Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In exactly one month since Menjie's new album "Tenderness" was released, Menjie's actual sales were 3.6 million copies in China and 1.2 million copies in South Korea.

    During this period, Menjie used a "whim" in total, and achieved good results of 4.95 million in China and 1.65 million in South Korea, shocking the entire Asia in one fell swoop.

    Experts have predicted that Menjie¡¯s album will eventually sell 6 million copies in China and 2 million copies in South Korea. Of course, this is considered a peak and it will be difficult to surpass this number.

    But even so, Menjie will definitely be able to win numerous music awards this year with his album "Tenderness".

    If you were a slightly timid person, you might choose to stay quiet and wait for the final album results to come out, instead of using special skills to increase album sales.

    It is also to avoid irritating other people too much and causing unnecessary trouble to myself. After all, such results are already extraordinary.

    If it was based on Menjie's character in the past, he might have chosen this way, but with the backing of the entire 'Celebrity Entertainment Company' and the energy brought by his huge wealth, Menjie didn't care what other people would think.  Hesitantly, he activated his second special skill 'On a whim'.  This time, because the number of fans increased after the release of the new album during this period, the sales of Menjie's new album increased even more.

    When Menjie used this skill before, he increased Chinese sales by 1.35 million and Korean sales by 450,000, but this time.  But it happened to be an integer.

    Sales in China increased by 1.5 million, and sales in South Korea increased by a full 500,000.

    In the next three short days, Menjie¡¯s huge fans.  This officially raised this data to a higher level.

    It was only half the time the album was released. In just over a month, Menjie¡¯s album sales reached a higher level, directly reaching the sales volume of 6.45 million copies in China and 2.15 million copies in South Korea.

    This number is actually not much different from what countless experts and professors have analyzed.

    It¡¯s just that what those people analyzed was the final sales of the album.  At this time, the sales of the album "Tenderness" reached this number, and it was only a month's sales.

    From now on, there is still a full month.  Presumably, the sales of the album "Tenderness" can still make a breakthrough.

    This number seems too scary.

    Not to mention the terrifying sales of Chinese albums, even if we compare the sales of Korean albums, they have already reached a level that is beyond the reach of ordinary kings and queens.  The peak performances of some veteran top kings and queens of singers may be able to reach this number.  But not much more than that.

    ¡°I¡¯m afraid only those music godfathers can achieve album sales comparable to Menjie¡¯s Korean mini-album in the first month every time they release an album, right?

    As for Menjie¡¯s Chinese album, the terrifying sales figure of 6.45 million copies has made 99% of the entire Chinese music scene feel deeply powerless.

    Even Jay Chou can barely reach this number if he works hard.  But it was also a global sales volume, and it only took two months.  Just the final result.

    Competing with Menjie on China¡¯s album sales within a month, no one has the guts to stand up and compare!

    ¡° If we add up all the album sales in China and South Korea, we are not far away from the total sales of 9 million copies.

    Even if the final total sales volume exceeds 10 million, it is just a matter of time. Menjie is full of confidence in this, and many of the latest predictions also say that Menjie's new album "Tenderness" has great potential.  There is a high probability that it can exceed tens of millions of sales.

    As for the reason why the sales of Menjie's new album "Tenderness" have soared, countless people have seen it too many times and conducted countless investigations. In the end, nothing was found and they could only be classified as  Menjie's fans were too outrageous and eventually the matter was dismissed.

    And Menjie, during the past two months, has been constantly wandering around China and South Korea, stealing the limelight. Even the smallest things will be touted by countless reporters from the news media, making him dazzling.  Incomparable.

    But it made more and more singers in the entertainment industry secretly hate Menjie - they tried every means to make the headlines, but Menjie didn't even pay attention to them, just some simple actions that couldn't be simpler.  Just to be able to go up, what is this but bullying?

    But there is no other way. Menjie¡¯s new album is so popular that it has even been praised by the whole of China andThe country calls him the man who dominated the Asian music scene in 2007.

    Such a title gave Menjie a feeling of elation, and he even felt that he already had huge energy in the Asian music scene that no one could match.

    Even at this moment, Jay Chou has been surpassed by Menjie, but if Menjie thinks about it, after Jay Chou releases a new album, at least in the music world, he will overtake him again, and he will not let himself laugh.

    Of course, just when Menjie became popular in Asia with his new album "Tenderness", something else happened.

    Menjie's movie "Lust, Caution" will be officially released in China at the end of September!

    "The mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even many surrounding countries, even Western countries, have officially released it.

    Although the producer has little energy and Menjie himself is at best a little famous around the world, the director is a top-notch big-name figure. What is the law of God if the work of such a big-name person cannot be released worldwide?

    But it is a pity that on the day when the movie "Lust, Caution" was officially released in China, Menjie's new album was extremely popular and he was constantly announcing it. Although he was regretful and apologetic, he could only talk to director Li  Case, Chen Chong, Tang Wei and others said sorry.

    Of course, I was not able to attend the premiere of the movie "Lust, Caution".  In fact, Menjie had already thought about it a long time ago.

    It¡¯s entirely for the sake of ¡®protecting oneself wisely¡¯.

    Strictly speaking, the movie "Lust, Caution" should be a Category III film.

    ??????????? In fact, it¡¯s nothing if not a Category III film.  Haven¡¯t you seen that there are many Category III movies being circulated throughout China, and there will even be extremely popular Category III movies emerging in the future?

    It¡¯s as if Tang Wei doesn¡¯t have too many worries at all. When most people think about it, nothing big will happen when filming a Category III film.

    If there is no King System, Menjie would also think so.

    But with the King System, Menjie knew the final response of the movie "Lust, Caution".  How intense is it?

    Even the top executives of Baodao expressed their thoughts on this movie!

    According to the original trajectory, under the influence of director Li An and actor Liang Chaowei.  In addition, the movie itself is very good, and it can be said that it caused a stir in the whole of China. Not everyone may have seen it, but it can be described by words such as "household name" and "no one knows it".  describe.

    possible.  It is precisely because this movie is so popular.  In the end, it aroused the fear of the upper-level officials. In order not to affect the stability and harmony of society, they took a crackdown on the film, either overtly or covertly.

    In terms of box office, it is an obvious example.

    Otherwise, relying on this extremely popular movie to win the first place in China's box office rankings in 2007 is also simple and calm.  In the end, he could only give up the first place.

    Even after this.  Director Li An, who had already been involved in the Chinese film industry for the first time, returned to Hollywood again, and the heroine Tang Wei could only be banned.

    Although the ban was later lifted, it was still a heavy blow.

    Although the only remaining one, Liang Chaowei, was not hit, some analysis can be made from the situation at that time.

    On the one hand, it may be to avoid being too obvious a blow to the film, and on the other hand, it is also because Liang Chaowei participated in the big-budget movie "Red Cliff" of China Film Group, a company with a national background, and he escaped by chance.  Pass a tribulation.

    ¡°As for Menjie, he had already thought about it very clearly before taking on the role of filming the movie ¡°Lust, Caution¡±.

    With the background of "Celebrity Entertainment Company" and tens of billions of assets, it is definitely comparable to the energy of Liang Chaowei and China Film Group at that time.

    ¡°In addition, celebrity entertainment companies have huge energy in South Korea. If it doesn¡¯t work, they will directly withdraw to South Korea to develop the company and use it as a springboard to continue to conquer Asia. No one needs to be afraid.

    Even when it comes to competing in Hollywood, Menjie doesn¡¯t have any worries.

    But it¡¯s best to keep this matter within a certain ¡®degree¡¯ and not go too far.

    Menjie himself has a feeling of being very popular recently. With the strength of his new album "Tenderness" and Menjie's huge fans, he has already rivaled Liang Chaowei at this moment.

    When the popularity subsides, Menjie may be knocked back to his original form again, and he will be inferior to Liang Chaowei, but at least for now, he is no worse.

    Under such a situation, the influence that the movie "Lust, Caution" can bring to the entire China willAnd the box office of the movie itself should be comparable to the original movie "Lust, Caution".

    It doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t need a prominent figure to promote it!

    If Menjie came out to promote the movie "Lust, Caution" like he did when promoting his new album "Tenderness", and even used the company's energy, the box office and influence of the movie "Lust, Caution" would definitely rise again.  One level.

    If the scene is really too grand, I am afraid that even if you want to control it, you will not be able to control it. At that time, Menjie will really suffer!

    In order to avoid this disaster, Menjie has ordered Wan Tongtong to start doing everything in the past few days. While expressing his attitude, he simply went to South Korea to promote his Korean version of the mini-album "Tenderness".  ¡·.

    During this period, director Li An approached Menjie and hoped that Menjie could cooperate with the crew to jointly promote the movie "Lust, Caution" and Menjie's new album "Tenderness". He even hoped that Menjie would use the energy of celebrity entertainment companies to promote it.  , were all blocked back by Menjie.

    Of course, Menjie also expressed his concerns to director Li An, but as he was completely Western-minded, he really didn¡¯t think it was a big deal and ignored it.  Even the relationship with Menjie is a little unfamiliar.

    But Menjie is not worried and will wait until the results come out after a while.  Only then could Li An understand that when the time came to help, he would be able to gain the favor of director Li An.

    As for now

    Menjie should just avoid the limelight this time.

    "However, even if Menjie adopted an attitude of not actively publicizing, the movie "Lust, Caution" achieved considerable results from the very beginning.

    It is still the end of September, and October has not yet entered, and the first week box office of the movie "Lust, Caution" has been released.

    The first week.  It directly achieved box office results of 11 million soft sister coins.

    "Such results are actually not very good, not even comparable to the movie "The Night Banquet" that Menjie previously starred in. Don't be aware of this.  After the movie "The Banquet" was released, with the help of Menjie's skills, it directly achieved a box office of 16 million in the first week.

    The original movie "The Banquet" only grossed 12 million at the box office in its first week.  The current movie "Lust, Caution" is almost the same.  It is definitely a very good work.

    And what made Menjie quite happy.

    Through the Tianwang System, Menjie knew that the original box office of Tony Leung Chaowei's version of the movie "Lust, Caution" was a figure of 11 million soft sister coins in the first week.

    Now, although Menjie's influence has skyrocketed in a short period of time due to the popularity of his new album "Tenderness", he can be regarded as equal to Liang Chaowei.

    Without the application of skills, it is definitely a very inspiring thing to rival Liang Chaowei purely based on strength!

    Because of such joy, Menjie was excited.  There is even an urge to personally join the crew to promote it, so as to achieve the real box office results of the movie "Lust, Caution" in which he starred.  A version that surpasses Tony Leung!

    Fortunately, Menjie endured it in the end.

    ¡°Anyway, there will be countless opportunities in the future. It won¡¯t be long before Menjie, who has become the trend, will be able to truly surpass anyone else, rather than just taking advantage of the situation like now.

    We can only endure it for a few days!

    But the results of the subsequent movie "Lust, Caution" really gave Menjie a big surprise!

    In less than a month, the movie "Lust, Caution" has already set off a storm in China. Because of the special nature of the movie, although the box office results are not particularly extraordinary, the topic is quite huge.

    In the end, the movie "Lust, Caution" earned a total box office of 50 million in half the time it was released!

    Such an achievement really made Menjie extremely happy.

    Compared with the movie "The Banquet" starring Ge You, it is only a few 5 million away. Compared with the original movie starring Liang Chaowei, it is not only a tie, but also exceeds the box office result of 1 million soft sister coins!

    The original box office result of Tony Leung Chaowei's version of the movie "Lust, Caution" was 49 million, but Menjie's was 50 million!

    This is also a big problem with the King of Heaven system. After the movie is officially released, Menjie prefers to compete with the movie that was originally starred by other people rather than competing with other competitors.

    Only in this way, when the director, story, investment, etc. are all the same, can the results reflect the real contrast between the two male protagonists.

    But even ifThe box office performance of the movie "Lust, Caution" has surpassed Tony Leung's version of the movie by a slim margin. Menjie still has not returned to the crew of the movie "Lust, Caution" for promotional work, even though director Li An contacted Menjie many times.  in this way.

    It¡¯s not that Menjie isn¡¯t tempted, but because

    The storm has spread. According to the news that Wan Tongtong told him a few days ago, some relevant departments in charge of this aspect have noticed the movie, and even some senior leaders have also turned their attention to the movie.  "Lust, Caution" conducted a thorough investigation!

    ¡°After all, this storm is too big and violent, and they can¡¯t help but pay attention to it.

    This means that the strength of Celebrity Entertainment Company is already very strong, and it maintains certain relationships with many figures in the department. The news that was learned just now, other people cannot know the news at all.

    Even the production company of the movie "Lust, Caution" is still immersed in the movie's popularity, and is extremely happy, celebrating and promoting it like crazy.

    In this regard, Menjie once again said something to Tang Wei, Chen Chong and Li An in a vague way. However, the three people, who were also immersed in joy, still did not have the slightest alertness and continued the intense and busy propaganda work.

    Finally, just a few days later, the relevant issues were issued.

    The publicity team led by directors Li An, Tang Wei, and Chen Chong were directly forced to suspend their publicity work. At the same time, major TV stations have also reluctantly removed several of them from the guest ranks, even these few people.  All related entertainment work has been temporarily suspended. It is not considered a ban, but just a short rest.

    According to the information Wan Tongtong has inquired about, it seems that the officials want to use a relatively mild and calm method to reduce the influence of this storm in China.

    Even the variety shows recorded by Tang Wei and others have been broadcast smoothly, and the movie "Lust, Caution" is also being released in full swing, and it does not give people a feeling of "powerful blow".

    The heat continued for three to five days.

    But after three or five days, the heat subsided.

    There is no publicity, no discounts in major movie theaters, and even the number of movie releases per day has been reduced a lot. The news media seems to have been inspired and no longer broadcast news related to the movie "Lust, Caution", except for very, very  Occasionally, there will be some announcements such as "the box office results reached tens of millions", but no other news will be announced.

    After that, some time passed, and with this gentle treatment, the movie "Lust, Caution" finally officially came to an end, leaving a deep impression on people, but it did not reach the point of shocking the whole country.  Menjie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief as the storm passed safely.  (To be continued)
