Fooling Huayu for Thirty Years

Chapter 485 Let's do a preview screening together? Let's play along! Yin Tao is incomparably charming.

"No, has Ma Xun made any moves?"

"I went there to sign a contract before, and many people from our side were there at the time."

"So, that's all?"

"Hmm, it's probably Gao Yuanyuan's movie."

"What else?"

"It seems...it seems like that person has something going on?"

"That Bingbing? What's her name?!"

In Beijing, the Wang brothers are still fully engaged in the publicity and distribution of "The Banquet".

This time they went all out.

The Wang brothers invested all of Huayi's resources, which directly resulted in full coverage of television stations.

Of course, they also look down on some less-than-ideal TV stations.

But the advertisements for "The Banquet" are truly ubiquitous.

Such a large-scale operation is unprecedented not only in the Chinese advertising industry, but also in the global advertising industry.

The Wang brothers were quite pleased with this.

Regardless of whether "The Banquet" is successful or not... the two of them are extremely confident now, convinced that they will definitely succeed.

The current advertising situation has fully demonstrated Huayi's strength!
That's right, the Wang brothers have already won a hand.

Regarding our domestic advertising industry, they now say:
Who else!
Right? Who dares to answer?
How awesome is that!

However, they both felt a vague unease.

This doesn't feel good.

The main question is... what exactly is Ma Xun up to?
The Wang brothers aren't fools; they've already been tricked several times.

Feng Xiaogang was originally the king of the Lunar New Year film season, right?

It's widely acknowledged!

But in recent years, Ma Xun has always come up with something new for them.

If the two of them are completely unprepared, then they are really being incredibly foolish.

But the problem is...

The only one we can see right now seems to be Gao Yuanyuan's drama.

It's worth mentioning, but Gao Yuanyuan is now a Cannes Film Festival Best Actress winner.

The Wang brothers actually admired Ma Xun to some extent; this guy actually managed to pull off something at the world's top film festival.

Although Gao Yuanyuan clearly got the Best Actress award by chance, it's impossible for it to be entirely due to her luck.

Even if we assume that we're hoping to snag a spot in the competition, we still need to have a piece shortlisted for the main competition section.

Otherwise, there won't be any chance to snag a bargain.

In this way, the Wang brothers certainly did not underestimate Gao Yuanyuan's film.

Okay, actually it was also about holding my breath.

After all, this movie, which is called "Yesterday's Me and Tomorrow's You," really piggybacked on the popularity of "The Banquet."

But the Wang brothers thought it over and over again, and even invited a group of people to come and offer advice.

The result is... there's absolutely nothing we can do!

Does that mean Daniel Wu can't take on other roles?

Moreover, that mask is different; it's completely different.

It's just that it does evoke direct associations.

The Wang brothers' actions against Ma Xun were incredibly ruthless.

But there was nothing they could do.

Forget about that for now. Let's figure out what other tricks Ma Xun has up his sleeve.

The film "The Banquet" was heavily exploited, which definitely cost the Wang brothers a lot.

Regardless of the circumstances, Huayi still holds the absolute initiative in the current situation.

With all these advertisements, who wouldn't know about "The Banquet"?
How could Ma Xun have only produced Gao Yuanyuan's movie?

He definitely won't behave himself!

That movie with Bingbing?
The key point is that the Wang brothers have no idea what that film is.

Let alone the two of them, very few people know about that film now.

The Wang brothers had previously caused some trouble, sending people to Hengdian to inquire. Those people said they saw Bingbing join a film crew, and the sign outside said:

The Big Apple.

This name? ??
Something's clearly not right.

As for what's going on in that group, I really don't know. I heard that everyone signed a confidentiality agreement and got a raise, but if there's a leak, the compensation will be quite a lot.

The Wang brothers were confused, which made them feel really bad.

I've been feeling uneasy for many days now.

What should I do?
Ask someone else!

"That guy..."

"Don't worry, you two, nothing's wrong. That Ma Xun guy, hehe, this time he's..."

The Wang brothers were asking about Qin Hong.

They both knew that Qin Hong harbored the greatest hatred for Ma Xun.

After all, Ma Xun had essentially sent Brother Qin Hong overseas.

Qin Hong said it was nothing.

Is everything really alright?

But at this moment, Chen Guofu arrived.

He immediately brought the Wang brothers good news upon his arrival.

"Gentlemen, the film 'Silk,' which we invested in, has been confirmed for release sometime earlier next year!"

This guy is very confident, and this film, Silk, is indeed something he can be proud of.

It is the latest work by director Su, who also directed "Double Vision". In addition, the cast of this film is also very strong.

Basically, they are some of the most popular celebrities in Taiwan right now, along with Japanese actor Yosuke Eguchi.

Barbie Hsu, and rising star Zhang Junning.

She used to be a model, and she also attended Jingmei High School.

Jingmei is a girls' high school, and she used to be quite famous. She could even compete with Taipei First Girls' High School.

This battle is a 'ceremonial guard' competition; they can wave flags and brandish guns, and there are even competitions in Taipei City.

Zhang Junning is tall and has long legs; she was born for this job.

Okay, actually there's another one, Xia Jialu, who also came from the Jingmei honor guard.

Some say that Chang Chun-ning is the best model in Taiwan after Chi-ling.

This is probably to create hype for her.

Speaking of Silk, there is another special feature to this movie.

Chen Guofu suddenly mentioned someone.

"Mr. Zhou, are you doing alright inside?"

Upon hearing this, the Wang brothers' expressions changed, but thankfully, they quickly regained their composure.

"Oh, don't worry."

“You still don’t quite understand the situation on the mainland.” The two of them were exchanging barbs, and Chen Guofu laughed heartily.

Actually, this was Chen Guofu pointing out the two kings.

Don't forget, there was another person involved in the investment of the movie "Silk".

Mao Jie, Zhou Zhengyi's wife!

Back then, this matter... well, it was a lot of money, wasn't it?

But since things have already come to this, the two kings have nothing to say and just want to put Chen Guofu at ease.

Zhou Zhengyi is enjoying air conditioning inside.

Don't worry.

Chen Guofu was very satisfied after hearing this, and at this time, Da Wang and Xiao Wang also told this guy about the problems they were currently facing.

After all, Chen Guofu is now considered their strategist.

After listening to the stories of the two kings...

"Bosses, this is easy," Chen Guofu said confidently.

"Please speak." The two kings now felt like they were Liu Bei.

Chen Guofu laughed heartily, “Our ‘The Banquet’ has come this far using only legitimate methods! Ma Xun’s current tactics are nothing but petty scheming and not worth mentioning.”

Since that's the case, let's just use our best move again.

The release of a movie always involves certain procedures.

Organizing a preview screening shouldn't be a problem, right?

Let's just send an invitation directly to Ma Xun, and we can all have a preview screening together.

Don't they like to tag us around?
This time, I'll give you a chance to come openly.

in this way……"

To be honest, Chen Guofu's methods are indeed effective.

Most importantly, the Wang brothers still haven't figured out what Ma Xun is really up to.

Inviting them to join in a preview screening is definitely a tempting offer.

Are you coming or not? If you come, we'll get more attention.

If you don't come, then don't blame us.

Moreover, if Ma Xun and his group don't come, it will make them seem guilty!

The previous promotional efforts have been significantly less effective!

"good idea!"

These three guys made up their minds.

……

Shunan Bamboo Sea.

The scenery here is indeed outstanding, and over the years, many film and television crews have come here to shoot.

It has become a well-known tourist attraction.

Ma Xun leaned against the window and looked out; it was indeed a pleasing sight.

But not long after, a pair of hands reached up from behind and touched his chest.

Yin Tao, with alluring eyes.

"If I could spend more time with you, that would be wonderful."

This exclamation speaks volumes of sorrow and grief.

Ma Xun smiled after hearing this, "While you're young, you should focus on your career. That's my advice to you."

His words had a deeper meaning.

Yin Tao's family, however, did not want to hear this, saying, "It's obvious that you have far too many women."

This kind of criticism is fine too.

Ma Xun didn't care at all and continued to laugh, "If you're jealous, you should wait until you reach a higher peak before you get jealous. That way, it will be more impactful."

Yin Tao chuckled after hearing this, "Even when you're saying sweet nothings, it's all so devoid of emotion."

Is this considered a love confession?

Who knows.

Actually, Yin Tao was thinking about something else; she genuinely cared about Ma Xun.

"I know that there will definitely be more and more women in the future. Tell me honestly, won't you get tired of it?"

That's a good question.

Ma Xun immediately realized his mistake... However, Yin Tao didn't seem to specify whose it was, right?

"I won't get tired of it."

Goodness, that's really getting straight to the point!

Yin Tao couldn't help but punch his chest with her little fists, "You're so mean, you pinched me..."

Her coquettishness was captivating to the extreme.

Ma Xun then said, "I have high hopes for you."

Upon hearing this, Yin Tao was so amused that he swayed wildly.

These words inevitably reminded her of "My Own Swordsman".

"You think this movie has potential?"

"Just don't rush it."

"So, what exactly is the urgent matter?"

"It's probably scheduled to air at the end of this year."

"This matter is ultimately your decision."

I was afraid you'd be too impatient.

Ma Xun, you know, actually used all the tricks he had for charming women when it came to Yin Tao.

Yin Tao was overjoyed by the flattery, as for the other flowers...

Just then, Ma Xun's phone rang.

"what's up?"

"Huayi has come up with a new trick this time. They actually invited us to hold a preview screening together."

"Oh? You're inviting us? I've never seen this before."

"What they mean is that we should also benefit from their film, 'The Banquet'."

"Haha... Interesting, very good, let's play with them then."

"Yes, boss, I understand!"

Wang Changtian hung up the phone decisively because he heard some noises.

Ahem, how the boss plays is his business; he won't interfere.

Ma Xun couldn't help but pull Yin Tao up and simply pressed her against the windowsill.

This... seems familiar.

"Come back to Beijing with me."

"Ah? What for?"

"Watch the movie 'The Banquet'."

Yin Tao frowned slightly, biting her pearly teeth, just like Yang Guifei...
