Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 289 It's even easier to get rich than a pig in the wind.

Old Li makes a surprise appearance on Hong Kong Island.

I returned to Beijing on December 26, just a few days before New Year's Day 2007.

During this period, (slum millionaires) spent their first weekend in China and South Korea.

The United States experienced both the first and second weekends of the pandemic.

Strictly speaking, this means the Golden Globe nomination period has already passed.

However, Warner and Columbia are both investors.

Even large companies can operate in unconventional ways.

Just like the original (The Wolf of Wall Street), it was also released in mid-December.

This does not preclude a nomination for the Golden Globe Awards in January 2014.

This included winning Leonardo DiCaprio the Best Actor award.

Now, slum dwellers in the US have made $2700 million in the first weekend and $3900 million in the second week.

This achievement of over $6600 million is equivalent to more than 5 million RMB.

Ning Hao and Xiao Yang are still flying around the United States, running roadshows to keep up with the promotional schedules of Warner and Columbia.

The Golden Globe nominations have already been announced: Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay.

This series of major awards, unrelated to the cast, are all beckoning to Ning Hao and his team.

Moreover, judging from the trends these days, there's a very high chance that the box office in the US will break $1 million.

The number of people living in slums in mainland China reached 6100 million over the first three days of the weekend, and 4800 million over Saturday and Sunday combined.

It broke the highest box office record for the slum in its original trajectory in just three days.

This is Li Wenyu's book fans, followed by roadshows by Jiang Qinqin, Liu Tao, and others.

Ning Hao and others also made appeals from afar.

The film's depiction of the slums' incredible exploits in the United States has captivated countless moviegoers, including casual viewers.

This period was also an era in which countless Chinese people were curious about the outside world.

The influx of tourists from mainland China has boosted the global tourism industry, making people's wallets a little fuller.

People abroad aren't as curious about South Korea as they used to be, but what about the White Elephant?
Many people in mainland China are also quite curious about White Elephant.

It once bombarded theaters, and now it is occasionally broadcast on television for free.

You can buy DVDs or watch movies on Mtime.

You can see a glimpse of the White Elephant in the movie (Dying to Survive).

There are many people who are curious about White Elephant, one of the largest territories in Asia.

(Slumdog Millionaire), a blockbuster film that vividly depicts the life, society, customs, and other aspects of White Elephant, still holds appeal.

It has considerable appeal to countless people who want to gossip.

With the added hype and hype, it became a hit.

This achievement also completely kicked off the crazy box office frenzy of 06.

After flying to Hong Kong Island to learn from her experience, Jeon Ji-hyun returned to the Peninsula but still didn't rush to start filming.

She also brought a few younger girls to do tours for the slums.

The Peninsula's opening weekend box office of HK$4600 million beat the Hong Kong Bay local team's HK$3100 million.

15th floor of Time Media Building.

Old Li had just finished dealing with a backlog of official business when a pop-up window appeared on Tencent's Penguin account.

This is a video request sent by Da Meiyuan.

Old Li took a sip of tea and answered the call, immediately becoming respectful towards the beautiful woman.

Yuanyuan was wearing a very flashy Superwoman costume, and pointed to another Spider-Woman costume hanging there, saying, "Brother Yu, after John Wick 3 is released."

"I'm not far from becoming a 10 billion yuan box office queen, so maybe I should take on an art film."

"Also aiming for awards? It feels a bit incomplete without a Best Actress trophy."

"The assistant team screened a batch of scripts, and after I reviewed them, I thought one of them was okay."

"Brother Yu, can you help me check this out?"

Old Li suddenly realized.

When it's time for Da Meiyuan to show off, she certainly goes all out.

But she is also very dignified in her daily life.

Summoning him like this? Probably asking Lao Li to make a cameo appearance again.

The first two John Wick movies grossed $5.4 million worldwide, so it wouldn't be difficult for the third movie to gross another $3 million.

However, the chances of reaching $1.5 million in both China and South Korea are extremely high.

The Beekeeper 1 grossed nearly 900 million RMB worldwide, while the Omega box office was only 18 million USD, which is still more than 100 million RMB.

The main contributors to the vote are still the Asian market.

Even if Da Meiyuan can't hold onto her position as a 10 billion yuan box office queen after this Lunar New Year film season.

It also has the box office potential of eight or nine billion RMB, just one step away.

She carried almost the entire show as the leading lady.

If we take into account her extreme career as the second female lead, there's a 50% chance it will break 10 billion.

This is definitely not the level of Huang Xiaoming's portrayal of the second male lead in "The Hangover".

Is this the kind of art film that's vying for Best Actress?
Da Meiyuan's acting skills are still in the 7s, far less advanced than her formulaic performances.

But if Lao Li just lends her some attribute points, she can easily become a Best Actress.

Li Wenyu took another sip of tea and smiled, "Okay, wait a few minutes."

Yuanyuan didn't go to Hong Kong Island; she's been staying home with her parents these days.

The background of the video chat is now inside Da Meiyuan's large office on the 12th floor.

Since the other party is unusually not slacking off and wants to produce more works, Lao Li will definitely support them.

She giggled and nodded, "Then I'll change into the Spider-Man costume."

She was preparing to audition for a role in a black spider costume.

……

26pm on the 5st.

Old Li took a sip of water in the president's office and complained, "Both of the notebooks you chose are fine, but they just feel a little lacking."

Yuanyuan's assistant team is also quite capable.

After a large-scale screening, Da Meiyuan herself took a liking to (Time Thief), a film sent by a screenwriter from Hong Kong.

There's also the spy thriller (The Message), written by Chen Guofu, which he himself wanted to direct.

Both female leads in this film, or the two female leads in "The Message," are contenders for awards.

Of course, if Da Meiyuan wanted to pester Lao Li to make a cameo appearance, that would be a standalone title for Time Thief.

This is why Li Wenyu felt it was slightly lacking.

He went to play a cameo role as an ordinary citizen in Hong Kong Island in the 1960s? He wasn't worried about any issues of incongruity.

Making yourself look older with makeup can solve many problems.

Old Li thought about it and decided to intercept (his beloved) from the group.

He rarely takes over projects from mainland China, but after starring in "Dying to Survive," he donated all the proceeds.

It is a charitable public welfare project.

This kind of hijacking is still possible.

(Dearest) is a film that deeply resonates with the mainland environment and has the potential to offer some small help to many people in reality.

This is about focusing on combating child trafficking and caring for families who have lost their children.

All proceeds will be donated to charity to combat human trafficking, in conjunction with major companies like Weibo and Tencent to launch a nationwide campaign.

This will have significant practical implications.

Speaking of the real-life inspiration for the story, the abducted children are still living with their original families.

This tragedy has not yet occurred.

The two prototypes of that incident occurred in October 2007.

The other one was in March 2008.

If the film is shot and produced quickly, it can be released during the summer of 07.

If the publicity had been strong enough to generate a powerful social impact, and if Lao Li hadn't paid attention to the real-life family, there's a high probability that this tragedy could have been avoided.

The movie (Lost and Love), starring Andy Lau, is set many years ago.

One of the elderly fathers has been traveling around for many years.

There are many reasons behind this, and it's not just one person's problem.

A successful project isn't necessarily about making money.

The original story is about Yanzi winning Best Actress awards at the Hong Kong Film Awards, Golden Horse Awards, Golden Rooster Awards, and Huabiao Awards, among others. Yanzi's character is multi-layered and complex, a bit more profound than Hao's.

This is a reflection of the experiences of the adoptive mother of the child who was the prototype.

Of course, Lao Li's creations are original now, and her unknowing evil has not yet occurred.

Da Meiyuan watched Lao Li create on the spot the whole time, and her reading speed couldn't keep up with Lao Li's typing speed.

After finishing reading, Yuanyuan, dressed in a stylish and extravagant office lady outfit, finished reading.

Taking a deep breath, I feel that the character development and depth of this unsuspecting rural woman are about the same as that of the male lead's wife.

"You're playing Tian Wenjun?"

"If I were to play Lu Xiaojuan, wouldn't I be relegated to a supporting role?"

Hao Ye also won Best Supporting Actress, but her number of nominations is far less than Yanzi's.

But that's only because the actress's performance in the role wasn't as good as Yanzi's, it was a little lacking.

The bigger reason is whether or not there is capital to back them up.

Old Li chuckled, "This is a dual-female lead drama. When we revise it, we'll give Lu Xiaojuan more screen time, and your acting will improve too."

"That would allow me to share the Best Actress award with another nominee."

"The main hope is to use this film to help families who have been abducted or may be abducted in the future, and to have a certain social impact."

"Let this serve as a wake-up call to society to prevent more tragedies from happening."

The original version featured Hao as the mother, and her reaction and performance when she suddenly learned that her child might have been abducted.

You went to the police station, but because it hasn't been 24 hours yet, they can't file a case.

He went on a frantic search for his child.

Then, it becomes 100% certain that the child is missing.

When she learned that her child had been chasing after her as she drove away, she realized that if she had just glanced at the car through the rearview mirror, the tragedy might have been avoided.

To prevent their own son from being abducted.

When will we finally find our child?
Those are all the most brilliant shots showcasing acting skills; if performed well, they'd be worthy of awards.

Now, even the most beautiful woman like her has no shortage of investors supporting her.

This book really has two female leads!

It's just that Da Meiyuan's acting skills are a drag when she's over 70, so she still needs Lao Li's big support.

…………

Time turns.

(Slumdog Millionaire) continues to create a box office frenzy around the world.

Meanwhile, box office revenue in China is also steadily increasing.

However, on the small screen, after its second run, (The Legend of the Blue Sea) achieved a peak viewership rating of 27.63% in mainland China.

This is much more powerful than the highest replay rating of 12% for (Soldiers' Assault).

But compared to (The Voice of China), it's far from impressive.

The popularity of "The Voice of China" has driven the sales of Yunnan Baiyao toothpaste and its market value to grow rapidly.

Until December 30th, Lao Li was sending warmth and care to Tong Liya and Liu Shishi, who were on vacation.

He received a text message from Little Ma.

"Mr. Li, we know you've launched a new self-directed and self-acted public welfare project, and we at Tencent have also gathered some relevant information."

"I discovered that there's a pitiful guy named Lao Guo in Shandong Province, and his story is worth adapting."

"I plan to apply for a 5000 million yuan anti-trafficking fund to provide assistance to the public security system and victims who are searching for their families in real life."

"How about Weibo took the lead in 07, and Tencent followed suit?"

After reading a few text messages, Lao Li remained silent for more than ten seconds before lighting a cigarette and sighing, "Mr. Ma, who likes to copy homework, is really beyond words."

"But this time, he copied a very good thing."

Little Ma's cunning nature is known throughout the internet.

It's still quite novel to copy it like this.

As for the many victims of childlessness across the country, what about Lao Guo's case in Shandong Province?

The other party has been searching for the child alone, riding a motorcycle all over the country for seven or eight years.

A 5000 million yuan anti-trafficking charity fund is acceptable.

Tong Liya, who was giving the crew a break, asked curiously, "When the news of you directing and starring in this film got out, it caused quite a stir in the industry."

"Upon learning that it was a similar public welfare project (Dying to Survive), many people inside and outside the group wanted to jump on the bandwagon."

"And senior brother, you've completely distorted the values ​​of veteran actresses like Rosamund Kwan and Joey Wong."

Li Wenyu, “??”

Liu Shishi chuckled and added, "Yeah, Sister Lin said she used to think this was a brothel. You're almost the richest Chinese person now."

"11th on the Forbes World's Billionaires List, and that list will be updated in 2007."

"I estimate that they will really break into the top ten globally in 07."

"At least (Slumdog Million) is about to break $1 million in box office revenue in the United States, and it has surged globally. If Time goes public, it will be another major boost in market value."

"You're already in this state and you're still putting on this show?"

Veteran actresses like Rosamund Kwan felt that Li Ka-shing had elevated the overall status of the Chinese entertainment industry by dozens of levels.

They're quickly catching up on the US entertainment industry.

After all, there are precedents of people running away to become presidents in the United States.

This is something that people in Hong Kong and Taiwan never even dared to dream of, and everyone is getting rich so quickly.

Old Li put away his phone, intending to prepare a New Year's Day feast to reward his family.

Xiao Tong chased after him, "Should I make a cameo appearance and do charity work with you and Sister Yuanyuan? Or should we also donate to the anti-trafficking charity fund?"

Old Li smiled and shook his head, "You don't need to do anything for now."

Some topics are too heavy to be suitable for an all-star lineup.

Furthermore, Xiao Tong, Shi Shi, and others don't need to be too enthusiastic about such matters.

He will make all the necessary arrangements.

In late October of this year, Fat Bing was consulted about whether to choose to be exposed and appear on the rich list or to remain in seclusion.

Old Li started asking people around him for 1000 million each to speculate on the Hang Seng Index.

Two months have passed, how are the results?
原轨迹2006年10月到07年10月，12个月涨13000点。

The overall comparison shows a slight improvement.

Time Group is also listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

With a leverage of 20 times, each of them has already made a profit of over 200% on their 10 million yuan investment.

This is like taking off on the great east wind of a nation's explosive growth.

It's easier than being a pig in the wind.

Old Li just didn't say it publicly.

Of course, Weibo's investment department also reinvested 5 million yuan, with a 20x leverage, and now it has made a profit of more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in two months.

From IDG's Lao Xiong and Samsung's Lee Jae-yong to Zhou Hongyi and others.

They were all dumbfounded and spitting blood.

They are still asking Lao Li to increase investment or increase leverage.

From China Mobile and China Unicom to ICBC, oil, and petrochemicals, the global industry has achieved stable development.

Then there are groups like China Life, Ping An, and Sino-Ocean Group.

This will have a stable impact on the Hong Kong stock market.

It was only after Lao Li placed his bet that they fully realized the terrifying power of a certain trend.

If this financial report is released, it will likely boost Weibo's market value significantly.

This includes aiming to reach 100 billion.

But Lao Li knew all of this was just hype; Tencent was going to break 100 billion, and Alibaba was aiming for 200 billion.

Then, starting in 08, they all fell below their issue price.

When the great natural disaster of 08 arrives, the Time System will make significant moves.

He has been developing big AI for several months, and when it is ready, he will donate a large number of more mature and advanced drones and robot dogs.

Those who make money by trading Hang Seng Index should donate it.

However, in 07, he prepared for the entire network of interactive anti-trafficking efforts, including Weibo, Tencent, and 360 Group, as well as an anti-trafficking charity fund, for people like Fat Bing and Xiao Tong.

The day after tomorrow is New Year's Day, and it's not just Xiao Tong and others who will have a holiday.

The filming of "Gone Girl" is almost finished, and the cast will also have a few days off, which will not delay their efforts to be released during the Lunar New Year season.

Old Li wanted to personally cook enough delicious food, including medicinal cuisine.
