"What? Daxu Culture submitted a film for an anti-gambling public service announcement titled 'God of Gamblers'? Are they crazy?!"
The young man, 'Brother Min,' was shocked upon receiving the news.
Although they signed up for this kind of public welfare project, they didn't intend to put much effort into the content of the film; they just went through the motions.
But I've never seen a company like Daxu Culture that's so perfunctory, starting with the title.
"Does that guy surnamed Xu even understand the rules? He named his anti-gambling film 'God of Gamblers'."
Holy crap, this is absolutely outrageous! Hahaha, I have to say, it's absolutely hilarious!
Min couldn't help but burst into laughter.
At the same time, he breathed a huge sigh of relief, and his previous worries vanished completely.
In this situation, let alone the fact that he has connections on the judging panel, the kind that can be of great help.
Even if he had no connections, just based on the title of Da Xu Culture, "Brother Min" was confident of winning.
Even if the films he produces are inferior in quality and content to the other party, at least they will be 'pure and righteous'.
Unlike Da Xu Culture, which is simply outrageous!
"Brother Min, what was that guy surnamed Xu thinking? He actually came up with such a title. It's really shocking!"
The young man from before was also there, and he sighed.
"Brother Min" nodded and said with a smile:
"Who cares? The more they court death, the better it will be for us. A gambling god? Hahaha, it's amazing that guy surnamed Xu could come up with such a thing!"
Upon hearing this, the man who had spoken earlier echoed:
"Yes, that's why the saying 'a trade is like a mountain' is so true."
That guy surnamed Xu might make movies that make a lot of money at the box office, but he can forget about winning awards for public welfare projects like this.
"It's us again! We thought we had a formidable opponent, but it turns out they've crippled themselves."
"Alright, since that kid has chosen his own path to ruin, he's no longer worth our attention."
Our planned "Returning to the Right Path" segment is about to begin filming. While we don't need to worry too much about the quality, it just needs to be there!
"It's a deep voice," Min said.
...
On the other hand, Director Zhao Fu, who had been paying close attention to this matter, was somewhat speechless at this moment.
"God of Gamblers?" He muttered these two words to himself, shaking his head helplessly.
Previously, he had hoped to regain some confidence through Director Xu, but now it seems that this plan has completely failed.
Zhao Fu was very clear about this.
Since Da Xu Culture dared to name the film 'God of Gamblers', it means they weren't even aiming for any awards.
Or rather, it wasn't to fulfill any obligation, nor was it to flatter anyone.
The title 'God of Gamblers' itself reveals that director Hui is still prioritizing box office success.
Since box office performance is a consideration, Zhao Fu doesn't believe that Director Xu will make a mistake.
It's worth noting that since his debut, he has never made a movie that lost money.
What's terrifying is that the films produced by Daxu Culture are only categorized as either "explosive" or "super explosive".
The word "flop," which countless directors fear, doesn't even exist in their dictionary.
"In the end, they were still too young, thinking that Director Xu had lost his mind this time."
But to our surprise, Director Xu was quite clear-headed, while we, the ones who wanted to watch the show, were completely fooled!
Zhao Fu sighed:
"Perhaps the film industry is really not for me anymore. Besides, as long as Xu Lu is in the industry, I don't have the courage to continue directing films. It's time to quit!"
...
In fact.
The news that Daxu Culture is preparing a "God of Gamblers" movie has sparked much discussion among industry insiders and netizens.
"Well, I feel like I've been fooled by Director Xu again this time, 'God of Gamblers'... hahahaha!"
"Yes, I originally thought that Director Xu was changing his approach this time, or that he had other purposes."
But now it seems they only have one goal: box office revenue; everything else is secondary.
"To be honest, just hearing the words 'God of Gamblers' has already made me very interested in this new series."
I suddenly feel a bit puzzled. Why hasn't anyone come up with a title like this before? It's really strange.
"A film with two main characters—this is probably Director Xu's first time trying this type of film. I'm quite looking forward to it!"
...
"I heard that Wang Zuxian, who played the role in 'A Chinese Ghost Story' last time, is the female lead in a new drama again. It seems that Director Xu is going to give her a big push."
"Wang Zuxian was outstanding, okay? I think the role of Xiaoqian alone is a classic."
"That's right. Director Xu's eye for talent is truly impeccable."
Last time I thought casting Liu Yifei or Dilraba as the female lead would be good, but in the end I realized that Director Xu's choice of Wang Zuxian was a better fit for the character in the drama.
"I wonder how they cast the two male leads this time. I heard that Director Xu is one of them, but I don't know who the other one is?"
...
In fact, people within Daxu Culture were also very curious about this matter.
There is now a consensus that as long as you act in Director Xu's movies, fame is inevitable and becoming popular is a matter of course.
This new drama features two male leads, which explains its immense appeal to those artists.
However, probably no one could have imagined that our CEO Xu would make a decision that would leave everyone speechless.
