The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 79 Boss, Someone Is Bumping On You

"Zhang Chen, why did you suddenly cancel your trip to the United States?"

Not long after Zhang Chen made the decision, Zhou Jianhui called him personally to ask why Zhang Chen canceled the trip.

"Mr. Zhou, you should have seen the news, right?"

"You mean Europe?"

"Correct."

"But this has nothing to do with you." Zhou Jianhui was a little anxious. You know, North America is Zhang Chen's main album sales place, which can basically contribute more than 10 million sales for each album of Zhang Chen.

If this offends the fans over there, Zhang Chen doesn't know how he will be criticized by the North American fans.

"Why does it not matter? Under the current circumstances, if I go to the United States for a book signing event with great fanfare, what will people in China think?" Zhang Chen is now one of the most famous people both at home and abroad.

All his actions were scrutinized under a magnifying glass.

"Then what about your beautiful national anthem fan?" Zhou Jianhui was still not giving up and was still thinking about trying to persuade her.

"We'll compensate them later. We can only let them suffer at this time." Zhang Chen said perfunctorily. He hadn't said anything else. What he was eyeing was the money in the pockets of the people living on that land.

Once things calm down, I believe Warner, who also wants to make money, will deal with the impact of this incident.

Some people have said before that the people in Zhang Chen’s land are forgetful, and after a while they allow those who are crooked or discriminate against them to make money.

If they can do it, why can't Zhang Chen do it?

On the other side of the ocean in North America, many media outlets also reported that Zhang Chen had canceled his trip to the United States:
"Zhang Chen temporarily canceled all fan meetings in the United States."

"I have failed to live up to the recognition of the Grammy Awards and failed to live up to the fans of the beautiful country's anthem."

"Zhang Chen canceled the fan meeting. What was his purpose?"

Warner Records' competitors finally got the chance to criticize Zhang Chen openly.

You have to know that in the past two years, Zhang Chen's rapid rise has brought unprecedented pressure to other record companies.

They have been looking for an opportunity to suppress Zhang Chen's arrogance, but they can't find any negative information about Zhang Chen.

But today they finally found a breakthrough. These record company giants frantically used their connections to throw dirty water on Zhang Chen.

Of course, Warner Records, who stood on Zhang Chen's side, also helped Zhang Chen explain the reason:
"Due to a sudden illness, Zhang Chen needs to rest at home for a while, and the fan meeting of the beautiful national anthem will be postponed."

This news is not a big deal. Warner also has media windows, but it is still difficult to cope with the wolves surrounding it.

Regardless of the ups and downs overseas, Zhang Chen began to live a secluded life again without the tedious schedule behind him.

Now is not a suitable time to hold any celebratory activities.

While Zhang Chen was studying hard, news from the entertainment industry would still reach his ears from time to time.

For example, the "Double Qi" incident in June, the love affairs of Hong Kong stars always make the front page headlines, and this is also thanks to the fearless reporters in Hong Kong who dare to report it.

By the end of June, "Return of the Condor Heroes 2" was also picked up by ATV, and in the following days, its ratings defeated its rival TVB. In addition to breaking ATV's own ratings, in the finale, it even defeated TVB's ace program, breaking TVB's inertia of ratings.

For ATV, which has always been in a 2:2 or even : ratio with TVB in the market, "My Fair Princess " has helped them to make a great comeback. In July, "My Fair Princess " was also broadcast in mainland China, continuing the ratings miracle of the previous one, and suppressing other TV series.

For Zhang Chen, the fact that "My Fair Princess 2" is popular in Hong Kong means money.

The two "My Fair Princess" series earned more than 2 million yuan from the copyright of the TV series alone, bringing Qiong Yao an income of nearly 5 million yuan.

However, Morning Glory Entertainment could only get about 10 percent of the dividends because the dividend ratio of the first part was not high.

However, this also brought about 4000 million in revenue to Morning Light Entertainment.

What is important is not the income, but the successful investment in a hit TV series, which will provide a lot of convenience for the company to invest in other film and television dramas in the future.

In August, the martial arts drama "Swallow Li San" was a hit, and "The Flying Dagger of Little Li" produced exclusively by Chenguang Entertainment was also successfully broadcast on satellite TV.

Needless to say, the series was a huge hit and brought in approximately 3000 million in revenue for Morning Glory Entertainment.

This is only the first round of premiere rights, and the price for the subsequent second round of rebroadcasting is still under negotiation. But no matter what, this TV series will become a golden signboard for Chenguang Entertainment in the field of TV series production.

While the TV series was a hit, it also made a number of actors famous.

Among them, Liu Xiaoli and Fan Bingbing from Chenguang Entertainment also successfully became second-tier actors thanks to this drama.

Although she is not as well-known as Zhao Zhetian, she is no longer the "Ling Fei" and "Jinsuo" in the audience's minds. Instead, she has left an impression on the audience with her real name.

In September, Zhang Yimou's "Not One Less" won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival.

In the same month, "My 1919", co-produced by Morning Light Entertainment, won the Special Jury Award at the Beijing University Student Film Festival.

It was also in this month that King Guo was framed and put in a very embarrassing situation.

In addition, Zhang Baizhi’s budding acting career was almost ruined because of his father.

In late September, after learning the release date of Liu Dehua and Leon Lai, Yinghuang Entertainment specially named Xie Tingfeng's album "Chinese Style 9".

However, apart from the word "Chinese style" in the album title, the songs in it have nothing to do with Chinese style. It is purely an attempt to elevate Xie Tingfeng to a certain status.

Zhang Chen was a little surprised by this operation, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense.

In his previous life, Xie Tingfeng changed the title of his album to "Thank You For Your Love 1999" in an attempt to piggyback on Liu Dehua's song "Thank You For Your Love" and raise his status.

If we were to ask who is the most famous person in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, there would be no other choice except Zhang Chen.

"Boss, Yinghuang is so blatantly riding on your popularity, do we need to warn him?" After getting the news, Yin Zilan also came to Zhang Chen's house and asked him in person how to deal with the matter.

"No need. If I really respond, it will only fulfill their wish. They would rather I come down and fight with them." Zhang Chen waved his hand, disagreeing with this approach.

"Just let it go like that?" Yin Zilan didn't think Zhang Chen would let off such behavior so easily.

"Now is not the right time. Let's put it on the account first and ask him to pay it back later." Zhang Chen didn't want to jump too much at this moment. What happened in May, plus the incident in Taiwan Island in July, the situation was already tense enough. If he started a fight with Hong Kong Island again, wouldn't that just cause more trouble?

　The plot is starting to speed up, and the exciting moments are coming soon.
