Chapter 219: Golden Rooster and Golden Horse
Zhou Xun brought Chen Kun to toast, and Li Chen did not refuse Zhou Xun's face.

He showed some interest in it, but still showed a lukewarm attitude towards Chen Kun.

Zhou Xun understood it in his heart.

Seeing that the Li Qiaoqiao sisters had already come up, Zhou Xun tactfully pulled Chen Kun away.

Chen Kun felt a little disappointed, even though "The Clouds and Water" received rave reviews and was nominated for many Golden Rooster Awards.

But the box office was not good and his fame remained stagnant.

Without a movie with a box office of over 100 million yuan, he would be at the bottom of the first-tier stars.

"Let's forget about it today. I'll find a chance to talk to Director Li another day." Zhou Xun comforted Chen Kun.

But she didn't have much confidence.

After a few years, she has some understanding of Director Li.

Once he makes up his mind, few people can change his decision.

Yifei may have this ability, but can Yifei speak for Chen Kun?

It's simply impossible.

No matter how good Liu Ye's acting skills are, Director Li still never used her once.

I don’t know if it’s because of the wine-throwing incident between her and Liu Ye, so in order to save her face, Liu Ye is not used.

Chen Kun let out a long sigh and smiled: "I won't thank you. I'm going to go over there and toast to Director Feng and Director Jiang."

Zhou Xun nodded and returned to his table.

Yang Siwei smiled and said, "You worked so hard for nothing, didn't you?"

Zhou Xun pretended to be confused: "What are you talking about?"

Yang Siwei said leisurely: "You know what I'm talking about."

"Brother Xun, don't worry about these things in the future. We'd better not interfere with the boss's decisions."

Yang Mi repeated to Zhou Xun what Yang Siwei had just said.

Zhou Xun was a little surprised: "Is this true?"

This kind of celebration party is a great opportunity to expand your network.

Domestic capital and big directors have basically gathered together, and it was not easy to meet someone in the past.

All showed up today.

After the celebration banquet, Li Chen and Liu Yifei left early.

The aftermath was left to Wu Bin, Yu Miao and Yang Siwei.

Yang Siwei mentioned Zhang Yi's matter to him.

Since Li Chen said he would not interfere with her, he naturally wouldn't care.

Yang Siwei actually didn't think much of Zhang Yi, but after all, it was the first time Kang Honglei spoke to her.

They are from the same company, so she has to give him some face.

Reluctantly signed a five-year contract with Zhang Yi.

In this way, Zhang Yi became the second artist of Yi Xin Media.

Yu Miao also issued a statement on behalf of Rongchen Pictures, announcing that Rongchen Pictures will no longer sign artists in the future.

For those who have already signed the contract, if they are willing to renew the contract after the expiration, they will also sign with Yi Xin Media.

The filming of "The Sound of Wind" cannot continue today.

Zhou Xun's condition was obviously not right today. It was like a torture, and Zhou Xun kept wiping away tears.

The small room of about ten square meters filled with torture instruments was packed with people, many of whom were surrounding Zhou Xun.

But Zhou Xun just kept wiping away tears silently and didn't cry out loud.

Li Chen's face was calm: "All of you get out."

As soon as Li Chen spoke, Li Chen and Zhou Xun were the only ones left in the room.

Li Chen walked up and gently helped Zhou Xun, who was wearing a tattered white knee-length pajamas, up from the ground.

Zhou Xun's hair was wet from having just been watered, and his eyes were swollen.

Zhou Xun wiped away her tears: "Director Li, this is too cruel to me. I'm sorry!"

Li Chen smiled and said, "I understand. Only when a professional actor is immersed in it can he experience the horror of these tens of seconds. You don't need to explain."

“This is also a challenge and a breakthrough for you.”

"I won't preach to you. I'm just telling you that this scene must be filmed, even though it's only a few seconds long."

"But if the photos are not good, I will still NG again and again! Because you are Zhou Xun, I will not give in!" "I believe you."

"That's all for today. You should adjust yourself." Li Chen patted her thin shoulders.

Not to mention Zhou Xun, even Zhang Manyu encountered such a problem in The Wind.

Zhang Manyu's acting in that stripping scene was quite explosive, but Zhu Yawen just couldn't keep up!

This made Li Chen very angry!
After five NGs in a row, Zhang Manyu was no longer in a good mood.

Zhu Yawen shook his dizzy head.

Zhang Manyu's performance was so intense that he couldn't concentrate fully on it.

Li Chen didn't yell at Zhu Yawen, he just said to him: "Try it again, if you can't catch it, I'll change you!"

When these words were spoken, not only Zhu Yawen was stunned, but everyone else on the set was also stunned.

Director Li has never changed actors in his films. If Zhu Yawen was replaced, it would be a big joke.

During the two days of filming the torture scenes, Li Chen became a little impatient.

Zhou Xun's unexpected collapse and Zhu Yawen's failure to perform well were all actors from Rongchen Pictures.

It made him, the head of Rongchen Pictures, very embarrassed.

The most important thing is that it seriously slowed down the filming progress of the crew.

Li Chen did not favor one over the other and gave Zhu Yawen one day.

Then we continued to film the torture scene of Su Youpeng.

Zhang Manyu saw Li Chen go out.

I was also a little embarrassed: "Xiao Zhu, it's okay, I'll go talk to Director Li later."

Zhu Yawen said awkwardly: "Thank you, sister, it's my problem."

The crew of "The Sound of Wind" did not make smooth progress, but the crew of "Draw the Bow, Shoot Archery" made smooth progress.

Liu Yifei, Shu Chang and Di Lieba all conducted archery training in advance.

"The Pietà" finally passed the mainland's review.

Liu Dehua and Li Chen discussed it and decided to release it on November 2nd.

After all, it has already been released in Asia, and pirated VCD discs can already be purchased in mainland China.

An earlier release could also reduce some losses.

Any movie that wins the Golden Lion generally doesn’t have a very high box office.

Li Chen is no exception.

After one week of release, the highest box office came from Japan and South Korea.

Converted into RMB, it is just over 10 million, totaling 25 million.

However, Li Chen and Liu Dehua didn't care, after all, they had already earned back the copyright.

The media have been asking how much the copyright sold for.

The producer Liu Dehua did not hide it: 4650 million US dollars.

The media and people in the circle were amazed, and the comments online were that Andy finally didn’t have to go bankrupt!
The Golden Rooster Award was won by "The Legend of Zu".

The best actress won another double yolk egg.

It's funny that people from the same hometown love people from the same hometown, otherwise why would they bring Liu Jialing here?

I heard that the organizer strongly requested that Liu Jialing, a native of Suzhou, must be included.

There is no other way, just download it.

Not to mention double-yolked eggs, triple-yolked eggs were laid a few years ago.

I don’t know if Li Chen’s harsh words had any effect.

Zhu Yawen seemed like a different person, showing both Takeda's perversion and calmness at the same time.

The moment Li Chen called for a stop, Zhu Yawen collapsed to the ground, exhausted, as if he had just gone through a serious test.

The crew laughed at him: "Torture is not as powerful as Director Li's words!"

During the break, everyone talked about the Golden Rooster and the Golden Horse Awards which were about to open, and asked Li Chen to predict the results of the Golden Horse Awards.

Li Chen still only said one sentence: "Golden Rooster and Golden Horse are a family, and a family is not a family at all!"

Seeing Director Li leave, Zhu Yawen came to Zhang Manyu and said, "Sister, what does Director Li mean?"

Zhang Manyu smiled and said, "Liu Jialing is from Suzhou, and Li An is from Taiwan. What do you mean?"
