Crazy Entertainment System

Chapter 377 Setting the Tone

Regardless of whether it was flattery or not, Chen Yu approved of these people's attitude.

"I wonder if the teachers have read the script for 'iPartment' yet?!" Chen Yu asked with a faint smile. This was a prerequisite; only after reading the script could they discuss the rest.

"I've already read it, and I'm truly impressed by this script. How did you come up with this script, Your Highness?" Wang Min and the others nodded, then asked with curiosity.

"That's exactly what I was thinking! You should know that besides the script, the novel 'Swallowing the Stars,' which is quite famous online, is also my work!" Chen Yu said with a light laugh.

Mentioning this, everyone suddenly woke up. How could they not have heard of the famous novel "Swallowed Star"? This work can be called a masterpiece. The writing is simply imaginative, the descriptions of various battle scenes are also very exciting, and the creation of various characters is simply divine. This novel is called the best novel of the 21st century!

It's called science fiction, but it's disguised as fantasy.

The novel "Swallowing the Stars" now boasts hundreds of millions of fans. Several months ago, after Crazy acquired the literature website, it hired professional language experts to translate the book.

It's published and sold in various countries and circulated online. Because of Crazy's influence, topping up and subscribing are very convenient. More importantly, copyright awareness is stronger overseas, so it's mostly paid reading.

It has won over wave after wave of foreigners.

This is also why this novel has hundreds of millions of fans.

"A prodigy is indeed beyond the comprehension of us mortals!" Wang Min sighed. Chen Yu's achievements are too incredible, as can be seen from just one book, "Swallowing the Stars." It involves a lot of scientific knowledge, especially technological knowledge, which he explains in great detail. However, no one knows whether it is true or not, because even if it is true, the current level of technological development is far behind that of the novel.

Therefore, many people believe that the technology in the novel "Swallowed Star" will become a reality, but definitely not now; it will probably be a long time from now.

Chen Yu felt that he would never be able to realize many of the scientific technologies in "Swallowed Star" in his lifetime, unless the system provided them.

However, given the system's nature, the price he would have to pay to acquire such technology was beyond his wildest imagination.

"Are you praising me or scolding me?!" Chen Yu chuckled softly, rubbing his nose with his ring finger as he spoke.

"Absolutely flattering!" Wang Min said with a gentle smile.

The others chuckled as well.

Chen Yu glanced at the group, his eyes filled with helplessness. He knew that the identities of these prodigies were now confirmed.

"Alright, let's talk about the sitcom 'iPartment.' I'd like to know what everyone's thoughts are on the filming of this show!" Chen Yu asked.

Wang Min, Engineer Hu, and others put away their smiles and composed themselves.

Mr. Hu said, "In my opinion, this drama has a cheerful theme and doesn't require overly complicated filming techniques. However, the key is that the actors need to perform well, and all the characters are very distinctive. The role of Zeng Xiaoxian is quite challenging. Prince, are you sure Chen Hei, whom you mentioned, can handle the role?!"

This question about Engineer Hu was obviously of great interest to others as well. Chen Yu nodded and said, "To be honest, I really wanted to play the role of Zeng Xiaoxian, but I backed down in front of Chen Chichi."

Because this guy doesn't need to act at all; it's completely him being himself. This is just how he is in real life!

Upon hearing this, Hu Gong and the others were surprised. There was such a thing? If that was the case, then the filming of this drama would have one less problem.

"So, what about Hu Yifei, the tomboy in the story?!" Wang Min asked. Hu Yifei's role wasn't specified in the information provided.

However, the main emotional element of this drama is the relationship between Zeng and Hu, which was never resolved by the end of the fourth season, leaving the audience particularly concerned about this issue.

"Hu Yifei, I have a clear idea of ​​what this role is in mind, but I haven't found the right actress yet. I'm planning to audition. As always, when I make films, I don't care about background or status. No matter how powerful your connections are, it doesn't matter. I only care if she's suitable," Chen Yu said softly. His voice was soft, but it carried weight.

Wang Min and the others could all sense the determination in Chen Yu's heart.

However, they wholeheartedly support Chen Yu's idea because it reflects the initial sentiment of every director.

But probably only a prodigy like Chen Yu could do that!

"Your Highness, you've spoken our minds. As directors, we just want to be free from external distractions and focus on making our own films."

"It's like raising your own child!" Engineer Hu said softly.

"Yes!"

The others followed suit.

Chen Yu was taken aback by their reaction for a moment, but then he realized what was happening and understood.

His actions and thoughts reflect the thoughts of these directors; no one wants to be told what to do when making a film.

"That would be perfect! For the 'iPartment' show, apart from the roles that have already been cast, we'll be casting for the rest. We also have quite a few new people in the company right now. If all else fails, we'll just do a full-scale recruitment drive! I'm sure we'll find the right people!" Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Yes, this is a great idea, it's entirely feasible, and the filming locations for this drama are also very convenient. It's mostly filmed indoors, so it's easy to find filming locations."

"Yes, let me sort it out. There wasn't much filming outside of Love Apartment, but I heard that Sister Siwen has already finished setting up this apartment!"

Chen Yu nodded and said, "It's all set up. It's in Beijing, but outside the Fifth Ring Road. The location is pretty good though!"

"That would be even more convenient. By the way, Your Highness, when are we planning to hold the casting call?"

"Let's start at 8:00 AM the day after tomorrow! The location will be the company. Now that we've set the general tone, there's no harm in revealing the rest!"

Engineer Hu paused for a moment, then said softly, "So, do we still need to hire from the community?!"

"Let's prepare for both possibilities. I estimate it will be difficult to find someone within the company, so we'll have to try for external recruitment. If you have any good resources you can recommend, please do so. However, you should know my rules: my compensation won't be very high, just passable."

"If you mind, then don't say anything!" Chen Yu said softly.

It wasn't that he was stingy or unwilling to spend money, but rather that he didn't want to start this trend, because once it began, it would be uncontrollable, and Chen Yu had seen what it would eventually become.

A bunch of young male idols have no acting skills and no character, yet they demand sky-high prices and boast about how hard they work. Meanwhile, some irrational and brainless women are still okay with it.

For rational and reasonable people, this would be utterly disdainful.
