Words:1445Update:22/06/27 03:49:08
The heated discussion on the Internet came out of nowhere and was overwhelming.
The names on the cast list of "The Shocking Battle" were all famous. Each of the star actors easily had millions of fans. This movie had almost gathered all the popular stars in the entertainment industry so far. This drama had already become famous at the beginning of the preparations, and the movie's official Weibo account had already reached two million fans.
On the other hand, "Qinhuai River", from the producer to the supporting actors, all of them were unknown and could not be brought out at all.
On the Internet, the fans of the actors who starred in "The Shocking Battle" truly looked down on the motley crew of "Qinhuai River". They praised "The Shocking Battle" to the sky and trampled "Qinhuai River" into the mud. They mocked "Qinhuai River" for daring to compete with "The Shocking Battle". With that cast and that plot, it was simply asking to be humiliated. If they did not want to be crushed by the box office of "The Shocking Battle", it would have been better to change their schedule as soon as possible.
Many movies that were originally scheduled to be released in April or May expressed that they would wait and see for a while in order to avoid "The Shocking Battle".
Regarding this, the crew did not react at all.
They all understood that the fans on the Internet were telling the truth. With their lineup, they could not beat "The Shocking Battle" at all. However, they also knew that if they wanted to break out of this predicament, the foundation of the film and television industry was still the movie itself.
Ye Zhen had great confidence in the content of the movie. When she saw the overwhelming negative comments, she was even interested in asking Meng Jie to go shopping with her.
Before the New Year, there was a wave of revelations about the movie on the Internet. There were rumors about the entire crew and staff. There was even a rumor that the approval of the movie was because of the protection of the government and the business, and that the Lu Clan had spent money to get in through the back door. Ye Zhen guessed that the reason why the informant apologized later was because of Meng Jie's mediation.
Ye Zhen did not know what Meng Jie had done for You Jing to make You Jing give up on targeting the movie. However, this favor should have been repaid before the New Year, but because of Old Master Lu's matter, it had been delayed until now.
After receiving Ye Zhen's call, Meng Jie did not refuse and arrived at the appointed place at two o'clock sharp.
Compared to the first time he'd met Meng Jie, Meng Jie was filled with exhaustion and worry that couldn't be removed. At this moment, Meng Jie was no longer dispirited. She was in high spirits and full of ambition, and her entire body was brimming with the joy of new life.
"Mrs. Lu, I'm sorry for the wait.
Ye Rou smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm just a little early." She quietly looked at Meng Jie. She looked at the curve of her eyebrows and the twinkling starlight in her eyes. She looked like a completely different person from a year ago.
...............................................................................................
. This was a promise. It carried a lot of weight.
Meng Jie smiled and said, "Mrs. Lu, you're too serious. I'm also a member of the crew. I've worked with the crew for half a year. I know the temperament of the crew very well. That's why I don't want those rumors to happen in our crew. It was nothing."
Meng Jie declined. Ye Zhen did not really take her to heart.
Meng Jie did not want to say it, but Ye Zhen guessed that You Jing would not let it go. To make You Jing stop, Meng Jie must have done something or promised something.
"Two days ago, a few stores called me. They said that this year's new spring collection had arrived. It's too boring to go shopping alone. I wonder if Miss Meng is interested in shopping with me?"
Meng Jie did not hesitate. She smiled and agreed. "What a coincidence. I also want to take a look at the new early spring collection. It's my honor to be able to go shopping with Mrs. Lu."
They were in a financial shopping center. There was a famous brand every three steps, and a luxury brand every five steps. Ye Zhen did not need to take out the VVVIP card that Mrs. Lu had given her before she left. Just Meng Jie's face was enough to make the staff welcome her warmly.
Almost all of them were brands that Meng Jie had endorsed before.
When Meng Jie was at the peak of her career, she also stood at the top of the entertainment industry and looked down on the heroes.
"Miss Meng, hello. How can I help you?"
"Mrs. Lu and I would like to take a look at your new early spring collection."
The staff warmly invited them to a VIP private room and placed the new early spring collection in front of them for them to choose from.
Ye Zhen picked and chose everything that suited Mrs. Lu, what Lu Beichuan needed, and what Zhouzhou needed. The staff handed a long blue dress to Ye Zhen. "Mrs. Lu, this dress is the last one in Asia. Our store only delivered two. I think it suits you very well. Would you like to try it on?"
No matter what it was, as long as it was related to the word "only," it would be easily given a special meaning.
Ye Zhen walked into the fitting room. However, the moment Ye Zhen entered the fitting room, the staff brought in another woman.
The woman was dressed flamboyantly. She was wearing designer jewelry from head to toe. She looked quite arrogant. The moment she saw Meng Jie, she smiled in disbelief. "Meng Jie? I didn't expect to see you here. "
Faced with the woman's surprise, Meng Jie was not surprised. In fact, she did not even look at her.
The woman took off her sunglasses and looked at her meaningfully. "We haven't seen each other in so long. Aren't you going to greet your old friend? We have been friends for many years, haven't we? "
Meng Jie had a lukewarm personality. She never got angry or got angry. It seemed that in her eyes, no one was worthy of her anger. In the eyes of those who provoked her, she was very arrogant.
"Two days ago, I heard that Miss Meng acted in a... movie with an unknown director. I find it hard to believe that the superstar Miss Meng would actually lower herself to act in such a low-budget movie. Or is Miss Meng desperate and has no money to eat?"
