Chapter 298 298. Movie premiere, identity change

Chapter 298 298. Movie premiere, identity change

Time flies, and before we know it, it is July 6th.

At the Broadway Cinematheque in Hong Kong, a bright red carpet has been laid out at the entrance, which is dozens of meters long and extends all the way to the entrance. The grand entrance and lobby of the cinema are also filled with flower baskets, which are all blessings from countless big names and companies in the entertainment industry.

On both sides of the red carpet at the entrance, there are also hundreds of reporters waiting in a state of alert, armed to the teeth with long guns and short guns, and even a broadcast vehicle from TVB, which is full of momentum.

Today is the premiere of "New Police Story".

As a movie with a luxurious lineup of Cheng Long, Xie Tingfeng, Nie Wei, and Cai Zhuoyan, it is unquestionable that it has received attention. The movie clips edited in the previous promotional video have received more than 10 million hits on the Internet, and some of the car chases, gun battles, and Cheng Long-style classic action scenes are all expected by the audience.

And Nie Wei's subversive performance and styling in the film have really attracted a large number of girls.

Although Nie Wei has only released one movie so far, his appeal in the film industry is unquestionable. As early as a month before the release date was announced, Nie Wei's fan clubs in various places began to organize movie-watching teams, and Nie Wei's fans also contributed a significant amount of pre-sold movie tickets.

Just like the fans surrounding the fan areas on both sides of the red carpet at this moment, you will find that apart from Cheng Long, the fans holding Nie Wei's small signs are the most, even Xie Tingfeng is slightly inferior.

A reporter wearing a white shirt and a dark green vest wiped the lens, installed the camera, took two photos of Nie Wei's fan group, and then turned around and asked his colleague next to him: "Lao Li, when will Nie Wei and his team arrive?"

"It's early, I guess we'll have another half an hour, just wait." Lao Li looked at his watch and replied.

"Have you prepared all the questions you want to ask? Today's opportunity is rare. If he hadn't had to attend the premiere, he might still be hiding from us."

"Haha, who made him make such a big news? I didn't expect that such a young guy would suddenly become a tycoon. It's really unexpected." Old Li smiled and shook his head, thinking of the moment when Hong Kong opened a few days ago and iFlytek Group announced its listing.

When the list of shareholders was announced, it was said that the reporters at the scene were almost in an uproar.

Because in a series of shareholder lists, there was a person who none of them expected among the names at the top, and that person was Nie Wei, who they had been waiting for today and wanted to interview.

The star became a shareholder of a listed company, and a super large shareholder. Nie Wei became the biggest winner that night except for Mr. Ma with a 26% stake. Even if a part of it was used for listing and sale, Nie Wei still firmly occupied the position of the second largest shareholder of iFlytek.

This mainland Internet company went public at HK$6.7 per share. After only a few days, the stock price has risen to more than HK$35, a full five times. And anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is far from the high point of this company. In the future, the stock price will only rise, not fall.

Nie Wei's sudden change of identity this time also caused a commotion in the media on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong and Macau. Almost all media went out to interview this new rich man, but no matter how they made an appointment or privately chased and blocked him, they could not catch Nie Wei.

After confirming that Nie Wei would attend today's movie premiere, almost all the media in Hong Kong came, and even TVB's news station came to join in the fun. All of this was to catch Nie Wei and dig into the story behind his becoming a shareholder of iFlytek.

"Hey, have you heard that most of the stocks in Nie Wei's hands were bought from Li Xiaochaoren. I heard that Nie Wei only spent about 100 million to buy those shares at that time, and now it has increased dozens of times in a blink of an eye. Xiaochaoren must be regretting it now." A reporter suddenly said, with an expression full of gloating.

This sentence also made the reporters around laugh out loud. The reason why everyone knew about this matter was that a year ago, Li Zhekai boasted about his investment results in that program, and mentioned iFlytek, saying that he spent 2.2 million US dollars to buy shares of a mainland Internet company, and then sold it at more than six times the price in less than three years.

This matter has also been reported by many financial magazines. At that time, the editors strongly advocated Li Zekai's business talent and gave him a nickname called Xiaochaoren. Obviously, they were most optimistic about him squeezing in his father Li Chaoren's mantle.

But no one expected that the slap in the face would come so quickly.

Just two months after Li Zhekai got the title of Little Superman, Tencent started to develop the online game industry. The first game, Dungeon \u0026 Fighter, immediately exploded the online game market in the mainland after its public beta test. It quickly occupied the online game market with its fresh and rich gameplay and refreshing sense of attack, and also brought great benefits to iFlytek.

In just over a year, no one would have thought that the Internet company that was still troubled by funds at the beginning already had the capital to go public. As for the financial media that had originally boasted about him, they were like Sichuan Opera face-changing, mercilessly mocking him. There were even media with good intentions that made a plan, claiming that Li Zhekai's foolish deal had made him lose at least 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

While everyone was laughing at Li Zhekai, another person was undoubtedly made successful, and that was naturally Nie Wei who bought the shares.

"He must be regretting it, but Nie Wei is also very low-key. He only showed up when iFlytek went public, and then he disappeared. He didn't even accept media interviews. If it happened to other artists, they would have been exaggerated a long time ago."

"This kid is an alternative in the entertainment industry."

"But he can't run away this time. I must ask him about it later. This matter is not over, hahaha."

"Here it comes!" Suddenly someone exclaimed, and then everyone saw a black luxury Mercedes-Benz stopped at one end of the red carpet. Everyone immediately felt refreshed, subconsciously raised their cameras, and looked towards the direction of the car door.

The car door slowly opened under the expectation of everyone, and then a slender jade leg that was enough to make all the men on the scene boil stretched out, but for some reason, all the reporters sighed in their hearts at this moment, no matter how tempting the jade legs in front of them were, they couldn't get interested at all.

The people who got off the car were Jiang Yi and Xie Tingfeng. Amid the cheers of the fans, the reporters took a few perfunctory photos, leaving the two people on the red carpet confused. Today's reporters were really abnormal. Handsome men and beautiful women like themselves were usually not allowed to leave, but today they all felt that the other party's attitude was perfunctory. This was too strange.

However, seeing some reporters frequently looking towards the end of the red carpet, Xie Tingfeng suddenly realized it. With a helpless smile, he took Jiang Yi to speed up and walk towards the theater, because he knew that the protagonist today was destined not to be him.

Maybe Xie Tingfeng and Jiang Yi walked a little fast, and the driver behind them did not expect it, so a minute after the two disappeared on the red carpet, the second luxury car slowly drove over.

The reporters immediately perked up, and they would definitely not make the same mistake again this time.

In the camera, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan worth millions slowly stopped at the end of the red carpet, and soon the door opened, and a pair of black leather shoes stepped out. The hands of the reporters on the shutter button also tightened slightly, but the next second, all the reporters couldn't help but tilt their bodies.

Because it was Chen Musheng who came out!

This is really, what the hell, is it really okay for a big director like you to come out so early?

The reporters' faces were very complicated at this moment. They had expected twice and failed twice. Some reporters who believed in fate even began to doubt whether they could interview Nie Wei today.

Although everyone was in a very disappointed mood, looking at Chen Musheng's glorious appearance, his signature waving hair was combed meticulously, his glasses were polished, and there was a reflection in the camera, and he was wearing a straight suit. Obviously, he was dressed up carefully, so let's take two more photos to give face to this director.

Watching Chen Musheng walk leisurely on the red carpet, the reporters unconsciously focused their eyes on the first section of the red carpet, but this time, in addition to expectation, there was also deep worry in their eyes.

Nie Wei would not walk the red carpet, right?

Or maybe he didn't come at all. With his current status, the crew couldn't say anything if he asked for leave temporarily.

Or is there another reason?

Such messy thoughts hovered in the minds of every reporter. No wonder they were not worried. After all, everything is possible. After two consecutive expectations were dashed, they were already a little nervous.

"Here they come again!" Suddenly, a voice sounded, and everyone immediately aimed their eyes at the beginning of the red carpet.

It was still a Mercedes-Benz car, and it still slowly stopped at the beginning of the red carpet. The car door still slowly opened, and a pair of black leather shoes appeared in the camera. Many reporters even had nervous Adam's apples at this moment, but when that person walked out, everyone felt refreshed.

The person they were waiting for finally came!

"Ah————!!!"

"Nie Wei, Nie Wei, Nie Wei!!!"

"You are our only one!"

Just as the reporters quickly pressed the shutter, and countless flashes shone, the screams of the fans at the scene also rang out, like a huge sound wave, bombarding the entire scene, making everyone even have an illusion at that moment that everyone in the audience seemed to have become Nie Wei's supporters.

Cai Zhuoyan also got off the car with Nie Wei. The fans' enthusiastic support really scared her and her feet softened. Fortunately, Nie Wei helped her not to make a fool of herself.

"Awesome." Cai Zhuoyan quickly adjusted her posture and walked towards the red carpet with Nie Wei's steps, while quietly sighing aside.

Nie Wei smiled slightly. The fans' enthusiastic cheers made him feel very useful in his heart. Isn't being a star for this shining moment?

And the reporters were even crazier than the fans around them.

Compared with the "business as usual" treatment of the previous two groups of people, Nie Wei's arrival made them fall into extreme enthusiasm.

"Mr. Nie Wei, please turn over here and take a look." When Nie Wei smiled and waved at them as requested by the media, the media immediately seized the opportunity.

While the colleagues over there were still taking pictures, they began to ask questions.

"Mr. Nie Wei, can you tell me how you became a shareholder of iFlytek?"

"Mr. Nie Wei, did you buy your shares from Mr. Li Zhekai?"

"Nie Wei, your net worth has exceeded 3 billion Hong Kong dollars. Do you have anything to say about this? Will this sudden money bring changes to your life?"

"Nie Wei..."

Faced with the fierce questions from dozens of reporters, Nie Wei remained unmoved, smiled and waved, and after a short pause, he turned around and continued to walk the red carpet with a steady pace and full of aura.

"Alas, he really didn't answer." Looking at Nie Wei's back, a reporter sighed.

"Forget it, it's something I expected a long time ago, but there will be a press conference after the premiere, and there will be a chance then." Another reporter said.

If it were an ordinary little star, he would have been on the blacklist of these reporters at this moment, but facing Nie Wei who had just created a miracle of wealth, all the reporters present showed an unprecedented tolerance.

However, compared with his businesslike attitude towards reporters, Nie Wei treated fans with the same enthusiasm as always, and even shook hands with several children around the red carpet, which made the little girls very excited. One of them was even so excited that she burst into tears. This scene also made the reporters jealous, and they wished they could turn into fans and mix into that team.

After interacting with fans, the two walked to the entrance of the theater. Cai Zhuoyan walked in directly, while Nie Wei stayed at the entrance and greeted the next guests with Chen Musheng.

A premiere naturally cannot have only a few leading actors attending, especially since this movie is also Jackie Chan's. This big brother is famous for his wide network of contacts in the circle, and there are also many people who support him.

The first to come was Jackie Chan's senior brother Hong Jinbao, followed by Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Liu Jialing, Karen Mok, Liu Qingyun, Shu Qi, Sandra Ng and other well-known Hong Kong stars. Even Liu Dehua, who Nie Wei had met several times, came to the scene. These superstars who are rarely seen on weekdays gathered together at this moment, which is really a star-studded gathering. However, what is interesting is that every guest who walked to the door would greet Nie Wei first, as if Nie Wei standing at the door was the protagonist of the day, and Chen Musheng on the side became a foil instead.

The last two to appear were naturally the leading actors of the film, Cheng Long and Yang Caini. When they walked across the red carpet and arrived at the door, Cheng Long suddenly stopped and said with a smile, "I have a family party tonight, Nie Wei, are you free?"
