547: Xu Lu: I announce that filming for God of Gamblers has wrapped up, but the crew hasn't disbanded yet, because we still have to film Saint of Gamblers!

"This kid really knows how to stir things up. What 'god of gamblers,' hehe, a bunch of ignorant fools, they believe whatever people post, truly brainless!"

Xiong Tang cursed under his breath:

"At first, they said they were going to film an anti-gambling public service theme, and now they're doing some 'god of gamblers' thing. Damn it, what a hypocritical fellow, truly disgusting!

Either you shouldn't have advertised it like that from the beginning. Others thought you were really going to film such a public service theme, but in the end, it's just a deception..."

After cursing for a while, Xiong Tang felt much better.

However, he scoffed at the news that The kid surnamed Xu knew gambling techniques.

In his opinion, all the behind-the-scenes footage was just a gimmick, all fake, nothing more than stirring up trouble under the guise of promotion.

Other companies' promotions often highlight the good points of the movie's plot.

But Da Xu Culture, where The kid surnamed Xu works, always hypes up that kid's personal stuff, without any originality... Although he constantly grumbled internally, Xiong Tang had to admit that Da Xu Culture's publicity strategy was quite thoughtful.

In fact, Xia Lifei Film and Television had also used such methods, but unfortunately, their company didn't have a big Celebrity like The kid surnamed Xu.

So, the promotional effect was far inferior to Da Xu Culture. This was probably one of the reasons Xiong Tang couldn't stand it.

His own company used this method for promotion and didn't get good results, but The kid surnamed Xu on the other side made a fortune with this trick. Just thinking about it made him angry!

..."Is this still called an anti-gambling public service theme? This is clearly promoting gambling, completely going against the original intention, so shameless!"

On the other side, Brother Min and others, who were also committed to filming this anti-gambling public service theme, were furious after seeing Da Xu Culture's promotional footage.

Brother Min and his group were already quite unhappy about the sudden appearance of a competitor, but they reluctantly dropped the matter, remembering they had backing.

Unexpectedly, the other party became more and more disgusting each time. It was one thing to name the film 'god of gamblers,' but now even the behind-the-scenes footage had such a plot. This was too unethical.

After cursing silently for a while, Brother Min cheered up and said:

"It's okay, we don't need to worry too much. Since Da Xu Culture filmed such a plot, it fundamentally doesn't conform to the anti-gambling public service theme!

Hahahaha, this time they're digging their own grave. They don't even consider what can be filmed and what cannot. Filming haphazardly like this, Da Xu Culture is finished."

"Really, Brother Min? Da Xu Culture's film won't pass the review?"

Someone nearby asked curiously.

Brother Min nodded, stating with certainty:

"Whether it can be released, I don't know, but if they want to participate in our awards, it definitely won't pass the review.

The content simply doesn't meet our entry requirements, and the film title has no cautionary meaning. Absolutely not..."

Hearing this, everyone around breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, to genuinely compete with Da Xu Culture, especially with Director Xu, the group really had no confidence at all.

But now, hearing that Da Xu Culture didn't even qualify to compete, everyone instantly relaxed.

That nervousness in their hearts also vanished without a trace. Since they didn't have to compete with Da Xu Culture, that was truly wonderful.

After all, the person on the other side was Director Xu, the top figure in the entire film industry. How could mere nobodies like them compete with such a great director?

Before, it was just Brother Min who lacked self-awareness, thinking he could achieve something by relying on his uncle. Truly laughable.

"Eh, what are those expressions? Each of you looks relieved. Were you all scared before?"

Brother Min clearly noticed the change in everyone's expressions and asked, dissatisfied.

Aren't you asking the obvious?

Everyone exchanged glances, but out of respect for Brother Min, they quickly replied perfunctorily:

"No, no, Brother Min, we weren't scared at all. We just thought it's better to avoid trouble, and it's best if we just get the award peacefully."

"That's right, our goal is very clear: to win the award. So, it's best not to get into conflicts with people. Harmony brings wealth!"

"Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth. Da Xu Culture is a big company after all, with considerable influence. There's no need for us to confront such an entity; it brings us no benefit whatsoever."

"Exactly, although we're not afraid, we also don't want to create unnecessary complications. Winning an award peacefully is better than anything, so don't act impulsively, it's not worth it!"

Hearing these guys' words, Brother Min couldn't help but feel a wave of discouragement.

From their expressions and tone, it was clear that these guys were very guilty, and just thinking about it made him angry.

"But it's indeed a good thing for us that The kid surnamed Xu isn't getting involved. Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with them, these spineless fellows!"

Brother Min cursed under his breath, deciding not to stoop to their level.

Of course, what he himself didn't want to admit was that he also suddenly felt much lighter, which he could only explain as an illusion... "I announce that 'god of gamblers' has officially wrapped..."

On set, as Xu Lu uttered these words, everyone instantly erupted in cheers.

Although most of the crew members weren't new to wrapping up a film, everyone always felt something different when this moment arrived.

However, after cheering for a while, they noticed that General Manager Xu had no further announcements, which was incredible.

Because in the past, whenever a new drama wrapped, the crew always had a wrap party waiting. Why wasn't there one this time?

Just as everyone was puzzled, Xu Lu clapped his hands again and said with a smile:

"Although 'god of gamblers' has wrapped, it's not yet time for the crew to disband. The wrap party will also have to be postponed for a while, because next, we will continue to film 'saint of gamblers'."

Except for a very few who knew the inside story, everyone else who heard this news was dumbfounded.

saint of gamblers?

The company's upcoming new drama?

What does it have to do with god of gamblers?

Everyone was bewildered, but fortunately, Xu Lu continued:

"The title 'saint of gamblers' shows that it's the same theme as god of gamblers, just a different story.

Because the theme and plot have many similarities, we won't create a new crew; we'll use the original one.

In fact, there's another piece of news to tell everyone: after filming saint of gamblers, there will also be a god of gamblers ii..."

The already shocked crowd was completely stunned after hearing all the news.
