Comrade Xu, who had just changed his shoes and was about to go to the living room for a sip of tea, heard this and looked sideways at Comrade Xu, and stopped, "Why?"
The request Xu Tonglu just made is indeed strange.
He, Tongdao Xu, was involved in a scandal. Xu Tonglu, his younger brother, did not want to help his elder brother eliminate the impact of the scandal as soon as possible. Instead, he wanted Tongdao Xu to delay clarifying the current scandal for a few days.
Is this a request that a normal person can make?
Xu Tongdao did not get angry on the spot because he knew his brother well and knew that he was not the kind of person who makes nonsense. Therefore, Xu Tongdao believed that since Xu Tonglu made such a request, there must be some reason.
He is now waiting for Xu Tonglu to explain.
Xu Tonglu glanced around, and then lowered his voice and said: "Brother, the timing of your scandal being exposed is very lucky. It happened to coincide with the time when the Zhengyang Group owned by Xi Zhilan was vigorously promoting the first TV series run by their group.
Their group
Just two or three days after you started promoting the TV series, the scandal between you and Lin Yoona came out. Now it has the momentum to suppress their publicity, so I want your scandal to spread for a few more days to continue to suppress them.
TV series for a while.”
Tongdao Xu frowned and looked at him.
Just look at it.
As if asking with eyes: Are you kidding me? Do you want to use your eldest brother's scandal as a weapon to suppress your opponents? Do you still have me as your eldest brother in your heart?
Xu Tonglu was a little stunned by Xu Tongdao, and he explained in a low voice: "Brother, anyway, your scandal has spread all over the Internet. It won't make any difference to clarify it a few days later. What do you think?
And, think about it! This is the first TV series that Xi Zhilan and the others have carefully created by that group. Now is the critical period for their publicity and momentum. If we can suppress this wave of their publicity, we will definitely make them
Not to mention that a wave of publicity funds was wasted, it could also give them a head-on blow and seriously damage their morale. After all, this was the first film they had run after investing huge sums of money to acquire Under the Banyan Tree and Dongwu Zhengyang Film and Television Company.
It’s a TV series.”
Tongdao Xu finally retracted his gaze from Tonglu Xu and walked towards the living room. As he walked, he asked: "Tell me about the TV series they made this time! What is the specific situation? Let me know if their project is worth it."
It’s worth suppressing my scandal.”
Xu Tonglu breathed a sigh of relief. Just like Xu Tongdao understood Xu Tonglu, Xu Tonglu naturally also knew his elder brother Xu Tongdao very well.
When he saw that Xu Tongdao was no longer staring at him, and heard Xu Tongdao asking this, Xu Tonglu knew in his heart that as long as the reasons he gave next were sufficient, his elder brother would probably agree to his proposal this time.
So, Xu Tonglu quickly introduced, "Brother, Xi Zhilan and the others spent 30 million to acquire Rongshuxia, and then invested another 50 million to support the rapid development of Rongshuxia.
In the past six months, with the support of 50 million funds, Banyan Tree has indeed achieved certain development. It has invited some famous figures in the field of traditional literature to publish their works under the Banyan Tree. At the same time, it has also attracted some Internet authors to publish their works under the Banyan Tree.
.
The TV series they recently invested 15 million in is the first TV series created after the establishment of her Zhengyang Group. It is adapted from the most popular romance novel under the banyan tree in the past six months. The names of the novel and the TV series are both
"Half Love".
This TV series was made by a relatively well-known director in our country. The male and female protagonists are also popular domestic stars. It can be regarded as a trial work of Zhengyang Group, and it can also be regarded as their masterpiece to establish their signature.
Therefore, although their total investment in this TV series is not large, I think we need to keep its momentum going so that they can misfire in the first shot."
""Half Love"?"
Xu Tongdao had just poured himself a cup of tea, and when he put it to his mouth, he turned to look at Xu Tonglu in surprise.
What's this name?
Is there still one half of love?
This name made Xu Tongdao immediately think of a watermelon cut in half with a knife. Cutting the watermelon in half can be said to be one half.
But how can love be cut into two halves?
Xu Tonglu nodded, "Yes! That's the name."
Comrade Xu was speechless.
He felt that this name was very unscientific, but he also felt that such a name might really arouse some people's curiosity.
Maybe it will appeal to some female viewers, maybe.
Because in his memory, the names of some popular TV series seemed quite strange, and female viewers seemed to just accept them.
"How many days do you need me to wait for you to clarify?"
Comrade Xu took a sip of tea and asked.
Xu Tonglu smiled and raised his right hand, "It will be almost done in about five days!"
Tongdao Xu glanced at him, pondered for a moment, and nodded slightly, "Okay! I'll wait for you for five days."
After a pause, Comrade Xu asked again: "By the way, since you plan to snipe this TV series this time, you should have other arrangements, right? You won't just rely on my scandal, right?"
Xu Tonglu nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, it is difficult to promote a TV series, but if you want to make it stink, there are many ways! Brother, you can wait and see."
Tongdao Xu looked at him again, and seeing that he had no intention of saying more, Tongdao Xu didn't ask any more questions, "Okay, then I'll wait and see what you do."
…
If Xu Tonglu hadn't mentioned it today, Xu Tongdao wouldn't have noticed the recent actions of the Zhengyang Group caused by Xi Zhilan.
And what Comrade Xu reported today did arouse a little curiosity in Comrade Xu.
That night, he searched for relevant news on the computer in the study room.
He wanted to see how Xi Zhilan and the others promoted the TV series this time.
There are already many related reports on the Internet.
Comrade Xu clicked on the press releases one after another and browsed through them line by line.

Later, he clicked on several related videos, including a trailer.
