Chapter 213 The Second Season

The news was about Lou Xiaobai, and Zhou Fu had also just received the news, and he came to Zhou Yu immediately after that. In fact, Zhou Fu was also surprised when he heard the news. The junior brother Lou Xiaobao was originally sent to be a martial arts instructor apprentice, but no one expected that because of some reason, he was selected by the director to be a guest actor.

Being a guest actor was still quite normal, after all, the appearance of Xiaobao was not bad, plus he was very young, it was surprising that he was chosen by the director. However, surprisingly, Xiaobao also seemed to have an extraordinary talent in acting. Anyway, the director was very satisfied.

Then things started to get out of control. Wherever he went, he would always be acting, and in the end, a film crew even specially asked for him to play a quite important role. There were even a number of management companies that expressed their intentions of wanting to sign up Lou Xiaobao.

Lou Xiaobao was completely new to the outside world. Without any social experience, in the face of these invitations, he didn’t know what to do, so he called back to ask the senior brother to make a decision for him.

In the face of this problem, Zhou Fu also did not know what to say. He was sent out to learn to be a martial arts instructor, but why did he suddenly become an actor? And when he talked to Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu was also surprised, because when he checked Lou Xiaobao’s talent in the past, he did not see “acting” this one.

Lou Xiaobao’s best talent was definitely a martial arts instructor, which couldn’t be wrong. So there were two possibilities why it became like this. One was that what he saw with the eyes of the ACG world was only the best talent, while other talents would be automatically ignored, and Xiaobao’s acting talent was actually also very high. The second one was that probably the requirements for the roles that Xiaobao needed to act were quite low. Maybe having some Kungfu knowledge, coupled with a good appearance was already enough to make him qualified.

If it was the first case, then Xiaobao’s future path should be decided by himself. Whether it was behind the scenes or in the scenes, they were both not bad for him, and since Xiaobao has been staying outside for a while, he should be able to make a good judgment as to what kind of life was more suitable for himself.

If it was the second case, then naturally he would persuade him to choose the path of martial arts instructor. After all, that path was much longer. It was not worth it to use the opportunity to learn a lifetime skill for a short acting career.

So Zhou Yu said, “uncle Fu please tell Xiaobao that if he wants to become an actor, I’ll absolutely support him, but his study of becoming a martial arts instructor should not be abandoned. Whether he would become a star or not, learning an extra set of skills is not a bad thing.”

Zhou Fu also felt the same way, though he did not know why Zhou Yu wanted Xiaobao to become a martial arts instructor. After all, he was just a kid, who knew only a little martial art, when he just came to the park. There were many people, who knew martial arts, in the world, but not everyone could become a martial arts instructor.

However, Lou Xiaobao’s thing was just a small matter, now the most important thing was still “The Little Muli’s Incredible Maze”.

The animated variety show was finally released and received a favorable response from all the platforms online. It also caused a heated discussion online.

A quality production, a new program, and a rich variety of games made people couldn’t stop praising this show online. And the content of the program was also very interesting. It was like an amine with multiple protagonists, and the games in each room were also brilliant.

But as the adventurers got deeper and deeper into the maze, the occasional conflicts between the twelve adventurers became more intense. Whether it was the temporary cooperation or the direct confrontation, it would always attract all the attention of fans. Usually, before the results were even shown, the comments section or the bullet screen had already exploded with comments.

Especially the black and white rose, as expected by Zhou Yu, with the double personalities of Moe and cold beauty, soon, she had a large number of loyal fans.

However, it was not just all good news.

The response online was good, but the show’s rating on the TV was not that good. Although it was not very bad, compared with some other variety shows, there was still some gap. After all, people who liked this usually watched it online, so it took some time for the TV audiences to accept it.

Zhou Fu could only sigh and said to Zhou Yu, “The show’s rating on TV didn’t live up to expectations. It is a huge loss for the TV station. In the future, if there are similar kinds of shows, I think they will think twice about it before working with us. But the response online is very good. It seems like we should be focusing on online platforms in the future. Boy Yu, you said before that this is only the first season, so when will the shooting of the second season begin?”

There were only 12 episodes in a season, and three months would pass very quickly. While the show is still very popular now, they should get season two done as soon as possible. Both the otaku gaming portal and the penguin company all thought the same. They all hoped to get a second season out as soon as possible and maintain the popularity.

Zhou Yu thought for a second and said, “you can rest assured that the script for the second season has been finalized. ‘the little Muli’s incredible maze — the killing intent within the imperial city’ will definitely be available after three months.”

Oba produced a total of four scripts. The script for the second season, “the killing intent within the imperial city”, Zhou Yu had also read it before. This was a script describing a palace coup. The show would recruit 12 participants to join a killing game, no matter which side the participants joined in, the last-standing participant would be the winner.

Political disputes, palace fights, the storm within the imperial city, and a grand scheme, it was also a very good script. If it was made into a normal anime TV series, then it would definitely be more than a dozen episodes. However, since it was just a variety show, naturally, they would have to cut out many scenes, so it was still a 12-episode show.

As soon as Zhou Fu heard that there was a script, he was delighted, “fortunately, the efficiency of Qin Zhuan is fast. The higher-ups of the otaku gaming portal and the penguin company all want to read the script first and see what kind of advertisement they will be able to add to the show. And then the otaku gaming portal also likes to have a little bit more collaboration from us. For example, they like to have the characters of some of the big games they’ve been working on recently, to appear in the variety show to promote the game indirectly. The penguin company also thinks the same too. They also want to bring some of the characters from their products into the show. They will get the publicity, and we can get the popularity, it’s a win-win situation.”

This was not a bad idea, but Zhou Yu did not know if it would have a conflict with the program of The ACG World. Moreover, the animation and the games produced in the real world, what would they look like in The ACG world? Since Zhou Yu had the eyes of the ACG world, he has never seen Naruto, Luffy, or some other anime characters like them in the ACG world, it made him wonder where those ACG world characters were.

Before he could find out the answer to this question, he should not promise them anything. What if he could not invite those characters into his show, then how was he going to shoot the program?

And to find out the answer to this question, he needed to find Xia Huan.
