Chapter 651: Aftermath

Views:

When Jiang Se wore this pair of earrings at the "100 Years of Filmmakers", she attracted a lot of attention and inquiries. With her current identity revealed, the status of this pair of earrings, which she wore personally, has doubled. Celebrities and wealthy ladies are proud to wear the same pair of earrings as her.

Hong Kong China's performance is very good. The first season of "Tears of the Mermaid" was sold out as soon as it was pre-ordered, which shows the effect of Jiang Se's appeal.

Hong Kong China was naturally very happy about this. "I received a call earlier. It was Zheng Shirong who called me personally. He said that in addition to the pair of earrings you wore during the previous event, Hong Kong China also wanted to customize a pair of 'Mermaid's Tears' for you."

"There have been quite a few orders for Federer watches, and the number of people asking about the Leopard sports car at ELYSEES has broken the record." These data are real to Jiang Se. In addition, she has been endorsing Adeele for many years. The main models sold by Jiang Se every year have always been popular and have been sold out several times.

The announcement of Jiang Se's marriage will obviously benefit her. The fact that Xia Chaoqun was able to sign the contract with Melovin so quickly is more or less related to this.

"In addition to these," Mo Anqi sat down, "'God's Redemption' also performed well at the box office."

As it happened to be the New Year's Day holiday, when movie fans were choosing movies to watch, "God's Redemption", which won the "Best Film of the Century" award, was naturally the first choice. Many people who had not originally planned to watch the movie also bought tickets to enter the cinema out of curiosity because of Jiang Se's fame this time.

In general, the timely announcement of Jiang Se's marriage brought her many benefits.

"Not only is Feng Nan's matter no longer mentioned, but even Tao Cen's departure from Century Galaxy is not discussed by many people."

Mo Anqi mentioned these two things with a bit of gloating.

Tao Cen deliberately mentioned the termination of his contract with Century Galaxy when "God's Redemption" was released last night. Everyone knows what he was thinking.

Unfortunately, not only did she fail in the end, but her business was also hit by the next two big waves and didn't make any splash at all. For a star like her, it was the beginning of her business, and it didn't get off to a good start. Tao Cen must have been very depressed at this time.

"I've visited her website, and there aren't too many people leaving messages. Most of them are her fans who have been following her for many years." Compared to the popularity of Tao Cen's previous news, Tao Cen's data last night was very "meager". The news only occupied a corner of major media, and few people discussed it. Netizens' enthusiasm was focused on Jiang Se.

After chatting about these gossips, Mo Anqi mentioned business again:

"Sese, after your marriage was announced, the media called and wanted to interview you. Sister Xia meant that although Brother Pei mentioned the marriage, you haven't made a statement yet. Instead of being interviewed one by one, it would be better to arrange a live broadcast of the press conference." The bigger the show, the more beneficial it is for Jiang Se's exposure, especially during the period when her new work is being released. It can also help to hype up "God's Redemption" again.

Jiang Se nodded. Xia Chaoqun always planned the work arrangements very well, and she rarely interfered.

The two people divide the work and cooperate with each other, and do not interfere with each other's decisions. Such tacit understanding and respect can make the relationship between the two people stronger.

"But I told Sister Xia that the reporter who asked the rude question last night was from Tianxia Entertainment. You said you would not accept interviews from this media outlet, so you won't invite them then."

As soon as Mo Anqi finished speaking, Jiang Se responded and reminded:

"But I've been in the spotlight lately, so you guys better be careful and don't get caught."

She is at the center of public opinion at this time and is already attracting a lot of attention. After the marriage is announced, she must be even more careful and not make any mistakes.

It is inevitable that praise will arouse resentment. Behind the glory, not only does it represent herself, but her every move is also related to the Pei family.

Mo Anqi was reminded by her, her expression became stern, and she said seriously:

"I see."

The aftermath of the marriage was much more severe than Jiang Se had imagined. In addition to the products she endorsed being brought up, photos of her several trips in recent years and a small number of street shots were also exposed.

The public seems to be more strict with her than before, but fortunately Jiang Se does not have much black history. As a star, Jiang Se is quite restrained and obedient.

She is a strict person and rarely indulges herself.

The media has never photographed her going out for fun.

As for the family, Xia Chaoqun had already taken care of it, and the information released by the media was limited. All we knew was that she had been beautiful since she was a child, and was praised by the neighbors all the way around her. She didn't say much.

His academic performance improved by leaps and bounds in his senior year of high school, and he was admitted to the best university in the imperial capital.

After entering the entertainment industry, his performance in several movies as a supporting actor was remarkable. He did well in the debut movie "Rescue Operation", and with his outstanding looks, he was soon promoted by the famous director Zhang Jing'an. Later, in "The 99th Love Letter", he was recognized by director Zhao Rang with his extremely serious attitude, laying the foundation for the two to collaborate on two consecutive movies.

There is no director in the circle who has worked with her who doesn't dislike her. Although she has been in the industry for many years and has worked with many people, she has no scandals. As Pei Yi said, her boyfriend was announced at the opening ceremony of "Beijing Events" that year.

The movies she has participated in have all received high praise, and most of the movies she has starred in in recent years have become classics, which has helped her accumulate more and more fans.

A whole day passed, and the public was still keen on discussing Jiang Se's marriage. Some expressed blessings and some expressed envy. Except for some people who still couldn't believe it, most people who originally had no special attention to Jiang Se also developed some good feelings towards her because of her marriage to Pei Yi.

"God's Redemption" was a huge box office hit on the first day, which naturally added icing on the cake to Jiang Se's fame.

Tao Cen had already received the news last night. She has been in the circle for many years and has accumulated a lot of good relationships. Most of the people around her have good relationships with the staff in the media industry.

When the Pei family intended to announce their marriage, she learned the news earlier than the netizens who found out later.

When the Chinese News Department passed on the news, she knew that something was wrong. She also knew that if she chose to leave Century Galaxy at this time, not only would she not be able to hinder "God's Redemption" as she wished and curb Jiang Se's development, but it might also make her departure from Century Galaxy appear a bit depressed.

But once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Things have come to this point. Even though she knows the consequences, she is powerless to reverse it.

If it was about other things, she could still think of a way to suppress Jiang Se.

Even when the "God's Redemption" team, which was very popular abroad, entered China, she was able to find ways to restrain them on her turf.

But she had no way to stop the news from appearing. The Pei family was not something she could touch. She was powerless to stop the Pei family from announcing their marriage. She watched helplessly as it happened.

A whole day passed and she still hadn't recovered. Song Yi was extremely anxious and tried her best to make a name for herself in the headlines about Jiang Se. However, it was too difficult to get a good piece of news at this time when all the attention in the nation was on Jiang Se.

Even if a shocking scandal were exposed at this time, in the face of the Pei family's marriage, the higher-ups would ask the media below to suppress it and not cause trouble for the Pei family at this time.

This is the power of the Pei family, and she can do nothing about it.

Man proposes, God disposes. She was fully prepared and had everything ready, but the east wind blew towards Jiang Se.

Some things that I couldn't understand before, now I understand them clearly.

No wonder at the launch of the Leopard sports car, Mrs. Zhou, who had promised to achieve sales for her and suppress Jiang Se, suddenly became stage frightened and would rather be ridiculed than stand out at that time.

Mrs. Zhou and others who were remembered by Tao Cen at this time were not feeling well either.

Jingtai Real Estate's recent development has been restricted in many ways. Every new regulation and policy issued is unfavorable to Jingtai. Mrs. Zhou's husband has been worried for more than a year. Jingtai's stock has also been falling, causing the couple's wealth to shrink significantly.

With all these things happening at home, Mrs. Zhou naturally had no intention of being in the limelight anymore. After all, all this trouble was caused by her being too high-profile in the first place.

When ELYSEES met Mrs. Pei at the car show that day, Mrs. Pei mentioned that Jiang Se was her daughter-in-law who had not yet married. Mrs. Zhou also mentioned it to her close friends afterwards. Mrs. Weng and others refused to believe it at first, until midnight last night on New Year's Eve, when the Pei family announced the marriage, which shocked Mrs. Weng and others.

No wonder the Zhou family hasn’t been doing well over the past year, and even using connections can’t make up for it.

At that time, I thought Mrs. Zhou's words were just to scare everyone, but now I know it was true.

Mrs. Weng could not sit still at that time. Although the ELYSEES Auto Show was more than a year ago, and she was not the one who took the lead in opposing Jiang Se's endorsement of the ELYSEES series of sports cars, she was involved after all. The Zhou family's previous experience was still there, and she was also afraid of affecting her husband's company. Therefore, after the news was confirmed, she made a high-profile phone call to order the Leopard sports car endorsed by Jiang Se.

The promotion of "God's Redemption" was a great success. In just one week, the box office in China surpassed that in North America, reaching 1.5 billion.

Huaying, which introduced this film, signed a contract with the investor at the time for a very low share of the profits. According to the regulations, the box office had to reach 2 billion before the share could be increased.

Judging from the current trend, the final box office of "God's Redemption" may not only be 2 billion, but may even be more.

Initially, the investors did not have high hopes for "God's Redemption". After replacing the female lead, they just hoped that the movie would not lose money.

But who would have thought that the film would be so outstanding, and with the actors' low pay, every penny of the huge amount of money invested was used on the film, which not only amazed the "filmmakers of the century", but also amazed movie fans all over the world.

Cesare thus joined the ranks of legendary directors, Donald added another memorable work to his glorious resume, Jiang Se's fame and status at home and abroad reached a new level, and the investors Borgia and Huandao gained both fame and fortune.

In addition to the early publicity, the money earned by domestic Chinese films in the later stage is also a considerable amount. Nie Dan and others plan to use "God's Redemption" to create momentum, list the company, and expand its scale.

In late January, twenty days after the release of "God's Redemption", due to good word of mouth and adequate publicity, the film's box office has reached 4 billion, breaking the Chinese film box office record. It also added a beautiful resume to Jiang Se's acting career, which is enough to prove her box office appeal.

At this moment, Jiang Se has finished his work and is now reviewing and making preliminary preparations for his marriage with Pei Yi.

The Pei family just announced the marriage of their eldest grandson this year. As the public's attention has yet to subside, Mr. Pei also intends to take a family photo and release it to the public.

A few years ago, she accompanied Old Lady Pei back to Shanghai and met the relatives of Pei Yi's maternal grandfather. The rules that Jiang Se learned from her early birth in the Feng family made many elders who had been skeptical before meeting her very accepting of her.

After the marriage was announced, she also had to take on the responsibilities of the Pei family's hostess, and accompanied Old Lady Pei, Mrs. Pei and others to receive guests who came to the Pei family to pay New Year's greetings during the Spring Festival and discuss the wedding process.

Her wedding with Pei Yi was in September, so time was very tight and there were too many things to prepare.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Feng Zhongliang came to the Pei family to pay New Year's greetings and happened to hear Old Mrs. Pei mention the house that Pei Yi was going to renovate after he got married.

Jiang Se and Pei Yi were both busy with work before, and the house was chosen by their elders in the family. Old Mrs. Pei had been preparing for this day for a long time. When Pei Yi was not even an adult, the Pei family had already prepared several houses for him for his future marriage.

The chosen wedding house is located in the southern part of the imperial capital, a place that cannot be bought even if one has money. It has strict security and the house is very large. It has been vacant for many years and is only now being prepared for renovation.

"Take advantage of this time to see what kind of design you like and communicate in advance so that we can start construction."

The decoration is now underway and should be completed before the wedding.

Jiang Se glanced at Pei Yi. Pei Yi should know what she was thinking.

The house is their future home, and she also wants to contribute, so she plans to pay for the decoration.

Pei Yi squeezed her hand. She seemed to have made a lot of money over the years since she entered the entertainment industry, but in fact she also spent a lot. Pei Yi never asked how much money she had in her name, and he regarded it all as her own pocket money.

But Pei Yi could probably still calculate how much money she had.

After her agency divided up her endorsements and film remuneration, she had little left. It was not until last year that she renewed her contract with Century Galaxy, acquired company shares, and received dividends that she became much more comfortable.

He had heard Mrs. Pei mention the budget for house renovation before. Although Jiang Se could afford the amount, he was reluctant to use Jiang Se's money. Just as he was about to speak, Feng Zhongliang, who was talking to Mr. Pei, turned his head and said with a smile:

"Have Ayi and his family chosen the style of their wedding room?"

No one expected that he would be interested in such a topic. Mrs. Pei was stunned for a moment, then she laughed and picked up some draft papers:

"His mother contacted several designers for him and produced several drawings. They are all here. Xiao Feng, take a look."

Feng Zhongliang's personality shouldn't have interested him in these things, but Mrs. Pei handed it to him politely. She thought he would postpone it, but he actually took it and looked at it carefully:

"Xiao Ning's vision is naturally good." He didn't even raise his head:

"I also watched Ayi grow up together. I can't watch him get married. Besides, I like Sese very much. Since she calls me grandpa, she is my granddaughter. After the plan is decided, I will pay for it."

After Feng Nan was reborn, she was no longer his granddaughter in name, but in Feng Zhongliang's heart, he had to keep an eye on his granddaughter until she got married.

His words stunned the Pei family. Although Feng Zhongliang had always been close to the Pei family and had frequent contacts with them, no matter how much he liked Pei Yi, no one expected that he would cover all the decoration costs. After all, this was not a small amount. (To be continued)
