This man knows how to hype

Chapter 301 Sisters

To be honest, it doesn’t matter whether it’s watching movies or reading literary works.

Most of the audience is watching for emotions. In the face of emotions, logic, reality, values, positions on good and evil, etc., have to be put aside.

Otherwise, why would so many people like "Gao Qiqiang"?

Reason will tell you that you should not empathize with gangsters.

But when reading literary works, emotions dominate.

In other words, although the values ​​of "Falling into the Abyss" always give Xu Xiyu a "strange" feeling, the emotions of the film are still relatively full.

Judging from the various rhythms of the feature film, this is a fairly qualified commercial film.

If the audience does not think too much after watching the film, they will not have any negative views on it.

Coincidentally, most viewers won’t think too much about the film after watching it.

Even when friends ask "Is it good?", their answer is very likely to be "It's OK, you can watch it."

It is for this reason that Xu Xiyu believes that even if the movie "Falling into the Abyss" is not good, it may actually become a success.

Thinking of this, he and Lu Qinyao couldn't help but look at each other again.

Just at this moment, the two of them heard the comments of the audience who had left the show.

“It’s pretty nice.”

"No, why did the screenwriter write the female assistant to die? I thought she would be with the male lead later. It's so sad."

"Is death a relief for her?"

Of course, some people also said as they walked by: "What kind of crap is this? Is it to glorify scammers? Is it true that the male protagonist and others can only be saved if the scammers have a change of heart?"

Listening to these comments, Xu Xiyu, Lu Qinyao, and several staff members who came with them, sat in the back row in silence.

Until everyone left.

They stood up and, under the guidance of the theater manager, left the cinema through another passage.

After getting in the car, Lu Qinyao took off her hat, tidied her hair, and was about to speak when she heard Xu Xiyu's cell phone ringing.

A few minutes later, Xu Xiyu hung up the phone.

Turning to Lv Qinyao, he said, "I just received news that the film's supervisory department supports "Into the Abyss" and suggested that theaters schedule more screenings. Some large organizations are even organizing group viewings."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Qinyao's brows frowned instantly.

Before she could say anything, Xu Xiyu reached out and covered her head with his hand, stroked her brow with his thumb and said, "Don't frown all the time, it's easy to get wrinkles."

After saying this, Lu Qinyao pouted and relaxed her brows, saying, "What should we do? If this continues, we might lose."

Xu Xiyu withdrew his hand upon hearing this, leaned back on the chair, and asked half paralyzed, "What do you think of "Falling into the Abyss"?"

"Word of mouth may be polarized." Lu Qinyao did not directly answer whether it was okay or not.

"No movie can please all audiences. As long as there is a certain part, plus those who buy tickets collectively, the box office will be enough for "Into the Abyss" to earn money."

"Isn't this bad?"

"It's not going to work. 'Into the Abyss' is okay, and it has strong official support, but our 'Dying to Survive' is the one that can truly stand in the history of film. There's nothing to be afraid of. It's still unclear who will win or lose."

After Xu Xiyu finished speaking, he turned around and smiled at Lu Qinyao.

Looking at his smile, Lu Qinyao couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

What she loved was Xu Xiyu's "inexplicable self-confidence".

Thinking of this, just when Lu Qinyao wanted to put her arm around Xu Xiyu's arm and whisper something to him, Xu Xiyu's phone rang again.

He picked it up and saw three big words "Li Shangling" displayed on the screen.

The call was connected. As soon as Xu Xiyu said "Hello", Li Shangling said directly: "Mr. Xu, can we meet when you have time? I want to discuss something important with you."

Hearing this, Xu Xiyu first looked at Lu Qinyao next to him, and then asked, "Where are you?"

"I'm at home, you just choose a place, this way you can feel more at ease." Li Shangling said with a smile, her voice was very soft, with a hint of Wu dialect.

"Okay, I'll send you the location later." Xu Xiyu said and hung up the phone.

As soon as the phone was hung up, Lu Qinyao asked, "Are you going to discuss something?"

"Yes, will you come with me?"

"I won't go." Lu Qinyao shook her head, then leaned over to Xu Xiyu's ear and said, "I'll wait for you at the hotel. Come early after you finish talking. I'm in my safe period now."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Xiyu immediately chuckled. Those who understand will understand what the safe period means.

An hour later, in a private club that Ke Xinying inherited from his father, Xu Xiyu and sisters Li Shangling and Li Shangrong sat opposite each other.

To be honest, Xu Xiyu always thought they were twins.

Because they are too similar, they look alike and their voices are similar. Later, I learned that Li Shangrong is two years older than Li Shangling, and she got married, had a child, and then divorced. Moreover, their personalities are probably very different. Otherwise, one would not be a manager and the other an artist.

Of course, Xu Xiyu felt that this had nothing to do with him. He was more concerned about why the two sisters were looking for him.

Therefore, after some pleasantries, Xu Xiyu got to the point and asked, "Teacher Li, you said on the phone that you had something important to discuss with me?"

As soon as these words came out, the sisters Li Shangling and Li Shangrong looked at each other.

Then Li Shangling smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, you can just call me Lingling. I don't dare to be a teacher. What do you think of the story about Chen Jing sacrificing herself for the play on the Internet?"

"What I think is not important. What is important is what the public thinks." Xu Xiyu chuckled and shook his head.

"Actually, that scene was a nude stand-in."

"I guessed it." Xu Xiyu was not too surprised.

"I have real photos and videos of the scene here to prove this." As soon as Li Shangling finished speaking, Li Shangrong next to her took out a file bag from her bag and handed it to her.

Xu Xiyu took it and opened it, only to see some photos and a USB flash drive in the file bag.

"The USB drive contains the source files of the video and photos. If you have a computer, you can take a look at it now."

Hearing this, Xu Xiyu casually flipped through the photos, then put the file bag on the table and said, "It took a lot of effort to get these things, right?"

"If it helps you, then any effort will be worth it." Li Shangling's eyes curved and her voice became softer and softer.

What does it mean to be able to speak? This is what it means to be able to speak.

But Xu Xiyu didn't fall for it and just smiled and said, "It may not be of much help."

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Shangling and Li Shangrong's expressions froze visibly.

Xu Xiyu continued, "Teacher Li, you are an artist and you often shoot movies. Do you only shoot one take when shooting a movie?"

After hearing this, the two sisters were still a little confused.

Seeing this, Xu Xiyu explained: "It is impossible to shoot a movie with only one take, which means that even if there are photos and videos of nude substitutes, it can't prove anything.

At that time, Chen Jing can say that in order to present a better picture effect, she used a stand-in to shoot a few shots and she also shot a few shots herself.

In the end, the main film used her own photo. Not only that, she could also take the opportunity to turn the tables and say that posting the photo of the stand-in was "causing harm to women."

Or, some people say that this is a stand-in taking advantage of the situation. To be honest, in this case, apart from the director and a few other core creators, no one knows whether Chen Jing actually filmed the scene.

At this time, if Chen Jing is smart enough, she can even set the pace herself and find some internet trolls to ask her to release the behind-the-scenes footage to prove herself.

You two, this is a nude scene. In the public's simple values, it is a bit excessive to show the nude scene behind the scenes to prove herself. She could have taken the opportunity to play a pity role, win sympathy, and turn a bad thing into a good thing. "

Xu Xiyu's words fell.

Sisters Li Shangrong and Li Shangling couldn't help but look at each other again.

Both sides saw a look of "shock" in each other's eyes, as if saying: How the hell is this possible?
After being shocked, Li Shangling laughed dryly and said, "Well, Mr. Xu, I think Chen Jing might not have thought of this."

Xu Xiyu smiled when he heard this. Of course, he had also thought that Chen Jing’s team might not have this brainpower.

However, he felt that the sisters Li Shangling came here this time with the intention of making conditions with him using this thing.

In this case, it is natural to describe the work of this thing as smaller, so as to lower the price.

Thinking of this, Xu Xiyu continued to smile and said, "I don't look down on anyone. I think they might be able to figure out that this is not a very remarkable way of operating.

However, it doesn't matter whether this thing is valuable or not. What matters is that you two are willing to help me at this time. So, what are your ideas and conditions?

You can ask boldly. I will not be stingy with what I can do. If I can’t do it, please don’t blame me.”

After these words were spoken, Li Shangling and Li Shangrong's expressions became even more unnatural.

To be honest, when the two of them came, they were full of confidence and thought they could do Xu Xiyu a big favor.

But after just two sentences, the situation instantly changed from him doing a favor for Xu Xiyu to Xu Xiyu rewarding him.

What the hell is this?

No wonder everyone says Xu Xiyu is difficult to deal with, he is indeed difficult to deal with.

Well, only such sponsor can last long.

Thinking of this, Li Shangling's eyes became a little warmer, and she decided to buy some "high-quality goods".

She said, "Boss Xu, I have something here. It's a recording of Qi Xiangyang at a meeting. It's the evidence that he plagiarized your book "All or Nothing."

After saying this, Li Shangling looked at Xu Xiyu with sharp eyes. She hoped to see Xu Xiyu be more excited.

As a result, Xu Xiyu laughed when he heard this and said, "What a coincidence, I also have this thing."

Xu Xiyu did have it. It was given to him by Du Chenshuang's secretary Zhu Anyu, because this recording was made by Du Chenshuang at the meeting.
