Chapter 491 [Preparing for release](1/2)
The busy time always seems to be very short. Before we knew it, "Resident Evil" is about to be completed. More than a thousand hours of filming will be edited into a film and then passed the review association. Post-production issues are also a long journey.
However, even so, the shooting speed of "Resident Evil" has amazed many foreign staff. Such a blockbuster with an investment of nearly 100 million yuan will be completed in less than four months. This is really a very terrifying speed in Hollywood.
domestic.
As time approaches, the Spring Festival is coming.
For a Chinese, the Spring Festival is the most important day of the year. At this moment, the world will stage the world's largest population migration.
"Chunxia, have you called the boss and asked him if he would go home for the New Year this year?"
Xu's father sat in the living room and asked his wife.
Xu's father is a dull and introverted person. When Xu Chaohan returns home, he basically rarely communicates with his father, and Xu's father rarely talks with his son. Most of the time he sits quietly in the living room watching TV or newspapers, and then listens to the conversations of his family.
Not good at speaking.
However, Xu Chaohan did not go home during the Spring Festival last year. This year, it was two weeks before the Spring Festival, but Xu Chaohan still had no letters, which inevitably made the family feel a little anxious.
The blessings of the son, the changes that have taken place in the Xu family in the past two years have been earth-shaking. The old couple never dreamed that they would get old, but they enjoyed blessings, and every day they were like in dreams.
Some time ago, the couple was overwhelmed by the Internet, and the old couple felt uncomfortable. Now their son ran abroad and became a director. Many people thought it was nothing, but they felt very distressed to Cao Chunxia and his wife because they seemed to be wronged no matter how they looked at it.
However, during this period, the old couple was not idle either. My daughter-in-law Chen Qian is now taking care of her granddaughter. Cao Chunxia and her husband went to Nanhang, on the one hand, for a trip, and on the other hand, for a trip, they also wanted to see where the eldest daughter-in-law grew up.
"No, he is so busy now, so he didn't bother him."
After a pause, Cao Chunxia sighed and said, "What's the use of asking for so much money? She doesn't even have time to go home for the New Year--"
"Hey, this prodigal girl, you have money to burn you. Isn't it good for your son to have a promising future?"
To his wife, Xu's father said a lot: "If my son hadn't been good at it, could you live in such a big house?"
"I mean, as long as the money is enough, I hope my boss will get married and have a child, and my life will be perfect."
Cao Chunxia sighed and said with some loss.
There is no way, this is the concept of rural people, but Cao Chunxia now knows that her son is now a big star. Generally, big stars rarely get married early for the development of their careers. It seems that they want to see their son get married, and some wait.
"Are you so sad when you say this during the New Year?"
Dad Xu picked up the teacup and took a sip, then spit out a tea stem. Although he said that, after a while, Dad Xu couldn't help but sigh softly—

Xu Chaohan has indeed been very busy recently.
The filming of "Resident Evil" is coming to an end. After this period of time, he can get free.
The time for the "Oprah Talk Show" is approaching. Zhou Weiqing attaches great importance to this show and chooses clothing for Xu Chaohan early, making it as grand as getting married. Xu Chaohan doesn't care. He is just a casual person. For this show, the purpose is just to promote "Resident Evil".
With the popularity of "The Nights", many reporters and paparazzi have recently welcomed off-sets, but Xu Chaohan has not appeared in for interviews. On the one hand, he has no time. On the other hand, he still hopes to wait until the production of "Resident Evil" is completed before conducting publicity and interviews.
After all, it was the first time that he was directed and filmed by himself. Although Xu Chaohan looked confident on the surface, he was actually unsure.
but.
Recently, the box office share of "Jurassic Park" has been received, which may be a very happy thing for Xu Chaohan.
"Jurassic Park"'s total global box office, not including China, reached more than 700 million US dollars, and in China, it even achieved a box office of more than 5 billion yuan. As the largest investor, Xu Chaohan, after deducting dividends from theaters, producers and directors, had already paid interest taxes, Xu Chaohan's personal assets suddenly increased by nearly four times.
In other words, with the movie "Jurassic Park", Xu Chaohan's revenue reached more than 3 billion yuan. Of course, most of the revenue relies on the box office share in North America.
This year, Xu Chaohan's musical works copyright, especially Chen Lan's "Hello" mini album, and Zou Yueting's two popular divine songs, have easily exceeded the 5 billion mark.
However, some of the funds were used by Zhou Weiqing for investment. Although she was a fledgling in the investment field, even so, the industry she invested in was developing steadily. Now it can be said that Xu Chaohan has really created a miracle.
Just as the end of the year approached, the Forbes rich list of China under 30 was released in China, and there was also an elite list under 30.
According to Forbes' calculations, Xu Chaohan's personal assets have far exceeded 5 billion assets. Although Xu Chaohan can only rank 72 on the rich list, Xu Chaohan ranks sixth in the elite list under 30.
This list was in full swing as soon as it appeared in China.
Although the Internet has exploded in recent years, many hosts who often sell goods for billions and billions a day seem to be just an ordinary digital unit, but the Internet is virtual after all, and many people have some doubts about this number.
However, as a highly credible statistical list, the data it gives is the most recognized by the people.
More importantly, look at the rich and elites on the list. Almost ninety-nine percent are second-generation rich people, and they are born with golden spoons in their mouths. Compared with their fathers, the wealth these elites have seems not so exaggerated.
but.
Xu Chaohan is different.
As Xu Chaohan's influence rose, almost most people knew that Xu Chaohan's family background was almost poor, and it took him only two years to start from scratch and have assets of 5 billion.
If it were at the beginning of reform and opening up, everyone would still be able to accept this kind of wealth growth, but today, with the explosion of information and the social process so fast, this wealth growth is really a legend.
Without capital and family background, earning 5 billion in two years is not just equity valuation, but actual assets. Xu Chaohan is really just like his fans say, he is a chosen son.
At this moment, Xu Chaohan's value was clear, and the outside world seemed to criticize Xu Chaohan a lot.
As for the so-called black spots and scandals on Xu Chaohan, many people seemed to be able to accept it calmly at once.
It seems normal to have so much money and having some scandals, but if not, that's not normal.
Many young people even regard Xu Chaohan as an idol, believing that Xu Chaohan is a pure and inspiring representative. For a time, praise for Xu Chaohan on the Internet came towards him.
The Internet is like this, and the speed of changing faces is jaw-dropping.

As "Resident Evil" approaches, Xu Chaohan is also preparing for a surprise recently.
I have known Zhou Weiqing for two years, but in the past two years, the two have almost been inseparable, but the relationship has become more sincere and mellow as time goes by.
Zhou Weiqing is now 25 years old. Although her personality still looks as lively and innocent as a newly graduated college student, Xu Chaohan feels that she should indeed get married.
In fact, Xu Chaohan was not a very dedicated person at the beginning. He also liked to look at beauties and had his own aesthetic views. He also liked sexy and beautiful women. However, when someone who could match his heart was around him, he realized that those were not important.
The important thing is that there are people who you can't see her sadness, you will use everything to keep her smiling, and you will try your best to protect her.
And her own is Zhou Weiqing.
As the saying goes, a man stands at thirty.
Xu Chaohan is about to be 29.
Therefore, he hopes to have a home and a home that belongs entirely to him before he is 30 years old.
Therefore, Xu Chaohan is preparing his own plan during this period.
Zhou Weiqing had no idea about this.
She still shuttles between the crew and the Surrounding Company every day. As Xu Chaohan’s personal representative, Surrounding Company cooperates with the Surrounding Company and signs various documents, negotiates the release date, release scale, and planning and publicity of "Resident Evil".
Zhou Weiqing is familiar with this.
She is no longer the agent Xiaobai two years ago.
Xu Chaohan's development in the past two years is so fast that it is simply jaw-dropping. In order to catch up with Xu Chaohan's footsteps, Xu Chaohan also sees Zhou Weiqing's efforts. This girl is a very persistent person and will not give up. Instead, she is doing everything she can to help Xu Chaohan manage her work.
So many times, Xu Chaohan always feels that his identity as a girl is completely reversed, and he is somewhat like a male lead, inside and outside.
The most commendable thing is that this girl can now be called a strong woman, but in front of Xu Chaohan, she still maintained that cunning and naughty, and admired and trusted Xu Chaohan from the bottom of her heart.
This was a very happy and proud thing for Xu Chaohan.
In fact, isn’t Zhou Weiqing the same?
Xu Chaohan's love for her will not be different because of his change in status. She is recognized by the world as a genius. She has a net worth of billions since she started from scratch, but she still loves her an ordinary girl. Sometimes she is a little frightened and feels that she is dreaming.
When both of them feel that they are at a disadvantage in a relationship, they will do their best to maintain the relationship.

In a week approaching the Spring Festival.
"Resident Evil" has finally been completed.
Xiao Shujing and a group of staff also packed their bags and prepared to rush to the country.
Xu Chaohan and Zhou Weiqing stayed in San Francisco for a while.
On the one hand, there is the issue of the follow-up production of "Resident Evil", and on the other hand, Xu Chaohan will officially participate in the recording of "Oprah Talk Show".
However, for Xu Chaohan, the post-production editing of "Resident Evil" is the top priority now.
With the completion of "Resident Evil", Surround Vision officially started the promotion of "Resident Evil". In China, the movie "Resident Evil" was also jointly released and produced by Xu Chaohan Studio and Meilong Media Film and Television Production Company.
This is also the first time that Xu Chaohan has completely gotten rid of the cooperation between the three major domestic media companies.
Yi Tianhua, who learned this news, regretted it.
Xu Chaohan's decision also caused Huacai Entertainment's stock price to fall by 7 percentage points in an instant.
This is Xu Chaohan's influence.
Huacai Entertainment had tricked Chen Lan before. Although the cooperation between Chen Lan and Huacai is still within the deadline, as Chen Lan's student, Xu Chaohan's decision was obviously to vent his anger on his teacher, so the Internet applauded Xu Chaohan's decision.
In order to save 20 million yuan in Huacai Entertainment, all the compensation was borne by Chen Lan alone. At this time, it was completely a brainless act of losing watermelon and picking up sesame seeds.
Now, although I don’t know what the final effect of "Resident Evil" directed by Xu Chaohan is, relying on the surrounding view of the eight major Hollywood film and television companies, the overseas distributor of this movie, everyone knows that this movie will not lose money.
The words Hollywood movies are now the guarantee of box office.
