Full-time actor

Chapter 397 [80] Master Xing also comes to join the heat, and the promotional video for "Kung Fu" is released!

"Chinese culture is a vast ocean. If you just scoop it up with a ladle, it will be profound and profound!"

"So we racked our brains on what kind of actors to choose and what kind of programs to choose..."

Zhang Yimou is being interviewed by CCTV backstage, which can be seen in subsequent live broadcasts.

"The 8-minute performance aims to condense our rich Chinese national culture. In terms of theme selection, after four months of repeated discussions, we finally selected the most representative and internationally recognized form, instead of choosing a distinctive one. , but something extremely rare, because this performance is mainly for foreigners, and the purpose is to make them look forward to the 4 Imperial City Olympics!”

"So how would you personally rate this program?"

The reporter quickly asked.

"The score is not judged by me, but by the audience around the world!"

"My mission is accomplished!"

"Okay, thank you, Director Zhang Yimou!"

Chen Yu smiled: "At that time, Yifei said that she had lost two games in a row. I wanted to support her, so I asked her to buy it!"

"I won hundreds of thousands. I think I won anyway. It's the last day, so why don't I just invest them all?"

Chen Yu's check can be withdrawn from any bank in Greece.

Chen Yu felt that the reporter's question was very low-level, and it might be a trap for him. This program is the result of everyone's concerted efforts. Why do you just ask yourself this question?
Fortunately, Chen Yu was not Brother Chu, so he responded with a straightforward and watertight answer and brushed it off.

The butterfly effect of the Athens Olympics has changed less. The imperial capital is his base. Who knows what will happen in 08?

"I bought a few thousand to support our athletes, but I didn't expect...all of them won!"

Chen Yu nodded.

Moreover, Chen Yu did not take the same flight as the two of them, but traveled with the large army.

what can I do?
I'm desperate too, okay?

"I am grateful to have such a good team and thank you all for your hard work day and night for so many days..."

Seeing the worry on Liu Xiaoli's face, Chen Yu knew what she was thinking: "Auntie, it's like this. I bought less at the beginning. I saw that many people bought that one. Aren't there a lot of slogans at the airport?"

Liu Xiaoli's 5000 yuan of spinach has also been exchanged, and more than 20 euros have been received.

This is not a good practice.

Cio and Hina, no wonder they are so brainless.

After a while, Chen Yu met Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli in the hotel. The two seemed very low-key at the moment because they were surrounded by reporters and athletes from various countries. After the game, they must have a good time in Athens.

Liu Yifei: "..."

Many domestic martial arts enthusiasts are vying to copy Chen Yu's stick kicking action, trying to imitate and crack it; and the news from foreigners is even more interesting. Photos of Chen Yu's performances have appeared in newspapers and periodicals in countless countries. above the media.

Chen Yu pretended to be like this, and what he said was so impeccable that Liu Xiaoli even laughed a little when she heard it: "You, this is all luck!"

This kind of thing can obviously only be done once, and Chen Yu will certainly not do it again in the Imperial Capital Olympics.

Chen Yu hurriedly borrowed a pee to escape and went backstage to remove his makeup and change into costumes.

"However, we can't do this next time. Luck comes from time to time. When it's good, everything goes well, but when it's bad, even drinking cold water will clog your teeth!"

She knew that Chen Yu was very rich, but with this way of playing, the kid wouldn't like gambling, would he?

"Then don't buy so much at once!"

However, the people from CCTV Sports Channel were probably not very good at interviews of this kind of media nature, so they were quite lacking in professionalism. Chen Yu always felt that he looked familiar. After looking at the name on the press card, he suddenly realized.

"neither!"

Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli took a first-class flight in the early morning because they couldn't book it any later.

"..."

Chen Yu obviously didn't have time to watch it. He had to send Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli to the airport.

Especially CCTV, it would definitely not be good if it was discovered.

I bought all 15 of them for 75000 euros, which is more than 76 yuan.

This time, his closing ceremony performance has actually undergone a series of changes.

"Ok!"

"Unexpectedly, I got hit again!"

Liu Xiaoli felt it was necessary to remind him.

"Here, your bonus!"

Liu Yifei took out a check that Chen Yu asked her to redeem the prize. Liu Xiaoli next to her joked: "Xiao Chen, are you calculating or deceiving?"

You can't stop luck when it comes!

Liu Xiaoli: "..."

Liu Xiaoli spoke in the tone of an experienced person.

At least, the outside media has already caused a sensation.

After the reporter asked Lao Mouzi, he handed the microphone to Chen Yu: "Hello Chen Yu, thank you for showing us such a beautiful martial arts performance. Are you satisfied with your performance today?"

Not only did Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei spend nothing on this trip to Athens, but they also made hundreds of thousands, so they went shopping at the airport. Liu Yifei even gave Chen Yu a valuable watch.

Of course Chen Yu bought a lot for his family and the two of them.

This time in Athens, he earned close to more than 1500 million euros, which is definitely a big gain.

"Okay, let's get in!"

"I'll be back in two days!"

Chen Yu hugged Liu Yifei and watched them enter the terminal.

After returning to the hotel, Chen Yu turned on the computer.

Of course the local news in Greece will not broadcast China’s closing ceremony. Is it too late for these guys to report on themselves?

However, Yahoo Toutiao has updated some information about the closing ceremony.

"Closing Ceremony of the Athens Olympics, Chinese Kung Fu Ignites Olympia!" 》

Clicking on it, pictures popped up one after another, including many about Chen Yu; beside the news, there were also some introductions and links to him.

And domestically, let alone that.

The media all over China seemed to be in a climax, covering the closing ceremony of the Imperial Capital for 8 minutes; in the previous life, because he was criticized for being autistic, the media did not publicize it well at all. It was all spontaneous abuse in many forums on the Internet.

This time, although most of the program is the same as in the previous life, and some of them deserved to be criticized, but they are definitely much better than the previous life.

Because at least, this 8-minute program of Chinese martial arts in the imperial capital is very bright.

"It was Chen Yu who saved some dignity for Lao Mouzi!"

"Should I say it or not, this martial arts performance is indeed good!"

"I got goosebumps watching it!"

"Chinese martial arts is awesome!" "..."

Chen Yu looked at the comments from netizens and felt sorry for Lao Mouzi for three seconds; the audience would not think that this show was the credit of the staff and designers behind the scenes. They would only give all the credit to the performers. .

This is of course normal.

Just like when an athlete wins a championship, it actually involves the hard work of coaches and sparring partners.

Only Chen Yu, the person involved, knew that even though he came up with the idea for this action, the perfection and design were all discussed by the entire team.

Netizens obviously don't understand this. Even if you popularize it with them, they will only think that Chen Yu is awesome.

Performance is indeed the last stressful part.

"But at least I praise more than I curse!"

Chen Yu browsed one by one and subconsciously opened the entertainment section.

The domestic box office of "House of Flying Daggers" should have almost reached its peak, and it is still less than 3 million away from the 1000 million box office; but this 1000 million figure is like a chasm.

Not to mention surpassing the record of "Titanic", it is a bit difficult to become the second domestic film to break 3 million box office.

Of course, the national box office of 2.91 million has broken countless records; it is also enough to be recorded in the history of Chinese movies, and it will definitely occupy a place.

Compared with China, the box office in North America is growing gratifyingly.

Just the day before yesterday, in North America, more than 3100 theaters had collectively released the film, basically covering the entire territory; and the single-day box office of "House of Flying Daggers" has also reached more than 500 million, and it will only be a matter of time before it breaks million.

The global box office has also reached 2 million US dollars in the past few days. The current global box office total of 2.1 million is only a little short of being among the top ten box office films in the world of the year.

"The North American box office of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is 1.3 million, which is also the best result for a foreign language film in North America!"

"I don't know if I can touch it or break it!"

Chen Yu's current hope is this.

However, just when he closed the computer and was about to go to sleep, an unexpected text message appeared on his personal mobile phone.

"Brother Yu, congratulations. I watched the closing ceremony and the performance was very exciting!" - Zhou Xingchi!

"Thank you Mr. Xing!"

Chen Yu replied very politely. Of course, Brother Yu is just an honorific within the circle.

"Let me tell you in advance, "Kung Fu" will premiere at the Toronto Film Festival on the 19th next month. Are you free to attend?"

"next month?"

Chen Yu's face turned bitter. In the next few months, he really would have no time at all.

The announcements are fully booked.

Toronto Film Festival Chen Yu still knows.

This film festival is different from the three major film festivals such as Berlin and Cannes. It is not a screening + award-winning film festival type. Instead, it only screens new films and does not award awards.

In other words, this film festival does not award awards. It just premieres new films and then lets people buy them.

There will be countless audiences and votes throughout the festival.

Voting is to select the best film, and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was the first place in the voting in 2000.

However, although Toronto is not evaluated, its current influence is as famous as the three major film festivals; relying on the special market of North America, it has become the best trading place for the world's best films.

Many non-Hollywood films, or American non-commercial films, have found suitable distributors here, and it has become a benign platform to promote film exchange and development!
If "Kung Fu" is to be released in North America, it must find a suitable distributor at this film festival.

"It's okay. I'm just asking you. It's okay if you don't go!"

Seeing that Chen Yu hadn't sent a message for a long time, Zhou Xingchi sent another one, and Chen Yu hurriedly called him. He knew that Zhou Xingchi didn't like to make phone calls, and always liked to communicate via text messages. But if he couldn't participate, he would definitely have to talk to him. He said.

"Brother Yu, congratulations!"

Zhou Xingchi's familiar voice sounded, and Chen Yu hurriedly said: "Master Xing, I'm sorry, I really want to go, but there is a movie that has been delayed for a long time, waiting for me to finish it!"

"Directed by Liu Weiqiang..."

Chen Yu said a little, and Zhou Xingchi smiled and said: "It's okay, don't force it if you don't have time, I'm going there too, I want to sell "Kung Fu" at a high price!"

"Today is different from the past. Your worth is different now. The movie will definitely sell for a good price!"

Zhou Xingchi was joking there, and Chen Yu quickly waved his hand: "No, no, Master Xing, you are more famous than me!"

"Haha, don't be modest. I've heard recently that you are very popular in Hollywood!"

"How about it? When will you log in? I'm optimistic about you!"

Zhou Xingchi laughed loudly, and Chen Yu could only say: "There are no plans yet. I will tell you when I get there!"

"Well, come on, you may not know how great our Chinese action movies are. I can tell you responsibly that when Bruce Lee was in Hollywood, he was always given free film offers; I hope you can be like Brother Cheng Long and Jet Lee. You are all talented and can make a big difference in Hollywood!”

"Ok!"

Chen Yu understood what Zhou Xingchi meant.

"Bruce Lee, his most glorious moment was in the 70s!"

"And I am now!"

Many people have never seen the glory of Bruce Lee, Cheng Long and Jet Li in Hollywood. What Chen Yu has to do is to surpass them and become the new Kung Fu spokesperson.

The current "House of Flying Daggers" and the Olympics are just the beginning.

"Kung Fu" is his second film.

Next, Chen Yu will follow the path that the three people took before and completely introduce Kung Fu into Hollywood.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you!"

"The promotional video for "Kung Fu" has been released. This time the promotion is mainly focused on you. I will send it to your email later to check it out!"

Chen Yu couldn't help but be stunned by Zhou Xingchi's words.

But in a blink of an eye, he understood what the other party meant.

Zhou Xingchi's signature brand may no longer need to be introduced. Chinese people all over the world know it.

The addition of Chen Yu will become a new selling point of "Kung Fu".

In fact, Zhou Xingchi never thought about this when he asked Chen Yu to participate in the film; he did not expect that Chen Yu would become famous so fast and was about to enter Hollywood.

Moreover, taking advantage of the momentum of the Chinese Kung Fu show, he launched "Kung Fu" starring Chen Yu. Zhou Xingchi did not want to take advantage of this wave of popularity, and Columbia, the investor behind him, would obviously let him take advantage of it.

After all, based on the current box office performance of "House of Flying Daggers", Chen Yu, a Hollywood super star, may have a higher box office appeal than Zhou Xingchi in North America.

Strike while the iron is hot, and Colombia made a good calculation.

"Okay, send it to me!"

Chen Yu said a few more words to Zhou Xingchi and then hung up the phone.

More than half an hour later, Chen Yu finally received the "Kung Fu" promotional video sent to him by Zhou Xingchi; using the hotel's network, Chen Yu patiently downloaded it to his computer desktop.

I subconsciously clicked on the video, and a short video of 1 minute and 21 seconds suddenly popped up.
