178: The actress who looks remarkably like Mr. Yang's younger cousin! And there's news about the female lead!
Is the Streamer going to film a wuxia TV series next? Is that true? Why so sudden!
If it were anyone else, I might not believe it, but for the Streamer, it's not strange for this guy to do anything.
That's true, but it's a bit of a shame. I just had time to watch 'summers melancholy' two days ago, and it was too funny.
If the Streamer continues to make this kind of comedy, I think there's a big market for it, but a wuxia TV series...
Yeah, I don't know how many people are talking about this.
I don't understand why the Streamer suddenly thought of making a wuxia film out of nowhere. I really don't get it!
...No matter what, I'll support him. Whether it's a comedy or a wuxia film, I'll support it then.
No problem, we're all die-hard fans. The Streamer can do whatever he wants, and all we fans can do is support him.
Exactly, when he made comedy films before, didn't anyone think highly of them? What's the reality?
The box office of 'summers melancholy' has explained everything. The situation back then was similar to now.
Uh, that's true. Maybe the Streamer will make some people's faces slap again then.
...Actually, I'm quite looking forward to the Streamer's TV series. At least dozens of episodes, just thinking about it makes me a little excited.
Think about it, a movie takes a few months to make, but we watch it in two hours.
If it's a TV series, dozens of episodes would take at least half a month to finish watching. That's a bit of a gain, isn't it?
Oh, your way of thinking is a bit unique, but if you think about it that way, it really is a gain.
It's just a pity that TV series aren't as profitable as movies, but the investment is similar.
Think about 'summers melancholy' with a box office of over a billion. How much can a TV series sell for at most?
Yeah, all those who make TV series are single-mindedly thinking of making movies, but this Streamer doesn't follow the usual path...
...The fans in the live broadcast room were also extremely surprised by the news that Da Xu Culture would be filming a wuxia film in the next stage.
But fans are fans after all. A small number of people felt a bit regretful, but most of them expressed their support for Xu Lu.
Seeing these comments, she was quite touched.
That's right, it was 'she'!
Because our Great Director Xu was already busy with the casting of the TV series.
Only the Little Assistant saw these comments.
Speaking of casting, there was actually a group of people who were quite disappointed after hearing the news from Da Xu Culture.
That is, the group of Actors and Artists who participated in the movie 'summers melancholy'.
Before participating in this movie, almost everyone was unknown in the industry.
But after the movie became popular, they also became popular.
It can be said that 'summers melancholy' made them.
Some people have already taken advantage of this popularity to get roles with considerable pay and many scenes in other film crews.
But there were also some, like Chu Xinzhu, who played Dong Mei, who actually wanted to continue acting with Great Director Xu.
Because they all knew that their popularity wasn't due to their own abilities, but rather benefiting from Great Director Xu.
But who knew that at this very moment, they suddenly heard news from Da Xu Culture.
Great Director Xu wasn't planning to make a movie in the next stage, but instead was going to make a wuxia film!
This left Chu Xinzhu and the others a bit confused.
As mentioned before, in the industry, movies are inherently one level higher than TV series.
Under normal circumstances, Actors and Artists who can appear in movies would definitely not appear in TV series.
Similarly, under normal circumstances, Directors who can make movies would not think of making TV series.
Chu Xinzhu became popular for playing the female lead number one, Dong Mei, in the hit movie 'summers melancholy'.
Now, to turn around and act in a TV series, it's a bit unreasonable in itself.
Especially since quite a few film crews have already contacted her, offering conditions she couldn't have imagined before.
But after much deliberation, Chu Xinzhu still decided to call Director Xu directly.
To her excitement and nervousness, the call was answered shortly after she dialed:
"Hello, is that Little Chu?"
"It's me, Director Xu..."
Chu Xinzhu no longer hesitated and quickly explained her dilemma.
On one hand, she wanted to continue acting with Director Xu Lu; on the other hand, she also wanted to develop in a better direction.
A moment later, Chu Xinzhu hung up the phone with a smile... On the other side, Xu Lu, who also hung up the phone, boasted to the person next to him:
"Did you see that? This is the charm of personality. This is already the third Artist who has called me.
Director Tang, after these Artists sign with the company, arrange Managers and assistants for them according to their level.
I never thought about this before, but if the company wants to grow and expand, it also needs to start cultivating its own Artists..."
Tang Siqiao nodded:
"Okay, Boss Xu, I've noted it down!"
That's right!
Just now, Xu Lu provided a brand new idea to the confused Chu Xinzhu, which was to have her sign with Da Xu Culture.
As Boss Xu, who is not short of money, the signing conditions he offered were naturally quite generous.
It wasn't like the 'indentured servitude' type of contract that Xia Lifei Film and Television had. After hearing it, Chu Xinzhu agreed without a second thought.
Furthermore, this was also the cornerstone for Da Xu Culture to move forward, starting to cultivate its own company's Artists... On this day, a pretty and lively young girl suddenly appeared in the joint office of Da Xu Culture.
She first greeted someone, saying she was there to see Director Xu.
This greeting, however, startled the staff of Da Xu Culture quite a bit, with some even saying in surprise:
"Boss... Boss Yang?"
Unexpectedly, the girl waved her hand directly and said, "I'm not the Boss Yang you know. I want to see Boss Xu!"
Hearing this, everyone indeed noticed the difference.
Compared to the Celebrity Boss Yang, this girl was obviously much more immature, and probably not very old.
Someone came to their senses and quickly said:
"Go quickly, go quickly, tell Boss Xu right away that a girl who resembles Boss Yang is looking for him!"
Fortunately, Xu Lu was in the office today and quickly came out when he heard this.
Then, he was also startled.
The reason was that this girl looked too much like the Boss Yang he knew.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were 90% similar.
Of course, after seeing her for the first time, he already knew who this girl was.
Thinking of this, Xu Lu immediately smiled and said:
"You must be Yang Mi, right? Welcome, welcome. Your cousin told me about you before.
She said I'd be very surprised when I saw you, and I didn't believe it then, but now I do!"
"Boss Xu, I am Yang Mi! My cousin told me to listen to you!"
Yang Mi also took a step forward, nodding slightly shyly.
"Good, very good. I'll arrange a very important role for you then!"
Xu Lu nodded repeatedly, feeling quite good at this moment.
But he never expected that today's good news wouldn't stop there.
Not long after, Assistant Director Old Zhou brought him another piece of good news: there was a suitable candidate for the Female Protagonist who met his requirements.
