Chapter 462 The Clever Liu Yifei

Chapter 462 The Clever Liu Yifei
On the first day of the Lunar New Year this year, seven blockbuster films were released in one go, and all of them achieved great box office success.

Even the previously underestimated, more artistic film "Wolf Totem" achieved a respectable 3300 million yuan in sales on its opening day.

This project had passed through Li Qiutang's hands once before. Li Qiutang was interested, but at the time, she didn't take it on because she considered that the filming would be too difficult and the preparation time too long.

Now that it's been made into a Sino-French co-production, it's actually quite well done.

If we disregard "Where Are We Going, Dad? 2" and "Dad's Holiday," two "movies" that precisely target their audience, the worst-received of the remaining five feature films is surprisingly "Zhong Kui: Snow Girl and the Dark Crystal," directed by Wu Ershan and starring Chen Kun and Li Bingbing.

It received even worse reviews than "From Vegas to Macau II".

While "Painted Skin 2" wasn't exactly a masterpiece, Wu Ershan did an excellent job filming it and contributed to its high box office success.

However, while "Zhong Kui: Snow Girl and the Dark Crystal" maintained the art direction and special effects that Wu Ershan had always been known for, providing plenty of audiovisual stimulation, viewers could clearly see the shortcomings in the story.

Ulsan said it was an editing issue: "Some parts were cut, so the plot might confuse the audience."

To be fair, Urshan did a pretty good job of filming Li Bingbing, but her transformed appearance was a bit ugly.

Despite this, Zhong Kui: Snow Girl and the Dark Crystal still earned 6400 million on its opening day.

The market is too hot.

In the following days, Li Qiutang had no time to watch movies, as the whole family needed to discuss the wedding date.

When it comes to marriage, Li Qiutang and Liu Yifei stand firmly together, neither wanting their parents to interfere too much.

The auspicious day is decided by everyone through discussion, but the couple must decide where and how to hold the event.

In front of the whole family, Li Qiutang boasted to Liu Yifei, "You can pick any place in the world, and I guarantee I'll make it look beautiful for you."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes and laughed, "You said it yourself, I can pick whatever I want in the whole world."

"Pick any one you like."

"How much are you planning to spend on this wedding?" Liu Yifei asked with a smile.

“Spend as much as you want, and I’ll give you whatever you spend.” Li Qiutang wasn’t intimidated at all.

Li's mother jokingly scolded him, "You've really shown off."

"It's a once-in-a-lifetime event. It's one thing to be stingy during the rest of the year, but we should be extravagant on this occasion." The words may be crude, but the principle is sound, and the whole family agreed to make it a lavish affair.

However, Liu Yifei found many wedding photos online, both domestic and international, and she liked this one and wanted that one too.

"Ya Wen is in Yanjing, Mi Mi is in Bali, who else is there?"

“Chen Sicheng and Tong Liya are in Tahiti,” Li Qiutang added.

"How about Tahiti?"

"Beautiful, their wedding was also very well organized."

Liu Yifei was scratching her head so hard she almost went bald, but she still couldn't decide where to hold her wedding.

Until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Yifei's parents had given her several dates to choose from, but she still hadn't decided.

She even blamed Li Qiutang: "It's not you who's getting married, you don't want to!"

“Look at you again. I told you I wanted to go back to my hometown in Northeast China and have a three-day, three-night feast in the village, but you definitely wouldn’t agree.”

Liu Yifei, of course, disagreed!
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Qiutang saw her parents off on the plane home. Before they went through security, her parents repeatedly told her to let them know as soon as she had chosen the time and place.

On the evening of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, before going to bed, the clever Liu Yifei came up with an incredibly ingenious way to choose a wedding location—throwing darts!

The specific method is to find a world map, close Liu Yifei's eyes, and stick to whichever spot the map is where the wedding will be held!

It's incredibly childish, but Liu Yifei is capable of doing things like this.

Li Qiutang said, "The ocean covers 70% of the world's surface. What are you going to do if you were to anchor yourself in the Pacific Ocean?"

"Zha Haili doesn't count."

"Are you going to stick your feet on the ice sheets of Antarctica and the Arctic?"

"It doesn't count."

What about Africa?

"Are you ever going to stop?" Liu Yifei said impatiently. "I'd accept being stuck in Africa. Bring me a map and some darts."

"Where am I supposed to get you a map and darts?"

"Go buy it now," Liu Yifei insisted.

Li Qiutang looked at her phone and said, "It's 11:30 at night, where am I supposed to buy you a world map and darts?"

"Go ahead, think of a way."

There was no other way but to do as they said. A world map was easy to get; they should be available at any convenience store on the street.

But where can I buy these darts?

Who still plays darts these days?
Do you sell darts here?

"No."

…………

Do you have darts in your store?

"No, nobody plays it anymore, so we haven't stocked up."

…………

Do you have darts here?

"No, why are you looking for this thing?"

What for? To get married!
I drove around to four different shops, but none of them sold darts. I did manage to eat two grilled sausages, though.

Another disappointment. Li Qiutang felt she had found a wife with an eccentric mind.

He started asking his friends for help, trying to think of which family might have such a thing.

"Hey, Qian'er, are you asleep? If you're not, that's good. Do you have any darts? The kind you play with. Hey, my wife wants some. Don't ask what they're for. Where am I supposed to find them at this hour? Nobody plays with these things anymore. Do you have any? Look for them and call me back if you find any."

"Hey, Jing-ge, are you asleep? Are you in Yanjing or somewhere else? It's nothing, just wanted to ask you something. Do you know where I can find darts? I need some. Okay, go ahead and look for them. Call me if you get any information."

On the fifth call, Yu Qian said that a friend of his had darts, so Li Qiutang quickly drove there. By the time he got home with the map and darts, it was already 1:20 a.m.

Liu Yifei is already asleep.

Will Li Qiutang let her go?
"Hey, hey, wake up, wake up." Li Qiutang shook her awake.

What are you doing?

"I've bought the map and the darts, it's your turn to throw them."

"I just fell asleep."

"I don't care, you wanted me to find a way to get you the map and darts, and I got them. You're not going to sleep until this is settled."

"Ugh." Liu Yifei reluctantly got out of bed.

Li Qiutang wanted to hang the map up, but in that instant she wanted to slap herself: "Am I stupid? Why did I go looking for darts all over the world? I bought the map, laid it on the ground, and you could just throw a powder compact or a coin at it. I'm so stupid."

Liu Yifei was amused and laughed at his silliness.

"Throw it away quickly, and then go to sleep."

Li Qiutang covered Liu Yifei's eyes with her hands, and Liu Yifei threw a dart.

Africa, Zambia.

"Hahahaha!" Li Qiutang laughed so hard. "Alright, let's go to Zambia to eat Nshima."

"I'm not going!" Liu Yifei immediately retorted. "Throw it again."

"Hey--"

"I won't!"

There was no other way, so I blindfolded her again and threw it once more.

In the Indian Ocean.

"Again."

Li Qiutang's jinxed words have backfired; Liu Yifei has actually been killed in Antarctica for the third time.
