Chapter 127

Seeing Xu Anhua leaving with a happy look, Li Xuan and Ye Zhiming turned back and walked back to the company. While walking, Ye Zhiming looked at Li Xuan curiously and asked, "A Xuan, why did you remember to invest in this woman?"

"What, Lao Ye, do you think she is not worthy of my investment?" Li Xuan asked teased.

"How could it be!" Ye Zhiming immediately retorted: "Although I have a bad vision for making movies, I still have a very accurate view of people. Xu Anhua is very talented, and the script is also good, which is worth investing in. But I don't think it's like your usual style."

"Oh? What is my usual style?" Li Xuan asked curiously.

"Ha ha……"

Ye Zhiming laughed, but instead of answering first, he stretched out his right hand and pinched each other with his thumb and index finger. Then he laughed and said, "This is your style."

Li Xuan was immediately amazed and scolded, "Pujie Lao Ye, in your eyes, am I just a person who only looks at box office results?"

"It used to be, now..." Ye Zhiming looked up and down at Li Xuan, then smiled and said, "It's not now, haha!" After saying this, Ye Zhiming then returned to his office with a loud laugh.

Li Xuan looked at Ye Zhiming's back with a lot of laughter. This old Ye was much happier than when Li Xuan first saw him. This was great. At least, Ye Yuqing, the little lolita, should not have gone on the old path in later generations.

After looking at the dozen staff members in the office, Li Xuan shook his head in a slight way, and turned around and walked back to his office.

Alas, the company is still too small!

Originally, when Ye Zhiming joined the company, Li Xuan planned to take the opportunity to make a major integration and build up the rules and regulations of the company first, such as the artist department, the production department and the logistics department.

As a result, Li Xuan's opinion was objected to Ye Zhiming. Only now did the entire company have a simple artist department, and everyone else has multiple positions. The reason given by Ye Zhiming is also very simple. The company is still small and subdividing is equivalent to a waste of money. By then, the company will expand and it will not be too late to subdividate.

When Li Xuan thought that this was reasonable, he agreed. As a result, in addition to the camera and actors, there are only twelve people in the company who are stationed in the company to do odd jobs.

Oh, no! Because Li Xuan invested in filming several movies and accumulated a lot of props, the company also rented a small factory building to build a factory warehouse on the street next door, and hired an old man to watch the house.

By this calculation, there are thirteen people doing odd jobs in the entire company, which is a really good number.

Kei Zhihong's "Evil" was finally released fifteen days after it was released, with a total box office of HK$2.86 million. This result is really impressive in a large Shaw Brothers movie, although it is not as good as the results of "The Black Man" in the second week.

The box office of "Black Man" in the second week was 3.24 million, which was also a good result, but Li Xuan saw that the box office data was declining rapidly, and the box office in the second week was more than one million less than the first week.

Although it has become possible for "The Black Man" to exceed 10 million in box office, it is obvious that the audience has adapted to this novel martial arts method, and the attractiveness of the movie is declining.

Then let me give you some more fantastic and imaginative movies! Li Xuan looked at the headquarters of the Ming Pao Building in front of him and walked in with his head held high.

Li Xuan has been here many times, but he is familiar with the way. He went straight to Jin Yong's office door and stopped the secretary who wanted to call the door. Li Xuan knocked on the door himself.

"Dongdongdongdong..."

"Please come in!"

After a while, Jin Yong's voice came from inside. Li Xuan immediately opened the door to the office when he heard this.

"Mr. Cha, I'm disturbing!" As soon as I entered Jin Yong's office, Li Xuan took the lead in saying hello.

"Ah! Xuanzi!" Jin Yong, who was sitting at the desk reviewing the manuscript, looked at Li Xuan walking in in surprise.

"Xuanzai, you are such a rare guest!" Jin Yong teased while sitting behind the desk.

"Haha, I'm a little busy lately." Li Xuan replied awkwardly.

Since the end of the serialization of "Kunlun" in Ming Pao, Li Xuan has not usually gone to Ming Pao headquarters. Besides, when Li Xuan started playing movies, he completely wrote it. No, he was letting go of copying novels. Li Xuan was really embarrassed to face this person who had the kindness of knowing him.

"Busy? That's right. Movies one after another, and I've all been on the front pages of our Ming Pao several times?"

Jin Yong didn't plan to let Li Xuan go. This martial arts novel he was very optimistic about actually went to make a movie. When he heard the news, he was lost for several days.

"Haha, it's just a few times." Li Xuan obviously started fighting haha.

"Hmph, how many times? That's all?" Jin Yong looked at Li Xuan with a sense of regret, but looking at Li Xuan's tired and slutty look, he had to wave his hand and say helplessly: "Tell me, what's wrong with coming to the door this time? Have you started writing a new novel?"

Looking at Jin Yong with a look of hope, Li Xuan really wanted to say nothing. However, for the sake of what to discuss next, Li Xuan had to say implicitly: "Yeah, I've written it."

Unexpectedly, he got the exact answer after asking casually. Jin Yong hurriedly held his golden glasses frame and smiled: "Where is the manuscript, come and take it to me to see."

"Uh... I didn't bring it at home."

"You..." Jin Yong was almost angry at this sentence and bleeding inside, then asked with a cold face: "You are lying to me, are you?"

"No, how dare I lie to you?" Li Xuan waved his hand and explained, "It's really at home, I didn't bring it."

Li Xuan decided to start copying novels immediately when he went back, and then he would deal with this level first.

"Since I didn't bring you, what are you doing here today?" Looking at Li Xuan's "sincerity" on his face, Jin Yong felt a little relieved and asked immediately.

"I want to adapt a novel by Mr. Cha into a movie and want to buy the copyright." Seeing that he finally talked about the serious matter, Li Xuan said calmly.

"A novel is adapted into a movie?" Jin Yongyue pondered for a moment and continued to ask: "Which novel?"

Li Xuan felt a little nervous at this moment, and slowly spit out four words: "Smiling, Proud Wanderer!"

As soon as he said this, Li Xuan saw an inexplicable smile appearing on Jin Yong's face. Li Xuan looked at Jin Yong in front of him, and somehow a bad premonition surged in his heart.

"I'm sorry, Xuanzai." Jin Yong shook his head silently and said slowly: "I can't sell the copyright of "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer" to you."

The premonition in my heart turned out to be true immediately. Li Xuan asked in surprise: "Why? Mr. Cha, don't worry, I will have a lot of copyright fees."

"Haha, Xuanzai, who do you think of me? This is not a matter of copyright fees at all."

"That's it?"

In an instant, Li Xuan felt that there would be a bigger problem waiting for him in front.

"At the end of 1977, Shaw bought the copyright of "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer", but it has not expired yet."

Li Xuan was speechless. This was really a big trouble! (To be continued. Please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better, and it is updated faster!)
