Chapter 245: Focusing on the top star?
"Little bastard!"
"Ok?"
Cursing as soon as you meet someone? This is not a good habit.
It has been a while since I last saw Liu Manli, this graceful lady. Perhaps because of this, Bai Youlou felt that she was not in a very good mood.
In addition to scolding him as soon as they met, Liu Manli's face was not as rosy as before, and she looked not very well.
Well, I guess I'm tired.
While Bai Youlou was slacking off and "not doing his job", our General Liu was working diligently, running around, and wishing to use all his connections.
To be honest, Liu Manli felt a little regretful. She should have brought in a few more companies to cooperate with her.
The beneficiaries of the drama "Dying to Survive" are her and Bai Youlou. The previous film "Daydreamer" had Huaxing backing them up. Lin Juntao has been a big boss in the circle for so many years. In all aspects, he is indeed much more capable than Liu Manli, who started out as a capitalist halfway through.
If she had brought him in, or simply divided the cake into a few more portions, Liu Manli would probably not have to work so hard.
It can be said that in order to ensure the smooth release of the movie, our General Liu almost sacrificed his life.
Fortunately, it was finally resolved relatively smoothly.
When she figured this out, Liu Manli was truly relieved.
At the same time it feels a bit strange.
Talented directors like Bai Youlou generally like to criticize something.
Many directors like to sneakily include their own personal opinions and thoughts into the film.
Anyway, Liu Manli doesn't believe that Bai Youlou really doesn't know what the real conflict in the movie is.
However, even so, the final approval was quite thrilling.
Liu Manli personally took the finished films and materials to report to her superiors, and by the way, she also learned one thing. It seems that Bai Youlou's name is registered with the higher-ups.
"Little bastard!"
"Scolding again? You're going too far!"
Bai Youlou said that he couldn't bear it anymore and thought he could just curse to satisfy his desire, but why did he cast the spell again?
As a result, Liu Manli leisurely took out her lipstick and a small mirror and touched up her lips beautifully.
Hey, now it looks much better.
Although her appearance wouldn't be affected too much even without makeup, she is in her thirties after all. Plus, she has been so tired recently, so it is inevitable that she will look tired.
It's amazing. Just by putting a little lipstick on my lips, my overall complexion has improved a lot.
The domineering queen of the entertainment industry seems to be back all of a sudden.
After finishing all this, Liu Manli spoke again, "Scolding you is too light, the movie is mine? You ran away with your movie and threw all the work to me, I owe you? You are such a shameless man, you are living off me!"
This scolding made Bai Youlou's eyes clearer.
He pointed at his nose, looking surprised, "Living like a gigolo? Me?"
"Yeah." Liu Manli rolled her eyes at him disdainfully, switched her legs, and changed her sitting position. "You relied on me to pass the review. You are a gigolo, aren't you?"
Bai Youlou rubbed his chin and said, "Not really. I remember that the GDP growth rate in the past two years was quite impressive. The economy is so good."
"What does this have to do with it?"
"The approval and release of sensitive films usually require the right time, right place, and right people. Do you remember when we officially started this project?"
Hearing this, Liu Manli narrowed her eyes and said, "When the medicine is included in the medical insurance."
Bai Youlou clapped his hands, "This is a good location."
"What is the weather?"
"The GDP growth rate is around seven points, and GDP has reached a new high. The country has become richer, people's living standards have improved, and the country has become stronger." Bai Youlou said with a smile.
Instant clarity!
The thin layer of mist dissipated.
However, Liu Manli widened her eyes and stared at Bai Youlou as if she saw a ghost.
"you you you"
"What's wrong?"
"How old are you?"
"Three years and two hundred and forty months."
Liu Manli: ???
She was a little confused for a moment, and subconsciously started counting with her fingers.
Fortunately, he reacted after two seconds and glared at Bai Youlou unhappily, "Why don't you just say 23? Are you trying to be cute with me?"
"You were the one who acted cute with me first. You came to me right after I got back. I was wondering."
"What are you thinking about? Xiao Yuan or Nana?" Liu Manli suddenly asked with a smile.
"Of course." Bai Youlou seemed to be fooled, but he didn't stop talking and continued, "I want both."
"You little bastard, you shameless guy, you're eyeing the girls in my company, right? After you leave me, these two are all I'll have left!"
Liu Manli really couldn't bear it anymore.
After knowing that Jiang Yuanchu was hooked up by that bastard Bai Youlou, she found it hard to accept.
In the end, considering Jiang Yuanchu's mental illness, he reluctantly accepted it.
As a result, when I turned around, I received news that something was wrong with Nanako too!
This is too much!
Is this bastard Bai Youlou treating her Manli Entertainment as a brothel?
Are you specifically targeting the top star?
The key point is that this guy didn't even let her, the "madam", go. Liu Manli's brain froze for a moment. After all, it was too explosive for her to use such a name to scold herself.
But she doesn't care!
The reason I came here today, besides discussing the movie promotion issues with Bai Youlou, is to cause trouble for him!
This shameless guy must be punished.
There are several young girls in her company who are good-looking and have hot bodies. If this continues, Bai Youlou will catch them all in one fell swoop!
Liu Manli said that she started the company not to make it easier for Bai Youlou to have a harem.
"I'm in a passive position and have nothing to do with you." Seeing that Liu Manli was getting anxious, Bai Youlou naturally wanted to pass on the blame.
"You, passive?"
"I'll cheat you into death."
Bai Youlou would really dare to say this to any other girl, but Jiang Yuanchu and Nanazi, these two opponents are really more proactive than the other.
Jiang Yuanchu’s main attack is direct, while Nanazi’s main attack is counter-attack.
They can also be called Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick.
Oh yes, we can’t forget Liu Manli.
She was arguing with Bai Youlou, the elder sister is still very powerful~
There is a degree of relaxation.
"You are the only one listed in your household registration, right?" Liu Manli sneered.
"You can be included, too."
"Really? Who doesn't want to die with you, a bastard? You have no shame!"
"Oh, you're blushing!"
Bai Youlou seemed to have seen some rare sight. He sat up from the sofa and took a closer look at Liu Manli's face.
It’s really popular!
"Get lost"
Seeing that she was having trouble convincing Bai Youlou, Liu Manli changed the subject again, "I don't care anymore, okay? But I'm warning you."
"You know your warning is useless."
Bai Youlou looked at her with a smile until Liu Manli took the initiative to look away.
After a few seconds of silence, Liu Manli, who had no idea what was going on in her mind, asked, "Where are the people?" "Huh?"
"The right time, right place and right people are needed to pass the review. You haven't even mentioned the right people yet."
How can you remember this halfway through?
Bai Youlou completely relaxed his body and lay down on Liu Manli's legs as if he was going to die.
He had wanted to lie down before, but his sister wouldn't let him and pushed him away.
This time she didn't push him away, but she reached out and grabbed a pillow to act as a barrier.
A little embarrassed.
After all, this bastard Bai Youlou is a bit perverted. He really dares to turn his head and get closer to smell it.
"Renhe. Of course it's you, Liu Manli."
When Liu Manli was called by her full name, her body felt as if it had been electrocuted and she shivered subconsciously.
Looking down at Bai Youlou who was resting with his eyes closed but with a smile on his face, I couldn't help but smile along with him.
He shook his head helplessly, "My enemy, get up, we have to talk about business."
enemy?
This title is similar to Zhang Xiaorong's "little ancestor".
"I can talk about serious matters even when I'm lying on your lap. Don't look down on me."
"Then let's just take off our clothes and talk on the bed." Liu Manli said without any fear.
This really hit Bai Youlou's sore spot.
No, no, no~
One by one, they do this as soon as they disagree with something.
Bai Youlou is a gentleman now!
The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water.
It hasn't recovered yet, so there's only water left.
Bai Youlou, who was unintentionally manipulated, had no choice but to stand up and cooperate, "Just make the decision on the publicity plan, no need to ask me."
"No matter how useful I am, you can't use me to death!"
Liu Manli suddenly got angry and seemed really angry.
"Then why don't we just promote it step by step? Lu Wenyuan is such a famous dog. Let him appear on more shows and post more Weibo. He will definitely be able to trick many female fans into going to the cinema and contributing to the box office. Maybe they will even watch it several times."
"Of course Lu Wenyuan has to cooperate with the promotion. I'm talking about you. Have you talked to Huaxing? Does Qiu Yanran have time to come?"
Master, stop reading!
Bai Youlou closed his eyes, but Liu Manli forcibly pulled them open again, "Don't play dead. The speed of the train depends on the locomotive. You are the director and the male lead. If you don't carry the banner, who will?"
"You're full of jingles. Are you going to take the postgraduate entrance exam?"
"Hey? How did you know?"
Liu Manli looked "shy" and asked, "Who told you that I am now a graduate student in the directing department of the Film Academy?"
Bai Youlou: ???
"Ah? You? Director?"
Liu Manli nodded with a smile on her face. She seemed calm, but in fact she was very proud.
However, Bai Youlou was only slightly surprised and had no intention of wanting to know more.
He did not comment on Liu Manli's active approach to him.
There are directors in every profession.
It's not a rare thing.
What's wrong with our CEO Liu wanting to be a director for fun? Is that weird?
We have been talking for a long time, but we still haven't come to a conclusion about the issue of publicity.
Of course, normal publicity strategies do not require Liu Manli and Bai Youlou to worry about anything.
The subordinates had already prepared the rules and regulations.
It is time to go on shows and show your face.
What Liu Manli really wanted to talk about was whether Bai Youlou had some special publicity strategies.
Regarding publicity, many of the things Bai Youlou did when his previous films were released can be regarded as classic publicity cases.
Many corporate publicity departments have conducted in-depth research.
But most people wouldn’t even dare to think about imitating it!
However, Liu Manli said that she "owns" Bai Youlou himself, so of course she can imagine it.
Come on! Come up with an explosive idea!
Bai Youlou:
I always feel that this woman is inexplicably excited.
"Let's hype up the scandal." Bai Youlou was too lazy to think and just threw out a common publicity method.
"You and Qiu Yanran?"
"I can also go with you, plus Jiang Yuanchu and Nanazi. I don't mind."
"I care! No! Just talk to Qiu Yanran at most, don't drag 'innocent people' into this.
What do you mean by at most with Qiu Yanran? Have you asked Lin Juntao what he thinks?
How embarrassing!
If gossip doesn't work.
Bai Youlou rubbed his chin and came up with a weird idea, "How about doing something to Lu Wenyuan?"
Liu Manli's eyes lit up. "How do we do this?"
"This guy is a dog licker"
Liu Manli was very excited about gossip. She could eat half a pound of melon seeds when she heard about Lu Wenyuan's licking of An Luning but failing to get her.
However, after thinking about it, it seemed a bit impolite to involve An Luning in such a matter.
Liu Manli quite likes An Luning, she is her little fan.
Of course, if it can really be used to add some heat to the movie.
She, Liu Manli, is now a capital in the circle.
Capital is so ruthless!
Unfortunately, just as the two were plotting and preparing to do something, Lao Zhou rushed upstairs panting.
"Brother Lou, something happened!"
"Quaa?"
“I don’t see anything.”
Damn it!
Old Zhou was so anxious that he didn't even take the elevator, but ran up the stairs directly.
So we happened to see Bai Youlou hugging Liu Manli, and the two of them kissing each other.
He was so scared that he broke out in a sweat.
Then, under the puzzled gazes of Bai Youlou and Liu Manli, he closed his eyes, retreated step by step to the stairs, and closed the door.
Before the two of them figured out what this guy wanted to do, they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Brother Lou, something happened, are you there?!"
"Pfft~"
Liu Manli was a little nervous.
This Xiao Zhou is quite humorous.
However, when he came in again, he still saw Bai Youlou hugging Liu Manli.
Damn it, destroy it!
You don't avoid people at all, do you?!
"What happened?" Bai Youlou asked.
Lao Zhou took a deep breath and stopped dwelling on the situation. He said in a deep voice, "Aqiang and his wife have made a big fuss!"
Bai Youlou, Liu Manli: ???
