Starting from joining Tencent Video

Chapter 150 Premiere Ceremony, Envy

The premiere of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" was held at UME Cinema.

This is a long-established five-star cinema in Yanjing, and many movie premieres are held here.

Chen Jingyuan was alone, following Bai Lu as she put on makeup.

On more important occasions, Chen Jingyuan usually pays attention to his appearance.

He doesn't care about his image, but Chen Jingyuan definitely wants to clean up his act.

He was basically just tagging along with the makeup team, so of course the makeup artists wouldn't have a problem with that.

The makeup artists at Lan Ke Studio naturally knew Chen Jingyuan's identity; they knew he was the powerful figure behind the studio.

"Xiao Bai, how have you been lately!?"

While applying makeup, Chen Jingyuan inevitably inquired about Bai Lu's recent situation.

After filming wrapped on "Hello Mr. Billionaire," the two chatted less on WeChat.

We usually chat a few times a day, which isn't much.

Bai Lu was not in Yanjing before, but was participating in a program promotion with the entire cast and crew of "Hello Mr. Billionaire".

I didn't get back to Yanjing until my daytime flight; my schedule was quite full.

"Brother Chen, you've got quite a few things planned lately."

"I've received quite a few endorsement offers, but now it all depends on the film's performance."

...

Bai Lu's face showed some worry as she spoke.

"The Eternal Love" is currently airing and her popularity is growing very rapidly.

Needless to say, they've received invitations to variety shows and endorsements.

After some consideration, Bai Lu decided to wait for the results of "Hello Mr. Billionaire".

Given the phenomenal success of her film, her appearance fees for television appearances and endorsements would undoubtedly rise to a new level.

Her choice still carries considerable risks, and there are bound to be many concerns.

Fortunately, she still had a lot of trust in Chen Jingyuan and thought that "Hello Mr. Billionaire" should do well.

"I believe the quality of the film will not disappoint you."

Chen Jingyuan spoke slowly, clearly agreeing with Bai Lu's choice.

After hearing Chen Jingyuan's words, Bai Lu felt much more at ease.

This involves at least tens of millions of dollars in interests, and even the White Dew season cannot escape this fate.

As time went by, Chen Jingyuan went into the movie theater first.

As for White Dew, it requires walking the red carpet!

Given the fierce competition between the two internet giants' film projects, a red carpet ceremony was definitely unavoidable.

Both sides will definitely hold events; if you don't, you'll be at a disadvantage.

As soon as Chen Jingyuan entered the movie theater, he saw his mother, Liu Yulan, talking with people from Kaixin Mahua (a type of fried dough twist).

I walked straight over!

"Mr. Chen!"

"Mr. Chen!"

...

Along the way, many staff members greeted Chen Jingyuan.

After a brief exchange with Kaixin Mahua and others, these people wisely left some space for the mother and son.

Liu Yulan also just rushed back today, coming directly to the premiere ceremony as soon as she got off the plane.

She didn't just stay at Hangzhou Electronic Science and Technology College before; she also visited nearby media and arts universities.

Unfortunately, none of them caught Liu Yulan's eye.

Today, they first returned to Hangzhou, bringing Zhang Ruonan and Xu Jing with them, and then came directly to Yanjing together.

This was something Liu Yulan had promised beforehand, to let Zhang Ruonan broaden his horizons first.

As for Xu Jing, it was simply to express her gratitude when Zhang Ruonan signed with the studio.

Xu Jing, her best friend, offered a lot of advice, and Liu Yulan directly invited them to join her.

All expenses were covered by Lanco Studio.

Xu Jing happily agreed, after all, she was very willing to go to Yanjing for tourism and see celebrities without paying for it herself.

Zhang Ruonan was equally happy; it was her first time visiting Yanjing and it was nice to have her best friend accompany her.

"Let me introduce Zhang Ruonan and the other person to you first."

"I already brought him in and arranged for him to sit in the back."

Liu Yulan first talked about the situation over this period of time, and then focused on introducing Zhang Ruonan.

"OK!"

Chen Jingyuan naturally wouldn't refuse his mother's words.

Following his mother's gaze, Chen Jingyuan had already noticed Zhang Ruonan and the other person.

At this moment, the two of them hunched their necks and quietly looked around.

The two of them are basically amateurs, with Zhang Ruonan being a semi-amateur because of her work as an e-commerce model.

It's normal to feel a bit nervous in such a situation.

Those who can walk into the movie theater at this time are all of high status; they are either celebrities or people with considerable influence.

Zhang Ruonan and Xu Jing were brought in by Liu Yulan; they were two nobodys.

"Nannan, I'm so nervous."

"These are people that ordinary people would never encounter."

"Me too!"

...

Xu Jing and Zhang Ruonan were whispering to each other.

Before the two of them noticed, Liu Yulan and Chen Jingyuan had already arrived in front of them.

"Sister Liu!?"

Fortunately, Zhang Ruonan spotted Liu Yulan out of the corner of her eye.

"President Chen!"

Xu Jing realized what was happening, but her gaze fell on Chen Jingyuan excitedly.

Xu Jing followed Chen Keke on Weibo before, but it's hard to say why.

Judging from the current reaction, it's possible that they're only paying attention because of Chen Jingyuan.

Judging from the current reaction, it's possible that they're only paying attention because of Chen Jingyuan.

Zhang Ruonan's gaze also fell on Chen Jingyuan, clearly filled with curiosity.

Before signing with Lan Ke Studio, Zhang Ruonan did thorough research and investigation.

Chen Jingyuan was undoubtedly the most memorable among them!

The Chen family might not have been much better off than theirs before, but things changed under Chen Jingyuan's leadership.

Zhang Ruonan couldn't help but feel a lot of admiration for Chen Jingyuan.

"Hello, both of you."

Chen Jingyuan spoke gently, extending his hand to show goodwill.

"Mr. Chen, this is Xu Jing!"

"Mr. Chen, this is Zhang Ruonan!"

...

Zhang Ruonan and the other person reacted immediately and shook hands briefly.

"I'll arrange for you to hone your acting skills properly from now on."

"At least one second female lead should be cast before this year."

"We'll allocate more resources next year."

Taking advantage of this encounter, Chen Jingyuan directly explained the arrangements.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"

Zhang Ruonan said without the slightest objection.

She is self-aware enough to acknowledge that her acting skills are indeed a problem.

Moreover, she had heard that Bai Lu had honed her skills in Hengdian before allocating resources to her.

Moreover, Chen Jingyuan is the president of Tencent Pictures, so he has no shortage of resources.

As for Liu Yulan, she naturally wouldn't object to Chen Jingyuan's arrangements.

While the group was chatting, Bai Lu walked in wearing a beige Chanel-style suit.

She looked very capable and sophisticated, just like her character in "Hello Mr. Billionaire".

Zhang Ruonan looked at Bai Lu with a look of envy.

Both being models, Bai Lu completed her identity transformation in less than two years.

She has become the focus of everyone's attention, and her popularity is soaring.

"You can do it too someday!"

Chen Jingyuan suddenly spoke up, clearly noticing the envy in Zhang Ruonan's eyes.

With many celebrity guests arriving, Chen Jingyuan and Liu Yulan couldn't stay there any longer.

I need to expand my network; there might be some collaborations in the future.

This time, the two internet giants are competing against each other, but there are relatively few celebrities present.

They probably felt it was better not to offend either side, so they made up an excuse to decline.

Of course, there are also those who don't care much, such as Xu Zheng and Chen Sicheng.

These people still hold considerable positions, so there's no need to worry about them.

There are also some artists who rose to fame entirely thanks to Tencent Penguin Pictures, such as Zhang Yunlong and other artists from Jaywalk Studio.

Yang Mi herself did not come in person, but sent a congratulatory message.

Chen Jingyuan shook his head; he probably knew what Yang Mi was thinking.

That means not offending either side. Although some artists from Jaywalk Studio are coming, as long as Yang Mi doesn't come, there won't be a problem.

If Alibaba Pictures were to approach Yang Mi for collaboration someday, she could even propose that she bring some of her artists to the production.

It's fair to say that Yang Mi's plan was like this.

If Yang Mi wanted to come, she definitely could squeeze out some time.

It's no wonder Chen Jingyuan thought that way; he knew Yang Mi's personality well enough.

Relatively speaking, Dilraba really doesn't have time, especially since her movie "Pride and Prejudice" is still on its promotional tour.

How could I possibly attend the premiere of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" at this time?

In a sense, they can be considered potential competitors.
