China Entertainment: Let you shoot for charity and make tens of billions?

Chapter 748 Aquaman 2 Released! Highly Anticipated!

This movie is definitely made with great care.

Warner Bros. and Su Yi will give their all in filming, without any shortcuts. They both want to elevate this film, aiming for a strong global box office performance, and perhaps their goal extends beyond just making money.

Wen Ziren was mainly responsible for filming in the West, while Su Yi was responsible for filming in China.

This time, they hired hundreds of dancers and created countless special effects.

When his wife asked him a question, Su Yi chuckled.

"Poetic and picturesque scenery is our retirement home, how could I not care? After this movie is finished, I probably won't make any more. New talents emerge in every generation, I'm retiring!"

Although Su Yi said it jokingly, he was still somewhat serious.

It's been twelve years.

He has done enough.

He has done enough in public welfare, variety shows, movies, and TV series.

From now on, I'll just make cameo appearances in the "Future Great Director" series.

Or it could be an urgent task as mentioned above; the rest would just be producing.

However, Su Yi can be considered successful, as even director Jiang Wen came to work for him.

In the future, he may not be rolling in wealth, but he will at least be no less successful than Wang Duoyu.

"Retirement is a good thing, but I really feel it's a bit of a pity that I'm no longer making movies. Or rather, I think the audience would feel it's a great pity."

Liu Shishi was touched, because she knew that the other person was thinking of her.

But actually, she doesn't need to.

Now her child fills her entire life, a completely different situation from before she had children.

"It's nothing, I was just saying. I wasn't even on talk shows before, but I did end up on them later, didn't I?"

Su Yi smiled. Many things didn't need to be said. Since they resolved their differences last time, their relationship had actually become closer.

"You're a father now, with several children, so you need to keep your word! But the audience will definitely be very sad. Look at the posts online now, many people are looking forward to you making a movie."

Liu Shishi sighed. Although she knew that Su Yi should remain silent in the current situation, she thought it was better for him to keep quiet.

The higher the expectations, the louder the criticism will be if people are disappointed.

Therefore, it's time to retire gracefully.

But Liu Shishi really felt it was a pity, because she also liked reading Su Yi's works.

This put Liu Shishi in a dilemma.

"Heh, it's okay. If my wife wants to see it, I'll film it."

Liu Shishi felt a little embarrassed, but she was also very happy inside.

"If you really want to retire, let's go abroad."

Liu Shishi said seriously.

Su Yi was taken aback.

Going abroad? With his current status, going abroad wouldn't be a problem, and given his current fame, those capitalists wouldn't do anything openly.

The country will also keep a close eye on his safety.

However, if he goes abroad, it will be a huge blow to Su Yi's reputation, because he has always used patriotism as a pretext to make some works.

Although the works filmed are all very excellent, people will continue to pay attention to this kind of thing. Su Yi's current status is special. If he goes abroad or changes his nationality, then the things he did before will become a joke.

"I was just saying something casually. I think both Liu Yifei's and Yang Mi's children deserve a normal life. Otherwise, it's too unfair to them. Although I was a little angry when I first found out about these things, they are still family members! I hope they can have a normal life. Yang Mi is too focused on her career, while Liu Yifei longs for freedom and wants to do what she wants."

Liu Shishi's expression didn't seem like she was lying; she was narrating very seriously because she felt the child was innocent.

"You're right, the children are still young, and the two of them are already finding it difficult to take care of them. But are you really willing to take care of those two children?"

Su Yi frowned deeply. He also felt that this matter was unfair to Liu Shishi. If he could, he would choose to punish himself for what he had done in any way possible.

However, the method he chose has now been explicitly prohibited by higher authorities.

Within the Dragon Kingdom, any topic related to Liu Yifei and Yang Mi—regardless of anything else—would immediately disappear if it touched upon Su Yi. They even created a special sensitive word specifically for Su Yi.

This kind of protection moved Su Yi deeply, but also made him feel somewhat ashamed.

Actually, when he first transmigrated, he didn't have such high ambitions. He only thought about living a carefree life. However, after reaching a certain position and seeing some things, his mentality changed, along with the lingering thoughts in this body.

Su Yi is slowly changing.

Later, after becoming the director of the public welfare department, I felt that I had found what I loved to do.

Sometimes he even forgot that he was a time traveler.

Moreover, doing good deeds can be addictive, especially when he uses his authority.

With this shift in mindset, one will naturally feel ashamed when faced with such situations.

He was somewhat tempted by Liu Shishi's suggestion. If the children stayed in China—and all of them were well-known figures—these things would eventually come to light with the help of private media. Although the government offered protection, sometimes excessive protection could essentially ruin Yang Mi and Liu Yifei's careers.

The simplest way is to let these two people gradually lose their fame, and this will also protect yourself.

Su Yi had thought about this before, so he had always been somewhat worried. It was unfair to both girls that they had had such a relationship with him and then both had children.

"They are all future brothers and sisters. As for what's good or bad, it doesn't matter to me. I'm just worried that they might worry about my thoughts. When I first found out about this, I was even quite angry... But now I feel that if they are my senior's bloodline, I'm willing to let them come over, and I also hope that they can live a better life. After all, our family is big and prosperous, so there's no question of fighting over inheritance or anything like that."

This was the second time Liu Shishi had discussed this topic with her.

And this happened after he himself said he wanted to retire.

"Don't look at me like that. I don't want your guilt. This is really what I think. We're a family, so we should stay together. Once we go abroad, our reputation won't be known by so many people. We can let the kids enjoy a normal life. Otherwise, even when our two kids grow up, people will still ask them questions like, 'Who is your father? Who is your mother?'"

Seeing the shocked look in Su Yi's eyes, Liu Shishi lowered her head, organized her thoughts, and then spoke softly.

She knew it sounded unbelievable, but since it had already happened, the most important thing now was to resolve it.

Su Yi sighed.

He originally thought that after transmigrating, with his vision and some experience from his two lifetimes, he would be able to dominate the entertainment industry by relying on his plagiarism skills and forward-thinking.

Even if he doesn't sleep with everyone in the entertainment industry, it's perfectly normal for him to have a few close female friends.

But now he's starting to have some worries. He was extremely busy filming "The Future Director," but he would still find time to video chat with the other two women and check on the two children; this had become part of his daily routine.

He knew that many things, once done, could not be undone, and all he could do was try his best to make amends.

"Look, I've made the topic a bit heavy again. That's not what I meant. I'm not forcing you to make a choice, nor am I asking you to persuade them to give up the child. We can live together! I know it's a difficult thing. This is just my wishful thinking. It makes it sound like I'm fighting for the child. Actually, I don't have as much experience as they do."

Seeing the difficulty on Su Yi's face, Liu Shishi quickly and softly said a few words. She wasn't trying to force anyone, but just expressing her own thoughts. She understood that Su Yi was also a victim in this matter, so after forgiving him, she wanted to think about him.

"I've talked to them about this. Liu Yifei is somewhat tempted, but her mother won't let go, saying we should wait until the child is older. As for Da Mimi, she seems easy to talk to, but she's actually the most stubborn. She's a career-oriented woman, and she's always believed that this was her fault and that no one else should take responsibility for her. Although she has apologized, she hasn't given in."

"Okay, then we'll talk about it when they're willing. Actually, I don't want to share these things, but what's done is done. After the movie is released, I can finally get some rest. But the big director's filming will have to continue. Xie Nan asked me yesterday when it will be released."

Liu Shishi changed the subject. Although she and Da Mimi were close, they wouldn't discuss these things, always wanting to save face for each other.

Actually, Da Mimi should harbor some resentment, because it was Da Mimi who took the initiative in the matter with Su Yi.

Moreover, the relationship occurred without Su Yi's knowledge, and the child was born.

She was actually a bit scheming, but in that situation, she was constantly threatened and could be arrested at any time. Su Yi appeared in front of her like a savior.

As the two were talking, Su Yi's phone suddenly vibrated.

After he finished the call, Liu Shishi noticed the surprise on Su Yi's face and asked him what it was about.

"I didn't expect Warner Bros. to move so quickly. The movie is already finished and ready to be released."

Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi looked at Su Yi in surprise. This speed was too fast, considering that they had a lot of special effects and various camera shots.

Despite having the most professional production team, Warner Bros.' speed is still impressive.

"I'm also quite puzzled... but director James Wan wouldn't joke around, and this movie premiered in China, while other markets like North America and the West will be delayed by two days."

Whether this is an attempt to make money off Chinese people or something else.

But at least it's a respectful act, as the film was released first in China, and the pre-sale box office was quite high, reaching tens of millions!
That's normal; movies associated with Su Yi are bound to be popular.

Tickets were already on sale on the official website, but Su Yi only found out about it just now, which made him both amused and exasperated.

He has indeed been spending time with his family lately, but he hasn't been in the deep mountains and forests. It's surprising that Warner Bros. didn't even consult him. However, the distributor of this film in China is China Film Group, so it's quite normal that they didn't inform him.

"Chairman Han Sanping has already made arrangements. He said there's a VIP screening at a nearby cinema, and he wants us to go and check it out."

"Sure, it's been a long time since I went to the movies with my senior."

Liu Shishi readily agreed, because she knew that such opportunities were rare. Marrying such a person would bring her great attention, ensure she had no worries about food and drink, and guarantee a promising future, but it would also mean that her senior's time would be taken up in many situations.

……

"I didn't expect Aquaman 2 to have already been released. This Aquaman 2 is called The Eastern Dragon Palace! It sounds so exciting! And I heard that the Eastern part was filmed by Su Yi, with nearly 10,000 special effects shots and hundreds of professional dancers."

"I've seen Aquaman's style, and it seems a bit out of place with our mythology. Can it really blend in?"

Many viewers have already started discussing it, as there has been a lot of buzz surrounding this movie before.

"It's okay, trust Su Yi's adaptation. Besides, wasn't this already in the news? The foreign director who worked on Aquaman 2 was always making sarcastic remarks and even cut the Eastern scenes to 15%. After Su Yi slapped him in the face, Warner Bros. replaced him! That's the most powerful thing, that's what a director from our Dragon Country should do! It's so satisfying to hear that they just tell you to replace someone if they don't like you, and the other company will fully cooperate and show us respect. Watching Su Yi's movies gives you a sense of energy and spirit! It feels like no matter what movie he's making, he makes you feel triumphant. Even if the plot is slightly unsuitable, you'll still feel very comfortable."

Some netizens gave the most pertinent comments, and many people nodded in agreement after hearing them.

Indeed, there is such a feeling, especially given a principle that Su Yi has adhered to all these years.

That is, it is based on patriotism.

Su Yi never films anything that insults the country, and he will never cooperate with it, regardless of where the people are from. All the films he made on the island were also satirical.

The works directed by such directors will definitely be liked by most people. The remaining small group will not support the films anyway, and they are all people with ulterior motives.

To paraphrase a famous saying, if you don't even love your own country, what else can you love? Besides, this country has given you a peaceful yet prosperous life! (End of Chapter)
