641 Forging iron

Her feet were numb at first. After the shower, she felt a piercing pain in her heart. She could barely stand. Behind her glamorous appearance, this sorry state was Jiang SE’s.

The two assistants treated her injured leg while mo Anqi massaged her calf. With every massage, she gritted her teeth and gasped.

“I can’t rest for the next few days.”

Mo Anqi’s heart ached for her as she looked at Jiang se. The movie had to be released while the iron was hot. They had to step up the promotion. Jiang SE’s schedule in the United States was packed for the next few days.

After she was done tidying up, she laid on her bed and looked at her phone. Ever since the award for ” the salvation of God “, she had received many congratulatory messages.

There were messages from Feng Zhongliang, from the PEI family, from nie dan and the rest, from Dai Jia, and even from Zhou Hui. However, the one who received the most was PEI Yi.

She wasn’t in a hurry to call him back at this time. He seemed to know that she was busy, so he always texted her to express his feelings.

From the moment she stepped onto the red carpet, he had already sent her messages.

“My wife is so beautiful!” Along with this message was a screenshot of Jiang se walking down the red carpet. He had made some slight modifications to it. He had cut out the photo of her holding Donald’s arm and added a photo of him in his youth. It was a photo of her holding his arm. He even sounded pleased with himself.

grandma called me and told me that no one would look better in this qipao than you. I think she’s right! When Jiang se received old lady PEI’s praise, he spoke with pride and did not show any signs of being polite or modest.

“Mom and PEI Rui said they saw you.” Along with the message, there was a picture that was probably taken by lady PEI at the scene. At the time, before the lights in the sacred auditorium were turned off, Jiang se was changing her shoes and putting on makeup in the corridor.

There were so many people at the scene, and lady PEI had also seen her. She had even taken a picture of her at that time.

The camera she used to take photos was not bad. Even from a distance, she could see Jiang SE’s face clearly. At that time, she was carrying the microphone on her back and had her head lowered in a serious manner. She did not realize that someone was secretly taking photos of her.

“The high heels are too high. Sese, do your feet hurt?”

the chiffon sewn at the back of the dress is too long, and the heels are high and thin. When you walk, get mo Anqi to help you wring some.

When she wasn’t nominated for the Best Female Lead Award, he was indignant.

in my heart, I’ll give you full marks. Later, I’ll get someone to make you eight or ten trophies. You can make them in whatever you like!

Also, when he saw that “God’s salvation” had finally won the ‘best movie of a century’ award, Jiang se could feel his happiness for her through the phone screen.

“Have you returned to the hotel?”

Before she could finish reading PEI Yi’s message, there was a knock on the door of the hotel.

Mo Anqi, who was massaging her legs, raised her head and looked at Chen Shan.

The hotel that Jiang se was staying at had strict management. One would need a room card to take the elevator. If there were any visitors, they would have to register at the front desk. The front desk would then call to inform them afterward.

However, no one had called her in advance, nor had she received any news of the visitor. Mo Anqi was a little alarmed when someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Before Jiang se could say anything, her phone rang. It was lady PEI.

“Sese, aunt ning has arranged two people to take care of you. They should be here by now.”

As soon as she said that, Jiang se knew who the guests were. She gestured for mo Anqi to open the door. As expected, two middle-aged women in their forties entered the room.

The two of them were each carrying a box. They saw Jiang se lying on the bed at first glance. On the phone, lady PEI was still asking if she had arrived. Jiang se hummed in acknowledgment.

we’re here. Thank you, aunt ning.

“Yi urged me to bring it here.” He still remembered how Jiang se had acted coquettishly to him during the advertisement shoot, telling him that her feet hurt after wearing high heels. This time, when lady PEI brought PEI Rui to America, she had asked her to bring two people who could take care of Jiang se.

“I’ve booked a room for them in the hotel you’re staying in. It’s right next to you.”

Although Jiang se had an assistant by her side who could arrange her work and personal affairs well, when it came to taking care of her, she might not be as meticulous as the two people lady PEI had brought from China.

Lady PEI instructed,

“You’ll probably be busy with work for the next few days, so PEI Rui and I won’t disturb you. Rest early after you’re done packing. When you’re done, come stay with us for a few days. Grandma misses you very much.”

Jiang SE’s throat was choked with sobs as she agreed in a soft voice.

After the two of them washed their hands and came out, there was no room for Chen Shan and the other two to treat Jiang SE’s foot wound. Compared to the cautious assistants, the two people sent by lady PEI were clearly much calmer.

The two of them introduced themselves and quickly treated the wound on Jiang SE’s foot. They even massaged her calf with a comfortable amount of strength. It was not too unbearable, but it was also not too light that she would not feel anything when massaging it.

She returned PEI Yi’s call and was happy that he was so concerned about her. Although the injury on her foot was only a small matter, the fact that he remembered her unintentional complaint in his heart was enough to prove his sincerity.

Following that, the publicity in the United States went smoothly because ” the salvation of God ” had won an award. On the 26th, ” the salvation of God ” was scheduled to premiere at the Hollywood Grand Theater.

Before the movie was released, it had already gained a lot of attention due to all kinds of gimmicks. First, it was because of the change of the female lead. Then, during the ‘century-old filmmaker’ campaign, major gambling networks were one-sided and did not think that ‘God’s salvation’ would win. In the end, the movie unexpectedly won the award.

In addition, the investors had invested a lot of money in publicity. The media, magazines, news, and websites were all related to God’s salvation, and the audience was full of curiosity about the movie.

On the day of the movie’s premiere, Tao Tao, Yu Zilin, and other local media reporters also attended the ceremony. The film company had spent a lot of money to decorate the hall in front of the Hollywood Grand Theater to look like the scene in “God’s salvation “. Donald appeared in the hall as Andre in the movie, and Jiang se appeared in her” demonized “appearance. Cesare and the main cast members of the film crew were dressed as Knights. They brought surprises to the media, Film Critics, and fans. It also caused the press conference for the movie to be in a high mood. There were screams.

With the ‘centuries-old filmmaker’ award for the best film, the suspicions that people had before the movie’s release regarding Chesare’s bold use of Jiang se in “God’s salvation” were completely dispelled.

The film was released in 2d, 3d, and IAX3d in various forms. It was announced that it would be fully released in all the major theaters in North America. The atmosphere at the venue was very lively, and with the photos released by the major Chinese media, it attracted more and more expectations from local film fans.

Taking advantage of her work, Tao Tao also read the English version of God’s salvation first in the United States.

Before she had watched the movie, she had already heard many praises about it. Some people from the media had praised the movie for its grandeur; There were also some who praised the movie from the perspective of ‘century-old filmmaker’ members, saying that the costumes were very particular and that the colors were very beautiful.

There were also people like shupeien, who deeply analyzed the film’s significance and praised the film’s special effects for exceeding the current level of the film’s special effects.

However, those praises were not as meaningful as actually seeing and feeling it.

The shock they felt when they first watched the trailer was less than one-tenth of the shock they felt when they watched the actual movie. Those thrilling scenes, in the best screening Hall experience, were more stimulating to the senses. Every scene was so exquisite that it made people reminisce about it again and again.

The ferocity of the ‘devil’, the hypocrisy of Andrew, and the’ purity ‘of Lannie in the early stage and the’ evil ‘in the later stage formed a sharp contrast.

Even though the dialogue was all in English and some actors had deliberately spoken with an accent, it was a little difficult for Tao Tao to listen. Perhaps she could not fully understand the meaning of every word, but the actors ‘performance had completely brought every audience into the play.

Before the release of the movie, some people still doubted the authenticity of the award. But after the release of the movie, the power of the movie was enough to make these doubts disappear.

On the 28th, the North American box office of ‘the salvation of God’ reached 107 million Yuan. This number broke the previous United States Box office record and jumped to first place.

With the movie’s reputation soaring, it would only attract a surge of people to watch the movie.

...

Once ‘the salvation of God’ became popular, even those who were not fans of chessaray or the two main actors and did not pay much attention to the movie at the beginning would be curious about the topic of ‘the salvation of God’ and go to the cinema.

Such a high starting point was like a shot in the arm for the investors of God’s salvation. Newspapers and magazines were all reporting on this grand event.

They had achieved great results overseas, but the film fans in China were even more enthusiastic.

The movie had yet to be released, but the advance ticket sales had already broken the record. After the trip to the US was completed, Jiang se followed the production team back to the country on the 29th to promote ” God’s salvation ” again. The domestic advance ticket sales had already reached nearly 600 million Yuan!

Professionals in China had already predicted that after the release of ” the salvation of God “, it was very likely that it would be difficult to get a single ticket in a short period of time, which undoubtedly made people even more curious about the movie.

While Jiang se was busy with work, Tao cen had just returned from France.

She got what she wanted. After a few months of hard work, she got the endorsement deal for Carolus shampoo in China. In the past, such news might have occupied the domestic news page and become a hot topic, bringing topics to Carolus shampoo and Tao cen herself.

Being able to snatch the endorsement deal for Carolus from Xia Chaoqun was enough to prove Tao cen’s ability. In the past, Tao cen would have been overjoyed and regarded this as one of the achievements he had made over the years.

However, in the face of the overwhelming news that ” the salvation of God, starring Jiang se, ” had won the ‘best movie of a century’ award, Tao cen was in a rare mood.

Her contract with Carolus only took up a small part of the news headline, and few people clicked on it.

Century Galaxy was also cooperating with the publicity work for ” God’s salvation. it was as if all the glory that Tao cen had received in the past had been transferred to Jiang se.

...

This was how realistic the industry was. Tao cen’s return to the country was no longer the biggest topic in the short term. When rohault and the company’s higher-ups obviously valued Jiang se more than he did; When Chairman Luo Yin was willing to keep Jiang se with his shares while Tao cen had to sign a long-term contract in order to gain the company’s attention, Tao cen felt even more indignant.

In a way, she was the same kind of person as Jiang se. Her original intention for entering century Galaxy was very clear from the beginning. She had come for the ‘best’ and ‘most outstanding’ position as a ‘successor’.

She did not stay in century Galaxy just to be compared to others. Even though the company had favored her more when it came to splitting the shares among the artistes in her long-term contract, Tao cen was still upset when she compared this ‘honor’ to Luo Yin’s shares in keeping Jiang se.

She personally made a call back to the company, wanting to see Luo Yin.

ROBIO picked up the phone. After recognizing her voice, he first congratulated her on getting Carolus’s endorsement deal. Then, after knowing her intentions, he tactfully tried to reject her.

the weather has turned cold recently. Mr. Luo has not been feeling well for the past few years. The doctor advised him to go abroad to recuperate for a few days after New Year’s Day. He may not have time to see you.

Tao cen, on the other hand, insisted on meeting Luo Yin. In the end, Luo ao had no choice but to convey her opinion to Luo Yin. He arranged for the meeting to be held in Luo Yin’s mansion.

After returning from France, Tao cen rushed to Luo Yin’s house as soon as she got off the plane. When she was led into the hall by the servants, Luo Yin squinted his eyes to look at the once most dazzling Pearl in the Galaxy of the century. She was wearing high heels and a black cashmere coat. Before she entered, she had taken it off and thrown it to the servant by the door.

Her face could not hide the fatigue from the long journey, but her eyes were still bright and moving, making him recall the first time he had seen Tao cen.

The heater was turned on in the hall, and the fragrance of tea filled the air, adding to the warm atmosphere. Luo Yin had recently been fascinated by the Way of Tea. On the tea tray on the coffee table, the boiling water made a ‘Gu Gu’ sound, and the steam rose up, making the luxurious room look like smoke. It made the large space less cold and oppressive, and more real.

“You’re back? I heard from rohault that you’ve secured the endorsement deal for Carolus?”

On Luo Yin’s face, it was as if he couldn’t see the shadow of the two most important female stars fighting for endorsements and resources. Instead, he was smiling.

His hair was neatly combed, and he looked like he was meeting a close friend. He was dressed in casual clothes and had a thick blanket on his legs.

Tao cen guessed that Luo Yin had probably already guessed her intention for coming.

before you came, I was already preparing tea leaves and boiling water. You came just in time.

He happily brewed the tea himself. His every movement was neither fast nor slow, and he had no intention of summoning the servants to help. Tao cen wanted to pour him a cup of water but was stopped by Luo Yin. It was only when the cup of tea was handed to her that Luo Yin said meaningfully,

“This cup of tea that I personally brewed, others can’t afford to drink it, but you can!”

Tao cen was stunned for a moment before he chuckled.
