Chapter 115 Just An Otaku

Originally, Zhou Yu was looking forward to the new movie, but in the end, nothing was made. Fortunately, Xia Huan did not get angry about it. He laughed and said, that it was the lucky day for his company employees. They could have a good time in the amusement park. They could delay the work and start again two days later.

Two days, it was enough for Zhou Yu to make the venues that were needed to make the movie.

The B-Rated script “Dragon’s Treasure”, which continued the fantasy adventure style of “Fruit Pirates”, was also a script that Zhou Yu liked. However, the movie’s male lead was originally the male supporting actor of “Fruit Pirates”, and Little Niannian’s role, this time, was the female lead – Little Muli’s older brother.

Looking at the actors, Zhou Yu suddenly realized a problem. The actors had not been changed. It is like Goku from the anime “Dragon Ball” suddenly wears a school uniform and appears in the anime “Daily Lives of High School Boy”. No matter how one looks at it, it just does not feel right.

For the people from the real world, the roles of the ACG world are fixed and unique. Unlike the real world actors who can act multiple roles in different movies.

To solve this problem, Xia Huan brought Makeup Artists. Seeing her brushing a few times, changing the hairstyle of the male lead and then putting on a special costume, the male lead now looked like entirely a different person.

It was truly the ACG world. Changing a hairstyle could easily become a different person.

Little Muli was also the same. Zhou Yu almost couldn’t recognize her after the makeup. But she was still that cute. Her character was a rather high-spirited girl. After reading the script and putting the makeup on, the original shy and timid characteristics instantly disappeared. It was replaced by cheerful laughter and unruly personality, somewhat similar to Firefly.

Being able to get into the role so quickly, she was truly a professional actor.

This was something that little Niannian couldn’t compete with. Although he had been staying in the entertainment circle for more than a year, his acting skill didn’t change much. One of the reasons why the score of Fruit Pirates was lowered, was that little Niannian’s acting skill was very easy to attract many criticisms.

But this time should be fine, since he was no longer taking the leading role. So he would not attract a lot of attention.

Actors were the most scarce profession in Luhua Village, so Zhou Yu always paid close attention to them. After checking all the actors brought by Beidou, Zhou Yu found that this profession was actually quite complicated.

Shapeshifter: can transform into different species according to the director’s requirements. Since it is called “Dragon’s Treasure”, of course, it must have a dragon. Therefore, there must be one shapeshifter.

Extra: a miserable profession. They are doomed to play miscellaneous roles from birth. But management companies like to raise extras because they are very obedient. Although they don’t earn much, as long as they work hard, they would not be troubled by food problems.

Comedian: performing interludes in between the main plot. Their unique comedic talent can spice up the show. Although it is not a leading role, it is equally important in a movie. Especially in a comedy movie. They are even more important.

It seemed that there was still a long way to go if Zhou Yu wanted to build up a team of actors.

Zhou Yu started making big movie scenes again, and he also took out his camera and ready to shoot the new movie. Zhou Fu naturally arrived at the scene the first. During this period, he had worked very hard to absorb a lot of relevant information.

Regarding Zhou Yu easily handed his movie out to other people, Zhou Fu was quite dissatisfied.

God knows how much benefit those people have split already. You must know that the earnings of a movie are not just box-office earnings. From the contract that Zhou Yu had previously signed, it was clearly not the best deal for him.

In fact, Zhou Yu himself also knew it clearly as well. Almost all the companies are always seeking for the maximum profit. Nowadays, good companies that have conscience have already died out.

So what? If Zhou Yu is the kind of person who would negotiate every term with other people or even enjoy doing business, he would not choose to stay at home.

For example, Zhou Yu had a total of sixty percent shares of the Fruit Pirates’ profit. If he had negotiated actively, he would have gotten all of the shares. Then the problem would arise. In order to get the additional forty percent, Zhou Yu would need to actively participate in business activities, and gradually he would become a completely societal person!

But would Zhou Yu want that to happen?

The answer is, of course, No.

If he has that time, he’d rather make some more good animated movies for himself and children.

Societal people have their own ways of living, and otakus also have their own lifestyles. If they aren’t causing trouble to anyone, there is nothing to criticize about. So as long as the other party is not evil, he doesn’t mind to give them all the shares.

Of course, Zhou Fu certainly did not think that way. However, in terms of Zhou Fu’s persuasion, Zhou Yu would only listen to it, but he would not do it. Even if he has acquired a superpower, he only wanted to live in a leisurely life, instead of suddenly becoming ambitious and wanting to dominate the world.

One’s character decides the direction of their life paths. Zhou Yu is lazy to his bones, and he does not even want to step on the path that leads to the business world, let alone moving forward on that path.

Zhou Fu, who was extremely helpless in this regard, had only one choice, which was to do it personally. As for how much profit he was able to get, it depended on how much he had learned. So when Zhou Yu picked up the camera again, Zhou Fu immediately took part in it.

Although he was still not familiar with it, as long as he carried on learning it, he believed that he would eventually be able to master it.

Regarding Zhou Fu’s participation, it was very welcomed by Zhou Yu. As it has been said before, societal people have their own ways of living, and Otakus also have their own lifestyles. But just because they have their own ways of living, it does not mean that they would dislike each other.

Since Zhou Fu wanted to get into this kind of business, Zhou Yu would also support him. Of course, it would only be moral support.

And it was under the premise that he would not drag him into it.

…………………….

The news that Zhou Yu was making the second animated movie, soon, came out of the amusement park. After the huge response of Fruit Pirate, many people were looking forward to Fruit Pirates 2 or other works of Beidou Studio.

However, for a long time, there was not any news from Zhou Yu or Beidou studio, which made many animation fans very anxious.

Now, at last, there was something.

It was still Zhou Yu that young man, and he made a fairly large model in the shooting studio, which was more detailed and complete than the previous naval military port. Although only a few photos were leaked out, people could still see that the production was very delicate.

It was the collectors’ favorite.

As a result, many fans set off for Luhua Village immediately. Although they did not know the details, just looking at the filming studio could still bring them endless imagination.

Of course, those, who once sold the repaired ships, were also the same. They all began to head to Luhua village, like sharks that smell blood from far away.

Unexpectedly, the shooting location of Dragon’s Treasure also became a scenic spot.

It would only be open to tourists when there was no shooting schedule. But tourists could only see and film it from the outside of the isolation zone. They could not even get closer to the shooting area, let alone taking anything away.

Failing to see the value of damaged ships, treating them as rubbish, and giving them away had already become a big stain in Zhou Fu’s life. So this time, he would make the same mistake again.
