Huayu: Female celebrities are looking for treasures in me

"what?"

"It's not my business?"

Yang Mi was completely bewildered upon hearing Zhang Li's words.

She was a child star who got lucky and landed a small role in "True Legend," which launched her acting career. She has acted in quite a few TV series, but not many movies.

Now, in terms of fame and influence, he is even less than Zhang Li.

No, she might not even be as popular as Jing Tian.

Zhang Li is currently riding high with "The Message," what does that have to do with her?
"You're lucky," Zhang Li said, spouting nonsense without hesitation.

After Yang Mi became a sensation with "Palace", she starred in a terrible movie called "Mysterious Island". However, the gimmick still attracted many male fans to the cinema, making the box office more than 100 million yuan.

So, after he became a sensation with "Meteor Garden," he starred in a supporting role in the classic film "The Message," alongside actors like Li Bingbing, Zhou Xun, and Huang Xiaoming. Naturally, this attracted many girls to the cinema.

The majority of people who follow celebrities are girls, while boys tend to prefer playing various games, etc.

In short, all of this was expected.

Of course, even without the current situation.

The Message itself is also a successful film.

While he may not be as widely recognized as the "Good Boy Tiger" (a nickname for a popular male celebrity), his recent popularity far surpasses that of the "Good Boy Tiger."

His acting skills are even better than those of the character "Good Boy Tiger," and his portrayal of Bai Xiaonian will only be more outstanding and attract more fans, adding to the film's appeal.

In this situation, the only difference is how much benefit he will gain; failure is absolutely impossible for him.

But he was lucky; his popularity, acting skills, and good works created a chemical reaction.

"The phenomenal success is going to continue."

Zhang Li's eyes were full of anticipation.

"What do you mean?" Yang Mi kicked Zhang Li.

“I said,” Zhang Li grabbed Yang Mi’s calf, “Mi-jie, you should tone it down a bit and stop doing that all the time.”

"What, you don't like it?" Yang Mi asked back.

If we're talking about looks, she's a beauty, but not as pretty as Liu Yifei or Jing Tian; she just has her own unique charm.

But when it comes to figure, neither Liu Yifei nor Jing Tian is as outstanding as her.

Although the dance stunt double has the presence, the feet...
Their talent in terms of career advancement can only be described as B and C level, respectively.

To her, he was like a younger sister.

Her curves, long legs, and beautiful feet are all advantages.

She noticed that Zhang Li's gaze often lingered on her legs and chest, mainly on her legs.

She clearly wanted to see it, but she was just letting him have it.

“I do like her, but she doesn’t belong to me.” Zhang Li answered honestly: “She can be admired from afar but not touched. A gentleman expresses his feelings but stops at propriety.”

"I think it's because I'm a real man, but Honey, don't forget I have a girlfriend."

"Heh." Yang Mi's lips curled slightly: "They're my girlfriends~"

Zhang Li: “.”

"Could it be that you, Honey, want to join too?"

"You're so vain!" Yang Mi waved her hand dismissively and withdrew her foot. "I wouldn't even be a mistress, let alone a fifth or sixth?"

"It's not like all the good men in the world are dead."

"At least for now, I long for a unique, one-of-a-kind love, a love that lasts a lifetime."

"If I am betrayed in the future, at least the beginning was beautiful."

At this point, Yang Mi glanced at Zui and snorted, "Why am I telling you all this?"

"I'm here today to discuss the script with you, boss."

Zhang Li didn't continue the previous topic, and nodded with his arms crossed: "Secretary Yang, is there anything you don't understand?"

"When did I become your secretary?"

"It doesn't sound right if you call me boss and I call you employee. Secretary Yang is quite good."

"You'd better not have any unrealistic ideas!"

"What unrealistic idea?"

"Tch, hurry up and tell me the scene."

"Hehe, I heard that some people initially disliked this script?"

Yang Mi: "."

Zhang Li's original screenplay is undoubtedly excellent.

There's no need to question his acting skills now.

In addition, the success of "The Message" further solidified this.

For the time being, no one doubts his ability to choose scripts.

As for "Mysterious Island," she was terrified several times after reading the script.

If I can film it, it will definitely become my masterpiece.

Zhang Li's acting coaching helped her improve her familiarity with the script and characters, and even enhance her acting skills.

If it's legitimate to take advantage of loopholes, then we must keep things stable.

"Then tell me."

Zhang Li did not refuse.

It just so happens that he had already finished filming his scenes for "Let the Bullets Fly".

Let's let Yang Mi get a feel for the place first, so it will be easier to film in Hainan later.

However, filming for this movie won't be until April or May of next year.

He is now filming "Love is Not Blind".

We hope to compete for a spot in next year's Spring Festival film season.

In the blink of an eye, another two days have passed.

October 3rd marked the fifth day since the release of "The Message".

"I don't know if the box office record has been surpassed."

Zhang Li, holding Liu Shishi, took out his phone to check the news online. "Shocking! This movie is poised to become the new weekly box office champion."

What's so exciting about the rumors of even better results in four days?

Behind the Phenomenon of Zhang Li's Film Viewing Success

Take you behind the scenes of Bai Xiaonian's story.

The audition rumors for Zhang Li and the details of her role have been revealed for the first time.

"."

Various news stories emerged one after another.

Zhang Li naturally chose to watch the most popular one.

It's a news article from Southern Metropolis Daily.

The content is very simple: it says that "The Message" has accumulated 1.17 million yuan in box office revenue in four days.

After accumulating nearly 50 million in box office revenue on the first and second days, the two films each grossed over 30 million on October 1st and 2nd, but not over 40 million, still limited by their subject matter.

The film "The Founding of a Republic" grossed 124.36 million yuan in its first week of release, after four and a half days of screenings, breaking the record for the highest-grossing opening week for a domestic film.

Although "The Message" is not as good as it used to be, based on the situation in the first four days and the current word-of-mouth, it can easily take in another thousand yuan in box office in half a day.

Today is Friday, and the 4th and 5th are the weekend.

This means that, whether it's the cumulative box office over four and a half days or the opening week box office, "The Message" can easily beat "The Founding of a Republic" and become the leader for a period of time.

[First place is secured, Zhang Li is awesome.]

[Zhang Li is indeed amazing. The main actors in this movie are Zhou Xun, Li Bingbing, and Huang Xiaoming, but everyone is paying attention to his role as the third male lead, Bai Xiaonian.]

Regardless of the film's quality, many people watched it specifically to support Zhang Li, so his contribution is undeniable.

Zhang Li doesn't even participate in roadshows, but her strong presence remains unchanged.

[As Sister Xun said, Zhang Li is unavailable because she has a very good relationship with the main cast and crew of "The Message".]

[He mentioned Zhang Li wherever they went on the roadshow, so they seem to have a very good relationship.]

Zhang Li is a lucky charm; she definitely contributed to bringing in an extra 100 million yuan at the box office for "The Message."

[Indeed, it did. The box office was high a few days ago because of it, and now everyone is talking about "The Message." The positive word-of-mouth is attracting even more people to support it, not just those who like the subject matter and the actors. That's also a credit to it.]

But a niche film is a niche film. I think it will lack staying power and will probably struggle to even break 200 million.

[Originally, moviegoers contributed 100 million yuan to the box office, and Zhang Li's fans contributed 50 million yuan, driving up the box office by 50 million yuan, that's my prediction.]

Box office numbers don't matter; let me say this movie is genuinely good. It has both cringe-worthy and tear-jerking moments, and it's equally good at yuri (lesbian) and BL (boys' love) themes.

Are you sure this is good news?

[The performances of everyone were almost flawless, representing a significant breakthrough in the genre of Chinese films. The story is very different from the novel, but the overall pacing is very reliable. This film could have grossed 200 million without Zhang Li, but I think it could have grossed even more. The ending was good, but I think it could have been even better! This film is an excellent must-see!!!]

【.】

There are all sorts of guesses.

"How much do you think this movie will ultimately gross?" Liu Shishi's voice suddenly rang out.

"More than 300 million, let's say 350 million," Zhang Li said after a very rational thought.

According to the original trajectory, "The Message" grossed $3358.6 million, which is equivalent to 2.25 million yuan.

This movie features two leading actresses and one young actor to boost its popularity, and the marketing between the two leading ladies of Huayi Brothers is very eye-catching.

The film is scheduled for the National Day holiday, and Huayi Brothers currently holds a high position and can secure more screen time.

2.25 million yuan is almost the maximum potential of this movie.

Even without fame, Zhang Li felt her acting skills were better than Xiao Erhu's, but that might not be the case in the market.

But things are different now. The impact of the fan economy on this film is purely incremental.

He, Zhang Li, is worth at least 50 million, assuming the quality of the film is guaranteed.

This situation will bring a bigger and more enthusiastic wave of publicity to the film, which will surely attract more people to the cinema to support it.

Three hundred million is a figure that can be achieved under normal circumstances.

An extra 50 million was Zhang Li's hopeful expectation.

"You're really something, a key supporting actor in a 300 million dollar movie." Liu Shishi's beautiful eyes shone brightly as she kissed Zhang Li on the cheek.

"Three hundred million is nothing," Zhang Li said, unconcerned.

If he's the male lead, then it's something to be happy about.

But he already knew a lot about the future; within just ten years, there were quite a few movies with box office revenues of two or three billion.

"Lost in Thailand", "Monster Hunt", "The Mermaid" - 1 billion, 2 billion, 3 billion.

It's estimated that there are movies with box office revenues of up to four billion.

What's 300 million?
However, box office revenue is not the only criterion for judging a film.

"The Message" is not a commercial film, so it's already quite remarkable that it grossed over 200 million.

However, if "Love is Not Blind" can gross 3.5 million, then it would probably gross even more if he starred alongside Liu Yifei. That's when people start bragging.

And "Let the Bullets Fly" is another one worth looking forward to.

His current expectation for "The Message" is actually to win an award.

First, I'll win the Best Newcomer award at the three major film festivals.

Next year, when "Under the Hawthorn Tree" is released, their ambitions will be even greater.

"How much box office do you think 'Mysterious Island' will make?" Liu Shishi suddenly asked.

“Three hundred million is the starting price!” Zhang Li replied.

"And what about 'Love is Not Blind'?"

"Aim for 500 million?"

Liu Shishi: “.”

“I don’t ask for much. If the first movie I act in with you has a box office of over 8 million, then I will pretend that the hat you gave me never happened.”

Zhang Li:?
There is such a good thing.

“Deal.” Zhang Li readily agreed: “If I can’t do it, I’ll keep writing scripts and acting in movies with you until one of them grosses over 8 million.”

Liu Shishi:?

I feel like my expectations are too low. (End of Chapter)
