Feng Xiaoxia walked out of 'General Manager Xu's' office with a rather dejected expression, which was quite out of place in the company's overall cheerful atmosphere.
And as everyone knows, Producer Feng went in to discuss the next film with President Xu, so someone asked at this moment:
"Brother Feng, has our next movie been decided yet? It'll still be a comedy, right?"
Before Feng Xiaoxia could answer, someone next to him spoke up:
"It's definitely a comedy, no doubt about it. Our Daxu Culture is famous for comedies, what else would we make?"
"That's true. From 'Xu Dalu's Boring Life' which we used as practice at the beginning, to 'Xia Luo's Depressing Moment' which went viral online, we have some confidence in comedy."
"If you ask me, with 'Charlotte' as a foundation, the next comedy is guaranteed to gross 1 billion yuan. I hope it can climb even higher and challenge for the top spot in the annual box office."
"Just a few months ago, our Daxu Culture was virtually unknown, but now, we're probably getting a lot of attention from people in the industry."
"Hey, Brother Feng, you don't look too happy. Is something wrong?"
Finally, someone noticed that Feng Xiaoxia's expression was not quite right.
Logically speaking, Feng Xiaoxia, as the only person to receive the top reward of two million yuan, should be in a very good mood.
Moreover, the company is about to start the next phase of its work, so he should maintain the most positive attitude.
But in fact, even a fool could see that Feng Xiaoxia looked gloomy at this moment.
Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him, Feng Xiaoxia finally sighed and said:
"It's nothing, it's just that the company's next project isn't a comedy..."
Before he could even finish speaking, just hearing this half-sentence was enough to leave everyone speechless with shock:
"What? We're not making comedies anymore? Why? 'Charlotte' set such a good precedent."
"Exactly! If we strike while the iron is hot, a billion-dollar box office is a sure thing. Others will be envious!"
"Brother Feng, if you're not making comedies, what kind of drama is President Xu planning to make? Action/martial arts?"
"Oh, if that's the case, then we can look forward to it. Our CEO Xu is a martial arts expert."
...
Without letting everyone speculate, Feng Xiaoxia finally said the second half of what he was about to say:
"No, Mr. Xu has decided that the company's next project will be a TV series, not a movie!"
Upon hearing this, everyone around fell silent.
After a long while, someone finally spoke up in confusion:
"Brother Feng, you must have misheard me, right?"
"Our movie just became a huge hit, how could we possibly make a TV series out of it?"
"Yeah, and besides, not many people watch TV dramas these days, so they don't make any money at all!"
"However, if it's a comedy, it might not be a bad idea either; we have experience in that area..."
"Brother Feng, has President Xu specified what kind of TV series he wants to film?"
...
People around him asked questions all at once, and it was clear that everyone didn't understand the decision.
Seeing this, Feng Xiaoxia suddenly took a deep breath and said:
"Alright, everyone, stop complaining. Since President Xu said he wanted to make a TV series, he must have his reasons."
What we all need to do next is support and dedicate ourselves to the company's next project.
He paused for a moment, then continued:
"The next TV series the company will be filming will be a martial arts drama, so everyone should prepare accordingly."
In particular, regarding the aspects of Taoism, clothing, and cosmetics, preliminary work on this subject should be carried out in a timely manner…
...
The news that 'Daxu Culture' was preparing to film a martial arts TV series spread like wildfire within half a day.
Those who learned of this news were all quite surprised.
After all, the currently popular movie 'Charlotte' is still showing in theaters.
Although daily box office revenue has gradually declined, the total box office revenue is already approaching 1.5 billion yuan.
With such a good start.
No one expected that Daxu Culture would abandon movies and turn its attention to TV series instead.
Of course, everyone reacted differently after their initial surprise.
On Xia Lifei Film and Television's side, Xiong Tang, Zhou Yu, and others were in a very sorry state during this period.
'Happy Summer Tour' flopped at the box office and was forced to be taken off the screens shortly after its release.
Unfortunately, their intended rival, "Charlotte's Depression," saw its box office soar, directly achieving a box office of one billion.
For Xiong Tang and his associates, this was practically a blatant slap in the face.
Fortunately, after waiting for so many days, we have finally heard some good news.
"He's gotten arrogant! That kid Xu Lu has definitely gotten arrogant! Making a martial arts drama, what a stupid decision!"
Zhou Yu laughed heartily, feeling that the gloom on his body had dissipated considerably.
Originally, he was aiming to emulate Xu Lu.
However, after Xia Luote's frustrating outburst, Zhou Yu no longer dared to compare himself to her.
But to his surprise, that kid named Xu Lu actually wanted to make a TV series. Wasn't that lowering his status?
"Great! Once that kid's TV series goes unnoticed, his popularity will definitely plummet. That's wonderful!"
With these thoughts in mind, Zhou Yu felt a renewed fighting spirit.
His former boss, Xiong Tang, was stunned for a moment after hearing the news, but then breathed a sigh of relief.
During this period, he was under tremendous pressure from the company's board of directors.
