Full-time actor

Chapter 399 [82] A new record for Chinese-language films in the world film industry!

"At the closing ceremony of the 28th Summer Olympics in Athens, the Imperial Capital 8 Minutes achieved a complete success..."

As soon as they got off the plane, Chen Yu and others were receiving praises from relevant organizations.

It can be seen that this time because of the "Chinese Martial Arts" program, the entire 8-minute performance was full of flaws.

Although there was a lot of criticism for the first show of Tang Yan and others, and there were constant criticisms on the Internet. Some skirts were too short and exposed too much, but at least there were eye-catching parts and advantages; and most importantly, Chinese Kung Fu This wave of cultural output seems to be very successful.

Not to mention the lively discussion on the domestic Internet, external websites, magazines, media, news and other channels are also vying to report on this program.

Although Chen Yu's reputation also played a vital role in this process, the above only looked at the results. In their view, such positive enthusiasm has achieved a very good positive effect.

After taking a group photo, each person was given a medal and certificate, and the leaders left.

Lao Mouzi looked at everyone, with a smile on his tired face: "Okay, all the banquets in the world come to an end, everyone goes home!"

After four months of getting along, many people have formed deep friendships.

Shi Yande smiled and hugged Chen Yu. A special car came to pick them up. After Chen Yu said goodbye to each other, he followed Lao Mouzi and others and walked out of the airport.

Ji Qiannan obviously couldn't tell on the phone.

These people may not be very popular stars, but they are more than enough to become stars; in Chen Yu's opinion, everyone's skills are real skills.

Professional talents are needed by the crews of action dramas.

"What else can happen?"

There must be something wrong with her appearing here, and she would not go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything!

Chen Yu subconsciously turned on his cell phone, and there were countless missed calls and text messages. There were classmates, friends, and directors. They were all words of congratulations. Chen Yu replied to them one by one. Ji Qiannan looked at them and shook his head.

Chen Yu admired these martial arts champions from the bottom of his heart.

Ji Qiannan was also there this time.

This is a very normal emotion.

Chen Yu waved to everyone, signed a few names, and got directly into the car.

"Okay, when it's time for you to film, I'll ask my apprentices to come find you!"

No matter how difficult it is, martial arts instructors, martial arts substitutes, etc. can also be used.

"Maybe it's popular?"

Of course Shi Yande was a little impatient, but others might have other ideas.

After finally sending the message, Chen Yu turned around, smiled and said, "Sister Qian, what do you want from me?"

"Master Yande, Brother Bing, Brother Li, it's settled, if I make an action movie in the future, you will have to make a guest appearance!"

Although many people came to see Chen Yu.

Today is different from the past. Now he, the artist who signed a contract 2 years ago, is already so tall that she has to look up to him. Fortunately, Chen Yu's character has always been very strong. Even now, he seems to be very polite to her and not like him. Many people have that arrogant and arrogant attitude after becoming famous.

There were actually many fans who came to pick them up. It can be seen that the response to "8 Minutes in the Imperial City" was indeed good.

For example, Chen Yu, Shi Yande, and a group of performance masters, although they had already left their contact information, they were still a little reluctant to part ways after being together every day.

Ji Qiannan can still feel this. Whether a person is inflated or not, no matter how good you are, others are not fools.

He has become more or less arrogant after becoming famous, but Chen Yu... has always done this very well. He has always been clear about his position.

Sometimes Ji Qiannan also doubts whether Chen Yu's age is fake, which is too prudent.

Not like a young artist at all.

"Advertising, commercial performances, variety shows... I want to discuss it with you. I know your schedule is full!"

"Mr. Pu has no choice but to throw the hot potato to me!"

Ji Qiannan told the truth that nowadays there are dozens of companies looking for Chen Yu to endorse, not to mention some TV station activities. But Pu Lin maintains his identity, even if he wants to make money, he will not call Chen Yu to say this matter.

Therefore, Ji Qiannan is the best middleman.

"Let me pick a few, variety shows and commercial performances, I really don't have time!"

Chen Yu was already giving Pu Lin face. Of course, it was also because Ji Qiannan signed a contract with him in the past.

After all, the roles in the two dramas "The Golden Family" and "Dragon" still relied on her connections; she also had several endorsement contracts.

However, Ji Qiannan can no longer keep up with Chen Yu's pace.

Currently, she is very famous in the circle. Everyone knows that she is Chen Yu's agent. Her status is also not what it used to be, and the people she knows are more famous than the others.

However, compared with Chen Yu himself, Chen Yu may look down upon her resources.

Because Chen Yu became famous so quickly, no matter how Ji Qiannan maintained it, it would still take time.

Maybe in the near future, she will have a place in the Beijing circle, but that's for the future; the relationship between the two of them now is more of a cooperation and friend.

"Then you will try to spare a day next month?"

Ji Qiannan asked Chen Yu for his opinion. After Chen Yu thought for a while, he still said: "Just two days. I'll see if I can finish filming "Initial D" by the end of next month!"

"it is good!"

Ji Qiannan breathed a sigh of relief.

Two days is definitely enough for shooting commercials.

Along the way, Chen Yu checked with Ji Qiannan the advertisements he was screening.

After arriving home, Chen Yu had a peaceful sleep, and the next day he rushed to Wuyuan, Jiangxi Province, the crew of "Little Forest", that is, "The Village". "The Village" was finished filming, so he had to go to Japan immediately to shoot "Initial D"!
On the way, Chen Yu actually received a call from Lao Mouzi.

"Have you seen the news?"

Zhang Yimou said something without beginning or end, and Chen Yu immediately asked: "What news?"

"Haha, I knew you didn't look!"

Lao Mouzi basically knows Chen Yu's schedule: "The box office of "House of Flying Daggers" will exceed 3 million in China!"

"Ok?"

Chen Yu stood up fiercely: "Didn't I say before that it would be difficult to exceed 3 million?"

"Before was before, now is now!"

Zhang Yimou laughed: "In North America, the weekend of the 29th also hit a new high, with a single-day box office of 607 million, ranking first; yesterday and today during the working day, it did not fall back much, both fluctuating around 500 million!"

"In a few days, it is estimated that North America will also exceed 100 million!"

No wonder Lao Mouzi was so excited.

The North American box office exceeded 100 million, which was a new high in his career.

It was not difficult to break 500 million in the past, but it was definitely not that fast. After all theaters in the United States were opened, although the box office of "House of Flying Daggers" was very good, its recognition was definitely not as high as that of popcorn commercials. million in a single day is already the limit. .

But now, breaking new highs, it's beyond the reach of many box office forecasters.

Domestic sales exceeded 3 million, which was far beyond Lao Mouzi’s expectations.

Because for a film that has been released for almost 50 days, not only the film schedule, but also pirated resources and so on have been rampant. A few days ago, it was no longer possible to reach 100 million in a single day.

Don't look at the box office gap of only 900 million, but many viewers who should watch it have already watched it; those who haven't watched it, some have also watched pirated copies.

But the day before yesterday and yesterday, the box office of "House of Flying Daggers" actually dropped.

With only 8% of the movie scheduled, a large number of viewers actually entered the theater. The number was 120 million in a single day the day before yesterday and 175 million yesterday, far exceeding the total single-day box office of the previous days.

"Today, there should be more than 100 million!"

Lao Mouzi laughed a little, but Chen Yu actually reacted as soon as he heard it.

He probably made this call specifically to tell himself this; in fact, everyone can see that there is only one reason why the box office has experienced such a strange growth, whether at home or abroad.

They were looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's popularity these days is quite a sensation not only at home but also abroad.

Although the box office may not seem to increase much, if 1 more people watch it, it means a box office increase of hundreds of thousands.

With so many people in China, 1 viewers who have never seen "House of Flying Daggers" entered the theater, which already increased the box office by 30.

Moreover, there are actually many viewers who have not watched "House of Flying Daggers".

14 billion people, how big a base is it?
“I just don’t know how long this wave of enthusiasm will last!”

"But no matter what, "House of Flying Daggers" is a profit!"

Zhang Yimou smiled. Of course, he would not directly thank Chen Yu in his words; but it was self-evident that he made this call.

"House of Flying Daggers" broke 2.5 million, which may be due to Zhang Yimou; but it broke 3 million, which was created by Chen Yu.

This is a manifestation of box office appeal.

North America, of course, is no different.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yu couldn't help but clenched his fists; the better the box office of "House of Flying Daggers" was, the better it would be for him.

The second domestic movie with a box office of over 3 million, it will certainly leave its mark in film history.

Two days later, Chen Yu, who was filming "The Village", received the good news he had been waiting for.

The domestic box office of "House of Flying Daggers" officially exceeded 3 million yuan, setting a new record in Chinese film history!

At the same time, the North American box office of "House of Flying Daggers" also exceeded 1 million US dollars yesterday; and today the North American box office is still very strong, and it is expected to maintain 400 million in a single day.

This weekend, everyone knows that "House of Flying Daggers" will set a new box office record.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has achieved a breakthrough of 1.3 million in North America. Its global box office of 2.13 million US dollars was overtaken by "House of Flying Daggers" five days ago.

Now the box office of "House of Flying Daggers" has reached 2.7 million US dollars!
Another new global box office record for a Chinese-language film.

In fact, not only in North America and the Mainland, but also all over the world, the box office of "House of Flying Daggers" was more or less abnormal, because Chen Yu's popularity spread quickly overseas.

This is the reason for the indirect growth of box office.

Many overseas media have already claimed that Chen Yu is the fourth after Bruce Lee, Cheng Long and Jet Li.

There was public relations and hype from CAA, but I have to say that the promotion was very successful.

Another Chinese Kung Fu superstar is about to rise globally.

And in addition to his skills, his resume and age are even more distinctive!

Last year, Thai action actor Tony Jaa became famous in one fight with the movie "Boxer", which grossed US$1500 million at the global box office and shocked the global market; now Chen Yu has obviously made a much greater impact than him.

Even Tony Jaa can be targeted by Hollywood, let alone Chen Yu.

These records are the steps that will send him to the altar of action!
