HuaYu: Starting with Photography to Navigate the Entertainment Industry

Upon hearing this topic, the beautiful women all put down what they were doing and stared at Xu Lang.

After all, they voluntarily sided with Xu Lang because they were after the resources he possessed.

What are the plans for 2005?

Xu Lang was also thinking about this question.

Now, the situation he faces is also very simple:

First and foremost, the core task is to make money!

Xu Lang signed a performance-based agreement with Huayi Brothers, aiming for a profit of ten million yuan per year. Although the pressure wasn't too great, these kinds of things always need to be pushed forward, and the sooner it's completed, the better.

He can only regain his freedom after completing the mission.

Besides making money, the second point is to get the opportunity to adapt the two scripts he has, "Chinese Paladin 3" and "Struggle," into TV series as soon as possible.

Xu Lang was confident that even if he did nothing else, the profits from these two TV series alone would far exceed 3000 million.

However, he is not alone now.

Looking at the five beautiful women around him, Xu Lang had to consider their needs.

It is expected that filming for "The Return of the Condor Heroes" will wrap up in the first half of this year, at which point Qin Feifei will be fine.

"Today, we have to arrange another film for her."

Xu Lang thought for a moment, then looked at Tang Yan.

"Right now, she still has two roles: the fairy in 'The Little Fish and the Flower Without Flaws' and the lilac in 'The Lotus Lantern,' so she's not in a hurry."

As for Yang Ying and Liu Yan?

Xu Lang wasn't in a hurry. Both of them were doing well on Hunan TV's "Happy Camp" and had secured their place in the industry.

"Let's just stay here and work there for now!"

However, Xu Lang still held high hopes for the two of them, especially Yang Ying, which were:

Accept GG!

Qin Feifei, Tang Yan, and even An Yixuan, all have to wait until the TV series airs to become famous.

The earliest version of "Chinese Paladin 1" won't be broadcast on satellite TV until the middle of this year, so we can see how it performs.

Expecting them to pick up guys? It's too early!

Liu Yan and Yang Ying, as hosts of "Happy Camp", became famous the fastest, especially Yang Ying, who is now an idol for many young men and women.

"We need to get her more gigolos as soon as possible!"

Getting paid for GG is where the real money is made.

The last one is Zhang Liangying, Xu Lang's darling.

"This year is a crucial year for you!"

The 2005 Super Girl competition was of paramount importance.

"Xiaoying, you only have one goal: to win the championship!"

Hearing Xu Lang's words, Zhang Liangying felt a surge of excitement; this was the day she had been waiting for.

However, given her personality, she still looked at Xu Lang with some trepidation.

"Brother Lang, the championship? Can I do it?"

"Okay, you are the undisputed champion!"

Although Xu Lang said this, he still had certain expectations for the fierce competition in the 2005 Super Girl competition.

After all, neither Li Yuchun nor Zhou Bichang should be underestimated.

They're incredibly popular!

Xu Lang was thinking about the Super Girl competition when the phone rang again.

The call connected, and it was from Zhang Hanyun, the 2004 Super Girl champion.

"Happy New Year, Brother Xu Lang!"

Happy Chinese New Year.

"I was planning to visit you, but it's only the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and my boss has already dragged me to the company."

As Zhang Hanyun was speaking, she heard a man's voice coming from the phone.

"Is that Xu Lang? Come, let me say a few words to him."

That voice belonged to Li Xiaolin.

"Xu Lang, you're such a busy man, it's not easy to even see you these days!"

"Mr. Li, not at all! I'm just a small-time operator, how can I compare to a big boss like you?"

At this point, Xu Lang glanced at the five people beside him, a thought struck him, and he said:

"Mr. Li, you're not in Chengdu? I'll come find you at noon, shall we get together?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaolin quickly said:

"That's great! A friend is coming over, let's have lunch together."

"Okay, I'll bring a few friends too."

I hung up the phone.

Xu Lang said to the five beauties:

"Come on, I'll take you guys out for lunch!"

Lion Tower, a time-honored brand in Chengdu.

This is where Li Xiaolin is treating everyone to lunch.

As soon as Xu Lang appeared with a group of beautiful women, the private room lit up instantly.

Looking at Xu Lang surrounded by beautiful women, Li Xiaolin felt both envious and amused, and couldn't help but point.

"Xu Lang, Xu Lang, your entrance is certainly unique!"

Zhang Hanyun, on the other hand, skipped and hopped over, hugging Xu Lang's arm and chattering away.

Xu Lang patted her head, exchanged a few pleasantries with her, and then looked at the others.

Besides Li Xiaolin and Zhang Hanyun, there were two other men in the private room, both looking to be in their twenties. When they saw Xu Lang and his large group arrive, they stood awkwardly to the side.

Xu Lang looked the two men over and felt that they both looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember their names for the moment.

Just then, Li Xiaolin introduced Xu Lang to him:

"Hey bro, come on, let me introduce you to two friends."

As he spoke, he pointed to the two people and introduced them:

"These are Ning Hao and Wuershan, the two of them..."

"What?"

Upon hearing these two names, Xu Lang was both surprised and delighted.

"It's like my wish came true!"

"Well..."

Seeing Xu Lang's strong reaction, Li Xiaolin, Ning Hao, and Wuershan were all filled with doubt.

"Brother, you..."

Now, Xu Lang has come to understand that Ning Hao and Wuershan were not yet famous at this time.

"It's okay, I'm happy to meet two senior students here!"

Hearing Xu Lang say this, Ning Hao and Wu Ershan were also very surprised, as they were also from the Beijing Film Academy.

Ning Hao, in particular, is also from the Beijing Film Academy's School of Cinematography, and has an even closer relationship with Xu Lang.

With that said, the group quickly bonded.

After both were seated, while pouring drinks, Xu Lang asked Li Xiaolin curiously,

"Mr. Li, the New Year isn't even over yet, and you're already busy with work?"

When this is mentioned, Li Xiaolin gives a wry smile.

"Sigh, there's no way around it. Andy Lau's 'Asian New Director' project is about to come to an end. There are still quite a few directors and films that haven't been finalized yet, so we have to hurry."

At this point, he pointed to Ning Hao's Wuershan and said:

"Both of them came to me this time because of this plan."

The "Heavenly King" that Li Xiaolin mentioned was naturally Andy Lau.

"So it's the 'Asian Rising Star Directors' program!"

Xu Lang was indeed aware of this plan; Andy Lau had invested HK$2500 million to support emerging directors.

The two most famous films from this project are "Crazy Stone" and "Painted Skin".

Ning Hao is the director of "Crazy Stone".

As Xu Lang recalled the history, his eyes grew brighter and brighter, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

"Haha, if I don't seize this opportunity that's been delivered to my doorstep, I'd be doing a disservice to my title as a reborn person!"
