256, I am not filming to make money

"oh?"

Yang Wanli raised his eyebrows: "Xiao Shuo, are you so confident in your film?"

"Of course I have confidence. Anyway, I don't think the box office will be a hit!" Hu Shuo replied confidently.

"Um."

Yang Wanli nodded slightly and said with a smile: "If it's really what you said, it would be interesting."

The most important thing among big guys when getting along with each other is face. At their level, 99% of the things in this world are almost at your fingertips. Therefore, what they earn from each other is nothing more than face. If their son-in-law can really slap him in the face

Qin Taihe, then Yang Wanli naturally has a bright face. Calling him uncle is just a joke, but having a good face is true.

"Dad, the premiere of my movie is going to be held on December 18th. Why don't you also enjoy it and go to the venue??"

Hu Shuo took the opportunity to send out an invitation. He set the premiere date of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" today, one week before its official release. According to Hu Shuo's plan, after the premiere, he would start arranging nationwide road shows and on-the-ground

publicity.

"Well, that's fine, then I'll go and cheer you up!"

Yang Wanli readily agreed.

"Okay, then I'll thank Dad first!"

Seeing that Yang Wanli agreed so readily, Hu Shuo was naturally very happy. If Yang Wanli could attend the premiere of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", the film's attention would immediately increase by n levels.

"I'm waiting for Qin Taihe to call me uncle."

Yang Wanli laughed.

"What uncle?"

Just when Weng and his son-in-law were chatting, Yang Yunyan came back.

"Nothing, just chatting with Xiao Shuo."

Yang Wanli smiled.

"oh."

Yang Yunyan responded and turned to look at Hu Shuo, who lightly shrugged and didn't mention the "uncle" thing.

"Mysterious."

Yang Yunyan pursed her lips slightly, then sat next to Hu Shuo and asked, "Is your movie scheduled?"

"Well, the premiere is on December 18th and it will be released on December 24th. My dear wife, you have to go and support me~!" Hu Shuo said with a smile.

"It depends on the time."

"Well, it depends on your mood~!"

Yang Yunyan smiled coquettishly and pursed her lips, acting like a little woman.

"Okay, I promise to make my wife happy every day~!"

As he said that, Hu Shuo stretched out his hands to press Yang Yunyan's shoulders: "Honey, how strong is this..."

"Well, you can use more force..."

Yang Yunyan smiled.

"..."

The two of them showed off their affection in front of them so brazenly that Yang Wanli had no choice but to drink tea in silence. However, Yang Wanli was quite happy in his heart. There is no parent who doesn't want their children to have a happy marriage.

"By the way, Xiao Shuo, the kindergarten that Zuo Zuo goes to is pretty good, right?"

Yang Wanli took a few sips of tea and suddenly asked.

"Well, not bad."

Hu Shuo nodded and said doubtfully: "Dad, why do you suddenly ask about this?"

"I was chatting with Lao Qin today. It's time for his little grandson to go to kindergarten. I casually talked about this topic." Yang Wanli said slowly: "I want to say that Lao Qin's little grandson is really interesting. He has a tiger head and a tiger head, just like the one in the New Year pictures.

Little baby, you said that Lao Qin looks like that, but his little grandson should be so good-looking, it’s really unreasonable!”

"Well, I don't know what my grandson, Yang Wanli, will look like. I am much more handsome than Lao Qin, and I guess my grandson will be cuter than Lao Qin's little grandson..."

"Well, that must be the case!!"

Yang Wanli said to himself, and then his eyes fell on Yang Yunyan: "Yunyan, I am in good health recently. I can also help you share the burden of the group's affairs..."

"oh……"

Yang Yunyan agreed: "I understand."

"Just understand!"

Yang Wanli nodded, and then whispered: "Lao Qin's little grandson is so funny~!"

"..."

Listening to Yang Wanli's muttering, Hu Shuo and Yang Yunyan looked at each other in understanding and shrugged at the same time.

In fact, Hu Shuo is also a little anxious, because the two of them have been working hard for a while, but there has been no movement, and they don't know when this second child plan will be successful!

In the following days, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" entered the most critical promotion period. Wanli Pictures' publicity was indeed very powerful and it won publicity from many large platforms.

In early December, the crew of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was invited to participate in the recording of Jiangcheng TV's "Very Close" program.

"Very Close" is currently the most popular talk show in China, and the host Zhang Ling is also a famous first-line host in China.

Recording scene.

Hu Shuo, Liu Xiaoxiao, and Sun Dasheng sat on the sofa opposite Zhang Ling, and Hu Shuo naturally took the C seat.

"I especially want to ask Xiao Hu to verify one thing. This matter should also be of great concern to the audience. Are you really Mr. Yang Wanli Yang's son-in-law?"

Zhang Ling is in her early 40s and is a senior in the industry, so it is not a problem for her to call Hu Shuo "Xiao Hu".

"I'm curious why everyone is so interested in this matter?" Hu Shuo asked with a smile.

"Because everyone thinks that Yang Wanli's son-in-law doesn't need to make money by filming!" Zhang Ling said.

Upon hearing this, Hu Shuo laughed and said: "But I am not filming to make money, because my family is not short of money!"

"..."

Zhang Ling was speechless, this answer was quite choking.

However, Zhang Ling is an experienced host after all, and has strong adaptability on the spot. She only hesitated for a moment and asked: "Then why are you filming?"

"It's purely a personal hobby," Hu Shuo replied.

"So, you don't care about the box office of this drama anymore?" Zhang Ling asked.

Hu Shuo shook his head: "That's not true, because the box office is an affirmation of our drama, so I still value the box office very much."

"So do you have any expectations for the box office of this drama? Or do you have any goals?" Zhang Ling continued to ask.

"Um……"

Hu Shuo thought for a while and said: "Actually, I have a small goal in mind..."

"How much?" Zhang Ling asked, looking into Hu Shuo's eyes.

"One billion!"

Hu Shuo blurted out the answer.

"..."

Not only Zhang Ling was shocked when she heard this number, but Sun Dasheng and Liu Xiaoxiao were also shocked. They were both starring in "The Richest Man in Xihong City", but they had never dared to think of such a number.

"A billion?"

“Small goal??”

Zhang Ling looked at Hu Shuo and couldn't help but roll her eyes. Before today's interview began, she had no contact with Hu Shuo. However, before the program was recorded, she checked Hu Shuo's information in detail, including his

The dark history of the past.

Therefore, Zhang Ling actually did not have a good impression of Hu Shuo, especially when the interview progressed to this point, her impression of Hu Shuo became even worse.

First he said that he was not filming to make money, and now he said that he had set a small goal for the film: one billion!

To be honest, Zhang Ling really couldn't stand listening anymore, but she had been doing the show "Very Close" for twelve years, and she had met all kinds of guests. Therefore, although she felt unhappy, the look on Zhang Ling's face

But it didn't show.

At the same time, Zhang Ling still felt a little secretly happy. This secret happiness was not because of her personal emotions. Based on her experience, she had a premonition that this program would become popular, and the louder Hu Shuo's bragging, the more popular this program would be.

The hotter.

"A billion?"

"This is no small goal." Zhang Ling raised the corner of her mouth with a faint smile and continued to ask: "Xiao Hu, I believe you should know that the New Year's Day schedule is full of blockbusters, and your film does not seem to be anything.

Big production, are you so confident in defeating those competitors?"

Zhang Ling's question was obviously a trap for Hu Shuo, because she directly asked whether she was so confident in defeating her competitors, not whether she was confident in standing out from the competition.

Although the two sentences are similar, their meanings are completely different.

Now as long as Hu Shuo answers "confident", then it is undoubtedly a manifestation of arrogance. As we all know, there are many blockbusters on New Year's Day. However, Hu Shuo dares to say that he is confident to defeat all opponents. Of course, it is a manifestation of arrogance.

.

“Of course I have confidence!!”

Hu Shuo's answer was very direct. He was not prepared to keep a low profile when participating in this interview today, because at this time he had to be high-profile in order to attract more attention and attention.

There is no other way. After all, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is indeed compared with other films in terms of lineup and production scale. So, if he wants to get better attention, Hu Shuo can only use his own

Identity attracts "cannon fire".

Therefore, all Hu Shuo's previous answers were intentional.

"I really didn't realize that Xiao Hu had such big ambitions when he first appeared on the big screen." Zhang Ling looked at Hu Shuo with a smile in her eyes and asked: "By the way, there is another film in the same period as you."

Well, I won’t mention the name of the movie. I believe everyone knows that their director once said in a program that your movie is not at the same level as theirs, so he doesn’t bother to compare the box office with your movie.

What do you think about this?"

"Sister Ling is talking about Bai Yunfei, the director of "I'm Not an Angel"!"

Hu Shuo had no inhibitions and directly told the other party's film title and director's name.

Zhang Ling spread her hands and smiled without saying a word, naturally acquiescing.

"I think Director Bai is right. Our films are indeed not of the same standard as their films..."

Hu Shuo's response was a bit unexpected. Zhang Ling was about to speak when she heard Hu Shuo continue: "Because their movies are too low!!"

"Well……"

Zhang Ling was slightly startled: "Too low??"

No one in this time and space has ever used this adjective like this, so Zhang Ling didn't realize what Hu Shuo meant.

Seeing this, Hu Shuo smiled: "Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"I can understand that you are saying that their films are too bad??" Zhang Ling thought for a while and finally understood what Hu Shuo meant.

"Almost."

Hu Shuo nodded slightly: "However, what I mean by difference is relative. I don't mean that their films are inferior. I just mean that compared with our films, they will be inferior!"

Hu Shuo's answer was very direct and unabashed.

Because Bai Yunfei publicly belittled "The Richest Man in Xihong City" on the "Love Duel" program. Under such circumstances, Hu Shuo of course had to fight back.

Because Bai Yunfei's remarks are likely to be off-beat. After hearing his words, some viewers will really think that "I'm Not an Angel" is several levels higher than "The Richest Man in Xihong City". If Hu Shuo doesn't respond directly,

The audience will feel that "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is acquiescing to Bai Yunfei's statement.

As a result, the impression score of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" will be low, and the audience will feel that "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is really not as good as "I am Not an Angel".

In fact, when promoting movies of the same period, there must be situations where they compete with each other. It’s just that some film producers are more direct and some film producers are more subtle. This is the so-called publicity war!
