Chapter 55 - 55 Battle in May

55 Battle in May

The reason why Luo Chen chose this story was because it did not need the casts to display particularly high acting skills. It was a healing love story.

He also knew some better movies, but Jiang Xiaoyu and those actors had not gotten together yet. They might not be able to act out a top-notch script.

The next day.

Everyone came to the office for a meeting again.

Luo Chen placed the script he had written overnight on the table.

“Everyone, what do you think of this script?”

Everyone picked up the script and flipped through it carefully.

At first, they didn’t feel that it was anything extraordinary. But towards the end, two female high-level executives directly cried.

“President Luo, where did you get this script? It’s really too good!”

“That’s right, it’s much better than Chen Xin’s script!”

“I can guarantee that as soon as this movie is released, it will definitely become popular!”

The high-level executives were very satisfied after reading it.

The story was very good, and the overall plot was touching.

Luo Chen smiled and said, “Since you think the script is okay, prepare to start filming. As for who gave the script, don’t ask. He doesn’t like to be disturbed.”

From the beginning to the end, Luo Chen was unwilling to reveal too much about himself.

Because there were still many protagonists who had not appeared, it was very easy for him to suffer a huge loss if he directly revealed his cards.

“Alright!”

Everyone’s morale soared again, and they got up to return to their work.

Luo Chen also returned to his office.

Recently, he had made too many investments and was therefore extremely busy.

Ye Bei stood guard outside the door as usual.

Suddenly, the phone in his pants rang.

Ye Bei looked at the number and realized that it was Lin Tian. He quickly looked around to see if there was anyone nearby.

Seeing that no one was around, Ye Bei quickly walked to a corner and answered the call.

Ye Bei asked softly, “Hey, why are you calling me?”

Ever since the kidnapping incident, Ye Bei had been avoiding Lin Tian.

He felt that Lin Tian was too rash and could easily ruin his revenge plan.

“Brother, I have a favor to ask of you. Luo Chen is going to film a movie, right? You must make him arrange for the release date to be at the beginning of May.”

Lin Tian went straight to the point. Su Han was the one who had asked him to make the call.

Not only did Su Han disrupt Luo Chen’s original plan, he also wanted his movie to have the same screening schedule as Luo Chen’s and let Luo Chen’s movie die without a burial place!

This way, he could better show his strength in front of Jiang Xiaoyu.

Ye Bei frowned. “Why is that?”

“Why do you care, it definitely won’t be good for Luo Chen. Are you going to do it?”

Ye Bei nodded. “Alright, I understand.”

With that, he hung up, afraid that others would find out.

Time flew by.

Jiang Xiaoyu and the group of actors worked very hard every day. At the end of April, they finally finished filming.

Luo Chen held another meeting after receiving the news.

Everyone was discussing when the movie should be released in the conference room.

“President Luo, I heard that Chen Xin’s script has been bought by Deep Sea International. Their movie, ‘Great Schemer’, will be released at the beginning of May.”

“I heard that too. President Luo, although our script is not bad, the overall popularity of our actors is too low. If it’s released at the beginning of May, I’m afraid we’ll suffer.”

“Indeed. If you ask me, we should broadcast it in June and avoid clashing with them.”

These people’s worries were not unreasonable. Sometimes, the fame of actors was enough to affect the box office.

Seeing this, Ye Bei hurriedly said, “What’s there to be afraid of? We should fight with them! The script is good, so we’re not afraid of them!”

As long as there’s something that can make Luo Chen suffer, I, Ye Bei, must make a move!

“No! We can’t mess around this time!”

The high-level executives still objected. It would be too risky.

At this moment, Zhao Ruoshuang suddenly said, “I think Ye Bei’s suggestion is very good. We don’t have to be afraid of them. Moreover, if it’s released at the same time, we can ride on their popularity. If it’s aired alone, it might be even more unpopular.”

The main reason why Zhao Ruoshuang said this was because she had seen the movie “Love Is Not Blind” in advance.

The acting skills of Jiang Xiaoyu and the others combined with the perfect script were too good.

Although they were all newbies, there was nothing wrong with their acting. Zhao Ruoshuang believed that a movie of such quality could be released anytime!

When the high-level executives heard Zhao Ruoshuang’s words, they felt that it made sense.

There was no need to mention Ye Bei. Even if he was given a tail, he could fly straight into the sky!

He did not expect the goddess to finally speak up for him!

It was probably because he greeted her every day after work that his goddess started to like him a bit more.

Yes! That must be it!

In the end, Luo Chen decided. “In that case, let’s compete with this ‘Great Schemer’ and see who will have the last laugh!”

At night.

Luo Chen returned home and lay on the bed, feeling extremely comfortable.

“I wonder when I’ll be able to settle these male protagonists.”

Luo Chen felt that he had been fighting them every day since he transmigrated.

He did not know when he would be able to clean up and enjoy life.

Just as he was thinking about this, his cell phone suddenly rang.

“Hello, Shuyi. Why are you looking for me?”

Shen Shuyi said on the other end of the phone, “I heard that your movie is about to be released. Do you need me to bring all my employees over to support you?”

Recently, Shen Shuyi had been very busy, but she would also pay attention to Luo Chen in her free time.

She knew that Luo Chen was very motivated, so she wanted to do her best to help.

Luo Chen smiled and shook his head. “If you like this movie, you can go and watch it. There’s no need to bring the employees.”

He was quite confident in his movie.

“Alright, then you can look for me if you need anything.”

…

After a while, “Great Schemer” and “Love Is Not Blind” were released at the same time.

May was a holiday month, and everyone liked to go to the cinema during that period.

In the beginning, almost everyone was attracted by the luxurious lineup of “Great Schemer”.

As long as one went to the cinema, they would ask to watch “Great Schemer”.

As for “Love Is Not Blind”, only those who did not manage to get a ticket for “Great Schemer” would watch it. After all, they were already at the cinema.

Therefore, in the first three days, “Love Is Not Blind” was not doing well.

Until a post appeared on the forum.

At this time, the forum was a gathering place for all the netizens. Everyone liked to share all kinds of things on it.

[In May, I brought my family to watch two movies. They were “The Great Schemer” and “Love Is Not Blind”. The former really disappointed me. The actors in the former were all very outstanding, but they were all fighting for the limelight. It looked very awkward. However, the latter was different. Although they were all new actors, their acting skills were pretty good. Moreover, the plot was much better than the former, so if both movies’ ticket prices are the same, why not watch the better quality one?]

The comments below the post were almost the same.

“That’s right. After watching “Great Schemer”, I felt that it’s not worth my money. I’m just here to appreciate the plot, not watch the actors compete for screen time back and forth!”

“The movie ‘Love Is Not Blind’ is really good. It made me believe in love again!”

“Hearing you all say this, I’ll go see the movie ‘Love Is Not Blind’ tomorrow.”
