“What’s the matter?” Although Old Mrs. Han had overheard a couple of words in Lu Man’s conversation, she couldn’t really understand it.
Hence, Lu Man roughly explained the situation to them. Old Mr. Han said, “Just make the call here. It’s alright. Call them while you eat, don’t delay such an important matter. You don’t have to worry that it will disturb us.”
Therefore, Lu Man didn’t leave the dining table. Right in front of everyone, she called Eight Skin Entertainnt.
Amongst the few dia gossip accounts, since she had first worked with Eight Skin Entertainnt, she was well acquainted with them and cooperating with them was even better.
Moreover, the owner of this account was pretty reasonable and was a smart person. He would get things done instantly and it was a pleasure working with him.
Hence, he was the first person that Lu Man thought of. When the call was answered, Lu Man could clearly hear the other party chewing sothing.
“Sorry for disturbing you during your al,” Lu Man apologized instantly.
“Don’t worry.” Eight Skin Entertainnt owner said. He quickly drank a gulp of water and swallowed everything down before speaking, “People in our line of work don’t really have a fixed al ti, anyway. When so work pops up, we have to keep everything aside. Isn’t it the sa for you too? What’s up? Is there so work for us?
“It’s just a small matter for which I need to trouble you.” Lu Man quickly explained to him about how the other three cinema operators had scheduled the screenings of Zhang Lun’s movie. “Since right now the total number of screenings of Fighting Hero is comparable to that of Red Tiger’s, there’s no reason to let the netizens think that if Red Tiger does well at the box office, it’s because they have an advantage over Fighting Hero in terms of the number of screenings. Right now, the two movies are at the sa starting point. So, they would be compared only on the basis of ticket sales. Moreover, no matter which party loses, they can’t bla it on the scheduling of the screenings either.”
Otherwise, although the screenings of Fighting Hero would stealthily increase, the netizens would still be kept in the dark about it. So, even if Red Tiger really did better than Fighting Hero at the box office, others would also think that Red Tiger won unfairly, and they would be unjustly wronged.
“I understand.” Eight Skin Entertainnt finalized the plan with Lu Man and hung up the phone. The very next mont, he started typing a Weibo post.
After not long, Lu Man saw that Eight Skin Entertainnt released a Weibo post.
“The screenings of Fighting Hero have surprisingly been increasing quite furtively. As expected, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. This ti around, Director Zhang must be over the moon.” With this caption, he posted a screenshot showing the percentage of screenings of Fighting Hero .
Unexpectedly, at that mont, Lu Man’s fans reacted surprisingly quickly too. They even perfectly inherited Lu Man’s style of dissing people.
“Oh ho ho, Director Zhang must be unhappy. Only his movie can have the most number of screenings. If any other movie has the sa number of screenings as his, it’s unfair!”
“Now if they lose out at the box office, they can’t bla it on the number of screenings.”
At the sa ti, there were also so spectators who remained perfectly neutral, just curious and eager to watch the drama unfold.
“This ti Director Zhang is really putting himself up on a pedestal. Moreover, at the ti of deciding the release date for Fighting Hero, he didn’t even care about the other movies that were scheduled to be released around the sa ti as his. After all, isn’t he a famous director? Those other movies released at the sa ti indeed can’t really compete with his movie. However, a famous director causing such a huge ruckus just for having pri screening slots really looks a little ugly. Originally, if the box office couldn’t turn out as well as expected, he could at least bla it on the unfair treatnt and the fewer screenings of Fighting Hero . However, now both the movies are starting out at the sa point as none of them are losing out in terms of the number of screenings. So, if the box office still turns out badly, coupled with what happened in the past, it sure will be really embarrassing for him.”
“Why is it always so exciting with Lu Man around?”
“Thanks for the above comnt for reminding . Lu Man really is pretty annoying like this.”
With that comnt, so of Lu Man’s fans were rather unhappy. “Why are you dragging Lu Man into this for nothing at all?”
“Haha, if there really wasn’t anything wrong with Lu Man, what are people always targeting her every single ti? Then that must be because she is too problematic. Otherwise, why would she be the only target out of so many people in the world?”
“I agree with this!”
For the very first ti, Lu Man’s fans were a little tongue-tied.
