The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 376: Two welcome gifts and one big gift, are you considering joining the beautiful country?
Just as the filmmakers at the Golden Horse Awards guessed.

However, before they even left the awards ceremony, many live commentaries about the ceremony had already appeared on the Internet.

Not to mention that Tomato Channel has live broadcast.

What appears on the Internet now are some of the more exciting clips.

【Zhang Chen: Even if I give you a chance, you are useless.】

[At the 42nd Golden Horse Awards, Zhang Chen took the stage five times and won five awards including "Best Original Screenplay", "Best Actress", "Best Actor", "Best Director" and "Best Feature Film", becoming the biggest winner of this year's Golden Horse Awards.]

【Zhang Chen represented the mainland in this year's Golden Horse Awards and single-handedly defeated filmmakers from Hong Kong and Taiwan, defeating popular films such as "Kung Fu," "The Best Time," and "Dragon City Years," winning five awards, including Best Director. He also achieved the feat of having one film win both the Golden Horse Best Actor and Best Actress awards! 】

[A few days ago, the Golden Rooster Awards ignored Zhang Chen, thinking that Zhang Chen was still young and unqualified to win the award. Today's Golden Horse Awards "only favored" Zhang Chen, making Zhang Chen realize what it means to lick someone's boots, and lick without any bottom line.]

These are basically the mainstream media in mainland China.

No matter what Zhang Chen did, these media still did their best to promote the fact that Zhang Chen was able to represent the mainland and win such an honor at the Golden Horse Awards.

After all, Zhang Chen is the chairman of a group company and a big star who has done a lot of charity in the country. It is reasonable for them to praise him.

But the media in Hong Kong and Taiwan were not so polite.

A new director from the mainland who has snatched so many awards from their directors must endure the severity of their writing.

[The movie that was rejected by the Golden Rooster Awards actually won so many awards at the Golden Horse Awards. Zhang Chen overdid it this time, and let everyone see the attitude of a world-class superstar who will do anything to achieve his goal.]

[Zhang Chen just announced that he would break up with the Golden Rooster Awards, and then he won so many awards at the Golden Horse Awards. It is hard to believe how valuable Zhang Chen's awards are.]

[The Golden Horse Awards were afraid of Zhang Chen's "yin power" and were willing to kneel down and give away five awards, just to ask Zhang Chen to let the Golden Horse Awards go.]

[This award was won through threats. Today is destined to be a day of shame for the Chinese film industry! ]

[If no one controls Zhang Chen's overbearing behavior, Chinese films will soon be extinct! ]

[Chinese films are in danger! Just because there is an unreasonable young man named Zhang Chen in the film industry! ]

[Zhang Chen was like this when he was in the music industry. He used coercion and bribery to ruin many award ceremonies. Now he is ruining the film industry again. Is there really no one to deal with him? ]

The media on both sides also used Weibo as a battlefield and launched a fierce debate.

Film critics from all walks of life also participated.

What is unexpected is that mainland film critics did not help Zhang Chen, who is "one of their own", but instead joined the camps of Hong Kong and Taiwan to criticize Zhang Chen's behavior.

What he said implied that Zhang Chen's behavior was too ostentatious. If he continued like this, the Chinese film industry would be finished.

Netizens who can see the situation clearly are naturally unhappy about this situation.

"We allowed Kung Fu to win six Hong Kong Film Awards in Hong Kong, but we didn't allow Zhang Chen, a mainlander who is not from Taiwan, to win five Golden Horse Awards?"

The netizen started by pointing out the grand occasion in which "Kung Fu" swept the Academy Awards not long ago.

But this netizen also deliberately overlooked one thing.

That is, although "Kung Fu" won 6 awards, the only ones with higher gold content were "Best Film" and "Best Supporting Actor". Other more popular awards such as Best Director, Best Actor and Best Actress were taken away by other movies. The other four awards of "Kung Fu" were all film technology awards.

And what about Zhang Chen’s “Love”?
That is, he won all the major awards except the supporting actor award. The degree of shock of the two awards is not at the same level at all.

"The Palme d'Or, this is a movie that relies purely on the acting skills of the lead actors and actresses and the director's presentation style. It deserves every award it won. I don't know what some people are barking about!"

"It's because Zhang Chen is from mainland China and took all the awards away, so some people are upset."

"If Zhang Chen won an award he was not qualified for, I would have scolded him, but I think Zhang Chen deserved every one of the five awards he won this time."

"At the time, Zhang Chen asked anyone who was dissatisfied to go up on stage and he would give up the trophy himself. Unfortunately, Zhang Chen gave them the opportunity, but these people were too guilty to go up and take it. As a result, some media outlets that are not the real people want to hype this up. How shameless."

This is the comment that received the most likes from netizens in mainland China.

However, Hong Kong Island and Taiwan are two completely different extremes from the mainland.

The netizens of these two did not bring up Zhang Chen. After all, although Zhang Chen won the award, it was ultimately an award given by the Golden Horse Awards.

As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. They focused all their firepower on the Golden Horse Awards.

"It used to be said that the Golden Horse Awards were fair, but now it seems that it depends on who is fair. When I saw Zhang Chen, I really wanted to kneel in front of him and lick his legs. It's too shameless."

"Why did our Golden Horse Awards give so many awards to that mainlander? I think Director Hou's "The Best Time" is the best movie. "Kung Fu" is just something for a bunch of rough guys to watch. "Love" is just garbage that rubs ethics and morals on the ground. Ugh!"

"All the awards were won by mainland films. I said that Chen Yaoqi, a director from the mainland, was untrustworthy. Sure enough, he still favors mainlanders!"

These remarks are relatively restrained.

Some netizens said even more extreme things.

Zhang Chen had already told William and Du Zhining how to deal with this kind of thing.

Anyone who dares to say something like "working alone" will be permanently banned, and the ban will be directly linked to their ID card.

"Brother, can I say a few words on Weibo?"

As soon as the Golden Horse Awards ended, Zhang Chen did not leave Taiwan and go directly to Yanjing. Instead, he found a hotel and planned to stay there.

Liu Xiaoli and the two senior colleagues were not used to living in an unfamiliar environment and had already boarded Zhang Chen's plane to rush home. Now only Zhang Chen, Liu Yifei and Zhang Chen's personal team were left in Taiwan.

"It's already messy enough, and you want to make it more chaotic?" Zhang Chen complained while taking off his clothes.

"Go take a shower first!" Liu Yifei watched Zhang Chen take off his clothes and walk towards the bedroom. She opened her arms and quickly stopped Zhang Chen with a firm expression.

"I'm going to change my clothes. I have an appointment."

"Date?" Liu Yifei's expression tensed.

"What are you thinking about!" Zhang Chen flicked the little girl's forehead in annoyance, "Have you forgotten about the CEO of Disney?"

Before Liu Yifei could continue asking, Zhang Chen directly blocked her mouth.

"Okay, I know you want to ask me if I like men." Zhang Chen smiled and wiped his mouth, "I'll tell you directly with my actions."

Liu Yifei blushed, her eyes became blurry, and she muttered quietly: "How could I ask such a childish question?"

Zhang Chen smiled but said nothing.

Having known her for such a long time, he knew a little about the girl's psychology. After all, he was the one who dared to say in public, "You can't like my mother!"

Thinking back over the past two years, I realize that the girl wasn’t really that suspicious, but she just wanted to get his attention, that’s all.

However, it was a rare moment of alone time outside, and there was also the "bet" made at the Golden Horse Awards, so Zhang Chen did not really change his clothes and leave, but stayed in the room with Liu Yifei for a while.

The direct consequence of this is.
He changed into a second new set of clothes before leaving the room.

Ten minutes later, in a separate meeting room of the hotel.

"Leon, you've kept me waiting for a long time." Robert Iger said with a teasing tone, "It seems that you love your girlfriend very much."

"Mr. Yige, let's get down to business." Zhang Chen coughed, "You also said that my girlfriend is still waiting for me in the room."

“Hahaha, it seems that Leon’s girlfriend lived in our beautiful country for a period of time before?”

"Well, when I was young, I studied abroad in the United States for study."

"It would be great if she could join our country's nationality at that time." Yige said with emotion, "In this way, Leon might come to our beautiful country more often, and would not suffer the unfair treatment in your China."

"Hehe." Zhang Chen chuckled, then turned his face straight and said nothing.

The image of a person who has been treated unfairly is portrayed vividly.

What Yiger said was all within his expectations, but he didn't know whether the following plot would go as he expected.

"I know that Leon might be a little skeptical about the gift I gave him in Cannes." Iger laughed when he said this. "Hahaha, I wonder if Leon will still be skeptical about the gift from the Golden Horse Awards this time?"

"It's hard to say." Zhang Chen's lips curled up slightly, "Besides, I don't really care how many awards my movie can win. After all, the goal was achieved a long time ago."

"I heard about it too. I have to say that Lyon has some good tactics!" Iger gave Zhang Chen a thumbs up.

"This is the gentleman's wish. Let's help if we can." Zhang Chen said in a low voice, as if he felt sorry for the two poor lovers.

“Yeah, poor two kids.” Yige also looked sorry, and then said in an admiring tone, “As expected, Leon is a kind-hearted person.”

Zhang Chen just smiled and said nothing.

Kindness?

If you think so, then so be it.

He didn't know whether Robert Iger's praise was sincere or false, but that didn't stop the topic between the two from continuing around this point.

Anyway, he said and did this just to prevent Yig from using favors to blackmail him.

In order to avoid being put in a passive position, Zhang Chen needs to stand in a position that is advantageous to him.

"Mr. Iger flew all the way from the United States. Could it be that he is here to speak for those two poor people, just like me?"

"Uh..." Iger's smile froze. In fact, he didn't know much about it, but he quickly reacted and smiled again. "I wonder if Leon still remembers the topic we talked about in Cannes, Gaul?"

"Pixar?"

"Yes!" Iger secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "I wonder what Leon thinks about this?"

"This..." Zhang Chen was embarrassed. "A few days ago, an elderly man I respect wanted me to support more domestic animated films, so..."

"Is it the old man I met at the Golden Rooster Awards?"

"Yes, how did you know?" Zhang Chen asked curiously.

“Hey!” Iger waved his hand, slightly displeased, “I heard that Leon was bullied over there, so I went to find out more.”

Zhang Chen nodded in understanding and motioned for Yige to continue.

"I feel sorry for Lyon when I see a talent who has risen strongly in our country and cannot be stopped by anyone being treated like this in his own country."

Yige glanced at Zhang Chen, and seeing that he still didn't speak, he continued, "Think about how high-spirited Leon was in our country. He was so popular in the Grammys and Billboard charts that singers all over the world had no chance of resisting him."

Iger became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he was the one who was full of vigor and vitality: "We noticed you at that time."

At this point, Yige stared into Zhang Chen's eyes and said seriously: "Leon, you belong to the world. You can't be imprisoned in a small circle because of your nationality. What makes me even more sad is that you are still being bullied. How can we, the fans around the world who have witnessed your growth, feel good about this?"

Yige saw that Zhang Chen's expression had also changed.

From the expressionless face at the beginning, he pursed his lips, as if he was enduring something.

"Mr. Iger, just say what you want to say." Zhang Chen said with a slightly irritated tone.

However, Zhang Chen's emotion made Yige, who was watching Zhang Chen the whole time, happy: "Then I'll just say it straight?"

Zhang Chen frowned and nodded.

"Leon, are you interested in joining our beautiful country?"

Zhang Chen slapped the table between them. After a loud bang, Zhang Chen's face was gloomy: "Mr. Yige, are you insulting me?"

“No, no, no!” Iger quickly shook his head to deny it. Perhaps he thought it was not enough, and both of his hands were shaking wildly. “I just can’t bear to see the former genius Leon, now a world superstar, being treated like this over there.”

"Hmph!" Zhang Chen snorted coldly without refutation, as if he was also angry about this matter.

"I know this is difficult." Iger leaned forward and placed his hands on the table with his fingers interlaced. "But Leon, you really should think about it seriously."

"Why?" Zhang Chen stared at Robert Eagle.

He knew that this matter was going to bear fruit.

"We are more sincere." Robert Iger spread his hands and curled his lips and said, "I remember that Lyon spent a lot of money in your country for free, but what did you get?"

Robert Iger asked himself and answered: "Endless demands? Unfair treatment? Doubts about your talent?"

Zhang Chen pursed his lips and didn't answer, as if his secrets had been touched upon.

"Lyon, Cannes and the Golden Horse Awards are just the gifts I brought. I have prepared another big gift for you. After you listen to me, please think carefully about what I said. How about that?"

Zhang Chen controlled his facial expression and asked calmly, "Oh? What is it?"

Yige didn't say anything, but took out a document from his briefcase: "This is my sincerity."

　What is it? What is it?
