Chapter 256: Fighting for a Dawn

Night falls.

The taxi stopped next to the Workers' Stadium.

After a while, a guy with a somewhat honest face came out of the car.

Scratching his crew cut, he looked nervously at the red men and green women queuing outside the nightclub.

Compared to the shiny and bright outfits of those handsome men and beautiful women, his wrinkled jeans and red jacket looked incredibly rustic.

Slightly hesitant.

He braced himself and walked to the back of the line.

He had thought Brother Luo was going to gather at a small bar like before; he didn't expect it to be such a big nightclub. This guy was panicked, and he was even walking with the same hand and foot.

"Xu Bo."

With a shout, his shoulder was patted heavily.

It scared him into a shiver.

"Lu..."

Looking at the guy in casual attire wearing a mask, his face was somewhat happy.

"Shh."

Li Luo raised his finger and pulled the other party toward the nightclub entrance: "Why did you come early? I was saying I'd come ten minutes early to arrange a place for you first."

"I didn't want to keep you waiting, so I came early."

At this time, Xu Bo didn't have the demeanor of a future 'Father of the First', his movements were a bit sleazy, and he said extremely embarrassedly: "Brother Luo, why don't we change places? This place looks too lively!"

The guy in front of him was the main planner of *Fantasy Westward Journey*.

In order to get along well.

Li Luo didn't just chat with the other party online.

When the other party came to Beijing, they would also meet up for a drink.

Talking about everything under the sun.

With Li Luo's current social ability, even if they had only met a few times, Xu Bo had long regarded him as a close brother, or rather, more than a close brother, the gap in financial power and status.

Made him more like an older brother.

"Change my ass."

Li Luo knew his introverted personality and said casually: "Isn't it good to be lively? If you're in a bad mood, you have to change the environment to relax."

"Okay."

Xu Bo braced himself and asked weakly: "Are we not queuing?"

This main planner who called the wind and rain in the game world was now noticing the unpleasant gazes of those spirited young men in the queue, feeling as uneasy as a quail.

"A friend's shop."

Li Luo patted his back again and raised his hand to greet the nightclub manager standing next to the door.

Next, Xu Bo followed Li Luo.

Under the escort of security personnel, they walked straight into the nightclub.

Crossing the hall of debauchery, the constantly twisting waists made him swallow hard, wishing he had a few more pairs of eyes; there were really too many sexy girls, and he couldn't look at them all.

However, his introverted personality made him feel uncomfortable again.

Only until he walked into a VIP room with extremely luxurious decoration did Xu Bo let out a sigh of relief.

Although it was his first time in such a place, he still had some confidence now, so he wouldn't be at a loss.

His buttocks had just sat down.

Colorful cocktails, foreign wine, and fruit platters were served like flowing water.

"Brother Luo."

He poked Li Luo's arm and whispered: "How can we drink so much wine? Let's return some."

"Just sit."

Li Luo took off his mask and waved his hand at this guy: "Don't worry about other things; if you can't drink it, just store it. I'll accompany you to drink to your heart's content tonight."

"Brother Luo."

The manager looked at Li Luo with a smile and placed his hands in front of him: "Manager Meng is not in the company; he has already given instructions to try to satisfy your needs as much as possible. Just hang the bill under Manager Meng's name."

"I appreciate the kindness."

Li Luo sat down leisurely and said casually: "I'll just pay the bill myself."

"Okay."

The manager nodded, scanned the wine and drinks filling the table, and then looked at the two men in front of him: "Then that's it for now. Brother Luo, if you have any other needs, press the service bell at any time."

"Wait a moment."

Li Luo understood his meaning instantly and asked with raised eyebrows: "Other needs?"

"Yes."

The manager had a faint smile on his face.

"How about it?"

Li Luo looked at Xu Bo.

"Huh?"

The latter was completely confused.

He didn't understand what they were talking about at all.

"Arrange a few to come over."

Li Luo waved his hand, too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy.

Xu Bo just hadn't played before, but he wasn't stupid; his face turned red instantly, and he waved his hands hurriedly and awkwardly: "No, no, no, shouldn't we not?"

"Then don't."

Li Luo was all about going with the flow.

*Sigh~*

Xu Bo's waving hands stopped.

His expression also became stunned.

Shouldn't he have persuaded him for this kind of thing?

"Hahaha~"

This appearance made Li Luo laugh loudly.

The manager also exited the VIP room carefully with a smile.

Xu Bo wished he could slap himself.

Since he had come.

Why did he push it away so confusedly.

He looked at Li Luo with resentment, but soon shook his head and smiled; regardless of whether there were girls or not, he didn't come for that.

"Drink, drink."

He picked up a glass of wine and gestured to Li Luo: "First, thank you for the reception tonight. When Brother Luo goes to Guangzhou, it'll be my turn to host, but I declare in advance that I can't afford such a good place."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Li Luo clinked glasses with him and added a dark poke: "I see the profit situation of *Fantasy Westward Journey* is quite good. The salary Manager Ding gives you shouldn't be low, right? The year-end bonus should be a few million."

Once these words were out, Xu Bo's face became somewhat stiff.

He drank the wine dry in silence.

"What's wrong?"

Li Luo's mind moved, and he drank the wine calmly: "Old Xu, you're not right. Now that the number of online players is rising steadily, it's the time when you're proud and galloping; what could you be worried about?"

"Sigh~"

Pouring himself another glass of wine, Xu Bo let out a heavy sigh.

Li Luo didn't care about him.

He continued to sip the wine and looked at the MV on the TV screen.

After meeting a few times, he had figured out this guy's personality and knew the other party would soon be unable to hold it in.

Three glasses of wine down in a row.

Xu Bo placed the glass heavily on the table.

"I came to Beijing today."

He pursed his lips and said with strong unwillingness: "I reported the work on the version update to Manager Ding, and then also took the opportunity to propose new salary requirements. Guess what happened?"

"What happened?"

Li Luo offered a cue.

"If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will."

Xu Bo bit his jaw tightly and spat out word by word: "Success is the platform, not the individual. Don't take all the credit for yourself; you can add some salary appropriately."

"As for the rest."

Speaking of this, he closed his mouth tightly.

He didn't continue.

But the negotiation situation was self-evident; either there was no bonus, or what was given was still a large gap from what he imagined.

Looking at the other party's eyes, Li Luo knew the timing was ripe.

The rebellious bone had already grown.

He just needed to stir it up a bit himself.

"Have you watched *Three Kingdoms*?"

Li Luo shook his wine glass gently and drank a mouthful: "I'm talking about the TV series."

"Watched it."

Xu Bo didn't understand.

He had thought the other party would comfort him a few words, but why bring up *Three Kingdoms*.

"I don't like this person Lu Bu."

Li Luo continued to shake the glass, smelling the faint wine aroma: "But I like a sentence he said very much: 'A great man lives between heaven and earth, how can he be depressed and live under others for a long time.'"

"So, I created my own studio from the beginning."

Tapping the wine glass with his fingertips, he leaned back on the soft sofa: "I don't know if you've heard of Huayi; in the industry, it can be considered a huge leading enterprise. They wanted to sign me some time ago."

"The treatment given was very good, but I refused it decisively."

"My idea is very simple."

Drinking the wine in the glass in one gulp, Li Luo looked at the crystal lamp on the ceiling with a smile: "Although it is a big platform, I, Li Luo, can also create a career of my own."

Under Xu Bo's gaze, he grabbed the air forward with his fingers.

And clenched them together suddenly.

It was as if the air had been squeezed and exploded.

His entire expression appeared so wanton and flying, and his whole body exuded a very strong personality charm.

Making Xu Bo yearn for it.

Li Luo turned his head, his eyes shining brightly: "Understand what I want to express?"

"Understand."

Xu Bo nodded slowly, his expression becoming very awkward: "It's just that my situation is different from yours, Brother Luo."

"What's different?"

Spreading his hands, Li Luo curled his lips: "You seem to have dropped out of junior high school, right? You've suffered quite a bit. I also came from the countryside, walking step by step from being an extra earning a few box lunch meals a day."

"What bitterness haven't I eaten."

"I can do it, why can't you."

Xu Bo naturally knew how Li Luo had walked step by step, and it was precisely because they both had similar life experiences that their relationship had gone from unfamiliar contact in over a year.

To becoming somewhat talkative.

Listening to these bold words, a hint of heroism also arose in his heart.

It was just that.

It was soon pressed out by himself.

"Brother Luo."

He scratched his head and said with a bitter smile: "Making games is not like acting. You can walk up from an extra because you have ability and talent, but the game industry is different; having ability alone is not enough."

"It requires a large amount of capital to support."

"If you can't do it."

Xu Bo said with emotion, shaking his head: "A few million is like burning it for fun, losing it completely!"

The game industry is about the same as movies and TV.

The risk is also extremely great.

There is no lack of people who invest a large amount of capital without even making a splash.

"Do you have confidence in your own level?"

Li Luo sat up and looked at Xu Bo fixedly.

"Of course."

Xu Bo didn't have any hesitation.

"Me too."

Li Luo patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Although we haven't known each other for long, my understanding of you is already enough. If you have the guts to come out and venture on your own."

"I am willing to take out ten million."

"Let you create a game of your own, let you achieve a career of your own!!!"

Looking at the bright finger held in front of his eyes.

Xu Bo's chin dropped.

Ten million!

What kind of concept is this.

The housing price in Guangzhou is extremely high now, already reaching about 5,000 per square meter. According to a 100-square-meter house, Brother Luo just knocked his mouth a few times and directly smashed 20 houses on his head.

Even if NetEase wants to develop a project.

That also requires repeated inspection and repeated research, and it takes a long discussion to make a decision.

Now, it's just one sentence!

Brother Luo's extended finger seemed to be glowing with gold.

Xu Bo's head was buzzing.

He didn't dare to believe the words he heard.

He originally wanted to find Brother Luo to drink a big wine to vent the depression in his heart, but now the trajectory of things was completely beyond his imagination.

"Are you joking?"

Using all his strength, Xu Bo stuttered and summarized thousands of words into one sentence.

*Knock, knock, knock. *

Just then, the door was knocked.

Red, blue, yellow, green, orange.

One bright color after another bloomed in front of the two, and various suspender skirts filed into the room, all with long legs, the skirts only wrapping around the buttocks, and the waists twisting like willow branches.

Pretty faces, lined up in a row.

DCDCD.

It looked extremely spectacular.

"Good evening, Boss!"

Another deep bow in unison brought great pressure to the two sitting on the sofa.

The girls straightened up and were slightly surprised at the moment they saw Li Luo.

But soon.

Their expressions became accustomed again.

Xu Bo hadn't recovered from the matter just now, and now seeing this posture, he was completely in a state of chaos.

"Drink first."

Nodding to the manager, Li Luo patted Xu Bo's knee again: "I'll give you one night to consider. If you want to fight for a dawn and don't want to lick your face to find someone else to raise your salary."

"Come find me at the company tomorrow morning."

"You sing."

Pointing to the girl on the very edge, Li Luo beckoned: "The rest come over to drink."

After a while.

Singing sounded.

Glasses of wine were constantly sent to his mouth.

The nasal cavity was filled with perfume, and everywhere he looked were tender breasts and beautiful faces. At this time, Xu Bo's back was sweating, and he was floating as if in the clouds, completely sinking into the red lights and green wine.

Staying at NetEase to work, he wouldn't be able to live such a life in his whole life!

Holding the soft waist.

Xu Bo's eyes turned bright red.

Noticing this guy's expression, Li Luo smiled happily, then shook the dice with the girls in a regular manner.

The matter was highly probable.

Settled!

The next morning

The Cherokee stopped in front of the Small Red Building, and Li Luo jumped out of the car in high spirits.

Amidst a few surprised shouts from passersby, he waved his hand with a smile, walked quickly through the small courtyard in front of the building, and walked up the steps.

"Manager Li."

The front desk stood up quickly and gestured to the side: "You have a guest waiting."

In the waiting area.

That red jacket was particularly eye-catching.

Xu Bo was dressed exactly the same as yesterday, sitting on the sofa muttering to himself; one could smell the wine coming from this guy from far away, and looking at this posture, he was about the same as a homeless man.

"He was squatting at the door when I came over this morning."

The front desk girl looked at Li Luo and whispered: "If he hadn't said he was invited by you, I would have been scared to call the police."

"My friend."

Li Luo replied casually.

With a *snap*, the snapping fingers caught Xu Bo's attention.

"Brother Luo."

The latter stood up suddenly.

"Go upstairs."

Li Luo took the lead and walked toward the second floor.

The two walked into the office one after the other. Xu Bo's buttocks had just touched the sofa when he spat out the words he had held for a whole night with red eyes:

"Why?"

Simple three words, exhausting the questions in his heart.

He didn't doubt Li Luo could take out ten million, but why did it have to be him.

Why help him.

If he wanted to invest in the game field, there were clearly more and better choices, so why did it have to be him.

After drinking last night, these questions made him unable to sleep all night.

His wide-open eyes were full of bloodshot eyes.

"First of all, we are friends, aren't we?"

Li Luo burned water slowly and put a pinch of tea leaves into the teapot: "Of course, this is only one of the reasons. Business is done with the familiar, not the unfamiliar; investing in a field you are familiar with is a very normal thing."

"I understand your strength and I am clear about the prospects of the online game industry."

"I believe you will bring me benefits."

"I am willing to gamble with you; it depends on whether you are willing to gamble with yourself."

Entrepreneurship sounds very beautiful.

But giving up the current high-paying job to fight for a future indeed requires courage; if it fails, everything will turn into a bubble.

This was also the reason why Xu Bo tossed and turned all night.

Actually, he had already thought clearly.

Asking this sentence was just to get Li Luo's recognition and give him some courage to step out.

"In short, it's one sentence."

Li Luo looked at Xu Bo with a smile and nodded seriously: "I believe in you as a person, and I am willing to fight with you; it depends on whether you want to fight yourself!"

This sentence was unusually heavy.

As heavy as ten million.

Pressing Xu Bo to close his mouth completely, but also supporting his waist straight.

"I want daily management rights."

Xu Bo's constantly shaking legs stopped suddenly, and his bloodshot eyes stared at Li Luo: "You cannot interfere with company matters at will."

If this point wasn't agreed upon, he would immediately give up this idea.

It must be done according to his own ideas.

"I'll give it to you."

Li Luo poured the boiling water into the teapot and watched the tea leaves tumble and stretch: "I won't do things where the layman leads the expert; all daily affairs of the company will be decided by you."

"However, the corresponding decision-making, review, and regulatory powers, I must have."

"I believe you can understand."

Xu Bo naturally could understand; others weren't really throwing ten million in for him to play with at will. If there wasn't a certain right, how was that stuff different from giving money away for free.

Being able to get the permission for daily management was already satisfying.

He could exert his talent at will.

Without being managed at every turn.

"In order to let Brother Luo see my determination."

Clenching his palms tightly, Xu Bo's skin felt slightly hot: "You only need to invest 9.5 million in the company; I'll take out 500,000 here too. However, in terms of shares, I need to have a 30% stake."

Although somewhat embarrassed, he was convinced he was worth this equity.

Although Brother Luo was willing to take out so much money to invest in him, Xu Bo felt grateful inexplicably.

But the conditions that should be mentioned still had to be mentioned.

To tell the truth.

Ever since he created *Fantasy Westward Journey*.

Actually, quite a few peers had contacted him, but they were rejected by Xu Bo at the time. He believed that if he leaked the wind to the outside, there should be quite a few people who wanted to poach him, the main planner.

So when raising requirements, his confidence was still very sufficient.

Li Luo picked up the teapot.

And poured tea soup for the other party slowly.

Actually, even if Xu Bo didn't take out a penny, he would agree; after all, without the other party, this company couldn't operate at all, and human technology was also a kind of resource investment.

Now that he was willing to take out money, it was to enhance his confidence as an investor.

I have to say.

Xu Bo's handling of things was still very much in place.

So the other party's 5% capital contribution ratio, but wanting to occupy 30% of the shares, in his view, wasn't excessive at all. Even without his money, the other party could still find investment.

Maybe the conditions given by others would be better.

Considering the revenue level of Duoyi Network in his impression, this was a super cost-effective deal.

"How about this."

Under Xu Bo's nervous gaze, Li Luo signaled the other party to drink tea: "I have some ideas here; why don't you listen and see how they are?"

"Please speak."

Xu Bo licked his dry lips.

"Actually, you occupying 30% of the shares is completely no problem."

Li Luo gave him a reassurance and continued to give his own ideas: "However, I suggest you let go of two points, and I'll let go of eight points here; let's keep 10% of the shares as employee incentives."

"This is for you to use to poach people. No matter how high your level is, you can't cover the world by yourself, right?"

Hearing this, Xu Bo's face turned red again.

He only thought of himself.

But didn't think there were others.

"In addition."

Li Luo smiled slightly and picked up the teacup to gesture to the other party: "Brother Luo will give you a small bet agreement. For example, if the company reaches a certain profit target in five years."

"I will transfer part of the equity to you at an eight-fold price-to-earnings ratio."

"Hmm."

"Let's make it 10%!"

Hearing this, Xu Bo hurriedly drank the boiling tea, spat out air, and asked: "What is this profit target? If I don't complete the bet agreement, what price do I need to pay?"

"Hmm, annual profit of five million."

Li Luo drank a mouthful of tea and laughed happily: "The price is very simple; you just treat me to a meal then."

This bet agreement sounded very ridiculous.

But he was taking precautions.

Now that he was investing so much money in the other party, Xu Bo was definitely grateful, but as the company developed and grew, after the profit situation exceeded the other party's imagination, who knew what small thoughts he would have.

After all, people's hearts are hard to measure; it's not guaranteed that Xu Bo would think the company was developed by him single-handedly.

And he, this hands-off boss, took a big advantage.

By then, even if there was dissatisfaction, the transfer of 10% of the shares would be enough to calm the other party's resentment, and the cooperation could be more long-lasting.

This bet agreement left Xu Bo not knowing what to say.

The words were as straightforward as they could be.

If you make money by then, brother is afraid you won't feel comfortable.

I'll transfer 10% of the shares to you in five years, so you can earn more money!

Everything is afraid of comparison; compared to yesterday's negotiation, today was simply like a welfare broadcast. Such an action also made Xu Bo convinced that Brother Luo wanted to help him achieve a career.

This is truly treating him as a friend.

Otherwise, how could he do such a thing that looked extremely stupid in others' eyes.

Biting his teeth hard.

The hardships of walking this path kept emerging in his mind.

Parents divorced, he was kicked out of the house, working as a web cafe manager to barely make a living.

One thing after another surged into his heart.

Xu Bo's eye sockets felt sour, and hot tears kept sliding down from the corners of his eyes.

"Brother Luo."

He wiped away the tears hard and gritted his teeth: "I guarantee you here, even if I have to fight for this life, I will win this bet agreement. I will absolutely not let you treat me to that meal."

"Good, good, good."

Li Luo nodded heavily and pulled out a tissue to hand to this guy: "A big man bleeds but doesn't cry; hurry up and wipe it for me!"

He naturally understood the other party's meaning.

Completing the bet agreement.

Meant the company made money.

This was expressing that he absolutely wouldn't let the money he invested be lost.

"My funds here are ready for you at any time."

While the other party was wiping tears, Li Luo laughed: "Don't be in a hurry to resign; work at NetEase for a few more months first, settle down in all aspects, and make a few more friends or something."

At first, Xu Bo didn't react. He was boiling with blood now, wishing he could go back and throw the resignation letter in his supervisor's face immediately.

But hearing the sentence behind, this guy's complexion became extremely strange.

No wonder Brother Luo could achieve such a high level.

This little thought.

It was also powerful enough.

"Got it."

Wiping away tears messily, Xu Bo showed an expression of deep agreement: "I really need to make a few friends who are outstanding in all aspects. I will pay attention to these. With 10% of the share incentive."

"There should be quite a few people interested."

"Keep a low profile."

Li Luo added tea for him and said unhurriedly: "Don't make a big fuss; let's shoot quietly. We must be steady in doing things. In addition, you must also be cautious."

"Avoid unnecessary lawsuits later."

Under these words, Xu Bo nodded excitedly.

Thinking that he would be the boss of a company in the future, infinite energy seemed to be born in his body. He excitedly told his future partner about his ideas for creating a new game.

This goes without saying; of course, it was a turn-based game similar to *Fantasy Westward Journey*.

Doing the unfamiliar is not as good as doing the familiar.

Xu Bo naturally understood this logic.

Li Luo nodded from time to time and also gave encouragement in terms of spirit.

Until Lin Yue knocked on the door, signaling to go for today's shooting work, the in-depth talks between the two came to an end.

Unable to suppress his excitement.

Xu Bo gave Li Luo a big hug and thanked him repeatedly before bowing and leaving.

When walking down the stairs.

His staggering footsteps almost made him fall.

This appearance made Lin Yue really unable to figure it out.

"This is?"

Closing the door, her curious gaze looked at Li Luo.

"Keep it secret for now."

Li Luo laughed loudly, carried Manager Lin to his shoulder amidst a scream, and walked into the lounge inside while patting her fat buttocks.

With a few *rips*, he tore the skirt she was wearing into several pieces.

That tender skin.

Was unusually fair against the red bedding.

The huge breasts pressed the pillow down heavily.

"Hate you."

Lin Yue panted and pulled the quilt, hiding inside nimbly: "Can you be more gentle when you do things? I always have to go buy a few identical sets of clothes; the look others give me is indescribably strange!"

"Ah~"

As Li Luo drilled into the quilt, the scream sounded again: "Why are you so excited? It's like you earned ten million."

"More than that."

Li Luo's eyes were faintly red, looking at the woman in front of him and driving straight in: "Far more than that."

Catching Xu Bo.

Meant he had caught a God of Wealth.

That was a game company with a net profit of over one billion in the future. Having successfully taken down the unicorn, Li Luo, who had just pretended to be calm, entered a violent mode instantly, venting his joy to his heart's content.

Things in the future didn't bring much change to the present.

Except for the increase in calls from Xu Bo, everything else went on as usual, and the magazine cover was also shot smoothly.

When he was writing his thesis at school.

A phone call broke the silence.

Just over ten minutes later, Ning Hao's figure appeared at the classroom door.

"Xiaoxiao."

Li Luo scanned the girl who was accompanying him to write the thesis; the latter stood up very obediently and automatically made room for a conversation.

"Hello, Junior."

Ning Hao greeted and blinked at Li Luo.

A bad smile appeared on his face.

This little life is really moist enough.

Enjoying romance with a beautiful female classmate in the classroom, even holding hands is a great happiness. This kind of thing made him inevitably feel a sense of reminiscence; youth is really good!

It's just this expression, plus his disheveled appearance.

Fully revealing a sleazy temperament.

"It's revised."

He threw a thick script in front of Li Luo and picked up an apple on the table to take a bite: "According to our previous logic, two other screenwriters and I have been busy for more than a week."

"You look first, and call me when you're done."

*Crunch, crunch*, chewing the fruit flesh and swallowing it, this guy who rushed over hurriedly took the larger half of the apple and lay down.

In just a few seconds, snoring sounded in the classroom.

The fatigue on his face could not be more obvious.

The dried eye boogers.

He didn't even have time to wipe them off.

Li Luo doubted whether this guy had taken a bath in the past few days!

Rubbing his nose, he looked at the script that was still emitting the fresh scent of oil ink and opened it slowly.

A movie script.

It was probably about 30,000 to 50,000 words.

After reading it carefully once, half an hour was enough for Li Luo.

Compared to the previous *Big Diamond*, the script content had changed greatly, and it was 80% similar to the finished film in his memory; actually, this was already enough.

It wasn't that whatever content was in the script, the movie would present it in that way.

Many contents were based on on-site conditions.

Adjusted while shooting.

Actors would also have some on-the-spot improvisation when acting, so what he had in his hand now was undoubtedly *Crazy Stone*.

After reading the script.

He didn't wake Ning Hao up.

Picking up the pen on the side, he continued to perfect the thesis in his hand.

He didn't know how much time had passed; the snoring on the side stopped with the bell for the end of class. Ning Hao rubbed his eyes and looked at Li Luo in a daze: "Hmm, did you not read it or have you finished reading it?"

"Finished reading."

Li Luo nodded, the pen tip moving on the paper: "The story is very good; I like it very much."

"No big problems."

"Next, let's go through the process."

Putting down the pen, he smiled and reached out to this Photography Department senior.

With this kind of spirit from the other party.

This movie would be hard not to succeed.

Sighing with emotion, Ning Hao grasped Li Luo's extended hand tightly and shook it excitedly.

Script confirmed, investment confirmed.

Doesn't mean the movie can be shot directly.

Shooting it out also can't be broadcast; it can only become a so-called underground movie.

There was still a series of processes to go through.

First was the qualification issue; fortunately, Jiang Wen's handling of things was powerful back then, and his studio had all the qualifications, so he didn't need to worry about this. Next, he just needed to take the movie script for filing and project initiation.

Only after the filing was passed and the license was obtained would it enter the crew preparation and shooting stage.

After that, it was submission for review.

Finally, it was release.

It sounded simple, but the matter was extremely complex.

Fortunately, he had a strong-woman assistant, and throwing these things to the other party to do was fine.

The filing publicity cycle took about a month.

This had to be waited for.

Now that the funds were confirmed and everyone had signed a cooperation agreement, Ning Hao could actually contact the actors he liked first, but the first thing that needed to be decided was the role Li Luo was playing.

Releasing the grasped hand, Ning Hao blinked and looked at his investor:

"Brother Luo, what do you think of the male lead?"

"Not much."

Li Luo laughed and refused decisively.

This guy's abacus was too precise; although he didn't care about his screen image and the role was very challenging, he didn't want to play a middle-aged man with prostate problems.

Ning Hao laughed along; it was just a sentence.

Whether it worked or not, ask first.

Anyway, he wouldn't lose out.

"Mike!"

Li Luo flipped through the script and tapped on the paragraph about the international thief.

This role was quite interesting.

The image was particularly distinct.

"I just watched it." He laughed happily and continued: "This international thief from Hong Kong had better have a dialect too; add a catchphrase, hmm, just say 'I top your lungs'!"

"Huh?"

Ning Hao didn't understand.

He didn't expect the junior to suddenly pop out a sentence in Cantonese.

*Swish, swish*, Li Luo wrote those words into the script: "Slang in Cantonese, it counts as a swear word; used to express shock and strong dissatisfaction. I feel it's quite suitable here."

"No problem."

Ning Hao nodded immediately.

Adding a catchphrase is nothing.

The role of Mike had quite a lot of scenes; if Brother Luo made a cameo, it could save him at least tens of thousands in production costs.

"Hehehe."

Thinking of something, he couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

"What?"

Li Luo raised his eyebrows.

"Your image has always been very capable of fighting."

Ning Hao laughed again and said happily: "Acting as this unlucky international thief seems to be just right; that kind of strong contrast, I think, should be able to make the audience laugh their teeth off."

"I think so too."

Li Luo was also happy, but quickly put away his smile: "This is a selling point; don't reveal it. When the time comes, just market me as an international thief with extraordinary skills."

Ning Hao's eyes lit up, and he nodded quickly to express agreement.

With such a thing.

It would definitely be able to bring others a big surprise.

"Also."

Li Luo flipped through a few more pages and tapped the script: "Dao Ge's girlfriend, a signed artist in my studio is quite suitable. I'll have someone go see you one day; if you think it's okay, use her."

"If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter."

After all, he had promised not to interfere with creative freedom.

Li Luo didn't want to point fingers here at the beginning, making people feel he was going back on his word.

"Suitable, suitable."

Ning Hao didn't even think and agreed immediately.

He wasn't a greenhorn; how could he not give this little face.

No matter what.

The one sitting next to him was his God of Wealth.

The one who could be signed by the other party must be a beautiful girl; Ning Hao had no doubts about this point.

Li Luo stopped talking quickly.

No more words.

Just let the other party go back to rest well and wait quietly for the filing result.

After Ning Hao left.

Bian Xiaoxiao walked over curiously.

Needless to say, she looked straight at the script on the table.

"The movie I invested in."

Patting the script, Li Luo looked at Bian Xiaoxiao, whose eyes suddenly shone: "I've checked for you; there's no suitable role for you. The only one with a heavy scene is still the seductive type."

"Alright."

Bian Xiaoxiao sat down regretfully.

Actors naturally know what roles they are suitable for, and she also knew very well that if there was a suitable one, the other party would definitely consider her.

As for investing in a movie, to tell the truth, she wouldn't be surprised by anything Li Luo did.

This guy had always liked to play various tricks.

"Time passes really fast."

The girl held her chin and said with emotion: "It seems like we participated in the art exam just yesterday; now in the blink of an eye, everyone is about to graduate, and you've gone from filming TV to investing in movies."

"Everyone's changes are so big."

"They are quite big."

Li Luo's gaze moved down, looking at the girl sitting beside him.

Jeans wrapped around long legs, a white shirt added a bit of youthful vitality, and the temperament of a female college student was pulled to the full.

The most important thing is.

Through his unremitting efforts.

Bian girl had indeed undergone great changes in these few years.

The cup size of the other party.

Was obviously more than when they first met!

"You're really bad."

Bian Xiaoxiao tasted it instantly, and charm rose rapidly in her eyes: "Thinking about that kind of thing all day long, but having said that, our first time seems to have been in this classroom."

"Really?"

Li Luo was confused at first, then showed his white teeth: "Can't remember, why don't you help me recall?"

Glancing at him, Bian Xiaoxiao looked out the window.

Then bit her lip and squatted down quickly.

In an instant.

Only Li Luo's figure was left in the entire tiered classroom.

He flipped through the script of *Crazy Stone* leisurely, while also enjoying the crazy tongue; the smile on his face became more and more intense. Life not only had the beauty of the future, but the present was also wonderfully incomparable.

The first movie produced by the studio entered the filing process.

Li Luo's thesis defense.

Completed successfully.

Combining his own experience, his *From Inside Out, Deep Interpretation of Emotions* received unanimous praise from the review teachers, and smooth graduation was naturally a matter of course. Next, he just needed to wait for that day to arrive.

During this month, Wang Ou and Bian Xiaoxiao were not idle.

The former was even like crazy.

She almost didn't even step out of the courtyard gate, holding the script every day to recite and ponder back and forth, striving to let herself completely enter the character state.

Sometimes the look in her eyes when looking at Li Luo was the kind of admiration that couldn't be suppressed.

Just this serious appearance.

Was completely listening to Li Luo's words.

It doesn't matter if the acting is poor; chew the script, break the character, and you can still act very brilliantly.

Sometimes too obsessed.

Li Luo could only snatch her script and let Wu Yu take this guy out for shopping and walking.

Don't really get possessed!

Another noon, Li Luo carried several plastic bags into the courtyard; the reclining chair crushed the stone slab and made a leisurely sound. Wang Ou shook the chair gently, still flipping through the script in her hand.

*Swish, swish* sounds also came from time to time; Wu Yu was sweeping the fallen leaves.

The atmosphere in front of him.

Made people feel comfortable just looking at it.

"Brother Luo."

Hearing the movement, the little assistant turned her head with a smile, and Wang Ou put away the script like lightning, pretending to be indifferent.

"Bought a few Australian lobsters on the way."

Handing the bag to Wu Yu, Li Luo came to the ginkgo tree and lay on the empty reclining chair: "Take it to steam; just treat it as a celebration."

"Celebrate what?"

The little assistant stopped.

"Enter the group tomorrow."

Li Luo picked up the tea poured by Wang Ou leisurely and drank it in one gulp: "Prepare for the new play to start."

As soon as the words fell.

Excited cheers from the girls echoed over the courtyard.
