After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 469

Mercedes-Benz Arena is the largest indoor concert venue in the country, with 1.8 seats.

It's comparable to the Staples Center in Los Angeles!

It was a bitterly cold winter, with freezing weather. Outdoor stadiums were not suitable for holding concerts, and it was a hard time for the singers, staff, and audience.

Li Mingyang chose the Mercedes-Benz Cultural Center to be responsible to everyone.

Each concert ticket is limited to one seat, and all seats are available!
Whether you grab tickets randomly or online, everyone’s first reaction is to choose their seats for the movie.

Li Mingyang posted on Weibo at the appropriate time, saying that it is indeed the same as choosing seats in a movie, and all seats can be selected except for the VIP boxes.

Under normal circumstances, concert ticket prices are not uniform. The closer to the stage, the more expensive the price.

The concert ticket price of 599 is not cheap, but if you can grab a seat in the front field, it’s a huge profit!

At one time, countless scalpers entered the market.

At 10 o'clock that evening, Maoyan and Nuomi jointly announced that the sales of Li Mingyang's concert tickets exceeded 50,000!
In less than two days, sales exceeded 50,000.

This sales performance and sales speed not only shocked many popular singers.

It also silenced those people online who questioned why Li Mingyang could not hold a concert.

Sales are hot!
You have to drive even if you are in a wheelchair!
The internet is full of discussions about concert ticket grabbing.

"Mr. Cao, Li Mingyang's popularity is too explosive! In the past three days, our advertising revenue has tripled! If he is banned, his popularity will drop significantly!"

"It seems that the flower bunch wants us to clean the net ourselves..."

"Self-castration, isn't that just cutting yourself off?"

“But if we don’t do that, we have to clean the internet!”

"Mr. Cao, Mr. Cao?"

Accountant Cao raised his head and glanced at the senior executives present with an upset look.

Sina has suffered heavy losses on all its investments this year, and Tudou is not the one that suffered the most.

The only thing to be thankful for is that Sina Weibo has developed well, and stars and celebrities prefer Sina Weibo rather than Penguin Weibo.

Self-castration is really like cutting yourself with a knife!
He won't do that because it would be too detrimental to Sina's development.

But the company has a problem with cash outflow...which is also a headache.

Accountant Cao knocked on the table for a while before he said, "Don't do anything."

As soon as these words were spoken, the others suddenly became excited and the meeting room was in chaos.

"What Weibo needs now is freedom. If they wait for official documents, I don't believe they are of one mind."

After Accountant Cao finished speaking, he knocked on the table and moved on to the next topic, not allowing anyone else to refute him.

12 month 10 day.

At seven in the morning, the race for seats began.

In just one minute, the seats on the second floor and in the inner field were sold out.

The tickets in the outer circle were not popular and slowly turned red.

There was a problem with grabbing a seat.

But this is expected.

Maoyan and Nuomi opened new sessions at the right time.

Users who have concert tickets can grab seats for other time periods online.

Starting from the 14th to the 28th, there will be 15 consecutive concerts, all held at the Mercedes-Benz Cultural Center.

Although this is very different from the national concert mentioned at the beginning.

But the temptation of the inner field still made many fans take action.

Especially since both Maoyan and Nuomi have set a limit on ticket purchases, 15 for Maoyan and 12 for Nuomi, corresponding to 15 seats for 27 concerts.

The enthusiasm among fans and scalpers to grab seats is unprecedentedly high.

In just one morning, more than half of the second floor and backstage tickets for the 15 concerts were sold out.

All the fans got good seats.

Bouquet entertainment.

"Is 15 shows too many? The attendance rate is a bit low, and the sales momentum of concert tickets has been interrupted," said Wu Zhikui.

"Take it slow. I need more heat. After all, I'm not a professional singer."

Li Mingyang held the crutches and stood up from the chair.

With the help of Rukawa Kaede's experience card, his strong arm strength allows him to walk easily with crutches, but he just can't get used to it.

"If you are in good health, you will recover quickly. You can even walk with crutches now."

"It still hurts, but I just have to endure it." Li Mingyang said, leaning on a crutch.

The reason for his quick recovery is that he has spent a lot of money on the box office. The Rukawa Kaede experience card and the Sweet Mask experience card have made him recover surprisingly quickly.

Originally he wanted to use the serious state + Rukawa Kaede experience card, but the effect was not very good and it was very painful.

With dual experience cards, it doesn’t hurt that much.

Sweetheart Mask Experience Card, which comes with the specialties of singing and dancing, also seems to increase physical strength.

After all, singing and dancing is also a physical activity...

Da da da……

There was a sound of high heels hitting the ground outside the door, as if someone was running. The next moment, the door was pushed open, and Zhong Xiaoyu said with a happy face, "Boss, Weathering With You has passed the review."

“Isn’t my Weibo account banned?”

"No."

“I finally made it through.”

Li Mingyang took a deep breath. Weathering With You finally passed the review and his Weibo account was not banned.

But the problem remains.

After all, Hong Kong is back.

Stability is most important.

Li Mingyang walked around the room, getting used to the crutches while listening to other people's reports.

When he learned that Yu Dong came to the Bouquet Hotel and had a secret chat with Wang Changtian.

He knew that Wang Changtian and Yu Dong were going to take action against the Flowers of War.

In fact, he was quite curious about how the two would make The Flowers of War, after all, the film had already been approved and scheduled for release.

But right now, he has more important things to do.

Write a song!

Save up the bullets!
Little Apple had already written it.

There are four new songs in the original film Your Name: Dream Lantern, No Big Deal, Past Life, and Spark.

Jingtian has been practicing four songs recently.

My mother is sewing on a sewing machine, and the Internet is showing filial piety by singing "In My Singing" by Karen Mok.

It’s been almost 12 years, and there are no good Chinese pop songs anymore.

There is no way to copy it.

Bubbles is a nice song, but it's not suitable for men.

Li Mingyang bit his pen, looked at the computer, and wondered what other good songs there were.

After thinking for hours, I didn't come up with...

"Should we call the fairy to get some inspiration?"

Li Mingyang has a lot of songs in his mind, but they are all very vague...

Need inspiration.

The celestial beings undoubtedly gave him the most inspiration.

Without her, he wouldn't have done "Your Name"...

……

"What are you doing?"

"Filming." Liu Yifei said lightly.

"Oh, the Bronze Sparrow Tower!"

"Asking knowingly."

"Do you have time recently to be a guest at my concert?"

Liu Yifei covered her mouth and laughed, "The attendance rate is not good, you thought of me!"

"It's the same with or without you."

Liu Yifei snorted, "You talk to Jing Tian like that too? Can't you say something nice? You cut off my fans before, but I never said anything to you..."

"That was a long time ago."

"Okay, that's all in the past. I have something to ask you. Can you please ask your fans to stop making up rumors about me being a female Lu Bu? It's too ugly. If you keep doing this, I'll get angry."

The truth is, there's nothing to be angry about.

"If I could control myself, I wouldn't have broken my legs and I would still be able to hold a concert!"

"..."

"Are you coming?"

"Can you help?"

Neither of them was willing to give in, and the argument went on for more than half an hour.

Finally, Liu Yifei compromised and said she would help, but she needed to communicate with the crew about the schedule.

"If you find it troublesome, ask Mr. Wang to ask for leave for me... It's not easy for me to ask for leave."

Li Mingyang thought it was reasonable, so he hung up the phone and went to find Wang Changtian.

Wang Changtian was silent for a long time before he said, "The attendance rate of the first concert was not good. There are many ways to solve it...but I don't accept using Liu Yifei and her fans to solve it."

"Your fans and her fans don't get along. I feel like if they meet offline, they'll probably fight."

"No way……"

"I don't know which bastard came up with this idea of ​​a female Lu Bu. All media outlets have started using the term 'female Lu Bu' to smear her. Do you think her fans can stand this? They're definitely going to fight!"

"Well... I didn't expect it to get so serious."

Wang Changtian shook his head after hearing this.

I couldn't find the inspiration for the song.

I don’t want to look for Liu Yifei and Li Mingyang anymore.

Just about to go back.

Wang Changtian stopped him, then called Zhang Zhao, and the three of them held a small meeting.

The Beijing and Hong Kong circles launched a comprehensive crackdown on Li Mingyang.

Originally, due to the restriction on the import of Hong Kong films, the Beijing and Hong Kong film circles were fighting fiercely. With the release date of Weathering With You set, both sides stopped fighting and united to face the outside world.

Several water army companies with close cooperation informed Wang Changtian that if the price did not double, they would follow suit and slander the Son of Weather.

A shell advertising company prepared 200 million yuan to attack him.

Moreover, the short essays and black notices are all handled by professionals, and the water army companies only need to bombard them.

"I really want to thank these people. They really think highly of me..." Li Mingyang said with a smile.

"The situation is basically clear now. Their attitude is very clear, which is to kick you out of the domestic film industry and destroy your box office appeal," said Zhang Zhao.

Li Mingyang knew this very well.

His ability to efficiently produce blockbuster films has caused great damage to the traditional domestic film industry.

As a result, other people can't play at all!

The money is actually spent on making the movie, on special effects, set design, costumes, props, etc.

Just like The Wandering Earth.

It makes it so that others can’t brag…it’s a lie!

Moreover, Li Mingyang has discovered that there are people in the country who understand the film industry, and many people know how he operates, but they still want to deal with him.

I am afraid that he will implement this in my country.

Raise industry standards...The most important thing is not to wash the rice!

His big scenes are all CG special effects.

No actual shots.

What China likes most is real-life shooting, using a large number of extras who are paid dozens of dollars to launder money.

Tens of thousands of people at any time.

It’s not even enough for 208 a day’s salary.

The witch's crushing defeat in the mainland finally gave these people an opportunity.

I have to kill him...

Two hundred million is nothing.

Li Mingyang felt that these bastards were going to pirate high-definition copies.

Weathering With You is not a 3D movie, it is a 2D to 3D movie.

As long as you are shameless enough, it is easy to produce high-definition pirated copies.

High-definition piracy remains a hurdle that domestic films cannot overcome.

Li Mingyang really didn't expect that after three years, he would still have to face the huge problem of high-definition piracy again.

Of course, the two bigger mountains are the Beijing circle and the Hong Kong circle.

These three mountains are now under the charge of Wang Changtian and Zhang Zhao.

All he needs to do now is to recover quickly and hope that nothing goes wrong with the concert.

The three of them chatted for more than an hour, and Yu Dong suddenly came running over.

He brought a new piece of news that there was a problem with the Academy Awards.

……

The Beijing and Hong Kong circles joined forces to encircle and suppress him. Besides the fact that he was not sociable, there was a more important reason.

That's the Academy Awards!

Cultural highland!

The functions of the three golds are the same, they are all keys.

This is the first time in history that a mainland director has won the Best Director Award at the Academy Awards, which is of great significance.

If Li Mingyang wins the Best Director Award at the Academy Awards, no one will be able to stop him.

It is almost certain that he will be the fourth largest director in the country.

If he can use the box office to beat up Lao Yizi, Kaizi Ge and Feng Kuzi, he will dare to hype himself up as the number one director in the country.

The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front of them, and the waves in front of them die on the beach!
Li Mingyang only recently realized how wise it was for him to grab the Academy Award.

Because the Academy Awards are the most promising.

The Golden Rooster and the Golden Horse are decided by a minority and are ironclad.

The Academy Awards follow the same rules as the Oscars, with group voting and one person one vote, which leads to internal intrigue and ulterior motives.

Li Mingyang originally thought he had no chance... Jiang Wen won the Best Director award.

Who knew that he just publicly called for the lifting of restrictions on imported Hong Kong films, and his fans would boycott Hong Kong films if he didn't receive awards.

Just click on the big director who blew up the Hong Kong circle!
Du Qifeng!
Du Qifeng directly blasted the Academy Awards, saying that a group of people who only think about money have betrayed all of us!

He also blasted Li Mingyang for having his mind full of the three golds, which was a waste.

Du Qifeng has a long-standing grudge against the Academy Awards.

"Their judging over the past decade or so hasn't been very good. I don't want them to be distributing pork, but they are distributing pork all the time."

"Awards are not a very fair thing."

"Some actors won the Best Actor award but still acted terribly."

"There is nothing for me to learn by going to the award ceremony. What do you think I should learn?"

"I would rather die than go to the Academy Awards."

The person who said these words in front of the media was Du Qifeng, the director with the most nominations in the history of the Hong Kong Film Awards.

Since 2000, this director, known for his hot temper, has not attended this annual event of the Hong Kong film industry.

The Academy Awards has always wanted to repair the relationship between the two parties, but this great director was secretive at first when faced with the invitation, and later he simply stopped acting. Every time someone asked about it, he would speak crazily and without restraint.

He even went to some small award ceremonies to show his face instead of going to the Academy Awards.

He also said, "To judge whether an award is good or not, just look at whether I go there or not."

The credibility of the Academy Awards was slapped by this big shot...

But he has won three Academy Awards for Best Director...he can only be the one to be drawn for the Academy Awards.

In addition to blasting the Academy Awards, he also likes to blast the mainland's film censorship system, which is extremely unpopular in the mainland.

Even his own people dislike him. Xiao Huo, who could no longer tolerate it, directly criticized Du Qifeng without naming him, saying that he should not be bad-mouthing Hong Kong.

In the past, Du Qifeng's remarks would have been ignored.

After all, the Academy Awards are the private domain of the bigwigs in the Hong Kong circle. If you want to survive in the Hong Kong circle, you can't offend them.

However, this time it was different. Yu Dong got the news from the Hong Kong circle.

Du Qifeng directly scolded the Hong Kong entertainment industry for selling awards for fame and fortune, and for disfiguring the faces of the Hong Kong entertainment industry, which caused an uproar over there.

Emperor Entertainment Group has been dealing with this matter recently and trying to get all the bigwigs to reach a consensus.

But it never succeeded.

Just when Li Mingyang, Wang Changtian, Zhang Zhao and Yu Dong were in the conference room discussing the unrest in the Hong Kong circle.

On the other hand, Liu Dehua was attending an event in Shanghai and accepting interviews from the on-site media.

Some media asked Liu Dehua what film plans he had next.

Liu Dehua held a dozen microphones and said, "I don't have any new movie plans yet, but I have a small idea, which is to sing a few more songs with Director Li Mingyang."

"I don't have any work arrangements on the 14th, so please consider me."

The media at the scene were stunned.

Li Mingyang is now being hated by everyone and dares not show up in public.

The superstar Liu Dehua, who is both virtuous and talented, actually took the initiative to seek cooperation.

This is undoubtedly the greatest support!
When Li Mingyang learned that Liu Dehua was in front of the national media, he took the initiative to request to be the guest singer.

All stunned!

Everyone carries a fancy sedan chair, but few people in the world help in times of need.

Especially when he was at the height of his notoriety.

Liu Dehua’s support is timely!

Li Mingyang thought for a while and prepared to post a Weibo, tagging Liu Dehua.

After finishing writing, I realized that Liu Dehua does not have a Weibo account...

Liu Dehua's traffic is too crazy, it's easy to be backfired...

He himself is a traffic source and does not need any exposure on Weibo.

……

Less than fifteen minutes had passed since Li Mingyang posted on Weibo announcing that Liu Dehua would be the guest singer at the concert on the 14th.

The first day performance, which originally had an attendance rate of less than one-third, became a huge hit.

Liu Dehua does not have a Weibo account or any other social media accounts.

Andy Lau's fans who didn't have the chance to meet Andy Lau went to his Weibo and left messages asking if he could let Andy Lau sing for a few more days.

This request is impossible.

Li Mingyang wants to too!

But Liu Dehua didn't charge any money and was just helping out, so he couldn't force anyone to sing.

After all, I am not young anymore. I didn’t prepare in advance. It’s okay to sing a few songs, but if I sing more, I will let down my fans…

All things are difficult at the beginning, and Liu Dehua made a good start.

It suddenly became extremely easy for Li Mingyang to invite singers.

Even Jacky Cheung, who we have no relationship with, was invited...

He proposed to lift restrictions on imported Hong Kong films, which attracted many bigwigs!
Li Mingyang is the first person in mainland China to openly bring up this matter despite the world's condemnation.

Many people hope that through him, the restrictions on imported Hong Kong films can be lifted.

“I feel like this is a great opportunity!”

Li Mingyang returned to his room, snapped his fingers, lay on the bed, and with a thought, the system popped up.

"Everything is ready, we just need the east wind to draw the prize."

The box office of "Witch" in mainland China + the box office in South Korea + the box office in other regions and the adaptation rights fees totaled more than 260 million.

Li Mingyang had been holding it in for so long that he even broke his leg but didn't draw a lottery, just because he wanted to win a big one.

System rewards are related to the content of the movie.

The quality of the reward depends on the popularity of the movie.

The Witch has a good reputation in the country, but poor box office, and many pirated viewers complained for him...

In Korea, the film was a huge hit. After 480 days of release, it had a cumulative audience of 361 million and a total box office of 7 billion won, ranking th in Korea that year!

Overseas high-end luxury brands have taken the initiative to approach Shishi to discuss cooperation.

"Witch! Give me some strength!"

Li Mingyang took a deep breath and clicked on the lottery!
