Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 443 The acting was going so well, why the sudden change of heart? (3rd update)
"Haha...haha..." Chen Guofu chuckled dryly, remaining silent in the face of Qi Hui's mockery.
A closer look at Huayi's actions reveals quite a lot.

They entered the fray when the enemy was completely overwhelmed.
The least pressure, the easiest to fight.
Moreover, this timing is quite intriguing. What if Qi Hui hadn't completely suppressed his opponent?

Will Hua Yi continue to observe and watch as Qi Hui and the public intellectuals continue their battle?
Probably!

They always prefer to fight when they have the upper hand.
However, there are also good things.

Qi Hui's reputation soared after this incident, and his starring role in "Mojin: The Lost Legend" garnered significant attention and became a hit even before its release.
Furthermore, Qi Hui is no longer needed; Hua Yi will take over the battle.
What remains is a battle of wits between Huayi Brothers and public intellectuals... and of course, the UNIDO behind them.
As long as no unsportsmanlike actions are taken, victory is almost guaranteed.
After all, the Simplified Chinese internet is our own territory, and there is an indescribable, majestic, and vast power suppressing it!
Seeing Chen Guofu's embarrassed expression, Qi Hui shrugged, not paying much attention.
"Alright, everyone to your positions!" Guo Fan clapped his hands and shouted through a megaphone.

There are one or two more scenes left, and then we'll finish filming the scenes in Los Angeles.
The scenes featuring Xia Yu and Huang Bo at the bar, and the scenes of the three tomb raiders distributing their loot, were also filmed.

All that's missing is one or two dramatic scenes between Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang.
He could at least argue that the zombies had their own national circumstances, but to refuse to provide disaster relief and show such disregard for human life... he couldn't like this country at all.

I just want to finish filming as soon as possible, wrap up my work, and go home!

The other members of the crew also had similar ideas.

The wildfire has been burning for almost a week or two, and the childish firefighting efforts have made the entire team feel extremely uncomfortable.

They were afraid that the fire would spread to Los Angeles and affect them.
With such outrageous firefighting efforts, it wouldn't be impossible for the fire to spread into the city.

Thus, the enthusiasm of the entire crew was ignited.

Everyone was like they were on steroids, suppressing their negative emotions and giving themselves a boost.
I just wanted to finish filming quickly and leave as soon as possible!

……

The messy warehouse set

A TV with a slapstick design, a bulky VCR, various bottles of liquor, leftover food scraps, and furniture scattered haphazardly.

Guo Fan looked at the entire team, who were all ready, and nodded in satisfaction: "Good! Scene 23, First Shot, First Take of Mojin: The Lost Legend"

"3, 2, 1, action!"

Snapped!
The clapperboard is down, let's start recording!
Qi Hui, dressed in a blue hoodie, stood before the portrait of the patriarch, slowly poured himself a glass of wine, and offered it to the patriarch.

"Twenty years have passed, and Old Wang has always been unwilling to bring this up..." Qi Hui said slowly, his tone tinged with a mix of emotion and melancholy.

As he spoke, he raised his cup, tilted it, and slowly poured the wine in front of the patriarch.

It appears to be paying homage to the ancestral master, but in reality, it's paying respect to Ding Sitian.
"The spider lilies we saw back then were said to be the symbol of Princess Aogu of the Khitan during the Northern Song Dynasty. I never expected them to reappear..."

Qi Hui slowly recited his lines; this part was meant to reveal information to the audience, flesh out the plot, and lay the groundwork for later events.

Jing Tian, ​​who plays Shirley Yang, raised a question, since in Hu Bayi's memory just now, the sacrifice of his comrades who were sent to the countryside was due to the resurrection of Japanese mummies.

The idea of ​​mummies coming back to life is a complete violation of the laws of physics!

This has transformed from the real world into a fantasy world of ghosts, monsters, and immortal cultivation.

It's obviously impossible.
If the Japanese had this ability, would they need to enjoy the Second Earth?

Wouldn't it be better to just let the mummified corpses cross the Pacific and conquer the Americans?
This also serves as a springboard for speculation about the illusionary realms, preparing for the later illusionary battle.

“As you know, what a person sees is not determined by their eyes, but by their brain,” Jing Tian, ​​playing Shirley Yang, said slowly.

"I understand what you mean." Qi Hui smiled gently and looked at Jing Tian.

"I see that you are beautiful and have a stunning appearance, but that doesn't mean you are like that. Rather, I believe from the bottom of my heart that you are beautiful and have a stunning appearance."

Jing Tian subconsciously avoided Qi Hui's gaze, and her originally dashing and heroic demeanor instantly transformed into a charming and sweet allure.

Off-camera, the photographers and lighting technicians took a deep breath, some gritting their teeth.

They were acting perfectly fine, why did they suddenly start showing off their love?
In the video, Jing Tian used a smile to hide her shyness. After a brief moment of embarrassment, she reverted to her poised and confident self, Shirley Yang, and said:
What do you want to do?

Off-site
"..."

Everyone fell silent. Showing affection was one thing, but why did they have to start making suggestive remarks?

Guo Fan grinned. How come he hadn't noticed how ambiguous the line was before?

However, Hu Bayi didn't have that idea.
His plan was to go back to find Old Wang, go down into the tomb together, and investigate the details of what happened back then.

However, Shirley Young was naturally unwilling.

Isn't it obvious that he hasn't gotten over his first love?

You've come all the way to America with me, and you're still thinking about your first love? What does that mean?
"Great, pass!" Guo Fan shouted, looking at the monitor, and breathed a sigh of relief.
After a few more shots, we'll be completely done filming.

I don't want to come to America at all, it's the worst kind of place I've ever been!

……

Packing up, completing paperwork, and all the follow-up tasks.
Under the direction of Chen Guofu and Guo Fan, all the finishing touches were carried out in an orderly manner.
The crew members also boarded planes in batches to return to China.

Finally, it's fucking done!

Two days later, Qi Hui, Jing Tian, ​​and Guo Fan also boarded a plane and slowly took off.

Looking down at the forest fire, which had spread further and intensified, Qi Hui smiled wryly.

As expected of America, they've always been utterly incompetent when it comes to doing things haphazardly.
Jing Tian shook her head: "I used to think this place was better than our country..."

At this point, she took a deep breath, a feeling of being deceived and anger welling up inside her.
Seeing Jing Tian's anger, Qi Hui quickly comforted her, "Why get angry with someone like that?"
However, it is not entirely without factual basis.

Qi Hui remembers a short essay about Japanese water pipes.

The text above states that Japanese water pipes are of very high quality; they are used for water supply in ordinary times, but can also be used as gun barrels in emergencies.

At first, Qi Hui, like Jing Tian, ​​thought these short essays were baseless and fabricated.

But later... Qi Hui had to admit that he was sometimes a bit short-sighted.

This is actually real?!?

Online

The debate between the producers of "Mojin: The Lost Legend" and public intellectuals continues.
Initially, Huayi Brothers and several film and television companies, having prepared online trolls in advance and with their opponents being forced into retreat by Qi Hui, achieved significant results.

Gao Xiaosong and those few well-known public intellectuals couldn't utter a single useful word.

They can only talk about other things and occasionally reply with a few meaningless words.

When faced with various pointed questions and netizens dredging up old grievances, public intellectuals either avoid the topic or pretend to be deaf and dumb.

But soon, the situation changed.

Suddenly, a bunch of netizens appeared out of nowhere and started refuting each viewpoint, delving into the specifics of the United States, and then veerging onto issues like environmental protection and animal welfare.

Then they started changing the subject, digging up all sorts of entertainment news, basically trying every possible way to suppress the matter.

They also used this opportunity to hype up "Chronicles of the Ghostly Tribe," pushing it to the forefront to compete with "Mojin: The Lost Legend."
Whether Hua Yi was unaware of the situation or simply chose to ignore it, they followed this line of thought, using "Mojin: The Lost Legend" and "Chronicles of the Ghostly Tribe" for hype.

The two films were considered equally brilliant and comparable in the media.
In this situation, the public intellectuals, in their sorry state, gradually fell out of control.
Despite their infamy, they managed to survive and still have a chance to rebuild their lives.
Qi Hui watched all this and couldn't help but curl his lip. The weakness and profit-seeking nature of capital...
