Knocked out

Chapter 41

Gu Chao recalled the heads of all commercial plazas nationwide under the group to the company and held a meeting overnight.

Before the recall, he did not tell them why.Instead, let the assistant count the filming rate of "Interstellar Fog 3".On the first day of the screening, the average screening rate was 39.6%. Today is the second day, and all films with a screening rate lower than 30.00% were sorted out and handed over to Gu Chao.

The meeting started at eight o'clock the next morning.

At the meeting, Gu Chao first named the person in charge of the theater whose film scheduling rate was less than [-]%, "What's the matter with your film scheduling rate and attendance rate? Explain."

The person in charge stood up, his legs trembling.At the behest of Mr. Gu, he reduced the screening rate of Star 3 and put another movie that was about to be released, and the attendance rate was less than [-]%.Facing Mr. Gu's question at this time, he still didn't know where he was wrong, so he could only bite the bullet and explain, "I mainly want to support domestic films, and I don't want to be robbed of the limelight by foreign films."

Gu Chao's face darkened, he didn't expect the other party to be so shameless that he used patriotism as an excuse.

"That's really great. The group is currently developing the Indonesian market. You go back and hand over the work and fly to Indonesia before the end of the month."

"President Gu?"

"The person in charge of the foreign market needs someone like you." Gu Chao's tone was indifferent, and then he continued to name the remaining dozens of people in charge who had a low film scheduling rate, "Are you also supporting domestic films?"

A group of people chattered, "Mr. Gu, listen to our explanation. It's actually the old Mr. Gu's request."

Gu Chao's eyes were sharp, and he looked at everyone, "So do you want to step down with Mr. Gu, or do you want to go abroad to take charge of the market like him?"

The crowd fell silent.

Gu Chaodao, "I ordered the names just now, and after I went back, the filming rate increased to 70.00% for me. I will check the data tomorrow, and if I can't reach it, I will all get out."

How can this work.There are also a lot of movies released at the same time, and such a schedule rate will cause dissatisfaction among others.However, they knew they were wrong and dared not speak up.

After the meeting, everyone went back to their homes.On the way, I have ordered my subordinates to reschedule the filming of Star 3.

Others who didn't follow Mr. Gu's orders also acted according to the wind and tried to increase the film placement rate of Star 3 on the basis of not violating market rules.In addition, they also inquired within the group that Mr. Gu invested in Star 3.Anyway, there is nothing wrong with multiple rows of films.

After solving this problem, Gu Chao's mood was not so refreshing.

It's no wonder he's happy to have such a father who trips him up every day.He found time to call Chen Sheng, and Chen Sheng had already returned to the filming crew.I didn't receive it at first, so I called him back during the break.

"The problem of film scheduling has been solved. I have asked them to increase the film scheduling rate that was pulled down between them."

Chen Sheng was sitting in front of the dressing table, and the makeup teacher was arranging his styling.

Gu Chengjiang really almost killed him this time. The crew of "Interstellar Fog 3" chose Chen Sheng as the second male lead among the two male leads in order to cater to the domestic market. The role is extremely important in the movie.As a result, on the second day after the screening, Gu Chengjiang made such a big move secretly, which had a very bad influence on Chen Sheng.

Being tampered with in his career, Chen Sheng lost his good temper, and said directly on the phone, "Can you ask your father to calm down? Can the lawsuit be withdrawn? If things get serious, why don't you let me go outside?" Be human?"

Chen Sheng rarely gets angry.The assistants and make-up teacher present looked at each other and silently exited the dressing room.

When Chen Sheng heard the door closing, he no longer suppressed his anger, "I just heard that your father will hold a press conference tomorrow. I don't know what he will tell the media, but he only needs to mention me and One word, child, and you won’t have to go home again in the future!”

After Chen Sheng finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

He was really pissed off.

After Gu Chao was hung up by his wife, he immediately implemented the so-called press conference.Sure enough, his father had another moth.

Gu Chao had a severe headache, and he brought dozens of security guards from the company building back to Gu's house.

Gu Chengjiang has just been discharged from the hospital and is recuperating at home.Seeing his son coming with so many people, he pointed to them and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Gu Chao said coldly, "In order to protect your safety, they will stay by your side [-]/[-] from now on."

As he said that, Gu Chao stepped forward and took Gu Chengjiang's mobile phone from the coffee table, "You don't need this anymore, take good care of yourself at home."

This was originally Gu Chengjiang's most common move. Before, he would keep his children at home and not allow them to go out.

Now Gu Chao retaliated with an eye, and told the security captain, "Next, please protect my father and not allow him to take a step out of the house. If you have other situations, you can contact me in time, and make sure to take good care of him."

Gu Chengjiang was so angry that he patted the coffee table and stood up, "Gu Chao, you are treasonous!"

In front of his father, Gu Chao called all three older sisters and told them about the current situation at home, allowing them to come back and enlighten the old man when they had time.

However, the eldest sister said, "I'm abroad, and my daughter is about to graduate, and I'm waiting to attend the graduation ceremony. You can make up your own mind about the family affairs, just let our dad eat and sleep well."

The second sister was even more rude, "Otherwise I'll contact Xu Ying to see if she's divorced? Let him take care of my father?"

After the third sister divorced, she reunited with her first love, Fang Cheng, and she was on her honeymoon at this time, so she didn't have time to pay attention.

The sisters don't have time to go home to coordinate conflicts, so Gu Chao can only take this method at the moment.No matter how Gu Chengjiang scolded him, he still insisted on letting the security guard guard Gu Chengjiang.

The subordinate who was in charge of holding a press conference for Gu Chengjiang had already been bribed by someone arranged by Gu Chao, and the case of fighting for custody was also withdrawn.

After Gu Chao settled everything, he rushed to the set without stopping to plead guilty to Chen Sheng.

Speaking of which, there was another reason why Chen Sheng was angry.

There was a small supporting role in the film crew who secretly hooked up with a certain rich second generation, who was a member of the supercar club that had bet with Gu Chao.

Ever since Gu Chao found out that Chen Sheng was pregnant, he completely cut off contact with those cronies.So they didn't know that the two were married.After meeting Chen Sheng on the set, the rich second generation chatted with the supporting actor about the bet they made back then.

Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.Now the whole crew knows that Chen Sheng was played with by a certain rich second generation.

And now the host has appeared.

Chen Sheng had just left the show and was about to go backstage to remove her makeup.He and his assistant talked about early childhood education while walking.

Seeing Gu Chao approaching, Chen Sheng pretended not to see it, and continued talking and laughing with his assistant.

Knowing that he was angry, Gu Chao silently followed the two backstage.

The assistant was sensible and took the initiative to avoid it.

Gu Chao stood in front of the dressing table, watching Chen Sheng take off his makeup.Chen Sheng ignored him, and he said in a flattering tone, "You don't have to worry about my dad. I've already taken care of it."

Chen Sheng asked him casually, "How did you solve it?"

Gu Chao replied truthfully, "I let people watch him."

Chen Sheng said hehe, "Sure enough, like a father, like a son." Whoever controls the power will lock up the other person.

Chen Sheng wiped away the bruises under the corners of his eyes with a makeup remover, and said, "If you have conflicts with the children in the future, will you also use this method?"

"I won't. Why should I fight with the kids?"

"Now they are young, and they are at your mercy. When they grow up, they will have their own minds. They will no longer obey your words, just like you no longer obey your father. When that time comes?"

"No. I am different from my father." Gu Chao insisted.

"But you never thought of easing your father-son relationship."

"Of course I've thought about it!" Gu Chao shrugged and shook his head, "But my dad can't be persuaded with just a few words."

Chen Sheng took off her makeup, got up and went to the dressing room to change, and then went to wash her face.He just wants to cure Gu Chao, so that Gu Chao will not become as annoying as his father when he grows old.

After changing into casual clothes and coming out, Chen Sheng looked at Gu Chao, and said word by word, "I'm just dissatisfied with the result of your treatment, and it's not a cure for the symptoms."

Gu Chao felt wronged.

The two left the set and drove home in their own cars.That night, Gu Chao was kicked out of the room and sent to the guest room to sleep.

The two children naturally slept with Chen Sheng in the master bedroom.Now that the two children are slowly weaning, they don't have to get up several times at night, which is much easier than before.

Chen Sheng slept with two little protectors, one on the left and one on the right, and was secretly called to the kitchen by Chen's mother the next morning.

Chen's mother lowered her voice and asked him, "Did you quarrel?"

"No."

"Didn't you quarrel and separate?"

"Just too tired. Want to sleep alone."

Chen's mother looked at Chen Sheng suspiciously, "I don't believe it. You tell me the truth. Gu Chao is very good, has a good temper, and is hardworking. Don't use your temper."

"Hey." Chen Sheng sighed, "I'm really fine. Leave it alone."

Mother Chen couldn't pry his mouth open, so she pulled Gu Chao into the kitchen after breakfast.

"Xiao Gu, tell me the truth, did you quarrel with Ah Sheng?"

Gu Chao shook his head, "There was no quarrel. I made him angry, so don't worry."

"Why did you mess with him?"

Gu Chao was a little embarrassed, "It's still because of my dad."

As soon as she heard that it was related to Gu Chengjiang, Mother Chen stopped asking.People of the older generation have a habit of not wanting to meddle in other people's family affairs.It would be fine if it could be resolved by leaving it at home, but she felt that it was not appropriate to ask further questions about the conflicts in the "son-in-law" family.

Mother Chen patted Gu Chao on the shoulder and comforted him, "A Sheng just has a bad temper. Don't be as knowledgeable as him."

Gu Chao hurriedly said, "No, it's because I didn't do well enough."

Mother Chen saw that he was so sensible, so she let him go out.

Gu Chao thought about his father, and then looked at Chen's father and Chen's mother.There is no harm without comparison.Gu Chengjiang is trying his best to sabotage every day, to cause trouble for their little husband and wife, for fear that they will live too well.

When Gu Chao came out of the kitchen, Chen Sheng had already left for the set.

"Research Report on Abnormal Human Death" will go to other places to film.Chen Sheng followed the crew to other places to film for half a month. When he returned to Whale City, the box office of "Interstellar Fog 3: Evil Force" has been counted. It sold [-] billion. All of them did well at the domestic box office.

Director David Lincoln specially invited Chen Sheng to the United States to participate in the celebration party. The box office in the domestic market has been booming all the way, and Chen Sheng has contributed a lot to the publicity.

However, due to filming, Chen Sheng was unable to go to the United States to attend the appointment.On the way home from the airport, he went online to read Star 3 movie reviews.Since it was released, he has been busy with everything, and now he has time to pay attention to this.

I don't know if other actors will pay attention to film reviews, but he will browse through them every time a new film is released.Film critics are always positive and negative, and he will find out his shining points and breakthrough points from it, which is also one of the driving forces for his progress over the years.

After debuting for many years, Chen Sheng is no longer a little fresh meat who would cry after being scolded a few times on the Internet.The movie reviews he read were selected by his old fans for many years, or the more pertinent movie critics he was familiar with in the film and television circle, and he didn't even bother to read some of the keyboard man's reviews.

Chen Sheng saw one written by Gu Chao among the many film reviews.Gu Chao still bears the name of the president of the fan club, and published a film review on Weibo, detailing the new roles Chen Sheng has challenged and the new breakthroughs he has achieved in the past three years.

The article is written eloquently and sincerely.

After Chen Sheng finished reading, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.He didn't tell Gu Chao that he was coming back today, and when he got home, he saw Gu Chengjiang again at the door.

Gu Chengjiang lost a lot of weight, his eye sockets were sunken, and he looked several years older.

Chen Sheng got out of the car and greeted him.

He stared at a pair of bloodshot eyes, and asked angrily, "Why don't you let me see my grandson? Can I give you all the money? You let me see my grandson!"

Chen Sheng pretended not to know, "Uncle, I went out to film some time ago. Is Gu Chao not allowing you to see the children?"

Gu Chengjiang said angrily, "Don't pretend. My son used to be so obedient. You must not let me see him, so he treated me like this."

Chen Sheng didn't like to hear these words, so he turned around and wanted to leave.

Seeing this, Gu Chengjiang finally gave in, "I withdraw the lawsuit. I just want to see my grandson. As long as you let me see my grandson, I will... listen to you from now on."

Chen Sheng's footsteps stopped, and he turned his head to look at Gu Chengjiang.

Because Gu Chengjiang couldn't see his grandson, he didn't think about tea or eat all day long, and threatened Gu Chao with a hunger strike.In the end, Gu Chao had no choice but to release him, but he was not allowed to get close to the two children.

Gu Chengjiang wanted to hear his grandchildren call him grandpa, and he almost lost his mind.

"Come in with me." Chen Sheng made an inviting gesture to him.

Gu Chengjiang followed with strides.

Chen Sheng didn't doubt that his words were false, and with Gu Chengjiang's face-saving personality, he shouldn't contradict his words.

When the two of them entered, only Gu Chao and the children were at home.After the two babies were weaned, Chen's father and Chen's mother went back to school to continue teaching, and went out early.

The two babies have been learning to walk for a while.Gu Chao was wearing home clothes, squatting on the foam board, calling Rou Rou, "Come to Dad."

My elder brother is called Duoduo, and Duoduo has learned to walk a long time ago.Now I can walk slowly without an adult's support.Flesh is not good, he is timid and lazy, and he still crawls around all day long.As long as the adults don't hold his hand, he is determined not to take a step.

After Chen Sheng entered the room, he put his luggage aside and called to his younger son, "Fatty, come here."

Hearing Chen Sheng's voice, the little guy turned around slowly, then stared at Chen Sheng for a while, and crawled towards Chen Sheng quickly.

Chen Sheng smiled helplessly and dotingly, and bent over to hug his youngest son, "I've been out for half a month, why are you still crawling on the ground?"

Gu Chao stood up with a smile, "I don't want to learn. I'm playing tricks."

Gu Chengjiang was wearing shoe covers in the entrance, and when he heard Gu Chao's voice, his body froze for a moment.They have been father and son for so many years, he has never heard Gu Chao speak to him in such a gentle voice, he was shocked in his heart.

When he saw the smile on Gu Chao's face, he was even more shocked. Gu Chao's smile was soft and bright, and he didn't look like his son anymore.

Gu Chao took two steps forward before seeing Gu Chengjiang behind Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng took the initiative to explain, "I brought Uncle Gu in."

Gu Chengjiang pretended to be calm and said, "I'll come and see the children." He also brought a lot of gifts for the two children.

The man was brought in by Chen Sheng, Gu Chao couldn't drive his father out.

Gu Chengjiang handed the gifts for his grandchildren to Gu Chao, then rubbed his hands and stood next to Chen Sheng, with a embarrassed face, "Can I hug him?"

Chen Sheng hugged Rourou to him, "I give you a hug."

Gu Chengjiang's heart was full of joy.Holding his grandson in his arms, he kept saying, "Call me grandpa, quickly call me grandpa. Meaty, call me grandpa. Grandpa will wrap you a big red envelope."

Chen Sheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.Gu Chengjiang is still Gu Chengjiang, always giving money.

It's a pity that Rourou doesn't know what a red envelope is, staring at the strange old man with big black eyes.

Because it was Chen Sheng who handed him over to Gu Chengjiang, Rourou didn't cry.Normally, the little guy doesn't have such a good temper.

Chen Sheng walked to the TV to see his eldest son.He took the elder son's hand, walked up to Gu Chengjiang, and said, "Duoduo, this is also grandpa. It's called grandpa."

Duoduo and Gu Chao are almost carved out of the same mold, not to mention the resemblance.He looked at Chen Sheng, then at Gu Chengjiang, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered "Grandpa".

When Rourou heard his elder brother calling grandpa, he also called out.

I saw Gu Chengjiang's tears gushing out of his eyes in a blink of an eye.He handed the meat to Chen Sheng, and hurried into the bathroom.

Gu Chao stood there silently, looking in the direction of the bathroom.It was also the first time in his life that he saw Gu Chengjiang's tears, which were more precious than crocodile tears.

Gu Chengjiang sorted out his emotions in the bathroom before coming out.He took out two red envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng first said politely, "The children are not short of money."

Gu Chengjiang's tone was slightly choked, "Grandpa gave it. You must take it."

Only then did Chen Sheng put away the red envelope.

Gu Chengjiang squatted on the ground, holding a grandson in one hand, and took out his mobile phone to record videos for the two grandsons.

The old man's face was crying for a while, and smiling for a while.

The aunt in the family in the middle wanted to feed the children water, and the old man took the initiative to take over the job and carefully fed the children water.

Usually around ten o'clock, the two little babies are going to bed.Today, someone was playing with them, and the two of them were not sleepy anymore. They insisted on sculpting in the living room, and Gu Chengjiang took a lot of videos and photos, smiling happily.

Until eleven o'clock, the aunt at home reminded, "It's time for the children to go to bed."

Gu Chengjiang reluctantly stood up, and said to his son and daughter-in-law, "Then I'll come back tomorrow."

Before they could reply, Gu Chengjiang said to the two grandsons, "Grandpa will come over early tomorrow to accompany you."

Chen Sheng and Gu Chao went out together and sent Gu Chengjiang to the car.

When returning, Gu Chao asked Chen Sheng, "Why?"

Chen Sheng smiled, "If you are angry with you, you will be angry. But I don't want you father and son to quarrel. Xiaochao, we are about the same age, and I have no more experience than you. But I have acted in too many joys and sorrows. I have experienced the pain of being separated many times. Some people may be hateful when they are alive, but their departure will still cause great pain to the living. Besides, your father...is a bit ugly when he speaks, yes But the blood relationship is extremely concerned. You are too."

"Thank you." Gu Chao suddenly hugged Chen Sheng from behind, and whispered in his ear, "Meeting you is my greatest luck." It was Chen Sheng who rescued him from his original family, and then took another step Let him ease the relationship with his father.He originally thought that Chen Sheng would hate his father, but Chen Sheng didn't.Chen Sheng not only tolerated the mistakes he made, but also accepted his father regardless of past suspicions.

Gu Chao swore in his heart that he would never let Chen Sheng down in this life.

But what Chen Sheng thought in his heart was that he finally solved the big problem of Gu Dae.Seeing Father Gu's expression of gratitude towards him made me inexplicably happy.To deal with the enemy, either kill him, or grab his weakness and make him give in completely.

Chen Sheng chose the latter, and used his two children to subdue Father Gu.And it's two birds with one stone, even Gu Chao is grateful to him.Chen Sheng felt that he handled it pretty well, it was much better than tearing up his face and making the whole city know about it.
