Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 739 I know Zhou Xingchi very well

The heads of the three major video websites all attended the celebration party for "Vientiane Island".

Yu Dong and Xu Laoguai from Bernardo also came.

Although Xu looks crazy, he is actually a smart man.

Seeing that Hua Yi was being suppressed in the fight with Rong Chen, he immediately turned around and chose Bernard.

"Director Xu, Director Han is my old boss. I have always maintained a good relationship with Director Li. No one will interfere with Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy. Moreover, you have hired Lin Gengxin, so Director Li will not interfere."

Yu Dong and Xu Laoguai walked onto the red carpet of the Diaoyutai State Hotel, waving to the media and chatting and laughing.

If Li Chen heard Yu Dong use the word "interfering" to describe himself, he would make the word "interfering" live up to its name.

Tang Yan, Li Yifeng and Yang Yang walked onto the red carpet with Gong Yu from iQiyi.

Handsome men and beautiful women are naturally the most popular among fans.

The stills of "Aning" released by iQiyi have indeed completely concealed the disadvantage of Tang Yan's overly thin figure.

Compared to Shirley Yang played by Jiang Shuying in the TV version of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" produced by Rongchen Pictures, the two are equally good.

The media has made a fuss about this incident many times, which makes Tang Yan upset.

When she officially announced her relationship with Luo Jin, she announced that she would star in "Grave Robbers' Chronicles". At that time, the company did not say that they would film the script of "Ghost Blows Out the Light". Besides, even if they did, she would not be able to play the role.

This kind of role is okay for newcomers, but she and Yang Mi are both veterans of the company, and they can only play the role that Zhang Yuqi played in the movie version.

Although the boss keeps saying that TV actors are no less important than movie actors, deep down he obviously cares more about movies.

Otherwise, why didn't she let Yifei star in "Eternal Love"? It's because the film adaptation rights of "Eternal Love" are not in the company's hands.

Several people entered the banquet hall lobby, which was already full of stars and bigwigs.

Mr. Sun from Penguin, Mr. Gu from Youku, Mr. Wang from Guangxian, and Mr. Yu from Berna.

The '40 billion' ice sculpture in the front is extremely eye-catching.

Li Yifeng clicked his tongue and looked around, feeling shivering.

I don’t know if the box office of “Island of Vientiane” can be matched by that of all the movies I’ve made in my lifetime combined.

Yang Yang on the side had shining eyes. If he was still lucky, he would never have a chance in such occasions.

Yangyang secretly praised in his heart: Yang Mi is indeed a role model for our generation.

Gong Yu smiled and said, "Ms. Tang, let's go say hello to Mr. Li."

The reason why Tang Yan was chosen was actually because she was once Rong Chen’s artist.

Gong Yu didn't want to be too close to Rong Chen, nor did she want to be too far away from him.

He believed that both Sun Zhonghuai and he wanted to be in charge of their own affairs and not rely on Rongchen.

Therefore, self-produced dramas are the general trend. They have online broadcasting platforms, and no one can compare with Rongchen in terms of copyright background.

But it does not prevent them from exploring new projects. If any of them becomes a hit, they will be able to get rid of Rong Chen’s shadow over time.

Gong Yu didn't even mention Li Yifeng and Yangyang, he only talked about us, obviously he valued Tang Yan more.

Tang Yan smiled and said, "Let's go, otherwise I'm afraid we won't be able to get to the boss in a while."

Li Yifeng followed Tang Yan and said with a smile: "Sister, you are already a boss, but you still call me Boss Li."

Tang Yan rolled her eyes at him and said with a smile: "Even if I am the queen, he is still my boss!"

When they came closer, Yang Yang recognized who was standing next to General Manager Li and Director Han.

I was just looking at the back just now. After all, besides Stephen Chow, director Chen Kexin and others have the same hair color.

When he turned around, Yangyang and Li Yifeng saw clearly that it was Zhou Xingchi.

"Director Han, President Li, and Director Zhou, congratulations on the huge success of 'Vientiane Island', and I also wish in advance that 'The Mermaid' will also be a big hit." Gong Yu said with a smile and bowed.

Zhou Xingchi didn't talk much in crowded places, just smiled and nodded.

If it wasn't for the celebration party of "Vientiane Island" today, he would definitely not have come.

Han Sanping nodded secretly, and Li Chen smiled and said, "Boss Gong has brought my people to our door."

Tang Yan quickly stood beside Li Chen and said, "Then I'll switch sides, boss."

Gong Yu laughed and said, "Boss Li is so humorous. We are not enemies, so why would we fight?"

Meng Ziyi, who was standing not far away, said to Liu Yifei beside her: "Sister, the person next to Sister Tangtang is the CEO of iQiyi, right?"

Meng Ziyi was not rude today and dressed like a sunflower.

Liu Yifei nodded and smiled, "You have sharp eyes. You didn't see the two handsome guys next to you, but you saw Mr. Gong."

Meng Ziyi's face turned red, and she thought to herself, that's right, I didn't see the handsome guy, why did I only see the capital side.

"Sister, is the boss the only one in your eyes? When you say two handsome guys, it sounds very nonchalant to me." Meng Ziyi has become a die-hard fan of the boss lady since Liu Yifei's birthday dinner that day.

Liu Yifei chuckled: "You have a sharp tongue. If your boss hears what you said, no one will be able to protect you."

"Why?" Meng Ziyi spoke faster than his brain.

"You want to go!" Liu Yifei didn't explain to her.

After a long while, Meng Ziyi finally reacted and quickly covered her mouth and said, "Pfft, ffff, ffff, that's not what I meant! The boss is also very handsome!"

Liu Yifei said with a smile: "Don't explain, he didn't hear it anyway."

At the premiere, Meng Ziyi looked at these big guys who were once out of her reach, and saw that they all put away their arrogance in front of the boss.

Even director Xu Ke turned himself into a psychopath in "Best Partner".

Meng Ziyi remembered a sentence that was often said in Rongchen’s art group: If you haven’t joined Rongchen, you don’t know how many first-tier stars there are; if you haven’t met Mr. Li, you don’t know how useless capital is.

Two days after the celebration banquet of "Vientiane Island", the Hollywood hacker nude photo incident has not yet subsided, and the domestic entertainment industry has ushered in another storm.

This time, even Li Chen took the initiative to join the team.

I thought I had used some tricks and given the other party a slight warning, which would make him give up.

Unexpectedly, a post from a female fan of Zhou Xingchi titled "Why have so many people been bashing Zhou Xingchi over the years" completely broke down their defenses.

Sina Entertainment News

"According to Taiwanese media reports, Zhou Xingchi was crowned the King of Comedy and was loved by many fans, but in real life, his former partners and ex-lovers turned against him and he was deserted by everyone."

"Recently, a post titled 'Why are so many people bashing Zhou Xingchi' appeared online. The post mentioned a Hong Kong film and television tycoon who had worked with Zhou Xingchi for many years and angrily criticized Zhou Xingchi."

"I was very angry after reading the article and criticized Zhou Xingchi in an interview with Hong Kong's East Weekly."

As soon as the incident happened, Li Chen called Zhou Xingchi and asked him to come to his villa.

Zhou Xingchi was recently in Beijing for casting and was auditioning actresses in a hotel when he received a call from Li Chen.

The dozen or so beautiful girls in bikinis formed a sharp contrast with Zhou Xingchi's outfit of a baseball cap, sweatshirt and trousers.

Zhou Xingchi and his assistant Chen Zhenyu hurried to Li Chen's villa.

"Master Xing, what do you think Mr. Li wants from us?"

"I don't know. You'll know when you get there." Zhou Xingchi shook his head.

The two were rushing to Li Chen's villa, and Liu Yifei was curious about why her husband called them over.

"I have to at least find out whether this post was posted by Zhou Xingchi's people. Even if I want to help him, I can't let myself be used as a gun by others."

-

"Mr. Li, I swear, it's definitely not Master Xing. How dare we mess with their family!" Zhou Xingchi's assistant Chen Zhenyu said, raising three fingers on his right hand.

Li Chen looked at Zhou Xingchi, who had a calm expression on his face: "Boss Li, why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm playing tricks on you?"

Liu Yifei quickly explained, "Director Zhou, don't misunderstand me. When you came, my husband had already decided to help you. He just wanted to make things clear." Li Chen nodded and said, "I believe you, Director Zhou. Wait a moment. There should be a result soon."

Li Chen said it was very fast, and it was indeed very fast.

Yang Siwei also rushed over. She wanted to investigate someone. If that person was not trying to hide, she could find out the truth in just a few minutes.

As soon as Yang Siwei entered the living room, he saw Zhou Xingchi was there and greeted him first.

Then she quickly reported it to her boss.

"I checked it out, boss. The post was posted on Tianya Forum. The person who posted it is called: Lovely Noodle Star. She is a female fan of Director Zhou's fan club. She started posting on Tianya Forum in April this year."

Yang Siwei paused and then smiled, "This girl has looked up a lot of information. If the matter hadn't gotten out of hand, she would have continued to update it."

Zhou Xingchi's assistant was very annoyed and complained: "Does she know how much trouble she has caused? She did this without considering the consequences!"

Li Chen still ignored him, but Zhou Xingchi actually saw Li Chen's displeasure and glanced at his assistant: "Don't talk, listen to Director Li."

Li Chen nodded and said, "Since it has nothing to do with you, you don't need to care about it. She thinks she is a court, why did she issue a ten-day ultimatum?"

"Thank you, Director Li." Zhou Xingchi said awkwardly.

"What are you thanking me for? I haven't done anything yet!" Li Chen said with a smile.

Liu Yifei, Yang Siwei and Zhou Xingchi also laughed.

In fact, in Li Chen's opinion, this matter was nothing more than the post posted by this girl hitting that person's sore spot.

His family's background is like the lice on a bald man's head, it is clear at a glance.

After that, the team formation just began.

With Li Chen standing behind him, the youngest star girl Yang Mi, an artist from Rong Chen's group, was the first to take the lead and strongly supported Zhou Xingchi on Weibo: "I said that Master Xing is an eternal idol!"

Xu Jiao also posted a statement of gratitude on Weibo: "Director Zhou is my mentor and has been very kind to me. Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, the occasional phone calls still make me feel his care for me."

"My current contract with Star Shine is about to expire, but the intention to renew the contract has been reached. I think this is the best support for him."

Liu Jialing also wanted to say a few words to his face, why did you accept interviews from any other media, and why did you have to criticize Zhou Xingchi in East Weekly?

Liu Jialing could still play dumb: "He is a very talented artist. He was always very polite to me, bowing 90 degrees and calling me Sister Jialing."

Zheng Peipei, who plays Madam Hua, did not remain silent: "I can't be ungrateful. Without Xingzai, how would hundreds of millions of people in the mainland know me, 'Madam Hua'?"

Zhang Yuqi is a must-see for the Star Girls: "He is very nice and takes good care of me. He is a serious director and a professional actor."

"He is very good at taking care of people and actors, and no matter what the outside world says, I will not pay attention and will always support Stephen Chow." His ex-girlfriend Mo Wenwei also stood up.

Liu Dehua couldn't escape either, saying that Liu Dehua had personally said that Zhou Xingchi was not his friend.

It just so happened that during these two days, Liu Dehua attended the press conference for the movie "Striving for Success" and could not avoid it: "First of all, I did not personally say that he is not my friend. I just personally said that he is, was, and will always be my friend and my good boss."

"Maybe I misunderstood. I can only say that I am his fan now, in the past, and in the future."

Li Chen and Liu Yifei also saw Liu Dehua's reply. Li Chen smiled and said to Liu Yifei: "Look at Brother Hua's emotional intelligence. No wonder he has been popular for decades."

"Then Mr. Li, how are you going to reply? You are the producer of "The Mermaid". You can't escape the fate of the film." Liu Yifei supported her chin and stared at her husband with a smile.

Li Chen scratched her nose and said with a smile: "If you want to see your husband make a fool of himself, that's harder than cheating on you!"

"What do you mean? If you make a fool of yourself someday, does that mean you've cheated on me?"

Li Chen gave Miss Liu a thumbs up, saying her logic was perfect.

"I was wrong. I never said that! If you want to see your husband make a fool of himself, wait until your next life!"

Liu Yifei chuckled: "Not in the next life! Just wait and be a slave!"

Li Chen laughed loudly: "Women are indeed the most vicious!"

Some people support Zhou Xingchi,

The three most popular movie stars in Hong Kong spoke out at the same time.

Phoenix News
"As soon as the news of the attack on Zhou Xingchi came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the Hong Kong media. Although Zhou Xingchi did not respond, many celebrities expressed their opinions and stated their positions."

"Zha Zha Hui: I'm not familiar with Zhou Xingchi!"

"Jiang Tianyang: I'm not familiar with Mr. Zhou, but he's definitely a good person."

"Liu Qingyun: I don't know him well, but he is a good boss and is very polite to everyone."

And he kept demanding it as if he had taken the wrong medicine.

Southern Weekly News

"Chen blasted Zhou Xingchi for his bad character, and then added that Zhou Xingchi had a very bad character and would never work with him. Today, Song's team suggested to the General Administration through Weibo that Zhou Xingchi be banned, and received strong support, but was also scolded by fans."

"Song Zude called himself a "CPPCC member" on Weibo and called for a ban on Zhou Xingchi!"

"Zhou's films promote falsehood, ugliness and evil, are full of vulgarity, run counter to my country's core socialist values ​​and seriously poison young people."

The ten-day deadline for the Hong Kong Island villa is about to expire, but Zhou Xingchi has not made any move.

Li Chen didn't say a word, and couldn't even be found.

It was like sitting on pins and needles.

Originally, neither of them had any intention of overthrowing Zhou, but after this post came out, they were in a difficult situation.

If you keep silent about this kind of thing, you are tacitly admitting that you are involved in organized crime.

This is the most intolerable thing.

"Hubby, do you think Li Chen also thinks what we said makes sense? So many people who immigrated to Canada back then have filmed movies with us, but only Zhou Xingchi was blocked!"

No one can guess what Li Chen is up to.

But based on his understanding of Li Chen, this person either doesn't do it, or does it to the extreme.

-

At the Beijing Star Girl audition, more than a hundred media outlets, including twenty from Hong Kong, noticed that there was an extra person next to Zhou Xingchi.

Compared to Zhou Xingchi's long gray hair, Li Chen's short buzz cut is more eye-catching.

The media swarmed over and surrounded Li Chen and Zhou Xingchi as if they had seen a consecrated treasure.

"Mr. Li? What do you think of the attack on director Zhou Xingchi?"

"Director Li, are you here today to support Zhou Xingchi?"

The media were talking at once, and Zhou Xingchi looked very unnatural. He had not expected this person to stand next to him.

In fact, there is no need to say anything about this action, the attitude is already very clear.

There was a full kaleidoscope placed in front of Li Chen. The reporters seemed to be starving and wanted to eat Li Chen.

"I know Zhou Xingchi very well!"

Li Chen's first sentence made many mainland reporters at the scene laugh. This was obviously a slap in the face of those movie stars who had worked with Stephen Chow.

Compared to the support from the Star Girls, many movie stars who have worked with Zhou Xingchi collectively praised him, but tacitly, as if they had agreed beforehand, said that they were not familiar with Zhou Xingchi.

It has become a joke that Zhou Xingchi and I are not familiar with each other.

Zhou Xingchi looked increasingly embarrassed.

Just now in the backstage, Li Chen joked with him about this.

"Director Zhou, don't worry. Although I have never made a movie with you and I am not from Hong Kong, I know you very well. Your movies accompanied me throughout my childhood and adolescence. I have only bought a ticket to watch your movie once in all these years. Today, I will make up for the ticket I owe you."

Zhou Xingchi was stunned for a long while before he stammered out a thank you.

What he didn't know was that Li Chen had gone too far today.
