After Rebirth, I Decided To Inherit the Family Property

Chapter 53 – Dad is not free to play with you.

Two days later, a joyful cry suddenly rang out in the office of Xinghe’s president.

“Three hundred million? I heard it right!”

Song Yunran raised his head and confirmed with joy.

Assistant Tang replied, “It’s 300 million, and the ratings on several movie apps are also very high.
This is still two working days at the box office, and when this weekend passes, it may be able to exceed 1.5 billion.”

Song Yunran took a deep breath, his head was stimulated by the box office performance to become dizzy.

He couldn’t remember how much box office the movie got in two days of release in his previous life.
But anyway, when “The Red and White Wedding” was finally released in the past, the box office had just reached 1.5 billion.

In terms of its production cost, it was already a great success in the previous life.

But even Song Yunran himself didn’t expect that this time the opening results could be so spectacular.

Thanks to me, Song Yunran thought, if it wasn’t for him, a business wizard, “Hong Bai Xi Xi” would not have achieved such a huge success.

He grinned happily and asked, “You didn’t think much of this movie at first, but now do you know you were wrong?”

“Wrong wrong.” Assistant Tang nodded repeatedly, “I still need to learn more from you in the future.”

The sincere praise made Song Yunran’s heart float up to the sky.

He proudly went around the office several times, and when he was happy enough, he sat down and cleared his throat in a deep voice: “Well, you can’t be too proud.”

Assistant Tang held back his laughter: “One more thing, are you interested in participating in a variety show recording?”

Song Yunran: “What kind of variety show?”

Assistant Tang briefly introduced the situation and watched the President’s face change from ecstasy to numbness, and secretly screamed that it was not good.

As expected, Song Yunran didn’t even think about it and refused straight away: “Recording a variety show with Qin Ke? I won’t go!”

He flipped through the documents in his hand, feeling that these people are getting more and more unbridled.

It’s not easy for his president’s career to take off, but they want to push him into a variety show.
It’s obvious that they want to make use of his popularity for the company’s benefit.

He can’t let them get what they want.

The person across the table, Assistant Tang, felt very sorry for them.

When Chen Jing found him, he thought it was absurd at first, but on second thought, he felt it was possible.

Anyway, Song Yunran’s online popularity is very high, if you can take advantage of the variety show as a chance to appear in the circle again, in the future, the Xiao Song will be a mobile-live advertisement.
Whenever Xinghe has any project online, as long as you rely on Song Yunran to call out, it would save a large amount of marketing costs.

This time, there is also Qin Ke to participate.

The two hottest people in Xinghe are appearing at the same time and it can be called a century old frame.

Assistant Tang is all excited just thinking about it.
Is this the recording of a variety show?

No, this is simply to break new ground for the future of Xinghe!

After pondering for a long time, Assistant Tang decided to administer the right medicine: “President Song, don’t you want to show your president’s style in the variety show? The number of people who will be impressed by your extraordinary temperament at that time, do you really not want to see it?”

Song Yunran fingertips gave a pause, it was actually damn exciting.

He slowly closed the folder, with a little doubt in his eyes.

’

Assistant Tang struck while the iron was hot: “And the variety show is scheduled to air in the first quarter, by then Xinghe also happens to have a drama to be on, so it’s a good opportunity to promote it.”

Zhong Xiaofeng’s first script “After I Met You” had already finished filming and was in the midst of intense post-production.

The production period of the web drama is shorter than that of a movie, and since the drama is a very good urban romance subject, it will be available to the audience in the first quarter of next year if there are no accidents.

It sounded like a reasonable arrangement, but Song Yunran narrowed his eyes and asked, “You’re acting so positive, you don’t want to see me and Qin Ke interacting and getting hooked, do you?”

Assistant Tang hurriedly confirmed, “Of course not!”

He didn’t want to lose his year-end bonus for next year as well.

Song Yunran coldly snorted, still suspicious.

Now that he has penetrated the CP fan, he knows all about the culture of getting high, and the more Assistant Tang denies it, the more suspicious he feels.

Besides, Qin Ke also used him as a dog to rub……

Song Yunran completely forgot that he started it, and frowned in discontent.

No, he must exercise his pride and joy in self-control and resist temptation!

Song Yunran came to a conclusion, “You should stop saying that, I’m not going to go anyway.”

He is now a superb investor who is about to make $1.5 billion at the box office.

To take part in a variety show?

That doesn’t fit his status.

In the following week, the box office of “Hong Bai Xi Xi ” was so strong that not only the netizens who were optimistic about it cried out in delight, but also the netizens who had previously mocked it in an ominous manner covered their faces and could not say anything.

In the first two days of its release, they were still hoping that a foreign blockbuster released at the same time could dominate the box office.
But as they watched more and more cinemas seize the opportunity to allocate more and better venues to “Hong Bai Xi Xi”, they felt more and more that fate was playing a joke on them.

How can such a movie with a total investment of only tens of millions of dollars beat foreign blockbusters with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars?

And what made them feel even more incredible was that the praise for Qin Ke during the screening period was also acknowledged by more viewers as the movie’s word-of-mouth fermented.

At first everyone thought it was Xinghe’s water army that came down, but by the time their friends and family around them started to praise it, the crowd finally couldn’t help but be shaken in their hearts and decided to go to the cinema to find out for themselves.

“And then they were really impressed.”

In the car going to the event site, Xiao Ke finished summarizing and asked curiously, “How come you’re not excited at all? So calm as if you have long been used to it.”

Qin Ke: “……”

He experienced them in his first life, and is indeed used to them.

Xiao Ke saw that he was not moved, so he had to put away his phone resentfully, “It seems that sister Jing is really not wrong.”

“Hmm?”

“She said that you are different from other artists of your age, you don’t have big mood swings.
You are always honorable and unfazed, always cloudy and relaxed.”

Qin Ke laughed softly, unable to explain why, and could only tacitly agree to the other party’s statement.

Quiet for a moment, he asked again, “Xiao Song is still not willing to participate in the variety show?”

’

Xiao Ke said, “Why are you still concerned about this? Assistant Tang said he had persuaded him several times, but Xiao Song refused to come.
He is probably just not interested in recording variety shows.”

Qin Ke lowered his eyelashes, and a fleeting sadness swept under his eyes.

These days his schedule is very full, in addition to the film promotion, there are also many brands and magazines actively seeking cooperation.

In Chen Jing’s words, it is through the film’s east wind, his heavy workload has been scheduled until the end of the year.

And that’s all, even taking into account the fact that his shoulder injury has not yet healed.

He has not been home for a few days, and is also attending an event out of town today.
There is no time to talk to Song Yunran face to face.

And the messages he sent to Song Yunran were somehow always lost in the sea.

“Xiao Song has been very busy lately?” Qin Ke suddenly asked.

Xiao Ke choked for a moment before saying, “Whether the president is busy or not, it seems to be an area I don’t deserve to care about.”

Qin Ke gave a “hmm” and turned his head to look out the window, no longer talking.

Song Yunran did have something to do recently.

He had received an invitation to a year-end conference for a certain online entertainment company.

When Assistant Tang told him the good news, Song Yunran was very excited.

You know, he had been looking forward to this day from the moment he gave up acting and went into business.

The day when he could be laughing and talking with people in the middle of a party and winning hundreds of millions of dollars in a minute is the life a president should lead, not going to some variety show.

Song Yunran’s determination grew stronger and stronger, believing that this was a blessing from the heavens.
He hoped that he would go further and further down the right path.

Compared to his simple happiness, all the top management of the company was a lot more impressed.

It was the first time Xinghe Entertainment had been invited to an industry conference in the past six years, and everyone felt as if a university student had finally emerged from the village, and they prepared a PPT for Song Yunran’s presentation without him even having to say anything.

When Song Yunran received the PPT, it was almost the end of the day.
After thinking about it, he said to Assistant Tang, “Send it to my email.
Today I have to go to pull investment, so I’ll read it when I get home.”

Assistant Tang was stunned, thinking he hadn’t heard of it before, so he asked, “Where are you going to pull in investment?”

“Of course it’s my parents’ house.”

Song Yunran rightfully explained, “I think the publicity of the “Hongbai Xixi” is good, I plan to follow this approach for every project in the future.
This is a long-term cooperation, we should always sit down and talk about it.”

Assistant Tang: “……”

Once is fine, according to his assumptions, Bai Waning and Song Jidong should not always let Xiao Song have what he wants.

But this is a family discussion behind closed doors, he can not say much, can only send blessings: “Wish you success.”

Song Yunran confidently raised his chin: “Leave it to me, it will be no problem.”

However, a few hours later, a pot of cold water was poured down.

After hearing her son’s request, Bai Waning decisively refused: “I don’t agree with your idea.”

Song Yunran was shocked: “Why?!”

’

He thought that with the success of “Hongbai Xixi” right in front of him, his parents would definitely approve of his idea.

And hadn’t it been agreed that he could use Ning Dong’s resources at will?

Bai Waning and her husband exchanged a few glances.
She looked at her puffed-up son, and helplessly pointed out, “The last time the publicity was good because people felt it was new, but if you use the same way of publicity every time in the future, you will only attract people’s boredom in the long run.
Besides, can you guarantee that every project in the future will be better than the one before?”

“……”

Song Yunran wanted to say he could, but eventually shook his head.

There would be no constant conquerors in the world, and he couldn’t always invest in the works that had appeared in his previous life.

So he can’t guarantee it.

Bai Waning: “This is a shortcut, but even if you make one investment mistake, it will put the whole group’s image into jeopardy.
Do you think mom and dad will allow you to risk all of our hard work every time?”

Song Yunran, who had returned home with great ambition, was now completely withered.

He understood what his mother said, but he didn’t expect Bai Waning to refuse so resolutely.

Song Jidong couldn’t bear to see his son’s aggrieved look and came forward to say, “Your idea is fine, but you still have to change your mind according to the specific situation.
Since this is a web series, why not put the focus on the internet?”

Song Yunran explained, “The focus of publicity is definitely on the Internet.
I’m just trying to add an extra layer of insurance.”

“Then you can’t always pull the wool over the family’s eyes.”

Bai Waning took over the topic, “I think this is an opportunity, you can try to rely only on yourself this time, see how far you can go.”

Song Yunran is confused, only relying on himself?

What else could he do besides the usual publicity tactics?

It’s not as if he was really going to take part in a variety show, right?

He couldn’t think of a better way to do it, and was still lying in bed late at night, tossing and turning.

The phone next to his pillow rang several times, repeatedly interrupting his thoughts.

Song Yunran got annoyed and picked it up to see that it was Cheng Jiaming who had sent him another message.

[Mr.
Song! I’m going to be live again today, will you come and watch?]

Song Yunran looked at the screen and was regretful.

If he had known that Qin Ke was also a reborn person, he should have let Qin Ke guard against Cheng Jiaming’s tricks on the wires, instead of transforming himself into a mentor of life, to give Cheng Jiaming some encouragement and advice.

As a result, Cheng Jiaming seemed as if he had a young bird effect on him, and had repeatedly invited him to watch a live game.

Song Yunran did not bother to reply, and closed the dialog box to go back.
Then his line of sight swept to the previous message sent by Qin Ke.

The same message he did not reply to.
Anyway, it said that he wanted him to participate in the variety show.

“I don’t know why he’s insisting on it, but I clearly said I wouldn’t go.”

Song Yunran muttered to himself, while a vague feeling of joy rose up inside him.

I’m so important to you people?

’

He swept his gaze back and forth between Cheng Jiaming and Qin Ke’s names for a few moments, feeling as if he should respond to this, otherwise it would seem as if he was being rude.

So Song Yunran first returned to Qin Ke: [Too busy with work, dad is not free to play with you.]

Then he switched to Cheng Jiaming’s chat window: [Give me the link to the live streaming session.]

Cheng Jiaming replied in seconds: [I’ll send it right away! I’m quite popular now, and my level is higher than before, so I can take you to fly in the future.]

Song Yunran laughed.

He and Cheng Jiaming didn’t hit it off, and he was really annoyed by the other party.
He planned to just go into the live room tonight and reward some gifts, and then say goodbye.

On the other hand, Qin Ke has just returned to his hotel room after today’s event.

He has another road show to attend tomorrow, and the staff of the clothing brand he is endorsing also came to the hotel and asked him to choose the clothes he would wear tomorrow.

This is a rather complicated job.

He needs to try on a few sets, and then the brand and stylist will work together to finalize the overall look.

Just after trying on the second set out, he heard a staff member say, “Hey, our Crown Prince actually went to watch Cheng Jiaming’s live broadcast and seemed to have rewarded a lot of money, which was screenshotted and sent out.”

Next to him, Xiao Ke picked up, “Are you sure it’s Chief Xiao Song?”

“Here, it’s exactly the same as his Weibo id.” The man handed over his phone for Xiao Ke to see.

Xiao Ke was about to go up to him when he suddenly shivered unconsciously.

He turned his head and looked at Qin Ke, who was slowly walking towards the stylist, and his mind could not help but recall the scene when they were shooting “Jianghu Lu” and overheard that Cheng Jiaming and Song Yunran were playing games.

Qin Ke noticed his eyes and asked in a light voice, “What are you looking at me for?”

“No, nothing.” Xiao Ke shook his head.

Qin Ke withdrew his gaze, talked to the stylist for a few minutes, and took another suit into the room.

As soon as the door was locked, he picked up the phone in his hand, tapped on WeChat and saw the message Song Yunran had sent him half an hour ago, then slowly raised his eyebrows.

Song Yunran still didn’t know that he had been screenshotted by netizens and was watching the live broadcast with great interest.

He didn’t want to pay attention to Cheng Jiaming, but the current teammate of Cheng Jiaming is very high level, playing his favorite hero, so he wanted to learn how to operate.

As a result, when the battle was most intense, the caller interface popped up on the screen unexpectedly.

“Oops!”

Song Yunran was so angry that she wanted to curse, and didn’t take a closer look at it, and urged, “Say it quickly, I’m busy.”

The next second, Qin Ke’s low voice, mixed with the mobile phone’s electric sound came: “Really, Xiao Song is not available to play with me, but free to see Cheng Jiaming?”
