Chapter 1621 Guo'er as a Cook

"Mom, what's the matter with calling me back in such a hurry?"

After getting out of the car, the first thing Xiao Qi did when he entered the house was to ask loudly.

Chen Yulian, who was sitting on the sofa and eating melon seeds, gave her son a blank look, "Why, my mother misses you and told you to come back for dinner, can't you?"

Seeing that there seemed to be something wrong, Xiao Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately flattered: "How can you, you are my own mother, when will you call me, won't I come back? Um... what is this?" Taste? Why are you cooking at home today? Which chef is it?"

What he smelled was a strong smell of food coming from the kitchen.

Chen Yulian's cooking skills are mediocre, not as good as Xiao Xu's, so when she comes to Daoyin, she usually wants to eat something, so she calls the cafeteria in advance, and the food will be delivered when it's time to eat .

If any guests came, one or two chefs would come to help cook the meals on the spot, Xiao Qi thought it would be the same this time.

"Hey, you won't go see it yourself?" Chen Yulian suddenly laughed.

Seeing her smile, Xiao Qi suddenly felt that something good had happened, and hastily opened the kitchen door in two or three steps, but what he saw was a charming beauty, who was concentrating on stir-frying the dishes in the pot.

"Guo'er?" Xiao Qi was startled, he couldn't believe his eyes: "Why are you here?"

"Why can't I be here?" Qiao Guo'er pursed her lips and smiled, "My lord, when you see this concubine, shouldn't you be more enthusiastic... Mmm~~"

After a long time, the two separated. Qiao Guoer, whose mouth was a little red and swollen, was panting. He could only watch Xiao Qi take over his job, stirring up and down.

"I called Sister Hong the day before yesterday, and I thought you guys were going to continue to promote." Xiao Qi said with a smile, "I haven't had time to congratulate you, Huaguo's first movie heroine who is about to break 1 billion. Investors!"

"It's not here yet! The second week's statistics for Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia haven't come out yet." Qiao Guoer said modestly, but her face was full of smiles. "But as of yesterday, the box office has already exceeded 600 million!"

The total domestic box office of "If You Are the One 1" is 560 million yuan, and the global box office is 900 million yuan, which has set a record for all Chinese movies.

"If You Are the One 2" has so many strong alliances, and with the spring breeze of the first film, everyone has been full of expectations for it from the very beginning.

After discussing with Qiao Guoer, Director of Operations Xiao Jiawei, directly took 60 million publicity funds and started various promotions from the beginning of December, and started on December 24th. The main creators of the film crew carried out small-scale fan meeting promotions in various places without stopping, basically going to every important ticket warehouse.

And everyone's efforts have paid off. With excellent scripts, excellent production, superb performances, overwhelming publicity, and a high production schedule, Huaguo's screens have been shrouded in "If You Are the One 2" throughout the Christmas and New Year period. "Among the strong aura, following the box office of 76 million on the first day, it also remained above 65 million on the second and third day, which shocked everyone's attention.

"I've never imagined that making movies can actually make so much money!"——Commented by Liu Fei, editor-in-chief of "Film Weekly".

Entering January, although the number of filming sessions is constantly declining. But since there are seven days in the Golden Week in January, people still have many choices to watch movies, so the box office of "If You Are the One 2" is still increasing by no less than 30 million a day.

Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asian markets also started showing on Christmas Day, and the total box office in the first week exceeded 300 million yuan. Even the "Hollywood Herald" in the United States reported the news. It is definitely not a problem to think that "If You Are the One 2" entered the box office club of 1 billion RMB.

Also because of this matter, some publishers in Europe and the United States also ran over to buy the rights to broadcast "If You Are the One 2".

Although the price will not be very high, and it is a buyout, at any rate, one or two million US dollars can be credited in bits and pieces—two or three million to buy the broadcasting rights of a Huaguo movie. It has long been a thing of the past, and now with the support of the mainland market, filmmakers in Huaguo are much tougher than before.

It happened that the cooking was done, and seeing that his father hadn't come back, Xiao Qi hugged the fragrant queen sister, and after another burst of intimacy, Qiao Guoer was almost out of breath, and then let go of this girl.

"Honey, do you know how much our kiwi movie theaters earned in total during the Christmas and New Year's holidays?" Qiao Guoer asked, blinking her beautiful big eyes. Although she didn't care about money, she still wanted such good grades. A bit arrogant.

"Let's think about it...about 100 million?" Xiao Qi said a more reliable number.

"How can there be so little!" Qiao Guoer pinched him, and said happily: "The net profit is 280 million! The average attendance rate is 48%, which ranks first in the country's theaters! Now I believe that relying on Movie theaters can also make a lot of money!"

Now Kiwi Cinemas has built a total of 808 screens in 23 first- and second-tier cities, fully accounting for 22% of the total number of screens in the country. Judging from the 46% box office share, the income for such ten days is really high!

But Xiao Qi prepared 200 movie theaters for the Kiwi Cinema Line, with a total number of 1,800 screens, plus the second imax theater line, the screen size of the entire theater line should exceed 3,000!

At that time, it happened to be the era when Huaguo movies were developing rapidly, and Qiao Guoer would know what making money was.

But Xiao Qi also reminded her, "Guo'er, the busiest time of year is summer and Christmas, and you may lose money in the off-season in the future, so you can't cry!"

"No way!" Qiao Guoer glared at Xiao Qi, and said, "Am I the kind of person who can't bear blows? My wife has been working hard alone for so many years, why haven't I seen the ups and downs?"

"Yes, my Guo'er is naturally the most powerful!" Xiao Qi looked at her delicate appearance, and wanted to stretch his mouth again, but he didn't want to hear the sound of the door opening outside, Qiao Guo'er quickly pushed him away, cleaned up. He took off his clothes and walked out dignifiedly.

"Uncle Xiao!"

Hearing this shout, the travel-worn Xiao Xu was taken aback for a moment, and when he looked up, he saw Qiao Guoer and Xiao Qi.

Not to mention anything else, this kid is still very lucky! It seems that the genes of our Xiao family are good!

Xiao Xu was proud first, and then smiled, "Hehe, our big star has come home. Aunt Chen dragged me to watch your movie two days ago! It's very good! It's beautiful and warm. , and relaxed, it is suitable for all ages!"

Chen Yulian hastily lowered her head and pinched her palm, otherwise she couldn't help laughing out loud, obviously this was her viewing testimonial, her husband fell asleep not long after entering the theater, and now he is running backwards to brag!

Qiao Guoer was very happy to hear that, and smiled sweetly: "I was afraid that Uncle Xiao would not like me to make those movies and TV shows!"

It is a well-known fact that wealthy families have many rules.

Although the Xiao family is just a new wealthy family, the scale of this wealthy family is unimaginable to outsiders. From the property that Xiao Qi bought for herself, Qiao Guoer knows that the outside world's evaluation of Xiao Qi's assets of 300 billion US dollars is absolutely huge. underestimation.

She doesn't care about money at all, and she is not afraid of what others think of her, a woman from a commoner background, but only her future parents-in-law, if she has a bad impression of herself, it will be very bad!

"Everyone is serving the people, there is nothing wrong with it." Xiao Xu sat at the dining table, drinking the boiled water brought by Chen Yulian, "In addition to "If You Are the One", I also like to watch the two TV series you starred in, " Palace Lock Heart Jade and Palace Lock Bead Curtain are both very good, they are relaxing and enjoyable to watch! I was bothered enough at work, but if I watch some Qiong Yao dramas when I go home, I want to smash the TV! Or Our own TV dramas are down-to-earth, you can rest refreshed after watching them!"

"Uncle, as long as you like it." Qiao Guoer smiled contentedly while helping Xiao Qi arrange the meals.

"Your uncle is not lying about this. I have been watching it for the past few days. Although it is intermittent, even if it is disconnected, those plots are very relaxed and interesting." Chen Yulian also praised Qiao Guoer: "From now on, you will Make more TV dramas like this, just like "Han Zhu Ge Ge" back then. Don't make spy dramas, there are new spy dramas every day, it makes me want to vomit!"

"Giggle~~"

Qiao Guoer laughed softly, "Our company will continue with a youth drama in March, besides me starring in it, one of them is a female star from Hong Kong! As for the future dramas, we will still mainly focus on costume dramas. Focusing on fashion dramas, this is the characteristic of our new company, and we will not blindly follow the trend."

"Well, Guo'er, you think very well. You must stick to your ideals to be successful." Xiao Xu praised, "Now the atmosphere in the entertainment industry has also begun to become impetuous. You must do things in a down-to-earth manner to be successful." Well done! Look at Xiao Qi, it’s nothing more than his electronics industry, but now there are a lot of things such as electronic malls, logistics and express delivery, and you don’t have to worry about choking on them!”

Xiao Qi happened to bring the last chicken soup to the table, and said innocently: "If you praise anyone, you have to hurt me. People who don't know think I'm such a fool!"

"hehe!"

Xiao Xu doesn't think Xiao Qi is a dude, he has always been proud of Xiao Qi, it's just that people from the parents' generation are always afraid that their children will do wrong things, and it has become a habit to beat them from time to time.

"Okay, no more talk, let's have dinner!" Xiao Xu raised his glass, "Come on, let's have a rare reunion dinner, cheers!"

"cheers!"

When the four cups clinked, Qiao Guoer's beautiful eyes curled up in laughter. The words "reunion dinner" sounded so heartwarming! (to be continued..)
