Chapter 194 This Drama is Your Responsibility

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Li Hao agreed and immediately drove to Lu Xuan's house.

He knew that Lu Xuan rarely spoke to him in that tone, so it must be something important.

Lu Xuan saw Li Hao arrive, opened the door, and invited him in to sit down.

He poured him a cup of tea.

"You called me over so urgently, what's so important?"

He was a little worried but found that Lu Xuan just looked at him calmly.

"Don't worry, I didn't call you for anything else. I just finished writing a script for a TV series, and I think you're perfect for it. I hope you can film it."

Lu Xuan glanced at Li Hao as he spoke.

"I believe that with your current ability, this TV series will be absolutely no problem. Moreover, this TV series is the first one our company has created. When choosing actors, you must be able to portray the feeling of each character."

"In addition, the actors must understand each character well. This is a period drama, so the historical requirements are relatively high. The troublesome part may be that you need to study the historical background at that time, including the construction of the scenes, and so on."

"A TV series?!"

Li Hao said incredulously, "You said you want me to film a TV series?"

He didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

Lu Xuan had said before that he would give him a script to film, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"What's wrong? Are you unwilling? Or…?"

Lu Xuan found Li Hao's reaction very strange.

Wasn't he being clear enough? Or what?

"No, no, it's just that I didn't expect you to be willing to give me such a good opportunity. Thank you so much."

"It's nothing. It doesn't matter what else happens, as long as you film this drama well."

Lu Xuan had no other thoughts. The only thing he needed Li Hao to do well was this.

Because as long as *Empresses in the Palace* was filmed well, it would definitely be popular for several years.

As long as Li Hao filmed it seriously,

and carefully selected the actors.

"What TV series are you letting me film?"

"*Empresses in the Palace*. Here's the script."

Lu Xuan handed the script of *Empresses in the Palace* to Li Hao to take a look.

Li Hao took the script and carefully flipped through it, reading it from beginning to end without saying a word.

He was probably engrossed in it, frowning from time to time.

After reading it, he exclaimed, "This is a Qing Dynasty drama? And so many women's roles. The final winner is actually this woman named Zhen Huan. This drama looks very different, not like those female lead stories before."

"So, do you think you can do it?"

Lu Xuan wanted to see what Li Hao thought.

"I don't know if I can. No wonder you said to choose the actors carefully. Each character in here has a different persona. If the characters aren't chosen well and the characters aren't understood, problems will indeed arise."

But at the same time, it was precisely because each female character was charming.

Even Consort Hua had her own charm.

At first, he thought she was just a willful and headstrong woman, but later he realized that she wasn't so hateful after all.

Even just reading the script, he thought it was excellent, let alone anything else.

"I think this script is really well-written. I'm very worried that I won't be able to capture the beauty in it!"

"You don't need to think too much. You just need to say whether you're willing to film it or not. No one is born knowing how to do things, and I wouldn't have chosen to involve you if it weren't for your good abilities."

Lu Xuan didn't care about other things, but he was very serious about *Empresses in the Palace*.

It was just that he really couldn't spare the time.

Moreover, Li Hao's personality was actually very suitable for this TV series. He was good at slow and meticulous work, and he was also very detail-oriented.

He could better discover and coordinate each female character.

Lu Xuan laughed.

Li Hao thought of what he had said to his grandfather in a bet before.

He felt that Lu Xuan was definitely helping him achieve this goal.

Since he wanted to make a name for himself, why not help him?

As long as this drama wasn't just carelessly fooling around, it could definitely be filmed well.

Li Hao was still a little hesitant.

He knew what Lu Xuan meant; this was his chance.

If he kept worrying and hesitating about whether he could do it, he would never be able to do it in his life.

Moreover, this script was really well-written.

He looked at the script again. If he gave up on such a good script, he would never forgive himself in his life.

In any case, he had to work hard once.

"You have to believe in yourself. You studied professionally and understand these ancient things. You're so good at research. I can't rest assured if I let someone else film this drama. And can you bear to let this script be filmed by another director?"

Lu Xuan's words made Li Hao silent again.

He felt that it was just like Lu Xuan said.

After seeing this script, he couldn't calm down anymore.

What if *Empresses in the Palace* was given to someone else to film, and it wasn't filmed well?

He really couldn't bear to see such a thing happen.

Moreover, the palace intrigue in *Empresses in the Palace* made him feel pretty good.

It was completely different from other palace dramas.

Especially when each character passed away, it could also tug at people's hearts.

"I, I can film it."

Li Hao felt that this drama was really good. He should accept it. After thinking about it seriously, he looked at Lu Xuan seriously and said, "I want to film it."

"I hope I can be entrusted with filming *Empresses in the Palace*. I promise to film it well!"

Lu Xuan saw Li Hao say this, and a smile appeared on his face.

"That's good, I'll leave it to you. Don't forget, this drama is our company's first TV series. Whether or not we can build a bigger reputation depends not only on my responsibility, but now you also shoulder this responsibility."

Li Hao nodded heavily.

After seeing Li Hao off, Lu Xuan sighed deeply.

He still had too few people around him now. If he could have more people, he could film more dramas.

But there was no use in rushing now.

Currently, relying on *Brotherhood of Blades 1* had only just made a name for him.

When his *Mr. Vampire* and *Empresses in the Palace* came out, there would be word-of-mouth.

With good works in hand, the company could also gain a foothold.

At that time, even if he didn't ask to recruit people, talents would take the initiative to come and hope to join their company.
