China Entertainment 2000

Facts have proved that the influence of Forbes in the United States is huge.

It is true that they have not yet entered China as an official Forbes magazine and published the income list of Chinese celebrities, but it is obvious that they are already doing relevant work.

Last year, they cooperated with Hurun in China to publish the Hurun Rich List. Because it was released at the end of October, it obviously missed Zhou Yi. This time, with the help of Grammy, it was directly included. The income he predicted in the Book of Changes was revealed in the character biography.

In an era when the exchange rate was 1:8 points, this speculation by Forbes directly caused a shock when it was reported back to China!

"What the fuck?! Doing music makes so much money?! Makes more money than Chenglong?!"

"That's not necessarily true. Jackie Chan has too many sources of income. His movie rights are sold every year, as well as action movie rights. Zhou Yi only has music and endorsements."

"Guaranteed income of 800 million yuan? Monday 100 million yuan has evolved into 800 million yuan per week, right?"

"Damn, I'm so upset. Last year, when he was 21, he made 800 million a year. Now, when he's 22, he can't make 1.8 billion a year?!"

"To put it another way, this is a global market, and I even think he got too little..."

"Indeed, compared to the market share created by Zhou Yi, what he took is actually quite small. Warner is still too greedy..."

"..."

The discussion on the Internet was in full swing, and people in the industry were also shocked by Zhou Yi's annual income——

In this era when earning 30 to 40 million yuan is considered a high income in the Mainland entertainment industry, Zhou Yi single-handedly raised the ceiling to 800 million yuan.

Now they finally understood why Warner allowed Zhou Yi to continue to act recklessly——

This is Prince Warner, this is the God of Wealth that must be sacrificed!

From the crew of "The Beauty", Fan Xiaopang, who had just finished filming all his scenes, was stunned when he saw the news that was widely circulated on the Internet——

How many?

Eight hundred million? !

I can't even sell her for this price!

Fan Xiaopang, who was determined to stand up and become the master, and expected to be able to take over Zhou Yi one day in the future, fell directly into a state of doubting his life.

She thought about how long she would have to work hard to become Fan Bayi...

Then, she sadly found that she couldn't figure it out...

This was beyond her comprehension.

And not just in China.

In neighboring Japan, South Korea, and even in European countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom, there are quite a few people who pay attention to this field. Although they clearly knew that Zhou Yi should have made a lot of money last year, no one expected that he could actually make so much money. Money goes into your own wallet.

And judging from the fact that China's domestic official media intends to cool down and no major newspapers have reported on this aspect, this amount of money is likely to continue to increase.

"Excellent musicians should make money. I look forward to Zhou Yijun becoming Asia's Michael Jackson or Elvis Presley."

As the world's second largest music market, the Japanese market, which allowed Zhou Yi to take advantage of him last year and contributed to his career's take-off, is experiencing such a trend.

Why can only Americans and Europeans make a lot of money in music?

Aren’t Asians okay too?

Besides, at least four-fifths of Zhou Yi Yingzhuan's global market is in other regions of the world except Asia, so there is no such thing as a nest.

Of course, Qian Jiang, as a senior agent in the industry, has different views on this big wave——

"My old mother Diulei, I bet this Forbes has no good intentions!"

Crowne Plaza Hotel, in the presidential suite.

Qian Jiang, who was furious at the Forbes special issue, put his hands on his hips and paced back and forth in front of the balcony with floor-to-ceiling windows, showing off his Cantonese charm.

As a Chinese, there has always been a saying that wealth should not be revealed, especially for a young man like Zhou Yi.

Warner has never announced the details of its share with Zhou Yi in order to protect Zhou Yi. There has been no domestic media to calculate Zhou Yi's various assets and income. This is also the work of Zhou Jianhui and Qian Jiang.

But now, in the name of popular science, Forbes directly relies on various calculations and forecasts to put the income earned by Zhou Yi on the table.

Zhou Jianhui and Qian Jiang can deal with domestic media, but they cannot deal with all foreign media.

Obviously, this is the Western world's tentative counterattack against the wave of racial discrimination that Warner privately led.

"Don't worry, there won't be much trouble in the country."

Compared to Qian Jiang's anger, Zhou Yi obviously didn't take it seriously.

Let’s not mention that the state gave the green light to tax, after all, that is an official act. He himself is an active tax payer and never cheats or cheats.

To make money in dollars, pounds, and euros, if you look at the bigger picture, it means you are harvesting European and American wool. Who has any objections?

As for online public opinion, Wang Xiaoyu’s navy—oh no, Internet companies are not free.

"You must remember that if a reporter asks you about your income on the red carpet later, you can either pretend not to hear and don't answer, or you can just say that Forbes' estimate is wrong."

Qian Jiang solemnly warned: "People's hearts are separated from each other, so it's better not to talk about income to the outside world."

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Zhou Yi was adjusting his bow tie in front of the full-length mirror and adjusting his hairstyle.

When male celebrities walk on the red carpet, they basically wear suits.

Due to Zhou Yi's fame, the famous luxury brand Armani directly sponsored three sets of high-end suits for free. It is difficult not to think that Armani is inspecting Zhou Yi.

On the evening of February 23, the 45th Grammy Awards was officially held at Madison Square Garden in New York, USA. On the list of broadcast companies responsible for broadcasting, the one responsible for the Chinese side is Zhou Yi's old acquaintance - Imperial Music Broadcasting.

Zhouyi's "Chinese Songs Ranking" and "Global Chinese Songs Ranking" that dominated domestic charts in the past were all produced by this channel.

Before starting to walk on the red carpet, Zhou Yi still accepted the compliment from this old acquaintance, which made the beautiful reporter laugh out loud.

During the red carpet session, Madison Square Garden was bustling with activity. Countless celebrities who were well-known in most parts of the world attended, causing screams.

As one of the most handsome boys in the audience tonight, Zhou Yi, who was wearing Armani haute couture, did not waste his 1.83-meter frame. When he walked on the red carpet with one hand in his pocket, his sides burst out with laughter. Janet Jackson, Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne, Eminem and others have similar voices.

There were even crazy female fans who tried to rush away from the reporters in the front row and pulled on their underwear strings to get Zhou Yi's autograph.

"Spike! Spike! me! look me!"

"I love you, spike!"

"Can you sign it for me Spike!"

"..."

Zhou Yi, who took over the signature pen and fulfilled fans' wishes one by one, made the audience scream even louder——

"Spike! Spike, is it true that you and your compatriot Yun Fat had conflicts in China? There are rumors that you banned him? Is this true?"

"Fake news, next."

Zhou Yi, who didn't realize at first that it was Zhou Runfa, glanced at the reporter and waved his hand to signal for a new batch.

"Spike, your compatriot Yun Fat has not supported you. Will you repay grievance with kindness and support his new movie?"

The next group of people who came over still had the same problem, and their desire to start a fight was palpable.

"His new movie? He's box office poison and MGM will lose money like a fool."

Zhou Yi answered confidently: "The next batch."

"Spike, do you think you will lose against Eminem tonight? There are a lot of people who think you will lose to Eminem in direct competition."

"A lot of people want me to lose to Eminem, which I understand but don't respect. Because then they will make today a great anniversary to commemorate this rare achievement."

"What do you want to say to your crazy fans?"

"You can enjoy my music, but you don't have to fall in love with me, let alone be crazy about me."

"How do you feel about being named the world's most profitable male singer under 30 by Forbes in 2002?"

"No, it even feels boring."

The reporter was stunned: "Boring?"

"certainly."

Zhou Yi, facing the camera, shrugged: "I have never touched money. I have no interest in money."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Damn Fuck!

Is this human language? !

Even though he knew that Zhou Yi said this in a narrow-minded tone, he still made the reporters feel so angry that some of them even laughed out loud.

"Rolling Stone magazine ranked you as the fifth most anticipated singer in the early 21st century. What do you think of this ranking?"

"generally."

Zhou Yi shook his head: "I think I should be second."

"Second? Then who is first?"

"To show my respect to the fans and you, I think the number one priority should be God."

Zhou Yi tilted his head slightly, raised his right index finger, and pointed at the sky: "God, after god, me. (God, after God is me.)"
