Qiu Ling and Song Yu were still somewhat taken aback by what had happened at the airport.
However, Gu Weiwei had anticipated this outcome, so she responded calmly and composedly.
As soon as she got in the car, she sent a WeChat message to Fu Hanzheng.
[Uncle Fu, I'm back!]
She guessed he was busy with work or in a meeting at that time, so she didn't call him directly, but only sent a WeChat message to let him know she was back.
Two minutes later, Fu Hanzheng called back.
Where are we now?
"We're on our way to a hotel near the premiere, but it's taking too long, and we won't be able to get back in time," Gu Weiwei sighed.
Fu Hanzheng: "What time will it end?"
Gu Weiwei thought for a moment and then said.
"I should be able to get home before midnight."
After the premiere, there were interviews, and since directing is different from acting, I also had to confirm the follow-up publicity.
With major cinemas having previously cancelled screenings of "Half Awake," and the film officially set to release in three days, she had to get everything arranged today.
"Shall I come pick you up?" Fu Hanzheng asked.
"No need, I'll go back with Third Young Master," Gu Weiwei quickly said.
He's been quite busy with work lately, and picking her up would take up too much of his time.
Fu Hanzheng thought for a moment, then said, "Okay."
I handed over my work to Fu Shiqin in advance that evening, so he could go to the company a little later tomorrow.
"See you at home tonight." Gu Weiwei said goodbye to him and hung up the phone.
As soon as she arrived at the hotel, Qiao Lin and his publicity team were already waiting there. Upon seeing her, they immediately spoke as if seeking praise.
"See? I've solved it perfectly."
Gu Weiwei asked, "How's the movie's screening schedule going right now?"
"They used to treat us like royalty and cancel our screenings, but now they're begging us to screen our films like grandsons. They've already got people arranging it," Qiao Lin said smugly.
Previously, those people withdrew their screenings because of Li Xin'er, and some even said they would never screen their films again.
Last night, they started crying and begging like cowards to give "Half Awake" screenings, and they even canceled screenings of "That Year, I Met You" on their own.
Gu Weiwei nodded. Now that she and the movie have reached unprecedented popularity, these people will profit from it. Of course, without them even saying it, they will be vying to give them screenings again.
"Where's the Third Young Master?"
"He just finished his appearance and is already on his way," Qiao Lin said.
The two entered the elevator and returned to their room. Gu Weiwei leaned back on the sofa, squinting her eyes as she rested and asked a question.
"What's Li Xin'er's reaction now?"
Given Li Xin'er's personality, she wouldn't be so willing to accept that.
"Her agency is making a fuss about terminating her contract, wanting to sever ties with her as soon as possible, but Li Xin'er hasn't signed the termination agreement yet," Qiao Lin said gloatingly.
Gu Weiwei: "She will definitely hire an outside team to whitewash her image."
"If we had known she would pull this stunt, Third Young Master would have made some arrangements. Now, no PR team would take her job," Qiao Lin said.
I didn't have the time or inclination to deal with her before, but now that I'm going to take action, I'll deal with her cleanly in one go.
Gu Weiwei smiled with satisfaction, "You two are quite savvy."
She knew what to do without her saying it.
"You have no idea how satisfying it was to be slapped in the face on the spot last night. It's such a shame you didn't go in person," Qiao Lin said with a smile.
After sitting on the plane for more than ten hours, Gu Weiwei said wearily, "People like that aren't worth my time."
Originally, she just wanted to embarrass Ling Yan, but Li Xin'er insisted on coming forward first.
