Chapter 486 The situation is stronger than the people
Oriental Morning Post
"'Charlotte's Troubles' is released on screen with great success, Leo fights back against Guangguang's attempt to give Wang Changtian a sports car."
"After Li Chen's "Charlotte's Troubles" received a warm response at the Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama, the crew came to the Shanghai Theatre Academy yesterday."
"A three-minute clip made the students burst into laughter."
"Regarding Zhou Yang's recent revelations about the Zhen Zi Dan drama tyrant incident, Leo objectively commented on it and refuted the claim that Zhou Yang was banned."
"I also urge all students to cultivate a strong character and a correct sense of right and wrong."
Hebei Youth Daily reported
"The Hawthorn Tree received positive reviews, and Zhang Yimou returned to his true self after shedding all the glitz and glamour."
"Yesterday, the film "Under the Hawthorn Tree", adapted from the novel of the same name as "the purest love in history", was screened by the media in Beijing."
"As Zhang Yimou's return to art films after joining Rongchen Pictures, this film has always been the focus of media attention."
"Judging from the reactions from all parties after the preview, Zhang Yimou's performance this time, which downplayed the technicalities and told the story in a leisurely manner, was highly praised."
In the entertainment industry, Mou and Li occupy most of the market.
Li Chen's comments on the Zhou Yang incident at the Shanghai Theatre Academy won the favor of countless passers-by fans.
"Little Leo is very fair and objective. Although Chen Jiashang and Liu Weiqiang are big directors, their statements are essentially the same as Zhou Yang's. They are all one-sided."
"That's right. The person involved is Zhen Zidan. He is a grown man and he didn't speak out. Two big directors accused a newcomer of poor acting skills. What a joke."
"These people in the Hong Kong circle still can't change their arrogant habits after so many years."
Li Chen's sudden attack caught Wang Changtian off guard.
The wind of public opinion changed too quickly.
What was originally an eye-catching move by the little actor Zhou Yang turned into a shameful act of two big directors in the Hong Kong circle and three big men, Zhen Zidan, bullying a little actor.
Wang Changtian called Li Chen immediately.
"Brother, why are you doing this?"
"Why, you're not happy that I want to give you a sports car?" Li Chen laughed.
Wang Changtian said bitterly: "If you do this, will you be able to give away your sports car?"
Li Chen laughed: "It has nothing to do with what I do. Can Zhen Zidan afford a box office of 500 million?"
Wang Changtian's expression changed: "What do you mean?"
Li Chen's tone remained unchanged, still smiling, "Except for Hero directed by Yimou, it's hard for his films to make over 100 million yuan."
"You are so good, you just shouted out 500 million. I think you really don't want to give Shu Qi a sports car!"
Wang Changtian burst into laughter when his little thoughts were exposed.
"Alright, I won't respond to this matter anymore. Just take care of your people."
"Chen Jiashang is the chairman of the Academy Awards after all. Is it appropriate to comment on a little girl like this?"
"After all, she is Yifei's best friend. Yifei called me, what do you think I should do?"
"Besides, don't let your deep love go to waste! If you find out you've met the wrong person, don't come to me to complain."
Wang Changtian suddenly realized: "After all this time, Yifei finally spoke to you. What a mess!"
When Wang Changtian heard that it was Liu Yifei who pleaded with Li Chen, much of his dissatisfaction disappeared.
This brother is fine in every way except that he has a little bronchitis, and he is certainly aware of that.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Jiashang in front of him felt very embarrassed.
He basically heard everything that Mr. Wang and Li Chen had said just now.
As for Li Chen's deep affection being fed to the dogs, neither of them understood.
It was not until the release of "Fist of Fury" that Makoto Dan cursed Light Media, and the two of them understood the true meaning of this sentence.
"Boss Wang, I really didn't notice that girl was Liu Yifei's best friend."
Chen Jiashang's heart was in a mess.
Even if he knew that Zhou Yang was Liu Yifei's best friend, he probably wouldn't have thought that Liu Yifei would plead with Li Chen for this matter.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. This matter ends here."
"My brother is about to soar to the sky, and even I have to give in to him."
Seeing Chen Jiashang's puzzled expression.
Wang Changtian smiled with regret and said, "Youku will be listed soon."
The Chen family understood instantly. It seemed that Li Chen’s worth would skyrocket again.
Wang Changtian’s guess was correct.
Gu Yongkeng has already notified Li Chen, Big Brother Wang and Jack Ma to hold a shareholders' meeting.
Youku plans to submit a listing application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 11.
Only half a month later than potatoes.
Gu Yongkeng was also anxious at this time.
"Li Chen, Potato has already taken the lead! What's your trump card? It will be too late if you don't show it now!"
Li Chen was certain that Wang Wei would be dealt a fatal blow by the person next to him.
But nothing has happened yet, so he doesn't want to tell Gu Yongkeng directly.
You can't just say that I know the couple is not getting along and are about to get divorced.
"Boss Gu, please be patient and wait and see what happens."
Gu Yongkeng was so angry that he vomited blood. He had heard Li Chen say this at least four or five times.
"You are so young, but you are really tight-lipped! Well, you, the major shareholder, can keep your composure, but I, the helmsman, am a little confused."
Li Chen laughed: "That's because you are the largest shareholder. Don't worry, Youku will definitely be the number one stock in the global video website."
Hong Kong Island
Zhen Zidan, who had just returned from Europe, had a gloomy face. "Is the Guangguang side just letting it go? Liu Weiqiang and Chen Jiashang are also silent?"
Makoto Dan is a representative figure of the Hong Kong circle, and has inherited the deep-rooted bad habit of Hong Kong stars of looking down on mainland movie stars.
At that time, Fan Qiaoqiao was already a top actress in China.
At the Academy Awards, he took the initiative to invite Makoto Dan to act in the film.
As a result, Zhen Zidan said: Then you have to reduce your pay first!
Mingli seemed to be saying that he couldn't afford Fan Qiaoqiao.
In fact, it was just a veiled criticism that Fan Qiaoqiao was not worthy of such a high salary.
"What else can we do if we don't count? You know this Director Li."
"He is very popular in mainland China now. If there is a conflict, his fans alone will be enough to make us suffer." The agent also advocated keeping the peace.
When you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head, after all, the market is in the hands of others.
They are not Huayi. If they go against Rongchen Pictures, they will most likely be beaten into a sieve.
What's more, Director Li's statement at the Shanghai Theatre Academy was biased.
But what he said was very objective and it was hard to find fault with it.
"Look at the box office, look at the promotion of Detective Dee, and then look at Fist of Fury. We should have chosen Huayi in the first place!"
Zhen Zidan was filled with indignation.
"The Legend of Zhen Huan" released two sets of makeup photos of Zhen Huan, played by Sun Li, in her teenage years, which immediately amazed everyone.
The original fans' initial opposition voices suddenly disappeared without a trace.
When Li Chen was promoting "Charlotte" in the ancient city, Zhang Yuqi called Yang Siwei and said that he wanted to play the role of host and invite Li Chen to dinner.
The Bald King also wanted to talk to him.
Li Chen felt amused. Zhang Yuqi followed Bald King and starred in "White Deer Plain", and now he has become a landlord.
In the past two days, this girl has finally gone back to her old path as a star girl.
But the person he trusted was not a good one, so what was there for him and the Bald King to talk about?
Could it be possible to talk about how to save fallen girls from various countries or organize a group trip abroad to have fun?
However, Zhang Yuqi had a fight with Zhou Xingxing.
But she didn't cry and play the sympathy card like her predecessors did.
The theme is goodbye but we are still friends.
What's more, Bald King strongly supports Zhang Yuqi, saying that Zhang Yuqi's sexiness comes from the inside out.
He had never seen such a sexy woman.
"I won't go. I don't have the time to see this pair of mandarin ducks." Li Chen shook his head and chuckled.
Could it be that Zhang Yuqi thought that she and he became friends after starring in "The Lost Tomb"?
The news that "Dream of Red Mansions" has been scheduled has become a hot topic.
After five years, Liu Yifei returns to the small screen again.
Sina Entertainment News
"Directed by Li Chen and starring Liu Yifei, Zhu Yilong, Zhang Hanyun, Deng Jiajia, and Chen He, the ancient female inspirational drama "Dream of Hualu" will be broadcast in two episodes on CCTV-12's prime time starting from December 8."
"As CCTV's finale of the year, Dreams of Splendor has attracted attention from all sides since the project was launched."
"Liu Yifei took on the role for the first time. The reporter connected with Liu Yifei in Hawaii."
"Liu Yifei admitted that she had a hard time filming many of the literary scenes in Dream of Red Mansions, and joked that her acting skills were severely tortured by Li Chen on the set."
"Although the process was painful, after watching the trailer, she felt very satisfied because it was visible to the naked eye that she had indeed made progress."
Upon learning that Dreams of a Chinese Odyssey was scheduled to be broadcast on CCTV, major satellite TV stations no longer hesitated.
Nowadays there is no such thing as "one drama with two stars", but a hodgepodge of 4+X, and CCTV is not among the "4".
When Li Chen returned to Beijing, the filming of Inception had just been completed.
"Eclipse" is about to be released in North America, and in two days, Zhang Yimou's "Hawthorn Tree" will ignite the battle for the National Day movie in China in advance.
Sina Entertainment News
"Inception, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Liu Yifei, Marion Gloria, and Wang Zhiwen, was released in China after 58 days, and was taken off the screen yesterday."
"Currently, Inception, written by Li Chen and directed by Nolan, has grossed $5.95 million worldwide."
"It finally achieved a good result of 6.4 million RMB in China, and it is the second film this year to have a box office of over 6 million RMB after Passengers."
China Film
Han Saping's face was flushed and he looked as good as if he had eaten ginseng fruit.
He walked in the China Film Building with his hands behind his back and in a square step, and his subordinates all had a good look on their faces when they saw him.
Everyone in the office was smiling, and this year's benefits would probably be quite great.
"Director Han's work report for this year is complete."
"Yes, one is Passengers and one is Inception, the two movies together cost 13 billion, wow."
"And Huayi's 'Earthquake' also made 5.6 million."
"That doesn't count. I only gave him 10% of the share. Mr. Han doesn't care at all. Didn't you see that Mr. Han didn't mention anything about "The Great Earthquake" recently?"
Han Sanping and Li Chen discussed it and decided not to hold a celebration banquet.
These film producers all agreed that they should at least hold a separate show for Li Chen.
After all, the profits this time cannot be underestimated.
On the day of the premiere of "The Hawthorn Tree", Li Chen had not returned to Beijing yet.
It is said that many people cried their eyes out.
On the day of the national release, Zhang Yimou's business card was still very impressive.
Even if it is an art film, the standards given by the cinema are no less than those of domestic commercial blockbusters.
