Chen Xu listened for a while and realized that they were the producers of an animated film and were here to check the production progress. He did not stay here to disturb them, but said something to Chen Chao and left.

Chen Chao talked about business for a while, and suddenly asked, "Which company wants to attract investment recently?"

"Why, Mr. Chen wants to invest too? Then invest in us, we are in need."

"I don't have that kind of capital. It's my friend who wants to find a new project to invest in. Do you know anyone?"

"Consider us. We only need to invest another 10 million to make it perfect. Besides, we will release it next year, so the investment cycle is short."

Chen Chao said, "I can't do anything about this. I can only give you some advice. I can't guarantee whether it will work or not. After all, they specifically want to do a new project."

After hearing what he said, those people asked him to help them put in a good word for them. Then he mentioned the names of a few people and left their contact information.

Two of them were people he had worked with before. He didn't have a good impression of them. They always tried to lower the price, but their demands were high, which gave him a headache. However, such candidates met Chen Xu's requirements.

Chen Chao himself works in this field, and he knows very well that in order to make good special effects for a movie, one must first be willing to spend money, and second, have the spirit of pursuing perfection. Fine products are created over time.

So he called the two people separately. Coincidentally, one of them was in the same city, so he immediately called Chen Xu.

…………

In the afternoon, Chen Xu met the director surnamed Huang in a coffee shop. He looked very young, probably less than 30 years old, and was quite cheerful.

"This is the script I wrote, along with the main character designs and some storyboards."

Director Huang took out the laptop he carried with him, opened it and showed it to them.

I have to say that he did a lot of preparation, designed the characters very carefully, and even had sketches of the main scenes.

After Chen Xu finished reading the character designs, he went back to read the script. After a while, he said, "Your script is a little different from the mythological stories."

"Yes, I used characters from mythological stories to recreate the film," Director Huang explained. "After all, the mythological stories that have been passed down are too different from modern values. If I copy them, it will be difficult for the audience to resonate with them emotionally."

What he wanted to film was the story of Yang Jian.

From the Monkey King, White Snake, to Ne Chi a few years ago, several animated films have been box office successes. Practitioners seem to have seen the road to success and have set their sights on Yang Jian.

Chen Xu chatted with him for more than half an hour and felt that it was okay. The main reason was that he trusted Chen Chao and he would not introduce some unreliable people to him.

Finally, he left Director Huang’s contact information and arranged to meet again in a few days.

No matter what, Yunxu is Luo Xiyun's company. The most he can do is provide some suggestions, but she still has to make the decisions.

After leaving the cafe, Chen Xu asked Chen Chao what project the other person was preparing.

Chen Chao said, "The Legend of Swordsman of Shu Mountain."

"The audience seems a bit narrow." As far as Chen Xu remembers, this novel has been adapted into TV and movies, both in Hong Kong, and it seems that it has never been filmed in mainland China.

"It's not that there is no basis at all. There are so many people reading online novels nowadays, so there must be a lot of people who know this novel. As long as it is well filmed, it will definitely attract a lot of viewers."

"It would be better to just adapt the most popular online novels."

"It's not easy. It's not easy to get the copyright. The most popular ones have basically been bought out."

"You are quite clear about these things."

"Hehe, actually, I have written online articles before, but I updated too slowly and they failed miserably."

………………

Luo Xiyun was sitting alone in the living room. When she saw him, she came over and took his hand.

He asked, "Is grandma asleep?"

"Yeah." Luo Xiyun leaned her head on his shoulder and said, "After they had dinner, they all went out."

These few days, they had a rare chance to spend time alone together. He hugged her and sat on the sofa, talking about Chen Chao and Director Huang. At the end, he said, "Go meet them when you go back in a few days."

Luo Xiyun listened quietly, and waited until he finished speaking before he softly responded, "Yeah."

She whispered, "Have I neglected you these days?"

"It's rare for you to come back, so of course you should spend more time with the old man. We will have plenty of time in the future." Chen Xu held her hand tightly, "If you really feel bad, just make it up to me when you return."

Luo Xiyun didn't say anything, but scratched his palm with his fingers.

After a while, she said, "Let's go back tomorrow. I have something to deal with at the company."

"Is it serious?"

She shook her head. "A foreign game company came to seek cooperation, but Secretary Guo couldn't make up his mind. I have to go back."

"What about your grandmother?"

"I've already told her." Luo Xiyun looked a little reluctant and said, "Chen Xu, can we come back more often in the future?"

"Okay, whenever you want to come back, I'll be with you."

The two of them sat on the sofa, snuggling together.

"By the way, my younger brother will also come with us this time. He will stay at my place for a few days." Luo Xiyun thought of something and said, "You know, my aunt and my uncle don't get along well. She doesn't want my younger brother to stay here."

Chen Xu knew that Fang Huiwen did not quite agree with her son returning to China, but Zhang Yixuan's attitude was very firm, and this was most likely a condition she proposed.

If Zhang Yixuan moved into Luo Xiyun's house, it would be like having an extra light bulb. Chen Xu was naturally not happy about it, but he couldn't show it.

He said, "I noticed that the relationship between your aunt and your grandmother has improved a lot in the past few days. Why is it still like this?"

Luo Xiyun couldn't help but sigh when talking about this, "Grandma and my aunt are both too stubborn, and neither of them is willing to take the initiative to reconcile. It has been dragging on like this, and it has been hard for my uncle-in-law, who is stuck in the middle."

Chen Xu asked, "Are they leaving too?"

"They are on the flight the day after tomorrow. Now that they are gone, I don't know when they can truly reconcile."

Chen Xu couldn't help but think of Xi Yun. They had a breakup last time. If it weren't for the virtual dream device, they would probably have ended up like this.

It's better to suffer in life than to save face.

At times like this, someone needs to break the deadlock.

He rolled his eyes and said, "I have an idea."
