Lu Yanhe has never reviewed the script with a group of actors like this, stepping into the character's perspective, speaking to the lines, and telling what he saw and happened.
I have participated in script readings before, but the atmosphere of that occasion was more like a meeting.
At night, Lu Yanhe was lying on the bed, fragments of the script flashing back in his mind.
I dreamed at night, dreaming that I was holding Chen Siqi and running through the night city.
It is an abandoned city, with ashes slowly falling at the end of the night.
Lu Yanhe woke up from a dream in the middle of the night and sat on the bed, his mind went blank, and he felt exhausted.
-
Fortunately, there was no drama about him in the morning.
Otherwise, he thinks he might have a headache today.
Lu Yanhe really didn’t know why he suddenly seemed to be seriously ill.
But he knows that all this stems from reworking the script with everyone yesterday. He vaguely felt that he was getting closer to the world where Meng Bai lived.
At eight o'clock, Chen Siqi suddenly sent him a message: Have you gone out?
When Lu Yanhe heard the vibrating sound of his cell phone, he opened his eyes, glanced at it, and was stunned for a moment. Then he remembered that he had made an appointment with Chen Siqi to meet Xu Xiaoyin this morning.
I need to communicate something with Xu Xiaoyin.
He sat up, rubbed his head, and said: I forgot, I am still in bed, I will come right away.
Chen Siqi: Are you still in bed at eight o'clock? Are you feeling uncomfortable?
Lu Yanhe said: No, I just didn’t sleep well yesterday. I woke up in the middle of the night. I didn’t fall asleep again for a long time and was very sleepy.
Chen Siqi: Then I will go and talk to Sister Xiaoyin myself. You can catch up on your sleep, and you can come over and have lunch with us at noon. I say other things don’t matter. Xu Mingyue’s business is still yours. It's more appropriate to open your mouth, she is your senior sister.
Lu Yanhe originally wanted to struggle over, but Chen Siqi sent another message: Don't force yourself to come over. It's not something that requires you to accompany me. Have a good rest.
Lu Yanhe was indeed sleepy, so he gave up, lay down again, replied with a good word, put his phone aside, and fell asleep again.
-
"Why didn't Yan He come today?" Xu Xiaoyin asked.
Chen Siqi said: "He didn't sleep well last night and fell asleep again in the morning. I told him not to come, to rest first, and then come over to have dinner with us at noon."
Xu Xiaoyin clicked head and asked: "He Are you filming recently?"
"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "He said it was a situation he had never encountered before. I originally thought that acting in this movie would be easier and not so tiring."< br>
Xu Xiaoyin laughed, "I watched Yan He's dramas. Except for "Six People", which he wrote himself, they were all bitter and hateful characters. I guess none of the dramas were really easy to shoot. You can tell by watching his dramas. It is not easy for him to act."
Chen Siqi handed the plan in his hand to Xu Xiaoyin and said, "Sister Xiaoyin, this is a supplement we plan to make. Please report it to the agency."
Xu Xiaoyin took it and nodded, "Okay, it's not a big problem. The sales of "Jump Up" are now very stable. If you make a supplement, the agency will give the green light. "
"We are going to publish this supplement first and then put it on the electronic shelves, and we have communicated with Yemai.com," Chen Siqi said.
Xu Xiaoyin was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.
Jiangyin Publishing House has always hoped that the sales of the magazine "Jump Up" can continue to increase. However, "Jump Up" seems to have reached a bottleneck period. The sales volume of recent issues has not increased much, and has remained at around 80,000 copies. In fact, it is not that the number of readers of "Jumping" has not increased, but that most of the readers that "Jumping" has attracted through the popularity and spread of the Internet still choose to read the magazine in the three-day free issue of Yemai.com, or Purchase the electronic version.
The audience for paper books seems to have come to an end.
Jiangyin Publishing House has been trying to get "Jump Up" to be canceled during the three-day free period of Yemai.com... Of course, this is basically impossible.
This is the cooperation framework negotiated from the beginning.
Canceling the three-day free period of "Jump Up" on Yemai.com will cause Yemai.com to lose hundreds of thousands or even millions of user traffic every month.
"Jump Up" is now the most stable channel for Yemai.com to attract new users.
Even "City Travels" in which Lu Yanhe participated did not have as good a traffic draw effect as "Jump Up".
Analysis of the reason is that several novel serials of "Jump Up" have consolidated regular readers, and in each issue, different stars and celebrities are invited to write columns or be interviewed, which is another Will attract some new readers.
"City Travels" follows the path of literary youth, and is not as popular as "Jump Up".
That’s why Chen Siqi came up with the idea of making a supplement.
The idea came out of the success of the Summer and Winter Issues.
The summer special issue and the winter special issue are still published on the normal schedule, but that issue has been turned into a special issue.
The supplement is a separate theme plan outside of regular publishing. It is a work outside of regular publishing.
Chen Siqi wants to make a supplement. Firstly, because there are so many manuscripts in "Jump Up" now that the layout of twelve issues a year cannot be effectively digested. Secondly, because everyone wants to do something innovative. However, not long after "Jump Up" was founded, they did not dare to take risks in the main issue, so they came up with the idea of creating innovative columns in the supplement.
This idea was also supported by Lu Yanhe.
Lu Yanhe has always felt that online novels are very developed in China, but there is no broad soil for short and medium-sized novels. This is actually a pity.
Especially for movies. Most of the time, long novels are not suitable for adaptation into movies. Instead, short and concise short stories are more suitable.
Some novels that do not fit the tone of "Jump Up" can be published in supplements.
The copyright agency that cooperates with "Jump Up" has been promoting the adaptation of some short stories.
Because of Lu Yanhe's relationship, the magazine "Jump Up" has also attracted much attention from the film and television industry, and has a unique advantage.
However, because neither Lu Yanhe nor Chen Siqi are willing to sell at a low price, so far, they have only negotiated an adaptation of Li Zhibai's short story.
Chen Siqi asked again: "How is the reprint of Miao Yue's "Late Spring" going?"
Xu Xiaoyin nodded and said: "I have successfully passed the topic selection meeting, and I am looking for a designer to design it. New cover."
"That's good." Chen Siqi smiled and said, "We will plan more and more single books in the future."
Xu Xiaoyin said: "The book market is sluggish now, but if the books by the authors in your "Jump Up" series can sell OK, I definitely give the green light.”
"With "Jump Up" for promotion, it won't be unsalable." Chen Siqi said, "Besides, you are also very professional editors. We will do the front-end and you will handle the back-end. Sister Xiaoyin, we will definitely be able to launch a batch of New writers are coming out.”
Chen Siqi and Lu Yanhe established Tiaoqiwen. China Media Co., Ltd. has slowly signed a group of writers who often contribute to "Jump Up". Basically, they are new writers, such as Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin, well-known writers who have signed contracts with Jiangyin Publishing House, Chen Siqi I didn't take any interest in them, I just signed a long-term contribution agreement separately and advanced the contribution fee for them.
Miao Yue signed with them because of special circumstances. She is also the only writer here who has published two books and is no longer a newcomer.
Xu Xiaoyin has always been very satisfied with Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi's approach in this regard. They are very clear that their focus is on making magazines, not on being a publishing agent. Setting up a company and signing new authors is also to better support a group of new people and help everyone operate and incubate copyrights.
It is impossible to hand over the copyright to someone like Liu Jiazhen to the author of "Jump Up". Chen Siqi did not lower his salary because of this, and he was given adequate treatment in all aspects.
When new authors signed by Chen Siqi and others want to publish a single book, they will give priority to cooperating with Jiang Yin.
For example, Miao Yue's "Late Spring" is reprinted.
Because Lu Yanhe stars, there are definitely many publishing houses willing to reprint "Late Spring".
Chen Siqi found Xu Xiaoyin directly.
-
At noon, Lu Yanhe rushed to the hotel with groggy eyes and said to Xu Xiaoyin: "Sister Xiaoyin, I'm sorry, I'm in a bad state."
Xu Xiaoyin looked shocked when she saw that Lu Yanhe had dark circles under his eyes.
She rarely saw Lu Yanhe like this.
"What kind of torture did you suffer on the set?" She couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Yanhe shook his head and waved his hand with a wry smile, "It's not the crew's torture, it's my own problem."
Xu Xiaoyin said: "In the movie "Nineteen Years of Crime", Ruyi finally decided to cast Chen Ziliang instead of Li Zhibai and Yan Liang. I heard the news and thought I had to tell you quickly."< br>
"Huh?" Lu Yanhe looked surprised, "Chen Ziliang? Is he going to act?"
Is Ru Yi crazy?
Xu Xiaoyin nodded, "Originally their first choice was you, but after you refused, they started to contact others."
"They actually looked down on Li Zhibaihe Yan Liang, choose Chen Ziliang?" Lu Yanhe was still in disbelief.
Xu Xiaoyin: "Chen Ziliang signed his film and television contract to Ruyi, so Ruyi gave him this meeting gift."
Lu Yanhe: "..."
Xu Xiaoyin: "And , Although he has not acted much, he is a big star after all."
"A big star with a notorious reputation," Lu Yanhe immediately added. Xu Xiaoyin smiled and said, "It's a pity, I really hope you can act in this movie."
"I decided to act in "Six People" at that time, so I gave up "Nineteen Years". In fact, it was because I didn't have time to act in "Nineteen Years". Otherwise, I would definitely have acted in "Nineteen Years". "Nineteen Years" would not have been able to accommodate my time. ." Lu Yanhe said, "The role I am looking for is only the second male lead."
"Yes, it is indeed a pity." Xu Xiaoyin nodded, "If it weren't for you, this novel would not be as good as it is." I don’t know when it will be known, maybe it has been dormant forever without being known.”
Lu Yanhe asked: “Does Brother Jia Zhen have a new work?”
“He is preparing. "But he hasn't decided what to write yet. Both "Nineteen Years" and "Spiral of Silence" were very successful, which put him under great pressure and he didn't dare to write another book easily," Xu Xiaoyin said.
Lu Yanhe said: "If Brother Jiazhen can't think of a good story for the time being, why not write a column first and write about his life."
Chen Siqi said: "We went to make an appointment for a manuscript, but he kept saying that he could not write prose and did not agree."
Lu Yanhe said to Xu Xiaoyin: "Brother Jiazhen is a very good storyteller. He tells stories My own life must be very interesting. I think many people must be interested in the daily life of a suspenseful crime novelist. ”
Xu Xiaoyin said: "Then I will talk to him again and see if I can convince him."
"Okay." Lu Yanhe laughed, "Actually, Sister Xiaoyin, we still have I have something to discuss with you."
"Huh?" Xu Xiaoyin was stunned, thinking that she had already said everything she wanted to say today.
"We hope that Senior Sister Mingyue will work with us full-time after graduation." Lu Yanhe said, "Siqi's work here is very busy, and there are more and more things to do. Senior Sister Mingyue used to work in Jiangyin. Internship, on behalf of Jiang Yin, we will connect with us. In the future, we will have to connect with Jiang Yin on more and more things, including daily magazine publishing, supplements, and writers. Our single book, etc., we need someone who is very familiar with Jiang Yin to take charge of this matter. It happens that Senior Sister Mingyue is very familiar with us and Jiang Yin, so she is the most suitable candidate. Therefore, we want to talk to you Let’s discuss this matter.”
“You’re here to poach someone.” Xu Xiaoyin couldn’t help but smile when she heard this, but she wasn’t surprised.
In fact, she had already had a premonition.
"Xu Mingyue is only an intern in our Jiangyin. If she wants to work with you, of course she can. The decision is in her own hands."
"She doesn't want this for herself. The decision affects our cooperation, and I am even more afraid of letting you down. She has always regarded you as her master.”
Xu Xiaoyin: "How could it be? She is overthinking it. Now "Jump Up" is the most important book list of our Jiangyin Publishing House. Of course we are also very happy that she can come here and connect with us as the representative of "Jump Up" .”
Lu Yanhe heard what Xu Xiaoyin said and breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you so much, Sister Xiaoyin."
-
After having lunch with Xu Xiaoyin, Chen Siqi went to pay for the order and followed She said goodbye at the door of the hotel.
Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe and asked, "Where are you going?"
Lu Yanhe said: "I want to go to the crew."
Zou Dong has already followed. He was eating nearby just now, waiting for Lu Yanhe.
Chen Siqi asked: "Is it convenient for me to go to the place where you are shooting?"
"Yes, it's okay."
"Then let me go with you. The flight is back to Jiangguang in the evening. "Chen Siqi said, "I'll go see the place where you filmed."
"Okay."
Lu Yanhe brought Chen Siqi to the set. The staff were stunned when they saw the girl appearing next to Lu Yanhe, curious about her identity.
It is inevitable for people to see a girl next to a boy and wonder if she is his girlfriend.
Especially for popular stars like Lu Yanhe.
There are some filming agents squatting outside the crew - since they filmed here, more and more people know that Lu Yanhe is filming here, so that more and more people will gather here, including the agents. Shoot, I want to shoot Lu Yanhe.
Chen Siqi followed Lu Yanhe with a calm expression.
Someone asked excitedly if that was Lu Yanhe’s girlfriend?
Someone replied calmly, "Don't get excited, that's just Chen Siqi, a high school classmate who started a magazine with Lu Yanhe."
Chen Siqi couldn't help but smile when he heard their discussion.
She walked into the campus with Lu Yanhe.
Chen Siqi asked: "Do you shoot most of your scenes here?"
Lu Yanhe said: "This is the main scene, and there are other shooting scenes."
Chen Siqi nodded, Said: "This place... looks very old. I didn't expect that there is such an old school in Yuming." "
"It's not a school anymore, it's a cram school, just like in the play." Lu Yanhe said, "Liu Bige was attracted by its oldness."
Lu Yanhe belt. Kong Fan and others heard about the news that a girl had come to the set before Lu Yanhe found the main team.
One by one stood in the corridor and looked around.
Chen Siqi looked up and saw a few heads poking out from the corridor above. He smiled and asked, "Are they the actors who acted in this play with you?"
< br>"Yeah."
"It seems like they all like you."
"Routine operation." Lu Yanhe said to Chen Siqi with a slight curl of the corner of his mouth.
-
"Pretending, if there is no adultery between the two of them, I will be blind." Chen Ziliang exited the search interface with disdain - five minutes ago, he searched for Lu Yanhe and saw someone photographing him Video of Lu Yanhe taking Chen Siqi into the set.
Many people in the comment area said that she was not Lu Yanhe’s girlfriend, but just Chen Siqi, another editor-in-chief of "Jump Up".
It's true.
Chen Ziliang sneered.
His agent Yan Wei asked him what he was talking about.
Chen Ziliang was too lazy to say anything more, and just said it was nothing, and then asked: "Has the contract for "Nineteen Years" been completed?"
"The legal affairs department has completed the contract and is ready to sign it." Yan Wei turned back and glanced at Chen Ziliang who was sitting behind him, and said, "This time you signed a film and television contract with Ruyi. Mr. Mo is not very happy. Make an appointment for you and Mr. Mo to have a meal and talk softly."
“What’s good What are you talking about? I have been singing songs for so many years, but he still earns less?" Chen Ziliang looked disgusted, "You are greedy and asked me to leave the film and television contract in Xinghe. What film and television resources can Xinghe give me?" >
Yan Wei: "That's the truth, but not many people are willing to give up their interests just because it's true. You still need Mr. Mo to support you in Galaxy, don't make the relationship with him so tense."
Chen Ziliang was silent for a while before responding.
During this period, Chen Ziliang was in very bad condition.
Feedback on new songs is very average. Except for Yizong, there are almost no good collaborations with him. This is especially reflected in business invitations, and the quality of the brand has plummeted.
Chen Ziliang’s music style is not suitable for film and television OSTs.
If it weren't for his precarious position, he wouldn't want to transform into an actor at this time.
"Actually, Ruyi really values you. I heard that both Li Zhibai and Yan Liang had people help them win this role, but in the end Ruyi gave it to you." Yan Wei said.
"The producer of "Nineteen Years" had always wanted Lu Yanhe to play this role. It was because Lu Yanhe refused to play the role that he gave it to me." There was a layer of disgust in Chen Ziliang's eyes. He didn't know. To whom, "I never thought that one day I would have to eat the leftovers that Lu Yanhe didn't want."
Yan Weiwei was speechless and didn't know what to say.
Chen Ziliang said: "Yan Wei, do you think I am going to lose my temper?"
Yan Wei: "Of course not!"
Chen Ziliang looked at the street scene passing outside the car window, fell silent, and stopped talking.
When he asked this question, he actually already knew the answer.
He himself knew what the answer was.
Yan Wei said: "Momentary gains and losses are nothing. Didn't Lu Yanhe also experience the bottom for several years before? You are capable, and you don't need to belittle yourself because of temporary gains and losses."
Chen Ziliang said nothing.

As soon as I woke up today, I saw a lot of encouragement from people. I immediately sharpened my knife and wrote this chapter during my lunch break.
Thank you. (End of this chapter)
