I SIGNED-IN FOR A BILLION DOLLAR MANSION FROM THE VERY BEGINNING - Season 2 Episode 42

After some deliberation, CEO Li looked at Lin Fan and smiled. “Lin Fan, I didn’t expect such a situation would still happen now.”

“There are many entertainment companies unwilling to buy the rights to your television series, but it doesn’t matter. Yuehua will always be behind you.”

“I’ve seen this script. It’s just as Teacher Tian Zheng said. It’s written very well. I’m also looking forward to you guys filming this television drama well.”

“But what I want to say is that even if this television drama can start filming, it might not have any investors.”

“Therefore, it’s quite difficult for us to film this television drama well,” CEO Li said as he looked at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan nodded. “CEO Li, it’s precisely because the outside world doesn’t think well of us that it would be more meaningful if we manage to succeed.”

“If there are no investors, I’ll invest in the drama,” said Lin Fan.

“No matter what, we have to film this television drama well. I also believe that this television drama will definitely not lose to Huace Pictures’ Star Garden.” Lin Fan said confidently.

CEO Li patted Lin Fan on the shoulder and said, “When the time comes, the company will also pay a portion of the money. Even if there aren’t any investors, we have to film this television drama well.”

After Lin Fan and CEO Li signed the contract, Yuehua bought the rights to adapt the script for 600,000 per episode.

There were a total of 36 episodes of “The Legend of Sword and Fairy”. In other words, Lin Fan’s script for “The Legend of Sword and Fairy” was sold for a total of 21.6 million!

When the 21.6 million yuan was transferred to his account, Lin Fan smiled.

He had earned another 20 million plus yuan. Although it wasn’t a lot, it should be enough money to start filming this television drama.

The current him had 300 million in cash.

If his drama did not have investors, he could get enough funding by relying on himself!

Although this television drama was a tragedy, and other companies did not think highly of

it,

the actors from Yuehua Entertainment and the actors who had worked with Lin Fan in Joy of Life previously liked Lin Fan’s new script very much.

“Brother Fan, I’m going to act in your script. Can you give me a role?”

“Brother Fan, how can your script be so interesting? It’s just a little torturous. I’m crying from reading it.”

“I’m really crying after reading it. How can the ending be like this? You said that it was very sweet at first, but in the end, it’s a separation between the two leads. If you act it out, it must be very heartbreaking.”

“Brother Fan’s productions are definitely top-notch! Those entertainment companies actually don’t think highly of Brother Fan’s script. After this television drama is filmed, it will definitely be a classic masterpiece!”

“No matter what, I believe in Brother Fan. I like this script very much!”

Many actors came to look for Lin Fan and asked him for a role.

After Lin Fan went through the screening, he chose many roles.

The male lead was still himself.

The female lead was Xia Wanqiu.

The supporting female roles were given to Su Xiaoyu and Lin Jingjing.

Xu Yang was casted as a supporting actor.

Yuehua could not afford to hire too many big-name celebrities. Almost all of the actors casted were from Joy of Life, and the remuneration was not high.

After deciding on the actors, they would decide on the producer and director.

“Brother Fan, you can be the director. All of us will be your team. The director of this television drama must be you,” Lu Benkai said. He admired Lin Fan very much. He also felt that only Lin Fan could be the director of this television drama.

When Lin Fan heard that, he nodded.

He could be a director.

During the filming of Joy of Life, Lin Fan had helped Lu Benkai a lot.

Initially, Lin Fan wanted Lu Benkai to be the director again but Lu Benkai admired Lin Fan too much.

They were all people who were involved in directing, but Lu Benkai had a deep understanding of how strong Lin Fan’s directing skills were.

When Lin Fan was the director, Lu Benkai had been learning from the side.

He felt the difference between Lin Fan and himself.

Although there weren’t any investors in this television drama, Lu Benkai was willing to be Lin Fan’s assistant.

Lin Fan’s directing skills were too strong. Lu Benkai felt that he could learn a lot from directing with Lin Fan.

He had already treated Lin Fan as his guiding light.

As for the producer of this television drama, it was Yuehua Entertainment.

Yuehua Entertainment had invested 250 million yuan into this television drama.

Then, Lin Fan also took out 250 million yuan and invested in “The Legend of Sword and Fairy”.

It was very simple. No one was even willing to buy the script, so why would anyone invest in such a television drama?

They were not even sure if this television drama would become popular.

In the eyes of many, they thought that this television drama would definitely fail.

A television drama that ended in tragedy probably did not match the mainstream of the current market, nor did it match the taste of the audience.

“Star Garden” was a very relaxed, interesting, and lively television drama. With Lin Kexin joining, the cast and investment lineup was abnormally strong, and it attracted a lot of investment.

After the script was confirmed, all sorts of staff were also confirmed.

The producer of this television drama was Yuehua Entertainment, the director was Lin Fan, and the male lead was Lin Fan…

This television drama would be Lin Fan and Xia Wanqiu’s second collaboration.

And this television drama was a Xianxia drama. Its style was completely different from the mainstream market today.

Faced with Xia Wanqiu’s contract terminations, the entertainment companies’ rejection, and the difficulties of not having investors, they still decided to start filming the television drama “The Legend of Sword and Fairy”!

On August 3, Yuehua officially announced the filming of “The Legend of Sword and Fairy” on Weibo!

When the news spread, it caused an uproar in the entertainment industry.

Everyone thought that Yuehua would use the second season of Joy of Life to fight with Huace Pictures’ “Star Garden”.

However, they didn’t expect that Yuehua didn’t film the second season of Joy of Life but instead filmed “The Legend of Sword and Fairy”.

When the news of filming was announced,

All of Lin Fan and Xia Wanqiu’s fans discovered another fact.

“Oh my god, the male lead of ‘The Legend of Sword and Fairy’ is Lin Fan, and the female lead is Xia Wanqiu again!”

“Furthermore, the original author of this television drama’s script is also Lin Fan. This is a script written by Lin Fan!”

“Look, the director of this television drama is also Lin Fan!”

“Oh my god, Brother Fan is not only a screenwriter, but he’s also going to be a director. Other than that, Brother Fan is also the male lead.”

“I’m going to follow this drama. This television drama must be very good. Although the second season of Joy of Life hasn’t been filmed yet, I’m still going to follow this drama!”

“Previously, there were people defaming Brother Fan and Xia Wanqiu. There were too many keyboard warriors. No matter what happens, I will always support my Prince Charming and Goddess!”

“The Legend of Sword and Fairy, charge, charge!”

All the fans were pleasantly surprised.

When Xia Wanqiu was being defamed by so many people online,

Lin Fan and Xia Wanqiu didn’t stand up to refute the rumors.

There were also many rational fans on the Internet. They could tell that these people were deliberately defaming Lin Fan and Xia Wanqiu.

Lin Fan’s method was to film a new television drama in response.

The name of this television drama was “The Legend of Sword and Fairy”!

For some reason, when the fans saw this name, they liked it very much and were filled with anticipation.

Because the main lead of this television drama was Lin Fan.

Even the director of this television drama and the original author of the script was Lin Fan!

These fans had an inexplicable feeling in their hearts.

If “The Legend of Sword and Fairy” could be filmed, it would definitely be another classic masterpiece!
