After being heavily promoted by the two "Royal Tramp" films, the three actresses, Xiong Caiwei, and others, are already well-known in Hong Kong. With the addition of the third film, the three of them have become so popular that they can stand on their own and have some box office appeal.

After these three young actresses have been promoted, their future development depends on their own potential; how far they can go also depends on themselves.

As the boss, Hu Xiaoxiao has to consider continuing to promote new talent.

Hu Xiaoxiao has not forgotten her experiences in the film industry. She has always wanted to provide female artists with a fair and just environment, so that they can have more say in the film industry, instead of just being decorative figures.

Hu Xiaoxiao couldn't make decisions about other companies, but at Shengshi Entertainment, she hoped female artists could have more room for development. She wasn't afraid of creating a shortage of talent due to promoting too many artists, because she was constantly expanding the market. If Hong Kong wasn't enough, there was Taiwan, and other parts of Asia. Besides, the mainland expansion was nearing completion, representing a vast and promising market.

Considering the mainland market, Hu Xiaoxiao selected a female artist who had just come from the mainland from among the newly signed female artists. This female artist was very qualified; she had not only studied dance, but also possessed an outstanding figure and appearance. In terms of acting skills, the acting teacher gave her a score that was among the top of her batch of artists.

Hu Xiaoxiao decided to make her the next rising star she would promote, and even set up roles for her.

At the Baogang Jewelry Fair, there was a white model named Arya who pretended to be weak and waited for her to be robbed on the way. This female thief Arya was good-looking and good at fighting, and the role was very suitable for promoting newcomers.

Hu Xiaoxiao told screenwriter Liang Jiafeng about the female thief Arya and her experiences fighting Arya, providing Liang Jiafeng with more inspiration to create a new character.

Sure enough, Liang Jiafeng had a burst of inspiration after listening to the story.

"This character, modeled after Arya, can have more screen time. She starts with a cute and harmless image, then later participates in a jewelry show, where she's involved in the theft of a ring under the guise of the show. Yes! It's adapted so that she's the one who steals the Jingdi Jewelry ring, and the ring is stolen during the show. Then, Xiao Jie's real confrontation with her is placed at the end. After the jewelry show, through investigation, it's discovered that this seemingly harmless model is also one of the hidden bosses..."

As for the male protagonist, Liang Jiafeng set him up as the general manager of a jewelry company modeled after Quanfu Jewelry. He is the son of the chairman of the jewelry company and is in charge of the jewelry exhibition.

The image of a tall, rich, handsome, and charismatic male star has been quite successful in the Hong Kong film market in recent years. Based on his previous roles as the male lead in Hu Xiaoxiao's films, Liang Jiafeng continues to present the male lead in a decorative, "flower vase" manner. In other words, Hu Xiaoxiao continues to be responsible for the cool and sassy image, while the male lead continues to be responsible for the good looks.

For the other thief roles, Liang Jiafeng asked Hu Xiaoxiao to cast the actors first, and he would then write the roles based on the cast.

Among the thieves at the international jewelry show, several are on international wanted lists, and others have been wanted by various countries. A wealth of information about them can be found. With so much information on thieves, there's a wealth of material to draw upon. Liang Jiafeng has no shortage of material; he only lacks good actors. He can find information on any actor who can act and fight, and then write about a thief with a corresponding image and temperament, making them a minor or major boss.

Hu Xiaoxiao agreed with Liang Jiafeng's opinion, saying, "When recruiting actors, you and the director should audition the actors together, and you have some decision-making power over who is suitable."

Seeing how much Hu Xiaoxiao valued and supported him, Liang Jiafeng smiled brightly and said, "I will definitely be there and do my best to select the most suitable actors for this film and create the most wonderful script."

"I have always appreciated your scripts. If you need anything during the creative process, just let the company know, and the company will do everything it can to support you." Hu Xiaoxiao has always been very generous to her talent, and she trusts those she employs and doesn't use those she doesn't trust.

With his boss valuing him so highly, Liang Jiafeng naturally puts his boss first in everything, saying, "When creating a character, I will first pay attention to the company's artists. If there is a suitable image, I will create the character based on the image of our company's artists. When casting actors, I will also first consider the company's artists, especially the main actors. I will mainly use our company's artists. Only if I really can't find one will I consider choosing artists from other companies."

Hu Xiaoxiao praised, "I'll talk to the HR department and give you a copy every time they send me the artist information."

To keep track of the company's artists, the HR department regularly sends information on newly hired artists and those with outstanding performance to Hu Xiaoxiao's desk. Hu Xiaoxiao then uses this information to select artists to promote.

After the preliminary preparations went smoothly, Shengshi Entertainment announced the launch of the third installment of "Baogang Inspector Flower" and also announced that it was recruiting actors from within the industry.

The announcement of the actor recruitment became the most talked-about event in the entire industry.

Things are different now. Back when Shengshi Entertainment was first established, they had to rely on connections to get roles in their first film, "The Inspector Wears Skirts of Baogang," and the company practically begged the actors to participate. Now, Shengshi Entertainment is a top-tier company in the film industry, and Hu Xiaoxiao's "Inspector Wears Skirts" series is widely recognized as having the best resources available—haven't you seen how actors who have filmed both "Inspector Wears Skirts" movies become famous? Their star power has skyrocketed.

Therefore, during the days of auditions, countless actors came to audition. In addition to newcomers who dreamed of becoming famous overnight, even some established actors had their eyes on this film. Not to mention the extras who had been struggling in the industry for many years without ever getting ahead, they saw "The Inspector Wears Skirts" as a great opportunity to change their fate.

The general manager of Jincan Films, which has a strategic partnership with Shengshi Entertainment, came to Shengshi in person, hoping to arrange for one or two actors from Jincan to join the company.

In a movie that Jin Can recently filmed, Shengshi Entertainment arranged for one of its artists to be included. In return, Shengshi Entertainment also gave Jin Can a role in the third installment of "Baogang Overlord Flower".

With this collaboration, when the film is released, Baoguang Cinemas, which is behind Jincan, will give the film preferential treatment in terms of screenings and provide excellent support throughout the process.

Outside artists were scrambling to get a role in the third installment of "The Inspector Wears Skirts of Hong Kong," even if it was just a minor, insignificant part. Artists within Shengshi Entertainment, with their advantageous position, were even more eager to participate.

Upon learning that the third installment of "The Inspector Wears Skirts of Baogang" was casting a role as an international thief across the entire film industry, Yu Liang—he's back again!
