"Xu Lu, you've really made a name for yourself in the industry this time! You've managed to have two blockbusters released in the US in a row. That's impressive!"
The voice on the other end of the phone was that of Boss Yang, who had called specifically to offer his congratulations.
Xu Lu smiled and said, "A little bit of fame, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning, hahahaha!"
Boss Yang directly saw through the guy's feigned politeness, laughing and scolding:
"You're pretending it's nothing, but you're probably getting all cocky."
By the way, Xu Lu, what were you thinking when you decided to make a sequel to Iron Man?
I was shocked! You're probably the first person in the entire film and television industry to do something like this!
"Well, actually, I didn't just make a sequel, I even made a sequel to Iron Man, and it's just waiting to be released!"
Mr. Yang, the other party's boss, was not an outsider, so Xu Lu spoke frankly.
Upon hearing this, the person on the other end was so frightened that they fell silent.
It took Mr. Yang a while to come to his senses, and he said incredulously:
"Xu Lu, you're not kidding me, are you? You've made three Iron Man movies in a row? This...this..."
For a moment, Mr. Yang didn't know what to say.
She was already incredibly surprised when she learned there was a sequel to Iron Man, thinking Xu Lu was really bold.
They dare to make a sequel before even knowing how well it will do at the box office.
But now she realizes that she underestimated the courage of the guy on the other side.
They not only made a sequel, but they've made a third one.
I doubt anyone would believe this if I told them!
"Actually, it's nothing much. I just wanted to save trouble and simply film all three parts."
To avoid wasting time and effort by making and releasing one film after another, there's no need for that!
Xu Lu shared his thoughts.
Mr. Yang took a deep breath and said, "Aren't you worried that it won't do well at the box office? Wouldn't the next two movies have been made for nothing?"
Xu Lu smiled upon hearing this.
The movies I chose were all proven to be good films on Earth in my previous life, at least in terms of box office performance.
Although Iron Man is an adaptation, there's not much to worry about regarding its box office performance overall.
Of course, these things couldn't be said to Boss Yang.
Xu Lu could only smile and say:
"Well, it didn't flop at the box office, and besides, making all three movies together reduced the cost, so it can be considered a cost-saving measure."
"I really don't know what you're thinking."
But you've really given our Great Xia film and television industry something to be proud of this time, going all the way to the US to make money!
Mr. Yang sighed, then suddenly added:
"It's just a bit of a pity. If I had known, I would have shamelessly asked you for a role."
Now that girl Dilraba is bragging to me that her movie is being shown on 'Halo'.
"This is no big deal. Mr. Yang, just ask and I'll find you a good role right away. Then you won't have to envy that girl Dilraba."
Xu Lu said confidently.
"Really? You've already made three Iron Man movies, what roles could you possibly give me?!"
Hearing Xu Lu say this, Boss Yang was actually quite tempted.
Although she is considered a top actress in the TV drama industry of Daxia, she still has little resistance to the phrase "there are no superstars in the world".
Moreover, there are only a handful of celebrities with any real fame in the entire Great Xia region right now, so the quality of their talent is quite high.
Xu Lu laughed and said:
“Mr. Yang, you underestimate me. What you said earlier is right! I did film all three Iron Man movies, but does that mean I can only film Iron Man?”
"Can't I make another 'Captain America'? Can't I make another 'Avengers'? Can't I make another 'Spider-Man'? Can't I make another 'X-Men' series?"
After hearing what he said, Mr. Yang was completely stunned.
For a moment, she couldn't tell whether Xu Lu was joking or telling her the truth.
If it was just a joke, then why did the other person's words sound so serious, even including the name of a movie?
But if it's not a joke, then it's even more terrifying. Does this guy already have so many movies in the works?
While Boss Yang was still in a daze, Xu Lu said directly:
"How about it, Mr. Yang? If you're interested, I'll prepare a good role for you."
"We can walk the red carpet at 'Haolaw' then, it's not a big deal, is it?"
That last sentence was what truly moved Mr. Yang:
"Okay, then I'll have to rely on you in the future, Director Xu. Of course, I'll be very unhappy if I can't walk the red carpet at 'Haolaiwu'!"
"What are you saying? It's just walking the red carpet, it's no big deal."
Xu Lu laughed and said:
"Don't be fooled by how arrogant those 'Haolaiwu' gang seem in front of others; they're really just like that..."
"Alright, stop joking around. I have things to do here. I'll listen to your nonsense another time!"
Mr. Yang said, somewhat speechless.
"Okay then, let's talk again later!" Xu Lu hung up the phone, somewhat reluctant to end the conversation.
...
Two days later.
As previously announced by Daxu Culture, 'Iron Man 2' was released simultaneously in China and the United States.
Oh, so it's just a nominal simultaneous release; in reality, it was released half a day earlier in the Chinese market.
Because the United States is located in the other hemisphere.
