Chapter 518 Making a Judgment
Li Chen stayed in Nanjing for only half a day before flying back to the capital.

Before returning to Beijing, Li Chen made a special call to Robert, the CEO of Disney.

Two days later, a piece of news finally revealed the reason why the Disney CEO and Li Chen met in Beijing more than a year ago.

Sina Entertainment News

"Liu Yifei lends her voice to Disney animation!"

"Yesterday, Disney announced an exciting news that the famous Chinese actress Liu Yifei will be the voice of the main character Elsa, the Snow Queen, in the animated film Frozen."

"What is striking is the publicity photo of Liu Yifei dubbing for Princess Elsa that was released yesterday. She was wearing a gorgeous aqua blue princess dress and looked stunning."

"The aqua blue princess dress exudes a dreamy atmosphere, which is a perfect match for the Snow Queen. Liu Yifei stood in front of the green screen with her long hair simply tied up and her posture elegant and generous. This image made it hard for people to believe that she was just dubbing and not the real Princess of Arendelle."

Disney revealed that when the president of Disney attended the birthday party of Liu Yifei, Crystal Wu, a few years ago, he thought her voice was very suitable for dubbing cartoons.

"Our meeting in Beijing two years ago made this collaboration possible."

As soon as the news that Liu Yifei would dub for Disney animation was revealed, it immediately became a hot topic on Weibo and the front page of the entertainment section of portal websites.

Especially for "Frozen", which has been in preparation since 08, this news made countless Disney fans cheer.

Liu Yifei's fans and Disney fans flocked to leave messages under Liu Yifei's Weibo.

Looking forward to Liu Yifei's Snow Queen!

Netizens exclaimed that the case had been solved.

"It turns out that the reason Leo and Robert met in Beijing two years ago was because of the Snow Queen!"

"If you really want to marry someone, marry my brother Chen. Don't talk about the Eighth Prince. How can the Eighth Prince compare to Brother Chen!"

"This resource is really amazing. Zhang Ziyi found Vivi, and she thought she was a rich man, but in the end she got nothing. She lost both the wife and the army. It's really frustrating to compare yourself to others!"

"The Hollywood dream that is out of reach for Chinese actresses is within reach for Liu Yifei."

The soul-searching comments from netizens broke the defenses of countless female stars.

Especially Zhang Ziyi. First, Wang Xueqi and Kara Hui were crowned emperor and queen in Berlin, which was a critical blow to her.

But everyone at this Berlin Film Festival knows that when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey will be king.

With no competitive rivals, Li Chen's "The Invisible Guest" naturally dominated the market.

All I can say is that Li Chen was extremely lucky to have chosen this year to come to Berlin.

Zhang Ziyi finally admitted the fact that she and Vivi broke up.

But before Zhang Ziyi could catch her breath, the second round of critical hits hit her even while she was lying down.

"Lingling, please arrange for me to spread the news of my date with Qishan." Zhang Ziyi seemed to be desperate and was trying every possible means.

"Ah?" Agent Ji Lingling opened her mouth wide

Zhang Ziyi's eyebrows were raised: "What?! Hurry up and go!"

"Okay, okay." Ji Lingling ran away in a daze.

It is true that Zhang Ziyi and Mr. Huo are dating again, but if you say they have reunited, you are deceiving yourself.

She understood what Zhang Ziyi meant. It was nothing more than directing and acting in a play by herself. Then Zhang Ziyi neither admitted nor refused, which was equivalent to tacit consent.

Mr. Huo, on the other side, would not sabotage Zhang Ziyi because of their old friendship.

But, is this useful?

Ji Lingling felt that Zhang Ziyi had gone insane, especially since Vivi had dealt her such a heavy blow this time.

He lost his life and his reputation, but in the end got nothing.

That Israeli tycoon is smarter than Sun Wukong.

It's really freeloading.

Fan Qiaoqiao also had his defense broken.

I have just become the focus of attention of the media and the industry because of the great success of "Guan Yin Shan" in both word-of-mouth and box office.

Another wave of film contracts and endorsements came her way.

Before she had the chance to enjoy this wonderful vanity, she was brutally suppressed by Liu Yifei, who was pregnant and about to give birth.

The report says that Disney's CEO thinks Liu Yifei is suitable for animation dubbing, but I'm afraid even a fool wouldn't believe it.

Anyone with a bit of common sense would know that this was the result of Brother Chen’s efforts behind the scenes.

This is top capital!

It is the only one of its kind in the country, and Huayi has to stand aside.

As soon as this news came out, Huayi’s “H” plan became a joke.

Although Liu Yifei knew the news in advance.

But I was still confused by this news.

All major media outlets want to conduct telephone or face-to-face interviews.

In particular, Chen Luyu called Liu Yifei directly.

Since Chen Luyu got the contact information of Li Chen and Liu Yifei at the premiere of "Thieves" at the Great Hall of the People.

Chen Luyu and Liu Yifei quickly became close and became friends.

"Xixi, your fans have been missing you so much during the past six months of your pregnancy. How about I pay a home visit to you and Director Li?" Chen Luyu suddenly had an idea.

"Ah? Home visit?" Liu Yifei couldn't figure it out for a moment.

"Yes, in fact, our program does not have to be broadcast in the studio. For Director Li, we can make it convenient for him."

"You can choose a company or residence. Don't worry. I guarantee as a friend that your address will never be disclosed."

"But, but do I look camera-friendly now?" Liu Yifei was a little hesitant and excited.

In fact, she hasn't changed much now. Apart from the weight gain, her appearance is still outstanding. But she is not mentally prepared to accept the interview with a big belly.

"What's inappropriate? Maybe you are exactly what your fans and netizens want to see." Chen Luyu spoke eloquently, which made Liu Yifei feel moved.

"You're just fooling me. Li Chen often says that a woman will become stupid for three years after pregnancy. I can't make the decision on this matter. I have to ask him." Liu Yifei smiled and pushed the ball to Li Chen.

"Of course. If Director Li didn't agree, I wouldn't dare to go." Chen Luyu joked.

At the same time, Li Chen was being interviewed by Time in the company office.

There were translators on both sides and the conversation was quite casual.

The two people who were interviewing and being interviewed were like old friends who had not seen each other for a long time, sitting with their legs crossed and chatting.

"Director Li, it's nice to meet you again."

"Me too."

"You are a writer, screenwriter, composer, director, producer, and wealthy person."

"You are already full of legends, and now you are only 29 years old."

"Our Western media call you 'the miracle of the mysterious Eastern country', especially your outstanding achievements in film."

"Last year, China's total box office exceeded 120 billion, and your Rongchen Pictures alone accounted for nearly a quarter of that, which can be said to be the backbone of the industry."

“Is there anything you can share with us?”

Li Chen nodded and smiled: "The rapid development of Chinese films is inseparable from the support of policies. Even if there is no me, Li Chen, there will be others."

"As for the box office, this depends on the huge base of potential moviegoers in our country."

"120 billion is just the beginning, not the end"

“If there is a miracle, then the one who creates it must be someone who follows the general trend of history, not just one person.”

The reporter from Time nodded repeatedly as he listened to the translator's explanation.

Director Li doesn't look like a young man in his twenties at all. Instead, he has the feeling of being mature beyond his years.

When Li Chen returned to the villa, he heard his wife talking about Chen Luyu's interview.

Originally, he asked Disney to announce Miss Liu's dubbing in order to increase the popularity of Miss Liu during her pregnancy.

As long as you are still in the circle, these are unavoidable.

Unless you quit the entertainment industry and become a wealthy wife.

On the 17th, "The Invisible Guest" was released nationwide.

Domestic audiences finally got to see this mysterious suspense drama.

It earned 2650 million on the first day of its release, surpassing the first week box office of "Guan Yin Shan".

Word of mouth immediately made it a hit.

"This is a pure suspense film, and it is also wrapped with parental love. No one can match Leo's writing skills!"

"That's all right! This ending is totally unexpected."

“The big screen is so stunning, and the actors’ micro-expressions are all clues.”

“I burst into tears after experiencing the thrilling plot twists. It’s an unprecedented suspense film experience!”

"The film is like a high-speed train. It's hard to get off the train easily. It's full of interesting moments and has perfect logic."

Not only did netizens and audiences praise this suspense film, but celebrities from all walks of life also came out to praise "The Invisible Guest". Jiang Wen even said that Li Chen's brain cells were so powerful that they were abnormal.

Jack Ma also praised Li Chen on Weibo for his meticulous logical thinking and for taking the dramatic reversal to a new level.

For a time, the scene where imported films dominated the market in March became a flash in the pan.

Netizens joked: If Leo doesn't come out, who will compete with him?
Jiang Wen called Li Chen directly.

"What's wrong with your brain? I was still racking my brains for the script for the sequel to "Bullet", and you wrote "The Invisible Guest"!" Jiang Wen's hearty voice came from the phone.

"Why are you pretending! Bullet is a huge success, and you are racking your brains and you probably don't know how to choose an investor."

"Ah? Hahaha, I really can't hide anything from you. You know what, I'm really fed up with these big bosses lately."

"What do they know about movies? It's just a lot of fucking money."

Jiang Wen's sequel to the Beiyang series has become a hot topic in the industry.

Yinghuang, Huayi, Wanda, and Xiaoma all flocked to it.

Most people can't get involved in Li Chen's films.

But Jiang Wen can.

"If you are free recently, come and sit with me and give me some advice. Scripts are your strong point."

Jiang Wen meant it sincerely when he said this.

I thought so much that my head went bald, and it took me a year or two to finish a good book.

Li Chen has several every year.

Each one of them is not much worse than "Bullet", which makes Jiang Wen unable to accept it.

He didn't attend the premiere of "The Invisible Guest", but he and his wife went to see it on the first day of its release.

He only thought of the final ending at the end.

Li Chen did not intend to really go to Jiang Wen's invitation. Jiang Wen was extremely narcissistic and would not rashly comment on his script.

Maybe this guy will turn against you.

"One Step Away" was Jiang Wen's second Waterloo.

Feng Xiaogang's CNN interview transcript and Li Chen's appearance on the cover of Time Asia magazine again made headlines almost one after the other.

But the impact is quite the opposite.
