Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 139: Breaking 1 million in the first week! (4/)
“Ready~
I will pose on the mountaintop with my flags, my medals, and my brothers; I will be better than all the fancy things you have ever seen or heard put together..."

An Internet company’s annual meeting...

Shen Yan performs on the stage.

It must be a live performance, and they paid money - 200 million!
The company is called NetDragon, headquartered in Fuzhou...

Shen Yan planned to make some money first, and then go to Shenzhen to film "The Beauty Inside"...

It's good that a mainland internet company held its annual meeting, but instead of bringing in the Japanese actress Ai Wei... they invited Shen Yan to sing...

It's so normal that it's hard to believe that this is a company that makes games - "Magic World" and "Conquer".

Later, he also created the 91 wireless smartphone service platform and sold it to Baidu for US$19 billion!
Regarding the packaging of Japanese porn actresses, Zhou Hongyi did it at the 360 annual meeting - he invited Rola Takizawa...

During the peak period of Vancl’s annual meeting, they even invited Mr. Cang...

The passionate embrace between Mr. Lei and Mr. Cang has become an eternal classic
In comparison, inviting Shen Yan is really a very common routine.

And it’s not worth it…

After all, Internet companies focus on the economy of eyeballs, and inviting Shen Yan is definitely not as prestigious as inviting Teacher Cang!
Moreover, Ms. Cang has 300 million followers on Weibo, and any Weibo post she makes will receive thousands of likes and comments...

So, Shen Yan sang five songs in a row, including "Qilin", "My Sky", "Proud Youth", "Mercury Notes" and "Let Me Stay By Your Side"...

After singing the song, I took a photo with a group of people...

……

After the commercial performance, Shen Yan got in the car and headed directly to Shenzhen...

Chen Xu was a little excited, and looked ahead: "We've already received an invitation to the annual meeting of the "Magic Domain" company. Do you think we can also get an invitation to the Tengxun annual meeting?"

"I don't think it's likely... After all, I only bought 3000 million worth of stocks, which is far from enough. If it was 3 million, maybe I could get an invitation!"

"What?"

"Annual party invitation!"

“…I meant to invite us to perform.”

"I don't know about that," Shen Yan shook his head. "You should ask Sister Yang... She's in charge of my business connections and stuff now!"

Ji Xiang is now slowly transitioning into a film and television producer. Although he is also in charge of Shen Yan, he is a little overwhelmed. So he simply poached Yang Siwei and asked her to take charge of Shen Yan's business affairs...

"Forget it then," Chen Xu shook his head. "Sister Yang starts her new job with three major changes, and I don't want to be the first one!"

"Don't say that. Sister Yang is a very nice person." After a pause, Shen Yan added, "Our commercial performance price has increased to 200 million...wasn't it her suggestion? She said that at the end of the year, those who can afford 160 million won't mind paying an extra 40!"

"She's very capable..." Chen Xu said with a bitter face, "but my salary hasn't increased."

"It's okay, I'll give you a big red envelope as your year-end bonus!"

“…When do you think our company will hold its annual meeting?”

Shen Yan was speechless: "There are less than 20 people in our company..."

"What if it grows bigger one day?"

“…Who do you want to invite?”

"Fan Bingbing!"

"Damn, you like Fan Bingbing?"

"You don't like it?"

“Who doesn’t like Fan Bingbing!”

As he was talking nonsense, Shen Yan took out his phone. It was a message from Jing Tian: "Brother Yan, our movie has made over 100 million!"

Shen Yan was surprised and immediately asked Chen Xu, "Xiao Chen, has Back to 20 broken the million mark?"

"Breaking through 100 million? Let me ask!"

Chen Xu immediately took out his phone...

Shen Yan replied to Jing Tian: "Not bad, huh...haha..." Jing Tian immediately replied: "Thank you, Brother Yan...I heard from Wanda that our movie has the highest attendance rate and the highest number of screenings. Maybe it can make 300 million at the box office!"

"I hope so... I'm in the car!"

"Then I won't bother Brother Yan anymore..."

After a while, Chen Xu said with a look of surprise, "The box office exceeded 5500 million in three days over the weekend, and exceeded million in the first seven days!"

Shen Yan then asked, "What about 'The Laughing Man' and 'The Orphan of Zhao'?"

"'The Laughing Man' grossed 5620 million yuan in its first three days, and 'The Orphan of Zhao' grossed 4810 million yuan in two days!"

"... Is 'The Orphan of Zhao' so low?"

"It's only two days..."

"I read the reviews, and the reputation isn't very good!"

"The Orphan of Zhao"...half a classic - literally, the first half is okay, but the second half is a complete failure!
Because in the second half, screenwriters Gao Xuan and Ren Baoru had different opinions with director Chen Da, and the two withdrew from the creation of "The Orphan of Zhao".

This resulted in the whole play having an anticlimactic beginning but a whimpering ending. It was tightly held until the very end, but then it all fell apart lightly...

Chen Xu said something fair: "If I had to choose, I wouldn't watch 'The Orphan of Zhao'... I'd rather watch 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes'!"

"…Why? It's directed by Zhu Yanping, the same director of '刺凌'! It's gotta be a bad movie!"

"During the Lunar New Year holiday, I'm definitely going to watch a comedy. 'The Laughing Rivers and Lakes' stars Zhao Benshan, Xiao Shenyang, Wu Zongxian, and Eric Tsang... No matter if it's bad or not, at least it makes me laugh!" After a pause, Chen Xu added, "Unfortunately, except for Bona Cinemas, most theaters have given 'The Orphan of Zhao' over 30% of their screenings... Brother Chen Kai is really influential!"

"Not only Brother Chen Kai, Ge You is also very proud!"

……

Currently, four films are available, with "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 5" nearing its end of theaters, with less than % of the screenings scheduled...

"The Laughing Man" has the lowest screening schedule, except that Bona gave it 35% of the screening schedule - after all, it was produced and distributed by Bona!

Nationwide, the screening schedule for "The Orphan of Zhao" is higher than that for "20 Again," but Wanda gave "20 Again" 35% of the screening schedule...

After all, Wanda co-produced and co-distributed...

At this time, China Film Theater Chain occupied almost half of the national cinema chains, and they supported Brother Chen Kai!
Director Chen is one of us!

According to Shen Yan's prediction, "Back to 20" should be able to exceed million.

After all, "Let the Bullets Fly" will only be released on the 16th...

There are still ten days left!
Originally, these ten days were reserved for "The Orphan of Zhao" and "The Laughing Man"...

I didn’t expect that “Back to 20” got a bargain…

Then, many experts and professors on the Internet jumped out and said things like, "Some movies have no artistic value at all. I think this is a disservice to domestic audiences..." and "Movies that are too entertaining are meaningless..."

By the way, there are also many posts criticizing Jing Tian for his powerful background...some even attack the actor himself!

Similar to "Jing Tian's face has a magical power that makes you act out a play," and "Jing Tian's expression when acting always carries a hint of joy: 'Haha, I'm the protagonist again.'"…

It’s fine, Jing Tian doesn’t care...

Instead, it increased the off-site popularity of "Back to 20" a lot!
As for Shen Yan, he just forwarded the news that "Back to 20" had surpassed million yuan in its first week, and posted the MV for "Let Me Stay By Your Side"...

Then I just focused on filming...

After all, the moment the script of "20 Again" was handed over, it was no longer his movie!
Chen Zhengdao was quite excited...

He was only a minor celebrity in Taiwan before, but he hadn't entered the mainstream...

In the Taiwanese film industry, the mainstream circle is composed of Hou Hsiao-hsien, Edward Yang, and Tsai Ming-liang...

The rest are non-mainstream!

Rising star Wei Desheng, including Chen Yiwen, Zhong Menghong, Dai Liren, and later Huang Xinyao all had close ties with Edward Yang;
Hou Hsiao-hsien is even more impressive. His son-in-law is the president of the Taiwan Film Culture Association and controls the Taiwan Film Industry Development Fund...

Chen Zhengdao has nothing to do with them. He was valued by Huang Jiangfeng, who invested in his first film, "House Change," and recommended his short film "Wild" to the Venice Film Festival...
