Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 470 Seeking Heaven's Nourishing Life... Wu Jing stars in "The Vanished She".

Beijing, Yixin Film and Television

Qi Hui and the production manager of the film crew are developing a shooting plan.
The production manager glanced at the goji berry tea on the table, but didn't dare to ask any more questions, and could only continue working on the documents on the computer.

The main filming locations for "The Vanished She" are Qingshui Bay in Lingshui, Hainan Province; Shenzhou Peninsula in Wanning, Hainan Province; Nanyang Street in Baoting, Hainan Province; and some scenes in Sanya.

The most troublesome, time-consuming, and expensive part of filming a movie is location hopping.

For the film crew, the ideal scenario is to film one scene first before moving on to another.

However... it's difficult to achieve because many factors can affect the filming schedule, such as the actors' availability.
For example, Jing Tian is currently filming "Nirvana in Fire," so she definitely can't film any more of her shows now.
We can only film Chen Duling, Gao Yuanyuan, and the other actors' scenes first.
Thinking of this, Qi Hui suddenly paused, realizing that there was still one actor to be cast for the police officer role!
That's Officer Zheng, the policeman who handled the case of the protagonist He Fei and his wife.
It had already been booked; it was booked with Lao Ling.
But the more Qi Hui thought about it, the more inappropriate it seemed.

This policeman has a sinister side in the film; he appears to be a normal cop at first, but his true colors are later revealed.

Evil, murder, ferocity, villainous face... Even though it's a play within a play, it still needs to portray that evil side!
Therefore, Lao Ling is not very suitable for this role.
Qi Hui frowned, pondering incessantly who would be most suitable for this role.

After a moment's thought, Qi Hui finally chose one person: Tian Yangsheng... no, it's Wu Jing!
In this drama, he plays He Fei, a gambler and an ordinary person, not a special forces soldier.
To look weak and incompetent

Therefore, a powerful figure is needed to suppress him.
Otherwise, when the audience sees Qi Hui being tricked by the fake Li Muzi, their first reaction will be, "Why doesn't he kill this woman?"

What? You're saying this woman has accomplices?
That's perfect, let's blow them all up!
Send them all to the Western Paradise!

"..."

If the audience actually has that kind of thought, then this movie is doomed!

Wu Jing's character, the police officer, is the film's fighting force, completely capable of suppressing the gambling addict.

Let everyone, both on and off screen, know that He Fei is not Leng Feng, not Zhuang Yan, not Jiang Xiaoyu, but a despicable gambling dog who is utterly useless!

Wu Jing happens to play a lot of villainous roles, so she has a lot of experience in that area.

Especially Tian Yangsheng, dressed in a blue police uniform, caused a ruckus at the police station and completely overwhelmed Xie Tingfeng and his two colleagues.
If it weren't for Nicholas Tse's invincible character, who was practically unkillable, it would be hard to say who would have had the last laugh in "Men's True Colors"!

Looking back now, Nicholas Tse was really chubby!
Despite enduring so many vicious attacks, he was still able to fight and jump as if nothing had happened.

It's outrageous!
"Luckily, I didn't let Lao Ling know..." Qi Hui muttered to himself, feeling a sense of relief.

If we've already discussed this with Lao Ling, then it'll be a bit more complicated to handle.

Thinking this, Qi Hui dialed Wu Jing's number.

Upon hearing Qi Hui's words, Wu Jing was initially taken aback, but then became interested.
That sounds great... Sure!

This is a great role, and he was happy to take it.

The only thing that's upsetting is that it sounds like this character has very few scenes.

It feels like a double-flower red stick under the female character's command.
……

That day, Qi Hui was in his office working on filming plans and dealing with a host of troublesome issues.
Making a film is like this; the director has so many things to consider.

From preparation to filming, from filming to post-production, from post-production to promotion, and finally to release.

He had to handle a multitude of matters.
Even if some matters are handled by subordinates, they still need to be reviewed accordingly.

Jingle bell bell~
Just then, the telephone on the table rang.
Qi Hui answered instinctively: "Hello?"

"Boss," came Xiao Yang's voice from the microphone, "Yang Mi wants to see you."

"Okay, tell him to wait for me... Hmm? Who?"

Qi Hui suddenly snapped back to his senses, his gaze instantly sharpening.

"Yang Mi," Xiao Yang replied, her voice tinged with a hint of doubt. "You seem so surprised… Oh, I almost forgot about what happened during the filming of 'Love is Not Blind'."
As Xiao Yang's memories flooded back, he immediately understood.
"Take her to the reception room, and you come along too!" Qi Hui said in a deep voice, unusually using a commanding tone.
"Yes!" Xiao Yang replied immediately, not daring to be negligent.

There are surveillance cameras in the reception room; it has floor-to-ceiling windows.

Moreover, the walls are made of glass. Apart from two load-bearing walls, the remaining two walls are completely transparent, allowing a clear view inside. In fact, not only the reception room, but even his office has glass windows and glass walls.

However, his office wasn't monitored, so for safety reasons, he would naturally go to the reception room.

Although the possibility of an accident is very small, it's better to be prepared!
After hanging up the phone, Qi Hui put on a shirt, vest, and suit jacket, and casually tied a Seven Wolves belt around his waist.
The buttons are fastened tightly!
Just in case of unforeseen circumstances!

Looking at himself in a suit and tie in the mirror, Qi Hui curled his lip. He hadn't even dressed this formally for his blind date.
There was nothing we could do; Jing Tian wasn't there.
Otherwise, she could have handled it herself.

After donning the armor of a modern man, Qi Hui slowly made his way to the reception room.
……

living room

Yang Mi looked at the bright and airy surroundings, glanced at the security camera, and then at the chubby little girl beside her… For some reason, she felt a strange sense of malice.
"Why not go to Qi Hui's office?" Yang Mi asked.

She and Qi Hui were college classmates and had a good relationship. There was no need for them to act so distant.

"Visitors all discuss business here," Xiao Yang said with an unchanged smile. "Last time, Mr. Wang from Huayi discussed 'The Lost Tomb' with our chairman right here."

"Also, Mr. Kong, Mr. Li, and Mr. Sun from Daylight Entertainment were here discussing 'Nirvana in Fire' and 'Battle of Changsha'."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Yang Mi's attention was immediately diverted.

"Midday sunlight?"

"Yes," Xiao Yang said with a smile.

"I heard Qi Hui is the chairman?" Yang Mi asked. Not many people actually knew this; she had only found out after making inquiries from various sources.

"This...I'm not really sure." A look of helplessness crossed Xiao Yang's face, as if he were being undervalued.
"Yixin and Daylight Entertainment are two different companies."

"Hahaha... Boss Yang, it's been a long time!" Before the words were finished, Qi Hui's hearty laughter suddenly rang out.
Before seeing the person, one hears their voice.

Yang Mi's eyes twitched slightly; she felt something was off.

"Qi Hui, it's been a long time." Yang Mi smiled, her demeanor dignified and reserved.

She was wearing a light green V-neck short-sleeved top and a white fitted long skirt.

Elegant demeanor, sophisticated and appropriate attire

This was completely different from the selfies she had previously sent to Qi Hui.

It's quite novel to look at it like this out of the blue.
The main problem is that Qi Hui barely pays any attention to Yang Mi; he doesn't even follow her on Weibo.
Unfortunately, Yang Mi still treats Weibo like her personal WeChat Moments, frequently posting inspirational quotes and melodramatic whining.

Therefore, Qi Hui didn't bother to pay attention.
"I heard your drama 'My Sunshine' is about to be released?" Qi Hui asked preemptively.

Not a TV series, but a movie.
I vaguely remember the male lead being Huang Xiaoming, um... I wonder if he's greasy or not.

Huang Xiaoming is always in a state of alternation between being greasy and not greasy. Sometimes he performs quite well, but other times... well, it's hard to describe!

"The promotion has already started." Yang Mi frowned, somewhat worried, "but judging from the results, it's not very good."

The main reason is that "Wolf Warrior" is too strong; it has generated countless discussions on Weibo and other major online platforms.
Even the media is reporting on it like crazy.

Entertainment media have always been quick to praise newcomers while ignoring the old ones, reporting on whatever is trending.

Wolf Warrior is so popular right now, of course there's a lot of reporting on it!
When will it be released?

"The end of the month." Yang Mi shrugged. She was aiming for the May Day holiday release schedule, which should allow her to avoid the release of *Wolf Warrior*.

"Please have a seat," Qi Hui said with a smile. Xiao Yang had already prepared the tea.
"What do you want?" Qi Hui got straight to the point; he needed to get Yang Mi away as soon as possible.
