Chapter 754: Chapter 755 "Fox Fairy Legend

```

Fortunately, every idea Jinxia came up with was right, and even if she made a mistake, Luo You could correct it afterward; therefore, he treated her as a grown artist, tearing up as he delegated authority and let her grow freely.

Originally, Luo You was not an agent with a strong need to control, and the fact that He Jinxia could bring him to such frustration was because the matters she had concealed were too serious.

After some genuine consolation, Luo You finally calmed down, no longer as upset, and said solemnly, "When you decide to get married in the future, you must tell me in advance, I don’t want to be the last to know."

He Jinxia’s face turned slightly embarrassed; she had once thought that marriage was a distant matter, but after traveling back to ancient times with Sheng Yan, she felt they had grown much closer and mentally cast themselves as a married couple.

In ancient times, they had already held a "breathtaking" wedding ceremony, and it was she who had saved a fortune to marry Sheng Yan!

Thinking this, He Jinxia’s lips curled into a smile, and she let out a soft chuckle.

Luo You did not wait for an answer from He Jinxia, but he received her smile that was sweet enough to cause a dizzy spell, needless to say, she was definitely thinking about Sheng Yan!

He shivered, suddenly feeling that as a single man, he would suffer a lot in the days to come...

Luo You considered snatching up the girl he had been introduced to two years ago, joining the ranks of lovey-dovey couples, refusing to be bombarded with their displays of affection, and cleared his throat vehemently.

He Jinxia came back to her senses and repeatedly promised that she would notify him first if she ever decided to get married.

After the small talk was over, it was time to discuss business.

Luo You took out a document folder from the desk and handed it to He Jinxia; it looked much thinner than the one he had given her last week.

He Jinxia opened it and saw that it was a movie script.

"You had a car accident, and there has been no clarification about your physical condition online. Many people in the industry do not believe the company’s statements, thinking it’s an excuse to pacify the fans.

Some production teams have already apologized to me, saying they are sorry.

I have weeded out the films that canceled your cameo appearances; the remaining ones are from groups that believe my assurances and think you will soon be healthy enough to work."

He Jinxia pondered for a moment and asked, "I just clarified the rumors and proved I am healthy. Won’t those production teams that withdrew their invitations reconsider...?"

Luo You calmly said, "Opportunities come only once; I won’t accept scripts from them again. You were never going to do that many movie cameos anyway; you have your own business to attend to. Besides, with your main focus on recuperating now, you can’t afford to overexert yourself by filming more."

He sighed lightly, "To be honest, I didn’t even want to show you these remaining films, but I had promised the directors I would deliver them into your hands. I’d feel bad deceiving them; take a look if you have some free time in the next few days."

He Jinxia held the document folder carefully in her hands, "I will take a look. I’m actually quite grateful that they weren’t misled by the rumors and chose to trust me. There’s a part of me that feels like filming every single one of their cameo roles."

She paused, then let out a wistful smile, "But that’s impossible."

Even for cameos, the roles she played had to have something appealing about them.

Previously, the role of the Charming Songstress in "World" and the first love in "Crash Through the World" had been chosen because the former involved rare physical interactions with Sheng Yan, while the latter was one of the few female characters in the movie, serving as the male lead’s "white moonlight" and holding special importance, which is why she decided to take them on.

If a role was lackluster and merely for a quick appearance, she would not accept it.

He Jinxia wasn’t about to spoil her vision for selecting scripts just for a virtual image of being a "lucky fish."

Picking out cameo appearances in films had been ongoing since before the accident, and the topic was an old one. Luo You then pulled out another document, with an expression more serious than before—

```

"This one is a major production," he said.

He Jinxia felt a chill in her heart, and her expression became solemn. "Weren’t there no news of the company preparing any major productions recently?" she asked.

"This isn’t something the company found for you; it’s Director Zhang who personally sought you out."

"Director Zhang?" He Jinxia asked with confusion, unable to recall which director that was in the moment.

She opened the file and saw the script cover that read, "Fox Fairy Legend — A Major Fantasy Film, A Love Between Human and Demon," her eyes narrowed slightly and a vague impression flashed through her mind.

Brother Luo’s voice came to her ears, "You forgot, last year when you attended the Bazaar Charity Dinner, you agreed to shoot films for both Director Liu and Director Zhang; both directors make fantasy films with special effects, one’s a movie and the other’s a TV series."

He Jinxia had a flash of realization and remembered completely: "Oh, Director Zhang, right—I did have such an encounter. I thought they were just casually mentioning it for fun."

But in fact, not only did they mention it, but they also followed through. The fantasy TV series Director Liu had her shoot was already finished, and now Director Zhang’s special effects movie followed closely behind. These two people...one had to admit they really had a fate with her.

He Jinxia thought with a wry smile.

Luo You said seriously, "This film is looking directly for you as the lead actress, and you’re at the peak of your rising career, so we have to be very strict about the films you take. That’s why as soon as the script arrived, I first showed it to the company’s top management.

The top management’s judgment is that this is a blockbuster, whether you take it or not is up to you."

He Jinxia detected some other implications in his last sentence, "What are the senior management’s thoughts on this film?"

Luo You pondered for a moment and spoke slowly, "I won’t hide it from you, Director Zhang has been preparing this fantasy special effects film for two years; a lot of people know about it and have been watching, but there are very few who are optimistic.

There are no true blockbuster special effects films in the country, everything is still in exploration; Director Zhang’s film is aiming to set a benchmark and break the status quo. If done well, it could potentially create a mark in the history of Huaxia cinema; if not, it will be a failed experiment."

He Jinxia then asked, "Aside from the special effects part, I want to know what the higher-ups think about the content of the film?"

Luo You: "It’s standard, nothing special. It’s a film propped up by special effects; as long as the effects are good, it can elevate a 5-point content to a 10-point effect.

But if it’s not done well, 5-point content will only show as a 3-point. The potential is great for success, but equally for failure; they are also uncertain."

He Jinxia furrowed her brows and spoke cautiously, "Let me go home and read through the script thoroughly, then I’ll think about it."

Something occurred to He Jinxia, and she asked, "Brother Luo, what about you? You must have read the entire script since you got it; what do you think?"

Luo You hesitated for a moment, and then said, "We’re already into August, and you don’t have a major production at hand; this is the only major drama that has extended an invitation to us. I think we should seize this opportunity.

If it becomes a hit, you will smoothly rise to the first rank. But—" He paused, his voice grew heavy: "The drama relies completely on special effects, and it’s really hard to say how it will turn out. What if you accepted it, and during that period, you get invited to other major productions? Wouldn’t you miss out?

After all, once you join the production team, you will be shooting for a whole half a year."

He Jinxia’s expression changed slightly, "Half a year’s time, that’s too long."

With that thought, Luo You’s concerns seemed quite reasonable; half a year could mean missing out on many opportunities.

Of course, as long as it was a good film, missing other opportunities was not a problem, but it was uncertain whether "Fox Fairy Legend" was worth the risk for her.
