules for the mainland film market that can get high box office, including summer, national day, and new year's period.

Obviously, it is difficult to grab such a popular schedule for low-cost movies like [33 Days of Love Break], so there is no need to think about the Lunar New Year holiday. In the face of blockbusters like [Dragon Gate Flying Armor] [Jinling Thirteen Flowers], there is no competitiveness at all.

"Do you have to wait until next summer?" Zhou Xing frowned slightly.

Gao Qunshu hesitated for a moment: "Actually, the original author of [33 Days of Love Break] gave us an idea."

"oh?"

Gao Qunshu said: "She suggested that we can be released during Double Eleven."

"Why?" Zhou Xing asked curiously.

Gao Qunshu handed over a document: "In fact, Double Eleven was a concept created by online e-commerce in 2009, called Singles' Day. At that time, Taobao attracted 27 merchants to conduct promotions, and sales reached 50 million that day. In the past 10 years, Double Eleven's sales reached an astonishing 936 million."

Zhou Xing looked at the data and nodded slowly: "So, what she meant is that this singles' Day created by the merchant has a certain influence among young people. It just so happened that [33 Days of Love Break] is very consistent with this theme?"

Gao Qunshu nodded.

Zhou Xing fell into deep thought, and this plan was a bit risky. In the end, Zhou Xing gave up the plan to hold [33 Days of Love Break] in his hands and release it again next year. After all, who can guarantee that he will not have a car crash with a blockbuster next year?
