I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

Lu Ming nodded slightly.

There is actually no need for Zhong Yu to say this.

If Zhong Yu is really not suitable, he will be the first to replace him.

At the same time, Lu Ming also believed in his vision in selecting actors. He was not the kind of director who would choose people randomly.

After dinner, Zhong Yu and the other two got together again to continue reading the script. It was almost twelve o'clock when they finished reading the entire script.

After reading the script, the three people looked dazed, as if they had just woken up from a dream.

At this time, the owner of the rental house was already fast asleep.

This made the three people who had finally recovered and wanted to discuss with Lu Ming just stare at each other.

"Director Lu seems to have fallen asleep." Zhong Yu glanced at the closed bedroom door and spoke.

"Let's go." Xie Youxun put away three scripts bound on A4 paper.

He wants to take this script to his brother to discuss investment.

The three of them left quietly, fearing that their movements would make too much noise and wake Lu Ming up.

But they were obviously overly worried.

Lu Ming had been busy writing scripts these days and had not had a good rest. Today he finally went to bed early, and even if Zhong Yu and the others set off firecrackers outside the bedroom, they could not wake him up.

When I came out of Lu Ming's rental house, it was already early morning.

It was not easy to get a taxi at this time, so Xie Youxun and Cheng Miaoyi sent Zhong Yu home together.

Zhong Yu expressed his gratitude and did not refuse.

Obviously, he himself knew that it was difficult to get a taxi in the middle of the night.

After sending Zhong Yu back, Xie Youxun took Cheng Miaoyi home.

The home where Xie Youxun and Cheng Miaoyi live together is an apartment-style residence.

After parking the car downstairs of the apartment building, Xie Youxun turned on the headlights.

Cheng Miaoyi was a little excited when she just finished reading the script, but now she was starting to feel sleepy.

She quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and prepared to get out of the car. When she opened the door, she found that Xie Youxun was still holding the steering wheel and didn't move at all.

It was only then that she suddenly realized that Xie Youxun did not park the car in the parking space.

Seeing the puzzled look from his girlfriend, Xie Youxun quickly explained, "You go upstairs and sleep first. I'll give the script to my brother."

Cheng Miaoyi blinked.

"Do you know what time it is now?" Cheng Miaoyi asked.

"It's twelve forty." Xie Youxun said after looking at his phone.

"Don't you think there's anything wrong?" Cheng Miaoyi gestured, feeling that her sleepiness was almost gone with laughter.

"Do you need me to take you upstairs?" Xie Youxun asked curiously.

If his girlfriend was just an ordinary person, he would definitely send his girlfriend upstairs personally, watch her go into the house and close the door before leaving.

But his girlfriend is Cheng Miaoyi.

It was Cheng Miaoyi who could beat four of them with one punch.

Even if a bad guy targets her, it should be the bad guy who gets into trouble.

Cheng Miaoyi shook her head and opened the car door without saying anything.

"Be careful on the road." She got out of the car and waved her hand.

It must be quite a headache for Xie Youxun's brother to have such a younger brother, right?

Cheng Miaoyi didn't know whether to laugh or feel sorry for Xie You looking for his brother.

Maybe she should be thankful that Xie Youxun was not stupid most of the time.

……

Lu Ming, who was soundly asleep, had no idea that Xie Youxun had gone to his brother in the middle of the night to solicit investment.

However, when he woke up in the morning and checked his messages out of habit, he found that Xie Youxun had sent him a message at five o'clock that morning.

The content of the message was very simple, that is, he had persuaded his brother to invest in "The Legend of Hao Lan".

Lu Ming was completely stunned.

He had already discovered that the script he had bound with A4 paper was missing. Without a doubt, it must have been taken by Xie Youxun.

In other words, Xie Youxun took the script to see his brother last night, and even settled the investment issue.

Do you have to move so fast?

This is not the point.

The point is, based on Lu Ming's understanding of Xie Youxun, Xie Youxun probably spent the entire period from last night until five in the morning trying to convince his brother.

In other words, from last night until five in the morning, Xie Youxun and his brother couldn't sleep.

Lu Ming couldn't help but bared his teeth.

Although there was some element of gloating in his expression, he really wanted to say that it was a good thing that Xie Youxun was not his younger brother.

It is such a blessing to have such a brother.

Well, derogatory.

I don’t know if Xie You, who was “persuaded” by his younger brother to find his brother, wanted to beat his younger brother during the process of being “persuaded”.

Lu Ming sent a message to Xie You, mainly to express that he already knew.

Xie Youxun stayed up late to convince his brother that he should be sleeping at this time.

Lu Ming didn't receive a reply in time, but he didn't care.

He washed up and went out to have breakfast.

After breakfast, when Lu Ming was about to return to his rental house to draw storyboards, he received a call.

The call was from someone from Yindu Media, who asked him to discuss the specific details of the "The Legend of Mir 2" project.

Lu Ming glanced at the time. It was eight o'clock in the morning.

The people at Yindu Media are really punctual.

Of course Lu Ming did not refuse.

After a few words of conversation, Lu Ming chose to go to Yindu for negotiations.

There was no need to go home. Lu Ming stopped a taxi and headed towards Yindu.

The negotiation process went smoothly.

Lu Ming was also accustomed to such occasions.

The person who was negotiating with Lu Ming was a slightly plump man in his thirties.

During the negotiation, he was smiling the whole time.

There are two main reasons for this.

On the one hand, he knew that Lu Ming was Xie Youxun's good friend.

On the other hand, it was because their big boss personally said he wanted to invest in the project "The Legend of Mir 2".

The negotiation process was relatively harmonious, but for a project worth hundreds of millions, there was a lot of content to negotiate.

Even though Lu Ming had already made preparations, the two of them didn't finalize most of the matters until noon.

After having a staff meal at Yindu, Lu Ming took a taxi back to his rental house.

His main job now is still drawing storyboards.

Naturally, Yindu was responsible for forming the filming team.

Lu Ming also fully agreed with this.

The project "Huo Guang Cuo" is different from "Watching the Sea".

"Watching the Sea" is a modern drama and is not difficult to shoot.

"The Legend of Mi Yue" not only requires a lot of special effects, various action scenes, and wire hanging is definitely indispensable.

In addition, the requirements for photographers, lighting, and props are also higher.

Lu Ming's only connection in this world is Xie Youxun.

As a new director, he has not yet organized his own directing team.

At this time, it would be most appropriate to ask Yindu to help him recruit people.

The preparations for this film were not as fast as those for "Watching the Sea".

Not only that, we have to hold meetings every few days to discuss the issue.

This kind of thing has happened many times in the real world, and Lu Ming seems to be very used to it.

The two assistant directors and the producer that Yindu assigned to Lu Ming were all experienced people.

At first, they were a little dissatisfied with Lu Ming, a young man, being the chief director.

To have such a young director oversee a project with such a large investment, isn't that just a waste of money?

After rounds of discussion, they finally realized that although Lu Ming was young, he had no less experience than them.
