Huayu 2015, the Artist of Light and Shadow

Chapter 207: Raising a sister-in-law to run away from a young age! D&G goes bankrupt! Let's destroy its bloodline!

Chongqing, airport.

Tian Xiwei finished filming for the TV series "Zhu Xian" and rushed over immediately.

"What? My sister got the second female lead? Playing 'Little Orange'? Really?"

"My older brother mentioned it to me, but I didn't take it to heart. I never expected my little sister to actually get the second female lead role! I'm so proud of her!"

"Mom—I'm sure I didn't say anything good about my sister!"

"After all, casting is the bosses' business. What say do I, a small-time actor, have?"

"However, my older brother must be giving his younger sister a chance because of me."

"Mom, this is an opportunity that comes along once in a lifetime."

"Anyway, it's a rare life experience for your sister. As for the pay, don't think too much about it. I'll probably give her a few thousand—what? 20?"

"Has my brother gone mad?"

"My sister isn't worth 20! It's just a small role, she'll be done in two or three days. She earns 10 a day—Mom, you tell me..."

Jealous? Yes, I am jealous.

"Aren't you jealous? You probably only earn this much in a year."

Tian Xiwei blurted out these words, then immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing.

Then, she immediately changed her tune, saying, "Of course, it's mainly because Mom is so beautiful. Your strong genes have made both my sister and me incredibly beautiful. Otherwise, would we be able to act in movies?"

After finally managing to calm her mother down, Tian Xiwei hung up the phone, her expression complicated.

Lu Yunzhou was so good to her younger sister.

Tian Xiwei felt somewhat proud, after all, her sister had absolutely no connection to the entertainment circle and only received this treatment because of her.

However, the catchy melody of "The Jiangnan Leather Factory has gone bankrupt, and Huang He has run away with his sister-in-law" suddenly flooded her mind.

Could it be that Lu Yunzhou's Wenzhou bloodline suddenly kicked in, and he instinctively began to cultivate his sister-in-law's tendency to run away from a young age?

Otherwise, there's really no way to explain why they would give her sister a 20 yuan film fee.

At least, Tian Xiwei couldn't understand it.

Outside the terminal building.

The van sent by the film crew was waiting there.

Tian Xiwei sighed silently.

Fortunately, her younger sister is only 9 years old. Even if she were to run away with Lu Yunzhou, it would be 10 years from now.

At that time, she will be even stronger than she is now, and she will choose to put righteousness before family, throwing her sister into the Jialing River to clear her mind.

"Hey, Uncle Zhang."

After Tian Xiwei got into the car, she suddenly realized that there was another person there.

It was Zhang Jin, the kung fu superstar, who was invited by Lu Yunzhou to join the team as action director.

Tian Xiwei thought to herself, didn't Zhang Jin reject Lu Yunzhou? Why is he still shamelessly coming here?

However, she didn't ask any further questions. She nodded politely to Zhang Jin and greeted him, "Uncle Zhang, what a coincidence! You just got off the plane too?"

Zhang Jin smiled but didn't say anything more.

Actually, he arrived three hours earlier.

However, upon hearing that Tian Xiwei was also arriving today, he waited for her at the airport.

When the two of them joined the film crew together, the crew's attention was solely focused on Tian Xiwei.

He can then become invisible.

Otherwise, others might point fingers at him—for example, how come he still shamelessly came even though he had already rejected Lu Yunzhou?

Although these people won't say it outright, gossip about it behind their backs is inevitable.

"Uncle Zhang, I have some action scenes in this film—I don't have much experience, so I'm begging you to give me some extra coaching in private."

"I want to be a cool action heroine too!"

"By the way, Uncle Zhang, do you think I have this talent?"

As she spoke, Tian Xiwei rolled up her sleeves, showing off her well-developed biceps.

Zhang Jin glanced at him and shook his head slightly: "You're too thin. Even if you have some muscle, you don't look like you'd be a very strong fighter."

"For action actors, it's all about presence and energy."

"You're so sweet-looking, you're naturally a little lacking in presence."

"The best way to increase your presence is, of course, to build muscle. The right amount of muscle will make you look tall and imposing, with the air of a master. But, you're a girl, and if you build too much muscle, you'll look like a tomboy."

"In short, I don't recommend you become an action star."

Upon hearing Zhang Jin's words, Tian Xiwei gave an awkward smile and hurriedly shook her head: "Since I'll become a tomboy, I'd rather not be an action star. I didn't build these muscles to be an action star; they just naturally became like that when I was losing weight."

Physical training helped Tian Xiwei lose weight very quickly.

However, because she trained too hard, she actually developed muscles.

Unlike other female celebrities who simply starve themselves to lose weight and become skinny and weak, looking like a sickly person, Tian Xiwei is not like other female celebrities.

She relied on super-strong physical training.

"Hmm, it's better to be a pretty vase. You have a talent for that."

Zhang Jin didn't know what Tian Xiwei's temper was like, so he didn't dare to say more.

In the action film genre, no director would use a female star as a mere action star—unless, of course, the female star already has an action background.

Otherwise, being a decorative vase would be just fine.

After all, the hero rescuing the damsel in distress is a timeless theme in action movies.

The audience loves watching it.

Of course, this woman must be truly stunning—if she isn't, the audience will just think, "With looks like that, why would I risk my life to save her? Do you think I'm a fool?"

"Hehe. Thank you for the compliment, Uncle Zhang."

Being able to be a "vase" (a pretty face used to describe someone who is beautiful) is the highest compliment a female celebrity can receive for her beauty.

Not even good-looking, yet you want to be just a pretty face?

Liu Haocun couldn't even be a pretty face in the "Fairy Castle" series. He could only play the kind of punching bag—it just goes to show that most people have good taste.

I, Tian Xiwei, am different. Everyone says I'm only good as a pretty face.

Zhang Jin praised her beauty and mentioned that she was from the same hometown. Tian Xiwei instantly felt that Zhang Jin would be her confidant in the company from now on.

If Lu Yunzhou were to make action films in the future, Zhang Jin would become an important assistant to him.

Zhang Jin was someone Lu Yunzhou had recruited himself.

No matter how many action movies Lu Yunzhou makes, he deserves some credit for them.

Thinking of this, Tian Xiwei couldn't help but try to get closer to Zhang Jin.

"Uncle Zhang, there aren't many action scenes in our film—originally, there was a red-armored warrior who needed a lot of action scenes, and Big Brother originally wanted to challenge his action abilities."

"Now that you're here, these action scenes will definitely be yours. After all, you're a true kung fu superstar, and your fighting style will surely be more spectacular."

"The only regret is that this red-armored warrior wore a helmet the whole time and his face was never shown—but, your brother will definitely not treat you unfairly. In the credits, the action director section will definitely give you the most prominent spot."

"I will definitely not forget you when promoting the movie."

Tian Xiwei had told Zhang Jin about the character of the Red Armor Warrior beforehand.

Although there are many action scenes, his face is never shown.

Seeing Zhang Jin frown slightly, Tian Xiwei knew that for any actor, not showing their face was unacceptable.

Working so hard, having so many scenes, and yet not even getting a chance to show your face?

Doesn't that mean the performance was in vain?

Tian Xiwei could understand Zhang Jin's mindset at this moment. So, she brought up Lu Yunzhou as an example again: "Uncle Zhang, don't overthink it. This is just how visual blockbusters are."

"The character itself is not important; what matters is the special effects."

"Actually, you're a bit better off as the red-armored warrior, at least everyone can see your movements. Some sharp-eyed viewers can even recognize you just by your movement habits."

"The eldest brother is the one who suffered the most."

"He originally planned to play the red-armored warrior himself as a surprise for fans, hoping that after the movie was released, fans would accidentally discover that he played a character whose face was not shown, and then they would praise him to the skies."

"Now that the Red Armor Warrior has been handed over to you, he's not content with just being a nobody, so he actually went and acted in an armored character."

"Haha! Big Brother is playing a character in armor—Uncle Zhang, if I hadn't told you, would you have expected this?"

"That armor, from head to toe, only showed one eye—I can't even imagine how my brother could play such a role. Director Dong must have bewitched my brother and made him lose his mind."

"Otherwise, it would be ridiculous for a top-tier star like him to be playing a character in armor. If his fans found out, it would cause quite a stir."

"Won't they thoroughly criticize Director Dong?"

In "A Writer's Odyssey," there is an armor that is essentially an Eastern version of "Venom." When the protagonist wears it, he can kill indiscriminately with the armor's help.

In the original movie version, the director didn't say where the armor came from or give any hints about why the armor was there to help the protagonist fight the Red-Haired Demon.

After discussing it with Lao Dong, Lu Yunzhou decided that he would play the role of the armorer!

In this way, without any dialogue, the audience will immediately know that this armor was left to Kong Wen by his father.

The armor was stolen by the red-haired demon. Years later, the person the armor was parasitizing was killed by Kong Wen, and the armor awoke from its slumber. It smelled its young master's blood and instinctively recognized him as its master.

Gradually, the armor awakened many of its combat instincts.

That makes sense!

Otherwise, why should such god-level equipment stay on the protagonist?

In the movie, Lu Kongwen's novel "Godslayer" is presented without any backstory or context, forcibly giving the protagonist a cheat code.

Writing it like this, the novel is definitely not going to do well; it'll probably flop.

However, a movie can't just use the content of a flop novel to fool the audience.

Audiences are logical.

If the audience doesn't understand it, the word-of-mouth will turn bad, and the box office will flop!

This explains why, in another timeline, while *A Writer's Odyssey* initially performed very well at the box office in its opening days, its box office performance began to decline after word-of-mouth spread, with many viewers pointing out numerous plot holes. It was subsequently overtaken by *Hi, Mom*.

5x multiplier!

With their help, Jia Ling reached the pinnacle!

The poor performance of "A Writer's Odyssey" stands in stark contrast to the box office success of low-budget films like "Hi, Mom" ​​released in the same period—the difference is stark.

When the investors saw this, they exclaimed, "Wow, bringing a stage play to the big screen is actually so profitable!"

Since that's the case, everyone should follow this model.

High-budget visual blockbusters? Breaking even is considered a profit.

Ha ha.

Let whoever wants to play, play.

Over time, the visual blockbuster genre has essentially become obsolete.

After all, capital will always seek out products with the highest returns.

Listening to Tian Xiwei describe the pairings of the various characters in the movie, and Lu Yunzhou's own sacrifices for the role.

Zhang Jin's mindset had changed. He couldn't help but admire, saying, "Director Lu doesn't even care about the chance to appear on screen, all for the sake of presenting the work better. He's truly special."

Lu Yunzhou was the biggest star in the entire production crew.

In reality, he can shoot however he wants.

He could even add scenes for the male lead, to the point that they overshadowed his scenes.

But Lu Yunzhou did not do that.

Not only did he restrain himself, but in order to make the work more exciting and to make the audience look forward to it even more, he chose to do the opposite.

They sacrificed their own screen time and opportunities to appear on screen, choosing instead to increase the project's buzz and mystique!

That's truly admirable.

Looking across the entire industry, very few people can do that.

Inside the hotel.

It's another rainy day. Lu Yunzhou feels like he's about to get moldy. If you wring him out even slightly, water will probably come out.

After two days of discussion, Lao Dong has basically fixed the script flaws.

Lu Yunzhou didn't elaborate further on the remaining filming details.

After all, this is Lao Dong's project.

At most, during post-production, he would personally step in to make the special effects of the film more realistic.

He is very good at this.

He could even create a magnificent and solitary atmosphere for Lao Dong, full of German romanticism, paired with the Hudson River School and the iconic style of Faithful Men.

However, that will be at least after the Lunar New Year.

At that time, they will also need to go to Qingdao Oriental Movie Metropolis to shoot some indoor special effects, which is the magical scene of the other world.

At least during his time in Chongqing, Lu Yunzhou's work was not particularly busy.

He needs to do more preparation for his next work.

"Hey Coconut, do you know where there are equestrian clubs in Chongqing?"

Old Dong persuaded Lu Yunzhou to film a scene with Zhou Ye depicting the two of them riding a horse together, wandering the world amidst the hustle and bustle of life, like a pair of celestial beings.

Lu Yunzhou thought this idea was good.

When Zhou Ye put on her ancient costume, she resembled a proud rose, and she was even more outstanding than Zhang Ziyi, who was 20 years old at the time. She certainly added a lot to the film.

As long as Zhou Ye doesn't smile, her face is perfect for filming period dramas.

Furthermore, this film employs a dual narrative structure, showcasing the mirror images of characters from both the alternate world and the real world.

Logically speaking, characters that exist in the real world should also be projected into the world of novels.

"Hey bro, I know a horse riding club near the light rail station in the YB district, it looks pretty good!"

Finally, it's time to go horseback riding.

Zhou Ye felt that she and Lu Yunzhou must have an inexplicable connection with horses.

Last time they went out, they rode horses. This time, they're playing Wang Junkai's parents in the movie, and they'll be riding horses again.

I love horseback riding!

Hearing this, Lu Yunzhou smiled and nodded, "Alright then. I'll take you horseback riding when the weather gets better."

"Learning horseback riding will be beneficial for you when filming period dramas in the future. Let's take advantage of our youth and learn more basic skills."

Lu Yunzhou is determined to become a chivalrous hero and an action star.

Action stars cannot afford to have any technical weaknesses.

He wanted to learn horsemanship, marksmanship, swordsmanship, and hand-to-hand combat, and master them all as quickly as possible.

"Uh-huh."

Zhou Ye nodded excitedly.

For some reason, she suddenly remembered a TV series starring Fan Bingbing.

Fan Bingbing was on horseback, held in someone's arms. As the horse rose and fell, her clothes loosened slightly, her cheeks flushed, and she gently bit her lips.

The internet has given this scene a particularly catchy name: "horse riding sex".

Of course she wouldn't film such a shameless and vulgar scene.

However, she hoped that when the movie was being filmed, the director would give her more shots—under the moonlight, when the flowers were in full bloom.

She will wear a red dress and dance gracefully in the firelight.

She turned and smiled, her eyes reflecting a vibrant, fiery red flame, passionate and full of life.

On the other side of the firelight, Lu Yunzhou suddenly froze, his hand holding the wine cup as he stared blankly at her.

Three thousand miles away, I met you by chance.

In the garden, skirts fluttered and danced.

Immediately afterward, enemies attacked from the outside. Lu Yunzhou snapped out of his daze and grabbed her hand.

They mounted their horses and began to gallop freely.

The destination is unknown.

There is no need for a destination.

The two of them together are a force to be reckoned with.

Lu Yunzhou whipped his horse and galloped forward, its hooves shattering the icy river. The whole world roared and shouted for battle behind them, but any danger was easily resolved by Lu Yunzhou.

Lu Yunzhou will play a chivalrous hero.

She must have been a princess of a fallen kingdom, right?

Therefore, the Red-Haired Demon wants to kill [Kuten].

Because she killed [Jiu Tian], this princess would have no one to protect her anymore.

So, many years later, her son, Wang Junkai, wanted to return to the capital and kill the Red-Haired Demon.

It was not only for revenge, but also to save the common people and reclaim everything that rightfully belonged to him.

That's right.

That's it.

Lu Yunzhou remained seated on the balcony, gently turning the pages of his book.

This is an English book.

Zhou Ye glanced at it, not recognizing many words, but it was probably some of the latest film theories, which were more advanced than their school's textbooks.

It's the original English version, so there's no fear of it being censored.

The worst thing about translated works is when the translator thinks they're being clever and deliberately deletes or alters a lot of things.

For example, "One Thousand and One Nights".

Zhou Chi only knew that in ancient times, there was a king who would marry a virgin every day and then kill her at dawn. Therefore, in order to prevent the king from killing people, the prime minister's daughter took the initiative to enter the palace and tell the king a story every day.

The king listened to stories until dawn every day, and then he stopped killing people.

However, no one in the domestic versions has ever explained why the king killed people every day.

Until she saw the version from the Arab region!

It turns out that the king and his brother were both cheated on.

This enraged the king, who from then on never trusted women's fidelity again. He would kill them after each time he slept with them, never giving them a chance to betray him!

This king is far too extreme.

Well done!

"Why."

"When will I be able to find a chance to tell Brother Zhou that Zhang Jingyi is two-timing and not a good person?"

"He should have looked at the story of the king in 'One Thousand and One Nights'—he should have killed Zhang Jingyi before dawn!"

"And I can be the leading lady, telling him stories all night long!"

However, exposing Zhang Jingyi's words might also cause me to be caught in the crossfire—no, I need to find a knife and use someone else to do the dirty work.

With that thought in mind, Zhou Ye left the hotel, made a few turns, and arrived at the rented room where Wang Junkai was staying.

"Why."

"Why is nobody reading my book?"

There aren't even many comments.

Why aren't these people leaving comments? Is my writing too bad?

"You don't leave any comments, and he doesn't leave any comments either. How can I improve?"

In the dimly lit, damp room, Wang Junkai wore black-rimmed glasses, his hair was messy, and his beard was a little stubble.

He has gradually become like a failed novelist, Lu Kongwen.

Right now, Wang Junkai's face is reflected in the dark blue computer screen. He is looking down, typing furiously on the keyboard, writing his floppy novel.

Zhou Ye heard that Wang Junkai's novel had only two readers after a month of writing. It was truly heartbreaking.

Zhou Ye has been here several times in this period and knows the way well.

At this moment, she even found the teacup and poured Wang Junkai a glass of water, then casually asked, "My son, how many readers did you have today?"

My son?

Upon hearing this address, Wang Junkai felt his entire body stiffen.

Zhou Ye has probably gone mad.

He got too caught up in the role.

Wang Junkai pushed the keyboard forward, adjusted his glasses, turned to look at Zhou Ye, and said helplessly, "Senior, can't you go outside for a walk if you don't have anything to do? Stop coming to see me all the time. People in the crew are starting to gossip about it."

"What gossip are you spreading?"

Zhou Ye stood up and looked down at Wang Junkai.

After observing carefully for a while, Zhou Ye gradually realized something.

She covered her mouth, surprised, and said, "Good lad! You've been keeping it a secret. You've been secretly dating? I come to see you every day, are you afraid of gossip, or that your girlfriend will misunderstand?"

"You're quite the guy, at least a third as capable as your old man. Don't be shy, bring your girlfriend to meet your mother. I'll give you my opinion."

I'm speechless!

Wang Junkai felt that Zhou Ye wasn't crazy; it was he who was crazy.

He must have gone mad from writing novels—what did he just hear? Zhou Ye claimed to be his mother and offered to vet his girlfriend?

Is this something a cold and aloof goddess like Zhou Ye would say?

He must be hallucinating.

Since we've already gone mad, let's go all the way with madness.

Wang Junkai turned to look at Zhou Ye, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Senior, what do you think of Zhang Jingyi? I feel like she likes me. Last time, because I unintentionally praised you a few times, she got inexplicably angry, and seemed a bit jealous."

"No!"

Zhou Ye's face suddenly turned cold: "Our family is of very high social standing. Don't date this kind of shady woman."

Upon hearing this, Wang Junkai looked at Zhou Ye in disbelief: "Senior, what are you talking about? How could Jingjing possibly be a disreputable person?"

She's Brother Zhou's cousin!

If someone hears you talking like that, don't let it cause me to be replaced as the male lead!

"In short, Mom won't allow it!"

Zhou Ye reached out and gently patted Wang Junkai's shoulder, saying earnestly, "Kai Kai, trust me this once. I won't hurt you!"

Kai Kai?

I'm fucking going crazy!

Wang Junkai felt goosebumps all over his body: "Senior, it's just filming, you don't need to be so immersed in the role, do you?"

We don't have any scenes together. You're coming to me to practice, paying such a high price—isn't that a bit too much of a bargain?

"If I don't come to you, who else can I come to?"

Zhou Chi shrugged and said helplessly, "Brother Zhou is always reading in his room. He reads all English professional books, and I don't even know many of the words in those books. I can't exactly say to him, 'Honey, let's go over the lines.' Or, I can't just play husband and wife on set for a few days so I can get a feel for playing your wife."

Wang Junkai thought that Lu Yunzhou would be full of doubt and show an even more surprised expression than him when he thought about that scene.

He had to bear this hardship himself.

"Kai Kai, besides reading, what else does your dad (in Chongqing dialect) like to do?"

Zhou Ye simply sat opposite Wang Junkai and refused to leave.

Wang Junkai thought to himself that he absolutely could not let Zhou Ye lead him astray.

At this point, he forced himself to say, "My father, of course, loves my mother the most. If he didn't love my mother, how could I exist?"

"That's right!"

Zhou Ye laughed and patted Wang Junkai on the shoulder: "Kai Kai, you're so cute. You'll definitely have no shortage of girls who like you in the future."

"Great! Mom loves hearing the truth from you!"

The more I hear this, the stranger it sounds.

Wang Junkai sighed helplessly and said with a wry smile, "Senior, I know I have a lot of 'motherly' fans. That's the downside of our kind of idol-training group. But you're probably not that old yet, right?"

Wang Junkai now suspects that Zhou Ye is his devoted fan.

Some of his fans, especially the more extreme ones, would call themselves "Mom" in front of him!

Zhou Ye's current symptoms match all of them!

"Kai Kai, anyway, Mom won't allow you to like Zhang Jingyi. She's too good at pretending. Her acting skills are a million times better than yours."

o

"We can't out-act her."

"If Mom hadn't known her background, she almost would have been fooled by her too."

"Do you know why Cai Xukun has been in South Korea lately and hasn't come back yet?"

I'm too embarrassed to tell you.

"In short, Kai Kai, you'll be punished for not listening to your mother."

"Don't look at me like that. How could your mother possibly hurt you?"

"Right now, we're filming a movie produced by your father, a big-budget production with a budget of 300 million. You have to be extremely careful, lest you get yourself into trouble because you misjudged someone."

Although Zhou Ye's words were a bit neurotic, upon closer examination, Wang Junkai felt that they made some sense.

He never trusted anyone.

Because he had learned his lesson the hard way.

Last time at a drinking party, he was drugged and felt a little confused.

His first reaction was to run into the bathroom, lock himself in, and sleep for two hours before he came to his senses.

If he had been outside for those two hours, he probably would have been taken away by someone—his chastity would have been lost.

In fact, he always kept his distance from Zhou Ye because she seemed like a cold and ill-intentioned person.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Ye's personality and appearance are so different.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will keep it in mind."

Wang Junkai could sense Zhou Ye's goodwill towards him, but Zhou Ye's crazy appearance made him a little scared.

Now, all he wants is to get rid of Zhou Ye.

Zhou Ye kept calling him "Mom," which really left him speechless.

However, he couldn't object.

Because Zhou Ye might be trying to find the right feeling for the movie!

After all, in the movie, Zhou Yezhen played his mother.

This is the hardest part to maintain.

In an attempt to discourage Zhou Ye, Wang Junkai stopped writing his novel and memorizing his lines, instead taking out his phone to idly browse Weibo and deliberately wasting time.

However, at that moment, he saw a trending topic that was rapidly climbing the charts.

Wang Junkai was stunned for a moment. He quickly leaned over the phone and read it carefully, word by word.

Dolce & Gabbana's "Eating with Chopsticks" Post Goes Bad, Suspected of Being Insulting to China

"Damn it!"

Upon seeing this, Wang Junkai couldn't hold back any longer.

As Dolce & Gabbana's brand ambassador for the Asia-Pacific region, he was invited to attend Dolce & Gabbana's fashion show in Shanghai three days later.

He had already asked the director for leave.

As a result, Dolce & Gabbana gave him this surprise at this critical juncture.

Seeing Wang Junkai's strange expression, Zhou Ye looked down and was also taken aback: "Kai Kai, if I remember correctly, aren't you Dolce & Gabbana's Asia-Pacific brand ambassador?"

Wang Junkai's face was extremely ugly.

Zhou Ye is truly a jinx.

Just now they were saying that disobeying their mother would bring retribution.

As a result, karma struck!

I fucking really—

At the same time, related content popped up on countless people's phones.

Lu Yunzhou, who was sitting on the balcony reading a book, received several WeChat messages from friends and business partners in the industry.

He picked up the phone and glanced at it.

After a moment's thought, Lu Yunzhou sent a message to the marketing director of Kourry China: "Give it a boost, and send Dolce & Gabbana to the top of the trending searches!"

"Also, let's give a general overview of Dolce & Gabbana's pedigree online."

"Let me tell netizens across the country that this brand is not a genuine Italian brand, but rather a product of Albanian refugees who infiltrated Italy and are now trying to pass itself off as a genuine Italian brand."

If it's a purely Italian design, it can still make money off consumers in China.

After all, Italian design sounds high-end and exudes the aura of a long-established European power.

However, if the owner and designer of this brand are actually of Albanian descent, with ancestors who were refugees, then it probably won't sound high-end at all.

It sounds like a cheap product.

It will probably be difficult to get Chinese buyers to pay a premium for these Albanian-designed products.

The essence of luxury goods is the admiration for power and the worship of bloodlines.

Lu Yunzhou firmly believed that as long as he eliminated the Dolce & Gabbana bloodline, he could succeed.

Whenever someone mentions it, someone will say disdainfully: "Oh, Dolce & Gabbana? I know, that Albanian brand!"

Once this kind of public opinion emerges, this brand, at least in China, will no longer be able to sell.

"Boss, this move of yours could probably kill Dolce & Gabbana!!"

Upon hearing Lu Yunzhou's words, the PR director of Kourry China immediately realized how ruthless this move was.

It's like trampling Dolce & Gabbana's noble luxury heritage into the mud.

Albanian design?

High-end luxury goods?

How can these two things be combined?

At least in China, this story doesn't make sense.
