But Lu Xiaoliang tolerated it. He pinched his nose and replied in a muffled voice.
If he did not pinch his nose, he was worried that he would have to use his fists to serve the other party. "Then I would like to thank you on behalf of Mr. Chen!"
Donard smiled insincerely. "Manager Fang, you're too kind. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave. I wish you a great premiere. There will be a lot of media reporters here today. Although your movie has a terrible image in the media right now, I will be happy to invite the media reporters over to take a look, take some photos, write some articles, and publish some news. This should be able to satisfy your company's Mr. Chen's requirements and give you a better influence! "
Donard left immediately after he finished speaking.
He could tell that Lu Xiaoliang was about to explode.
Although the one who would suffer would be that annoying Chen Guang if he were to be beaten up, but I'm an old man. There's no need for me to suffer with a young man. That would be bad for my health.
After Donard left, Lu Xiaoliang took a deep breath for 30 seconds to calm down.
He knew that the other party was here to disgust him, and he knew that he had fallen into the old man's trap.
But even though he knew that it was a trap, he could not help but jump in.
Lu Xiaoliang sighed. Compared to his boss, who would remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, he was worlds apart.
Forget it, the boss is right. I'll make a grand entrance no matter how much land you give me.
Don't you want to see us make a fool of ourselves?
We'll let you see as much as you want today!
When the boss's movie is released, all of you will be convinced by the beating. How arrogant you are today will be how embarrassing you will be when the time comes!
F * ck, my surname is not Fang!
"Xiao Qin, come here! Contact the printing company and convention company. Change the red carpet immediately! Change the stage! Change the posters! Change all of them! We'll occupy as much land as he gives us! "
"Manager Lu, is this really okay? We don't have any guests! "
Lu Xiaoliang took a deep breath and imitated Chen Guang's tone. "Xiao Qin, you're still young. You don't understand the boss's realm. Don't be happy with external things, don't be sad about yourself. No matter what happens outside, I will stand firm. If you always care about other people's gazes and gossips, then you can only become a mortal. Look at our President Chen. How did he achieve so much at such a young age? Little Qin, life is a science. You really have to learn slowly. You're still young. "
After saying that, Lu Xiaoliang walked away with his hands clasped behind his back like an expert.
Little Qin stood there and thought for a long time. Isn't CEO Chen only 21 years old?
Also, I calculated with my fingers. It's true that Chief Chen is capable, but according to Manager Lu's theory, that boss's greatest achievement is that he is thick-skinned and isn't afraid of being scolded, right?
Lu Xiaoliang's calmness and good mood did not last long. Not long after Donard left, William Jones, who had met Chen Guang once before, came over with a large group of friends.
These European and American celebrities had come to attend the movie premieres of "The Sunshine Man" and "July in Florence". Although they knew that the recently popular "Women" was also here, they had originally planned to stay far away from them to draw a clear line between them and the movie.
However, after listening to William Jones's suggestion, they immediately changed their minds and came here to see what was going on.
Behind this group of people, there was a large group of reporters with their cameras and cannons.
"Yo, this is the premiere of a Chinese blockbuster that has a screening rate of 0.67% in the United States. That's amazing. What a big stage!"
"Yo, it's the premiere of Hall 14! It looks like a blockbuster! "
"Hahahaha, this reminds me of Andersen's call."
"What?"
"The emperor's new costume!"
"I have a question. Did you guys hear who's going to attend their premiere?"
"I know someone from the New York Yankees will be coming."
"Who?!"
"A lawn mower for the New York Yankees, but I don't know his name."
"Hahahaha!"
"My friends from the media, hurry up and take pictures of this magical scene. The Chinese really care more about their reputation than we thought. I'm really worried that they won't be able to earn back the money they spent on the premiere. "
"That's impossible. I heard that they paid UBC one million dollars for the advertisement."
Lu Xiaoliang kept reminding himself, I'll endure! I'll endure! I'll continue to endure! I'll continue to endure!
I'm Ninja San Gou!
When these people finally leave, who knows how many pictures those reporters will take? I can easily guess what kind of news will appear on the Internet.
Forget it, it doesn't matter anymore. Anyway, the premiere will be over in another three or four hours.
Our premiere will probably last about ten minutes.
After a while, another group of celebrities arrived. This time, they were led by an Oscar -winning director!
Again …
I'm being trampled on again!
They even put pot ashes in my eyes!
Lu Xiaoliang couldn't stand it anymore. He decisively turned around and ran away. He told Little Qin that if anything happened, he could report to him at any time. He could just hide in the cafe next to the square and watch.
He couldn't control them, but he was also angry. So, he decisively decided not to see them.
President Chen, when are you coming? Come and save me!
Time passed by quickly. One hour … Two hours later, the venue of the world premiere of "Women" was quickly renovated by the super efficient operation of the US dollar.
The exhibition lighting layout was more gorgeous, and the poster array was more exquisite and large.
The spacious pure wool red carpet could even be ridden by horses!
Everything looked so gorgeous. Except for Comrade Xiao Lu's increasingly short guest list, it was really flawless.
That's right. Originally, there were a few friends in the circle that Big Beard Deng had put in a lot of effort to get. At least they had some weight, and people would have some impression of their names.
But in these few hours, these people might have been persuaded by others, or they might have been scared away by the negative news that had just been continuously updated on social networks and the media.
Until now, they had sent messages one after another, either saying that they had a stomachache or something happened at home. In short, one after another, they said that they couldn't come.
What was even more miserable was that in these two to three hours, other premieres had started one after another. They were really brilliant and strong. Even if it was a pure literary film with an investment of less than ten million US dollars, there were also big names in the industry who came to support them for free. Among them, there was even a bastard who had just stood Lu Xiaoliang up and said that he had his appendix removed in the hospital!
Without comparison, there would be no harm.
Almost every time after the red carpet part of the press conference, the reporters who were free for a short time would go to the booth of Women, which was beautifully decorated, but only had a few staff members to take pictures of the cold wind.
Lu Xiaoliang, who was hiding in the cafe, saw this scene. He knew that the titles of these beasts tonight would generally be like this.
"XX Movie Conference Stars Shine, China's Women Is Deserted."
"On the day of the XX Movie Premiere, XXX Superstar said that he had watched the test screening, and the reviews were overwhelming, the movie is scheduled to be nominated for an Oscar! Next door, Women said that I'm here for the Golden Plums! "
The foreigners might not have used such a lofty idiom as' deserted, 'and would generally change it to something else, but the meaning should be more or less the same.
'You animals, I can tolerate it if only one or two families do this, but if all of them do this, it's too much.'
He looked down at the calendar in his hand, and his face became even more ashen.
At eight o 'clock in the evening, the three movies, Women, The Sunshine Man, and July in Florence, would hold their premieres at the same time.
The movie, The Sunshine Man, told the story of a white man who was born in a black area, and the difficulties and struggles he felt since he was young, especially after he became an adult.
The movie cut into the story from a very tricky and novel angle, reflecting the color barrier in the current era, and finally expressed the concept of eliminating discrimination and pursuing coexistence. It was very much in line with the mainstream ideology of the United States led by comrade Guanhai in recent years.
July in Florence was not easy to deal with either. The story took place in Florence during the Renaissance, but it was not about familiar names like Michelangelo, Raphael, or Leonardo da Vinci.
July in Florence told the story of the European customs and cultural environment of this special period from the perspective of an aspiring but unknown artist at that time.
Under the director's meticulous craftsmanship, the film was beautifully produced. It started from a small point of view, and the story was intertwined. The final ending was huge, and it could be said to be the best Renaissance historical film in the 21st century.
Apart from Women, The Sunshine Man and July in Florence were the hot favorites for this year's Oscar. They did not even need any other publicity, and they had already been nominated for several awards.
In particular, William Jones and Bent Afflett, the two male leads in the movie, were almost the two most popular nominees for the Oscar this year.
Although the other nominees were also veterans in the industry with good reputations and acting skills, due to the limitations of the theme and structure of the movie itself, they were a lot less imposing than these two.
The other actors had even become the tag-along party.
However, this was not the problem that Lu Xiaoliang cared about the most at that moment. He only thought about what happened to his boss tonight, and his heart ached for him and himself.
'It's hard to say if we'll be the tag-along party at the Oscars, but we've already been the tag-along party at the premiere.
Our booth is bigger than everyone else's combined, but when the other side is bustling with noise, our booth is completely silent. How miserable is that? '
'Who says that international friends are gentle and refined? Who says that international friends are polite and of high quality?'
'These bastards' drive to hit people when they're down, and the foreign media's ability to tear people's scars and spit on people's faces, they're all very cunning. '
While Lu Xiaoliang was letting his imagination run wild, a person suddenly sat down next to him.
He turned his head and saw Chen Guang open his Apple computer and snap his fingers at the waiter. "Vetris, give me a caramel latte and three grams of oil."
"Boss, why are you here?"
Lu Xiaoliang forced himself to focus and asked.
