Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 216: The Sun Blood Reproduction Case

Gu Yongkeng called Li Chen, and Youku’s third round of financing began.

Li Chen and Big Wang will definitely follow.

Youku is now on a strong momentum, and even Wang Changtian will not fall behind.

Li Chen and Gu Yongkeng kept the secret.

Tell him that I will give him a surprise next year at the latest.

In fact, Gu Yongkeng had already felt it vaguely.

Ever since "Soldier Assault" became popular on Youku.

He saw one thing: long videos will be the main battlefield for video websites in the future.

The copyright dispute that Li Chen predicted to him in his early years would inevitably become the killer weapon in a life-and-death battle.

Then Rongchen Pictures, which holds countless copyrights, is the key to deciding this life-and-death battle.

Gu Yongkeng only hoped that when that day came, Li Chen’s asking price would not be too high!
After the National Day, "Assembly" and "The Warlords" began to gain momentum.

Press releases and news are flying everywhere.

Fan Qiaoqiao's "Apple" also began to work secretly.

The premiere will be held in Hong Kong Island at the end of the month and the film will be released first in Hong Kong Island.

The release date in mainland China is scheduled for the last day of November.

Although Yang Mi's "Wang Zhaojun" had average ratings, it had a good reputation.

Yang Mi herself has once again become the focus of netizens, with mixed reviews for her acting skills.

Less than two weeks after its release, "The Sun" was abandoned by theaters, with a total box office of 1520 million in mainland China.

This film, which is said to have cost 10 million US dollars, is far more than just a box office flop.

After the "steamed bun" incident, another "bloody incident" occurred. Jiang Wen encountered Chen Kaige and was embarrassed! "

Southern Weekend News

"The Sun follows in the footsteps of The Promise!"

It turns out that a few days ago, a 21-minute and 39-second spoof video titled "Butt Blood Case" appeared on the Internet.

The content is a spoof of "The Sun".

Since the author called himself Hu Gao, and the words "Special thanks to cousin Hu Ge" were written at the end of the film.

Many people think that this video was also made by Hu Ge.

Hu Ge quickly stood up and said: "Today, many reporters came to ask me, it was definitely not me who did it, I didn't even see it!"

However, this is different from the anger that Chen Kaige and Han Saping felt towards "Mantou" back then.

Jiang Wen and Yu Dong both laughed it off.

The crew of "Mei Lanfang" in Beijing.

The actors discovered that Director Chen was not in a good state again today.

Director Li won the Golden Lion that day, and Director Chen was just distracted.

Today, Director Chen is obviously like an active volcano that may explode at any time.

Even the simple line "The door is open" between Zhang Ziyi and Chen Hong.

Chen Hong and Zhang Ziyi were asked to stop more than a dozen times.

Director Chen didn't ask much of his wife Chen Hong.

He only nitpicked at Zhang Ziyi: "More sour! More sour!"

Everyone in the crew, including Li Ming, pretended not to see it.

Although Zhang Ziyi is a big star and has a bad temper, it depends on who she meets.

When you meet a great director like Chen Kaige, you have to be obedient.

International superstars like Cheng Long and Jet Li don't have the right to speak on the set.

Compared with the so-called big names in Hong Kong Island, they also lack confidence.

After returning home, Director Chen could no longer bear it and gasped for breath.

After gulping down a mouthful of water, Chen Kaige began to talk to his wife.

"Everything can be linked to The Promise! These reporters have nothing to do all day!"

"Damn it! So annoying!"

Chen Kaige couldn't even utter a swear word, as this was already the limit of his rage.

Jiang Wen’s movie “The Sun” flopped, and reporters called to interview him!
Chen Hong walked silently behind her husband and gently stroked his heaving back.

"Okay, don't be angry. Reporters everywhere are the same. If you were a nobody, they wouldn't surround you."

Chen Kaige was still breathing heavily. He turned to look at his wife who had a gentle face: "But they are going too far!"

"She always brings up 'The Promise' to talk about whenever she has the chance, as if I, Chen Kaige, have only filmed one 'The Promise'!" Chen Hong smiled slightly, buried her head in her husband's chest, hugged her old baby's waist, and continued to comfort her husband softly.

“Didn’t you say it yourself? It takes five or ten years to understand The Promise. After ten years, they will understand it.”

Chen Kaige was still angry: "I don't think they will understand it even if they live for a hundred years."

Chen Hong was also angry and pushed her husband away: "That's enough, is this never going to end?"

He kept saying "The door is open" and stopped more than ten times.

Zhang Ziyi said she wasn't tired, but she was tired just walking.

She was already very angry, and she tried to comfort her husband with kind words for a long time.

It’s still like this. Do you really think I don’t have menopause?

Chen Kaige was startled by his wife's sudden outburst.

Chen Kaige pulled the corner of his mouth unnaturally: "Hong, what's wrong with you? I was talking about those reporters, no, I wasn't talking about you."

Chen Hong snorted unhappily, "If you make me walk back and forth again tomorrow, don't get on my bed and sleep in the guest room!"

The old baby is completely depressed
"The Sun" was spoofed and flopped at the box office.

Hong Kong media then revealed that "The Sun" did not meet the requirements of the Hong Kong Island region.

It is not eligible for the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar.

Now the Sun has completely set.

"Thief" was released for nearly forty days, and the box office finally settled at 3.95 million, just one step away from 4 million.

But it really couldn't be shown anymore, so Han Saping and Li Chen discussed taking the movie off the screen.

Li Chen naturally would not have any objection.

A week later, "Thief" held a grand celebration banquet at the Diaoyutai Hotel.

Several major investors including China Film, Shanghai Film, Wanda, Light Media, as well as Tim from Chiyou and Richard from Warner all attended the event.

A number of leading actors including Charlize Theron and Monica also came from afar to celebrate.

Both Liu Yifei and Li Chen's crews took a day off.

Li Chen brought the artists from Rongchen Pictures, Yang Siwei and Deng Chao, two of Yi Xin Media's two most capable men, to Diaoyutai State Hotel one after the other.

As soon as he got out of the car, Yang Siwei poked his head out from the black Mercedes behind him and said, "Boss, wait for us."

Li Chen and his companions got out of the car and looked back, and saw Yang Siwei and Deng Chao walking towards them with smiles on their faces.

Li Chen couldn't help but joked: "Siwei, this dress is a good choice today, it makes you look thinner!"

Several women around couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Yang Siwei rolled his eyes and said, "Boss, this is the first time someone compliments me on my dress."

"It seems that no one has ever complimented me on anything I wear!"

Yang Mi stepped forward and took Yang Siwei's arm: "Alright, Mr. Yang, look at how my Wang Zhaojun has been scolded."

"I also feel now that no matter what I play or how I play it, there will always be people scolding me!"

The red carpet was lined with fans waving flowers and posters.

But most of them were calling Liu Yifei's name.

Several people walked onto the red carpet chatting and laughing, waving to fans on both sides, and cooperating with media cameras.

After hearing what Yang Mi said, Li Chen comforted her.

"Mi Mi, if you want to be famous, you must be accompanied by applause and booing."

"Xixi and Fan Qiaoqiao are probably the most popular female stars nowadays."

"But if you look back, when they became popular, there were not only flowers, but also a lot of rotten eggs!"

Yang Mi took Liu Yifei's arm and said with a smile, "That was in the past. Ever since Yifei got together with the senior, except for a few psychopaths, no one dared to throw rotten eggs at Yifei."

"Then you must throw Yuan Zi eggs at him, Senior!"

Zhou Xun, Tang Yan and Zhu Yawen all gave Yang Mi a thumbs up: "Mi Mi, great idea!"

Liu Yifei held Li Chen's arm, smiling, and said nothing.

Obviously Yang Mi's flattery touched her itch.

Li Chen smiled and said, "What I meant by this is to tell you that if you want to become famous, this is a necessary process."

"The entertainment industry is not afraid of people scolding you. The more people scold you, the more people pay attention to you. This is the prerequisite for becoming famous!"

"Your psychological endurance needs to be improved."

"To be honest, look at Xixi and Fan Qiaoqiao. Their psychological endurance is the best among all female stars."

"For so many years, I have been very calm. No matter how you spread rumors and insult me, I will not reply to you and just treat you as air." Li Chen smiled and glanced at Miss Liu, who had a rosy face.

"The other one is going all out, doing cosmetic surgery appraisals and sending lawyers' letters frequently."

Before Li Chen finished speaking, Zhou Xun couldn't help but interrupt: "Yifei is indeed a Buddhist, but Director Li, you are going all out for Yifei."
