Fan Bingbing's rise to fame was through the "carpet star" phenomenon. Her team was incredibly capable; they collaborated with Wang Xiaoshuai to walk the Cannes red carpet. Wearing a dragon robe, she instantly became a sensation. Press releases, hype, and her stunning appearance made her an overnight sensation, propelling her to stardom and skyrocketing her commercial value. From then on, she was bestowed the title of "Fan Ye" (Master Fan) and "Queen of Business," instantly becoming a queen of controversy.
Then he went to Hollywood and acted in a few big movies, mostly in minor roles, maybe only appearing on screen for a few dozen seconds and having a few lines. But the press releases were well-written: "Fan Xiaopang conquers Hollywood, full of prestige, his gold plating is complete," and his salary skyrocketed, calculated according to Hollywood standards.
She also worked with many high-end luxury brands in China. From 2012 to 2015, Fan Bingbing was probably at her peak, earning hundreds of millions of yuan a year. She was the center of attention in news releases, and wherever she went, she was undoubtedly the center of attention. Moreover, she was very assertive, and no one dared to mess with her.
With her frequent witty remarks, such as "I am the rich and powerful," which were said by Fan Bingbing, she really knows how to do it well. No one else can imitate her. She has truly carved out her own path. If it weren't for the incident, she would really be the number one female star in China.
Since then, female celebrities in China have been vying to imitate her. Even Wan Qian, who is supposedly indifferent to fame and fortune, wore the same outfit as Xiao Pang at the Golden Horse Awards. The only difference was the style, pattern, and color.
Fan Xiaopang is quite capable and ambitious, but her foundation is unstable. This is also a video. She is different from Zhang Ziyi. Zhang Ziyi has really acted in many big productions and is not just playing minor roles, although they are all produced by domestic directors.
But Little Fatty can handle the plate so well, which is pretty impressive.

Room Living Room
Shen Fang hugged Fan Xiaopang and said, "Xiao Kun, I'm planning to get into the hotel industry. Now that I'm a shareholder in Hengdian, I might as well use the land there."
I have a very positive outlook on the hotel industry. At the very least, in the future, our artists and staff working for Longteng will have a comfortable place to stay when they visit Hengdian. We'll make it a hotel exclusively for artists.
This time, we have reached a strategic cooperation with Hengdian. In the future, Hengdian will be filled with a huge number of film crews. We will have more business to do with these film crews alone.
Let's start by building a five-star hotel to test the waters. Land prices will definitely skyrocket in the future, so this business is a sure thing no matter what. Once I have enough capital back, I plan to focus on the chain hotel business. The quality of hotels in China is currently uneven, and there are no particularly famous chain hotel brands. In the future, industrialization and branding will be the industry standard in China.
This industry is a blue ocean market with very considerable profits. More importantly, the hotel's location means there's no need to worry about customers. I'll leave this to you; find the right person and bring this project to fruition.
Shen Kun nodded. He also thought the hotel industry was a viable business. To be honest, these days, almost anything can make money; the country is doing well, there's no way around it. It's just a matter of how much you earn.
"Third Uncle, just tell me what to do and I'll get it done. What level of hotel are we going to stay at?"
Shen Fang held up a hand: "Five-star. If you're going to do it, do it the best. Safety, privacy, comfort, and even the decoration style must all be top-notch. Let professionals handle professional matters. You're responsible for finding the right people and handing it over to them. Once the design drawings are done, show them to me. I'll give you 200 million to make this happen. The design must be innovative and modern. The style doesn't have to be unconventional, but it must give people a fashionable feeling. Trendiness is a must, but so is elegance and sophistication. We'll hold a design bidding process, offering a reward of 1 million RMB, inviting the top designers in the country to participate, and holding a press conference to recruit designers nationwide."
Shen Kun nodded, but then he thought of something: "Um, Uncle, we don't have enough funds in the account. You've invested all your money in the stock market, and you just spent another 250 million. Should we wait a bit longer? Or we can only take out a loan to do this project?"
Shen Fang smiled and said, "Just take out a loan. Anyway, the Dongyang and Ningbo governments will give me preferential treatment. They're on our side now. Register a company and apply for a loan. I'll have Xu Wensheng invest in the hotel project. You can ask him to handle this. These Ningbo people have plenty of money in their pockets. We can just take advantage of them for free. The location has to be good, and the scale has to be large. Do everything to the best of our ability. Once Fantasy Westward Journey is launched and NetEase's stock price rises, we won't have to worry about the money."
Fan Xiaopang, who was leaning against Shen Fang, had a gleam in his eyes when he heard the stock price rise.
"Honey, how did you know NetEase's stock price would go up? Do you have inside information? Can I buy some? I want to earn some pocket money."
Shen Fang laughed: "I am the major shareholder. As for why it has risen, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. If you want to make some pocket money, you can invest heavily in NetEase stock for the long term. Ding Pangzi is a capable man. NetEase will definitely go far under his leadership. Although the current stock price is not the lowest point, it is only $2.7 per share. If you want to invest, go find Brother Bo. Wang Haibo can buy it for you. If you have spare money, give it to him to manage. Brother Bo is my trader. He can help you multiply your money several times a year."
Fan Xiaopang was pleasantly surprised and kissed Chen Fang several times.
"Thank you, darling. Why didn't you tell me sooner? If you had, I wouldn't have bought a house. I don't have much money left."
Shen Fang smiled and said, "Buying a house is a sure-fire way to make money. Haven't you seen that I'm also planning to get into the hotel industry? With you by my side, I won't be short of money."
"Um, what's the hotel's name? Is it also called Dragon Hotel?" Shen Kun asked doubtfully.
Shen Fang smiled and said, "Of course, since it's an integrated industry, the name has to be the same. Let's call it Dragon Hotel."
Shen Kun nodded: "Okay, leave it to me. I'll go to Hengdian tomorrow."
