This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 476 It's Time for Director Lu to Keep His Promise

The cast of "Soldiers Sortie" was also bustling with activity.

The group chat was filled with one red envelope after another.

After Gao Cheng finishes, Shi Jin starts; after Shi Jin finishes, Yuan Lang starts; after Yuan Lang finishes, Wu Liuyi starts.

A group of people were having a great time grabbing red envelopes.

The popularity of "Soldiers Sortie" has also greatly increased the value and income of these actors.

It's worth noting that there wasn't a single popular celebrity in "Soldiers Sortie".

Before this show aired, viewers couldn't even recognize their faces.

Although they can't recall their own names now, they can at least recall the names of the characters they played.

Just recently, everyone's schedule has been fully booked.

Some received invitations from the military to shoot short promotional videos, some were to participate in programs on CCTV, and some were to participate in other variety shows.

"Where's Director Lu? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

After playing for a while, the group realized that Lu Ran hadn't come out to grab any red envelopes.

Wang Peng: "Director Lu has been quite busy lately, working on his flying sword project."

At this moment, Lu Ran popped up.

He sent a red envelope and said hello to everyone.

Li Yi immediately said, "Director Lu, when are you going to film a new drama? We'll continue to follow your lead."

A group of people immediately joined in the commotion.

These people have indeed received some scripts recently.

However, the scripts received at this time were generally of lower quality.

After filming "Soldiers Sortie," when they look at these scripts, it's like a direct downgrade in consumption.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

Who can bear this.

"That's right, we've rested long enough, it's time to get back to work."

"No matter what you write, if you dare to film it, we dare to act in it."

"We are all ready to receive your invitation at any time."

Lu Ran proudly puffed out his chest when he saw the way these people looked.

Finally, I'm starting to feel like a well-known screenwriter.

As soon as a famous screenwriter in the industry writes a name, a bunch of companies rush to buy the copyright, and a bunch of actors rush to act in it.

Of course, this only applies to the top screenwriters. Junior screenwriters have little say and are even bullied in the workplace and owed wages.

Seeing how enthusiastic this group of people was, Lu Ran didn't want to dampen their spirits.

If we're talking about continuing to make military dramas, there are modern military dramas and "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" that we could make, but if we're talking about war dramas, there are many more.

Both "Bright Sword" and "My Chief and My Regiment" are good choices.

In particular, Lu Ran remembered that the director of "My Chief and My Regiment" was the same person who directed "Soldiers Sortie," and even the screenwriter was the same person who wrote "Soldiers Sortie."

As for the actors, they are basically all actors from "Soldiers Sortie".

However, these dramas need to be prepared in advance if they are to be filmed.

His top priority now is to fulfill his promise to fans at the beginning of the year and to finish filming "Chinese Paladin".

A promise is a promise. If you don't keep a promise to your fans, that's one thing, but if you do keep a promise, you have to keep it.

Otherwise, Lu Ran would be ashamed to face the fan meeting and would have no way to explain himself to everyone.

Judging by the timing, the second meeting of the first Fan Representative Conference is about to be held.

Lu Ran sent a message.

"Everyone, wait for my news. I've already come up with a concept for a war drama, and if all goes well, we'll start filming it next year."

In the group chat, everyone immediately cheered.

"Okay, then I'm relieved. I'll definitely make time for you next year."

"Anti-Japanese War dramas are great! After covering modern times, they move on to the recent era. Let's talk about whether we could actually fight the Japanese devils, shall we?"

"Soldiers' Assault is good, but you can't fight the Japanese devils inside."

"Why don't you just give up on making war dramas and make a science fiction one? In some future year, the Japanese invaders suddenly attack us, and China is forced to launch a self-defense counterattack, and then we march into Tokyo. How about that?"

Looking at what these people were posting, Lu Ran had no idea what they were thinking.

He silently left the group chat and opened the chat window with Li Quan.

Li Quan sent him a lot of messages.

"Great! The Yuefu Award ceremony is tomorrow night, and all the preparations are complete."

The judging process for the Yuefu Award has been completed. As this is the first edition, the number of participants was limited.

After all, things can't be accomplished overnight, and it's impossible to expect an award to become a top award as soon as it's created.

The idea of ​​quick victory is unacceptable.

The awards ceremony was small in scale, but it had everything it needed.

The location is Qincheng.

As the organizer of this award, Lu Ran had to be present.

After chatting with Li Quan about the awards ceremony, Lu Ran turned on Douyin (TikTok) and started a live stream.

As soon as the live stream started, a group of netizens clicked in.

"Director Lu, hurry up and film the new drama! I feel terrible right now because of the finale of Soldiers Sortie!"

"I can't take it anymore, give me a new drama, any one will do."

"I suggest you stop sleeping and focus entirely on your work."

Looking at the anthropomorphic words of these silly netizens, Lu Ran said sincerely, "Only by resting well can I work well. The main reason for the live broadcast is to report to everyone on the follow-up work plan."

"The fantasy drama is ready to be filmed soon. The name of the drama is 'Chinese Paladin.' This is a promise I made to my fans at the fan appreciation event earlier this year, and I guarantee to fulfill that promise."

Upon hearing this, netizens reminisced for a moment.

Not to mention some new netizens, even some of Lu Ran's old fans have forgotten what Lu Ran said at the fan appreciation conference.

“Director Lu, I’m so upset. I had completely forgotten your promise back then, but you still remember it.”

“You mean what you say, Director Lu. You’re not joking.”

"But isn't it too risky to make fantasy films now?"

"I think it's alright. The Sword Immortal that Director Lu filmed before was pretty good."

"That's just a short video, not a TV series."

In the live stream, a group of netizens started arguing again.

The main reason is that fantasy dramas are indeed a huge pitfall.

Over the years, many viewers have removed this genre from their watchlists.

Lu Ran did not continue on this topic.

There's no point in saying all this, just get to work.

"There's one more thing. The Yuefu Award ceremony is tomorrow night at 8 pm. I hope everyone can come to the Douyin live stream and give it their support."

"Dude, I have to support you. Reimburse me for the data usage fee."

"The Yuefu Award now has an award ceremony? I must support it; I voted for it back then."

"I'll definitely come tomorrow night!"

After explaining these things, Lu Ran immediately ended the live stream.

The two things he mentioned in the live stream were immediately posted by marketing accounts.

Lu Ran is about to film a fantasy drama.

"The Yuefu Award Ceremony".

These two topics have become the focus of discussion in the entertainment industry.

In a villa in Shanghai, a member of Shengxie's group chat tagged him.

"Director Sheng, Lu Ran is really going to film a fantasy drama, this is your territory."

There was also a video following, which was a screen recording of Lu Ran speaking in the live stream.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Xie immediately perked up.

If Lu Ran continues to make military dramas, everyone should stay as far away from him as possible.

With Lu Ran's current influence, if he were to make a military drama, as long as it's not too bad, he would definitely have a large number of supporters.

But ancient costume fantasy dramas are different.

The current genre of ancient costume fantasy dramas belongs to the realm of popular celebrities.

"No, we can't underestimate Lu Ran. Others might run into problems when they switch genres, but Lu Ran might not. Besides, he also has a large following."

Sheng Xie thought for a moment and opened a private group.

This small group consists of people who are close to him, many of whom hold high positions and wield considerable influence in the entertainment industry.

Many of these people are also connected to the Golden Tripod Award and are all members of the Anti-Lu Alliance.

Sheng Xie sent a message in the group.

"Let's all work together, the chance for revenge has come."
