Sina Entertainment News

"The box office of "Close Enemies", which was just released during the Christmas period, exceeded 42 million in three days, and "Love in a Fallen City" also had a box office of 24 million."
International online reporting
"Since the beginning of the final chapter of the vampire-themed "Twilight" produced by Chiyou and distributed by Warner Bros., it has been singing triumphant songs and breaking records."
"In the 40 days since the film was released in more than 60 countries around the world, the global box office has exceeded 700 million US dollars, becoming the highest-grossing film in the Twilight Saga series."
"Following strong requests from fans, Chiyou Pictures announced yesterday that the second part of the final chapter of "The Twilight Saga" will be released on November 16 next year."
The word '700 million' that was trending on Weibo was like the cause of pinkeye. Wang Zhonglei took a look at it and his eyes were almost bloodshot.
"With 700 million U.S. dollars, Chi You could earn nearly 300 million U.S. dollars during June 4th. Li Chen is so damn lucky that it drives people crazy!"
"Brother, I will be satisfied if our "1942" can earn 300 million US dollars globally." At Huayi headquarters, Wang Zhonglei and his eldest brother Wang Zhongjun couldn't help but complain.
They were also purchased novels and then adapted into screenplays.
He didn't dare to expect that "1942" would be as perverted as "Twilight", but he could always look forward to half of it.
After all, today's "Chinese Police" has created a film history record of 1.58 billion, and is proud of the Chinese film and television industry.
As long as "1942" can win 1.3 billion at the domestic box office, it will be almost 200 million US dollars. No matter how hard Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States work hard, it is still conceivable to collect 300 million US dollars.
"Okay, Zhonglei, no matter what, "Dragon Gate" has exceeded 300 million, which is always a good thing. Tell Xu Li to prepare a celebration banquet."
One Christmas indeed made the two blockbusters "Thirteen Hairpins" and "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" take the lead.
There was a smile on Wang Zhongjun's face, and the gloom of the past few days was swept away.
As long as the domestic box office of "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" exceeds 300 million, Huayi will recoup the cost, and the rest will be just the profit.
Wang Zhonglei chuckled and said: "Brother, you don't need to tell me, I have already made arrangements. I will call Li Chen later. How can the celebration banquet be without him?"
Wang Zhongjun frowned slightly, feeling that his brother was looking for trouble: "There is no need, just send an invitation, he probably won't come"
Li Chen was really dumbfounded when he received the call from Wang Zhongjun.
Wang Zhongjun is the producer of "Thirteen Hairpins". Knowing that the overseas copyright of "Thirteen Hairpins" was sold for a high price of 68 million US dollars, he naturally calculated that as long as the domestic box office of "Thirteen Hairpins" exceeds 500 million, "Thirteen Hairpins" will be No money will be lost.
"Director Li, I'm afraid "Thirteen Hairpins" will break 500 million before New Year's Day. It's a win-win situation for you and me this time. "Dragon Gate" will hold a celebration banquet tomorrow night, and you should come to support it."
"Lest those gossip media write about the discord between you and me, what's the matter!" Wang Zhonglei smiled happily.
Li Chen refused even more readily: "I'm not in Beijing, Mr. Wang, let Yang Siwei go to the celebration banquet on my behalf."
"Huh? You're not in the capital? Then where are you?" Wang Zhonglei almost blurted out.
Li Chen smiled and said: "Mr. Wang, are you more concerned about my schedule than Yifei? Do you want me to report to you somewhere in the future?"
Wang Zhonglei smiled awkwardly and said: "Huh? Hahaha, no, no, no, I'm just asking casually. Director Li is busy with personnel, so I won't bother you. You and I will talk about the opening ceremony of Zhizhen Painting Dream Factory later."
Li Chen secretly smiled in his heart, what do I have to talk to you about? You should just worry about your "1942".
In my impression, Zhang Guoli's son seemed to be in trouble after the Chinese New Year.
Today is not the same as in the past life. You can just suck it. If you pretend to be more low-key, you can still make money as an actor.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhonglei said to himself: "If you are not in the capital, where are you?"
At this time, some netizens from Hong Kong posted photos of their encounter with Liu Yifei's mother and daughter on Weibo.
Hong Kong Island. Sai Kung. "Kowloon Walled City" crew
It's rare for Xiang Huaru to come to the set. If it wasn't because Li Chen came to visit the set, he wouldn't come, even if his son Xiang Zuo is also on the set.
The two of them plus Andy Lau stood at the side of the set chatting.
Xiang Zuo, wearing his coat, stood beside his father with a gray face, eager to try.
He had just been beaten up by Wang Baoqiang, and he didn't even take off his makeup.
Not far away, Wang Baoqiang, Deng Chao, and Peng Yuyan were hanging wires, preparing to film the scene where Wang Jiu hugged Chen Luojun and Si Zai.
The front is blocked by a green screen.
"Get ready! 12 throws." Lu Yang's shout was clearly heard by everyone on the set.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Baoqiang, who had long shawl hair and was wearing a colorful suit, bent his knees to gather strength, held Deng Chao and Peng Yuyan in his hands and shouted loudly.
Wia hung the two people who were "lifted" by Wang Baoqiang and fell to the ground realistically.
A scary sneer came from Wang Baoqiang's throat.
"Ka!" Lu Yang shouted, and the staff quickly gathered around him.
"It's okay, everything's okay."
Deng Chao seemed to hit the ground head first just now. Although he knew that Wia was hanging on him, he still shocked everyone.
"It's okay, it's okay." Deng Chao and Peng Yuyan stood up at the same time and patted the dust on their bodies with a smile.
Li Chen also expressed concern: "Is everything okay?"
"It's okay, Director Li, it's just a joke." Deng Chao laughed loudly through the crowd.
Wang Baoqiang also laughed and said: "Brother Chao is fine, Director Li, I'm taking care of him!"
Li Chen nodded and said no more.
Xiang Zuo explained with a smile: "Director Li, these are just trivial matters. Compared with the hardships I endured while practicing martial arts, these are nothing."
"Director Li, when can you let me be the protagonist again, I promise that I will never let you down."
Li Chen glanced at Xiang Huaru, his precious son.
Just now in the car, Xiang Huaru had this idea.
Xiang Huacheng is very happy that Li Chen can bring him China Xing to play in "Ip Man 4" and "Kowloon Walled City".
When he learned that Li Chen had passed away a few days ago, he even sent someone to deliver a gold ornament.
Xiang Hua said: "Director Li, I am a rough man and I speak straightforwardly. Don't be offended."
"If this guy can be the protagonist, I, China Xing, will fully fund it, but I will only take 30% of it." Xiang Huaru raised his thumb, index finger, and ring finger and said in an imposing manner.
Li Chen did not respond immediately. Both father and son looked at Li Chen with bright eyes.
After a long while, Li Chen nodded and said: "If there is a suitable role, I will consider it, Mr. Xiang."
Xiang Hua was a little dissatisfied with Li Chen's answer, and narrowed his eyes slightly at Liu Dehua.
Liu Dehua immediately smiled and said: "Xiang Zuo's kung fu is good, Li Chen, Xiang Sheng's favorite is this boy."
"Brother Hua, I will consider it if there is a suitable role." Li Chen still said the same thing.
"Mr. Xiang, I will consider favors when it comes to casting. I know that Mr. Xiang is not short of money. To put it bluntly, Rongchen Pictures' projects are never short of funds."
Xiang Hua was suffocated: "Director Li, you misunderstood, that's not what I meant."
"I heard that when Director Li first debuted, Ying Huang was interested in buying the Hong Kong release of "Crazy Stone" for 10 million." "My move today is the same, just to show my sincerity."
Xiang Huaru put his hands behind his back, glanced at Xiang Zuo and said: "To be honest, I, Xiang, have money and people, if it were still 20 years ago in the last century."
"This guy wants to be the leading actor, it's just a matter of my words. Even today, my words to someone have some weight in Hong Kong Island."
"But times have changed. In the past few years, I have invested in one movie and lost money in another. Only "Genius Gunman" has not lost money. I know that this is the general trend."
“In the future, going north is the general trend.”
"As long as Director Li can help this boy like me realize his dream, I, Xiang Huaru, will leave this sentence here today. If Director Li has any requests on Hong Kong Island in the future, I, the Xiang family, will have no objection."
Liu Dehua sighed in his heart: "Xiang Sheng is a smart man, so he changed the name of China Xing very promptly."
"Behind Li Chen is the China Film and Television Bureau, which in ancient times was the imperial court. A fool like Xiang Sheng would never dream of joining this group."
Li Chen knew what Xiang Hua was thinking, but in this corner of Hong Kong Island, he could go to him if he wanted anything.
There are many Hong Kong filmmakers who want to collaborate with me.
As long as he shows a little bit of interest, I'm afraid Yinghuang will immediately crowd around him.

While several people were talking, Li Chen's phone rang.
Liu Yifei and her daughter were intercepted by Huo Wenxi.
The black Maybach moved steadily forward on the Central Avenue.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Huo Wenxi turned around and smiled: "Yifei, I didn't even tell my sister when I came to Hong Kong. I wouldn't have known about it unless I saw it on Weibo."
Liu Yifei smiled and said: "I came here with Li Chen. I thought I would go back tomorrow, so I didn't tell you."
Huo Wenxi glanced at Liu Xiaoli again and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be in a hurry to come back tomorrow and let me fulfill my friendship as a landlord."
"When I went to the capital before, I always bothered Yifei and Director Li. This time I will definitely give them my best attention."
Half an hour ago, Huo Wenxi learned from his subordinates that Liu Yifei appeared in Central, Hong Kong Island.
Without saying a word, he left the crew of "Reverse War" which was promoting in Hong Kong Island, and in a hurry, he asked for a car from the company and headed straight for Central.
Almost immediately, her boss called her: "It would be best if you could meet Li Chen. If you can't, then you should treat Liu Yifei well."
"I understand, boss, don't worry."
Liu Xiaoli handled this kind of scene with grace and ease, smiling gently: "I'm afraid it won't work this time. New Year's Day is the day after tomorrow. Time is too tight. Next time, please come and pick us up."
Huo Wenxi didn't bother, and immediately said: "Okay, next time. And, aunt, please don't say it's troublesome, it's not troublesome at all."
Huo Wenxi invited Liu Yifei and her daughter to have a meal at Fulinmen, and then sent them back to the Peninsula Hotel. Before leaving, he forced a heavy thing to Liu Yifei, saying it was for the child.
Li Chen returned to the hotel in the evening and didn't care when he heard Miss Liu talk about it.
On the day of arrival in Hong Kong, gifts are given to all kinds of people and for various reasons.
Xiang Huaru, Huo Wenxi, the hostess from TVB, etc.
Either it was given to the child, or it was expressed after learning that Li Chen celebrated his birthday a few days ago.
On Weibo, the news that Li Chen visited "Kowloon Walled City" and Liu Yifei's mother and daughter met Yinghuang Huo Wenxi became a hot search topic in real time.
Wang Zhonglei suddenly realized that Li Chen had gone to Hong Kong Island.
The next day, Li Chen accompanied his mother and daughter to see several luxury homes.
I don’t come to Hong Kong Island often, but now that I have children, I still need a place to stay.
I looked at several places and found that either the location was average or the area was too small, so I was not very satisfied.
No. 10000, Shennan Avenue, Nanshan District, Shenzhen
Early in the morning, Penguin employees gossiped in their respective groups.
"I just saw the big boss and the second boss show up at the same time. Am I hallucinating?"
"You read that right, I saw it too. I thought I was seeing a ghost so early in the morning. What's going on?"
"I don't know, I guess some big shots are here!"
"Last time during this battle, I remember my parents arrived!"
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Chen and Liu Yifei appeared at the Penguin Building, a landmark building in Shenzhen.
Before Li Chen saw Brother Xiao Ma, the traces of the two of them were revealed on Weibo.
"Li Chen and Liu Yifei appeared in Penguin Tower!"
"I met Liu Yifei in person!"
"Liu Yifei is so beautiful!"
On Weibo, someone revealed the back of Liu Yifei and Li Chen appearing in Penguin Tower.
Netizens praised: 360 degrees, no blind spots, beautiful no matter how you shoot.
"Didn't Li Zi and Tian Xian still stay in Hong Kong yesterday? Why did they go to Penguin today?"
"Little Lizi learned the fairy sister's subtle steps, and her whereabouts are erratic!"
"The left hand leads the big horse, and the right hand pulls the small horse. No one is delayed in the two carriages. Little Plum has both sides!"
"Didn't the two of them stay in Xiangjiang looking at mansions in the morning and then cross the river in the afternoon?"
At Penguin Building, many employees were extremely excited.
In this life, I actually met the immortal himself, and it was at a close distance.
Yesterday I was envious of those across the river, but today it was my turn.
Various candid photos and texts of angels in the circle of friends.
"I actually saw a living immortal, and I will die with no regrets in this life!"
"She's so beautiful. It's not during working hours. I'm definitely going up there to take a group photo. Little Plum can't stop me!"
"I just saw the fairy seeming to smile at me, and I was dumbfounded. It's so embarrassing. I should put on a more handsome pose after all!"
In the elevator, the lady in Penguin's professional suit led Li Chen and his wife up to the 39th floor.
Miss Liu held back her smile and whispered: "Look at Penguin's building, it will cost you nine brilliant diamonds!"
Li Chen smiled and said: "But only you and I own the Splendid Diamond. There are many Penguins. Counting them together, you and I are also one of them."
Liu Yifei raised her head slightly and thought for a while, it seemed that Li Chen was right.
She knew that Li Chen held shares in Penguin.
The young lady in black professional suits was frightened when she heard this. She secretly guessed that this person who could receive such a grand reception from the big boss must hold a lot of shares.
The big boss asked her to come down to pick up Liu Yifei and Li Chen, but she thought she had heard wrongly.
With a lot of questions, I realized that it was true when I saw Liu Yifei's unforgettable beauty.
Outside the elevator door on the 39th floor, Ma Huateng was smiling, quietly waiting for this curious outsider.
