"Hurry up and use the nunchucks, hehehehaxi!"

"Hurry up and use the nunchucks, hehehehaxi!"

On the stage, a young man was walking, waving his arms, and singing hard.

In the audience, a group of teenage fans kept cheering:

"cool!"

"Holy crap!"

"Jielun, Jielun!"

Last month, Jay Chou released his second solo album, "Fantasy." If the first album "Jay" only made him famous, then this second album "Fantasy" really made him famous.

Xiao Zhou was really talented at this time. The songs in this album are all excellent, which is much higher than "Christmas Star" 20 years later.

But what really made him break out of the music industry was the song "Nunchaku" that spread throughout the streets and alleys in the Chinese-speaking area.

Of course, the success of this song is also due to the contribution of the lyricist Fang Wenshan. Not only are the lyrics cool, but the line in the chorus "Use the nunchucks quickly, hum ha ha!" is really memorable, basically Anyone who has listened to it once, whether they like it or hate it, will remember it in their mind.

And for it to spread so quickly, it was natural that Little White Bear was behind it. Little White Bear is much stronger than Alpha. In terms of publicity and channels, they also fully promoted Xiao Zhou's album. F4 also helped to promote it on the platform. Naturally, it became popular faster and earlier than in the previous life. The album has been on the market for less than a month, and its sales have already exceeded one million, doubling the sales of the first album.

Now, after winning the Golden Melody Award, Jaylen's confidence has greatly increased, and he is much more confident in front of the stage than before. His appearance has been changed. He no longer wears a baseball cap when he comes out, and he jumps up and down with a confident smile.

He has now crossed the mainland and came to Hong Kong Island to promote. Although the language communication with the fans here was not very smooth, he was not stage frightened at all and responded to the fans' enthusiasm.

After finishing today's promotional activities, Jay Chou had just returned to the hotel room when Kenji Wu knocked on the door to look for him:

"Jielun, Jielun, come on!"

"What's going on?"

"Watch the football! We are all ready! In fact, I have never watched it before, but the football atmosphere here on Hong Kong Island is really strong!"

Kequn Wu said as he pulled Jay Chou out. When they arrived at Huang Xiaoming's room, they found that everyone from F4 was here. Xiao Zhou also smiled and said hello: "Brother Xiao Ming, Brother A Liang, Brother Zhenyu~"

Upon seeing this, Huang Xiaoming greeted him: "Come on, come on, you're back just in time, this game is about to start! If we can win, our Chinese team can enter the World Cup!"

Xiao Zhou actually didn't watch many football games before.

Because of the influence of neon and old America, the number one sport in Wanwan has always been baseball. The second most popular, which many people may not guess, is badminton, while basketball and volleyball rank third and fourth. As for football...it's not even in the top ten. Therefore, Bayan is a football desert. Even during the World Cup, there are not many people watching football.

But Hong Kong Island is different. Because of the influence of the British in the past, football is undoubtedly the most popular sport on Hong Kong Island. Tonight is a key battle for the Chinese team to compete in the World Cup. Even on Hong Kong Island, many fans are paying attention.

As the locals do, when they arrived on Hong Kong Island, Huang Xiaoming and others specially invited him, so Xiao Zhou naturally actively watched the game with everyone.

At the same time, the night stalls in mainland China are also very popular tonight. Every boss has also tried his best to put a TV on the stall and tune it to the live broadcast of CCTV 5, otherwise no one will come to your house to eat!

On the sofa, Gao Yuanyuan was pulling Wu Yuchen nervously: "Brother Chen, do you think we can enter this year?"

Gao Yuanyuan is a true football fan. He joined the Guoan Fans Association in Beijing when he was in junior high school. In high school, he even wrote a love letter to Cao Xiandong, Guoan's golden left footer at the time.

Wu Yuchen said with a smile: "The current national football team is at its strongest, and now has 4 wins and a draw, ranking first in points, strong momentum, and sitting at home. And with the lessons learned from the last term, there should be no referees this time Interference, the Golden State tragedy will never happen again."

When the last World Cup was held in 1997, the national football team was also at the top of the group points. In the last two rounds, they could qualify by keeping a draw. However, Iran was leading 2:0 and was chased by 4 goals in a row. In the last game, it was again The loss to Qatar 2:3 resulted in a 1-point failure to advance, creating the famous Golden State tragedy in the history of Chinese football.

The loss was due to a combination of factors, including being careless and underestimating the enemy. There was also the reason why West Asian referees affected the game in order to help Iran. In the end, it successfully helped Iran lead China by 1 point to get a World Cup spot.

"I think so!" Gao Yuanyuan said with a smile, and waved a specially prepared small Chinese national flag, which was very cute.

Two hours later, when China won the game 1:0 against Oman, Gao Yuanyuan could not help but scream in excitement. Not only her, but the shouts from outside also reached Wu Yuchen's ears. The fans tonight were all excited.

Groups of fans gathered together and shouted on the streets:

"Long live Chinese football!"

"Team China! Rise up!"

The commentator on the TV kept shouting:

"Chinese football has done it! Break out of Asia and go to the world!"

Tsk, tsk, tsk, Wu Yuchen looked at this scene, looked at these fans who were so happy that they were crazy, and for some reason, he remembered the scene more than ten years later in his mind: "Are you worthy of us? Geneva, refund your money!"

I thought of the programmers with no deadlines and Tiezi who was said to have been imprisoned for 15 years after a suicide attempt. With these people around, how could Chinese football be good? What I thought was the starting point of a bright future is actually the pinnacle!

In a year's time, I will go to the World Cup to eat a duck egg and come back. Call it embarrassing, but it was an expected result.

On the one hand, the opponents in the group were too strong, with Brazil and Turkey winning the championship and finishing third. On the other hand, the players who entered the World Cup were not the best lineup at all, and were all the result of various relationships.

Everyone knows that your worth will skyrocket if you make your World Cup debut. With such a huge benefit, who cares whether you are good or bad, or whether you play well? What matters now is relationships and money. This trend has lasted for more than 20 years and has not changed, haha.

But at this time, Wu Yuchen's cell phone suddenly rang again. He opened it and saw that it was his agent Karl. He picked up the phone and asked:

"Karl, what's going on?"

"Wu, just now, Commander-in-Chief Xiao Bu officially announced in the Black Palace that he will launch a war on terrorism, fight violence with violence, and send troops to Afghanistan."

Wu Yuchen was stunned for a moment. Although he had known what was going to happen for a long time, he didn't expect it to be released at this time, but the Americans never cared about whether you qualified for the national football team or not.

Wu Yuchen immediately asked: "What is the public opinion in America like now?"

Karl said: "Because of 911, there are many voices in China supporting sending troops. But we in Hollywood have always promoted peace and anti-war slogans, so you'd better not express your attitude on this matter."

Wu Yuchen nodded: "Don't worry, I know this kind of thing."

If you shout against the war now, you will offend many people in the United States who were aroused by 9/11. If you support the war now, you will directly oppose Hollywood. And when many people start to oppose the war afterwards, then It’s hard to take back what you said as a public figure.

Therefore, Karl also called specifically to remind him, fearing that Wu Yuchen did not understand the situation in the United States. At this time, it was best not to speak out and to remain silent first.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Yuchen thought in his mind that this war was so fast that the local regime was destroyed in less than 2 months. But slowly, the United States was dragged into the quagmire. It was only in 2021 that it withdrew and invested trillions in military spending.

Then he shook his head, my hometown is the most peaceful!

Thinking of China, it is not an exaggeration to say that this year is a year of good fortune for China. Putting aside the fact that the United States has relaxed its focus and clampdown on China due to 911, there have been several major events this year, including the successful bid for the Olympics, the qualification of the national football team, and in December, China will successfully join the World Trade Organization (WTO). It means that China is constantly moving towards the world. Especially this last one has greatly contributed to the development of China.

Wu Yuchen looked at Gao Yuanyuan, who was still celebrating, and picked her up. He also watched the game, and then it was time for him to play in person.

For the next period of time, Wu Yuchen was busy with the post-production of "Xiu Chun Knife" and also paid attention to some of the company's new projects.

In fact, Miracle Pictures has already opened a lot of dramas this year, from "Black Hole", "Conquest", "Escape with Wings", to "Xiao Shiyilang", "Emperor of the Han Dynasty", "Love Through Time", etc., such as "Black Hole" It has already been arranged to be broadcast soon, and there is not so much manpower to develop new dramas.

But this time it’s Zhang Beard’s “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”. Beard has his own filming team, and Miracle Films only needs to invest. It is this time that the lineup of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has changed a lot from the previous version. This version of "The Condor Heroes" in the previous life was basically a failure. The most criticized thing is the lineup, and the key is concentrated on the male and female protagonists.

Let’s talk about the male lead Li Yapeng first. In fact, his performance as Linghu Chong was passable, but Guo Jing was not. You must know that Guo Jing is honest and honest, and he is wise but foolish. However, Li Yapeng's Guo Jing is too dull, dull, and silly, which is a bit artificial. In other words, you can tell at a glance that he is just pretending. Many viewers even scolded Li Yapeng's Guo Jing for not having a missing brain, but for having an extra chromosome.

Zhou Xun's Huang Rong did a good job, but with her rough voice, how could she have Ronger's clear voice like a silver bell?

Therefore, the male and female protagonists were simply replaced. This time Guo Jing and Huang Rong are played by Liu Ye and Jiang Qinqin.

That's right, Zhang Beard is all about causing trouble. Liu Ye and Jiang Qinqin have collaborated once before in "If Love Has God's Will", and the effect was very good. This time they are cast again to play the classic couple of Guo Jing and Huang Rong. This is the promotional traffic that comes with it!

Liu Ye himself plays the leading actor in "If Love Is Provident", a silly boy with a silly and cute temperament, which is actually quite suitable for Guo Jing. Jiang Qinqin, on the other hand, has never played a role similar to Huang Rong before, so I wonder if she can bring out that clever and cute energy.

But Wu Yuchen is not very worried, he just lets Jiang Qinqin challenge himself and broaden his acting options. In fact, no matter whether the acting was good or bad, the moment she settled on Huang Rong, she absorbed this wave of traffic and popularity of The Condor and Huang Rong, which was very beneficial to her personally.

For Jiang Qinqin to play Huang Rong, Wu Yuchen's opening is naturally indispensable. This time "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was made by Zhang Dabeard who left CCTV and worked alone. The investor was Miracle Pictures. Naturally, the words of Wu Yuchen, the big financier, are the most effective. Besides, Jiang Qinqin is one of the most famous actresses in China. It was impossible to dislike him, he was committed as soon as the project was approved, and then he auditioned for the leading role before settling on Liu Ye.

Of course, Zhang Bearded's casting this time also brought out a circle of female stars for teasing. Zhao Wei, Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, etc. were not spared. The male and female protagonists were not announced until the filming was about to start. This guy's traditional craftsmanship .

On this day, Wu Yuchen received a call from Han Sanping, so he put down what he was doing and rushed to China Film.

As soon as they met, Han Sanping asked with concern: "Director Wu, how is your "Xiu Chun Knife"? When do you plan to release it?"

Wu Yuchen said with a smile: "It's not finished yet. The special effects and soundtrack are being worked on. Why is Brother Han so impatient?"

Han Sanping laughed and said: "Director Wu Wu's new movie is a big martial arts production. Who doesn't want to see it first?"

But then he added: "And there will be reforms next year. Only Brother Wu can control these guys with your movies!"

Wu Yuchen's eyes immediately lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but leaned over and asked, "Brother Han, have you decided?"

Han Sanping smiled and nodded, then took out two documents and pushed them in front of Wu Yuchen: "We just had a meeting and it will be released to the public next month. Take a look."

Wu Yuchen immediately took the documents and saw one that read "Implementation Rules on Reforming the Film Distribution and Exhibition Mechanism", which basically means that we must resolutely implement the theater chain system, with theater lines as the main body, reduce the distribution level, and production units can directly Provide films to theaters.

However, the introduction of the policy is one thing, and the implementation effect after it is implemented is another. When the time comes, the theater reform will definitely face resistance at all levels. Han Sanping’s intention is to use Wu Yuchen’s "Xiu Chun Knife" to do it A general who charges into battle. After all, Wu Yuchen's big productions are now unacceptable to all theater chains, in order to reduce the resistance encountered in the reform.

Wu Yuchen thought about it and understood what Han Sanping meant, and then said: "The Spring Festival movie may not be available in time. How about releasing it in the summer movie next year?"

"Okay, it will be released in the summer, and we at China Film will fully cooperate with you in promoting it!"
