Chapter 95

（A call for votes, it seems like the votes are getting fewer and fewer! Brothers, let's boost it up!）

When Wu Cheng finished recording the album titled "Piano... Rhapsody," "Drunken One" was finally released. As Wu Cheng's first true work, the premiere was naturally not to be missed.

And there were quite a few people who came to attend the premiere, not to mention the celebrities who were familiar with Wu Cheng, especially those from TVB.

Just like the premiere of "Zajia Xiazi," Wu Cheng still set up a red carpet and invited Sister Feifei to be the host. Although Wu Cheng was not very optimistic about the future between Sister Feifei and Zheng Shaqiu, it did not affect Sister Feifei's current status in the hosting world.

When Wu Cheng accompanied Zhao Yazhi, Deng Lijun, and Lin Qingxia to appear together, the reporters on both sides of the red carpet almost went crazy, wasting film as if it were free.

Logically, as the female lead of "Drunken One," Zhao Yazhi should have walked the red carpet with the male lead. However, privately, Zhao Yazhi was clearly a bit jealous of Wu Cheng walking the red carpet with Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia, so Wu Cheng had to bring all three of them.

However, in this situation, it was almost impossible to hold hands. Wu Cheng could not favor one over the other, so he had to follow behind the three women, downplaying his own presence.

Clearly, Wu Cheng's idea was not wrong. With these three golden flowers in front, his presence almost disappeared. It wasn't until he reached Sister Feifei's side that his presence became prominent again, after all, he was the director of this film, and his relationship with the three women was not ordinary.

"Mr. Wu... oh no, now I should call you Director Wu. May I ask, Director Wu, do you have any expectations for the box office of 'Drunken One'?"

"Expectations?" Wu Cheng paused, the corners of his lips curling up, and he smiled, "Of course, the more, the better!"

Upon hearing this, Sister Feifei couldn't help but secretly scold Wu Cheng as a slippery fellow, and then said, "I heard that when you were shooting this film, the outside world generally did not have high hopes. What do you think about that?"

Wu Cheng shrugged and spread his hands, smiling, "The outside world's evaluation is baseless, because they don't know what I'm shooting! To comment on a film, one cannot just follow the crowd; one must watch the film to know its merits and demerits!"

After mocking those who follow the crowd, he continued, "From a viewer's perspective, I think this film will be successful. However, I estimate that many people who are not convinced by me will say that my film lacks artistic value and depth... But it doesn't matter, it's hard to please everyone, let them say what they will!"

"It seems Director Wu is very confident!" Sister Feifei laughed.

"Confidence is the foundation of a man!" Wu Cheng laughed heartily.

"Then, can I ask the three ladies, what do you think of Director Wu's words? Do you think his confidence is genuine?"

Deng Lijun glanced at Zhao Yazhi and smiled, "Of course it's genuine. I've seen the film before, and I can't help but want to watch it multiple times."

Lin Qingxia also laughed, "I won't comment on the film; everyone will see it for themselves. As for him in daily life, his confidence is even stronger. To put it bluntly, it's completely narcissistic!"

Zhao Yazhi also laughed, "Fortunately, it's not arrogance, otherwise it would be a real problem!"

Sister Feifei looked at Zhao Yazhi and asked with a smile, "I have a question I want to ask, and it's also what the reporters here want to know. Aizhi, you live with Director Wu, and you should know him very well. What kind of person is Director Wu in your eyes?"

The reporters, upon hearing this, secretly grumbled in their hearts, this isn't what they wanted to ask! They wanted to ask, since you are living together, have you thought about when you will get married? But they didn't dare to be frivolous in front of Wu Cheng, fearing they would be mercilessly kicked out, so they let Sister Feifei take control of the event.

Zhao Yazhi glanced at Wu Cheng, her eyes smiling, and after a moment of contemplation, she said, "How to put it! In daily life, he can be a bit childish, sometimes making you laugh and cry. But sometimes he is very mature, and nothing is too difficult for him. But the best thing is his temper; at home, he has never been angry, and on the set, it's different..."

"So, does he have a bad temper on the set?"

The smart Zhao Yazhi, after a few sentences, redirected the topic to the film. "Indeed, it's a bit bad!" Zhao Yazhi smiled, and then glanced at Wu Cheng, revealing, "Everyone calls him the 'Set Tyrant' behind his back. But the funny thing is, many people still like being scolded by him, because those who are scolded by him will improve!"

"Does he scold you on the set?"

Zhao Yazhi nodded without hesitation, "Yes! At home, I'm his sister, so he doesn't dare to scold me! But on the set, I'm his employee, and if an employee does poorly, the boss will naturally scold them."

"Then, do you take revenge when you get home?"

"Sister Feifei, you're so dark! Hehe... But, I'll secretly tell you, yes!"

Zhao Yazhi's last playful remark made everyone present burst into laughter.

Wu Cheng, however, shrugged helplessly, thinking to himself: How could I bear to scold you!

"Then, how do you usually take revenge?"

Zhao Yazhi glanced at Wu Cheng and smiled, "At home, I usually cook for him, because I'm the older sister! But if I'm scolded, I say I'm tired and don't want to move! Then he will go and cook. You don't know, when he cooks, he covers his face completely... The first time I saw him cooking with his face covered, I was startled, thinking a thief had entered the kitchen! But he said it's to avoid being splashed by oil..."

"Cough, let's stop here!" Wu Cheng directly covered the microphone in front of Zhao Yazhi, grinning, "Let's not reveal such embarrassing things! Thank you all for your cooperation!"

However, everyone could see that Wu Cheng was not angry, but rather found it somewhat warm.

In fact, everyone felt that such a life was indeed full of fun.

Even Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia, upon hearing these words, felt a bit envious and jealous, thinking about when they could live a happy life with Wu Cheng.

As they walked to the theater, Hong Jinbao and Sheng Long, who were standing at the entrance, all sighed in relief when they saw Wu Cheng arrive. Wu Cheng patted Sheng Long's arm and smiled, "What's wrong? Nervous?"

Sheng Long awkwardly smiled, "No... a bit!"

Hong Jinbao laughed, "He's just worrying unnecessarily!"

Sheng Long awkwardly said, "Master, this is my first time!"

Wu Cheng laughed, "Don't worry! Regardless of how this film performs, 'Drunken Two' will still be shot, and you will still be the lead!" He paused and then added, "After this film is released, you can start preparing for the next one. The release date can be set before next year's summer season, to warm up for the summer. Next year, the number of our films will double!"

"A Cheng!" Sheng Long was moved, feeling that Wu Cheng was too good to him.

Wu Cheng, seeing his moved expression, smiled, "I have high hopes for your future. Even if you're not famous now, you will be famous in the future. Otherwise, how could I have the confidence to lead you all?"

"I will work hard!" Sheng Long clenched his fist and said seriously.

Wu Cheng laughed and scolded, "Stay away from nightclubs, and I'll be more at ease!"

Wu Cheng's words made everyone around him burst into laughter.

"What are you all laughing about? Can you share it with us?"

At this moment, Zhang Guorong accompanied Wu Shulan, and seeing them holding hands, Wu Cheng's lips curled up slightly, making Wu Shulan's face turn a bit red.

Sheng Long, looking at them, smiled with excitement, "You two, are you together?"

Zhang Guorong laughed heartily, "What? Are you envious and jealous?"

"Envy is definitely there, but jealousy, not really. But, congratulations!"

Zhang Guorong and Wu Shulan, upon hearing this, couldn't help but smile at each other. Then, Wu Shulan walked over to Wu Cheng and said, "Uncle, I want to talk to you about something!"

Wu Cheng nodded and led everyone into the theater, leaving it to Sheng Long and the others, "Brother Sanmao, help Long, I'll go in first!"

Hong Jinbao laughed, "Go ahead! I'll take care of it here!"

Seeing his junior achieve success, he, as the senior, felt proud and couldn't help but lend a hand!

Entering the theater, Wu Cheng greeted familiar faces and then walked with Wu Shulan to a quiet corner, smiling, "You and Young Master Rong, are you really together? So, did you confess to him, or did he confess to you?"

"Uncle, can you not be so nosy?" Wu Shulan pouted.

Wu Cheng shrugged and glanced at her, "Is this how you ask for help?"

"Alright, alright! Satisfy your curiosity..." Wu Shulan said helplessly, "Didn't you teach me to make him pretend to be my boyfriend? I did it, and my mother was satisfied, but my father wasn't! He thinks Tenzi is too handsome, and he doesn't feel secure, thinking Tenzi is dating me for my money!"

Wu Cheng smiled, "So, what does the old man think? And, are you and Young Master Rong just pretending, or is it real?"

Wu Shulan, upon hearing this, blushed, "He, he proposed to me!"

Wu Cheng, upon hearing this, his eyes widened, thinking to himself: Young Master Rong is indeed strong! That's his style!

"What's that look for! Didn't you guess it would be like this?"

"Guessing is one thing, but reality always changes!" Wu Cheng sighed and then laughed, "So, did you accept?"

"Not, not yet!"

"Why? Don't you like him very much?"

"But, but now, he seems, a bit, a bit stingy!" Wu Shulan said dejectedly.

Wu Cheng, upon hearing this, laughed lightly, "How so? Is he a hypocrite?"

"Not really!"
