Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 114 She slandered me!
Many people don’t know that there is a room in Liu Yifei’s house specially reserved for Shu Chang, and the relationship between the two is so good that Shu Chang can call Liu Xiaoli "Xiaoli Mom".

But today, the two of them did not sleep in separate rooms. Shu Chang squeezed into Liu Yifei's bed.

When you meet a great director, you naturally have to talk about it.

"How come he is so amazing? He is only a few years older than us, but how can he make so many good movies?" During Shu Chang's peak two years, she was no worse than Liu Yifei in the TV drama market, but it was very, very difficult for her to make it in the movie market. "You are his classmate. Was he so amazing when he was in school?"

Liu Yifei had no idea what Li Qiutang was like in school. In her four years of college, she spent less than six months in school in total. She didn't even live on campus and didn't even have a roommate.

Liu Yifei said honestly: "I wasn't very familiar with him when I was in school, we just took a few classes together and knew each other.

"On the contrary, after graduation, we bump into each other from time to time."

In fact, Shu Chang was similar. During college, she spent several times more time on the crew than in school.

I don't know why she applied to the Foreign Languages College.

Shu Chang suddenly made a judgment about Li Qiutang: "I think he is quite good at it."

Liu Yifei said: "I think he is quite honest."

"Being cunning doesn't mean you can't have fun. Aren't there many people like that in the entertainment industry?"

This is true.

Shu Chang continued, "Look, he's been in the industry for almost three years, and he's had scandals with Qin Lan and Gao Yuanyuan, both of whom are beauties in the industry."

"That's right." Liu Yifei thought about it and felt that what her best friend said made sense.

Shu Chang smiled and said, "I've dated you before."

"Oh, I just treated him to a meal of dumplings and asked him something. Who spends less than 50 yuan on a date? The reporter wrote something nonsense." Liu Yifei refused to accept it.

Of course Shu Chang knew that the two of them were fine and were just joking.

He also said: "He even had a quarrel with Feng Xiaogang. Which new director would dare to do that?"

Liu Yifei has her own opinion: "He just debuted and is a director. If he is not competitive, how can he stay in this circle?" Even Liu Yifei knows to fight back against playing the piano by fluffing cotton. If Li Qiutang did not fight back when Feng Xiaogang scolded him like that, Liu Yifei would look down on him.

Shu Chang agreed with Liu Yifei's statement. This is how it is in this circle. You need to have the ability to do things and the right character. If you just bury your head in work, you will end up being taken advantage of.

"He also formed a band and played music." Shu Chang continued, "I don't need to tell you who played in the band. He must love to play."

If Li Qiutang knew what Shu Chang said about her, she would definitely fight back: "She slandered me, she slandered me!"

But what Shu Chang said was true, there are no honest people in a band!

Liu Yifei defended Li Qiutang: "Don't dwell on history. He is a director and he is so successful now. What you said is just a small matter."

Liu Yifei also thought that Li Qiutang might play around after hearing what her best friend said, but when she thought about it, it was normal for such a successful young director to be surrounded by so many temptations and he was single.

Shu Chang joined the crew earlier than Liu Yifei. At a young age, she has seen everything and knows the rules of the entertainment industry - as long as your work is strong enough, personal problems will not be a problem.

The two sisters chatted for more than an hour before falling asleep.

…………As a Peking Opera-themed art film, "Mei Lanfang" had a box office of 1450 million on the first day. This has to be said to be a miracle!
This also shows how much the market expects from Chen Kaige.

After "Farewell My Concubine", Chen Kaige once again took on a Peking Opera theme, which was a big gimmick.

I have to say, "Farewell My Concubine" really gave Chen Kaige a lot of fame!
Coupled with the indiscriminate distribution of 1400 copies across the country, this achievement does not seem so difficult to understand.

After the first weekend, "Mei Lanfang" took in 4000 million at the box office, and some theater managers even predicted that the total box office of the film could reach 2 million.

I have to emphasize again that this is an art film! And it is a Peking Opera theme!
This achievement is really amazing.

In comparison, "Women Don't Die" grossed 1300 million in its first weekend, which was a slap in the face of the old monster when he shouted the slogan of breaking 3000 million in the early promotion; "Ip Man" grossed million in its first weekend, which was enough to comfort the creators.

"Wolf Tooth"? The first day's box office in the mainland was 200 million, and the first day's box office in Hong Kong was 24 Hong Kong dollars. Wu Jing started to play the sympathy card, saying how difficult it was for him to make his way in Hong Kong alone over the years, and that he became a director just to give a satisfactory answer to the audience friends who supported him.

But the market didn't seem to buy it, and "Wolf Tooth" only earned 500 million in its first weekend. This result can be used to announce in advance that "Wolf Tooth" will withdraw from the Lunar New Year box office. Wu Jing's transformation failed at the very beginning.

Just after the second weekend of the Lunar New Year holiday, Huayi suddenly announced that "If You Are the One", which was originally scheduled to be released on the 28th, would be moved up to the 18th!
This is out of this world!
The crews of "Mei Lanfang", "Women Are Not Bad" and "Ip Man" are going to curse!
You are not such a bully!
But Huayi and Feng Xiaogang don’t care. The scene has become hot and I’m going to reap the benefits.

But it’s hard to say that Huayi did anything wrong in this matter.

The Lunar New Year market is so huge that all the companies are already in competition with each other. Huayi’s plan to advance the schedule is to defeat the other companies.

The advance release date of If You Are the One disrupted the promotional rhythm of the other three films.

The cinema hosting the premiere of If You Are the One actually sent an invitation to Li Qiutang, wanting to invite him to the premiere.

The idea of causing trouble is too obvious.

It's not that Li Qiutang and Feng Xiaogang have any deep hatred and will never have any contact with each other again, but it is better for them not to meet each other again for now.

Of course Li Qiutang declined the invitation.

Even though Li Qiutang did not show up, someone still "brought" him to the premiere.

There was a reporter who wanted to stir up trouble and asked Feng Xiaogang at the scene: "Do you still think that Li Qiutang's movies are not good?"

Just standing there straight!
Today's journalists are so brave.

Feng Xiaogang's temper could not stand being provoked by such a reporter. His face turned black and swear words were on his lips: "Whose reporter are you? Who invited you here? How can you ask such a stupid question!"

What they wanted was Feng Xiaogang scolding people. The reporter also said, "It is said that we wanted to invite Director Li Qiutang to the premiere this time, but he refused. Did you know about this?"

How did this reporter get this information?
But Feng Xiaogang really didn't know about this! How could Feng Xiaogang know who was hired by the cinema to host the film?

Seeing Feng Xiaogang about to curse, Ge You quickly said, "Reporter, you should leave first. We are at the movie premiere today and it is not convenient to talk about other things."

Ge You has already spoken, and if the reporter doesn't cover it up, he would be ungrateful.

With the release of If You Are the One, the verbal battle between Li and Feng half a year ago was brought up again by the media and the audience.

But after all, half a year has passed, and not many people are willing to take sides.
