Chapter 188 Bai Youlou: I really keep myself clean

How much does it cost to support a female artist of Liu Manli's level?

This is a good question. Bai Youlou is actually not quite sure about it.

So he went online and asked for help from the omnipotent netizens, anonymously of course.

If he were to do something like this on his Weibo account, Liu Manli would jump up and chop him to pieces.

However, after asking this question on a certain website using a secondary account, he did not wait for the answer. He just wanted to tease Liu Manli.

And~
High school uniforms are really awesome!
Who would still have the energy to watch the fun of netizens online?
But it was not hung.

Even Jiang Yuanchu had never let him try such a cruel job. It was not that the girl was unwilling to try it, she was very brave and wanted to try everything. The main reason was that this thing could easily leave marks on the body, which were not easy to cover up and explain.

He was having a great time, but his classmate An Luning, who was still filming in a certain crew, was "unlucky".

She is filming a TV series. According to Sister Hong, with the endorsement of the performance of "Before Sunrise", she can really just make movies in the future and officially become a TV star.

But what you can’t get will always cause you unrest.

In the past, An Luning kept clamoring to make movies, but after she became famous through movies, she was not so worried about it anymore.

The TV series is pretty good, but the movie is nothing special.

There was no way. Bai Youlou only spent such a short time to make a movie that made her "soar to fame". It was really difficult for An Luning to continue to maintain that "pilgrimage"-like view of movies.

It's also an alternative way of thinking.

After the mystery of the movie disappeared in her eyes, it seemed like that was just the way it was.

If she were a normal artist, Sister Hong would probably force her to make movies to maintain her status and take her career to the next level.

But clearly, she wasn't normal.

Sister Hong: So, as long as you are happy~
But this choice made An Lu Ning's reputation better. Even though he had been to Berlin, he was willing to come and film a TV series.

Although this project was discussed before, no contract was signed. Even if a contract was signed, paying a penalty would not be a big deal for An Luning.

But she still came to shoot.

This immediately made the creators of the show feel very good about her: She is a movie star and yet she is willing to come. This girl must have really good character!
Then, her biological mother came to check on her.

This is something that is worth shuddering about for any "naughty" child.

Fortunately, An Luning said that he has always been his mother's little cotton-padded jacket, darling and happy pill.

So I'm not afraid at all~
"mom!"

"How old are you? Why are you still trying to get into your mother's arms~"

While An Mengyu asked her secretary to distribute the purchased things to the entire crew, she hugged her baby daughter and was very affectionate with her.

Everyone in the crew: They are beautiful and kind-hearted, just the same!

Whenever they come to the crew, they treat each other. The mother and daughter have exactly the same style.

At the same time, the beautiful sight of this pair of beauties posing together is truly eye-catching.

My goodness, didn’t someone spread rumors online that An Luning had plastic surgery?

Judging from her mother's appearance, the two are almost 60% to 70% similar. Unless the mother and daughter go together and get a set meal.

Unfortunately, we were not able to enjoy it for too long, as the secretary, assistant, bodyguards and others consciously began to block the view of those around them.

Especially when it blocks some people who want to take pictures with their phones.
"Mom, why are you here so suddenly? This is the first time you come to visit me openly."

After being intimate with each other, An Luning became a little curious. Her mother used to be very low-key. Even when she came to see her, she did it secretly. She would always wait in the hotel and would not come to the crew.

But today he showed up on the set in broad daylight, which was really strange.

"The situation this time is special. I just came here to do some work and visit you. I have to leave soon."

"what?"

An Luning immediately became unwilling. Why should he leave just like that?

However, her mother's next words made her freeze on the spot, "I've met that Director Bai~"

"Hey?!"

Seeing her daughter's strange expression, An Mengyu was overjoyed. She stretched out her hand and rubbed her fleshy little nose. "Baby, why are you so nervous? Mommy won't eat him."

An Luning:
How should I put it? I'm not nervous.

It just feels weird.

She hasn't gotten to know Bai Youlou yet, and they can't even confirm their relationship. Although they've kissed a lot, they're not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Although An Luning was a little silly about this, he was able to recognize it clearly.

Recently, she was worried that she might have to compete with her best friend and sister for a man, but then her parents met Bai Youlou one after another and launched a surprise attack.

To be honest, this puts a lot of pressure on An Luning~
She was worried that Bai Youlou might think too much and think that she was putting pressure on him in this way.
How can you meet someone’s parents before even starting a relationship?

Last time he could still shirk responsibility and put the blame on Lin Juntao.

Of course, An Lu Ning did so.

What about this time?

again!

"Mom, I'm going to be angry if you do this!"

How can a mother not know what her daughter is thinking? An Mengyu immediately apologized, "It's my fault. I couldn't help it. I just wanted to see what kind of young talent our baby is so obsessed with. But when we met..."

Although he didn't want to answer, An Lu Ning couldn't help but asked, "What's wrong with meeting?"

After all, she was still a little worried that her mother would speak badly of Bai Youlou.
Her mother smiled and said, "He is indeed a young talent, the type that mother likes."

"Ah? Mom, do you like it?"

thump~
He raised his hand and tapped the little girl's head, "What are you thinking about?"

"Oh, I'm wrong!" An Luning quickly admitted her mistake, then hugged her mother's arm and shook it coquettishly, "What should I do? If you and dad put pressure on him like this, he might think I'm crazy. If he's scared, what will happen to our family?"

"You can't catch up by yourself." An Mengyu said confidently.

An Luning's face suddenly fell. How could his words only hurt others?

She, she, it’s not that she can’t catch up, it’s just that the relationship has not been confirmed!

Different!

As I said, Bai Youlou has admitted that he likes her, so the rest can be taken slowly.

An Luning said he was not that anxious.
Her mother: No, I’m anxious!

"Daughter, you don't understand! Once you've chosen someone, you have to act quickly. Listen to your mother. I'll give you some advice. Confirm your relationship this year, get married next year, and have a child the year after. By then, you can enjoy your life while your father and I train the next generation. By then, you and we won't have to take over the family business. How great!"

A good one is to talk this year, get married next year, and have children the year after next.
This is so efficient!
An Luning's face turned red. She was not a piglet, how could she give birth to a baby? !
I seriously suspect that my mother is looking for someone to take over.
It seemed that he realized that An Luning definitely didn't want to do business in the future, so he didn't rely on her and directly targeted her next generation.

After all, An Mengyu and Bai Xingzu are only in their forties. If they really follow their process, by the time the next generation grows up, they may only be in their sixties or seventies, and that would be enough!

In response to this, An Luning could only say: Mom, you don’t know how powerful my “competitor” is!
As for this "terrible opponent" Zhang Xiaorong, she felt that if she were a boy, she would probably want to marry her!
An Luning has recently studied the advantages and disadvantages of himself and Zhang Xiaorong.
She has a slight advantage in height, reaching 1.7 meters, while Zhang Xiaorong is only over 1.6 meters.

As for the figure... let's not talk about it. Zhang Xiaorong's is too unfair, it's simply cheating.

Appearance! An Lu Ning felt that he should have a slight advantage.

As for personality, it all depends on personal taste. One is gentle and virtuous, the other is lively and cute.

Oh yes, An Lu Ning originally thought that his family being rich was an advantage.

Now, this may be a disadvantage.

Her family has too high expectations, wanting her to be a live-in-law!
If Bai Youlou had nothing or had just started his career, it would not be impossible, but he made so much money in the blink of an eye. It can almost be said that he was financially free and had no shortage of money.

Then why should I compromise and become a son-in-law?

To sum up, An Luning felt that he really had no advantages, and for the first time in his life he felt a little inferior.

An Mengyu: Don’t be afraid, my daughter. Mom will help you.
Today, the mother and daughter opened their hearts to each other.

An Luning told all his thoughts and worries to his mother.

Okay, now it’s mom’s turn to give me some advice.

Is there any solution for this?

An Mengyu: It’s really difficult! Why don’t we start with the money?

Although Bai Youlou's career is going quite smoothly now, he has achieved so many results in a short period of time.

But when it comes to making movies, no director can say that he will always make money.

Capital is very cruel. An Jia is capital himself, so he naturally knows this.

Bai Youlou is indeed not short of money now, but can he really be rich all his life?

Anyway, from An Mengyu's point of view, the current Baiyoulou seems to be flourishing and prosperous.

But for those who succeed young, the probability of falling into traps is quite high.

When success comes too quickly, everything seems too easy and it is easy to become arrogant.

In fact, this has always been Bai Youlou's image and style.

It's almost as if the word "arrogant" was written on his forehead.

It's just that he has never failed so far, so most of the comments about him are flattery.

But if this kind of behavior fails or if you make a big mistake, there will definitely be a lot of people who will come out to take advantage of you.

By then, not everyone on the Internet will be calling him "Brother Lou". All the "evil" he has done will be dug up and put under "judgment".

Why does An Mengyu feel that Bai Youlou will be able to give this opportunity soon?

The information comes from Lin Juntao.

His original words were: Huaxing is a little hesitant to invest more in Bai Youlou's next film because the subject matter is too sensitive and it will be very troublesome to pass the review and release it.
What this means is that Bai Youlou’s previous films were too smooth, so he wanted something exciting, and his artist’s “disease” broke out.

Lin Juntao is not optimistic about the project "Dying to Survive".

An Mengyu felt that Lin Juntao was a professional in the film industry and must have more experience than Bai Youlou, a young man.

Of course, Bai Youlou’s talent cannot be denied. It is purely a matter of experience and mentality.

If he falls flat on his face, then An Luning, the "little angel", will appear beside him and tell him: "Go ahead and take the photo. My family is rich!" Even if the whole world is against you, I will still stand by your side.

That brat must be so touched that he'll die.

This trick is tacky, but definitely works.

An Mengyu would never tell An Luning that this was how she dealt with Bai Xingzu, who was starting a business.

"But, if he fails, he will be very sad, right? I have to remind him."

After hearing his mother's plan, An Luning was not happy. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and wanted to send a "warning" to Bai Youlou.

Her mother did not stop her from doing this.

Look, there is one more "favorable condition", and my daughter is kind.

There is no need to set up any trap for Bai Youlou at all. This is not a conspiracy, but a real conspiracy. Nothing else, just a sincere heart.

If a girl treats you like this, it's impossible not to be moved, unless your heart is made of stone.

The holy monk almost died when he passed through the Kingdom of Women, let alone a man of Bai Youlou's temperament.

Just when An Mengyu thought that her son-in-law was secure, there was suddenly some commotion in the crew.

Suddenly, no one paid attention to An Luning, and some people were whispering to each other with their phones in hand.

An Luning is very experienced in this regard. "It must be that something happened in the entertainment industry again and it became a hot topic. That's why it happened."

"Oh~"

Her mother, An Mengyu, is not very interested in things in the entertainment industry. She only knows celebrities like Liu Manli, and she doesn't know many of them in total.

However, Sister Hong took out her cell phone with professional ethics to see what happened, and then she took a breath.

There was even a bit of confusion on his face. Looking at the particularly familiar name on the hot search, he even felt a bit unfamiliar.

“You guys should take a look too.”

Sister Hong, who had been listening to the mother and daughter's plan throughout, handed over the phone with a complicated expression.

An Lu Ning took it and looked at it, "Wow!"

"what happened?"

“He made a lot of money!”

"How many?"

"Two hundred million! One of his songs is worth so much money! It's amazing~" An Luning said happily.

What the hell? !

It is obvious that this hot search is a hype. The sky-high price of buying songs must be exposed. The company has spent so much money, so naturally it wants to gain more popularity for publicity effect.

However, even Bai Youlou himself did not expect that the effect of this group of mobile phone makers would be so direct.

I don’t know which marketing account was hired to write this article, but it produced such an exaggerated article.

In fact, the core can be summarized in one sentence: the English song written by Bai Youlou was bought out by a certain brand at a sky-high price.

But this number of words is too small and needs to be fully developed and expanded.

Marketing accounts can’t do this job, so we have to find online writers because they are the best at writing watery articles.

As a result, singers and songwriters in the domestic entertainment industry were in trouble, and the stars on last year’s Forbes Celebrity List were also in trouble.

Pull them all out for a walk.

The main idea is that there is no harm without comparison.

By the way, increase the "hatred value" to the maximum!
Is it ok, little dogs?
You only make a few bucks. Isn't it said that money is easy to make in the entertainment industry? You can't do that either. You work so hard for a whole year, but a song that Bai Youlou wrote in five minutes is not worth the money?

This is obviously a substitution of concepts. Bai Youlou cannot find such a "sucker" in every song. It is estimated that this will be the only time in his life.

It is an extremely low probability event.

The result was that it was written as if Bai Youlou could make 200 million just by writing a song. Yes, that was rounded off.

If it weren't for the fact that this number is already shocking enough and no one would believe it if it were any larger, the article would have dared to round it up to 1 billion.

This is actually not the first time that Bai Youlou has been on the hot search because of the money he made, but the last time was because his movie sold well overseas.

The effort put into a movie is obviously not on the same level as that put into a song. That movie also won Bai Youlou the Best Actor award at the Cannes Film Festival.

In everyone's opinion, although the money is a lot, it is well worth it.

This is too outrageous. How can a song be sold for so much money? This is a lie.

Many netizens commented: It looks fake at first glance.

As a result, the company personally came out to "refute the rumors."

He said: It's not as exaggerated as 200 million! It only cost 80 million to buy out the copyright, which is very cheap. The remaining 35 million is Zhang Xiaorong's endorsement fee, and the rest is Bai Youlou's appearance fee and production fee for the commercial.
People who eat melon:? ? ? ?

No, are you serious? You call this a rumor refutation?
This "rumor-busting" immediately raised the popularity to a new level, and finally became the number one hot search.

There are even a bunch of people who have started to help Bai Youlou calculate his net worth.
He also said that things like celebrity lists are bullshit. This year's celebrity list didn't even put Bai Youlou in the top ten, and his income was only over 10 million.

What about the liar? !

The celebrities on the list feel aggrieved: I only count the income from film pay, endorsements, etc. The income from investments is too difficult to include. Some of them don’t even know the specific investment and profit-sharing ratios, so how can I calculate it?

What endorsements does Bai Youlou have? Besides promoting movies, how many announcements has he taken?

In short, this kind of topic has been spreading like wildfire on the Internet. Even Bai Youlou's fans have started talking about it and teasing Bai Youlou: Brother Lou makes so much money, but the red envelopes he gives to his brothers are only fifty yuan.

After eating the melon, An Luning looked at his mother, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

The little expression was extremely cute, but her mother tapped her forehead.

"Ouch, that hurts~" She covered her head and started to pretend to be ignorant.

But An Mengyu did not expose her poor performance. Instead, she frowned in distress and showed the same cute expression.

It's just that one is happy and the other is sad.

This is bad! This prospective son-in-law is too good at making money. Why does he make so much money at such a young age? It will not be good for his future struggle!

The fatter Bai Youlou's wallet is, the smaller the advantage that An Luning's family has becomes. As a result, she really can't rely on her "money power" to seduce men.

What can I do?
An Luning leaned his head on his mother's shoulder and cheered her on!

"Mom, can you help me think of another way~"

"Let's use the old method first. Darling, you should try your best. If a girl wants a boy, it's easy. If it doesn't work, just confess your love publicly. I won't believe it."

Ouch, is this "getting angry out of shame"?

Sister Hong really couldn't bear to listen any more. What a bad idea!
And publicly confessed?

An Lu Ning would really do this, she has wanted to do this for a long time!
Why are you, as a mother, still encouraging her?
Sister Hong figured out that Lu Bao's love-brained personality might be inherited from her mother. Her mother seemed to be a master at giving advice, but in fact, she only had those three tricks.

Those three tricks were able to deal with An Luning's father, so they gave her mother great confidence and made her feel like she was an expert at flirting with men.

But it would be a miracle if this thing could make Bai Youlou.
The difference between science and engineering men and art men is huge!

Emotionally, these two are simply not the same species.

Sister Hong finally stood up and said, "Forget it, why don't you listen to my advice."

"Um?!"

The mother and daughter both showed expressions of "being saved".

Please, please, please take a seat!
-
At the same time as the "200 million incident" was exposed, the box office of "Daydreamer" had already exceeded 1.7 billion, and it was only more than 20 million away from reaching 1.8 billion.

So Huaxing held a grand celebration banquet, and the box office figure posted on the spot was 1.8 billion.

No problem, celebrate in advance.

However, Bai Youlou felt something strange at the celebration banquet.

Mainly the looks from the people around me.
Bai Youlou was too lazy to pay attention to the look in the man's eyes. As for the look in the eyes of some female stars, it was as if they were looking at Tang Monk's flesh.

This is different from previous expressions, which used to be three parts charm, three parts flattery, three parts respect, and ninety-one parts confusion.

Women are too complicated, it’s impossible to figure them out.

But now it was much more "straightforward", almost full of passion, as if wanting to swallow him whole.

The most outrageous thing is that when he was talking to Lin Juntao just now, Qiu Yanran next to him looked at him with a strange look in her eyes and even secretly flirted with him.
"Why are these people looking at me like that? Like me?"

Hearing Bai Youlou's words, Liu Manli laughed, but did not scold him for being narcissistic again. Instead, she said, "Everyone thinks you can make money. You should be more careful next time."

"Be careful? Be careful about what?"

"Be careful someone pokes a hole in the condom."

Blanch! Not really~
However, Bai Youlou thought that in another time and space, a super rich second-generation person might not have escaped this trick. He had an extra child who asked him for money for milk powder every day on the Internet.

It was very embarrassing.

Because this guy had once made fun of another rich second-generation man who had someone bring his child to his house and cause a scene at his engagement party.

The boomerang hit his face.
Besides puncturing the condom, there are even more brutal methods.

In Europe and the United States, there was a 40-year-old cleaner who found a small umbrella used by a rich man in the trash can. He masturbated and had a child with him. He then asked for child support.

Of course, this news seems to be fake, but it also illustrates the horror of certain things.

Bai Youlou is not afraid of this.

He is a man who keeps himself clean.

That’s right, in the entertainment industry, Bai Youlou can most likely be considered as someone who keeps himself clean.

How can he not be considered clean if he doesn't have sex with fans and doesn't have promiscuous relationships?

As for the girls he knew and had relationships with? It all happened naturally, as long as he had the right feeling.

As the saying goes, when love is deep, it will be over.

In short, he is quite picky about taste and the quality is very high. He does not like to go out to hunt for food.

If this were a Chinese entertainment novel written by a hippopotamus, there would already be a long list of names like Bingbing, Xixi, Tiantian, Shishi, Tangtang, and Mimi! Conservative estimates would be more than 10 or 20.

Bai Youlou: I really keep myself clean.

Liu Manli actually agreed with this because she knew more.

In an environment where everyone is comparing who is worse, this brat Bai Youlou is not that bad.

Damn, this is one of the reasons why she has been single for so long.

"Hey, no more chatting, time to get on stage and get ready to smash the ice sculptures!"

I came to the stage with Liu Manli and a group of people stood in front of an ice sculpture.

The ice sculpture number is of course the box office of 1.8 billion.

Everyone was given a hammer, and they were going to smash this thing together later.

It means “breaking 1.8 billion”.

However, before that, there still has to be a "leadership speech", and here comes Lin Juntao to "fulfill his promise".

Red envelope session.

"Brother Bai, we agreed before that if the box office sells well, I will give you a 5 million red envelope. I am a man of my words."

"What a coincidence! I remember that too, Lao Zhou."

"coming."

Old Zhou smiled and took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Bai Youlou, who then handed it to Lin Juntao.

"Eight million."
