Why did the wife die in the movie "Love"? Zhang Chen: "Because her husband looked at Baidu, I'm going to put it on Li Yanhong's desk and ask her if she still wants Baidu to go public." Was "The Pursuit of Happyness" made solely for the Oscars? Zhang Chen: "This is a short-selling report on the US housing market." Winning awards is just superficial glory; box office revenue is just the money you see. Do you know how much I've made behind the scenes? You simply can't imagine!
