Chapter 1228: Money Power Sweeping the WorldTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jun Shiling had never said anything without basis. Since he had said so, it should be close.
Now, Xia Wanyuan felt that the question just now was meaningless.
If Jiang Yun became the head of the Jiang family, she would definitely have to pay the price. At least the possibility of her and Xia Yu being together would be completely cut off.
On the other hand, a few people stood awkwardly.
Lin Yi had fewer friends in Beijing. In addition, Stone always wanted to see Brother Xia Yu. Every few days, Lin Yi would bring Stone to gather with Xia Yu.!!
Jiang Yun and Lin Qingdai were successfully engaged. Lin Qingdai treated Jiang Yun very well and almost granted her every request. The weather was good today, so the two of them agreed to go shopping.
Unexpectedly, after turning a corner, the few of them collided.
Seeing Jiang Yun, Xia Yu subconsciously stopped in his tracks. His gaze landed on Jiang Yun and Lin Qingdai’s hands.
Lin Yi sensed that something was wrong and looked at Jiang Yun. Although this was the first time she had seen Jiang Yun, she had a feeling that this person was the name of the woman Xia Yu had been calling after his fever.

Looking at Jiang Yun’s neat short hair and valiant suit, Lin Yi was a little surprised. She did not expect Xia Yu to like such a girl.
In the end, Jiang Yun was the first to speak. “What a coincidence.”
Xia Yu nodded, his expression unreadable. “Mm, congratulations on your engagement to Mr. Lin.”
“Thank you.” Jiang Yun subconsciously pursed her lips and glanced at Lin Yi. “Is this your girlfriend?”
Lin Yi was about to say no when a hand came from her shoulder. Lin Yi turned around in surprise. Xia Yu had already pulled her into his arms, but his eyes were fixed on Jiang Yun. “Yes, her name is Lin Yi. We met on the battlefield.”
A perfect smile appeared on Jiang Yun’s face. “She’s very beautiful. You’re very compatible.”
“Mm,” Xia Yu replied calmly.
At this point, there was nothing else to say. Jiang Yun looked at Lin Qingdai. “Let’s go back.”
“Okay.” Lin Qingdai was not stupid. How could he not see the undercurrent between the two of them?
However, to a mature gentleman, not asking about his partner’s past was the greatest respect for his partner.
Lin Qingdai left with Jiang Yun. No matter how silent Jiang Yun was, he did not ask further.
At the corner of the street, Lin Yi was held in Xia Yu’s arms for a long time, so long that Lin Yi felt a little uncomfortable. She looked up and saw Xia Yu in a daze. A hint of bitterness flashed across Lin Yi’s heart. “Xia Yu, Miss Jiang has already left.”
Only then did Xia Yu come back to his senses. He retracted his arm. “I’m sorry, just now…”
“I know. She’s your ex-girlfriend.” Lin Yi had an indifferent smile on his face. “I understand, so I lent you myself for the time being.”
“Thank you.” Xia Yu nodded slightly and walked forward.
Behind her, the smile on Lin Yi’s face gradually faded. Stone held Lin Yi’s hand and shook it twice. “Sister Lin Yi, why are you and Brother Xia Yu unhappy?”
Lin Yi lowered her head and stroked Stone’s head. “Maybe the weather is too hot. Let’s bring you to eat ice cream, okay?”
“Okay!” Stone was happy to hear about ice cream. He skipped after Xia Yu.
Lin Yi watched from behind. Xia Yu smiled and spoke to Stone, as if nothing had happened.
However, Lin Yi knew that Xia Yu was definitely not as indifferent as he appeared.
Just as Lin Yi was deep in thought, her phone suddenly rang.
Lin Yi pressed the answer button. “Sister-in-law, yes, okay.”
Half an hour later, Lin Yi met Su Yueran at the coffee shop.
This was the first time Su Yueran had seen Lin Yi. Her first impression of Lin Yi was that Lin Yi’s bright eyes seemed to be filled with vitality.
Su Yueran handed a card to Lin Yi. “Your brother prepared this for you. You haven’t returned to China in a long time. You probably have a lot of things to spend money on.”
Lin Yi did not take it. “Thank you for his kindness, but I don’t need it. The company I work for pays me every month.”
Su Yueran did not force her. She asked Lin Yi a few questions in concern and casually mentioned, “I heard that you returned to China with Xia Wanyuan’s younger brother, Xia Yu?”
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. “Is there a problem?”
“No.” Su Yueran smiled. “Your brother is just concerned about you. If you like that boy, we can help you. After all, the Lin family and the Xia family are still very compatible.”
A hint of displeasure appeared in Lin Yi’s eyes. “My parents left China with me a long time ago. There’s no need for me to follow the Lin family’s parents’ orders.”
Lin Yi’s meaning was obvious. There was no need for others to criticize her marriage. She had left the Lin family for so many years. She did not understand why Lin Qingyuan and Su Yueran were putting on airs now.
Su Yueran’s expression did not change and she still had a dignified smile. “Your brother is just concerned about you. Since you’re unwilling to mention this, let’s not talk about it anymore. Come, order whatever you like.”
“No need. Is there anything else? If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first. I still have something on at the company.” Lin Yi and Su Yueran were not familiar with each other, and she was not interested in acting with Su Yueran here.
“No more.” Su Yueran stood up. “Then I’ll send you out. If you have any difficulties, just call me.”
“Okay, thank you,” Lin Yi replied distantly and left the cafe.
Behind her, a dark glint flashed across Su Yueran’s eyes as she watched Lin Yi leave.
So what if I sat in the position of the mistress of the Lin family? Didn’t no one care about me? Now, even a little girl could treat her casually.
After Lin Yi left the cafe, she went to the hotpot restaurant on the street beside. There, Xia Yu was fighting with Stone for the meat in the pot.
A smile subconsciously appeared on Lin Yi’s face as she walked towards Xia Yu.
“You’re here?” Xia Yu looked up. “Sit down and eat. After eating, I’ll bring you to the museum in the afternoon.”
“Okay.” Lin Yi smiled from the bottom of her heart and looked at Xia Yu with a glint in her eyes.
Xia Yu looked up as if he had sensed something, then lowered his head as if nothing had happened.

The movie “Eldest Princess” continued to increase its box office and reputation in the country, but the response in the international market was average.
The main reason was not that movies were liked, but that there were no cinemas in the international market.
It had always been difficult for Chinese movies to obtain the right to screen abroad.
Because capitalists pursued profits, in the past, when Chinese movies were released, the cinemas basically lost money, so later on, the cinemas did not dare to release Chinese movies anymore.
Hence, the overseas box office of “Eldest Princess” was much lower than its local box office.
The only explanation for this image on the Internet was that Xia Wanyuan had increased the box office herself.
[As expected, the movie’s true colors were revealed the moment it was released. In the past, she even said that her box office was amazing. Now, I can see the truth. Other than the local box office, the box office outside is so low. It’s obvious that she bought it domestically.]
[Who asked her husband to be the richest man? She has no choice. He’s amazing.]
[She’s so rich. Can’t she go somewhere else to harm others? Must she come to harm the entertainment industry? It’s shameful to spam buy the box office. If she does that, get out of the film industry.]
Because the netizens’ voices were too strong, in the end, there was even a mocking topic on the Internet called “So what if Xia Wanyuan is rich”.
Under the topic, it was all about buying Xia Wanyuan’s box office with money. Such behavior should be blocked by the international film industry.
Because the popular science video Xia Wanyuan had made was too popular on the Internet, she had many anti-fans now. Soon, the topic “So what if Xia Wanyuan is rich” rose to the top ten.
The domestic netizens were furious when they saw this topic. They ran over to scold the foreign netizens and were even banned.
Just as everyone was arguing, Xia Wanyuan’s account on the Internet suddenly updated.
@wanxia-yuan: “‘Eldest Princess’ will be released in twenty cinemas in America tomorrow morning. Everyone is welcome to watch it.”
[I’m dying of laughter. Are you living in a dream? Which cinema is so blind to actually release such a movie that will definitely lose money?]
[ The person in front, have you ever thought that Xia Wanyuan is talking nonsense? Who would go watch China movies for no reason? ]
[I’m speechless. I wouldn’t watch such a trash movie even if you threw the money on the ground.]
Due to Xia Wanyuan’s post, some curious netizens checked the addresses of these twenty cinemas and realized that they were distributed in twenty more developed cities in America.
What was most shocking was that
These twenty cinemas had all been bought by the Xiafeng Group.
Didn’t you say that I’m so amazing because I’m rich? Then I’ll buy the movie theater and release it there. I’ll show you what real money is.
The foreign netizens were stunned by this rich and imposing behavior. The topic called “So what if Xia Wanyuan is rich” that was originally used to mock Xia Wanyuan had now become a topic of praise for her.
The next day, in the wee hours of America time, the movie quietly went online.
Few people actually watched such Chinese movies, but one was one.
Take the data of the cinemas in America as an example.
That night, when the movie theater calculated, they realized that there were only five people who came to watch the movie in the morning.
In the afternoon, the number became 15. At night, it actually became 30.
Although this data was really unpresentable compared to other blockbusters that were filled with people, this data indicated a trend.
That was, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and beyond, the box office of the movie might continue to increase.
Although the cultures of various countries had barriers, human emotions were interlinked. Joy, anger, sorrow, and joy could be sensed by the audience in front of the screen through their works.
The few people who watched the movie at the beginning slowly spread out through word of mouth and comments on social media.
Gradually, like the butterfly effect, more and more people began to walk into the theater and choose to watch “Eldest Princess”.
The next day, more than half of the theater could be filled.
On the third day, the Beijing Cinema was already full. Because the venue was limited, four scenes a day could not satisfy the needs of a city.
At this moment, the other cinemas that did not open their screenings at first smelled a business opportunity.
To capitalists, they were willing to invest wherever there was money.
All the major theaters went online with the movie “Eldest Princess”. Curious audiences rushed into the theater to watch it. After leaving the theater, they spontaneously recommended it to the people around them.
Just like that, a week later, the reputation and box office of “Eldest Princess” exploded in America.
The most popular topic of discussion was, “Hey, did you watch that movie in China? The one with the especially good clothes.”
Seeing that this movie was so popular in America, cinemas in other countries followed suit and began to introduce this movie.
Hence, another week later,
This movie became popular worldwide.
The popularity of a movie was far more than entertainment. It was just like the American blockbuster that once wreaked havoc in China, bringing with it the values of the entire America and the input of America’s culture.
Ordinary people could not personally experience the social life of America. The source of information they could obtain was all sorts of movies and television dramas.
When people saw the word America, they would naturally think of the brave and fearless hero image and advanced and perfect social life transmitted in its movies.
As a movie that had completely condensed Chinese culture, “Eldest Princess”‘s popularity allowed audiences all over the world to see China’s traditional cultural concepts and all sorts of traditional clothes from this movie.
The world audience saw the zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, and riding and archery skills.
In order to understand these plot performances better, many people spontaneously began to understand these things that they had never come into contact with.
Due to their different ideologies, foreign media usually portrayed China as old-fashioned, honest, greedy, cheap, and dirty.
And this movie taught the world an unstoppable wave of loyalty and courage in China’s traditional culture, letting everyone see the definition of country and home that was not used in Western culture.
This time, the worldwide input of Chinese movies was a victory for the box office at that time. It was the symbol of China’s film industry truly walking towards the international community.
However, in the definition of later generations, this movie output incident was considered the perfect opening to “pry up Chinese culture and walk onto the world stage”.
The initial growth of the box office and reputation was very slow. Once it began to snowball, it would only snowball. A week after the movie was broadcasted, the movie “Eldest Princess” had already surpassed Director Charon’s “Starry Sky Journey” and became the third highest-grossing movie in history.
Half a month after it was broadcasted, “Eldest Princess” reached the top and became the first top of box office in history!
Furthermore, this data was still being surpassed by itself.
