Chapter 218 Yang Siwei Explains
Li Chen's words caught the attention of all the bigwigs in the circle at the table.

Even Chenglong is no exception. If it is not in China, then it is in Hollywood.

This is what everyone is thinking.

But it seems that Chiyou has no other major film recently, except for "The Conjuring" which will be released on Halloween.

I haven't heard of any big projects.

Ren Zhonglun deliberately changed the subject and said with a smile: "Saping, I think you should give Li Chen an honorary director title at China Film Corporation."

Han Sanping rolled his eyes: "What do you mean?"

Ren Zhonglun laughed: "Without Li Chen to support you, which of the projects you invested in made money?"

Han Saping's face darkened. Ren Zhonglun was the only one at the table who could joke with him without any scruples.

No one else, including Li Chen, could laugh.

Fortunately, Fan Qiaoqiao stepped in at this time and broke the awkwardness.

Fan Qiaoqiao leaned forward with a bright smile: "Director Han, I'd like to offer you a toast. Thank you for your care all along."

Chenglong also smiled and said, "Qiao Qiao is the first one to toast."

Fan Qiaoqiao said coquettishly, "Brother, please stop making fun of me. It will be your turn soon."

Han Sanping's expression eased a little, but he didn't stand up. He just held the wine glass and bowed.

Fan Qiaoqiao, however, swallowed it in one gulp.

Then it was Li Chen's turn. Li Chen also expressed his intention, and Fan Qiaoqiao drank it all in one gulp as usual.

After one round, Fan Qiaoqiao drank at least two taels of liquor.

But I don't know if there is water in it.

Chenglong and Yudong were the most respectful, and they both drank in one gulp.

Fan Qiaoqiao is indeed courageous. It takes courage to be the first to come forward and toast in such an occasion.

She started it, and celebrities are not fools.

One after another, they began to toast.

Sitting at Li Chen's table were all the top capital tycoons in the circle.

Even Feng Xiaogang is not qualified to sit at the table.

Several tables around were paying attention to the situation at Li Chen's table.

I saw Li Chen being sandwiched between the bosses of China Film Group and Shanghai Film Group.

You will know Li Chen’s current status in the circle.

Zhou Xun smiled and said: "Director Li's scene reminded me of an idiom."

Liu Yifei smiled and asked, "What?"

"Two dragons fighting for the pearl!"

Liu Yifei smiled: "Wild boar pig, right?"

Several people around burst into laughter.

"Xixi, only you dare to say that about Director Li."

Zhu Yawen added in her heart: It turns out that the good cabbages are eaten by pigs!

Most of the people sitting at this table are artists from Rongchen Pictures and domestic top stars.

Like Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Sun Li, Luo Jin.

The ones with the lowest status are Yang Mi and Zhu Yawen.

A few people were chatting and laughing, when someone came over from the table next to them.

He came up and nodded to a few people, then walked to Zhou Xun.

"Yifei, congratulations, The Thief is a big hit."

Liu Yifei smiled politely, not showing any friendliness but also not being overbearing.

Zhou Xun stood up and said casually: "Well, I'll go to the bar too, after all I'm the boss of our company."

Yang Siwei raised his head and glanced at Zhou Xun playfully, with a smile on his face.

Zhou Xun's expression remained unchanged, and he and Chen Kun walked towards Li Chen's table.

There isn't a fool at this table.

"Did he make an appointment with Sister Xun?" Yang Mi asked without hesitation.

Yang Siwei snorted and laughed: "It's all in vain."

Liu Yifei raised her eyes and glanced at Yang Siwei: "You seem to know something."

"If you want to know, you definitely know more than me." Yang Siwei replied with a smile.

The people at the table were all savvy people and had all heard the gossip about Liu Yifei and Chen Kun.

In fact, many people have stood up for Chen Kun online over the years. They say Li Chen is petty, but it's nothing more than that he yelled at his girlfriend a few times on the set of Golden Powder.

You just told Chen Kun that he would never be hired again!
Li Chen never explained it until Yang Siwei was really curious.

She couldn't believe her boss was such a petty person.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to build such a big business.

Everyone seemed to be keeping a secret.

Yang Siwei smiled and said, "I know what you are thinking. I can tell you clearly that it is not the reason that is said on the Internet."

Yang Siwei held Liu Yifei's arm and held back his laughter: "The boss said that Yifei's acting skills back then were so bad that Chen Kun yelled at her."

"If it were him, I'm afraid he would yell even louder than Chen Kun."

Yang Siwei didn't actually finish what he was saying, because Li Chen said later: Even now, Xixi's acting skills are still far from perfect, and she needs time and life experience to mature.

Liu Yifei frowned slightly: "Did he really say that?"

Yang Mi was also curious: "Why doesn't the senior ever use him?"

Liu Yifei was also a little curious. She always thought that Li Chen behaved like this because of Chen Kun's attitude towards her back then.

But I never took it seriously and never even asked about it.

Yang Siwei snorted: "It's okay to tell you."

"I kept pestering my boss, and he got fed up with me and finally told me the truth."

Yang Mi said anxiously: "Oh, hurry up and tell me, why are you keeping me in suspense, Mr. Yang!"

Yang Siwei turned to look at Liu Yifei: "That year you were spotted by the crew of Tian Long and got the role of Wang Yuyan."

"At that time, many media came to the set of "Gold Powder" to interview you. Do you still remember?"

Liu Yifei nodded: "Of course I remember. I was less than fifteen years old that year."

Yang Siwei smiled and said, "I also asked the boss, did you fall in love with Yifei when she was less than 15 years old?"

Liu Yifei blushed, and Huang Xiaoming and others started laughing.

Yang Siwei smiled and said, "I'm afraid you don't know that we interviewed not only you, but also Chen Kun and Dong Jie."

Liu Yifei shook her head blankly. She really didn't know.

At that time, she was so busy filming during the day that she was worried about being scolded by the director.

At night, I have to study the script and watch Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils all night long.

I wish I could break him in half.

Her mother blocked all the news on the Internet because she was afraid that she would be affected.

Liu Yifei quickly said: "Keep talking, what are you asking?"

Yang Siwei smiled: "This is the key."

"At that time, a reporter asked Chen Kun, what do you think of Liu Yifei?"

"Guess what he answered?"

Liu Yifei smoothed her hair and smiled sheepishly, "He must really hate me."

Yang Siwei laughed and said, "You're overthinking it! They don't even know you."

When these words were spoken, everyone at the table was surprised.

Yang Mi and Tang Yan looked at each other and said, "No way, after filming for so long, you don't recognize Xixi?"

Yang Siwei sneered: "That's exactly what's strange. The filming of 'Gold Powder' is almost finished."

"If the male lead doesn't know the female lead, no one would believe it."

Yang Mi asked, "He said he didn't know Xixi?"

Yang Siwei shook his head: "The reporter reminded him that it was Bai Xiuzhu, and then he suddenly realized it."

"So her name is Liu Yifei. Everyone in the crew calls her Xixi. I didn't know that."

Yang Mi said exaggeratedly: "No way, this is too fake."

"Even a passerby like me knew that the actress who replaced the South Korean actress to play Bai Xiuzhu was Liu Yifei."

"Not to mention that Director Zhang chose Yifei for his film Tian Long, and everyone knew about it."

"He played the girlfriend in the play for a few months, but he didn't know her name?"

"No wonder the senior looks down on him!"

Yang Siwei nodded: "You hit the point."

"My boss just told me: I don't hire him, not because of his acting skills, nor because of the gossip."

“It’s because he’s such a great actor!”

Yang Siwei looked at the scene not far away where Zhou Xun accompanied Chen Kun to toast the boss: "So, I said that Brother Xun's efforts were in vain."
