As of Christmas Eve on December 24, the box office of "District 9" in Chinese mainland came to 320 million, exceeding the box office performance of "Harry Potter" of 170 million, only ranking second after "Transformers 2" and ranking second in the annual box office.

The cumulative box office in Asia has exceeded the 400 million mark, and South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong and other places have contributed tens of millions of box office results.

Sony also held a celebration party in Los Angeles, and there was no doubt that Shen Lian, as the leading actor, had to be there.

Peter Jackson, who single-handedly discovered him, would also appear at the celebration party.

Shen Lian went to Hollywood this time, and the task was very heavy. Attending the celebration of "District 9" is only one of the characters, and the negotiation of a large endorsement contract and the pursuit of the next Hollywood film are also his goals.

Ray-Ban sunglasses made an offer for Shen Lian before.

The high box office performance of "District 9" in China and throughout Asia is staggering, with the overseas box office performance of more than $55 million so far far far far from experts and filmmakers and this qiē, in addition to the credit of the script, the bold choice of the lead actor is also very important, and Shen Lian's high popularity in China has also made him favored by advertisers.

After all, Shen Lian's current price is much lower than that of a real Hollywood superstar, but the potential is much greater, and there is an entire Chinese consumer group behind him.

The specific details of Shen Lian need to wait for a professional lawyer to review the contract several times before it is convenient to sign the contract, but there is definitely no problem in reaching intentional cooperation. After terminating the sponsorship contracts with Pepsi, Mentholatum and Lukfook Jewellery one after another, Ray-Ban, an international famous brand, also became the main sponsor of Shen Lian.

So far, Shen Lian's main sponsors have been HUGOBOSS, Audi, Ray-Ban sunglasses, NB four major international brands. Endorsed brands include Pringles Chips, Nikon Cameras, Rio Cocktails, and Evian Mineral Water.

At the point where Shen Lian is now, it can be said that he is not bad for money, if he wants money, a large number of advertisers will flock to him. However, Zhang Ting and Shen Lian are very strict about endorsements, do not endorse fake products, nor endorse products that do not conform to their own image, and stay away from products that are too low-end.

The endorsements on his body, each endorsement is the top of the industry.

Shen Lian turned his head to look at the speeding road outside the window, the night scene of Hollywood was exceptionally beautiful, it looked bright and brilliant, but in fact it was dark and dirty. But in such a place, countless people rush to come one after another every year, wanting to become famous and profit.

In Hollywood, miracles can happen every day.

The car stopped in front of the hotel that Sony had set, and Shen Lian and his party rushed in. "District 9" has made Sony a lot of money, so naturally it will not treat the actor Shen Lian in these aspects.

For the sequel in the future, Shen Lian is almost the best choice.

After everything was settled, Shen Lian was about to take a shower when there was a knock on the door.

"I knew you were there!" Neil, who had a happy face, wore a wide down jacket and a clear smile on his face.

"Haha. Long time no see. Neil. How was the script for the sequel done? Shen Lian joked, he also knew that the sequel to "District Nine" would not be launched for at least five years.

The first part was too perfect. The www.biquge.info of the whole script is too high, and even if you don't do a good job in the next detail, it can only be a dog's tail and a mink.

Whether it is Neil or Shen Lian, they don't want "District 9", which has poured countless efforts, to simply become an IP that makes money.

It's not that you don't shoot, you must shoot it, and you have to shoot it very well, at least, at least it's better than the "Terminator" series, which is also a sci-fi theme. This is the ambition of Shen Lian and Neil.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is time for the celebration banquet, which is also held at the Hilton Hotel, this time it is just a small drinking party, and the reporters can only take a few clips, and the place where the reception is really held is very tightly guarded, and it is impossible to sneak in.

A movie with an investment of only $30 million has earned so much, how can those real money-burning blockbusters be embarrassed? However, this box office is obviously very satisfied, and if nothing else, the next sequel to the "District 9" series will be a blockbuster that is not inferior to any superhero series.

In the Oscar nomination list announced next, as long as the Oscar judges do not have brain cramps, there is no problem for "District 9" to enter the nomination list, and Shen Lian is also very hopeful of entering the final five lists of Best Actor.

The doorman helped Shen Lian and Neil push open the glass door of the banquet hall, and Shen Lian immediately smelled a mixture of champagne and roses. At this time, there were already many people in the banquet hall. The lights are bright, the warblers are swallowing, the skirts are flying, and the diamonds are dazzling, this is a world that some people can't enter in their lifetime.

Among them, there are blacks, whites, many movie stars with an impression of Shen Lian, and some celebrities who only appear in various magazines.

Quite a large-scale pie! Shen Lian came to a conclusion.

Shen Lian was not good at this kind of school, but he had to try his best to blend in. In China, Zhang Ting can help him solve 80% of social gatherings, but in the United States, he is the only one who participates one by one to accumulate his own contacts. Most of them have formed their own small circles, holding wine glasses and chatting with each other, he has never dealt with these people, and when he runs over, people may not pay attention.

Closely behind Neil, the two of them each took a glass of wine from the waiter.

However, in fact, when Shen Lian and Neil entered the banquet hall, they still attracted the attention of most people.

There are not only successful people in the banquet hall, but also frustrated people who try their best to sneak in and save their sense of zài in front of some big directors or big bosses.

Shen Lian, before "The Ninth District", was nothing in North America except for the Chinese gathering area or some small fame. Even when his photo is placed in the façade of the Hugoboss flagship store, no one will deliberately pay attention to the signature in the lower right corner.

However, it is such a yellow-skinned Asian who has become a popular fried chicken in Hollywood and the darling of advertisers with a "District 9".

The gaze cast on Shen Lian was jealousy, envy, appreciation, and admiration......

Of course, at an upper-class gathering like this, everyone knows how to be measured, and the eyes cast on Neil and Shen Lian gradually dispersed, and everyone went to do their own things again.

In this kind of pie, there are also some intrigues, men don't want to let other men become the focus of this pie, and women should also pay attention to their celebrity demeanor, it's rude to stare at others.
