Chapter 114 Chinese do not deceive Chinese (Ch 114)

As soon as the call was connected, Xu Zheng’s familiar loud voice came.

“Hey Qi Jia, the release date of Medicine God has been confirmed. It will be released on the 25th of this month. Please help me promote it online.

You are so popular now, it would be a waste if I didn’t take advantage of you, haha.”

“It’s finally going to be released, that’s great! Don’t worry, Brother Xu, I’ll post it right away.”

The long-awaited “Dying to Survive” is finally going to be released, and Qi Jia is very happy.

Although he only plays a supporting role in the film, he has a hunch that this will definitely be a role that will leave a deep impression on the audience.

“Hahaha, OK, thanks bro, I’ll send you the poster.”

Xu Zheng was obviously very satisfied that Qi Jia was giving him face. After saying a few polite words, he hung up the phone.

“It wasn’t easy, but I finally passed the review.” Chen Yuwen said with a smile.

Yes, Qi Jia nodded and sighed as well. Then, he received the poster sent by Xu Zheng.

When he saw it, he was dumbfounded. He saw the five members of the small team on the poster, all of them were grinning from ear to ear.

When taking the photo, he thought it was going to be used as a prop in the movie, but he didn’t expect it to be used as a poster!

Seeing this poster, if Qi Jia had not participated in the filming, he would almost doubt that this was a comedy.

Perhaps guessing that Qi Jia would be surprised after seeing this, Xu Zheng sent another voice message:

“Isn’t the poster nice? It was my idea. The main idea is to give the audience a surprise. Don’t let it slip when you promote it.”

After listening to this, Qi Jia could imagine in his mind that the audience entered the cinema with joy.

After watching the results, everyone felt as if they had lost their souls. This was indeed a big surprise!

When he thought of this, Qi Jia couldn’t help but want to see the audience’s reaction as soon as possible.

So he opened Weibo, uploaded the poster, edited a paragraph of text, tagged the official Weibo account of the crew, and clicked publish.

“Dear friends, the movie I star in, “Dying to Survive”, will be released on September 25th.

I strongly recommend it, and there are many surprises. I hope everyone will support it. “

He now has more than 7 million followers on Weibo, so soon after he posted the message, he kept receiving reminders from the backend.

“You have a new like!”

“You have a new comment!”

“You have a new retweet!”

“XX@ you, go check it out!”

The prompt quickly refreshed to 99+. Qi Jia couldn’t keep up and simply stopped looking at it.

After copying the text, open TikTok, upload the picture, paste and publish it.

Douyin has more fans than Weibo, with more than 9 million already and about to break through 10 million.

Almost every time someone posts, they like, comment, collect, and forward.

From this we can see that the fan activity of Douyin is higher than that of Weibo.

The video is filled with fans’ excited comments.

“The missing persons have returned, and we look forward to Qi Jia’s new work.”

“Woo, is today a holiday? I actually saw my brother posting on TikTok.”

“The tickets have been bought, waiting for the show.”

“+1 I’m planning to take my family there. Judging from the poster, it’s a comedy.”

“There’s so much goodness in this drama. I like your comedy the most.”

Looking at the constantly refreshing comments, Qi Jia smiled and randomly selected a few replies.

“It’s quite high. I personally think Peng Hao’s role is very well played, and the movie also has many famous scenes.”

The fans who were chosen by Qi Jia were all very happy as if they had won a prize.

“Woo woo, I’m sure this is really the New Year, Qi Jia actually turned over my sign.”

Qi Jia smiled and was about to exit when he saw a comment from an acquaintance in the background.

Zhang Ruonan: “I want to watch it! But can you honestly tell me that this is a comedy?”

Qi Jia smiled and replied: “This is a comedy.”

As soon as the message was sent, Zhang Ruonan quickly replied: “Then you said that Chinese people don’t cheat Chinese people.”

Qi Jia: “Chinese people don’t cheat Chinese people.”

Zhang Ruonan: “Chinese people don’t lie to Chinese people (angry expression)”

Qi Jia: “Chinese people do not cheat Chinese people.”

…

After arguing with Zhang Ruonan for a while, Qi Jia picked up another script.

This is a script for a web drama called “The Hidden Corner”.

The story is about Zhang Dongsheng, a math teacher at the Children’s Palace, who faced long-term cold violence from his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

He divorced his wife because she cheated on him, after many unsuccessful attempts to save the relationship.

So he took the opportunity of climbing a mountain and pretended to take photos of the two elderly people, then pushed them down the mountain.

He fabricated the truth of accidental death to avenge the harm the two old men had caused him.

And he hopes this can change his wife’s decision to divorce.

But unexpectedly, this perfect plan was accidentally recorded by three children…

This web series is very short, with only twelve episodes, but Qi Jia watched it very seriously.

The more he watched, the more he liked it, especially the role he was auditioning for, Zhang Dongsheng.

He felt like a madman who was calm to the point of being scary, and he simply loved this role.

In addition, this web drama also invited two powerful actors, Wang Jingchun and Zhang Songwen.

You may be unfamiliar with their names, but you will be familiar with the works they have performed.

Wang Jingchun made his debut in 1998 and played the role of He Mingrong, the owner of a laundry shop, in the 2014 suspenseful love movie “Fireworks in the Daytime”.

In the same year, he won the Golden Bear Award for Best Film at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival for this film.

After twenty years of debut, he has won many awards at home and abroad, and is truly a talented veteran actor.

Zhang Songwen made his debut in 2003 and played the role of Gu Jianhua in the 2017 drama film “Summer in Xixiao River”.

In the same year, he won the KNN Audience Award at the 22nd Busan International Film Festival.

Qi Jia had seen a movie he made called “A Cloud Made of Rain in the Wind” and was amazed by his acting skills.

I just feel that he is a very talented actor who just lacks a little luck. He will definitely become very popular in the future.

“Sister, I’ve also accepted this web drama. Please help me arrange an audition.”

After making the decision, Qi Jia did not hesitate and directly told Chen Yuwen,

“OK, I’ll make an appointment with the other party.”

Chen Yuwen nodded, and called the crew in front of him.

After some pleasantries, she hung up the phone and said to Qi Jia,

“On the 21st, after we go to Beijing to attend an event, we will go for the audition.”

Speaking of activities, this is a big deal, Qi Jia asked,

“By the way, sister, should I prepare for the event?”

“What are you preparing for?” Chen Yuwen glanced at him and asked teasingly.

“Like clothes and shoes?” Qi Jia said.

“No need, just wear your favorite shorts and slippers, haha.”

Chen Yuwen made a joke, and at the end, she couldn’t help laughing out loud.

As a native of Guangdong Province, Qi Jia usually wears whatever is comfortable for him. When he goes out, he usually wears shorts, a T-shirt, and a pair of flip-flops.

Dressed like a landlord, he seemed out of place walking on the fashionable streets of Shanghai.

Chen Yuwen said it several times, but Qi Jia just wouldn’t listen, and after a while Chen Yuwen gave up.

“Is it really possible?”

Qi Jia asked curiously, looking very excited.

“You can’t! Come on, sister will take you out to decorate it.”

Chen Yuwen put on her high heels, picked up her bag, and walked to the door. Suddenly she turned around and said to Qi Jia,

“By the way, you paid for it yourself. You received millions in salary, but you didn’t even bother to hire a male model for your sister.”
