Li Zhibai sneezed loudly.
He was filming on the set of "Moonlight Symphony" in the bright sun when he suddenly sneezed, startling the actress standing opposite him.
The latter immediately took a step back.
"Sorry, sorry." Li Zhibai said immediately.
Actress Cheng Siran maintained a forced smile on her face and reluctantly said it was okay.
She took a tissue from her assistant and wiped her face silently.
Seeing this, the makeup artist quickly came forward to touch up the makeup.
Director Li Daoxing asked with a smile: "Zhibai, spring has just arrived and it's still cold. Please pay attention to your health. Why do you start sneezing?"
Li Zhibai said: "I don't know, maybe there was an insect in my nose just now and it was a little itchy?"
He was just joking.
However, this scene obviously reminded the heroine Cheng Siran of some scenes, and she showed a disgusted expression.
"Moonlight Symphony" is a fantasy love drama with only sixteen episodes.
Director Li Daoxing is a veteran in filming urban love-themed TV series and has many masterpieces.
However, previous dramas usually started with thirty or forty episodes, and this is the first time for him to shoot such a high-quality sixteen-episode series with the same quality as movies.
Because it stars Li Zhibai, all parties are very optimistic about this drama. Not only that, many actors who want to make themselves famous have taken the initiative to reduce their salary and are willing to play a supporting role in this drama. .
The current market situation is indeed changing a lot.
Li Daoxing has lamented to his friends in private that in the past, there were not many actors who were willing to cut their salary just to join a movie starring a big star. At that time, the gameplay of TV series was different from now. In the past, it was the directors who carried the dramas, but now it is slowly becoming the actors who carry the dramas.
This is a change in market trends. Only Luo Yuzhong and other veteran directors who have already made their names known have the label of "carrying dramas" in this industry, and now there are new directors, such as "Seventeen" The director of "Seventeen Floors", the first drama and the second "Seventeen Floors" were obviously big hits, and logically he should have been among the famous directors, but in everyone's mind, he is still not that one Carrying the core character of a drama.
In short, if he wanted to make a drama with unknown actors, almost no platform would be willing to invest or buy it. Of course, the actors still recognize him, and there will definitely be no shortage of A-list actors to star in his projects.
Just talking about this ecological issue.
But if a drama has a terrible director and a terrible script, but if there is an actor of Lu Yanhe's level starring in it, then unfortunately, the platform will even directly assign the drama an S-level.
This is an unhealthy film and television ecological environment, but it exists objectively.
As a popular idol, Li Zhibai has been popular for so many years. After turning to the actor track, he produced several masterpieces and successfully became an actor who can carry dramas in the eyes of the capital. Then he Appearing in the drama "Moonlight Symphony" and becoming the leading actor means that the drama must revolve around him.
As a senior director like Li Daoxing, he did not find this situation difficult to accept. Mainly because Li Zhibai, apart from paying attention to his own role, does not interfere in anything else and will not make any mess. For a director, it is enough for a big-name star to do this.
In fact, because of Li Zhibai's character, Li Daoxing had a pretty good relationship with him.
In comparison, the heroine Cheng Siran arranged by the investors is a little more troublesome. But it's not a big deal, she's just a little pretentious, the princess is a little sick, but other than that, there's no big problem.
However, when filming this drama, Li Zhibai often couldn't stand the numbness and nausea after saying a line, couldn't control his expression, and collapsed directly.
"Sorry, sorry, give me a moment." Li Zhibai often raised his right hand to apologize to everyone, "This line really killed me."
He would also look at Cheng Siran sincerely and ask: "Do you girls like men talking to you like this?"
Cheng Siran: "...under certain circumstances, if it's usually like this Talking makes me want to punch him.”
Li Zhibai looked at the sentence "If you really want to leave me one day, don't tell me, otherwise, I won't let you go" in the script with a twisted face, and sighed, "I can understand that you girls like This kind of affectionate, domineering and inexplicable toughness, but if it were me, this man "Yes, what do you mean you don't have to tell me? Damn it, otherwise I wouldn't let you go. Do you like it or not? If you like it, you talk so much. You can't let it go no matter what."
Cheng Siran listened to Li Zhi. Bai complained, unable to laugh or cry, and showed an expression that was hard to explain.
"This is a pure love story, please be serious." Cheng Siran complained, "You always make a show, which makes me unable to join the show."
Li Zhi sighed. In a tone of resignation, he continued to force himself into the state.
“Come on, come on.”
Zhou Ping'an must have deliberately made him uncomfortable when he took on this drama!
-
Zhou Pingan handed the script to Ma Zhiyuan.
Ma Zhiyuan refused to answer.
“I won’t play a supporting role.” Ma Zhiyuan said with a straight face, “If you ask me to act, you can also ask me to play a supporting role. When will I need to be reduced to playing a supporting role for Liu Zefan? He The popularity is not as high as mine.”
"His popularity is not as high as yours, that's because you are an idol, and his fans are not as keen on making rankings and statistics for you as your fans." Zhou Ping'an glared at him, "His "Eternity" is the most recent one. The most popular fairy tale drama in the past five years, his base is bigger than yours. This time, he also defeated several other first-line actors and got the role in "Squid Game". You do it for him Supporting roles are the most suitable choice at the moment."
Ma Zhiyuan said: "I don't believe that there are no dramas with male protagonists."
"Yes, but they are all garbage dramas, you think. If you want to act in an S+ level drama, you can only start as a supporting actor." Zhou Pingan said unceremoniously, "Are you willing?"
Ma Zhiyuan pursed his lips.
Zhou Pingan also curled his lips.
"Don't expect to become fat in one go."
Ma Zhiyuan said: "Li Zhibai has now started to play the leading role. His new drama is Ichiban, right?"
Zhou Pingan: "Don't forget, Li Zhibai's first movie was also a supporting actor."
Ma Zhiyuan frowned.
Zhou Ping'an: "You should believe the play I picked for you."
Ma Zhiyuan: "I'm not a newcomer. I've gotten to this point. If you ask me to play a supporting role, I can't convince myself."
He is very stubborn and refuses to play this supporting role no matter what.
Zhou Pingan was very angry.
"I believe you have a good eye for me in choosing roles, but I will only play the leading role." Ma Zhiyuan said firmly.
-
"The second male lead in "The Mountain"?" Yan Liang was a little surprised and asked: "This role is suitable for me?"
"Suitable." Zhou Pingan said on the phone, "After the filming of "Gold Rush" is completed, You just have two months of rest, so you can join the cast directly."
Yan Liang hesitated and said, "Okay, since you think it's suitable for me, brother Ping An, then I'll act."
"Yes." Zhou Ping'an smiled slightly, "Believe me, although this role is the second male lead, it is not inferior to the leading actor in terms of brilliance. Moreover, with you as the leading role, it will definitely be a hit."
“I am just a little surprised that there is an online drama about fraud. I have never seen it before.”
"Now more and more themes are emerging." Zhou Ping'an said, "This is a good phenomenon, and the quality of scripts is getting higher and higher. If you look at the scripts we have found now, many of them are only about ten episodes in length. Compared with the past, it is much easier to film a drama, and the filming efficiency is much higher."
Yan Liang hummed.
"How was the filming of "The Gold Rush"?"
This drama was filmed in Southeast Asia, not in China. Yan Liang was filming in a mountain with the crew, so it was difficult to get in touch with him.
“The conditions are quite difficult. I am always bitten by insects, and rashes appear on my body for no apparent reason.” Yan Liang said.
When Zhou Pingan heard this, he asked: "Have you asked a doctor to prescribe medicine for you? You can't be careless about this. No one knows what kind of poisonous insects they are."
Yan Liang said: "I have seen it. Yes, there is a doctor accompanying the crew, so the question should be Not big.”
“You have always been able to endure hardships.”
“The filming of this treasure hunting scene has the scene of going deep into the mountains and old forests. I have already done it. I came with mental preparation." Yan Liang said.
Zhou Ping'an: "The subject matter of "The Gold Rush" is indeed good. It is very rare in China. It should attract a lot of attention when it is broadcast."
"Yeah." Yan Liang responded.
Zhou Pingan hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
The role of the second male lead in "Top of the Mountain" was really good. Ma Zhiyuan refused to play it no matter what, and Zhou Pingan didn't want to waste it, so he gave it to Yan Liang.
In fact, since Yan Liang became famous with "Six People", there have been many dramas coming to Yan Liang. However, there are rarely protagonists, and in better dramas, they usually have supporting roles. It's not that Zhou Ping'an is unwilling to accept a supporting role for Yan Liang, but Yan Liang's own image is not suitable for starring in a drama with a more mainstream theme.
His acting talent is not that high. He does not have the "star halo" like Li Zhibai and Ma Zhiyuan. He can act well, but not brilliantly. Therefore, when Zhou Pingan takes over roles for Yan Liang, he prefers roles with more complex characters and more intense plot lines, using the colors of the script and characters to give Yan Liang greater appeal.
"The Gold Rush" and "The Top of the Mountain" both fall into this category.
The former has a special theme and the story itself is attractive. Any character who appears in this story will be charmed by this legendary story.
The latter is purely an outstanding character, just like the psychotic rich second generation played by Li Zhibai in "With You to the End of the World".
The advantage of Yan Liang's acting is that he has all the basic skills. No matter what role he plays, it will not make people feel too bad and make him feel that he is acting out. Therefore, Zhou Ping'an dares to accept roles with more extreme personalities for him.
-
Yan Liang and Li Zhibai were not in Yuming, and Lu Yanhe returned to Ziyuanqiao less frequently.
He is not in the group now and has few public schedules, so he does not have to leave early and come back late.
This week, Lu Yanhe has only one public schedule, to attend the Red River Awards.
Being nominated for "Seventeen Floors" was already a surprise, but with no chance of winning the award, Lu Yanhe felt very relaxed.
At this Red River Awards, the winner of the Best Actor was the capable actor Wending, and the winner of the Best Actress was Lu Sui.
Lu Sui was so excited that she burst into tears on the stage.
Lu Yanhe remembered that almost two years ago, it was also the Red River Award. Xu Yiren won the best actress. Lu Sui was also shortlisted that year. She was defeated and her face was so ugly that she didn’t even have time to put it away. She was caught by the camera. The photo was taken and everyone saw it.
Now I have got what I wanted.
Lu Yanhe attended the award ceremony with a relaxed attitude and returned to school.
The classes this semester are not as many as the last semester. He does not have to be so anxious and nervous every day to catch up on classes, homework, and papers.
Writing a thesis is actually a physical job because you need to check a lot of literature and information. Although Zhenhua does not require them to publish papers, the requirements for papers are strictly in accordance with the publication requirements.
Assignments for many college courses are generally written and handed in. The teachers will give a score, file it, and then use it as part of the usual grade when calculating the overall grade of the course. But in Zhenhua, it’s not as simple as handing it in and having the teacher give you a grade.
After reading your homework, many teachers in Zhenhua will most likely send you an email and make an appointment with you to come to their office for communication and discussion. They may even ask you to rewrite and revise it.
Lu Yanhe often receives emails like this.
The teachers did not lower their demands on him just because of his star status.
As soon as he returned to school this time, he found that he had received an email from Professor Zhao Dezhong in his mailbox.
Ever since he was caught by Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi after fainting at home and sent to the hospital, Professor Zhao Dezhong has been recuperating and asked for leave from the college. He has not been assigned any classes this semester.
Lu Yanhe visited Professor Zhao several times later, especially after he agreed to write a column for a separate volume of "Jump Up". Chen Siqi also visited him frequently.
Lu Yanhe is still puzzled as to why Professor Zhao Dezhong suddenly sent him an email. There are no classes for him this semester.
When he opened the email, Lu Yanhe was surprised to find that it was him who had sent him a book list.
Lu Yanhe was stunned when Zhao Dezhong suddenly gave him a book list.
Huh?
Zhao Dezhong said: Last time you told me that you didn’t want to go to graduate school because of practical work considerations, and that you didn’t want to take the academic path, but you just like reading. This is what I want to say. You can read the book list you created when you have free time. They are all introductory books to our ancient literary works. Maybe you will be interested.
Lu Yanhe was flattered and replied "Thank you".
Lu Yanhe didn’t understand why Zhao Dezhong did this.
However, since the book list was carefully written for him, Lu Yanhe thought about it and immediately ordered all the books on the list online.
He thought for a while, opened the "Xueyou" APP again, logged in to his account, and posted a new update:
The school teacher gave me a reading list, including eight books. , not coursework, just out of interest, I thought After thinking about it, I often see people say that they can’t read books and often finish reading on their mobile phones. They feel that their time is wasted. Although I don’t agree with this statement, after all, I always feel that people should live in a way that makes them happy, even if they are In the eyes of others, it is a way of wasting time. But if you are interested, you can participate in my sudden reading plan. Let's read these eight books together, share reading progress, share excerpts, and share reading experiences. It’s just reading, you don’t need to finish the book, just find what you like and read it.
At the back, there is a book list given to him by Professor Zhao Dezhong.
-
As the spokesperson of "Xueyou" APP, Lu Yanhe has recommended some books he has read and movies and TV series he has watched on this APP from time to time in the past three years.
This is mainly an APP that focuses on the concept of "learning online community". It is mainly used by students, and younger white-collar workers are also a small number of customers.
But it is still rare to initiate a reading plan on the APP like this, because Lu Yanhe is not the kind of person who likes to pull others to read together -
Not everyone likes reading. For some people, it is delicious, but for others, it is just like chewing rice. Except for must-read books and necessary knowledge, there is no need to force one to love reading.
But now something good happened in Lu Yanhe’s mind. Reading is a good thing after all. If it is a good thing, then no matter what method it is, it is also a good thing to be able to read more books in the end. Anyway, we didn’t lock people in a small dark room to read, and force them to read with their hands and feet tied. I really couldn’t read it, and no one really tried to force it.
-
Lu Yanhe released this reading plan, which made the person in charge of the "Xueyou" APP stunned.
For this event, Lu Yanhe did not greet them in advance, nor was it an event planned by them. Such an event suddenly appeared, and many users only saw it after they signed up to participate.
“The academic tycoon Lu Yanhe is back again.”
“He started this study plan, how many people do you think will join?”
"It would be great if tens of thousands of people signed up to participate. Of course, the number of people who can actually read these eight books with him in the end is probably only one in a hundred, or even one in a thousand."
"Why did Lu Yanhe suddenly Did you think of such a reading plan?”
“It’s probably related to their follow-up to “Jump Up”. I saw “Jump Up” posted a message. News, saying that they will include a special volume in the next six issues, and invite authoritative scholars in various fields in the country to write columns. "
"What special volume is this?"
< br>“I don’t know anything else, but the name of the separate volume is ‘China in Culture’, and one of the people who opened a column in the separate volume is Professor Zhao Dezhong of Zhenhua University.”
-
China in culture?
Lu Yanhe was a little shocked. He didn't expect that Chen Siqi's name in this special volume would achieve such great success.
Chen Siqi said: "To be a clickbait, we need to make this special volume known and heard by everyone, so the name must be louder. The same is true for our special volume, literature, philosophy, History, economics, law...why are they not about China in culture? "
Lu Yanhe clicked his tongue, "Niu"
Chen Siqi: "On the contrary, you suddenly started some reading activities on Xueyou APP, which made others think you were building momentum for our special book."
"It's purely a coincidence." Lu Yanhe laughed.
Chen Siqi: "Coincidence or not, it has been said so anyway. It doesn't matter. It has indeed created momentum for us. You are the editor-in-chief of "Jump Up" anyway, so it is normal to create momentum."
Lu Yanhe raised the corners of his mouth.
"Siqi, I actually have another idea about your special book."
"What do you think?" Chen Siqi asked.
Lu Yanhe said: "For this special volume, we invited six experts and scholars to write six columns on six topics. This is in the form of text. Have you ever considered making it into a video? ?”
“Video? "
"It's actually a program, a cultural program," Lu Yanhe said. "The manuscript for each issue is about three to four thousand words. If they appear on the screen, it will be about twenty minutes. , neither long nor short, like What you said before is also convenient for office workers to read one issue on the subway.”
“The special volume is called "China in Culture". The name is very big, but if it is made into a whole series. , each teacher recorded six issues on a theme, From astronomy and geography to literature, history and economics." Lu Yanhe said, "Producing these contents in various forms such as text, audio, video, etc. can catch all potential people who are interested in these contents as soon as possible."
Chen Siqi took a deep breath.
“It’s really amazing.”
“What’s amazing?” Lu Yanhe was stunned.
Chen Siqi said: "Sister Zi Xing just called me an hour ago. What she said to you is almost exactly the same. She also said that this column can be made into a video program simultaneously." Lu Yanhe exposed A look of surprise.
He didn't expect that Xin Zixing would think of this first.
Lu Yanhe only thought of this after experiencing a series of cultural programs from "Hundred Schools of Forum" to paid knowledge.
Xin Zixing relied on her own acumen to bring it up earlier than Lu Yanhe.
-
“You mean, Lu Yanhe wants to make a cultural program?”
Zheng Huairen looked at Jiang Zixin with some surprise.
Jiang Zixin nodded and said: "To be precise, Chen Siqi and Xin Zixin did it together, but it happened that Lu Yanhe also proposed the same idea."
"Just use They "jump up" and say goodbye "Yes." Jiang Zixin nodded again, "ask us if we are interested."
Zheng Huairen asked: "What do you think of their idea for this program?" ”
Jiang Zixin took a deep breath and said: "To be honest, I can't judge. If we just look at the content and form of this program, I think inviting some experts and scholars to come and talk about things in their professional knowledge fields will not be enough for the audience." There will be a lot. After all, CCTV has produced many programs like this, which talk about popular science and humanities and history, but not many people watch them. However, their format seems to be different this time. From what they mentioned to me. Several of the questions, I think they are actually pretty good. I want to see what they are talking about.”
Zheng Huairen: “What topic?”
“For example, Professor Zhao Dezhong from Zhenhua University, the theme he is going to do is ‘Revealing the Secret of Journey to the West’. Notes: The Past Lives of the Five Masters and Disciples The title "This Life" is especially similar to some deliberately gimmick titles created by marketing accounts. Basically, Chinese people know the story of "Journey to the West", and they will be more or less interested when they see this title." Jiang Zixin said.
“Yes, it’s true.” Zheng Huairen nodded.
Jiang Zixin saw that Zheng Huairen's attitude was relatively positive, so he continued: "Furthermore, this program, like "Confessions from the High Platform", has a relatively low production cost."
Zheng Huairen nodded, "Make an appointment for everyone to sit together and discuss it."
-
"Each expert and scholar chooses a topic and prepares five questions for each issue of twenty minutes. It took one to two days to record the eight episodes.”
Not long ago, Xin Zixing was sitting in the conference room, introducing her thoughts on the program to everyone.
“The filming team can be left to us, or it can be left to your own team of Northern Lights Video, but our team is responsible for the program recording site and the audience.” Xin Zixing said, “ We will work with the Youth Association of Zhenhua University to create a lecture format, inviting students from various universities to create an academic lecture atmosphere, but the atmosphere will definitely be more relaxed than a real academic lecture. "< br>
"The requirements and difficulty of other aspects of our program are not high, and a basic shooting team is enough to shoot it." Xin Zixing said, "At the same time, the separate volume of "Jump Up" will also be synchronized with the program. Propaganda."
Zheng Huairen said: "It is difficult for such a program to attract everyone's attention without the participation of celebrity artists."
< br>Lu Yanhe said: "It's not that this program is difficult to attract everyone's attention, but that our program production industry doesn't know how to promote this type of program."
Chen Siqi smiled at Zheng Huairen: : "Mr. Zheng, for publicity and sales, our team is professional now."
Zheng Huairen really couldn't refute it at once.
After all, the people in front of him are people who have made adults many times what others think is impossible.
“We can have two ways of cooperation. The first one is that we will produce all the programs ourselves, and you will be responsible for buying the copyright and broadcasting them exclusively on your platform. The second one is that we will do it together and jointly "Development." Xin Zixing said, "In fact, if our team is not too small and there are not enough manpower, we can do this kind of program ourselves. It's absolutely possible. Yan He said that he has cooperation with you, so because of the actual shortage of manpower, we came to you first. If you are not optimistic about the prospects of this show, it doesn't matter. We will go again. Let’s talk to other platforms.”
Zheng Huairen immediately made a “stop it” gesture.
Are you kidding? If you want to say that the production cost of this program is very high and the risk is high, he still hesitates. How can he be willing to take risks even if the production cost of such a program is so low now? Let Lu Yanhe chat with other platforms.
“I was just thinking about what kind of effect this program would have.” Zheng Huairen smiled.
Lu Yanhe looked at Zheng Huairen and said, "It may be the effect of a big hit, Mr. Zheng."
Zheng Huairen looked at Lu Yanhe doubtfully and didn't realize for a moment. Is Lu Yanhe joking, or does he really think so? .
Lu Yanhe doesn’t know whether this show can become a hit, but Lu Yanhe knows that there is definitely an audience market for this show.
So, Lu Yanhe thought that he should do it well. Try it first. Whether Xin Zixing or Chen Siqi, they are both very capable people to get things done.
-
"If we want to record the program simultaneously, then the serialization method of our separate volumes will have to be changed."
After chatting with the people from Northern Lights Video, Chen Siqi said: "Before, I was thinking about the six teachers Open six columns at the same time, and publish one in each issue. But now, we have this. The program definitely cannot be updated to the first issue. I will have to wait a month before updating the second issue. I have to discuss with the editorial team how to prepare the content for this special volume."
"In fact, it is as follows. Whatever you originally planned is fine," Xin Zixing said, "This show has been recorded since then. It will definitely take some time to complete the final stage and then go online, including submission for review and advertising and investment, etc. There is no need to rush, the program will be done more leisurely and the quality will be higher. "
“Really?” Chen Siqi heard this, “I I thought you would be able to produce this program next month or the next month.” Even if you want to hurry up, you still have to wait for the manuscript before you can shoot.”
Lu Yanhe said: "Yes."
Xin Zixing said: "In addition, the news that Sister Ziyan's company is planning to customize programs for outdated artists has spread, and many people are inquiring about these things."< br>
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Let's see first what kind of clients come to sign with us, and then we can discuss what kind of programs we will do."
"Yes." Xin Zixing He looked at Lu Yanhe jealously.
"What are you doing? Sister Zi Xing, why are you looking at me like that?"
"I just want to know why you have so many ideas in your head." Xin Zixing said, "And every idea is so interesting."
"Actually, it's not bad." Lu Yanhe said, " Didn’t you also think of the program "China in Culture"?"
"I thought it was OK. Make the best use of it. The experts you have found are all well-known people in the industry, and they write the column in the same way as writing a magazine. This must mean that the content of this column can be understood by most ordinary people. And it’s interesting to watch. With such good content, wouldn’t it be made into a cultural program that more people can watch?” Xin Zixing said.
Her tone was full of matter-of-factness, as if she could think of these things and it was no big deal.
Lu Yanhe smiled.
True geniuses don't seem to realize they are geniuses.
But in the field of program production, nothing is more important than a keen heart.
Creativity is the most valuable. This creativity does not mean that you have to create something that no one has created before. If you have a pair of eyes that can keenly discover that there is a market demand and there is no corresponding product on the market, then you can still create a creative program. .
It is a common lecture on university campuses. When it appeared on the TV screen, it became "Lecture Forum" and became the first cultural program to take advantage of others.
One meaning.
-
"What? "China in Culture"?"
After Xu Bin heard about Lu Yanhe's recent new actions from Hu Siwei, he showed a puzzled expression, "Why did he do it again?" Is he going to start a program?”
Hu Siwei smiled and said, “Actually, he has already produced several programs, like Yemai.com. "City Travel", although he is not a producer in name, but the success of this program is inseparable from him. Last summer, wasn't there another "Confessions on a High Platform" that was very popular? Guang Video has also made a program for it, and it is broadcast all the time.”
Xu Bin said: “These are very ordinary programs, right?”
"It is indeed incomparable with those S+ level popular variety shows, but their profitability is even higher than many popular variety shows." Hu Siwei said, "Moreover, this time's "China in Culture" has this theme. It is very suitable for the positioning of our Beijing TV station. Didn’t you invite us to a meeting some time ago to create a program centered on improving cultural influence?”
Xu Bin said: “I just listened to you. , their program actually just invites a few university teachers to give lectures in the studio, there is nothing new, and how many viewers would like to listen to this kind of content? Lu Yanhe is a college student himself, so he thinks everyone likes this kind of thing. Listen, go take a look on the street. How many people are reading now? "
Hu Siwei didn't know what to say when he heard Xu Bin's words.
He hesitated and said: "Taiwan Xu, I think this program must have an audience and it can complete the station's mission. If we can buy it and broadcast it on the TV station, there may be unexpected things. The effect.”
“And it can also ease our relationship with Lu Yanhe.”
"How can we ease it up? He has already mixed up with Jiang Lan, and he refuses to come back and continue acting in "Six People"."
"But we can cooperate with him on new projects." Hu Thinking said.
Xu Bin frowned, thought for a while, and waved his hand.
"What's the point of cooperation? I've said nice things to him and apologized to him several times before, but he didn't take any notice of me. Do we have to have him? Without him in this entertainment industry, everyone else would be dead." Right?" Xu Bin said, "This man has such a bad temper, who knows if he will cause trouble later."
Hu Siwei's heart felt as cold as if it had been blown by the winter wind. of.
A hot stove was put out.
He didn't expect that Xu Bin didn't want to cooperate with Lu Yanhe anymore.
Xu Bin suddenly remembered something, "He brought that Tom White here before, and asked you to have a meal with Tom White. Did he say something to you again? He wants to return "Six People"? "
"No, he said in front of the media that he would never come back. How could he come back?" Hu Siwei sighed in his heart.
Xu Bin: "He and Northern Lights poached Bai Jingnian away, and I haven't settled the accounts with him yet. Don't have anything to do with him in the future, or let me take the blame again."
Hu Siwei was silent.
He was silent because he felt uncomfortable. When Lu Yanhe and he were working on the project "Seventeen Floors", he was the one who invited Lu Yanhe to come to "Six". This drama could obviously become a good story about their "discerning eyes" in their acting careers. Now, Instead, it has become an existence that cannot be mentioned and needs to be avoided.
Hu Si Si hopes from the bottom of his heart that he and Lu Yanhe can get back on good terms with each other. Even if they can no longer work together on "Six People", they can still work together on other projects.
However, things backfired.
It seems that not everyone has the same idea as him.
-
That night, at 8:30, Hu Siwei drove out from Beijing and Taiwan, avoiding the evening rush hour, and arrived at the "White Sail Bistro" without any traffic.
Bai Jingnian is already waiting for him in the cubicle.
"Oh, you're finally here." Bai Jingnian stood up, hugged each other, and patted his shoulders, "Why did you get off work so late today? The show has already finished."
"I was communicating with the screenwriter about the script, and the meeting didn't end until 8:20." Hu Siwei sighed, "You ran away, so you didn't just leave this mess to me."
Bai Jingnian smiled and waved his hands.
“Looking at it now, I was right to choose to leave.” He shook his head in dismay, “I only have two words to say about the Red River Award: chilling.”
Hu Siwei He responded with silence, because he really didn't know what to say.
As for Bai Jingnian's departure and the Red River Award, as Xu Bin's direct subordinate and Bai Jingnian's long-time friend, he was caught in the middle. It was actually very difficult and uncomfortable.
Of course Hu Siwei also tried to resolve this matter properly, but in the end, there was no solution.
No matter how much he knew that Bai Jingnian's ability and talent as a director were in the first echelon, the leaders inside the station just didn't recognize it, and it was useless no matter what he said.
People often have as deep-rooted stubbornness in their own judgment as stereotypes.
"If he was really capable, why would he finally have a movie with a better reputation after encountering the drama "Party of Six"? Look at what movies he has filmed before."
Hu Siwei felt aggrieved for Bai Jingnian in his heart. What kind of scene was being filmed? Isn't that all a bad show you forced on him? Everyone can point their fingers, but all important roles are arranged by the leader. Advertising slogans can be strongly inserted into the plot and dialogue. How could a play like this not be bad? What can a director without any background or voice do?
However, if Bai Jingnian didn't say these words himself, Hu Siwei would not have the courage to stand up and say them for him. Bai Jingnian left decisively, and Hu Siwei could only bless him in his heart.
"Northern Light Video is willing to sign a contract with me on such favorable terms. In addition to the results of "Six People", it is mainly because of the drama "Wulin Gaiden". They need to find a suitable director to direct it. It was Yan He who told them that he After looking for me, I was rejected by Jingtai, so Northern Lights came up with the idea." Bai Jingnian smiled, "It's a good thing. I have been in Jingtai for more than 20 years, and now I am finally out, and I can see a new world. new scenery ."
Hu Siwei: "I envy you."
Bai Jingnian smiled, "There is nothing to envy. There are also risks."
"With yours. Ability, Lu Yanhe's script, and the investment that Northern Lights places so much emphasis on, "Wulin Gaiden" will not be bad, unlike "Six People", damn -" After Hu Siwei cursed such a curse word, he was stunned , and then laughed angrily.
“I heard that Zhang Lan will be given a leading role in the third season?”
"Yes." Hu Siwei nodded and sighed at the same time, "Zhang Lan replaced Chen Ziliang as the starring role in the third season. I am happy to see it happen. Chen Ziliang's acting skills are really unwatchable. They were all edited out in the later editing. Not good. However, Zhang Lan is too self-centered. , I have already expressed my opinions on the script twice, but I am still not satisfied and refuse to sign the contract."
"Why do we have to ask her to act?" Bai Jingnian asked, "Just Yan Liang and the others. Can’t Ji Zai continue this story?”
“What else is there to ask? Why did they insist on adding a new character like Chen Ziliang in the first place? It’s still the same now.”
“I haven’t thought about getting Chen Ziliang to play in the second season. What’s the lesson?”
"Eat it. They thought they had found the wrong person, so they found Zhang Lan. They felt that Zhang Lan had the best luck among actresses in recent years." Hu Siwei shook his head, "Zhang Lan's luck. May you bless the third season of "Six"
Bai Jingnian fell into a state of speechlessness.
"Luck? Blessing?"
"Well, you heard that right, they are even starting to care about these things now."
Hu Siwei didn't realize that he The seemingly speechless expression also concealed a quiet disappointment that he was not even aware of.
Bai Jingnian smiled sarcastically, "What a fucking nonsense. Fortunately, I left."

"Wulin Gaiden will start filming in May. You two remember to save a time slot for me to make a cameo."
On the video call with Li Zhibai and Yan Liang , Lu Yanhe asked.
"Okay." Both people made an OK gesture.
Li Zhibai: "It's rare that both of us are filming outside, but you didn't join the set. You've been off for two months, I'm jealous."
"What's the point of resting? I've been busy all the time." Lu Yanhe said speechlessly, "Very busy."
"Are you two on the set?" Lu Yanhe asked again.
Yan Liang shook his head: "I'm in the hotel. There must be no signal on the set. It's rare to have a day off today without my filming."
Lu Yanhe asked: "How was your filming of this film? How’s it going? When will it be finished?”
“There’s another one. It will take more than a month, and it is estimated that it will be completed by the end of April. If it is delayed further, it may not even be completed until May," Yan Liang said, "The director must shoot on location. When he is in a foreign country, he will always encounter problems, many problems. It can’t be solved for a while, and it always wastes time.”
"Be careful, I heard it's very chaotic over there, and some people are even bold enough to kidnap people." Li Zhibai said.
"No, no, the crew is reliable." Yan Liang said, "We are followed by bodyguards when we travel."
Lu Yanhe: "You have to be more careful when filming in the mountains. , deep in the mountains and old forests, even if there is an accident, you can’t immediately Go to the hospital."
"Yes." Yan Liang nodded, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
"What about you? Li Zhibai, you film "Moonlight Echo". I never heard you talk about the crew?”
"I don't have anything to say. I just film as usual and call it a day. Occasionally I have dinner and a glass of wine with the other guys on the crew." Li Zhibai said, "However, after I changed my agent, I feel that my ears are still the same. I felt a lot more relaxed, and finally there was no one around every now and then. He was so mad at me. He had a soft spot for that idiot Ma Zhiyuan. I heard that he wanted to act for Ma Zhiyuan in a film before, but Ma Zhiyuan refused to act because he was the second male lead in that film. Zhou Pingan His face turned green with anger."
"Huh?" Yan Liang was stunned, "He recently accepted a play for me, and it was a play with the second male lead. It couldn't be this, right?"
"What the hell?" Li Zhibai's eyes immediately widened. Get up, "He gave you a role that Ma Zhiyuan refused to play? Isn't that stinky?" What a shame!"
Yan Liang: "It's not necessarily the same drama."
"Based on my understanding of Zhou Ping'an, it's most likely the same drama." Li Zhi. Bai said, "How shameless, this man."
Lu Yanhe saw that Yan Liang's face looked a little ugly, and immediately said: "Actually, if the role is good and the script is good, then it will be his loss if Ma Zhiyuan does not act. As long as Yan Liang plays the role well, there will be many opportunities for Ma Zhiyuan to regret it later. Didn't you also say that? ?Zhou Ping'an still has a very vicious eye for choosing roles."
Yan Liang's expression softened slightly, and he nodded and said, "Lao Lu is right, as long as the script is good and the character is good, even if Ma Zhiyuan is not good enough. It's okay, it's him who suffers."
Li Zhibai nodded, "Anyway, Yan Liang, you should be more careful and don't let them trick you, especially Zhou Ping'an, with his partiality. It's down to genes What comes out is what grows in the bones. You must not let him give Ma Zhiyuan the opportunity that originally belonged to you. If this happens, just tell us and we will scold him to death for you. "
Yan Liang smiled.
Lu Yanhe: "The worst case scenario is to just start a fight with him on Weibo. Anyway, Li Zhibai and I don't owe him anything."
"Owe him? I owe him Immortal Banban. I have done my best to him." Li Zhibai snorted.
“Alas, you two have not been in Yuming for the past two months. I have basically been living at the school and have not returned to Ziyuanqiao.”
“You can’t see it. From now on, we will be thinking about the two of us so much that we won’t be able to sleep, right?” Li Zhibai chuckled.
“You are so wretched.” Lu Yanhe immediately said in disgust.
Li Zhibai: "Tsk, tsk, what you say is not true." (End of this chapter)
