Chapter 708

Hmm... actually, Xu Feng felt it was still uncertain.

Because he heard that Jia Ling was already preparing for the movie *Hi, Mom*.

Honestly, should he let one of his female artists get a piece of the action?

Da Mimi?

No, too flirtatious; she can't act out that revolutionary cadre vibe.

It feels like only Gao Yuanyuan or a mature woman like Dong Xuan could compete for it.

However, Xu Feng felt the possibility was low.

After all, the female lead Zhang Xiaofei is Jia Ling's own person; how could she be willing to change people?

Returning to the topic of his own movie, facing Duan Yihong's low-voiced inquiry, Xu Feng smiled slightly and replied: "A historical film, but with some dramatized elements."

"Oh?"

Duan Yihong blinked and asked again: "How do you think it compares to our show?"

Xu Feng was silent for two seconds, and after confirming no one was eavesdropping, he whispered: "Can't you see your show is a piece of trash?"

To be honest, it's a skill to play a good hand of cards so poorly as *Qin Dynasty Epic*.

Xu Feng himself felt a bit of "hate that iron doesn't turn into steel."

Fu Dalong's half-hour performance in *National Treasure* is better than yours, okay?

Upon hearing this from Xu Feng, Duan Yihong's face immediately fell.

He also felt the script was a bit strange.

Not to mention anything else, the Ying Zheng in this script didn't have a shred of the dominance of an emperor through the ages; he was like a moron.

"Then why don't you give the director some advice?"

Duan Yihong asked tentatively.

"Don't, I don't want to work hard and get nothing in return while getting myself into trouble."

Xu Feng waved his hands hurriedly.

Although he felt sorry for *The Qin Empire* series.

He wouldn't risk getting himself into trouble by meddling in other people's business.

He was neither an investor nor the lead actor, so why should he change the script?

His reputation wasn't great to begin with; if this got out, who knows how he would be scolded.

Labor Day arrived. Two movies took the lead in announcing their wrap-up with great fanfare.

*Mulan*, a US-China co-production starring "Fairy Sister" Liu Yifei, with big names like Jet Li, Donnie Yen, and Gong Li joining the cast.

And *White Album*, starring Da Mimi and Dilraba as dual female leads, which, although the cast was a hundred and eight thousand miles behind, was enough to make up the gap just by having the words "Screenplay by Xu Feng."

This really isn't bragging; the Kung Fu Emperor is now like Jackie Chan, and his box office appeal is no longer what it was when he was young.

Not to mention there's also Liu Yifei; netizens will definitely have to weigh things before buying tickets.

At the press conference.

When asked about the approximate release date, the American director stammered that it depended on how long post-production would take.

On the other side, facing the same question, Da Mimi didn't hesitate to give the answer: the summer release slot.

And after this, the crew of the "Fairy Sister" version of *Mulan* finally spoke up on Weibo, stating that they would also be released in the summer slot.

To the average passerby, it was just a simple clash of schedules, nothing to be surprised about. However, the omnipotent netizens immediately analyzed a conspiracy theory from it.

Why didn't they say it during the interview, only announcing it after *White Album* announced its release date?

It's very simple: because this release slot is definitely safe.

*White Album* has Xu Feng's involvement, which means Xu Feng himself won't be making any moves during this time.

It's very likely that the second season of *Naruto* will also end around this time.

That's why Da Mimi dared to choose this release slot.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be fighting against one's own people?

And although the production team of the "Fairy Sister" version of *Mulan* felt there was some risk in competing with Xu Feng's movie.

They ultimately decided to release in the summer as well.

After all, Xu Feng was only the screenwriter for this movie; he didn't direct it personally, nor did he act in it.

Although *Initial D* was in a similar situation, at least Xu Feng made a cameo appearance back then, right?

Therefore, the production team of the "Fairy Sister" version of *Mulan* felt they had a high chance of winning this round and could go for it.
