This director lacks vision.

Chapter 425 Character Design Card

Liu Yifei and Chen Duling huddled together, panting, exchanging breaths.

Shu Chang's rosy cheeks made her look even cuter.

Seeing this, Jiang Yifeng reached out and rubbed it a few times. It was plump and elastic, and felt really good.

Shu Chang's face was pinched, and she could only mumble, "You really do have a little quirk; you like women who are a little chubby."

Jiang Yifeng patted Shu Chang's head and said with a smile, "I just like pretty women. It doesn't matter if they're a little chubby or a little thin, as long as they're within a normal range."

"Mainly because you're so cute, so round and chubby, it's impossible not to love you."

After taking the beauty potion, Shu Chang began to develop a youthful appearance with a large penis.

Besides being large, a youthful appearance is also a major trend.

Her appearance has changed somewhat similarly to Liu Yifei's; she has gained a bit of baby fat on her face, making her look adorable.

Human weight naturally fluctuates.

Shu Chang is 156 cm tall and now weighs 97 catties, still incredibly cute.

It even feels better to rub than before.

In particular, Shu Chang is quite playful. If Jiang Yifeng rubs her a few more times, she will hiss at him like a kitten; occasionally, she will wiggle her fair little feet to show that she is enjoying being rubbed.

This dynamic feedback is the essence.

Liu Yifei, having recovered her composure, said smugly to Jiang Yifeng, "Are you satisfied tonight? Did I give Dong Lili any preferential treatment during her audition?"

Tianxian is so direct, and Jiang Yifeng is also very frank: "There will be no preferential treatment. Let me put it this way, you, Jing Tian, ​​and Nazha, your chances of playing Dong Lili are not high."

Liu Yifei asked, unconvinced, "Why?"

"You three are too beautiful in appearance, you don't have the temperament of an ordinary person at all. Unless the three of you are willing to accept training and live in the village or factory area for a year or two, maybe you can give it a try."

But there's absolutely no need to do that; why make things difficult for yourself when you already have a good life?

An actor's greatest work is their own face; no actor can break through their own appearance to infinitely expand and create a character.

Even the multifaceted Tony Leung Ka-fai and the solidly nuanced Wang Baoqiang are the same.

Even if you cast Tony Leung Ka-fai as the God of Gamblers, he would never be as suitable as Chow Yun-fat.

This is not because Tony Leung Ka-fai's acting skills are inferior to Chow Yun-fat's, but rather due to the limitations imposed by the differences between the actor's image and the script character.

Dong Lili is a character who works as an ordinary female worker in a textile factory in the 80s.

Judging from this single description, this character seems completely unrelated to Liu Yifei, Jing Tian, ​​and Nazha.

Jiang Yifeng is currently quite optimistic about Fan Bingbing and Yang Caiyu, and Tong Liya is also worth a try.

Seeing Jiang Yifeng say that, Liu Yifei pouted and remained silent.

After all, Jiang Yifeng had complimented her on her beauty.

Just as Shu Chang was about to speak, Jiang Yifeng said, "You guys chat first, I'm going to the restroom."

After arriving at the restroom, Jiang Yifeng carefully examined the system notification he had just received.

[Work: Pacific Rim: Survival of the Fittest]

Quality: 5 stars. A well-made sci-fi blockbuster with a tight pace and plenty of exciting moments. The rich imagination combined with top-notch film technology showcases the extraordinary charm of top-notch special effects.

In addition, the film excels in many aspects, including story structure, monster models, and soundtrack, making it an excellent science fiction film overall.

Film's box office performance: 5 stars. The film grossed 40.7 billion yuan in the Chinese mainland market alone, setting a new box office record.

The film grossed 6.87 million US dollars in North America, setting a new record for the highest-grossing Chinese film in North America and ranking among the top ten highest-grossing films in North American history.

The film grossed a total of US$22.89 billion worldwide, ranking second in the all-time global box office, with an overall return of nearly 3 times and an absolute return of over US$6 million.

Impact of the work: 5 stars. It created a global viewing frenzy, not only breaking multiple box office records, but also officially launching the Pacific Rim IP to the world, laying a solid and profound foundation for the sale of peripheral products and the promotion of related cultural trends.

Overall rating: 5 stars, rewarding 1 excellent draw chance / 3 good draw chances / 9 ordinary draw chances.

Shall we start the prize draw now?

Because of its consistently strong box office performance, Pacific Rim has had its screenings extended both domestically and internationally.

Today, the screenings in major countries and regions have ended, and the system's rewards have arrived.

Pacific Rim grossed US$22.89 billion, surpassing Titanic to become the second highest-grossing film in global film history.

This figure is higher than the institutions predicted, partly because Pacific Rim has received very good reviews and its box office performance is strong, and partly because of exchange rate factors.

The past two years have seen the Chinese Yuan appreciate, with the current exchange rate reaching 6.1.

If box office revenue is calculated in US dollars, then the box office revenue in the Chinese market is even more "valuable".

Jiang Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the five-star rating given by the system.

In his expectations, Pacific Rim should receive a five-star rating.

After all, he spent the most time preparing for and filming this movie, and also did a lot of work in post-production.

Furthermore, the Pacific Rim TV series has a 4-star rating, and the movie has corrected the shortcomings of the TV series.

Therefore, the movie should rightfully receive a five-star rating.

However, Jiang Yifeng was still a little unsure and somewhat apprehensive before the system reward was announced.

After all, this system has a preference for realistic films and television works, and purely entertainment-oriented commercial films always struggle to get 5 stars.

Pacific Rim: Survival of the Fittest is Jiang Yifeng's first commercial film to receive a 5-star rating.

Jiang Yifeng washed his hands and was about to draw a prize when he remembered that the last time he drew a prize, he had used the "lucky milk" method with the help of D'Addario, and his luck was so good that he drew a gold prize with the "excellent lottery".

Jiang Yifeng then walked out of the restroom and said with a smile, "Changchang, I want to feel your heartbeat."

Although Shu Chang found it somewhat inexplicable, she naturally cooperated since Jiang Yifeng had a need. "Your heartbeat is so steady, you truly have a big heart, so big and fragrant."

Shu Chang was amused by Jiang Yifeng and laughed heartily, which made Jiang Yifeng feel the fluctuations of fate.

Having grasped the essence, Jiang Yifeng decisively chose to participate in the lottery.

[Congratulations, host! You have drawn the golden item "Character Design Card".]

[Character Card: After use, it can help the host establish a fixed character.]

The more your behavior aligns with your public image, the more stable and accustomed the public's perception of you will become.

Friendly reminder: You can change your character card, but please don't change it too often, otherwise it will affect the effectiveness.

This time, the prize draw yielded another golden item.

This is Jiang Yifeng's third golden item after the "Development Card" and the "Biochemical Nanosuit".

This prop is related to celebrities; it's called a persona card.

Having this persona card is like labeling a celebrity.

For example, if Liu Yifei is portrayed as a celestial being, then as she plays more celestial-like roles, more and more people will accept this label.

After some consideration, Jiang Yifeng decided to create a persona of a "romantic and talented scholar" for himself.

The image of a romantic and talented scholar was the ultimate persona of top-tier literati in ancient times—as long as you were talented enough, no one would mind if you were a bit unconventional and dissolute; in fact, the public would even enjoy it and turn it into a popular story.

By cultivating this persona, Jiang Yifeng will face less criticism regarding his relationships with women in the future.

The online environment is relatively relaxed these days, and Jiang Yifeng has never admitted to having a formal girlfriend.

Even if she has shares in Fengxing Media, and is rumored to be the boss's wife, or Jing Tian and Jiang Yifeng showing affection on a TV show.

Jiang Yifeng has never directly addressed the question of his partner.

This ambiguous approach downplayed the controversy surrounding women.

Even so, many moral guardians are still criticizing Jiang Yifeng.

The online public opinion environment will become increasingly strict in the future. Although boxing techniques generally do not target top-level men, it is inevitable that some people will go to extremes.

Furthermore, Jiang Yifeng will definitely want children in the future, and the issue of gender cannot remain ambiguous indefinitely.

The safest approach is to cultivate a persona of a charming and talented man, allowing the public to become accustomed to this image, thereby reducing controversy and trouble.

After all, it's a gold reward, so the effect must be quite good.

Of course, Jiang Yifeng could also cultivate a "best director" persona to boost his market appeal.
Alternatively, they could cultivate a "technology pioneer" persona to build the reputation of the Classic of Mountains and Seas Studio and attract scientific research talent.

But none of these things are in a hurry.

Anyway, the character card can be changed, so let's try the character of a romantic scholar first.

Just then, after Jiang Yifeng showed off his affection with Jing Tian last time, he promised to show it off to the other women in his harem in the future.

As if she had a telepathic connection with Jiang Yifeng, Liu Yifei got up and sat down next to him, asking with a smile, "Is the post-production of 'Zhu Xian' finished? When will this drama air?"

After all, Jade Dynasty is a TV series, and the amount of special effects work can't compare to that of a big movie. For Monsters Entertainment, it was a relatively easy project, so the post-production was completed relatively quickly.

Filming for this drama wrapped up in May, and post-production has been going on for more than three months. It's 90% complete and will be finished in about 10 more days.

Jiang Yifeng said, "It should be November. Gu Jian Qi Tan will air in September, Stranger Things Season 2 in October, and Jade Dynasty in November."

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, this will be the arrangement.

Hearing this, Liu Yifei was somewhat disappointed, as she was looking forward to the broadcast of "Zhu Xian" as soon as possible.

Jiang Yifeng had promised her that when promoting Jade Dynasty, the two of them could be a couple and show their affection.

Although the pairing of Lu Xueqi and the Beast God is a bit odd, Liu Yifei doesn't care about that.

Seeing Liu Yifei's expression, Jiang Yifeng understood her thoughts and said, "The Supernova Games will begin on October 1st, National Day."

I can participate with you then, and have some fun on the show too.

Jiang Yifeng wants to test the effect of the "charming and talented scholar" persona and see how public opinion will react when he shows affection with Liu Yifei and Nazha on the show.

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Duling raised her hand and asked timidly, "Teacher, can I participate in this competition?"

Chen Duling has taken the constitution-enhancing medicine three times, and now her physical condition is no worse than Liu Yifei's and the others.

When Jiang Yifeng set the task for Chen Duling, it started with sticking to morning runs.

This led Chen Duling to develop the habit of jogging and exercising in the morning.

After all, scientific research requires a balance between work and rest, and exercise is one of the best ways for scholars to relax.

Chen Duling was genuinely interested in the Supernova Games.

She has a very tomboyish personality, and now that she's physically stronger, she wants to go on TV to compete and show off.

“No problem,” Jiang Yifeng said. “It’s a good thing that you’re participating in the show. It’s a good opportunity for everyone to see another side of you besides being a top student.”

Shu Chang joked, "Is this another side of a top student? Or is this a blow to a top student?"
"You're good at academics, fine, but you're also good at sports! Are you trying to make everyone else's life impossible?!"

Hearing this, Chen Duling proudly raised her head and said triumphantly, "I learned all of this from my teacher. Teacher Jiang is just that all-around amazing!"

That flattery was perfectly timed.

Jiang Yifeng laughed heartily, and Shu Chang laughed too.

She deliberately sighed and said, "Who hasn't been a top student? I was a first-prize winner in a math competition back then."

After saying this, Shu Chang and Chen Duling exchanged a knowing glance with Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei: "???"
