Chapter 681 The Sick Old Man

As time entered mid-April, the weather suddenly began to become warmer.

The Chinese-language film industry is also gradually recovering from the cold winter and preparing for the next fierce battle.

Although there is still half a month left, the publicity and promotion war for the May Day period is already in the air, and every household is trying their best to get the upper hand in publicity and pre-sales.

The female data workers in the fan circle are also busy. In order to improve Giegie's performance, they are ready to drain their wallets, take out advance loans, and do their best to help Giegie increase the box office.

What's even more outrageous is that she even sold her body to get paid sex from old men to support Giegie. After the deed was done, she even posted it publicly on Huaban and Xiaodigu, deeply moved by herself.

Unfortunately, what greeted them was only ridicule and mockery.

Shabi!

In this vigorous publicity and promotion war, "Crazy Stone" is the most low-key one.

It’s not that the film company is unwilling to do publicity and promotion, but that they simply don’t have the budget... The entire crew has been having a hard time since the beginning. They are lucky enough to be able to shoot and edit the drama smoothly. How could they have any extra budget to engage in publicity and promotion?

However, even if the producers lie down and let the film go, the level of attention this film received is no less than that of the others.

The reason is very simple, just because of those four words - screenwriter: Zhou Hao.

As a recognized hit-making machine, Zhou Hao's every move now becomes the focus of attention of the entire circle.

Last year, a short film of just over 20 minutes turned the entire National Day period upside down, forcing "The Founding of a Nation" to resort to unconventional tactics to barely retain the championship throne...

It's been less than half a year, and everyone still remembers it.

This time the time limit is complete. What kind of answer will he give?
As for the film's director Zhang Mo...he was simply ignored by everyone.

Because everyone used a number of hit movies and the negative example of "The Undocumented Crime" for reference and comparison and came to a conclusion - as for Zhou Hao's script, as long as the director doesn't mess up, just shoot it honestly according to the script!

Zhang Mo obviously knew the ins and outs of this. Before starting the final promotion and preview, he personally went to Zhou Hao's office, wanting him to participate in the final sprint work.

But Zhou Hao refused.

Since you are doing behind-the-scenes work, there is no need to rush to the front and compete for attention.

Let whoever has the stage take the lead. There is no need to steal the show.

After hearing this decision, Zhang Mo was stunned for about a full minute, feeling confused.

In this day and age, there are still such "bosses" who are not greedy for credit? !

In the years after graduation, he didn't just shoot that award-winning movie. He had actually shot several films before that.

However, he was only the assistant director in those films, and in the end, the bulk of the salary and the glory on stage were all taken away by the director...

He was once indignant, but soon realized that this was the ecology of the circle and a normal phenomenon.

But now, Zhou Hao's firm attitude directly shattered his stereotype of this circle.

When he walked out of the office, there was a hint of determination in his eyes.

He knew that this would definitely not be the last time he came to this office.

This is a good boss who is trustworthy.

…………

Before May Day, Zhou Hao took Xu Lingyue back to his hometown to visit his grandfather. After the Chinese New Year, the old man's health deteriorated, and he spent half of the two months in the hospital.

The old man was afraid that it would affect Zhou Hao's work, so he kept it a secret from him.

Until this time, Zhou Jianhua really didn't dare to hide it, because the old man's health was deteriorating very quickly. If he continued to hide it, it might be too late one day...

When Zhou Hao and Xu Lingyue rushed back and saw the old man, they were both shocked.

He was originally a very healthy person, but now he was completely deformed - his whole body was swollen, his face was so swollen that he couldn't open his eyes, his chest was heaving violently, and it was obvious that he was having difficulty breathing.

How could it be like this after just two months of not seeing each other? !

Facing Zhou Hao's surprised look, his mother Li Guiqin explained in a low voice: "On the 20th day of the first lunar month, he went out for a walk and fell down without paying attention... He said it was no big deal at the time and was still full of energy, so we didn't take it seriously."

"From the third day on, something was wrong with him. His whole body started to swell, and he would hold his chest and gasp for air. Your aunt and her family saw that something was wrong and rushed him to the hospital."

"What did the doctor say?" Xu Lingyue asked in a low voice.

Li Guiqin sighed softly, "The situation is not good. How can a man of his age who still smokes and drinks every day get better? At least he looked healthy before, but the fall before brought out all the problems in his body."

"Emphysema, coronary heart disease, prostate... It was not until this examination that we found out that he had already experienced a mild cerebral infarction."

Zhou Hao was stunned. "What's going on? Doesn't Grandpa usually have a physical examination?"

Li Guiqin didn't say anything, but just glanced at Jia Hong.

The meaning is very clear - the eldest daughter-in-law is not paying attention, and it is not the turn of the younger daughter-in-law to take over.

Zhou Hao was so angry that he laughed. What a mess.

Seeing that he was about to explode, Li Guiqin quickly pulled him back and said, "Don't meddle with other people's business at this time. After all, she is your elder! Get through this first, and then talk to her about it when you have the chance!"

"I know." Zhou Hao nodded, then looked at Li Guiqin, "Did you and dad have the physical examination on time?"

Li Guiqin was stunned and looked a little embarrassed. "This...your father and I are still young, we are not sick or in pain..."

"Mom, that's not what I meant." Xu Lingyue said quickly, "For some diseases, it's too late to treat them until the pain comes out. You still need to have regular checkups. It's only once a year, and it doesn't take much time."

"She doesn't think it's troublesome, but she is reluctant to spend money." Zhou Hao said suddenly.

Even Xu Lingyue was at a loss now. "Mom... this is just a few dollars. Zhou Hao and I earn a lot every year. There's no need to save even this little money, right?"

"What you said is yours, and it has nothing to do with us." Fearing that her daughter-in-law would continue to say something, she quickly raised her hands in surrender, "Is it not okay for me to do it? I'll take your father for a full body checkup in a few days, okay?"

"That's pretty good." Zhou Hao grinned and gave Xu Lingyue a look of praise.

It is you who has the final say!

However, the next second, he couldn't laugh anymore.

"Don't just talk about me, what's going on between you two?" Li Guiqin pointed at Xu Lingyue's belly and asked curiously, "You lived together before marriage, and there's no movement until now?"

Xu Lingyue's face turned red instantly, and she felt extremely regretful.

I shouldn't have gotten involved if I had known this.

Get on fire!
