Chapter 137: Really Promising
After filming "New Dragon Inn", Shen Lang had nothing to do.
Apart from rehearsing skits with Shen Teng and others, the rest of the time he either spends time with his grandfather and younger brother, or is busy... counting money.
That’s right, Shen Lang sent it.
The TV series "Drawing Sword" is a nationwide hit and its popularity remains unabated. Although several months have passed since its premiere, there are still endless memes and jokes on the Internet.
The most famous one is of course the "Italian Cannon" meme, which has been everywhere on the Internet with animated emoticons. Whenever you start chatting, the first thing that comes to your mind is the video of Li Youbing turning his head.
"Second Battalion Commander, where are your Italian guns?"
The copyright of "Drawing Sword" was bought by all local satellite TV stations for broadcasting. Even the Central Television Station slapped its thigh and asked why it did not premiere on its own Channel 8 at that time. In the end, it was given to Zhejiang Satellite TV.
The most exaggerated one is Sichuan Satellite TV. Since Sichuan friends in the province bought the copyright, they watch "Drawing Sword" every day when they turn on the TV.
At the beginning, everyone went to watch the movie a second or third time with the purpose of reliving the classics.
But in the end, it couldn't stand being broadcasted over and over again by their own TV station from day to night.
Now, some of our friends in Sichuan Province are calling for the Second Battalion Commander even when they sleep. They must be suffering from neurasthenia.
(It is no exaggeration to say that Sichuan Satellite TV has replayed “Drawing Sword” at least fifty times!)
In addition to the major satellite TV stations, there is also revenue from the Internet.
Who wouldn’t rush to buy the online broadcasting rights for such a classic anti-Japanese war film?
Of course, there are also some stubborn people. A certain video website did not purchase the broadcasting rights of "Drawing Sword".
As a result, after recharging their account, the members opened the website, typed in "Drawing Sword", and prepared to watch it.
Who knew that the play button...

Grass! ! !
In the past few months, the website's rating on the software platform has plummeted. How do netizens write the one-star bad reviews?
"You have the nerve to run a video website without "Drawing Sword"? You even have "Studying to Make China Strong" but you don't. Are you trying to cheat people out of money?"
"Don't buy a membership for this software, it's a huge pitfall, Li Yunlong doesn't even exist, and the Italian cannon can't even be pulled out, what the hell is going on?"
……
In the end, Shen Lang made a post-tax profit of 18 million through this investment.
When he took the money to the bank.
Every time Shen Lang came, his exclusive account manager had a polite yet distant expression on his face.
Unexpectedly, when Shen Lang slapped the 17 million card on his face, this guy's face suddenly became lively.
With this money, Shen Lang took a big step towards his life goal.
Sunshine, beach, fairyland... Hai Tian Sheng|Yan Da Yacht is not a dream...
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I will use the remaining money to buy some New Year goods first, and then give the rest to Shen Zhuangzhuang. After the Chinese New Year, it will be time to fulfill my promise.
Zhuangzhuang can't stay at home all the time, he also needs to go out to a special school.
When Shen Lang returned home again, it was already New Year's Eve.
As soon as they got home, Shen Zhuangzhuang hugged Shen Lang again, and the two brothers were very affectionate.
Shen Lang subconsciously looked at Wu Mei, fearing that she would scold Zhuangzhuang again.
But this time, Wu Mei just sat on the sofa and didn't say anything.
Shen Lang suddenly relaxed a lot.
Shen Lang was usually busy filming, and apart from occasionally talking to Wu Mei when he came to visit Shen Biao during breaks, they had no contact at all at other times, and were no better than strangers.
This time Wu Mei did not stop Zhuangzhuang from sticking to her. To be honest, Shen Lang was quite surprised.
"mom!"
Shen Lang pulled Zhuangzhuang to sit down on the sofa and called Wu Mei.
Wu Mei seemed a little hesitant, but finally nodded.
"I bought some New Year's goods and put them at the door!" Shen Lang said.
Wu Mei opened her mouth, and finally nodded and said, "You have to pay back the bank, why buy those things? There aren't many people eating at home."
Seeing that she was willing to talk, Shen Lang knew that she actually had no grudges in her heart, but the tense relationship over the years made it difficult for her to change her attitude towards him for the time being.
So Shen Lang didn't mind and continued with a smile: "I heard that all the relatives in my family are coming here to celebrate the New Year this year. I'm afraid that you will be tired from buying this and that, so I just bought some of what I think you may need!"
After saying that, he took out a bank card with 800,000 yuan in it from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"Mom, Zhuangzhuang needs someone to take care of us at home, and my dad needs someone to take care of him. Why don't you hire a nanny or a caregiver to come to our house? I've got some money for you, use it first, and we'll tell you if it's not enough!"
Wu Mei looked at the bank card on the table and quickly shook her head, "No, no, you still have to pay back the money now, and you don't have to worry about the family!"
Shen Lang said seriously: "You have worked too hard these years. I was wrong before. From now on, I will make sure that you, my father, and Zhuangzhuang can live a good life!"
Wu Mei looked at Shen Lang as if she had just met him for the first day, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
In the past, Shen Lang would definitely go home on New Year’s Eve.
However, every time he came back, he would come back with that woman, and would hurriedly say hello and leave.
In fact, their New Year greetings were fake, and their real purpose was to ask Shen Biao for money.
Of course, this is all based on various reasons and excuses.
Often after getting the money or achieving their goal, the two would leave without looking back, and would not show up again until the next time they came to ask for money, or they would have to go through someone Shen Biao knew.
But since Shen Lang's divorce, he seems to have changed completely.
Now he is acting outside, and every drama he stars in is a hit. Whenever he returns to the capital, he will come back to see them.
And every time he came back, not only did he not take a penny from home, he also brought back things with him.
Although most of those things were local specialties he bought outside while filming, they were not worth much money.
But Wu Mei could clearly feel that Shen Lang seemed to have really changed.
People say that marriage can change a person, but the divorce of my stepson is like turning him into a completely new person from head to toe.
I don’t know when it started, but Wu Mei seemed to no longer hate this stepson. Because there were few visitors to their house on weekdays, she sometimes even hoped that Shen Lang could come back to chat with Zhuangzhuang.
"Mom!" Shen Lang took the bank card from the table and handed it to Wu Mei, saying, "Don't save it. If you are going to find someone, find the best caregiver!"
Wu Mei smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it. Nurses are too expensive now. The kind that live in for 24 hours, the better ones start at 20,000. You should use the money to buy yourself some clothes. You don't have to worry about the family!"
Shen Lang smiled: "Here are 800,000 yuan, enough for you to find a caregiver and a nanny!"
"What? You, ah, I thought you were sensible, why don't you use all this money to pay back the bank? Take it, take it, the family doesn't need you to spend any money!"
Shen Lang looked at Wu Meihua's white temples, feeling heavy in his heart. He forced a smile and said, "I just paid back more than 10 million to the bank. This money is specially left for you two and Zhuangzhuang!"
"What? More than 10 million..." Wu Mei was shocked. People of her generation, even the leading actors, didn't know what more than 10 million meant!
It seems that my stepson has really made it!
