Chapter 265 Next Steps
Liang Jiafeng observed William for a long time, and he had to say that William's image and temperament were both excellent, which was rare in the current film market.
Liang Jiafeng already had inspiration in his mind. He believed that the role of the male protagonist would be more rounded and more masculine under his pen.
"There are two more." Hu Xiaoxiao mentioned Ren Xiwen and Zou Xianhai, asking Liang Jiafeng to give them more scenes. Ren Xiwen was a good actor and handsome, so Hu Xiaoxiao decided to let him play the handsome and bad villain.
Zou Xianhai is a martial artist and good at fighting, so Hu Xiaoxiao decided to let him play the heroine's senior brother, and there is a very exciting fighting scene.
Hu Xiaoxiao has always admired people who are willing to make progress and work hard, especially those who are willing to endure hardships with her, so she must add more scenes.
Liang Jiafeng took a pen and paper and wrote down everything Hu Xiaoxiao had told him. "No problem, I'll add it right away."
The two characters of Ren Xiwen and Zou Xianhai already existed, and they only needed to enrich the plot. Only the male protagonist had more changes.
But it doesn't affect the overall direction of the script. After all, the male protagonist is just a vase, a foil to the female protagonist. The important plot and exciting scenes are all with the female protagonist. As long as the female protagonist does not move, it doesn't matter what the others do.
William was also very sharp. He knew that he was there to be a vase, so he took the initiative to discuss with Liang Jiafeng which angle he looked more handsome...
After securing the male lead, the script was almost completed. Hu Xiaoxiao chose a director who was good at action movies, had a historical record, and had no recent films to shoot, and asked Li Huishan to persuade him to take on this film.
The movie belongs to Luo Sheng, they can't just do nothing.
With Li Huishan's intervention, director Du Qian had no choice but to accept the role even though he didn't want to.
After receiving the unfinished preliminary script, Du Qian read it and unexpectedly found it to be quite good. The script was very well written, the subject matter was novel, but the content was the action movie that the public loved today.
But, can a movie of this scale be made with just one million?
Du Qian took the script to Hu Xiaoxiao and said, "Ms. Hu, you didn't give me the wrong script, did you? This script can't be filmed without seven or eight million."
Seven or eight million dollars does not include the lead actress's salary. If the film's salary is added, the amount would be far more than this.
Hu Xiaoxiao glanced at the script and said, "Yes, it's this script. I found it from your company's inventory, but I found another screenwriter to rewrite it."
Du Qian thought Hu Xiaoxiao didn't understand, so he reminded her: "But your investment is only one million, you can't make it."
Hu Xiaoxiao simply asked him, "Director Du, just tell me, what do you think of this script?"
"The script is good." Du Qian admitted that the script was of high quality. If Hu Xiaoxiao couldn't shoot it, the company could buy it back and reshoot it.
Hu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Since Director Du said it's good, he must be confident in the script. Don't worry about the investment, just make sure to film it well. Shoot it the best way you can and give it your all."
Du Qian reminded Hu Xiaoxiao again: "If you want to show my full potential, you need to invest at least another million."
"Don't worry about the money. It will come naturally when the time comes." Hu Xiaoxiao said confidently.
Perhaps Hu Xiaoxiao was too confident. Although Du Qian didn't understand it, he still took the script and began to prepare.
After getting the director on board, Hu Xiaoxiao began his next plan.
She sat on the sofa, scooped a spoonful of the double-skin milk that Sister Xi had just made, took a full bite, and squinted her eyes in enjoyment. Then she flipped through the phone book and found William's contact number.
After the call was connected, Hu Xiaoxiao asked William if he was free. When William on the other end of the phone heard Hu Xiaoxiao's voice, he would make time to come out even if he was not free, and sincerely asked Hu Xiaoxiao if he had any instructions.
"The weather is nice today. I want to go shopping. Please come with me." Hu Xiaoxiao scooped another spoonful of double skin milk.
William on the other end of the phone thought he had heard wrongly. He was silent for a moment and then immediately said, "Okay, where are we going?"
Hu Xiaoxiao said the name of a shopping mall and asked him to wait for her at the mall gate.
After hanging up the phone, Hu Xiaoxiao took another bite of the double skin milk. It was really delicious.
Dong Peiyu, who was reading documents at the side, tried to hold back, but couldn't help herself and pulled over the double skin milk that Sister Xi had prepared for her.
Seeing that Hu Xiaoxiao didn't look satisfied, she took a clean spoon, gave Hu Xiaoxiao half of the food, and then scooped out a spoonful and ate it.
tasty.
So if you want to have a little belly, let it grow, just eat first and worry about it later.
"Xiaoxiao, are you going to the mall with William?" Dong Peiyu said, "Be careful, don't let the paparazzi see you, or you'll be on the headlines tomorrow with a new scandal. Those paparazzi are the worst."
"Sister Dong, you're prejudiced against paparazzi. We're all here for work. Who has an easy job? It's not easy for anyone."
Dong Peiyu looked over in surprise. It was the first time she heard someone from the entertainment industry speaking up for the paparazzi. It sounded a little unreal. "Are you serious?"
"certainly."
After eating double skin milk, Hu Xiaoxiao changed into beautiful clothes, dressed up beautifully, carried a new handbag, and wore jewelry. She looked as dazzling as a superstar.
"Xiaoxiao, you're going shopping dressed like this?"
"Of course you have to look pretty when you go shopping." Hu Xiaoxiao put on sunglasses and high heels, waved to Dong Peiyu, and said, "Sister Dong, you go ahead and get busy. I'm leaving now."
"Oh——" After Hu Xiaoxiao left, Dong Peiyu remembered that she had not yet discussed with Hu Xiaoxiao about finding an office.
As we recruit more and more people in the future, we will need an office space. We can't move everything to Hu Xiaoxiao's house, right?
It would be too inconvenient if I have to hold a meeting or something.
Dong Peiyu mentioned it to Hu Xiaoxiao before, and Hu Xiaoxiao said to wait for her news, but after several days, Hu Xiaoxiao still didn't tell her about the location of the new office.
"Forget it, let's wait until Xiaoxiao comes back." Dong Peiyu turned her attention to the documents in her hands. She had to finish them quickly and get Xiaoxiao to sign them. She still had two full pages of things to do.
William was very surprised that Hu Xiaoxiao asked him to go shopping, but Hu Xiaoxiao is now the boss of the new movie, and she is also a great beauty, so of course he can't refuse the invitation.
He found his most respectable suit and put it on, polished his leather shoes with shoe polish, combed his hair back meticulously with hairspray, and then drove to the mall entrance to wait for Hu Xiaoxiao.
He raised his wrist to check the time. There were still fifteen minutes before the time Hu Xiaoxiao had agreed to meet him, but it was more polite for him to wait for someone than to let Miss Hu wait for him.
So, William, dressed in formal attire, stood waiting at the entrance of the mall, looking handsome and stylish.
His handsome appearance, tall and stylish figure, and gentlemanly and elegant temperament attracted many people to look at him.
I secretly wondered which wealthy family's son this was and why he looked so handsome.
