How did I become famous?

Chapter 32 Movie Promotion

Half an hour later, Fang Bie and his two companions arrived at the entrance of a five-star hotel.

Yan Shuangying was still riding his pink scooter.

Fang Bie rode a bicycle with Su Mulin on the back—the young lady seemed to have taken a liking to this mode of transportation, which made her feel like her girlish heart was bursting.

Of course, the last sentence was Fang Bie's inner monologue.

You should know that the young lady is over 1.7 meters tall and has a top-notch figure. In addition to the curves in the right places, her long, shapely legs are so beautiful that you could look at them for a year without getting tired of them.

How could she possibly be light?

Fang estimated that her weight was at least over 100 pounds.

Riding a bicycle carrying a 100-pound person for over ten kilometers must have been incredibly exhausting for Fang.

After parking the car, leaving Yan Shuangying to rest in the hotel lobby, Fang Bie followed Su Mulin up to the tenth floor.

"Young Miss, I didn't expect your second brother to be no ordinary person either. By the way, why are we here to see him?"

Standing at the door of suite number 1024, Fang Bie asked the question he had been thinking about all the way.

Because he remembered that Old Man Su had said that his second son, Su Zhe, was a film critic.

Could it be that this young lady is planning another shady scheme?

However, judging from the effect of the last "behind-the-scenes" incident, it probably won't be very good either.

So it's not for the sake of film reviews.

What else could it be for?

Fang Bie thought about it carefully and realized something.

When parents use their children to show off, they usually boast about how amazing their child is.

But some people use their children to show off, and like to say that their children are no good.

Just like in ancient times when introducing family members, people would say things like "my unworthy son," "my humble wife," or "my unworthy spouse"...

Old Man Su said that his eldest son, Su Shi, was just a songwriter, but in fact, in addition to being a great songwriter and lyricist, he was also the youngest dean in the history of Kyoto University's Bunka Gakuin and the youngest vice president in the history of Kyoto University.

So what is the background of Su Zhe, the second son who is "just a film critic"?

Thinking of Su Zhe, who could have been a name in history books, Fang Bie suddenly felt uneasy.

What does the young lady want with him here?

Su Mulin ignored his thoughts and simply went up and knocked on the door.

dong dong dong-

The door opened, and a handsome man in a white shirt appeared before the two of them.

This handsome man looks to be around thirty years old, and his appearance is about 80% similar to Su Shi.

However, his temperament did not appear as spirited as Su Shi's; instead, it was more reserved and composed.

Su Zhe smiled and said, "Little sister is here," then fixed his eyes on Fang Bie, his gaze full of scrutiny.

"This must be the director Fang Biefang that you insisted I meet, little sister. Please come in."

Fang Bie smirked. This second brother's words were laced with barbs. Could he be a siscon?

Otherwise, who would spend over four million to "buy" a used car worth one and a half million, especially since the car doesn't even have proper paperwork? He probably already returned the car to his brother.

Upon entering the house, one is greeted by the aroma of steaming hot tea to ward off the chill.

The three sat down, and after a few pleasantries, the Su siblings turned their attention to Fang Bie, who was pretending to be dead.

Su Erge's gaze searched: "Could this be the legendary Mr. Fang Biefang?"

The legendary one?

Su Mulin frowned: "What do you mean? You know him?"

"How could I not know?" Second Brother Su lowered his head and took a sip of tea, a smile on his face. "Your eldest brother praises him every day, saying he's the best in the world. Dad also praises him from time to time. It's hard for me not to know."

"Praise..." Su Mulin suddenly looked up, her sharp eyes piercing Su Zhe's heart. "They wouldn't be trying to cause trouble for Fang Bie's movie, would they?"

Her elder brother failed to win over Fang Bie, so he harbored resentment and waited for an opportunity to take revenge.

She ran away from home, and her father must have been very unhappy about it.

That would really make it difficult for other movies.

The young lady thought about it more and more and found it to make sense, so her gaze became increasingly sharp.

Before Su Zhe could react, Fang Bie, who was next to her, turned his head away uncomfortably, not daring to look her in the eye.

Good heavens! Why is this young lady's intuition so strong?

Although she didn't guess everything correctly, she was pretty close.

Old Su, Old Su, why can't you keep your mouth shut when you're online? If this keeps up, won't I, "Sea Serpent," be exposed?

Su Mulin didn't notice his unnatural expression, but Su Erge across from him did.

But he just smiled and said nothing, instead saying, "Don't worry, they definitely won't stop you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to see you."

"Right, Xiao Fang?"

Fang forced a smile: "You're absolutely right."

This guy... does he know something?

Su Mulin's expression softened slightly: "Then will you help us or not?"

"Help? Of course I'll help." Su Zhe took another sip of tea and said casually, "Once your movie is released, I will definitely write a rave review. I believe it will add eight figures to your movie's box office."

Eight figures?!

Su Mulin's face lit up with joy, but Fang Bie spoke first.

He looked distressed and said, "There's...there's no need for that. What if the movie flops? Your reputation will be ruined!"

He knew a little about the fact that Su Zhe was one of the top film critics in the country.

Su Erge didn't care at all: "It's okay, I became a film critic just out of interest anyway. I just started writing for fun, I never expected to become one of the top in the industry, and I didn't want to."

Fang Bie: "..."

Damn it! They really are a family. All four of them are total show-offs!

He smirked, "But I don't like underhanded tactics. I think it's better to let the film itself speak for itself."

Miss Su looked at Fang Bie with a stern gaze: "That's not what you said when you wrote the end credits song for the movie."

Fang responded with a righteous look: "Writing songs and making movies are different, and I never agreed to your pre-arranged deals."

Since he didn't say anything, it can be taken as either a yes or a no.

"Times have changed, Director Fang." The young lady's eyes narrowed slightly. "These days, even the best wine needs advertising."

"You're right, it seems you've grown quite a bit, little sister." Su Zhe said with a smile, "These days, movies can't do without 'promotion.' Good promotion can elevate your movie to a higher level. If the movie's quality isn't bad, the ascent is exponential."

But I don't want it to rise; I just want it to rest in peace... Fang Bie shook his head and said calmly, "I still stand by my opinion."

"Fang Bie, stop talking..." Su Mulin lowered her head, her left hand tightly gripping her right wrist.

She knows.

Based on Fang Bie's previous behavior, he didn't care about any of this.

The reason Fang refused was because her investment was only seven million.

We really don't have the money to do any more advertising.

Su Mulin raised her head and said softly, "I'm not the same person I used to be. After what happened yesterday, I've realized something. Too naive a person will find it hard to survive in society. So..."

She looked at Su Erge and said, "Brother, can I borrow your publicity company?"

She should make good use of her background!

Since God has given her such a good background, it would be a real waste not to use it.

She glanced at the dumbfounded Fang Bie, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

We should all thank this guy.

Originally, I was just an innocent and naive girl who thought I could solve everything on my own.

But Fang Bie's lesson yesterday told her that wasn't the case.

And so, the girl named Su Mulin grew up.

The price, then, needs to be paid by this "teacher," Fang Bie.

"Wait a minute! We really have no money left!"

"It's alright." Brother Su smiled with satisfaction. "Use it as you like, I won't charge you."

Fang Bie: "..."
