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

Chapter 237 is finished.
"Cut! This scene is over!"

"I hereby announce that filming for [Infinite Terror 2] has officially wrapped!"

After Li Boda announced the completion of filming, the crew cheered, especially the actors who played the main characters. They breathed a sigh of relief, and their smiles couldn't hide their exhaustion.

The main reason is that filming "Infinite Terror" was just too exhausting.

Those scenes where they were forced to run for their lives were filmed for real. Every time, they had to use all their strength to run for their lives or flee in panic, and there were quite a few of these scenes.

You could say that filming other TV series or movies is tiring sometimes, but it's just that the workload is heavy and there are many scenes to film.

Without thinking about filming "Infinite Terror," you really have to run or run like your life depends on it, which is really physically demanding. The feeling of being completely exhausted after such strenuous exercise is really uncomfortable, especially when you have to maintain this high level of physical activity while also taking on acting skills.

Now that filming for "Infinite Terror" is finished, they are really relieved.

After filming wrapped up, everyone in the crew treated director Li Boda with utmost respect and deference, even bordering on obsequiousness.

Liu Yifei, however, found Li Boda irritating these past few days, glaring at him with hatred that made her grind her teeth.

In fact, before filming "Infinite Terror", Liu Yifei had thought that maybe they could develop feelings for each other on set—well, maybe they could spend some time together on set, get closer to each other, and eventually have some intimate moments.

Liu Yifei never expected that not only would she fail to get closer to Li Boda, but the distance between Liu Xiaoli and Li Boda would actually become negative.

It would be strange if Liu Yifei wasn't angry or annoyed!
Her mother beat her to it. Liu Yifei couldn't possibly ignore this relationship and have something happen between her and Li Boda again.

This is the real reason why Liu Yifei was angry.

Liu Yifei has even regretted not acting sooner these past few days.

After all, if she had acted sooner, her mother would never have competed with her daughter for it, just like Liu Yifei now. She simply cannot ignore the relationship between her mother and Li Boda, which is the root of Liu Yifei's anger.

With the filming of "Infinite Terror 2" wrapped up, a wrap party was naturally in order.

However, Li Boda did not plan to stay in Xiao Rizi Country to hold the wrap party.

The main problem was the food here; Li Boda really couldn't get used to it!

Whether it's sushi, sashimi, or a broth with an overly salty base, or a dish that's particularly bland.

In Li Boda's view, the dietary habits of the Little Life Kingdom are really extreme, either particularly bland or particularly heavy.

Before filming, I had no choice but to stay in Little Life Country for three months and eat Little Life's food for three months.

We can't possibly have to eat food from Japan for the final wrap party.

Back in China, in Shanghai, at the biggest hotel, we ordered dishes made with high-quality ingredients, not the kind with fancy plating, and then held a grand wrap party for the filming of "Infinite Terror 2".

The wrap party for "Infinite Terror 2" was indeed exceptionally grand.

Almost half of the entertainment industry came to attend the wrap party for "Infinite Terror 2".

Many people even went to great lengths to squeeze in.

The scale of this event is simply too grand. Bigwigs from various companies and industry leaders will be attending the wrap party. So, if celebrities are willing to come, and if they are lucky enough to be noticed by one of them, their future resources will be guaranteed.

Others thought that if they came here and were noticed by Li Boda or other directors, they could land a good role, which would be very lucky.

In addition, some lesser-known directors also wanted to get involved, hoping to persuade one or two big shots to invest in their works.

In short, the more industry bigwigs, directors, actors and artists there were at this wrap party, the more the number of reporters also surged, almost forming a closed loop.

At the wrap party, Li Boda was one of the focal points of the entire event.

A group of people surrounded Li Boda, including industry leaders, company bosses, directors, and celebrities, all wanting to greet or even talk to him.

Besides Li Boda, Han Sanye, Wang Changtian, and others were also surrounded by a large group of people. The next day, the media and other online platforms began to publish a lot of news about the wrap party for "Infinite Terror 2," and the news that filming for "Infinite Terror 2" had been completed also reached the public.

After the wrap party for "Infinite Terror 2", Li Boda was given a short vacation.

The main focus is on [Infinite Terror 2]. Next, it needs to be edited. There are professional editors involved in the editing, so Li Boda is not needed at all. Li Boda only needs to wait until the film footage is edited to see the effect. If the effect is good, he can directly add special effects based on the finished product. If the effect is not good, he can send it back for re-editing.

During this break, Li Boda first inspected the situation at 'Magic Cube Technology', then looked at the various features and design of the upcoming 'Magic Cube 4th Generation' phone, and finally checked on how the special effects company had been operating during this period.

Speaking of special effects companies, during the filming of "Infinite Terror 2" by Li Boda, "Cube Special Effects" also took on some other work, such as the special effects for "The Four" filmed last year.

In addition, films such as "Painted Skin 2" and "Back to 1942" also attempted to have some of their special effects done by "Magic Cube Technology".

This task wasn't difficult for 'Rubik's Cube effects', so I took it on without much trouble, and even finished some of the work.

Li Boda spent half a month inspecting the status of his companies and studios.

Then, before the editing of "Infinite Terror 2" was completed, Li Boda flew directly to Thailand.

Don't forget, the movie "Lost in Thailand" that Xu Shanxiang is going to film was fully funded by Li Boda, and the "Lost in Thailand" crew is currently filming in Thailand.

As an investor in this film, Li Boda naturally needs to take a look when he has the time.

After all, although the script for "Lost in Thailand" is quite good and Xu Shanzheng is indeed quite capable, it's still uncertain how the final film will turn out.

When Li Boda had time, he naturally needed to see what kind of movie Xu Shanxiang had made.

In addition, taking advantage of this free time, Li Boda also wanted to see some of the unique features of Thailand. Well, it was purely out of curiosity; he just wanted to take a look and absolutely had no intention of trying anything himself, absolutely not!!!

Zhao Liying, who was also taking a break and not immediately starting to film a new drama, also had nothing to do, so she insisted on going to Thailand with Li Boda. Well, her curiosity seemed to be even stronger than Li Boda's.

Since he had nothing better to do anyway, and Zhao Liying was willing to go to Thailand with him, Li Boda simply took her along.

So the two flew directly to Thailand. As soon as they got off the plane, they saw the crew of the movie "Lost in Thailand" holding up a big sign with Li Boda's name on it.

Afterwards, Li Boda and Zhao Liying arrived at the "Lost in Thailand" film crew. The entire "Lost in Thailand" crew, from top to bottom, whether it was the director, the behind-the-scenes staff, or the actors, all seemed to be especially welcoming to Li Boda's arrival, as if Li Boda were a leader coming down from above to inspect. The whole crew was filled with enthusiasm.

On the very night that Li Boda and Zhao Liying arrived in Thailand, Xu Shanzheng, Huang Bo, and the others insisted on taking them to see the unique features of Thailand and to watch the Queen of Suzaku's performance.

It was fortunate that Zhao Liying came with Li Boda, so Xu Shanzheng and the others only wanted Li Boda to see the performances of these demon queens. Otherwise, they might have tried to find two top-tier demon queens so that Li Boda could personally experience the local specialties.

After watching the performance, Li Boda and Zhao Liying both said that this thing was quite intriguing.

Li Boda said that seeing it once was enough, there was no need to see it a second time, and he didn't want to experience any local features himself. He really had no such idea at all.

All I can say is that Li Boda is a bit out of place with most people in the entertainment industry; he's not eccentric enough!

……

"Hmm, not bad, Director Xu, your directing is excellent!" Li Boda gave Xu Shanzheng a thumbs-up and smiled after watching a scene that had just been filmed.

"You flatter me, you flatter me. I'm still far from good enough. If I hadn't spent some time with you on the set of [Infinite Terror 2] and learned a lot from you, I wouldn't be at my current level at all," Xu Shanzheng said with a chuckle, speaking modestly.

"No, no, no, your abilities are already quite good. As long as you continue filming at this quality, and with the best editing and post-production, the box office of 'Lost in Thailand' won't be low. When 'Lost in Thailand' is released, I'll help you with the promotion."

"Thank you, Director Li, thank you, Director Li," Xu Shanzheng said repeatedly.

Xu Shanzheng's attitude was extremely obsequious, as if he were treating Li Boda like an emperor emeritus. Huang Bo, on the other hand, didn't seem as obsequious, but he still flattered Li Boda in conversation, practically speaking only to please him. Huang Bo even went so far as to apologize to Li Boda, saying how regrettable it was that he hadn't been able to participate in Li Boda's film "Night Shop," as if he himself had been incredibly blind.

On the contrary, Wang Baoqiang, although he had worked with Li Boda, was relatively taciturn and did not try to get close to him. He just kept a smile on his face and never stopped.
