Huayu: When the director changed his major

[What?! Such a young and handsome director! Even if I were Taylor Swift, I'd like him!]

Yes! I heard he's incredibly wealthy, not just a director, but also a domineering CEO!

[Mysterious Cheng, come look at me! I have big breasts, do you like them? I can send you nude photos!]

[You people, I've never seen you interested in people of Chinese descent before, what's wrong? Have you all been conquered by some mysterious Eastern power now?]

No way, I'm going back to school tomorrow, and I'm going to get that Asian guy who confessed to me to go on a date with me!

Of course, these are all female fans.

I'm not interested in Taylor Swift's gossip, I just want to experience a romance with an exotic flair.

As for the men, they were much more rational, and many even doubted the value of Cheng Xi's credentials.

[This young Cheng is so talented, why doesn't our Meizhou University have such a genius?]

[The person upstairs is joking. Our country, the United States, has the most great directors in the world. He's just a young Chinese man!]

[A $15 billion box office, and they even wrote a song for Taylor Swift? Only a fool would believe this is true.]

[This is definitely a movie promotion. I saw "Detective Chinatown 1," and I'd say it was just okay; there were so many parts I didn't understand!]

I think we should look at this objectively. At least based on the current information, they seem to be genuine. Otherwise, the Chinese themselves would have exposed them long ago.

As everyone's enthusiasm for the discussion grew.

With the added boost from the publicity team.

Posts about "Mysterious Cheng", "Genius Cheng", and "Eastern Equation" remain consistently popular.

As soon as you log onto Twitter, you'll see these kinds of messages very quickly.

Cheng Xi already had many young fans in the country, and his story doesn't need to be embellished.

Simply translate the English text slightly, upload it to a platform, and add some videos as proof to greatly amplify the promotional effect.

Of course, what Americans are most interested in right now is the relationship between Cheng Xi and Taylor Swift.

Judging from the number of views on the video, the part where Taylor Swift dances for him has exceeded ten million.

This is already a very high number of clicks on Twitter.

Moreover, this has only been less than 24 hours.

This immediately brought Cheng Xi's trending topics and exposé posts to the attention of people including Smith, White, Braun, and James Wan.

Smith, of course, cursed incessantly.

But he doesn't dare to make any small moves now, because he learned through CAA that Cheng Xi and Taylor Swift are getting along well.

He also made connections with high-ranking officials at DC.

Moreover, Cheng Xi has leverage over Smith, and if Smith is actually sued, he has no confidence in winning the case.

Braun sighed and immediately called Taylor Swift after seeing the video.

Taylor Swift, are you on Twitter?

"I'm swiping it now."

Braun could still hear laughter coming from the other side from time to time, and knew that it would be difficult to persuade them to stop.

But still, fulfilling his responsibility, he said:
"Are you and Cheng going to develop a romantic relationship?"

"If it's possible, why not? He understands me so well and is so outstanding, much better than my ex-boyfriends!"

When Braun heard the phrase "why not," he paused for a few seconds, unable to speak.

Finally, gathering his thoughts, he forced himself to speak:

“But Taylor Swift, don’t you think Cheng Xi has ulterior motives? Maybe he’s just using your fame to promote his movie.”

"Braun, you're my agent. Just give me advice on business matters, and don't interfere in my personal life."

"But."

"No buts. I know Cheng. He's not the same kind of person as you. Try to learn more about his work. Your prejudice is hindering your rational thinking."

After saying that, Taylor Swift hung up.

He continued scrolling through Twitter comments with a cheerful smile.

Braun was left to sigh.

Taylor Swift's relationship with this Chinese man is getting closer and closer.

Only then did he begin to regret not having cultivated a better relationship with Cheng Xi back then. Otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a passive position now.

Meanwhile, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, whom Cheng Xi met at the banquet, are currently promoting their movie on various platforms.

Who knew that a "mysterious Cheng" would suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Speaking of this, they basically had no recollection of this person.

The man greeted them warmly until his assistant mentioned that they had met at the last banquet.

Only then did he react.

Depp: "He was quite unremarkable back then, but JuJu next to him was very sexy."

Amber Heard: "I didn't realize he was so rich."

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt also saw Cheng Xi trending on social media while at home.

Pete clicked in and watched for a while, quite interested.

Unexpectedly, what was said at the time was true, and some even said that this person's net worth had exceeded 20 billion US dollars.

It's clear that he's more than just a director.

"Julie, didn't that Chinese guy Cheng give us a business card last time? Do you see it here?"

"I just threw them together when I got back, I didn't notice. Why are you asking me?"

"I'd like to work with him."

"What?!"

Jolie's surprised "what" made Pitt laugh.

Then I told her my thoughts.

Julie also felt it was a good opportunity, after all, this person was a huge fan of her husband.

It will definitely be of some help to him.

"Moreover, I've heard that he's currently in frequent contact with high-ranking DC executives and is about to finalize the copyright."

"So, who do you think he'll cast in the role?"

Julie's eyes grew brighter and brighter after hearing this.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, this Cheng whom I looked down upon actually possessed such power.

Being able to buy the copyright to DC means you're not just rich.

What's more, he's a wealthy director.

Not only on Twitter, but also on Weibo, it's incredibly lively right now.

[I never imagined Director Cheng would bring such beauties like Bingbing, Fan Bingbing, and Li Yifei to the American Center to dance in the square! That's absolutely amazing!]

[Not only awesome, but also classy! We're here to promote our square dancing culture! Let's invade the world!]

To be honest, I didn't expect that even though Director Cheng is not in China, his legend is still circulating there.

[And did you guys see the dance Taylor Swift danced for Director Cheng this time? I'm so envious of Director Cheng, he gets girls wherever he goes!]

[I don't care how many girls Director Cheng dates, I just hope he finishes filming soon so he can come back and update my novel! Qiao Jingjing and Yu Tu are so sweet, I really haven't had enough of them!]

Yes, yes, Director Cheng, please come back soon, we miss you so much!

The discussion in China was slightly delayed this time.

After all, there is a 12-hour time difference.

By the next day, everyone had realized what had happened.

It turns out Cheng Xi has stirred up big news again on the other side of the ocean.

It even made it to their trending topics.

Even many newspapers and television programs are discussing this "mysterious process" or "genius process".

Watching Cheng Xi lead a group of beautiful women, and even an international superstar like Taylor Swift, dancing in the square!

It's hard not to laugh.

As expected, when it comes to cultural promotion, we still have to rely on Director Cheng! (End of Chapter)
