This celebrity is overly enthusiastic!

Chapter 50 The Kiss of Victory (Bonus Chapter for Qixi Festival!)

(Thank you to all readers for your monthly tickets and donations. Happy Qixi Festival to all readers!)
This feeling has happened occasionally before, and suddenly a better combination of lighting and lens composition angles comes to mind.

Sometimes, following a vague understanding will produce amazing results, while other times the photos will be just average and not very satisfactory.

Regardless, ever since he shot that amazing Changhong commercial in 99 and joined Metaverse with his boss, he felt that his photography skills had improved significantly.

Xiao Li's mind raced, his eyes fixed on the two brightest figures in the viewfinder.

Adjust the aperture to blur the background and assess the effects of the dim lighting in the auditorium and the diffuse reflection from the projection screen.
OK, perfect picture, I'm a fucking genius!
The camera promptly pressed the shutter, capturing a photograph.

The night the bid for the Olympics was successful, the entire nation erupted in jubilation!
40 citizens spontaneously poured into the square to celebrate, waving national flags and chanting "The capital has won! China has won!"

Fireworks lit up the China Millennium Monument, attracting tens of thousands of people. XXXXX personally attended the event and celebrated with the crowd!
Celebrations of all sizes and all over the world are taking place throughout the night!
Fireworks and firecrackers on the Tsinghua University campus attracted faculty and students from across the university. Chen Yuan, Fan Binbin, and the voice cast of "Kung Fu Panda" celebrated with them until late into the night!

The following day, all the national media outlets published front-page headlines and special editions celebrating the capital's successful bid for the Olympics, accompanied by numerous photos of people celebrating across the country, including those from the Moscow venue, the CCTV studio, and Tiananmen Square.

One photo in particular stands out: a passionate kiss between Chen Yuan and Fan Binbin inside the Tsinghua University auditorium after the successful bid for the Olympics.

In the blurred background, the other members of the crew and the college students embraced each other, letting loose their excitement.

Chen Yuan put his hands on Fan Binbin's waist, and Fan Binbin wrapped her arms around Chen Yuan's neck.
Their lips met, their reddened eyes staring at each other, their emotions of attachment, affection, focus, excitement, and joy almost overflowing.

The reflection from the curtain shone on their sides, the light and shadow highlighting their perfect profiles with tear stains.

Many less serious media outlets reprinted the story, and some even used it as their cover.

There's no way around it; the man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, their emotions are genuine and moving, and their appeal is incredibly strong.

Among a multitude of photos depicting celebration, joy, and tears of excitement, this particular photo of Chen Yuan and Fan Binbin stands out.

Not to mention that Chen Yuan was also the director of "Kung Fu Panda," who greatly promoted Chinese culture to the outside world and made a significant contribution to the Olympic bid.

Foreign media outlets have been using this eye-catching photo extensively during their coverage of Beijing's successful bid for the Olympics, and have given it the nickname: The Kiss of Victory!

The nationwide celebrations won't last just one night. In addition to traditional events like galas, concerts, and fireworks displays, there will be a variety of special activities to welcome the Olympics.

Events such as swimming competitions, long-distance running activities, and large-scale marathons radiate from the capital to the whole country.

One activity that was very popular with the public was going to the cinema to watch "Kung Fu Panda"!
This chubby, greedy, hardworking, and lucky panda became the most special 'Olympic bid ambassador' in the previous publicity campaign.
It's already firmly tied to the Olympic bid process, so how could we forget it when we celebrate?
Suddenly, cinemas in big cities became lively again, and the number of screenings of "Kung Fu Panda" skyrocketed once more!
Metaverse also took the opportunity to release a 40-second animated short film featuring the main animal characters from "Kung Fu Panda" celebrating the capital's successful bid for the Olympics in the Valley of Peace and the Emerald Palace, which was repeatedly broadcast on various television news programs.

After the successful bid for the Olympics, we need to consider things like Olympic logos and mascots. There is a lot of public opinion against it, so why not just let Abao be the mascot? The situation overseas is also particularly encouraging.

In the early 2000s, when entertainment options were relatively limited, the Olympics were quite popular.

If there were a trending topics list now, the successful bid for the Olympics by Beijing would definitely be trending in various countries.

In such a media environment, ordinary people in foreign countries will more or less become interested in this previously low-profile Eastern power, and inevitably, "Kung Fu Panda" will be mentioned in these reports.

Kung Fu Panda is also currently the only film where you can directly experience and feel Chinese culture and elements.

After more than half a month of release, the movie has received pretty good reviews.

Columbia Pictures wasn't stupid either. Almost immediately after the capital won the bid to host the Olympics, they realized that this was a super advertisement for "Kung Fu Panda" that could not be matched by any amount of publicity spending!
They immediately added another layer of publicity budget, taking advantage of the short-lived but highly popular 'China fever' to promote the movie effectively!

Overnight, Kung Fu Panda's overseas box office stopped declining, and both its screenings and box office revenue surged!
Columbia Pictures excitedly told Chen Yuan that he was incredibly lucky; thanks to the successful bid for the Olympics, the box office of "Kung Fu Panda" would increase by at least another $8000 million!
Chen Yuan also received meetings and commendations at different levels for a period of time after the successful bid for the Olympics.

Kung Fu Panda propelled Chen Yuan and the Metaverse to new heights, firmly establishing Chen Yuan in this seniority-driven, relationship-based, and particularly feudal world.

And no one will ever look down on him again because of his young age!
This film has become a shared memory symbol for the entire nation. Whenever someone mentions the days of hardship and joy during the Olympic bid, a gluttonous, fat but agile panda will be brought up.

The next time A Bao will appear will be when the 2008 Olympics are actually held.

It certainly won't be the 2D hand-drawn animation that Chen Yuan and the artists painstakingly created.

The outside world is showering Chen Yuan with praise. Besides his unparalleled fame and influence, many people are calculating how much he can earn from "Kung Fu Panda".

The box office revenue from the movie alone, along with the production of related toys and the licensing of movie character images, is at least six or seven hundred million yuan!

Global overseas distribution of films is incredibly profitable!
It's clear that Kung Fu Panda can have sequels.

Other Hollywood studios, especially Paramount's DreamWorks and Disney, are particularly interested in Kung Fu Panda and want to buy all the film's rights outright, which will come at a high price.

Chen Yuan's Metaverse, with just the complete copyright to "Kung Fu Panda," could become the most valuable film and television company in China.

Including expected returns, Chen Yuan's net worth is now at least 10 billion!

The transformation from "not even as good as Feng Feng" to a genius animation director who amazes the world, and "the most outstanding young person in the country with a net worth of 10 billion yuan," has only taken a little over a month!
