"It's scheduled to premiere on the same day as our show?"
Xiao He frowned. "Did they do this on purpose?"
Although only their "Royal Destiny" and "The Legend of Zhaohua" are palace intrigue dramas during the entire summer season, and they are competing products on different platforms, the investment scale of "Royal Destiny" is too small, far less than that of the large-scale and heavily invested "The Legend of Zhaohua". Normally, "The Legend of Zhaohua" would not take them seriously and would not deliberately target them in the same time slot.
Is it really possible that all these long summer movie seasons will be released on the same day?
What a coincidence?
"The female lead in 'The Legend of Zhaohua' is an artist under Xingchen Entertainment," Liu Rulan said. "Perhaps it's still related to Xingchen Entertainment."
Xiao He twitched the corner of his mouth: "How annoying."
They've already caused them trouble once, yet they're still secretly exerting their influence, trying to use their cannons to shoot down their small fish.
It really can't be that bad!
Xiao He really couldn't understand how a person could hold a grudge to this extent.
"It's really outrageous. That director Tannis has never contacted us! How come Qin Lezhang still holds a grudge against him?"
Xiao He was quite unconvinced and asked Liu Rulan again, "Sister Liu, has the studio really not received any work offers from overseas?"
He wouldn't say anything if he had already gotten his hands on the pie, but the problem is, he never saw this so-called film shooting invitation from director Tannis!
We haven't even seen a single person!
Xiao He simply couldn't understand or accept it.
"No, really." Liu Rulan was also somewhat helpless. "After that incident, I already inquired around. Director Tannis was indeed casting everywhere, but recently, for some reason, he suddenly went back to the United States and hasn't appeared since, nor has he mentioned casting again."
"Moreover, I have repeatedly reminded the studio. But since your character Xu Ning became a hit overseas, we have received some job offers from overseas, even from Hollywood, but not from there."
Liu Rulan was also confused.
If Xiao He were truly unknown abroad, then Director Tannis might need to spend some time screening and confirming his identity. However, Xiao He is now somewhat famous abroad, so it would be incredibly easy for Director Tannis to find him.
But here's the problem: since director Tannis hasn't contacted Xiao He or explicitly asked him to participate in his film, what's Qin Lezhang so anxious about?
Is this his role? He just broke down right there.
If Qin Lezhang hadn't lashed out at them in a fit of rage, they might not even have known that director Tannis was casting on set... So this whole thing was inexplicable, an undeserved disaster.
Xiao He and Liu Rulan were completely bewildered from beginning to end, unable to quite understand Qin Lezhang's thought process.
If possible, Xiao He would like to bring Qin Lezhang and Director Tannis together so that they can sit down and have a good talk about what exactly is going on.
Of course, that's impossible.
"It's fine. Since it's scheduled for the same period as us, it just adds to our popularity."
Liu Rulan comforted Xiao He, "Originally, 'The Imperial Decree' didn't have any outstanding promotional highlights. We were just lucky this time. There were many similar works during the summer season, and when various platforms were competing, they would mention our work in passing. This can be considered as us riding on their popularity."
