"Xiao Yu, I heard you're here for work. Uncle Li just happens to have something to discuss with you!" At this moment, a voice that surprised everyone came from outside the recording studio.
After all, how many people in all of Tianxing Entertainment dared to speak to Su Yu like that?
Even Director Li Dayue, the music director, only called Su Yu by his first name, while others generally called him "Teacher Su Yu" to show respect.
But this "Xiao Yu" was too intimate, wasn't it? And he even referred to himself as "Uncle Li"!
Could this be Su Yu's elder? He hadn't heard of any relatives of Su Yu in the company.
However, when they saw who the person was, they all fell silent.
This person truly had the right to call Su Yu that, because the newcomer was none other than Li Xing, Director Li, one of the company's major shareholders.
"Director Li!" Li Dayue and Chen Yixun in the recording studio both greeted him, and their gazes towards Su Yu also underwent some subtle changes.
"Director Li, Chen Gewang, you two continue recording. I'm leaving first." Su Yu nodded to Li Xing, gave an instruction, and then left with Li Xing.
Actually, Su Yu was also a bit confused. He couldn't imagine what urgent matter Li Xing would have to look for him at this time. It seemed he hadn't heard of any major events happening at the company?
After they arrived at Li Xing's office and sat down, Li Xing spoke again: "It's like this, last month, the movie 'Divine Dragon' that Tianxing invested in and filmed flopped. It cost 220 million to produce, but only grossed 420 million at the box office, a huge loss. So, the company plans to launch a new film project. After discussion by the Film and Television Department, they've set their sights on your 'Chu Liuxiang Legend'. The two parts you've finished writing are actually very suitable for adaptation into a movie. Of course, you'll naturally need to be responsible for the adaptation. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yu indeed felt it was a big deal. But adapting 'Chu Liuxiang Legend' into a movie?
Well, Su Yu really hadn't thought of it that way!
After all, Gu Long's works only become popular after being heavily modified, such as 'The Legendary Siblings', 'little li flying dagger', 'Xiao Shiyi Lang', 'Wulin Waishi', and so on.
If they were filmed according to the original, they would all flop one after another! This was a well-known fact.
It was as if Gu Long's works had no market unless they were heavily modified.
Moreover, Su Yu only planned to turn this novel into a TV series and had no intention of bringing it to the big screen. He was also afraid of it flopping.
【Ding! Detecting that the host is facing a choice, providing two options for the host.
Option one: Agree to Li Xing's request. The host will receive the revised route for the movie version of "Chu Liuxiang Legend: The Great Desert";
Option two: Reject Li Xing's request to adapt "chu liuxiang legend" into a movie. The host will receive a random movie script.】
Just as Su Yu was struggling, the system's voice sounded in his mind.
Well, he had triggered the system's options for the second time! The last time was about the adaptation of the "little li flying dagger" script.
After putting on a thoughtful expression, Su Yu said to the system in his mind, "I choose two!"
Well, he still didn't plan to challenge the film adaptation of "chu liuxiang legend".
【Congratulations to the host for obtaining the movie script: "lost in thailand"】
When he heard the name of this script, memories related to this movie directly appeared in Su Yu's mind.
This was a movie from Earth in 2012, starring Xu Lang, Wang Bao, and Gao Bo. It was indeed a very excellent and popular movie, and it seemed to be the box office champion in Earth's 2012, with box office exceeding 1 billion!
The system had randomly given him a hit movie script!
No, even if this movie script were to be filmed, he would have to participate in the investment, otherwise, he would suffer a huge loss.
Su Yu looked up at Li Xing: "Uncle Li, I only plan to make 'Chu Liuxiang Legend' into a TV series. As for adapting it into a movie, let's forget it. It's a bit outdated. However..."
Hearing Su Yu's direct refusal, Li Xing also felt helpless.
He also felt that adapting it into a movie would be very risky, and the audience might not buy it in the end, but they didn't have any good scripts at hand right now.
Moreover, after the incident on the first, Giant Shark, Starlight, and Ocean were clearly holding grudges and had already issued a statement in music and film and television, forcing some small companies and individual studios to choose between them and Tianxing Entertainment.
So, Tianxing's current situation was a bit awkward. Although Tianxing wasn't afraid of these, and even saw a significant increase in its stock after the great victory of "Foam", it would be difficult to get good scripts in a short period of time.
"But what?" However, Su Yu's words clearly had a twist, Li Xing pressed.
"Although the Chu Liuxiang series cannot be filmed, other movies can! I actually have a comedy movie script I wrote before. Uncle Li, would you like to take a look?" Su Yu said with a smile.
And Li Xing's face lit up with surprise when he heard Su Yu's words.
They had all witnessed Su Yu's creative ability. They felt that the TV series script for "little li flying dagger" was very well adapted.
Now that Su Yu even said he had written other scripts, Li Xing felt a sense of renewed hope.
He just didn't know how good Su Yu was at writing comedy scripts, because if a comedy wasn't funny, then it was just too funny!
"See! Absolutely must see! Xiao Yu, you print out a few copies first, and I'll have people from the Film and Television Department come over to look at them together."
After Li Xing excitedly agreed, he directly dialed the phone of the Director of the Film and Television Department, asking him to bring professional people up with him.
Soon, Ren Nanbei, the Director of the Film and Television Department, came up with a director and two screenwriters from the Film and Television Department.
Ren Nanbei's heart filled with joy when he saw that Su Yu was also here.
As the Director of the Film and Television Department, he knew Su Yu's identity.
However, the others who came up with him didn't know. They only knew that Su Yu was currently the most popular lyricist and composer at Tianxing Entertainment!
He heard that he had a very good relationship with the higher-ups and was someone not to be provoked.
At this moment, Su Yu had already printed out several copies of the script and then casually distributed them to the people present.
"This is a comedy script written by Su Yu. See if it can be filmed." After Li Xing dropped this sentence, he was the first to lower his head and read.
Although the others had some doubts about Su Yu's ability, they still honestly started reading. Since Director Li had spoken, how dared they feign compliance?
However, not long after, the sound of people stifling their laughter echoed repeatedly in Li Xing's office.
Well, if Director Li, the Vice President, hadn't been present, these people would probably have laughed even more wildly and unrestrainedly, right?
Tens of minutes later, the script was finished. Ren Nanbei and the others exchanged glances, and finally, Ren Nanbei spoke.
"The script is full of jokes, many of the gags are very novel, and the most valuable thing is that it's not awkward! There are no major flaws either! If suitable comedy actors are invited to star, this will be a very good comedy movie. Whether it can sell well is hard to say, but it should not lose money... It can be filmed!"
After a long analysis, Ren Nanbei came to the conclusion that it could be filmed.
