Don't call me Master, call me Director

Shirou scratched his cheek and replied, "But Shinji didn't remind us when we will arrive in Fuyuki City, even if we are afraid that the plane will be delayed..."

"Shirou Emiya, welcome."

Shirou hurriedly raised his head when he heard Arturia's greeting.

"It's Saber, you... poof!!!"

Seeing Arturia in the housemaid outfit in front of him, Shirou lost his way in the dimension.

Even Ilya's eyes lit up after seeing Arturia's outfit, and she flicked her ears excitedly like a cat.

"Okay... so amazing! Illya also wants to wear this beautiful dress!"

"No, no, Illya, you don't need it."

Shirou hurriedly pulled his sister away to prevent her from going astray.

"Shirou, Illya, please come in."

Artoria didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her, she invited the two guests into the house like a real maid.

"Okay, I know."

Because it was so shocking, Shirou even forgot to ask Arturia the reason for this outfit, and just followed behind obediently.

"Shirou Emiya, Illya Einzbern, please rest in the living room, both of you."

After bringing the person to the living room, Artoria didn't linger long, but walked directly into the kitchen.

Shirou scratched the door frame and glanced inside, and found that Arturia was stirring a pot with a spoon. Through the slightly pungent smell, Shirou found that it was the sauce of mapo tofu.

"Sakura, what the hell is going on?!"

The completely messed up Shirou went directly to the mistress of the Matou family.

"Shut up, senior. Now is the exciting time."

Sakura unceremoniously pulled Shirou aside, motioning him not to block the camera lens in her hand.

"This is an excellent material for extorting my brother's pocket money, please don't make trouble." Sakura warned in a very serious tone.

"What's all this mess?" Shirou was even more confused.

"Young man, you just need to wait quietly."

"Kirei, you're here too... Pfft!!! What's going on with you?!"

Seeing Kotomine Kirei who had already tied a white tablecloth by the dining table, Shirou sprayed it out for the second time today.

Kotomine Kirei, who was holding a spoon, replied, "I'm just receiving treatment."

"Hey, you're drooling."

Shirou no longer knew where to spit out the gutter.

Artoria, who was continuing to make mapo tofu in the kitchen, turned around and complained.

"Really, what did you say "eat mapo tofu and May disease will be cured", Yanfeng, don't you eat this every day? Do you really have May disease?"

Having said that, Artoria gave Kotomine Kirei a white look.

"The ingredients are the same as ordinary mapo tofu except for the excessive amount of chili... Ahem, it's really choking."

"This...this...it hurts...my stomach hurts so much, and so does my chest, and I don't have much strength in my limbs."

Kotomine Kirei suddenly covered his stomach, pretending to be sick in a calm tone.

【This guy... has already done anything to eat mapo tofu. 】

Seeing this scene, Shirou could only smile awkwardly but politely.

"I don't know whether this guy wants to eat mapo tofu, or wants to see others make mapo tofu that he doesn't like. His switch has been completely turned on, does Matou Shinji know what he is doing? ?”

Shirou turned his head and saw Archer leaning against the wall, sighing in a high-pitched tone.

"Aren't you guys going to explain it?" Shirou read the other party's state of mind when watching the play from Red A's playful eyes.

Red A said with a dark smile: "Why do you say such an interesting thing?"

"...how many of you..."

Shirou sighed with his hands on his forehead, he would never admit that he was already looking forward to the scene when Shinji came home, never!

In the kitchen, Sakura continued to videotape Artoria while instructing her to make moves.

"Quick! Say to the camera like a newlywed wife to invite brother to dinner!"

"Sakura, what's the point of this?"

Artoria looked at him suspiciously.

Sakura continued her nonsense: "Oh, my brother has been outside for nearly half a month, Wu Yue's illness must have been very serious, and he needs strong medicine to be cured!"

"I...I know..."

Artoria took a deep breath. She borrowed from Rin the look of the heroine in Doujou manga, covered her face with a spoon, and pretended to be shy.

"Dinner is about to start, honey..."

"awesome!!"

Sakura waved her fist excitedly and laughed triumphantly.

"With this big brother, I will definitely be full of joy!!"

"Hey, Sakura. Are you recording your own voice like this?"

It's a pity that Sakura can't listen to Artoria's reminder anymore, she's already immersed in her own world.

"What should I use next? A sexy swimsuit? But Saber's figure is not good...how about a gorgeous dress...no no no...that kind of thing I'm afraid I can't impress my brother..."

Facing Sakura who was talking to herself extremely fast, Artoria sighed helplessly.

Only Kotomine Kirei was still sitting at the dining table, silently wiping the drool from the corners of his mouth with his hands.

"Ma Po Tofu...isn't it good yet?"

Just when Matou's kitchen was gradually developing in an uncontrollable direction, the doorbell finally rang.

"I am back."

Shinji's voice came into the room through the intercom.

"Master!!"

【Oops!I forgot the most important object of treatment! 】

Arturia's hair stood on end in an instant, she casually put the mapo tofu on the table, and then ran towards the door.

[Master, you must be safe and sound!Wait for me, I will definitely restore your health! 】

At the moment when she rushed to the gate, Artoria put her hands on her knees and faced Shinji outside the door, showing a sweet smile that Sakura had taught countless times.

"Master! Welcome back!"

Shinji standing at the door was also taken aback by Artoria's maid outfit.

But compared to Shirou, the well-informed Shinji quickly calmed down, and waved to Artoria in a spirited greeting.

"Artoria, long time no see. Miss me?"

Because he made a lot of money in Cannes this time, Master Shen was in a very good mood.

Seeing Shen Er so energetic, Arturia was greatly relieved

"Great, it seems that Master, your illness in May has been cured." Arturia smiled and patted her chest, "Is it really great that you don't need to exhaust the magic circuit?"

Second Lord Shen had a black question mark on his face: "The circuit is exhausted? Saber, why are you cursing me? Do you hate your Master so much?"

"Huh? Huh??"

The dumb hair on Arturia's head shook twice.

The cute look of the Knight King made Shen Er frowned, and found something was wrong.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

So Artoria hurriedly explained the horror of [Mayatsuki Sickness] to Shinji.

Then, Shen Er denied it on the spot.

"May's disease is not the kind of disease you are worried about, Arturia!" Shen Er smiled and waved his hands, "And how can a hard-working person like me get May's disease? That brat Ilya almost."

"..."

Seeing that Arturia was blushing and stuck in embarrassment, Shinji quickly stopped laughing.

"Well, that's not what Artoria meant... Uh, what are you doing?"

Artoria, who was trembling all over, silently closed the door again, blocking Shinji outside.

"Sorry, Master. You may have to be late to enter the house."

Arturia turned her head and showed Shinji a non-smiling smile, then she walked into the Matou mansion with a golden Excalibur in one hand.

On that day, a huge beam of light rose from the residential area of ​​Fuyuki City.

According to subsequent investigations, the explosion was caused by a gas explosion.

Chapter 41 Dongbao Cinema Line: Really Smells! !

The 56th Cannes Film Festival has come to a successful conclusion, and Shinji has also returned to Japan, but the storm that FSN has blown in Europe and the United States has just begun

Although FSN's professional reputation has almost collapsed, the movie-watching boom it triggered has even overshadowed those award-winning films during the film festival.

Looking back at this film festival in a few years, people may not remember which film won the Palme d'Or, and they may not remember who won the best actor and best actress, but the debut of FSN will be countless people A topic of eternal relish.

As a qualified entertainment manager, Cloris is a leader in the industry, if not as good as Shinji in publicity.

With the film's screening in Cannes already gaining a good reputation from the audience, Cloris appointed a rather aggressive publicity plan.

This film will be released in the major film markets of Europe and the United States in early June, and it will be screened on a large scale instead of on demand.

Cloris is well aware of the principle of striking while the iron is hot, and is going to present this gift to European and American audiences when they are most curious about FSN.

In order to cooperate with the release plan of Times Group, Shen Er has not been idle after returning to Japan.

With several main actors of FSN, he frequently participates in the production of various promotional materials, from shooting movie posters to recording movie interviews, everything that one expects to find, and cheers for the upcoming global screening of FSN.

While Times Group is promoting FSN in Europe and the United States in full swing, the form of movies in Japan is also very good.

Because the film's box office in Japan continued to rise steadily, even Toho Cinemas, which had previously refused to show FSN, "surrendered" and began to show Fate in its theaters.

It’s not that Dongbao Cinemas staged a show of “Wang Jingze”, but the executive manager of Dongbao Cinemas had no choice but to compromise in the face of FSN’s drool-worthy box office and the “turbulent public opinion” of his staff. .

From the perspective of the employees of the Dongbao cinema department, why should your publicity department lick the stinky feet of film critics and use the performance of our theater department to pay for it?

Could it be that FSN made less money in sales, will your publicity department pay for it?

"The red deer of the publicity department! How can you run a movie theater well with you insects?!"

The executive manager of Toho Cinemas is well aware of the Japanese film market, and the total annual box office in Japan has long since had no room for growth.

It can be said that every movie released in Japan is grabbing the box office of other movies.

Don't look at movies in Japan that break [-] billion at the box office every year, but when it comes to the box office of each movie, it is definitely serious.

Therefore, for movie theaters, every movie with the potential to exceed [-] billion box office should not be missed.

It's just that the theater department's release of FSN is tantamount to slapping the publicity department in the face.

They swore to the film critics that "Dongbao Company just can't make a box office, even if it goes bankrupt, it won't release that rubbish movie." As a result, the theater department surrendered before holding on for a month. good point.

However, when the executive manager of the publicity department approached the executive manager of the theater department and asked the other party to release the movie as soon as possible, he got a negative answer.

The theater manager spread his hands and said in a very helpless tone: "Sorry, you have your OKR, and I have my KPI. Anyway, it is not an indicator of my theater to have a good relationship with film critics. Film critics turned the table and shut me down." Shit."

Of course, for the sake of everyone being colleagues, the theater didn't say they were dead.

"If you can convince the board of directors to lower our targets for this year, then everything is negotiable. Not to mention the release of FSN, it is not a problem to play the movie backwards."

And then...then there was no more then.

The Propaganda and Development Department went to the board of directors to make such an outrageous request when they were full. You must know that the theater chain is the biggest source of income for the entire company of Dongbao.

Don't think that I am at the same level as the theater veteran in front of me, but if the theater department is the son of the board of directors, then my publicity department is not even an illegitimate son.
