Chapter 884: Magic City; Negative Public Opinion

The sun was shining and the breeze was gentle;

Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, and Shu Chang were dressed casually, with sunglasses covering their faces, and appeared at the Capital Airport with their assistants.

Not to mention, in just 20 minutes, they saw several people in the circle, Yu Dong, Jin Qiaoqiao, Feng Xiaogang, Xu Xun, Yu Zheng...

It's obvious that everyone's destination should be the same. That is, to Shanghai. But they didn't agree.

"Tsk tsk, look, the media reported that Xiaoming's betrothal gift also includes a property worth more than 200 million yuan in Shanghai, which is for the girl's parents..."

In the VIP waiting area, Shu Chang was holding a mobile phone and gossiping with Liu Yifei.

Since this morning, the Internet has been flooded with information about Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying's wedding;

And until this moment, entertainment news is still constantly updating and increasing, and the popularity and topic volume are also continuing to soar;

Even the hot search terms list on Weibo has occupied more than two-thirds of the positions.

It can be seen that the wedding of the two people was really a big deal, and it can be said to be the focus of the entire network; and it is completely worthy of the media's praise: the wedding of the century, the whole nation's attention!

"Let's go, we can board the plane. When we arrive at noon, there will be many acquaintances."

The moment he heard the airport broadcast, Lin Nan reminded Liu Yifei and Shu Chang.

"Okay, let's go."

The two got up and followed with a smile, as if they were going on a picnic.

...

Just like the opening of the Shanghai International Film Festival four months ago, outside the Hongqiao and Pudong International Airports, it can be said that there are a lot of entertainment reporters and paparazzi.

Since yesterday, they have been squatting near the exits of the two international airports so that they can wait at any time.

After all, a wedding with more than 200 tables and more than 2,000 guests is no less large than the closing ceremony of the Shanghai International Film Festival.

Even Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying's wedding specially prepared a red carpet entrance ceremony for all guests, everything is the same as the film festival.

In this way, how can the entertainment reporters and paparazzi not be excited?

Yesterday and this morning, they could wait for the stars outside the airport to boost sales;

At noon, they could follow and report on Huang Xiaoming's bride-picking session, gather at the red carpet ceremony in the afternoon, and enter the venue for a banquet in the evening!

From top to bottom, from inside to outside, Huang Xiaoming made things convenient for everyone;

And in return, of course no one would say even a half word of bad words, only praise and compliments!

After a two-hour flight, when Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, and Shu Chang landed at Hongqiao Airport, it was just 11:05.

"Is that from Hong Kong Island in front?"

Before walking out of the airport exit, Shu Chang saw a group of media reporters chasing him in the distance.

Lin Nan glanced at them, and they were from Hong Kong Island, the Xiang family of three.

"Although the route and positioning of Liu Dehua in the mainland are good, there are also disadvantages, that is, all kinds of people have contacts and friendships."

After laughing and complaining, Lin Nan stopped talking. After all, this is an airport with countless pairs of ears.

The expected scene came, and Lin Nan and the other two were surrounded.

"Director Lin, have you finished filming the scenes of Operation Mekong in the capital? What's next..."

"Yifei, how much gift did you give today? Compare your wedding with Director Lin..."

"Is Shu Chang still on vacation? When will there be an announcement?"

...

With a smile on their faces, they broke through the encirclement with difficulty, and the three of them, along with their assistants, hurriedly got into the airport pick-up vehicle arranged by Huang Xiaoming's company.

At the same time, the insiders who came out later also witnessed the whole process and became the next target of the encirclement.

Another hour later, when Lin Nan and the other two arrived at the hotel, it was really like attending an awards ceremony;

Because the entire hotel has more than 200 guest rooms, and all the guests are insiders.

"I heard that three hotels were booked in total, and there are also many people who have real estate here, so they don't need to stay in the hotel."

Zhou Xun was very idle, and ran to the door to greet Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang.

The few people walked into the hotel, entered the elevator, and went up to the 16th floor. They kept greeting and saying hello along the way.

"I heard that Huang Bo is the best man?" Liu Yifei asked curiously.

"Hey, I saw him this morning. He was the best man like Wu Tian and Wang Baoqiang. There were 12 of them in total. They should be picking up the bride now..."

"Married ones are OK?" Shu Chang was surprised.

The three women immediately started talking, chattering endlessly.

Lin Nan walked aside speechlessly. Huang Xiaoming didn't have many requirements for best men and bridesmaids. He looked at the person, not whether they were married or unmarried.

A few months ago, he had thought of Lin Nan, but because Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were also going to have a wedding, he gave up.

Zhou Xun was really waiting for Liu Yifei and Shu Chang to come over for lunch. After putting down their carry-on luggage, they went to the restaurant.

At this moment, it seemed that there was no other entertainment news on the Internet.

All major portals and Weibo were completely "locked" by the news of Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying's wedding!

...

"Is Lin Nan here?"

In the small auditorium of Shanghai Film Studio, Ren Zhonglun looked at the secretary and asked for confirmation. Han Sanping and Han Jianu beside him also put down their chopsticks after hearing this.

"According to the news online, Director Lin and his team just arrived at the hotel half an hour ago, and they should be having lunch now."

"Well, it seems that the scenes of Operation Mekong in the capital have indeed been completed... You go out first."

After the secretary left, in the large auditorium, only Ren Zhonglun, Han Sanping and Han Jianu were facing a large table of food.

Since Han Sanping retired, the relationship between Ren Zhonglun and him has become a pure old friend and confidant relationship, without competition and conflict.

"Jia Nu, do you want to go to Lin Nan, Yifei and others to play later? Your father and I have something to talk about."

Han Jianu looked at Ren Zhonglun in surprise. Before she could reply, Han Sanping had already spoken:

"It's the same to go to them later. She is already so old. It will only be good for her to be exposed to some negative things, listen more, learn more, and think more."

Hearing this, Ren Zhonglun did not refute, but nodded in approval. Without waiting for a while, he immediately admitted:

"Yes, the filming of "Railroad Tigers" has indeed started in a low-key manner. Jackie Chan is running back and forth between "Kung Fu Yoga" and this movie, and the core starring actor besides him is..."

Han Sanping did not react much, but his face was very ugly.

But Han Jianu was different. She almost choked to death on a mouthful of food. She coughed several times until her face turned red.

"Uncle Ren, he is a bad artist involved in drugs!?"

Looking at Han Jianu, who was stunned and had a huge impact on her worldview, Ren Zhonglun just smiled and shook his head;

He looked like he was looking at his own nephew, and his voice was very light: "Jianu, this is reality."

"Even she knows that he is a bad artist and knows that it is wrong to do this... You are really brave!

It has only been a year since September 29 last year! This means that you were preparing for this half a year ago or even earlier!"

Han Sanping said indifferently, and Ren Zhonglun did not respond. And Han Jianu was still in a state of shock, and had not fully recovered. Shanghai Film Group took the lead in doing such a thing? !

"Since you asked, I won't hide it. You've been retired for two years, so don't worry about it.

Besides, let's talk about this between friends. Which chairman of China Film Group didn't get promoted to the Film Bureau? Why did you retire instead of getting promoted? Sometimes it's not good to be too serious..."

Ren Zhonglun said it very seriously, leaving Han Sanping completely unable to refute.

Yes, he retired himself, so he shouldn't meddle in other people's business...After Yang stepped down, he was promoted to deputy director of the Film Bureau for a term, but he retired directly...And the "resume tradition" of the chairman of China Film Group also ended with him!

Han Jianu opened her mouth slightly, and didn't dare to continue eating. Her old Han was hurt!

"Whatever you want, as long as you can withstand the public opinion...Director Tong, does he know?"

Han Sanping responded "disappointedly", and then asked unwillingly.

There was a moment of silence at the dinner table. "We'll know later."

"Haha, after the release?"

...

Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang and their assistants strolled around the Magic City for half an afternoon. They went shopping, took a ride, ate and drank... Ice cream was the most consumed.

During this time, Luo Jin, Tang Yan and others called and asked if they wanted to go to their house.

Thinking that they were going to meet in the evening, Lin Nan simply refused.

"Okay, we'll be back soon."

Outside the cafe, under the parasol, Lin Nan hung up the phone and then looked at Liu Yifei and Shu Chang who were holding iced coffee:

"We have to go back to the hotel. The red carpet over there will start at 5:10, and we'll be seated at 6:40. The wedding ceremony will be held at 7 o'clock..."

"Ah? It's... 4 o'clock now, so let's go."

Liu Yifei looked at the time and stood up immediately; fortunately, they were not far from the hotel, but they had to go to the Magic City Exhibition Center, which was a long way away.

When Lin Nan and the other two returned to the hotel, there was already a long convoy waiting downstairs, provided by the sponsor Mercedes-Benz!

Many people in the circle were preparing to get on the car and set off. They were all dressed quite formally, and only a few were more casual, mainly simple and comfortable.

"You two go change your clothes, I'll wait downstairs."

Lin Nan was wearing this casual outfit and was not going to change.

But Liu Yifei and Shu Chang definitely couldn't do that. They had to change into a skirt, a simple dress; and on the way to the destination, they would put on light makeup; people with natural beauty are so willful and can dress up casually!

"Director Lin, I'll leave first, bye..." Zhou Xun, dressed in a graceful outfit, waved at Lin Nan.

"Director Lin, see you later."

Yan Danchen is now quite plump, with a more mature smile. After saying hello, she also got into the car.

"Okay, see you tonight."

It is said that all the 96th grade students of the Beijing Film Academy's Performance Department will be here today except Chen Kun, and the leader is Zhao Wei! It seems that Professor Cui Xinqin will also come, but Lin Nan has almost never dealt with her.

Ten minutes later, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang came down.

"Let's go, Lin Nan."

After changing into a dress, Liu Yifei's temperament is indeed different again, and she is much more graceful and ladylike. As for Shu Chang, the change is not too big.

"Okay, let's go!"

…………

Around six o'clock in the evening, the Magic City Exhibition Center was already brightly lit and crowded.

In addition to hundreds of nearly a thousand media reporters, there were so many passers-by, fans, and onlookers that the public security department needed to dispatch police to maintain order on the scene.

Chen Kaige, Chen Hong, Gu Changwei, Jiang Wenli, Xu Zheng, Tao Hong, Feng Xiaogang, Xu Xun, Zhang Jizhong, Hu Jun, Liu Tao...

Chen Kexin, Wu Yuru, Wu Yusen, Xu Ke, Xiang Qianqiang, Chen Lan, Xiang Zuo... Hong Jinbao, Shu Qi... Lin Zhiling, Cai Kangyong...

Wang Zhongjun, Wang Zhonglei, Yu Dong, Jin Qiaoqiao... Yang Shoucheng, Xie Nicholas... Zhao Wei, Wang Fei, Han Hong...

The capital, first-line stars, and big names in the circle alone were too numerous to count at one time, making hundreds of reporters busy, and the shouts at the scene resounded through the sky.

The appearance of a large number of South Korean idol artists even caused an uproar at the scene.

When Lin Nan and the other two walked on the red carpet, Liu Yifei did not hold his hand, but walked shoulder to shoulder with Shu Chang; with the same clothing style, they were really a pair of "sisters" who were not related by blood!

"You three walk slowly."

The shouts behind them attracted the attention of Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang, and many media reporters around them couldn't help laughing.

Because the one waving and calling people from behind was Han Jianu, Director Han!

Han Sanping on the side was speechless, irritable, not a lady at all!

However, Ren Zhonglun was full of smiles, happy to watch the fun, but sometimes he really envied Han Sanping.

After waiting for a few seconds, Lin Nan, Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun walked together; and the three girls were arm in arm, talking and laughing, not caring at all that they were on the red carpet.

"Next is Yunnan or Bangkok?"

"Fly to Yunnan tomorrow morning, and then go back and forth between Bangkok and the Golden Triangle."

Lin Nan responded to Han Sanping, and while talking, several people had already walked to the autograph wall and the photo area in the noisy waves. The flowers here were quite beautiful.

The exhibition center was really big at first glance, with a fairy tale world layout; the core guest seats were at the innermost, and the seats reserved for media personnel were at the outermost.

Even if the seats were on the periphery, it was heard that the meal standard for each reporter was more than 700 yuan, and there was also a red envelope of 1,000 yuan to take, which could be said to be quite luxurious!

"Director Ren, Director Han, Director Lin, Yifei..."

"Director Ren, Director Han, you two are here..."

"Director Lin, Yifei, Changchang, here!"

Yu Dong was greeting Ren Zhonglun and Han Sanping, while Zhou Xun was calling Lin Nan and others;

Lin Nan had specifically mentioned to Huang Xiaoming before that when arranging seats, he should try to let him sit with "his own people".

Although he used the word "try", Huang Xiaoming would definitely make thoughtful arrangements.

Look, there are 10 people at a table, Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, Zhou Xun, Han Jianu, Zhu Yawen, Shen Jiani, Luo Jin, Tang Yan, Huang Bo.

Even Yue Jun, Jiang Xingrou, Guo Fan, Lu Yang, Zhang Yi and others were sitting separately, so that Lin Nan would not feel like his own company was holding an annual meeting at this time!

"Huang Bo hasn't come yet, he is the best man."

People kept coming to greet Lin Nan and everyone, but this did not affect the few people chatting and laughing.

Around Lin Nan's table, there are basically first-tier artists, no second-tier artists.

But at the same time, there are also many Hong Kong and Taiwan filmmakers and stars that he looks down on. He can only say that he has to bear it.

"Here they come!"

With Han Jianu's soft call, several people looked over and saw that the innermost door of the exhibition center slowly opened, and Li Yundi's piano solo sounded next to the red carpet in the back field.

Don't say it, it's quite ceremonial!

But Lin Nan still felt that it was not as good as the style of the Book of Songs as the background when he and Liu Yifei walked into the Great Hall at their wedding!

The guests in the venue stood up one after another, picked up their mobile phones to take pictures and videos, and the media reporters outside even raised their eating tools.

Huang Bo, Wu Tian, ​​Xiao Shenyang, Tong Dawei, Jing Boran, Wanda Xiao Wang, Ren Quan, and 5 people Lin Nan didn't know, all dressed in black suits, formed the best man group; while Li Bingbing, Ni Yi and others were the bridesmaids group.

These people surrounded Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying and walked in. The newlyweds walked on the red carpet with joyful smiles on their faces.

The tailor-made high-end suits and wedding dresses, as well as the dazzling jewelry, coupled with the lavender-like pink and purple lighting effects on the scene, the atmosphere is really amazing!

"That crown is really beautiful! It must be very expensive, right?"

Han Jianu, a money-grubber, caught sight of the crown on Yang Ying's head at a glance. It is mainly made of a large number of natural colored diamonds, supplemented by other precious gems and precious metals, and the key is that it is an antique!

"How can it not be beautiful? It must be expensive! Otherwise, how dare our "leader's wife" ask the brand to give her this crown as a sponsorship? Because she really likes it too much!"

"Xun brother."

Liu Yifei shook her head at Zhou Xun. Some things can be complained privately.

But the words have been spoken and cannot be taken back.

"Free?"

Not only Han Jianu was stunned, but none of Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin, Tang Yan and others present were not surprised.

How can you be so bold as to ask this? Where is your face? You can't say that foreign media praised you as "Asia's top female star" and "Chinese version of Kardashian", so you are really arrogant? !

"Of course, I want people to give it to me for free. Other brands refused on the spot and only borrowed it, not given it to me! Xiao Ming felt embarrassed."

Who is Zhou Xun? A female man! She never speaks halfway, otherwise she will feel uncomfortable!

"Awesome! You are worthy of being the woman who can win Huang Xiaoming!" Han Jianu gave a thumbs up.

At this moment, the lights in the exhibition center changed again, turning into a warm pink tone, and a couple of newlyweds were already standing on the stage.

The best man and bridesmaids were on both sides, and the witness was actually Wu Yusen? Lin Nan was speechless.

But you have to say, Huang Xiaoming's love words in public are really cheesy:

"... Although I am not a prince, I want you to marry like a princess. So I started to find a venue, get sponsorship, check the process, and confirm the details of today with all my colleagues and partners...

When I stood on the stage waiting for my princess, to be honest, there was a moment when I suddenly felt that I should be the prince...

Thanks to the thousands of relatives and friends at the scene, as well as the staff who worked hard for this wedding, and the hundreds of millions of netizens who followed this wedding-

It is your tolerance and love that crowned me and gave me the courage of a prince to bravely hold the princess's hand..."

Huang Xiaoming was still talking above, and Lin Nan was already a little emotional:

It can be seen how much he cares that Huang Xiaoming, such a chauvinist, can say such a long and cheesy words in public!

"Humph, you didn't say these things during our wedding, and you teased me and provoked me! Let me use the microwave... but you didn't take the initiative to say that you are willing to cook!"

Oh my God, it's just an unprovoked disaster! Lin Nan looked at the "unreasonable" Liu Yifei, are you serious?

"Yes, yes, learn from the leader." Shu Chang asked again!

"Well, I'll tell you when I go back tonight..."

In such occasions, as long as she is a woman, her emotional side will basically be revealed, and Lin Nan will of course choose to give in!

Sure enough, Liu Yifei nodded with satisfaction, with a proud and innocent smile on her face.

For half an hour, several people spoke on the stage, including parents of both parties, the master of ceremonies, the witnesses, the best man and the bridesmaid, and finally exchanged rings and kissed...

It's finally over, let's start the meal!

Huang Bo also came back, and as soon as he sat there, he "complained": "Hey, I'm so tired today. Not only do I have to give gifts, but I also have to 'follow' people."

"Then eat a few more bites and try to 'lose' less."

With Liu Yifei and others joking, the wedding banquet officially started.

Looking at the dishes served on the table, everyone couldn't wait to pick up their chopsticks because they were all hungry. Only Lin Nan looked at the wedding menu.

"Tsk tsk, I still think the dishes at my wedding with Yifei are good. The dishes at the State Guest House are all traditional state banquets, with nice names and no fancy words.

Look at these: Good luck and abundance - local smoked fish; Flying in pairs - Magic City sauce duck; Staying together forever - Old Capital City smoked pork knuckle;

Have a baby soon - salted spiced peanuts; Dragon and phoenix auspicious - refreshing dragon beans; Beautiful scenery - lime ice grass; A match made in heaven - fresh matsutake with top-grade wagyu beef;

Deep love - live sea cucumber in soup; Holding hands - safflower potato baked prawns; Full moon and beautiful flowers - October red in fresh fish sauce..."

As Lin Nan reported the names of the wedding banquet dishes and the actual names of the dishes, the other 9 people present couldn't help laughing.

"Then Director Lin, you have to talk to Xiao Ming, he was ripped off, haha..." Huang Bo joked with a smile.

"It's just an auspicious word. If you say it like this, your value will double immediately!"

Everyone talked and laughed while eating.

After about half an hour, the bride and groom, who had changed their clothes, came to toast.

"Director Lin, you go to this table first."

Huang Xiaoming did not pour white wine but chose red wine, because he knew that Lin Nan was not a person who particularly liked white wine, and the aftertaste was too strong after drinking it.

"Congratulations."

"Thank you. Yifei, do you want some too?"

"Sure."

After Huang Xiaoming toasted everyone present, he went to the table next to Yang Mi and Wang Baoqiang.

"It can be seen that Xiaoming is a rare good man. Bless him!" Zhou Xun said with emotion.

"Xun brother, do you think you have rich experience?"

"Fuck you!"

...

When the show ended, it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening.

Most guests either returned to the hotel or went home directly if they had real estate in Shanghai.

And Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang hurried to the airport with their assistants.

Because Lin Nan and Liu Yifei will leave the capital for Yunnan tomorrow morning, it is not good to leave Shu Chang alone in Shanghai, so they simply go back to the capital together at night.

…

Arriving home at around 2 a.m., Lin Nan spent another night alone in an empty room.

At around 8 a.m., when he was still sleeping in, news about "Lost in Hong Kong" and "Charlotte's Troubles" applying for extension keys appeared online, and attracted much attention and discussion in the film industry.

Related movie information and a lot of criticism and negative public opinion about Huang Xiaoming's wedding were listed together in Weibo's hot searches, which was very conspicuous!

… …
