Chapter 654 Husband and Wife VS Father and Son
Among the three major dramas that debuted during the Lunar New Year holiday, only "Kowloon Walled City" achieved both high reputation and box office success.
Although word of mouth has continued to rise since the release of Feng Xiaogang's "1942", the failure at the box office has become an irreversible fact.
As for The Banquet, perhaps only Lu Chuan, or maybe his father who is still immersed in his self-deceiving dream, thinks that The Banquet is a sincere work.
'The navy misled our land commander' seems to have become his label.
From "Nan Jing" which was suppressed by Li Chen to the current "The Banquet", Lu Chuan would complain to the media about the harm caused by Internet water army at every stop.
The old father, who was eager to protect his son, stood up on Weibo to defend his son. Li Chen was worried that he had no excuse to finish off Lu Chuan, but the father and son pushed Li Chen from behind the scenes to the front.
China News Service reported
"The King's Feast" received a lot of negative reviews. Lu's father said: Someone is behind this."
"The person behind the scenes mentioned by Lu's father is believed by netizens to be Li Chen, a competitor in the Lunar New Year period. In response to netizens' comments, Lu Chuan and his son did not personally admit that the person behind the scenes was Li Chen, the head of Rongchen Pictures."
"Since the release of the movie The Banquet, Lu Chuan has been pushed to the forefront of public opinion. Is this a failure, or is it a sincere work as Lu Chuan herself described?"

"Although Lu Chuan did not directly respond to online doubts, her father, the famous screenwriter Lu Tianming, "protected his son" and started a war of words with netizens on Weibo."
"There is at least a 100-plus-lucky difference between Little Cannon and Little Leo!" A Lu Hei pondered for a moment and said, "Then Little Cannon and Little Leo are not much different." This is a popular joke on Weibo recently.
Watching countless "justice-minded" netizens go to Li Chen's Weibo to question whether Li Chen is the mastermind behind the incident as his father said.
Lu Chuan only felt that the anger that had been stuck in her chest for days was swept away.
"Did you instruct Uncle Lu to post on Weibo?" Qin Lan looked unhappy.
"What? What did my dad say wrong?" Lu Chuan said indifferently.
"Can't you just be a man? If you lose, you lose. Why bother dragging others down with you?"
Qin Lan's original intention was for Lu Chuan's own good; she had never seen Li Chen suffer any loss.
When she was together with Huang Xiaoming, Huang Xiaoming said something that left a deep impression on her: There are two very powerful people in the circle, one is Mr. Han and the other is Director Li. The former is in a high position, while the latter rose from the grassroots.
At that time, Qin Lan even jokingly asked: "What if two powerful people, Mr. Han and Director Li, confront each other?"
Huang Xiaoming thought for a moment and replied, "It's easy to say within five years, but it's hard to predict after five years."
Qin Lan understood the meaning of this sentence.
The current situation is not what Huang Xiaoming expected.
The most intuitive manifestation is that Mr. Han and the men around him are drifting further and further apart.
When Lu Chuan heard this, she was furious again: "Who did I pull? I'm not a man? Then go find Huang Xiaoming! He is your man, right? For him, I would pay tens of millions in liquidated damages without blinking an eye! Unfortunately, he is priceless in your eyes, but you are worthless in his eyes."
Qin Lan closed her eyes in pain. Lu Chuan's words completely broke her defenses.
In order to support Lu Chuan in "Nan Jing", she spent all her family wealth and even starred in the film for free.
As a result, "Nan Jing" was stillborn, and she was the one who suffered the most.
But Lu Chuan ruthlessly ruined herself. In "The Banquet", the character Lu Zhi she played was so ugly that she would wake up in fright even in her dreams.

But when Lu Chuan said a word, she said nothing.
Maybe he really isn't a man.
Qin Lan thought so, turned into the bedroom, packed his luggage, and prepared to leave the apartment.
Lu Chuan didn't stop her, which made Qin Lan even sadder.
Not to mention Lu Chuan's smugness.
Li Chen did not immediately respond to the speculations from the media and netizens.
The best strategy to deal with things that are made out of nothing is not to rush to take them as an example.
Instead, he inadvertently dealt his opponent a fatal blow.
This unexpected opportunity soon came.
Beijing Daily News
"On December 12, the filming of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire was completed, which took nearly three months. Lead actress Liu Yifei shared the news on Weibo and thanked many people in the crew."
As soon as Liu Yifei finished filming "The Hunger Games 2", she flew back to China without stopping.
capital Airport
The unexpected appearance of Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli, mother and daughter, caused a small commotion at the airport.
In fact, the temperaments of mother and daughter are completely different from those of others.
A woman wearing a purple velvet coat and carrying a dark blue square bag, she looks elegant and dignified, with a noble temperament, like a proud white swan.
One of them is wearing a black LV knee-length coat, and her long, beautiful legs are wrapped in transparent stockings, looking white and attractive.
Even though he was wearing a baseball cap and a pair of sunglasses, he was still recognized by passers-by at a glance.
Liu Xiaoli was calm and not surprised at all.
Her daughter, influenced by her since childhood, has never fallen behind in dancing and naturally has an impeccable temperament.
Even after being recognized, Liu Yifei was not flustered. She waved and greeted passers-by who were taking photos in a casual and natural manner.
It was not until she saw her husband whom she hadn't seen for three months that Miss Liu regained her normal self.
Li Chen sat in the car and did not get out. Naturally, the driver and assistant took care of the luggage and miscellaneous items for his mother-in-law and wife.
The car door opened automatically, and Liu Yifei saw a familiar man sitting in the back seat. He was wearing a casual black coat, had sharp features and a warm smile.
She immediately got into the car and sat next to him, and Liu Xiaoli followed closely behind.
Li Chen reached out his hand and helped his mother-in-law, saying with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Mom."
Liu Yifei snorted softly.
Liu Xiaoli glanced at her daughter, chuckled, and said softly, "It's not hard."
Li Chen naturally heard Miss Liu's dissatisfaction, but he still talked to his mother-in-law: "Mom, it's so cold, and Xixi is still showing her thighs. It's beautiful, but you are not afraid that she will catch a cold. If she catches a cold, she will suffer. You feel bad, and I feel bad too."

The corners of Liu Yifei's mouth seemed to be thawing, and Li Chen, who was keeping an eye on all directions, naturally noticed it.
Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes at her daughter and said with a smile, "She only has eyes for you now. How can she listen to me as a mother?"
"A daughter who is married off is like spilled water. I can no longer control her."
"Mom!" Liu Yifei cried out, her eyes looking at Liu Xiaoli, but her hands pinched Li Chen's waist.
Liu Xiaoli continued: "Why, what I said is not right."
Li Chen laughed and said, "Mom, I don't agree with what you said. Even if it's like you said, Xixi listens to me, but don't I still have to listen to you?"
"Even if Dong Yong married a celestial being, he would not dare to disobey the Queen Mother's order, don't you think?"
Liu Xiaoli was so amused by Li Chen that she just shook her head and chuckled.
Liu Yifei, however, stuck to him affectionately: "Flatterer!"
Li Chen laughed out loud.
When he got home, Li Chen's parents were waiting at home with their grandson in their arms.
Liu Yifei took out the gifts for her parents-in-law, and immediately hugged her son whom she hadn't seen for several months, kissing him and smiling.
I wanted to change clothes, take a shower and have dinner with my parents-in-law. But as soon as I entered the bedroom and took off my coat, my husband hugged me and kissed me deeply.
Soon, Liu Yifei's breathing became rapid and she became aroused.
Liu's mother and Li Chen's parents waited downstairs for a long time but they didn't see the two people coming down.
He told the servant to go upstairs and urge his daughter.
The servant was a young girl. She walked to Liu Yifei and Li Chen's bedroom, knocked on the door and said, "Miss, sir, Auntie asked you to come downstairs for dinner."
At this time, Li Chen only cared about the beauty and had no time to eat anything else, let alone pay attention to the servants.
Ms. Liu, who was breathing rapidly, replied incoherently: "I know."
Just the sound made the servant outside the bedroom blush.
The servant was in a panic and ran downstairs as if he was escaping.
He also stammered when he replied to Liu Xiaoli: "Auntie, the young lady said she knew it."
The three old men at the table all glanced in surprise at the servant who couldn't speak clearly.
Liu's mother and Li's mother reacted immediately. Liu Xiaoli felt a little embarrassed, but Li's mother smiled and said, "Don't worry about them, young people. Mother-in-law, let's eat."
Father Li was slow to react, but after a little thought he understood that his son and daughter-in-law had not seen each other for three months, which meant that his son had been a monk for three months.
This is in my own home, and my mother-in-law lives here most of the time. I'm afraid she is used to such situations.
"Yes, yes, mother-in-law, let's eat. We don't have to wait for them. After eating, you should also go to bed early. You must be exhausted after sitting on the plane for more than ten hours."
Liu Xiaoli was helpless and blamed her daughter in her heart. After all, her parents-in-law were still here, and she couldn't wait for people to leave.

But she was young once, and she knew her daughter had had a hard time in the past few months, so she felt relieved after thinking about it.
Liu Yifei ran into the bathroom, sweating profusely. Li Chen put on his clothes and went downstairs feeling refreshed.
Seeing the three elderly people, she didn't even blush, but sat down at the dining table as if nothing had happened, picked up her bowl and chopsticks and said with a smile: "Mom, Xixi is a little tired, let's eat first."
Liu Xiaoli just hummed and didn't ask any more questions.
Only Li's mother glared at her beloved son, but to Li Chen, it was just a superficial glare.
The premiere of "The Chinese Zodiac" was held at the National Stadium.
Li Chen received Chenglong's invitation early.
But when Liu Yifei and Li Chen appeared on the red carpet together, Chenglong suddenly felt proud.
Yesterday, someone broke the news on Weibo that Liu Yifei and her daughter appeared at the Capital Airport.
The two of them appeared together at the premiere today.
Liu Yifei wore a light pink long dress, revealing her shoulders, and looked ethereal, as beautiful and eye-catching as a blooming peony.
Li Chen next to him was wearing a black suit, with a sharp look in his eyes.
As soon as the two appeared, the fans at the scene were immediately excited.
"Xixi! Xixi!"
"Xixi, you are so beautiful!"
"Leo is so cool!"
The fans' enthusiasm made Gu Changwei and Wang Jingdu, who had just walked the red carpet and were signing autographs, look back frequently.
Liu Yifei walked slowly across the red carpet arm in arm with Li Chen, with a gentle smile.
After the two signed their names, they were naturally interviewed by reporters.
"Yifei, you just returned to China yesterday, and you're here to attend the premiere of "The Chinese Zodiac" today?"
The reporters rushed to ask, not knowing whether to ask Liu Yifei or Li Chen first.
Liu Yifei smoothed the hair by her ears with her left hand. The heart-shaped earrings set off her delicate earlobes, making them look small and attractive. Her black and flowing hair naturally fell to one side. She said in a sweet and pleasant voice, "Brother is my best teacher and friend."
"It just makes me feel that my elder brother has always been a person I am very grateful to."
"So I felt that I had to rush back to participate in today's ceremony no matter what, just to let everyone feel my support."
Li Chen nodded secretly while listening, his lovely wife was so kind and simple-minded.
There are countless celebrities present today, ranging from the US Ambassador to China to various celebrities from the literary and art circles.
Sina live broadcast the entire event, and Liu Yifei's appearance and speech immediately won her a lot of favor from netizens.
"Sissi is a beautiful, kind-hearted person who knows how to be grateful. She came all the way back to attend the premiere of Cheng Long and never shirks her charities. No wonder Leo has a special liking for her."

"The Forbidden Kingdom has indeed further increased Sissi's global popularity. Now Sissi is the most famous Chinese actress in the world. Leo has made great contributions, but Cheng Long has also made great contributions. Sissi did this to show her gratitude for her roots."
"Appearance is determined by the heart. Liu Yifei's appearance shows that she is a kind-hearted person."
The words of praise on the Internet are endless like a surging river.
It wasn't until Li Chen spoke next that the focus suddenly shifted to him again.
"Director Li, regarding the person behind the scenes mentioned by Lu Chuan's father on Weibo, some netizens speculated that it was you. In the past week, you have not come out to explain. We all want to know whether this person behind the scenes is you."
Liu Yifei sighed in her heart. Isn’t her husband’s saying just like: People are afraid of becoming famous just like pigs are afraid of getting fat?
Doesn't her company's works have any negative reviews? Which one doesn't? Can she say that it was deliberately smeared by the Internet trolls?
Even though she knew that Yang Siwei had a group of people under her, according to her understanding, these people mainly served her as the boss lady.
Normally, I don’t offend others unless they offend me.
Liu Yifei took Li Chen's arm, stood firmly beside him and spoke first: "I think your question is funny."
"He doesn't even dare to reveal who is behind this? Maybe there is no one, but you want us to answer this fictitious question?"
"There are malicious comments about each of the three major dramas during the Lunar New Year period. If people maliciously speculate about others just because the box office is not good, then Li Chen is definitely the most suspicious."
"Because if we only look at the box office, Rongchen Pictures has never lost."
The Southern Weekly reporter who asked the question did not expect Liu Yifei to be so protective of her husband, and her words were even more sharp.
Li Chen pulled his arm out and took the initiative to hold his wife's hand. His eyes were extremely gentle and he shook his head slightly to signal her not to speak.
Things like beating up people are his forte.
"I won't answer your questions. Sissi has already explained the reason."
"I also want to ask you a question and a question to those netizens who asked me if I was the mastermind behind this."
Many media reporters looked at each other, unable to figure out Li Chen's approach and could only be led by him.
“So far, who has admitted that trolls exist and that they employ trolls?”
"Who else is standing up to accuse the navy of harm?"
"I never take people who are both hypocritical and chaste as seriously as I can."
This sentence made Liu Yifei and dozens of reporters stand there in shock.
