Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 482 No money?

"Lost in Thailand" continues to gain momentum in the new week. In the three working days before "Zodiac" was released, it still scored an incredible 3 million yuan, and the total box office has exceeded 1.57 million.

However, a person like Jackie Chan, who has been in the industry all his life, will not admit defeat. He is not even willing to say "囧囧" before the release of "Zodiac" and before the winner of the two films has been decided. 》 kind words.

Even politely complimenting the other person on their good grades is not enough.

"Zodiac" hit theaters across the country on the 20th and took in 4400 million at the box office on its first day, knocking "囧" from the Japanese championship.

However, it is worth noting that "囧囧" also had a revenue of 3600 million that day.

Jackie Chan's "last big action movie" only made 9 million more box office on its opening day than a comedy that cost 3000 million to run for 800 days.

In any case, Huayi does not accept this result.

Huayi knows how small the gap of 800 million is.

"Chinese Zodiac" and "Lost in Thailand" were fighting each other, and the ones that died violently were "Blood Drops" and "Big Shanghai" that were released at the same time.

"Blood Drop" only had a mediocre sales of 765 million on its first day, and "Big Shanghai" was even worse, with only 500 million.

Xiao Ming is so miserable. In the former, he is the male lead, and in the latter, he is the second male lead.

Xiao Ming's journey to the big screen has been very bumpy in the past few years. Takeda's performance in "The Wind" was very good, but since "The Wind", he has never had a commendable role to dedicate to the audience.

Zhang Yuanjun still can't figure out why Huang Xiaoming, one of the leading young actors in Mainland China, wanted to play an almost minor role in "Ip Man 2".

His performance was so bad that the audience humiliated him by saying "Zhen Yan is responsible for Ip Man and Huang Xiaoming is responsible for 2".

However, Huang Xiaoming is very popular in the industry and has a wide network of contacts. He has no shortage of film projects. He just started filming a blockbuster last month, cooperating with Fan Bingbing in "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch".

Just as the staff said, others would like to schedule the film to three years later, but Zhang Yuanjun still took the time to pick up the script.

Even in the past two days, I have been thinking about how to have a sweet and romantic Christmas with my wife.

What he wanted to do was go to a hot spring with Liu Yifei, and then try to convince her to put on the JK he bought secretly.

But as soon as Zhang Yuanjun said, "Let's go to a hot spring for Christmas," Liu Yifei objected.

"I made an appointment with Teacher Xue Xiaolu that day to discuss something." Liu Yifei was now very enthusiastic about work. Looking at her husband's disappointed look, Liu Yifei touched his face and said, "I don't care about this day."

Zhang Yuanjun was not particularly disappointed, but said: "You make it look like I'm just eating soft food."

"Don't you always want me to be more attentive to my work?" Liu Yifei said with a smile, "I listen to you and work hard."

Zhang Yuanjun asked back: "Are you aroused by watching me win the Best Actor Award?"

"Hey, come here, Young Master!" Liu Yifei looked disgusted.

In fact, Zhang Yuanjun understands that Liu Yifei is a person who is extremely incapable of internal friction. Most of the time, she does something just because she likes to do it and wants to do it, rather than because of any stimulation.

Not to mention Zhang Yuanjun winning three gold medals, even if he won another Oscar, apart from being happy for him, Liu Yifei would not have the thought of "I have to work hard to catch up with him."

"If you want to spend this Christmas, then..." Liu Yifei thought for a while, "You cook a delicious meal and I will come back early that day."

"You really treat me as a househusband." Zhang Yuanjun said.

"oops……"

Seeing that Liu Yifei was about to act coquettishly, Zhang Yuanjun quickly said: "Okay, okay, I'll do it for you. You weren't like this before." "I learned it by watching TV, as long as it works." Liu Yifei said with a smile, "Are you particularly into this? "After speaking, he raised his eyebrows.

"I don't want to do this." Zhang Yuanjun said, "I think you are really tired recently, so I'll cook you a meal to reward you. You think it's because of your coquettishness."

…………

On Christmas Eve, a well-known media published a "2012 Most Profitable Celebrity List" online, taking stock of the income of each celebrity this year.

Ranked first is Huang Xiaoming. The article revealed that his income in 2012 was as high as 3.9 million. In the comment section, the author of the article praised him as a model worker in the entertainment industry. He has 5 works released this year and 4 more works planned for release next year. Investment is also blossoming in many fields, and with this kind of income, it is within expectation.

The second one is Wu Qilong. After successfully becoming famous with "Step by Step", his career ushered in a second spring in the mainland. He married Hai Run and opened Straw Bear Studio. He transformed into a producer and invested in and filmed many popular dramas. Sell, "Including income from film and television dramas and endorsements, Wu Qilong's annual income should be more than 2 million yuan."

The third and fourth place are the two soldiers of Fan and Li.

It is strange that Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei, the most watched celebrity couple this year, are not included in this list.

Liu Yifei put down many activities and concentrated on the preparation of "Miss Bai".

The task of responding naturally fell to Zhang Yuanjun, who was also able to engage in public activities.

"Recently, a "List of Most Profitable Celebrities in 2012" appeared online. You and Yifei were not in the top ten. What do you think of this ranking?"

Zhang Yuanjun smiled: "Yifei and I really didn't work much this year. Our income this year is not very high. It's normal that we didn't make the list."

"Is it true that the Internet says your salary is so high that the producers can't afford it?"

"If the salary is too high to afford, then the salary is fake. I can pay 10 billion for one film."

The reporter didn't bother with the money issue, because Zhang Yuanjun had three golds in hand, and everyone agreed that he was eligible for the sky-high salary.

"Then do you have any work in the future that you can tell us?"

"We are talking about a very interesting script, and the theater will also have a performance assignment next month."

That's it?

The reporters were very disappointed. When they asked for more details, Zhang Yuanjun refused on the grounds that he would tell everyone after the talks were settled.

After the simple interview, Zhang Yuanjun left.

Out of curiosity, Zhang Yuanjun found this article and read it after getting in the car.

It’s true that my husband and I are not even in the top ten.

"Is our income so low this year?" Zhang Yuanjun asked his assistant and agent.

"It's okay. The entire industry has been very hot in the past two years, and our income is actually pretty good. You and Yifei don't accept commercial performances now, and it's not like they accept 20 or 30 endorsements in one breath. Compared with what they earn, Less is normal.”

"They all accept twenty or thirty endorsements?"

"Yes, Fan Bingbing received 21 endorsements this year, with an average of 800 million per endorsement, which is 18 million. Li Bingbing's main source of income is also endorsements. She has endorsements this year." Xiao Zhao said Wan also complained about Zhang Yuanjun, "The few endorsements we have, such as LV and Earl, may look great, but in fact we can't make money from them."

But Zhang Yuanjun would not listen to her offer to accept more endorsements, so he had no choice but to say: "I will work hard next year to make movies so that everyone can make money."
