Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 275 Happiness is for oneself, sadness for the audience.

"Oh, right," Qi Hui said with a smile, "I brought some gifts for you."

Upon hearing this, Jing Tian immediately opened her bag, took out two small gift boxes, and handed them to Tang Yifei and Tang Yixin respectively.

"What is it?" Xiao Zhang and Lao Ling each leaned closer to their partners, looking on curiously.

Soon, Tang Yifei and Tang Yixin each opened their gift boxes and found a pair of exquisitely carved teeth inside.

Wow! So beautiful!

Tang Yixin and Tang Yifei exclaimed in surprise, and with some delight, they looked at the pair of teeth in their hands with their respective boyfriends.

Qi Hui's carving skills are quite good, with exquisite patterns and textures, and it has been polished with a high grit.

"What...what kind of teeth are these?" Old Ling touched them, puzzled.

It feels very smooth and warm to the touch, and looks like a wolf's tooth, but a wolf's tooth isn't this blunt or this round.

"The teeth of a saltwater crocodile." Qi Hui smiled faintly and said, "I killed a large crocodile that weighed about 500 pounds."

"Hiss hiss hiss—!" Xiao Zhang gasped, his teeth aching with envy.

Suddenly, he felt that the new car wasn't so appealing anymore!

"If it wasn't % how you hit it?" Old Ling retorted sarcastically.

In his efforts to fish for and hunt large aquatic creatures weighing around 10 kilograms, he even suffered food poisoning.

But Qi Hui did something quite different: he went and hunted a 500-pound crocodile.
Damn, I’m so envious!
“In the United States, there are professional hunting areas and hunting companies,” Qi Hui said.
"A few of us even rode in a helicopter and shot down several wild boar pens..."

"Brother, stop talking, or I won't be able to sleep tonight!" Xiao Zhang said, feeling a pang of sadness.

"Hmph, so what if you hunt crocodiles?" Old Ling said sourly, "Aren't you still just fishing for fish and getting nothing in return?"

Tang Yifei found out that the grass carp she caught last time was actually caught by Jing Tian.

As for Qi Hui, don't be fooled by his skill at grilling fish, he's actually just an air force guy!

Upon hearing this, Qi Hui chuckled and quickly opened the window of the ward.

The air in the room smelled a bit sour, like a vinegar jar had been overturned.

……

Community.

Upstairs in his study, Qi Hui was working on the script for "The Beginning".

Actually, it had already been completed before, and it was even the original script from before the time travel, but something just felt off.

Think about it some more!
When Qi Hui visited Lao Ling before, he also sent some crocodile teeth and bluefish stones as gifts to some friends.

If you have a good relationship with someone, give them a crocodile tooth; if you're not so close, give them a bluefish stone.

Gao Yuanyuan, Zhou Xun, Yang Xue, Tang Jing, Yang Mi... they're not all women, there are men too.

For example, Qi Hui also sent gifts to Chen Kunzu Feng, Wu Gang Feng Enhe, and others.

It's a bit strange... It's somewhat reminiscent of Li Chen's heart-shaped stone.

However, it's not a big problem; Li Chen's heart-shaped stone is fake.

But his crocodile teeth and bluefish stones were dug out of the mouth of a 500-pound crocodile and the throat of a bluefish weighing more than 10 pounds.

The real deal!

Qi Hui's attention was not on these trivial matters, but on the script of "The Beginning".

Why does Li Shiqing, the female lead in "The Beginning," keep trying to save people even after being bombed so many times?
Because she is a kind person!
It's not entirely wrong, but Qi Hui always felt that the reason was too weak.

Especially after Li Shiqing was stabbed to death by Aunt Guo while saving someone, none of the passengers on the bus offered any help.

She wavered, but did not give up.

Even if the male protagonist, Xiao Heyun, tells her that these people are not worth saving.

Kindness is a plausible reason, but as I said before, it's somewhat weak.

Qi Hui wanted to give her a more plausible motive for saving the person.

Besides kindness, there must be something else supporting Li Shiqing.

After all, she was facing a bomb!

Qi Hui thought for a moment, and finally wrote two words on the paper:

faith!

Besides these, Qi Hui also modified several loops that didn't contribute much to advancing the plot.

Either put it into another loop to form a scene, or delete it.

One more thing, the ending was just too wonderful. Everyone got what they deserved, and it was a happy ending.

This isn't profound enough... or rather, it doesn't evoke tears.

To leave a lasting impression on the audience, someone must die; either the male or female lead must die.
After thinking it over, Qi Hui finally decided that the male lead, Xiao Heyun, would be played by himself, and that the character would die in the play.

And he will die a horrible death, risking everything to save the female lead and the people in the car.

When everyone was rescued and immersed in the joy of surviving the ordeal, and everything came to a beautiful end, Xiao Heyun's cyclical aftereffects completely erupted. Covered in blood, he died in the arms of the female lead.

The joy of being rescued on the bus contrasts sharply with the female protagonist's heart-wrenching grief over the male protagonist's death.

"Sigh, I hope the audience won't cry too much...hehehe."

Qi Hui chuckled strangely, suddenly understanding Yu Hua's idea: keep the happiness for yourself and leave the sadness for the readers.

With swift strokes of his pen, revising and rewriting, Qi Hui's thoughts flowed like a torrent, as if he were urinating uncontrollably.

The thought of making the audience cry gave Qi Hui a strange sense of motivation.

……

Tuk-tuk-tuk~
A soft knock sounded on the door. Qi Hui looked up and saw Jing Tian standing by the door.

"Uh……?"

“You’ve been inside for too long, so I came to check on you…” Jing Tian said softly.

She was somewhat worried about Qi Hui, and also afraid that she might disturb him.

Qi Hui looked out the window and realized that it was getting dark.

When I checked the time, I realized I had been in the study for several hours.

"Oh, I got a little lost in thought." Qi Hui stood up and slowly stretched.

"Come on, let me give you a massage." Jing Tian pulled Qi Hui and sat him on the spacious sofa in the living room.

She straddled Qi Hui's lap, reaching out to gently massage his shoulders.

"Dinner is almost ready. We just need to wait for the chicken soup to cook. I added goji berries, red dates, and ginseng."

"Mmm..." Qi Hui enjoyed Jing Tian's massage, feeling waves of happiness in his heart.

ding dong~
Just then, his phone rang. Qi Hui picked it up and saw that it was a message from Gao Yuanyuan:
"Thank you for the gift, a saltwater crocodile tooth, it's quite valuable!"

"You're welcome, Sister Yuan. My spoils are just handicrafts, nothing valuable," Qi Hui replied.

Gao Yuanyuan: "What are you doing?"

Qi Hui: "Hugging my girlfriend"

Looking at the message on her phone, Gao Yuanyuan's eyes twitched, and a strange sense of resentment welled up inside her, and she suddenly became angry.

He immediately typed a string of words to Qi Hui: "Are you free tomorrow? How about we go out for a drink?"

Qi Hui: "My legs can't move."

"Why?" Gao Yuanyuan asked, puzzled. What was there that she couldn't leave?
Qi Hui: "My girlfriend wants to sit."

Jing Tian glanced at her phone screen, her eyes crinkling into a sweet smile.

On the other side of the capital;
Looking at the message on the screen, Gao Yuanyuan felt a wave of sadness.

I was actually fed a huge dose of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)! How could this be!

Zhou Xun leaned over to take a look and was speechless for a moment: "Why are you getting angry for no reason?"

"Now you've brought shame upon yourself, haven't you?"

"Hmph...who told him to talk so rudely?" Gao Yuanyuan snorted, somewhat annoyed.

However, she also knew that her invitation was somewhat inappropriate.

She brought over a full-length mirror, gripped her loose clothes tightly with both hands, and accentuated her curvaceous figure:

"Sister Xun, do you think I'm worse than his girlfriend?"

Zhou Xun rolled her eyes: "I'll answer your question when I meet Qi Hui's girlfriend."

Actually, she had met her before. The entertainment industry isn't that big; how could she not have met Jing Tian?

But they were only nodding acquaintances and did not have any in-depth conversations.

"Tch..." Gao Yuanyuan loosened her clothes and ignored her.

She was simply a little resentful; she thought, "I'm pretty too!"
