Chapter 318: 317. Huan Ying Poster

"First, let’s establish a connection, and I’ll have the investment department do an evaluation,"

"Well... okay then, I’ll have a word with Li Li. He’s probably going to be over the moon."

Director Li’s works are well-respected in the industry, able to rally a crowd with a single call to action. But even someone as impressive as him has to stand respectfully before capital.

The last time the two met, the man hinted at something throughout the conversation.

—He was out of money, still in need of money!

Being as astute as he was, how could Xie Yunfeng not understand what he was trying to convey?

Bringing his thoughts back, he took out his cell phone and started to draft a message to the other party while his younger cousin spoke up again.

"When you collaborated with Tang Shu before, she was the prop director for ’Heroes in Troubled Times’?"

"Yeah—"

"Then there’s no need to replace anyone this time."

"Hmm....Hmm???"

Xie Yunfeng finally looked up from drafting the message, staring blankly at his cousin.

"Wait, you’re not even an investor yet, and you’re thinking about meddling with the casting issues in the production team?"

Are you getting carried away, little cousin???

The Lantern Festival arrived quietly.

On this day, many people bought sweet dumplings to enjoy at home with their families.

Some cooked at home, others booked restaurants for a family meal, or went out shopping and to the movies together.

And on this very morning, the official Weibo account for ’Heroes in Troubled Times’ released a poster celebrating the film reaching 3.1 billion at the box office.

In the center of the poster stood a woman full of chilly aura, wielding a long sword as she faced the wind, her black robe creating a beautiful arc as it fluttered, a vision of heroic poise.

Perhaps due to the angle of the shot, the image on the poster gave her an air of regal dominance.

At the top of the poster, "3.1 billion" was written as usual, and in the top right corner, the name "Huan Ying" was penned in flamboyant cursive.

As soon as the poster was released, the comments on the official website for ’Heroes in Troubled Times’ erupted into excited screams.

[Ahhh, holy shit, Huan Ying is finally here!!!]

[I’ve been waiting for the official Weibo to release a poster of Huan Ying, never imagined it would coincide with the 3.1 billion box office milestone.]

[Huan Ying! So fierce, it makes my heart melt!!!]

[I opened Weibo and saw this poster, my blood’s boiling, and now I have an urge to watch it a second time—]

[Talking about the floor above, you’re not the only one, I’m already on my second viewing!]

[Ticket purchased, I really want to chop off my hand, but I so want to see Huan Ying in person, when will this movie stop showing? I need to keep it!!!]

[I’m dying, there are actually people hoping their idol’s movie stops showing, are you guys real fans?]

[My uncle is as domineering and powerful as ever, no need to chop off hands, let’s support him—onward!]

...

The internet, due to the sudden emergence of the poster, remained abuzz with activity.

That day, many cinemas received news that the gradually declining box office of ’Heroes in Troubled Times’ showed signs of an upturn.

Cinema managers who received the specific data were bewildered.

"Is this... because today’s the Lantern Festival?"

"Yeah, yeah, people now place more importance on family time. They can’t just sit at home all day long, going out to watch a movie is pretty normal."

"Right, right, a 10% increase in attendance compared to regular days is quite normal for the Lantern Festival, it’ll go back to normal tomorrow, so there’s no need for anyone to rush."

"Normal, perfectly normal, our family is even planning to go out and watch a movie tonight."
