"Mr. Xu, you wanted to see me?"
Upon seeing Liu Mingqian emerge from the office, Feng Xiaoxia, who had already been alerted, immediately walked in and asked.
To be honest, he was somewhat eager to try it out at that moment.
He guessed what it might be about that he had been called in for.
After all, the TV series "The Return of the Condor Heroes" has already been released on DaXu Video Network and has received a very good response.
Mr. Xu's side will definitely not have a long gap period.
So it's obvious that there must be a project to be done, otherwise why would Mr. Xu call me, the producer, in?
As Feng Xiaoxia expected, after gesturing for him to sit down, Xu Lu smiled and said:
"Xiaoxia, I called you in for one thing. The company is preparing to shoot another movie. Are you ready as the producer?"
"Movie?"
Upon hearing these two words, Feng Xiaoxia's eyes lit up, and he quickly nodded, saying:
"Mr. Xu, please rest assured, I am ready to start working whenever the company needs me. And is it really a movie?"
Although the success of The Condor Heroes made him realize the level of Mr. Xu in the TV drama industry.
But Feng Xiaoxia still prefers to be a film producer, so he asked a question in return.
Xu Lu nodded and said with a smile:
"That's right, the process of making movies and TV series is a bit too long. We can invest in those later."
But I will probably focus most of my energy on the film industry.
By the way, there will be more than one project going forward; Daxu Culture will likely launch two or more projects simultaneously.
I will direct one of them myself, and I will need to find a director for the other one.
The script was provided by the company. After all, we have quite a few artists in our artist department now, and we can't let them all be idle.
Now that we've signed the contract, we need to give everyone a chance to appear on screen..."
Feng Xiaoxia nodded; he wasn't worried at all about having so many projects.
But then a question suddenly occurred to him, and he asked it somewhat cautiously:
"Mr. Xu, what kind of movie will you be directing this time?"
You should know that this issue really gave Feng Xiaoxia a run for hers when she was planning the last project.
At the time, he thought that Mr. Xu would continue to make comedy films and continue the glory of "Charlotte's Depression".
Who knew that they had no intention of making comedies at all, or even movies, but instead started making TV series.
Although the TV series was ultimately successful, this incident still casts a long shadow over Feng Xiaoxia.
So when he heard that there would be a new project, he was very happy.
But I still left some room for maneuver in my heart.
To prevent Director Xu from suddenly deciding to make some niche film.
I wasn't prepared at all at that time.
Fortunately, Xu Lu quickly said a few words, which greatly relieved Feng Xiaoxia.
"Don't panic, this time I'm going to film a kung fu comedy."
As for the other script, it will also be a comedy, a kind of suspense comedy!
At this point, Feng Xiaoxia was completely relaxed.
comedy!
This is Director Xu's specialty.
Although kung fu comedies have never been made before, Director Xu has directed martial arts TV series, which are much more difficult than kung fu films.
Therefore, combining the two to create a kung fu comedy should be a piece of cake for Director Xu.
Feng Xiaoxia will definitely take personal control of this project.
But to be honest, he also really wanted to work on another suspense comedy himself.
But then he thought about how the company had already recruited two 'apprentices' for him, as well as his deputy, Lin Hui.
Moreover, as Mr. Xu just mentioned, the suspense comedy will be directed by another director.
Feng Xiaoxia finally made a decision, and it would be a good opportunity to use this 'suspense comedy' project to train new talent.
Just as Feng Xiaoxia was lost in thought, Xu Lu suddenly spoke up:
"By the way, this kung fu comedy we're filming this time needs a rather special location. I reckon there isn't one in the film studios, so we'll need to find someone to build one ourselves..."
ah?
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaoxia paused for a moment, then showed a surprised expression.
As a producer, he certainly knew that building something like this would require a significant investment.
But since it was Mr. Xu who made the request, he didn't directly try to dissuade him, but instead asked:
"Mr. Xu, this is quite an expense. Do we really need to build it ourselves?"
"It won't cost too much, a few million will be enough, and it's necessary, as most of my movies will be filmed here."
Xu Lu began to explain.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaoxia nodded without saying anything more.
Since it's not more than ten million, there's no need for me to worry about it too much.
He was actually worried that Mr. Xu would spend tens of millions to build filming locations, since such a thing was entirely possible for Mr. Xu.
So when Feng Xiaoxia heard that the cost was only a few million, he felt that it was nothing.
A few million? That's nothing!
Soon, Xu Lu handed a sketch to Feng Xiaoxia and said:
"Go find the relevant people later and have this filming location built for me this morning."
When Feng Xiaoxia took a look, he discovered that the drawing depicted a building with a very old feel.
There are eight layers in total, and they are incredibly lifelike.
Even though he didn't know much about the construction industry, he instantly understood what Mr. Xu really wanted.
"No wonder Mr. Xu said a few million would be enough. It's just an eight-story building; it really doesn't cost much."
Creating a vintage feel might actually cost a bit more.
Moreover, I had heard before that Mr. Xu was a highly skilled painter, and now I've finally witnessed it for myself!
Feng Xiaoxia thought to himself.
Seeing that Xu Lu on the other end of the line didn't seem inclined to speak further, he finally asked the most crucial question:
"Mr. Xu, what are the names of our two projects this time?"
Xu Lu didn't hesitate at all and said directly:
“My project is called ‘Kung Fu’, and another one is called ‘Crazy Stone’.”
Feng Xiaoxia nodded.
He thought to himself, "This name does continue Mr. Xu's tendency to leave people scratching their heads."
Kung Fu comedy should just be called Kung Fu; only a god would know exactly what Mr. Xu is planning to film.
As for 'Crazy Stone'... well, could it be that a stone has come to life?
Why not call it a stone that has become a spirit?
Feng Xiaoxia probably doesn't know that in the world Xu Lu traveled to, there really was a story about a stone that became a spirit and wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace...
Meanwhile, our CEO Xu, who just defeated two masters, has already thrown himself into the production of his next film.
Needless to say, he wrote the script and everything himself.
Fortunately, the memory capsule was still working, so he only needed to turn the plot back into a script. Moreover, there was also the voice-to-text method, so it didn't take too much effort.
What Mr. Xu didn't expect was that he himself didn't take defeating the two masters seriously.
However, those within the modern poetry circle felt deeply insulted, and so, the true masters finally stepped forward.
