My singer girlfriend is super fierce

At the promotional event for "The Host," director Bong Joon-hyun's firm response earned him applause from many.

There were media outlets from competitors present, a situation the other side did not want to see, and reporters soon continued to press the issue.

"Director Feng, it's said that the special effects for the movie 'The Host' were produced in collaboration with a technical team from China. Is that true?"

Feng Junxian nodded, not denying it, but the other party immediately pressed for an answer.

"Can you explain why?"

"It is well known that the world's best special effects companies are in the West. Does this mean that the production team lacked funds, thus reducing the quality of the film's special effects?"

This question made everyone on the crew nervous again.

The South Korean film and television industry is highly Westernized, with Hollywood serving as the benchmark. Special effects for local films are generally achieved through collaboration with Hollywood special effects teams.

The collaboration between a Chinese special effects team and a film like "The Host" is unprecedented and certainly attracts a lot of attention.

Feng Junxian's expression remained unchanged, but he was inwardly complaining.

He also wanted to use a top-notch Hollywood special effects team, but SG Entertainment controlled the project, so he had no choice.

At first, he had some doubts about the technical capabilities of this Chinese special effects team, but as the cooperation deepened, these doubts were dispelled.

Whether special effects are good or bad is immediately obvious.

He discovered that this Chinese team's professional capabilities were in no way inferior to those of Hollywood teams! Moreover, they weren't as fussy as those arrogant white men, and their efficiency was on a completely different level.

Facing the camera, Feng Junxian said in a deep voice: "First of all, I want to correct one point. The Chinese special effects team we are working with is not bad at all."

"They are highly experienced and deeply involved in the production of the Hollywood animated film 'Kung Fu Panda.' Their science fiction work 'The Wandering Earth' grossed over 8000 billion Korean won in China. This is a world-class team."

"As for the special effects in 'The Host,' they have done an excellent job. You can see the effects in the theater, and I believe it will not disappoint the audience."

Clearly, the reporters at the scene did not believe this answer.

"Do you mean that the special effects of 'The Host' are on par with 'The Great Shark'?"

"The Great Shark" is a Hollywood blockbuster imported by Hollywood, with a reported total investment of nearly $1 million, and it will also be released soon.

Previously, the deep-sea giant shark in the movie's promotional video left a very deep impression on the audience with its realistic special effects.

Although confident in the quality of "The Host," Bong Joon-hyun dared not make any bold claims, given that it was a Hollywood blockbuster, and could only repeat, "We believe it will move the audience."

After asking several questions, the reporter finally turned his attention to the other lead actors.

"Han Zhixiu, this is your second time acting in a work written by Ye Zhiqiu. Can you share your feelings about it?"

Facing the camera, Han Jisoo answered the questions obediently and earnestly: "It is my honor, but also a great challenge."

"The character I play in this drama, 'Nam-joo,' is a brave and strong archery athlete, which is very different from my previous roles. I hope everyone will like her."

Clearly, the reporters weren't satisfied with such an "honest" answer and pressed further, asking, "This is your fourth project involving Ye Zhi Qiu."

"There are rumors that you two are dating. Is that true?"

Han Ji-soo was startled by the question and quickly waved her hand in denial: "No...no!"

"I greatly admire Ji-Aki oppa, but we are just friends and colleagues..."

In her anxiety, Han Ji-soo's voice became a little stammering, her fair oval face flushed, and fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose.

"But," the middle-aged male reporter said with a wicked grin, "Ye Zhi Qiu really favors you. He's chosen you as the lead in several films. He's really taking good care of you."

"This definitely indicates something beyond a normal friendship, right?"

Faced with the question, Han Ji-soo didn't know how to respond and could only keep denying it, so anxious that she was about to shed tears.

Perhaps, deep down, she had doubts, or even held a sliver of hope.

The interview content about "The Host" has attracted considerable attention in South Korea.

"Director Bong Joon-hyun is absolutely right!"

"A director with integrity should be supported!"

"The Han River was truly polluted back then, so it wouldn't be surprising if some mutated creatures actually emerged from it!"

"After all that explanation, the real reason for using a Chinese special effects team was to save costs, right?"

"But looking at the promotional posters and videos, the monster's special effects are really realistic, the technology is quite impressive."

"No matter how good they are, they can't compare to the top Hollywood special effects companies, right?"

What's outrageous is that, besides normal online discussions about the film itself, there are also serious analyses of the "relationship" between Han Zhixiu and Ye Zhiqiu.

"Indeed, Han Ji-soo is a lucky one who was chosen."

"If it weren't for Ye Zhi Qiu's help, her acting career definitely wouldn't have been so smooth."

"Ye Zhi Qiu oppa really takes good care of our Jisoo."

"Actually, it would be great if the two of them were really together; they are a perfect match in every way."

"Don't even think about it. Didn't you check the Chinese forums? His wife is about to give birth."

“It’s okay if we don’t get married. Zhixiu can have a child with Ye Zhiqiu, born in South Korea, bringing his excellent genes over.”

"Agreed! With Ye Zhi Qiu's looks and talent, you can tell from her genes that she is exceptionally talented."

"Many people have this idea: on the black market, a wealthy woman offered $500 million to buy Ye Zhi Qiu's sperm."

For the highly anticipated "The Host," SG Entertainment spared no expense, investing maximum resources in its promotion and distribution.

The film's captivating premise, its connection to nationalistic sentiments, and the added boost from the rumored romance between Ye Zhi Qiu and Han Zhi Xiu... all these factors combined have propelled "The Host" towards becoming a household name.

Many viewers are eagerly awaiting the official release and are ready to go to the cinema to find out.
