Chapter 385 Return
Because Jiang Heng missed the mainland premiere of "Under One Person", rumors spread all over the Internet, and there were so many insider posts that they could not be deleted.

The best way to calm all this down is naturally for Jiang Heng to return to China and appear in public.

Du Huan called and was obviously unable to bear it anymore.

Jiang Heng didn't want to make things too embarrassing during the New Year, so he immediately said that he would return to China the next day and immediately asked someone to book a plane ticket.

The next day, Jiang Heng boarded a flight back home with his assistant, driver, and bodyguard team.

At around three o'clock in the morning at the Capital International Airport, a group of reporters wearing thick down jackets and carrying cameras were waiting at the terminal's exit.

These people stayed up all night to keep watch, and naturally learned about Jiang Heng's flight information, hoping to take first-hand photos of Jiang Heng returning to China.

It will definitely be big news if it is released first.

"Ugh!"

A reporter yawned and looked at the watch on his wrist. It was three fifty.

According to the flight information, Jiang Heng took the direct flight of Air China and arrived at 4:10.

Given Jiang Heng's identity, he will most likely be traveling in first class and will be out soon.

"Pay attention now and take more pictures!" the reporter said to the photographer next to him.

"Don't worry, I'm a professional! Hey, Director Jiang, do you think he will really go to Hollywood to develop his career?"

"It's hard to say. Being too capable is also a sin! This time it's settled. But if someone comes out again and accuses Director Jiang of monopolizing the market and leaving them with no way to survive, then it will be hard to say!"

"No way. If Director Jiang leaves and the market doesn't collapse, how can the theaters survive?"

"Of course not? The cinema chain is counting on Director Jiang's films to make a profit!"

"If you ask me, it's because those guys are too shameless. They can't make money by making bad movies, so they are jealous of those who make good movies!"

"Who says it's not true? But Director Jiang does make too much money. Three billion US dollars for one movie, which is almost 20 billion RMB, right?"

"Almost. That's too fierce!"

"Awesome!"

"Anyway, in the entertainment industry, I only admire Director Jiang!"

……

The reporters were extremely bored and just gathered together to chat.

Suddenly, I heard a voice announcement that the Air China flight from Los Angeles to Beijing had landed.

Reporters and photographers hurriedly grabbed their equipment, stared at the exit with eyes wide open.

"coming!"

Someone in the crowd said something, and the reporters, who had been able to remain calm, suddenly panicked and subconsciously ran forward.

But the airport was also aware of the situation, and security guards arranged in advance had stopped them.

"Director Jiang, Director Jiang, I'm a reporter from Xinlang Entertainment. I want to ask you if your next film will be co-produced with Hollywood? Will it be shot in the mainland or in Hollywood?"

"Director Jiang, I'm a reporter from China Film Report. Do you plan to develop in Hollywood?"

"Director Jiang, may I ask what do you think of the "monopoly" rumors that have been circulating before?"

…The reporters asked questions frantically, all wanting Jiang Heng to answer their questions.

"Well, first of all, I would like to thank all my friends in the media for staying up so late to pick me up. As for the questions, I will not answer them one by one, but just say a few simple words.

In fact, exporting Chinese-language films overseas and expanding the influence of Chinese culture is what I have always wanted to do and am currently doing.

Because the art form of film has a really huge influence.

Just like many people yearn for America and think it is a "beacon", why?
Where does this impression come from? It largely comes from Hollywood movies.

Just like the films of Li Xiaocheng and Jackie Chan, foreigners' first impression of China is Kung Fu, and this is its positive side.

Therefore, my ideal and goal has always been to show the good side of China to the people of the world, so that they can feel the greatness of Chinese culture and feel the development and changes of China. In this process, where the film is shot is not the most important thing...!"

Jiang Heng did not seem to feel the fatigue of taking an international flight. He spoke energetically for more than 20 minutes, which made the reporters lively.

Some were relieved in their hearts, wow, they didn’t expect Director Jiang to be so talkative. Wouldn’t it be useless if they didn’t bring a recorder?
After the interview, some reporters actually broke down and screamed.

Jiang Hengze, escorted by his team, went to a five-star hotel to rest.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when Jiang Heng woke up. He turned on his mobile phone and found many text messages and QQ messages.

Jing Tian asked him if he was awake and if he wanted to have dinner together.

Because Liu Yifei went to other places with the crew for a roadshow and promotion, it was impossible for her to have dinner with Jiang Heng. She just asked if Jiang Heng was awake and asked him to have a good rest for a few days.

The rest were posted by Du Huan, Yu Dong, Li Xiaoping, Han Sanping and others. Du Huan said that Jiang Heng’s speech at the airport this morning had been reported and the public feedback was relatively positive.

Then he asked Jiang Heng to wake up and reply, and he would bring people to pick up the person.

Jiang Heng naturally had to return to his loyal iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video as soon as possible. After calling Du Huan, he went downstairs at the agreed time, only to see Du Huan coming with a fleet of luxury cars.

"You're making such a big fuss!"

Du Huan chuckled and personally opened the door of the Rolls-Royce Phantom for Jiang Heng, "You are worthy of this in your current status!"

Jiang Heng didn't act pretentiously and got into the car immediately. Du Huan and Cui Zhenzhen followed him, and the latter even poured wine for them.

"How is the company doing lately?"

"Great, great! Those guys couldn't compete at the box office, so they resorted to shady means. But the audiences have sharp eyes, and they all clamor to support us. Lost in Thailand was about to be withdrawn from theaters, but the box office has increased again. Looking at the momentum, it will almost reach 1.5 billion."

Jiang Heng said, "That's quite a lot!"

"Yeah, 1.5 billion. I never thought a low-budget comedy could have such a high box office!"

Jiang Heng chuckled and thought that there would be more comedy films with higher box office in the future!
"What about Under One Person?"

"The premiere was a great success. More than a hundred guests came to support the film. The media also gave it high praise. The official Weibo account of the film was filled with messages of people wanting to see it. The news from the roadshow team was that fans were very enthusiastic wherever they went. Judging from the momentum, the box office will be good!"

Jiang Heng nodded slightly, "That's good. What do the public think of Feng Baobao in the film?"

Du Huan said excitedly, "I love it so much. Many media said that the role of Feng Baobao is unique in the history of Chinese-language films and they highly recognized Ms. Liu Yifei's performance. It is said that at the road show, fans no longer call her Fairy Sister, but Feng Baobao instead!"

"Oh, that's great!"

Jiang Heng said this sincerely, he was really happy for Liu Yifei.

After all, Jing Tian already has several popular roles, and Liu Yifei hasn't had any performances that impressed the audience since she started working with him, so Jiang Heng felt a little guilty.
