Fooling Huayu for Thirty Years

Chapter 566 National Day Release, Life and Death in the Hands of Fate! The mistress, heartbroken by her two godmothers, wholeheartedly seeks refuge with Ma.
"What does this mean?"

"I get it! This day is really special!"

"The movie does have a sense of unnecessarily mysterious, but the date it emphasizes is indeed very meaningful!"

"This date... Oh, I see!"

The film "The Sun Also Rises" sparked considerable controversy upon its release.

This poster is very special, yet very simple... it highlights something that's hard to understand.

However, there will definitely be people who can understand it.

Mr. Dai Jinhua of Peking University gave this film high praise.

It is called: Jiang Wen's masterpiece of cinematic art.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't understand it.

From its magical opening to its almost prophetic finale, *The Sun Also Rises* reveals the director's profound insight into life. Every detail in the film is like a meticulously crafted puzzle, waiting for the audience to unravel. Despite the ongoing controversy, it is precisely this interplay of ambiguity and clarity that makes the film so captivating.

The flowers and children's smiling faces of the future are all very concrete images.

We will have a very bright future, and we will continue to move forward!

In fact, Ma Xun's influence on this film was mainly in terms of marketing and screening schedule.

Whether this movie can be understood by more people depends mainly on Jiang Wen.

Anyway, Ma Xun had already given the instructions.

When doing roadshow events and interacting with fans.

"Don't be so aloof, you idiot."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wen refused to acknowledge it.

"No, when have I ever been aloof?"

Just listen to what he's saying; he's really going at Ma Xun with all his might.

However, that's just how this guy is; let's communicate as much as we can.

In fact, Ma Xun wasn't very confident about whether he could break 100 million.

But that's the current situation; the National Day holiday film season is essentially a huge gap in releases, with no better alternatives.

Even if they insisted on making that film, "Japan Sinks," it probably wouldn't work.

After all, it's an old film, and forcing it to be released won't get it much at the box office.

It can be said that this is all Ma Xun can do. Whether "The Sun Also Rises" is successful or not, we can only look forward to Jiang Wen's next work.

Naturally, the next project was already planned long ago.

That's the situation for the National Day film season; Ma Xun has done his best.

From a profit perspective, he should be planning for the year-end holiday season now.

Hmm, wait a minute, have we been focusing too much on movies lately?

Ma Xun himself didn't feel anything, but some people did feel it very strongly.

……

"Hey girl, the play 'Wang Zhaojun' is finally going to air, so you'd better be on your best."

"I understand, I'm sure."

"Don't just talk about it, you can't embarrass us."

"Godmother, don't worry."

"Don't embarrass yourself by going with CCTV for this publicity campaign!"

After so many years working under her two godmothers, it seems that Xiao Mi has finally made it.

The first major drama produced by CCTV is finally about to meet the audience.

To be honest, Xiao Mi had already made up her mind.

He definitely won't be hanging out with his godmother anymore.

However, this major CCTV drama has kept Xiao Mi from getting away from it for a while.

Moreover, there are some new changes to this drama.

That means that when this movie was originally filmed, that guy hadn't even become a star yet.

Later, "Soldiers Sortie" became a huge hit, and many people in the show became famous. Cheng Cai was a very important character, with more screen time than Sergeant Shi Jin, so he naturally became famous as well.

Indeed, although this "Wang Zhaojun" is still a major CCTV production, the long production time has led to changes in the cast, giving the impression that younger actors and actresses are taking center stage.

Originally, it should have been Teacher Tu Men who was in charge of this production.

He is a very talented actor, and his portrayal of Zuo Lengchan back then was quite memorable.

But after all, he's a talented actor, and as everyone knows, talented actors usually don't have as much popularity.

Now the situation has changed; Chen has been promoted to a higher rank.

He has the presence to carry a drama series.

Xiao Mi has also changed. Although her trip to the United States cannot be described as a complete makeover, she has certainly gotten rid of her square face.

When she appeared before, there was some controversy, and her response was... basically no response.

Anyway, I'm not going to talk about this. You can say whatever you want.

Interestingly, despite the numerous controversies, Xiao Mi's popularity has not decreased; on the contrary, it has increased.

That's really strange.

But it's nothing, there are plenty of examples of people becoming famous through controversy these days.

But returning to this film, "Wang Zhaojun," it's clear that Mr. Chen has quite the ambition.

He had previously planned to join forces with me.

He said: Girl, we should take advantage of this CCTV drama to take our relationship to the next level.

So eager for progress?

But this drama is named after Xiao Mi, who plays Wang Zhaojun; she is the real star.

Furthermore... no matter how ambitious you are, your abilities are lacking.

Xiao Mi actually looks down on Chen. They are friends, but not the kind of friends who admire each other. Instead, they are more like friends who tease each other.

So, while not outright refusing, I was rather disheartened.

However, Xiao Mi also hopes that this drama will achieve some success, after all, it is a major production on CCTV.

She replied to Chen, "Whether it works out or not, it's up to fate."

It's a rather mystical answer, or rather, it's almost the same as no answer at all.

Mr. Chen was certainly quite confused.

In reality, Xiaomi has other projects as well.

The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3!
This drama will air shortly after "Wang Zhaojun" premieres. While it won't be a direct competition, it will definitely be one.

Most importantly, she played the female lead in both of these films.

This would be a very special opportunity.

Does the success of a particular film or television series determine one's future direction?
Of course, I'll definitely be with Brother Ma in the future.

Xiao Mi's idea was good; naturally, whatever her two godmothers said went in one ear and out the other.

But in the end...

"Are you really not going to consider the Dream of the Red Chamber this time, girl?"

"Ah."

Xiaomi had already made a decision about this new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" project.

We'll listen to Brother Ma!
But now, seeing the disappointed expressions on her two godmothers' faces, she hesitated somewhat.

After all, they haven't been together for very long, and this new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is indeed a very big project.

Unexpectedly, my godmother mentioned another project.

"Actually, we're also planning to make another movie, in which you'll star. In addition, there's a TV series called 'Dark Fragrance,' for which we'll cast Huang Xiaoming as the male lead. As for the female lead…"

"Oh? Is it me?"

My girlfriend is getting excited again.

But her godmother said, "You like looking at handsome guys, right? Now that you have one, why ask for so much more?"

"That's it."

Goodness, two godmothers! The mistress was overwhelmed with questions.

At last……

"The female lead is Wang Luodan."

Xiao Mi was disappointed when she heard this, but she still managed a smile.

Wang Luodan has only been in the industry for a few years!

She only became popular this year because of her role in "Struggle". Besides, in that show, she was quite dark-skinned and didn't even outdo the new Ziwei in the drama.

The mistress thought to herself, "They're going all out."

"Oh, okay, I understand." But on the surface, she still had to keep quiet.

snort!
Anyway, I've figured it out. That's just how it is with the two godmothers.

Rongxin and Li, they have no idea that they have already pushed their goddaughter away.

They were still happy, feeling that they had taken good care of their mistress and that the resources provided were quite good.

They chatted happily, but in their hearts they had already gone their separate ways.

Interestingly, when Xiao Mi was leaving the company, she saw someone.

This girl looks a bit rustic at first glance; to put it bluntly, she's a country bumpkin.

But there was something in his eyes. The key point was that he met his two godmothers and had a very pleasant conversation with them.

The mistress couldn't resist eavesdropping for a bit.

"Okay, I'll cooperate with whatever the two teachers plan to do."

"That's fine, that's fine."

After listening to a few sentences, it seems to be related to the new version of "Dream of the Red Chamber".

Xiao Mi couldn't help but think to herself: Humph! This country bumpkin is much more obedient.

But she wouldn't listen, and soon after leaving the company, she couldn't wait to call Brother Ma. ...

Dashilan.

This place has quite a history, but recently a place for listening to crosstalk has become popular.

Every night, many people come over, some to bring flower baskets, others to show their support.

When Xiao Mi came here, she felt it was quite strange.

"No, Brother Ma, why did you bring this to listen to?"

"Huh? You don't like crosstalk?"

"It's not that I don't like it, it's just..."

"Are you falling behind the trend?"

"hey-hey……"

Xiao Mi's smile looked guilty, clearly indicating that Ma Xun had hit the nail on the head.

That's right, the person who brought his mistress here to listen to crosstalk was none other than Ma Xun.

However, this crosstalk performer is rather special.

Not long after, they saw a man who was not tall and a bit chubby, but who had a certain presence as soon as he appeared.

"he……"

"This guy's really popular lately."

My mistress had also heard about him; his name was Guo something-or-other.

It is said that many people in Beijing now enjoy listening to his crosstalk performances.

However... once the crosstalk started, laughter and applause kept coming.

Where's the mistress?
It's quite awkward to laugh along with them.

Ma Xun saw through it. "Okay, you hold on until he finishes a section, then we'll go for a walk."

Xiao Mi felt a surge of joy upon hearing this.

"Brother Ma, you're so good to me."

Yes, we're taking her feelings into consideration.

Ma Xunzhen didn't think it was a big deal, mainly because he had already talked to Lao Guo about it.

The drama is called "Falling Leaves Return to Their Roots".

Old Guo needs to put in some effort.

As for the crosstalk, it doesn't really matter whether you listen to it or not; just sending the flower basket is enough.

……

After finally finishing listening to the crosstalk, Xiao Mi got into Ma Xun's car.

It's supposed to be a walk, but driving is also nice.

Slow down.

"Brother Ma, am I...?"

Don't overthink it.

"I get sleepy when I listen to crosstalk, so..."

"It's a new era now, and I also enjoy playing online games."

His mistress was overjoyed when he said that.
So he told Ma Xun everything, all the way up to the girl he had seen by chance before.

"she?"

"What's wrong? Brother Ma, do you know him?"

"I don't know her, but it seems... she acted in a TV series with Xu Guangtou, and she also filmed an advertisement for Sohu?"

"Huh? I didn't know... I didn't know she had been in the industry for a while."

Who are they talking about?

Ma Xun felt that the woman Xiao Mi described to him must be Zhao Liying.

The girl who could later be ranked alongside Xiao Mi as one of the top actresses of the 85 generation does seem a bit outdated now.

However, if that's the case...

"It seems your godmother has figured it out too."

"What do you see?"

"That girl will most likely accept your resources."

Just one sentence from Ma Xun was enough to make Xiao Mi feel incredibly upset.

Ma Xun naturally noticed this as well, so he said, "How about I take you home first?"

Xiao Mi grabbed Ma Xun's hand and said, "Drive, drive out of the city."

What does it mean?
Ma Xun didn't say much, he simply sped up.

When the car arrived at a secluded spot in the suburbs, Xiao Mi couldn't wait to kiss him.

Ma Xun was so taken aback by this sudden enthusiasm that he found himself breathing heavily.

They looked at each other until they parted ways.

"Sad?"

"No."

"That's fine."

"Ok!"

Xiao Mi's stubbornness made Ma Xun's mouth water.

They kissed again very quickly.

Ma Xun understood that his mistress needed his support at this time.

He should give him his full support.

……

After that wild night, Xiao Mi actually got hooked and pestered Ma Ge three more times.

She did go a bit too far, and she knows it herself.

But after that, she would have to get busy.

Participated in a series of promotional activities for "Wang Zhaojun".

Even CCTV dramas need to be promoted now, so they're all pretty much the same.

Moreover, after she finishes her work here, she will have to join the promotion of "Chinese Paladin 3".

In short, I'm very busy.

So, indulging a little before getting busy isn't a bad thing.

After she finished her activities with CCTV...

They followed the trend of "Chinese Paladin 3" again.

As a result, the situation with these two dramas...

The performance of "Wang Zhaojun" was quite good!

It's still okay, at least in the initial stages.

But later... well, CCTV, after all, can at least maintain a certain bottom line.

But after "Chinese Paladin 3" premiered... it became a huge hit!
Seriously, the difference is visible to the naked eye.

The mistress was overjoyed.

I really didn't expect this show to be such a hit, and even some of the other characters in it are now very popular.

For example, Longkui, and Tang Yan with her long legs.

This is really...

Xiao Mi was overjoyed; she couldn't resist going to find Brother Ma in high spirits.

But I didn't expect...

"The boss went to America."

"what?"

The mistress was actually stopped by Wen Yongshan.

United States?

Xiao Mi was a little disappointed, but an idea immediately popped into her head.

We'll wait for him to come back.

Wen Yongshan, of course, saw right through her best friend.

"You little slut, you couldn't hold back any longer, could you?"

As the saying goes, the truth is the sharpest knife.

Xiao Mi and Wen Yongshan immediately started laughing and joking.

Everyone's a show-off, so who's afraid of who?

……

Actually, Ma Xun's trip to the United States this time wasn't entirely unexpected.

He still has some arrangements to make before the Lunar New Year film season.

Moreover, he was accompanied by a woman on this trip to the United States.

"Brother Ma, someone will see this."

"What are you afraid of? It's just pinching your little cheek."

Yan Danchen, the most beautiful Chang'e, is issuing a protest.

Unfortunately, it was of little use.

Ma Xun must really like the soft feel of this stuff.
