Chapter 171: Forming a R&D Team, Impacting Internet Speed!
All the senior directors of Xinghe Entertainment admired Xu Can.
That's why they could be so harmonious.
All the groups under Xu Can's command were under his leadership, with no internal strife!
The current publicity cannot achieve the effect Xu Canwants; he must seize the time to form a team to continue developing 4G.
He can start the short video era in advance and also monopolize this industry in his own hands.
Xu Can plans to select talent from various universities, especially those in data research and development and broadband.
By chance, Taylor Swift happened to come to the company to visit Xu Can.
Seeing that he seemed to have a new plan, she looked at the screen with some curiosity.
Only after seeing the printed documents on the table did she realize that Xu Can was also actively making breakthroughs in terms of data traffic.
"Why are you tirelessly researching and developing data traffic? These professional matters are best left to professionals."
Taylor Swift was actually a little worried that Xu Can had been overworking himself recently.
"This is also very helpful for our future work. Current promotion is limited to online promotion, and this network's promotional effect, which is limited to text and images, is not that significant, and its spread is not that high!"
"The emergence of short videos allows everyone to see our movie at the fastest speed. Only after being attracted by some clips will they want to learn about the movie, and that is my ultimate goal!"
Xu Can's grand ambitions, she temporarily would not pay much attention to; only when this technology truly emerges will it change everyone's perception of data traffic and their understanding of the world's accelerating information flow.
"I'm going to visit various research laboratories at universities to see the people we'll be collaborating with in the future. If you have time, you can come with me!"
Taylor Swift walked forward with great joy.
"Of course, no problem. After all, I have some understanding and contact with them, and I believe I can also help you. As for these information technology challenges, they are not too simple to overcome. Are you really ready?"
What needs to be spent is not just money, but also time; all the time spent on this does not necessarily bring them any results.
In other words, this is truly a very unknown test.
Xu Can nodded heavily.
"I made this decision after careful consideration, not because of a sudden whim. You know that so many people are watching me now. My every move, including every film, is under their surveillance. They can't wait to find any handle on me to pull me down from this position or seize all my achievements!"
"But my goal is not just to reach a higher position in the film industry; I will impact various other fields, letting them know that my status is unshakeable!"
Xu Can raised his head.
The woman next to him looked at him with an expression of admiration.
It was indeed enviable that such a man was her boyfriend.
"I have already gotten to know some of the professors in these universities, and they are willing to let their students cooperate with me. After all, this can also provide them with more research funds. I can invest in them and let them develop their own achievements, but I must have a share in the results!"
However, it is still necessary to realistically understand whether the laboratory lacks those equipment, otherwise, once the research funds are swallowed into their pockets, it will seriously affect Xu Can's progress!
Xu Can did not care about the reported amount; he was only worried that they would waste all this money and delay the entire research process. He dared not guarantee that he would always trust anyone who wanted to cooperate with him!
University of Surrey.
Douglas Hood was anxiously waiting at the entrance, and at the same time, he had his students waiting by his side, fearing that it would affect their first impression in front of Xu Can!
He tidied his clothes.
"Be more energetic for me. This is the big boss who will provide us with research funds in a while. I believe you have all heard his name. We cannot let him think that we are incapable people who only know how to seek research funds. We must also show him our current achievements!"
A student next to him raised his question with some doubt.
"But the mobile network transmission technology he requires is truly difficult to break through. This is a very dreamy speed. We need to be 60,000 times faster than the previous network speed, which is already close to the transmission speed of fiber optic networks. I'm worried that we might not be able to develop it!"
Before the professor could continue to scold him, Xu Canheard this sentence. As he walked up the steps, his figure hadn't appeared yet, but his voice had already emerged.
"If you don't have confidence in yourself, I can withdraw this investment and give it to more capable people. I believe there will still be researchers who agree with my plan and have the same goal as me!"
Douglas Hood glared at the student next to him. At a time like this, such discouraging words should not be spoken!
Otherwise, not only would their research funds be gone, but this was also his dream. Although this was an ideal state, with the continuous development of technology, nothing could be completely impossible to achieve!
"The students are ignorant, please forgive them. They don't understand this industry thoroughly enough, so it's normal to have some concerns."
Xu Can smiled slightly and shook hands with the professor.
The students next to him looked at Taylor Swift in surprise.
"It's really Taylor Swift! My mind is full of him singing on stage right now!"
"I actually saw him alive! He's still so beautiful in real life, there's no difference at all!"
"Indeed, celebrities' demeanor is much better than I imagined. They have to maintain their best state at all times to look more perfect on TV!"
"If we cooperate with Xu Can, can we often see Taylor Swift? She's my dream girl!"
"You guys are a bit too perverted, don't you know that even if you speak so softly, they can still hear you?!"
The few of them awkwardly coughed.
Xu Can completely ignored their praise; he certainly wouldn't stop anyone from praising his girlfriend.
Then he followed them to the research base.
It was indeed much more complete than he had imagined, but some important equipment was not fully configured, which was still a bit backward!
Indeed, the research funds the school could provide them had already reached the highest standard.
Their goals also couldn't be achieved.
Chapter 172: "captain america 2" Script Invincible, No Revisions Needed!
Xu Can sat down and seriously discussed the next steps of cooperation with them. He had many insights into 4G technology!
"Just now, I heard you say that this mobile communication technology is too dreamy and may not be completed, but as long as this technology is completed, its data transfer rate can reach 20 times that of previous technologies and it also has strong anti-interference capabilities. I need you to use Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) technology to provide multiple value-added services to prevent signal interference with data transmission!"
"Especially the coverage of previous technologies was too small; it couldn't maintain the current speed even when data was far away, so during the transmission process, 4G must consider its coverage capability!"
After Xu Can explained these tasks to them, a large number of people indeed did not understand.
They were clearly the most professional people, yet they always couldn't quickly grasp what Xu Can was trying to say!
They could indeed carry out such research and development, but it would definitely not be completed in the shortest time.
"Can you give us six months to explore this area? Some people are indeed doing this exploration, but there have never been any achievements!"
Before the professor could speak, the students beside him were already worried.
Douglas Hood's eyes were filled with tears as he reached out and took Xu Can's hand.
"Successfully increasing the speed of 3J has always been my dream. I don't think it's an impossible task. On the contrary, as long as we accelerate the research and development process and obtain the necessary equipment, we can take them outdoors for further verification through continuous experiments to see if we can achieve an increase in existing speeds. As long as there's an improvement, it means it will definitely succeed!"
Xu Can wanted exactly this kind of confidence from him.
"Very good. I will send your equipment to the research lab within a week. If you have any questions, you can communicate with me in time. Later, I will have my assistant set up a way for you to contact each other."
"If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving now."
Taylor Swift didn't say a word the whole time, but she could feel that the students would occasionally look at her. To avoid affecting Xu Can's plan, she could only listen silently.
After returning to the car, Taylor Swift began to voice her questions.
"Should we replace the people in those teams? This teacher is indeed very capable, but I heard that these students just enrolled and don't have much experience. Will they affect you?"
Xu Can frowned. As expected of someone who would openly admit to being his girlfriend, she immediately understood what was on Xu Can's mind.
"I know you don't like me talking too much here. I'll pay attention in the future."
Xu Can nodded slightly.
As soon as they arrived downstairs at the company, he no longer allowed Taylor Swift to go up.
"We're discussing the new script today. You should go back first. I can't look after you here."
Watching Xu Can's car drive away, Taylor Swift felt a bit annoyed.
She seemed to have interfered too much today; she shouldn't meddle in any of Xu Can's decisions.
No wonder there were always so many women around him, because she couldn't make him completely satisfied.
Taylor Swift turned around, a little dejected, but she would still hold firm to her heart and always stand by Xu Can.
As soon as they arrived at the office, everyone was holding the Captain America 2 script.
Their faces were all full of satisfied smiles.
Ever since Xu Can, they had never worried about scripts. Countless good scripts just emerged one after another.
"This is truly a good script! Every detail is written so clearly that it doesn't even need a screenwriter to change it!"
"The character designs here also exceeded my imagination. The boss has brought us so many surprises!"
"This time, we must market and promote it well, otherwise it will definitely be Ran. Let's see which aspects we should focus on for promotion. What do you in the publicity department think?"
As soon as Xu Can arrived, he heard them discussing. The moment he sat down, everyone looked at Xu Can with great respect.
"Everyone, please relax, don't be too stiff. We're just having a normal discussion. All subsequent promotions must be thoroughly discussed so we can save a lot of time!"
The publicity department also nodded.
"I think the CP between Xu Can and Scarlett Johanssonmust be promoted well this time. Otherwise, Boss, you should meet Scarlett Johansson more often privately recently to create a promotional hot spot and increase public attention for this movie!"
"That's right, I think so too. The better your real-life relationship, the more it helps everyone immerse themselves in the characters you two play. Even after the movie, public attention on you two will remain high, which is very helpful for both this movie and subsequent roadshows!"
"Then we also need to invite some reporters to take pictures, but won't this make the boss's girlfriend unhappy, given that it involves rumors with other women?"
"This is normal work, what's the big deal? Isn't work important?"
Xu Can tapped the table.
Their arguing was getting a bit loud.
"You're right, the CP sense between the two of them in the script must be well-established. So, in real life, I must interact more with Scarlett. You don't need to worry about this; I will contact her privately."
The 140 script had absolutely no problems.
The rest was about promotion.
Only when intimate photos of the two of them appeared online could the company's publicity department begin its promotion.
He needed to speed up this step.
Scarlett was taking a bath when she received the call.
The phone rang, and she really couldn't quite reach it.
But through the misty steam, she saw Xu Can's name.
Without thinking much, she rushed over immediately.
Even though she was stark naked.
"Hello."
She spoke with some nervousness and shyness.
Xu Can heard her trembling voice and was very puzzled.
"Are you unwell? Why does your voice sound a bit shaky?"
"No, I was just bathing…"
Uh…
The woman became embarrassed and then began to inquire.
"Is there any work-related need? I can come over anytime now!"
Xu Can said calmly, "It is indeed work-related. We need to interact privately and show an intimate relationship, which will be very helpful for the promotion of our upcoming movie. So, I'm calling to let you know, can we have dinner privately tomorrow?"
"Okay! No problem!"
Chapter 173: God-tier physique, muscle-bound filming set!
She responded without hesitation.
"Then I'll pick you up at your doorstep tomorrow. There might be reporters then."
"I have the most experience with this. We'll also pretend we're leaving to avoid reporters. I'll wear a hat, and then they can take the photos they want most!"
"But will your girlfriend be unhappy? Do you need to tell her in advance?"
When she said the word "girlfriend," her voice paused slightly.
Xu Can believed that Taylor Swift would definitely understand him and that no extra explanation was needed; such was their tacit understanding.
"She'll know what I'm going to do."
Scarlett greatly envied the tacit understanding between them. She also wondered if she could do this job well by Xu Can's side.
Soon, it was the next day. Xu Can drove a low-key car downstairs.
As expected, the reporters sniffed them out and came over.
"I knew these two had something going on. Xu Can has so many women around him, it's not impossible that he attracted Scarlett!"
"Maybe they're just discussing the script?"
"Why are you discussing the script so secretly…"
"Let's photograph them first; they'll get what's coming to them later!"
Hiding in the bushes to take photos, Xu Can had long sensed them. He subtly glanced at them; these people weren't hiding very secretly at all, truly treating people as fools!
Scarlett, seeing the man appear downstairs from her window, felt a little excited inside. Although their date was under the guise of work, she was still very happy!
She pulled down her hat and quickly went downstairs.
To others, it might have looked like she was rushing to avoid the cameras, but a closer look would reveal that she deliberately lingered at the car door for a few extra seconds, precisely to give them time to capture footage and clearly photograph her features!
"They must have gotten the shot. I believe they'll give us a good headline!"
Sure enough, it didn't take long for these reporters to work quickly.
The top trending searches were all about the two of them.
[Sweet Morning Couple: Why is Xu Can Being Secretive?]
[Love in Every Movie: Why is Xu Can So Charming?]
[Sweet Scene at the Cafe: I'll Wipe the Cake from Your Lips.]
All sorts of high-definition photos and videos were exposed.
[Did the two fall in love because of Captain America2?]
[Captain America 2 must have romance!]
[The private relationship between the two Heroes is actually so good!]
All the movie promotions were put forward by the company based on the buzz the reporters gave them.
They used this opportunity to promote the movie, achieving their goal.
With the movie's popularity so high, their filming also needed to be put on the agenda.
Only poster promotions were released online.
The moment the promotional video was released, it further increased the concentration of popularity.
Their overtime was not in vain.
Everyone was obsessed with Captain America's chest muscles.
How does Xu Can maintain his physique? Just these pectoral muscles alone would take me 100 years to develop!"
"I originally thought it was quite simple, until I went to the gym, then I realized this is truly not something a human can achieve!"
"This physique far surpasses my mental state; can he open a class?!"
"No wonder anyone can fall for a man like Xu Can; who wouldn't like him? He's not only ambitious, but also a man with such a great physique!"
"At this moment, I really want to be Scarlett Johansson, just lying in his arms!"
On set!
Everyone on set became a group of fangirls.
Scarlett Johansson, even more shyly, watched Xu Can's shirtless upper body from the side.
On others, this might seem vulgar, but on Xu Can, it was the exposure of a good physique and the embodiment of a resolute state.
"I originally thought I'd need to draw more abs on him, but now my paintbrushes are truly useless!"
The props team was so amazed they were practically drooling.
"I've been in this industry for so many years and have never seen an actor maintain his physique in such good condition. This is what a true actor is, shaping himself for the role!"
Today's filming set was a muscle-packed filming set.
Scarlett Johansson also reveled in such joy.
Today's filming went exceptionally smoothly; everyone was very focused, all driven by Xu Can.
Xu Can directed the set and also completed his own filming.
People who had worked with Xu Can gathered together.
"Before, I only thought this industry was too tiring, and I never imagined that one day the efficiency would be so high. When I compared working with other Directors, I realized this had a lot to do with Xu Can!"
"Such a dedicated man, the on-set control and lighting direction he brings to us are so professional. Moreover, Xu Can remembers every character's lines clearly, and at critical moments, he can even help us with character development. I never thought he was just a Director!"
Xu Can thoughtfully prepared food and drink carts for them.
Such a good Director, unexpectedly, would also be harmed by public opinion.
The reporters suspected they were being manipulated, that someone was using them.
"We cannot let this matter just slide. Public opinion can help a person, and it can also harm a person!"
Others also firmed their expressions.
"What they fear most is damage to their reputation. We'll say he's a prima donna, abusive to his employees, and extremely strict. I don't believe there's a big Director who's good to everyone. We can always find one or two to complain about their boss!"
"There's no need to search; just say, 'According to informed sources,' and slightly alter the voice. No one will actually look for who this person is; they'll only focus on what kind of person Xu Can is!"
When such a distorted audio clip appeared online, indeed, some people believed it.
The internet is a double-edged sword; some are easily influenced, while others hold firm to their beliefs.
Three men make a tiger, not to mention so many netizens. When they all believe something, it's easy for it to be misconstrued as fact.
"Xu Can is actually such a vicious person; I heard he twisted an employee's ear off on set!"
"What I heard was that Xu Can exploited his employees to shorten the construction period, making them work day and night. Some people's health problems arose during work, and they're still in the hospital, and Xu Can won't even provide them with medical expenses!"
"Oh my god, I originally thought he was a good person!"
Chapter 174: Three Men Make a Tiger, the Pressure of Public Opinion Strikes!
Xu Can furrowed his brows.
These reporters are truly vengeful.
"Call the Public Relations Department to my office for a meeting immediately!"
They needed to eliminate the influence of this public opinion in the shortest possible time.
Especially this fake audio, they could find out where it was synthesized.
As soon as the Public Relations Department personnel arrived at the office, everyone seemed unconcerned. In their eyes, their boss was never like what the internet described; the more outrageous such things were, the easier it was for them to clarify.
But Xu Can appeared exceptionally serious.
"No one should underestimate this incident. They don't just want me to bear the pressure of public opinion; what they want more is for me to surrender!"
"You all understand the situation online; they love to twist black into white and white into black. Even if I am a very upright person, they will still find ways to make me bow my head in this storm of public opinion!"
They could not simply relax their guard because of a single public opinion dynamic.
It could instantly become a sharp sword, piercing deep into one's heart, severely hindering their progress in developing their career.
Especially now that the movie they were producing had an excellent script, everything was ready, and it couldn't be affected by this.
The censorship above was becoming increasingly strict; anyone with poor character could not be re-broadcast.
So he had to clarify quickly to avoid affecting his movie.
"To prove that this public opinion is not true, we must start with this audio. It's obvious that they synthesized it, but we also need to let others know who is behind this manipulation? What is their relationship with him, and why are they slandering our boss?!"
"But this cannot be done overnight; it will take at least a week to prepare all the clarifying materials!"
Xu Can frowned, this time clearly displeased him!
"If we continue to delay, they might succeed. This is not something we can afford. Everyone must not waste time giving them opportunities!"
The staff of Xinghe Entertainment were not without ability; they just needed something to motivate them.
Before they could even formally begin, a group of people came forward, all wanting to vouch for Xu Can.
"When we were on set, the Director always looked out for everyone's safety, even us extras had received his care. We cannot stand by and watch him be slandered by others!"
"I also came here for this reason. None of us have ever seen such a good Director. I really don't know why some people still slander Xu Can!"
"They might simply be jealous, so we must bravely stand up and let them know that our Director is the best person in the world!"
Xu Can smiled faintly.
He turned to look at his staff.
"It seems no more evidence is needed; we can clarify now!"
"Retrieve the surveillance footage from the set and all kinds of behind-the-scenes videos. Anything that can help us clarify the facts can be used as evidence. At the same time, we must quickly have a research institution submit the fake evidence of the audio synthesis!"
After everything was ready, the internet underwent another dramatic change.
A large number of people discovered that Xu Can had been wronged.
Xu Can hadn't expected these reporters to retaliate, so this plan was improvised.
Scarlett Johansson had always wanted to help, to clarify the rumors between them, which might also have a big impact this time, but Xu Can stopped her in time.
"If you speak now, it will only add fuel to the fire. What we should all resist together are the comments aimed at me, which have little to do with you. Please don't get yourself involved!"
Scarlett Johansson was very touched!
Her eyes never left Xu Can.
Xu Can, when working diligently, was always charming.
And he wouldn't let a woman stand up to help him bear responsibility; he still chose to clarify these realities silently by himself, which showed he was a very responsible man!
"You go back first and prepare for the next filming schedule. Make sure your physical training is effective, otherwise others will definitely seize this opportunity to accuse you of slacking off on this job!"
Scarlett Johansson nodded heavily.
Subsequently, the entire online public opinion began to change.
Two reporters stared blankly at their computers.
This war had begun, and they could not surrender now.
They needed to quickly buy all the internet trolls to slightly turn the tide of the situation and prevent all the firepower from being directed at themselves!
"How's the situation on your end? It seems the prices of these internet trolls have gone up. They know the more urgent we are, the more we'll look for them!"
The price increase had made it somewhat unaffordable for them.
To fight Xu Can, they could only burn money, after all, Xu Can gained a lot of traffic from them too.
"Now his public reputation has completely changed, as if he's truly used us as a springboard!"
The reporter was utterly dejected; he leaned back, not wanting to say anything.
This war seemed to have ended before it even began.
Xu Can's side had temporarily concluded, but he also pondered in his office.
According to the previous plan, their movie's review had ended, and now all promotions officially began, including subsequent roadshows.
But who would have thought such a big flaw would temporarily emerge, giving these reporters an opportunity?
This forced them to temporarily halt their roadshow plans, and such a delay was not only unfair to the fans but also had a significant impact on themselves.
They had to find these two reporters. Although they were anonymous, Xu Can could bring them to light with a little investigation.
"Go investigate behind the scenes and see which company these reporters belong to. Since this reporter is so ignorant, he shouldn't continue working here in the future, to avoid embarrassing their company!"
"Yes!"
When summoned by his boss, Zhang reporter was still in a daze.
He thought he was going to be reassigned to another job, but he no longer wanted to stare at Xu Can. Xu Can was a terrifying figure, and he could not get any benefit from him!
Although his eyes kept dodging, he still met his boss's gaze!
Chapter 175: Movie Affected, Xu Can Secretly Kept in Mind!
"You should be very clear about how many big shots Xu Can is cooperating with now. If we offend him, we're completely finished. But now the other party has given us a choice: as long as the two of you resign, our company can be safe. Do you want to choose to do this?"
Zhang reporter was stunned. This was not the result he wanted.
Without this job, he would lose his most stable income. Not being able to earn money during such a turbulent period was too fatal for him!
Zhang reporter quickly knelt down without any self-respect.
"Boss, I beg you, I really can't be without this job. I didn't do it on purpose. I will seriously apologize to Xu Can and try to get his forgiveness so that our company will not fall into a more difficult situation!"
"There's nothing left to discuss. If you don't leave, we will!"
In the end, the two reporters were still driven away. They had no idea what they had done wrong!
They just took revenge. Who told Xu Can to use their news?
After resolving this major issue, Xu Can temporarily ignored it and instead focused more energy on adjusting his plan.
The on-site filming gradually came to an end.
Scarlett Johansson was very reluctant to leave the set. Here were her memories with Xu Can, and the scenes where they were a little closer, all floating in her mind.
If it weren't for this filming opportunity, they might not have been able to be so close again.
"Will you come to the wrap-up party tonight…?"
Scarlett Johansson asked cautiously.
Xu Can was adjusting the final shot. When he suddenly heard her, he didn't turn back. He focused on the screen while casually replying, "Probably."
Scarlett Johansson felt a little surprised.
After tonight, she might only meet Xu Can during promotions.
But that wasn't a private meeting, so she preferred their current relationship.
Therefore, she had to seize this opportunity to tell Xu Canabout her feelings again.
After finishing the last shot, Xu Can basically gave flowers to everyone on set.
He knew some people thought they weren't worthy, that they were just small extras, so how could they be lucky enough to receive this honor!
But Xu Can made everyone equal.
No one was more humble than anyone else.
Xu Can's words indeed deeply moved everyone. They wanted to continue cooperating with Xu Can, but they didn't know how long they would have to wait for this opportunity.
"Everyone can come to my villa tonight to enjoy this wrap-up party together. It won't disturb anyone because my villa is a detached villa!"
Xu Can raised his hands high, a smile lingering on his lips.
Cheers erupted on site!
And when night fell, Taylor Swift was already waiting in the villa.
She missed Xu Can very much, so she wanted to give him a surprise in advance.
When she heard the movement outside, she was a little nervous.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and this surprise was actually a reward for herself.
It was to make Xu Can feel the joy and affection of a long-awaited reunion.
But then Taylor Swift felt something was wrong. The footsteps at the door seemed to be more than one, but also more than two!
As the sound got closer, she instantly understood. Maybe he brought the whole crew. If she appeared in the villa dressed like this now, it would definitely make everyone imagine things!
But she really didn't want everyone to know about such private matters.
"How did so many people suddenly come? It's all my fault. If I had asked in advance, such a problem wouldn't have occurred!"
"What should I do? I don't know where to hide for a while!"
Taylor Swift could only go to the second floor.
Now there were so many people waiting here.
She couldn't let them find her.
"Everyone please sit casually. Director might come later. He needs to handle some documents at the company!"
Scarlett Johansson naturally treated herself as the hostess here.
After all, she was probably the most persuasive person in this movie. When Xu Can wasn't around, she had to hold the fort, otherwise, the scene would definitely be very disorderly.
So Scarlett Johansson didn't think too much, and she didn't know that Taylor Swift was here.
Taylor Swift saw this scene while walking upstairs. She felt quite uncomfortable.
She wondered what kind of relationship Xu Can had with her that Scarlett Johansson could naturally assume Taylor Swift's position.
But these staff and actors also moved around, and soon someone came to the second floor.
Taylor Swift could only go into their bedroom, but she didn't expect someone to still be shaking the door.
Although some people were very discreet and might not actually come in, she was still very worried.
When Xu Can received Taylor Swift's call, he had just put on his clothes and was about to leave.
"Come and save me, I really can't do anything!"
"Why are you on the second floor? I forgot to tell you, today is the wrap-up party, and I invited them to the villa…"
Xu Can quickly put on his clothes.
If he couldn't make it, he might see this awkward scene. He mainly wanted to prevent Taylor Swift from being surrounded and discussed by so many people.
Everyone had their own opinions, and Xu Can couldn't shut everyone's mouths.
More and more people gathered downstairs.
When Xu Can arrived, he had run all the way from the parking lot.
As soon as he entered, he found everyone looking at him.
"You all continue, I need to go to the bedroom and change these sweaty clothes…"
Indeed, no one suspected him.
Especially since Xu Can had hired professionals to set up the scene, many people were immersed in the joy of the party and didn't pay much attention.
But Scarlett Johansson didn't think so. She noticed Xu Can's strangeness.
She wanted to go and ask, but Xu Can rushed upstairs as if he hadn't seen her.
Scarlett Johansson followed all the way, saw Xu Canenter the bedroom, and was about to go up when she heard a woman's voice inside.
"You're finally here, I was so nervous here!"
"Oh, you're annoying, there are people outside!"
"Not here, so many people are waiting outside. After they leave…"
"Superbad!"
Scarlett Johansson at the door looked a little lonely.
Yes, Xu Can had a girlfriend, so what was her status here?
But she had already known…
Chapter 176: Successfully Won Award, Outstanding Film Included!
"Later, I'll call them out and change the party venue, then you can go out!"
"No need. Since I'm here temporarily disturbing your party, I should be the one to leave first. I just need to find a legitimate reason to walk out of here!"
"I'll dress you up in a bit. There will be a lot of people when you go downstairs, so no one will notice you."
When the doorknob rattled, Scarlett Johansson quickly hid in the adjacent bathroom.
The matching toiletries made her eyes sting even more.
Coming here felt like bringing shame upon herself.
No one could understand the pain in her heart right now.
The time she spent filming with Xu Can was like a dream.
She never thought she could have such close communication with Xu Can. Their intimate scenes were fleeting, that kind of tenderness was like a very short love affair!
But she would never regret it. With such brief tenderness came happiness!
After hearing the sound of footsteps going downstairs, Scarlett Johansson quietly came out of the bathroom.
As soon as she got downstairs, she saw the backs of the two of them leaving.
Through the window, she could still see their backs, secretly delighted that they had fooled everyone.
The two of them, bickering like that, looked exactly like a perfect match.
Xu Can stayed by Taylor Swift's side all night and didn't return to the party; the party didn't lose its zest because of Xu Can's departure!
The 67th Film Academy Awards were about to be announced.
Xu Can originally didn't want to go.
But unexpectedly, he received 11 nominations simultaneously.
"gravity"
The organizers strongly demanded that Director Xu Canmust attend, otherwise, he would miss out on this great opportunity!
"Currently, 11 nominations are the most for any film. If you don't attend, our entire Awards ceremony will be very awkward. You wouldn't look down on us just because we're not as good as the Oscar Awards, would you?"
Xu Can twitched the corner of his mouth; they thought this kind of threat was effective.
"Captain Phillips" had nine nominations, while "12 Years a Slave" and "American Hustle" both had only 10 nominations.
If Xu Can could be there, everyone would know he was the biggest winner.
Such a scene was unheard of.
After some hesitation, he decided to attend, wanting to see what kind of Awards he could ultimately receive.
Xu Can, in a black suit with exquisite cufflinks, slowly walked onto the stage.
Beside him stood the equally well-matched Taylor Swift.
Her golden hair was curled into large waves, casually draped over her shoulders.
Her dark blue gown was exceptionally dazzling, making her skin appear even fairer.
Taylor Swift, with a smile, linked her arm through Xu Can's.
"It's still a bit cold today. I've prepared milk tea for you later, so don't catch a cold!"
"You're always so thoughtful. I didn't expect you to understand our Chinese habits now."
"I told you, from now on, I'm your virtuous helper. That's a term I just learned; I didn't use it wrong, did I?"
"Of course not!"
The host on stage looked at the seated Xu Can with admiration.
Recently, Xu Can's various films have been sweeping all the Awards, a grand scene not seen in decades.
All of a sudden, Xu Can became an idol to many.
The host, also standing on stage, cast an even more adoring gaze towards Xu Can.
After all, he already knew the names of the final Awards.
The preceding Awards were not of interest to Xu Can.
Soon it was time for their grand finale Award.
"Today is also our chance to witness the same film being nominated for the most Awards. We hope everyone can join us in applause to congratulate our Director Xu Can, for his film 'gravity' winning 11 Awards!"
"It is not only an excellent film that brings out the most terrifying and profound feeling in space, but it also magnifies the insignificance of us humans and encourages us to save and redeem ourselves. At the same time, its special effects also won Awards, and its original music is even more deeply moving, winning the Best Original Music Award!"
"I believe everyone is also deeply impressed by its special effects and sound effects. Kung Fu Hustle pays off, their Awards are well-deserved!"
Xu Can went on stage to the encouragement of the crowd.
But in fact, he knew from the beginning that there would be such a result.
Winning this Award undoubtedly increased the popularity of his subsequent films.
Standing in front of the microphone, he had given such acceptance speeches countless times.
The little fangirls below all looked at Xu Can with admiring eyes...
At this moment, all the male celebrities faded into obscurity, leaving only Xu Can standing on stage.
Shining brightly from behind.
"Many people must be wondering why I've received so many Awards. Is there someone behind me, or do I have some unspeakable relationship with someone?"
The people in the audience were stunned; no one had ever dared to say such arrogant words at such a grand Awards ceremony!
Moreover, how could such a blatant relationship be spoken of directly?
In this circle, no one is completely clean; they all have some connections, more or less.
But Xu Can can swear here.
"I am using this Awards ceremony to clarify a fact: the slanders from those groups online are purely baseless. If anyone wants to question my achievements, they can directly attack my ability. There's no need to use such dirty methods; we never owed you anything!"
The ruthlessness in his eyes was not concealed at all. If it were a typical boss, he might have suffered more severe public backlash.
But Xu Can was supported by them.
Online platforms, upon seeing this scene, commented that his speech was very domineering and lacked the usual clichés of gratitude.
"This is truly what he wanted to say from the bottom of his heart. Why can't he say it? Why should he follow the rules!"
"Exactly! They're just afraid of offending people, but Xu Can is very courageous. He's never worried about offending any boss. He's already strong enough; he doesn't need others to dictate his actions!"
"I've already pre-ordered the next movie. Even though they haven't finished filming yet, I'm already looking forward to it!"
"Xu Can is too domineering! I've fallen in love with him all over again!"
After a deep bow, Xu Can stepped off the stage.
He thanked everyone for listening to his arrogant words, thanked them for giving him this opportunity, thanked them for presenting so many Awards to this film, and thanked so many people for their love of his film!
But it was all contained in that one bow, so he wouldn't waste everyone's time with more unnecessary words.
These many Awards came from everyone's collective effort!
Xu Can swept his gaze across the staff below the stage.
He paid them his highest respects.
Chapter 177: A Clear Distinction, a Successful Breakthrough!
This film truly involved a lot of his effort, and it is a rare space science fiction film.
Xu Can looked at the crowd below the stage.
Some people were not genuinely congratulating him.
But Xu Can still held the highest respect for this stage; this Award was truly fair.
Especially the Oscar Awards, their data doesn't lie, and everyone's popularity is reflected in the data.
Some people always harbor ill intentions and speculate about others, but Xu Can relied entirely on his true strength.
After all, who could remember so many already accomplished film scripts?
Having memories from his previous life was an opportunity for him.
Xu Can never hesitated to use this skill.
Especially at this stage.
After the Awards ceremony, Xu Can still gave funds to the other members of his team so they could celebrate.
Constantly being harsh on others would only increase their work pressure, which is not conducive to everyone continuing their future cooperation.
Xu Can would not overwork them during their rest period.
"Our Director's tradition is truly rare and excellent! Especially with our boss winning so many Awards, our gatherings are so much fun!"
The staff looked on with admiration.
They had never followed such a good boss before.
"Alright, stop flattering me. If you don't leave now, I might change my mind!"
The staff quickly took their cards and left!
As soon as he returned to the villa, he found it brightly lit inside.
He originally thought it was Taylor Swift.
In the past few days, due to work, he hadn't spent much time with Taylor Swift, so he figured she might be a little temperamental.
Xu Can skillfully draped his clothes over the rack nearby.
He walked towards the kitchen as usual.
He was really a bit too tired today.
Xu Can walked forward with his eyes half-closed.
He was so tired he could barely walk, but he still wanted to recharge by leaning on Taylor Swift's back.
So he didn't clearly see who the woman in front of him was.
Scarlett Johansson saw that Xu Can had been busy with the Captain America movie all day and then had to rush to attend the Awards ceremony in the evening. As soon as he came off the stage, Scarlett Johansson noticed that he was very tired!
She figured he wouldn't have time to cook when he got home, and eating unhealthy takeout would definitely not be good for his body.
After the last party, Scarlett Johansson remembered the password here.
She took it upon herself to come to the villa.
Initially, she was terrified, unsure if she would run into Taylor Swift, but when she saw everything was dark, she knew she had made the right gamble.
At least the two of them wouldn't be too awkward. Scarlett Johansson also wanted to do something for Xu Can in a tangible way.
Otherwise, she would feel like she hadn't made any effort, and she would have regrets.
The distance between Xu Can and her had to be closed by her own efforts.
She bought the freshest vegetables and seafood from the supermarket.
Scarlett Johansson had accurately remembered Xu Can's favorite dishes during their casual gatherings.
It was all for this day!
When she hugged him from behind, Xu Can suddenly smelled a different scent.
Taylor Swift never used this brand of perfume.
And this brand of perfume was Scarlett Johansson's!
Xu Can wasn't disgusted, but rather a little startled. He suddenly opened his eyes and moved away from her back.
He had just mistaken her for someone else.
"Why is it you?"
When those big hands came up, Scarlett Johansson was very excited at first, and the smile on her lips never faded until she heard that sentence!
When she hugged him from behind, she even felt as if the two of them were living a normal life, like an ordinary couple.
If they could really continue like this, with time stopped at this moment, she didn't know how happy she would be!
But she never expected Xu Can to respond like that.
"I came to cook for you. Seeing how tired you looked at the awards ceremony, I figured no one would be cooking when you got back, so I came over..."
Xu Can looked at her bowed head and could guess what she was thinking.
But since he had a beautiful woman in his arms, why would he refuse?
Seeing her flustered look, Xu Can said casually,
"I can smell it, it really is fragrant."
"Now that you mention it, I am a bit hungry. I'm really looking forward to your dinner tonight."
Scarlett Johansson was very pleasantly surprised.
She quickly stirred the dishes in the pot.
"These are China dishes I specially learned to cook. I hope you like them!"
"You've worked hard, you put your heart into it."
Scarlett Johansson shyly shook her head.
This was all she should do.
"You should go take a hot bath first and relax. You've been really tired lately..."
When Xu Can came out wrapped in a bath towel, the dining table was already filled with dishes!
This was indeed a great temptation for him.
Coming home from work to find a woman waiting for you at home, preparing a table full of dishes for you—this kind of warmth was something he hadn't experienced in a long time.
He couldn't help but stare at Scarlett Johansson's face.
Unfortunately, his girlfriend was already confirmed to be Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift definitely had a place in his heart, and as for whether others could fit in, that would depend on their performance.
"You try it first and see if you can eat it. This is my first time trying to cook China dishes for someone else, so I don't know if it suits your taste!"
Xu Can smiled slightly, and as he lowered his head, the collar of his bathrobe loosened a bit.
Scarlett Johansson shyly turned her head away.
But she also lingered a bit.
He was indeed a bit too tired. After Xu Can ate his fill, he fell into a deep sleep.
He didn't even pay attention to the beautiful woman beside him.
Besides movie matters, he also had to deal with public opinion recently.
And then there were consecutive awards ceremonies.
His body was indeed a bit tired, and he didn't even have time to check his phone.
Taylor Swift had already sent him a message, saying she had other activities tonight and couldn't come to Xu Can's home to take care of him!
But Taylor Swift never expected someone to have already taken advantage of the opening.
However, Xu Can's physique for attracting fangirls always remained.
Scarlett Johansson cleaned up the outside meticulously.
She didn't know why, but when cleaning Xu Can's house, she always felt a sense of accomplishment and happiness.
At her own home, she really didn't want to move at all.
After cleaning up, she carefully went to Xu Can's bedroom, wondering if she would wake him.
She tiptoed over and found that Xu Can was already fast asleep.
He must have been too exhausted, and his body had entered a state of deep sleep.
Scarlett Johansson quietly approached Xu Can's body.
Even her breathing became rapid.
Chapter 178: Strategic Expert, Captain AmericaSuccessfully Takes the Stage
"He's really handsome."
Scarlett Johansson secretly took a few photos beside him.
Actually, she had no ulterior motives; she just wanted to keep them as a souvenir.
At dawn, Scarlett Johansson left in a hurry.
She still had many other jobs, and even if she wanted to stay there, she couldn't always be by Xu Can's side.
If she could wholeheartedly be Xu Can's capable wife, she would probably be willing.
Rubbing his aching head, Xu Can woke up from his sleep.
Only the lingering scent of food in the Room proved that Scarlett Johansson had been there last night.
But today, he had a more important task: he had to get the Captain America movie approved.
His public image had indeed affected the movie's review some time ago.
But fortunately, everything had come to light now. It's just that those reporters probably wouldn't give up, but that was a later matter.
The Captain America movie was bound to be successfully released; this was a rare Marvel movie that would be a successful breakthrough.
The release date was also something he had confirmed in advance, to space it out from the next few movies.
They couldn't clash with other releases, otherwise, it would severely affect its box office.
The staff in the publicity department were waiting.
A confirmed release date was needed to re-release promotional slogans.
During this waiting process, they couldn't help but feel some doubt.
In fact, they had already passed the internal movie review.
And obtained the corresponding China Film Administration approval.
However, after the subsequent distribution license entered the technical review process, this public opinion storm occurred.
Normally, the process wouldn't have a big impact, but Xu Can's popularity was too immense, and the resulting public opinion storm had a very strong influence.
So the film bureau had to review it carefully.
They also had to consider social impact and some damage from public opinion.
Xu Can understood them very well, but now that the situation had completely ended, they could get the distribution license.
Once the distribution license was obtained, a confirmed release date could be successfully secured.
Upon arriving at the film bureau, as soon as they heard Xu Can had arrived, they immediately prepared an office.
The conference Room was also prepared in advance.
Xu Can was currently the God of Cinema; no movie he was involved in had a low box office, especially the high revenue he generated, which also broke records and was difficult to surpass.
Moreover, if Xu Can could be kept in Hollywood, it would be very beneficial for their cultural dissemination.
This was also one of their trump cards.
If Xu Can were to leave Hollywood and return to China, they might lose a significant figure.
Xu Can leaned back in his chair.
"All the public opinion dynamics are over now, and my other movie has received multiple Awards nominations. Why is this current movie still being held back?!"
The other party sent a junior staff member.
"We're not refusing to approve it for you, it's just that public opinion was fervent a while ago. We have to make a show of it, otherwise they'll definitely think the review process is always giving you a pass, which isn't good for our reputation!"
"When you came this time, we had already prepared the approved license, just waiting for you to take it back!"
Xu Can didn't have time to waste with them there.
He took the license and left, which indeed seemed impolite in others' eyes.
But in the eyes of the staff, it meant he wasn't bothering with them.
The decisive Xu Can quickly signed various contracts.
This film was also going to be broadcast on major media platforms.
But he also wanted this film to enter China.
This required multiple layers of review, and it wouldn't be able to be released anytime soon.
Now he understood why sometimes movie release dates were inconsistent.
In addition to the outbound review, there was also a distribution review, and it also needed to obtain approval from the national Ministry of Culture for introduction!
This series of procedures would still take some time.
Xu Can tried to apply.
Unexpectedly, he received a reply in less than an hour.
As soon as the other party heard that it was Xu Can's movie to be introduced, no one refused, so they quickly submitted the approval.
Xu Can was surprised by the speed of this process.
Since the most important procedures were already completed, the subsequent reviews were handed over to his assistant.
Now they could be released simultaneously.
The publicity department also quickly began promoting the final release period.
But they didn't dare to stop.
The cities for the roadshows and various personnel arrangements also needed to be determined in advance.
But for some reason, there were always staff members who couldn't arrive within the stipulated time, possibly due to road conditions and plane tickets.
Xu Can began to ponder.
It seemed that a private helicopter needed to be put on the agenda.
In the subsequent movie promotion process, there would be no need for such incomplete staffing.
Otherwise, it would greatly affect everyone's viewing experience.
What they wanted to see were all the main creators.
But due to accidents caused by various unexpected situations, there would always be a somewhat unsatisfactory sense of fulfillment.
Xu Can didn't want the roadshow to be imperfect.
When Scarlett Johansson learned the confirmed time, she rushed to Xu Can's office in a panic.
She was initially flustered, but when she saw Xu Can's handsome face, her expression became shy.
Xu Can cleared his throat, only then recovering from his reverie.
"Are you here to ask me about the plans for the upcoming roadshow?"
"I... I'm not. Because I haven't even seen the finished film myself, I'm actually very nervous. Is there really no part that I re-recorded? Now that everyone is paying so much attention to this film, if I drag the whole team down..."
Xu Can smiled slightly.
The two of them sat on the sofa chairs nearby.
He handed over the coffee next to him.
"Don't worry, if you weren't capable, I wouldn't have let you continue to play Scarlett Johansson. You have completely integrated with this role, and your performance is Scarlett Johansson herself. What's there to be unsure about when you're just being your true self?"
Xu Can pursed his lips.
"Unless you don't trust me, or you think my Director skills aren't good enough, which is why you have such concerns."
"Or do you think cooperating with me is not as good as cooperating with others?"
Scarlett Johansson immediately panicked.
She quickly waved her hand.
She quickly put down the coffee in her hand.
Her gaze drifted as she looked at Xu Can, then she said anxiously and melancholically, "Everyone has high expectations for you, I don't want to lower the box office because of me..."
"If you were afraid of lowering the box office, you should have had such concerns during the filming process, and there's no result yet for the final box office. Such concerns are completely useless, unless you're not confident in my script either!"
Xu Can's comfort made Scarlett Johansson feel a little more at ease.
Chapter 179: International Simultaneous Release, Box Office Breaks $1 Billion!
Actually, it was also an excuse to get closer to Xu Can.
After that night, Scarlett Johansson didn't know what other excuse to find to get closer to Xu Can.
Scarlett Johansson wanted to ask Xu Can out for dinner that night.
The excuse was the upcoming roadshow.
"I..."
Beep.
As soon as Scarlett Johansson spoke, Xu Can's phone rang.
He looked down.
It was Gao Yuanyuan.
"Can you come to my Room tonight?"
The few words on the screen were exceptionally clear.
Scarlett Johansson clenched her fists. Had she fallen behind again?
She had indeed seen them getting close.
But she hadn't expected them to have progressed to this stage.
Was it because this woman wanted more roles that she got close?
They were both Chinese, so they would definitely have more communication.
Wouldn't that mean she would fall behind?
Scarlett Johansson had a sudden idea.
"I think it's best if we do a live broadcast tonight. This afternoon is the movie's release period, and a live broadcast tonight can strike while the iron is hot, encouraging everyone to watch in the subsequent screenings. If we broadcast any later, we won't be able to capture the buzz, and it won't have much effect!"
Xu Can put down his phone.
This was indeed a good method.
He hadn't expected Scarlett Johansson's thinking to be so avant-garde.
Logically speaking, live broadcasting wasn't too common during this period.
It wouldn't become particularly prominent until two years later.
If they could seize the benefits of live broadcasting at this stage, they might become the first to do it!
They could discuss the script and various roles with everyone from a live broadcast perspective.
This would allow everyone to have an extension after watching the movie.
This could also allow everyone to understand their interpretation of the role as the character themselves more deeply.
"Your idea is excellent. Then we'll execute it tonight. We must get the company to promote it for us now, otherwise, if the specific time is too short, many people might not notice!"
Scarlett Johansson watched as Xu Can put down his phone.
He didn't even have time to reply to the message before going to other departments to notify them.
Gao Yuanyuan waited for a reply for a long time.
She walked back and forth in the Room, feeling a little shy and anxious.
Thinking of that night with the two of them, Gao Yuanyuan felt very joyful inside.
When her phone notification sounded, she eagerly opened the chat box.
But she didn't expect it to be from Xu Can at all.
Gao Yuanyuan had set Xu Can as her most important notification sound, specifically for his social platform.
It turned out that they had movie promotions tonight, which was why he couldn't meet her. She had originally wanted to celebrate his movie's release achievement, and even though it hadn't been released yet, Gao Yuanyuanalready knew it definitely wouldn't be bad!
When it was time for the movie to be released, the entrance of the cinema was already packed with people.
"I absolutely have to watch Xu Can's movie!"
"This movie is amazing! Just watching the promotional videos made my mouth water. It's exactly my cup of tea!"
"Don't underestimate Xu Can's script. Xu Can is a rare genius. He can write a movie script in the shortest amount of time and break the highest box office record. This might be a genius descending to the mortal world!"
"Hurry up and buy more popcorn. I'm definitely going to be completely immersed!"
When the final data appeared, Xu Can smiled happily.
Scarlett Johansson, who was beside him, excitedly hugged Xu Can.
Only after realizing it did she shyly step back.
The first day's box office unexpectedly reached over 80 million.
This was only within the local area.
They were looking at the box office comparison within 10 days.
It would depend on their upcoming promotions.
Xu Can and the others quickly prepared for the evening's live broadcast.
All makeup and styling had to be prepared in advance.
In the evening, they would recreate the makeup and styling from the movie, so that even after watching the movie, everyone could still feel the story from the movie through the live broadcast.
As Scarlett Johansson was putting on makeup, she looked at herself in the mirror, as if she was back to the process of them filming the movie.
After this live broadcast, apart from the roadshows later, there seemed to be no reason for the two of them to get close again.
So, she rushed to Xu Can's lounge like crazy.
Xu Can immediately understood when he saw the tears in Scarlett Johansson's eyes.
There were many makeup artists nearby, and he couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't truthfully reveal what was happening in the lounge, so he could only temporarily let them leave.
"You all go back and rest for a bit. I'm a bit tired too."
"I'll call you back for makeup in half an hour."
There was still time.
Snap.
The moment the door closed, Scarlett Johansson couldn't help but hug Xu Can.
Xu Can naturally put his arm around her.
With his arm strength, he effortlessly picked her up and placed her on his lap.
Scarlett Johansson gasped, only to find herself already in the man's arms.
"I thought you disliked me..."
Xu Can looked at her pitiful face and couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her.
"You're really naughty. You just know how to tease me here. What, can't hold back now? Wasn't yesterday good at holding back?"
"So you knew all along yesterday... I thought you were already asleep, and I left after tidying up the food!"
Xu Can reached up and flicked her nose.
"I'm a light sleeper by nature, but I was really too tired, so I couldn't open my eyes."
"I just thought that in the future, I might not be able to be so openly intimate with you, and I found it a bit unbearable. I couldn't control my feelings for you, even though I know you have a girlfriend..."
Scarlett Johansson said anxiously, "But I really like you. I just ask that you save a place for me in your heart. I won't compete with them too much..."
"You're truly too sensible."
The two of them got closer and closer.
Xu Can also couldn't control the desire in his heart.
The makeup artists waited outside the door for a moment. Without Xu Can's permission, they couldn't enter rashly.
And Xu Can did indeed exceed half an hour.
But he knew no one dared to disturb them.
From the chair in the dressing room all the way to the bed nearby.
Scarlett Johansson felt like her waist was about to break.
But she was still very glad that she couldn't resist coming to find Xu Can today.
Scarlett Johansson leaned against him, panting.
"Can I find you again in the future?"
Xu Can raised an eyebrow and said very gently, "Of course you can."
Time was tight, they couldn't continue to linger.
Xu Can gently kissed Scarlett Johansson on the head.
"Get up quickly. The live broadcast is waiting for us. I'm afraid your makeup artist will have to redo your makeup and styling. Your lipstick is already gone."
Scarlett Johansson pouted, "It's all because of you. You were too forceful just now, I..."
"Oh, never mind. I'll go find the makeup artist to do my makeup first. See you in the live broadcast room in a bit."
Chapter 180: Strategic Expert, Captain AmericaSuccessfully Ascends!
At the live broadcast, people who had watched the movie were frantically sending gifts in the live broadcast room.
Tonight, Xu Can's attire was no different from that in the movie.
It was as if the characters from the movie appeared on the screen, communicating with them face to face.
Those who had just watched the movie felt it was a blessing.
"Where can you find a movie with such after-sales service nowadays? Only Xu Can can bring us such surprises!"
"Look, Scarlett Johansson is here too..."
"The two of them really have great chemistry now. It would be great if they could be together in real life too!"
"Actually, I haven't recovered from the previous movie yet. If they could perform a scene from the movie live, it would be perfect!"
"But a movie is a movie after all. Not everyone can complete it without any special effects!"
There was also a host on site controlling the rhythm of the entire live broadcast room.
Otherwise, their live broadcast room would become very awkward.
"First, I'd like to thank our two main characters for taking time out of their busy schedules to come to our live broadcast room for after-sales service. Actually, I just learned this term from the live broadcast room, and it can be considered an after-sales gift for our movie!"
Xu Can smiled slightly.
It seemed that so many people liked this kind of after-sales service.
"Let's take a look at the scene. What do the audience members want to ask our main characters? We will select a few questions to ask live, and there will also be a live call-in segment at the end. It all depends on which audience member is lucky enough to have a face-to-face conversation with our main characters!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, the barrage of comments on the screen scrolled frantically.
The speed was astonishing!
The words on it were completely unreadable to the naked eye.
One could only temporarily drag the screen to see the specific comments.
The host was a bit dazed.
He rubbed his eyes, trying to get closer to the screen.
"If I use my eyes like this again, I might not be able to catch everyone's comments. Please, some audience members, do not repeatedly spam the screen. We have a shielding mechanism on site, which will seriously affect our ability to capture audience questions!"
After finally getting the whole room under control.
The host quickly selected a few questions.
"Why can Black Widow always be so sexy!"
Instantly, the scene became extremely awkward.
Xu Can looked at the question with some surprise.
The host, on the other hand, turned around nervously to look at the staff behind him!
Who understood? He just wanted to quickly capture a question and move on to the next segment.
Who would have thought he would capture such a question!
The words were already out, and it was impossible for him to retract them.
Xu Can saved the day.
"Are you implying that I'm not sexy?"
Suddenly, this sentence was no longer a teasing tone.
Cough, cough.
The host quickly took over.
"Let's move on to the next question. Mr. Xu Can, what is your understanding of this role?"
The screen switched to Xu Can.
Xu Can's enlarged headshot filled the entire screen.
His pores were terrifyingly detailed.
There were no blemishes or acne marks.
He looked like a very disciplined man.
"I believe the entire movie will immerse you in an atmosphere. After watching it, everyone should feel that Captain America is a very strong man on the outside, but as you delve deeper into the film, you will discover that he is a man of both determination and wisdom!"
He also performed based on this understanding.
Hearts flashed wildly on the screen.
Gifts in the live stream never stopped.
Piercing Arrow x100!!
The moment the image appeared, the host was stunned.
He widened his eyes.
Fortunately, the backend had minimized their screen.
Xu Can glanced at it indifferently.
This income was a drop in the bucket for him.
But it could express everyone's love for his movie and this character.
He continued, "Throughout the movie, there will be grand scenes created by various super weapons, and our special effects team was extremely dedicated. This movie is the result of everyone's hard work, and it will allow you to feel the human body's ability to push to its limits. The entire viewing experience is very worthwhile, and everyone will surely gain a lot from it!"
The host put on an enraptured expression.
Professionals truly do professional things.
This single expression infected everyone, and combined with Xu Can's words, it immersed them in the previous movie.
As some questions concluded,
It quickly moved to the live call-in segment.
As expected, there were still a few very impolite people who immediately verbally insulted Black Widow.
Xu Can's face instantly darkened.
He frowned tightly, and everyone in the live stream felt a chill.
They couldn't help but pull their clothes tighter.
This coldness emanated entirely from Xu Can.
"The boss is angry!"
"He can't even force a smile now, and we can't persuade him…"
"Why did they have to use such harsh words to describe a girl!"
A portion of the people in the live stream were startled by Xu Can's expression.
From beginning to end, Xu Can had maintained a gentle attitude, yet they still used provocative language towards Black Widow.
0 ....
Scarlett Johansson secretly tugged at Xu Can's sleeve under the table.
Her lips moved as if to speak, saying, "Don't bother with them, you always encounter these kinds of people, I'm already used to it."
"Everyone in the live stream is watching now, you absolutely must not get angry, it's bad for your image!"
Xu Can ignored her.
His cold eyes looked over.
The bullet comments instantly shifted direction.
"I feel like that gaze is going to pierce through the screen and eat me!"
"Good thing I wasn't the one who said those things just now, otherwise I'd feel a chill down my spine right now!"
"Are they role-playing now too? Their feelings for each other are so deep, just because someone cursed Scarlett Johansson, Xu Can got angry!"
"This after-sales service is too good, they are still in character, I truly love it. Tomorrow I'm going to watch the movie again!"
Xu Can disliked their impolite behavior.
He brought the microphone closer to his mouth.
His gaze was extremely sharp.
"I will not humble myself for the movie's box office. I'm referring to these impolite people. You can choose not to watch my movie, but please show some respect to others!"
"No one needs to accept your unreasonable inquiries. If anyone else engages in such verbal provocation and insult, you can try challenging my bottom line!"
Scarlett Johansson suddenly turned her head.
Her eyes were full of emotion and tenderness.
At this moment, it was as if she had a powerful reliance.
Before, she could only swallow her anger!.
