Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 708 I also have someone to protect
Beijing International Airport is extremely congested.

In particular, Leonardo and his girlfriend, wearing a black baseball cap and a black down jacket, appeared at the airport exit together, which instantly caused a commotion.

Fortunately, the airport increased security in advance, otherwise the media would have had to fight.

On Weibo, one hot search term after another attracts people's attention.

"Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron landed at Beijing Airport!"

"Sophie Marceau arrives in Beijing to participate in the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal!"

"Italian legendary actress Monica Bellucci makes a surprise appearance!"

"Leonardo has gained weight!"

The scenery of Mission Hills in Haikou is pleasant, but Wang Zhonglei’s mood at the moment is not pleasant at all.

I didn't expect that everyone from the official media to the fans would be so crazy. Hot searches, self-media, portals, and official websites were flooded with reports on the 10th anniversary celebration of Rongchen Pictures.

Damn it, today is Huayi’s 20th anniversary celebration!

Chenglong was also browsing his phone in the audience while Wang Zhongjun was giving a passionate speech on the stage.

However, the hearts of the Huayi stars off the stage were on their rivals’ tenth anniversary celebration.

Yao Chen and Huang Xiaoming sat together and whispered to each other.

"Director Li is really talented. If you don't know, you would think Rongchen's 10th anniversary is this year's Oscars!"

"Look at Mr. Wang's face!"

Huang Xiaoming nodded slightly without commenting, but said in his heart.

"Compared to Rongchen's annual meeting benefits, the million-dollar year-end bonus I prepared for my employees pales in comparison!"

Spring Festival Gala rehearsal scene, today is the second rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala.

Yang Mi finally understood why during the first rehearsal, the chorus program was performed by two staff members on stage.

She even complained at the time about who was so big a star that he dared not show up at the first rehearsal scheduled by his senior.

It was not until today when she saw the duet of Sophie Marceau and Liu Huan that Yang Mi suddenly realized.

"This 'La Vie en Rose' is not as good as your 'Little Luck'. Sister Sophie is old, and Sister Yifei is in her prime!" Yang Mi smiled affectionately while holding Liu Yifei's arm in the audience.

She finally witnessed the entirety of this year's Spring Festival Gala today, and it will probably be difficult to keep it secret any longer.

Liu Yifei glared at Yang Mi in reproach and ignored her, continuing to listen attentively to the French folk song sung by Liu Huan and Sophie.

Not long after, Wang Fei also arrived late.

"The Queen and the Fairy are both solo singers, but to be honest, you, Wang Fei, and Ziqi, if we talk about singing skills, they are both professional singers, and Ziqi even won a Grammy."

"But when it comes to popularity, I estimate that your songs 'Little Lucky' and 'Do You Know' will definitely be the hit songs of the Spring Festival Gala. I'm so envious. When can you write a song for me, senior?" Yang Mi kept chattering in Liu Yifei's ear as if she was possessed by Tang Monk.

Liu Yifei turned her head and rolled her eyes at her, then smiled and said, "It's no use for you to keep repeating these words in my ear. I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. Your senior said that you and I are still suitable for acting."

"Besides, don't you have the 'Love Offering'?"

"'Love Offering' was only popular for that year. Who still remembers it now?" Yang Mi sighed.

"I remember!" Tang Yan, who was sitting in the back row, overheard it and suddenly came forward and smiled.

Liu Yifei couldn't help but smile: "Did you hear that?"

Yang Mi turned around and scolded with a smile: "It's no use for you to remember it."

"Why is it useless, Sister Mi? We can all sing." Zhang Hanyun also came to join in the fun.

Li Chen turned around and glanced at a few people, and the chattering people immediately stopped.

The next day, some programs of the Spring Festival Gala were exposed and instantly dominated the top search list. The popularity of Huayi’s 20th anniversary celebration declined again and less and less people paid attention to it.

Beijing News
"In the second rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, Sophie Marceau and Liu Huan sang French folk songs together."

"Liu Yifei, Wang Fei, and Deng Ziqi's solo performances."

"Yesterday, CCTV held its second rehearsal for the Spring Festival Gala, which was also the first rehearsal with an audience this year."

"From the on-site effect, the solos of Liu Yifei and Wang Fei and the duet of Yu Kewei and Yang Zongwei became the highlights of the song program. All three songs were composed by Li Chen and it was the first time they were premiered on the Spring Festival Gala."

"After the rehearsal, many female audience members gave feedback: Liu Yifei's singing of "Little Lucky" was full of innocence, as if she had returned to her teenage years, more like an innocent girl whispering about her first love. I look forward to its early release."

"The first thing that was shown before the gala was a documentary short film called "Spring Festival in Chinatown" shot by Chen Sicheng, the director of "Detective Chinatown."

“This short film records the memories and expectations of Chinese people in Chinatowns around the world for the Spring Festival.”

The Spring Festival Gala program was exposed and immediately sparked heated discussion.

In particular, Liu Yifei's second solo performance on the Spring Festival Gala and the debut of the theme song of "Knowing Your Destiny" led fans of those who did not appear on the Spring Festival Gala, such as Happy Boy Hua Chenyu, Wang Zhengliang, and South Korean popular idol Lee Min Ho, to blast Li Chen online for choosing Spring Festival Gala actors based solely on personal preference.

However, the fans of these people cannot match the fans of Rongchen and other artists in terms of both quantity and quality.

The fans of Yang Mi and Tang Yan alone are enough.

Li Chen’s Weibo became the main battlefield, but Li Chen didn’t even look at it.

It was not until the premiere press conference of "Knowing Your Destiny" on the 21st that Liu Yifei started to fire.

There was chaos at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing. There were no less than hundreds of media outlets, and there was almost no place to stay.

Liu Yifei, Zhu Yawen, Zhu Yilong and other main creative team members were all present.

"Xixi, the media will definitely ask you about the Spring Festival Gala soon. You have to think about how to respond." Zhu Yawen was a little worried.

"Sister Fei, since they can't see the boss, they will definitely direct their firepower at you." Zhu Yilong was also worried.

"Sister, you don't say anything, just talk about "Do You Know?"

"A Zi is right!" Deng Jiajia nodded.

Liu Yifei, however, did not seem to be worried at all, and smiled to reassure everyone: "Don't worry, Mr. Li has never been afraid of the media. I have never eaten pork, but I have never seen a pig run!"

This sentence made everyone laugh.

Zhu Yawen gave a thumbs up: "You are awesome! You are the only one who dares to describe Mr. Li like this. If Mr. Li is like what you said, then what are you?"

After Zhu Yawen finished speaking, she moved away from Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei also reacted and said that if her husband was a pig, then she must be a pig’s wife!

"Xiao Zhu, you want to die, come here!" Liu Yifei put her hands on her hips, causing several people to laugh uncontrollably.

When several main creators appeared on the scene, the scene became even more chaotic.

As soon as the host started asking questions, it turned out that what everyone was most concerned about was the hot discussions online yesterday.

The first person to attack was the reporter from Southern Weekly.

"I'd like to ask Ms. Liu Yifei, some netizens said that your husband selected the candidates based on personal preference and turned the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Horse into a party for Rong Chen's faction. What do you think?" The flash lights were flashing, but Liu Yifei seemed unusually calm.

I even recalled the scene when I talked about this with my husband last night.

Her husband told her not to say anything and just talk about "Knowing Your Destiny". If that didn't work, Yang Siwei would help her out.

But she had made up her mind long ago. She was already Wuxia's mother and Leo's wife, no longer the little daughter who needed her mother's protection for everything.

She also has people to protect.

She will fight to the death with anyone who dares to hurt her children, her husband, or her mother!
She will face all the joys, sorrows, loves, hates and vengeances of the rest of her life with her husband.

When Liu Yifei showed her face, her beautiful hair tied up and her impeccable and delicate face made the bespectacled reporters in front of her feel a little ashamed, and they unconsciously avoided her clean and firm gaze.

"The Spring Festival Gala is the Spring Festival Gala for Chinese people all over the world. My husband is also a mortal, not a god. He can't satisfy everyone. I don't know what you mean by a church party."

The reporter asked again: "Ms. Liu Yifei, this is your second time on the Spring Festival Gala, right?"

"Yes?"

"Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Zhang Hanyun, Zhao Liying, Deng Jiajia, Dilireba, these actresses have been or are still artists of Rongchen Pictures. You don't deny this, right?"

"Can I deny the facts you mentioned?" Liu Yifei said with a smile.

There were bursts of laughter at the scene, and many people discovered that Liu Yifei, who was known as the "celestial fairy", had really changed. She was no longer the chubby Zhao Linger, nor was she the detached Little Dragon Girl.

But she is a mature, confident and beautiful woman with extraordinary charm.

"Doesn't this make the point clear?" the reporter asked aggressively.

Liu Yifei asked again: "What does this mean? I don't think there is any problem. Is this the only program in the Spring Festival Gala?"

Zhu Yawen couldn't help laughing out loud, and everyone at the scene laughed too.

Indeed, these female artists from Rongchen’s group only took up one spot on the show.

What's more, each of these six people is a popular artist, and each of them is strongly requested by fans to perform on the Spring Festival Gala.

"But none of the Happy Boys appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage. How do you explain that?"

Yang Siwei narrowed his eyes and stared at the man, secretly putting this media outlet on the blacklist.

Liu Yifei shrugged and smiled, "Your question is very interesting. The Spring Festival Gala gave them a stage, but they didn't win. You want me to explain why? My husband and I are not judges, so it doesn't make sense."

The reporter was choking and wanted to say more, but Yang Siwei said, "Okay, next one."

The person who stood up to ask the question looked like he was malnourished. He was so thin that it seemed like he would fall down if he was blown on.

But the man he spoke was much smarter than the one just now.

"Ms. Liu Yifei, judging from the Spring Festival Gala programs that have been exposed so far, it seems that there is not a single artist from Huayi. Some people say that your husband used his power as the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala to deliberately suppress Huayi's artists."

When these words were spoken, Zhu Yawen and others were worried about Liu Yifei, but Yang Siwei felt relieved.

She had already made a plan with the boss's wife to deal with this problem.

The lady boss was very charming and her smile remained unchanged: "Who said that? Isn't Mr. Zhang Guoli an artist of Huayi?"

"Also, the Spring Festival Gala doesn't seem to require that artists from a certain agency must appear on the show."

"Some people say that my husband doesn't like male hosts on CCTV, but didn't Teacher Sa Beining also speak out?"

The reporter didn't expect Liu Yifei to be so sharp in her words, and he had forgotten about Zhang Guoli.

It’s just that Zhang Guoli has just joined Huayi not long ago and is also a host.

Besides, no one considers Zhang Guoli to be a member of Huayi.

He has his own company, and joining Huayi is more like Huayi winning over a vassal king similar to Feng Xiaogang.

Yang Siwei knew it was time for him to stand up.

"Okay, for any questions about the Spring Festival Gala, media friends can go and consult the Spring Festival Gala program team. Today is the premiere press conference for Do You Know? Please try to ask questions related to the theme."

After that, no one was so tactless as to find fault.

"Xixi, you made me look at you in a new light today. It's like you're possessed by President Li! You learn from the people you follow." Zhu Yawen sighed.

Liu Yifei raised her chin proudly: "That's right, although I didn't attend classes very often, my graduation thesis got the highest score in our class. You and Brother Jin should learn from this!"

"Sister Fei, you are awesome! You were so cool just now! I love you so much!" Yang Zi jumped and danced.

"Sister, is this what you call a husband singing and a wife following his lead?"

"Sister, this is a couple look! I was in a trance just now and actually mistook you for the boss himself."

Liu Yifei giggled at the compliments from several people, but she was very happy in her heart.

Sina Entertainment News

"The large-scale inspirational costume drama "Do You Know? It Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Thin" will be launched on Mango Golden Eagle Exclusive Theater on January 1 (the first day of the Lunar New Year)."

"On the afternoon of the 21st, the drama held a launch conference in Beijing. Director Zhang Kaizhou and the main actors Liu Yifei, Zhu Yawen, Zhu Yilong, Zhu Yin, Deng Jiajia, Yang Zi, Jiang Peiyao and others appeared one by one."

"Some media at the scene asked about the wife of Li Chen, the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala, Liu Yifei, who believed that Li Chen had turned the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Horse into a Rongchen party, and used it to suppress the artists of Happy Boys and competitor Huayi."

"Liu Yifei argued hard to prove Li Chen's innocence. According to an insider of the Spring Festival Gala program, since becoming the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala, Director Li Chen has almost always been the first to arrive and the last to leave. It can be said that he has worked very hard for the Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Horse."

"As for selfish motives, this insider said frankly: Don't worry about whether it's selfish or public-spirited, as long as the Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Horse can satisfy the majority of Chinese people, that's the effort!"

Liu Yifei's opening shot greatly excited the fans.

"Sissi got mad. Although she wasn't furious, her words were powerful."

"Oh my god, Sissi doesn't need my protection anymore!"

"The idol has finally transformed into a goddess!"

"I feel like I have become a strong woman. Don't forget the tens of millions of dollars of investment."

Liu Yifei's sharp attack also caused ripples in the circle.

"Look at the plans made by other people's teams, and then look at you. I pay you to help me put out fires, not to set yourself on fire!" Zhang Ziyi was very annoyed with her public relations team.

In her opinion, Liu Yifei's ability to fight back against the media so directly and sharply, and also win wide acclaim, was all thanks to Yang Siwei's public relations team.

She didn't believe that Liu Yifei would have such a brain.

"I'm not love-brained!" As night fell, Liu Yifei lay beside her husband with a proud look on her face.

Especially after her husband came home, he was impressed by her performance today, which made her feel a little elated.

Li Chen leaned over Miss Liu, lifted her smooth chin and said with a smile: "You are not love-brained! But I am!"

"But you are the only one who can make my love brain work."
