Chapter 429

~6 min read 1,072 words

Generally speaking, when the movie premiere ends and the ending song finishes playing, the atmosphere group should start applauding.

However, until Xu Feng and Zhao Jinmai, as the main cast, went on stage to thank the audience, the audience remained silent.

Don't misunderstand, there was no cold reception.

Everyone was just trapped in the atmosphere and hadn't come back to their senses.

The intense battle of wits lasted until the very last second of the movie.

To be honest, within ten years—no, even people who don't watch movies often—I'm afraid it would be hard to find such a brilliant battle-of-wits film in their brains for a while.

Recalling those movies or shows that the producers labeled as "battle of wits" before,

the audience who finished both parts of "Death Note" wished they could give them a slap.

Saying, "Can the crap you filmed even be called 'battle of wits'?"

And the ending was equally shocking.

L used his life as the price to expose Light Yagami's true face, the protagonist who used the notebook was finally killed by the notebook, the desperate expression of Chow Yun-fat, who played the father, pointing his gun at his son, that notebook that shouldn't have appeared in this world being burned...

There were too many places worth pondering.

However, keeping your head down and not talking isn't a solution either.

"Ahem~"

Xu Feng, who took the host's microphone, hummed.

This finally woke up this group of Taiwanese stars who hadn't seen the world.

Jay Chou was the first to stand up and offer applause.

He laughed so happily.

The more awesome Xu Feng is, the better the script he gives him will definitely be.

And Bea Hayden, who mistakenly thought she had latched onto a big shot, followed closely behind, fearing she would ruin her impression in Xu Feng's heart.

Hannah Quinlivan, Ruby Lin, Wallace Huo, Jimmy Lin, and other stars and media representatives in the audience also offered warm applause.

No wonder he's so arrogant; he really has the capital to be arrogant!

Jay Chou originally suggested that everyone go to a party to celebrate after the premiere.

They could also find some reporters to hype it up a second time.

Whether it was "Death Note" or the new script Xu Feng planned to find him for.

However, Xu Feng said he didn't have the spare time and would fly to the Lighthouse Country immediately after the interview.

He was in a rush to earn the foreigners' money.

"Brother, you and that Taylor... um, you haven't...?"

Jay Chou suddenly asked Xu Feng in a low voice.

Xu Feng immediately put on a 'subway old man' face; you're a grown man, why are you so gossipy?

Jay Chou laughed awkwardly:

"No, it's just that I heard this woman is very troublesome, be careful you don't get written into her songs."

For a moment, Xu Feng almost wanted to grab Jay Chou by the collar and ask him what kind of impression he had in the minds of their group.

Damn it, every time there's a new actress, I must have slept with her, right?

And sitting in the back row, happening to hear this conversation between the two, Bea Hayden blinked her large, watery eyes.

As if she had heard some secret to wealth.

If an awesome script meets a bad director, it won't make a good movie.

For example, playing Yang Guo, why is Louis Koo's so handsome, while Huang Xiaoming's is so greasy?

The actor's appearance and temperament are naturally a very important reason, but there is another equally important factor, which is the director's strength.

If Xu Feng doesn't direct it himself, Jay Chou's confidence won't be that strong.

Thinking about it, it's better not to brag too much.

Xu Feng doesn't plan to direct "Initial D" himself, and the reason is very simple.

That is, the adaptation Jay Chou filmed in the previous life was already good enough.

Although it lacked some flavor compared to the original, a movie is just something that's two hours long.

It's clearly unrealistic to cram all the essence of the anime into it.

And Xu Feng doesn't think this movie will become a blockbuster.

It would be the limit to get 1 billion or 1.5 billion in box office.

Uh... alright, it feels like Xu Feng's appetite is getting bigger and bigger.

It seems 1.5 billion is too little in his eyes.

Although it was just singing the theme song, the combination of the King of Music and the King of Film and Television already provided enough topics.

The second half of "Death Note" had just been released.

Many reporters at the scene had already started asking about Xu Feng's next film and television project.

And among the visiting stars, another focus of the interview was... Bea Hayden.

Well, after all, at the premiere, Xu Feng's attitude toward her was clearly different from how he treated other Taiwanese artists.

Don't overestimate the integrity of these Taiwanese media.

Tomorrow morning, you will definitely see news related to Xu Feng and Bea Hayden hooking up.

If Bea Hayden eats a bit more for breakfast, these people can directly write a report about her being pregnant.

Don't be surprised, these people are just this lacking in integrity.

To be honest, Bea Hayden herself doesn't remember when she was last so sought after by the media.

Is this the strength of the domestic entertainment film emperor?

Looking at Xu Feng, who was surrounded by stars, Bea Hayden felt a bit itchy down there.

She felt that the "mama's boy" was just a piece of trash!

She'd block him when she got back!

Well, how could a woman protected by a lion fall in love with a weakling?

Xu Feng:???

When did I ever protect you?

Xu Feng and Zhao Jinmai didn't have a moment of rest; as soon as the interview ended, they flew to the other side of the Atlantic.

Timing it right, while the foreigners were all sleeping at this time, they flew over quickly.

As soon as it was dawn, they would immediately meet with Taylor...

"What's the first-day box office?"

A day passed, whether it was Huang Bo, Shen Teng, these domestic box office heavyweights, or Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, these big directors,

they all couldn't help but ask the same question.

What they were asking about, of course, wasn't the domestic movie box office.
