The anti-fraud bureau needs a promotional video, and you're going to make a "Desperate Gam

Chapter 18, "The Flowers of War"! (Please vote!)
Madness!

That's utterly arrogant.

He Mei originally thought that Song Hao would be modest.

For example, they might praise Director Zhang's film "The Lonely City" and then subtly boast about their own film.

Even so, He Mei felt that this fit Song Hao's character.

but now.

Song Hao stopped pretending altogether.

They even calmly stated that they not only wanted to take the top spot at the National Day box office, but also to become the box office champion for the second half of the year.

For someone like He Mei, who is in the entertainment industry, it's simply laughable.

Meanwhile, Zhao Peng and others are conducting roadshows to promote "The Lonely City".

Just as everyone was getting ready, a supporting actor was holding a phone and watching He Mei's live stream.

When he heard Song Hao say that he wanted to take the top spot at the box office during the National Day holiday, he burst out laughing.

Zhao Peng passed by.

Seeing him laughing so happily, I casually asked, "Ade, what are you looking at? You seem so happy."

Ade immediately handed his phone screen to Zhao Peng, and said with a smile, "Brother Peng, it's that director of 'All or Nothing'. He actually said that his movie will take the top spot at the box office during the National Day holiday, no, it will be the box office champion for the second half of the year."

Upon seeing this, Zhao Peng immediately frowned: "Just a clown!"

Ade then became curious: "Brother Peng, if you had participated in 'All or Nothing' back then, you might not have been able to work with Director Zhang on his film."

After taking a glass of water, Zhao Peng jokingly said, "Even if I were resting at home, I wouldn't bother filming that promotional video of his."

"Hahaha, you're right." Ade joked, "Who would watch this two-hour garbage propaganda video? Peng, your decision is correct."

Zhao Peng immediately said disdainfully, "Why are you still watching this kind of live stream? Turn it off right now. You're the only one in the entire crew watching it. It's so degrading."

"Okay, okay, I won't watch anymore, I'll turn it off now."

Ade was also worried that if others found out he was watching other directors' interviews, he wouldn't be able to explain himself no matter what.

"Could it be that no one in this production crew watches it except me?"

Little did they know, in the office...

Director Zhang was holding his phone, watching Hemei's live stream.

Just now.

In the directors' group, some people were discussing this matter.

He also tagged Director Zhang.

Director Zhang originally didn't want to pay attention to this kind of attention-seeking behavior, but in the past few days, he has also watched some of the online clips of "All or Nothing".

He was also somewhat curious about the director of this promotional video.

So I casually clicked on the live stream.

When he heard that Song Hao was going to take the top spot at the box office during the National Day holiday, he laughed heartily.

Then he turned off his phone screen.

"Turns out he's just an arrogant and conceited kid."

"Young people, it's always better to keep a low profile."

Director Zhang isn't sure if his film "The Lonely City" will break this year's box office record, but it's more than enough to secure the top spot during the National Day holiday.

As for "All or Nothing," he never took the film seriously.

In his eyes, only his own films are art.

Everything else is garbage.

"I'll let you be arrogant for another half month. By National Day, young man, you'll know what real strength is."

The live interview has ended.

Song Hao's remarks caused a surge in viewership in HeMei's live stream, even leading to buffering issues.

Left with no other choice, He Mei had to end the live stream.

Although she didn't believe that Song Hao's "All In" could take the top spot at the National Day box office.

But she still offered her blessings on the surface: "Then I wish Director Song all the best in achieving his goals and becoming a well-known new generation director in China as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your kind words," Song Hao said with a smile.

After He Mei left, Zhou Shibao immediately came over.

He looked at Song Hao in surprise and disbelief and said, "Brother Hao, how could you say something like 'we'll take the top spot at the National Day box office'?"

Song Hao countered, "Do you think 'All or Nothing' is of very poor quality?"

“No,” Zhou Shibao immediately explained, “I would say this is the best movie I’ve seen in recent years.”

"Then what else do you have to worry about?" Song Hao said with a smile.

Zhou Shibao stammered, "But, but this National Day holiday there's Director Zhang's 'The Lonely City.' Director Zhang is the most famous director in China. His movies will definitely lead the box office by a huge margin when they're released. Although I do think 'All or Nothing' is very good, it definitely won't beat 'The Lonely City' at the box office."

"You have to trust me, trust the lead actors of 'All or Nothing,' and trust your own judgment." After saying that, Song Hao left.

Zhou Shibao was left standing there, stunned.

Song Hao's outrageous remarks during the interview quickly went viral and became a trending topic.

Whether they were fans or haters, they all left comments below.

"To be honest, this is the most arrogant director I've seen in recent years."

"I've seen arrogant directors before, but this is the first time I've seen one who is so ignorant and conceited."

"I don't understand where he got the confidence to directly challenge Director Zhang's film."

"His promotional video is nothing short of delusional to think it can take the top spot during the National Day holiday."

"I checked, and the highest box office for a movie released as a promotional video is only over seven million, but our Director Song actually said he would get over 100 million on the opening day."

"He's dreaming."

Although some comments supported Song Hao, most were filled with doubt, sarcasm, and skepticism.

They all want to hurry up and wait until the National Day holiday so they can make a big splash.

Song Hao was already used to trending topics on the internet.

As long as the popularity of films like "All or Nothing" continues, his initial negative image is acceptable.

Everything will be reversed when it's released during the National Day holiday.

Those viewers who previously questioned him will all come and apologize to him!

He had been waiting for this day for a long time.

At the same time, Song Hao opened the system store.

Looking through the script library.

He still didn't have much of a clue about the Nanjing promotional video that Zhou Qian mentioned tonight.

After all, there aren't any films about Nanjing in the script library.

Without any hope, Song Hao typed "Jinling" into the search bar.

As long as no movies about Nanjing appear in this column.

So he could just find any movie with a similar humanistic theme and then use the name Jinling.

But the next second.

But a movie that shocked him appeared in the search bar.

The Flowers of War?!

When Song Hao saw the movie title, scenes from the plot immediately flashed through his mind.

This is an epic war film, and behind it lies a period of history that countless Chinese people will never forget and will remember for a lifetime.
