Xu Fan was slightly excited. He believed that as long as the old gentleman was willing to read the script, its content would definitely attract him.

In fact, this script doesn't contain all the content, but only a part of it. The scene where the room is full of money is depicted vividly with just a few strokes in the script.

The old man took Xu Fan's script and started reading it. As he read, his eyes narrowed involuntarily. When he looked at another page, he found that it was gone.

The old man frowned and stared at Xu Fan, saying, "That's all?"

Xu Fan quickly replied, "Of course not, this is just a part of it. This anti-corruption drama will have at least forty episodes."

Upon hearing this, the old man Zhou He asked, "Your TV series is a bit too explicit. I'm afraid it won't pass muster."

Xu Fan nodded and said, "In order to make it more realistic, we adopted the principle of directly using the prototype this time. So, in essence, these are the batch that are currently being modified."

Xu Fan nodded and said, "That's exactly the idea, but it's just the prototype; the appearance has been altered."

Upon hearing this, the old man frowned deeply, because he had been pondering a question: what exactly was he playing that led him to this particular character?

Zhao Dehan, who has hundreds of millions but only eats noodles?

His gaze fell on Xu Fan, with a hint of inquiry in it.

Xu Fan nodded and said, "That's right, what I mean is that you should play Zhao Dehan, because this role is too important to me, and I don't trust anyone else to play it."

Upon hearing this, a smile flashed across the old man's face. After all, it felt very comfortable to be recognized. Although the person being recognized was a young man, the fact that a young man dared to film such a bold anti-corruption drama was remarkable.

The old man frowned and said, "To be honest, although this event hasn't been going on for long, I want to act, but it's been a very long time since I've acted, so I'm worried."

Xu Fan quickly said, "For excellent actors, acting skills are something ingrained in their bones. I believe you can perfectly portray this role."

The old man nodded and said, "I'll study it carefully. When should we start filming?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan was overjoyed. He knew that the old man had agreed to his request, and quickly replied, "It will be within the next few days."

Upon hearing this, the old man shook his head and said, "I'll postpone it a bit. My health isn't good right now; I need to recover for a few days."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan realized that there was absolutely no problem with it.

He smiled and said, "Okay, don't worry. I'll finish filming all the other scenes first, and try to get the eighty swords out as much as possible. Then we'll film your role later."

Zhou He smiled and said, "Young and promising, not bad, not bad. Then I'll thank you in advance."

Xu Fan quickly shook his head and said, "Sir, you flatter me. We will pay you the market rate for your fee."

At this moment, the old man shook his head and said, "Stop talking so much nonsense and go buy me two pounds of fatty meat."

Xu Fan knew that the old man was starting to take care of his health, since he was now extremely thin.

Zhao Dehan's appearance, while not needing to be as fat as a pig, shouldn't be as thin as the old man is now, like a bamboo pole.

Zhou He knew his problem, so his first priority was to gain weight. Eating fatty meat was the simplest and most direct way to do it. Although it wasn't effective immediately, it was still the simplest method available.

The old man was willing to do this for the sake of filming a TV series. This wasn't out of love, but rather out of his seriousness and responsibility towards his work.

For Zhou He, the most important reason why he hasn't filmed a TV series in recent years is not because of his poor acting skills, but because he hasn't had a good script.

When he saw the script Xu Fan gave him, he was stunned. Although it was only a few pages long, it was undeniably captivating.

The text descriptions and storylines really made him realize that although it was an anti-corruption drama, it was shocking because it was so realistic.

Even though he knew that he was only playing a small part of the play, it was of paramount importance.

He could sense that Xu Fan valued him highly, and he knew that if he agreed, he would do his best.

So no matter what, I have to take good care of myself during the shoot. Before the shoot, I absolutely cannot be this thin.

The character in the story, despite embezzling hundreds of millions, is still eating noodles, but that doesn't mean he's thin.

At least he won't be too thin.

Xu Fan left the microphone, bought two jin of fertilizer, and then returned to the kitchen to cook for the old man himself.

The old man merely smiled as he watched this scene.

But in any case, with the issue of finding an actor for the role of Zhao Dehan resolved, Xu Fan felt that there were basically no major problems left.

Anyway, there are actors for almost all the roles. Even Leng Xiaogu played a minor role in the TV series, which can be considered an opportunity.

Most importantly, the filming of the TV series was rushed this time, so many actors had to be present on set.

In any case, Xu Fan hopes to create a truly impactful TV series this time, rather than one that gains a lot of praise by relying on popular idols and cuteness.

Xu Fan hopes this will be a wake-up call for people.

In fact, in another world, Xu Fan was well aware that the final outcome depicted in this TV series was truly astonishingly powerful.

Therefore, Xu Fan was very clear at this moment that as long as the TV series was filmed, it would definitely bring a shocking result to everyone.

After confirming Mr. Zhou He's participation, Xu Fan left his new contact information and left. He then rushed to the hotel and met Greta.

Greta had been in China for a day at this point, but he had actually stayed in the hotel the whole time and hadn't gone anywhere else.

Originally, the task of handling Pei Greta was entrusted to Zhao Feiyang, but Zhao Feiyang ended up being busy with various matters, leaving her alone in the hotel.

So when Xu Fan met Greta, he said apologetically, "Miss Greta, I'm so sorry, I've been too busy."

Greta shook her head and said, "Mr. Xu Fan, you're too kind. It's the same for me wherever I am."

Seeing that the other party wasn't really angry, Xu Fan felt a little grateful and said, "Miss Greta, how about we have a meal together?"

Greta was overjoyed and quickly agreed.

Xu Fan then called Xiao Pu, who rushed over shortly after and was stunned when she saw Greta.

Xu Fan quickly said, "Miss Greta, this is my girlfriend, Pu Sihan."

Xiao Pu was slightly taken aback and subconsciously glanced at Xu Fan. Lion rarely said his own name, but today his introduction seemed so formal.

But Xiao Pu was only startled for a moment, and quickly looked at Greta and said, "You are Greta?"

Greta paused for a moment, then greeted her, saying, "Yes, I'm Greta, nice to meet you."

Xiao Pu quickly replied, "I'm also very happy to meet you. To be honest, I really like your songs. I've heard every single one of them. Could you sing one for me?"

Greta smiled and said, "Of course, right here?"

Xu Fan was taken aback. What had he called Xiao Pu over for? How come the two of them were now walking together with their thugs?

So he quickly said, "I think we should go eat first."

Greta smiled and said, "I have no objection."

Xiao Pu excitedly said, "I'm not in a hurry. I just really love Greta. I like it very, very much."

At that moment, Xu Fan felt that his group was somewhat superfluous.

He stood up, looked around, and thought about it. He wondered if he had interrupted their conversation.

But considering the current situation, it seems that it hasn't really caused any disturbance, has it?

===Chapter 684 Singing on the Street===

Xu Fan knew that Xiao Pu really liked Greta.

But he still didn't expect Xiao Pu to be so infatuated. Of course, it might be because they were both girls, so they had more in common to talk about.

In response, Xu Fan said that there is nothing in this world that cannot be solved with a meal; if there is, then two meals will do.

I had hot pot twice when I visited Chengdu, and it was pretty good both in terms of taste and the essence of the experience.

So, Xu Fan interrupted the heatwave in Zhonghai and took Xiao Pu and Greta to try the hot pot from Chengdu in the southwest.

He believed that Greta from Gran would really "like" that spiciness.

But when Xu Fan revealed his plan, even Xiao Pu objected, let alone Greta.

Xu Fan explained that Greta was from Gran Country and probably didn't quite understand Chinese cuisine, so he naturally wanted to take her to try it.

But Greta proudly said in her not-so-standard Chinese, "Mr. Xu, can I skip the hot pot? It's really spicy."

Xiao Pu asked quietly from the side, "Why do you want to eat hot pot?"

Xu Fan said, "Mildly spicy is my absolute limit, but today I can take you to eat a hot pot with two broths."

Greta looked at Xiao Pu, who shook her head helplessly, took Greta's arm, and walked out.

Xu Fan chuckled softly, thinking to himself, "You little punks, I can't handle the two of you."

People in Zhonghai tend to prefer sweet food, and most people cannot accept hot pot, but Xu Fan is an exception.

After all, he is not a native of Zhonghai.

Xiao Pu is actually doing well, but her health hasn't allowed her to eat too much spicy food lately, something Xu Fan didn't notice, which is a bit of a pity.

The bubbling red soup looked quite appealing in front of the three of them, while the white soup next to it was also bubbling and steaming.

Xu Fan compromised, but she knew very well that hot pot could solve many problems, whether it was a spicy hot pot or a half-and-half hot pot.

After the hot pot meal was over, whether it was Xu Fan, Greta, or Xiao Pu...

Sweat streamed down everyone's faces; the combination of spicy and numbing flavors overwhelmed their taste buds, creating a truly exhilarating sensation.

As Xiao Pu walked out of the hot pot restaurant, rubbing her belly, she looked at the cars coming and going in the distance and said wistfully, "This city is actually more beautiful than I thought. I have you, I have Miss Greta, and the starry sky tonight."

Xu Fan figured the girl probably hadn't been drinking tonight, so he asked Xiao Pu, "What's wrong?"

Greta, standing to the side, also stretched out her hand, watching the passing vehicles, and said, "I love being a country, and I love this city. It's warm, loving, and I love it deeply."

Xu Fan stood there completely bewildered. What kind of ritual were these two talking about?

Xu Fan didn't know, nor could he find out, the specifics, but it was obvious that the two seemed to be getting closer and closer, and were even more likely to stick together.

Shaking his head helplessly, Xu Fan was utterly speechless.

As Xu Fan walked through the streets of Zhonghai City, he was accompanied by two beautiful women, one of whom was Greta, a superstar from the country of Grande.

If someone were to see this, they would be shocked, speechless, and filled with emotion.

But it was nighttime, and the lights were dim, so it was hard for anyone to see you clearly on the street, and not many people would accidentally see you and go out of their way to say hello.

However, at that moment, the three of them were drawn to a group of people gathered not far away.

Xiao Pu asked in confusion, "It sounds like they're singing over there."

Greta said, "Miss Sihan, you can remove the word 'seems like,' because they are singing."

Xu Fan looked at the two of them, smiled, and said, "Let's go, let's go take a look."
