"Haha, it seems Hu Yibao is really anxious. He even dared to invite all the big names in the film industry to attend the preview of 'Kung Fu'. The latest news is that Quentin has also received a related invitation, and after the action taken by Yida Cinema, Quentin has already agreed. He is a guy who speaks his mind."
"Just wait for Hu Yibao's 'Kung Fu' to become a hit."
"If Hu Yibao can successfully release 'Kung Fu' worldwide, I will definitely go to the cinema to watch it, and after watching it, I will definitely give him a bad review."
"Now all the major directors around the world, as well as related screenwriters, producers, etc., have received invitations for preview screenings of Kung Fu."
"Is Hu Yibao really going to play a big game?"
"He must have given it his all."
It's not just a hot topic on the Internet.
In response to Hu Yibao's sudden action, major media outlets around the world also took action one after another.
Regardless of whether the media is movie-related or not, they all want to get some traffic.
CBA TV Station in the United States:
Quentin Tarantino admitted to receiving an invitation to preview the Chinese film "Kung Fu" and said he would attend.
Island Country Sakura Daily:
[Hu Yibao from China is filming "Kung Fu" and has invited more than ten celebrities from our country]

…
…
Under global attention.
November 20th.
There are still twenty days left before the Nobel Prize ceremony.
"Kung Fu" finally had its preview screening at Yida Cinema in Shanghai amidst much anticipation.
Six o'clock in the evening.
At the entrance of Yida Cinema in Shanghai.
A long red carpet stretched from the inside of the cinema to the roadside.
Both sides of the red carpet were filled with reporters, both domestic and foreign, and hundreds of cameras had entered shooting mode.
Jiang Gangmeng and Hu Yibao, like the protagonists, stood at the door, waiting for the next group of moviegoers from all over the world to arrive.
It was five minutes past six.
A convoy of black cars slowly drove into everyone's sight.
Jiang Gangmeng and Hu Yibao welcomed the first group of people who came to attend the preview of "Kung Fu".
From the United States.
A group of dozens of people, from various European countries, led by Quentin.
"Click!"
“Crack!!”
The camera's flash immediately started flashing wildly.
For many Chinese reporters, it was really the first time they saw Quentin.
"Director Quentin, look here!"
"Director Quentin, here, here!"
Quentin stood on the red carpet and posed for the photographers. Then he immediately ran towards Jiang Gangmeng with a smile on his face.
"Director Jiang, long time no see!"
"Director Kun, long time no see." Jiang Gangmeng and Quentin had obviously known each other for a long time. They hugged each other in front of Hu Yibao.
Jiang Gangmeng then introduced Hu Yibao to Quentin, "This is Director Hu Yibao, and now he's my boss."
Quentin shook hands with Hu Yibao very enthusiastically.
"Mr. Hu, I've long heard of your great name! I look forward to your Kung Fu becoming even more impressive."
Especially the two words "Niubi", which were said by Quentin in Chinese.
The pronunciation is clear and also highlights the meaning of "awesome".
Hu Yibao looked at Quentin in surprise, then quickly said with a smile, "Thank you, Director Kun, for your blessing."
Then he said with an apologetic look on his face.
"Please take a seat inside. You may have to wait for a while because 'Kung Fu' doesn't start until 8 o'clock."
It's only six o'clock.
Now after Quentin and the others enter, they will have to wait for two hours before "Kung Fu" will be played.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Quentin shook his head nonchalantly, without any of the airs of a world-class director.
Before entering, Quentin turned around, looked at Jiang Gangmeng, and said seriously, "Director Jiang, before I return to the United States, please teach me a few more words of Chinese."
"No problem!" Jiang Gangmeng made an OK gesture.
Afterwards, Hu Yibao and Jiang Gangmeng greeted the other people from the United States in a familiar manner and watched them enter.
Hu Yibao looked at Jiang Gangmeng and asked doubtfully, "Director Jiang, you and Quentin seem very familiar with each other?"
"You're even asked to teach him Chinese."
"We've met a few times!" Jiang Gangmeng said with a smile, "The last time we met, he asked me to teach him a Chinese phrase, so I taught him how to say 'Niubi'. He must be enjoying it now."
After saying this, the smile on Jiang Gangmeng's face grew wider and wider.
Because in his mind, a video he had seen before was playing. In the interview in the United States, Quentin said "awesome" and explained it seriously in English...
Not long.
Another group of European film-watching groups arrived.
Led by Mr. Adou.
"Hello, Mr. Hu!" Mr. Adou and Hu Yibao shook hands. "I'm very much looking forward to your Kung Fu movie. I also really like Chinese culture."
Adou looks silly, but he is a real academic master and speaks very politely.
At the same time, Adou has a high status and is very popular among the British.
Hu Yibao also grew up watching Adou's comedy films, and Mr. Adou was once his idol.
Hu Yibao was still a little excited when he saw Mr. Adou in person.
"Thank you Mr. Adou for your anticipation."
Then, Hu Yibao took out his cell phone from his pocket and asked, "Mr. Adou, can I take a photo with you?"
"Of course no problem!" Mr. Adou nodded readily and agreed.
After seeing off the European film viewing group.
Hu Yibao and Jiang Gangmeng gradually became busy.
Island country, Korean country...
At the same time, live broadcasts from Yida Cinema appeared on major live broadcast platforms in China.
Barrage of comments flew up.
"Oh shit, Quentin is here too. My favorite of his movies is Pulp Fiction, it's truly a masterpiece."
"Quentin seems to be very familiar with Jiang Gangmeng. They even hugged each other in front of Brother Bao. Brother Bao must be jealous!"
"Look who this is, Mr. Adou! I love watching Mr. Adou's comedies. There's no sound, and he's just performing with his acting skills."
"Feng Hao from South Korea is here too. I'm going to give a blast to the movie he shot called 'Parasite'!"
…
"Brother Bao is awesome! He even invited celebrities from around the world to the preview of 'Kung Fu' as part of the audience."
"I heard that this time the cost was very high, no less than 500 million yuan."
"See? This is the layout."
…
Seven fifty.
All those who accepted the invitation have arrived, and Hu Yibao and Jiang Gangmeng returned to Yida Cinema.
The largest theater in Yida Cinema was also full of people at this time.
