waiting for your starlight

Chapter 104

The box office of "Seizing the Palace" in mainland China finally ended with 9.7 million, which can be called a perfect ending. While the major media rushed to report on this grand event, they did not forget the overseas record.

On the same day that "Seizing the Palace" was released in China, it also landed in major theaters in North America.As a Chinese movie without kung fu elements, it first lost one of its biggest selling points. Coupled with the influence of cultural differences, foreigners may not understand the power struggle in it. The box office was not promising.But maybe it’s because Li Chenglang, the leading actor, has released many films in North America before, and the audience is more familiar with him. Director Qin Weidong also enjoys a certain reputation overseas, or maybe the distributor’s strategy is right, and the movies have a Chinese style that foreigners like. The big scene, in short, the final results are quite excellent, with a total box office of more than 1300 million US dollars in North America!When this data was sent back to China, the media once again aroused excitement, and it also added a lot of color to Tan Weidong's resume!
In the next six months, "Seizing the Palace" will be screened successively in South Korea, France, the United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, Italy, Japan and other countries, meeting audiences from all over the world...

"Great victory, this is the real victory! How about it, when will we treat guests to a meal and celebrate together?"

Yixi embraced the beige pillow, turned her head to look at the smiling Cai Jiehong, and said, "You want to kill me so much? It's not my box office performance, and it's only on the director and the hero and heroine. Why should I spend money!"

March in Taipei is already very warm, and the elegantly decorated house is crowded with cameras and staff.Yixi was invited by Cai Jiehong this time to be the female lead in the MV for one of his new album's songs.As the hottest music idol in Taiwan today, Cai Jiehong's every move has attracted much attention. Since he used to use Taiwanese actors, Yixi was the first mainland heroine to be chosen, and it is said that Cai Jiehong made his own decision.The two had only collaborated in the TV series "The Queen" before, and this time they played the couple again, which inevitably aroused people's imagination.For a while, the news about "Cai Jiehong fell in love with a mainland actress" spread all over the island.

But the real situation is only known to the parties involved.Cai Jiehong's TV series and movie contracts in mainland China have been officially attached to Huarui, and Wang Anhui is in charge, so to a certain extent, he and Yixi are also brothers and sisters of the same school, and the two have a good personal relationship, so this result is very normal.

But the most important thing is Yixi's own explanation, "The box office of the movies I have participated in has reached 10 billion, and it kills his previous MV heroines every minute. Is it strange to choose me?"

The stylist was doing Yixi's hair next to him. Hearing the conversation between the two, he couldn't help interrupting, "Miss Yi, don't talk like that. That movie is amazing. We've heard of it in Taiwan! We heard about this It will be screened in Taiwan next month, and everyone will come to support you when the time comes!"

Yixi smiled sweetly, "Then I will thank brother Dave in advance!"

Cai Jiehong is very speechless, he can be gentle and kind to a stylist, but he is provocative and arrogant in front of him, who is the big name?

As a creative genius, Cai Jiehong has always composed the music for his albums, but what is special about this song is that he wrote the lyrics himself.The title of the song is "Deep Sea Lover". It tells the story of the hero's lover who died in a shipwreck. He kept recalling the sweetness and beauty of the two, and finally built a stone hut by the sea, waiting for her return every day.

It's the fifth day of filming, and Yixi and Cai Jiehong can finally leave the public place and shut themselves in the house to show their affection.Today is the indoor scene, and now it is the last scene, Cai Jiehong plays the guitar for Yixi, the girl listens with a smile.

The afternoon sun was shining brightly through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Cai Jiehong was wearing a T-shirt and jeans, sitting cross-legged on the floor with an acoustic guitar in his arms.While he was plucking the strings, he smiled and looked at the sofa, where the girl was only wearing a men's white shirt, with her straight and slender legs bare.Her long hair was hanging down, revealing a small face like snow and jade. She looked so beautiful, lying on the sofa like a kitten, comfortably listening to the exclusive love song played by her lover.

In the next shot, Yixi stood up from the sofa and walked to Cai Jiehong's side.He was still strumming the guitar, and after she circled around, she squatted down.She leaned closer to him, their foreheads were against their foreheads, the tips of their noses touched, and there were smiles on their lips.

The staff used reflectors to concentrate the light source, so that the sunlight on them was more abundant, and the lovers bathed in the bright sunlight were so beautiful.And such a bright tone is also in stark contrast to the grayness of the male protagonist after losing the female protagonist, which directly hits people's hearts after editing.

They embraced each other quietly, with huge floor-to-ceiling windows behind them, and they could see the blue sea in the distance.At this time, it was still as calm as before, and no one expected that it would devour the girl's life in the near future...

At six o'clock in the afternoon, today's filming was finally finished, Yixi let out a long sigh of relief, and sat on the sofa waiting for her make-up to be removed.

Taking advantage of this gap, she took out her mobile phone, picked out the one with the best angle from today's selfies, and posted it on Weibo.Thanks to Liu Ji, she now has more than 70 fans on Weibo. Except for some content that needs to be discussed with the promotion Lisa, everything else can be edited according to her own mood.

Yixi posts selfies on it every day, shares interesting stories about work and life with everyone, and recommends some favorite movies and books from time to time. She looks no different from other celebrities.If we must find out the difference, it is that her selfie will not make the whole face unnatural, and it is so beautiful that it is very real.And her recommendations can always be written differently, with interesting and to the point, describing a work attractively, and fans joked that "Mrs. Liu Ji sells Amway very well".
