Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 85 Who is behind her?

At the end of July, Shoplifters and Initial D were taken off the screen one after another.

Shoplifters topped the box office charts for domestic films in the first half of 6920 with a box office of 2005 million.

Initial D came in second.

After watching Painted Skin, Han Sanping actually felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, it coincides with The Promise’s release date!
Wang Changtian was extremely satisfied. He never expected that a domestic film could produce such brilliant effects.

As soon as the review was passed on the 20th, Li Chen contacted Marco and asked him to send someone to pick it up.

Li Chen has not yet mentioned anything about Han Sanping and Wang Changtian's participation in the Venice Film Festival.

On July 29, Xu Ke’s Seven Swords was released nationwide.

A few days ago, Xu Ke held a media screening of the Mandarin version of the film in BJ.

Encountered a flood of bad reviews.

However, most media in the South who have watched the Cantonese version strongly support the film.

The polarized reputation has attracted more attention from movie fans and added to the popularity of Seven Swords.

On August 2600st, Seven Swords was released for three days and the box office reached million.

Miss Liu forced Li Chen to contribute to the box office of Seven Swords.

Li Chen had seen Seven Swords, but had long forgotten what it was about.

I accompanied Miss Liu to rewatch this film, of which I had no memory.

Exited the cinema and got in the car.

"Does it look good?" Li Chen asked with a smile while driving.

"Hmm? I, I don't seem to understand it." Miss Liu frowned and smiled somewhat unconfidently.

After all, it is the work of Xu Ke.

Miss Liu doubted herself but was too embarrassed to doubt Old Monster Xu.

Li Chen smiled and said, "That's right, you don't understand it. Just look at the comments online these two days."

“The people’s eyes are sharp”

Miss Liu said happily: "You didn't understand it either?"

"The story structure is loose and the character development is weak."

"After watching it, apart from a few big-name stars, who remembers what they acted in?" Li Chen said casually.

"That is, they took advantage of the release date, as Shoplifters and Initial D were taken off the screen one after another."

"Seven Swordsmen just enjoyed a good schedule." Li Chen said with a smile.

There is a high probability that this film "Seven Swords" will lose all its money.

Miss Liu didn't reply, but looked at her phone intently.

Sometimes frowning, sometimes disgusted.

Li Chen glanced at it and said, "What are you looking at, Xixi?"

"Ah, nothing?" Miss Liu blushed.

Li Chen was even more puzzled, but since he was driving, he couldn't make a fuss about it.

When they got home, Li Chen asked again with a smile: "What were you looking at in the car just now? Why are you blushing?"

Miss Liu handed the phone to Li Chen impatiently and said, "Here, here, here, take a look yourself. You keep asking questions."

Li Chen took the phone suspiciously.

After taking a quick look, she lost interest and Miss Liu laughed from the bottom of her heart.

"What, it doesn't look good?"

Li Chen was speechless and helpless: "Do you think it looks good?"

"Everyone says it looks good." Miss Liu said with a smile.

"Not even as much as one of your fingers!" Li Chen replied.

Miss Liu smiled completely.

I was just worried that my boyfriend was the same as the others in the QQ group.

I didn't realize that I was worrying for nothing.

"This man's appearance is getting worse and worse. He's getting skinny and has an ordinary face."

"Does it have anything to do with sexiness?"

Li Chen made a comment.

No wonder Miss Liu blushed just now.

It turned out that the star girl took a set of wet photos and appeared in men's clothing.

It was widely reported by the media and the praise was overwhelming.

What a wet temptation, extremely sexy.

"These media outlets are willing to lie with their eyes open just to attract attention."

Miss Liu smiled and said, "Are you telling the truth? You're not saying this to cheer me up?"

Today, Miss Liu is as popular as Star Girl.

But my status is definitely not comparable to hers, after all, she is a movie star and a star girl.

Li Chen was speechless: "Xixi, you shouldn't doubt!"

"Just like that, take off all your clothes and stand in front of me."

"I wouldn't be interested either."

"Sexiness is not just showing some flesh."

"In my eyes, the three words Liu Yifei mean sexy." Li Chen said unhappily.

He ignored his girlfriend's suspicion and sat on the sofa sulking.

I don’t know if this girl is because the gap between her and me is getting bigger and bigger.

I have become a little unconfident and have been suspicious lately.

Liu Yifei saw that her boyfriend was angry, but the words she said were like Cupid's arrow, hitting the bull's eye.

She immediately turned into a koala, put her arm around her boyfriend's neck, and said, "Okay, okay, I believe you, don't be angry."

"Isn't it because I care about you that I'm worried?"

Li Chen was dizzy and continued, "Don't try to sweet-talk me. I won't fall for it."

Miss Liu smiled and leaned over to kiss him.

Ten breaths later, their lips parted.

"What about this set?" Miss Liu smiled charmingly as she smoothed her messy hair.

"Alas! I've lost to you. I'll just take it. Let's move on."

Miss Liu jumped away from her boyfriend's arms like a rabbit, and said with a smile: "You wish."

Li Chen was just about to pounce on his prey when the phone rang. Miss Liu moved closer and saw that it was Han Sanping.

Ten minutes ago, a piece of news from the Venice Film Festival was pinned to the top of all major portals.

It instantly overshadowed the popularity of Star Girl's Men's Wear.

The 8nd Venice Film Festival is scheduled to open on August 31.

On August 8, the shortlist for this year's competition unit was announced.

"Painted Skin", a magical martial arts masterpiece by Li Chen, the Palme d'Or director from mainland my country

"Song of Everlasting Regret" by Hong Kong director Guan Jinpeng

Three films including "Brokeback Mountain" by Taiwan director Li An and 17 other films will compete for the Golden Lion trophy.

After winning the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in May.

Director Li once again sets his sights on Venice.

Han Sanping and Wang Changtian are the other two producers of Painted Skin.

He also learned the news from his subordinates at the first time.

Han Sanping's first reaction was that his subordinates had made a mistake.

"Are you sure it's correct?" Han Sanping frowned.

As he spoke, he picked up the phone and muttered, "I wonder why Li Chen suddenly cares about the review time for no reason."

"Director Han, it must be correct. Phoenix, Sina, and Sohu have all published this news."

"I just contacted the Venice Film Festival committee and they also confirmed the news."

As soon as the phone was connected, Han Sanping burst into laughter.

"When did you and Marco hook up?"

Han Sanping understood it after a little thought.

It passed the review on the 20th.

In addition to internal recommendations, there is also Marco Muller, a fan of Chinese culture.

No one has this ability and power.

It’s just that Li Chen is too tight-lipped.

Li Chen answered the phone, somewhat belatedly asking, "What does Mr. Han mean?"

“The Venice shortlist has been announced?”

“Go and see for yourself”

After hanging up the phone, Han Sanping just laughed to himself again.

This kid Li Chen always gives people surprises inadvertently.

He was pretending to be angry just now.

If it can be shortlisted for Venice, it will definitely be another movie that makes a lot of money.

Besides, Painted Skin and Shoplifters have different themes, and he watched the entire film.

Whether it is the wonderful martial arts, the beautiful pictures, or the acting skills of several actors.

Everything was impeccable, and he had a feeling that Painted Skin might make more profit than Shoplifters.

"Send out a few more notices to build momentum for Painted Skin." Han Sanping ordered.

The subordinate laughed and said, “Boss Han, I sent it out as soon as the news came out.”

"I'm afraid the same is true for Rongchen Pictures and Guangguang."

He was right. Wang Changtian now felt as relaxed as taking a hot spring bath.

Not only is Guangguang the producer of this Painted Skin.

It will also be the first major production to be promoted and marketed mainly through light.

Upon learning the news, he called Li Chen immediately.

"Brother, you are hiding this too tightly."

"As a producer, I actually learned this news from the Internet."

"That's not right, brother." Wang Changtian laughed loudly.

"Before the matter comes to a conclusion, it would be useless to talk about it." Li Chen also laughed.

"That's right, brother, don't worry, I guarantee that the promotion of Painted Skin will be a splendid success."

Wang Changtian became determined and made up his mind to make the promotion of Painted Skin look great.

"Okay, I definitely believe in your strength, let's not talk about it now, let's talk about it when we meet."

Finally it’s a little quieter.

Miss Liu puffed up her cheeks pitifully: "When can I go to the film festival?"

Li Chen is now a little confused and can't figure out when Miss Liu is acting.

The teacher I found for her has already started teaching her according to Miss Liu's schedule.

Miss Liu studies very hard at home on weekdays.

As soon as I met him, I put all the results of my study into practice on him.

Laughter, anger, and scolding all come to mind.

Just like the expression now, the little eyes look so pitiful.

She looks cute and lovely with her cheeks puffed out.

Li Chen even couldn't bear to doubt whether she was playing himself.

"It's not easy for you to go to the film festival. How about I make an official announcement?"

"And then take you to the film festival openly?"

"We are the palm trees of the gods, the golden palm trees."

Although Miss Liu was very satisfied with her boyfriend's attitude.

But I also know it’s not appropriate now.

I have nothing now except popularity.

My boyfriend has already achieved success.

She doesn't want people to gossip about her.

"I don't care! Three years, no, five years, at the latest."

"I want to bring my work and walk on the red carpet of the film festival with you openly."

Miss Liu said solemnly.

"If you can't do it, don't even think about touching me again in the future."

Miss Liu put her hands behind her back and said with a sweet smile.

"Ha! What a big threat! You have found my weak spot!" Li Chen laughed.

"A man's true character is a hero's true character. Don't you know that lust is a sword hanging over your head?"

Li Chen sighed again!
Ms. Liu immediately responded: "What did you say?"

Li Chen changed his expression and smiled again: "I said I will definitely complete the task!"

In Li Chen's opinion, it is too difficult to help his girlfriend win awards at three major international competitions in five years.

But it shouldn’t be too difficult in China. If it really doesn’t work, I can just follow the example of Guang Tongchen.

The two were chatting and laughing when Zhou Xun called again.

"Director Li, Painted Skin was shortlisted for Venice Film Festival, and someone else told me about my starring role."

"Sister, I'm very unhappy. I called to tell you that I won't go."

Zhou Xun's voice sounded a little cold and distant.

But he couldn't hide it from Li Chen.

"Really? I heard that the If Love crew is also going to Venice, and I heard that they are screening the film at the closing ceremony."

"If you are stubborn, don't go."

"Then I respect you as a man, Brother Xun."

Miss Liu covered her mouth and laughed, and hit her boyfriend. How could he be so rude!
"Ah, how did you know?" Zhou Xun's defense was instantly broken.
In fact, Zhou Xun was also extremely happy when he learned that Painted Skin was shortlisted for Venice Film Festival.

The acting of everyone in Painted Skin.

Zhou Xun believes that she is the most capable candidate for Best Actress.

Li Qiaoqiao is still a little lacking.

Besides, in Painted Skin, she is the first female protagonist.

Both her role and the space she could play were more eye-catching than Peirong's.

In addition, Li Chen was always striving for perfection in the crew.

Just for that one shot of floating to the surface, I was soaked in the water for a long time.

She was about to collapse.

Looking back now, it was all worth it.

How could she not go?

"Director Li, do you think it's possible for me to win the title at Venice Film Festival?" Zhou Xun stopped pretending after being exposed.

Ask whatever comes to mind.

After all, Li Chen is now a Palme d'Or director. Although his opinions cannot represent the jury, they must be quite professional.

"Who can say for sure? I haven't even seen the other 19 films, so how can I evaluate them?" Li Chen said with a smile.

"You have to be prepared. There is a high chance that your If Love Will Be Critically Hit by Painted Skin!" Li Chen said again.

"Tsk! They are not of the same type and cannot be compared!" Zhou Xun said indifferently.

"I'm talking about the box office. It's okay to tell you in advance. Painted Skin and If Love Is War are scheduled to be released together."

"Then the two films you starred in will face off against each other. You can decide for yourself."

Li Chen hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

Miss Liu was surprised and asked, "Is what you just said true?"

"Well, it's Mr. Han's decision." Li Chen said, trying not to laugh.

Zhou Xun hung up the phone, not knowing whether he should tell Chen Kexin about this.

After thinking about it, I decided to pretend I didn’t know.

Li Qiaoqiao contacted Yang Siwei to confirm the matter and was also extremely happy.

Yang Siwei responded to media interviews in an orderly manner.

A piece of news was revealed to the public.

Li Chen was invited by Marco Muller, president of the Venice Film Festival.

In fact, the registration time for Painted Skin is already late.

But given the achievements made by Director Li and Mr. Marco's enthusiasm and passion for Chinese culture.

Mr. Marco discussed with the organizing committee and decided that the Painted Skin would be delivered directly by the person in charge of Asian film selection.

At the same time, Yang Siwei also stated that Painted Skin is definitely a classic oriental fantasy martial arts masterpiece.

Movie fans should not miss it.

The explosive news in August came one after another, making it hard to keep up.

At the end of July, someone broke the news that Wang Jinghua was about to leave Huayi and set up her own business.

Today, someone revealed that Wang Jinghua would rather not have her previous shares.

He also wants to take his artists and part ways with Huayi.

In Hong Kong Island, Stephen Chow's star has not had time to respond to the Star Girl's accusations.

The star girl has already taken the initiative.

Tears are cheap as if they are sold in bulk, and I cry all the way from south to north.

He also held a press conference to accuse Zhou Xingchi.

She is definitely a weak woman who has been persecuted.

And unilaterally announced the termination of the contract with Star Shine.

No matter how much it costs, it is worth it.

It shocked everyone in the industry, and I still remember it more than half a year ago.

The star girl was also at the premiere of Kung Fu.

He expressed special thanks to director Zhou Xingchi in front of a group of Beijing media.

How could it be so embarrassing in just half a year?

"Boss, there is an expert behind this!" Yang Siwei ran over to report to Li Chen.

Talking about Star Girl, I have benefited a lot from it.

"Yes, I can see that. You have grown very fast in the past two years." Li Chen nodded.

"Boss, do you know?" Yang Siwei immediately took advantage of the situation.

Sometimes she was also curious about how her boss knew more about the dirty things in the circle than anyone else.

"Guessed!" Li Chen tapped his temple.

"Don't worry about these. You also have things to do. Take a look at this." Li Chen said.

Yang Siwei walked over to the boss and took a look.

It turned out that there was a piece of news about Wang Zhaojun published on the Internet.

The title is Yang Mi will compete with Fan Qiaoqiao, Li Qiaoqiao, and Gao Yuanyuan in "Wang Zhaojun"

Yang Siwei understood immediately: "Boss, don't worry, I know what to do."

As soon as this news came out, Yang Mi immediately became the target of public criticism.

Yang Siwei returned to the office and told his four generals to be on high alert.

Pay attention to the trends online.

The spectators are very happy, especially when it comes to the competition among such popular actresses.

Soon, netizens shifted their attention from the Star Girl to the competition for Wang Zhaojun.

It has been rumored that Shuang Qiao, Gao Yuanyuan and three others were competing.

No one found it surprising.

After all, all three of them have representative works, and their looks are outstanding.

But what about this new Yang Mi?

Many people don’t even know Yang Mi.

Yang Mi was also feeling nervous at this time, and sat in front of the computer with a mixture of surprise and joy.

Yang Xiaolin also sat next to his daughter.

Yang Mi has already met with director Chen Jialin.

Chen Jialin didn't expect that more than ten years later.

The little girl who sat on his lap back then has grown into a graceful young lady.

Although he did not reply to Yang Mi in person.

But Yang Mi could feel that Director Chen should be satisfied with her.

Because Director Chen said something to her.

"Since you know me, just come find me yourself, instead of bothering others."

Yang Mi immediately felt blessed and smiled sweetly.

"I understand, Director Chen, I will call you directly next time."

"Girl, is this really the result of the efforts of your senior?" Yang Xiaolin asked.

Yang Mi didn't bother to answer and focused on browsing the comments online.

"Who is this woman? Where did she come from?"

"Yeah, why should she compete with my Zhiruo?"

"Is there someone supporting her behind the scenes? Maybe she's the next Liu Yifei."

"Rong Xingda's people?"

In less than fifteen minutes, Yang Mi's information was dug out.

Yang Xiaolin and his daughter sat in front of the computer staring at each other.

The information above is even clearer than what the father and daughter themselves know.

Her entire family of ancestors was almost listed.

Yang Xiaolin muttered: "How did these people know?"

Things are developing very quickly.

Rong Xingda responded immediately.

It means that Rong Xingda has terminated the contract with Yang Mi and there is no relationship between the two.

This caused an even bigger uproar on the internet.

"I said there was someone behind this! Otherwise, how could a newcomer have the courage to terminate the contract with Rongxingda?"

"Did Fish Leong give it to him? Or maybe it was given by the coal boss?"

"The guy upstairs might be the bearded man, and this girl is Guo Xiang from The Condor Heroes."

Yang Mi was terrified.

For the first time, I realized the true meaning of the famous saying that people are afraid of becoming famous just as pigs are afraid of getting fat.

The phone rang, waking up the stunned father and daughter.

Seeing the caller ID, Yang Mi quickly answered the call.

"thinking?"

"Mi Mi, don't respond to the comments online, leave it to me."

"If anyone asks, just follow what I taught you before."

"Just talk about the relationship between me and Director Chen during the reign of Emperor Minghuang of Tang, and don't say a word about anything else, OK?"

"I've got it down, Siwei. Don't worry, I won't say anything nonsense." Yang Mi said seriously.

Public opinion is intensifying, and the key point is that none of the other three actresses competing for the role of Wang Zhaojun are fighting alone.

The office of Wang Zhonglei of Huayi.

Wang Zhonglei couldn't figure out what was so charming about this girl.

Since I have cut off my relationship with Rong Xingda, I don’t care whether there is someone behind him or not.

I can't just sit there and watch.

"Forget about it this time. Age doesn't give you an advantage. I've already asked."

"Xiao Fan has a great chance. You have to look at the overall situation, do you understand?" Wang Zhonglei said.

Li Yu, who was standing in front of him, nodded and replied simply and neatly: "I understand, Mr. Wang."

In fact, she had known it in her heart for a long time.

Because of her age, the elder sister competed with Fan Qiaoqiao and Gao Yuanyuan for the role of Wang Zhaojun.

It is indeed the biggest disadvantage.

"Now that you understand, just do it." Wang Zhonglei said.

Li Yu agreed, turned around and left the office, and made a phone call to his subordinates.

Wang Zhonglei called Fan Qiaoqiao again.

"Qiao Qiao, don't worry, Wang Zhaojun will not have anyone else except you!"

"Thank you, Mr. Wang."

After hanging up the phone, the boyfriend stayed with Fan Qiaoqiao and paid attention to the comments online.

Where did this Yang Mi come from and who is behind her?
Fan Qiaoqiao thought about it over and over again but couldn't figure it out, when suddenly he caught a glimpse of the news about Painted Skin on the Internet.

An idea suddenly struck me, and I remembered that day when I went for the audition, Yang Siwei seemed to intentionally change the topic of Wang Zhaojun.

Could it be?

No way?
What does this girl have?
Fan Qiaoqiao picked up the phone and dialed Yang Siwei directly.

Yang Siwei was busy at the moment, but he did not ignore Fan Qiaoqiao.

"Why did you think of calling me now?" Yang Siwei said with a smile as he walked out of the office.

"Where are you? Would you like to come out for a drink?" Fan Qiaoqiao asked.

"Let's do it another day. I'm already in bed. What do you want from me?"

"I don't believe that you're asking me out for a drink so late at night?" Yang Siwei said with a smile.

"Alas, isn't it that I felt so upset when I saw the news about Wang Zhaojun?" Fan Qiaoqiao sighed lightly.

"What's the big deal? You've been in this business for so many years, and you still can't figure this out?"

Yang Siwei ignored her.

"Siwei, do you think I can't even compete with a newcomer?"

"Then I am really unlucky!"

"We just missed out on Zhang Yongcheng, and now Wang Zhaojun is about to fly away again."

Fan Qiaoqiao asked jokingly.

"What are you talking about? If you don't play Wang Zhaojun, who will? Who is more suitable than you?"

"Come on, Wang Zhaojun is one of the four great beauties!"

"Who are you competing to see who is more beautiful? Don't you know what you look like?" Yang Siwei said with a smile.

"Go to hell! You're the one who looks like a devil. Okay, I'll just talk to you."

"Okay, that's fine. Let's go out for a SPA treatment another day."

After hanging up the phone, Fan Qiaoqiao dispelled his doubts.

If it’s not Rongchen Pictures, then who could it be?

Yang Siwei is still in the company, directing the operations, so he has no time to sleep.

However, she couldn't tell Fan Qiaoqiao the truth, after all, Fan Qiaoqiao was not an artist of the company yet.

Keeping public and private affairs separate is the most basic professional quality.

Negative information and ugly pictures of Yang Mi gradually emerged on the Internet.

The ugliest one is the one that was obviously photoshopped.

Yang Siwei shook his head and said to himself: "How cruel."

Without having to think about it, he knew who were the people behind these black spots.

When Yang Mi saw this picture, the father and daughter looked at each other in surprise.

Yang Xiaolin was stunned for a while: "Girl, is this you?"

Yang Mi was fed up: "Dad, how can you be so confused? Don't you know what your daughter looks like?"

Yang Mi ignored her father angrily.

I turned off my computer and cell phone and went straight to sleep.

The next day, I slept until I woke up naturally.

When I opened my phone, it was full of text messages and missed calls, from a bunch of people I knew and a few I didn’t know.

Yang Mi looked through a few text messages, and there were people from several film and television companies.

For example, Tangren, Hairun.
Yang Mi hurriedly turned on the computer.

When I went online, I found that the style of painting had completely changed.

Starting from Emperor Minghuang of Tang and Su Qier, beautiful pictures of myself from childhood to adulthood can be seen everywhere.

It was like there was an army of Yang Mi conquering everywhere.

Moreover, they had an overwhelming advantage and defeated the online enemies with great force.

It fully proves that I have been beautiful since I was a child.

The fake photo that had been photoshopped was also "corrected" by "enthusiastic" netizens.

The bigger surprise is yet to come.

Near noon, the Wang Zhaojun crew announced.

The role of Wang Zhaojun was finally chosen to be Yang Mi.

Director Chen Jialin publicly stated: "We have filmed all the big names in China, and what we want is to bring forth something new and innovative."

"Especially the play Wang Zhaojun should introduce new actors."

"Because the big names no longer see virginity or simplicity, only price."

"We want authentic mountain delicacies, not flowers grown in a greenhouse."

The producers then said: "We hope to tap into the nature of the actress who plays Wang Zhaojun."

"Rather than asking her to act deliberately. Just like the current Super Girl show, it's about finding new stars from the masses."

"I chose Yang Mi because her temperament matches the charming smile and beautiful eyes of the young Wang Zhaojun."

"This is the unanimous choice made by us as producers and director Chen Jialin."

Yang Mi was confused. How come the landscape had changed so much after she woke up from a sleep?

Coming back to her senses, Yang Mi screamed in excitement and jumped up and down as if no one was around.

"Ah!!! I was chosen, I was chosen."
