Chapter 132: Shocking News Shocks the Circle

Chapter 132: Shocking News Shocks the Circle
The waiter brought in Li Chen and Liu Yifei.

I only recognized who Liu Yifei and Li Chen were when I saw them take off their masks.

The people in the private room didn't pay any attention to the waiter who was trembling with excitement.

The waiter closed the door carefully and was distracted the whole night.

Li Min's wife looked Liu Yifei up and down.

He nodded and smiled frequently, "This girl is even prettier in person than on TV."

Liu Yifei thanked him with a smile, glanced at Li Chen, and wondered what to call Li An's wife.

In terms of age, Li An’s wife is much older than her mother Liu Xiaoli, so she should be called aunt.

But given her relationship with Li Chen, if she wants to call her aunt, then what should Li Chen be called?

Li Chen and the two great directors in front of him are equals.

Liu Yifei frowned slightly, feeling quite embarrassed.

Li Chen and she had a tacit understanding and he could guess what was going on just by looking at the look in her eyes as she bit her lips.

"Call me Dr. Lin." Li Chen said with a smile.

Liu Yifei's eyes lit up and she said with a smile, "Thank you, Dr. Lin."

Li An's wife smiled and said in a casual manner: "You can call them whatever you want. Let's go in and talk with the three of us women. It won't disturb them."

Liu Yifei looked at Li Chen obediently, and Li Chen nodded: "Go."

Lin Zhiling walked up to Liu Yifei and intimately took her arm around her as they walked towards the next room while trying to find a topic to talk about.

"Your wedding photos in Those Years are so pretty. I'm so envious."

Li Chen listened to Sister Zhiling's curved accent.

He glanced meaningfully at Wu Yusen, who was about to reach climax.

Wu Yusen smiled and looked at the young and energetic Palme d'Or director in front of him.

The verbal battle with Zeng Zhiwei a while ago revealed the personality of this young man.

But he couldn't understand why Li Chen refused to invest in his "Red Cliff"!
Han Saping told him that Li Chen declined to invest in Chibi, and he would introduce other funds.

Li Chen had a mediocre feeling towards Wu Yusen. He looked down on him and didn't want to get too close to him.

Li Chen is arrogant, but not conceited.

Wu Yu Sen is just the opposite.

In the previous Chen family film “Painted Skin”, the lead actor Zhen Zidan’s role was cut.

Mainland actors Zhou Xun and Chen Kun were cast as the lead actors.

Wu Yusen was very angry when he found out, and went to Chen Jiashang to tell him that he had broken the rules.

Chen Jiashang asked about the rules even though he knew the answer.

Wu Yu Sen laughed, what rules?
Wasn't it the commonly accepted rule at the time that mainland actors could not play the absolute leading role?

Later, he came back from Hollywood, hunted down Han Sanping, attracted investment, and started working on "Red Cliff"

Things will get out of control from now on.

There were several plays in succession, one of which was "The Taiping", also known as the Titanic of the East.

It directly drove Pentium into bankruptcy.

But what Li Chen despised the most was

Basically every drama is invested by the mainland, and mainland artists, even first-line artists, are promoting newcomers from Taiwan.

Tricked Xiaoyanzi into playing the supporting female role for Lin Zhiling.

I called Wang Xueqin and told him that I had admired him for a long time, but ended up playing a supporting role to Big S in "Sword Rain".

There are countless examples of this. In short, they look down on mainland actors in their bones.

But at the same time, they are envious of the mainland market and investors.

A typical case of eating mainland China's food and smashing mainland China's pots.

Judging from the situation today, Lin Zhiling is already in his pocket.

Li Chen sighed inwardly, thinking that he was just making trouble for himself.

He still expects everyone in the entertainment industry to have backbone, but he is just bored!
As soon as Li Chen sat down, he said, "Director Li, Director Wu, let's make it clear that we won't talk about Lust, Caution today. We can talk about anything, greed, anger, ignorance, etc."

Li An paused for a moment, then saw Li Chen smiling at him with gentle yet firm eyes.

Li An smiled bitterly: "You, you shut me up as soon as we met."

Li Chen smiled and didn't respond. As long as you don't mention "Lust, Caution" to him, he is just a cat.

If you don't give up and still mention "Lust, Caution", don't blame him for getting angry.

After Li An looked for Liu Xiaoli that day, he looked for Liu Xiaoli twice more.

But after meeting Liu Xiaoli, the result remained unchanged.

This made Li An a little anxious.

Wu Yusen chuckled: "It's been more than a year since we last met in Cannes. You've made a lot of big moves this year."

"I'm very optimistic about the movie 'The Thieves'."

Do you need me to take care of you? He spoke with such a big tone that he seemed like an uncrowned king.

Li Chen laughed in his heart: "Thank you, Director Wu, this famous model just now is related to your "Red Cliff"? "

Wu Yusen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Li Chen to see it at a glance: "Yes, I prefer her to play Xiao Qiao."

"how do you feel?"

Li Chen smiled and said, "Except for the high point, everything else is fine."

Lin Chi-ling is so tall, how can she be small? Her bust is also very good!

The man outside talked for a long time without getting to the point, but the woman inside was not so cautious when speaking.

Dr. Lin is very supportive of her husband.

She talked about her husband's resume and abilities and then his connections in Hollywood.

Liu Yifei and Sister Zhiling felt dizzy after hearing this.

It feels like Lust, Caution has already secured an Oscar.

If Li Chen hadn't warned her about this before coming, Liu Yifei would have believed it.

Wu Yusen seemingly casually mentioned that Li Chen would not invest in "Red Cliff", wanting to see how Li Chen would explain it.

In the end, Li Chen still used the same excuse, that the company has a specific investment process and cannot invest just because he says so.

What this means is that I haven't read the script at all and don't know who the actors are.

You are not qualified to make me go away just because of your name Wu Yusen.

Wu Yusen felt a little unhappy. It was obvious that the other party was just trying to be perfunctory with him.

Given his current status in the Chinese film industry, no one dares to ignore him.

"A Better Tomorrow" vindicated him, and "Mission Impossible 2" crowned him.

Over the years, everything has been going smoothly for him, and everyone is vying for a share of his movies.

But when it comes to Li Chen, he doesn't care!
Wu Yusen said no more. Li An saw that his wife had not come out of the room next door.

I knew that things weren't going well with Liu Yifei either.

He had a good idea. He asked his wife to take action while he dealt with Li Chen and defeated him one by one.

Unexpectedly, Li Chen didn't give him a chance to speak right from the start.

It’s not that no one wanted that role, it’s that Big S wanted to play it but she didn’t like it.

He also considered Shu Qi, but Shu Qi was a little hesitant.

The role he most wants to play is Liu Yifei.

Because for the role of Wang Jiazhi, her appearance had to be stunning.

In addition, it must have the sense of a cultured young woman.

Looking around who could meet these two points, he couldn't think of anyone else except Liu Yifei.

Otherwise, there would be no need for him to come to the door again and again.

Li An still didn't want to give up.

He smiled awkwardly and said, "Li Chen, you and I are both filmmakers, and we know the secrets of shooting passionate scenes."

Before he finished, Li Chen raised his hand to interrupt him and said with a smile: "Director Li, if you continue talking about your movie Lust, Caution, I will get up and leave now."

"I never say the same thing twice, but today I'm making an exception."

Li An was extremely embarrassed. Li Chen had a smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"Li Chen, you are too aggressive!" Wu Yusen said with narrowed eyes.

He and Li An are both seniors who have been famous for a long time.

Last time in Cannes, I joked that Li Chen could start his own school, but that was actually just a polite remark.

Deep down, I still regard Li Chen as a junior.

In addition, Li Chen is from the mainland, so he naturally has a sense of superiority.

Even Zhang Yimou's "Hero" and "House of Flying Daggers" have Hong Kong and Taiwan artists as the absolute protagonists.

But your "Painted Skin" by Li Chen breaks the rules.

Li Chen raised his eyes and glanced at Wu Yusen.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Li Chen smiled gently: "Director Wu, this is no longer your world, why did you come back!"

Wu Yusen was filled with anger, why did these words sound familiar to him?

In an instant, he remembered that this was a dialogue between Ti Lung and Chow Yun-fat in his classic work "A Better Tomorrow"!
What the three people on the field could not have imagined was that these three big guys would also have their downfalls.

A portable recorder under the coffee table recorded the conversation between the three people word for word.

"Li Chen, let me give you a piece of advice. If you are too rigid, you will break easily."

Li An didn't know how the situation had become so tense.

"Lao Wu, Li Chen, is there anything you want to say?"

Li Chen sneered, and his silence was the greatest contempt for Wu Yusen.

"Director Li, we are not on the same page, so let's stop here for today."

Li An stuttered a little, and his face became even darker.

Li Chen stood up, walked to the door next to him, knocked twice, and then pushed the door open.

Li An's wife, Lin Zhiling and Miss Liu all turned around to look back.

"Dr. Lin, Ms. Lin, it's getting late, we should leave."

Liu Yifei had wanted to leave a long time ago, so she stood up and said goodbye to the two of them.

The three women left the room and saw Li An, who looked like he had hemorrhoids, standing up and at a loss.

Wu Yusen, with a face as dark as Bao Gong, sat there staring at Li Chen without saying a word.

Liu Yifei also felt the cold atmosphere at the scene.

I secretly guessed that my boyfriend probably had something bad to say to these two again.

Li Chen took Liu Yifei's hand and said with a smile, "Goodbye, Director Li."

At this point, even if Lin Zhiling had big breasts and no brains, she could still tell what was going on.

Liu Yifei waved to Li An, and Li An forced a smile.

Li Chen said no more, and the two of them turned around and left without paying any attention to Wu Yusen.

Wu Yusen was so angry that he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage.

"You don't know how to appreciate my kindness!" Wu Yusen squeezed out four words from his teeth. Li An frowned: "Old Wu!"

Lin Zhiling stood there, feeling her heart beating faster, and unconsciously held onto Li Min's wife, Dr. Lin.

Li Chen stopped, Liu Yifei squeezed her boyfriend's hand, shook her head slightly, and signaled him to forget it.

Li Chen smiled at her and said softly, "It's okay."

After saying that, without turning around, he turned his head and said, "I would also like to give you a piece of advice."

"Today, the mainland has no shortage of good actors and directors, no shortage of funds, and no shortage of markets!"

"You still want to play your game of supremacy over Hong Kong and Taiwan. On one hand, you take the money of mainland investors, and on the other hand, you look down on mainland actors!"

"Open your old eyes. You can't even tell the difference between the primary and the secondary, and you still act so pretentiously!"

"By the way, if you want to know why I didn't vote for your Red Cliff, it doesn't hurt to tell you."

"From the beginning, I didn't believe that someone like you who has never taken a history class could make a historical blockbuster."

"Chibi? Xiao Qiao? It's hilarious!"

"Take care of yourself!"

Lin Zhiling's face was as pale as paper.

Liu Yifei's heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out.

He held Li Chen's hand tightly, his palms were full of sweat.

I cursed my boyfriend in my heart that every time he opened his mouth, someone would be in trouble.

He enjoyed cursing and nothing happened to him.

But I am the one who is nervous.

I’m afraid my boyfriend will say something sensational again.

Miss Liu quickly pulled her boyfriend away.

The only ones left in the private room were Wu Yusen, whose chest was heaving, and Li An, who was helpless.

Lin Zhiling felt the room was too depressing and escaped under the pretext of going to the bathroom.

"God will punish those who are crazy. Let's see how long he can be crazy!"

Wu Yusen said a few polite words, said hello to Li An, and left.

The Li An couple were left with a sigh, paid the bill and left.

The waiter entered the private room immediately and took down the portable recorder that was stuck under the coffee table.

I prayed to God in my heart, hoping that he would find some powerful news so that he could have the money to pay off his debts.

When I got to the bathroom, I put on headphones and listened to the conversation between several people. The waiter's eyes were as big as bells.

This, this, this is too fierce!
This time we got rich! This time we got rich!
Not to mention that the waiter was extremely excited to catch the big fish this time.

Li Chen and Liu Yifei left the club.

Miss Liu shook her boyfriend's arm and said angrily: "If anyone has a weaker psychological endurance, I can't be your girlfriend!"

Li Chen laughed and touched Miss Liu's smooth face: "That's why I want you to be my girlfriend."

"You have been slandered for several years, but you have been able to ignore it for several years. Your psychological endurance is not good at all."

Miss Liu was very proud and said with a smile: "If you say that to others, nothing will happen, right?"

"What can it be? Except for your business, everything else is nothing."

Miss Liu held Li Chen's arm affectionately, skipping around, her joy fully written on her body.

She no longer thought about what happened tonight.

No matter what, the situation tonight was caused by me.

Her boyfriend got angry because of her.

She can't tell good from bad, and she doesn't know what her boyfriend is thinking of her.

Wu Yusen was furious, Li An was disappointed, but Li Chen didn't take it seriously at all.

After returning to the hotel, I enthusiastically made love with Miss Liu for a long time.

They didn't fall asleep until they were both exhausted, hugging each other.

The next day, the crew of "Those Years" finished their roadshow promotions and left Taiwan early the next morning.

At the same time, a media outlet in Taiwan broke a shocking piece of news.

The entertainment circles across both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong are all paying attention.

"Mainland famous director Li Chen, risking his life for his beloved!"

"Hong Kong Island is speechless and embarrassed, and Treasure Island Li An is helpless!"

"The real-life Three Kingdoms War has begun, and Li Chen is unstoppable."

"The story of Li Chen not voting for Red Cliff, and Xiao Qiao settling on supermodel Lin Zhiling."

The content under each title is eye-catching.

The entertainment circles across the Taiwan Straits and Hong Kong and Macau seem to have experienced an earthquake of magnitude 8 or above.

Everyone was shocked because of the three people involved.

Each of them is a well-known figure among Chinese directors.

Moreover, all three of them have experience in Hollywood, and the two Lis are Li Chen and Li An.

Now he is even more famous in Hollywood.

Although Li Chen has never been nominated for an Oscar, Chiyou Pictures is now well-known.

Besides, the reason why I wasn’t nominated is because I didn’t sign up.

What was most shocking was the content that humiliated Wu Yusen.

The dialogues in it are explosive and classic.

It was reposted and commented on by countless netizens.

Even spoof short videos have popped up.

In just one hour, it quickly made headlines on major portals and entertainment news.

Countless entertainment reporters were excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

They called the three parties involved and Liu Yifei, the person who caused the incident.

As a result, no one turned on the computer.

Liu's mother simply responded that she did reject Li Min's film contract for her daughter.

I won’t say much else.

Then the entertainment reporters called Yang Siwei and Wu Bin.

The people from Rongchen Pictures reported this big news to Yang Siwei immediately.

Yang Siwei couldn't contact her boss, but she felt that these were words that her boss would say.

Netizens are excited if this big news is true.

What Li Chen said was so inspiring!

Countless netizens rushed to Li Chen’s blog to leave messages, and Li Chen’s fans also grew rapidly.

Although the authenticity of the news has not been confirmed, the whistleblower claimed that he had recorded conversations with several people.

It is absolutely genuine and is now available for sale.

He will sell it to whichever media outlet offers the highest price.

The celebrities in the circle were all silent as they couldn't afford to offend any of the three people.

In the QQ group of Rongchen Films artists.

Several people were also discussing it.

"Senior is so awesome!"

"That's what the boss said, I'm not surprised at all."

"Just based on Director Li's words, I don't regret joining the Rongchen Pictures family!"

"Xiao Zhu, just focus on filming. I just realized how gentle Director Li was to Director Chen!"

"Sister Xun, Xiao Zhu is fine! Not Xiao Zhu!"

"All of you, including Sister Xun, don't respond to the reporter. I haven't contacted the boss yet."

"The boss is really careless. He's flying in the sky right now, and the circle is in chaos!"

Yang Mi is not afraid of trouble.

Li Chen is still in heaven and the matter has not been clarified yet.

Yang Mi posted a blog first: From now on, my only idol is my senior!
Within minutes of Yang Mi posting her blog post, someone responded.

"Don't you worship Tingfeng anymore?"

"Mi Mi, the boss has too many fans. You should compete with Siwei for the top fan first."

Although artists in the mainland circle agree with Li Chen's words, they dare not express their opinions.

But those big directors and bosses dare to do it.

Zhang Yimou, who is still filming Curse of the Golden Flower, smiled and said to the reporter: "What Li Chen said makes sense. Isn't he an outstanding representative of the mainland?"

Jiang Wen: "Hahaha, better than me, this is a very clear statement!"

Celebrities don’t dare to speak out, but artists do.

"I agree with one point Li Chen made, which is the market positioning in the mainland. This is an objective fact that cannot be changed by human will."

Han Saping kept calling Li Chen, but his phone was always turned off.

I called Yang Siwei and found out that the person was still on the plane.

Wu Yusen couldn't be contacted either, but he had already believed the revelations on the Internet.

It was he who told Wu Yusen that Li Chen would not invest in "Red Cliff".

But they didn't give any reasons, and now all the reasons can be revealed online.

That was obviously what Li Chen said himself.

Han Saping was very upset.

"Dad, please stop rocking back and forth. I'm dizzy!"

"Get lost, don't make me angry!"

Han Jiayi walked up to his father with a smile, took his arm, dragged him to the sofa, and forced him to sit down.

I also sat next to him and said with a smile: "Dad, why are you angry? I think he is right."

"I looked up that Wu Yusen and found out that he graduated from some Matteo Ricci College, which should be a church school."

"It's a joke for a graduate from this kind of school to make a historical blockbuster! Li Chen is not wrong."

"On the contrary, as the leader of the mainland film industry, you should have a correct attitude. Even if you don't express your opinion, you can't go against the grain and support Wu Yu Sen!"

"After that, we two will be really speechless."

In addition to people in the circle, there was another person who also contacted Li Chen in a hurry.

He is Gu Yongkeng, because he saw the attention and click-through rate this news attracted across the entire network.

As long as we can get exclusive information, it would be best if it is an interview with Li Chen himself.

That will definitely bring huge popularity and attention to their Heyi Network.

 I'm asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets. I've updated 21.8 words this month, and I hope to keep up the pace next month. I had something to do during the day, so I updated in advance.
