The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 367: Preparation for the big event, my nickname is "No shortage of money"

When it comes to the Golden Rooster Awards, "Love" and "Kekexili" take the lead, ranking first and second in the number of nominations.

At the Golden Horse Awards, "Black Society", "Kung Fu", "Love", "The Best Time", "Seven Swords", and "Initial D" all received a large number of nominations.

"Black and White" received 11 nominations including "Best Feature Film".

"Kung Fu" also received 10 nominations including "Best Feature Film".

"Love" is also a strong contender for "Best Feature Film", having received nine nominations, and only slightly lacking in technical awards such as action design. After all, the first two films both have fighting plots, while "Love" is a purely literary story film.

The other three films received 8, 7 and 6 nominations respectively.

In total, these six films received more than 6 nominations.

Hong Kong films include "Black Society", "Kung Fu" and "Seven Swords", with a total of 28 nominations.

Taiwanese films include "The Best Time" and "Initial D", with a total of 15 nominations.

Among the mainland films, only "Love" received 9 nominations, while the others only received some minor nominations for some films that no one has ever heard of.

On Weibo, mainland netizens have begun to cheer Zhang Chen on, fearing that Zhang Chen will not be able to withstand the pressure from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

"Fortunately, there is Love, otherwise mainland films would have lost miserably at this year's Golden Horse Awards."

"Lao Mouzi, Kaizi Ge, and Xiao Gangpao, either they didn't make a movie this year, or their new movies haven't been released yet. Only Zhang Chen's number is on time, otherwise the mainland's Golden Horse Awards this year would really be in jeopardy."

"Where is 'Kekexili'?! Didn't the Golden Rooster Awards give it so many nominations? Why didn't it get any nominations at the Golden Horse Awards?"

"Are you stupid? Last year, 'Kekexili' was registered for the Golden Horse Awards, but due to the controversy on the Internet and the pressure from Zhang Chen, Lu Chuan directly admitted to plagiarism. The last Golden Horse Awards directly disqualified it from winning, so it was only the Golden Rooster Awards."

"Only the Golden Rooster Awards dare to take the brunt of the world's disapproval, right? I've long said that the Golden Rooster Awards is a group of people's self-entertainment. Look at what kind of movies are nominated for the Golden Rooster Awards? Forget about those movies. I won't talk about them. If I do, I'm afraid I'll be criticized."

"What is there to be afraid of? It's just some movies with some elements. No matter how they are made, they will win awards. Sometimes I really want to say that some people are really tarnishing the reputation!"

"Hey, hey, hey, hold back, you haters. That's some people's private land. They're all counting on a certain award to survive. Don't strip them of their underwear."

In addition to the discussions among netizens, celebrities from all walks of life rushed to Zhang Chen’s Weibo to show their courtesy.

@舒唱: Sofa! Boss, you should post on Weibo more often. Why is this Weibo asking Xiao Zhou?

@周杰轮: Brother Chen, why don’t you post another Weibo? It’s not a pleasant experience to be beaten up for the second time! Also, I look forward to attending the Golden Horse Awards with Brother Chen next month!

There is no way, Zhang Chen’s last Weibo post was [@周杰轮: I heard that you are going to take over my job? ]

Now netizens and celebrities are also leaving comments under this Weibo post.

This caused Jay Chou, the person involved, to suffer a second critical hit.

@Hou Pei-Chen: @周杰伦, Jay~I am the host of the Golden Horse Awards, and you and Brother Chen will be interviewed by me at that time.

At this moment, the relationship between Patty Hou and Jay Chou has been exposed for some time, and the interactions between the two have been frequent.

When "Initial D" was first released, Jay Chou booked a theater and invited friends and family to watch the movie. In addition to Jay Chou's mother and grandmother, Patty Hou also came to the scene to support her boyfriend Jay Chou.

Moreover, Patty Hou often CUEs her boyfriend in the programs she hosts, and she is just short of sticking the label of "Jay Chou's" girlfriend on her face.

It can be said that Jay Chou and Patty Hou were in a sweet and passionate period of love at that time, and even the comments under Zhang Chen’s Weibo were about showing their affection.

Someone has something to say about this show of affection.

"Look at others, and then look at yourself!" Liu Yifei was so angry that she started complaining to Zhang Chen.

Women always like things that are more complicated than these.

Regardless of age or personality.

Just because she doesn't say it doesn't mean she doesn't want to.

Obviously, Liu Yifei couldn't hide anything in front of Zhang Chen, and she didn't think there was any need to hide anything.

In front of others, she will maintain the image of a lady and keep proper manners.

But when facing Zhang Chen, it becomes real and
“Then shall I post an official announcement on Weibo right now?” Zhang Chen placed both hands on the keyboard and began typing.

"No, no, no!" Liu Yifei hurriedly moved Zhang Chen's hand away from the keyboard.

She looked at the screen and saw a few lines of text appearing on it: "Hello everyone, I am Liu Yifei"

"What are you thinking about next?" Liu Yifei looked at the text and couldn't help but wonder how Zhang Chen would edit it later.

Zhang Chen didn't say anything and continued typing:

".Boy friend."

"Ahhhhhh - go away!" Liu Yifei pushed Zhang Chen away with a red face, and began to press the delete key frantically, not noticing that this text was only "being edited" and had not been officially released, so netizens could not see it.

Perhaps, just the sight of these words in her eyes made her feel inexplicably shy.

Zhang Chen looked at the little girl blushing and deleting the text, and he was a little amused: "It was you who asked me to make it public, and now it's you who doesn't allow me to post on Weibo."

"Is it not okay for me to just say it?" Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at Zhang Chen. Although her face was still red, the upturned corners of her mouth could not hide her mood at the moment.

"Okay, but I may not have time to accompany you during this period."

"What are you going to do?"

"Uh, I have some business to do."

"Then" Liu Yifei was a little reluctant, but still pursed her lips and replied, "Come back early."

"Yeah." Zhang Chen responded with a smile.

No one in this world can understand what he is going to do, or no one will understand it in the next few years.

In November, there were several major events in the Internet circle. The first was that Internet companies around the world began to develop into question-and-answer websites.

Google, Baidu, Sina and Yahoo all have corresponding businesses.

In addition, after Shanda made its own games "Fantasy Kingdom", "Legend of Mir 2" and "World of Legend" permanently free, the industry also believes that free services for netizens will be the general trend in the future. Just like what South Korea has done, the transformation to value-added services will undoubtedly become one of the main themes of the future Chinese netizen market.

Only a few games such as NetEase's "Fantasy Westward Journey" are still offering point card payment services, and there has been no free announcement to the public.

In the entertainment industry, Jay Chou released several songs from his new album last month, and this time on November 11st, he finally put the album "Chopin in November" on public sale.

It is worth mentioning that the physical album sales were put on the new physical album sales page of Morning Light Music. Morning Light Music also said that it would cooperate with several major domestic express delivery companies to ensure that the albums received by fans are genuine. In addition, all physical album production is handled by the production agency under Morning Light Music.

This further guarantees the interests of singers while also squeezing the living space of pirates.

In the past, Zhang Chen was reluctant to touch the pirated cake, but now that the scale has become so large and international giants have entered the market, it is time to show the profits of the domestic market, and Chenguang Group also has to work hard in this regard.

Moreover, for this purpose, Chenguang Technology's "Tenpay" and strategic cooperation with major express delivery companies, all aspects of album production have been completed in the past few years.

The most important thing is that Morning Light Music does not become the biggest pirate, and has broken some unspoken rules that singers used to be afraid to speak out about.

Now, the Morning Glory Group can responsibly tell every singer who cooperates with Morning Glory Music that the albums produced by Morning Glory Music, whether online or offline, can guarantee the income of every singer.

As for singers who collaborate with other record companies?

Sorry, Morning Glory Music has no obligation to help them protect their own rights.

It is for this reason that Jay Chou's album can be regarded as the first to catch the "piracy-free" express train in China in theory.

In the first week of the album's release, physical album sales reached a terrifying 110 million copies.

As usual, there would be a large number of pirated albums appearing on the market at this time, but Jay Chou had already informed his fans when releasing the album that his physical album would only be sold in the online store of Morning Light Music.

Pirated albums have indeed appeared, and every small store is waiting to make a fortune from Jay Chou, the singer who has become very popular in recent years.

Unfortunately, the reality made them extremely disappointed.

The "albums" they made were indeed purchased by some people, and in quite a few cases.

However, these are mostly students.

But according to past experience, even students can contribute a lot of sales data to them.

However, the sales data this time is only about 20% of the previous level.

And on the album sales page of Morning Light Music, "Chopin in November" sold nearly 100 million copies in the second week!

This also made Jay Chou excited and he posted a message on Weibo that puzzled his fans.

@周杰伦: Praise my brother Chen!
"What's wrong with Jay Chou? Could it be that there are songs written by Zhang Chen in this album?"

"What a joke! If Jay Chou's album contained a song written by Zhang Chen, the sales of this album would increase several times!"

"Then why did Mr. Zhou suddenly thank Zhang Chen out of nowhere?"

"I don't understand, but I suddenly feel a bit uncomfortable with them. What should I do?"

"Get lost, rotten girl!"

In response to netizens' questions, neither Jay Chou nor Zhang Chen responded, nor was there any need to respond.

Moreover, Zhang Chen is now in Shu, being received by the government office here.

"I really didn't expect that Zhang Chen, the youngest, most talented and caring superstar in our country, would come to our province." Director S enthusiastically took Zhang Chen's hand and said all kinds of mushy words.

Zhang Chen listened to the other party's compliments. Although they were true, it was embarrassing to hear.

However, his strong mental strength still allowed him to keep smiling: "In the past few years, other people in our foundation have been busy, and I haven't found the time to go around and see them. I feel a little incompetent."

"Hey! What kind of words are you talking about?" Director S was dissatisfied, but with a smile on his face, "Everyone knows that you are busy, but everyone will remember your contribution to our country!"

Zhang Chen had no choice. He was notified to come here to invest and build the project, so he could understand the other party's enthusiasm.

As the patriarch here, when a big sponsor like Zhang Chen says he wants to invest, he has to treat him well no matter what.

Seeing that he was about to be dragged to a dinner with a group of uncles and aunts who were about the same age as his parents, Zhang Chen quickly refused: "I have other plans later, let's finalize the matter quickly, and we will have a chance to get together in the future!"

"Oh! Look at my brain!" Director S slapped his forehead and looked at Zhang Chen with a smile, "Yeah, I almost forgot that you, Zhang Chen, just got nominated for the Golden Rooster Award and the Golden Horse Award. You have to go to Sanya in a few days, right?"

"Yes, so time is a bit tight." Zhang Chen nodded.

"Then let's get straight to the point."

"Okay!" Zhang Chen wished so.

He has been doing business in Yanjing for many years and has extensive connections.

There is investment in Zhejiang Province, and there have been moves in the Shanghai Stock Exchange recently, but there is a reason why there has been no movement in the inland areas. So he is not very familiar with some people here, so it would be better to simply skip the tedious greetings.

"I have had a question since the day I got the news." The other party looked puzzled. "Speaking of investment, Zhang Chen, you should be from Jiangcheng. Why don't you go to your hometown to build it, but come to our Shu land instead?"

"Of course." The other party said before Zhang Chen could answer, "We are definitely 100% welcome for you to invest here. I just want to know why, so that some people won't gossip."

Zhang Chen nodded, understanding the other party's concerns.

After thinking for a moment, he took out a statement he had prepared long ago: "You should know what happened on the other side of the Himalayas last month, right?"

"You mean the northern region over there?"

"Yes, it's too serious." Zhang Chen said with sympathy, "A total of 8.6 people."

"so."

"Nothing, I just thought." Zhang Chen paused and continued, "I hope that the 'Chenxi Fund' can anticipate the worst-case scenario at the beginning of its work. This is also the purpose of my coming here."

"So that's how it is." The other party laughed and patted Zhang Chen on the shoulder. He felt relieved. "This is a good thing. Don't worry. I will personally supervise the schools and public facilities you donated and ensure that they are built to the highest standards. That's it."

Zhang Chen looked at the other person's embarrassed expression and smiled: "Have you forgotten my nickname?"

"Do you have a nickname?"

"Uh," Zhang Chen smiled awkwardly. This matter was suppressed by his Internet public relations team, and the outside world had never heard of it.

But it doesn't matter, it's okay to treat it as a joke at this time.

"My nickname, Zhang Chen, is - I'm not short of money!"
