Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 295 A Ruthless and Inhumane Business War

Time turns.

Driven by numerous large-scale promotional campaigns, the date arrived at January 26.

This winter break, a barrage of blockbuster films has been launched, featuring stars like Fat Bing, Dong Xuan, and even a cameo appearance by Ah Xin.

And Megan Fox.

Then Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, and others launched surprise roadshows across various regions.

It's a focus of attention both inside and outside the industry.

Industry insiders are curious about what new achievements Time Blockbuster can make under this offensive.

Outside the circle, countless book fans, movie fans, and even casual observers were filled with curiosity and excitement.

Time Entertainment has been producing movies for several years now, and they haven't made many bad ones.

This is a very rare thing.

Li Wenyu is also keeping a close eye on the situation.

At around 2 a.m. on the 29th, after the first weekend, Lao Li received the statistical report.

He lit a cigarette and remarked, "The figure for the mainland over three days is likely to exceed 100 million; the 24 hours from yesterday, the weekend, are not entirely accurate."

Dong Xuan, who was also waiting for news, was completely stunned. "Breaking 100 million in three days? It can really break 100 million?"

This is a breakthrough of 100 million in just three days.

Even though, strictly speaking, Lao Li has been in the industry for six years.

This period of time is not short.

Breaking 100 million in three days is still incredibly exciting and leaves people feeling stunned.

Old Li smiled and nodded, "The results on Friday and Saturday are solid. The current total box office figures for the week in mainland China are even higher than the estimated 2.5 million."

If 100% of the films are screened in mainland China, the maximum weekly box office would be 2.5 million, which would average 3571 million per day.

3571 million multiplied by 3 also exceeds 100 million.

However, the screening rate for (Gone Girl) is 95%, not 100%.

Moreover, it's impossible for all shows to be fully booked nationwide between midnight and 8 a.m.

He suspects that the current weekly box office total has risen to 2.8 million or 3 million.

Why did it suddenly increase so much from 2.2 or 2.3 million six months ago?

This is not just the continued efforts of the small cinema alliance.

This is also closely related to the fact that large capital like Wanda has entered the market, allowing for faster promotion.

The entertainment industry is so lucrative, Wanda isn't the only company trying to profit from it.
Even more outrageous is that Lao Li ranked eleventh on the Forbes Global Billionaires List, and his internet business is highly valued.

However, Time Media's valuation of nearly 100 billion RMB is also a highly attractive lure for other investors.

What was the state of the Chinese entertainment industry like before my rebirth?
This still doesn't prevent Huayi Brothers from having a market value of tens of billions and LeEco from having a market value of hundreds of billions.

That doesn't stop BTA from burning money and vying for dominance.

Dong Xuan convulsed with excitement for more than a minute before recovering and saying, "I play the lead female role, the main female lead. In fact, Huang Xiaoming's male lead is a supporting role."

"If it breaks 100 million in three days, it will definitely break 200 million in a week."

"I could still win awards, even the Hong Kong Film Awards, and even get a tie with Ah Chi. I'd be laughing in my sleep."

Old Li, “…”

Fat Bing walked over while eating a meat bun, "That's right, Ah Zhi's acting in (The Disciple) was not bad."

From the Hong Kong Film Awards in 2007, to the Golden Rooster Awards and Huabiao Awards in mainland China, and then to the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan.

I feel like I'm going to have to give out double yolks like crazy.

After Pang Bing finished his late-night snack, replenished his food, and drank a cup of herbal herbal tea, he patted Xuanxuan and said, "Why don't you go take a nap?"

"To achieve better results, the roadshow cannot stop."

This time, the promotional tour for "The Vanished Lover" did not utilize 8D Era, a brand under the Big Secrets umbrella.

It's not needed for the time being.

After all, this refers to the level of young actors.

Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao have a strong appeal, and their works are constantly being updated.

They have almost never disappointed their audience and fans.

Think about how many times Stephen Chow has made countless movie fans look forward to his films since Kung Fu Hustle.

After several more disappointments, I finally gave up all expectations of him, thinking he had run out of talent.

From Ning Hao and Jiang Wen to Ge You and so on.

That's how it is.

Megan, who was drinking water, nodded repeatedly, "I feel like I can still do promotional tours for (my lover) for another month, or maybe we should postpone La La Land's filming until the end of February?"

"Look at my partner's production efficiency, we can start filming at the end of February and still make it to the summer blockbuster season."

Megan is determined not to leave.

Li Wenyu was both amused and exasperated. "You guys can go crazy all you want. Some of these little things aren't that important."

When the sun is high in the sky at the start of a new day.

Old Li confirmed that (the missing lover) really broke 100 million in three days, reaching 1.0032 million RMB.

The results at Harbour Bay were also decent, with over HK$3100 million.

It grossed 1.31 million in its opening weekend, if it weren't for the fact that it would be released on this new Friday (John Wick 3).

Disappearance can dominate for a period of time.

No major problem, the weekly limit can be increased to between 2.8 million and 3 million.

With two blockbusters released simultaneously, each film has maintained a stable weekly box office of over 1 million.

There are still three weeks until the release of new films in the (Chinese Zodiac) series on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Both time-travel blockbusters easily grossed 300-500 million each, including continuing to dominate the Chinese Zodiac series.

…………

A little after four in the afternoon on the 29th.

After working on industrial integration for several more hours, Lao Li arrived at the underground parking lot.

He was surprised to find Huang Shengyi and Nazha chatting and strolling around his designated parking area.

The two of them ran over to greet him when they saw him.

Old Li chuckled and said, "So, you're free now, Saint Cloth?"

He opened the app to check while joking around.

Huang Shengyi's acting skills (75/100), Gulnazar's acting skills (62/100).

Leaving aside Huang Shengyi's year-long struggle in the veteran-filled drama "Crossing the Guandong," he was directly promoted to a mid-level performance teacher in the provincial team.

Naza is 62!
Last August, after 34 months of training and teaching, and with all the resources piled up, Nazha only had 50 points in acting skills.

The five-plus months from August to January 29th.

This is truly a period of rapid progress for the little girl, a time when she has accumulated a wealth of knowledge and experience that is now blossoming.

If filming were to begin now (My Own Swordsman).

Naza's performance is almost as good as the original Mo Xiaobei; she also spent more than a year immersed in the role of Mo Xiaobei.

Old Li took out two cards from his pocket. "The group ordered some New Year's gift packages for its employees through JD.com's comprehensive supermarket, with five tiers: A, B, C, D, and E."

"Nazha is rewarding you with a Class C bag, and Xiao Huang is giving you a Class B bag."

JD.com is a comprehensive retailer with more than a dozen branches nationwide, covering a wide range of retail products from all walks of life.

When Lao Li received a New Year's gift package, he immediately gave out an internal gift card.

These two girls were just waiting for him to leave so they could win his favor.

Bubbling a lot.

Huang Shengyi and the other person were pleasantly surprised and thanked them, continuing to show off their high emotional intelligence.

After showing off for a while, Huang Shengyi said with a hint of jealousy, "Senior brother, isn't Mimi's career trajectory a bit off track?"

"I learned the Taiwanese dialect but didn't have much context, and my environment wasn't as good as hers, so I admit defeat."

"But in this new era of high-flying women, she can't cheat like this."

Other 8D eras were basically native and natural? Or minor transfers?

The secret is pure technology and ruthless work.

Naza quickly interjected, "Boss, could I ask for the best dietary supplement set meal for growing taller and becoming more ambitious during puberty?"

“I’m only 15 years old, and this is exactly what I need.”

Old Li was confused for a few seconds.

As he grabbed his car keys to leave, he complained, "Stop overthinking all the time. Saint Cloth, take a few months off. If you want to star in a new project, just wait for filming to start (I hear your voice)."

"When the time comes, you'll play the female lead, dress up in a mature and glamorous way, and be the leading lady."

My daughter, Su-young, and I can hear your voice.

It's a two-part series about a certain Korean actress who rose from a second-tier actress to become a top-tier ratings queen.

Now, they've opened them up, and one was given to Jiang Shuying.

The second one can be Huang Shengyi, since Huang Shengyi is really not the type to endure hardship and struggle.

If she obediently goes to act in "Bright Sword" and "Crossing the Guandong," Old Li won't treat her badly. They're both from the Eight Beauties.

Huang Shengyi debuted with a pure and innocent image, and actually, as long as the styling and makeup are right, her face will suit you.

She can also exude a cool and aloof beauty.

Huang Shengyi expressed his gratitude with delight and said to Nazha, "Nazha, why don't you go play somewhere else? I need to consult my senior brother about some personal matters."

Old Li sensed something, and promptly got on the bus, saying, "We'll talk about it next time."

Xiao Huang has just turned 24, a wonderful age, and doesn't need to be too wild.

He went to the Thousand Miles of Time to test whether certain industrial integrations could develop smoothly as designed.

Huang Shengyi was bewildered for a moment, then watched as Lao Li drove away.

She then pulled Nazha aside and said, "Then let's all despise the big secret. I curse her to be deformed, one side big and the other small."

Naza felt a chill run down her spine. "Surely it's not that bad, Saint Cloth Sister?"

Yang Mi transformed the solo mini-boss mode into a big BOSS leading a team of elite support characters to conquer and defend territory.

That's really impolite.

But this wasn't a situation that Yang Mi actively arranged; she was tricked into joining the group after a few days of persuasion.

Huang Shengyi looked at herself, then at Nazha, and snorted angrily.

Naza is only 15 years old, but she already has a figure that seems to be catching up with hers.

Old Li also personally praised Nazha's beauty and recognizability as being in a class of its own in the industry.

……

When Lao Li went to the headquarters of Time Travel.

The head office of the media building, 11th floor.

Yang Mi hung up the phone and called out, "Come in!" Zhang Xinyu pushed the door open and entered, greeting her politely with a nervous expression.

The chief secretary was slightly surprised, got up and walked to the water bar to pour tea, "Yanzi, what brings you here?"

"I just urged some producers in the industry to help us create good songs. As long as the songs are good, money is not a problem."

Whether our team can achieve unconventional great success still depends on our efforts.

Yang Mi continues to slack off on the set of (It Started With a Kiss 2).

Risa, the original Eastern European model and actress from Prank 2, also flew in to rehearse the dance.

We can always turn it back on after the New Year.

The film crew of "Liu Shishi (My Daughter)" will be filming for at least three to five months, plus annual leave.

Zhang Xinyu greeted them again with an awkward smile, her expression growing increasingly strange, conveying unease, panic, and surprise.

But it also contains little surprises and anticipation.

The complexity of the expressions on her face is hard to describe.

The mastermind discovered something amiss while pouring tea, nearly overflowing the teacup.

After she brought two cups of tea to the reception area and sat down, she jokingly asked with a smile, "Did you see a ghost?"

Zhang Xinyu quickly shook her head, took a sip of tea to calm herself, and said, "Sister Mi, I encountered a bizarre thing. I originally wanted to report it to Sister Bingbing or Senior Brother Li."

"In the end, I'd like to ask you for your help in making a decision."

The secretary was quite pleased. "This seems to be a serious matter?"

She guessed it from the changes in Zhang Xinyu's expression.

Zhang Xinyu took another sip of tea to calm her nerves. "It's quite a big deal. A weirdo contacted me. I don't know who it is; they're definitely a stranger."

"They tricked me into thinking I could steal my boss's genetic material, promising 3000 million RMB if I succeeded."

"Or I could steal it and keep it for myself, so that I could escape to the United States once I have hostages."

"Give me at least 3 million RMB."

"Moreover, both China and the US have the right to inherit by children born out of wedlock."

She was still talking.

The chief secretary, who was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, drinking tea, suddenly stumbled and fell flat on her face.

The teacup was thrown out and shattered.

When she coughed loudly and tried to turn over, Zhang Xinyu put down her teacup and ran to help her.

The secret agent pushed away the person who was being helped up, rolled over and sat on the floor, panting for a couple of seconds. Then she stood up, clapped her hands, and exclaimed, "Holy crap!"

No wonder Zhang Xinyu looked like she'd seen a ghost not long ago.

After instructing her assistant to come in and clean the floor, she went to make coffee.

Neither of them spoke while their assistants were busy; they remained quiet, though their expressions were quite interesting.

After the assistant left, the chief secretary took a sip of coffee and muttered, "Damn it..."

She wanted to swear but couldn't find the words.

Taking another sip of coffee, Yang Mi said in surprise, "I remember my senior sister telling me that the business war that President Li encountered started when SoftBank arranged for someone to use an RPG to blow up his bodyguard's car at Peninsula."

"They threatened him to sell more Weibo shares."

"Then they'll put addictive drugs in his food to corrupt him."

“Some people have even gone so far as to approach a certain woman and offer eight figures to buy genetic cells.”

"I used to think this was an eye-opener, but you're running away with hostages? At least 3 million?"

Old Li is still so young; he was born in 1981 and is only 26 years old this year.

This is utter nonsense about illegitimate children's inheritance rights.

As the big secret ranted, Zhang Xinyu's eyes widened, her face filled with shock and bewilderment.

This was compounded by the harassing phone calls and emails she received from strangers.

There have been more than one precedent for this.

After a moment of shock, Zhang Xinyu ran back to the reception area, grabbed a teacup, and drank some tea to calm her nerves. "Some people even said that if I took the hostages and fled to the United States..."

"Regardless of whether there is evidence or not, if someone wants to extort money, they can sue their senior for raping a woman."

"For the sake of his global reputation, my senior will definitely have to pay a lot of money to settle this privately."

"Even if it costs several hundred million, we can reliably open source it."

There was a hint of excitement in her voice.

The chief secretary stared wide-eyed in disbelief and shock. "You're tempted?"

Zhang Xinyu hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands, "Impossible, no, don't frame me! I was shocked by the dark tactics of those behind the scenes, so shrewd!"

"Why would someone contact me and try to scam me like this?"

"Do they think I'm likely to achieve these things?"

The sheer number of young and middle-aged actresses signed by Time Entertainment is staggering.

And students in school are even less likely to be included.

Zhang Xinyu's slight excitement stemmed from the fact that she had received such a deceptive package.

Could it be that, in the eyes of some mysterious force, she is Old Li's favorite type, someone who is likely to succeed?
Fearing her secret confidante might not believe her, Zhang Xinyu added, "Sister Bing's wealth is almost reaching 10 billion RMB, right? An Jing has already received so much."

In October last year, Fan Bingbing was assessed as having assets of over 28 billion yuan, ranking 73rd on the list of mainland richest people.

They went into hiding at the time.

But this also caused Moutai's stock to hit the daily limit one after another, and it just wouldn't stop.

The surge was even more dramatic than the original trajectory.

According to the original trajectory, at the end of January 2007, Moutai's market value was over 99 billion yuan.

Now there are several consecutive limit-up days.

Although it's outrageous, it's just a matter of Maotai's own hype and promotion capabilities.

The combination of the increased drinking parties and gift-giving during the Spring Festival, along with Lao Li's positive outlook on Maotai, caused a sensation.

Xiao Zhang knew all this, and she excitedly said again, "If I could get on the bus, would I need to bring hostages for ransom? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"

Da Mi Mi, "..."

Yang Mi was stunned for a few seconds, then finished her cup of coffee and nodded, "You're right."

Liu Shishi and Tong Liya don't earn as much as Bingbing.

But those who lived a stable and comfortable life received plenty of benefits.

It's the end of January.

The value of the Apple investments made by Xiao Liu and others has already yielded a net profit of over 175%.

3000 million became more than 8000 million.

Or 5000 million becomes 1.37 million.

If you leave it there, it will continue to rise.

Moreover, his film and television fees, advertising endorsements, and new, successful big projects continue to come.

Which of these isn't more comfortable and easy than running away with hostages or extorting money?

Yang Mi quickly said, "Wait a minute, I'll take you to report to your senior brother. This is a good reason to see him more often."

"If he gets angry, we can wiggle our hips to cheer him up; that's also an opportunity."
