Chapter 273: Playing a Show
The elevator door slowly opened.

After the man in front walked out, Li Luo, wearing a fisherman's hat, followed.

As usual, Zhang Long always waits at the door early.

But this guy was looking around.

Still looking toward the elevator.

"Is there a beautiful woman?"

Li Luo stopped and looked back as the other person did.

"Um???"

Zhang Long couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at the guy standing next to him, who was wearing a sports suit, unshaven beard and a fisherman's hat. "Fuck, how did you become like this?"

Li Luo is usually well-dressed and extremely energetic.

But now he looks sloppy.

Not to mention the beard.

So much so that he couldn't recognize it just now.

"busy."

Li Luo tightened his backpack and replied casually.

Now that I don't have to film, I stay at home every day. There's no need to be so busy and tidy. Sometimes we have to relax and not keep ourselves on edge all the time.

"Let's go."

Bumping fists with him, Zhang Long took the lead and moved forward.

Compared to Li Luo's current appearance, he was actually in high spirits.

The company's project is a big hit, which is a great thing for all employees. There will be no shortage of bonuses and so on. Walking along the way, I see that everyone seems very motivated.

"Mr. Wu."

Pushing open the office door, Zhang Long greeted.

"Haha."

Laughter starts before anyone shows up.

The moment he saw Li Luo, Wu Dun's laughter stopped abruptly: "You guy, it seems that you have had a good rest during this period."

"Hello Angkor."

Li Luo greeted him and sat down on the sofa.

Everyone is so familiar with each other.

There is no need to be polite about some small things.

Wu Dun handed the golf club to the female secretary and patted her butt.

He also strode to the reception area.

The latter touched his butt and stomped his feet lightly.

The breast flesh on her chest began to tremble.

This big brother's preferences remain the same as before. Li Luo can't even remember how many female secretaries he has changed.

"Just in time."

Wu Dun pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and said urgently, "Even if you didn't call me, I was going to ask you to come. The distribution of SPL in Sakura has been agreed."

"In about ten days, can you spare some time to go to Sakura to help promote it?"

"Cherry blossoms?"

Li Luo thought of the junior high school girl who would be rewarded with attribute points if she kissed him.

"Yes."

Wu Dun motioned to the female secretary to make tea, nodded and said, "The market for action movies is good there. As for the labor fee, you don't have to worry about it. You just need to spare two days."

"Both Hong Yubao and Wu Jing agreed."

"I'm OK."

Li Luo interrupted him bluntly.

There was no doubt about this matter. Not only could he take the opportunity to visit his junior sister, but he could also expand his influence in Asia.

When it comes to movies, Sakura is definitely a big box office hit overseas.

If we can conquer it.

Needless to say, there are benefits for yourself later on.

Even some TV dramas can be sold at high prices in the Land of Sakura. Zhang Zhongzhong is one of the experts in this field. He used the drama "SPL" to increase his fame, and then slowly reap the profits from the little Sakura. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

As for the labor fee, he was too lazy to refuse.

The money that should be collected must be collected.

Besides, it's only two or three hundred thousand at most. There's no need to push and shove each other here.

"That's good."

Wu Dun nodded with satisfaction, and then asked in return: "I wonder why you came here today?"

Li Luo didn't say anything.

Just looked at the secretary.

"Get out!"

Wu Dun understood instantly.

"Oh~"

The busty secretary put down the cup and walked out of the office with her high heels clicking. The two men sitting on the sofa followed her swaying skirt and did not look away until the door closed.

"Haha."

Li Luo chuckled.

"You boy."

Wu Dun patted his thigh and laughed heartily: "Her butt is pretty good, right? Do you want me to give you her phone number so that she won't try to seduce me every day? She almost stuck it out just now."

"Your health is more important, you should switch to a male secretary!"

Shaking his head, Li Luo unzipped his backpack and said, "I came here to discuss serious matters with you this time."

Under Wu Dun's gaze.

He took out the thick script and storyboards.

only.

There was no rush to hand it over.

"It's just the two of us now."

Gently stroking the cover of the script, Li Luo looked at Wu Dun with emotion: "I might as well say some things directly. In fact, Brother Wu Dun, I have always kept in mind your help to me."

Upon hearing this, Wu Dun also straightened his sitting posture.

It's true that he is a man of the world, and he is always busy with wine and women.

But under the guidance of that big brother, I have paid more attention to reading and cultivating my spirit in recent years.

The etiquette on the scene is still very particular.

"If there is no Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber."

Patting the script cover, Li Luo chuckled and shook his head: "Maybe my current development will be different. It can be said that Brother Wu Dun, you have made my path much smoother."

"I know you don't think highly of this new movie."

“This is normal.”

Raising his hand to stop Wu Dun from explaining, he smiled and nodded, "Actually, many people are not optimistic. I can totally understand that."

“But I am very confident.”

Li Luo handed the script and storyboard forward with both hands, and said seriously: "This is what I use to prove my confidence. Just like I said before, let Brother Wu Dun take a look at it as soon as possible."

“It’s not about attracting any investment.”

"I can come up with 10 or 20 million myself. Previously, Mr. Yu from Bernardo also approached me and said he wanted to join us."

“So it’s not a difficult thing for me to prepare.”

"I came here today just to say this."

After thinking for a while, he said in a straightforward tone: "As long as Brother Wu Dun thinks it's appropriate for this game I organized, I will definitely give you a share!"

What happened before made Li Luo understand a truth.

We can't always be driven by interests.

No matter whether the other party is optimistic or not, and no matter whether this movie will make a lot of money.

No matter how Wu Dun weighed the pros and cons, at least he had to express his feelings. It was also a way to express gratitude to the other party. This was the way to go no matter whether he was doing things or being a person.

"it is good!"

Wu Dun nodded slowly, and took the script with both hands solemnly: "A Luo, you are so thoughtful, I will take a look now."

It must be said that he was moved by this statement.

I didn't expect that Li Luo's style of doing things is actually quite like that of a gangster.

Never mind what you think.

Anyway, when I do something, I always think of leaving a copy for you.

Who doesn't like people who are grateful for favors? Although it may make you lose money, it is obvious that the other party is prepared to gamble with all his belongings, so he will definitely bear greater risks.

Driven by the sense of brotherhood, he looked at the two words on the cover of the script.

anger.

Obviously handwritten.

It looks like this is the working title for the film.

Following his businessman's instinct, Wu Dun opened the script with some resistance.

It is precisely because he has been immersed in this industry for many years that he knows the risks involved. With new editors, new directors and young actors who have just successfully made a movie, the feeling of being out of control is simply overwhelming.

Young actors who have just had a successful movie are not an advantageous option here.

It makes the risk even greater!

After tasting the thrill of power for the first time, the desire for control will become extremely strong. The rapidly expanding self-confidence will make it impossible for people to listen to any opinions and tend to act arbitrarily in doing things.

Wu Dun has experienced all of these.

These are also the reasons why he is not optimistic about this project.

Calm your mind.

He flipped through the pages of the script, which were all handwritten and stained with coffee in many places.

It can be seen that the author of the script poured a lot of effort into it.

The content is also good.

Experienced film and television professionals can easily tell the maturity of a script.

It’s hard to say how good the story is.

But it’s definitely not a piece of shit.

Turning over the storyboard again, page by page, frame by frame, the story in the script came to life before his eyes. Wu Dun looked in surprise at Li Luo, who was drinking tea leisurely.

It is not easy to achieve this level, you must work very hard.

I didn't expect that apart from acting.

This guy has talent in this area.

Actually it's here.

Li Luo only restored 20% to 30% of the storyboard provided by the system.

The system couldn't be more detailed.

It's like presenting the movie in the form of a comic book.

Out of caution or confidentiality, he chose to hide a considerable amount of key information, including the script. No matter how good the relationship was, he could not reveal all his cards to others.

As the aroma of tea wafted through the air, Wu Dun read through the entire script and storyboards.

Then slowly closed it.

“Good story.”

He patted it gently, shook his head and said, "Compared to you, my son is like a piece of shit. I thought you only had the general idea of ​​the story, but I didn't expect you to come up with such a mature script."

With this description, Li Luo didn't know how to respond.

All I can do is pour tea for the other person.

"To be honest, I am quite optimistic about your anger."

Wu Dun looked at Li Luo, tapping the script rhythmically with his fingers: "I am also very happy that you can think of Brother Wu, but I have a suggestion, can we find a professional director?"

"Don't worry, I can contact a very good action film director in Hong Kong."

"Your efforts will not be wasted!"

People are optimistic.

The story is also good.

But this person tells this story and he still doesn't think it is a good one.

"No."

Li Luo flatly refused, his tone was unusually firm: "I must be the director, and the story must be presented in my way, so that I can ensure that what is filmed is what I want."

Although others may think he is too arrogant and conceited.

But this is the only way.

He can ensure the film's authenticity.

The more powerful the action film director is, the more Li Luo will refuse. Those people all have their own artistic pursuits and creative styles, and who knows what their work will be changed into.

He didn't want to start a war of words with the director on the set. It would be a waste of time.

Hearing what Li Luo said.

Wu Dun completely gave up the idea of ​​investing.

The screenwriter, director and leading actor were all newcomers, and the risk was extremely great. Although I wanted to agree to it out of loyalty, my businessman instinct suppressed the impulse.

"I'll tell you the truth."

Wu Dun patted the script and shook his head slightly, saying, "During this period, I have invested not only in Sha Po Lang, but also in several TV series such as The Princess Weiyoung and Young Jiaqing."

“The financial pressure is a bit great now.”

"otherwise."

At this point, he paused.

Wu Dun is no longer as brave and enterprising as Yu Dong, and now he just wants to be stable.

Rather than taking a big risk.

It would be better to just focus on filming your own costume drama.

If he was willing to change to a famous director, he would also take a gamble. After all, with the foundation of "SPL", Li Luo's action movie had a very high chance of being a hit.

But everything now indicates high risk.

A script is a script.

It’s a different matter from a finished film.

Even a famous director can ruin a good film.

"I can understand."

Li Luo took the opportunity to pick up the other party's words and raised his teacup to indicate, "Brother Wu, you don't need to explain so much. I also work for a company. It is indeed easy to be stretched when there are too many projects. The Sha Po Lang project hasn't paid you back yet, right?"

"That's not."

Wu Dun put down the script and changed the subject: "The fastest is three months, and normally it takes five or six months. It would be good if we can get the money back before the end of this year."

From cinemas to theater chains, and then to the layers of review and distribution above.

Box office success.

It takes a long process.

The same is true for TV dramas. It is difficult to survive in this industry without strong financial strength.

So the excuse Wu Dun found was a bit blunt!
That makes sense.

Li Luo saw through it but didn't point it out, even though the business cooperation could not be successful.

Our friendship is still there.

Wu Dun naturally understood this truth, and while drinking tea and chatting, in order to ease the awkwardness that did not exist or not, he also took the initiative to share some of his experiences in film and television production, to which Li Luo nodded repeatedly.

After finishing a pot of tea, Li Luo stood up and said goodbye.

"listen."

Wu Dun held his hand and said earnestly: "Although we were unable to work together, Brother Wu understands your intentions. Since you have made up your mind, you might as well do your best."

"What if I encountered a large group of enemies like when I was young?"

"no way."

"You can only cut a bloody path with a knife."

"Brother Wu is under great pressure to collect payments, and secondly, he is indeed getting older and lacks the courage to move forward."

"Shame on me, shame on me."

Wu Dun sighed softly, and he held Li Luo's hand tightly again: "But I still have experience. If you encounter any difficulties or don't understand something, you can call Wu Ge at any time, or Zhang Long will do!"

“Even if you fail, don’t lose heart.”

"Anyway, you have a role to play here!"

Try to treat sincerity with sincerity.

When people in the underworld do things, they cannot be too sloppy.

"Thank you Angkor."

Throwing the backpack over his body, Li Luo gave him a big hug.

He turned around and left very decisively.

In less than a minute, the office door was opened again, and Zhang Long walked in with great interest: "Boss, how is it? I see Li Luo is in a good mood. Do you want to make a movie with him?"

The aroma of tea wafted through the office, and Wu Dun sat on the single sofa, smoking a cigar quietly.

The smoke filled his eyes.

The silent atmosphere made Zhang Long stop.

"Aaron, sit down."

Wu Dun gestured to the side.

"Hey."

Zhang Long sat down quickly.

"us."

Wu Dun looked at Zhang Long, who had a lot of flesh on his thighs, and asked softly, "Are you getting old?"

I was about to deny it.

You can see the boss's slightly cloudy eyes.

Zhang Long could only nod silently.

"How many could you fight back then?"

Taking a puff of his cigar, Wu Dun's eyes flashed with reminiscence: "In that alley in Xinyi District, you were alone with a machete, and you hacked down a bunch of people, even the blade was chipped."

"Help us withstand the pressure, so that we can have time to eliminate that gang leader."

At this moment, Zhang Long, who looked gentle and polite, smiled awkwardly, and his fierce look of the past could no longer be seen.

I probably have guessed the answer to my question.

Some regrets.

But he didn't say anything.

As always, I listened to the boss speaking silently.

"After we're done, let's take a shower together."

"The blood almost dyed the bathtub red. I remember you were holding three girls at the time. One of the girls from Tainan had a bigger penis on one side and a smaller one on the other."

"Dry!"

“It seems I have three too.”

"It was such a good time, as if I had endless energy."

After leaving the building, Li Luo grabbed the backpack on his shoulders, squinted at the sun in the sky, and strode towards where he parked his car.

He did not feel lost, but became even more motivated.

Even if I have to sell everything I have.

We also need to get this anger out.

In fact, Xu Qing also hinted that she had some spare money, and if Li Luo wanted it, he could use it first.

But he rejected it.

If you can't make a guaranteed profit, you can't bring the other party along.

In case of losing money.

Even if Xu Qing didn't say anything, I would still feel bad.

Since Wu Dun didn't plan to invest, he was too lazy to look for anyone else, so he just worked with Yu Dong. The size of Berna Company was enough to provide protection for the film.

The other party's behavior is purely investment.

Accept both win and loss.

When Li Luo spends money, he will naturally not show mercy.

"Bell~~~"

Just got in the car.

The phone rang.

Looking at the phone number, Li Luo raised his eyebrows.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

"Brother Yu."

"I'm free. I was just looking for you."

"Okay, I'll be there in a minute."

After hanging up the phone, Li Luo stepped on the accelerator hard and the car roared towards the suburbs.

More than half an hour later.

He switched to a golf cart.

Driving slowly and leisurely on the narrow driveway, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, all you can see are lush lawns, undulating low greens, and sparkling ponds.

Occasionally, the sound of one or two clubs swinging could be heard, but was blown away by the autumn wind.

Looking at the few people standing on the lawn in front.

Li Luo slowed down the car.

"Feel sorry."

Pulling over and stepping on the brake, he walked into the grass and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting!"

"Why are you dressed like this?"

Yu Dong took off his cap and fanned himself, then held his hand: "Where are the golf clubs? Why did you bring a backpack? I wanted to play a good nine holes with you!"

Golf, to put it simply, is a game of hitting the ball into a hole.

Every hole.

The terrains are all different.

The undulations of the terrain, the height of the grass, the wind direction of the day, etc. are all factors that need to be measured in order to play golf well. It is still relatively difficult to play well after playing nine holes.

It was gone in two or three hours!
Despite this, many people still flock to it.

Not to mention now, even in the future it will be a relatively high-end form of sport.

You can't have fun if you don't have money or time.

First of all, you have to have time. Secondly, let alone the equipment, even the membership can block the entry qualifications of a considerable number of people. Most of those who can come in to play have a wealthy fortune and can enjoy the blue sky and grass in peace and quiet.

Whether it is for physical exercise or interpersonal communication, it is a good choice.

There was nothing wrong with Li Luo's sportswear, except that he only brought a backpack and no caddy with him.

This made Yu Dong feel a little strange.

"In a hurry."

Li Luo let go of his hand and reached out to the woman next to him: "Hello, Senior Sister Jin, I didn't expect to see you here."

Standing next to Yu Dong.

It was Chen Zihan’s classmate and his senior schoolmate Jin Qiao.

The other person was dressed in golf attire.

The white T-shirt, white skirt, and straight and slender legs still look quite amazing.

"Hello, junior."

Jin Qiao smiled and held his hand, shaking it gently: "I was the one who asked Yu Dong to call you over. I just heard him say that you were free during this period, so I thought of asking you to come out and play ball."

"Senior is thoughtful."

Li Luo chuckled and let go of his hand.

Ever since they last parted at Jiang Wen's house, the two of them had only sent each other casual blessing text messages during the New Year and other holidays.

But it does not affect the enthusiasm at all.

A social person!

Some things don't have to be taken too seriously.

"What have you been busy with lately?"

Yu Dong held the golf club with both hands and poked gently: "It seems that you just took on a sequel to Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties. The ratings of that TV series are good. Many people should be looking forward to the sequel."

"Indeed."

Li Luo squinted his eyes, nodded and replied: "It's called The Legend of Xue Rengui, and I play Xue Rengui in it."

"cough~"

Before he could continue, Jin Qiao cleared her throat and said bluntly, "I won't beat around the bush with you, Senior Sister. I have my eyes on a role in the film, but it's very popular."

"It will start in just over a month."

"You have a good relationship with the investors, can you lend a hand?"

Yu Dong next to her looked a little embarrassed. He had wanted to play a few strokes before speaking, but he didn't expect her to be so impatient.

However, a look of surprise flashed across Li Luo's eyes.

But he reacted quickly.

It is estimated that Li Silin is still trying to squeeze benefits and force the other party's agency to make more concessions.

Not bad now.

You can also do a favor yourself.

"What are you looking at~"

Jin Qiao's movements, expressions, and tone all had a bit of a coquettish tone. She stamped her feet at Yu Dong and said, "It's not like we just met, why are you beating around the bush? We're all family."

"Is such that."

Yu Dong shook his head helplessly and looked at Li Luo with a smile: "Actually, your sister Jin really wants to act with you, I wonder if it's convenient?"

"I'll make a call."

Under Jin Qiao's delighted gaze, Li Luo took out his Nokia.

He didn't avoid the two of them either.

Dial Li Silin’s phone number directly.

"Hey."

A slightly tired voice came from the other side.

"Brother Li."

He smiled at Jin Qiao and put the phone close to his ear: "What are you busy with recently?"

"What are you busy with?"

Li Silin yawned and said vaguely, "I'm still preparing for the crew. Damn it, I'm drunk every day and my head is dizzy. Go away. I'm on the phone, why are you being so naughty!"

With just this one sentence, Li Luo could instantly think of the other party's situation.

Let's talk about this guy.

I guess he has some social background like Wu Dun.

When Feizai Cong ran away, a few phone calls were enough to force the people from Xinghui to come over overnight to mediate and apologize.

Not only does he have a straightforward temper, he also likes to play lavishly.

"That's it!"

Li Luo laughed and grabbed his Nokia and said, "I'm playing golf. The weather in Beijing is good, with rare blue sky and white clouds, and there is an extremely beautiful woman beside me."

Jin Qiao next to her was immediately delighted.

"Did you call here just to show off?"

Li Silin's temples suddenly bulged when he thought about how busy he was.

Just play.

He even called to show off.

This is human stuff!
"Hahaha."

Li Luo didn't care what he was saying at all, and continued to talk to himself: "You should know this beautiful lady, she is my senior sister Jin Qiao, she played the Peacock Princess in Journey to the West."

"I went to ask you to plead for me?"

Li Silin reacted very quickly and understood it instantly.

“Yes, yes.”

Li Luo nodded and smiled at Yu Dong again.

"understood."

Li Silin also chuckled, rubbing the Lei Zi beside him and said, "I've almost finished grinding here, and I'm just about to quit while I'm ahead. Just say that I'll give you an answer the day after tomorrow. It's her!"

"Yes, the relationship is quite good."

Li Luo continued to talk to himself and replied with a smile: "Can you consider it?"

"I don't want to waste my time talking to you. Just go and act on your own."

Throwing the phone aside, Li Silin jumped on his horse.

"Ah."

"Ok."

"Then I understand. Thank you, Brother Li."

Listening to the moans from the other end, Li Luo hung up the phone with a slight twitch in his eyes.

This guy really doesn't avoid suspicion.

"How about it?"

Jin Qiao couldn't wait.

"Ah."

Li Luo put away his phone, smiled and held out his hand: "Please give me more guidance in the next few months, senior sister!"

After a low cry of joy.

Jin Qiao rushed over.

She actually has no shortage of acting opportunities, but it is great to be able to play a major role in a popular drama.

This is very rare.

Naturally, she was grateful for the handsome junior's prompt help.

"Sorry~"

Li Luo made lip movements to Yu Dong.

The latter's face turned slightly red, and he immediately acted as if it was none of his business.

Get a definite answer.

After giving Li Luo a hug, Jin Qiao immediately and enthusiastically called Yu Dong's caddy over and personally helped Li Luo choose a suitable golf club.

Li Luo gladly accepted the overture from Berna's future boss lady.

But he is in no hurry to play.

Instead, he threw the backpack to Yu Dong, who had a smile on his face.

"what is this?"

Yu Dong hurriedly took the heavy bag and weighed it in confusion.

"You'll know when you open it and take a look."

The club whizzed through the air. After Li Luo tried the feel of the ball, he smiled and nodded to Jin Qiao, "Please, senior sister. Let me play a few rounds with you."

Regardless of Yu Dong opening his backpack, the two of them walked forward together.

Looking at the script and storyboard in my hands.

Yu Dong immediately became interested.

He felt that the story Li Luo told last time had great selling points, and his anticipation for it was no less than that of other projects he was currently investing in. Now that he could get a glimpse of the whole picture, he naturally raced against time.

Following the two people who kept swinging forward, Yu Dong strolled on the grass and read the script.

His success is not without reason.

Focus.

It is one of them.

The handwritten text and carefully drawn storyboards continued to evolve into a vivid story in his mind.

When I saw the little girl and the protagonist hugging each other at the end.

He even let out a breath softly.

Holding the script and storyboard tightly in his hands, Yu Dong looked at the guy in front of him who was swinging the club hard. The white ball drew a perfect arc and fell into the grass, bouncing and stopping a few meters away from the hole.

Jin Qiao couldn't help but clap her hands and shouted "good shot".

The image of Li Luo standing with a pole.

Showing majestic and imposing manner.

Yu Dong patted the script in his hand and felt very satisfied.

Among the projects he invested in, Li Luo had the least experience, but he was the most fully prepared. Other projects did not have such storyboards for him to see.

It is better to describe the story in this intuitive way than to describe it in a flowery way.

With this, you can also feel the other person's efforts most sincerely.

Every drop of sweat is above.

Carefully putting the things into the backpack, Yu Dong walked quickly forward. Noticing his actions out of the corner of his eye, Li Luo also slowed down his pace, letting Jin Qiao walk forward alone.

“I love your story.”

Handing the backpack back, Yu Dong praised him generously: "I also like your attitude towards doing things. This proves that I was right about you."

"Thank you, Brother Yu."

Li Luo took the backpack and thanked him with a smile.

"I'll give you a definite answer."

Patting him on the back, Yu Dong looked at the golf ball next to the hole in the distance and said, "If there are no other investors, I will make up for your funding gap."

"If there are other investors, you should also leave me more shares."

"Don't forget that I am your senior."

"Then you must be prepared to bleed profusely!"

Li Luo weighed the club in his hand and swung it casually in the air.

"The more, the merrier."

Yu Dong spread his hands and said nonchalantly: "If you have the guts, let me spend 30 million, and I will take over for you."

Unless it's a luxurious cast, there's actually a limit to the production budget.

Li Luo would not let him take the lion's share either.

That's equivalent to doing work for the other person, and that's a stupid thing that shouldn't be done.

But nevertheless.

It didn't affect him at all as he and Yu Dong looked at each other and they both laughed out loud.

The club was swung out one after another, breaking up the grass clippings, and the golf balls kept flying in various shapes. Li Luo strolled in the grass, and he spent ten days like this.

The trip to the Land of Cherry Blossoms ended hastily.

Liu Qianqian was in a foreign country and Liu Xiaoli was with her almost all the time, so she really had no way of sneaking out.

Li Luo could only board the return flight with a trace of regret.

And his return destination.

But it is Yangcheng.

In October, Xu Bo officially left Wangyi Company.

He started his own entrepreneurial journey.

However, due to the non-compete clause, he could only lie dormant for the next six months.

With the temptation of equity incentives and Xu Bo's description of a bright future, he poached more than a dozen programmers and planners from the Fantasy Westward Journey team, and six of them followed him and left.

Those behind will leave one after another.

These dozen people formed the basic team of the game company.

Xu Bo suggested introducing the core members to each other, but Li Luo rejected it outright. He made it clear that he would stay behind the scenes. All this was to help him establish prestige.

Just a few simple words moved the guy so much that he almost cried again.

Comfort Xu Bo's anxious mood.

Li Luocai returned to the capital.

The next step is to study the script and prepare for the new play.

When Fan Xiaopang was busy filming The Battle of Mo, 2005 officially entered winter.

When the Legend of Xue Rengui was about to officially join the crew.

Li Luo brought Wang Ou with him ahead of time.

Fly to the mountain city.

Four people, dressed warmly, walked out of Jiangbei Airport.

After Li Luo made a phone call.

A van was approaching quickly from not far away.

He was stunned.

"Get in the car!"

Lin Yue smiled and narrowed her eyes. She patted the steering wheel and said, "What are you all doing standing there like an idiot?"

After The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.

Li Luo had never experienced such a bad airport pick-up treatment.

But thinking that he was spending his own money, he immediately opened the car door and got in without any hesitation.

Not many suitcases.

I'll stay for two days and then leave.

Only Wang Ou and her assistant brought some extra luggage.

The ones that are left.

They were all randomly shipped to Hengdian by Bian Xiaoxiao.

The purpose of this trip is to take a look at the crew's preparations, and then we will hold a start-up ceremony for everyone tomorrow.

The matter is settled.

"Director Ning is busy."

Lin Yue skillfully shifted the gears and stepped on the accelerator: "I have to be the one to pick you up. Everything is ready now. According to his wishes, no reporters will be invited to tomorrow's opening ceremony."

"I think that's fine too. We need to spend our money wisely now."

Many crews cannot afford large-scale publicity when they start filming. The costs for transportation, personnel, venues, banquets, etc., add up to a considerable amount.

These have to be paid from the production costs.

If it wasn't for the sake of reassuring the actors, Ning Hao wouldn't even want to hold the opening ceremony.

Just to save money.

Listening to Lin Yue's words, Li Luo looked out the window.

This is a city with a strong underworld atmosphere.

Modern urban skyscrapers and low, dilapidated buildings are mixed together, forming this magical city where even the air seems to be filled with the aroma of spicy hot pot.

When the van was turned so fast that it couldn't tell east from west, west from east, it finally slowed down.

"Reaching soon."

Lin Yue stepped on the brakes again and looked at Li Luo in the rearview mirror: "This is the YZ District, near Chaotianmen. Knowing that we are here to film, the hotel owner gave us a lot of discounts."

"And one more thing."

"You said."

Li Luo took off his sunglasses.

"The boss likes to watch The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber."

Lin Yue showed her white teeth, her eyes curved into crescents: "I especially like your Zhang Wuji. If I can take a photo with you and give us some money, I have already agreed!"

"Besides, the room you're staying in is free."

Smiling, Li Luo made an OK gesture.

Although the funding is one million more than before.

But it's still not enough.

Not only Ning Hao, but even the producer Lin was tortured to death and tried every possible way to save money.

But also because of this, her business ability has improved by leaps and bounds.

As the steering wheel swung.

The van drove into the hotel yard and stopped.

Inn No. 9.

A big sign comes into view.

There were several people pacing back and forth in front of the hotel, led by Ning Hao.

I was just busy discussing a plot design.

He just couldn't spare the time.

Now that things have been discussed, he quickly called the screenwriter, assistant director and others to go downstairs to welcome the God of Wealth together. This attitude of importance should be maintained.

Looking at the stopped vehicle, Ning Hao rushed down the stairs.

The car door opened with a swish.

The people behind followed awkwardly and nervously, looking inside the car curiously.

The entire crew's front- and back-stage staff are basically marginal figures or invisible people in the circle, but it is this group of people who burst out with extremely strong vitality.

It made countless people drop their jaws.

Putting his sunglasses on his collar, Li Luo jumped out of the car with a smile.

"Brother Luo."

"Hello, Luoge!!!"

Ning Hao stretched out his hand happily.

Several people behind him also greeted in unison.

Everyone looked at Li Luo who got out of the car with shining eyes. The previous dream declaration was more theirs than Li Luo's.

This one in front of me.

Not a big star.

But the one who helped them realize their movie dreams!
"Thanks for your hard work."

Li Luo held Ning Hao's hand firmly.

After not seeing each other for a few months, this senior of mine looked extremely tired.

But the light in the eyes.

Still shining.

"It's not hard work!"

Ning Hao took a deep breath and shook his arms vigorously with both hands: "Come, let me introduce you to the behind-the-scenes creator of our crew. This is the screenwriter Ma Xiaojun. Xiaojun in the theft gang is him."

An acquaintance!
Is he better than my eldest brother? Is he better than me?
Li Luo’s brain almost crashed.

Facing the smiling faces, Li Luo shook hands politely.

After he greeted everyone, the tall girl stepped forward and smiled at everyone: "Hello, director, hello everyone."

"I am actor Wang Ou, please give me your guidance."

"Good good."

There was a cacophony of responses.

Those who can come here with the investors must have a special relationship no matter how you look at it.

Everyone was extremely polite.

Led by Ning Hao, Li Luo walked up the stairs.

The former couldn't wait to show him the results of his work during this period, wanting to prove that he had lived up to the hard-earned trust, so much so that he walked as if he was jogging.

Smiling at the stunned waitress, Li Luo walked into the elevator.

Can't get in.

You can only wait for the next one.

The elevator door closed, blocking out the screams.

"No hurry to the room."

Li Luo tapped his watch and said in a deep voice: "I will leave after staying for one night. There are also people waiting to join the team in Hengdian. If you don't mind, let's start working right away!"

"no problem."

Ning Hao quickly pressed the corresponding floor button.

It is one thing not to interfere with the creation, but it is another to understand the progress of the work.

Even if Li Luo didn't say it.

He also wanted to report on his work status during this period.

It's just to make myself feel at ease.

"Ding."

The elevator doors opened quickly.

"Director, where have you been? I just happened to need your help."

"what."

"Brother Luo Luo?"

Standard Mandarin was heard outside the elevator, and a man who was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin came into view. He had a very plain appearance, so ugly that he was funny.

But it was this face that later made him become a billion-dollar movie star.

He looked at the surprised man in front of him.

A smile appeared on Li Luo's lips.

at the same time,

Huang Bo swallowed hard and hurriedly stepped aside.
