Seeing Lawrence Winters’ utterly puzzled expression, Edward Foster couldn’t help but laugh, feeling an urge to pat her head to calm her flustered deanor.
"Don’t be too surprised. It’s not entirely unexpected, right?" Edward gently comforted her, "Think about it, for soone with such great personal conditions, he’s so low-profile in the entertainnt industry, acting in only one movie a year and playing only supporting roles, yet he still lives comfortably. Even I, as his boss, am on brotherly terms with him. — Do you think soone like that would have a simple background?"
Lawrence Winters pouted, "I suspected he might have an extraordinary background, but investing such a large sum of money in his own film still surprises ."
"Alright, I’ll tweet sothing right away. You go ahead and introduce our new show. — How about that post-apocalyptic sci-fi script?" Edward said as he checked his watch, planning to leverage the evening rush on social dia to create a buzz.
Lawrence returned to her senses and quickly said, "No, the ancient xianxia story, let’s go with the poster image as well."
In that instant, she decided not to shoot the post-apocalyptic film, as it posed too many risks.
If it blew up, the returns would be greater than those from an ancient xianxia drama, but there’s also a high chance of it flopping, requiring even more investnt.
Now knowing that Lucas Harlow funded it himself, Lawrence wanted to avoid taking risks.
Let’s produce a hit series first, and if there’s a chance to get other investors, then we can think about doing the post-apocalyptic sci-fi drama.
Edward gave her a look, "During the script discussion earlier, weren’t you more into that post-apocalyptic script?"
"... Now I think an ancient xianxia series would be more appealing to the fans," Lawrence said with a bright smile, "My goal is to push Lucas to stardom, as for that post-apocalyptic sci-fi, we’ll leave it for later."
Edward didn’t quite understand Lawrence’s mindset, but Lucas had already entrusted the decision to her, so Edward didn’t argue and said, "Alright, I’ll go announce this project along with the key visual of the xianxia male lead."
Lawrence nodded, "I’ll support your tweet and simultaneously announce the casting process for other roles of the xianxia drama. We’re still missing the female lead, supporting actress, supporting actor, and extras."
"Great! Let’s coordinate well and turn this situation around once and for all!" Edward said, eagerly heading back to his office.
By five-thirty in the evening, NewHuman Entertainnt Ltd.’s official account tagged the illustrious Blue Heavy Industries.
[NewHuman Entertainnt Ltd.]: @Blue Heavy Industries, we are honored to have Blue Heavy Industries as our investor, creating a custom-made costu xianxia drama for their heir, Lucas Harlow!
The post included a visual featuring Lucas Harlow as the male lead.

"Unbelievable, Arthur Johnson even paid for a trending story claiming Lucas Harlow is kept by a rich woman... Find a rich woman capable of keeping the heir of Blue Heavy Industries!"
"Oh my god! No wonder! I’ve always felt Lucas Harlow had such a distinctive charisma! Like a graceful gentleman from the past! Turns out he really cos from an influential family!"
"And look, while others bring so capital into a production, he’s investing from a foreign-owned enterprise... Hahaha!"
Yet, so bystanders remained skeptical and said, "Just tagging Blue Heavy Industries’ official account makes soone their heir? A new way to whitewash an image, huh!"
But soon, those skeptics were proven wrong.
