In Yuan Long's heart, if Hua Qiang or Li Shoucheng had said this, he would have definitely felt that it was just insincere politeness.
But these words came from Su Yu!
In the entertainment industry, everyone knows that Su Yu always keeps his word and honors his promises.
Whatever he says or promises will surely be put into practice.
At the Golden Melody Awards, Su Yu promised Fei Qing a collaboration, and not long after, their duet "a thousand miles away" burst onto the scene!
He promised to collaborate with Liu Furong on a movie, and then the highly successful "hidden war" was presented to the audience!
These legendary deeds of Su Yu have long been widely circulated in the entertainment industry.
Therefore, even a big name like Yuan Long could hardly suppress his inner excitement at this moment.
Since Yuan Long returned from Hollywood with a setback and quietly came back to develop in China, his heart has been filled with a strong desire for transformation.
During his time in Hollywood, although he put in a lot of effort, he failed to achieve the expected glory, and reluctantly, he had to return to his familiar homeland, trying to find a new direction for his acting career.
However, his image as a comedy action star in the past had already been deeply imprinted in the audience's hearts.
Those hilarious performances made him synonymous with comedy action stars in public perception.
The difficulty of breaking this inherent impression and achieving a magnificent transformation is imaginable.
Every time he tried a new type of role, audiences would unconsciously associate him with his past comedic image, which undoubtedly set up numerous obstacles for Yuan Long's transformation path.
Furthermore, with the relentless passage of time, Yuan Long is now getting on in years.
His once agile movements and abundant physical strength are no longer what they used to be.
He feels increasingly powerless in front of roles that require high-intensity action scenes.
After all, "slaughtering all sides" on the screen requires a strong physique as support, and he has long passed the age where he could freely sweat and shed blood, no longer able to display high-difficulty action scenes in front of the camera as he did when he was young.
What's more, today's entertainment market is no longer what it used to be, with young audiences becoming the main force of consumption.
These young people, who grew up in the new era, have completely different aesthetic preferences and entertainment needs.
They have little interest in Yuan Long, this somewhat weathered "old man," continuing to perform intense fight scenes on screen.
They are more inclined to pursue film and television works and actors that are full of youthful vitality and trendy elements.
In such a market environment, Yuan Long's acting career development faces unprecedented difficulties.
But if he can get help from Su Yu, the situation might undergo earth-shattering changes.
Su Yu is like a dazzling star in the entertainment industry, possessing extraordinary influence and outstanding talent.
Take the Hollywood actor Kerry as an example; before collaborating with Su Yu, Kerry's acting career was in a bottleneck period, with a slightly sluggish development trend.
However, when he had the good fortune to participate in the filming of "the truman show" and "this man comes from blue star," directed by Su Yu, the wheels of fate began to turn.
These two works, with their unique plots and exquisite production, attracted widespread attention and enthusiastic responses upon their release.
Kerry's wonderful performance in them particularly impressed the audience, successfully helping him break free from his previous image constraints and achieve a magnificent transformation.
He not only returned to the peak of his acting career, favored by many directors and producers, but his value also doubled like a rocket, gaining both fame and fortune, becoming an enviable figure in the entertainment industry.
Of course, at this time, Yuan Long did not know that Su Yu had already meticulously prepared a brand new script for Kerry in secret.
Su Yu harbors a grand plan in his heart; he hopes to help Kerry win the International Film Festival Best Actor award through this movie.
If Yuan Long were to know this news, his face, squeezed with wrinkles from ecstasy, would probably become even more pronounced, making it difficult to hide his inner excitement and longing.
As soon as Yuan Long left, Xu Ke impatiently walked up to Su Yu, his expression full of anticipation and respect, and eagerly said:
"Director Su! The script you asked me to adapt last time is basically finished now. After the launch conference, do you want to find some time to sit down and take a look?"
As soon as these words came out, the scene instantly erupted like a pot boiling over, causing an uproar.
It was originally rumored that Xu Ke and Su Yu had fallen out, but now it seems that this rumor was false.
Only then did everyone realize that it was no wonder Xu Ke had been staying indoors during this time; it turned out he was diligently working on the script.
For many media and paparazzi, today's big news came one after another, making them almost crazy with excitement, their inner exhilaration like a volcano about to erupt, hard to suppress.
"I'm not leaving until tomorrow, so let's do it tonight!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yu was also curious about the script adapted by Xu Ke, wanting to see what it had been rewritten into, so he nodded in agreement without hesitation.
The two beautiful female hosts watched Xu Ke and his wife leave before cautiously yet eagerly turning their gaze to Su Yu and the other two.
Although they were not clear about Su Yu's true identity and status, they were by no means foolish.
Seeing even the big shots from Xiangjiang being so humble and low-key in front of Su Yu, they couldn't help but wonder if it was merely because of Su Yu's extraordinary talent?
Out of this caution, when they communicated with Su Yu, their words became exceptionally careful and prudent, weighing every word repeatedly, fearing that a slight mistake might displease Su Yu.
After all, they were just red carpet hosts and dared not ask too many sensitive questions rashly.
Moreover, in a while, there would be hundreds of media and reporters waiting to interview Su Yu, and they didn't want to be the first to cause unnecessary trouble.
Subsequently, Su Yu, Liu Furong, and Jacky Cheung came to the signature wall, picked up pens, solemnly signed their names, and then walked into the main venue.
At this time, the main venue was already packed with people and bustling with activity.
Half were celebrity artists from Xiangjiang, dressed in magnificent costumes, shining with a unique glow in the crowd;
The other half were media and reporters who had rushed from home and abroad upon hearing the news, holding their cameras and revealing a keenness and eagerness for news in their eyes.
At this moment, the big bosses of Huaxia Star, Tianshen Entertainment, Haiyang, and Qunxing companies were already seated on the stage.
Seeing Su Yu walk into the venue, the four of them quickly stood up, greeted him with smiling faces, and warmly shook hands with Su Yu.
Especially the bosses of Haiyang and Qunxing companies, this was their first time seeing Su Yu in person, and the emotions in their eyes were quite complex.
Recalling when Su Yu first emerged, they were somehow possessed and didn't sign Su Yu at all costs.
If only they had been less calculating and more farsighted back then, perhaps an entertainment company with a market value exceeding 250 billion today would have been theirs.
Unfortunately, time cannot be reversed, and there are not so many "what ifs" in the world.
