Chapter 427 Never Compete with Yifei

This week, "Avatar" finally returned to Earth from the magical planet Pandora, earning only 2300 million.

But he still easily defeated the challenger "Sherlock Holmes" and defended the weekly championship title.

The record of nine consecutive championships is not unprecedented, but it is almost unparalleled.

The total box office of the film has increased by 14 billion, exceeding the domestic annual box office in 2002.

Cheng Long's "Little Big Soldier" has grossed over 100 million yuan in the two weeks since its release.

But "Avatar" broke the domestic film history on its own, and a box office of 100 million is no longer something to be proud of.

Li Chen answered Tim's call in the study.

"Avatar" is gradually fading away, and "The Conjuring 2" is preparing to be released in April.

After "The Conjuring 2", Li Chen and Wen Ziren agreed that he would direct the first season of "The Hunger Games".

Li Chen is an eloquent speaker and has great potential in the vast world beyond horror films.

Wen Ziren repeatedly emphasized that he still likes horror movies the most and will make his decision after finishing the first season.

In addition, "Inception" will be released in the summer vacation.

Liu Yifei and Deng Chaode began to cooperate with the crew in global publicity, and also had to shoot "Dream of Red Mansions", so their schedule was very tight.

"Inception" and "Passengers" almost surround "Earthquake" from front to back.

I wonder if the schedule will be changed after Da Wang and Xiao Wang know this news.

"Director Yimou is here, let's go in." Liu Yifei was sharp-eyed and saw Zhang Yimou's car driving into her house at a glance.

As soon as Zhang Yimou entered the room, Deng Chao and others immediately came forward to greet him.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Director Zhang. Under the leadership of you and Director Li, we will thrive in the future. Don't you agree?" Deng Chao said with a smile.

"Brother Chao is absolutely right. Director Zhang, please take good care of me in the future. I, Zhu Yawen, will be the mascot on your and Director Li's shoulders from now on!"

Zhang Yi felt ashamed when he saw Deng Chao and Zhu Yawen's reactions.

No wonder others are more popular than me, I only have acting skills.

"Can you two give me a chance to curry favor with Director Zhang?" Zhang Yi's eyes rolled around, not willing to be left behind.

Zhang Yimou smiled naively: "There is a chance, there is a chance."

Liu Yifei, Zhou Xun and others also came in and met Zhang Yimou.

Yang Siwei arrived late with Yu Kewei, Zhu Yilong and Chen Sicheng.

It was the first time for several newcomers to visit the big boss’s mansion, and Di Lieba acted as a tour guide.

As soon as Li Chen came out of the study, he saw a few girls.

There are many different ways to address him: "Boss, Brother Li, Boss".

Zhang Hanyun, Di Lieba and Song Qian all call each other by their own names.

"Director Zhang is here, let's go down together." Li Chen nodded and smiled.

"Has Han Yun gained weight again recently?"

Zhang Hanyun was embarrassed: "Boss, I gain weight even if I drink cold water. I don't want to do that, but I will try my best to control it."

Li Chen's laughter was clearly heard by the people downstairs: "Female stars can't be too thin. They don't look good if they are thin."

"But you can't be too fat. Being fat will ruin everything."

What you say is unintentional, but what you hear is intentional.

"Boss, are you talking about me?" Tang Yan looked up at Li Chen who was walking downstairs and smiled.

Li Chen laughed: "I am giving Xixi a shot of prevention. She is just like Hanyun, she is single-minded in her hobbies."

What hobby is eating?

Everyone laughed and had a great time.

The banquet began, Li Chen and Zhang Yimou sat opposite each other.

On both sides of the long table, the people closest to Li Chen were Liu Yifei and Yang Siwei.

Li Chen stood up and raised his glass.

"Let me first say thank you for choosing Rongchen Pictures."

"This is just your starting point, not your end point."

"Zhou Xun is the first to leave, and she will definitely not be the last." "Meeting is fate, and breaking up should be done in peace. I hope Zhou Xun will get better and better."

"Of course, it's not enough to just have a good career, your relationship has to blossom and bear fruit too. You can't just walk through a sea of ​​flowers without getting a single leaf touched."

"Are you right?"

Zhou Xun was embarrassed and rolled his eyes at Li Chen without saying anything.

Everyone laughed and cheered happily.

"Director Li is right. Brother Xun, my gift money is almost going moldy. Please be kind and find someone to marry as soon as possible." Deng Chao shouted at the top of his voice.

"Sister Xun, just set an example for your younger sisters. If the eldest sister can't go out of the house, who among us would dare to walk into the church?" Yang Mi also acted very close to Zhou Xun.

Everyone was talking at once, and Zhou Xun could even make a joke.

After a glass of wine, Zhou Xun had something to say. He glanced at Li Chen and Liu Yifei with a smile.

"Actually, the man I want to marry most is someone like Director Li."

"It's a pity that there is only one Director Li in the world, and he belongs to Yifei. I can only search for him in the sea of ​​people."

Everyone laughed, and Zhang Yimou couldn't help but smile.

Liu Yifei stared at Zhou Xun with a smile, and Li Chen also tilted his head and watched Zhou Xun's performance with a smile.

Yang Siwei even echoed: "Brother Xun is a real man of steel and blood. He actually told the truth."

"Species like the boss are already extinct on Earth. Let's go to Mars to look for them."

Yang Mi and Tang Yan also laughed and said, "That's right, senior, do you have a twin brother? Tangtang and I are looking forward to it."

Liu Yifei immediately became unwilling: "I say you two should stop joining in the fun. Do you want me to make an official announcement for you in front of Song Qian and the others?"

Chen Sicheng glanced at Yang Mi and thought to himself.

"It seems that the scandal between her and Hu Ge is true. It really is better to strike first!"

"But who Tang Yan is with, how come I don't know."

Tang Yan immediately begged for mercy: "Xixi, that's Mimi coveting the boss, I have always regarded the boss as my brother."

"I treat you as my sister-in-law!"

Tang Yan emphasized the word "sister-in-law".

Zhu Yawen rolled her eyes: "Oh my god! Why don't you say it's your brother-in-law!"

"Hahaha"

Zhou Xun quickly returned to the topic: "Hey, Jingjing, the jokes are over, now it's time to tell the truth."

The scene gradually became quiet.

Zhou Xun straightened his face and said: "I, Zhou Xun, have two benefactors in my life. One is Wan Niang (Li Xiaowan), and the other is Director Li."

"Wan Niang brought me into the circle, and Director Li brought me honor. I sincerely thank Director Li for his support and support." Zhou Xun bowed deeply.

Li Chen smiled and waved his hand.

Zhou Xun smiled again, and his style suddenly changed.

"I, Zhou Xun, only want to say one thing today: I will never compete with Yifei in the future! But I hope Yifei will not forget me and my studio."

Everyone burst into laughter!

Liu Yifei glared at Zhou Xun fiercely and couldn't help laughing herself.

Zhang Yimou never knew that the atmosphere inside Rongchen Pictures was so comfortable.

Zhang Yimou could not have imagined that his signing ceremony and welcome reception half a month later would make him even more emotional.

Without Zhang Weiping, perhaps it would be just as Li Chen said: A blessing in disguise.

"Damn, Brother Xun is a smart guy!"

"Sister Xun, please be clear-headed. Even if you want to offend the boss, don't offend the boss's wife!"

"Sister Xun's words awakened the dreamer!"

"Sister Yifei is awesome."

Chen Sicheng and Zhang Yi gave Zhou Xun a thumbs up.

Zhang Hanyun and Reba were like two quails, blinking their big eyes and laughing.
