Chapter 631 Movie Queen Mother



[Who understands! I just love how Song Xia doesn't shy away from her preferences. It's only natural, right? She's lived half her life, has money, what's wrong with having a few younger boyfriends?]

I really don't understand what kind of people are criticizing Song Xia. It seems like I haven't heard a single ex-boyfriend say anything bad about her.

It's nothing more than jealousy, or perhaps they're just not good enough to catch Queen Song's eye.

[They didn't break the law, you trolls. If you're so capable, no one's stopping you from finding a few more. If you're not, shut up. It was consensual, what's it to you?]

[A ban? That's ridiculous. Everyone above has praised Song Xia's work and acting skills. Who do you think you are to ban her like that?]

Am I the only one who wants Song Xia to participate in more variety shows? Just listening to her talk is so pleasant; I don't have any other desire for her to do so.

[I really want to ask Sister Song, could you please not be so rigid about the gender of your partner?]

Now I finally understand what personal charisma is; Song Xia is it.

Regardless of how the new movie turns out, I've decided to support it at the box office. After all, I've watched so many of Song Xia's movies without ever spending a penny.

[Just because she changed the way idol dramas are produced, I will support her no matter what.]

...

The first episode alone sparked heated discussions online, with controversy surrounding Song Xia's comments on her private life, leading to polarized opinions.

Some people are disgusted by her open private life, feeling that as a public figure she has set a bad example and wish they could nail her to the pillar of shame. However, a larger number of netizens envy and support her free choice, believing that she has not broken the law and that all her relationships were consensual. They think that it's not a problem that she has dated a lot of boyfriends and that they were all younger than her.

Moreover, if you really count it, she only had three boyfriends before retiring from the entertainment industry, and only six in the twenty years after retiring, averaging one every three or four years. Is that a high frequency? Not to mention the entertainment industry, even for ordinary young people, it is difficult to maintain a relationship for three or four years.

As for her young age, that's not a problem at all. In society, it's mostly men who are older than women. When has it ever been forbidden for women to be older than men? Besides, with Song Xia's beauty, figure, emotional intelligence, and wealth, any young boyfriend who dates her is making a good deal, okay?

Perhaps to capitalize on this trend, two male model boyfriends who had previously dated Song Xia quickly came forward to share their stories, showing off the sports cars, jewelry, and other luxury items that Song Xia had bought for them, making netizens extremely envious!

I don't know who started it, but someone actually posted their own photo in the comments section of Song Xia's account, directly tagging Song Xia and asking if she still had any plans to have a boyfriend, saying they would definitely listen.

After the first person started posting photos, more and more people shared them in the comments section. Later, even girls appeared in the comments section, expressing their sincere hope that Song Xia wouldn't be too restrictive about gender.

Song Xinghe flipped through the pages out of boredom, feeling both helpless and amused, while also feeling proud of her mother's immense charm.

But to her dismay, she discovered that during her mother's visits to the film set these past few days, several male supporting actors had been intentionally or unintentionally walking around in front of her mother, subtly displaying their youthful bodies. She wondered why the hotel gym had been so full every day, and now she realized that they were up to something!

However, it seems that her mother has been single for almost two years since her last relationship. She didn't want her career to delay her mother's happiness, so that night, Song Xinghe subtly talked to Song Xia about this matter.

After Song Xia realized what she meant, she was both amused and exasperated: "It's not because of you, it's because Mom wants to rest. After all, Mom is getting old, and it's inevitable that she'll be a little tired of dealing with those young boyfriends. And Mom doesn't like older men, so it's better for her to be alone."

Song Xia then changed the subject: "But you're still young, so you can date a few more people. There's no rush to get married, and dating is fine. Don't worry about dating interfering with your acting career. Your mother isn't planning for you to be an idol artist; we'll focus on being a serious actor. As long as your work is good enough, it's okay to be more relaxed in your personal life."

Song Xinghe felt embarrassed by her words and could only nod perfunctorily: "If I meet someone suitable, I will talk to them."

Song Xia didn't want to interfere too much in Xinghe's private life, because everyone has their own lifestyle. Even if Xinghe never dated, never got married or had children, that was fine with her. She would only offer a suggestion, asking Xinghe to think it over and try not to regret it.

Looking at the online comments, Song Xia responded with several points: [I'm very happy to have everyone's support. Life is your own, and I hope everyone can make themselves happy within their means. Also, there's no need for people to go to the movies as compensation. I've received my salary for all my previous films, so there's no such thing as subsidizing box office revenue. I hope everyone can watch movies rationally and not hold innocent netizens hostage.]

The more she responded in this way, the more she won the hearts of netizens, and many people have already secretly decided that they absolutely must see this movie.

After filming wrapped on "She Came from the Light," Song Xinghe spent most of his time with Song Xia promoting "The Family," aside from shooting two magazine covers. The film is scheduled for release during the National Day holiday, a crucial period for competition among major film and television companies in China.

The film scheduling was handed over to Director Qu and the distributor. I heard that they met with the heads of several cinema chains. The highest-ranking chain only gave them 20% of the screenings, but this chain doesn't have a large number of cinemas nationwide.

The two cinema chains with the most theaters only allocated 10% of the screenings, which is very risky for the final box office.

However, one thing about cinemas is that the number of screenings is not fixed. If the audience response and attendance rate are good later, the cinemas will increase the number of screenings. Basically, there are such dark horses every year.

Actually, it's not that no one suggested they change the release date, but Director Qu has a lot of confidence in this film. If they withdraw it now, wouldn't that just make them a laughing stock?

Five films were released at the same time as "The Family," and they considered three of them to be the most competitive. The first was a mainstream film adapted from the original story, and such mainstream films always have high box office returns during the National Day holiday. The second was a science fiction film. In recent years, domestic science fiction films have exploded, with both production and word-of-mouth showing a dramatic turnaround. This was also the most expensive film released during the National Day holiday. The third was an original animation. This animation company has created many classics, and they would not have chosen to release it during the National Day holiday if they did not have great confidence in it.

In short, no matter how great the threat, they are confident that their film will be excellent and will definitely surprise the audience.
