"Yes, she is not an insider, she is from the Qingyun Sect."

Judging from Zhou Xun's follow-up question, Jiang Xiao was 100% sure that the other party had no idea what "Zhu Xian" was. For a moment, he became a little playful and responded seriously.

"Ah? What kind of family is Qing?"

Zhou Xun, who was a little confused when he heard it, felt like he was getting more confused the more he listened.

"Qingyunmen, the blue of the sky, the clouds of the clouds, belong to the Taoist sect, Xueqi..."

"No, Taoism, that's a nun? Can nuns fall in love now?"

Before Jiang Xiao could finish speaking, Zhou Xun subconsciously thought of nuns when he heard the word Taoism.

"Uh...then that, forget it, I'm not kidding you, Qingyun Sect is a fictional sect of cultivating immortals in the novel, and Lu Xueqi is also a fictional character."

Shocked by this sentence, Jiang Xiao had no choice but to give up and reveal the truth.

"Novel thing...I, Jiang Xiao, handsome guy Jiang, you are all boring. Really, are you taking advantage of me for fun?"

Zhou Xun, who suddenly learned the truth, rolled his eyes vigorously, then stared at a certain man, feeling the urge to reach out and hit him.

"I can't say that. I just want you to understand a truth. It's better not to be too gossipy. Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Look, the director is coming!"

In his sight, Cao Baoping was indeed walking this way. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jiang Xiao immediately changed the subject.

"Forget it, just wait for me."

Zhou Xun, who was really helpless about someone's rogue behavior, saw that the director really came over, probably to arrange filming matters. After letting go of the harsh words, she finally said nothing more.

…………

"Jiang Xiao, Jiang Xiao, ah~!!!"

Listening to the shouts from the crowd of onlookers, Jiang Xiao was a little helpless. Recently, he was filming on location every day, and it was on Chuncheng Street, which is a place with a relatively dense flow of people.

Therefore, he was surrounded by people. Many Chuncheng fans came to stay every day, as if they wanted to accompany him to finish the filming. This somewhat affected the progress of the filming. Even the staff tried to dissuade him, but at most it was effective.

It will take effect in a while.

For example, an unexpected incident occurred yesterday. A female fan suddenly walked into the camera while he was filming and emotionally expressed her love for him.

In addition, it was so sudden that Jiang Xiao almost got kicked out. Maybe the news of "Jiang Xiao kicked a fan off the set" will make headlines.

At this moment, the scene that was just done was also blocked by the crowd of onlookers and the escape route was not smooth. The scene that originally required walking on the street did not have much room for performance.

"Oh my God, these little girls really look like they're going crazy. Jiang Xiao, this is your fault. Can you go and fix it? They're so bad that I'm out of shape!"

"Okay, I have to take action personally!"

At a certain moment, after hearing Zhou Xun's somewhat helpless words, Jiang Xiao himself, who was also aware of this and intended to solve it, stopped murmuring.

Dang even ran to the staff to get a loudspeaker, and strode quickly to the crowd of onlookers and fans who were separated by the staff.

Then, without any hesitation, amidst the excited shouts of fans, he lowered his hand and said: "Hello everyone, I have a small favor to ask you for now, can you do it?"

"good!"

"Can!"

As soon as Jiang Xiao's words rang out, fans naturally cheered and responded.

"Well, everyone knows that I am currently filming, so I will need a little cooperation. Just for a while, everyone will follow the instructions of the staff, okay?"

"Okay~!!!"

"Thank you all in advance. How about this? If you cooperate well and I can finish work early, how about I sign autographs for everyone?"

Coercion obviously doesn't work, so Jiang Xiao can only use inducements and plans to use signatures as benefits.

"Okay~!!!"

Hearing the signature, the fans' voices became louder.

"Then please!"

Jiang Xiao, who bowed slightly, saw that he had almost finished speaking. After a word, he waved neatly and returned to the set.

In short, the effect of his personal appearance was indeed good, at least he was much more cooperative than before, which can be regarded as letting the "Li Mi's Conjecture" film crew breathe a sigh of relief.

In the end, the work ended early. Jiang Xiao immediately fulfilled his promise and went to sign autographs for the fans. When it was almost dark, he was finally escorted by the staff to leave.

However, Jiang Xiao's move still had side effects. As a result, during the filming period, more and more fans gathered day by day, all waiting for his autograph.

He had no choice but to drag Zhou Xun into the situation and help him sign the autograph. After all, he was quite famous.

Fortunately, this situation only lasted for less than a week, and we moved indoors to shoot, which finally reduced the interruption of onlookers.

In this way, until early December, Jiang Xiao finally finished filming his part ahead of schedule and officially wrapped it.

Director Cao Baoping is also very strict in his requirements, and sometimes he likes to make changes on the spot, otherwise, he can be at least half a month ahead of schedule.

No matter what, it is over. Speaking of which, he only received a very low salary for "Li Mi's Conjecture", only 500,000 yuan. It was a very friendly price, but it took up a lot of time.

Taken together, it took nearly two months. For such a plot-focused film, it really wasn’t that short.

Not to mention that currently, only Jiang Xiao has finished filming ahead of schedule. Zhou Xundu still has many other scenes that have not been filmed. It is estimated that filming will not be completed until the end of the month.

In addition, it should be mentioned that during this period, "Wushuang" has been fully released after extending its release period by one month, and the final box office also fell over 452 million.

Basically, more than 90% of the box office came from the first month. During the extended period, the total did not reach 30 million.

This is also a common feature of the movie market. Except for a few surprising movies, the box office of most movies is basically concentrated in the first few weeks.

Regardless of this point, the box office result of 452 million can be regarded as setting a new record in mainland film history. It is no longer a Hollywood movie that has occupied the top spot for many years.

In addition, the Hong Kong box office also exceeded the 40 million mark, reaching 43.12 million Hong Kong dollars.

There is also Wanwan, who also received 57.9 million Taiwanese girl coins. The two places combined are almost exactly around 50 million yuan.

This just pushed the total box office of "Wushuang" to 502 million. However, it will continue to be released in other Asian countries and regions, so the final total box office is not yet accurate.

But this 500 million box office is enough to satisfy all the producers behind the scenes, and Jiang Xiao is one of them.

After all, rough calculation, the mainland box office is 452 million yuan, after deducting the necessary deductions, there is still 178 million yuan left.

As for Xiangjiang and Wanwan, apart from the deductions, the producers can get about 25%, which is a quarter of the 12.5 million.

The total is 190 million yuan, after factoring in costs of 40 million yuan and publicity expenses of 30 million yuan, the net profit has reached 120 million yuan.

In addition to the advertising placement of about 10 million yuan, Jiang Xiao, who can get 10% of the total, can get about 13 million yuan in net income.

This will continue to generate some income in the future, such as copyright transactions and box office sales of unreleased films in foreign regions.

In short, I think an income of 15 million+ should be relatively safe for him.

While doing very well at the box office, "Wushuang" was also nominated for a Golden Horse Award.

There are a total of thirteen nominations for Best Film, Director, Actor, Actress, Screenplay, Cinematography, Editing, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress, Art, Costume, Sound, and Action.

There are two more nominations than "The Story of Lao Yi" which had eleven nominations, making the two films the biggest hits at this year's Golden Horse Awards.

Speaking of which, "Lao Yi's Story", which was released in November, is currently being extended and continues to be released, but it has lost any box office potential.

The total box office has successfully exceeded the 100 million yuan mark, reaching about 130 million yuan. For a purely literary film, it clearly demonstrates the audience's expectations for Li Yu.

However, there are probably a lot of people who scolded me for causing all the most exciting parts of the movie to be cut out, making it completely unwatchable.

Think about it, Jiang Xiao almost wanted to star in this movie and put forward relevant conditions, but Li Yu was obviously unwilling to compromise, so in the end he dropped the matter.

Then history got back on track, and Wei Ge, who was not a drug, still starred in this movie.

At the same time, he has become his biggest competitor for this Golden Horse Award.

In my memory, the other party also won the prize. I wonder if there will be any changes now that he is an additional variable.
Chapter completed!
