Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 270 Qi Hui promotes the beautiful language of China
Los Angeles International Airport.

Qi Hui and his companions carried large and small bags, but it wasn't a big problem, and staff members soon came to help.

This isn't because American airport staff are particularly kind and offer help without expecting anything in return.

Instead, they had purchased business class... no, first class tickets.

That's roughly the idea; it's the kind of cabin where you can lie down and sleep, enjoying the most luxurious and comfortable services on an airplane.

"We still have two hours, shall we go to the VIP lounge for a bit?" Qi Hui suggested, glancing at the time.

They were all eager to return home and came to the airport early in the morning to wait.

As VIPs, they didn't actually need to come early to check in, but Qi Hui and the others, eager to return to China, still came.

"Let's go." Wu Jing and the others immediately agreed and, led by the staff, headed to the VIP lounge.

The lounge is quite spacious, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking airplane jet bridges and such.

The lounge has plenty of recreational facilities, including food and drinks, showers, a place to sleep, movies to watch, and a large selection of newspapers to read.

Don't worry about missing your flight while you're having fun; staff will come to look for you and remind you before takeoff.

Artificial intelligence belongs to this category.

Qi Hui and the others found a spot by the window to sit down and picked up a newspaper to read.

These days, mobile internet is just emerging, and print media hasn't completely faded away.

Guo Jingming reaped the last benefits before the decline of print media.

After graduating, he founded several publishing houses specifically to publish his novels.

Riding on the novel's popularity, it was also adapted into a film and television series.

On the other side, Lu Yang and Guo Fan put down their backpacks and went to get some food.

When they passed by the food area earlier, they saw things like French snails, steak, and caviar.

We've already spent so much money, might as well eat it!
Qi Hui and Wu Jing didn't move. As actors, they needed to pay attention to their figures and control their diets at all times.

"Huh?" Wu exclaimed in surprise, flipping through the newspaper with a look of astonishment.

He glanced at the newspaper, then at Qi Hui.

"Huh?" Qi Hui asked, puzzled. Why that expression?

"You're in the newspaper." Wu Jing grinned, unable to contain himself.

"What?" Qi Hui exclaimed in shock, and immediately leaned over to take a look, only to find that it was an entertainment news newspaper.

The front page headline was about the start of the Chinese American Film Festival and the awarding of the Golden Angel Award, which had nothing to do with Qi Hui.

But the side story is different; it's an interview with Chris Hemsworth speaking Chinese.

The photo above shows Chris laughing heartily, and the newspaper reported on the two Chinese sentences he uttered.

Of course, they are all transliterations.

Chris also expressed his gratitude to the Chinese friend who taught him Chinese.

Once Thor: The Dark World is released, he will definitely go to China to find that friend.

Qi Hui scratched his head, somewhat confused. Logically, the problem should have been discovered by now, after so much time.

Are Chris and the American media masters of feigning ignorance?
Qi Hui took out his phone and opened YouTube to search.

Soon after, I saw a video of Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Tom Loki being interviewed and then saying those two sentences in Chinese.

In the video comments, netizens from all over the world are joining in the celebration.

"Haha, who taught you this? It's hilarious."

"As expected of Thor, this is so interesting!"

"You idiot, how dare you insult us like this?"

"How can this be? Why are you treating us like this? Aren't we allies with the United States?"

"What do these two sentences in Mandarin mean? They seem quite interesting?"

“Insults, like ‘Kuynis,’ ‘Hurrah,’ ‘Sukbare ...Insects,’”

"Haha, I see."

"I don't understand, dear Chinese friends. Can you use English? I'm American."

"Chuannis, very good; shin chicken, don't eat the pickled radish."

"Wow, no wonder you're all laughing so happily."

"Haha, I came here because I've heard so much about it."

"Joy, there must be a Han Chinese guiding Thor behind the scenes."

"This is so interesting! Who is promoting our Chinese culture like this?"

"It must be Jiang Wen. Didn't he teach Quentin?"

"That makes sense, hahaha."

Qi Hui looked at the comments above and smiled with satisfaction. "As expected of me, doing good deeds anonymously, keeping my merits hidden!"
"Hahaha..." Wu Jing slapped his thigh and laughed, "Brother, you've done something big!"

While laughing, he took out his phone and downloaded the video.

Of course, I should share this fun thing with Xie Nan!
"Why do you look so gloating?" Qi Hui pursed his lips and pushed Wu Jing's face away.

……

The waiting time was somewhat unbearable, but Qi Hui and the others didn't find it so.

The main reason is that this matter is just too interesting.

The group chuckled strangely, browsing netizens' comments through the screen, experiencing a thrill akin to criminals returning to the scene to witness their masterpiece.

Qi Hui was the principal offender, while the others were accomplices.

Happy times always pass too quickly, and soon staff came to remind them that it was time to board the plane.

Qi Hui and his companions were somewhat reluctant to leave, but the thought of returning home made them forget about it.

What video?

What smells better than a boyfriend?
Qi Hui took a deep breath; he had been eagerly anticipating this moment for a long time.

I miss the lively and sweet Jing Tian, ​​I miss the fragrant and soft Jing Tian, ​​I miss the clingy and affectionate Jing Tian...

In short, I just miss Jing Tian.

Board the plane, find a seat, lie down and sleep.

Next comes a flight of more than ten hours.

……

The flight was uneventful.

When Qi Hui and the others landed, it was exactly seven or eight o'clock in the morning in the capital.

Qi Hui and his group wanted to go straight home, but people from China Film Group came to pick them up at the airport.

Tell Qi Hui and the others that there is a press conference at noon, and they need to attend.

They were among the first film talents to go to the United States for exchanges, and they caused such a big stir on the internet, so China Film Group wanted to take this opportunity to hold a press conference.

On the one hand, they wanted to showcase their own work achievements, and on the other hand, they wanted to elevate the status of Qi Hui and the others.

It will be easier to invest in movies in the future.

China Film Group is a state-owned enterprise, and everything is governed by rules and regulations. It also needs to assume corresponding social responsibilities.

In comparison, they are naturally less flexible than other investors.

Faced with such a thoughtful consideration from China Film Group, Qi Hui and his companions had no reason to refuse.

He immediately suppressed his eagerness to return home and began preparing for the press conference a few hours later.

……

At noon, the hall was crowded with people, and a bunch of cameras were pointed at Qi Hui and his group sitting at the front of the stage.

The representative from China Film Group spoke first, briefly explaining the situation, before moving on to the Q&A session.

The person from China Film Group looked around. He was in charge of selecting reporters, and immediately chose a reporter who was in the middle.

"Hello, I'd like to ask Qi Hui, is there any amazing high-tech stuff in Hollywood?"

The surrounding reporters curled their lip in disdain, thinking that such a mild question must be a plant by China Film Group.

Qi Hui chuckled and said, "Of course, a few of us have been exposed to VR and AR technologies over there."

Are you curious about what VR and AR are?

Qi Hui chuckled and said, "VR is virtual reality technology, which makes people feel as if they are in the dazzling and bizarre world of a movie."

"Although it's not the most accurate description, it can be understood as an enhanced version of 3D technology."

"AR is augmented reality technology, which makes good use of interactive technology and optoelectronic display technology to enhance the realism of the virtual world."

"Simply put, using these two technologies, the audience will feel as if they have entered the world of the movie..."

"besides……"

Qi Hui explained the VR technology in detail, and also talked about its future development.

The reporters were somewhat stunned. Was there really such advanced technology?

"I think that in about ten years, these so-called high-tech technologies will become commonplace in ordinary people's homes," Qi Hui concluded.

"next."

A reporter quickly stood up, his gaze sweeping over the people on the stage before settling on Qi Hui:
"Hello Qi Hui, I'd like to know, as an actor, why did you choose to study directing?"

"Have you reached the pinnacle of your acting career and can't go any further?"

"Or is directing a profession with a very low barrier to entry, where anyone can pick up the director's microphone?"

Qi Hui narrowed his eyes; the newcomer was clearly up to no good!
