Early December.

A cold wave is coming.

The temperature plummeted to 0 degrees, the cold wind blew, and not many people were seen on the street.

In the past few days, Shaoyang took time to go to the company and signed contracts with two issuers.

Generally speaking, a movie can find up to five distributors, because if there are too many distributors, the profits generated from the box office will also be diluted.

Then I went to Hunan Province with Xue Jiajia and Yang Lan to record an episode of "Hello Weekend"

next week.

These three programs will all be online, which will definitely further expand the influence of "Charlotte Trouble".

For a new director like Shao Yang, the early publicity of the movie is still very important.

Everything is ready, now we are waiting for the New Year's Day movie to be released online.

evening.

After Shao Yang, who had been watching TV series on the sofa with Xue Jiajia all afternoon, received a text message, he put on his windbreaker and got up and said: "Xiao Yue'er is on vacation. I'll pick her up from school. Just wait for us at home."

"Ah."

Xue Jiajia was too lazy to go out in such a cold weather.

"I'm going to the supermarket on the way. How about having hot pot tonight?"

"Okay."

Shaoyang walked to the door. As soon as he opened the door, the cold wind blew against his face.

Shao Yang pulled a scarf around his neck and walked out.

……

This year's winter is earlier than usual.

Other places are deserted, but the gate of Jiaotong University is very lively.

Most departments have finished their last exam today, and there are many students who want to rush home.

Xiao Yue'er has already packed her luggage. Among her three roommates, two are locals and one is from the Northeastern Black Province. They all plan to go home today.

"My mother has already arrived at the school gate, so I'll leave first."

"See you next year."

"Haha, see you next year."

A tall, thin girl wearing glasses was pulling her suitcase and preparing to go out. Xiao Yue'er hurriedly said: "Jiaying, let me go with you. My brother should be here soon."

"Okay."

After Xiao Yue'er pulled her suitcase and followed her roommate Guo Jiaying out of the dormitory building, she walked straight to the school entrance.

"Why is it so cold this year? I feel like my face is freezing."

"It's because you wear too little."

Xiao Yue'er was wearing a thick white down jacket, a hat on her head, and her whole body was wrapped tightly.

Guo Jiaying next to her was wearing quite thick clothes on her upper body, but underneath she was only wearing a pair of bare legs.

Guo Jiaying has a carefree personality. She chuckled and said, "I can't help it. I can only choose between temperature and demeanor. I also want to find a boyfriend soon."

After she finished her military training, she often talked about "finding a boyfriend", and Xiao Yue'er was already used to it.

When we almost reached the school gate.

On the uphill road on the left, a male classmate suddenly shouted: "Shao Yuer~"

Xiao Yue'er turned around and stopped.

Guo Jiaying also knows the male classmate. His name is Cai Haoyu, and he is their senior. Although he looks average, he is a top student in the computer department and has won many programming competition awards.

"Senior Cai."

"Are you going home today too?"

"Ah."

"Is anyone here to pick you up? If not, I'll ask my uncle to take you to the subway station."

Guo Jiaying smiled sweetly and said, "Senior Cai, no need, someone will pick us up."

"Okay, I'll leave first, my uncle is still waiting for me at the school gate."

"Ah."

Watching Cai Haoyu run towards the school gate quickly, Guo Jiaying touched Xiao Yue'er with her elbow and said, "Okay, does this great guy from the computer department recognize you?"

"He is also from the English club."

"No wonder."

"Then you..." Guo Jiaying gave Xiao Yue'er a wink.

Xiao Yue'er said speechlessly: "Senior Cai seems to have a girlfriend. Besides, I don't plan to fall in love in college."

"Ah?" Guo Jiaying glared and said, "We don't fall in love in college. When are you going to have one?"

"Let's talk about it later."

"Xiao Yue'er, let me tell you, you have to find a boyfriend as early as possible..."

Guo Jiaying talked all the way, but Xiao Yuer ignored her words.

Walking to the school gate, Guo Jiaying quickly got on the bus.

Didn't wait a few minutes. Yuebao Bookstore

Shao Yang drove over in Xue Jiajia's BMW. In the crowd, Shao Yang saw his sister at a glance.

Shaoyang put on his hat, put the neutral gear on and pulled the handbrake. He got out of the car and stuffed Xiao Yue'er's suitcase into the trunk. Then he rubbed his hands and put them on Xiao Yue'er's cheek. He smiled and said, "You must be freezing, get in quickly." Come on, the car has air conditioning."

"Ah."

Xiao Yue'er got into the passenger seat, and Shao Yang drove him to the supermarket. When they got home, the three of them started preparing the hot pot for dinner.

At this time, Yan Fei sent a WeChat message with a simple content: "Childhood Sweethearts" is scheduled to be released.

There are many reasons why Shaoyang makes movies.

But the biggest reason is that the quality of the current domestic film market is so... rubbish.

"Flood", which has a box office of [-] billion, is just a flash in the pan. If the box office exceeds [-] billion, it is considered a high-quality film.

I heard from the distributor that there should be seven movies released during the Spring Festival this year. Apart from two cartoons and one movie imported from abroad, there are only four competitive movies.

A "Childhood Sweethearts"

A "Happy New Year"

A "Charlotte Troubles"

A "Night Walk in Brocade"

"Happy New Year" is an urban drama that talks about family relationships. Although there are a few veteran actors in the movie, this kind of movie will not have a high box office no matter how well it is shot.

"Night Walk in Jinyi" is a martial arts drama, but this movie is adapted from a previous martial arts novel that has been filmed countless times. To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than old wine in new bottles. Movies with this theme will not be successful at the box office. How high is it?

Although Shao Yang is a new director and there are no other stars in the movie, Shao Yang's fan base is here, and the most important thing is that "Charlotte Troubles" itself is a comedy. It is released during the Spring Festival, and it actually has buffs. It's done.

The Chinese New Year is a day for family reunion. Many people choose to go to the movies as a family. If you watch a martial arts drama, it is not good for children. If you watch a romantic drama, it is not good for the elderly. The only option is comedy.

However, it's okay if the comedy is done well, but if it's not done well, both the director and the actors will be scolded by netizens. Therefore, even if comedies have buff bonuses during the Spring Festival, there are not many directors willing to make comedies.

Shao Yang is quite confident about the movie "Charlotte Troubles".

He knew that his only competitor was "Childhood Sweethearts".

There are too many stars in this movie, and they are all popular actors. Their combined number of fans is by no means less than his own.

Shaoyang is still more or less worried.

But then.

Yan Fei sent another message: "Li Bin also participated in this movie."

Shao Yang quickly typed and asked: "Are you sure?"

"determine."

Shao Yang suddenly smiled when he saw the message from Yan Fei, and he replied: "If an actor like Li Bin can participate in this movie, then I will be fine watching this movie, so don't worry. .”

Yan Fei laughed out loud when he saw this sentence from Shao Yang while sitting on the sofa.

Although he won't get a share of this movie, he can still have his name in the director's column. If the movie does well at the box office, it will only be good for him and not bad.

Xue Jiajia, who was lying on the sofa, saw Shao Yang smirking, so she stretched out her legs and kicked Shao Yang and said, "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing about the movie."

Xiao Yue'er pointed to the kitchen and said, "Brother, the soup seems to be ready."

Shao Yang took Xue Jiajia's feet off his body, stood up and walked to the kitchen to pour the bone soup from the pressure cooker into the mandarin duck pot, and put the hot pot base into one side of the mandarin duck pot.

The soup had just been boiled, but not long after plugging in the power, the pot started boiling.

"Come and eat."

Xue Jiajia and Xiao Yuer quickly put on their cotton slippers and ran over.

"Xiao Yue'er, don't eat spicy food."

"Oh."

Xue Jiajia was puzzled: "Why not let her eat spicy food?"

Shao Yang gave Xue Jiajia a look.

Xue Jiajia understood immediately and shut her mouth obediently.

"How are Qin Yuhan and that Peng Ming doing?" Shaoyang asked casually while eating.

Since Qin Yuhan's birthday, they have often inquired about these things in the group.

Xue Jiajia also came and said with interest: "WeChat has been added. I heard that we have been chatting recently, but I don't know how far it has developed."

"Didn't you ask Yuhan?"

"She won't tell." Xue Jiajia smiled and said, "But Aunt Qiu seems to be quite satisfied with Peng Ming. Shen Shuhua said that Peng Ming's father seems to be the head of the Asia-Pacific region of a French cosmetics brand, and his mother is also the CFO of a domestic securities company. It’s quite a match.”

Shao Yang smiled and said: "It's time for your best friends to fall in love. In a small place like ours, many girls get married at the age of twenty-one or twelve."

"They all have high expectations."

The two are chatting.

Xiao Yue'er's cell phone suddenly rang.

She took it out of her pocket and looked at it, and said quickly: "Brother, it's a video from my mother."

"Hurry up."

Xiao Yue'er quickly connected to the video.

"Xiao Yue'er, is school on holiday?"

"I was just released today, and my brother has already picked me up and brought me back to where I live."

Upon hearing this, Chen Lanying hurriedly said: "Give that phone to your brother."

"Mom~"

"Xiaoyang, have you eaten?"

"He's eating right now." Shaoyang turned the camera around and took a picture of the hot pot on the table.

When Chen Lanying saw Xue Jiajia, she quickly changed her language and spoke Mandarin: "Are you busy with work recently?"

"It's been okay lately, not very busy."

"Then when do you plan to go home for the New Year?"

The new home was decorated in August or September, and the furniture was almost complete. In order to move in before the end of the year, the couple hired a formaldehyde removal company. Now they are waiting for Shaoyang to bring their girlfriend home during the New Year. .

Shao Yang raised his head and glanced at Xue Jiajia, his eyes telling Xue Jiajia: My mother is hinting that I will take you home during the New Year.

Xue Jiajia was still a little nervous when she thought about that kind of occasion, and the heat of the hot pot breathed on her face, making her face turn red.

"About a week ago."

Chen Lanying nodded, she paused, and suddenly shouted: "Jiajia?"

Shao Yang was stunned for a moment and handed the phone directly to Xue Jiajia.

Xue Jiajia gave Shao Yang a wild look, but when Shao Yang pointed the camera at her, she immediately shouted obediently: "Auntie~"

"Auntie is at home waiting for you to come and play."

"Oh...um...ok!"

Seeing Xue Jiajia's reserved look, Shao Yang took back his phone and said, "Mom, let's do this for now, let's eat hot pot."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Shao Yang said with a smile: "Look at you like that, you are really worthless~"

"To shut up!"

"Haha, come on, eat a piece of shrimp slippery and open your mouth, ah~"
