Chen Qiming's car stopped not long after driving in Xi'an City.

Chen Qiming personally got out of the car and stopped a van behind.

knocked on the car door and glanced at the digital camera in the hand of the co-pilot, Chen Qiming took out a pack of unopened cigarettes, handed one to several people in the car, and then asked:

"Where are you going to get a job?"

Ma Daheng took the cigarette and showed a flattering smile: "Ming Zai, we are from Next Weekly." ”

Hearing that it was someone from Next Magazine, Chen Qiming suddenly frowned.

If there is any newspaper in Asia that he hates the most, it is definitely Next Magazine.

Unlike other newspapers, which formalize their reporting, Next Magazine has a reputation for having no bottom line.

A lot of Chen Qiming's personal scandals come from Next Magazine.

"Don't follow me, go have a good meal! I please, you won't be able to photograph anything of me today. ”

Although he didn't like Next Magazine, Chen Qiming still took out a few hundred yuan and asked a few reporters not to follow him.

Ma Daheng glanced at the others, Ma Daheng took the money with a smile, "Since Ming Zai said so, we will definitely give you face, and we will leave immediately." ”

Hearing this, Chen Qiming nodded, chatted with Ma Daheng in a kind tone, and then returned to his car.

The car started again.

It's just that after only two minutes of walking, Chen Qiming couldn't help frowning.

The van was still following him.

Li Xiaowen glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, "Do you need to warn them again?" ”

"No need, they can follow if they want, you call the police, call the police directly, and say that you suspect that someone wants to kidnap me." Chen Qiming said directly.

"This ......" Li Xiaowen was suddenly shocked, "Wouldn't this be bad, after all, it's a reporter." ”

"There's nothing bad about it, I've already warned them, and they still want to follow, so I can only suspect that they have ulterior motives."

Chen Qiming was not interested in Next Magazine.

Now, the other party is receiving his money, and he has promised that he will not continue to follow the film, but he has broken his promise.

Then he can naturally be polite.

After listening to Chen Qiming's words, Li Xiaowen didn't continue to say more, and directly called the local police, saying that he suspected that there were criminals plotting against Chen Qiming.

Who is Chen Qiming?

International superstar.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chen Qiming is now a signboard of China in the world.

No matter where he goes in China, he will receive a certain amount of special treatment.

The same is true in Xi'an.

So, in less than ten minutes, several police cars rushed over.

The police car stopped next to Chen Qiming's car first, and after Li Xiaowen pointed to the van behind him, several policemen walked over directly.

First, several people were asked to take out their driver's licenses and ID cards......

Chen Qiming glanced through the rearview mirror and saw that several reporters were asked to get out of the car for inspection, so he ignored it, and after greeting the police officer, he drove away directly.

He wasn't interested in what happened to the next few reporters.

But come to think of it, they probably won't be able to disturb themselves for the next few days.

Even if the other party's documents are complete, it is useless to have a press card.

This is because Hong Kong's press card will not work in the mainland during this period.

If they want to cover news in the mainland, they need the approval of the mainland's propaganda department and go through the relevant procedures.

Interviewing directly on the mainland would be considered illegal.

Chen Qiming didn't believe that those guys from Next Magazine could get the formalities.

So, in the next few days, they will most likely be detained.

got rid of the reporter, Chen Qiming finally returned to the hotel where he lived smoothly.

I went back to my room, washed up, and the time came to eight o'clock.

Mr. Chen punctually began a conference call with the team he authorized to buy ATV.

The main content of this conference call is also the issue of quotations from ATV.

At present, Chen Qiming's main target is still the shares owned by the Lin family.

However, although the Lin family was detained because Lin Baixin was involved in a land case, his family wanted to sell ATV's shares.

But the Lin family did not plan to sell all the shares in their hands.

The Lin family was only willing to sell 25 percent of the shares, asking for HK$310 million.

Chen Qiming is quite satisfied with the price.

But he wasn't happy with getting only 25 percent of the shares.

Although 25 percent can already become the majority shareholder of ATV, it is not guaranteed.

Therefore, in the conference call, Chen Qiming asked the acquisition team to contact other shareholders as much as possible to buy as many shares as possible in their hands.

Chen Qiming has no doubts about whether he can get more shares.

The Lin family, a powerful family, chose to sell their shares at this time, and even if the other shareholders were not affected by the Lin Baixin incident, they were more or less affected by the economic crisis.

Therefore, as long as you have money, it is not very difficult to get more ATV shares.

January 1, 1998, New Year's Day.

Just as the whole of China is celebrating the beginning of the new year.

The news that Chen Qiming bought 40% of ATV's shares for 490 million Hong Kong dollars, becoming the largest shareholder of ATV and the new chairman swept through Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Obviously, in this period of economic depression, Chen Qiming once again became the focus of people with his strength.

Oriental Daily headline: "In six years, six years, Chen Qiming has gone from a poor boy selling cassette tapes on the street to the hottest new rich man in Hong Kong and Taiwan, worth billions of Hong Kong dollars."

Why can Chen Qiming do this? ”

On the cover of New Era Weekly, Chen Qiming once again became the cover character: "With the rise of the grassroots, Chen Qiming has become the most important member of Hong Kong and Taiwan with his talent, keen business vision, and strong influence." ”

Ming Pao: "ATV ushered in a new round of purge, and Chen Qiming became the largest shareholder. ”

Baodao Daily: "Chen Qiming acquired 40% of ATV's shares for 490 million yuan and became a major shareholder.

At present, he also owns Pacific Entertainment Group, the largest entertainment company in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

ATV's acquisition indicates that Chen Qiming has become a new force in the Asian entertainment industry.

He will become a presence that cannot be ignored by all people in the entertainment industry, whether it is in the music industry, the film industry or the television industry, he has become a first-class big name. ”

At the same time as the good news came from Hong Kong.

The United States also sent Chen Qiming good news.

Two weeks ago, on December 19th, the movie "Titanic", jointly invested and distributed by Chen Qiming Film and Television and Twentieth Century Fox, was officially released in North America.

The film grossed $8 million in North America on its first day of release, and although it won the single-day title, it didn't look too outstanding.

But in the days that followed, with the overwhelming publicity of Fox, the film became more and more courageous, and the box office growth rate increased higher day by day.

After 12 days of release, it won the single-day box office championship in North America for 12 consecutive days, and a total of 120 million US dollars at the horror box office.

And that's not the end of it.

Because according to the box office trend, the box office of this film will not enter a downward trend in the following days.

In just 12 days, it won 124 million US dollars.

Judging from this data, even people who don't understand movies know that this movie, which claims to have invested more than 200 million US dollars, has been successful.

Film critics in North America have made various analyses and evaluations of this romantic movie that began to become popular in North America.

Among them is the mention of Chen Qiming.

According to the predictions of forecasting agencies, the final box office of this "Titanic" in North America will not be less than 300 million US dollars.

In the critics' statement, Chen Qiming may have provided the film with a box office increase of no less than 30 million to 50 million US dollars.

The reason why I say this is because the reason why "Titanic" can quickly become popular is indispensable to promote it with the help of Chen Qiming's "My Heart is Eternal".

In order to distinguish Chen Qiming's version of "My Heart is Eternal", James Cameron chose Canadian singer Celine Dion to sing the film version of the song.

And the cover song inevitably has to use the original song to hype.

This is the case with Celine Dion's version of "My Heart Is Eternal".

Where this song was released, it frequently relied on Chen Qiming's fame.

has the fame bonus of Chen Qiming's original singer, and the female version is also very classic.

So as soon as this song was released, it directly hit the billboard and ranked in the top ten.

The popularity of the song again naturally made the movie receive a lot of attention.

Many fans of Chen Qiming were very interested in this romance film in which Chen Qiming made a cameo, so they walked into the theater in droves.

In the previous life in the dream, the main reason for the success of "Titanic" was the good use of marketing methods.

In reality, Fox's marketing methods only started after the movie was released and saw a word-of-mouth explosion.

And the first day of eight million dollars, that is almost entirely driven by the fame of Cameron and Chen Qiming.

After the release of "Titanic", although Chen Qiming has not been in the United States, he also sent representatives to supervise the box office distribution of the film and various releases.

Even, in order to prevent Fox from doing things, Chen Qiming also entrusted Warner Bros. to help supervise.

The reason why this is the case is also something that cannot be helped.

"Titanic" was too profitable.

It has only been released for more than ten days, and the box office of this movie has exploded.

Fox is not stupid, such a big profit, they can't share it for nothing.

A large company like Fox has a lot of means for profit.

If he relied on himself, Chen Qiming didn't dare to guarantee that he could beat Fox.

Therefore, asking Warner to help is the best way for Chen Qiming.

Of course, Warner Bros. certainly can't help Chen Qiming in vain.

In order to prevent them from being perfunctory, Chen Qiming even promised that five years later, the North American copyright of "Titanic" he owned could be given to Warner Bros. for free.

With such a big interest, Warner Bros. will naturally choose to do its best to help Chen Qiming, not letting Fox steal the box office, or make fake accounts.

In mid-January, all the MVs of Chen Qiming's songs were filmed.

Chen Qiming said goodbye to the reluctant daughters, returned to the starting point of the record, and began to do post-production for the MV.

At the same time, it also began to prepare for this year's CCTV Spring Festival Gala.

As early as July, when Hong Kong returned to China, Chen Qiming was invited to attend this year's Spring Festival Gala.

At that time, this year's chief director Meng Xin hoped that Chen Qiming could bring a new original work to the party.

So, in September, when recording a new record, Chen Qiming sent him a song.

No, the song was sent and passed.

"Meet Ninety-Eight".

This is the song that Chen Qiming sent in the past.

Originally, this song was originally sung by Faye Wong and Na Ying in the dream, but Chen Qiming didn't want to copy the whole song because the style didn't match well.

But who made Faye Wong's relationship with him deteriorate.

So, don't copy her.

"Meet Ninety-Eight" is not sung by Chen Qiming alone.

He invited Ye Qianwen to sing with him.

After listening to the tune of this song, Ye Qianwen almost didn't hesitate, and agreed directly.

January 27, Chinese New Year's Eve.

That night, Chen Qiming attended the most grand Spring Festival Gala in recent years.

At the same time as Ye Qianwen, he took the stage and sang "Meet Ninety-Eight".

With Chen Qiming's popularity and the popularity of this song.

Without a doubt, the song became one of the best performances of the night.

One of the reasons why I say it is because there are too many outstanding singing programs at this year's Spring Festival Gala.

For example, Li Guangxi, Li Guyi, and Zhang Ye sang "Into the New Era" together.

For example, Han Lei's "Walking in All Directions".

For example, Huofeng's "Big Flower Sedan Chair".

For example, Tu Honggang, Hang Tianqi, Fu Yubin, Deng Yaping, and Wang Tao sang "True Heroes" together.

For example, Mao Ning, Andy Lau, and Zhang Xinzhe sang "Great China" together.

For example, the theme song of this year's popular TV series "Water Margin" is "Song of a Good Man".

A large number of golden songs that can be passed on to the world directly appeared in this year's Spring Festival Gala.

Therefore, even if Chen Qiming's "Meet Ninety-Eight" is very outstanding, it cannot be called the hottest song this year, it can only be called one of them.

But even so, "Meet Ninety-Eight" is still very popular.

After the Spring Festival Gala ended, this song quickly became popular all over the country and became one of the hottest songs.

There is no ambiguity on the starting point record, and this song is very hot.

Before the end of the year, he directly launched a Chen Qiming collection album with the title of "Meet Ninety-Eight".

This album contains a total of 31 golden songs from Chen Qiming's previous songs.

Including songs such as "The Heart Is Too Soft", "Sad Pacific", "Fairy Tale", "The Past Follows the Wind", "Trouble Caused by the Moon", "Friends", "Chinese", "Meteor Shower", "Dark Fragrance" and so on.

Chen Qiming rarely publishes anthologies.

He has always felt that the collection is suspected of being a money-trap.

So it's been very rare.

Therefore, this time, when the compilation album containing his past hits was released, it directly ushered in a wave of sales.

Rarely, Chen Qiming actually directly parachuted into the Asian sales list of the week with a selection album.

170,000 a week.

Terrifying!

It's terrifying!

This is the exclamation of all peers who see this sales figure.

Obviously, Chen Qiming has created another miracle that is difficult for ordinary people to do.

This compilation also proves once again that Chen Qiming is the first person in the current Chinese music scene......
