Chapter 68 Legendary Director Feng Zhengyang (2/2)

Of course, that wish is now far from being his.

After signing the documents, Xiao He officially became one of the shareholders of Linghui Studio, while the biggest boss was still Liu Rulan.

As he put away his pen, Xiao He joked, "If I ever hire new people, I'll finally get to experience what it's like to be a boss."

Liu Rulan rolled her eyes: "Don't even think about being a newbie for the next few years. It's already exhausting enough to mentor you. If you're interested in being a boss, then congratulations, you're the boss now."

Xiao He: "Hiss—so casual?"

Liu Rulan spread her hands: "There are only the two of us as investors. If I agree and you agree, then it's approved."

Xiao He's lips twitched: "Then let's forget it. I just feel like being a boss isn't very interesting..."

"No way." Liu Rulan patted Xiao He solemnly and said earnestly, "So next month's audition depends on you. It's Director Feng! If we can get the role, we can break even in half a year. I'm also hoping you'll give us a bigger bonus."

Xiao He: "..."

Wait, something's not right. Why does he feel like he's jumped into a pit?

Of course, these were all just jokes. Since the topic of next month's audition had come up, Xiao He changed the subject and asked the question that had been bothering him: "What's the situation with that audition? Sister Liu, didn't you find out any clues? Even if I were to prepare now, I'd still be completely clueless."

Without mentioning the subject matter, the characters, or the script, all that's known is that director Feng Zhengyang is about to return to the screen and prepare to shoot a new film. As a result, the entire Chinese entertainment industry is buzzing with excitement, eagerly awaiting further news from Director Feng.

Speaking of Feng Zhengyang, he is undoubtedly a super director in the industry. He is the former director of the Y Province Art Research Institute and a member of the China Senior Directors Association. His works have won Hong Kong film awards many times. His last work before retiring from the industry even went abroad and won the Best Director Award at the Cannes International Film Festival.

At the same time, due to Feng Zhengyang's distinctive personal creative style, some people have bluntly called his style "Feng Zhengyang style". Even today, many directing students study and emulate it, taking him as their idol and goal.

This director, who was significant to his time, had retired from the entertainment industry seven years ago, and he was rarely seen in the public eye.

Therefore, the news that Director Feng was about to return to the screen naturally attracted the attention of countless people.

Strangely, Director Feng was unusually secretive this time, not announcing the subject matter of the film he was preparing, or even its name. Only those who had heard rumors were secretly anxious.

Even Liu Rulan, who is always well-informed, could not find any reliable intelligence.

"It's said that even the investors haven't seen the script for this movie," Liu Rulan shrugged. "Let alone us."

"The investors didn't even know what to film, yet they poured in so much money?" Xiao He was shocked. "Aren't they afraid of losing money?!"

"That's Director Feng."

Liu Rulan spread her hands, "Do you know what the name Director Feng means? Even seven years later, his film 'Moonlight' is still among the top five highest-rated films on the China Film Chart!"

"If that film hadn't been released in the wrong era, it would probably be among the top ten highest-grossing films today!"

"As long as it's directed by Feng Xiaogang, his works are bound to be masterpieces!"

“I know he’s really talented…” Xiao He frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed, “But I heard that he retired from the entertainment industry because…”

Shh, don't talk nonsense.

Liu Rulan subconsciously glanced around.

Even in the office, there are some things you can't say carelessly.

"Even the police haven't reached a conclusion about what happened back then, so you should just pretend you don't know. Otherwise, do you think no one else knows about this? Everyone pretending not to know is how this industry can continue to thrive."

Xiao He seemed to be deep in thought, but didn't say anything more. He just nodded to reassure Liu Rulan, "I understand, Sister Liu. Don't worry, I won't say anything inappropriate later."
