Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 273: Hard rub!

Many people believe that since Qiu Di poached Zhang Zhao and Xu Lin from Guangxian and did not cooperate with Guangxian on "Pacific Rim", it is impossible for the two companies to continue to cooperate.

But in fact, the cooperation between the two companies was not affected in any way.

Li Qiutang even promoted the glamorous production of "Painted Skin" for free on Weibo.

To be honest, he is really ruthless. There were seven or eight movies competing with him during the National Day holiday, but he didn't argue with anyone and just focused on "Legend of White Snake".

Juli is still a newcomer in the film and television industry, and Boss Yang is still a greenhorn!

Guangxian's attack on "Legend of the White Snake" seems a bit despicable to outsiders.

"Zhao Yazhi's White Snake is a fairy from heaven to earth, while Huang Shengyi is like a fairy from heaven to earth."

This attack power is really high.

But Huang Shengyi and Boss Yang endured it.

As a rookie, Boss Yang speaks and acts in a very high-profile manner.

"'White Snake' will use the same production team as the movie 'Avatar', with no upper limit on the investment amount, to create a 3D movie that belongs to the Chinese people." This was what he boasted before the release of "White Snake".

When the movie was attacked, he said angrily: "I have suspended all the crews that have not been formed, and I am studying the art of thick black, and I want to be a hero who fights against crime!"

But a staff member of Juli Media immediately denied it: "We have not received any clear notification that any film project has been shelved. I guess the boss is just speaking out of anger."

The crew of "Painted Skin" is of course the primary suspect, as the two films were released one day apart and both are oriental fantasy themes.

But "Painted Wall" remained silent.

But if you want to say that the netizens were wrong, the answer is no.

"White Snake" is indeed not very good, with poor special effects and poor acting.

Li Lianjie said half jokingly and half complainingly that he was tricked into acting in this play. He was originally supposed to play the guest role of Fahai, without any fighting scenes, and the filming would be completed in a few days. However, Fahai fought every day, and the filming time was dragged from a few days to more than two months.

Of course it's funny to talk about it at an event, but it's really not a very decent thing to do.

If director Cheng Xiaodong and producer Cui Baozhu were not both acquaintances of Li Lianjie, this matter would have caused a huge uproar in Juli.

But second brother, don’t laugh at your elder brother. “Painted Skin” is not a good thing either. Shuang’s appearance is really impeccable.

But now the audience has a high demand for blockbusters. No matter what it is, they will buy tickets if it is a blockbuster.

The performance of both movies is pretty acceptable.

"White Snake" earned nearly 10 million on the first day and had already earned more than 40 million before the holiday.

"Painted Skin" surpassed "White Snake" on the first day, closing at 1400 million.

This is because there is nothing interesting during the National Day holiday, which is why these two films are leading the pack.

"The Revolution of 1911", jointly produced by Changchun Film Studio, Shanghai Film Group and Yaolai, has a good reputation, but the audience seems to be tired of this kind of star-counting movie.

The main reason is that a movie called "The Founding of a Party" was released this year.

The holiday has not yet ended, and both leaders have announced that they have exceeded 100 million.

On this day, Li Qiutang told Liu Yifei that she was going to South Korea to attend the Busan Film Festival. "In Time" was finally confirmed to be released in South Korea, with Busan being the premiere stop.

Liu Yifei has a reaction to Korea: "Who should I go with?"

"Liu Ye, Jiang Wu, and Guo Li will all be there. And you're not free." To be honest, it was a bit of a bummer that the heroine wasn't there, not to mention that Liu Yifei also has a group of fans in Korea.

"I'm too busy here." After acting coquettishly, Liu Yifei said, "Be careful in Korea and don't let Korean women take advantage of you." Liu Yifei is very protective of her. Many actors want to be associated with a Jin Ke La like Li Qiutang.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in plastic surgery, you know that."

"So you mean I don't need plastic surgery?"

"Hey, don't take advantage of this issue." Li Qiutang said with a smile.

"Okay, I'm just kidding." Liu Yifei said with a smile.

The next day, Li Qiutang departed from Yanjing and took the same plane as him. Sitting next to him were the powerful Yang Zi and Huang Shengyi.

"Director Li, hello." Yang Zi greeted Li Qiutang enthusiastically, "Are you going to the Busan Film Festival as well?" "Yes, there are several events there." Since you can't hit someone who smiles at you, Li Qiutang just said a few polite words to him, "Are you going to promote it?"

"Yes, The Legend of White Snake is also a big seller in Korea." He started to act like a fool in less than two sentences, and handed over his business card, "Director, this is my business card."

Li Qiutang finally got to see the legendary Yang Zi's business card.

"My business card is custom made. Look, there is a stainless steel needle when you pull it out here, a nail file here, and a pair of small scissors here."

"That's quite creative." Li Qiutang said with a smile, "I don't have a business card, sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay, haha." Yang Zi smiled happily, "Who in the circle doesn't know you?"

The scene now was very awkward. Li Qiutang was sitting in his seat, while Yang Zi and Huang Shengyi were standing beside him and talking to him. The first-class cabin was very small, and now was the time for boarding passengers, with people coming and going. Whenever a passenger came, Yang Zi would give way to him, and he would not go back to his seat.

Li Qiutang was in a dilemma as to whether to sit or stand.

Yang Zi has already started boasting about how awesome Juli Media is: "We have reached a strategic cooperation with China Film Group, and we will work together to make many movies in the future. The film studios of directors Stanley Kwan and Hu Mei are also signed with our company."

"Please give way."

Yang Zi gave way.

"If you have a good project, Director Li, we can cooperate. We, Juli..."

"Sir, the plane is about to take off, could you please return to your seat?" the flight attendant urged.

Li Qiutang smiled and said, "You can sit back first. We are all going to Busan and we will have a chance to communicate."

"That's right, haha. I'll treat you when we get to Busan."

"Easy to say."

After the plane took off, Li Qiutang put on headphones and planned to take a nap.

On Yang Zi and Huang Shengyi's side, Huang Shengyi clearly saw that Li Qiutang didn't want to pay attention to them, so she said to Yang Zi: "Why did you say so much on the plane?"

Yang Zi said: "You don't understand. This is how business cooperation works. As long as he doesn't explicitly refuse, there is room for negotiation."

Two hours later, the plane landed in Incheon.

"Director Li, let's go to Busan together." I met Yang Zi again at the luggage carousel.

"I have to go to Seoul first, so it's not convenient for me to go with you." He and his assistant picked up their luggage and left.

Li Qiutang stayed in Seoul for one day and arrived at the venue of the Busan Film Festival half an hour before its opening the next day.

The starlight on the red carpet of the Busan Film Festival is really dim, and Korean local movie stars are more interested in the Daejong, Blue Dragon and Baeksang Arts Awards.

Foreign movie stars are not very enthusiastic about Busan, but this year the Chinese team did add a lot of luster to the red carpet.

Xu Ke came, Li Qiutang led a team and Fan Bingbing also came.

After the opening ceremony, the crew of "Time Planning Drama" invited Fan Bingbing, Xu Ke and his wife, Yang Ziqiong and others who arrived in Busan to have a midnight snack together.

"Director Li, nice to meet you again. Are you going for a midnight snack? That's great, we can go too. Let's go together. I'll treat you." Yang Zi appeared again.

Is it really a good idea to force yourself into a circle that you can’t fit into?

But Yang Zi must not disturb today’s midnight snack.

"No, there are many of us, so we won't disturb you."

"It's okay. It's lively here with so many people around. We finally meet each other abroad." It seemed that Yang Zi was trying to force his way in.

"Forget it," Li Qiutang was already a little unhappy, "No one else knows you, and it would be awkward to get together with you."

Now that things have come to this, if Yang Zi continues to take advantage of the situation, he would be ungrateful.

Yang Zi laughed dryly and said, "Let's have dinner together again when we have the chance. I have a few bottles of good wine in my collection and I will treat you then."

"There's a chance." Li Qiutang really needs to learn from the other person's ability to swallow his pride.
