On the night of the premiere, Leon attended the on-site ceremony, mainly because it was not far from home, just half an hour's drive away.

During the ceremony, director Ming Dao mentioned Leon's help in filming the film more than once.

In addition to his superb acting skills, he also corrected many common sense errors in the script and taught everyone the true British court etiquette.

Although Mingdao omitted a lot of information in order to make the characters in the book look elegant and high-end, it is still not as accurate as Leon's personal statement.

Leon is not a prince, but he is definitely more favored by the old lady than most princes.

If the old lady were asked to choose between Lyon and the grandson who married an African American, the old lady would definitely choose Lyon without hesitation.

Having grown up in Buckingham Palace, he remembers palace etiquette quite clearly.

Although he hates these red tapes, after all, he has learned the skills since he was a child and has reached the point where he can never forget them.

So when Leon saw Director Ming's incorrect description of aristocratic etiquette in the script, he immediately corrected it instinctively.

Mingdao also followed the good example, thinking that it would be very trouble-free to have a serious nobleman teach everyone etiquette.

In addition, Leon also told Mengdao what a real rich person looks like.

Today's rich people are generally divided into two categories. One is the old aristocrats like Grandpa Lyon, who run family businesses, and they are often industrial.

The other category is the relatively young "nouveau riche" who usually make their fortunes through virtual industries on the Internet.

In Lyon's view, no matter whether they are old nobles or nouveau riche, they will not treat him badly.

Foreign countries often boast that a certain richest man and Internet giant only wear shirts worth tens of dollars, and only fly in economy class, and that they are frugal and poor.

But you can’t see the millions of luxury watches they have or the private jets parked in the hangar.

The so-called poverty is actually just a marketing design. No rich man on the rich list in the world is sincerely frugal.

Therefore, the vast majority of rich people show off their wealth, but they show off their wealth in different ways.

The methods of the nouveau riche are often superficial, that is, wearing the latest luxury goods, including various supercars.

Leon admitted that he was such a person for a while when he was young, but later he realized that no matter how rich he was, he could not satisfy his spiritual needs.

So he changed to another level, that is, he devoted himself to rapping, and he began to dress as the locals do, that is, sunglasses, T-shirts, and big gold chains.

But because this kind of dress is too vulgar, my sister often complains about her.

This is the type of nouveau riche. As for the old aristocrats, they often dress quite low-key. The clothes they wear look the same as those worn by ordinary people, but in fact they are still luxury brands.

It is the style of the old aristocrats to widen the gap between themselves and ordinary people in a calm way.

They don't show off their wealth in a high-profile way like the nouveau riche, but whether it's the clothes they wear or the things they say and do, they all reveal implicitly at all times that we are not the same kind of people as you.

The above is the analysis Lyon conducted for Mentoring in order to make the human society in the film more three-dimensional and realistic.

During the analysis process, he used himself, his father, his grandfather, his wife, his wife's father and his wife's grandfather as examples, which were very reasonable and convincing.

As for his dear sister Luo Quan, in Lyon's words, she is on another level.

As one of the richest women in the world, his sister controls a fortune worth tens of billions of dollars.

But with so much money, she can spend the same amount of money as ordinary people.

She doesn’t use Chanel, Dior or Balenciaga for skin care products, but the ones she has been using for several years, and they are also special editions in large bottles for families.

It is no exaggeration to say that any of the items he picked out of Mia's bottles would be more expensive than that stuff.

In addition, although she has the privilege of wearing Chanel clothes casually, she always has a few clothes at home, and they will only be replaced when they are worn out or do not fit.

If anyone else had such a privilege, they would probably change their look every day and not wear the same look for a whole year.

Therefore, it has been difficult for Leon to understand his sister's life style.

Obviously she is not a stingy person, and uses the best possible food for others, but when it comes to herself, she saves as much as possible, which is really incomprehensible.

However, it may be because his realm is too high. It is normal for a mortal to not understand it, so Leon did not include the elder sister in the analysis.

In short, Leon, as a supporting actor with a small role, put forward a lot of guiding opinions during the filming of "The Age of Dawn" and made many unreasonable settings of the original film reasonable.

At the same time, it also allowed Mingdao to clarify a suitable way to show off his wealth for this movie.

A commercial film is definitely not suitable for showing off wealth in the old aristocratic way.

The high profile and luxury of the nouveau riche are the best solution. Although the nouveau riche sounds uncomfortable, this is also the character of the female patron's father.

The main person responsible for showing off their wealth in this drama is Gu Li and his family.

Mengdao was full of desire to express when talking about every detail during the filming of the movie.

This is his third directorial work, and the first time he has invested such a high amount of money, so he is full of anxiety and expectations.

Many people in the entertainment industry are crossing over to become directors. Actors, singers, and writers are changing careers to become directors. This is not the first time.

As for the achievements of these people in changing careers, most of them failed, and only a few succeeded.

Mengdao doesn't know if he can succeed, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the situation seems to be good.

The premiere lasted until 11:30. After the premiere, Leon declined Mingdao's invitation to have dinner and got into a BYD on the roadside.

"Is it over?" Luo Quan was lying in the car playing with his mobile phone. When he saw Leon getting in the car, he immediately raised the seat and started the car to go home.

"Sister, you came specifically to pick me up. This really flatters me." Leon sat in the passenger seat and smiled happily.

"Who came specifically to pick you up?" Luo Quan also smiled, "I went to the supermarket to buy things, and you happened to be nearby, so I picked you up on the way."

This time she came out to buy cat and dog food. She has two pets at home, but she has never seen these essential pet supplies. It would make people suspicious after a long time, so she went out to buy some food.

"Well, it seems I'm being too sentimental." Leon pretended to be sad and shook his head.

"Speaking of which, aren't you going to buy a ticket to support your movie's premiere?" Luo Quan asked while controlling the steering wheel without turning his head.

"There's nothing to support. I'm too lazy to go to the cinema to watch it. Let's talk about it after we get a mobile phone."

Leon lay down on the chair and stretched out: "I think there is something wrong with Mingdao."

Luo Quan smiled: "What's the problem? Is it because you think he's short?"

"How is it possible? Who cares about this kind of thing?"

Leon immediately shook his head and said, "I mean, he was a little too enthusiastic about me and the other actors in the crew."

"Hey, all men who engage in artistic creation are like this, as long as they are not sissy."

When Luo Quan said this, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

It would be great if Mingdao was really a sissy, but unfortunately he is not. There are many legends about him in the entertainment industry, but they have not been mentioned to Leon.

But according to common sense, Mingdao didn't dare to do anything to Leon.

After all, with the temper of this little rap king, if Ming Dao really dares to do anything to him by taking advantage of his position, he will probably make it known to the world the next day.

Therefore, Luo Quan is not worried that his brother will suffer.

"Forget it, I still have to be careful."

Leon looked frightened.

It wasn't just because of Mingdao, because he had met similar people before.

Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, if you are too good-looking, you will be easily loved, and the people you like include both men and women.

My sister Luo Quan is the most beautiful in the world and is known to kill all men, women and children.

As the most handsome man in the world, Su Ang is actually no less generous.

Because of this, he was harassed by many men online and offline when he first debuted.

The key thing is that in the environment like the United States, he dare not lose his temper too much, otherwise it will be regarded as discrimination, which is incorrect.

But as a straight man, Leon is actually disgusting when encountering this kind of situation.

The good news is that there have been fewer of these people in recent years.

And since he is in China now, people like him don't have to worry about whether his comments are correct or not.

Of course, he won't rant for no reason, as long as it doesn't offend him, it doesn't matter.

Although Director Ming had a tendency in that regard, what he showed was that he was only a little more enthusiastic towards the male actors like them.

In fact, he is also quite enthusiastic about actresses, and his relationship with them is even better. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is his best friend.

This is why Leon is willing to stay on the crew.

And just as the siblings were riding home, the much-anticipated "Akatsuki 1" was finally released.

There is no doubt that this is a work that will go down in film history.

Although many unreasonable plot and common sense errors have been corrected, it is still a bad movie with chaotic rhythm and scattered story.

But this is also compared with those classic movies in film history. If compared with the bad movies in recent years, the image of "Akatsuki Era 1" will immediately become taller.

As a commercial film, at least it is worth watching.

At least the actors are all handsome guys and beauties, unlike some costumed fairy-tale movies, where they always appear to be the most beautiful and handsome in the three worlds, and then some actors with high looks and completely different looks are invited to play the roles.

Not to mention the crotch-stretching acting, and the ugly appearance, this is a bad movie that has no attraction at all.

In addition to the stunning looks of the actors in "Akatsuki Era 1", the show of wealth also dazzled the hearts of the audience.

Hundreds of top-notch clothes, bags and jewelry, magnificent scenes like the Crystal Palace, and a dazzling array of super cars.

These well-known luxury goods are shown off in "Akatsuki Era 1" in the most naked way.

The original film has been criticized for being full of money worship.

However, Mengniu did not hide its attributes and directly used the two words "money worship" in every aspect of the movie.

For example, Gu Li, one of the heroines, said at the beginning of the movie how luxurious her life is.

Even in Shanghai, the most economically developed city in the country, you will still feel allergic when you go to a relatively average economic area in the same city.

And her family's property is no longer the mere billions in the original book.

It was 2008 when Ming introduced the book. To him at that time, a billion dollars was already considered a super rich man.

It can only be said that poverty limited his imagination, and when Leon came, he asked him not to be so restrained.

We are making a movie anyway, why not be more unrestrained?

Let's just set it at half of her sister's net worth, which is more than 60 billion yuan.

Only a company of this size can be called a wealthy family.

And Gu Li, who has such wealth, will not seem so outrageous after saying such words.

But these are not the most inhumane aspects of this movie. The most expensive thing about it is still Lyon.

This new Oscar-winning actor drives a Lamborghini Poison borrowed from his sister, and every frame he appears in the camera is a waste of money.

No one knows how much Lyon's salary is, but China's salary limit order is only effective for Chinese and foreign Chinese, and does not include foreigners.

Therefore, it is speculated on the Internet that Lyon's salary is probably over 100 million.

The total duration of his appearance in the movie was only five or six minutes.

This works out to hundreds of thousands per second, which is indeed the biggest way to show off your wealth.

However, expensive things have their own reasons. Leon used his impeccable appearance to cause a wave of exclamations from the girls in the cinema.

Many viewers posted on Weibo after watching the movie, saying that watching Leon alone was worth the price of admission.

Of course, there are those who praise and those who criticize.

Many viewers felt that the plot and character relationships of this movie were a bit inexplicable, and the plot development was stilted, and the climax was so bloody that it was embarrassing to watch.

In addition, there are problems with values. It just promotes the supremacy of money, which is not positive at all.

Criticisms such as this have also received considerable support on the Internet.

Soon, the score of "Akatsuki Era 1" came out, and it happened to be stuck at 6.0, which means it passed.

However, it didn’t take long for the rating to drop to 5.0, which means it’s a mixed bag.

A film critic made this evaluation of the film:

As a Tu Yile movie, "Akatsuki 1" did not fulfill its mission very well, and as a bad movie, it was not completely bad. At least in terms of serving the Tao, the crew spent a lot of money.

This also leads to the fact that so much money was spent, but a bad movie was made.

But the acting skills of the actors are pretty good, and it makes people watch it, but after watching it, I realized that the plot is bullshit.

My rating is bad, but not completely bad. "
