Chapter 1135: A Year's Harvest (I)

A year, a full year, just passed quietly!

Since mid-November 2007, Menjie has officially participated in the crew of the movie "The Mummy 3: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" and began to shoot the movie.

Even in order to shoot a movie, even the post-publicity activities of his new album have been ignored, and he has not held any concerts because of the new album "Gentle", which has made countless fans of Menjie extremely regretful.

But Menjie was still working hard after all, and everyone couldn't say anything.

It's not lazy, how can you accuse Menjie of something?

Even, for the filming of the movie, Menjie did not even attend the premiere ceremony of the movie "Casting Names", which was invested by his own company and starring himself!

After that, a day and a half after the movie "The Mummy 3: The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" was just completed, he joined the crew of the movie "Wanted" again and continued to work hard.

Then, finally, in June 2008, after completing the filming of the movie "Wanted", he turned around again and ran to the crew of the movie "Twilight" and became the leading actor.

This film, in November 2008, has been filming movies for a full year, and has created three world-class masterpieces!

This year is definitely a very busy year, but at the same time, it is also a brilliant year for Menjie!

In July 2008, the first of Menjie's three films, "The Mummy 3: The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor", was officially released.

When the movie was released, Menjie was still filming the movie "Twilight". It's a pity that I still don't have the time to participate in the promotion of the movie, but there is no problem. Although there is no publicity from Menjie himself, his celebrity entertainment company has carried out a very enthusiastic promotion in the Asian context for this film.

In the past year, Menjie has achieved great development, and so has its own company.

Needless to say, cooperation with Korean TV dramas. Basically, more than half of the TV dramas in China and South Korea that can rank in the top ten in terms of ratings are all produced by celebrity entertainment companies. Definitely shocking Asia.

KBS TV and Mango TV, basically at the same time period, will have two or three TV dramas, which are produced by celebrity entertainment companies. The collaboration has long been intimate.

Even occasionally. Celebrity Entertainment will also produce some additional TV series, which the two TV stations cannot digest, and will also sell them to other TV stations for cooperation.

Even in Japan, there have been good results, and they have begun to try to cooperate and shoot several TV series.

At this time, the celebrity TV company has become the whole of Asia. A well-deserved No. 1 company, extremely strong!

Music companies are a notch behind. However, in a year's time, he helped all the singers of the company to release an album each, and under the strong musical ability of Menjie and Jay Chou, the singing career of every singer under the company has also risen to a higher level.

The ranking is probably about to be ranked in the top ten in Asia, and the existence of the top three in the entire Chinese is not easy.

The film is the worst developed, but it is already very good.

In 2008, celebrity entertainment companies produced a lot of movies, and even some of them were 'masterpieces', which have set off huge waves in the scope of China!

The first of these is the new work "Do Not Disturb" directed by Feng Xiaogang, the peak director of China, who saw the development and growth of celebrity entertainment companies and finally joined the company.

may be because last year, Menjie participated in the movie "Casting Names", because Menjie used special skills for him, and surpassed Feng Xiaogang's movie "Assembly" with a rather disparity in the box office, which made him depressed.

easily got a box office score of 3600000 yuan, and even because of the breath held in his heart, it was even higher than the original version.

What people didn't expect was that the box office results of this movie were a little higher than the self-esteem production of Huaxia Film Group and the box office results of the movie "Red Cliff (I)", which pressed it to the second place.

This also allows people to see Feng Xiaogang's strength, and how correct it is for Menjie to spend an unknown amount of resources and a huge degree of freedom to sign Feng Xiaogang.

There is only a movie "Painted Skin" created by the celebrity entertainment company itself this year, with a huge investment, which is also a very important work, and even at the beginning, Menjie planned to star in person, but he was too busy to give it up and chose the original cast of this movie to star.

In the end, it won a box office score of 230 million in one fell swoop, becoming the third best work of the year.

The fourth place is still a celebrity entertainment company, but it is a new work of Zhou Xingchi, who has a very good relationship with Menjie, which was jointly created by his own company and celebrity entertainment company, and won a box office result of 200 million.

Later, the script "Anita Mui" obtained from Huaxia Film Group also did not disappoint Menjie, and the box office also exceeded 100 million yuan, and won the ninth place of the year.

What really surprised Menjie was the movie "Slam Dunk" that Jay Chou participated in in his spare time, and the same thing got a horror box office of 140 million, which was better than the original work, but because at this time, with the help of Menjie, his popularity was even higher.

At the same time, in addition to the 'top 10 films of the year in the mainland', celebrity entertainment companies have also produced many other films with great ambitions.

About half of the movies that can really become popular are independently produced by celebrity entertainment companies, but after all, the background of celebrity entertainment companies is not very sufficient, and in order to seize the market and develop as soon as possible, they have also cooperated with many other companies. Shoot a film together.

Although many movies have not been popular, it has to be said that the movies that were selected by celebrity entertainment companies. At least they all made a lot of money!

In the past, it was the people within the celebrity entertainment company who knew that Menjie had an extraordinary vision, which could bring them benefits and honors, and regarded Menjie as a god.

Now, because many companies have cooperated with celebrity entertainment companies, they have gained benefits, and it has greatly publicized this ability of Menjie. Although he is not in the rivers and lakes, his legend is spread everywhere.

That's just a year. has made the celebrity film company grow from a new company that is not well known to one of the largest companies in the entire Chinese film industry, and then cooperate with the energy of the head office. in the context of Asia as a whole. All have a lot of energy.

As long as the movie "Twilight" invested by the United States can become a big hit, and continue to barely enough celebrity film companies, it will be able to become a world-class company and directly and easily dominate Asia, and based on this, it will not take a few years to become one of the world's top film companies.

The combination of movies, TV series, music and other aspects can achieve the status of the world's top entertainment company. Nothing beats the limelight!

Of course, in terms of honors. Celebrity entertainment companies are not bad either!

First of all, Men Jie and Jay Chou have won many King trophies with their two albums, and in terms of music, the albums of other artists under the company are also excellent, with the help of Men Jie and Jay Chou, as well as the help of many famous musicians in the company, while obtaining a lot of album sales, they also won back many trophies of kings and queens, which greatly enriched the company's trophy collection cabinet.

The same is true for film and television, after all, whether it is movies or TV series, celebrity entertainment companies have accounted for half of the top ten lists in China, or even more than half, and naturally won a lot of trophies.

And to Menjie's surprise, Tang Wei's career has also risen here.

Originally, the movie "Lust and Caution" suffered from cold treatment, which temporarily curbed the upward momentum of Tang Wei's career, but after Tang Wei signed a good contract with a company, he was arranged by the other party to make a lot of announcements, and the other party's strength was good, which made Tang Wei's career pick up again, and it was obvious that there was a momentum of rising again.

Menjie's brilliance represents Menjie, but if Tang Wei becomes brilliant, after all, there is only one top-notch movie "Lust and Caution", but anyone who sees her will think of the movie "Lust and Caution".

In this way, it once again drove the movie "Lust and Caution", and there was a hint of raising its head.

In the end, what Jie didn't expect was that it attracted the advent of the 'blocking order', which directly suspended all Tang Wei's performing arts companies in Huaxia, which dealt a huge blow to her.

Even at one time, even Menjie had no contact, and his agency naturally suspended all her work, and after some operation, she saw that there was no way, and even gave up directly.

In the end, it was Menjie who asked Wan Tongtong to make a move, bought her contract directly, and became a member of the celebrity entertainment company!

Of course, Tang Wei was blocked, and even celebrity entertainment companies couldn't help her lift it directly, according to the historical trend, this ban will last until 2010, and there is still a long time.

However, Menjie is also very methodical, directly through the relationship with the partner KBS TV, and won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival with the movie "Lust and Caution", so that Tang Wei's strength has been recognized by countless people, and finally made a movie in South Korea, and it has received quite a huge recognition.

But it was a relief for Menjie.

According to the information in the Tianwang system, after the ban was lifted, Tang Wei also filmed a movie called "Late Autumn" in South Korea, and even won the honor of Korean actress for a time.

Who knows, it's really a success!

In this way, the development of celebrity entertainment companies is absolutely dazzling, and even after people's evaluation, last year, Forbes assessed that the celebrity entertainment company was worth 500 million soft girl coins, and this year, its value has even reached such a figure of 5 billion soft girl coins, and the assets have increased tenfold, which is absolutely priceless.

If it is listed, Huayi Brothers, which surpassed that year, is also very calm, and it is possible to have two or three hundred billion, or even more.

In this way, Menjie's total assets have reached a higher level. It is extremely dazzling and brilliant.

Of course, this is all the added value of Menjie, in fact, he wants to make money. It's a very simple thing for Menjie, and the key is whether Menjie wants to do it or not.

What Menjie really cares about is his own entertainment career.

Finally, in July 2008, Menjie's entertainment career ushered in a real explosion!

The movie "The Mummy 3: The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" was first released on July 28, 2008. It was officially released in Huaxia Xiangjiang.

Then, it was also officially released worldwide on the 31st and the 1st of the following month. The scene was extremely huge.

Of course, there are some countries that are released late, such as Japan, which will be officially released around August 16. It was about half a month later than normal.

Moreover. For example, in Italy, it was a month and a half late before it was officially released.

But no matter what, the movie "The Mummy 3 Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" was also released on September 19, 2008 in all major countries in the world, and in a month and a half, that is, at the beginning of November 2008. Officially underlined.

Completed the Sweep Ritual that circled the World Realm!

The final result is indeed not as good as the total box office result of Benjie's movie "Spartan 300 Warriors" of 542 million US dollars. Even without the help of Menjie's skills, he would have only been able to achieve a global box office total of $3920.3 billion.

This is why Menjie used his skills to directly increase the box office performance of more than 50 million US dollars, and directly promoted the global box office of the movie "The Mummy 3: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" to a figure of 450 million.

is worse than the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", which is nearly 100 million box office.

It seems that no matter what aspect it is, the movie "The Mummy 3: The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" is not as good as Benjie's work "Spartan 300 Warriors", but this is not the case.

In this movie, Menjie's role is not much different from that year, and they are second only to the male protagonist, but in this movie, Menjie also has stronger strength and a more handsome appearance.

Compared with the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", it is not bad at all, and even surpasses!

Finally, after the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", Menjie has another world-class masterpiece, and with Menjie's increasingly deep Asian roots, Menjie has directly become the level of a world-class actor.

Compared with top actors, there is still a difference, but it is not big.

And that's just the beginning!

At the beginning of November 2008, when the movie "The Mummy 3: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" had just finished its global journey, two more works came to this world in an instant.

First, it is naturally one of Menjie's ambitions, and he is ready to develop it into a series of movies "Wanted", and at the same time, it is also called "Assassins League" by more people, and it will be officially released!

It's a little better than the original release time, but it doesn't affect its excellence at all.

It's a very good movie in itself, and after getting the addition of Menjie, who is more suitable for the role of the film's male lead, the movie has become even better.

At the beginning of November, it was also the first to be released in Xiangjiang, and in the following three and a half months, it was also released in various countries in the world.

In terms of Huaxia, because of the review problem, it was ranked the last batch, and three months later, at the beginning of 2009, around the New Year, it was successfully released.

The time was a little late, but it didn't affect Menjie's popularity skyrocketing!

After all, this movie is starring Menjie.

When he played a supporting role, he was able to gain tens of millions of fans in one sentence while receiving double blessings, and starred in such a movie, and when it was released, Menjie also opened the 'Guanzhong Daxia Order' throughout the whole process, doubling the growth rate of his fans and gaining more huge fans.

And the box office results of this movie are quite regrettable, compared with the movie "The Mummy 3: The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor", it is still a little worse.

However, it also achieved a global box office score of more than 350 million US dollars, and with the help of Menjie, because of the larger fans, it eventually increased the total global box office by 70 million US dollars again.

The box office performance of the movie "League of Assassins" broke through the 400 million mark in one fell swoop, reaching a figure of 420 million.

Although it is not as good as the movie "The Mummy 3: The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor", with an investment of 75 million US dollars, it has obtained a box office result of 420 million US dollars, and all kinds of gains are superimposed, which is definitely more than 200 million.

A movie, with a fortune of more than 200 million, what is there to be dissatisfied with?

was worried about finding an Asian star as the leading actor, worried that the audience wouldn't buy it, but in the end, it turned out that without Menjie's popularity, the film would not have been able to achieve such results.

Even after some investigation, more than seventy percent of the people who will choose the leading actor in the future movie "League of Assassins 2" said that they hope that Menjie can continue to star.

Even among the people who participated in this vote, more than forty percent of them said that if the actor of the movie "League of Assassins 2" was not Menjie, then they would have simply given up the movie and stopped watching it!

Such statistics frightened Universal Entertainment.

You must know that if there are two out of ten people who will say 'if you change the actor and don't watch the movie', usually if the actor is changed, then the performance of the second movie will drop a lot, which is a market in Hollywood for many years.

Not to mention that forty percent of people have this attitude of supporting the door!

Naturally, such a result made Universal Films directly increase the salary countless times, and invited Menjie to participate in the filming of the future movie "League of Assassins 2", which is definitely a huge salary second only to the Oscar winner! (To be continued......)
