Chapter 429 Propaganda War
"bodyguard?"
Lin Qingluo was somewhat surprised.
She still thought that Bai Zhi was an actress that Chen Lexin had his eye on.
After all, Bai Zhi is so beautiful and has such a cool temperament; she's definitely got the makings of a star.
Unexpectedly, she turned out to be Chen Le's bodyguard.
Isn't this a bit of a waste of talent?
What Lin Qingluo didn't know was that he wasn't the only one with this idea. Back when Bai Zhi appeared on set, Lin Tianxiong and the others all took a liking to her and wanted her to join the film and television industry.
"That's right, Bai Zhi is President Chen's bodyguard, and she's very skilled. She was the one who saved President Chen when he was in danger before."
Lin Tianxiong didn't mention his glorious record of not being able to last three moves against Bai Zhi, after all, losing to a girl was indeed a bit embarrassing.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingluo was even more surprised.
She hadn't expected Bai Zhi to be so capable.
However, considering Bai Zhi's aloof temperament, she felt that all of this made sense.
After all, those who can be bodyguards must be quite skilled.
Lin Tianxiong seemed to have thought of something, looked at Lin Qingluo, and said with a smile:
"By the way, Miss Bai Zhi might be your roommate in the future, so you might as well try to get on good terms with her."
……
The car sped along and soon arrived at Chen Le and Su Xi's villa.
Chen Le and Su Xi went upstairs to rest, while Bai Zhi returned to her own residence.
With the release of the promotional video, a wave of discussion about "Journey to the East" has also swept the internet.
With the success of "Summer's Delight" preceding it, and the buzz surrounding Zhu Xinxin's return to the film and television industry, there's still a lot of discussion surrounding the first installment of "A Chinese Odyssey."
Looking at the online discussions about Fantasy Westward Journey, the opinions are mixed.
"I don't know how this 'A Chinese Odyssey' will be, but I watched 'Summer's Especially Annoying' several times. Director Chen's works are always of high quality, I'm looking forward to it!"
"Stop bragging upstairs. Although Director Chen's works are indeed of good quality, this time he used all new actors. How good can their performances be?"
"Exactly, apart from teacher Zhu Xinxin, everyone else is a newcomer. What's so interesting about that?"
"How good can the acting skills be from a bit player and a newcomer acting for the first time? I really don't understand what Director Chen was thinking, casting two newcomers as the leads. Isn't he afraid this movie will flop?"
"Whether it's a flop or not, let's wait until we see the full movie."
"What's there to look forward to? It's just two newcomers again. It's really boring."
"Teacher Zhu Xinxin is good, but these two new lead actors are really not good. I have no interest in them."
"..."
Looking at the overwhelming comments online, most of them expressed skepticism towards the two newcomers, Zhou Yifeng and Lin Qingluo, who were the leads.
Of course, some people deliberately smear Chen Le online.
"What good works can Chen Le produce? The Summer Trouble was so popular before, in my opinion, he must have hired online trolls, otherwise how could he have been so popular?"
"Exactly, what kind of ability can a new director have? I bet A Chinese Odyssey will be a bad movie too. Don't bother going to see it, it'll be a waste of your money."
However, this comment was quickly buried by other comments.
"Idiot, can't stand to see others do well, huh? Director Chen's work speaks for itself, why would he need to hire online trolls?"
"Exactly! I've watched 'Summer is So Annoying' several times. The quality is absolutely top-notch. Anyone who says it's paid trolls, are you out of your mind?"
"Some people just can't stand to see others do well. Director Chen's work is of high quality, so why are you spouting nonsense here?"
On the other hand, there's Zhenghe Film & Television.
Zheng Tianming also saw the comments online and a cold smile appeared on his face.
"Chen Le, Chen Le, you really dare to use two newcomers as the main actors. Aren't you afraid this show will flop?"
The thought that Chen Le was going to lose to him again made Zheng Tianming excited.
During this period, he was already feeling suffocated by Chen Le's pressure.
First, the summer's intense heat caused him significant losses.
Now, he finally sees a chance to turn things around.
If A Chinese Odyssey fails, then Chen Le is completely finished.
However, Zheng Tianming has already learned his lesson.
He stopped smearing Chen Le online.
His previous experience taught him that smearing Chen Le online would only give Chen Le more attention.
Although he looked down on Chen Le from the bottom of his heart, he was actually a little afraid that Chen Le might produce another top-notch work that was no less than Xia Tian Te Fan Nao.
Therefore, he immediately began promoting his own legend of becoming an immortal.
The protagonist of his movie is Xiang Xiatian, the son of the Xiang family!
In addition, half of the film and television industry's actors joined the project.
These two gimmicks alone are enough to make the Legend of Immortal Sealing popular.
Thinking of this, Zheng Tianming couldn't wait to have the promotional video for the Legend of Immortal Sealing released.
The promotional video had just been released when it immediately sparked widespread discussion online.
"Wow, is this a movie starring Xiang Xiatian? He's so handsome! I want to go see it!"
"A movie starring Xiang Shao is bound to be of high quality. Looking forward to it!"
"Wow, the cast of this movie is amazing! With so many big names involved, the box office is guaranteed!"
"With so many big names involved, this show is sure to be great. I can't wait!"
"..."
For a time, the internet was filled with discussions about the legend of the Immortal Sealing.
Discussions about A Chinese Odyssey were suppressed.
Looking at the online discussions about the Legend of the Immortal Sealing, Zheng Tianming smiled with satisfaction.
"Chen Le, Chen Le, let's see how you fight me this time!"
Just as Zheng Tianming predicted, after the release of the promotional video for "Legend of the Immortals," its popularity overwhelmingly surpassed that of "Journey to the East."
Some people even mocked A Chinese Odyssey online.
"Tch, what 'Journey to the East'? Never even heard of it. How dare it compare to 'The Legend of Immortal Investiture'?"
"Exactly! The lead actor in The Legend of Immortals is Xiang Shao, and there are so many big names joining the cast. What is A Chinese Odyssey compared to that?"
"An unknown director, plus two newcomers as the lead actors, dare to compare themselves to the Legend of Fengxian? It's ridiculous!"
Chen Le naturally saw the overwhelming ridicule online.
However, he didn't care.
After all, he was already used to this kind of thing.
"A bunch of idiots who haven't even watched A Chinese Odyssey, yet they're spouting nonsense here."
Chen Le gave a disdainful sneer and then stopped looking at the online comments.
These comments have no effect on him whatsoever.
He believes that once A Chinese Odyssey is released, its quality will prove these people wrong!
As for Zheng Tianming's legend of being granted immortality, Chen Le paid even less attention to it.
Although Xiang Xiatian is the young master of the Xiang family, he is very popular.
However, in Chen Le's view, he was just a popular celebrity.
Aside from being handsome, he's good for nothing.
As for the actors from half of the film and television industry who joined the Legend of Immortals, Chen Le didn't care about them at all.
