Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Sina Entertainment News

“12月27日消息，《中国电影报》官方微博正式公布2011年第52周的内地电影票房数据，该周总票房升至4.9亿。”

"The Flowers of War and Flying Swords of Dragon Gate both surpassed the 3 million yuan mark in cumulative box office, and Intimate Enemies, which was released during the Christmas season, grossed 4200 million yuan in three days."

“官方数据显示，《金陵十三钗》上周票房20250万，截止到25日累计票房达到39250万。《龙门飞甲》上周票房17500万，截止到25日累计票房达到31750万。”

"Intimate Enemies, which was just released during the Christmas season, grossed over 4200 million in three days, and Love in a Fallen City also grossed 2400 million."

International online reports
"The vampire-themed Twilight Saga, produced by Chiyou and distributed by Warner Bros., has been a success and has broken records since its release."

"After 40 days of release in more than countries, the film has grossed over million U.S. dollars worldwide, becoming the highest-grossing film in the Twilight series."

"At the strong request of fans, Chiyou Pictures announced yesterday that the second part of the final chapter of Twilight will be released on November 11 next year."

The two words "700 million" that were trending on Weibo were like the causative agent of conjunctivitis. Wang Zhonglei took a look at them and his eyes almost became bloodshot.

"700 million US dollars, even if Chi You opens on June 4th, he can still earn nearly 300 million. Li Chen is really lucky enough to drive people crazy!"

"Brother, I will be satisfied if our "1942" can earn 3 million US dollars worldwide." At the Huayi headquarters, Wang Zhonglei and his eldest brother Wang Zhongjun couldn't help but complain.

They were both purchased novels and then adapted into scripts.

He didn't dare to hope that "1942" would be as perverted as "Twilight", but he could always have some hope for it.

After all, "Chinese Police" has now created a film history record of 15.8 billion, dominating the Chinese film and television industry.

As long as "1942" can earn 13 billion yuan at the domestic box office, which is about million US dollars, and Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States work harder, it is still possible to get million US dollars.

"Okay, Zhonglei, no matter what, Dragon Gate has already broken 300 million, which is always a good thing. Tell Xu Li to prepare a celebration banquet."

One Christmas indeed made two blockbusters, "The Flowers of War" and "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", take the lead.

There was a hint of a smile on Wang Zhongjun's face, and the gloom of the past few days was swept away.

As long as the domestic box office of "Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate" exceeds 300 million, Huayi will have recovered its costs, and the rest will only be a matter of profit.

Wang Zhonglei chuckled and said, "Brother, do you need to tell me this? I have already arranged it. I will call Li Chen later. How can we miss him at the celebration party?"

Wang Zhongjun frowned slightly, thinking that his brother was looking for trouble: "There's no need for this, just send an invitation, he probably won't come"

Li Chen was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he received the call from Wang Zhongjun.

Wang Zhongjun is the producer of "The Flowers of War". Knowing that the overseas copyright of "The Flowers of War" was sold at a high price of 6800 million US dollars, he naturally calculated that as long as the domestic box office of "The Flowers of War" exceeded million, "The Flowers of War" would not lose money.

"Director Li, I'm sure that The Flowers of War will break 500 million before New Year's Day. This is a win-win for both of us. Dragon Gate will hold a celebration banquet tomorrow night. You must come and show your support then."

"Lest the gossip media write that there is a discord between you and me. That is impossible!" Wang Zhonglei laughed heartily.

Li Chen refused more straightforwardly: "I'm not in Beijing, Mr. Wang, please let Yang Siwei go to the celebration banquet on my behalf."

"Huh? You're not in Beijing? Then where are you?" Wang Zhonglei almost blurted out.

Li Chen smiled and said, "Boss Wang, you care about my schedule more than Yifei does? Do you want me to report to you where I'm going next time?"

Wang Zhonglei laughed awkwardly, "Ah? Hahaha, no need, no need. I just asked casually. Director Li is busy, so I won't bother you. We can talk about it at the opening ceremony of Zhizhen Painting Art Dream Factory."

Li Chen laughed secretly in his heart, what else can I talk to you about? You should just worry about your "1942".

As far as I can remember, something bad was going to happen to Zhang Guoli's son after the Chinese New Year.

This is not the past life. You can smoke if you want. You can still make money as an actor if you pretend to be low-key.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhonglei muttered to himself: "If he's not in Beijing, where is he going?"

At this time, some netizens in Hong Kong have posted photos of their encounters with Liu Yifei and her daughter on Weibo.

Hong Kong Island. Sai Kung. Kowloon Walled City crew

Xiang Huaqiang rarely comes to the crew. If it weren’t for Li Chen coming to visit, he would not come, even if his son Xiang Zuo is also in the crew.

The two of them, along with Liu Dehua, stood on the side of the set and chatted.

Xiang Zuo, wearing his coat and looking dusty, stood beside his father, eager to give it a try.

I just got beaten up by Wang Baoqiang and I didn’t even take off my makeup.

Not far away, Wang Baoqiang, Deng Chao, and Peng Yuyan were hanging on wires, preparing to shoot the scene where Wang Jiu hugged and threw Chen Luojun and Sizai.

There is a green screen blocking the front.

"Ready! 12 falls." Everyone on the set could hear Lu Yang's shout clearly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Baoqiang, a man with long hair and wearing a colorful suit, bent his knees and gathered his strength, holding Deng Chao and Peng Yuyan in his hands and yelling.

The two people who were "lifted" by Wang Baoqiang were suspended by wires and fell to the ground realistically.

A frightening sneer emanated from Wang Baoqiang's throat.

"Click!" As soon as Lu Yang shouted "click", the staff quickly gathered around.

"Is everything okay? Is everything okay?"

Deng Chao's head seemed to hit the ground first. Although he knew he was hanging by a wire, he still scared everyone.

"It's okay, it's okay." Deng Chao and Peng Yuyan stood up at the same time, smiled and brushed off the dust on their bodies.

Li Chen also asked with concern: "Are you really okay?"

"It's okay, Director Li, it's no big deal." Deng Chao laughed loudly across the crowd.

Wang Baoqiang also laughed and said, "Brother Chao is fine, Director Li, I'll take care of him!"

Li Chen nodded and said no more.

Xiang Zuo explained with a smile: "Director Li, these are just small matters. Compared with the hardships I went through when I was training martial arts, these are nothing."

"Director Li, when can you let me be the protagonist again? I promise that I will never let you down."

Li Chen glanced at his beloved son Xiang Huaqiong.

Xiang Huaqiong had this idea just now in the car.

Xiang Huaqiong was very happy that Li Chen could bring him to play with Zhongguoxing in "Ip Man 4" and "Kowloon Walled City".

Upon learning that Li Chen had celebrated his birthday a few days ago, he specially sent someone to deliver a piece of gold ornament.

Xiang Huaqi said, "Director Li, I am a rough man and I speak directly, please don't be offended."

"If we can let this kid be the protagonist, China Xing will provide the full investment, or just hold 30%." Xiang Huaqi raised his thumb, index finger and ring finger and said imposingly.

Li Chen did not respond immediately. Both father and son looked at Li Chen with sharp eyes.

After a while, Li Chen nodded and said, "I will consider it if there is a suitable role, Mr. Xiang."

Xiang Huaqiong was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Chen's answer, and glanced at Liu Dehua with narrowed eyes.

Liu Dehua immediately laughed and said, "Xiang Zuo's kung fu is good. Li Chen, this guy is Xiang Sheng's favorite."

"Brother Hua, I will consider it if there is a suitable role." Li Chen still said this.

"Mr. Xiang, I will take personal connections into consideration when it comes to casting. I know Mr. Xiang is not short of money. To be frank, Rongchen Pictures' projects are never short of funds."

Xiang Huaqi choked: "Director Li, you misunderstood, that's not what I meant."

"I heard that when Director Li first debuted, Ying Huang was interested in buying the Hong Kong distribution of Crazy Stone for 10 million yuan." "My move today is the same, just to show my sincerity."

Xiang Huaqi put his hands behind his back, glanced at Xiang Zuo and said, "To be honest, I, Xiang, have money and connections, if it were still 20 years ago in the last century."

"This kid wants to be the leading actor, it's just a matter of my words. Even today, my words still carry some weight in Hong Kong Island."

"But times have changed. In the past few years, I have lost money on every movie I invested in, except Bad Genius. I know this is the general trend."

"In the future, going north will be the general trend."

"As long as Director Li can help me realize my dream, I, Xiang Huaqiang, will say this today. If Director Li has any request in Hong Kong Island in the future, my Xiang family will not say anything."

Liu Dehua sighed in his heart: "Xiang Sheng is a smart man. The name change of Zhongguoxing is very timely."

"Behind Li Chen are China Film Group and the Bureau, which in ancient times would be the imperial court. A commoner like Xiang Sheng would dream of getting on board with this powerful supporter."

Li Chen knew what Xiang Huaqiong was thinking, but in such a small corner of Hong Kong Island, there was nothing he could ask for from him.

There are many Hong Kong filmmakers who want to work with him.

If I just show a little bit of interest, Ying Huang will probably come around me immediately.

As they were talking, Li Chen's phone rang.

Liu Yifei and her daughter were intercepted by Huo Wenxi.

The black Maybach moved steadily forward on Central Boulevard.

Huo Wenxi, sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and smiled, "Yifei, you didn't even tell me you were coming to Hong Kong. If I hadn't seen it on Weibo, I wouldn't have known about it."

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "I just came here to accompany Li Chen. I thought I would go back tomorrow, so I didn't tell you."

Huo Wenxi glanced at Liu Xiaoli again and said with a smile: "Aunt, if you are not in a hurry to go back tomorrow, let me show my hospitality as a host."

"When I came to Beijing before, I always bothered Yifei and Director Li. This time, I must do my best to show my appreciation."

Half an hour ago, Huo Wenxi learned from his men that Liu Yifei appeared in Central, Hong Kong Island.

Without saying a word, he left the crew of "Inverse War" which was promoting in Hong Kong Island, got a car from the company and headed straight to Central.

Almost immediately, her boss called her and said, "It would be great if you can meet Li Chen. If not, then you should treat Liu Yifei well."

"I understand, boss. Don't worry."

Liu Xiaoli handled the situation gracefully and with a gentle smile: "I'm afraid it won't work this time. The day after tomorrow is New Year's Day and time is too tight. Maybe next time. I'll trouble you to pick us up."

Huo Wenxi did not bother to argue and said, "Okay, next time. Also, aunt, please don't say it's a bother. It's not a bother at all."

Huo Wenxi invited Liu Yifei and her daughter to have a meal at Fulinmen, and then sent them back to the Peninsula Hotel. Before leaving, he stuffed a heavy object into Liu Yifei's hand, saying it was for the child.

Li Chen returned to the hotel at night and didn't care when he heard what Miss Liu said.

On the day of arriving in Hong Kong, people gave gifts for a variety of reasons.

Xiang Huaqiang, Huo Wenxi and the hostess from TVB, etc.

It was not a gift for the children, but a token of appreciation after learning that Li Chen had celebrated his birthday a few days ago.

On Weibo, the news that Li Chen visited the set of "Kowloon Walled City" and met Liu Yifei and her daughter Ying Huang Huo Wenxi became a hot topic in real time.

Wang Zhonglei then realized that Li Chen had gone to Hong Kong Island.

The next day, Li Chen accompanied the mother and daughter to see several luxury houses.

I don’t come to Hong Kong Island very often, but now that I have a child, I still need a place to stay.

I looked at several places, but either their locations were average or the areas were too small, and I was not very satisfied with any of them.

No. 10000, Shennan Avenue, Nanshan District, Shenzhen

Early in the morning, Penguin employees were gossiping in their respective groups.

"I just saw the big boss and the second in command show up at the same time. Am I hallucinating?"

"You're not mistaken. I saw it too. I thought I saw a ghost so early in the morning. What happened?"

"I don't know, maybe some big shot is here!"

"The last time there was such a scene, I remember it was the arrival of the officials!"

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Chen and Liu Yifei appeared at the Penguin Building, a landmark building in Shenzhen.

Before Li Chen met Xiao Ma Ge, their whereabouts were exposed on Weibo.

"Li Chen and Liu Yifei appeared at Penguin Building!"

"I saw Liu Yifei in person!"

"Liu Yifei is so beautiful!"

On Weibo, someone revealed the back views of Liu Yifei and Li Chen appearing at the Penguin Building.

Netizens praised: 360 degrees without blind spots, the photos are beautiful no matter how you take them.

"Weren't Leo and Tianxian still in Hong Kong yesterday? Why did they go to Penguin today?"

"Little Leo has learned the Lingbo Weibu of the Fairy Sister, and his whereabouts are erratic!"

"Left hand holding the big horse, right hand pulling the small horse, neither of the two carriages is hindered, little Leo has the best of both worlds!"

"Weren't they looking at luxury homes in Hong Kong in the morning, and crossing the river in the afternoon?"

Penguin Building, many employees were very excited.

I actually met the fairy in person in this life, and at close range.

Yesterday I was envious of those on the other side of the river, but today it’s my turn.

Various secretly taken photos and texts of angels in the circle of friends.

"I actually saw a living celestial being. I will die without any regrets in this life!"

"She's so beautiful. If it's not working hours, I will definitely go up to take a photo. Even Leo can't stop me!"

"I just saw the fairy smile at me, and I was stunned. It's so embarrassing, I should at least strike a cool pose!"

In the elevator, the lady in the penguin professional suit led Li Chen and his wife directly to the 39th floor.

Miss Liu suppressed her laughter and whispered, "Look at Penguin's building, it's worth nine of your Jinxiu Ming Diamonds!"

Li Chen smiled and said, "But only you and I own the Jinxiu Ming Diamond, but there are many people in the Penguin. So, you and I are one of them."

Liu Yifei raised her head slightly, thought about it, and it seemed that what Li Chen said was not wrong.

She knew that Li Chen held shares in Penguin.

The young lady in the black professional suit was horrified when she heard this, and secretly guessed that this person must hold a lot of shares to be received so grandly by the big boss.

The big boss asked her to come down to pick up Liu Yifei and Li Chen, and she thought she had misheard.

I was full of questions, but when I saw Liu Yifei's unforgettable beauty, I realized it was true.

Outside the elevator door on the 39th floor, Ma Huateng smiled and waited quietly for this outsider who made him curious.
