[Could it achieve a grand slam? "Aftershock" sweeps the Golden Rooster Award nominations!]

Chen Yu receives another Best Director nomination, a dark horse at this year's Golden Rooster Awards!

Unrivaled! "Aftershock" leads with 9 nominations!

In a short time.

The entire internet is filled with news headlines about the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony.

In particular, none of the nominated works at this year's Golden Rooster Awards could beat "Aftershock".

It seems that, as the media reporters have said, they have taken on everything.

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei drove back home.

Perhaps because she had been too comfortable in the past few days, Liu Yifei felt a little uncomfortable suddenly returning to the bustling city.

Until the two returned home.

Liu Xiaoli and Shen Xiaoqin had already prepared dinner.

"Are you happy now?"

Upon hearing her mother's question, Liu Yifei's smile gradually brightened.

"They don't want to come back."

Chen Yu responded to Liu Xiaoli's question, which made Liu Yifei frown.

"If it weren't for work that forced me to come back, Yifei would really have settled down there."

Chen Yu's sarcastic remarks made everyone present laugh.

However, they were able to understand.

The two are very busy with work and have very little time to rest.

This time.

It would be good to have a place for them to relax.

"Haha, you're such a chatterbox."

"Go wash your hands and come eat."

Hearing Shen Xiaoqin's words, Chen Yu and Liu Yifei nodded and walked towards the restroom.

During this time, the two lived in their new house, and Chen Yu was basically in charge of cooking.

Relatively speaking.

Compared to meals at home, this is definitely a bit simple.

Ring ring—

Just as Chen Yu sat down, his phone rang.

It's Yang Lu.

"Brother Yu, the final box office figures for 'Aftershock' are out."

Judging from Yang Lu's tone, Chen Yu could roughly guess that "Aftershock" had a good final screening result.

Liu Yifei had already noticed the movements here.

I instinctively leaned closer, ready to hear the final box office results.

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei had discussed this, and there was some anticipation about it.

to be frank.

After just ten days of release, "Aftershock" had already surpassed 10 billion yuan in box office revenue.

This one-month extension of the film's run will definitely lead to great success.

"20.63 million."

what--

Liu Yifei's eyes widened in surprise, and even her breathing became somewhat rapid.

They hadn't been paying attention to the box office performance of "Aftershock" during this period, never expecting it to be so successful.

He turned his head to look at Chen Yu beside him.

The latter didn't show much reaction on his face, as if he was determined to get everything.

The family members present remained silent.

They were afraid of disturbing Chen Yu's call with the other end.

"Yes, everything is proceeding according to plan."

After saying that, Chen Yu hung up the phone with Yang Lu, and Liu Yifei couldn't wait to pounce on him.

Good things come in pairs.

"Honey, you're so amazing."

One sentence left the family members present looking at each other in bewilderment.

The two children have just returned and haven't explained why.

Coupled with that phone call just now, it clearly aroused the family's immense curiosity.

"Sisi, what good thing is happening in pairs?"

Her mother's question finally brought Liu Yifei back to her senses.

"Ah! I forgot."

"Aftershock" has been nominated for the Golden Rooster Awards.

"A total of nine nominations."

Upon hearing Liu Yifei's words, everyone present widened their eyes.

"That's amazing?"

"Xiao Chen, it looks like he's about to win another award!"

Liu Xiaodong gave Chen Yu a thumbs up; his niece's boyfriend had truly impressed them.

In the past two years, the Golden Rooster Awards have been quite favorable to Chen Yu.

at this point.

Even people outside the circle can see it clearly.

However, "Aftershock" truly deserved its reputation. Shen Xiaoqin and Liu Xiaoli went to the cinema to watch the movie and almost cried themselves to death in the theater.

"There's another piece of good news."

Liu Yifei looked at Chen Yu in front of her, her eyes filled with pride.

Seeing his girlfriend's reaction, Chen Yu then turned to look at his family.

"The final box office figures for 'Aftershock' have been released."

"20.63 million."

This truly stunned everyone present.

20 million?
This is an incredibly impressive achievement in the entire mainland entertainment industry.

"so much?"

Chen Peidong's face flushed slightly; he could hardly believe the result.

Even though his son had broken records one after another, he was still somewhat shocked when he heard about this achievement.

"Xiao Yu, you truly live up to your reputation as the son of the Chen family."

The praise from family members is undoubtedly the most sincere.

"You must have two drinks."

"I'm so happy today, my son is having a double celebration!"

Chen Peidong brought out his treasured wines, and when he looked at his son, his eyes even reddened slightly.

After several rounds of drinks...

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei went back upstairs.

The two leaned against each other, looking out the window.

"Honey, are you happy?"

The person in his arms asked a question instinctively, which made Chen Yu tighten his arms around them.

"Ah."

This joy is not just because of the achievements of "Aftershock", but because everything is finally coming to a conclusion.

"I thought 'Aftershock' would only gross around 15 billion at most."

"I never expected it to break through 20 billion."

Just thinking about this achievement made Liu Yifei feel gratified.

"This proves that our efforts were not in vain."

"I hope that more and more people will pay attention to earthquake disasters, so that they can at least save their lives when danger strikes."

Liu Yifei nodded.

"Joker will be released in eight days."

Are you nervous?

Liu Yifei looked up at Chen Yu above her.

To be honest, even Liu Yifei couldn't calm down when it came to "Joker".

The films "Joker" and "Mulan" can be said to embody all their aspirations.

If they succeed, it will definitely help them fulfill their promise.

***
the next day.

Yu Xin announced a message.

All box office revenue from "Aftershock" will be donated to post-disaster reconstruction projects.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

This news caused a stir throughout the industry.

It was just donated like that?
This time, not only movie fans and audiences, but even people in the entertainment industry have been shocked.

This was something Chen Yu and Liu Yifei had discussed long ago.

The purpose of filming "Aftershock" was to promote earthquake preparedness in China. This was true from beginning to end.

Chen Yu did not consider "Tangshan Earthquake" as a source of profit.

After deducting value-added tax and surcharges, there should be a net box office of 18.92 billion yuan.

The theater chains and cinemas will take 57%, and as for the remaining 8.14 million, after deducting the actors' salaries, Chen Yu and Liu Yifei have decided to donate it all.

"Good heavens! What kind of deity is this?"

"This is a once-in-a-century opportunity! I will follow Brother Yu for the rest of my life."

"In the entertainment industry, who else has such courage?"

"I can hardly believe my eyes, so much money just donated directly?"

Fortunately, Yu Xin was both the producer and distributor of the film "Aftershock," so at least a considerable amount of income could be saved.

The whole country was deeply moved.

As the media reporters have said, no one can indeed do what Chen Yu did.

At the same time.

Huayi Brothers.

Wang Zhonglei was sitting in front of his computer when a flood of trending news headlines came into view.

"What a brilliant plan!"

"This is clearly paving the way for Joker."

Wang Zhonglei has been feeling somewhat anxious lately.

Ever since he learned that "Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame" would be released at the same time as "Joker," he has been extremely depressed.

Putting everything else aside, Joker came on strong this time, giving them no chance to back down.

The Dark Knight has undoubtedly ignited everyone's anticipation.

As for now.

They used the movie "Aftershock" to reveal this trick.

"Chen Yu is truly a meticulous man."

Wang Zhongjun looked at his younger brother.

He showed no emotion whatsoever regarding his current outburst of rage.

to be frank.

Chen Yu's actions were truly unparalleled.

Even if it were Huayi Brothers, they probably wouldn't have the courage to donate all the box office revenue of a movie.

This situation has long since transcended the principles of the entertainment industry.

"never mind."

"This matter has nothing to do with us, why get upset over such a trivial matter?"

In fact.

When Wang Zhongjun learned that "Joker" would be released at the same time as "Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame", he had already given up all hope.

He wasn't trying to boost the morale of others while diminishing his own.

Chen Yu's current strength has completely exceeded what they can accept.

It can be said that every single one of Chen Yu's works is far superior to theirs.

Even "The Grand Budapest Hotel," which flopped at the box office at the time, has now turned its reputation around and is hailed as a masterpiece.

This is Chen Yu!
The entire internet is flooded with reports about this incident.

Even the authorities have officially stepped in, reposting recent news headlines and directly praising Chen Yu's actions.

Not only that.

Whether it's Tangshan, Wenzhou, or Qinghai, which was recently struck by an earthquake.

All the people greatly praised Chen Yu's actions.

In an instant.

People's Daily Online, Xinhua News Agency, and CCTV all published reports praising Chen Yu.

In just one day, Chen Yu undoubtedly became a prominent figure throughout China.

Various media outlets have already swarmed around Yu Xin, all hoping to be the first to interview Chen Yu.

During this period, a series of explosive news stories have undoubtedly driven these media reporters to a frenzy, causing them to forget their inhibitions.

For them now, getting an exclusive interview with Chen Yu is basically a guarantee of their job security.

Liu Yifei had just woken up and glanced at the man beside her.

Chen Yu was still fast asleep.

The two were unaware of the fierce online storm that was brewing.

She tiptoed out of bed and went straight downstairs.

Everyone was in high spirits yesterday and drank a few too many drinks, so much so that Liu Yifei didn't eat a proper dinner.

I'm extremely hungry right now.

As soon as I went downstairs, I noticed that Shen Xiaoqin and Liu Xiaoli were gathered together discussing something.

Liu Yifei took the opportunity to move closer.

"Mom, what are you looking at?"

Upon hearing the voice beside her, Liu Xiaoli finally looked up at her daughter.

"Did Xiao Chen donate the box office revenue from 'Aftershock'?"

Seeing her mother's question, Liu Yifei nodded.

Then he walked towards the kitchen.

"We've discussed this before."

“Remove the value-added tax and the theater's share, as well as the actors' salaries.”

"The remaining money will all be donated to disaster relief and reconstruction."

This is undoubtedly an urgent matter.

"What's wrong, Mom?"

Liu Yifei looked at Liu Xiaoli and Shen Xiaoqin, wondering if her two mothers would agree with this approach.

"pretty good."

"Xiao Chen is far more courageous than we imagined."

Liu Xiaoli nodded.

Chen Yu mentioned this matter shortly after the release of "Aftershock".

I never expected that it would actually be possible to achieve this.

The three of them were chatting together.

As for Chen Yu, he had already come out of the room. When he woke up, he did not see Liu Yifei.

That's when he thought of going downstairs to look for it.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

As soon as Chen Yu stepped down, he noticed the gazes of Liu Yifei and the others.

Shen Xiaoqin and Liu Xiaoli were just looking at the news online.

As for now, I have to give it a thumbs up.

"Son, you're famous now."

Shen Xiaoqin's words made Chen Yu look at Liu Yifei.

After a moment's thought, he could roughly understand why his family reacted that way.

"Without even having time to discuss it with my family, Yifei and I made the decision right away."

Chen Yu came to Liu Yifei's side and sat down.

After glancing at the content on the phone, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

The information online had already exceeded his expectations.

The top ten trending topics were almost all about him and the movie "Aftershock".

Look—

"Even the government has stepped in to support us, which proves that our initial decision was correct."

Liu Yifei leaned against Chen Yu's chest.

The two read the online comments, and this time no one said Chen Yu was acting.

Liu Xiaoli looked at Chen Yu.

She was becoming increasingly satisfied with the man in front of her.

It is undoubtedly a blessing for her daughter to be with Chen Yu.

"By the way, Xiao Chen."

Liu Xiaoli's voice rang out, drawing Chen Yu's attention away from Liu Yifei's phone.

He subconsciously straightened up and looked over.

"Is your movie about to be released? We'll go to the theater to support you."

After hearing Liu Xiaoli's words, Chen Yu's expression changed slightly.

Watching "Joker"?
The thought of his family sitting in the theater watching him in "Joker" made him feel somewhat ridiculous.

to be frank.

He didn't plan to take his family to see the movie.

Besides not wanting my mother to worry, the main reason was that this movie was really depressing.

With both elderly people and children in the cast, and Joker being a restricted film, it is not suitable for the whole family to watch.

They noticed Chen Yu's hesitation.

Liu Yifei couldn't help but smile, knowing full well the reason behind her boyfriend's reaction.

She wanted to see how Chen Yu would respond. (End of Chapter)
