After escaping with his bestie, the gloomy villain turned darker!

The atmosphere in the conference room froze instantly.

Qi Zhiyuan's legs involuntarily fell off the table.

"Um...how about we take a look at the script first?"

He wrote the script for "Reverse Time" himself. He always had bizarre dreams when he was a child. This movie script was written by integrating his dreams and adding some of his own wild ideas, which is quite imaginative.

Director Zheng silently picked up the script file on the table and sighed deeply, "Friends are good. Friends walk together for life."

Old Wu came to Qi Zhiyuan indignantly and said, "Boss Qi, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

“You didn’t ask…”

Qi Zhiyuan touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. "I thought we were just friends!"

Li Yu suddenly said, "They are just friends. They were just joking. Don't mind it."

He sat down as if nothing had happened, picked up the script on the table and began to read it carefully.

Director Zheng shook his head. If you didn’t care, why did you hold the script upside down?

Old Wu also saw it, looked at him with some heartache, and then helped him restore the script to normal page turning while he was not paying attention.

Li Yu smiled and said thank you, then continued reading the script.

My palms started to feel hot, the corners of my eyes tightened, and my heart felt sour.

The story was so touching that he was fascinated by it.

"What kind of plot is this? It doesn't make any sense at all. Qi, are you sure you want to film this?"

Director Zheng was the only one who had read the script carefully. He stood up angrily and looked at Qi Zhiyuan, "Your name is written on it as the screenwriter. Could it be that you really wrote this?"

He knew Qi Zhiyuan's father Qi Shan, and always thought he was a hypocrite, so he didn't have much contact with him.

He came here this time because Qi Zhiyuan asked him to come and meet an old friend, and there was a script that allowed him to choose the actors himself, so he came here with a lot of freedom.

Li Yu was also an actor he had worked with and admired very much, so even if his old friend had not come, he felt that as long as the script was suitable, he would still be willing to be the director of this movie. However, he did not expect that the script was so terrible.

Old Wu also frowned and quickly scanned the script. After seeing the description of the male lead, he said inexplicably, "Boss Qi, even our Li Yu can't play a male lead like that!"

Qi Zhiyuan, seeing that the previous events had been revealed, immediately began to seriously discuss the script content: "The male protagonist just needs a growth process, and he will become truly powerful later."

Li Yu calmed down and carefully read the description of the male protagonist in the script: "He likes to dress like a woman and has a cowardly personality. He turned evil after being locked in the girls' restroom by his classmates. While seeking revenge on his classmates, he accidentally fell into a time tunnel and returned to 20 years ago. After being taken in by a girl, he gradually discovered the true meaning of life..."

I have indeed never played a male protagonist who is a cross-dresser.

Old Wu frowned and said, "Then there's no need to develop this fetish. You can actually develop something else."

Li Yu: "It's okay, I can act."

He picked up the script and smiled at Director Zheng, saying, "Actually, the plot is okay, but it needs some polishing from Director Zheng."

He can play the male lead as soon as he arrives, so what else does he have to choose? It doesn't matter where he is as an actor, not to mention... he wants to gain a foothold here as soon as possible.

"You really are... Never mind."

Director Zheng was furious at Qi Zhiyuan's lack of fighting spirit and snorted coldly, "Qi, what's the budget for this movie?"

According to the plot, at most some special effects can be added, and the scenes are not very difficult. A relatively good one can be completed with a few million yuan, and a better one can be completed with tens of millions.

"About 30 million. If Sister Jiang likes it, I'll probably invest another 10 million. It all depends on you guys."

He could only come up with 30 million in his budget, but Jiang Cha said that as long as the movie was good, she could add another 10 million for publicity and booking the entire theater.

But maybe we don’t have to wait until the movie is over. There are so many old acquaintances of Sister Jiang here, and they may come to make additional investments in a few days.

Qi Zhiyuan had a nice idea, but Director Zheng immediately poured cold water on him, "With your film style, which is neither modern nor sci-fi, if she says she likes it, it's probably just to give me face."

"Is it really that bad? I revised the script seven or eight times. My girlfriend even cried after reading it."

"Your girlfriend is so sentimental... Wait, you already have a girlfriend?"

Director Zheng's eyes widened with shock.

"What are you talking about? Is it strange that I have a girlfriend?"

"I thought you liked it too..."

"Director Zheng, stop teasing him. Let's find a screenwriter to revise the script."

Old Wu quickly interrupted and brought the topic back to the script.

Director Zheng also realized that he had said something wrong and immediately changed the subject, "Okay, I know a professional screenwriter. I can ask her to polish it. The changes won't be too drastic."

Qi Zhiyuan's eyes flashed, and the thought of showing off died instantly. He said stubbornly: "Show it to me after you finish the revision. Don't change any important plot points."

"Don't worry, we'll definitely be able to come up with a script that everyone is satisfied with in the end."

Li Yu immediately stood up to smooth things over. He brought the topic back to Qi Zhiyuan's girlfriend, "Is your girlfriend a good friend of Cha...Peiqi?"

After hearing this name, the atmosphere in the room instantly became much more relaxed, and Director Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at Li Yu with gratitude.

I forgot that this is Country M.

He is the president of the entertainment company here. The sexual orientation he just mentioned is too taboo, which makes people easily associate it with his father Qi Shan.

This is already a shackle on the child, and he shouldn't mention it too much.

"Well, we'll get engaged and married in two months."

No wonder Sister Jiang has always been thinking about this friend. He is really good at chatting and it feels very comfortable to get along with him.

No matter how mature Qi Zhiyuan is, he is just a young man in his late twenties. He cannot hide his desire to show his affection. It seems that showing off his love is something that every couple in love can't help but do.

"Congratulations! You must have a great relationship."

Li Yu gave his sincere blessings, and even a hint of envy appeared in his eyes.

"Of course..."

Qi Zhiyuan, like a young boy, chuckled and said, "Actually...it's because I'm going to be a father soon. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to get engaged and married at the same time."

Director Zheng also smiled and congratulated: "You guys are really quick!"

They can get the marriage certificate at the age of 20, and the wedding date two months later is Qi Zhiyuan’s 20th birthday.

Old Wu also put down the script and congratulated him: "Congratulations, double happiness! We need to polish our script soon. You'll be very busy with your wedding by then, and I'm afraid you won't have time to worry about this."

"That is, I hope to finish filming it before the wedding. I want to give this movie to us as a wedding gift."

Qi Zhiyuan's words instantly stunned the three people. They all asked in unison: "You want to finish shooting a movie in two months?"
