The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Is Chapter 469 also for this reason?

"Frankly speaking, Ms. Li, I'm not surprised, but I'm somewhat disappointed." Xu Jiuyang sighed as he looked at Li Fuzhen in front of him. "I thought you wouldn't come to see me until tomorrow at the earliest."

“Mr. Xu, as Yunxin’s acknowledged boyfriend, you spoke rudely to her sister’s husband. Isn’t that extremely impolite?” Lee Boo-jin said bluntly.

"Really?" Xu Jiuyang countered, "Is this an insult or the truth?"

He paused here, his expression becoming a half-smile: "Or perhaps you've exposed some people's unethical methods?"

Lee Boo-jin's expression stiffened for a moment, but she still maintained her composure: "Even so, you could have brought it up with me or Yoon-hyung after you refused, instead of being so... intense!"

"I'm sorry, Ms. Lee Boo-jin, but my experience tells me that if you don't retaliate with the strongest measures against someone like him, he will only keep coming back to pester you shamelessly," Xu Jiuyang said bluntly.

Before Lee Boo-jin could speak, he slammed his hand on the wall, pressing down on her and looking down at her: "I don't know what you valued in him back then, Ms. Lee, but I know he can't support himself now, and the longer it goes on, the more he will drag you down. Even if you have children in the future, it won't change anything."

A flash of anger crossed Lee Boo-jin's face, then her gaze sharpened: "What, Mr. Xu, are you now not only obsessed with instructing Yun-hsin, but also want to instruct me?"

“Obviously, the guidance Miss Li sees is different from the guidance I see,” Xu Jiuyang chuckled. “It’s not surprising, after all, she is the eldest princess of Samsung. It’s already quite difficult for her to look down on those below her.”

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Xu, I didn't tell you how many times I bowed my head!" Lee Boo-jin said sarcastically.

“It’s alright, you can report it now.” Xu Jiuyang raised an eyebrow and said, “Human nature cannot be faked. No matter how much you compromise now, Miss Li, when you decide to give him up, you will not hesitate for a moment.”

"I think I heard a charlatan preaching." Lee Boo-jin sneered, and she was becoming more and more like the person someone remembered after the divorce, especially her cold demeanor.

So Xu Jiuyang pinched her chin: "I'm just telling the truth."

Then he froze, and Lee Boo-jin froze too. The two stared at each other, wide-eyed, until... until someone pinched that smooth chin and shook it a couple more times before letting go.

"Damn it!" Xu Jiuyang cursed inwardly, realizing what was happening, and immediately tried to explain, "Um... I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lee Boo-jin shoved him away and stormed off.

Xu Jiuyang stood there for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief. He'd been careless; he hadn't dodged... Ugh, I knew it. If you indulge in picking flowers for too long, this kind of thing will happen... Luckily, I'm leaving the day after tomorrow...

Nevertheless, upon returning to his bedroom and seeing Li Yunxin, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Especially after chatting for a couple of minutes, Li Yunxin mentioned that she had just met her sister: "She seemed very unhappy. I don't know if that girl exaggerated something she said."

Xu Jiuyang considered it for a moment and decided to tell the truth—of course, a small mistake could be ignored.

"Hmm, I roughly understand what my sister is thinking," Li Yunxin said after listening.

"What are you thinking about?" Xu Jiuyang asked curiously.

“She’s envious of me.” A hint of smugness flashed between Lee Yoon-hyung’s eyebrows. “Although my sister has never said it, I can still read from those subtle expressions that she also wants to have someone like Oppa who can fully support her.”

"I see..." Xu Jiuyang chuckled, a little smug, then froze.

So, this is one of the reasons why Lee Boo-jin wasn't angry before, but just pushed me away and ran away?
He rolled his eyes, quickly shook his head, and tried to banish the thoughts from his mind, but he didn't notice that Lee Yoon-hyung, with her back to him, had a slight smile playing on her lips. Nothing much happened over the next two days. Both Im Woo-jae and Lee Boo-jin acted as if that night had never happened and continued to play the part of a harmonious couple.

Xu Jiuyang thus successfully left South Korea.

At this time, "A World Without Thieves" had already been released and performed quite well. Fan Bingbing had also gained a lot of movie fans with "The Dark Side" and "Falling", and they were willing to buy tickets to support her.

Besides, the popularity of national idols is still very high. Even if the conversion rate is not high, the number of fans who go to the cinema is still amazing.

"A World Without Thieves" is different from "The Dark Side" and "Falling". Fan Xiaoyanzi played a supporting role in "The Dark Side", while in "Falling", although she played the female lead, her role was not very big.

More importantly, both of these films are art-house films, while audiences at this stage prefer to see commercial films.

In fact, before Xu Jiuyang's rebirth, mainland audiences were more eager for commercial films, especially good ones; otherwise, why would "Ne Zha 2" have grossed over 10 billion yuan at the box office?

pity……

In short, at this point in time, Feng Xiaogang's comedies still have a group of fans, and the new version of "A World Without Thieves" is also quite good, not inferior to the version that someone remembers, and all the famous scenes that should be there have been retained.

They didn't miss a single thing, such as "Uncle Li is peeling his own eggs," "IC, IP, IQ cards, tell me all the passwords," and "Be serious, we're robbing someone."

Moreover, Wang Li's role is also very prominent, almost the center of the story. After all, Andy Lau went to play the role of the arrogant king in Zhang Yimou's movie, which is read as "Reign of Assassins" but written as "House of Flying Daggers". Deng Chao could not suppress her.

Moreover, the scene where he asks the police to help cover it up in order to fulfill Sha Gen's dream of a world without thieves, and then bids farewell to Sha Gen, with a smile mixed with a hint of tears about to fall, is particularly moving.

Therefore, although "A World Without Thieves" did not perform as well at the box office as "Red Cliff", "House of Flying Daggers" and "Kung Fu", it received unexpectedly good reviews, and Fan Bingbing's popularity also soared as a result.

But she herself didn't care much.

"Oh, so what? Female celebrities can't carry the box office." That's what Fan Bingbing said.

“But it’s a foregone conclusion that ‘A World Without Thieves’ will gross over 100 million yuan.” Xu Jiuyang chuckled.

“That’s thanks to the director and screenwriter. I only played a small role and wasn’t irreplaceable.” Fan Bingbing shrugged, then asked in return, “Would you consider ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ to be Zhang Ziyi’s achievement?”

Xu Jiuyang was taken aback. What she said was true. Despite being known as "International Zhang," Zhang Ziyi actually didn't have many films that could carry the box office.

The best-performing films all relied on the director, the male actors, and the anthology format. Only "Sophie's Revenge" could be considered a decent example, but even that relied on off-screen feuds.

Even so, she can still continue to make movies, continue to star in big productions, and continue to be hailed as an international star, unlike in Hollywood where she basically disappears after making a few bad movies. This gives you an idea of ​​how rotten the mainland entertainment industry is.

"So that's what you're after." Xu Jiuyang pointed to the big screen over there.

They are currently in Angela's private cinema, where they have just watched "Daughter Trapped in Time," a film that is almost finished and looks quite good.
