The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 764 Do You Want Alibaba Shares?
The red carpet was filled with the constant cheers of fans.

"EXO!!"

It was a new Korean boy band, Wu Qianlu Han, Zhang Yixing and others got out of the car.

"Crack, click, click!"

Wu Qian posed facing the red carpet, wearing metal earrings, a necklace, and a custom-made pink GUCCI suit.

Seeing many female fans behind the staff staring at him in surprise and joy, he felt proud and tilted his head.

"Our popularity and presence are not inferior to Lu Yuan's."

Lu Han turned sideways to face the camera, glanced casually at the fans on both sides of the red carpet, and immediately curled her lips.

Ever since he signed a contract with Tencent Video to star in "Fights Break Sphere" and won several music awards in South Korea, people with the surname Wu have started to become arrogant and can no longer distinguish between the big and small Wang.

For example, the proportion of posters in the fan group at the scene, many female fans held posters of EXO members as well as Lu Yuan's posters.

But there are still many fans who only hold posters of Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi, but not EXO.

In other words, most people who like EXO also like Lu Yuan, but those who like Lu Yuan may not necessarily like EXO.

How could Wu Qian have the courage to compete with Lu Yuan?

And Lu Han knows his own business. Although their group is popular, the time is too short. The reason why the fans reacted so strongly is due to the hundreds of professional cheering teams deployed by the company in advance.

“Okay, stop being so conceited and let’s go.” He changed his look and cast his gaze towards Girls’ Generation behind him.

At this point, South Korea’s two most popular idol groups appeared one after another.

When Yoona and others walked onto the red carpet in the same short skirts and waved to both sides, the air suddenly heated up.

The male fans on both sides were holding their mobile phones to take pictures, with veins bulging on their necks.

“Yoona! Here! Look here!”

Listening to the cheers around her, Yoona couldn't help but feel excited.

In the middle of the year, "The Heirs" and "My Love from the Star" were broadcast at the same time, and the former's statistics were inferior.

The professor played by Lu Yuan swept across Asia like wildfire, killing several neighboring countries. Although Lee Min Ho had the advantage of being a native of South Korea, he was unable to resist the edge and had no power to resist.

But even so, he still reached the peak of his career.

After all, apart from the phenomenal "My Love from the Star", "The Heirs" is also a hit. Relatively speaking, Lee Min Ho's value in the Chinese market has skyrocketed, and he has made over 100 million yuan in half a year.

Limited by the small market and mechanism, Korean artists' income is generally not high.

The money prospects of the Chinese market have opened the eyes of many Korean film companies and producers. They have also deeply understood the meaning of Jang Nara's words that it is easy to make money in China, and they are drooling with envy.

Therefore, they are actively trying to please the Chinese audience and market.

Girls' Generation is an idol girl group. There is never a shortage of beauties in the entertainment industry, and they are introduced one after another like leeks.

Although they are popular, they can only enjoy the rice of their youth for a few years. If they don't transform, they will just wait for death.

With this in mind, Yoona and others worked even harder, sticking out their chests and raising their hips, posing gracefully, and even blowing kisses to the camera, making their fans scream.

After Girls' Generation, it was the turn of the crew of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

When Zhou Xinchi, Huang Bo, Shu Qi, Luo Zhixiang and others walked onto the red carpet, the scene became lively again.

It’s true that Girls’ Generation is popular, but Stephen Chow has won countless fans with his nonsensical comedy style and is the youthful memory of many people.

However, in recent years, he has rarely appeared in public and did not even attend the Weibo Night a few days ago.

Some time ago, when the news spread online that Zhou Xinchi would attend the first PPS annual ceremony, many viewers' first thought was that they didn't believe it.

But he really came, with gray hair, waving his hand and smiling.

"Master Xing, I will support you!!"

"Master Xing!!"

"Brother Bo, why aren't you wearing Baleno today?"

"."

Liu Yan and Xie Nan from Guangguang are the hosts of this year's red carpet.

After Zhou Xinchi and others left their names on the autograph wall, the two of them started a topic around "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" according to PPS's special instructions, giving it enough exposure.

"Wow!" Liu Yan held the microphone, looked around and pretended to be surprised.

"The fans at the scene are really enthusiastic. It seems that everyone knows that Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons will be released soon. Tell me loudly, when exactly is it?"

"No. 31." Fans on both sides shouted in unison.

Zhou Xinchi tilted his upper body slightly and said to the microphone: "That's right, on January 1, the first day of the Lunar New Year, Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons will be in theaters and we'll see you there."

"Whoosh!"

“See you there!!”

After the scene calmed down a bit, Xie Nan continued to ask: "Master Xing, there are many clips related to Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons released online. While everyone is looking forward to it, many netizens also think that this adaptation of Journey to the West seems a bit subversive. Is that right?"

The promotion of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" has officially begun.

Tang Sanzang, with dishevelled hair and ragged clothes, appears in handsome ancient costume, Miss Duan with messy hair tied behind her head, Zhu Bajie with ugly face, and Sun Wukong with sparse hair and gray face.
Especially the three leading actors, their looks are very different from their previous screen impressions, appearing particularly exaggerated, which naturally sparked heated discussions.

Zhou Xinchi smiled and admitted: "You are right. The image of Tang Monk and Sun Wukong is very different from the past. I thought about it before the adaptation. This is a risk, but the essence of creation is to be different, new, and breakthrough. I just follow this essence."

"Can you tell me about the box office expectations for this film?"

Before Zhou Xinchi could answer, the fans started cheering.

"One billion!!"

"Two billion!!"

"Of course the more the better." Zhou Xinchi smiled.

When he was initially adapting the script, he thought that a box office of over 7 million yuan would be enough, but after parting ways with Huayi and inviting Lu Yuan to join, his psychological expectation rose to 10 billion yuan.

But there is no need to say these, the King of Comedy cannot be slapped in the face.

Xie Nan didn't intend to ask further, and changed the subject: "Fans are very curious, why didn't Stephen Chow play a role in this movie?"

"I'm old. Look at my hair."

"How could that be? It would be a shame for an actor as good as you not to play a role. As a loyal fan, I won't agree to that."

Zhou Xinchi laughed: "Of course I want to act in it. If I participate in it, I can earn more money as an actor. Why not?"

"But being a director is very busy, and I think they are the best combination right now. Boss Lu is a master actor, needless to say. If he debuted in my era, he would have been called a superstar. I don't think I would have the courage to do it."

"And Huang Bo. Everyone praises me as the King of Comedy, but after watching Huang Bo's performance, I think he is the King of Comedy Kings!"

Xie Nan looked at Liu Yan and laughed. Who said that Zhou Xinchi was difficult to talk to and had a withdrawn personality? Look at his mouth.

"King of kings?" Huang Bo didn't buy the flattery.

He gained a lot from his high emotional intelligence speech at the Golden Horse Awards ceremony. Zhou Xinchi's excessive praise was not in his favor, so he took over the conversation with a puzzled look on his face.

"Master Xing, do you want to eat some sausage? How about this, wait for me to call Lu Yuan to buy some. He is still hesitating in the back."

"Hahaha." Everyone laughed. Zhou Xinchi also laughed. The red carpet time was limited and there were many guests. A group of people were about to turn around and go backstage.

Suddenly, waves of noise came from both sides of the red carpet.

Everyone knew who would be walking on the red carpet next, but they still couldn't help but slow down and look back.

But then a black nanny car stopped in front of the red carpet, and a staff member trotted over to open the door.

After a while, Lu Yuan got out of the taxi.

He was wearing a simple slim-fit suit, and his glance around brought cheers.

Liu Shishi followed closely behind, bending over and coming out, with her curly hair casually spread out. After getting out of the car, she took Lu Yuan's arm with confidence, her figure swaying, in a black long dress with the hem sweeping the red carpet. She waved her little hands, and a scream like a tsunami rang out.

The sound was so loud that even the guests who arrived early could hear it clearly.

“Poetry and distance!!”

"Zhou Yi!"

"husband!!"

“Goddess Bai Qian, my wife, ahhhhh!!”

Lin Yuna and others were whispering to each other, and the topic revolved around the professor and "My Love from the Star". The same was true for the EXO members. Several Korean members asked the team leader Wu Qian, and Wu Qian's hesitant explanation was only made by Lu Han's playful look, which made him wish he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

I just felt four big words floating in the sky: I brought humiliation upon myself.

On the red carpet, Liu Shishi looked at a male fan in the crowd who called her "Dog Thing Husband" and poked him quietly with her finger: "Hey, did you notice that there are a lot of male fans who came over today?"

Lu Yuan also noticed the chubby male fan. He had a gentle smile on his face, but his pace quickened unconsciously: "It's probably because of 'Cliff'."

"Oh." Liu Shishi nodded.

In fact, since Lu Yuan got his start in spy war dramas, he has been widely praised by male audiences. The proportion of male fans in his fan base may not be as high as that of Hu Can, but the scale of his fan base is larger, which means that he has many more male fans than Hu Can.

According to data released by PPS, the number of male paying users increased significantly during the broadcast of "The Cliff", reaching millions.

Amid cheers, the two walked to the autograph wall and signed their names.

Xie Nan stood aside and was about to ask a question, but the fans on both sides could no longer contain their curiosity and shouted in unison, even many non-Lu Yuan fans joined in the fun.

"Get the certificate!"

"Get the certificate!!!"

At the same time, the PPS live broadcast barrage seemed to be going crazy, and the words "get the certificate" filled the entire screen.

Xu Weifeng was following the live broadcast. According to the news in the group, when Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi walked on the red carpet, the number of users in the live broadcast room reached 20 million in a short period of time, and was still rising.

Even though the technical department issued a military order, he was still worried.

Xie Nan was startled by the sudden shouting, but then she understood the fans' feelings. Since the photos of Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi appearing in the Civil Affairs Bureau were exposed a few days ago, the two have never accepted any interviews of any form, which made the onlookers very anxious.

Everyone, including her, was curious.

She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, hesitated for a moment between Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi, and then handed the microphone to Liu Shishi's lips.

"Well, everyone is curious whether they have obtained the marriage certificate or not."

Liu Shishi glanced at Lu Yuan, nodded shyly, and said "hmm".

The voice was so low that only Xie Nan, who was standing beside him, heard it. His eyes suddenly widened.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan put his arm around Liu Shishi's waist, faced the camera, and mysteriously took out a red book from his pocket. He grinned proudly, like a general who had won a battle.

"Well, let me introduce you to my wife, legally."

Even though they were prepared, when this guy took out his marriage certificate in public, the scene suddenly became silent, and then a loud roar broke out!
"Fuck, they really got the certificate!"

"Oh my god, I'm heartbroken, my husband is gone."

"You're a beast, not a human being. I don't want to eat dog food. Woo woo woo, I'm so envious. When will it be my turn?"

"I declare that from now on, I am a woman that even Lu Yuan cannot have."

"Crack, click, click!"

After Lu Yuan announced the news, he saw that the fans at the scene were very excited. He did not answer other questions and quickly pulled Liu Shishi into the backstage.

In just such a short time, the guests in the venue had learned through various channels that the two had obtained their marriage certificate.

"No, they really received it. I thought it was fake news to promote Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons."

"Lu Yuan doesn't need to do that. He has never hyped up his private life for movies or TV series since he started working in the industry."

"."

In the guest seats, Liu Yifei looked at the two people entering the venue and sighed: "I didn't expect that she would win in the end."

After saying that, he waited for a long time without receiving a reply from the person beside him. He turned around and found Zhou Yang staring at the Weibo interface on his mobile phone in a daze, looking a little depressed.

She glanced and saw a photo on Weibo of Lu Yuan hugging Liu Shishi and taking out their marriage certificate.

In addition, Liu Yifei also noticed that the chain that was previously used to decorate Zhou Yang’s mobile phone was missing.

She remembered that there was a brown DIY bamboo stick hanging at the end of the cell phone chain. Zhou Yang had changed at least a dozen cell phones in the past seven or eight years.

But I couldn't bear to replace the bamboo stick.

It was only after Zhou Yang got drunk that Liu Yifei found out that the two lines of text on the fortune stick were for her first role as the leading actress when she went up the mountain to ask for marriage when she was filming "King Gou Jian of Yue" in Shaoxing.

She had always been curious about why the other party kept the sticks, and every time she was asked, Zhou Yang would always change the subject and talk about something else.

It was not until now that Liu Yifei vaguely understood.

She sighed and looked towards the front row again, and suddenly found that Lu Yuan was standing with a short man, and they seemed to be having a pleasant conversation.

Alibaba founder, Ma Yun!

She was stunned, and for a moment she couldn't understand her old classmate. One was a billionaire whose group was about to be listed and whose net worth might exceed 100 billion yuan, and the other was an actor and the president of a film and television company. They were not on the same level no matter how you looked at it.

In the front row, CEOs of various companies sat together, such as Alibaba's Ma Yun, PPS President Xu Weifeng, Guangguang's Wang Changtian, Huayi's Wang Zhonglei, Weibo's Cao Guowei, Wanda's Ye Ning, Wang Sicong, and Huace.
After Lu Yuan greeted a few people, he thought for a while and sat down next to Ma Yun.

To be honest, this position is a bit high-profile, but fortunately he is still the helmsman of Yuanfang Media.

Tonight's hosts are Sa Beining and Oriental TV female host Wang Guan.

The lights on the scene changed and the two people took the stage, which meant that the 2013 PPS Annual Film and Television Festival officially began!
After the host introduced the guests, Xu Weifeng, as the president of PPS, took the stage first to deliver a speech.

He did not give a long speech on the achievements of PPS, but stated the purpose of PPS holding the ceremony, which is to recognize and award honors to works and artists that have performed outstandingly in the entire online film and television drama market over the past year.

After Xu Weifeng left the stage, Girls' Generation came on stage and performed a passionate dance, which made the atmosphere lively.

Lu Yuan's mind was not on the stage. He knew that Ma Yun came here most likely for PPS. The potential and market position shown by PPS would have a certain effect on promoting Alibaba's stock price after its listing.

But he doesn't really want to be associated with Ali.

"Clap clap clap!"

Girls' Generation's sexy dance ends.

Ma Yun blew a hooligan whistle, clapped his hands, turned his head, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Lu, Alibaba is about to go public, are you interested in shares?"
