Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 204 Da Meiyuan is completely deified [Subscribe]

Another new day.

Old Li sent Xiao Tong to the Huairou (Wulin Waijiao) crew, but his farewell still stopped in the underground parking lot.

When he returned to the 15th floor, he saw Ah Xin sitting behind a desk, browsing Weibo and smiling happily.

Old Li was curious, "What happened?"

Ah Xin complained, "Wang Jiawei publicly posted on Weibo, hoping to work with me on his new film. This jerk is notorious for trying to make trouble for people."

"Am I that stupid?"

"A lot of my fans are greeting him online right now. These people are really talented, using so many curse words and petty themes."

"I just had a lot of fun reading the comments."

Old Li, “…”

He walked over and took a look, and Ah Xin quickly showed him the updates on Sunglasses King's Weibo.

The other party wanted Ah Xin to join the (The Grandmaster) project.

heroine.

There's nothing wrong with it. The Grandmaster was completed in 2013, and it seems like there are still 8 years to wait, but the first time King of Sunglasses and Liu Zhenwei prepared the script was in 1997.

The formal preparations for the film began in 2001.

The title, starring actors, etc. were announced in 2002.

When it comes to filmmaking, King of Sunglasses is a rip-off.

Just as Zhao Xishan said, he didn't know who he was playing after filming the movie.

After watching it, Lao Li complained, "I believe Lao Wang can make a good movie, but filming his scenes is too torturous."

"There's no need to suffer that."

"Have you been interested in any film or television projects lately?"

After all, it is Ah Xin who has starred in (My Love from the Star), (Escape Plan), and (Dying to Survive) in the past few years, and she is working on this.

There is never a shortage of cakes of all sizes.

A few days later on March 3th, the Hong Kong Film Awards will be held.

This year, Li Wenyu was nominated for a series of major awards including Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Picture thanks to "Dying to Survive".

(Blue Jasmine) was also nominated for Best Director and Best Picture.

This is the third consecutive time that Pang Bing has been nominated for Best Actress, together with Gong Li.

Ah Xin was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.

No need to queue up to share the fruit.
If he was willing to appear, the 05 Academy Awards would almost be dominated by "Dying to Survive" + "Blue Jasmine" + "Perfect Stranger".

Xiao Tong was nominated for the Best Newcomer Award at the Academy Awards.

Ah Xin shook her head. "There are a lot of scripts, and a lot of them are weird, like the one in Columbia's production (The Pursuit of Happyness), where they offered me $100 million to play a small supporting role."

"And there was also a supporting role in MGM's Casino Royale, where I made $007 million for a cameo."

"It's not just me. Deng Xiao also received such supporting role invitations, similar to the ones sent to Azhi and Wang Kai after (Dark Glory) became a hit."

"Little Deng even sent me a Penguin message not long ago asking me that Wang Jiawei wanted to ask him to play Ip Man in (The Grandmaster) to replace Liang Chaowei."

"He was embarrassed to come to you and waste your time for such a small matter, so he asked me to ask."

"If Sunglasses King was unreliable, he would have taken on a regular TV series (Happiness is Like a Flower), where he would be paid 60 per episode."

Old Li, “…”

These really sound like high-end projects.

The question is, they are using their huge popularity and appeal to cheat the Chinese box office.

Li Wenyu made two cups of tea and said with a smile, "Let Deng Xiaoping reject the King of Sunglasses. It's not worth spending three to five years to get a Best Actor nomination."

"(As happy as a flower)? Not bad."

Now is still the period when Squid Games is becoming more and more popular in the United States.

The highest audience rating easily surpassed the first season of The Big Bang Theory.

It is also basic for other film and television companies to pay sky-high salaries to invite young actors like Shi Guang.

This is based on Huang Xiaoming's salary for the second season of "The Big Bang Theory".

People outside have to pay Deng Xun more than 80 yuan per episode.

A movie with more than 20 episodes would cost more than million RMB.

Ah Xin nodded and asked curiously, "Squid Game is so popular, why don't you start the second season? Even if the heroine Xiao Tong dies."

"You can also use a new female lead in the second season."

"Dark Glory is not easy to make a sequel. Squid is different."

The ending of Dark Glory is that all the Avengers defeated all the violent bullies and won.

The hero and heroine walk together hand in hand, a perfect ending.

Squid is the male protagonist Deng Xun, who is the only one who survived among hundreds of people and walked out of the killing base.

And after walking out, they saw the passerby who found him the first time, wrestled with him, and gave him a business card in the subway again.

That’s the Squid Game salesman played by Won Bin!

This is equivalent to setting the hook for a second season sequel, and countless viewers are looking forward to it.

Old Li was speechless.

For him, a big fan of the rebirth party who spends most of his time in his comfort zone, the second season ended badly.

Squidward Season 2 is not just an ordinary bad ending.

One is that the foreshadowing is lengthy. It takes two episodes to lay the groundwork at the beginning, and it is not until the third episode that the show's biggest selling point, the murder escape game, is introduced.

You have to know that when the first episode of the first season was aired, the foreshadowing in the first half was just okay even for ordinary viewers like Liu Xiaoli.

The story is okay.

The quality is not bad but there are no eye-catching selling points until the second half of the first episode, when the game quickly enters the slaughter mode.

This is what shocked the whole nation!
In the second season, there are side plots that take up a lot of screen time but fail to effectively advance the plot.

Analogous to the plot of Huang Mao and his long-legged girlfriend in "In the Name of People".

Also, the newly designed game rules are too complicated, losing the simple, straightforward and shocking effect of the first season.

What’s even more outrageous is that the violent massacre scenes that the audience most anticipated were greatly reduced in size.

There are so many things to complain about in the second season that it’s hard to list them all.

Li Wenyu smiled and sipped his tea. "I'm too lazy to write anymore. Instead of writing the second part, I might as well finish the third part of the (Hunger Games) illustrated book."

"Or make The Hunger Games into a big movie."

His screenwriting and writing abilities are as high as 100%, and if he works hard he can definitely optimize it and avoid all the pitfalls of Squid Game Season .

Re-establish this series.

It’s just that Shi Guang is currently focusing on a lot of projects, including the currently filming “The Hangover” movie series, “The Big Bang Theory”, and “2 Broke Girls”.

Then to (Breaking Bad), (How I Met Your Mother), (Reply 1988).

(The Martian) (Interstellar) (Slumdog Millionaire) and so on.

Even the one that has just been launched and is still in preparation (Temptation of Going Home) is a melodramatic and tragic love drama about wealthy families.

(John Wick 1) is still hitting theaters in the United States and is about to land in Europe.

There are too many good things to waste too much time on.

Ah Xin suddenly understood, and then her eyes rolled around. She walked over and started to flatter the elephant with sweet words.

Emotions are very heated.

Old Li, “???”

He had a little doubt in his mind, but it didn't stop him from letting Sister Xin eat first.

…………

A few days later, on March 3th, in the vast and beautiful sea of ​​Hong Kong Island, Li Wenyu was swimming in the sea with ease, and Pang Bing was also playing in the water, just like he did when he surfed in Shark Beach.

Tomorrow night is the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony.

Pang Bing can win the trophy for three consecutive years.

Just attend it for the sake of attending.

Before attending the event, I took a vacation to relax and have fun.

After Lao Li swam a few dozen meters underwater, he grabbed Xiao Tong from underwater and threw away the surfboard. Not far away, Dong Li and Da Meiyuan were also paddling towards here quickly.

Their swimming and surfing skills are average and they have just started learning.

This is the transition from developing good indoor swimming skills to learning to swim in the real ocean.

But everyone learns very quickly, and the worst one has a health foundation of over 80 and striving for 90.

Dong Li swiped over and then excitedly said, "Brother, it's Saturday again. John Wick: Chapter 1100 is in its third week of release in the US, and it's grossed $ million in the first five days."

"Not counting the weekend, it's already $4600 million."

"Sister Yuanyuan's film with a strong female lead has created a greater international impact than all my films combined."

"When it comes to boosting netizens' morale, I only admire John Wick."

At present, (Squid) has caused a storm in the audience in the United States.

John Wick is a box office storm!

It's only been released for 4600 days and it's already grossed million US dollars.

Not to mention easily breaking the box office performance of "Hero", there is also hope that it will hit the US box office figure of more than 7000 million US dollars of "Extreme Pro".

Is this an exaggeration? Or is it Li Wenyu's reputation as the richest man in mainland China that is to blame?

Columbia's publicity is unethical!!
A man earns more than 3 billion US dollars in 50 years, what a halo?
The black people in the neighborhood would be attracted by the gimmick of those groups of people who shopped for free, smashed and robbed the land every day.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which is also starred by all Asian faces, was able to bombard the box office of over 100 million US dollars in the United States. It had sufficient publicity and promotion and was of high quality.

This data won’t be bad.

Da Meiyuan stopped on the surfboard and floated on the sea. "We only sold it for 600 million US dollars. It's a big loss, right?"

Li Wenyu laughed, "Looks like a big loss now, but it's not like Jet Li's $240 million salary for Romeo Must Die and $500 million for Dragon's Kiss."

"And then during the heroic period, it will rise to 1000 million US dollars."

If it weren't for the big money, Columbia wouldn't have given (John Wick) the biggest publicity and release and scheduled screenings in theaters.

Theatrical releases are losing money, but DVDs can command a premium.

In addition, Da Meiyuan's international value, whether it is advertising endorsements or film remuneration, will usher in a new round of surge.

After this battle, in the minds of European and American audiences.

Da Meiyu is basically the overall spokesperson for oriental female stars, and has become completely deified.

In terms of status and influence, even Pang Bing is inferior to her.

After chatting and laughing and playing on the sea for a while, Lao Li and his family returned to their luxurious yacht to continue sailing.

In order to win the Best Newcomer trophy at the Academy Awards, Xiao Tong took leave from the crew of "Wulin Waijiao".

…………

Another new day.

The 05 Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony will soon open at the Hong Kong Island Coliseum.

At a certain hotel, Zhou Xingchi specially invited Huang Shengyi to attend the ceremony.

Just as the two of them were about to go out after meeting up, a young man in his 30s and an ordinary pretty girl came in from outside the gate.

The young man smiled and waved to Zhou Xingchi, "Axing, take me with you to the award ceremony. Casey and I will hang out at the party and see the world."

Zhou Xingchi walked quickly forward, his smile polite and his words pleasant, "Second Young Master, how come you're interested in attending the Academy Awards? It's an honor."

This is Li Jiacheng, the second son of the billionaire Li Zhaoji.

Before the Asian financial crisis hit in 1997, Li Zhaoji had indeed defeated Huanggua Li for several consecutive years to become the richest Chinese.

From the name of this Mr. Li, we can tell how much Li Zhaoji and Huanggua love and hate each other.

It can be said that marrying into a wealthy family is the dream of countless female stars?

Young Master Li’s family is the most powerful.

As the two sides approached, Second Young Master Li lit a cigar and said with a smile, "Call me Second Young Master, but don't call me Mr. Li. I only listen to my father."

"Meet Mr. Li Shiguang. Weibo is going public, and my dad's investment company already holds a 4.5% stake in Shiguang Weibo. It's almost time for public disclosure."

Zhou Xingchi exclaimed, "No wonder Weibo's market capitalization exceeded HK$430 billion in just over a month."

Zhou Xingchi was also the most eager spectator.

He knew that Li Wenyu's team, including IDG and Samsung, had put a total of 25% of Weibo shares on the market.

SoftBank bought 8%, and the Li family, worth hundreds of billions, bought 4.5%?
I heard that Zhou Hongyi, who invested in Big Penguin, borrowed 10 billion to buy stocks, which exceeded 3%.

Just these three teams and families account for over 15.5%.

For example, Shenzhen Capital Group, Sequoia Capital, etc., also want to hold 2% or 3% of the shares for long-term holding?

How can there be so many opportunities for ordinary investors?
The price has been inflated since its listing without any fluctuation. If he had the courage to invest a lot of money and sell the 1 million as soon as possible, he would have made at least 5000 million by now.

Don't worry about not being able to sell it.

Young Master Li nodded with a smile, "Mr. Li has praised Ms. Gao. A John Wick movie will replicate the glory of Jackie Chan's work in Rumble in the Bronx and Rush Hour."

"The reports he created at the press conference on the development of the internet celebrity economy and professional investment are certainly trustworthy."

Mr. Li is a wealthy and playboy in Hong Kong who often appears in gossip magazines.

My current girlfriend is a model and has quite frequent contact with the entertainment industry.

He doesn't understand the in-depth situation of the internet celebrity economy, but Li Wenyu's path as a founder who has made it so quickly makes it easy for shareholders to look favorably on him.

Young Master Li and Zhou Xingchi were chatting animatedly.

The model girlfriend Casey he brought with him also started to compete with Huang Shengyi for beauty, and after a round of comparison, she found that she was outshined.

Cathy began to show off her jewelry, bags, and other items invisibly.

This is the daughter-in-law who will be rewarded with HK$1 billion per pregnancy by Li Zhaoji in the future.

Huang Shengyi stared with wide eyes at the luxury goods that appeared in the center of her vision.

I occasionally glanced at Li Ershao for a few years, and it was confirmed.

Li Wenyu's senior brother once again ruined her dream of marrying into a wealthy family!
I can't even eat it with my eyes closed.

As for brand-name bags, clothing, jewelry, etc., Li Wenyu never shows off in daily life and doesn't care about them.

Pang Bing, Li Jiaxin and others have also gradually developed the habit of being too lazy to show off.

Unless you have an endorsement contract worth tens of millions or more, you need to fulfill your endorsement contract in public.

Pang Bing, Li Jiaxin and others appeared at small gatherings or something.

It's basically super down to earth.

The mainland entertainment industry, which started from Beijing Film Academy and spread outward, also has a fashion trend that is not burdened by famous brands and is not invigorated by false reputation.

These things that Cathy showed?
Huang Shengyi just had a polite smile that said, "As long as I'm not embarrassed, it doesn't matter whether you are embarrassed or not."

The two chatted for a while, then left the hotel and got into their respective nanny cars. Casey said, bewildered, "This Kung Fu 2 heroine is from mainland China and doesn't understand fashion?"

"Still can't you tell how expensive my bag and clothes are?"

Young Master Li was stunned for a second before he started cursing, "Puchi! Stop humiliating your own intelligence! That little Huang was the first school beauty that Shiguang Li Sheng promoted when he debuted."

"Don't be so embarrassing next time."

"Those big guys, what do they use? What's the biggest and best brand?"

He began to wonder if his girlfriend, whom he had been dating for half a year, would lower the IQ of his offspring.

The problem is that his father is quite strong-willed. His ex-girlfriend refused to get Li Zhaoji's consent and was opposed to her marrying into the Li family.
