Huayu started from the fairy sword

Chapter 565 Intention to quit, throwing 2 million to collect!

Adapted from the super big IP "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", jointly produced by Century Film, Huayi, and Wanda, supervised by Cheng Guofu, directed by Wu Ershan, and co-starred by Cao Jun's partners Shu Qi, Huang Bo, Xia Yu, Liu Xiaoqing, Yang Ying, etc. "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Finding the Dragon" has attracted money at an unusual rate since it was released.

The box office on the first day was nearly 2 million, ranking first among all domestic films. After that, it surpassed 7 million in 9 days, and 8 billion in 10 days. .

Although it successfully exceeded 10 billion, the current rate of gold absorption of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Dragon Hunting Art", which had been highly expected by the industry before, is still lower than expected.

After the release of the two new films "Old Paoer" and "Villain Angel", the film scheduling space of "Looking for the Dragon" has also been squeezed, falling from about 60% to 20%.

Although the market share of "Looking for the Dragon" has decreased with the release of the two new films "Old Paoer" and "Villain Angel", the entire Lunar New Year market has also become hot under the combined effect of the three films.

And Cao Jun, the high-profile actor, has also increased his net worth, and his cumulative personal box office has reached an astonishing 60 billion yuan from 70 billion yuan!

However, as "Detective Chinatown" directed by Cheng Sicheng and starring Wang Baoqiang, Liu Haoran, Tong Liya, etc. is about to be released, the film schedule of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Finding the Dragon" is bound to continue to be impacted. The goal of 30 million is almost impossible to achieve.

February 1, 10pm.

The investors of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Finding the Dragon" held a grand celebration banquet in the capital to celebrate the film's box office breakthrough of 16 billion yuan.

In other words, since Huayi Brothers went public in China in 2009, Guang Zhongjun, one of the founders, has also caught up with the golden 10 years of Huaguo movies by virtue of his contacts in the mainland entertainment industry, and quickly entered the domestic Chinese rich list .

"That's right, don't think that after learning the word "actor", you can just gossip and pretend to be a fool. When you need support, isn't my army brother the first to donate money?"

"It's just an actor who has such terrifying wealth. I don't know if it's the tragedy of the society or our country. I don't know what kind of contribution such an actor has made to society. It's ridiculous that so many people still support him. !"

"It's normal for Brother Jun to have this money. If he wants to make money, he can make more. Not to mention other things, just talk about holding concerts. If he wants to hold, he can hold 100 shows a year. But he Over the past few years, there have been more than 20 concerts in total..."

And Cao Jun's Century Film and Television Company is not a listed company, no matter how well Century Film and Television Company is doing, it does not need to be responsible to anyone.

Moreover, it remains to be seen whether this year's ancient calligraphy and painting craze is an accidental phenomenon, whether it can change from a niche market to a mass market, and whether it will last in the future
However, in this Jiade Spring Auction, the news that Cao Junhao spent 2.07 million to buy "Ju Shi Tie" was also uploaded on the Internet.

It is undoubtedly a gratifying thing that ancient calligraphy has attracted the attention of collectors. However, due to the high threshold of ancient calligraphy, many fakes, and great controversy, it has long been the variety of a few senior collectors.

As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way. For Cao Jun's current position, he has enough money. He has been reluctant to let Century Film and Television Company go public because he still has a conscience.I don't want to cut the common people's leeks, and I don't want to make money against my conscience.

In 2014, when the Huayi Brothers were at their peak, Huang Zhongjun bought the works of the world famous painting master Van Gogh. This oil painting is Van Gogh's "Daisy and Poppies". We all know that Van Gogh's works are relatively abstract, and his paintings are worthless. However, after Van Gogh's death, his oil paintings were highly regarded. Huang Zhongjun bought this painting at a price of 3.77 million yuan, creating the highest price for a Chinese overseas auction.

In the end, Huang Zhongjun won the first place with a sky-high price of 1.85 million yuan, and took this famous painting by Picasso into his pocket.

Obviously, Huang Zhongjun took the money from cashing out stocks, but became a hands-off shopkeeper, obsessed with collecting art, participating in various gatherings, and no longer cared much about the company's development.

However, Huang Zhongjun did not stop there. Not long ago, Huang Zhongjun set his sights on Picasso's famous painting "Seated Portrait of a Woman with Her Hair in a Bun". Although there were many bidders, Huang Zhongjun's generous spending really made many foreign bidders stay away.

Of course, Cao Jun also thought it was a good idea to collect artworks. Buying a painting can not only preserve its value, but also be used for appreciation and cultivate one's sentiments. It kills two birds with one stone.

One of the necessary conditions for collecting is economic permission. Wang Zhongjun, who is listed on the rich list, obviously has this condition, but different from others, Huang Zhongjun's collections are all top-notch. I like painting on weekdays, and I prefer to collect the world's top famous paintings , Huang Zhongjun once laughed at himself that he was an amateur painter, but the paintings collected by Huang Zhongjun are by no means amateurs, and he spent 10 billion yuan on collections.

In this Jiade Spring Auction, a calligraphic letter with only one square foot - Zeng Gong's "Ju Shi Tie" in the Northern Song Dynasty was sold at an astonishing price of 2.07 million yuan, which made people appreciate the extraordinary value of ancient calligraphy.

"Actor? Your mother is an actor, your whole family is an actor, my brother Jun is your father, and he said that my brother Jun didn't contribute much to society, how much charity my brother Jun has done, you know what the hell!"

In other words, Cao Jun wants to leave Century Film and Television Company now. He can leave at any time, or sell the company to anyone. people.

Huang Zhongjun was very proud of his generous collections, and took advantage of this meeting to lobby Cao Jun hard to get Century Film and Television to go public as soon as possible, and then cash out his art collections like him.

A few days later, Cao Jun and Huang Zhongjun participated in Jiade Spring Auction together.

Like other tycoons, Huang Zhongjun also likes to collect, and taking advantage of this opportunity to celebrate together, he chatted with Cao Jun about his experience in collecting.

In addition to producer Chen Guofu, director Wu Ershan, starring Cao Jun and others, Huang Zhongjun and other big names in the circle also participated in the celebration banquet.

"Normal, my military brother is not only a star, but a veritable entertainment tycoon!"

However, Cao Jun is different from Huang Zhongjun. Huang Zhongjun is now the chairman of the listed company, and he has absolute responsibilities and obligations for the company's development and the stock price of shareholders.

"My God! Cao Jun is so rich, he is willing to spend 2 million yuan for a painting!!!"

Hearing Huang Zhongjun's words, Cao Jun gradually became a little moved.

Huang Zhongjun put Cao Jun's shoulders and said earnestly: "Jun'er, for people like us, money is just paper, and it will depreciate continuously with the passage of time and inflation, but artworks will not. The longer it lasts, the more valuable it becomes..."

It is worth mentioning that the "Ju Shi Tie" has a total of 124 characters, and it has been 936 years ago. It has been collected by many celebrities in history.

"..."

Different from all the positive comments in the past, after the news of Cao Jun’s generous purchase of "Ji Shi Tie" was exposed, netizens' evaluation of him also began to change.

However, generally speaking, there are still more positive reviews than negative reviews.

Fortunately, Cao Jun has a good attitude and can face all the bad words calmly.

In addition, Cao Jun has secretly made up his mind a long time ago, striving to gradually withdraw from the entertainment industry within a few years, and distribute his charitable feat of donating and building more than 100 Hope Primary Schools to the outside world.
