Rebirth 1983: Starting from taking back the family property.

Chapter 531: Getting Involved in TV Dramas

Su Hu invited only relatives and friends to Su Heyuan's engagement party, which was a small circle. Many celebrities and media would come to the charity gala, and this was Lu Jiaxin's first appearance on social media.

Zong Shimeng specifically called her to tell her that it would be better to prepare an extra dress for the party in case of any emergencies.

Zong Shimeng said: "Once I went to a banquet and a waiter was bumped by a customer and the wine accidentally spilled on my dress. Fortunately, I brought an extra set, otherwise it would be embarrassing."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and thanked him, then asked, "Will there be a place to change clothes at the party?"

Zong Shimeng is experienced: "There is a place to change clothes. But if you want to change clothes, you must let the female bodyguard follow you, so that no one will barge in."

"Jia Xin, you are now wealthy. Not to mention those men who want to take shortcuts, even some young masters in Hong Kong want to marry you home, so you must be careful when attending banquets."

"I'm not trying to scare you. Once upon a time, a rich girl was taken advantage of when she was changing clothes. The incident was a big deal, and the girl went abroad to settle down and never came back."

Lu Jiaxin thought this was normal. In some places in the mainland, girls were bullied by men because of their ignorance. Even if they knew that the other party was scheming, they still married him. This was simply anti-human. Fortunately, with the progress of society, such things basically disappeared. Otherwise, my blood pressure would soar after hearing it.

"Has that bastard been punished?"

Zong Shimeng explained: "The man was also plotted against. The mastermind behind the plot was the admirer of the girl's fiancé. She wanted to ruin the girl's reputation and then marry the fiancé. In the end, the man was sent to prison for five years, and the woman was sentenced to twelve years."

Lu Jiaxin chuckled and said, "So I not only have to guard against men, but also women?"

Zong Shimeng did think so. After all, both of them were popular. "Let Miao Na follow closely and don't give those people any chance."

Lu Jiaxin thought it was interesting: "Sister Shimeng, those who know me think I'm going to a charity party, but those who don't think I'm going to the battlefield!"

Zong Shimeng was amused: "In fact, socializing is also a battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder."

Lu Jiaxin had no interest in such a battlefield. She didn't need to engage in social activities for ladies, and she would only attend banquets that were useful or meaningful to her.

When Nie Zhan came back in the evening, Lu Jiaxin asked him if he had encountered any weird things at the banquet: "Today, Sister Shi Meng told me about what happened at the banquet. There were scammers, some people tried their best to get invitations to get into the banquet to solicit investment, and some people had ulterior motives and wanted to get close to the sponsor."

Nie Zhan thought for a moment and said, "For high-end cocktail parties, those with ulterior motives or those who want to hook up with the sponsor cannot enter. Otherwise, those who let them in will be blacklisted. As for investment, if the project is good, there are plenty of people who will invest, and they will not use methods that are offensive to others."

Lu Jiaxin thought of Tian Pengyu's words and laughed, "You never know. Just like when making a movie, sometimes the script is very good, but the screenwriter is unknown and no one invests in it. At this time, someone needs to have a keen eye to discover such talents."

Nie Zhan smiled and said, "Why, are you planning to make a movie again?"

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "No, I want to make a TV series this time, a love-hate drama about a wealthy family."

Hearing the name, Nie Zhan lost interest.

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "You don't like it because you were born into a wealthy family. Ordinary citizens like us like to watch the bloody stories of love, hatred, and revenge among the wealthy." Such plots are not outdated thirty years later, let alone now. Of course, both male and female characters must be handsome and beautiful, so that they are pleasing to the eye.

Nie Zhan was speechless: "There aren't so many love, hate and vengeance among the rich families."

Lu Jiaxin chuckled twice: "Your Nie family can be made into a TV series. Well, when the time comes, the second female lead can refer to your mommy's love brain."

Okay, Nie Zhan has nothing to say.

Lu Jiaxin did what she said and started writing the script the next day. Although she had watched many Hong Kong dramas and popular idol dramas in Japan and South Korea in her previous life, she only wrote the outline of the script like last time. She still planned to find a professional screenwriter to write the specific content.

After writing the outline, Lu Jiaxin went to find Tian Pengyu.

Tian Pengyu read the outline and thought it was very good. The story was complete, but the content was too much and not refined enough: "The movie is only two hours long and cannot be finished. Boss, a lot of the content here will have to be cut."

"This is a TV script, not a movie script."

Tian Pengyu started reading it carefully again, "Boss, why don't you finish writing the script?"

Lu Jiaxin said, "It won't cost much to hire a top screenwriter to help write. By the way, didn't our company train two batches of students? How are they doing?"

Tian Pengyu immediately praised the two groups of students he recruited, saying that these students are not only good-looking but also very hardworking: "Some of them have already made cameo appearances in movies several times, and the directors all praised them for their talent. Boss, let's not hire outsiders for this drama, let's use our own company's people, right?"

Lu Jiaxin would not be led into a trap by him: "Important roles depend on the degree of fit. If the actors or students from our company are suitable, we will definitely use them. If not, we still have to look outside."

The heroine of this script is a rich girl whose family owns a jewelry store and a clothing factory. She is capable of managing the company, but her father prefers sons to daughters and wants to leave the company to his illegitimate son. The story revolves around the family, from the struggle for power and emotional entanglement to how the company resists the industry life cycle and reforms under the tide of the times to keep the company going.

What can Tian Pengyu say? Of course, he just does what his boss says: "Okay, I will contact the two editors I have worked with before. They both write fashion dramas very well."

The boss's work must have the best cast, otherwise it would ruin his reputation. The screenwriter must be the best, the director must be good at fashion dramas, and the costumes and props must also be excellent.

Thinking of this, Tian Pengyu asked: "Boss, what is your budget?"

Lu Jiaxin really hadn't thought about this, and said, "You control it yourself. By the way, just like last time, the professional knowledge involved in the TV series must be guided and checked by professionals."

She didn't want her TV series to become a joke, like many plots in later generations that were madly output by professionals because they were not rigorous enough or were imaginary.

Tian Pengyu smiled and said, "Of course. You can't pretend to know something if you don't."

So far, their company's movies have only had the costumes and jewelry for "Legally Blonde" provided by Green Forest and Wufu. Since it was the boss lady who was in charge, she naturally enjoyed different treatment. But for this TV series, they don't have to worry about the costumes and jewelry themselves.
