Hongchen is now completely popular all over the world.

"The Shawshank Redemption" has become more and more liked by more and more people, and the evaluation has become higher and higher.

And it didn't take long for the Oscar organizing committee to announce the news that "The Shawshank Redemption" was shortlisted.

The film received 12 nominations outright, making it one of the most nominated films in all Oscars.

They are the Oscars for Best Picture, Best Actor (Best Actor), Best Supporting Actor, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Film Editing, Best Art Effect, Best Soundtrack, Best Soundtrack, Best Art Direction, Best Soundtrack, and Best Costume Design.

This news is also expected. Netizens said they were not surprised that the film received so many nominations.

It deserves so.

"Congratulations on the nomination of the actor. Yan Chi congratulated Hong Chen as soon as possible.

"Hahaha, you also have a nomination for Best Director. "Hong Chen and he came to a wave of business blowing.

After "The Shawshank Redemption", the status of both people has risen.

There are many investors who are looking for Yan Chi to film with scripts, and Yan Chi is now also an international director, and he is more picky about scripts.

Hong Chen is here that there are countless scripts looking for him, and he is also choosing the next suitable movie.

This year's world stage is already destined to belong to him.

Now everyone can see that "The Shawshank Redemption" will be famous all over the world.

Unless, it can really be like the year in the parallel world, there are two more classics that can compete with "The Shawshank Redemption".

But this probability is too low.

Flower Sea Media.

As one of the four major media companies, Huahai is a real big business, and there are several top first-line companies.

Huahai's focus is on the shaping of artists in men's groups, women's groups and drafts, and the film and television industry is also the focus, and there are many powerful artists under it.

At this moment, General Manager Wang Yao looked at a list in his hand and fell into deep thought.

What he holds in his hand is the Forbes China Celebrity List.

Forbes is the most authoritative list of the richest people, and the asset rankings he publishes have always been the most accurate.

On the Forbes rich list, the top ten are naturally Shuangma, Lao Wang, and Xu Jiayin.

But the celebrity list is different.

Baidu Encyclopedia's introduction is that the list selects actors, singers, hosts and other celebrities with outstanding performance in their respective fields between July 1 of the previous year and June 30 of this year as candidates, and comprehensively ranks each candidate through multiple dimensions including commercial value and influence of works, and finally becomes the list.

Now, the Forbes China Celebrity List is announced:

TOP1: Hong Chen

Industry: Actor

Annual income: 3.4 billion coins

Ranking in terms of income: 1st

Impact Ranking: No. 1

Overall ranking: 1st

This total ranking deeply stimulated Wang Yao.

Three years ago, Hong Chen was just a B-signed artist under Huahai, and today, three years later, Hong Chen is already a big man, and he has to look up to it.

What is this concept?

"3.4 billion, 3.4 billion, all the artists in Huahai combined, they may not be able to earn 3.4 billion!"

Wang Yao was shocked in his heart.

You must know that a first-line top streamer can earn up to 300 million yuan per year, which refers to the kind of top stream who open a studio, such as Yang Xiaomi, Zhao Xiaohua and the like.

In the Forbes celebrity list of the United States, Taylor Swift, the first with the highest annual income, has an annual income of only 185 million US dollars, which is about 1 billion Chinese dollars.

Of course, Hong Chen's income is so high this year, largely because of his large proportion of box office share, coupled with the global popularity of "The Shawshank Redemption".

In previous years, the revenue was around 500 million to 700 million.

And it is worth mentioning that this year, Hong Chen is on the list of world celebrities, and his annual income is also ranked first.

It's simply a ruthless money-making machine.

There is no way, a movie that is popular around the world, he is still the producer, investor and starring, and the money will naturally roll in.

It can be said that he doesn't make any movies now, and just eating the copyright fees from various countries for "The Shawshank Redemption" is enough to support the company.

It is worth mentioning that he also has to pay a lot of taxes every year.

I have a good relationship with the people in the tax office.

The Forbes China celebrity list has attracted a lot of attention, not to mention people in the entertainment industry, bigwigs in the business world are also paying attention to this list.

Every year, when this list comes out, it causes a sensation.

This year, the same was true.

Everyone had expected that the first place on the Forbes celebrity list would be Hong Chen, but they didn't expect Hong Chen to appear with a posture of completely crushing the second place.

Including HK's side, all Hong Kong stars looked at Hong Chen's annual income, and their jaws dropped in shock.

Especially the famous commercial director Wang Jing, rubbing his eyes, he still doesn't believe that anyone can make more than 3 billion a year by making movies.

That's an exaggeration.

Some friends in the entertainment industry joked with Hong Chen: "Teach me how to make 3 billion a year." ”

Hong Chen could only shrug helplessly, saying that it was lucky.

It can't be said that it depends on the system.

Now Hong Chen's name is getting louder and louder.

Including some articles in the entertainment industry, the names of the media, and the private chats of celebrities, they are all directly called Hongchen Hongye.

Just like the titles of Fa Zai, Xing Ye, and Fa Ge, Hong Chen's title is Hong Ye.

Twenty-something-year-old master, no one is unconvinced.

Things like age and seniority are so unbearable in the face of absolute money.

All kinds of interview appointments are still flocking in.

Too many people want to seek cooperation with Hong Chen.

At the same time, Hong Chen is also choosing a suitable script as his next plan.

He was first reading domestic scripts.

Hong Chen has a very poor vision now, that is, after reading the script, he roughly knows what the results of this drama will look like, and he doesn't even need to use the skill of "script understanding".

His principle is still, when he encounters a good script, he will shoot it. It doesn't matter if it's a big production or a big investment, as long as he's interested.

But there is one thing to say, there are still relatively few good scripts in Huaxia, on the one hand, because there are too many restrictions, many things cannot be filmed, and on the other hand, the screenwriter's thinking creativity is not strong, otherwise it would not be all adaptations now, and there are fewer and fewer original dramas.

"The biggest production is the movie "Heavenly Machine". Ge Chen took out a script and said preciously.

""Heavenly Machine"?" Hearing this name, Hong Chen was still very interested, because this name sounded domineering.

When he got the script and looked at it again, it turned out that the full name of the script was:

"Heavenly Machine: Fuchun Mountain Residence"

It tasted bad in an instant.

If it was just the word "Heavenly Machine", Hong Chen still felt that it would be a blockbuster similar to Taoism and nature, and with a picture of Fuchun Mountain, he felt that there was a feeling of a magical masterpiece unique to China.

"This drama is a lot of big names, especially female stars, there are a lot of them, starring Lin Zhilin and Zhang Jingchu. There are also 12 constellation witches, all of whom are second-tier female stars. Ge Chen explained with a smile.

"Zhang Jingchu?" Hong Chen used to like her very much when she was young, and now in Hong Chen's eyes, Zhang Jing's appearance is also properly in the top ranks.

"The producer of this drama is Feihuang Entertainment, he really hopes that you can star in this movie, the treatment proposed is very tempting, and he also hopes to cooperate with our company. Ge Chen reported sincerely.

Feihuang Entertainment is one of the four major entertainment companies in China, with very strong strength and heritage.

If we can cooperate, it will be a good thing for the company.

It can be said that this movie is an olive branch thrown by Feihuang Company.

But after reading the script, Hong Chen refused directly.

"The plot is too exaggerated, don't shoot. ”

"Okay. Ge Chen nodded and put the script away.

Then, Ge Chen took out the Hollywood script and prepared for Hong Chen to choose.

At this time, Hong Chen's phone rang suddenly.

It was Morgan Freeman who called.

"The Shawshank Redemption" has brought Freeman's popularity to a new level, and the actors in the United States have signed contracts to have a certain share of the box office, so Freeman is very grateful to Hong Chen.

"Hello, Mr. Morgan. Hong Chen picked up the phone and said with a smile.

"Hahaha, Hong Chen, I have made a lot of movies before, and there are many movie hits, but I have never been so popular as I am now. Morgan Freeman said with a smile.

Freeman's performance in "The Shawshank Redemption" also adds a lot of points to the film, and his unpretentious but deeply rooted performance, as well as later voice-over, are an essential part of the film.

"Your performance is so good, it's right to be popular. Hong Chen responded.

"I'll be down to business, I've been getting a lot of scripts lately, and there's one script that I think is very good, and I'm already planning to act in it. There's still a lack of a lead actor, are you coming?" asked Morgan Freeman.

The reason why Morgan Freeman is looking for Hong Chen, on the one hand, is a return, and on the other hand, because Hong Chen's acting skills and performance are indeed very outstanding.

Listen to him, this script is really good.

Hong Chen believed Freeman's vision, so he asked, "What kind of movie?"

"A suspenseful crime movie with high requirements for the leading actors. Freeman said mysteriously.
