Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 615 The Actor I Least Want to Work With

In its first week of release, "The Hunger Games" crushed other domestic films in March with a box office of 1.35 million.

However, this box office result is still a bit shabby compared with North America. After all, the film's performance in North America is too impressive.

With the global hit of "The Hunger Games", Liu Yifei has become extremely popular. Not only is she extremely popular in mainland China, she has also gained a large number of young fans in Europe and the United States.

Her global fame surpasses that of two of Mou's girls, Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi.

At the London premiere, she even took the opportunity to become Bulgari's global spokesperson.

When Miss Liu called, Li Chen was having dinner at Fangshan Villa with Leon and his young model girlfriend.

A large number of Leon fans who heard the news gathered outside Fangshan Villa.

The number of visitors to Beihai Park has skyrocketed.

It is just a coincidence that "Vientiane Island" is about to start filming and the 3D "Titanic" is about to be released. Jack was still unreasonably handsome back then.

Even the waitresses at Fangshan Villa all had their eyes shining when they saw Leon now.

Leon was so arrogant that he said shamelessly in front of his young model girlfriend and Li Chen: "Li, you know what? When I saw Jack, I was also impressed by how handsome I was back then!"

After saying that, he casually stroked his golden hair, looking like he deserved a beating.

Supermodel girlfriend Erin Heatherton's eyes were full of infatuation.

Li Chen couldn't stand it anymore, so he smiled and said, "Leon, Irene, do you two know how our Chinese netizens call Winslet now?"

Leon smiled and said, "I know, Ruth!"

Leon said "Ruth" in broken Chinese. He also knew that he and Li Chen were called "Little Leo" by Chinese netizens.

"Erin, 'Li' and I have a special connection. We both have the same name in China."

Irene's beautiful eyes flickered, she looked at Li Chen and smiled, "Really?"

In her eyes, all Chinese people look similar, unlike her Leon who is highly recognizable.

But she had heard of the Chinese man in front of her long before he came to China.

I'm afraid many of her colleagues know this special Chinese person.

Li Chen smiled and said, "Don't listen to Leon's nonsense. He and I are not the same kind of people."

"But Winslet now has another nickname, Leon."

"There's another one? What is it?"

"Fat and warm."

Leon laughed: "She is indeed much fatter now, but if she hears the nickname 'Fatty Wen', I'm afraid she will get upset."

"Leon, I hope you will never become Fat Jack!" Li Chen raised his glass and said with a smile.

The two people opposite happily touched Li Chen in the air.

Young model Irene also vowed: "Lee, Leon will never have this day, right, dear."

The two kissed each other face to face, showing their love to Li Chen.

Fortunately, Miss Liu called and said, "What are you doing? I have good news for you. I got another endorsement. Can you guess what it is?"

"I can't guess! When will you come back? Opposite me sits a pair of infatuated lovers showing off their affection."

Li Chen turned the phone around.

Leon waved coquettishly to Liu Yifei on the phone: “Hi, Crystal, when will you come back? I’ll wait for you to come back and turn on the phone.”

Liu Yifei was delighted, thinking that the two people opposite her might not understand the Chinese her husband just spoke.

The endorsement that Ms. Liu 'conveniently' accepted is not as common as she said. At least there is no one in China who has accepted it.

At the end of the month, the news that Liu Yifei became Bulgari's global spokesperson caused a sensation in the domestic entertainment industry.

Sina Entertainment News

"Liu Yifei becomes Bulgari's global spokesperson, setting a new luxury record!"

"Liu Yifei was appointed as Bulgari's global spokesperson, and this news shocked netizens around the world."

“This is the first time that Bulgari has announced a global spokesperson in China, and it was released simultaneously on four major platforms around the world.”

“Bulgari has always been very cautious and creative in choosing spokespeople. They not only look at fame, but also pay attention to the compatibility between the spokespeople and the jewellery.”

"Liu Yifei's ability to win this global spokesperson position is closely related to her international fame."

"Chiyou Pictures' Inception and The Hunger Games films made Liu Yifei known around the world, making her the most famous Chinese actress in the world."

Not to mention that the fans of Tianxian were overjoyed, some of the top domestic celebrities, such as International Zhang, International Fan, and International Qiao, were all feeling unhappy.

Hesong Media, the two sisters Bingxue also expressed their admiration for Liu Yifei's rapid rise, which was simply dazzling.

After giving birth, she becomes even more energetic.

"E'er, this is Yifei's third high-end luxury brand, right? She's also the global spokesperson. Just this one aspect alone is really beyond the reach of others." Li Qiaoqiao and his sister sighed.

"Sister, there's nothing to say. We just need to do our own thing and put ourselves in the right position. By competing with Yifei, we are actually competing with Director Li."

"As of now, there is probably no one in Asia who can compare to Director Li, so there is nothing to be discouraged about."

"What's more, you are one step ahead of Fan Zhang and the others, though not as good as the best. "

Li Qiaoqiao smiled and said, "That's true."

Zhang Ziyi has become a stranger to him because of Wendi Deng and "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan", but Li Qiaoqiao doesn't care.

In this circle, either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind.

If someone could help her defeat Liu Yifei, she would be willing to give anything.

Huang Xiaoming had no choice but to pay the visit.

As for whether it would succeed or not, he had no idea at all.

"Please sit down. I think your cover photo is pretty good. Huang Xiaoming, who has taken off the halo of an idol and a star and is willing to be an ordinary person, is very impressive. Why do you seem a little reserved today?"

Huang Xiaoming came to visit suddenly, and Li Chen couldn't guess his purpose.

He has already been offered a role in "Vientiane Island" and Reba has been confirmed as the second female lead. I wonder if he is still thinking about fighting for Dabaobei.

"Director Li, please stop teasing me. I may have to ask for leave from the crew for the premiere of Pi Fu."

"No problem." Li Chen agreed readily.

"Thank you, Director Li."

"It's just a small matter. Are you here for something today?"

Huang Xiaoming smiled, seeming to find it difficult to speak.

Li Chen became even more curious and said with a smile: "If you have something to say, just tell me. We are old friends. You didn't go to Yifei when you had something to say, but came to me. It shows that you are a smart person."

Huang Xiaoming thought to himself that it was a good thing that he didn't go to find Yifei.

Although Yifei is easy to talk to, Director Li will not tolerate any injustice.

Huang Xiaoming smiled and said, "Then I'll just say it straight, Director Li."

"Go ahead." Li Chen took a sip of tea and nodded.

"I wonder if Baby will be able to join One Heart Media?"

Li Chen glanced at Huang Xiaoming in surprise. He didn't expect it to be like this.

Huang Xiaoming smiled bitterly and said, "Director Li, to be honest, President Wang has always wanted to sign her and has told me twice, but I still want her to join Yi Xin Media."

"I'm not saying this to show off. My strength is not enough in front of you."

"I've looked for Siwei before, but Siwei seems to have some unspeakable secrets, what do you think?" Huang Xiaoming was nervous. If it weren't for Rongchen Pictures and Yixin Media, he would have nodded if Wang Zhonglei had talked to him once.

The most important thing is that Dabaobei doesn’t want to join Huayi. He has set his sights on Yixin Media and will not join anyone else.

In her own words, Huayi and Rongchen Pictures are sworn enemies. Joining Huayi would mean choosing an opponent that she would never be able to defeat. She is not stupid.

Huang Xiaoming was waiting for Li Chen's answer. Li Chen paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "We are acquaintances, so I will get straight to the point without beating around the bush."

"You say, Director Li." Huang Xiaoming said seriously.

Li Chen smiled and said, "If you want to join Yi Xin Media, Yang Siwei will definitely be happy to help you. I have no problem with that either."

"But if it's Yang Ying, forget it."

Huang Xiaoming sighed inwardly: This is indeed what Director Li meant. No wonder Siwei refused to say it out loud. But it makes sense. Baby was a young model, she has no acting skills and no voice, and she is not good at playing any musical instrument or singing. Director Li must look down on her.

"Brother Hua and I are partners and friends."

"He once told me that the actor he least wanted to work with was Yang Ying."

Li Chen added another sentence, and Huang Xiaoming suddenly smiled bitterly. The scene of the woman who couldn't cry and Liu Dehua's murderous look immediately flashed through his mind.

Huang Xiaoming left, and Li Chen explained to him clearly that although he would not want Dabaobei, Dabaobei joining Huayi should be the best choice besides Yixin Media.

Of course Huang Xiaoming understood what it meant.

Li Chen would not be fussy about which entertainment agency a small star joins.

"Director Li doesn't agree? Why?" Big Baby's face turned red, he was hit hard.

Huang Xiaoming was helpless: "I told you long ago that Director Li recruits people who can either sing or act. Which one do you think you are?"

"You need eye drops even when you cry. Which big director would like someone like you?"

Huang Xiaoming's words were not pleasant either. Li Chen's words that Liu Dehua was the actor he least wanted to work with really hit him hard.

The embarrassment today was not because the big darling got into his bed. With his emotional intelligence and IQ, he would not make such a mistake and bring trouble to others and himself.

Dabaobei also has self-esteem, and it seems that Huang Xiaoming's words hit the pain point in Dabaobei's heart.

At this moment, there was no need for eye drops at all. The big baby looked so pitiful with tears in his eyes.

Huang Xiaoming's heart softened immediately, and he quickly stepped forward and hugged his big baby like he was coaxing a child: "Okay, okay, actually, joining Huayi is not bad."

"Boss Wang told me that as long as you join Huayi, you will be the top lady of Huayi. Yao Chen, please stand aside!"

"How about it, are you a respectable man?"

Big Baby turned up his lips and said, "Sometimes you can't get me into Yixin!"

The word "do" made Huang Xiaoming angry. He bent down and grabbed Dabaobei's knee and said angrily: "If I can't do Yixin, I can do you!"

Yangtze Evening News

"Lu Chuan, due to his personality, speech and film-making philosophy, is destined to be a person whose topics come before his works. Yesterday, the director's new film "The Banquet" held a press conference in Beijing."

"The representative of the production company announced that the film will be officially released nationwide on July 7. At the press conference, Lu Chuan was very excited. He said, "I want to let the light of history shine into everyone's heart through this film."

There are too many people in the circle who are unhappy with Taro. The key point is that this person always looks like a saint, but he behaves like a villain behind the scenes.

Yang Mi agreed to play Madam Qi because she and Qin Lan were both members of the Teddy Sisters.

Unexpectedly, Lu Chuan wanted to hire new people, which made Yang Mi feel like a fool.

He directly took away Yu Ji, whom Liu Yifei didn't want, and slapped Lu Chuan in the face.

Yang Siwei was the first to feel unhappy when he saw Lu Chuan's annoying attitude.

I volunteered and called Li Chen: "Boss, Bridget Jones in Seattle won't be able to make it to the summer schedule, but Lu Yang's Kowloon Walled City should be fine. Should we also put Kowloon Walled City in the summer schedule?"

Regarding the matter of Zhao Zhen, Lu Chuan took the opportunity to step on Li Chen and spoke out for the injustice of "Nan Jing" that year.

Yang Siwei kept it in mind, and she believed that her boss certainly hadn't forgotten it either.

But who would have thought that Li Chen would actually say: "The summer schedule is too rushed, and putting it in the summer schedule is too deliberate."

"But boss, I just can't stand his face. Qin Lan is really unlucky! Why did she choose him?"

Li Chen smiled and said, "Thinking, sometimes you don't have to kill someone yourself."

"Boss, what do you mean?"

"Don't ask anymore. Tell Lu Yang not to rush to the post-production stage and to join the production of "Ip Man: The Final Chapter" step by step!"

"I understand, boss."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Siwei thought over and over again about what his boss meant by using a knife to kill someone, but he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

Ning Hao's "The Golden Robbery" has nothing to do with the summer season.

"BJ Falls in Love with Seattle" will not start filming until the end of the month, so I can't make it in time.

Ever since Qin Lan became Taro's girlfriend, she has become Taro's spokesperson.

I have automatically entered into the role of Chen Hong.

Apart from the filming of "The Banquet", she had to worry about everything else.

What worries me most is being targeted by Rongchen Pictures.

After all, Lu Chuan spoke out for "Nan Jing" on Weibo a while ago, implying that Li Chen was the mastermind behind the cyberbullying.

Men are willful and women have to clean up their mess.

Liu Yifei was surprised when she suddenly received Qin Lan's WeChat message.

She has always had a good impression of this woman. In order to take care of the injured Huang Xiaoming, she paid a penalty of 10 million yuan. Because of this, even though she broke up with Huang Xiaoming and got together with Lu Chuan, the two still maintained polite contact.

But that's just politeness.

Liu Yifei had just landed at the Beijing airport. She and Liu Xiaoli took a special passage and got directly into the black Mercedes-Benz MPV.

Li Chen was already waiting in the car.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mom." Li Chen stepped aside.

"It's not hard. It's Xixi who is hard." Liu Xiaoli said with a smile.

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at him and sat next to him.

Li Chen quickly laughed and said, "That's right, that's right, Xixi has worked hard and made great contributions, and her achievements are so great that they shock the master!"

Liu Yifei chuckled and sniffed Li Chen: "You just talk nonsense!"

"Smell what?"

"I want to smell whether you have had a life of debauchery with Leon or not!" Liu Yifei glanced at her husband.

Li Chen sat next to her and just smiled without saying anything to defend himself.

After a moment, Liu Yifei said carefully, "Which month do you plan to release Kowloon Walled City?"

Li Chen glanced at Miss Liu mischievously and said with a smile: "When did you start to care about my company's affairs?"

“Is this about fulfilling shareholder responsibilities?”

Liu Yifei held Li Chen's arm with both hands and said in a tender voice: "Can't I ask?"

Li Chen guessed what was going on and said with a smile, "Sure, of course. The release date for Kowloon has not been decided yet. I plan to release it during the Lunar New Year holiday."

Liu Yifei breathed a sigh of relief, at least it was separated from the summer vacation.

This is also good news for Qin Lan.

But at that time, neither Liu Yifei nor Qin Lan could have imagined that "The Banquet" would become "The King's Leftovers" or meet "Kowloon" in the Lunar New Year period.
