Chapter 493 Another victory

The monstrous box office of "Charlotte" once again made the industry witness the power of Li Chen's scripts.

Even a group of unknown little people can make a stunning transformation by upgrading their guns to cannons.

I learned that Fan Qiaoqiao wanted to buy a script tailor-made for her from her boss for 4000 million.

Yang Siwei was surprised and amused.

I was surprised at Fan Qiaoqiao's generosity, but also laughed at her for underestimating her boss's vision.

"You'd better save your breath. After all, you are the Tokyo Film Queen now." Yang Siwei's words sounded sarcastic to Fan Qiaoqiao's ears.

She and Wang Qianyuan won the Best Actress and Best Actor awards at the Tokyo Film Festival.

It was supposed to be an exciting thing, but there wasn't a trace of respect in Yang Siwei's words.

"In the past two years, many people have come to me and wanted to buy my script."

"But think about it, does the boss need to make a profit by selling scripts?"

Fan Qiaoqiao had a terrible headache, and she also knew that Yang Siwei was telling the truth.

But she really didn't know what else could impress Brother Chen.

Beauty doesn't work, money doesn't persuade her, and she is not satisfied with being a Tokyo film queen.

Her international ambition is to become one of the top three European countries.

"Then give me some advice!" Fan Qiaoqiao relied on Yang Siwei.

"No way. It's hard for Yifei to even open her mouth. Besides, Yifei won't open her mouth like that."

Li Chen did not come back with Zhang Jin and others, but flew back to Beijing one day later.

At the premiere of "Ip Man 3" in Beijing, China Film Group and Yinghuang Film Group all showed up.

Yang Siwei picked up Li Chen and drove to the CPPCC auditorium.

"Boss, why didn't Yifei come back with you?" Yang Siwei asked tentatively.

I haven't heard about Yifei taking on any new dramas these days.

Instead, her boss asked her to cancel many of Yifei's commercial performances and activities in China.

Even the publicity plan for "Dream of Red Mansions" did not include Yifei's name.

Then I think of the coquettish tone in which Yifei said that day, "It's all your boss's fault."

Yang Siwei belatedly realized a possibility.

"She is pregnant and will be back next month." Li Chen closed his eyes and said something that surprised and delighted Yang Siwei.

"Really, boss? Congratulations!" Yang Siwei was also happy for Liu Yifei.

With the child, her relationship with her boss became more solid.

The position of boss lady Yifei is even more entrenched and unshakable.

However, during Yifei's pregnancy, I have to keep a close eye and guard the door for Yifei.

There will definitely be some shameless bitches who will come to your door.

Li Chen nodded: "Nothing big has happened in the past few days."

Yang Siwei smiled and said, "We have nothing to do. Huayi's "The West Wind" held its premiere yesterday, but Director Wang stole the headlines."

Li Chen glanced at Yang Siwei in surprise and waited for her next words.

He knew that this year his Rongchen Pictures and Huayi were in an all-out war.

There are battles every month, but how can "Ip Man" be afraid of "The Wind Rises", especially since it is the third film that is the most popular.

Yang Siwei explained with a smile: "Since the release of Detective Dee and our Charlotte, Fist of Fury has not been able to keep up, and the final box office in mainland China was only 1.15 million."

“It’s not even half as good as Detective Dee, and it can’t even be compared with our Charlotte.”

"Yesterday at noon, Zhen Zidan tore his face off and posted four Weibo posts in a row."

"In addition to blaming the film crew for cutting too much, they also pointed the finger directly at Guangguang."

"And it's clearly stated that Guangguang is not as good as Huayi. If Huayi had distributed the film, it's very likely that the box office of Detective Dee and Fist of Fury would have been swapped!"

"Even Chen Jiashang, who had previously supported Zhen Zidan, couldn't sit still and responded to Zhen Zidan, saying that Zhen Zidan was also one of the main creators, he was the action director, and everyone needed to review."

"When dogs bite each other, their mouths are full of fur. Will Lao Wang remain indifferent?" Li Chen interjected.

"Of course, Mr. Wang's subordinate Zhang Zhao praised Zhen Zidan again and praised him for his outstanding performance." Yang Siwei found it funny when he talked about it.

Li Chen shook his head and chuckled: "It seems that once again, Zhen Zidan is still so arrogant that he dares to offend Lao Wang."

"If Lao Wang scolds you, it's not necessarily a bad thing, but if he praises you, then you have to be careful."

"I think so too, boss." Yang Siwei said with a smile.

Li Chen now seriously suspected that it was perhaps because of Zhen Zidan's reckless behavior that the bad reputation and fermented public opinion of any film starring Zhen Zidan always had a hint of light in the future.

Lao Wang is the ancestor of public opinion warfare.

You, an actor from Hong Kong, dare to criticize Guang Guang. You really don’t know how to write the word “king”.

"The Golden Horse Awards have announced the shortlist. I heard from you that I didn't sign up for Passengers, but Brother Hua's The Invincible is on the shortlist."

"Director Han originally hoped that Passengers could win the Golden Rooster Award, but I told him that you didn't want to compete with Earthquake for the Golden Rooster Award, and Director Han was speechless immediately." Yang Siwei suddenly laughed.
At the premiere, Wu Yue and Zhang Jin, who played Zhang Tianzhi, walked towards Li Chen together.

Li Chen was still a little dazed while watching it, because the role of Zhang Tianzhi in his previous life was played by Zhang Jin.

When Lu Yang chose Zhang Tianzhi, Li Chen and he both chose Wu Yue.

After dealing with the two of them for a few words, Wang Changtian arrived.

Lao Wang was indeed not someone who could be easily dealt with. He spat inwardly, "Damn it! I have been playing with eagles all my life, but I was pecked in the eye by an eagle."

"Now I finally understand what you meant by "feeding all your affection to the dogs"!"

Li Chen smiled and said, "It's not too late to understand now."

Wang Changtian snorted coldly: "Let's wait and see, isn't his "Guan Yunchang" going to be finished soon?"

Of course Li Chen understood what Lao Wang meant.

This Zhen Zidan is really unlucky, if Li Chen remembers correctly.

It seems that Jiang Wen, that restless guy, is also the leading actor in this drama.

By then, Lao Wang will stab him in the back secretly and Jiang Wen will slap him in the face openly, and Zhen Zidan will probably be three inches shorter again.

Li Chen still applied for an extension for "Charlotte". After one month of release, the box office has reached 8.35 million yuan, and now it can still take in around 700 million yuan per day.

If I can't fulfill the dream of 900 million girls, I can still strive for a box office of 900 million.

As for the impact on "Ip Man 3", it is actually not that big.

"Avatar" was able to remain the box office champion for more than ten weeks because of the support of IMAX and 3D versions.

The impact of other postponed 2D films on blockbusters is generally negligible.

What's more, "Ip Man 3" has an audience base.

Especially this one, with the addition of a boxing champion who loves to bite people's ears, it has really piqued the interest of movie fans.

On the first day of its release, "Ip Man 3" earned 2450 million.

The audience was thrilled to watch the several-minute Chinese and Western Kung Fu showdown between Tyson and Zhang Jin.

As for "The West Wind Blows", Wang Zhonglei fell silent.

Li Chen asked Yang Siwei about the screening rate and attendance rate of "The West Wind" and got a rough idea in his mind.

In fact, when Li Chen learned about the main actors of this play, he had a pessimistic view of the play.

The biggest star is actually the worst Venice Film Festival winner: It’s Raining.

Coupled with this is Wu Jing, who was not yet a Wolf Warrior, and Ni Dahong, who had not yet become Su Daqiang.

How can such a lineup compete with "Ip Man 3"?

With Tyson's powerful punch, all three of them except Wu Jing would probably foam at the mouth.

Sure enough, when the first week's box office statistics were released, "Ip Man 3" grossed 1.35 million in four days.

"The Wind Rises" and the delayed "Charlotte" tied at 2750 million.

Wang Zhonglei really wanted to transform into Daimon Goro and pound the ground and roar: Fuck your mother!

"Shame on you! How shameful! It feels like an impossible task to beat him once!" Wang Zhonglei's heart was bleeding.

Apart from "The Great Earthquake" this year, Huayi has not seen any return on its profits.

After all, Huayi still has to rely on Feng Xiaogang.

"Don't look for him next time when it rains. He can't carry the box office. What's the use of having a big name? It's better to find a handsome newcomer instead of him." Wang Zhongjun hit the nail on the head.

Wang Zhonglei sighed deeply and now he can only hope that "If You Are the One 2" can make a comeback.

Wu Bin took "The Lost Tomb" on a national roadshow.

Li Chen's "The Invisible Guest" is also about to start filming.

I met Chen Sicheng at the company, who had just completed the post-production of "Snow Leopard".

It can be heard that Chen Sicheng cherishes this opportunity very much.

"It's not easy to become a director after being a good actor, but you and Xu Zheng are two exceptions. I'm optimistic about you. Come on." Li Chen encouraged Chen Sicheng.

Chen Sicheng was extremely happy: "Thank you Director Li, I won't let you down."
