There was no need for Lev and his friends to have a testimony from a school bus student. The next day, a fresh scandal spread quickly in the school:

"Phil Collins' daughter and VIY are in a good mood!"

It was like a deep water bomb exploded, and the boys and girls were talking about it, and everything they said. The boys were either envious or jealous. Lily was recognized as the next high school beauty. Ye Wei was lucky! And the girls were even more complicated. Some people laughed at Lily for being hungry, and half-tongued and half-cool Ye Wei was not a hot item; some people scolded her, and when she saw that Wei was famous, they immediately posted it, not relying on her own identity! Bitch!

Of course, there are also people who express their blessings, especially Ye Wei's friends, who are very happy.

The scandal spread so quickly that even the teachers knew, but Harvard-West Lake does not manage students' dates and love, so nothing happened. It was just that they were not optimistic about it. This was just because the teenagers had too many hormones. One week or one month later, let's take a look? None of my friends.

Only a very small number of people know the fact: the two are not dating.

I don’t know what Lily Collins thinks, but Ye Wei really has no time to care about these things now because there are more important things.

Today is Friday, and "Wedding Time is Coming" has already landed in a theater at midnight at midnight!

The independent film, which costs 2 million yuan to release 180,000 yuan, aims to receive more than $10,000 in "13 Cinema" in the "Beverly Center" before it will be screened in the second week.

Calculated as a movie ticket of 6 yuan, 1,667 tickets are required to be sold.

13 Cinema has 13 audience screening halls, located in the shopping center, with enough people and advanced hardware equipment. Although it belongs to the second round theater, it is not the third round and it is lively. It seems to be an honor for a film that is released at its own expense.

This is what makes Kevin Thomas a clever trick. The film is released here. Investors will definitely be satisfied. They also think that he has the ability and do his best.

But Ye Wei knew that "The Wedding Date is Coming" was actually not suitable for release here, because in such a lively place, there are too many choices for viewers!

The second round of theaters are all films that are sold in the premiere or are well-received. They will not introduce a bad movie to play. This makes it difficult for viewers who are not heading straight to their target to notice the unknown films on the poster wall. "The Wedding Day is Coming" is premiering here? Well, what is that?

On the contrary, if it is distributed in a single-hall theater in a remote location, it would be different whether it makes money or not, but the box office would be better.

Entering 13 Cinema is like entering a arena, with a lot of other well-known videos competing for audiences from you.

1667 movie tickets are only a box office for masterpieces like "The Lord of the Rings"; but for "The Wedding Day is Coming"... an astronomical figure.

Everyone in the Ye family stayed at home as usual in the early morning and did not make a special trip to check the attendance rate, but it shouldn't be better. There was no news from the cinema.

13 Cinema won’t care. Anyway, it has already collected 6,000 yuan of rent for a room for a week. In addition to charging the necessary screening fees, it will not share any box office share. The theater manager never thought that there would be another group of laymen who were just trying to do it.

After all, the results of "The Wedding Date is Coming" are too important. At this time, even though he is mentally prepared, Ye Wei has a faint hope in his heart. He has not performed at midnight and cannot be sentenced to death immediately. It will be better during the day, and tonight is the time for the decisive battle!

During the day, Ye Wei spent this mood that was rippling in peace.

After nightfall, the Ye family and his family went to Beverly Center together.

There were many people who acted at the same time. The screening from 20:45 to 22:15 tonight was an agreed "screening ceremony". Ye Haogen's colleagues and friends, relatives and friends of other investors, and Ye Wei's best friends... were all invited, and hundreds of people were prepared to support the show without having to buy tickets.

No matter what the box office results will be, the Ye family Volkswagen SUV is in full bloom. Four of them are dressed up and there is a red gift knot hanging on Toto's neck.

Ye Duo happily sang children's songs, his fleshy little face was full of a romantic smile, and he clapped from time to time: "Our movie is released, our movie is released!"

Infected by his daughter's happiness, Ye Haogen and Gu Qiao also smiled. Ye Haogen shouted like a child: "We are movie tycoons!" Toto shook his tail and barked: "Wang!"

Ye Wei, who was sitting on the left side of the back row, looked at his family and smiled. Everything would be fine, I promise...

When the Ye family arrived at the ticket hall of the 13th Cinema, it was just eight o'clock in the evening. Before the guests arrived, several groups of investors had arrived.

They also invested money in it with real money, of course they were concerned about the release of the film and wondered why Kevin Thomas was fired. They knew very little about it.

One of them, a middle-aged convenience store owner named Mike Schwartz, stared at his bull's eyes and asked Ye Haogen with a forced intent: "I have 100,000 in it. I am qualified to know what happened, right? I invested money because Thomas is a professional producer, so it's better now..."

"Mike, this matter is very complicated...Thomas..." Ye Haogen was a little confused and irritated.

"Actually it's very simple. Everything I have been messed up by that bitch, I'm completely fucking him!"

Ye Haogen turned his head and saw Ye Wei walking towards him in a deep voice. Schwartz heard his rude answer, as if he was very satisfied with his appetite and nodded slightly.

Ye Wei said seriously: "What we have to do now is to clean up the mess. Uncle Mike, you know everything you should know, and you can't help if you know more. The previous investment contract was clearly written and you will see profits and losses within five years! So you don't have to worry, it will be fine."

"How could it be good?" Schwartz frowned.

"I don't know yet, but don't forget that our family invested 1.8 million! If we say who should be the most nervous now is us! Have you seen us cry like babies?"

Ye Wei said and laughed, "Why, that 100,000 made you so scared that you wet your pants?" Schwartz immediately laughed: "Yes, I scared my shit out." Ye Wei punched him and said with a smile: "It's not OK, just retract your shit and watch a movie happily tonight, our movie."

"Okay, listen to you, but listen to you." Schwartzle nodded with a smile.

"Haha, hehe..." Ye Haogen on the side was also smiling, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at his son with a relieved look, but he really grew up...

As time approached 20:30, guests arrived one after another, each with their own reception, while Ye Wei welcomed four good friends and then walked to the screening hall with a laugh.

"Brother, look at this, Beverly Center!" Lev walked and looked around with emotion, "Home movies are released here! This is so cool. I really envy you. I have told my old guy to invest in movies, but he is just a wealthy slave, and Abagong is better than him!"

His family is in a book business and has a bookstore, which is a little money.

"Yes, my dad is the same, Brother Wei, your dad is so cool!" Bud praised while eating popcorn. His family operates a small restaurant.

Chen Nuo and Colwin also nodded. Who doesn’t yearn for movies?

"He is very cool, a dream chaser." Ye Wei murmured with a smile, "The cutest dream chaser."

When they walked into the gray-lighted screening room, Lev, who kept talking, stopped. Bard and the other two were stunned. In the hall that could accommodate hundreds of audiences, there were only some guests sitting in the front row, with a few scattered people sitting in the middle, and the other seats were empty. There were only a dozen ticket-buying audiences in the audience. I don’t know if they were watching the movie or having a tryst...

This attendance rate seems to be very bleak...

"It's not that the show has not started yet! Wait a little longer and there will be more audiences." Lev forced a laugh.

"Yes, yes!" Bud agreed repeatedly, and Colewin and Chen Nuo also cast encouraging eyes on Ye Wei.

"Brothers, thank you, I'm fine, watch the movie!"

At the same time, in front of the poster wall of the cinema ticket hall, audiences with no targets came and went, making choices for the next two hours of entertainment.

A young white couple noticed the poster of "The Wedding Time is Coming" in the corner: a couple in wedding dresses held a knife in their hands, and there was a circle of guests around them. Everyone was in horror and watched the huge wedding cake fall to the ground.

The fonts of the cast and crew names on the poster are very small and can be seen with a magnifying glass, but an advertising slogan is very huge and has occupied all the attention of the audience:

"The most hilarious wedding movie in history! The wedding date is approaching, but are you really ready?"

In fact, the earliest promotional poster of "The Wedding Time is Coming" was a couple watching the sunset sweetly on the Florida Beach. The current poster was redesigned by Ye Wei overnight these days. However, because there is no poster material and it is an image taken from the image, it looks a bit rough and awkward, which is impossible.

"It looks quite interesting, George, is this one?"

"What a joke, who are these actors? Don't know any of them, forget it, have you not watched enough wedding movies in the past two years? Or watch "Kill Bill"?"

"No, I don't want to watch violent movies, or watch... "Rock Campus"? It seems to be very interesting."

"Not bad, I heard it's pretty good. A friend recommended it to me and said that Jack Black's performance was so handsome!"

The couple chose the movie and headed to the ticket window, two tickets to "Rock Campus".

Many viewers are like them. Although they think the scene of the wedding cake falling to the ground is interesting, it is not enough to make them pay $6. Why? The director and producer who can't see the name clearly, the famous actor, and the movie that has never been heard of... It feels like a box of Coca-Cola mixed with a bottle of homemade sugar water, and they are not interested.

Of course, there are also audiences attracted to it, such as a white family of three, parents and little girls, who are excited and ready to laugh.

The three walked into the screening room and were surprised that the blockbusters of their seats were vacant. But well, they chose the best middle position to sit down. The trailer of other movies was being played on the screen, and there were still a few minutes before the opening.

The front rows of seats are the most lively places in the hall. The guests are all here, and laughing and laughing at this time adds vitality to the hall.

The four of the Ye family sat in the middle of the first row, Duoduo hugged Toto, and Gu Qiao was taking care of him, chuckling with a gentle smile.

Ye Wei's attention was on his father's side. He could see that his father was very nervous. He was about to step on the rainbow bridge that had been dreaming of for many years. He wanted to run wildly, but was afraid of failing...

His heartstrings were also tense. As for that nightmare, these days were critical times, so he must not let his father get into trouble.

"With, do you know?" Ye Haogen suddenly sighed, looked at the big screen ahead, and said with emotion: "When I was a child, I dreamed of such a day! Although "The Wedding Time is Coming" was not produced or directed by me, I feel... my dream has come true.

Some people say that the older a person is, the smaller his dreams are. I think, maybe it is because older people have hope in addition to dreams, right?"

He turned to look at his son, with pride in his smile, and said, "I have thought about it seriously. I am not a film material, nor good at socializing, and I am old, so I should be my dentist. But you are different, but you have talent. If you have a dream of film, you must chase it. Dad will support you with all your strength."

Suddenly, Ye Wei's eyes were blurred with tears. He understood that in that dream, it was not only "The Marriage is Coming", but also him.

This is the answer to another question that has always troubled him. Why did the optimistic and cheerful father get angry and suffer from a cerebral hemorrhage? Because it is not just a huge loss in investment and a shattered dream, but the more important reason is that he has no hope...

He could not see hope in his son. How could that little prodigal son who was willful and naughty can become a talent? How could he carry the banner of his father? He could not see it.

But now, it’s different. The father saw hope and it was on his son.

"I can do it." Ye Wei pursed his slightly trembling mouth and nodded and choked: "I can do it, dad, I can do it."

"Son, no matter what, I want you to understand." Ye Haogen patted his son's shoulder, "I will always be proud of you."
