Li Shaozhong was greatly encouraged after hearing his second brother's plan. "Second brother, I also have some evidence. I'll give it to you later. This time, we're going to give them a big move."

Li Shaoyang asked curiously, "When did you investigate?"

Li Shaozhong said: "Before in Fengyang Village, Wang Qianru came to see me and Xiao Ning told me some of the situations she had heard. At that time, I was unable to move around and could not go to investigate, and I felt that it had little to do with us.

After Xiao Ning and Jing Yu got into trouble, I asked someone I trusted to investigate some matters. I not only investigated the Wang family, but also the Xue family, all based on Xiao Ning's tips. And the Zhao family, in fact, was the worst. Zhao Huixin was particularly vicious. She was very scheming and had instigated many people to do bad things.

The Wang and Xue families took advantage of their positions to accept a lot of bribes, but they did it very secretly and it was difficult to find evidence, but they still gained something.

The Zhao family is colluding with an unknown force. There's no evidence yet, and I haven't dared to ask anyone else to investigate. This is too important to leak, and the Zhao family can't be on guard."

Li Shaoyang was surprised by what his brother said, "You actually found out so much?"

Li Shaozhong said, "Actually, Xiao Ning told me a lot about this. I don't know why she knew about them, but she didn't have any evidence, so she asked me to look into it. Uncle Ye also gave me some information. He said if I needed evidence, he had some."

With more clues and evidence, Li Shaoyang became more confident. "Don't worry about these things anymore. Leave it to me. Just work hard at the Zhuzhou Foreign Trade Bureau and strive for a higher position. Then you'll have more say and perhaps a chance to go to Nangang, or promote cooperation between mainland and Nangang businesses. Then maybe you'll have the chance to meet Xiao Ning."

Li Shaozhong had also had such plans a long time ago. "I think so too. If Xiao Ning really builds a factory in Nangang, then maybe we can cooperate with her company. Maybe I will have a chance to be stationed in Nangang."

Li Shaoyang patted his brother's shoulder and said, "Then work hard. If there are no opportunities, we can create them. Only when you are strong can you protect the people you want to protect."

The two brothers chatted until very late before going to bed. The next day, Li Shaozhong took a rest and slept until around nine o'clock.

When he saw the note left by his second brother, he knew that the man had already gone out to do something.

The night Ye Shuning came back, she called Qin Zongye and told them that she had returned to Nangang.

Qin Zongye was surprised when he received Ye Shuning's call. "Why are you back so soon? Didn't you say you would stay in the mainland for a week?"

Ye Shuning sighed and said, "It started out pretty smoothly. I even got to see my father. But then I ran into someone who knew me. Although we didn't have direct contact, she saw me. I was afraid she would recognize me, which would be troublesome. So I told Uncle Ling, and we changed our plans and came back early."

Qin Zongye didn't expect Ye Shuning and the others to encounter such an emergency. He comforted them, "Don't worry. Once you return to Nangang, it won't be easy for them to find you even if they want to. Besides, you're using a pseudonym, so there's no need to worry."

I have good news for you. Our film has already grossed 13 million yuan, and I estimate it should be easy to get 20 million yuan in Nangang. We're also actively preparing for overseas releases, which are expected to bring in a lot of money as well. We've made a killing this time. With this money, your dream of opening a production studio will soon be realized."

Ye Shuning was also very happy and said, "The funds are not enough yet. We have to strike while the iron is hot and make a few more hit movies to earn more money. Then we will have more funds to build the factory.

I've already started writing the script. With my experience, I can finish it quickly. We can start filming the next one without waiting for the popularity of this movie to die down."

Qin Zongye was delighted when he heard this. "That's great. We can still let Director Wu shoot the film and use the previous actors. They're now very famous and have even more box office appeal. With the influence of the previous film, I believe this film will attract even more attention."

Ye Shuning said: "This time I am not writing a martial arts novel, I am writing a fairy tale, a script with mythological elements.

Compared to traditional martial arts, Xianxia is more ethereal and imaginary. The drama features characters from myths and legends, such as immortals, gods, demons, and monsters, and the protagonists possess various magical weapons and artifacts.

In the mortal world, humans have emotions and desires, enduring all kinds of hardships to survive. Even immortals have emotions, avenging vengeance with ease and clearly distinguishing between love and hate. They possess emotions, but they are unwavering. Their realm is higher than that of mortals.

This subject has never been filmed before, and I want to give it a try. But I don't know if the audience will like it. I don't know if you're still willing to invest."

Qin Zongye still had great faith in Ye Shuning's abilities, and he couldn't let Ye Shuning bear the risk alone. "Of course I have to invest. Let's film together. Although I don't know much about the Xianxia you mentioned, I believe in you."

I suspect many film companies will imitate our films, and audiences will start to get tired of them. We're being original and staying ahead of the curve. As long as the story is good and the visuals are captivating, audiences will definitely enjoy it."

Ye Shuning certainly wouldn't let her money go to waste. "Don't worry, this new movie will be even more exciting."

Ye Shuning was already preparing to use computer special effects. She had previously been studying editing and film post-production.

She had already downloaded some software from her computer and was learning how to create special effects. She didn't need to create complex special effects, after all, the technology of this era was still very backward, and she could achieve something that others couldn't achieve by just using some later technology.

She couldn't use anything too complicated, either. It would be difficult for her to complete it alone, and she lacked the equipment. Too much complexity would also arouse suspicion. She just wanted to make the film's visuals as exciting as possible.

The film also required custom-made costumes, accessories, magical instruments, and other props. She had plenty of references from movies and TV series, so she didn't bother overthinking it. She simply planned to replicate a classic Xianxia film from her past life. She believed the box office wouldn't be too bad.

People in this era still have a relatively scarce entertainment life, and watching movies is a very common entertainment activity. She wants to seize these years to earn more money.

Qin Zongye said that he would send Li Jingyu back tomorrow and the two ended the call.

As soon as she left the mainland, Ye Shuning began to miss her father and Li Shaozhong. To distract herself, she threw herself into work and decided to write the script first.
