Cloud Peak Scenery
Chapter 193 You're in Charge of This Movie
Their Xuanyao Film Dream Factory had only just started, and they needed a lot of people.
And Shang Lin's strength was good, and it matched his *Xiuchundao* (绣春刀; Embroidered Uniform Blade) series of films very well.
Moreover, the *wuxia* films he had in hand were not only the *Xiuchundao* series, but also other *wuxia* styles, including *wuxia* TV series, which could also be put on the agenda.
It could be said that Shang Lin definitely had a place to use his talents in their Xuanyao Film Dream Factory.
Moreover, *Xiuchundao 1* had already shown his strength.
And Shang Lin had personally followed this drama all the way.
With such a work, how could Shang Lin not nod his head?
He just thought about it for a while and agreed to Lu Xuan's words.
After Shang Lin agreed, Lu Xuan immediately made another call to invite Lin Ying to his house.
"I'll introduce you to a newcomer. He's the male lead of my other film. That film requires a lot of action scenes, so you're probably going to be busy."
"Really? What movie?"
Lu Xuan had already persuaded Shang Lin to join their company, and the contract was signed.
He had already made preparations, so naturally the contract was prepared in advance.
When Shang Lin saw Lu Xuan's contract, he looked at him in surprise several times.
Now that he had become one of his own, Lu Xuan told Shang Lin about the movie *Mr. Vampire*.
"You're planning to make a domestic horror film?"
Shang Lin didn't expect that Lu Xuan would dare to touch this subject.
"I asked someone, and it's okay for this movie to pass the censorship, but you still need to pay attention to some details."
The two chatted here for a while.
Lin Ying also came over quickly at this time.
Because Su Yao was not at home and went out to have dinner with friends.
So Lu Xuan ordered takeout and called for some barbecue, eating and chatting.
After Lin Ying arrived, Shang Lin thought that Lu Xuan was very unique.
If it were another director, Lin Ying's appearance would definitely not be possible to be the protagonist.
At most, he would be given a supporting role, or a supporting role with more scenes.
But being the lead actor was something that wouldn't happen for many years.
"This is Lin Ying, the male lead of *Mr. Vampire* that I told you about earlier."
Then, Lu Xuan introduced to Lin Ying, "This is Shang Lin, our company's martial arts instructor."
"Hello, Teacher Shang Lin!"
Lin Ying bowed to Shang Lin with a very good attitude.
He knew that Shang Lin would probably have more opportunities to get along with them in the future.
Lin Ying was a little hesitant after receiving the script.
But he had also seen *Xiuchundao 1*, and he also knew how successful Lu Xuan was.
Lu Xuan was optimistic about him, and he also wrote this script specifically, and the first actor he chose was him.
This made Lin Ying feel that Lu Xuan looked up to him so much.
If he refused, would it be too much?
Thinking of this, Lin Ying felt that he should be more serious.
"I have asked Shang Lin to be in charge of the martial arts direction of *Mr. Vampire*, so during the filming process, you can ask him about related issues."
Lu Xuan's words were already here, and Lin Ying understood.
If such a good opportunity is missed, it will be very difficult to get it in the future.
Shang Lin saw Lin Ying with his own eyes, and saw that he was also a very down-to-earth person, so he said: "Don't worry, I will definitely keep a close eye on it."
"Thank you very much. In fact, I think that in this movie, what I need to show is a feeling of a sweeping monk."
After thinking about it, Lin Ying continued, "My image, I was worried at first that it was not suitable to be the leading actor. Now in domestic movies, no one chooses someone like me..."
"But since the boss believes in me, I think I should shoot it, not only should I shoot it, but I should also shoot it very successfully!"
Shang Lin chatted with Lin Ying for a while.
Lu Xuan went out to get takeout.
After bringing over the large and small packages of barbecue, he put them on the table.
He saw Shang Lin and Lin Ying chatting enthusiastically.
Shang Lin originally believed in Taoism. In his eyes, Taoism is a native religion, low-key and mysterious.
Moreover, all the content in this script is so wonderful.
He couldn't help but marvel at it just by looking at it.
He also understood why Lu Xuan chose Lin Ying to play the role.
Because if it were replaced by other young people, they would not be able to play the demeanor and strength of a Taoist priest at all.
This feeling must have a face that looks very powerful or even trustworthy at first glance.
Someone like Lin Ying is so suitable.
"How did your brain grow? I've read this script, and I chatted with Lin Ying just now. I think your movie will definitely be a hit, and it can definitely catch up with your *Xiuchundao* movie."
"Then I'll take your good words."
Lu Xuan laughed and said, "Come and sit down, let's talk while eating."
"Actually, I have a lot of ideas in my mind. I hope to learn more about Taoist culture as much as possible, so that I can have a greater sense of faith."
"That's no problem. I know a few Taoist priests. If you want, you can ask them for advice."
Shang Lin thought for a while, then said, "But it's definitely not as mysterious as in the movie."
"Haha, movies all have a mysterious color, and they also specifically add horror plots, so they will definitely be somewhat different from reality."
However, even so, as long as he learns more about Taoism, he will be able to interpret it better.
"So, when are we going?"
Lin Ying ate a skewer of mutton in his mouth and looked at Shang Lin with anticipation.
Lu Xuan looked at it from the side, thinking that if it weren't for him here, these two would probably leave immediately.
Really, where did they put him?
Shang Lin couldn't bear to let go of the script.
"You don't know, there are very few Taoist films made in recent years. Even if Taoism occasionally appears, it always films scams or villains. Finally, finally, there are positive ones!"
"Don't be too anxious to be happy. The next filming is the focus. The martial arts scenes in this drama will depend on you."
"Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem!" Shang Lin patted his chest and assured.
After discovering that these two were very enthusiastic about *Mr. Vampire*.
Lu Xuan was wondering if his enthusiasm was not enough?
He took a sip of the drink, thought for a while, and said, "When do you think it's appropriate to start filming? Can I give you half a month to prepare?"
"Well, I want to study first and see what the real Taoist priests look like."
Lin Ying hoped to play this movie better.
Lu Xuan agreed immediately.
After sending the two away, Lu Xuan called Li Hao again, "Are you free recently? I have a very, very important task that I need you to be responsible for, but you have to come to my house now."
