Entertainment: From the Octagon to the big screen

Chapter 26 - Narrowly escaped

After breakfast, Chen Yu transferred US$699.33 million to Jiaxing's account based on today's exchange rate of US dollars against RMB based on the contract signed between Reba and Jiaxing.

This means that Reba has officially become the producer of the Youku solo drama "Fire Like a Song" with an investment of 5000 million yuan.

But Reba, whose freshness had worn off, only celebrated with a few sweet kisses and taking the initiative to wash the dishes.

"I used to envy Sister Mimi who had multiple jobs on the set, but now that I have become a producer, I just feel boring." Reba put the washed dishes into the disinfection cabinet.

Chen Yu closed his laptop and gave a targeted response to Reba's arrogant remarks. Last night, before going to bed, Reba used WeChat to ask Yang Mi how to be "tyrannical" on the set.

Chen Yu picked up the Pikachu notepad on the side table in the living room and prepared to recite Reba's study notes. When she had just had breakfast, Reba was still holding the notepad in her hand and reading the key points over and over again.

"Shut up! Otherwise I'll make sure you won't be able to leave the house today!" Reba rushed to Chen Yu, grabbed the notepad, put her arms around his neck and threatened in a low voice with narrowed eyes.

Chen Yu subconsciously touched his lower back and hurriedly raised his hand to make a "pull the chain" motion in front of his lips to express his surrender.

Reba hummed, nodded slightly and patted Chen Yu's shoulder.

The content in the notebook is mainly about some relatively "dark" methods and routines that Yang Mi privately taught Reba about how to modify the script, how to highlight herself, etc.

Reba didn't have the time to think about how to improve her business abilities, but was willing to study such "dirty" tricks.

No wonder director Wang Zhengyu said behind her back that she relied entirely on her good looks in movies and TV dramas.

But Chen Yu heard from Huang Lei that among the female artists born in the 85s and 90s in China's film and television industry, none of them had any professional ability, and Reba was still in the middle of the pack.

As a teacher in the performance department of Nortel, Huang Lei was ruthless when he criticized Reba, a classmate who graduated from Shanghai Opera.

Moreover, Huang Lei also advised Chen Yu that if he wants to enter the film and television industry, it is best to learn relevant professional skills in advance.

Don't let the audience think that he, like Reba, relies on his looks to earn a living on the screen.

Chen Yu did not dare to talk to Reba who was rearranging the room.

He is not afraid that his girlfriend will hold a grudge against Huang Lei, but he is worried that Reba will deal with him, the "little messenger".

"Move half a step to the left." Reba, who was riding on Chen Yu's neck to adjust the position of the oil painting, pinched the left ear of the "mythical beast" under her butt.

Reba planned to use this house as a transitional "warm love nest" for her and Chen Yu, so she bought a lot of decorations online to add the sweetness she wanted.

At nine o'clock this morning, Xue Dan used GMC SAVANA to transport Reba's express delivery from the company, while Chen Yu went upstairs and downstairs four times before moving all the large and small packages in the car into his home.

"Is your eight-inch photo of holding a gold belt in a pink frame or a red one?" Reba stretched out her white and tender feet to poke the old fish who was wiping the Austrian wine glass set.

Xue Dan thought that the golden photo frame next to Reba's butt was more suitable. Reba turned around to look at it and shook her head. She felt that this photo frame and the golden belt had to be eliminated.

"Chen Yu doesn't drink, why would you buy such an expensive thing as a decoration?" Xue Dan pointed to the customized wine glass set worth 120,000 US dollars.

Reba raised her eyebrows and pointed at the tip of her nose. She would occasionally taste champagne or red wine.

But even if you drink juice or cola from that set of cups, it still means your taste is high enough and your style is elegant enough.

"Anyway, it is fully sponsored by Chen Yu. If I refuse, it will appear that I am not giving face to my boyfriend." Reba knelt down beside Chen Yu and at the same time reached out to kiss Chen Yu's cheek. Xue Dan's hair stood up at the sight.

The three of them were busy from nine o'clock in the morning to 11:10 noon.

After Reba washed up, she and Xue Dan went out to Wangfujing for an appointment with Dais.

Chen Yu will continue to stay at home and sort things out such as:

Brazilian crystal tassel hangings, Iranian handmade brocade floor mats and other miscellaneous items.

At this point, Chen Yu finally understood the true meaning of Reba's words in the morning, "I promise you won't be able to leave the house today!"

But fortunately, before leaving, Reba told Chen Yu that the remaining five medium-sized corrugated cardboard boxes could be opened together when she came back.

At 12:20, Chen Yu called Reba to report that he was going to the ET Evolution Boxing Gym.

At the same time, Dai Si asked Reba in an envious tone in a low voice how she managed to make Chen Yu, a "high-quality stock", so obedient?

"Chen Yu is usually very well-behaved. Coupled with my invincible charm and perfect appearance, how could he escape from my grasp!" Reba clenched her fists and shook Dais gently.

After thinking about it for a while, Daisi really felt that what his fellow countryman said made sense.

So she began to trick her out, trying to get some tips from Reba to enhance her charm.

As for the appearance, Dai Si was very aware of the gap between himself and Reba, so he skipped it directly.

In fact, Reba knew very well that as long as Chen Yu was outside, she would take advantage of various opportunities to give her enough face.

This way of getting along as a couple that Chen Yu upholds makes Reba feel full of pride.

What's more, Chen Yu is not ashamed to do this. After all, he is praising his girlfriend and her name is "Dilraba".

Of course, Xiao Heizi will definitely say that Chen Yuchun is a "kneeling and licking" Reba, and wants to take advantage of his girlfriend's popularity in China. But how can Xiao Heizi know how the young couple closes the door and closes the windows after returning home? It is Xiao Heizi's common denominator to only look at the surface or make assumptions when looking at problems.

Because Chen Yu did not have a domestic driver's license, he could only take the subway to the ET Evolution Boxing Gym located at No. 125 Dingxiu Xinyuan Dongyuan, Shuangmiao.

Chen Yu, who originally thought that he should still be an unknown UFC gold belt holder, did not expect to be recognized by many passers-by on the subway.

A large number of "ten-year-old fans" even showed up to ask for autographs and photos.

But Chen Yu has only been fighting in the Octagon for a total of six years since he was signed by Dana White in the UFC on New Year's Day 2011.
Moreover, Chen Yu felt that the group of young ladies in front of him seemed to be more greedy for his appearance.

On the other hand, the thirty or so guys who were really her fighting fans were pushed out of the circle by their concerted efforts.

"Ah! Chen..."

"Shh~~" Chen Yu, who finally managed to get out of the subway, raised his index finger to the girl at the front desk of the boxing gym and shook his head slightly.

Take a look at the sixteen life-size posters of himself holding a golden belt hanging in the spacious training hall.

Chen Yu's little vanity was greatly satisfied.

"What day is it today? Just ten minutes after Wu Jing and Wu Yue arrived, Chen Yu came in. Are they going to enter the Octagon to compete?"

Since the sportswear worn as work clothes did not have pockets, the girl at the front desk quietly stuffed Chen Yu's autograph into the bra cup and put it away.

Although most of the attention was attracted by Wu Jing and Wu Yue, who were laughing and dancing in the training hall and doing "flower fists and embroidered legs", some people still exclaimed, "Oh my God! It's Chen Yu!"

Like a relay of exclamations, Wu Jing and Wu Yue also leaned over and looked at the northeast corner.

After seeing that extremely cute face, the excited Wu Jing jumped off the ring and said hello while trotting towards Chen Yu who was waving his hands gently.

In fact, Chen Yu and Wu Jing are not very familiar.

It's just that he helped Wu Jing promote "Wolf Warrior I" and "Wolf Warrior II" in the red carpet entrance show before the start of his competition in 2013 and 2016 respectively.

Wu Jing could really be described as "embarrassed" when he was filming "Wolf Warrior I".

With his house mortgaged to the bank, he didn't have any spare money to spend on publicity and marketing in the early stage.

But after Jet Li knew this in private, he secretly called Chen Yu and asked him to help.

That's why there was a scene where Wu Jing faced many media cameras at Chen Yu's pre-match red carpet show, holding a microphone and his eyes were slightly red.

As for why Jet Li didn't directly come forward to support Wu Jing, Chen Yu didn't know.

But Wu Jing, who values ​​love and justice, always remembers Chen Yu's great kindness of "giving help in times of need".

"I told you that as soon as you came back, you would wander around with your wife. I couldn't catch you even if I wanted to have a drink with you. Don't try to sneak away under my nose again this afternoon." Wu Jing put his arms around Chen Yu's neck. shouted loudly.

Who says Wu Jing can’t do marketing?

After being exposed to so many people, he immediately upgraded his originally ordinary relationship with Chen Yu to the level of "loved relatives and friends".

If "Wolf Warrior II" can be a success this summer, Wu Jing, who is invincible in the Chinese film industry, plans to go to Hollywood to try the waters.

In this way, Chen Yu's wide popularity and strong influence across various industries in Europe and the United States are what Wu Jing must borrow.

Chen Yu didn't understand why Wu Jing, who was about to turn forty-three years old, still wanted to cross the ocean and abandon his family and career to go to Europe and the United States.

"You, me, and Brother Yue enter the Octagon to spar?" Wu Jing's words instantly ignited the passion of everyone in the boxing gym.

Chen Yu glanced at the boxing gym students who were holding up various video and photo equipment and the many passers-by who had just learned the news and were pouring in.

Then he put on a cute look like the boy next door, touched the tip of his nose, and said to Wu Jinggong in a rather hesitant and embarrassed tone that Reba would not let her fight with others outside.

In fact, Chen Yu knew Wu Jing's true intention in his heart. This old man just wanted to use an excuse to mobilize the atmosphere in the boxing gym, not to "make a fight" with him.

Only when everyone's emotions are high enough can it be convenient for Wu Jing to promote the just-finished "Wolf Warrior II".

After all, there are many passionate "patriotic elements" in the film. If the scene is too bland, Wu Jing will easily be unable to step down.

This is why Wu Jing pulled Wu Yue to come to ET Evolution Boxing Gym to test the waters first.

If the results of this trip are good, Wu Jing will organize the starring actors of "Wolf Warrior II" in batches to carry out the first wave of "warm-up publicity".

"Thank you. If you had agreed before, I guess by now Xie Nan would have collected the body for me and started thinking about remarrying with my son." Wu Jing applauded Wu Yue who was demonstrating Bajiquan while also whispering to Chen Yu. .

Wu Jing and Chen Yu were talking and laughing to each other in the audience.

But at this time, Wu Yue, who had just received his recruitment on the stage, was questioned by the young students in the boxing gym.

　3003, I hope everyone will interact more
