Xu Fan leaned back in his office chair and said nonchalantly, "I'm not busy."
Jiang Sisi and Shao Wulin were speechless for a moment. If the other person said he was not busy, then that probably meant he would not leave.
However, they realized it later and looked at Lu Ziyao. They seemed to have overlooked something just now. Why did this young author speak so rudely to their Director Xu? This was a blatant order to expel him. They didn't dare to do that, so why was he so bold?
not busy?
Lu Ziyao felt that Xu Fan was really idle!
Is a general counsel so idle? Is she not familiar with their work and therefore doesn't understand it?
"Not busy, right?"
Lu Ziyao thought that since Xu Fan was not busy, she just happened to have something that she wanted to trouble him for help: "Can I ask Director Xu for a favor?"
"Oh, sure." Xu Fan didn't expect Lu Ziyao to be so impolite.
He really doesn't treat himself as an outsider at all!
However, Xu Fan only complained in his heart, but he cooperated with Lu Ziyao very well.
"Help me open this screen mirroring and connect it to my computer, thank you."
After all, this is someone else's office, and not all projectors look the same, so it's better for them to be more familiar with them.
Xu Fan started helping Lu Ziyao without saying anything. These were just small things to him.
"alright."
After Xu Fan was done, Lu Ziyao was also done and she directly projected the information she had prepared onto the screen. This way, when she explained it, everyone could see it more clearly and understand it better.
Lu Ziyao first gave a copy of the information she had prepared to Jiang Sisi and Shao Wulin.
"What about me?"
Xu Fan couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with the empty space in front of him.
"I didn't know you were coming to sit in today, Director Xu, so I didn't prepare an extra copy. Just watch the projection screen later!"
Lu Ziyao hadn't considered Xu Fan at all, and she didn't expect Xu Fan to be so free today to sit here and listen to all this.
Obviously these have nothing to do with his work!
Speaking of which, isn't this just abusing public power for personal gain and being lazy?
"Okay, okay!" Xu Fan was relatively easy to talk to. If there was no answer, then there was no answer. It was his fault for not telling him in advance.
"Director Xu, Wulin and I will just take one, and this one is for you." Jiang Si thought for a moment, or they could split it up equally!
Just as Xu Fan was about to reach out to take it, Lu Ziyao blurted out, "No need."
This made Xu Fan's hand freeze in mid-air. It was not right to extend his hand, and it would be awkward to retract it. He just looked at Lu Ziyao in confusion.
"What's wrong? Director Xu, do you need it?"
Lu Ziyao tilted her head and looked at Xu Fan, and asked very seriously.
"No need." Lu Ziyao asked, and Xu Fan took his hand back: "I'm not important, I don't need a separate copy, I'll just watch the screen projection later."
Lu Ziyao nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Jiang Sisi and Shao Wulin and said with a smile, "You two teachers are professionals. You guys take a look first. Director Xu probably won't understand what he's saying!"
Xu Fan: ...
What? Is this a heart-wrenching and finishing blow?
Was this revenge for him initially suspecting she was having an affair with their boss? Was she truly unwilling to take any loss, or give them any respect?
However, Xu Fan had no way to deal with this.
Xu Fan could only wait boredly for Lu Ziyao to start her lecture using the screen projection. After all, he was not a professional and could not understand it. He was just here to join in the fun, so he just had to sit quietly and be a tool.
Jiang Sisi and Shao Wulin once again felt Lu Ziyao's critical hit on Xu Fan. They also secretly looked at Xu Fan's expression, and he didn't seem unhappy.
In this situation, people can't help but take a closer look at this young but beautiful girl in front of them.
To be honest, being able to get involved in costumes and props means you have some background.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, the author would not be allowed to intervene so much.
After all, the author is first-rate in writing or drawing comics, but when it comes to film and television adaptation, he can only be considered a newcomer and cannot compare with those who work in this field.
This is what it means to specialize in one's field.
In order for the original author to be able to participate to such a deep extent, either this author has previous experience in film and television adaptation and is a big shot, or he has a strong backing that can give her such rights.
These things really only require a little thought to figure out.
However, when Lu Ziyao spoke to them, she was very polite and didn't look like someone with any connections at all.
Generally, people with strong backing tend to be very arrogant and confident when speaking, and they have the final say in everything. However, this cannot be seen from Lu Ziyao.
"Teacher Jiang, Teacher Shao, you can take a look first. I will explain it to you in detail later."
Seeing that the two of them seemed to be staring at her in a daze, Lu Ziyao couldn't help but speak up to remind them.
"Oh, okay."
They came back to their senses and responded, then lowered their heads to look at the drawings given by Lu Ziyao. They didn't think much of it before, but as soon as they saw them, they felt amazing. Their eyes lit up, and then they began to take this matter seriously.
It's because their thinking is too narrow. Before, they thought it might not be that good and they just came here to show off. In the end, it should still be decided according to their ideas. After all, it is impossible for an outsider to do the work of an expert.
But the reality slapped them in the face. They didn't expect that the other person really had this ability, and such a high level of skill.
Xu Fan was sitting opposite them, bored and dazed. He suddenly noticed that their faces changed and their eyes lit up. He was shocked. It seemed that Lu Ziyao was going to give them another big surprise.
The more this happened, the more curious Xu Fan became.
Lu Ziyao waited until they had finished watching most of it before she began to explain, "Because the work I'm adapting into a TV series is a comic, it has a visual feel, so I hope the costumes, makeup, and props can be as close to those in the comic as possible."
The costumes, makeup and props in the novel are only described in words, and you can only rely on your imagination to imagine what they look like specifically, so as long as the details are achieved, it will look very similar.
Comics are different from novels. Comics are very intuitive, and readers also have preconceived notions. If it is not possible to make the content roughly the same as in the comics, readers may not buy it.
All these factors must be taken into consideration, and you can't be too casual about it.
