After the long deep winter, it is the beginning of spring.

The time has come to February.

New Year's Day has just passed.

The movie "The Bottom" has been in theaters for more than two months, and its box office revenue has reached more than 800 million, nearly 900 million.

Many theaters are very generous and still reserve a considerable number of films for this film. On the rating website, the total number of people who have rated the film has reached 300,000. In this case, the film still maintains a high score of 8.5.

It can be seen that the audience loves it.

This movie, or rather this movie project for Hashimoto Ai, actually didn’t go very smoothly all the way. At first, due to the script, the famous director Jiro Nakamori terminated the contract, causing rumors to spread.

Later, with the promotion of Hashimoto Ai, the film project found Gu Xue, an animation supervisor who had never filmed before.

This sounds nonsense...

Asking an animation supervisor to put out a fire sounds like asking a bicycle repairman to repair a motor vehicle. Although they are both repairs, they are not the same thing at all.

That is to say, Gu Xue, whose previous phenomenal works have been bombarded, inexplicably gave people a sense of trust, so most people still didn't say anything too extreme. Even if they didn't trust him, they only mentioned a few words.

But then the script was drastically changed and there was no news that the movie would start filming. Many viewers were really worried about the movie.

When the trailer comes out.

I learned that the movie is an inspirational film about college entrance exams, and it also features Ai Hashimoto’s costume.

More and more people are openly expressing their pessimism.

Many people in the film industry even bluntly said that this was a hyped film.

Everyone became worried, fearing that Gu Xue might not take the photo well.

But after the movie is officially released...

The situation has reversed again...

Everyone is bragging about how successful Gu Xue's transformation as an animation supervisor is, and how rare such inspirational movies are. Before the movie was released, it was considered to be decisive evidence that the movie might not be good. Gu Xue's status as a new director suddenly became

Blow some.

People in the film industry were calm at first, but after "The Bottom" had been in theaters for more than two months, received rave reviews, and the box office was close to one billion, their attitude changed.

Eighty degree turn.

Even though this is only one billion, it seems to be less than those blockbusters on Earth that easily cost billions, or even less than Gu Xue's "Pacific Rim: Monsters".

But after all, there are only a handful of films that can easily earn billions, and even if they exist, not everyone is qualified to get a piece of the pie.

A billion box office is already a lot for a new director. Considering the film's investment of less than 20 million and the film's reputation? Many people are jealous of the income.

so.

Although Gu Xue said that she would only make a movie, in fact, there was an endless stream of people who wanted to ask her to make a movie. Two months after "The Bottom" was released, there was an endless stream of people who gave her money to make a movie.

Moreover, these people’s requirements are quite low.

I will never interfere with the movie. It doesn’t matter if the movie is a real person or not, it can be an animated movie.

I even wished it was an animated movie, after all, Gu Xue had previously made a movie called "Pacific Rim: Monsters".

Of course? There is another type of person, the boss of an idol agency.

For them? Gu Xue is also a piece of cake.

They are more fanatical than the former, after all, the former also has to make movies for Qian Guxue.

The latter is almost a business without capital.

Look at Hashimoto Ai’s popularity.

Although Hashimoto Ai was very popular before she made the movie, it is obvious that the movie has increased her popularity.

Brokerage companies, big and small, all dream of giving their idols to Gu Xue, hoping that they can be selected by Gu Xue to make movies.

Some bosses even send introductions and photos of their idols to YUKI Studio.

It’s like Gu Xue choosing a concubine...

Gu Xue heard this news from Yu Jingyao every day.

It really feels magical.

Of course, the success of the movie "The Bottom"? Besides Gu Xue, the biggest beneficiary is the idol Hashimoto Ai.

Although when the trailer was first released, Hashimoto Ai caused some criticism because of her dress.

Some extreme fans even said that Gu Xue ruined Hashimoto Ai's innocent image.

But like Gu Xue said.

In this movie, the audience can clearly distinguish the difference between the actors and the characters they play.

Although Hashimoto Ai's hot girl dress in the early stage caused controversy, her hard work in the later stage also attracted countless fans.

Movies are an art of light and shadow, and Gu Xue shows her most beautiful side and most charming points.

Her image in the movie did not affect her popularity, it even made her successful.

From idols to actors, this is a huge gap for many idols.

Gu Xue carried her and walked over...

During this period, there was an endless stream of people inviting Gu Xue, and there was also an endless stream of people inviting Hashimoto Ai to star in movies, advertising endorsements, and commercial performances.

Her net worth began to rise slowly.

Hashimoto Ai's feelings about this are not obvious yet.

Because she is stupid.

But her agent, Ms. Endo, and the agency behind her, are very clear.

A few days after the movie was released, Ms. Endo made seven or eight phone calls, thanking Gu Xue, and indirectly asking Gu Xue if she had the idea of ​​continuing to make live-action movies. It can be said to be a crazy hint.

And two months later.

That is today.

After Hashimoto Ai's intensive communication due to the movie finally came to an end, Ms. Endo took Hashimoto Ai directly to the YUKI studio again.

…

"Thank you, Supervisor Gu Xue."

Ms. Endo held Gu Xue's hand, and changed from the unfamiliar and polite attitude when they first met, with a grateful and sincere expression on her face.

Hashimoto Ai, on the other hand, is quite calm and is playing with the cat...

"You have said it many times, Ms. Endo, there is really no need to do this..."

Gu Xue was a little helpless.

"Yes. If it weren't for you, Ai Yi would probably still be in deep trouble, and I would still be looking for a director to take over, so we wouldn't be in this situation now."

Ms. Endo shook her head and retorted, but she also saw that Gu Xue didn't like shaking hands, so she let go of her without leaving a trace while speaking.

"That can be regarded as mutual achievement, since you also pay me my salary anyway." Gu Xue joked.

After hearing this, Ms. Endo laughed dumbly and shook her head.

What is that salary compared to the income you create?

However, Ms. Endo did not delve too deeply into this issue.

After Gu Xue concluded, Ms. Endo changed the topic at the right time.

"By the way, Supervisor Gu Xue, in addition to thanking you for coming here this time, I also have a question to ask you... Recently, many people want to ask Ai Yi to make a movie. Do you think this should be the next step? If so,

What type should I pick up?”

"...You should know this issue best."

"I want to hear from you as a professional."

"Professional is not...well, let me just say whatever you want, and you can listen to whatever you want. Hashimoto Ai is not suitable to be an actress. Her acting skills are really bad. Unless you want to overdraw her commercial value, if not, try your best."

It’s better not to accept random films unless you meet a director who is very good at coaching.”

"Well..." Ms. Endo listened attentively, and then nodded, "I have the same idea, but... if the popularity of idols does not advance, it will retreat. I think you are quite good at training actors..."

"..."

Gu Xue smiled helplessly, "Ms. Endo, you don't have to make insinuating remarks. I really don't want to take the director's job anymore."

Ms. Endo smiled awkwardly when she heard Gu Xue's words, but she quickly put it away.

"Then... I'll take the liberty to ask, why?"

"I'm the animation supervisor. Of course I'm doing it for the sake of the animation, um, and these resentful women-like audiences."

Gu Xue raised her phone and showed Ms. Endo the comment section of the tweet she had posted a few months ago.

The comment area can be said to be full of resentment...

Then, Gu Xue exited the comment area and asked her to read her latest tweets.

[Next, YUKI Studio will have a new animated film released, and yes, I am supervising it! 】

This tweet was posted a few hours ago.

Comment section below the tweet.

The atmosphere is like Chinese New Year...

The comment with the most likes is this one, Gu Xue, you are worthy of being mine... (you know the fear of being blacklisted)!!!
Chapter completed!
