Chapter 293 Accidentally Won Five Prizes (Please Subscribe to Support!)
…
Soon after arriving in Nanhai, Xu Kai discovered that something was wrong with Zhu Bing, Chen Ruoxi and Zhang Zhiwei, especially Zhu Bing, who insisted on coming to Nanhai with him even though he had a lot of things to do.
No one knows what's wrong with Zhu Bing lately. She asks Xu Kai for things whenever she gets the chance. She also stays around Xu Kai every day and never leaves his side. She has no intention of spending time on the beach with Dong Ye and the others.
Chen Ruoxi and Zhang Zhiwei are the same. They hang around Xu Kai every day and seduce him whenever they get the chance. They even don't care about the occasion.
After sensing that something was wrong, Xu Kai began to pay attention to the actions of Zhu Bing, Chen Ruoxi and Zhang Zhiwei.
As a result, after Xu Kai found out that he was with Zhu Bing, Chen Ruoxi and Zhang Zhiwei, they not only secretly vomited out the pregnancy-blocking drugs he gave them, but also dared not eat anything he gave them.
Seeing this, how could Xu Kai not know that they had discovered the reason why they had not been able to conceive?
Naturally, Xu Kai also understood that Zhu Bing, Chen Ruoxi and Zhang Zhiwei wanted to "steal" his child.
In this regard, Xu Kai couldn't help but start to reflect: "Should I not unilaterally deprive them of their right to be mothers?"
In the past, Xu Kai was afraid of trouble, and he was even more afraid that these women would use their children to force him to get married.
But now, Xu Kai has already taken on all these troubles, and he can't get rid of them. So how much more trouble can it cause if he has a few more children? Moreover, looking at this matter rationally, a woman's willingness to bear children for you is a sign that she loves you more and cares about you more.
From this perspective, Xu Kai's unilateral deprivation of the women of the right to bear children for him is inappropriate and selfish.
After self-examination, Xu Kai no longer forced the women to take pregnancy-blocking drugs. Instead, he provided them with contraceptive pills, and it was up to them whether to take them or not.
Not long after, Zhu Bing and Chen Ruoxi became pregnant.
But before Zhu Bing and Chen Ruoxi could be happy, Dong Ye, Tian Haitang and Yilina also became pregnant one after another...
…
The final box office of "The Manhunt" was over 930 million, a huge hit.
Just from the box office share, Xu Kai, who holds a 15% stake in the production of "The Chase", can get more than 140 million.
Plus the 15 million that Xu Kai had taken in advance.
Adding these two items together, Xu Kai made a net profit of over 155 million.
And that’s not all. On the platform, even if “The Chase” doesn’t sell for 1 billion, it will definitely sell for more than 800 million. In this way, Xu Kai can still get at least 60 million.
In addition, the theme song of "The Chase", "Ambition in My Heart", was also written, composed and sung by Xu Kai, and the soundtrack of "The Chase" was also composed by Xu Kai.
Similar to the situation with "The Grandmaster", when making the theme song and the soundtrack, Xu Kai did not discuss money with Lin Da, and just said that they would talk about it later.
When "The Grandmaster" paid Xu Kai the bill, Yuan Xiaoliang and Xu Wenguang gave Xu Kai a red envelope of 16.66 million yuan as money for Xu Kai's writing, composing and singing the theme song of "The Grandmaster" and the soundtrack for "The Grandmaster" (the copyright of "A Man Should Be Self-reliant" belongs to Kai Xin Maizi).
Now that "The Manhunt" is selling even better, and with the examples of Yuan Xiaoliang and Xu Wenguang, it is impossible for Lin Da to give Xu Kai a red envelope of less than 20 million. After all, Lin Da still wants to cooperate with Xu Kai on "The Manhunt 2".
There are also overseas box office and so on.
All in all, "The Chase" can make Xu Kai at least 250 million.
The situation is similar to that of Yuen Siu-leung and Hsu Man-kwong planning to shoot “The Grandmaster 2”. Because “The Chase” was a huge hit, Lam Tat was also preparing to shoot “The Chase 2”.
However, unlike Xu Kai who is preparing to take on "The Grandmaster 2", Xu Kai is not planning to take on "The Chase 2".
The reason why Xu Kai was not prepared to take on "The Manhunt 2" was not because Lin Da offered him too little - Lin Da was also prepared to give Xu Kai 30% of the shares of the production company and invite Xu Kai to star in "The Manhunt 2", and Lin Da also said that if Xu Kai was not satisfied with the price, they could still negotiate.
Xu Kai didn't want to cooperate with Lin Da and Tang Jiping anymore because he really couldn't stand these two crazy people.
How do you think "The Chase" earned nearly 1 billion at the box office?
This was entirely the result of Xu Kai risking his life.
Linda and Tang Jiping asked Xu Kai to jump off the lamp post - jump onto the lamp post without any protection, slide down, and then fall on the glass ceiling on the first floor with his back, smashing the glass ceiling with his body, and then fall to the ground. When shooting this scene, it was a sudden command, and the lamp post was really electrified.
Although Xu Kai is a martial arts expert with agile body and physique far superior to ordinary people, he is still a human being, not a god. When he did this action, he really did it with great pressure.
Also, Lin Da and Tang Jiping asked Xu Kai to chase a bus traveling at high speed. The road was full of cars at the time, and if he was not careful, Xu Kai's life might be lost.
Also, Linda and Tang Jiping made Xu Kai really get electric shocks, and that feeling was so "refreshing".
To be honest, Xu Kai had never been afraid of anything before.
But ever since he met those two crazy guys, Lin Da and Tang Jiping, Xu Kai was really afraid to film with them.
In order to avoid filming with Lin Da and Tang Jiping, Xu Kai blocked these two guys who harassed him every day. He decided to out of sight, out of mind. Anyway, he had already repaid the favor.
But what Xu Kai never expected was that Lin Da and Tang Jiping actually chased him to Nanhai and blocked Xu Kai in the crew of "Charlotte's Troubles", leaving Xu Kai with no way to hide.
There was no other way, Xu Kai could only point at Zhu Bing's belly and said to Lin Da: "Brother Da, it's not that I don't want to help you, my girlfriend is pregnant, I want to watch the baby being born, and then accompany him to grow up."
Linda, who had known about the relationship between Xu Kai and Zhu Bing for a long time, said, "I understand that you have this idea, but Chinese-language films really need you."
Linda added with deep feeling: "Since the development of Chinese-language films, there have been few Chinese actors who have truly entered Hollywood, and even fewer who have been able to shine. Do you know why?"
Xu Kai actually knew the reason, but he shook his head deliberately: "I don't know, and I don't want to know. I'm not interested in this at all. You can talk to someone who is interested in this."
Tang Jiping seemed not to notice Xu Kai's reluctance and impatience, but echoed Lin Da and said, "After simplifying all the steps of the art of film, it is actually a combination of describing the story through the characters' language and actions.
Do you know how many languages there are in the world? There are 5,651 languages that have been identified in the world, and there are more than 1,400 languages that have not been recognized by people.
Although the language aspect of the film can be viewed through translation into the native language, the way of speaking will cause the lines designed by the film production itself to lose their original artistic conception.
Although people's body movements and facial expressions may vary around the world, the level of understanding is still very high compared to the language environment.
A good actor can convey stories, jokes and emotions to the audience simply through his or her performance art.
The language environment in Hollywood is naturally English, and it is impossible to accommodate other languages. Therefore, in terms of movies, action is more permeable than language. "
Linda went on to say, "We have also thought about finding others to work with and train them to become world representatives of Chinese actors, but others are not capable of that. In recent years, it's not that there haven't been Chinese actors who have gone to Hollywood to develop their careers. Some of them will play a standard role in Hollywood movies, and some may even just play minor roles. If Chinese actors want to make a name for themselves in Hollywood, I'm afraid they can only be action actors, and the best action actors."
Tang Jiping nodded: "Only by doing what Hollywood actors cannot do can we hope to completely conquer the Hollywood movie palace."
Linda then added: "Little Don and I have positioned you to conquer Hollywood with your funny moves and extraordinary courage, so that you can make you laugh and obey me in Hollywood."
Tang Jiping said sincerely, "Your movements are extremely gorgeous and graceful, and you can complete human extreme sports that others cannot complete. Moreover, your image is so good that we can't find another one like you in the entire Chinese film and television industry. Otherwise, why would we, knowing that you don't want to make a movie with us, still come to you to take advantage of us?"
Linda said earnestly, "Qingyun, top action actors are very scarce, and Hollywood rarely produces such actors. Although Hollywood also has some action actors, everyone who has seen their films knows that in terms of the beauty and rhythm of action movies, there is a big gap between them and you. So, as long as you are polished and allowed to enter Hollywood, you will definitely become an international superstar."
Seeing that Xu Kai was still not too moved, Tang Jiping then said something heartbreaking: "Qingyun, let me tell you something you may not like to hear. Bingbing is the most beautiful woman in China. If you are not a peerless hero, how can you be worthy of her?"
