After getting off the plane, Xiao He and Xiao Chen didn't dare to relax and left through a special passage fully armed.
Xiao He and Xiao Chen both breathed a sigh of relief when they got into the car sent by the studio to pick them up at the airport.
"What's wrong?"
The driver asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Brother Qi, you have no idea, Brother Xiao and I almost got stuck at the airport in the US."
Xiao Chen immediately leaned over the seat in front of him and excitedly told the driver, Lao Qi, what had happened.
Old Qi is now in his forties, with a burly build, and is one of the more senior staff members in the industry. He has worked as a bodyguard and a driver, fought with anti-fans, and raced cars with obsessive fans. He is a very knowledgeable person. After listening to Xiao Chen's words, he simply raised an eyebrow.
"Oh? Such a thing actually happened?"
"Yes! Yes!" Xiao Chen nodded. "Does Brother Qi know about the overseas release?"
"I heard that it wasn't very good at first, but recently the box office has started to rise. I don't know the details, you can go back and ask Manager Liu."
It was only then that Xiao He noticed in the rearview mirror that Lao Qi's left eyebrow was broken, which made him look somewhat fierce, but his eyes were very upright and his aura was not dangerous, so he seemed to be a good person.
Seemingly noticing Xiao He's gaze, Lao Qi also looked at the rearview mirror and made eye contact with Xiao He for a moment.
He then politely nodded slightly to Xiao He before turning his attention back to the road ahead.
Xiao He raised an eyebrow.
He's a very perceptive guy.
Where did Sister Liu find this person? They seem pretty good…
-
More than half an hour later, they arrived at the studio without incident.
When Xiao He returned this time, he found that there were more workstations in the studio, and there were many more people. The empty room next door had even begun a new stage of renovation.
The entire area exudes a sense of prosperity and vitality.
Xiao He and Xiao Chen came in, and many people greeted them.
Xiao He nodded in acknowledgment and then walked down the corridor to Liu Rulan's office.
"Knock knock—"
"Enter."
Xiao He pushed open the door and saw Liu Rulan sitting at her desk, holding a pen and signing documents with practiced ease.
"I'm back."
Liu Rulan glanced at Xiao He, finished writing the last stroke, and then closed the file. "Perfect timing. Just wanted to let you know that the drama 'The Imperial Decree,' which our studio invested in, has finished filming and is currently in post-production. It is expected to be released during the upcoming summer season."
"So fast!"
Xiao He expressed surprise.
"The Imperial Decree" is the first web series independently produced by Linghui Studio. It tells the story of how a seemingly delicate but actually cunning female protagonist uses her intelligence to climb the ranks in the cutthroat imperial harem.
If Xiao He remembers correctly, the female lead of this drama was someone he discovered from Peking Opera.
That was before the Spring Festival, and now only a few months have passed, yet filming has already been completed. That's incredibly efficient.
Liu Rulan explained, "This is basically the pace of filming web series nowadays. With Mr. Ma overseeing things, they just need to ensure the quality."
"Too."
Adhering to the principle of "if you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them," Xiao He didn't dwell on the matter further. Instead, he shifted the topic to himself: "How's the overseas release of 'Law of the Jungle' going? Xiao Chen and I almost got stuck at the airport in the US."
Liu Rulan was somewhat surprised, then apologized and rubbed her forehead: "I forgot to tell you about this."
