Rebirth: Illuminating a Brilliant Life

When Su Xuan received the call from the film and television company, her hands trembled slightly involuntarily. It took her a while to calm herself down before she accepted the invitation in a steady voice.

After hanging up the phone, she stared at the bustling traffic outside the window, feeling a sense of unreality and déjà vu. After years of diligent writing, her work was finally about to blossom on the screen.

The meeting was well-organized, the film company was very sincere and offered generous terms, and the contract was quickly finalized.

The news caused an uproar in the reader group. Everyone was happy for Su Xuan, but also worried. They left comments in the comment section: "Please don't change it drastically. The lawyer's shining image must be preserved!"

Although Su Xuan was too busy with work to participate in the adaptation, she was keenly aware that selling the rights was just the beginning, and any mishaps in the subsequent film and television adaptation process could tarnish the reputation of the original work. Fortunately, with Cheng Ran overseeing things, she felt much more at ease.

Cheng Ran is Su Xuan's boyfriend and a well-known legal elite in the industry, meticulous and thorough in his work. As soon as the contract drafted by the film and television company arrived, Cheng Ran put on his glasses and reviewed it word by word. When he encountered any ambiguous or unclear clauses, he immediately circled them in red and added annotations.

At the negotiating table, facing the film company's legal team, Cheng Ran exuded confidence and pointed out the loopholes in the contract with reason and evidence. She secured for Su Xuan the best way to present the original work's authorship rights, a generous profit-sharing ratio, and the right to participate in subsequent peripheral development.

During the adaptation process, the screenwriter would occasionally call to inquire about key details of the lawyer's character in the original work.

Su Xuan had no time to say more, so the screenwriter contacted Cheng Ran through various channels. Although Cheng Ran was not the creator, he had gone through the entire novel writing process with Su Xuan and was very familiar with the story's plot and the characters' souls. After a series of discussions, the screenwriter gained a lot, and the subsequent adaptation went much more smoothly.

Shortly after filming began, the production team encountered funding problems, leaving the producer so anxious that he was practically bubbling with sores on his lips. For this legal drama, the attire of the legal professionals couldn't be sloppy; cheap suits and outdated shirts simply wouldn't project a professional image and would easily pull the audience out of the story.

With the clothing supplier holding back several batches of high-quality custom-made lawyer robes and work clothes due to overdue payments, the filming schedule was forced to be put on hold.

The director was frowning and paced around the set every day. The lead actors sat around him, but they had lost interest in rehearsing their lines.

When Su Xuan learned that the film crew had to stop shooting due to costume issues, her heart sank, and she immediately started thinking of solutions.

Her family owns a garment factory, so the resources were readily available. Su Xuan immediately dialed the factory's number, explained her needs in a few words, and emphasized that the lawyer's robe should be made of crisp fabric and have a proper cut to highlight the competence of a legal professional.

The factory dared not delay and quickly allocated manpower and prepared materials. In just a few days, a batch of high-quality lawyer robes were completed and delivered to the film crew.

But the actors' suits and work clothes were still undecided, so Su Xuan had a sudden inspiration and contacted a designer friend she knew.

When my friend heard it was for film and television costumes, he immediately agreed to help. After getting the actors' size chart, he carefully matched and repeatedly adjusted the outfits to ensure that each set fit the body perfectly while also being stylish and sophisticated.

On the day the clothes arrived, the main cast and crew gathered around, their eyes filled with surprise as they looked at the brand-new and exquisite costumes.

The director patted Su Xuan on the shoulder and thanked her repeatedly: "We finally solved this big problem. You've been a lifesaver and saved our entire crew!" The lead actors also tried on the clothes and praised them in front of the mirror for fitting them well and looking good.

Su Xuan smiled and waved her hand: "As long as the filming goes smoothly, that's fine. Everyone, just focus on filming and try to polish the drama." With the costumes secured, the cameras roared back to life on set, and filming proceeded in an orderly manner. Everyone was full of energy and eagerly hoped to create a masterpiece.

With the help of these well-fitting and eye-catching costumes, the filming of the crew got back on track, and the set became busy again. The actors, wearing brand-new outfits, immediately looked different, exuding the efficiency and professionalism of legal elites in every gesture. Their lines became smoother, and their emotions were just right.

However, new challenges followed. The filming involved numerous courtroom scenes, and to achieve realism, the crew rented professional venues, with rental fees calculated daily, resulting in enormous expenses. Coupled with equipment rentals and extras' costs, the budget quickly became tight again. Su Xuan had just breathed a sigh of relief when, upon learning of this, her brows furrowed once more.

This time, she didn't panic. She calmed down and considered the situation carefully, deciding to team up with the producer to discuss collaborations with various platforms. The two of them, carrying meticulously edited trailers and project proposals, made numerous trips to different video platforms.

Initially, they encountered setbacks everywhere, with platforms having many concerns. Some thought the subject matter wasn't novel enough, while others felt the cast lacked star power. Su Xuan patiently explained that her drama focused on realism and professionalism, with a well-developed plot and actors who were all genuinely talented, and that it would definitely attract a large number of loyal viewers after its release.

Fortunately, perseverance paid off, and a platform was finally persuaded to pre-purchase the rights and inject funds. With the funds in hand, the entire crew cheered, and filming progress accelerated. Su Xuan, however, didn't relax; she went to the set whenever she had free time to keep an eye on things, discuss plot details with the screenwriter, and remind the director not to overlook any flaws.

After many twists and turns, filming for the series finally wrapped up. During post-production, Su Xuan personally funded a professional team to do color grading and music composition, determined to give the series the best possible results.

On the day the series premiered, its popularity soared, with viewers praising the professionalism of the plot and the meticulous attention to costumes and props, flooding the screen with comments. Su Xuan sat in front of her computer, watching the screen full of praise, her eyes slightly reddening, her heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.

She knew that all the hardships she had endured had paid off, and she felt more confident when her works were adapted into films and television series in the future.

As soon as the show aired, its popularity skyrocketed, with netizens showering it with praise. They not only lauded the tight plot and the actors' excellent performances, but also took notice of the exquisite costumes in the show.

Eagle-eyed netizens discovered that the clothes were produced by Su Xuan's family's garment factory, and once the news spread, orders poured in like snowflakes.

Su Xuan's parents had never seen anything like this before. Surrounded by fabrics and sewing machines, they were completely dumbfounded. Their phones were ringing off the hook, and customer service couldn't handle the volume of inquiries. The elderly couple were so anxious that they kept pacing around, but they didn't know what to do.

Unfortunately, Su Xuan was currently unable to spare any time for the task, as she was deeply involved in the excavation of historical relics. The site was dusty, the work was tedious, and it also involved many details of cultural relic protection, so she couldn't be separated from her at all.

In desperation, she slapped her forehead and thought of her eloquent uncle. Her uncle used to be a top salesman at a Gree specialty store; he was incredibly persuasive, able to introduce products fluently and close deals with ease.

Su Xuan quickly called her parents and reassured them, "Dad, Mom, don't panic! Let Uncle Yao handle this. He's experienced and knows sales, so he'll definitely be able to manage." Her parents were still a little worried, but they had no other choice at the moment, so they nodded.

Upon receiving the task, Uncle Yao immediately perked up. He first checked the inventory, then picked out the popular styles from the show, took photos, edited them, and posted them on the online store and social media platforms; he even went live, wearing a lawyer's suit, demonstrating the fabric details and workmanship, explaining the wearing scenarios, and speaking eloquently, clearly explaining the advantages of the clothes.

Within a few days, the order volume stabilized and the popularity continued to rise. The parents finally breathed a sigh of relief and praised Su Xuan for her good idea. They hoped that this wave of popularity would not fade and would bring the garment factory's business to a new level.
