Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 642 High-End Business Warfare = Blocking the Door
Li Qiutang has been filming the scene of the CN171-11 rescue team's demise at the Shanghai Tower for 17 days.

From the time Zhao Jinmai started filming before her middle school entrance exam, to when she took leave to return to Fengtian for the exam, and then to when she returned after the exam, Li Qiutang filmed this major scene for a full 17 days.

Han Zi'ang died here, and members of the rescue team also died here.

For 17 days, ambulances were parked outside the film set, and medical staff monitored the actors' condition on site at all times, sending them away immediately if any accident occurred.

Especially for Wu Mengda, who had heart surgery just two years ago, this kind of high-intensity and high-difficulty action scene is indeed a test for someone of his age and physical condition.

He fainted several times during filming, and returned to filming after recovering from being taken to the hospital.

While filming was still underway, Li Qiutang noticed something was wrong with Wu Mengda on the monitor and urgently called "Cut!": "Check on Uncle Da, he seems to be having some issues."

Li Qiutang walked into the film set, where Wu Mengda was hanging in the elevator shaft, and the staff were slowly lowering him down.

"Slow down, slow down."

"Put Uncle Da down."

"Slower."

The staff quickly helped Wu Mengda down, sat him down on the spot, and took off his helmet.

"Quickly, inhale some oxygen." The staff member quickly handed over an oxygen cylinder.

After taking a deep breath of oxygen, Wu Mengda said in a firm tone, "Why aren't we filming?"

Even though he needed help to sit up and was already out of breath, he still questioned Li Qiutang about why she cut the shot: "Keep filming!"

Wu Mengda, panting heavily, said, "One more bite."

The staff gave him oxygen again.

"I can do it, please don't stop me."

But Li Qiutang still said, "Uncle Fuda, go and rest over there."

"The crew will take a ten-minute break."

The weather is getting hot now, and with so many people and equipment in the shed, it's even hotter.

This was indeed a big challenge for the filming.

It's quite a coincidence that all of Li Qiutang's major films were shot in the summer!
And they were all shot in a studio!
"In Time" was filmed in a studio in Hengdian; "Mojin: The Lost Legend" was filmed in a studio in Huairou; and "The Wandering Earth" was filmed in a studio in Qingdao.

Before she knew it, Li Qiutang had finished filming in several of the best studios in China.

If we're talking about the best option, then Hengdian has to be it, because the supporting facilities there are so well-developed.

The supporting facilities in Huairou and Qingdao are simply no match for those in Hengdian.

But Hengdian is really hot in the summer! This is also the thing that Li Qiutang dislikes most about Hengdian.

Li Qiutang drank some water and went to the medical tent to see Wu Mengda, who was talking to the doctor.

He held up the Rendan pills: "But I've already taken two. Can I take another one?"

…………

"Reset" is beyond saving. It grossed 1.19 million yuan in its first four days, which looks good, but its attendance and word-of-mouth have plummeted dramatically.

Many netizens mocked Yang Mi's acting skills as being as bad as ever.

"I was really looking forward to seeing what an Oscar-worthy performance would be like, and this is all I got?"

"She won Best Actress? The Houston Film Festival is really a shoddy business."

"Yang Mi was fooled by the initial publicity; she hasn't improved at all. However, her choice of Huo Jianhua as her co-star was still smart. Congratulations to Huo Jianhua for winning this round. He used his well-known stoic and weak-willed persona from past TV dramas to create a new level of awkwardness in the movie. 'Best Actress' Yang Mi thanks him." Yang Mi was criticized without any temper, but not responding is not in her nature. In an interview, she said, "I have the ideal of becoming a good actress. No matter how much further I have to go, I firmly believe in this."

He also said, "My future plans are very simple: to keep running on the path to becoming a good actor."

It's unclear whether she won the bet and genuinely wanted to focus on acting, or if she was just putting on this act to appease reporters and fans.

Anyway, these are nice words, they sound nice.

With "Despicable Me 3" and "Brotherhood of Blades 2" coming out soon, the critically panned "Reset" is simply unstoppable.

Yang Mi also devoted her time and energy to "Brotherhood of Blades 2".

The movie adaptation of "The Legend of Wukong," the "number one online novel," will be released in the second week after "Despicable Me" and "Brotherhood of Blades 2."

Starring Eddie Peng and Nini.

We don't know who said "The Legend of Wukong" is the number one divine book on the internet, but that's what everyone says.

The release of the movie "Wu Kong" has been eagerly anticipated by many readers, who are just waiting to receive it.

The pre-sale results for "The Legend of Wukong" are quite good, and it is predicted that the first day's sales will be good as well.

The main focus of the summer movie season should rightfully be the films, but this year someone insisted on stealing the headlines from the movies, and he succeeded!

Even a world-class IP like the Minions couldn't beat him!
This person is Boss Jia!

On Wednesday morning, #LeEcoDebtCrisis# topped the trending searches, followed by hashtags such as #JiaYueting#, #LeEco#, and #LeEcoExplosion#.

"Sina Finance reports that LeEco's request for debt extension has been rejected, leaving Jia Yueting's family with billions of yuan in debt."

"Breaking news: LeEco Group, which is controlled by Jia Yueting, has defaulted on its debts, and employees are owed several months' wages. Jia Yueting himself admitted that the company is facing the biggest crisis since its founding."

"NetEase Finance reports that LeEco's debt crisis has caused its stock price to plummet, leaving investors with nothing. Here's a look at some of LeEco's star shareholders."

Li Qiutang kept an eye on LeEco's financial crisis while filming.

According to news reports, LeEco employees and investors blocked Jia Yueting in his office at the LeEco building, preventing him from leaving.

Judging from the video circulating online, Jia Yueting didn't appear particularly nervous, but his displeasure was written all over his face.

He told the employees and investors who were blocking the door, "We'll solve the problem together. What are you doing sitting here? It's an eyesore."

But the employees wouldn't listen to any of that. They pointed their fingers at Jia Yueting and said, "You can't leave! Is the company going bankrupt?! Explain yourself!"

One employee even said, "When will you pay us the four months' wages you owe us?!"

Some employees were very rude, pointing their fingers at Jia Yueting and yelling, "You bastard cashed out hundreds of billions from the company, and now you owe us wages and aren't paying us. You want to run away, huh!"

"What about our employee shares?! Explain yourself!"

"Does the company have any money left in its accounts? Explain yourself clearly!"

The scene was extremely noisy, and the employees were very emotional, as if they could tear Jia Yueting apart if he said the wrong thing.

In the video, Jia Yueting is blocked by employees at the meeting room door. He says, "Everyone, don't get agitated. I'm more anxious than you are about the company's problems, but please believe me, I can solve them. I'll find a way to pay your salaries. Even if the company doesn't have money in its accounts, I'll personally borrow money to pay you all, okay? Please don't get agitated." He then tries to push through the crowd to leave.

"You can't leave!" Of course, the employees wouldn't let him go!
Jia Yueting was forced to return to the conference room.

The video was only this long. After watching it, Li Qiutang felt that history seemed to have changed a little.

The situation is becoming increasingly unpredictable, and also increasingly interesting.

Mr. Jia, will you be able to leave unscathed this time?
