Chapter 468 Miss Liu’s Troubles
From the time Li Chen signed Xiaojufei Deng Ziqi, he had no intention of letting her shine only in this small area of the Chinese music scene.
The European and American music scene is where she belongs.
"Light Years Away" is just a stepping stone.
The song "Light Years Away" made Deng Ziqi's name known to more people around the world through "Passengers".
Yu Kewei was envious in his heart, but he had nothing to be dissatisfied with.
I am the winner of the first season of The Voice.
Deng Ziqi entered Yang Siwei's office. As soon as he entered, he discovered that there were two foreigners.
One of them she knew was Tim Smith from Chiyou.
She has never seen the other one.
"Director Li, Mr. Yang, Mr. Chen." Deng Ziqi greeted several people one by one before sitting down.
"Ziqi, this is Mr. Paul M. Robinson, an executive at our Warner Music headquarters." Chen Jianshun took the initiative to help Deng Ziqi clear up his doubts.
Deng Ziqi was ignorant, but felt inexplicably nervous and excited in his heart.
“I’m here to see you today because the boss has decided that your focus will be on the European and American music scene or the global music scene in the future.”
“The company and Warner Music Concerts will make you a great player in all aspects. A flag for our Chinese singers in the global music scene.”
Chen Jianshun listened to Yang Siwei's high-sounding words, but he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
To put it bluntly, it’s not fun to earn RMB, but it’s fun to reap dollars.
However, Chen Jianshun has no doubt that Li Chen has this strength.
One phone call will require someone from the headquarters to come to China.
"Yang, Mr. Yang, Director Li, can I do it?" Deng Ziqi was a little embarrassed when he spoke.
"Don't feel pressured. If you can't do it, it's because I don't have the vision. It's not your fault." Li Chen said with a smile.
Deng Ziqi was excited: "Don't worry, Director Li, I won't let you down."
Li Chen laughed loudly: "I won't say this until you win the Grammy. Late.”
Everyone in the office gasped: Grammy? Director Li's ambition is really quite big.
In the past few months, Deng Ziqi has not only performed "Light Years Away" at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, Paris, London and other places, but also performed at major music festivals in Southeast Asia.
Everyone knows that Deng Ziqi is going to be popular.
But Deng Ziqi never expected that he would reach the world in one step.
Chinese Film Report
“Liu Yifei and Leonardo DiCaprio’s first co-starring movie “Inception” recently started a global premiere tour.”
“ As the most popular Asian actress in Hollywood, Liu Yifei has always been online and looks like a goddess.”
"At the premiere in London, Liu Yifei appeared in a long aqua blue casual dress, and the top was embellished with dots to show her fashion skills."
"At the premieres in Madrid, Paris and Berlin, Liu Yifei even showed off white Wearing various styles such as casual suits, contrasting long skirts, and midriff-baring high-waisted skirts, the ever-changing goddess stunned the audience.”
“On July 9, “Inception” will premiere in Beijing. ”
New York
Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei had just finished attending the event.
The mother and daughter have rarely lived in this house in New York in recent years.
Liu Xiaoli, who has been flying around the world with her daughter, clearly feels that her daughter seems to have something on her mind these past two days.
It seems that since the Shanghai Film Festival, my daughter has been feeling sad.
"What's wrong with you recently, Sissy?" Liu Yifei had just finished taking a shower, holding a water-blue hairband, with a small face full of exhaustion.
"It's nothing, Mom, I'm just tired." Liu Yifei didn't want to say, she wanted to explore Li Chen's thoughts.
When she saw Xiao Yanzi's bloated appearance at the Shanghai Film Festival, she was shocked. Is it true that all women who have given birth are like this?
She really wanted to give birth to Li Chen's child, but she never got pregnant, and was frightened by Xiao Yanzi's ugly appearance, so she could not help but have wild thoughts.
In addition, in the past two days, the Hong Kong lady who married into a wealthy family made a generous declaration of artificial insemination: "I will accept it if necessary!"
It is said that it is because her husband's family has prescribed Only after paying a sky-high price of 500 million per child, the woman known as the most beautiful Hong Kong sister gave in.
She has met Li Chen’s parents. Will this kind of thing happen to her in the future?
After returning to the room, Liu Yifei called Li Chen.
The two talked on the phone for a while, and Liu Yifei suddenly said something unexpected.
"You said, will you still like me if I become ugly?"
Li Chen couldn't laugh or cry. It must be past ten o'clock in the evening in New York, and Miss Liu didn't sleep. Is this the reason for such an overseas phone call?
"Sissi, what are you thinking about in your little head all day long?"
"Then let me ask you, will you still marry me if I have no money?"
Liu Yifei immediately said seriously: "Of course I will! I am not short of money!"
"No It’s over, I already have you, do you still have beauty in your eyes?”
Sweet words always work, at least Miss Liu is very happy with them.
A burst of silvery laughter came from the phone: "It sounds like there are no beauties except me!"
Li Chen chuckled: "Even if there is, it has changed hands several times. I have mysophobia, as you know."
"Forget it, let's believe you for once, but do you think Auntie will offer a high price one day? I’ll give birth to a baby!”
Li Chen then realized that Miss Liu was frightened by the recent rumors about Dame Li and her long-term infertility.
"You, you! Don't scare yourself for a day. The Hong Kong girl is already 40, how old are you!"
"Relax, some things happen by accident, and I don't care. Urgent, what are you in a hurry for?”
After talking to Li Chen on the phone, Liu Yifei felt much more relaxed. Sina Entertainment News
"Since "Passengers" was released on June 10, in just eleven days, the box office in the mainland has exceeded 400 million, and North America has won the box office championship for two consecutive weeks."
“The total global box office has exceeded 200 million U.S. dollars. Industry insiders predict that "Passengers" will surpass "Heroes" to become the highest-grossing Chinese film."
"A few days ago, John Ku The transnational blockbuster "The Spy", which stars Sack, Li Li, Zhou Yunfa and others, was released nationwide. In less than five days, the film achieved a box office of 21 million yuan in its first weekend. "
As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.
On the one hand, Liu Yifei and Fan Zhiteng were frequently searched for "Inception" and "Passengers".
On the one hand, "Passengers" outshines others at the box office, and is worse than "The Spy".
Li Chen had already foreseen this.
Even in the previous life, the box office of "The Spy" didn't seem to have any trouble.
Otherwise, Li Chen would not have any impression at all.
Huayi's big and small kings lost the bottom.
This first round of duel with Li Chen was a self-inflicted humiliation.
Netizens ridiculed, Wang and Xiaowang can only look forward to "Earthquake" to regain their face.
Strike while the iron is hot, the Sixth Princess made a special episode for "Passengers".
Li Chen took Li Ming, Fan Zhitong, Zhu Yilong and others went happily.
When we arrived at the Sixth Princess’s studio, the host was also an acquaintance.
The script has been familiarized in advance. Jingwei chatted with a few people for a while and then officially started recording.
"Director Li, Li Chen, Brother Ming, and Yilong welcome you to this issue of Chinese film reports."
Li Chen and the four of them gave a concise self-introduction to the camera in turn. .
""Passengers" is now continuing to set box office records for Chinese-language movies."
"栤椤, Brother Ming, this should be the highest-grossing work since you two started acting, right?"
" Did you ever think that "Passengers" would set box office records for its midnight premiere, first day, and first week?"
Fan Zhitong and Li Ming looked at each other and smiled.
Fan Zhengtong answered first: "I really never thought about it. I know that Director Li's movie box office will not be low, but it is quite surprising to see more than 50 million in a single day."
Jingwei looked at Li Ming again: "What about Brother Ming? Is this the second time you and Li Ming have collaborated?"
Li Ming nodded and smiled: "That's right! "Space Passengers" can be played in I didn’t expect it to be a hit all over the world.”
“Director Li is so awesome.”
Li Chen was amused, after spending 85 million U.S. dollars, he had to pay attention.
He knew that Li Ming was unwilling to mention the film "The Ghost in the Heart". After all, the box office of this film was simply a shame for Li Ming.
Compared with "Passengers", it would be an exaggeration to say that it is far behind.
Sometimes Li Ming wonders whether Director Li chose him and Fan Chongchen on purpose.
The purpose is to show it to Hua Yi.
Three years ago Hua Yi's "The Ghost in My Heart" starred him and Fan Zhitong.
The box office was only a sensational 20,000.
On Hong Kong Island, it was canceled within one day of its release, which was simply too horrible to watch.
"Director Li, what about you, have you ever thought that the box office of "Passengers" would be so strong?"
Li Chen smiled and said, "Of course I have. They say that it is possible at the box office in the mainland this year. It will exceed 10 billion.”
“In my opinion, 10 billion is just a guarantee”
“The box office record of “Passengers” will not last long”
Li Chen's words sounded a bit exaggerated to a few people's ears.
As far as the box office of "Passengers" is concerned, it may not be easy to surpass it.
"Is there any basis for what Director Li said?"
Li Chen smiled and talked eloquently: "Basis? "Avatar" is the key to open Pandora's Box."
“Starting this year, not only will the number of screens increase dramatically, but actors’ salaries may also jump threefold.”
"The box office of 500 million is no longer an unattainable peak. This year, in addition to "Passengers", director Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" is also worth looking forward to."
Fan Zhitong secretly laughed in her heart, Brother Chen and Hua Yi were really torn apart I'm sorry, I just didn't mention "The Great Earthquake"!
“If one out of a hundred people in our country watches the movie, there will be today’s “Passengers”!”
“If there are two out of a hundred people, I’m afraid it will be another one. The first "Avatar"!"
Jingwei knows that after the broadcast of this issue of Chinese movie reports, the ratings will be extremely high and the topic will be overwhelming.
"Director Li, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing for our Chinese films?"
Zhu Yilong has become completely transparent. In this situation, Director Li has to be the absolute protagonist.
Even two front-line players are willing to accompany the last one.
“Of course it’s a good thing. The golden decade of Chinese films is coming.”
“As for actors, for example, Ming Ge, the salary for one film may be as much as what it was before. Department or even a dozen.”
"For the audience, there will be more choices."
"However, I still hope that actors will not be blinded by the pay. If you want to last long, acting is the foundation of your career."
