In 1999, SM's largest shareholder was Li Xiuman and his parents, with a total of 74.32% of the shares, while other shares were in the hands of major securities companies.

SM Company was listed on Nasdaq in April 2000 with a market value of RMB 309 million.

In 1998, SM's revenue was RMB 34.811 million. In early 1999, SM's valuation was RMB 186 million.

If, according to the original history, after Li Xiuman opened the Chinese and Japanese markets, the revenue of SM in 1999 would be 2.5 times that of 1998, and the valuation would also increase rapidly.

But now with Ye Fan's sniping, everything has become different. In 1999, Li Xiuman didn't have to think about making money in China.

After Ye Fan learned about the situation of SM Company, he did not ask [Chaoyang Company] to communicate directly, but went to those securities companies to acquire shares of SM Company in US dollars through the relationship between Boss Yang and Wu Dun and others.

Then transfer to the name of [Chaoyang Company]. Of course, the cost in the middle will be much higher, but Ye Fan was worried that he had no place to spend money, so he would make a profit if he could buy it in advance.

As for the other two entertainment giants in South Korea in the future, Ye Fan doesn’t have much thought.

JYP is still a family-style company now, and it is not easy to buy shares if you want to buy shares. Later, it also invested in the Korean chaebol. The capital is relatively complicated, and YG and Bangzi chaebol are deeply involved.

So before South Korea's foundation was laid, Ye Fan decided not to interfere in these two companies...

On the 24th, the princess released the theme song of "Finish Fantasy 8" - "Eyes on Me".

This made her the second Chinese singer who entered the top 10 of the Ori list with non-Japanese songs, and naturally Ye Fan was the first.

Original history The album sold more than 350,000 yuan in Japan, becoming the sales champion of Japanese foreign language records, but now this title has long been won by Ye Fan.

Last year, "The Light Chaser" sold more than 500,000 copies in Japan. In January, "The Light Chaser" sold 563,000 copies in Asia, of which Japan contributed 71,000 copies.

With "The Savage Girlfriend", Zeng Li is quite famous overseas. "She Said" sold 865,000 copies in the third month, with a total sales of 3.171 million copies.

In Japan, "She Said" sold more than 200,000 copies, which is already very good for Chinese singers.

If Zeng Li could go to Japan to hold several signing meetings or events, it would be impossible for "She Said" to sell more than 350,000 copies.

However, Zeng Li relies on the bonus of movies and Ye Fan’s songs, and the princess relies on her own strength, so Zeng Li’s current real strength is definitely not comparable to the princess.

Of course, the decline of "She Said" is not only related to the release of the movie, but also related to the official debut of Britney Little Sweet and becoming popular all over the world.

During this period, the sales of female singers' albums have declined to varying degrees.

On January 12, Britney released her first album "Baby Oime", which not only won the [Billboard Top 200 Album List] in the first week, but also became popular all over the United States at an astonishing speed and then became popular in the world.

How popular she is? How popular is Zhao in the original history? Britney is even more exaggerated in the United States than her. Even the leader of the United States at that time said that she drove the US economy, which shows that...

By February 28, Ye Fan had recorded all the songs from the new album, and the new song MV did not need to be filmed, and he directly used clips of the film and television dramas.

So Wang Xinmin rushed to cut some exciting scenes of "Shao San" and got the special effects of [Xiantao Digital]. After doing it, he directly made the MV of the opening and ending songs.

This will also promote "Shao San" in advance. After all, Ye Fan's album is popular for at least half a year, and at this time, "Shao San" will have to be completed in the later stages of "Shao San".

Similarly, the same is true for "The Ming Dynasty" and "Flying Knife". Ye Fan sent the new song DEMO to both Li Shaohong and Yuan Baye, and asked him to use the content of the TV series to make mv, that was their business.

Li Shaohong was very satisfied with the quality of "The Stunning Side". After she heard Zhou Xun's still quite magnetic singing at this time, she remembered that she debuted as a singer.

After Yuan Baye heard of "Sword Heart" and "As long as you want", he wanted both songs, but Wang Jinghua's offer was too high, with a song of 3 million, so how could he afford it?

Yuan Baye personally called Ye Fan and grinded him for a long time. Ye Fan let him go, either 2.6 million yuan per song or 5 million yuan two songs, or counted as the investment in "Little Li Flying Knife", and finally sold the money to share his share.

However, Yuan Baye still couldn't decide on the price and the proposal. After communicating with the investors behind him, he decided to buy the copyright of "Sword Heart" for 2.6 million yuan.

This made Ye Fan very regretful. "As long as you" can only be used in "Shao San".

As for selling two songs with a price cut, the investor is from Taiwan Province, and Ye Fan will definitely kill them. He said that he should maintain his style and cannot sell the new songs at a cheap price.

Master Yuan Ba ​​really doesn't know how to adapt. Why didn't he think about adding some intimate scenes to Ye Fan to challenge his weaknesses? Maybe Ye Fan will follow this?

...

After the Lantern Festival, Ye Fan set out to Wuxi. "Little Li Flying Knife" will open the camera and shoot in Wuxi at the end of the month, and the main shooting location is in Hengdian.

The crew of "Da Ming Palace Poetry" is also going to Tangcheng, Wuxi to shoot the next stage of the scene, which is just convenient for Ye Fanzai... to speed up the shooting progress!

And just yesterday, March 2, the box office of "Infernal Affairs" also came out in the second week.

As the number of moviegoers in South Korea continues to decrease, the box office of "Infernal Affairs" in the second week was still RMB 186 million, with a total box office of RMB 399 million.

The box office of "Glass Bottle" in the second week was 42.177 million, while the box office of "King of Comedy" was even lower, only 35.716 million.

In just two weeks, Infernal Affairs surpassed the box office of "The Savage Girlfriend", which once again caused domestic media to fall into a carnival.

Not only because Ye Fan's works have broken his box office records one by one, but also because "Infernal Affairs" is expected to become the first pure Chinese-language film to have a box office of over 500 million yuan.

The 500 million box office is definitely a milestone in Chinese-language films. How can it not be exciting?

Following this trend, if you are more bold, is it possible for Ye Fan to make a box office of 600 million or even 100 million US dollars later?

At the turn of the century, if a Chinese-language movie could reach a box office of 100 million US dollars, it would definitely be a great inspiration for people in the Chinese-language film industry!

The media even dared to directly shout out that Chinese-language movies have risen, and it is not like Meng who is the case with Hollywood.

However, Ye Fan is not as optimistic as them. The East and West cultures are different. In about 2000 years, it is already the limit to be able to sell pure Chinese dramas to a box office of 100 million US dollars.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has bought a box office of more than 200 million US dollars worldwide, but it is a Chinese martial arts film specially made for Western countries and is in line with their inner imagination.

The connotation of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" does not conform to the traditional domestic martial arts culture. It can be seen at a box office of only about 15 million in Hong Kong and mainland China.

It is only its box office results and the achievements that made Ang Lee win awards in the Oscars and other Western awards, which are so good.

So if you want to get high box office in the European and American film markets, you must at least shoot low-cost horror movies in Hollywood, co-production of exciting action movies and special effects blockbusters. It is easy to be unacceptable to pure Chinese movies alone.

However, the box office of "Infernal Affairs" of nearly 400 million yuan is enough for the main creators such as Hua Ge and Rong Shao to promote roadshows more actively.

Needless to say, the media said, they became Asian-level movie superstars and became the biggest hits for next year's [Golden Horse Awards] and [Actors Awards].

Brother Hua cleared the blame for the box office defeat of "The Gambler 1999", and Young Master Rong also proved to the world that even if he had any controversy, the actor would be the actor!

Not to mention Ye Fan, many Hong Kong filmmakers have placed their hopes for the rise of Hong Kong films on him, because the talent shown by Ye Fan really convinced them.

Taking this opportunity, Boss Yang and others took the opportunity to announce that "Infernal Affairs 2" will start filming in the second half of the year, which is equivalent to adding fuel to the fire and increasing the popularity of "Infernal Affairs" again!

However, when the media and fans learned that the starring of "Infernal Affairs 2" was Ye Fan and Wu Azu, who played Liu Jianming and Chen Yongren when they were young, many people questioned it.

First of all, there are few good movies in the second movie series. In their opinion, the acting skills of Brother Hua and Mr. Rong in "Infernal Affairs 1" are already at their peak.

They doubt whether Ye Fan and Wu Azu's acting skills can support the second part, and many fans of Brother Hua and Mr. Rong still hope that they will act.

However, the decision is not in their hands, so they can only speak out now and make the popularity of "Infernal Affairs".

Xie Xiaofeng was very envious of Wu Azu's ability to star in a movie with such a high box office. Fortunately, Boss Yang didn't tell Xie Xiaofeng that he had the chance to star in it, but Ye Fan was ruined.

If Xie Xiaofeng knew about this situation, he would probably turn into Chef God Xie directly, and then come to Ye Fan with a kitchen knife...

When they came to the crew of "The Palace of Ming Dynasty", Li Shaohong and most of them congratulated Ye Fan on their achievements in the two movies.

Ye Fan took some politeness and took off makeup with great enthusiasm because his passionate scene with Chen Hong was filmed in Tangcheng, Wuxi.

Director Chen cannot follow the team every day, even if he and the team are concerned, they will not dare to look at it. Otherwise, Ye Fan would probably turn green and light after seeing it, and he might even explode on the spot...

This play is the plot of episode 28, which tells the story of Wu Zetian becoming tired of the government and being addicted to the singing and dancing of the harem and male favorites.

Princess Taiping came to persuade him by the ministers, and unexpectedly met Zhang Yizhi.

In front of this character who is proficient in women's psychology and "Western European Love Saint-Don Juan", Taiping's last trace of resistance and belief seemed weak and powerless. She fell into the emotional vortex arranged by Zhang Yizhi and was played with by her...

If it weren't for the times and conditions that would not allow, with Ye Fan's appearance and "talent", he would definitely be a scumbag in Asia... Love Saint!

Before the filming started, Li Shaohong asked Ye Fan and Chen Hong to find each other's feelings. Ye Fan quickly entered Zhang Yizhi's state and began to play.

Isn’t it just a flirting girl who has no love in his heart? Ye Fan is a scumbag... There is naturally no problem with a man with rich emotions.

Chen Hong recalled the content of the script and looked at Ye Fan's face. She told herself that she was a professional actor.

After adjusting his mental state, Chen Hong tried the show with Ye Fan...

After a long time, Li Shaohong saw that the two of them had almost finished finding each other, so she notified the crew members and started the official filming after the clearance.

This made Shuangbing and other people who were eating melons very regretful. Such a wonderful scene could not be watched, especially the wife of Ye Fan and Director Chen... Hiss~ It was exciting to think about it, but unfortunately I couldn't be watched!

...

The daytime view of Taiping Mansion Hall

In the halo of Zhenlie at the door, [Zhang Yizhi]'s figure gradually became clear. His quiet appearance was like a scene, standing happily beside the door frame.

When Taiping just turned around, [Zhang Yizhi] spoke, directly caught [Taiping] off guard.

Then the two began to speak the lines... [Zhang Yizhi] Always mastering the rhythm of the conversation.

Ye Fan's gentle and elegant posture, his soft voice and erratic eyes made him far from the ordinary man's temperament.

The elegance that penetrated every pore in his body made him look quite stylish even when he was charming.

This is undoubtedly a fatal temptation for [Taiping], and both of them quickly got into the role...

Taiping Mansion Bedroom Night Interior View

After the two talked until now, [Taiping] she gradually stopped rejecting [Zhang Yizhi] and became curious about him without realizing it.

Another long line... [Zhang Yizhi] asked [Taiping] to shut up the maid and asked her to blow out the candle, which made [Taiping] a little anxious and nervous.

[Zhang Yizhi]'s reason is that he will not lie in a dark environment, and this reason makes [Taiping] a little amused and cry.

("Bah! Scumbag!")

After the candlelight went out, only the moonlight fell from the window, outlining the outline of the two people. [Zhang Yizhi] deliberately mentioned [Xue Shao] and began to disintegrate the atrium of [Taiping]...
