Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 554 No one can leave the movie theater laughing.

Just as Qi Hui was waiting for things to develop, the film market during the National Day holiday was incredibly hot.

Especially in Haidian District, a hub for universities, there are plenty of energetic college students and couples.

In a movie theater, Liu Yifei sat in a corner early in the morning, wearing a hat and covering her face, scrolling through her phone while waiting for the movie to start.

That night, she felt she hadn't had enough of "The Vanished Woman" and planned to watch it a second time.

buzz~
Liu Yifei's phone vibrated; another notification had arrived. She pulled down the notification bar and, sure enough, it was another notification from Douban.

She immediately opened the notification and found that her comment had received countless replies.
"I just finished watching the movie, and what the original poster said is right; it can indeed enhance the relationship between men and women."

"The best movie of the year, I've watched it over and over again, I've rewatched it countless times!"

"So you were the one who said this movie was a sweet love story?!"

"You've really done all sorts of bad things!"

"Damn it, you tricked us into coming in to kill us, didn't you?"

"Those who have seen it, keep it to yourselves! Don't tell the truth! We can't be the only ones who have seen it suffering!"

"Those of you upstairs, delete this quickly. We should share the good times and the bad."

"Bullshit! What do you mean by 'don't speak the truth'? We're speaking the truth!"

"Exactly! Tell me, isn't this movie the best of the year? Tell me, can this movie enhance relationships between men and women?"

"..."

Liu Yifei watched with a beaming smile, thoroughly amused.

Indeed, people never feel tired when they are doing bad things.

It's amazing how many words I can write and how many positive reviews I can give.

Aside from its own commentary, another popular comment under "The Vanished She" is:

[A very good movie, it's a pity it was released at the wrong time. It would have been better if it had been released on Valentine's Day or Qixi Festival.]

Liu Yifei: "..."

The person who posted this comment is even worse than me!
At this time, more and more people entered the theater, men and women holding hands, arm in arm, walking in with an extremely affectionate demeanor.

"Why did you choose a suspense movie? It's scary!" A cute girl with a round face complained, holding her boyfriend's hand.

It was supposed to be a complaint, but her voice was sweet and her tone was cloying, more like she was being coquettish.

"Didn't you say that 'Nirvana in Fire' lacked something because it only had Jing Tian and not Qi Hui?" the boy laughed.
"The Disappearing Woman happens to have Qi Hui and Jing Tian in it. After you finish watching it, I'll go shopping with you."

"I don't want to go shopping with you~"

"It'll only be a little over an hour. We'll go get something good to eat after we finish watching," the boy coaxed.

After a big meal, you can go book a room and get some rest!
He's got everything ready to stop the elves!
"I don't want~"

"Be good, listen to me. Domestic suspense films aren't scary at all. If they were, we'd just leave."

"Don't~"

Amidst their playful bickering, the young couple had already taken their seats and were enthusiastically eating popcorn and cola.

People around the couple didn't react much; after all, who doesn't have a girlfriend/boyfriend?

We've seen this so many times in college, everyone's used to it.

Liu Yifei watched the young couple take their seats, her eyes filled with pity.

I hope everything will be alright after watching the movie.

I hope that all the couples in the theater can remain as normal as ever.

Soon, the dragon emblem lit up, and the movie began.

Liu Yifei no longer watches movies; instead, she watches the people watching movies.

Just like the poem says, you stand on the bridge admiring the scenery, while the person admiring the scenery is admiring you.

However, as the movie progressed, the smiles on the faces of the young couples gradually faded.

Couples who were once holding hands and leaning on each other's shoulders, so intimate, gradually drifted apart.

Everyone sits in their own place and watches their own show!
It must be said that this movie is really good. In the early part, Qi Hui's character He Fei is helpless and pitiful, which makes people feel sorry for him.

In the middle of the story, He Fei's efforts to fight against the villainous group are thrilling and exciting.

However, later on, He Fei, played by Qi Hui, completely revealed his true colors.

This gambling addict did not repent and remained as heavily in debt as before.

His reason for searching for his wife and fighting against the villainous group was to prove that his wife was missing.

The goal is to get the police to open a case!
Once the case is filed and it is proven that his wife is missing, then He Fei, as her spouse, and given that his wife's parents are deceased and she has no relatives, will be the heir to the property. "Hahahaha..." On the big screen, Qi Hui, who plays He Fei, collapses and laughs maniacally.

All his hopes were extinguished by the fake Li Muzi and the fake policeman, and he was utterly desperate.

The audience in the theater erupted in shock as they watched Qi Hui, who was acting erratically and recklessly.

When the image of the deceased Li Muzi and the underwater starry sky appeared, the audience fell silent once again.

As He Fei was slowly strangled to death, a cheer of delight rang out in the theater.

But when everything came to an end, what shocked the audience the most was Li Muzi's despair.

She used the way he taught her to ask for help, but he left without hesitation.

He killed his wife and children with his own hands.

When the dazzling underwater starry sky accompanied Jing Tian's singing, the audience felt their scalps tingle and remained speechless.

The lights came on in the theater, and the couple who had been all smiles and laughing at the beginning of the movie were gone.
Instead, there were men and women with solemn expressions.

Beneath the veil, Liu Yifei gave a wry smile. Sure enough, no one could leave the movie theater with a smile.

"How about I go shopping with you in a bit?"

"No need, I'm not in the mood..."

"Shall we grab a meal together?"

"No, I can't eat."

"Then let's..."

"I'm going back to my dorm now."

The young couple who had been so inseparable left the movie theater one after the other.

Liu Yifei pursed her lips, suppressing a smile, and returned to her car.

"Keep an eye on Qi Hui's movements for me," she messaged her agent.

Qi Hui is particularly good at photographing women, whether it's Gao Yuanyuan's gentleness and ruthlessness, Jing Tian's heroic spirit, Lin Xia's charm, or Chen Duling's pure and moving beauty like a white moonlight... If you could collaborate with Qi Hui, the results would be quite good.

Standing by the roadside, watching his girlfriend leave, the man sighed to the heavens, utterly dejected.

He had meticulously planned everything: watching a movie, shopping, and booking a hotel room.

As a result, everything was gone!

The White Spirit is ready!
She immediately returned to her dorm and started complaining online: "Damn it, after watching this movie, my sweet vacation is ruined!"

"Haha, brothers, come quick! Another victim!"

"happy!"

"Brother, let me teach you: after you see it, don't say anything. Keep it to yourself and wait until other people talk about it before you laugh at them!"

"..."

Not everyone can hold it in; many people have started to confide in others and share their opinions on the film online.

Besides criticizing the film for being inhumane, netizens also displayed their traditional talent: political commentary!

This thing has arrived too.

"After watching this movie, I've summarized two life-saving tips: 1. Stay away from gambling and drugs; 2. Never travel abroad, especially to Southeast Asia, such as Thailand!"

"That's absolutely right! A wise person avoids dangerous situations. I will never go abroad again, especially not to Thailand!"

"Those who want to travel to Southeast Asia should first consider how they compare to Wu Jing. Look how miserable he was in 'SPL 2: A Time for Consequences'!"

"Damn, I wouldn't have remembered if you hadn't told me!"

"I remember now, the movie from a few months ago, damn, it was terrifying!"

"Human trafficking, organ trafficking, rampant illegal drugs... why would anyone want to travel to such places?"

"Exactly, China has 960 million square kilometers, can't it even fit your hundred-odd pounds of flesh?"

"Let me explain why Thailand is the most chaotic country in Southeast Asia. You might not know this, but Thailand is one of the Axis powers..."

"..."

Soon, the topic gained traction, and the idea of ​​not traveling abroad became one of the trending searches.

This prompted the country's embassy to take action, immediately posting numerous tourism tweets to promote their tourist attractions.

Tourism is one of the pillars of their economy.

Meanwhile, Bernard astutely recognized this opportunity: if used to promote "Operation Mekong"...
