Cloud Peak Scenery
Chapter 267 Satisfied
"A pioneer of the zombie genre?"
Lu Xuan couldn't help but smile at the thought of having another title added to his name.
The titles just keep getting longer and longer!
Of course, all of this depends on the quality of the film.
Whether the film directed by Lin Ying meets the standards in his mind.
Only by deeply touching the audience's hearts can the worldview of this world be established.
This is the cornerstone of everything.
If the foundation isn't solid, then all his ideas are just castles in the air.
Lu Xuan focused his attention on the screen in front of him.
The opening scene is set in a village, with Daoist Priest Lin Ying performing a ritual.
The opening shots are short and clean.
Especially Lin Ying's portrayal of Uncle Jiu, the movements of the ritual are very convincing.
Just from these few shots, one can get a glimpse of the whole picture.
Lu Xuan knew that the quality of this film should be top-notch!
"Sure enough, with modern filming techniques and the imaginative content of zombie films, the quality is much better than the original!"
The scene continued.
Su Yao, beside Lu Xuan, watched the film's content with great interest.
The unique traditional costumes, the down-to-earth attire, and the eerie presence contained in the story's setting.
These elements are particularly attractive.
This type of film has never appeared in the mainland market before.
From the opening scene of the fight, Su Yao felt that she was deeply captivated.
She didn't feel this way when she only heard Lu Xuan's description before.
It immediately draws you into the plot!
However, as the plot unfolded, Su Yao became a little scared.
"These zombies are so ugly!"
Green faces and fangs, hideous expressions!
Su Yao held Lu Xuan's hand while snuggling into his arms.
Lu Xuan laughed and said, "What, did you want me to make them cute?"
At the same time, he nodded silently in his heart.
Not only in terms of filming techniques, but also in terms of costumes, props, and makeup, Lin Ying strictly followed his standards.
Moreover, the actors' acting skills are online, and there are no awkward moments.
After watching the whole thing, Lu Xuan felt that it should pass his standards.
Lin Ying had been watching Lu Xuan's expression, and only when he saw Lu Xuan nodding in satisfaction did he breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as Lu Xuan thinks it's okay, then this film is a success!
Lin Ying stood up, paused the finished film, looked at Lu Xuan, and asked, "Director Lu, this is all the content."
"According to the censorship standards, there should be no problem for this film to be released here."
"But what about your side?"
Lu Xuan thought for a moment and said, "I think it should be fine."
"Overall, there are no major shortcomings. In terms of censorship, it can be released simultaneously here and in the mainland."
"This way, a lot of risks can be avoided."
Hearing Lu Xuan's suggestion, Lin Ying wrote down these points and then started playing *Mr. Vampire*.
The filming process of these two works can be said to have been very difficult.
Especially the expressions of traditional Taoist practices involved.
Lin Ying put in a lot of hard work.
*Mr. Vampire* began to play.
Su Yao, who had already watched *Vampire Expert*, whispered in Lu Xuan's ear, "I think this kind of movie is so exciting!"
"It's just that when I watch it, I'm a little bit scared!"
"But when Uncle Jiu appears, I'm not afraid anymore!"
"It feels much more fun than watching foreign horror movies!"
Su Yao's face was flushed as she looked at Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan patted her head and said, "Of course, don't you see who created it?"
Sure enough, the quality of *Mr. Vampire* did not disappoint Lu Xuan.
In Lu Xuan's opinion, this uncut version is already very perfect.
Moreover, thanks to Lu Xuan's guidance, the best filming equipment was used.
The picture quality, whether in terms of texture or tension, is much more perfect.
Especially the feeling of horror, always within a certain threshold.
Lu Xuan nodded repeatedly as he watched.
"Yes! That's the taste!"
After watching, Lin Ying turned the lights back on.
"What do you think of these two films?"
"Now that they're filmed, now we need to study when to release them."
"The best time should be the May Day Golden Week."
Hearing Lu Xuan's affirmation, Lin Ying's mouth almost stretched to his ears.
"I have no objection, I'll listen to you."
Lu Xuan waved his hand.
"These are the works you filmed. In theory, these are your children."
"So I still want to hear your opinion."
Seeing Lu Xuan's sincere expression, Lin Ying lowered his head slightly and said his thoughts.
"Although the movies haven't been released yet, I have full confidence in them!"
"After all, there are no similar-themed movies in the domestic market yet."
"As long as the publicity funds are in place, the box office will definitely give us a surprise!"
Lu Xuan has the same judgment.
Then how to publicize it is the key.
Lu Xuan thought for a moment and said, "I'm very satisfied with the quality of the films. Now I'll communicate with the company about the publicity arrangements."
"Wait a moment, I'll make a call."
Lu Xuan planned to finalize the plan today.
He came outside and called Aunt Liu.
"Aunt Liu, I have two films in a series, *Vampire Expert* and *Mr. Vampire*, which you have seen before."
"Now I need you to help me assess the market."
After hearing this, Aunt Liu immediately started compiling the data.
After waiting for a while, Aunt Liu's voice came, "According to the market department's analysis, as long as the funds are in place, the box office will definitely not disappoint us."
"Unless there is a particularly good zombie-themed work that appears on the market earlier than us."
"Otherwise, we will exclusively occupy this blue ocean."
Aunt Liu's answer made Lu Xuan think for a while, and then he continued to ask.
"What about the publicity funds?"
"If we publicize two movies at the same time, will the financial pressure be high?"
Speaking of this, Aunt Liu chuckled.
"If it was before the New Year, I'm afraid there would still be some pressure."
"But after the New Year, our company's novel website had a big explosion, and the company's other businesses also achieved a certain degree of growth."
"We have more than enough funds."
With Aunt Liu's guarantee, Lu Xuan felt relieved.
He already had a plan in mind.
But he was still a little curious about the company's current situation.
Although the businesses he had handled had been sent to his email, he had been too busy these days and had not had time to look at them.
"What's going on with the novel website?"
"Because of the appearance of *Chinese Paladin*, our total number of users has now exceeded 100 million, and the real-time online number has also remained at tens of millions."
"Our revenue has reached a new high."
This was an unexpected surprise.
Lu Xuan originally thought that the explosion of the novel website would have to wait for a while.
Unexpectedly, he saw the results now.
Woohoo~ Congratulations!
