Lu Gan picked it up and gave it a look-through. As the contents were the same as what he had said, he picked up the pen and signed his name.

Qian Wu also signed the contract and took it back with satisfaction. Then, he looked at Song Ci with a smile. “I have one last request.”

“Go on.” Song Ci raised her eyebrows.

“You haven’t announced to the public that I’m the director yet, have you?” Qian Wu asked.

“No, I haven’t,” Song Ci replied. After all, the contract had just been signed today, so she had not said anything.

Qian Wu heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good. I was planning to give myself a stage name so that I could start over. I want it to be lucky. Otherwise, it’ll be like my first three movies. Either it won’t be finished, be able to be released, or the box office will be dismal. No matter how you look at it, the impact won’t be good. However, if I change my name, hopefully, everything will go well. Perhaps it’ll be a big hit too.”

Song Ci nodded. This was very normal. People in the entertainment industry had the habit of changing names. If Qian Wu wanted to change his name, so be it. She did not mind. “Well then, Director Qian Wu, what will be your name?”

“My name will just be ‘Qian’. In another language, it means that money is rolling in. If the movie makes money, it’ll prove that I succeeded! I can’t fail again this time.”

Song Ci was so stunned that the teacup she picked up almost fell out of her hand. She looked at Qian Wu in shock and did not try to conceal the expression on her face. She said with a trembling voice, “What’s the name of our movie?”

Upon hearing this, Qian Wu raised his head proudly. “Let’s call it ‘Rebirth’.”

Song Ci was extremely excited when she heard the name of the movie. How lucky was she to be able to find another treasure? She wanted nothing more than to lift Shi Mingyu. If it were not for him, she would not have signed the contract with Qian Wu. She looked at the contract on the table again, Qian Wu’s name shining with a priceless light. If she could sign three offers with Qian Wu, Sunshine Media’s reputation in the industry would skyrocket.

Song Ci tried her best to maintain a smile on her face. “It’s a very good name. We have no problems with it.”

Seeing she had no objections, Qian Wu also smiled. “When you introduce me to everyone, I’d like for you to use my stage name.”

“Alright.” Song Ci still looked gentle. In the original book, Qian, the name of a famous director, came from the mouth of an actor pursuing the female lead. Readers of the book came to know him due to the female protagonist liking the best actor, Chu Yi. Coincidentally, the film Chu Yi won the award for had been shot by Qian. It was also because of this that the second male lead and the female lead shared a common language.

At that time, Qian was already a famous director at home and abroad. His life experience was also quite legendary. He became famous for shooting literary films. In the beginning, as no one thought highly of him, no one invested nor wanted to act in his films. He wanted to give up and leave the industry but persevered. With the mentality of bidding farewell, which could be considered a crazy mentality, he changed the female lead to a male lead and acted it himself. If it were not for the fact that he could not act as a woman, he would not have changed the script. He sold all his assets he and managed to finish filming ‘Rebirth’ with great difficulty.

No one expected that ‘Rebirth’ would explode in popularity. It won many awards, both domestically and overseas. He had been the screenwriter, played the lead actor, and directed all by himself. His farewell had opened up a bright and dazzling director’s life.

After shooting one literary film after another, he began to make more commercial and relaxing films. Perhaps it was because he had won too many awards or grown older and learned to be tolerant of the art film industry. He felt that making the audience feel happy was also an ability. However, he failed the first time. Some people said he had run out of ideas, but after his second try, he became the box office champion! While he was no longer young, his mentality was. That was why he could maintain the purest love for movies and figure out how to make movies touch people’s hearts.

When Song Ci was reading, she liked this background character very much. Perhaps because she was an actress, it was inevitable that she would yearn for such a good director. Now, she had actually met him and was even going to cooperate with him. Though… In the original book, ‘Rebirth’ would gain popularity. However, Qian Wu changed the script to the male lead and acted in it himself. Now that it was her playing the lead role, would it affect Qian Wu’s success? Would ‘Rebirth’ still win an award?
