The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 48 Beverly Hills

However, if I were to bring up this topic myself, it would be suspected of deliberate advertising and the effect might not be very good.

So Zhang Chen was waiting for the reporters to ask a question that would give him an opportunity.

Sure enough, after these people asked a few more questions related to the Grammy Awards, after not getting any substantive information, one of the reporters asked, "Leon, how long will you stay in Los Angeles this time? Will you attend other events?"

Zhang Chen perked up when he heard this. He answered the reporter's question, "I'm afraid I can't stay long this time. After attending the Grammy Awards, I need to go to Ying Country to handle a very important matter."

"What's the important news? Can you tell us?" The reporters around were shocked when they heard Zhang Chen's answer and started asking questions one after another.

"You should have noticed that the novel "Harry Potter" has been published in North America, right?" Zhang Chen asked.

"What does this have to do with you going to Ying Country, Leon?"

"I have the film adaptation rights for this book. This time I go to Britain to discuss the possibility of adapting the Harry Potter series into a movie." Zhang Chen followed up on the reporter's question and gave them a reporting material that they liked.

"Is Leon going to star in Harry Potter? Or shoot this movie?" The reporters also became excited.

However, Zhang Chen is also well versed in the ins and outs of breaking news. This kind of news needs to be revealed bit by bit. The more versions speculated by the outside world, the hotter the topic will be.

This will be of great benefit to the release of future Harry Potter movies.

As for hype, the capitalists of later generations have already summed up a complete set of processes.

Zhang Chen also knows very well that if you want to promote a movie under normal circumstances, you need to spend a lot of real money, but if you give the news to the media, they think that this news is worth discussing by the whole nation, and they will take the initiative to help you promote it.

Again, as long as both parties benefit, it is a mutually beneficial thing.

"Whether the project can be established still requires me to discuss, so I don't have any more information to reveal to you." Seeing that they wanted to ask more questions, Zhang Chen smiled and refused to reveal more information.

Seeing that Zhang Chen refused to give in and that the project seemed to be in the preparation stage, the media reporters thought they could not ask any more questions, so they said hello to Zhang Chen and hurried back to the company, wanting to release the news as quickly as possible.

News, news, only the latest news can be called news, so the media that publishes it first can get the most benefits.

At this time, it depends on who can go back and report the news first, so the reporters ran faster than each other, and in a blink of an eye, the scene of being surrounded just now disappeared in front of Zhang Chen.

"Let's go quickly, or we'll be surrounded again." Zhang Chen looked at the onlookers around him who were ready to make a move.

But they were still a step slow. When the reporters surrounded them, the people around were just watching and trying to confirm which star it was.

After watching for a while, I realized it was the "genius singer" Leon Zhang. Many people started to take action after the reporters dispersed.

"Leon, I really like your new song, it's so cool! Can you sign it for me?"

"Leon, can we take a picture together?"

He didn't know if the people around him were his fans, but since they were so enthusiastic, Zhang Chen couldn't just leave them alone. In the end, he had to walk around under the protection of the bodyguards he brought with him, taking photos with everyone and signing autographs.

After finally arriving at the parking lot, Zhang Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He regretted agreeing to Yin Zilan and the others' arrangement. He would keep his schedule secret if possible in the future. It would be more appropriate to answer reporters' questions at a formal press conference or some award ceremony.

Los Angeles International Airport is not far from Zhang Chen’s house in Beverly Hills. It takes less than half an hour to drive to his doorstep.

The house he bought last year for $2000 million is still far from those mansions called "estates."

Zhang Chen's residence is located in the north area of Sunset Boulevard in Beverly Hills, covering an area of about 85000 square feet, and the residential area covers about 11000 square feet. It has multiple private gardens, a tennis court, and an outdoor swimming pool.

The main house has six bedrooms, five bathrooms and a separate guest apartment.

After arriving home, everyone quickly arranged their accommodation. Zhang Chen, Sun Fangping, Yin Zilan, and Xue Yining each had a room, and Zhang Chen's driver, Brother Wang, who had been following him this year, and other accompanying personnel also stayed in the guest apartment.

"Chenchen, are you confident in going to Ying Country in the future?" After packing her luggage, Sun Fangping came to Zhang Chen's room.

"I'm not sure. Let's do our best." Zhang Chen knew what Sun Fangping was worried about. Although Zhang Chen owned the filming rights for "Harry Potter", the manpower and resources required to bring an obviously super A-level production to the big screen were not possessed by Zhang Chen's company.

The film and television production company that I bought in the United States has now changed its name to "sunlight". This company has been involved in the crews of major productions for a year, helping them and doing some outsourcing. At the same time, it also produced some small-scale films on its own.

Although I already have some experience in producing films, I still feel a little overwhelmed when I want to get started with a top-notch A-level production.

So we can only cooperate with those big Hollywood studios.

Zhang Chen’s only advantage is that he holds the copyright and has the right to choose.

If we can't reach an agreement with Warner, we can look for other big companies. After all, the initiative is in our hands.

If he cannot get the benefits he expected, he would rather seal the "Harry Potter" IP indefinitely and unblock it when he is able to produce it independently.

Now it depends on how much sincerity the partners can show.

"I investigated the company you mentioned. It's a small company and there doesn't seem to be anything special about it." Sun Fangping mentioned another thing.

"I am optimistic about this company." Zhang Chen couldn't explain why. This company would become the most highly valued company in the world in the future, but it was indeed too weak now.

"I'll listen to you. It seems that your judgment has never been wrong so far." Sun Fangping looked at her son with complicated eyes. As a mother, Sun Fangping was under extraordinary pressure because she had a son whose vision far surpassed hers.

But since her son's achievements became greater and greater, Sun Fangping has actually figured it out. Before her son grows up, she just needs to stand in front of him and attract the attention of outsiders.
