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

Chapter 32 Ni Ni in a Cheongsam!! (Please vote!!)
"You mean you're going to film a story about thirteen women in cheongsams?" After listening to Song Hao's bluff, Director Zheng was clearly confused.

Song Hao smiled and said, "That's right, Director Zheng. Our goal is to make everyone remember Jinling. So, as long as I finish filming this movie, everyone will want to come to Jinling to visit and experience its culture, is that enough?"

Director Zheng nodded: "That's true, but...don't you need to film Nanjing's famous scenic spots when you're making a cultural tourism promotional video?"

"No need," Song Hao replied.

At this point, Director Zhang from the Anti-Fraud Bureau explained, "Xiao Song has his own ideas, so you don't need to worry. After the filming is complete, you can just watch the promotional video once."

"Xiao Song's anti-fraud film even topped the box office during the National Day holiday. What's there to worry about if you hire him to film a promotional video for Nanjing?"

After hearing this, Director Zheng seemed to have made a decision. He looked at Song Hao and smiled, "Alright! Then I'll leave it to you. I only have one thing to say: I don't care what format you want to shoot or how many people you want to include. I just want the finished product, and I just want everyone to remember Nanjing!"

"Don't worry, Director Zheng, once the final cut is released, I guarantee everyone will know about Nanjing!"

With Song Hao's assurance, Director Zheng and Section Chief Chen left satisfied.

Director Zhang looked at Song Hao and said happily, "Little Song, do a good job. If you can make a good promotional video for Nanjing's cultural tourism, all the major cities will be looking for you."

Upon hearing this, Song Hao smiled awkwardly and replied, "I hope so."

He wondered if Director Zheng of Nanjing Culture and Tourism would be so frightened by the sight of "The Flowers of War" that he would sit on the ground.

But in fact, he had already thought everything through.

Leveraging the influence of "The Flowers of War," Song Hao will promote the Nanjing Museum and the Memorial Hall of the Victims, allowing more tourists to personally experience the historical events of that time.

Let more people understand the patriotism of that time.

But he wasn't sure if the film would pass censorship.

However, if they want to win an award at the annual film festival, the quality of "All for the Winner" alone may not be enough to guarantee success, so they also need to add "The Flowers of War".

do not care.

Shoot!
Anyway, the money invested isn't my own!

Playing is real!

Just as Song Hao was about to leave, Director Zhang called him back.

"Xiao Song, the box office of 'All or Nothing' is rising quite a bit."

Upon hearing this, Song Hao sensed an underlying meaning and replied, "Yes, Director Zhang, but the price only rose a bit faster in the last couple of days, and it has basically stopped rising since then."

"Hmm." Director Zhang nodded. "Team Leader He mentioned your box office revenue share to you before, right?"

Song Hao pretended to be stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized and said, "Yes, Team Leader He said that."

"Your share of the box office revenue will be deposited into your account over two months."

After saying that, Director Zhang chuckled and remarked, "With box office numbers so high these days, your net worth has increased considerably."

Song Hao immediately understood what Director Zhang meant and said, "This is all thanks to the opportunity given by the leaders. If possible, I will also contribute more than 10% of the box office profits to support anti-fraud publicity. Anti-fraud is a top priority that benefits the country and the people."

"At that time, Director Zhang will establish an anti-fraud fund for domestic anti-fraud publicity."

After listening, Director Zhang laughed and said, "Not bad, you young man, you have a very high level of awareness!"

He thought for a moment, then extended an invitation: "Well, my propaganda department is short of an anti-fraud publicity consultant. I think you're a good young man. Why don't you give it a try?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Song Hao immediately expressed his gratitude: "If it's possible, then of course there's no problem. I know that Director Zhang is wholeheartedly dedicated to doing practical things for anti-fraud publicity. If I can help you, it would be my pride."

"Alright, alright, no need for all that." Director Zhang chuckled and waved his hand, saying, "Then let's put it this way: although you're an advisor, your every move represents the image of the Anti-Fraud Bureau, so you absolutely mustn't do anything that damages that image."

"Don't worry, Director Zhang!"

Song Hao left the office.

Director Zhang was very impressed with the young man. He hadn't expected Song Hao to be willing to contribute his own profits to support the anti-fraud campaign.

Keep in mind that even a 10% share of the box office revenue is already several million.

"This kid has a pretty good political awareness."

This is Director Zhang's evaluation of Song Hao.

Song Hao left the anti-fraud center.

He also breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he had already noticed Director Zhang's probing.

So I just chimed in without thinking. Logically speaking, this promotional video was entirely funded by the anti-fraud center.

My salary was paid well in advance of filming.

Now that the film is in theaters, I am not entitled to receive a single penny of the box office revenue generated by the promotional videos.

But now, he not only receives a salary, but also a share of the box office revenue.

Although the money we've received from the box office is less than what we initially agreed upon.

But judging from the current box office performance of "All In," even if he only takes a small portion of the box office profit, he will still make several million!

What more could you ask for!

However, this incident also made Song Hao realize something.

If you want to leave behind excellent film and television works in this world, having official backing is a good choice.

After all, the entertainment industry is a mixed bag, and you could easily fall into someone's trap if you're not careful.

But things are different once you have official backing.

Thinking of this, Song Hao straightened his back.

Since that's the case, then he'll go all out and cause a ruckus.

Let the world see what truly excellent Chinese films and television dramas are!
With such ambition, Song Hao happily went home.

But as soon as he got home, he received a call from Zhou Shibao.

"Hey, Hao-ge, you've been reported."

"???" Song Hao asked, looking puzzled. "What's wrong?"

“Someone just called the anti-fraud center and said that your film ‘All or Nothing’ looks too much like a fraud gang. They suspect that you are making your own autobiography and asked us to investigate you.”

Song Hao:
Zhou Shibao said cheerfully, "Don't worry, it's nothing. Maybe it's just that this person is more sensitive. No one else will hit him."

Just then, a colleague next door mentioned, "Another call came in, saying they want to check up on Song Hao."

Zhou Shibao said awkwardly, "Oh, this."

"You told Team Leader He that the details in the script were all researched online and in books. I've never been abroad!" Song Hao explained helplessly.

He only hung up the phone after receiving Zhou Shibao's assurance.

But as soon as I put the phone down, it rang again.

Song Hao assumed it was Zhou Shibao again, so he answered the phone and sighed, "Shibao, has someone reported me again?!"

"Hello, Director Song, it's me, Ni Ni." A sweet voice came from the other end of the phone.

Song Hao immediately apologized, "Ni Ni, I'm sorry, I thought it was my friend calling."

"Haha, it's nothing. What did you just say about reporting?"

"It's nothing, it's just that some viewers who watched 'All or Nothing' felt that my film looked too much like a fraud gang, and they even called the police."

Ni Ni laughed on the other end of the phone: "That's because Director Song filmed it so well. By the way, Director Song, I've already bought eight cheongsams. You said you'd train me on how to walk. When is that?"

Upon hearing this, Song Hao happily replied, "Whenever you have time, we'll practice."

"Director Song, open the door, I'm right outside your door!"

Song Hao was somewhat surprised and quickly went to open the door.

Ni Ni, wearing sunglasses and a coat, stood smiling by the door and said, "Director Song, you didn't expect this, did you?"

After saying that, she went into the house and took off her coat.

The light blue cheongsam she wore complemented her gentle and graceful demeanor, and her lips were slightly parted.

The distance between the forks is neither too high nor too low, seemingly both hidden and revealed, both wanting to be revealed yet concealed.

Let the flowers blush, and let the moon hide in the clouds.

Suddenly, Song Hao understood the joy that those big-name directors experienced when casting.
