Entertainment: Who still wants to fall in love when there are cheats?

Chapter 216 [Love is Not Blind] Premiere
Li Boda had no idea that after Fan Bingbing returned to China, she went directly to Zhang Heng and asked him to expand the cinematic universe of "Infinite Terror".

Of course, if Li Boda knew about this, he would wholeheartedly support it.

After all, this matter doesn't harm him. In fact, if the movie he's currently filming is successful, then what Fan Bingbing and Zhang Heng did will be even more beneficial to him.

At that time, Li Boda was in Hollywood, diligently filming a movie.

Because Li Boda needed to direct and star in the second half of the story of "Infinite Terror," he specially arranged for an assistant director to be in charge of filming, so that the filming progress would be smoother.

However, after each day's filming, Li Boda would need to take back the part that the assistant director had filmed during the day and replay it to see if there was anything he was not satisfied with. If so, he would send it back and reshoot it.

It has to be said that some directors have it very easy. They just sit behind the monitor and, apart from yelling "cut," they don't have to worry about anything else. It's incredibly easy.

Some directors, however, are quite exhausted. They sit behind the monitor during the day, watching it intently. If anything is not good, they need to reshoot it. They also have to explain what is wrong or inappropriate, and may even need to give acting instructions to the actors.

When I got home in the evening, I had to take the scenes I had filmed during the day back and rewatch them before going to bed. I would watch them carefully from beginning to end several times to make sure there were no problems with the scenes I had filmed during the day. Only then could I consider my work finished.

Therefore, some directors on set looked calm and collected, with excellent energy and rosy complexions.

Some directors, on the other hand, give off a slovenly impression. They might even grow a thick beard after spending some time on set, making them look even more disheveled.

As for Li Boda, he was undoubtedly the latter in terms of action. Because he attached great importance to the movie "Infinite Terror", he would review the scenes he had filmed during the day after finishing filming during the day and after get off work in the evening.

However, due to his strong body and mind, although Li Boda had a heavy workload every day, he looked to be in very good condition. Even his appearance was very handsome and clean, without the slightest trace of sloppiness.

……

"Crack, click, click!"

"Li Boda, over here, over here!"

"Director Li, look this way!"

"Director Li, how's the filming of [Infinite Terror] going?"

"Director Li, how are you feeling in Hollywood? Is filming going smoothly?"

"Director Li..."

At the airport in Shanghai, countless reporters surrounded Li Boda, who had just disembarked from the plane.

Li Boda is currently the most famous, popular, and followed director in China, if not one of the most famous.

Countless people in China are watching Li Boda and the movie "Infinite Terror".

At this point, "Infinite Terror" was not yet finished filming; in fact, it was still far from being finished.

The reason Li Boda flew back to China at this time was for the premiere of the movie "Love is Not Blind".

The movie "Love is Not Blind" is about to be released.

So Li Boda specially flew back from Hollywood, from the set of "Infinite Terror".

Besides Li Boda, Zhao Liying was also among those who flew back. After all, Zhao Liying is the female lead of "Love is Not Blind," and as the female lead of this film, she naturally needed to return for the premiere.

In fact, it wasn't just Li Boda and Zhao Liying.

The rest of the cast and crew of "Infinite Terror" also flew back together. How should I put it?

Even director Li Boda and the leading actress flew back, and Huang Xiaoming led the way, coming back as well. Why? Of course, it was to support Li Boda's movie, "Love is Not Blind"!

As director Li Boda's film is about to be released, the main members of the "Infinite Terror" crew will naturally attend the film's premiere to help promote "Love is Not Blind".

All I can say is that Huang Xiaoming really knows how to handle people. Knowing that Li Boda brought Zhao Liying back to China for the premiere of "Love is Not Blind," he insisted on coming back with her to help with the promotion.

Originally, after Li Boda and Zhao Liying left the crew and flew back to China to attend the premiere of "Love is Not Blind," the "Infinite Terror" crew, who had been filming quite hard during this period, were given two days off to rest.

Huang Xiaoming, however, insisted on coming back to help.

Since Huang Xiaoming had taken the lead, Yan Kuan and the others naturally had no choice but to follow him back.

Li Boda even made a special note of Huang Xiaoming's favor for this.

Sure enough, shortly after Li Boda, Zhao Liying, Huang Xiaoming, and others disembarked from the plane, news spread online that the entire cast and crew of "Infinite Terror" had flown back to China to support "Love is Not Blind." "Infinite Terror" was already a trending topic during this period, and now, with the news of Li Boda and his team returning home, the popularity of "Love is Not Blind" skyrocketed.

Viewers who originally had no plans to see the movie "Love is Not Blind" have now started buying tickets and are determined to watch it.

Even before the premiere of the movie "Love is Not Blind" began, the whole country was already talking about it.

On the day of the premiere of the movie "Love is Not Blind", the cinema where the premiere was held was truly bustling with activity.

Outside the movie theater, in addition to a huge crowd of movie fans, there were also a large number of reporters from various media outlets stationed outside.

Then, a large number of celebrities, and even some directors, began to appear at the premiere of the movie "Love is Not Blind".

Many famous celebrities, from the capital, Shanghai, and even Hong Kong, attended the premiere of the movie "Love is Not Blind".

It can be said that the premiere of just one movie gathered most of the top stars in the country.

Clearly, the huge project "Infinite Terror," even before the movie was finished filming or released, had already made Li Boda a top director in the entertainment industry. At this point, Li Boda was a hot commodity in the eyes of countless stars and even entertainment companies.

That's why the premiere of "Love is Not Blind" had such a large star-studded lineup.

Looking at this star-studded lineup, Li Boda wasn't surprised at all. After all, he knew his current situation and why these people would come to the premiere of "Love is Not Blind".

Putting everything else aside, just the lineup at the premiere of "Love is Not Blind" alone tells Li Boda that the film's final box office will definitely be high.

One after another, celebrities, regardless of gender or age, greeted Li Boda with smiles on their faces as soon as they arrived.

It was as if, at this moment, Li Boda had become the most powerful figure in the entertainment industry.

Li Boda, on the other hand, remained calm, with a faint smile on his face, and nodded as a response.

He didn't intend to exchange pleasantries with anyone, mainly because there were just too many people. If he were to greet each and every one of them, the premiere of "Love is Not Blind" would have to be canceled; there simply wasn't enough time.

After all these steps were completed and everyone entered the movie theater, the theater was already full of people.

Of these people, 50-60% were celebrities, the remaining 30-40% were reporters, and only a tiny fraction of the seats were reserved for the lucky ordinary audience members who managed to snag tickets.

If it weren't for the fact that there weren't any ordinary moviegoers in the theater, the few remaining seats might have been taken up by reporters and celebrities.

"First of all, the entire crew of 'Love is Not Blind' would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone for coming and for your support..." Li Boda went on and on.

Then they started recounting some things that happened during filming, some funny or touching stories. Well, most of them were made up. Anyway, no one else knew, so the people below just listened to what they said. In this movie theater, the only ones who really took what Li Boda and the others were saying about what happened on set seriously were probably just the remaining tiny bit of ordinary audience members.

After all, everyone knows what the typical format of a movie premiere is.

After rambling on and on about a bunch of touching, moving, or funny things, the movie "Love is Not Blind" finally started playing.

The moment the movie started, the entire theater fell silent.

Everyone in the movie theater, whether celebrities, reporters, or ordinary viewers, was focused on the film.

After all, Li Boda is such a big-name director now, and they are very curious about the quality of the movies he directs.

If the movie "Love is Not Blind" is very good, that's normal. After all, Li Boda is so famous now. It would be a disservice to his reputation if the movie wasn't made well.

Many people even had a dark prayer in their hearts at this moment, praying that "Love is Not Blind" would be a bad movie.

This will generate more buzz and create even more chaos in the market.

After all, the director of a film with an investment of up to 600 million yuan, the highest investment in China, made a low-budget film that turned out to be a terrible movie. This kind of topic is incredibly shocking, isn't it?

So these psychologically twisted individuals watched the big screen with great anticipation, hoping that the movie "Love is Not Blind" would reveal its truly awful nature.

However, their sinister schemes clearly failed.

The movie "Love is Not Blind" had only been playing for a few minutes when the audience in the theater already had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

This is a decent lowbrow comedy; while it may not be outstanding or a classic, it's certainly not bad.
