Life in the Light and Shadow of Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 0095 Human nature is complex and changeable



Chapter 0095 Human nature is complex and changeable

After deciding to avoid releasing it at the same time as "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", it was finally chosen to be released on January 11 after much deliberation.

First, time should be allocated for advance publicity, and second, the actors' promotional schedules should be coordinated.

Because the change of schedule was a last-minute decision, Pei Le, after communicating with them, set the meeting time for January 4th. Since New Year's Day was approaching, Deng Chao, Wang Baoqiang, Huang Bo, and others were all at their hometowns with their families.

It would take time for people from all over the country to gather, so Wu Yang decided to start the roadshow on January 4th and release the film on January 11th, which would coincide with the weekend.

Wu Yang was listed as the producer, and Liu Yifei also made a cameo appearance. Wu Yang held a 5% stake in the film's investment, which was essentially a private business, so the two of them accompanied the entire promotional tour.

……

Snowflakes were falling outside, but it was warm and cozy inside.

This is winter in the North. No matter how cold it is outside, once you go indoors and are warmed by the heating, you won't feel cold even when wearing summer clothes.

In the dance studio, Liu Yifei, dressed in a sheer lady's gown, was dancing gracefully in front of a mirror.

With her ethereal features, cool and aloof temperament, and perfectly proportioned face, embodying the characteristics of classical beauty, she possesses a perfect figure with firm and strong legs and fair and smooth feet. Coupled with her graceful dance moves, she is incredibly attractive.

Wu Yang, dressed in his home clothes, was watching intently, his body already bowing in salute.

From the moment she reached base until now, Liu Yifei has been like a versatile sprite, always bringing Wu Yang a novel experience.

If Wu Yang had to pick her favorite look, it would be Liu Yifei in ancient costume, especially after she put on Daji's attack speed outfit, which made Wu Yang completely captivated.

Today is January 12, 2013, the second day after the release of "Lost in Thailand".

With a 40% screening rate on its opening day, the film grossed 6898 million yuan, becoming the box office champion of the day. The second place was "CZ12" with only 1018 million yuan in daily box office. The third to tenth places all had daily box office of less than 10 million yuan.

On the same day, "Uncle, I Love You" only grossed a little over 95 yuan on its opening day, which is not even a fraction of the box office of "Lost in Thailand"!

Just now, Wu Yang was watching Liu Yifei dance while replying to text messages on his phone.

Although WeChat has been developed, it doesn't have a red envelope function yet, and not many people use it, so daily communication is still mainly done via SMS.

Since the first day's box office figures were published this morning, Wu Yang has received numerous congratulatory calls and text messages.

Just before his mind wandered, Wu Yang was replying to a message from Yang Mi, a senior at the Beijing Film Academy who was also born in the 85s.

This future A-list actress, who was ruined by her agent, has now been taken to the Hong Kong entertainment industry by that same agent.

Last year, she also starred in a film called "Mysterious Island" which received a lukewarm reception. If it weren't for the TV series "Palace" which made her a breakout star and propelled her to the ranks of top actresses.

Perhaps in the future, she can only remain in the Hong Kong entertainment circle and sink into obscurity by relying on a sexy image.

The two exchanged phone numbers at the celebration party for "Love Like a Bouquet".

We don't meet often, just exchange text messages during holidays; our relationship is more like that of online friends.

From the news and everyday conversations, it's clear that she is a very shrewd, hardworking, and ambitious woman.

Unfortunately, he misjudged people and later, when he started his own company, he was tricked into taking a small share of the company.

She single-handedly supported the entire company and took on so many period dramas every year, which prevented her acting skills from improving. She also created a "workaholic" persona, which completely limited her acting roles.

In the end, he was kicked out by his agent. Although he barely maintained his status as a top star, he wasted ten years of his youth!

It's a real shame, and if you were in Yang Mi's shoes, you'd feel really bad.

As a time traveler, Wu Yang knew the future paths of many people besides Yang Mi, but he did not rashly interfere.

Even his sworn brother Wang Baoqiang was not warned by Wu Yang.

It wasn't that Wu Yang was cold-blooded, but rather that she deeply understood the complexity of human nature. Wang Baoqiang met Ma Jinlian in 07, and in 10 they secretly registered their marriage in their hometown. In the same year, Ma Jinlian gave birth to a son in the United States, and in 11 she gave birth to a daughter.

With both a daughter and a son, they were deeply in love.

Every time Wang Baoqiang brought Ma Jinlian out to a gathering, the doting look in his eyes was genuine, and Song Menqing was always very respectful to Wu Yang whenever they met.

Despite being Wang Baoqiang's sworn brother, Wu Yang was also one of Wang Baoqiang's mentors.

But in terms of family ties, he's utterly useless and certainly can't compare to Ma Jinlian. If you rashly say that your Ma Jinlian had an affair with the agent she introduced, it would be absurd.

Without evidence, their cooperative relationship will certainly break down.

Just like when Wu Yang intervened in the Chen Jinfei incident, don't be fooled by the fact that he spent a huge sum of money to buy the property rights of the manor.

Although she seems to have distanced herself from Chen Jinfei, she can't stop their past kinship at all, and Liu Yifei still contacts Chen Jinfei during holidays.

As for whether Chen Jinfei has contacted Liu Xiaoli, Wu Yang doesn't know because Liu Xiaoli is now settled in Jiangcheng.

This shows how strong the inertia of family ties is, and how difficult it is for relatives to turn against each other without evidence.

Therefore, Wu Yang chose not to be the villain, nor would he offer too many reminders; at most, he would provide assistance after the incident occurred.

As for whether these people will get injured in the future, all I can say is that the blisters on their feet are from their own walking.

"This audience member has already taken their bows. Could you please give them a review?"

Liu Yifei placed her hands on her left waist, bent her knees slightly, and kept her neck steady while looking down.

This is a Wanfu ceremony, which complements the Tang Dynasty lady's dress she is wearing.

"The dancers are even more beautiful, it's just a bit too much!"

Wu Yang sat on the floor, looking up at Liu Yifei, who was slightly out of breath after exercising.

"Stop messing around, Auntie's still here!"

"It's okay, there's still an hour until lunch!"

"Don't look in the mirror..."

"hey-hey!"

……

Meanwhile, in an apartment in Chaoyang District of Beijing, Yang Mi was wearing pajamas and leaning against the headboard.

I was looking at the snowflakes outside the window while glancing at the text messages on my phone.

Twenty minutes had passed since the last message, and the last message was still the same one she sent.

"When are you free? I'd like to treat you to a meal and ask you some questions about acting."

As a result, they waited and waited, but received no reply.

Yang Mi reluctantly put down her phone and looked at the various invitations and schedules on her laptop.
