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

Chapter 445 Special Session (44)

Xiaoming really went to great lengths to promote "American Dreams in China"...

His good relationships also paid off – he completed eight interviews, two variety show recordings, and a magazine photoshoot in one day.

As for Deng Chao and Tong Dawei... they followed the publicity team's instructions completely, starting their promotional activities on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, mainly focusing on magazine interviews...

Promotional material for variety shows.

Shen Yan has a regular spot on "Sound of My Dream," so it's not easy for her to participate in variety shows on other TV stations.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, during the recording of "Sound of My Dream," Shen Yan sang "Rock 'n' Roll on the New Long March" and "The Girl in the Flower Shop"...

Oh, this episode of "Sound of My Dream" is a special episode where everyone can freely sing songs from the "Golden Melody Chart".

The "Golden Hits Chart" is just a selection of songs compiled by the show's producers...

While Shen Yan was singing, scenes from the movie "American Dreams in China" flashed in the background...

They gave it plenty of publicity.

Yu Quan also sang "The Outside World" and "The Internationale"...

Uh, they're all background music from the movie "American Dreams in China".

This episode was practically a special feature on "American Dreams in China"...

In the second half, Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming, and Tong Dawei came on stage and sang "The Story of Time" together, and each of them also sang a song...

Xiao Ming's song "Nao Tai Tao" is actually "One World One Dream"...

Shen Yan also sang Xiaoming's only breakout song, "Anything Is Possible".

Yu Quan and Deng Chao performed "Cold to the End" and "Running" together...

As for Tong Dawei, he sang "I'm Fine" with Lin Junjie – the theme song of "Struggle"!
Wow, it feels like 07!
Back then, the first half of the year featured "Soldiers' Sortie," and the second half featured "Struggle"...

These two dramas have also launched the most new talents!

"I loved 'Struggle' back then... I watched it several times."

"So who is your favorite?"

"Mi Lai!" Shen Yan chuckled. "Who wouldn't want a rich and beautiful woman throwing herself at them..."

Do you know Wang Luodan?

"I've run into him at events..."

It's said that ever since Bai Baihe appeared, Wang Luodan seems to have had his luck stolen...

My acting career seems to have been blocked; I can't do anything!
She's acted in a bunch of films, often alongside big names. In *To the Fore*, she starred alongside Eddie Peng, Shawn Dou, and Choi Siwon; in *The Dead End*, she worked with Deng Chao, Duan Yihong, and Guo Tao; and later she starred in *Gone Girl*, *My War*, *The Immortal*, and *Gone with the Light*…

They all failed to make a name for themselves, to varying degrees!

Later, he made a decision to leave the entertainment industry.

Very popular!

Since Chu Yuxun's salary was exposed, who will still pay for a celebrity's capricious behavior?

If you want to leave the industry, then leave...

This isn't the way to gain attention...

By the way, Bai Baihe... "Monster Hunt" should be approved soon, let's find a way to get it over here!
Raman Hui returned to China from DreamWorks; he chose to return to Hong Kong…

Or... should I make it myself?

It just so happens that Shen Yan doesn't like Huba's design...

……

After the recording ended, Shen Yan approached the production team to express his gratitude.

"Thank you to the production team..."

"The audience loves watching...and I feel that Tong Dawei's rendition of 'I'm Fine' was the most exciting part..." Wu Tong smiled happily, as if she had discovered the secret to variety shows...

"The most explosive moment?" "Yes, the audience is all nostalgic..." At this point, Wu Tong sighed, "What a pity!"

"What's the pity?"

"It's a pity we didn't invite the cast and crew of 'Struggle' to come over... If everyone sang 'I'm Fine' together, the effect would be absolutely amazing!"

Shen Li interjected: "Director... Wen Zhang starred in 'Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons,' which is the biggest rival of 'American Dreams in China.' He can't possibly come."

"...We don't necessarily have to invite everyone...I mean, this segment would be great for ending the show...it's full of nostalgia!"

Shen Yan couldn't help but say, "Director, let me remind you... there might be conflicts between the actors in many production crews!"

"...It's alright, I'll inquire about it beforehand!"

really?
I do not believe!
If you had inquired beforehand about the reunion of the 06 Super Girls... you wouldn't have been unaware that they were completely unfamiliar with each other, would you?
What's the point of this reunion? The most awkward thing is that after the show ended, the main guest, Shang Wenjie, and Xu Fei, who was once somewhat famous, had a long argument offstage.

The nostalgia trip went too far.

……

After the show's recording ended, Shen Yan left Hangzhou with the "American Dreams in China" crew and went directly to Shanghai...

Oh, Nini is also in this episode.

She just doesn't want to sing...

She said she wasn't a good singer...

All I can say is that this person has no variety show appeal. Look at Meng Ziyi, he's tone-deaf and off-key the whole time, but that doesn't stop him from singing loudly!
Now, singing, or rather, her captivating voice, has even become her trademark...

Shen Yan whispered a few words to Nini, then said, "We're not going to the cinema for promotional events tomorrow, we'll mainly be doing interviews... By the way, Sister Yang, how much box office did we make today... yesterday, Valentine's Day?"

"140 million... Adding to the 1.17 million from the day before yesterday, the total box office has exceeded 660 million. However, unexpectedly, it should still gross over 100 million more tomorrow and the day after..."

"Wow, that's 9 million in revenue in just 7 days..."

Huang Xiaoming couldn't help but interject, "Then it will soon exceed one billion?"

Yang Siwei calculated for a moment: "It should be around the tenth day after the release."

"It directly brought forward the record of 'Lost in Thailand' reaching 1 billion yuan in 20 days by half!"

"How much will the total box office be?"

"It's hard to say..." Shen Yan considered for a moment, "I estimate it will be around 16 billion..."

"How come it's only 16 billion?"

"Following up are 'Jack Reacher,' 'The Hobbit,' and 'Les Misérables'... basically one Hollywood blockbuster a week..." After a pause, Shen Yan added, "16 is already very high. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be able to enter the top three of the year."

"Huh? 16 billion is only in the top three?" Deng Chao couldn't help but think for a moment, "Can 'The Martian' even be released this year?"

"What a joke... We haven't even filmed it yet... Even if we do film it, post-production will take 18 months, which is enough time for it to be released next year..." Shen Yan explained, "...Our company also has a pure comedy called 'Goodbye Mr. Loser'... That movie has a very high probability of surpassing 'American Dreams in China' at the box office... And don't forget 'Fame and Fortune'!"

"Making a Name for Oneself?"

"That's just a skit!"

"Maybe the audience will like it?"

Yang Siwei interrupted them: "I thought you were talking about Director Feng's 'Personal Tailor'... They're all our own movies."

“Director Feng disdains connecting with the audience; he’s busy realizing his own value now… As for Wang Shuo… he’s long outdated!” After saying that, Shen Yan realized something and added, “Oh, what I’m saying is only for our private discussion; you’re not allowed to spread it around!”

Xiao Ming asked Nini, "Nini, does Director Yi have a new film?"

Nini shook her head: "I don't know... I haven't contacted him in ages..."

Tong Dawei then asked, "Has he remarried?"

"...I don't know, I didn't ask him..."

Shen Yan smiled and said, "It's not easy to ask about these things... unless he tells us on his own initiative!"
