Thanks to the dedication of the props and scriptwriting teams, the post-production of the first season of "The King of Fighters" was completed quickly, and it was released simultaneously at home and abroad.
[Wuhu~, who's so lucky? This year is truly a year of great success! There are game competitions to watch, movies, restaurant variety shows, and even TV dramas. I'm so happy! (p≧w≦q)]
[I must say, my dear Feiyang, I am very satisfied. Keep it up! (Read and edited emoji.JPG)]
[Increase output, Flying Entertainment, you don't want me to be lured away by other companies, do you? (evil grin.JPG)]
[Upstairs, I've heard about your PUA tactics even in the Arctic Circle. MacArthur's response: Intensify the efforts! ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ]
[I'm so happy! Seeing the cast of "The Quest for the Throne," I can't even imagine it! A whole bunch of Best Actress and Best Actor winners, and all the rising stars are there too! This cast is just too luxurious! No wonder it's Feiyang Entertainment; I wouldn't even dare to dream of such a lineup with another company!!]
[Seriously, there hasn't been much news about the competition for top star power. If the cast hadn't been kept under wraps, I wouldn't have guessed such a star-studded lineup.]
[Just kidding, how can they argue about billing order? The last one was blacklisted by Feiyang Entertainment and never hired again, but now Y platform is in a honeymoon period with Feiyang Entertainment again, which basically means they're permanently banned from the industry and can just switch careers.]
[I must say, it feels like we've gone back to the golden age. Actors of all sizes can appear in the same drama because the roles are a good fit. I have to say, Feiyang Entertainment really has a lot of influence. There are quite a few award-winning actors and actresses in the cast who haven't acted in a long time, and now they're all back! I'm getting more and more excited! (*?ω?)]
[An overseas movie fan reporting in! I'm so happy that it's being released simultaneously in China and abroad! However, due to the time difference, it's being released in China first. Actually, I can stay up late, though (*?▽?*)]
"The Quest for the Throne" has finally been released amidst much anticipation from movie fans.
The opening scene is a fully real-life Warring States period palace banquet, filmed in one continuous shot, showing the entire palace bustling with activity, as if preparing for a grand banquet.
"The sons of the five feudal lords will be here today, so be careful. If you ruin the princess's husband-selection banquet, you know what the consequences will be."
The people below responded tremblingly.
On the other side of the screen, in front of a bronze mirror, is a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes, with people carefully attending to her.
"Your Highness, the ministers and envoys of the feudal lords have already taken their seats."
"knew"
Princess Wang responded, but her expression was full of arrogance and indifference, showing no sign of speeding up her actions because of her lateness.
Soon the music began, and the banquet officially started. Emperor Xu drank with everyone, and Princess Wang sat in the second seat next to Emperor Xu. The ministers seemed to be quite familiar with this.
However, the envoys from distant vassal states were subtly observing the expressions of the others with gleaming eyes.
Sure enough, not long after the conversation began, they understood the unspoken meaning behind Xu Tianzi's words: Xu Tianzi actually wanted the princess to inherit the throne.
Although they already knew that Emperor Xu was going to choose a husband for the princess, they still did not expect that Emperor Xu would have such a thought.
The envoy of the Duke of Zhou secretly observed that the Xu Emperor was old and had not had any children all these years. Now, he only had one child, the Princess. The other feudal lords were also tacitly waiting for the Xu Emperor to choose the next emperor from among their children. However, they did not expect that the Xu Emperor would have such a plan.
Princess Wang, sitting in a high position, naturally saw through the thoughts of her servants, and she curled her lips in disdain.
On the other side, the seats were filled with the hostages who had come to be selected and the other princes of the various lords who had come this time. Prince Wei looked at the princess with joy in his eyes. He was the youngest son of the Duke of Wei. Because most of his territory was wild land, he had been ridiculed by the princes of the other lords before the banquet even started.
However, he was not very favored in the territory, and he desperately wanted to be chosen by the princess.
Looking at the turbulent crowd below, each with their own hidden agendas, Emperor Xu sighed inwardly. These feudal lords probably already regarded him as a mere figurehead. If another successor were to be chosen from among them, it would likely cause serious problems. Although he was currently the emperor, he was merely a figurehead, occupying only the tiny capital city and watching helplessly as the feudal lords incorporated other smaller territories into their domains.
He could only do his best to pass on the emperor's bloodline and position to his daughter in the end.
[I must say, this banquet looks pretty good. The makeup isn't even filtered, it's all natural skin, which makes them much more recognizable. Is the Best Actress actually a maid next to the princess? Could it be that Feiyang Entertainment is trying to elevate the status of their artist Zhou Yun?!]
I don't know, but based on Feiyang Entertainment's past actions, it doesn't seem like it. Let's see what happens next.
[These five feudal lords, none of their sons seem very capable.]
[That's right, they all look pretty ordinary. Is the selection of a royal consort so casual? They don't even look as good as the hostages held in the capital. Speaking of which, under these circumstances, is it even possible to choose a hostage?]
[It's probably unlikely. Those under the emperor outwardly show respect, but in reality, they look down on him. The hostages are all from families that are reasonably capable and have some influence; they'll likely have to return eventually. Even if the emperor wanted to choose, he'd probably be rejected.]
Young Master Tian was a hostage of the Duke of Tian in the capital. After the banquet, he met with the envoy.
"Mr. Zi'an, did Father have anything to say about this visit?"
After a simple bow, Mr. Zi'an smiled and said, "Young Master will be returning soon."
"Please convey my message, sir, that I will not be returning for the time being, as half of the ministers in the capital now support me."
