Sweet Wife in My Arms Chapter 595 – I Have Been Promoted To A Producer

Chapter 595: I Have Been Promoted To A Producer

“I want to star in a new year movie,” Su Muran requested of Yan Hua.

She had always held a seed of hatred in her heart as she had missed the Best Actress award again. Now that she had heard of Yan Huan’s investment in a blockbuster new year movie, and that Yan Huan had been making full use of her spare time while filming The Absence of Heavenly Dragon without taking any rest, she could no longer stand it.

“We don’t have the time to film,” Yan Hua was used to Su Muran being unreasonable, but now he could treat her like a total idiot.

“Why didn’t we start earlier?” Su Muran was calculating the timing. It was already October. Even if she wanted to film, she could only schedule it for next year. She was feeling discontented, she would not feel at peace if she missed the opportunity this year.

“Didn’t you want to do that Heavenly Dragon show?” Yan Hua felt that the more time he spent with Su Muran, the more his intellect started to diminish. Originally, he thought that if there was a time, he was aiming to get a blockbuster and seize the chance to get featured in this year’s New Year blockbuster roster. He had checked this year’s blockbuster schedule, there were no films with major investors. Most of them were 2D films, so it was a good opportunity to earn box office and rating wins. However, Su Muran had insisted on doing Heavenly Dragon. The completion of a major drama like Heavenly Dragon was not guaranteed. By the time they finished, it may be next year’s May already. They might not even be able to do the following year’s blockbuster if it came to that.

Anyway, they had already missed the best timing, and that was this year. It was unexpected that there were no 3D films in the blockbuster market, and this allowed the newly created company, Linlang to seize a good opportunity. If the film’s quality was solid and the reviews were good, the New Year’s primetime would be theirs. Based on his understanding of Yan Huan, she would not do something that she was not confident in. It was never to be forgotten that her title of Box Office Elixir was not earned in vain.

What he wanted to know most was how much Yan Huan could earn at the box office this time.

Yan Hua could not help but sigh. A weak teammate truly did more harm than a strong enemy.

Regardless of how much Su Muran was eyeing the New Year’s primetime, they only had five months left. Even if he had the ability to move heaven and earth, he could not create a blockbuster out of thin air. The vetting procedures for blockbusters were extremely strict, they would not simply allow any film to be released.

So, if Su Muran wanted a New Year blockbuster film, he only had three words for her.

In your dreams.

It would only be possible for her to take part in a blockbuster film if Heavenly Dragon wrapped up early next year. But that was next year, and they were still in the current year. Who knew what it would be like next year.

Su Muran and Yan Huan were not the only people in the world.

There were many actors with fame and acting expertise, and there were quite a number with money and connections as well. The quality of films was usually uneven, but those that got on to the New Year roster were usually not too bad. The success of the film was eventually dependent on luck and the opponents you were up against.

He truly felt that Yan Huan’s luck was a little out of the world.

In fact it was not that Yan Huan’s luck was otherworldly or extremely good; it was because Yan Huan had been aware of the film industry’s trends in recent years. Although it had only been a few years since she did not live past 30 years old in her past life, it had been enough to allow her to plump her feathers and grow her strength.

The post-production of White Fox was still ongoing. Yan Huan had received a few good endorsement deals lately. Linlang had indirectly invested in a few co-produced films which had achieved good results, and all the artists under the agency were developing steadily. The company had also groomed a number of newcomers. These new actors and actresses were bringing in a lot of income and popularity to the company.

If Linlang’s first film investment sold well, then Linlang would be able to dominate the film and television industry.

The post-production of White Fox would be completed in December, and it would run for 127 minutes. Yan Huan felt that the current shots could no longer be refined, any less would be a waste of their effort.

“Can we not cut it?” Yan Huan asked Lu Yi. “All these scenes were shot with much effort. We’ve already eliminated a lot, do we still have to reduce it even more?”

“I will try my best,” Lu Yi promised as he ruffled her hair. He had been so busy that his dark eye circles were showing, and he had also lost a fair bit of weight.

Yan Huan pursed her lips. She hoped that Lu Yi’s connections with the broadcasting department were solid enough. She also hoped that her film could withstand these trials, and that the reduction of scenes could be minimal.

After a few days, White Fox lived up to its expectations by clinching the spot for the year’s New Year blockbuster movie. It was scheduled to premiere on the first day of the New Year with 126 minutes of run time. Only one minute was redacted, this was the best they could get. It was a tiny scene that was removed and it did not affect the flow of the film.

Yan Huan could finally sigh in relief. Now, besides the advertisements that she occasionally took on, she was no longer accepting any film offers. She was just waiting for White Fox to be released. Of course, she now had the time to rest well at home. However, New Year was just around the corner.

When Su Muran was free, she would be publicly displaying her affection with Lu Qin. She wanted to regain the feeling of being valued again. Their popularity did rise a little though. This was especially true for Lu Qin. After shooting a few advertisements, his fame had risen and he seemed to have gained some popularity.

The week after the New Year would be Old Master Lu’s lunar birthday.

It seemed unjustifiable for Yan Huan to refuse to attend such an occasion. She had never been present for the past few New Years, ever since marrying into the Lu family three years ago. This would be her first time attending Old Master Lu’s birthday celebration.

It was so in her past lifetime, and this lifetime too.

In her past life, Old Master Lu would curse her ancestors and comment rudely about their graves whenever he had the chance. Every time after his birthday, Yan Huan felt like she would be grumpy and cranky for at least half a year. She would then need another half a year to rest her temperament, and then she would face the same torture again.

However, Old Master Lu would not criticize her so blatantly now.

After all, she was not the only member in the Lu family who was in the show business now.

Yeah, she was no longer the only actress, there was also Lu Qin.

However, she had missed out one person as Lu Qin had married another actress.

Old Master Lu was still the same. There was not a single trace of change compared to his last birthday. He did not grow fatter, thinner or older. His ability to snort and stare in rage was more or less the same too.

“Prostitutes have no mercy, actors have no morals,” he uttered the saying again when he saw Yan Huan.

“Grandpa, are you talking about Lu Qin and Ms. Su? After all, I have been promoted to a producer now,” Yan Huan smiled naively. Who doesn’t know how to play the fool?

Old Master Lu choked violently.

Lu Yi pinched her finger helplessly, gesturing her not to go too far. After all, that man, however rude, was still his grandfather, not just any Tom, Dick and Harry.
