Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 642 Nothing special, just trying to ride the coattails of "Operation Red Sea" (6th update)
"3, 2, 1, action!"

"..."

"Ji Jian, do you think someone might tip off Ding Yizhen?"

"That's possible...you suspect our own people?"

"..."

"How come Ding Yizhen answered the phone so quickly? I've been keeping an eye on him for days."

"You've been watching him for days? How come I didn't know? Did Hou Liangping send you to keep an eye on him?"

"Yes"

"Ha...it seems it's time for me, the chief prosecutor, to step down and make way for a more capable person." Li Jianyi chuckled meaningfully.

He plays the role of Chief Prosecutor Ji Changming.

Before this role, his most famous role should be Cao Zhengchun, the eunuch, in "The World's Finest".

The one who practices the Heavenly Gang Boy Skill

This veteran actor really did a great job playing the role of an eunuch.

He played an eunuch and delivered several memorable performances.

According to him, he had seen real eunuchs.

"Hey, who wants to step down? Who dares to make Inspector Ji step down?" Qi Hui's voice rang out off-camera.

Before anyone even appeared, the voice arrived: "Chen Hai, it's you?"

"How could I dare? The boss is just joking with me, isn't he?" Huang Junpeng chuckled.

"Alright, let's stop joking around," Qi Tongwei said with a smile, his playful expression slowly fading.

When the topic turned to maintaining public order and stability, his expression gradually became serious:

"I have good news for you, we've locked onto our target!"

"..."

This scene is the one where the public security and procuratorate work together to arrest Ding Yizhen.

Of course, before this, Qi Tongwei, played by Qi Hui, had already notified Gao Xiaoqin by phone.

Then, Gao Xiaoqin arranged for Ding Yizhen to flee to the United States.

This scene is actually a play within a play, with Qi Hui playing Qi Tongwei, who in turn plays a dedicated and hardworking director of the Public Security Bureau.

He appeared to be doing everything in his power to capture the suspect, but the suspect had already fled to the United States at his instruction.

This led to that famous scene: "How many times have I told you, use your job title when you're at work!"

Qi Hui, Li Jianyi, and Huang Junpeng are all seasoned actors who have been working on film sets for a long time.

This scene is a simple dialogue scene, so it's not particularly difficult.

With the three actors performing, the camera panned from one scene to another, and the director's calls echoed repeatedly.

In the directors' studio, the director of Group B took a big gulp of water, feeling a sense of exhilaration.

Directing this scene was so satisfying!
He hardly needs to do anything; all he needs to do is call "start" and "pause."

This is a rare occurrence in his career!
This feels amazing!
This is actually the source of Li Lu's confidence in speeding up the progress.

Every actor in the cast of "In the Name of the People" has excellent acting skills.

The director only needs to give a few simple suggestions, and the rest is up to the actors to improvise.

Looking at the director's delighted expression, Qi Hui couldn't help but think of Yang Tianbao from the "Mojin: The Lost Legend" crew.

To be honest, dealing with that kind of actor is really a headache.

Actors who can fully meet the director's requirements are extremely rare... well, actually, they're not rare at all!
The main problem is that actors with good acting skills are not very famous, so investors don't like them.

The kind of "traffic stars" that capital likes—those who can sing, dance, rap, and have a huge fan base.

These kinds of people can be mass-produced and their output can be consistent; all you need is a face.

As for actors with good acting skills... they are good, but it's too troublesome to cultivate them, and it takes too long to build their reputation.

They're not as good as internet celebrities; those are like leeks—once you harvest one crop, another grows.

Fans, however, are willing to pay extra, spontaneously forming fan groups to spend money on and support their idols.

In the past, capitalists wouldn't have even dared to think of such a thing as defying the natural order.

But now, with the development of fan culture, capital has found a new source of profit growth!
……

A few days later, Qi Hui finished filming his scenes at the Taizhou Public Security Command Center.

His scenes are rather scattered and not very coherent.

However, although the scenes featuring Qi Hui, the director, have been filmed, the scenes featuring Zhao Donglai, the bureau chief, have not yet been filmed.

Therefore, Ding Haifeng, like Qi Hui, had to continue staying up late at the police command center.

Jingle bell bell~
Just then, Qi Hui's phone rang.
When I picked it up, I found it was a call from Xiao Yang.

"Hey?"

"Boss, you're still filming in Jinling, right?" Xiao Yang's voice rang out.

"Hmm, is there something you need?" Qi Hui asked, somewhat puzzled. "Well," Xiao Yang said, "we've made some contact, and Sina Entertainment will be interviewing you in the next couple of days."

"You bought trending topics?" Qi Hui raised an eyebrow.

Promoting a movie is a normal practice.

But after seeing the competitors in the summer season, Qi Hui suddenly felt that there was no need to promote it so vigorously.

However, he felt that if he voiced his thoughts, he would probably be torn apart by Enlight Media, Berna, iQiyi, and Xiao Yang.

How could you be so careless, arrogant, and self-righteous?

So after thinking about it, Qi Hui decided not to express his opinion.

"Uh...yes." Xiao Yang answered somewhat nervously. She felt that her boss didn't seem to like buying trending topics.
Why? Doesn't he always trend on social media?

Xiao Yang was completely puzzled.

"Okay, let's do the interview." Qi Hui nodded. "Have them clarify the time so I can communicate with the director here."

"Uh... okay." Xiao Yang paused for a moment, feeling that his boss's voice seemed to carry a new air of authority.

He acts like a leader.

Back on the film set in Jinling

Qi Hui noticed that there were several new people in the crew.

He wasn't exactly a newcomer; during Qi Hui's time in Taizhou, the production team found new actors to film the scenes.

One of them, Qi Hui knew very well, was Tao Huimin!
The actress who plays his wife, Liang Lu.

Tao Huimin was born in the 1960s, making her a full twenty years older than Qi Hui.

She was a sophomore or junior in college, while Qi Hui had just been born.

Playing husband and wife? Actually, playing mother and son would be more suitable.

Qi Hui did indeed play a role, but not as a son, but as a son-in-law.

When they were filming "I Am a Special Forces Soldier", Xiao Zhuang's girlfriend was Xiao Ying.

Xiaoying's mother was played by Tao Huimin.

In the drama, Qi Hui and Tao Huimin had several scenes together.

"Hello, hello, Teacher Tao, it's been a long time," Qi Hui greeted.

"Haha, long time no see," Tao Huimin laughed. "We used to play father-in-law and son-in-law, but now we're playing husband and wife."

She used to think Qi Hui was quite interesting; he was tall, young, handsome, and steady.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Qi Hui rose to prominence like a rocket.

It reached a height that shocked her at an astonishing speed.

This year, they even pulled in the Navy, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the embassy, ​​and other departments to put on a big show with an investment of hundreds of millions of yuan.

The changes in just a few years are truly remarkable.

That's so unexpected.

When they were acting, she even gave Qi Hui a few pointers, but in the blink of an eye...

"Hahaha." Qi Hui also laughed heartily, "Yes, so Teacher Tao, please take good care of me in the future."

"It's clearly you who took care of me," Tao Huimin laughed, this kid is a sly one.

During the few days that Qi Hui was in Taizhou, she chatted with the actors in the crew and learned that Qi Hui was very capable.

In terms of performance, he is in no way inferior to actors like Zhang Zhijian and Wu Gang, who have spent most of their lives on stage.

Also, he's a major investor in this film!
As they were talking, Li Lu called out.

Qi Hui and Tao Huimin walked over and began preparing to act.

Like the drama in Taizhou Public Security Command Center, the scenes between Qi Hui and Tao Huimin are actually a bit fragmented.

It's disjointed and haphazard, with short segments and little dialogue.

Moreover, he speaks very aggressively and always gets into arguments.

In the play, Qi Tongwei and Liang Lu rarely spoke to each other politely.

It was only at Gao Yuliang's home, when they were performing as a loving couple, that they were described as "mutually devoted and exceptionally affectionate."

However, if you look closely, that scene still seems somewhat fake.

A few days later

People from Sina called to say they had arrived and wanted to schedule an interview with Qi Hui.

Immediately, Qi Hui sought out Li Lu to discuss the matter.

Upon hearing this, Li Lu immediately got excited and wanted to arrange the interview on the film set.

Nothing else, just want to ride the wave of popularity!

Qi Hui: “…”

You are so flirty...
