Time flies.

In full swing, nearly half a year has passed.

It was the middle of summer 2004.

The seeds that Jin Jingcheng sowed a year ago have grown into a relatively dense green shade by this time.

The first is the movie "Ghost Shadow", as Jin Jingcheng predicted, this movie not only sold very hot DVDs, but also created a very high box office miracle, becoming a typical horror film with a small investment and a big return.

This movie earned nearly 200 million US dollars, and the total amount that fell into Jin Jingcheng's personal account was only 20 million US dollars, in addition to the sharing of theaters and other aspects, some people were also given various profit sharing in the process, which is also helpless, if it were not, it is estimated that this movie has not been released now.

As a director, Oren Pelly also got a lot of money, but it is equivalent to the history of Jin Jingcheng's previous life, and Oren Pelly was ruthlessly "pitted" by Jin Jingcheng, and in terms of honor, he only won the honorary mention of the Screaming Film Festival, and lost the American Independent Spirit Award in the history of Jin Jingcheng's previous life.

The American Independent Spirit Award is given to independent filmmakers, and in the history of Jin Jingcheng's previous life, Oren Pelly completed "Ghost Shadow" with full authority, so he won the award, and now he is just a director.

The copyright of the second sequel to "Ghost Shadow" has also been sold by Jin Jingcheng for nine million dollars, and Jin Jingcheng does not have to participate in anything for this sequel, nor does he need to write the script, so he obtained nine million dollars by relying on the copyright.

In other words, "Ghost Shadow" alone made Jin Jingcheng earn $29 million in one year

If "Ghost Shadow" is a green shade planted by Jin Jingcheng, then the results of the two songs "If-I-Die-Young" and "Tonight-I-wanna-cry" are a little unintentional by Jin Jingcheng, which can be described as an unintentional insertion of willows and willows.

"Tonight-I-wanna-cry" not only appeared on the most famous Billboard (Billboard) of the American music charts, but also on the chart for 20 weeks, peaking at No. 36 at one time.

The results of "If-I-Die-Young" are even more staggering.

"If-I-Die-Young" not only sold well on Itunes, sold double platinum, but also achieved the top position on the country song chart, with a top ranking of 14th on Billboard, and was generally praised by the public, with the most common comment being that the whole song is not only full of youthful fantasy and deep connotation, but also full of country atmosphere, natural and fresh, which makes people shine!

Professor Wilson still expressed regret for Jin Jingcheng, because according to Wilson's estimates, the song is likely to be nominated for the 2004 Grammy for Best Country Song.

This is only because it did not release a single album until the end of 2003, and the 2004 Grammy Awards are not considered for all outstanding sound recordings (including music videos) released nationwide between October 1, 2002 and September 30, 2003, with the exception of If-I-Die-Young.

It doesn't matter, missed the 2004 Grammys, and the 2005 Grammys are waiting.

More practically, "If-I-Die-Young" and "Tonight-I-wanna-cry" brought Jin Jingcheng a lot of income. Including the copyright fee, in just one year, Jin Jingcheng earned two million dollars through these two songs. As the music producer of the two songs and the person in charge of publicity and distribution, Wilson naturally got a lot of money.

Because he was unwilling to be exposed, Jin Jingcheng had to refuse some ensuing public performances and some commercial performances and announcements, and was unwilling to temporarily spend time and energy in this area, resulting in the loss of a lot of income.

However, there are also benefits, because this mysticism has aroused the curiosity of more people, and invisibly promoted the rapid spread of the two songs.

What's more, since the two songs are popular, they will definitely continue to bring Jin Jingcheng income in copyright and other aspects in the future.

In fact, the success of the two songs "If-I-Die-Young" and "Tonight-I-wanna-cry" cannot be said to be completely unintentional by Jin Jingcheng, after all, he has long been convinced that these are two good songs, and these two songs were very popular in his previous life, so when Jin Jingcheng wanted to release them publicly, he had some thoughts in his heart, but he didn't reveal it.

Jin Jingcheng has long felt that these two songs are likely to be popular, but the results are much better than he originally thought, one reason is the promotion of his mysticism, under mysticism, a singer who neither reveals photos nor uses his real name suddenly appeared, and released two singles at once, and each of them is very good, if the results are not good, then hell.

The success of movies, the success of music, and the continuous rapid development and expansion of Facebook have made the current Jin Jingcheng happily enter the situation of "blooming green shade everywhere".

If Jin Jingcheng could still remain calm in the face of the achievements he achieved half a year ago, and quietly put excitement and excitement in his heart, then now he has lost this calmness, and under a strong excitement and excitement, he has a little smugness.

This is also human nature, although Jin Jingcheng has a past life, but now he is only twenty-one years old, not to mention that in his previous life, he was so eager for these money and glory, but it was out of reach, and now he suddenly has it, how can he not be proud of himself?

Fortunately, Jin Jingcheng still did not lose his steady, and that little bit of smugness was discovered and restrained by him in time, and he told himself in his heart: "Such an achievement is still too far from my goal in this life!"

It's just a little smug, and overall, Jin Jingcheng is definitely a very stable and resolute person.

This can be seen from the fact that he remained mystic.

His mysticism is maintained very well, not only on the songs "If-I-Die-Young" and "Tonight-I-wanna-cry", but also on the writers and producers of "Ghost Record", but he is also signed by mrJin.

This is also one of the reasons why the two songs and "Ghost Shadow" have become popular so quickly, the former and the latter are both significantly related to mrJin, and they are more and more able to arouse the public's curiosity and attention.

The public, as well as many media outlets, have been desperately waiting for mrJin to come out of the curtain of mysticism in recent times, and everyone thinks that since the music and film works are so popular, it is natural for mrJin to go to the screen to enjoy this glory that belongs to him, but the result is unexpected.

Jin actually did not appear in front of the scene, and he resolutely kept his thoughts and waited steadily.

For this reason, some occasions that need to be presented, especially in the media, such as the copyright signing ceremony for the sale of the second part of the sequel to "Ghost Shadow", Kim actually asked Jose to act as his agent.

Jin Jingcheng himself has devoted a lot of time and experience to various studies, including practicing martial arts with Master Tang, and in addition, he has continued to follow and control Facebook.

A few days ago, Jin Jingcheng made the third capital injection into Facebook as needed, and this time the amount of capital injection increased tenfold at once, and Jin Jingcheng injected 10 million US dollars at once, which made him sigh once again that Facebook was really a domineering money-burning machine in the early stage.

But Jin Jingcheng is not very distressed anymore, because he seems to be numb, and because he is sure that every investment in Facebook now will be rewarded thousands of times in the near future.

……

"Everywhere is full of greenery!"

At this time, this sentence was being drunk from Jin Jingcheng's mouth, and his body was standing in the courtyard of the Tang Clan Martial Arts Hall in Chinatown at the moment.

Jin Jingcheng was practicing martial arts in a corner of the courtyard.

His body shook rapidly, and he held a sharp weapon in one hand, constantly waving it with a whining sound, and the sharp weapon constantly reflected a blinding cold light under the scorching sun of this afternoon.

The cold light is not big, because the sharp weapon itself is not big, however, it hides terrifying lethality!

With Jin Jingcheng's martial arts, a small tree beside him, a clump of leaves on the branches that were originally thick, was cut off one by one by the sharp weapon in his hand, and after a flutter, it was piled up into a thick layer under his feet, like a green shade blooming from the earth.

In the courtyard, several disciples of Master Tang wearing practice clothes were originally practicing martial arts in their own hands, but now they couldn't help but quietly walked near Jin Jingcheng and secretly watched, but they didn't dare to get too close, for fear of being affected by that small sharp weapon.

These people all admired in their hearts, Jin Jingcheng a year ago, was not taken into their eyes in terms of kung fu, so that they were a little disdainful when they saw Jin Jingcheng, but now, a year later, they can't help but be attracted by Jin Jingcheng's martial arts practice, on the one hand, because Jin Jingcheng's martial arts are improving quickly, and on the other hand, his weapons are very special.

That's a folding knife!

Folding knife, a kind of knife, foldable, mainly in the front end of the knife handle in the way of pivot formation, pivot one can be screwed into the cutter body in it, the cutter body is provided with a safety buckle relative to the side of the cutter body, and the rear end of the cutter body is provided with an elastic strip.

Folding knives are excellent for carrying and safety, but they also have structural weaknesses, the first is poor strength and durability, and the second is that it takes a certain amount of time to reach a usable state from storage.

However, the folding knife in Jin Jingcheng's hand avoided these weaknesses,

This folding knife is a gift from Master Tang to Jin Jingcheng a year ago, that is, the things wrapped in that small package, which were handed down by Master Tang's ancestors, can be described as a fine product, with good strength and durability.

Although this folding knife is relatively old, it does not look very old, the handle gives people an antique feeling, and the knife body is particularly sharp and cold.

Moreover, this folding knife is exquisitely made, and Jin Jingcheng has practiced it proficiently, as long as he rubs his thumb lightly, the blade will pop out, reducing the time it takes from storage to use.

There are many types of folding knives.

There are automatic knives that open the blade by pushing buttons or push rods, also known as switchblades, gravity knives that are unsheathed by their own weight, and inertial knives that can be opened with a flick of the wrist......

Jin Jingcheng's folding knife belongs to the category of manual knives.

Right now, Jin Jingcheng is so devoted to the practice of folding knives that he doesn't care about the fellow disciples around him who are secretly paying attention to him, even if the phrase "green shade blooms everywhere" that he couldn't help but drink just now does not refer to his current achievements in his career, but a realm of martial arts training.

This realm was assigned to him by Master Tang, saying that when he could practice the folding knife under the small tree to the extent that he could make a green shade bloom under his feet, it meant that he was already familiar with the weapon of the folding knife and this kung fu skill.

Now he did.

However, Master Tang also designated Jin Jingcheng a higher realm.

That's "fold to stretch"!

Regarding this heavy realm, Jin Jingcheng was a little confused before, but he had some vague clues, but he failed to integrate these scattered clues, and then came to a clearer conclusion.

At this moment, Jin Jingcheng seemed to suddenly understand something.

"Fold to stretch!"

Jin Jingcheng couldn't help but drink this sentence, but the difference from just now was that after he drank "green shade blooming everywhere" just now, he was practicing folding knives more and more powerfully, and now, after he drank "folding to stretch", he suddenly stopped practicing, from a high-frequency state of martial arts training, to a quiet static.

Jin Jingcheng stood tall above the fallen leaves under the small tree, as if it were a hard sculpture.

This scene happened to be seen by Master Tang, who came over.

"Well, you've finally realized a little bit of meaning again!"

Master Tang admired as he walked in front of Jin Jingcheng.

PS: The American foreshadowing plot at the beginning is coming to an end, and the protagonist's foundation is laid to go back to South Korea......!
