Huayu is here for you

Moreover, with the added boost from Lin Yu's films in this life, Miss Liu's film career has been strengthened, so it's no exaggeration to say that Miss Liu is currently at the peak of her career.

Actresses of the same age as Ms. Liu have basically been left far behind and are no longer even in the public eye.

Just as Lin Yu was preparing to film "The Witch" for Miss Liu, she excitedly told Lin Yu another piece of good news.

There's nothing else to it. The Golden Eagle TV Art Festival invited her, and Ms. Liu also wants to invite Lin Yu to go with her, saying there will be a surprise.

After thinking about it, Lin Yu didn't expose Miss Liu. He just said that he would go and see what the surprise she mentioned was.

The weather in October is starting to get cooler, especially at night; the days when you could go out in a short-sleeved shirt are over.

Not only is the weather starting to get colder, but many movie fans are also feeling a chill in their hearts.

Following director Chen Kaige's "The Promise," Feng Xiaogang also presented audiences with "The Banquet."

The flaws in both films are simply too numerous to list. "The Promise" made audiences remember the story of a bloodstained steamed bun, while "The Banquet" made audiences remember the anecdote of "With a sister-in-law, what need is there for the country?"

Although Jackie Chan's "Rob-B-Hood" is there as a foundation, movie fans say it's not enough to satisfy their cravings! Can't those big directors make a movie that we can really enjoy watching?

So, after a period of confusion and complaints, these movie fans who were trying to find spiritual nourishment turned their attention to Lin Yu.

"Lin Yu! What about your 'Buried Alive'? When is it going to be released?"

"Director Lin, any movie plans yet? My wallet's still bulging! Aren't you envious?"

"Zhang Yimou is currently busy with the Olympics and still manages to film 'Curse of the Golden Flower'. Lin Yu, what about you?"

"Even the donkeys in the production team wouldn't dare rest like this, Lin Yu! Get up and start filming!"

.........

Such comments instantly flooded Starlight's public website, and even the media couldn't resist reporting on it briefly.

Looking at the comments from fans, Lin Yu felt a little amused and exasperated.

A large majority of his fans were urging him to make a new movie, while only a small portion were concerned about the release of "Buried".

However, this is understandable. After all, only a small number of movie fans like "Buried" are interested in movies like this. Most viewers now want to see blockbusters with maximum visual and auditory effects.

I was originally planning to wait until I saw Ms. Liu win the Golden Eagle Goddess award before commenting, but I didn't expect everyone to be so impatient, so...

That afternoon, Starlight Entertainment announced that the film "The Witch," written and directed by Lin Yu, was officially scheduled to begin production that day.

Ms. Liu Yifei will be playing the lead role in this film. The other cast members will be announced in a week. Stay tuned!

"What? Director Lin is making a new movie?"

"Wow, I just said it casually! And they actually went ahead and filmed it! Lin Yu, you're amazing!"

"Huh? Lin Yu isn't holding auditions this time?"

Why bother with all that nonsense? Just type "666".

"I trust Director Lin's judgment and I'm really looking forward to it!"

……

The moment the message was sent, Lin Yu was ready to answer the phone.

Less than a minute...

"Feed? Mr. Han."

"Kobayashi, how many times has this happened? Didn't you promise to let me know when you started filming your new movie? Why didn't you tell me this time?"

Hearing Han Sanping's somewhat helpless tone on the phone, Lin Yu felt a pang of regret.

Han Sanping had indeed been good to him throughout his life. Regardless of whether it was because of the success of his movie, he had helped him nonetheless. Lin Yu wasn't an ingrate; he wouldn't take advantage of someone and then deny it.

"Hehe... Mr. Han, this investment is not large, only about 30 million, and the publicity and distribution of 'Buried Alive' has just been handed over to you, so I didn't think of bothering you."

"What are you saying? What do you mean by 'disturbing'? How much trouble can the publicity for 'Buried' take? Is your film's budget fully funded? Can China Film Group invest some money?"

"Um... forget about the investment, Mr. Han. This film is a bit special; I plan to handle it myself. However, I can leave the domestic marketing and distribution to you," Lin Yu said after thinking for a moment.

"Domestic? You mean...you want to find Hollywood channels for a global release?"

"Yes, I think this movie is alright. If we go to the trouble of releasing it worldwide, it should be worth it."

Han Sanping fell silent…

He felt like he had missed out on another big cake.

"Sigh... alright then, but Xiao Lin, China Film Group is enough for domestic distribution and promotion. There's no need to contact anyone else!" Han Sanping said, seizing the last bit of leftovers.

"Okay, no problem."

After finishing his call with Han Sanping, the second person to call was Ms. Liu, who sounded quite excited.

"Senior, is 'The Witch' getting approved? Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

"Hehe...sorry, sorry, I issued the statement in a moment of impulse, and I'm only just coming to my senses now," Lin Yu explained.

"Alright then, I saw your statement. Did you actively invite the actors this time?"

"Well, I already have people in mind for the main roles. As for the minor roles, we'll see how it goes. I reckon those companies will be contacting me before I even have an audition."

"That works too. After all, you're the boss of a film and television company now, so we should exchange some resources."

"Wow! You know this too?" Lin Yu was somewhat surprised.

"Hmph! Don't treat me like an innocent little girl, okay? I've done some research myself," Miss Liu said smugly.

"Hehe...you've grown up, Miss Liu."

"Go away, by the way, senior brother, can I... can I ask you for a role?" Miss Liu asked hesitantly.

"You want a role from me?" Lin Yu asked, bewildered.

"Um!"

"Wow, has Miss Liu evolved? She even knows how to use connections now?" Lin Yu thought to himself in surprise.

Which role do you want?

"The character that's the main character's classmate."

"Who requested it?"

"Changchang, she's been in some trouble lately, so I was thinking of ways to help her. Otherwise, she might only be able to act in TV dramas from now on," Ms. Liu said hesitantly.

Lin Yu understood immediately: what happened in the original timeline was now happening again.

But it's also her own fault. She was a promising actress, but she ruined it all by not going to film school, and then…

No wonder he could only work in the television industry in his previous life!

However, this girl's character is not bad. At least apart from one certain incident, Lin Yu has not heard of any scandals about her.
