"Xiao Zhou, you're right, we really did make a mountain out of a molehill this time!"
Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Xiong Tang nodded slightly and said with some pride:
“We are a big company, and under normal circumstances, it’s not worth arguing with these peasants. It would seem petty.”
However, this was actually an internal company-wide scare tactic, so it's normal for the methods to be ruthless.
We need to let everyone know that artists who are sidelined by the company, even if they leave, will still be suppressed by the company!
"Yes, yes, Mr. Xiong is absolutely right!"
After a slight pause, Zhou Yu quickly echoed:
"Mr. Xiong, I am absolutely loyal to the company and will never forget your promotion of me."
"You know this, Xiao Zhou. We're not stingy with resources to nurture artists who are loyal to the company!"
Xiong Tang laughed heartily:
"Take you for example. Once this 'Happy Summer Tour' becomes a box office hit, your status will rise sharply."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu, who had been somewhat apprehensive, regained his fervent gaze.
...
On the other side.
As the lights came back on in the dimly lit screening room, someone shouted "Bravo!" and started clapping.
Then all the audience members present joined in the applause.
Reba clapped enthusiastically and said to Xu Lu beside her:
"Xu Lu, I didn't expect your movie to be so good. It seems I was worried about you for nothing!"
"What are you worried about? Are you worried that the movie I directed will flop at the box office?"
Xu Lu asked with a smile.
"Of course! Who told you to give this movie such a weird name? It's so hard to pronounce!"
Fortunately, the movie is quite good, so I think the box office should be decent, at least it won't lose money!
Dilraba nodded and said.
Xu Lu rolled his eyes and said irritably:
"Hey, what do you mean by 'at least not losing money'? My goal is a box office of 1 billion, okay?"
So, just by moving your lips, you've slashed my box office by eight or nine hundred million!
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Reba looked Xu Lu over very carefully for a few moments before hesitatingly saying:
"Xu Lu, you were serious! I thought you were joking!"
"Nonsense, who's going to joke with you? Of course I'm serious!"
Xu Lu curled his finger and flicked the other person's forehead.
Caught off guard by the flick on the forehead, Dilraba immediately started baring her teeth and brandishing her claws in anger.
Because she had just finished watching a movie, Dilraba forgot to put on her sunglasses.
So, while the two were joking and playing around, Dilraba's appearance was seen by the employees of Daxu Culture Media sitting behind them.
And then... everyone was stunned!
"My goodness! The person accompanying our CEO Xu to the movies is actually the celebrity Dilraba, wow..."
"I was worried that no one would accompany Mr. Xu to the movies, but who knew that Mr. Xu had Dilraba to accompany him."
"I had heard before that President Xu and Dilraba had a good relationship, but I always thought it was just a rumor. Now I know it's true."
When Mr. Xu's movie was released, Dilraba even made a special trip back from Shanghai just to watch a movie with him!
"Luckily there were no paparazzi here, otherwise, we'd be trending on social media tomorrow!"
"Our General Manager Xu used to work under Boss Yang, but he was sidelined by the company and had to start his own business."
Dilraba is also an artist under Boss Yang's management, so it's perfectly normal for the two of them to have a good relationship..."
...
It's likely that other audience members overheard the conversation at Daxu Culture and noticed Reba there.
Someone in the crowd exclaimed:
"Dilraba? That really is Dilraba! Holy crap, I just watched a movie with a celebrity!"
"Dilraba, can you sign my autograph? Just sign it on this vest of mine."
"I want to take a picture with you, Dilraba, my goddess..."
Now that Dilraba knew her identity had been exposed, she put on her sunglasses, pushed Xu Lu out, and shouted:
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is 'Xia Luo' from the movie. He's the real star. If you want an autograph, ask him!"
This interruption finally allowed the onlookers to spot the handsome guy next to Dilraba.
Then, connecting this to the character 'Xia Luo' from the movie, everyone immediately recognized that it was indeed the same person.
Now, the focus of the fire has shifted to Xu Lu:
"Xia Luo, Xia Luo, give me your autograph! Oh my god, I just watched a movie with the lead actor!"
"What a surprise, Xia Luo! I'd like to take a picture with you, is that alright?"
"Xia Luo, are you the only one here? Where are Qiu Ya, Dong Mei, and the others?!"
"That's right, that's right, I want Goddess Qiuya, I want Goddess Qiuya's autographed photo..."
...
"Wow, is it really that crazy?"
To be honest, Xu Lu was genuinely startled by the audience, as this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Fortunately, there were many employees from Daxu Culture Media here, and they quickly stepped forward to 'escort' Mr. Xu away.
Xu Lu certainly wasn't in the mood to sign autographs for everyone, and he grabbed Reba and fled in a panic.
Of course, he didn't forget to criticize the guy who had put him in this awkward situation halfway through, saying:
"You little girl are so unfair, trying to shift the blame."
Fortunately, I had many capable assistants with me, otherwise none of us would be leaving today!
Dilraba wasn't scared at all; in fact, she found it quite amusing and said:
