To everyone's surprise, Hengsheng Pictures did not choose to let it go, but immediately announced the news that Su Lingxi would be the producer of "Angel Crazy Flower", and released it simultaneously on major domestic and foreign social platforms such as Weibo, Instagram, and Twitter.

At the same time, Hollywood's popular rising star Jacqueline Pate announced on Instagram that she will play the role of Edith in "Angelica".

Once these two pieces of new information were released, all kinds of conspiracy theories and dissatisfaction disappeared instantly.

As we all know, being an actor is not a career that can be pursued for a lifetime. Most actors will find a way out after their peak period ends. Among them, becoming a behind-the-scenes worker is a path that many people will choose.

Even for the most popular Hollywood movie stars, there are many who are actors, producers, and even directors at the same time, and their fans are optimistic about this - no one wants their favorite star to stay where he is forever, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to have more say in this industry.

Therefore, if Su Lingxi can really be both "civil and martial", and can act and produce at the same time, it will be a matter of pride for fans. After all, this just proves that their vision is good enough.

Furthermore, Jacqueline Pate, as the most popular young actress in Hollywood this year, has already had hit series such as "Riddles", and her popularity and status in North America are one level higher than Su Lingxi. It is not something difficult for fans to accept to work with her.

"The situation has basically stabilized now. The red and black hedging has worked very well. Those trouble-making online trolls seem to have evaporated overnight." Yu Wan stared at the computer screen carefully, repeatedly confirming the latest situation. "Most apps can't find many malicious comments. The reactions from the Internet and the media are currently relatively good."

"Evaporated? I think they are receding." Yang Qian snorted coldly and turned to look at Su Lingxi, "Who do you think did it?"

Lillian Davis who failed to get the role, Verina Melode who always disliked her, or Toho Co., Ltd. who was resentful because of the division of interests?

Many names flashed through Su Lingxi's mind in an instant, but she quickly rejected them one by one.

Although these people have conflicts with her to varying degrees, they are not so powerful that they can manipulate public opinion in American forums, especially the latter two.

"No matter who did it, it's not surprising." Kelly frowned subconsciously and sighed, "Nicole, the fact that you have come this far in such a short time has already aroused the vigilance of too many people."

"Yeah, this is Hollywood." At this point, Su Lingxi calmed down. "Fortunately, we handled it very well this time. Kelly, thank you for your hard work."

Kelly waved her hand. "It's nothing. I'm just the person responsible for spreading the news. If you hadn't found a way to convince Columbia to allow you to join the ranks of producers in advance, I'm afraid there would be no room for me to play a role at all."

She grinned to herself again, "But seriously, Jacqueline has helped us a lot this time, hasn't she?"

This is indeed true - it is no exaggeration to say that as soon as the news of Jacqueline Pat's joining came out, the popularity of the project doubled.

Su Lingxi guessed that Pat's contract was definitely not signed today. After all, popular stars like her usually have very full schedules. The only possibility is that Columbia had already negotiated the contract with her, but wanted to save it until the end to make a big move for the media and therefore kept it secret.

Now that this wave of public opinion is about to affect the reputation of the project, we have no choice but to release the news in advance to maintain stability.

Thinking back to the difficult negotiation he had with Colombia, Su Lingxi felt very upset.

In order to get the position of producer, she not only spent money and effort, but was also forced to agree to Columbia's "unreasonable demands" - to persuade Li Shuo to sign a three-year cooperation contract with them as much as possible.

In fact, after a few months of contact with Li Shuo, Su Lingxi realized that this was an impossible task.

But it doesn't matter. When the enemy comes, we will fight back. When the water comes, we will block it with earth. Anyway, Columbia will not be willing to fall out with her for a while, so the longer it can be delayed, the better.

Maybe after the release of "Freedom Road" the box office performance is good, Li Shuo will be so happy that he can't help but agree to her?

Well, the possibility of this happening is as small as the low probability event of doomsday coming tomorrow, so Su Lingxi can only think about it with a smile on his face.

"She seems to like this movie very much. A paparazzi broke the news that Pat had already left for Los Angeles this morning. It seems that she is planning to join the crew in advance to prepare for martial arts training." Zhang Wenya paused and added, "In addition, the action director invited by "Angel Crazy Flower" seems to be a very well-known martial arts expert. It is not known who he is yet."

"Well, this might just be a publicity stunt used by the crew." Kelly curled her lips in disdain, saying in a commonplace tone, "You know, this kind of method is very common in Los Angeles..."

Su Lingxi could sense that Kelly was not so optimistic about this project. In other words, she did not think that with the current team of "Angel Crazy Flower", they could hire a truly famous martial arts instructor.

Su Lingxi had no reason to blame her for this, because even she herself didn't have much hope for it.

She did a lot of training during the filming of "Player Self-help Guide", and she still maintains the good habit of exercising for an hour every day in the space. Therefore, with the accumulated kung fu foundation, Su Lingxi is very confident about her subsequent martial arts training - no matter what kind of coach the crew assigns her, she is confident that she can do it well. If it doesn't work, she can also ask the system for "special training".

However, what made Su Lingxi and Kelly both miscalculate was that Joseph McNeill somehow managed to invite Gary Hutchison, a well-known Hollywood martial arts instructor and close combat master.

You know, Hutcherson has served as the action director for many big-budget top action films such as "Pirates", "Mission Impossible 5", and "Men in Black 3". He is very famous in the circle and is not someone that can be invited for ordinary projects.

I'm afraid Columbia played a big role in inviting him this time - because of the popular "Men in Black" series, Hutcherson and Columbia have always had a very good relationship, it's no exaggeration to say that it's as close as honey and oil.
