Why did she forget to buy a few courtyard houses when she first came to Dongfang? At that time, it was not very valuable, but now it is not easy to buy a property that can be called sky-high.

"Do you like it here?" Yao Yingxia saw her stop and look around, thinking that this "Oriental Tong" had a great interest in such a place full of cultural atmosphere.

What she didn't know was that Leila's interest in this kind of courtyard house was certain, but it couldn't be entirely said to be because of the culture.

"It feels good and comfortable, as if it has a soul. Leila couldn't say that she was "liked" by the value of this place.

Yao Yingxia said with a smile: "It's not me talking to myself, our oriental culture really has a soul." Thousands of years of inheritance have left too many things, which melt into the air and give birth to every Oriental person. ”

Leila nodded, "Yes." The culture of the East is too old. 100 years is a long time ago for Americans, but it is as recent as yesterday for Easterners. ”

Her words made Yao Yingxia nod again and again. She has been in contact with foreigners with status all day long, and she has seen too much arrogance and arrogance from those people. I really don't know what kind of face they have, standing on the land of the Orientals, and always putting on the posture that you are all a group of inferior people.

It's not that there are no foreigners with good attitudes, it's just that she knows very well that those with good attitudes hide their despises, and deep down they still discriminate against the East. But Leila is different, she doesn't feel the pride of Westerners from her, she doesn't look at her blue eyes and white skin, and some people believe that she is an Oriental.

They spend a lot of time in contact. It can be seen that she really likes this place, and there is really no discrimination against Orientals, and she has even been friendly since a long time ago. She will not forget how she invested a large sum of dollars when there was a shortage of foreign exchange in the country, and she did not make any unreasonable demands at all.

Although she has made a lot of money building theaters in China, she is not a philanthropist, so it is impossible to just pay money and not make money. And as long as you compare the ability of other foreign businessmen to scrape the ground, you will find that this foreign director is really too kind and friendly. For that alone, she hopes to help her as much as possible so that she can always enjoy the country.

After entering the courtyard, a young girl dressed as a maid in Hanfu led the two through the corridor into a room with classical charm.

When I opened the door of the room, I immediately felt a cool air.

"Miss Moran, Miss Yao, hello. A woman in her thirties lowered the embroidery thread in her hand and welcomed the person in.

"Hello. Leila smiled and shook her hand.

After a brief chat, the two sides began to try on the dress.

The Chinese dress must be red, and when the embroiderer took out the dress that was almost finished, Leila was immediately attracted by the embroidery on it.

"The rainbow dress is shaking the crown, and the sky is full of Pei Shanshan."

Bai Juyi used two lines of poetry to describe the appearance of the phoenix crown and the xiaxia veil.

Rather than trying a heavy phoenix crown that is said to tire people to death, Leila opted for a modified headdress, not so big and ornate, but just as beautiful as it was to sigh, and the exquisite workmanship was definitely worth the price. As for the dress on the body, not to mention, the work of the top embroiderer is not blown, although it looks like it is only half embroidered now, you can already see how lifelike it will be when it is finished.

According to the normal time, it is quite difficult to complete this set by hand in four or five months. Fortunately, Leila is not short of money, and people also agreed to help her for the sake of being a "foreign friend", so it is possible to get the dress within the scheduled time.

"It should be done in October, right?" Layla looked at the phoenix, which was only half embroidered, and was a little worried about whether the more difficult parts would be too difficult to handle.

"Don't worry, we found several embroiderers at the same time. In any case, the dress will be finished before you get married. What Xiuniang didn't say was that Yao Yingxia had talked to her before, and she regarded this work as a political task, and she must fully cooperate with the needs of foreign friends.

The people of Xuanji Embroidery Workshop themselves feel that this may be an opportunity to step onto the international stage. As an Oriental, who doesn't want the things handed down by their ancestors to stand on a higher place to promote their culture? This is the reason why Xuanji's people are willing to take over the work and go all out to rush to work.

Otherwise, the words "international friends" alone would not be worth their trouble. In the national capital, who hasn't seen a few foreigners!

Since the dress was not yet fully done, it was now just a few half-embroidered pieces of cloth, and Laila only tried on those pieces with the help of a few embroiderers......

After recording the revised figures, Leila left the embroidery workshop. In fact, she really wanted to visit, but she didn't mean it at all, and she didn't want to ask rashly, in case there were any trade secrets in it.

Just when Leila was still giving various interviews in the East, and the actors were running around for publicity and commercial performances, the box office of "The Avengers" rushed towards the box office of 1.8 billion. When the box office finally surpassed "Titanic", which was the second in film history, Hollywood was a sensation, and fans around the world were excited.

It's 2011, and 12 years later, "Titanic" has been remastered in 3D and more than 300 million looted around the world. So its final box office was 2.187 billion.

And now, it's still the same 1.8 billion of it. So when Leila's film surpassed that number, the media and fans alike were boiling.

"Titanic" came out in 98, and for so many years, except for James Cameron with his "Avatar", there is no second director who can break the record of 1.8 billion. The most successful of these is none other than Leila's The Lord of the Rings.

It was like a spell that no matter how much confidence the director and producer had in their film, they couldn't break it and break the record of 1.8 billion.

It's a bad feeling to be stuck in circles all the time, and no one likes it, and it's the same with Hollywood's ambitious filmmakers.

It can be said that any director with ideals wants to jack up the big ship that weighs on his head. It's a pity that no one has succeeded for so many years. But the fact that "The Avengers" broke the 1.8 billion curse gave many directors confidence. It is said that if there is one, there will be two, and if there is two, there will be three. Generally speaking, when one person breaks the boundary, the same thing happens one after another.

Therefore, 1.8 billion has no longer become a curse for everyone, but has become a step, it depends on who can step on it as soon as possible, and then create their own brilliant record.
