Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 340 Mr. Qi doesn't live off women; he has real skills.
Some have said that creating a film is like cooking a dish; some have said that my films, Teng Huatao's films, are like a pot of yellowish Indian food, soup and all; some have said that I, Teng Huatao, am a novice and need to practice more; some have said that I, Teng Huatao, am not proving myself, but providing evidence.

But today, I'm going to use my new film's box office to tell everyone that only clowns make outrageous statements and try to attract attention; now, I ask you: am I proving myself, or providing evidence?

As soon as I clicked on Teng Huatao's Weibo, a long text popped up.

Qi Hui glanced at it twice and couldn't help but chuckle.

Although no names were mentioned, it was clear from every sentence that he was referring to Qi.

Below this long text is an accompanying image showing the box office data for the movie "Where Are We Going, Dad?".

The box office was 94 million on the first day and 250 million in the first week.

If this trend continues, box office revenue of 600 to 700 million yuan will be no problem.

Despite being called a clown by Teng Huatao, Qi Hui was not angry.

He was just a little surprised that "Where Are We Going, Dad?" wasn't directed by Teng Huatao, was it?

I immediately opened the search box and searched. Soon, the relevant information popped up.

It is definitely not a film directed by Teng Huatao, nor is it a work he wrote.

However, Teng Huatao served as the producer of this film.

Upon seeing this, Qi Hui immediately smiled.

In a producer-centric system like Hollywood, Teng Huatao's behavior of treating films as his own works would be perfectly acceptable.

But China is different from Hollywood; it's not producer-centric, but director-centric.

In China, the role and actual effect of the producer in the creation of a film are far less important than that of the director.

However, "Where Are We Going, Dad?" is still a variety show movie, and the producer's role is a bit bigger compared to that of a regular movie.

"Has Teng Huatao been suppressed for too long, and now he's desperate and grasping at straws?"

They dare to show their teeth in an entire variety show movie?

Qi Hui pursed his lips. If he wasn't mistaken, Teng Huatao would soon be in a real mess.

This movie is obviously problematic. It only took two months from the confirmation of filming to its release, clearly indicating that it was designed to rake in box office profits.

Secondly, this is less of a movie and more of a two-hour variety show.

Even the characters in the films are played by the actors themselves; they don't even change their names.

Whether this is a movie or not is still up for debate.

Film critics will soon begin to discuss and criticize this issue.

Therefore, Qi Hui didn't mind being a leader.

Immediately click to comment and share, tap your finger to leave a comment on the screen:
I recently heard a story about a second-generation director whose father and mother are both directors, who, instead of making movies or TV series, became a producer, creating variety show movies. It's truly tragic; the profession of producer has become something anyone can do, lacking both professional competence and ethics!

Qi Hui didn't say anything; he simply copied and pasted Teng Huatao's criticism of him and posted it.

This approach was too overtly aggressive, and it quickly attracted the attention of netizens:
"Haha, that sounds familiar. Who said that again?"

"Hey~, @Director Teng Huatao, what did your dad teach you?"

"Xiaoyu: Dad, I've learned it! I'm going to use magic to defeat magic!"

Teng Huatao: Qi Hui, how dare you use my magic against me?

"Hahaha, this is hilarious!"

"For those who don't know, the quote upstairs is from 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.' The original quote is from Professor Snape to Harry Potter: 'Potter, how dare you use my magic against me!'"

"Hahaha, this moment is just like that moment back then!"

"How can they be so similar?"

"It's so similar, so very similar!"

"However, Qi Hui is missing one thing compared to Teng Huatao."

"Could it be some kind of magical ability to produce excrement?"

"Of course not, it's just that Qi Hui wouldn't pretend to be confused!"

"Damn it, stop talking, upstairs! If you keep going, those South Koreans will be trying to get 'Let the Bullets Fly' listed as a UNESCO World Heritage film!"

"Hahaha, isn't this much better than the movie?" "@Director Teng Huatao, come and see!"

"..."

Netizens were making fun of the memes while tagging Teng Huatao.

They even started a line-chain game in Qi Hui's comment section.

Soon, Qi Hui's Weibo comment section was full of vitality, a vibrant scene of everything vying for attention.

On the other side of the capital

boom!
Teng Huatao grabbed the exquisite crystal glass from the table and smashed it hard on the ground.

In an instant, shards flew everywhere, the silver bottle shattered, and it shone as brilliantly as a diamond.

"Fuck you!" He was so angry that his fat face turned red.

Teng Huatao never expected that Qi Hui would be so shameless.

They actually copied and pasted his words to insult him.

This is an insult to him!
"You just wait!" Teng Huatao gritted his teeth, immediately abandoning his original plan to rest.

He's going to direct a TV series to target Qi Hui!
That bastard Qi Hui is working on a TV series, isn't he? I'll make sure he can't!
Are you saying my movie is no good?

What about TV dramas?
Let's see if you dare say that again!
Teng Huatao secretly hardened his heart, picked up his computer, and began to flip through the script.

ding dong~
Just then, a computer notification sounded. Teng Huatao clicked on it and saw that Wenzhang had posted a Weibo message in support of him:

Director Teng is a highly talented and outstanding director. He's not only a capable director, but also an accomplished producer. In contrast, some directors who transitioned from acting are somewhat arrogant and conceited, relying on women to climb the ladder and then flaunting everything as their achievement—how ridiculous! Without women behind you, you are nothing; without women behind you, you would have been blacklisted long ago!

The emblem was naturally referring to Jing Tian. If it weren't for his fear of Jing Tian, ​​Teng Huatao would have already used his father Teng Wenji's connections to wipe out Qi Hui, that clown.

Do you really think Qi Hui relied on himself?

He's just a pretty boy!

Wen Zhang is currently at the peak of his career. Last year, the TV series "Little Daddy," which he directed, wrote, and starred in, became a hit, taking his career to the next level.

Now, he has taken on Jiang Wen's new work, "One Step Away," becoming one of the lead actors in the film.

At the peak of his career, he naturally became arrogant and dared to say anything.

Let alone Qi Hui, he dares to bare his teeth at anyone, no matter how powerful they are.

Qi Hui was speechless upon reading these words. An actor crossing over to become a director and living off a woman?
Isn't the emblem a form of self-introduction?

This kind of behavior of looking down on others based on one's own past actions... doesn't it remind you a bit of Hou Liangping?
"Damn it, this emblem is practically asking for trouble!" Jing Tian looked at the refreshed Weibo post and was so angry she wanted to hit someone.

"Let me make a call!" Jing Tian said, taking out her phone, ready to teach Wen Zhang a lesson.

Seeing this, Qi Hui quickly stopped him, saying that Wen Zhang was just a skeleton in a tomb and not worth making such a fuss.

Of course, Qi Hui couldn't say that; he had to find another way to quell Jing Tian's anger.

"Why are you stopping me?" Jing Tian said angrily.

“He’s right,” Qi Hui said shamelessly. “I rose to power by relying on women. I’m just a good-for-nothing gigolo.”

As she spoke, she hugged Jing Tian and rubbed against her, looking like a rich woman who was hungry and needed food.

"Without you, I'm nothing," Qi Hui said with a smile, pressing his cheek against Jing Tian's chubby face.
"You...you bad guy..." Jing Tian was both amused and annoyed. She nudged Qi Hui and said seriously:
"Who said you're a kept man? You're a capable person!"

"Oh...how hard?" Qi Hui blurted out.

"..."

Jing Tian blushed and didn't want to say anything.

“I’m talking to you about serious matters, don’t be so frivolous!” Jing Tian pinched Qi Hui’s face and said seriously with a straight face.

However... they weren't using much force with their fingers.
"Hmm? You're the most important thing." Qi Hui chuckled and picked up Jing Tian, ​​carrying her into the house.

"Ouch~ Put me down... Please put me down~" Jing Tian struggled incessantly.

But her voice grew sweeter and sweeter, like she was being coquettish... no, she was being coquettish.
