And the truth is similar to Chen Qiming's expectations.

Because the original film of Adventure King was burned, the remake version is not as good as the original after all.

This led to the fact that the word-of-mouth of the film was not very good after its release.

Even if Chen Qiming helped in the promotion, Jet Li and Takeshi Kaneshiro starred, the heroines were Guan Zhilin and Yang Caini, who had been relatively popular in the past two years.

But the box office of the film was still not satisfactory.

The movie was released for a week and only got three to four million at the box office.

The unsatisfactory box office has caused Jet Li to be questioned a lot.

Many media are preaching that Jet Li is on the downhill road, and there is no audience to buy him.

However, although the overall box office of Adventure King is unsatisfactory, according to the prediction, the final box office of this film may only be about 10 million Hong Kong dollars.

But this still has little impact on Qiming Film and Television and Yongsheng.

Because this film is still making money at the moment.

After all, it is Jet Li, and his appeal in Asia is very good.

There are his fans in places like Treasure Island, South Korea, and even Thailand.

Therefore, even if the box office of the film in the first week was not satisfactory, a large number of studios still approached them, hoping to get the distribution rights of the film in their respective regions.

It is worth mentioning here.

In fact, Jet Li's own box office in Hong Kong has not been very high.

He has never won the first place in the box office list of Hong Kong movies.

The top five are very few.

His films have always grossed five to fifteen, and sometimes even in Hong Kong, they may be in the mid-twenties.

But with such an achievement, Jet Li is still the most appealing superstar in Hong Kong.

Why?

The reason, of course, depends on the income of other regions.

Jet Li's movies, even if the box office in Hong Kong is only worth 10 million, but in other regions, the box office will miraculously increase several times.

Just like last year's "Jingwu Heroes" and "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard", the box office of these films is not too high in Hong Kong.

However, it is very high in places such as Korea and Treasure Island.

It is also this peculiar phenomenon that makes the King of Adventures not good at the box office after its release in Hong Kong, but the foreign copyright is selling very well.

The adventure king has not yet been released here, and a large number of filmmakers have come to the door to buy this film.

Chen Qiming did not help promote the adventure king every day.

This film was invested in cooperation with Yongsheng.

It's not his own investment, so he doesn't need to help promote it every day.

After two days of helping to promote the project, he stopped paying attention to the project and began to focus on other things on his own.

As 1996 drew to a close.

Major awards began to be presented one after another.

This year's Chen Qiming is as hot as ever, and he naturally can't defect these awards.

First of all, the top ten idols of Treasure Island are awarded.

This year, he once again won the first place in the top ten idols by a landslide.

This is the fifth time he has won the top ten idols, and at the same time, he is also the fourth time he has won the top ten idols.

Since the establishment of the Top Ten Idols award, in addition to the first vote king Andy Lau, in the following sessions, he won the first place with overwhelming votes every year.

Because he has always won the first place, Andy Lau has been second for four consecutive years.

The media also jokingly called Andy Lau the second in the millennium, which made Andy Lau call Chen Qiming more than once to complain.

In the top ten idol awards in the first two years, Chen Qiming was absent twice for various reasons.

This time, he happened to be free, and China Television strongly asked him to attend, so he did not refuse and attended the award on the 25th.

I haven't come to this award for two consecutive years, and the candidates for the top ten idols have changed a lot.

The so-called generations of talented people have come out, each leading the way for hundreds of years, and it is the entertainment industry!

Dawn and Aaron Kwok and Takeshi Kaneshiro, who have been on the list in a row in previous years, have all been squeezed off the list by newcomers this year.

Ekin Cheng, Du Dewei, Chung Hanliang, Su Huilun, Zhang Weijian.

Except for Du Dewei, who is an old man, everyone else has only become popular in the past two years.

Especially Ekin Cheng and Chung Hon-leung.

One of the two relies on Wang Jing's Crazy Boy movie series, and the other relies on the release of records.

Among them, Ekin Cheng should be the most popular.

Because Chen Qiming finally gave the copyright of the old boy to Wang Jing.

In the end, he relied on the corner of Chen Haonan in the old boy to become popular all over the country.

In this year's entertainment industry.

He was the most popular, and the media even advertised that he could overthrow Chen Qiming and the rule of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Whether the Four Heavenly Kings can be overthrown by him Chen Qiming doesn't know.

But in his own words, Chen Qiming felt that he still had to work hard.

His popularity is now at the level of Asia.

None of the Four Heavenly Kings alone could compare to him, and they had to be two or three together to overpower him.

And although Ekin Cheng became popular with the movie, his popularity is very high.

But at present, he has a certain gap compared to Aaron Kwok, who is the least popular among the four heavenly kings.

Not to mention Chen Qiming.

really want to compare with Chen Qiming, and ensure that he can't recognize his mother by dividing five by two.

Because it was the first time in two years to attend this award, Chen Qiming directly detonated the audience when he appeared outside the awards stadium.

As soon as he appeared, the audience all stood up and shouted his name in unison, "Chen Qiming..."

"Ahhh......h

The scene was very hot, and a large number of fans shouted frantically because of Chen Qiming's appearance, which made the whole scene enter the most intense carnival.

Chen Qiming waved to the fans and quickly entered the venue.

He was the last to enter.

By the time we got backstage, all the other inductees from this year had arrived.

Wu Qilong, Lin Zhiying, Sun Yaowei, Ekin Cheng, Zhang Weijian, Zhong Hanliang......

Andy Lau is not there, "Lone Agent" is about to be released in the United States, and large-scale publicity has begun, and he is now in the United States.

So he didn't show up today.

As soon as Chen Qiming entered the backstage, several people who were originally sitting on the sofa waiting for the award all stood up.

"Brother Qiming!"

"Ming Tsai!"

Sun Yaowei and Zhang Weijian took the lead in coming over.

One of the two was Chen Qiming's younger brother and worked together in Fulong Company.

One is a friend Chen Qiming met when he debuted.

Then, Wu Qilong and Ekin Cheng also came over to greet Chen Qiming.

Wu Qilong and Chen Qiming formed the four idol kings together in the past few years, and they have attended many shows together, so they are also familiar.

As for Ekin Cheng.

He is an actor under Wang Jing, and Wang Jing's best partner company is hung in Pacific Cinemas.

Therefore, he also had contact with Chen Qiming.

So when I saw Chen Qiming, I also quickly came over to say hello.

Seeing that Wu Qilong, Sun Yaowei and others had come to say hello, others also hurried over to say hello and have a relationship with Chen Qiming.

Only Lin Zhiying just glanced up at Chen Qiming, and then lowered her head again, as if she didn't see Chen Qiming.

Lin Zhiying and Chen Qiming had some unhappiness when they debuted.

So the relationship between the two has not been very good, and they are strangers when they attend the show.

Chen Qiming didn't care about Lin Zhiying's ignorance of himself.

He is not a banknote, and it is impossible for everyone to love him.

It's normal for someone to dislike him.

"You are Zhong Hanliang! Brother Zhengxiao mentioned you to me! ”

Chen Qiming smiled and greeted the handsome man in front of him who was as old as himself, but seemed a little introverted.

"Brother Qiming!" Zhong Hanliang was a little flattered.

From the perspective of later generations, Zhong Hanliang seems to have no sense of existence in the nineties.

But that's from the perspective of posterity.

In fact, in reality, Zhong Hanliang has been very popular in the past two years.

Last year, in 1995, he was discovered by musician Tai Zhengxiao and signed a contract with Yineng Motion Records and Baodao Ai & Cheng Creative Production.

Immediately released the first Chinese album "OREA" on Treasure Island in July last year.

The title songs of the album such as "OREA" and "Is It Love or Hurt" entered the music scene of Treasure Island.

The album was an instant hit when it was released.

With his excellent appearance and good dancing skills, he quickly occupied a place in the music scene of Treasure Island.

In December last year, he released his second Chinese album "By Your Side", and became one of the most popular Hong Kong male singers of Taiwan's new generation with the title of "Little Sun", and his popularity is comparable to Sun Yaowei.

He is one of the most promising singers in the new generation of Hong Kong music in the past two years.

Plus this year, he has been selected as one of the top ten idols for two consecutive years, and his ranking is not low.

He is one of the favorite idol singers of young people.

"I talked to Brother Zhengxiao a few times, and he said that you are one of the most potential people in the past few years.

I've heard your songs too, and that "Orea" is really good, and I like it very much.

Your dancing is also very good! ”

Chen Qiming praised.

"Thank you, Brother Qiming, I will continue to work hard!" Zhong Hanliang looked very restrained.

Not only him, Chen Qiming found that other people seemed to be very restrained when talking to him.

Seeing this, Chen Qiming's original desire to talk to these peers also faded.

That's the way a singer or actor works.

If not particularly good friends.

If there is a change in status, it will become strange for each of them to get along with each other.

Chen Qiming is now the person with the highest record and box office accumulation in Asia, and he is still the person who is popular all over the world and is compared to Michael Jackson.

The status outnumbered them too much to a certain extent.

The status is not equal, and after chatting, they seem to be restrained, as if they are afraid of Chen Qiming.

didn't continue to talk to everyone, Chen Qiming didn't continue to stay in this lounge, but asked the staff to take him to the next lounge to wait.

Since it's tied, let's just stop talking.

Anyway, Chen Qiming is used to it.

When he came to a private lounge, Chen Qiming didn't sit for a while, and a person in charge of the organizer of China Television came to him in person and asked him about his various needs.

Chen Qiming is not the kind of delicate person, and he didn't embarrass him, so he casually asked him for a cup of tea and sent him away.

Ten minutes later, the award ceremony began.

The awards were presented as in the previous editions, starting from 10th place, interspersed with a number of other awards.

About an hour or so later, the award came to an end, and Chen Qiming's award was about to be awarded.

"Next, I would like to invite Ms. Ge Fuhong to award us the top ten idol ......"

The host's voice is transmitted through the microphone to the backstage.

Chen Qiming stood thoughtfully in the exit passage.

Before coming, the organizer did not inform him that his guest of honor was Ge Fuhong.

Since he left Fulong Company and took Liu Ciwei with him.

Although his relationship with Ge Fuhong did not collapse directly, it gradually became strangers.

In the past two years, the two have met on many occasions, but they have hardly spoken to each other.

He didn't quite understand how Ge Fuhong would accept the invitation of the organizer to be his award presenter this time.

However, it is useless to think too much.

Just then, Ge Fuhong outside read his name, he straightened his collar and walked quickly to the stage.

"Chen Qiming......"

"Ahh......h

"Ah......h

The fans at the scene were as hot as ever, and there were more voices than the previous appearances combined.

"It's so popular!"

"Alas! I don't know when I'll be so popular! ”

Backstage, Zhong Hanliang and Sun Yaowei sat together.

Both of them are from Hong Kong, and they are almost the same age, known as the Hong Kong twin stars.

He is the most watched singer newcomer in Hong Kong in the past two years.

As a result, the two often attend events together.

This has come and gone, and the relationship between the two is very good.

"It's difficult, I heard my agent Sister Ge say that a singer like Chen Qiming may not be found in the next few years.

He is too unique, he can sing, perform and create, and his appearance is not weak, he is simply omnipotent.

In the entire Chinese music scene, I am afraid that I will not be able to find one in ten years with an existence like him. ”

Sun Yaowei shook his head and said.

"It's a pity, if he doesn't quit Fulong, with him, your development may be faster!" Zhong Hanliang sighed.

It's no wonder he thinks so.

It can be said that almost all of Hong Kong and Taiwan counterparts have similar thoughts to Zhong Hanliang, thinking that if Chen Qiming does not withdraw from Fulong, the development of Sun Yaowei and Takeshi Kaneshiro may usher in a big explosion.

After all, Chen Qiming's creative talent is there.

As long as he writes one or two songs for Sun Yaowei and Takeshi Kaneshiro, he can basically make the two of them go to the next level.

Pity......

"It is inevitable that he will part with Fulong, the water will flow to the lower places, and the people will go to the higher places.

With his popularity and influence, it would be strange if he stayed in Fulong all the time. ”

Sun Yaowei sighed, and then said: "If you want to write a song, Sister Ge said it, and she will help contact him."

For Sister Ge's sake, he should write a poem for me. ”

"That's it!"

Hearing this, Zhong Hanliang suddenly showed envy.

He was really envious.

Don't look at him as popular, but in fact, he doesn't have any masterpieces.

In the past two years, three records have been released, and the sales of records have been very good, which has made the company a lot of money.

And it made him attract a lot of young fans.

However, from the perspective of works, he really has no works.

He is actually a little better than Takeshi Kaneshiro at the beginning.

At the beginning, Takeshi Kaneshiro was purely hard and popular, but he had some songs that were more popular with fans.

Although these songs are not classics.

"Whether it succeeds or not, I hope Sister Ge can succeed!

If I don't have a good piece, I probably won't be able to continue to mix in the music scene.

At that time, the company may have to arrange for me to act on TV. ”
