Huayu: When the director changed his major

Chapter 167 Premiere and Sweetie's Intersection

"Then I wish Director Lu all the best, and hope his next film can make over 100 million yuan. Thank you!"

After Cheng Xi said this, he got rid of the reporters and started to take his seat.

The premiere of the national teacher is different.

Held in the CPPCC auditorium.

Reporters and celebrities from home and abroad attended the premiere, which was also called the World Premiere.

It was broadcast live on CCTV-6, and it was also the first premiere in China to be broadcast live by CCTV.

Compared to the premiere he held in Jiangcheng, Cheng Xi felt like he was playing house.

I thought it was quite lively before, but now I can only say two words:
Shabby.

Cheng Xi looked at the long performance program in his hand. Although he thought it was grand, he also felt that it was a bit too gaudy.

Most of the people in the industry who attended the premiere today felt honored to be invited.

Those who can come here are either well-off or have strong connections.

Or someone like Bai Xue, who is an actor in "The Flowers of War".

So, after Cheng Xi sat down, he was surprised to find that the person sitting on his left was Jing Tian.

This should be considered a strong relationship.

No one noticed her coming.

When Jing Tian saw herself, she was also surprised, but more of a delight.

After all, he is an acquaintance, his junior fellow student, and the director of the hit movie "Life Events".

"Cheng Xi!"

"Sweetheart!"

"Call Senior Sister!"

"Oh. Senior Sister Tiantian."

Cheng Xi looked at the person next to Jing Tian. It was the actress who had just greeted him, not the one behind Xing Han Canlan.

Thinking that I was away from home and wanted to give my senior sister some face, I just responded casually.

“I saw your movie ‘Life Events’ and it was so well made!”

"I also watched your film 'Warring States'. It wasn't shot very well, but you are very beautiful."

After hearing what Cheng Xi said, Jing Tian didn't know whether to be happy or angry.

He couldn't help but punch Cheng Xi.

"You really are very harsh with your words."

"I praised my senior sister and you hit me!"

Jing Tian is wearing a sexy black evening dress with a slit today.

Her long wavy hair is combed to one side, revealing Bai Jie's shoulders and back on the other side, portraying a cunning and sly person.

She wore strappy high heels and her exposed toes were painted with red nail polish.

Da Tiantian is very fair to begin with, and Cheng Xi finds her beautiful legs and little feet exposed by the slit in her skirt particularly attractive.

The black and white combination further highlights her skin tone and temperament.

Cheng Xi's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a little.

"Honestly, I didn't expect 'Warring States' to do so poorly at the box office. Why did 'Life Events' do so well at the box office?"

"Next time you have a good movie, please consider me. I can bring in funds to the production and relieve you of some financial pressure."

Wow, rich women always speak differently.

There's someone behind you.

If it were me who took over, I would consider giving the role to you.

So Cheng Xi said:

"Sweetheart, can't we talk about something other than movies?"

"what?"

Outside of movies.
Jing Tian suddenly remembered their last QQ chat, when Cheng Xi seemed to be flirting with her intentionally or unintentionally.

I didn't expect you to come in person again this time.

I heard that this young talented director, who is also my junior fellow student, is a bit lustful.

The studio only signs pretty girls.

Don't be fooled by his harmless appearance and sunny and handsome smile. You don't know how much harm he has done to you.

But it's normal, after all, he is at that age when he is full of vigor and vitality.

Being willing to provide resources is very generous.

At this time, the lights in the audience seats had gone out and the performance began on the stage.

Cheng Xi was bored watching these outdated programs and thought it would be more fun to tease Xiao Tiantian.

So he said:

"Why do we have to make our pure relationship so vulgar? We can talk about something simple between men and women."

Jing Tian was a little confused again. Talking about movies seemed vulgar, but talking about the relationship between men and women seemed simple.

"What's the difference between men and women? To me, you're just a little brother. Don't flirt with me, your sister. You can't control me."

What little brother? Maybe I am the big brother.

As for whether you can grasp it or not, it depends on whether you give you the opportunity to grasp it.

So the two of them chatted casually.

Cheng Xi made Xiao Tiantian laugh again, and as usual, Xiao Tiantian raised her hand to hit herself.

But this time Cheng Xi was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and he grabbed Jing Tian's little hand in one go.

Hmm, quite tender and soft.

Xiao Tiantian was stunned for a moment, her face turned red, and then she tried to pull her hand out.

Unexpectedly, I couldn't break free.

Just when she was about to say something, Cheng Xi quickly let her go.

This pulling and releasing made Jing Tian feel up and down in her heart.

on purpose?
Or is it intentional?
The performance on stage was still going on.

Cheng Xi saw Jing Tian's face blushing, and he wanted to tease her even more, so he moved closer to Jing Tian and whispered:

"Sister Tiantian, do you still remember giving up your seat for me?"

"Actually, I had a crush on you the first time I saw you. You're beautiful, gentle, and kind. At that time, I thought how wonderful it would be if I could find a girlfriend like you."

Jing Tian felt a tingling sensation in her ears as she listened to these ambiguous words that seemed neither teasing nor flirting.

Her earlobes felt hot, and she responded:
"Cheng Xi, tell me honestly, how many girls have you deceived like this?"

When Cheng Xi heard this, he thought there was a chance. He asked this question because he was interested.

If you don't feel it, you will move aside when you get close to it.

Not to mention, he would ask such sour questions.

"With my face, why would I need to lie? Apart from lying to you like this, I tell everyone else directly."

"I knew you were a little pervert, and you have bad intentions towards me."

"Hey, you discovered this."

"Bah, you admitted it directly. How shameless!"

Jing Tian heard Cheng Xi's shameless behavior, but she didn't feel greasy. Instead, she thought this junior brother was quite interesting.

He is talented and handsome.

Unlike others who like themselves and pretend to like themselves.

Especially after I signed with a company, few men flirt with me like this.

Everyone will weigh the weight behind them.

So it was a very novel experience.

In his previous life, Cheng Xi had always heard that Xiao Tiantian was being promoted by Lu Zheng of Xing Han Canlan Company.

There are all kinds of rumors, such as Xiao Tiantian has a strong background and Lu Zheng is a white glove.

There are also people saying that she comes from an ordinary background and is just a rich girl kept by a big boss.

But what Cheng Xi didn’t understand was that since he was a big boss, he had to raise a rich flower.

Is it necessary to keep him in the dirty entertainment circle? It will only make you uncomfortable.

Besides, it would be too eye-catching if a star is promoted so much, which doesn't fit the temperament of a real boss.

Anyway, it's passed around and there's all kinds of news.

But the only thing we know is that the line did break later.

I took on the role in "Sito" after meeting someone named Zhang.

But Cheng Xi didn't think too much about it, he was just joking anyway.

Since my senior sister is nice to me, I just need to prevent her from meeting someone named Zhang.

If you really want to take a video, I can do it for you.

After all, I am a film director now.

Shooting videos is a professional job.

Soon, the premiere's appetizers and film introductions were over. We took a break and then returned to watch "The Flowers of War."

When he came back, Cheng Xi clearly saw that Jing Tian had touched up her makeup and the smell of her perfume was a little stronger.

She told me not to flirt with her, but her body was quite honest.

The movie started and Cheng Xi watched for a while and felt a little bored.

One reason was because of Bai Xue, I went to support this movie as soon as it was released.

Second, to be honest, this movie is not that good.

Of course three, the perfume of the beauty next to me interfered with my thinking.

Originally, Cheng Xi thought that he was definitely focused and it was all Jing Tian's fault.

The faintly visible white and cute little feet are so seductive.

So Cheng Xi took a deep breath of Jing Tian's fragrance, making himself more intoxicated.

"Senior Sister, you smell so good."

When Jing Tian heard her junior praising her like this, she couldn't help but feel happy.

This time the dress-up was not in vain, the perfume was also carefully selected.

The slit of Jing Tian's evening dress was just on Cheng Xi's side, and her jade-white thighs were exposed.
Cheng Xi first looked around and saw that everyone, including Jing Tian, ​​was watching the movie seriously.

Suddenly Cheng Xi made a bold decision.

Since my senior sister has a good impression of me, it doesn’t matter if I’m a little bolder.

Opportunities are earned by oneself.

So he picked up the water at hand and pretended to take a sip, then let his hand hang down.

It seemed like I accidentally touched Jing Tian's thigh, and it felt really smooth.

Jing Tian also felt it immediately, but when she saw Cheng Xi, she naturally took her hand back.

I was watching the movie seriously and thought it was an accident.

But unexpectedly, after a while, Cheng Xi actually reached out his hand and placed it on his leg.

this.
Jing Tian looked around and then glanced at Cheng Xi. This junior brother is so brave!

in public
I was just about to push his weird hand away.

But unexpectedly, Cheng Xi came over and said:

"Sweetheart, there's a hair on your leg. I'll remove it for you."

"oh oh."

So that's how it is. Am I overthinking it?

But after a while, the hand reached out again.

Jing Tian: “.”

"Senior sister, you have a lot of hair."

I am such a good person and my senior sister is also kind, she should not reject my kindness, right?
So after removing several non-existent hairs, Cheng Xi finally just stayed there and refused to leave.

She is indeed a beautiful and elegant woman in the world.

These legs that feel like petals are so comfortable to touch.

In addition to the movements with his hands, Cheng Xi also started to interfere with the conversation with words.

The main goal is to confuse the rich girl.

"Sweetheart, do you think we are destined to be together?"

"Ok?"

"I sat in your seat when we first met, and this time we sat together again."

Jing Tian recalled the scene of their first meeting and then thought about the present, it seemed like there was some fate between them.

"They say that those who are destined to meet will meet even after thousands of miles. When will our paths cross?"

"what?"

At the intersection? What a lewd and treacherous statement!
"Just come back to school sometime and play with me."

Oh, this intersection.
"Senior Sister, your legs are a little cold."

"But don't thank me, I'm a warm man."

After saying that, Cheng Xi actually grinned at Jing Tian.

Jing Tian: “.”

Jing Tian had never seen such an open and aboveboard gangster.

However, the air conditioning here is indeed a bit low.

Cheng Xi's hands were big, and waves of heat were transmitted through them, making him feel warm.

A little bit.
I shook my head, didn't think too much about it, and just didn't go into it any further. I'll just watch the movie.

Cheng Xi also felt that the movie was moving a little too fast.

It was over in no time, but I still had a good time.

The next day, news about the premiere of "The Flowers of War" dominated the headlines of major websites.

There is also constant discussion on Weibo, with people speculating whether the box office of the national director's movie can exceed 1 billion.

This can also be considered as publicity for the National Day release today.

Cheng Xi was of course no exception. He not only deliberately pushed the interview video that mocked Lu Chuan yesterday to the top of the trending list.

He also asked the reporter for the negative of the photo with Zhang Yimou, the one in which he was hugging himself.

Both of them were tied together and promoted behind "The Flowers of War".

Director Zhang’s new movie is a hot commodity right now, and you’d be foolish not to take advantage of it.

What's more, these are all real facts and are much more reliable than those tabloids that write nonsense based on hearsay.

This time, Cheng Xi's response to Lu Chuan's exchange of words, "I hope Director Lu's next movie will make over 100 million yuan", made netizens sigh at Cheng Xi's sharp tongue.

“Isn’t this a blessing?”

"There's no way his box office will break 100 million this time!"

Lu Chuan was also very angry when she saw the questions and answers from the interviewing reporter.

This is taking advantage of my illness to kill me, and I won’t be able to shoot my next movie properly.

"Director Lu, why don't we thank your junior brother? Maybe it will attract some traffic."

Lu Chuan's team continued to give considerate advice.

"Impossible. If I were to thank him, I would probably thank eight generations of his ancestors."

Not long after, Director Lu was so sad that he could not even cry when he looked at his box office sales.

I could only write a line of words on Weibo with tears in my eyes:

Lu Chuan:
Thank you for the blessing, Junior Brother Cheng. Everyone, don’t listen to the rumors from outside!

Our brotherhood is stronger than gold.

When Cheng Xi saw Lu Chuan's words in the studio, he couldn't hold it in.

He burst out laughing.

This Lu Chuan is still a fun-loving person.

Netizens were also amused by Lu Chuan's self-memory erasing technique.

So I found Lu Chuan’s previous Weibo posts criticizing Cheng Xi, although he had deleted a lot of them.

But many netizens knew about this and had already taken screenshots for safekeeping.

So netizens compiled a collection for Director Lu Chuan, making it into a picture and text version.

They left comments on Lu Chuan and Zui Bai’s Weibo.

From cultural tragedy to a bond stronger than gold, it only took three months. The friendship really developed too quickly.

Low-quality, highly alkaline films are thriving, while high-quality, weakly acidic films are now playing the fool!

[Don't mention it, Director Lu is also a fun guy and has brought us a lot of joy, even though his movies are a mess.]

[+1 to the above. Without Director Lu's online crosstalk, I've been left with nowhere to entertain myself these past few months. But forget about supporting the movie, we can't stomach your Hongmen shit feast.]

As for the photo of Zhang Yimou hugging Cheng Xi, most media interpreted it from the perspective of new and old directors.

At most, I can praise Cheng Xi and say that he has the potential to become a famous director in the future.

But Cheng Xi asked Jin Xiaoluo to push the PK news between "Life Events" and "The Flowers of War".

Or talk about the possibility that the two people in the photo will fight on National Day.

After Zuibai finished fighting with his senior from the directing department, he is now going to fight with his senior from the photography department.

Although the public will not think that a show like "Life Events" can dare to compete with the national master.

But it is indeed a very good gimmick that can add some heat to the movie.

So why not?

Besides, although everyone thinks that I can’t compare with the national teacher.

But in terms of the box office, "The Flowers of War" suffered huge losses.

Perhaps, "Life Events" is not as powerless as everyone thinks.

It all depends on people!
Cheng Xi thought.
