Chapter 274 The storm is beginning ( words updated!)
"Yan He really doesn't have time to participate in the show "Idol Era", Brother Qin." Chen Ziyan smiled and sighed, "If he had time to participate in this show, how could I refuse you? What is our relationship? He’s going to start school soon, it’s not like you don’t know.”
The producer, whom Chen Ziyan calls Brother Qin, said on the other end of the phone: "Ziyan, we are not asking him to be a resident on our show. No matter what kind of performance he comes to perform, we can do it, one episode, or two episodes." ? It’s all fine, you know, I’m very clear that I want to create an idol competition show with weekly competition rankings. As long as you have a show, you can come and participate.”
Chen Ziyan said: "I know, Brother Qin, but the problem is that Yan He has no performance to put on your show. Your show is "Idol Era", why not do this, you know, I also brought an artist, Tu Song, he is a singer, and like Yan He, he debuted as an idol artist, can I send him to your show?"
"Tu Song? I don't even know who he is."
"You're exaggerating. He has already sung four OSTs in half a year." Chen Ziyan snorted, obviously not really dissatisfied, "He is very capable."
Brother Qin said: "Zi Yan, you clearly know that our new show needs the top stars to kick off the show, but I am working hard to invite all the most popular idol artists to our show. Here, I have created this as the top stage for idol artists. Ma Zhiyuan, Li Zhibai, Ryu Jiyin... I have already finalized these artists. Think about it, is there any other program that can bring together so many idols in one go? Are all the artists knocked down at the same time?"
"Others can't do it, but you can definitely do it. I know it." Chen Ziyan sighed, "It's not that I don't give you this face. It's that Yan He really doesn't follow the route of an idol artist anymore. You also know that he Now that he is an actor, to be honest, is he suitable for being an idol?"
Brother Qin said: "It's enough for him to be famous. You don't care what route he takes."
"It's because he became famous after he stopped following the idol route." Chen Ziyan said with a smile.
Chen Ziyan argued with him for a long time, and even told him that Lu Yanhe would not go to any idol artist-type show in the future, before he gave up.
She must be thinking about something when she is quiet and meditative, like right now.
Lu Yanhe and the others arrived at around 10:30 in the morning and went directly to Liu Qin's house.
"Oh, I thought you were going to say that it doesn't matter whether you are popular or not. The important thing is to be happy and healthy." Li Pengfei said hehely.
Li Pengfei looked shocked.
"I won't be able to control you after graduation?" Liu Qin flicked his eyes.
Liu Qin knew they were coming and had made an appointment with them early to have lunch together. She went to the vegetable market early in the morning to buy vegetables and then came back to make the preparations.
Teacher Liu's smile made it seem as if the past half year had disappeared, as if they were still in that school. Lu Yanhe actually missed his senior year in No. 13 Middle School. He didn't tell anyone about it. He just missed it occasionally.
When she is meditating alone, she is like a stagnant and still painting. Even the light in her eyes is quiet, as quiet as water. However, when no one who knew her saw this scene, they would mistakenly think that they saw a woman with an elegant posture like in an oil painting. It is not that Chen Ziyan's posture is not elegant, but - what should I say? Those elegant women in oil paintings often give people a sense of demureness. To use a well-known saying, they are called "the years are quiet and good". These four words will never appear on Chen Ziyan. Everyone who knows her knows that.
Liu Qin glared at Li Pengfei and said, "Isn't this a good thing? If I don't see news about Lu Yanhe for a while, I will worry about whether he will lose his popularity."
Everyone talked and laughed.
Lu Yanhe has always been very grateful to this teacher and feels grateful in his heart.
Li Pengfei grinned directly and said: "Teacher Liu, are you paying special attention to a certain person's news? He is the one who is on the trending search every day when you open your phone. If he hadn't been my brother, I would have complained. His news is pushed to me every day. What to do."
"Happiness and health are important, but at your age, isn't it the time to fight hard?" Liu Qin immediately glared at Li Pengfei again, "You have always been blind and smart, but you have been doing nothing and not taking the right path. I will give you more in the future. I’ll just make a few phone calls and urge you to order.”
In front of students, Liu Qin certainly has natural authority. But her authority was never established on something external and restrictive, although she was equally strict, even harsh. Students are not stupid, and they do not resent a strict teacher for the rest of their lives. Even when they are punished, they still feel whether the punishment is good or malicious.
"It's a coincidence that you are here today, otherwise I would have to greet you outside." Liu Qin said, "I read every copy of the magazine "Jump Up" that you guys created together. You are really amazing. It’s not because you are my students that I praise you so much. Really, just do whatever you think of and work hard to make it happen. This is a very good quality.”
Li Pengfei was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Liu Qin to say that.
It is also his ability that Qin Zhikun can produce such a program at this time. He was keenly aware of an impending storm. Chen Ziyan has never underestimated idol artists, because there have been precedents. Such artists can also reach the top position in the entertainment industry and get the top income.
She wants to send Tu Song to this show - Qin Zhikun has not let go of this matter from beginning to end.
-
Before school started, Lu Yanhe bought some things and made an appointment with Linyu and the others to visit Teacher Liu Qin.
Even Liu Qin was surprised. She didn't expect that most of these children could help - and they didn't help blindly.
"The negative teaching material is good, it just lets them know what they shouldn't do." Liu Qin said immediately.
Lu Yanhe followed everyone to help Liu Qin make lunch. Except for that loser Li Pengfei, everyone could help a little.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ziyan rolled her eyes and fell into deep thought.
Chen Ziyan fell in love with the fat piece of "Idol Era".
"Idol Era", this name is so courageous and domineering.
Chen Ziyan was famous as an actress in the past. The artists she led were all actors. It was not until Tu Song and Lu Yanhe that there were singers and idol artists. But this is not because she has discrimination and prejudice against idol artists, but because she comes from a relatively conservative era, and it must be said that the development of idol artists in China has only been in just twenty years, and even strictly For example, not even twenty years.
"After taking you, I am now taking care of a class in the second grade of high school." Liu Qin talked about her own affairs and immediately smiled, "After they knew that I took you in the last class, they all shouted that I should take you. Please go over and share your experience with them. Later, Linyu came and they were so excited. When you have time, come and communicate with them."
Linyu immediately said: "We are actually just doing some very ordinary things. It is he and Chen Siqi who really made the book from scratch. Do you know Chen Siqi? She is also from our school."
And without Liu Qin, he would have missed his senior year of high school much less.
"There are really not many young people who can really work now. How did you do this?" Liu Qin asked curiously.
"Of course I know each other. I am very concerned about everyone's news." When Liu Qin said this, she also glanced at Lu Yanhe emphatically. In her eyes, she seemed to be nodding at Lu Yanhe.
Because her husband goes to work and the children go to school, Liu Qin is the only one at home.
Because Chen Siqi was not in their class, Chen Siqi was not there.
Linyu and the others knew what Liu Qin meant, and they all covered their mouths and smiled.
Since the college entrance examination ended last year, I haven't seen her for more than half a year.
"Oh, all of them are handsome guys and beauties, it's a big change." Liu Qin saw them and immediately smiled softly, "It's great."
The talent show back then was not selecting idols in the true sense, but singers.
Today’s guests are Lu Yanhe, Lin Yu, Chen Qin, Bai Yu, Li Pengfei, and Xu Zijun.
This is the first time for them to come to Teacher Liu Qin’s house.
"Teacher Liu, are you sure you want me to communicate with them?" Li Pengfei pointed at himself and said, "I am an ignorant type, shouldn't I be a negative example?"
"No, Teacher Liu, you are too dedicated. I have already graduated."
Liu Qin asked each of them about their current situation.
Lu Yanhe said: "I have always cooked by myself, and I still know some basics."
Linyu said: "Me too, I like to stay in the kitchen, especially making something I want to eat. This is my hobby."
Xu Zijun and Bai Yu have been helping the family since they were young.
Chen Qin was trying his best to hide his inability to do it, but luckily he was not discovered.
Liu Qin listened and glanced at Li Pengfei with disgust: "Negative teaching material."
Li Pengfei: "...Treat them differently."
Liu Qin didn't know what she was thinking of. She looked at Li Pengfei, then at Xu Zijun, and smiled.
"Teacher Liu, did you know that the two of them were secretly in love?" Lu Yanhe suddenly remembered something and asked.
Liu Qin: "I don't know."
"No wonder."
"If Teacher Liu knew about it, would you let them break up?" Lu Yanhe asked again.
"The grades haven't declined. It's already that time. How could I let them break up? It's the time when stability is most needed." Liu Qin said bluntly, "If it was the second year of high school, I would advise them not to talk about it for the time being and wait until the college entrance examination is over. There is no other way. , I understand that it is normal for you to like someone at your age, but for life, the college entrance examination is too important."
"Yeah." Linyu nodded.
"But Linyu and Chen Qin, why didn't you persuade them?" Li Pengfei said immediately, "They have been together for a long time."
"Since the two of them have been together, their grades have been very good, and they are also very self-disciplined. They can also promote and motivate each other. Why should I beat each other?" Liu Qin said, "This kind of thing should be considered on a case-by-case basis. If we talk about If love affects my studies, then of course I have to take action. If it doesn’t affect my study, why should I be this evil person?”
Linyu and Chen Qin both blushed.
Lu Yanhe: "I am lucky enough to meet you, otherwise a different class teacher would not necessarily be so tolerant."
"Each person teaches one method, but we reach the same goal by different paths. As long as they are not evil-minded, in the final analysis, we hope the students will do well." Liu Qin said, "Our school is not a particularly good school. Last year, I was admitted to Zhenhua and Yuming. There are only five of us, and this is still the best result in the past few years. If we use that kind of elite education method to teach you, many students will fall behind. We can only find ways to give the right medicine. Bai Yu, I really I think it's a pity. I have always been a very good and well-behaved child. I feel quite sad that you didn't do well in the college entrance examination. Compared with you not doing well in the college entrance examination, I am more worried that you will be hit hard because of this result. Fortunately, you It’s great to be able to write, start publishing articles, and become a writer. You have a talent for writing, so don’t give up, you know?”
Bai Yu nodded, "I will definitely stick to it."
"In the future, I will try to publish more books and sign them for me. Every time I teach a class of students, I will give them as prizes to those children who have made great progress." Liu Qin said with a smile.
Li Pengfei immediately said: "It would be more useful to ask Lu Yanhe for a few autographed photos."
Liu Qin: "When I was in high school, I didn't encourage them to chase stars. Even if the star they were chasing was one of my students, they could do it if they liked it, but they were not allowed to engage in those vain star-chasing behaviors."
Lu Yanhe nodded, "I also agree with Teacher Liu."
Everyone made lunch together.
Before eating, Li Pengfei picked up his phone and said, "Teacher Liu, let's take a photo together?"
"Okay." Liu Qin sat among the students, and Li Pengfei raised his phone and took a group photo in selfie mode. "From now on, there will be a new group photo at least every year."
Liu Qin laughed and scolded: "Your house is so big, I will eat at your house next time."
"I'm always welcome!" Li Pengfei said immediately, "I've never been to your home before, so I wanted to come and have a look."
Everyone laughed and ate and chatted with Liu Qin, and then left.
Liu Qin patted Li Pengfei's face seriously and said, "You can still fool around for two more years, but you can't keep fooling around forever, you know? You have to find your own way as soon as possible."
Li Pengfei immediately saluted, "I obey the order!"
Liu Qin saw his dishonest look and glared at him angrily.
She looked at Xu Zijun again and said, "Don't spoil him. His temper will get worse the more you spoil him, you know?"
Xu Zijun nodded grudgingly, the tips of his ears turning red again.
-
Everyone left Teacher Liu Qin's house and dispersed.
Lu Yanhe has to go to the company.
Zou Dong was waiting for him in the parking lot, and Lu Yanhe said goodbye to everyone and got in the car.
I haven’t been to the company for a long time. I used to go four or five times a month, but now I don’t go once for several months.
The main reason is that there are almost no stage performances, and he no longer has to go to the company's rehearsal room to practice dance.
When the car drove into the parking lot downstairs of the company, that familiar feeling spread over me again like sea water.
Lu Yanhe got out of the car and went to the elevator with Zou Dong. He put on sunglasses. If he didn't wear sunglasses in public, his eyes would often be flashed by flashlights. This has become a subconscious habit.
The elevator stops almost every few floors to let people in and out. When they saw Lu Yanhe, some recognized him and some did not.
No matter what the reaction was, Lu Yanhe kept his head lowered and expressionless. Over the past few months, he has become more and more popular. No matter where he goes, the eyes and comments he attracts are like flying bees, surrounding him with a low but continuous rhythm. Over time, he got used to this routine of most artists.
When they arrived at the floor where Chen Ziyan was, Lu Yanhe and Zou Dongcai came out of the elevator as if they had escaped.
"Sister Ziyan." Lu Yanhe took off his sunglasses and showed a bright smile.
Although it is still winter, Chen Ziyan still only wears a black dress with a particularly high-end material and velvet texture. Paired with her long and wavy black hair, she looks elegant and intellectual.
Chen Ziyan nodded happily, "Here you go, sign these two supplementary agreements."
These two supplementary agreements are the contents of the cooperative brand regarding risks and indemnities. Zhen Hongyu's incident has caused many brands to worry. It would be terrible if their spokespersons get involved in this kind of thing. Therefore, when the brand requires them to sign a contract, they must also add another one about the artist's behavior and brand image. Risk Compensation Supplementary Agreement.
Naturally, the artists must cooperate with this.
Lu Yanhe read the agreement, signed it, and sat down on the sofa.
"Sister Ziyan, what are you busy with?"
"I'm working on a variety show, and I want Tu Song to be on this show." Chen Ziyan said, "But the producer of this show wants you to be on it."
"I?"
"I have declined. This program is "Idol Era". In each episode, a group of idol artists will be invited to compete. Artists can play songs on this program and create the stage they want." Chen Ziyan said, " You no longer follow the route of an idol artist, there is no need to appear on this kind of show again."
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded.
Chen Ziyan: "I asked you to come here today, and there is another thing. You sent me the revised version of the script of "The Man on the Road" before, and I have read it."
Lu Yanhe had almost forgotten about it. He immediately looked at Chen Ziyan in surprise and asked, "Sister Ziyan, what do you think?"
At this moment, he was still a little inexplicably nervous.
Chen Ziyan nodded and said: "After this revision, the structure is better. It is almost a mature script that can be directly used for filming. Of course, I have never been a producer or director, so I don't know how mature a script is. And what are the standards that can be used for filming, I just use the scripts that I saw."
Chen Ziyan's affirmation made Lu Yanhe's eyes light up.
"really?"
"Yeah." Chen Ziyan nodded, "But, you said you want to be a director yourself, are you serious?"
Lu Yanhe hesitated instead. Do you really want to be a director? When he sent an email to Chen Ziyan that night, because he had just finished revising the script, he felt a surge of "I own the world" in his heart. But after a while, by now, that passion has completely disappeared.
"I said this because of my passion, but I don't know if I can be a director." Lu Yanhe shook his head, "It's not that simple. After filming "Phoenix Terrace", I felt even deeper."
Chen Ziyan smiled sincerely, spread her hands and said, "I thought I needed to spend a little effort to convince you."
"I'm really not suitable to be a director now, am I?" Lu Yanhe said with a smile.
"You don't know the crew well, and you don't have enough time to do it." Chen Ziyan said, "Being a director is different from being an actor. In terms of time, if an actor only pays three If it is months, the director will have to devote at least three years, from the preparation before the start of the film to the post-production and promotion after the film is shut down. It is not that simple. Do you have three years to devote to it?"
Lu Yanhe smiled and nodded, "I understand, I don't."
Chen Ziyan: "The days are long. If you want to be a director in the future, there will be many opportunities. Now, study hard. However, I am surprised that you can write such a script by yourself. You are really talented and can write "Memory". " and "Childhood", you can also write a movie like "The Journey"."
Lu Yanhe: "Actually, I didn't write it. I had a dream, and in the dream, I dreamed of such a story."
"That's also a talent. I've had so many dreams, why have I never dreamed of something like this?" Chen Ziyan shook her head, "Do you want to act in this script yourself?"
Lu Yanhe said: "Neither of the two protagonists in this script is suitable for me."
"Yeah, I think so too." Chen Ziyan nodded, "I thought you would write it in your own way."
Lu Yanhe thought, mainly because he couldn't write it in his own way.
If it were written according to his age and image, the story itself would be difficult to establish.
"However, you can make a cameo as the boy who arouses the liking of several girls." Chen Ziyan said.
Lu Yanhe laughed. Indeed, this was the only role he could make a cameo in. In the original film, the only handsome guy played by Zhang Chao was in sharp contrast to the treatment of the businessman played by Xu Zheng.
"Do you have any ideas about the actors in this movie?" Chen Ziyan asked.
Lu Yanhe shook his head.
Probably because he had watched the original film, when he wrote this script, he wrote it based on the images of Xu Zheng and Bao Qiang. Even though the lines are definitely different from the original film, the thing is still the same thing, just said in a different way.
But because of this, it was difficult for Lu Yanhe to think of actors who could replace them.
Chen Ziyan said: "Do you think we should sell this script directly and find a reliable company to do it, or should we find a company to cooperate with the team or us? If it is the former, it will be much easier. We can directly collect the money and post-production. Just get a share, but if it’s the latter, you’ll have a lot of trouble and a lot of things to worry about.”
Lu Yanhe thought about it seriously and said, "Sister Ziyan, I hope to participate in the production of this movie in some form."
The main reason is that he knows how the movie was originally shot and how it should be made, so that the effect will be good. If only one script is provided - to be honest, two movies have already been shot, and Lu Yanhe is more or less I understand a truth, even if the script is good, if the crew fails, the good script will be ruined.
Chen Ziyan nodded: "I understand. You are a screenwriter and a popular artist. I will go and help you find a film company that you can cooperate with, and strive to get some rights and interests, so that you can become one of the producers who can control the film production. One, it also involves investment. Generally speaking, producers invest in movies, or they represent investors. Are you prepared to invest?"
Lu Yanhe was stunned when he heard this.
investment?
When Chen Ziyan saw Lu Yanhe like this, she knew that he didn't understand this.
"At a glance, the production cost of this movie should not be very high. It is just a road comedy. The current film market actually favors comedies, but this subject may not necessarily attract investors because it is relatively... rural." Chen Ziyan Said, "The style of this story is a bit more realistic satirical comedy, which means it is not so funny and light-hearted. This is different from the popular comedy movies in recent years. Of course, this does not affect your ability to get investment for this movie." , the cost itself is not high, and judging from the script, it was written by a popular star like you."
Chen Ziyan said briefly, and then added, "If you want to have actual control over the movie, you must either be an investor and bear the production funds of the movie, or be the main creative staff and be specifically responsible for the production of the movie. You are Screenwriter, of course you are qualified to participate in the production of a movie, but there are often many parties involved in a movie, and your opinions may not be accepted by everyone."
Lu Yanhe finally understood what Chen Ziyan meant.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is the word power.
Chen Ziyan was asking Lu Yanhe how much power he wanted.
Lu Yanhe thought to himself, of course the more the better, but if he said it like this, Chen Ziyan would probably think he was too greedy.
"When I was writing the script, I already had a rough idea of what the movie would look like. Regarding some of the rhythm and effects, I was afraid that if they didn't make it, it would be a mess. I was able to make adjustments in time."
Chen Ziyan: "Well, if that's the case, I have an idea."
"Ok?"
"We will first find a director ourselves, find a director or even an actor who has reached a consensus with us, and then we will go together to find a film company that is willing to accept the project." Chen Ziyan said, "Let the investors intervene later."
Lu Yanhe: "Is this okay?"
"Others can't, but you can." Chen Ziyan said, "Don't forget, you are Lu Yanhe, not a pure newcomer."
Lu Yanhe fell into deep thought.
-
Movies have attracted countless people, and the creation of movies has also wasted countless people.
The congratulatory letter glanced at Liu Bige helplessly. Liu Bige immediately understood the meaning of the congratulation letter. He nodded to the woman in front of him who was very confident with her breasts and looked down upon them both, showing a friendly smile, "Okay. , just finish the audition here, and we’ll let you know when there’s news later.”
As soon as they left, He Han sighed: "Who are these people here? They are crazy. Why have I seen so many actors and actresses, but I can't find the one I want?"
Liu Bige rolled his eyes at her and said, "It's not that you are too demanding."
These days, they have been watching movies and choosing actresses.
After choosing for a long time, I still couldn't find one that satisfied the congratulatory letter.
"Let's eat something first, I'm hungry." Liu Bige said.
He Han nodded dejectedly.
The two of them went downstairs and left, planning to find a nearby shop for dinner.
The setting sun has almost completely sunk into the horizon. At this time of year, the sun always sets very early, even before six o'clock. The wind is no longer so biting, but it is still freezing and chilly. When it blows over, it still penetrates into the bones and is very harmful.
The congratulatory letter wrapped the coat tightly around him, thinking about the heroine he had not found for a long time, and felt that the future was dark and no longer bright.
He asked Liu Bige: "How is the "Late Spring" you were interested in before?"
"We are writing a script." Liu Bige said, "Miao Yue and I are writing together."
"You can just write it yourself, why do you have to drag her along to write it?"
"In some places, I didn't write as well as she did." Liu Bige said frankly, "Especially those ambiguous places about secret love."
He Han glanced at him with disgust and said, "Are you trying to catch someone else's little girl working for free?"
Liu Bige said: "How come? I paid the royalties."
"Tsk tsk, it's nice to have a cool shade with your back against the big tree." The congratulatory letter was a bit sour. Although Longyan Pictures participated in the production of his film, the funding mainly came from a foundation in France. In order to get the money, the congratulatory letter went through a lot of trouble. For more than half a year, Liu Bige went directly back to China to sign with Long Yan. He had people paying for everything he did, which was much easier than him.
Liu Bige said: "I have asked you to return to China a long time ago, but you are reluctant to do so."
"Nonsense, after working there for so many years, whoever can say that he is willing to give up will be willing to do so," the congratulatory letter said.
While the two were talking, He Han's eyes suddenly froze.
"That woman-" he muttered subconsciously.
"What's wrong?" Liu Bige asked.
He Han's eyes lit up like a light bulb that suddenly turned on a switch, "That's the person I'm looking for!"
Liu Bige followed the gaze of the congratulatory letter.
I saw a girl wearing a white knitted sweater and a light brown skirt getting out of a car. She was wearing headphones. Her hair was lush and fluffy, but she was very thin and looked slender. Her legs were covered with transparent Wrapped in textured white body stockings, it outlines vague and smooth lines.
She is a very beautiful girl with a very distant temperament, and there is a bit of unruly light in her eyes. It's rare to see something like this in a girl's eyes.
"Are you coming to make a movie?" The congratulatory letter rushed to the other party, his eyes sparkling and he asked passionately.
The girl subconsciously took a step back and looked at him warily.
The next second, two big men in black suddenly rushed out and threw him to the ground.
"Ah——" He Han screamed.
When Liu Bige saw this scene, his head suddenly got big, and he rushed forward, "Sorry, sorry, he is not a gangster, misunderstanding!"
-
"You wrote a script?"
Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise.
Chen Siqi will return to Jiangguang tomorrow, so we will have a meal together tonight.
Lu Yanhe talked about his script.
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe said, "Sister Ziyan said the writing was okay, and we are going to find someone to make it into a movie."
Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe in shock and said, "How many things do you still have that you haven't come up with? Why did you suddenly come up with another script? Aren't you too busy to keep your feet on the ground?"
Lu Yanhe said: "It was a story I had written before, and I had been trying to change it into a script. On the night of New Year's Eve, I suddenly had the feeling and revised a version."
Chen Siqi took a deep breath. At this moment, Lu Yanhe really shocked her.
She suddenly realized that in this world, there really were some geniuses that ordinary people could not understand.
Chen Siqi has never regarded Lu Yanhe as a genius. The main reason is that she never thinks that Lu Yanhe is the kind of person who is particularly talented in a certain aspect. In other words, Lu Yanhe is not quite the same as the genius she understands.
But at this moment, Chen Siqi felt sincerely that maybe Lu Yanhe was a genius.
Therefore, he can do unexpected things in so many aspects.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Chen Siqi shook his head and asked, "Have you ever had your IQ tested?"
"what?"
"I'm seriously considering one thing. Are you wasting your brain by being an artist?" Chen Siqi lamented.
Lu Yanhe couldn't laugh or cry, "How valuable is my brain before it can be called a waste?"
Chen Siqi: "Although I haven't read the script you wrote, I was shocked by your creative ability and speed. You still have time while studying in Zhenhua, filming, and publishing magazines. If you come up with a script, it sounds like fantasy to me."
Lu Yanhe: "It's not that exaggerated, right?"
Chen Siqi's attitude also made Lu Yanhe feel a little worried. Did he write the script too quickly, which did not comply with the creative rules?
Chen Siqi: "It's nothing, forget it, don't worry about what I say, I have accepted it. There are such differences between people. Some people can only do one thing well at one time, but some people, like you, , can do several things well at the same time.”
Lu Yanhe: "This makes me blush."
The two of them were talking and laughing, and then, at this time, Liu Bige, who was in an awkward state, followed Liu Bige, who couldn't hold back his laughter, and opened the door of the restaurant.
When Lu Yanhe saw them, he showed a surprised expression and waved.
"Congratulations and Liu Bige." As soon as Lu Yanhe said their names, Chen Siqi knew who they were.
"What a coincidence." Liu Bige came over with He Han and said hello with a smile.
Lu Yanhe introduced Chen Siqi to them.
"Oh - the other editor-in-chief of "Jump Up", I know." He Han nodded immediately, "I just bought a copy and read it."
Lu Yanhe looked at the congratulatory letter up and down. There were some wet marks on his body that were not very clean, and asked, "Where did you rub it?"
The congratulatory letter immediately turned dark.
Liu Bige said with a smile: "He was crushed by two big men on the road just now."
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi both looked at them in surprise, especially the congratulatory letter.
"what's the situation?"
The congratulatory letter glared at Liu Bige angrily, "Can you speak properly? Don't be so vague?"
Liu Bige then explained in detail what happened.
"It was hard to find a heroine that I thought was very suitable, but it turned out that she was not interested in making a movie at all. At first, she regarded me as a gangster and a liar. I was so angry." The congratulatory letter said.
Lu Yanhe understood, nodded, and said, "That's a pity. It's not easy to find someone who you think is very suitable for the heroine. There's nothing you can do if she doesn't want to play."
"That won't work. I have secretly photographed the license plate number of her car. I must find her again and convince her." The congratulatory letter suddenly said very persistently, "She is my muse!"
Lu Yanhe: "Then what if she is never willing to take pictures?"
The congratulatory letter said: "How could it be? Movies are the most perfect art. There is no beautiful person who doesn't want their beauty to be made eternal by art."
Lu Yanhe's face was full of shock, "?"
What's going on when you suddenly start reciting poetry?
Chen Siqi also looked at the congratulatory letter at a loss. Obviously, she was also shocked by the look of the congratulatory letter.
Liu Bige immediately explained: "That's just how he is. Sometimes he becomes passionate when his emotions rise. Just get used to it."
The contagious passion in the congratulatory letter is indeed rare in Lu Yanhe.
Chen Siqi couldn't help but ask: "Are all directors like this?"
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "No, don't think so. Directors Luo Yuzhong and Chen Lingling that I worked with before were not like this."
The congratulatory letter was still a little confused, "How am I doing?"
Chen Siqi immediately smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just feel a bit of Wei and Jin style from you, that kind of wild and uninhibited celebrity style."
Hearing Chen Siqi's compliment, He Han's eyes suddenly lit up, "Have a good eye for it!"
Chen Siqi smiled.
Lu Yanhe was speechless.
He Han is so thick-skinned.
-
We ran into each other so unexpectedly that we just joined a table together.
He Han chatted with Liu Bigo about their time in the French film industry.
After chatting, I realized that the film industry in France is very different from the domestic market, and it is also different from Hollywood. It is a completely different way of playing.
Liu Bige said: "So after I came back, I was quite uncomfortable at first. Domestic film companies have much more money, but many things are not so systematic. I need to introduce and explain them one by one. I want to make "Late Spring", and I have to make a PPT for them, introducing why I want to make this movie like a project introduction, it feels like giving a report in school."
Chen Siqi laughed and said: "Stop talking, making PPT is a labor pain that every working person must go through. When I made "Jump Up" and discussed cooperation with some e-commerce companies, I had to make PPT to show them our book. sales prospects."
Lu Yanhe was surprised and asked: "Did you also do PPT?"
"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "At that time, it was to get the promotion of carousel pictures from an e-commerce company with a relatively large user traffic, and it took a lot of effort."
The congratulatory letter was full of admiration and said: "You are only nineteen years old, right? You are the editor-in-chief of a magazine at such a young age. It is really amazing. It is impossible in France."
"In China...oh, well, in the past when magazines were popular, there was a precedent for this." Liu Bige said.
Chen Siqi pointed at Lu Yanhe and said, "It is mainly because of his popularity that he started this magazine, otherwise no one would give us this opportunity."
Liu Bige asked: "What are the magazines with the largest circulation in China now?"
"Basically no one reads magazines now." Chen Siqi shook his head and said, "Mobile phones and computers have basically wiped out paper media. Books can still be sold, but magazines, newspapers and periodicals have almost all been converted to online media."
Liu Bige was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Then you are still making "Jump Up" at this time?" Liu Bige didn't know much about the environment of domestic print media. He thought it was just a decline in sales and no longer the same prosperity as before. Only after listening to Chen Siqi today did he know that all print media have basically collapsed. .
"We only made electronic magazines at the beginning. Later, a publishing house contacted us and said that we wanted to publish a book." Chen Siqi said, "It was not a magazine at the beginning, but a themed book. Fortunately, the sales were pretty good, which kept us alive. Come down."
This may sound strange. After all, a nineteen-year-old girl suddenly said "let us survive" in an old-fashioned way. It seemed that something was wrong, but the smile on her face was so honest. ,nature.
Liu Bige saw some shadows in Chen Siqi that were not of her age - she really had a bit of a "workplace" flavor about her.
Unlike Lu Yanhe.
That's right, unlike Lu Yanhe.
Liu Bige came to this conclusion seriously.
-
There are always various differences between people.
Some people are cheerful, some are introverted, some are irritable, some are gentle, some have overcome obstacles in the bloodthirsty forest and become an iron-clad body, and some live in a warm castle and are pampered, with eyes filled with tears. With pure and flawless light.
But no matter what kind of person they are, they stand with two feet in the flow of time. Every time they lift their feet, there seems to be an illusion that it is entirely up to them. In fact, few people can realize that the direction of the water flow brings about Changes that accumulate over time and are subtle.
Just like the principle that a drop of water will penetrate a stone, everyone has learned it when they were young, but no stone thinks that it will be penetrated by a drop of water.
-
When the samples of the sixth and seventh issues of "Jump Up" were delivered to Lu Yanhe, Lu Yanhe also started school.
Lu Yanhe walked into the school gate with two sample magazines. The breath of spring was already permeating the moist and cold air, the spicy smell only found in trees and soil.
In a big city like Yuming, apart from parks, only university campuses can smell such a natural scent.
Most of the trees are still bald and need the rain god to apply some hair growth agent to them.
However, after a harsh winter, weeds that had ended their hibernation began to grow.
In this season of recovery, the preliminary results of Zhen Hongyu’s case finally came out. Li You was sentenced to jail for illegal fund-raising, fraud and other illegal activities. Zhen Hongyu was finally cleared of suspicion, proving that She has nothing to do with Li You.
Zhen Hongyu issued a relevant statement and announced that she would assume corresponding responsibilities. If no money is recovered, she will compensate the victims.
Her fans felt uncomfortable and tried to comfort her, but said, "Sister, you don't need to compensate. This matter has nothing to do with you! You are also a victim!"
Zhen Hongyu replied: "I am a victim, but because I do not know people well, others have used my fame to deceive many people. I am sorry. Since I have the ability to compensate, I choose to not blame myself so much." "
Zhen Hongyu's speech was instantly praised by many media.
Lu Yanhe also saw it and was surprised, mainly because he admired Zhen Hongyu's courage.
This compensation is at least several million. Of course Zhen Hongyu can earn it, but there are many people who can earn this kind of money, but there are only a few people who can do it.
Lu Yanhe sent a message to Zhen Hongyu, saying: If you need my help, please tell me at any time. I will help within my ability.
Zhen Hongyu: I can handle it myself for now, thank you.
Lu Yanhe returned a hug expression.
Zhen Hongyu said: If you have a play in the future, introduce it to me more.
Lu Yanhe: OK.
Lu Yanhe: Try to cooperate next time.
Zhen Hongyu: Well, I haven’t congratulated you yet. I have never been nominated for the Red River Award in all my years of acting.
Lu Yanhe: It’s just good luck.
Zhen Hongyu: If you want to say that, how can we be embarrassed?
Lu Yanhe: You will definitely win awards in the future!
Zhen Hong said: OK, I’ll lend you some good words.
-
Zhen Hongyu's attitude finally changed her reputation and regained everyone's support.
"It can be considered a successful public relations, but the price paid is a bit high." Qin Zhikun said to Chen Ziyan at the dinner table while winking, "If you were her agent, you shouldn't handle it like this... Is it such a big sacrifice?”
"It's hard to say. This is the best way to avoid future troubles." Chen Ziyan said, "Otherwise, it will be relieved for a while, and then there will always be countless people who continue to turn over the old accounts. When the time comes, they want to solve it all at once, and there will be no time and conditions. ”
"Look, it's the ace manager like Zi Yan who sees it most thoroughly." Chen Hongyu, head of Icefield Video's content department, said with a smile.
This time a few of them are sitting here because of the "Idol Era" thing.
Qin Zhikun is the producer of "Idol Era", Icefield Video is the online broadcast platform of "Idol Era", and there is another one, Jiang Lan, the deputy director of Weicheng TV, the TV broadcast platform of "Idol Era".
These people sat together and naturally discussed the "Idol Era".
Among these people, Chen Ziyan's appearance seemed a bit unexpected.
After all, she has nothing to do with "Idol Era".
But judging from other people's attitudes towards her, it didn't seem like it didn't matter.
"If we want to talk about the top agents in China, Zi Yan must be second to none in the industry." Jiang Lan is also a woman. They say that same-sex people are repulsive, but she obviously approves of Chen Ziyan's attitude, "Our program needs A senior agent will give the score from the agent's perspective as one of the reference points for the final competition ranking. If Zi Yan does not come, it will not be convincing to find another agent, especially since Zi Yan has not led Zheng Erba before. I have no interest in being an idol artist."
"I have to explain first that Tu Song, who I am leading, is an idol artist, and I also hope that he can join this show and perform on this show as an idol artist." Chen Ziyan immediately added, "As for me, As a senior agent representative, I certainly have no problem recording this show."
"If this is the case, wouldn't it be unfair?" Chen Hongyu said, "Teacher Qin means that he wants to use the rankings of each issue as a credible result, and finally make a quarterly list and an annual list. Through such a list to stimulate the development of the market for our idol artists."
Chen Ziyan said: "Of course there is no problem. In fact, I am also interested in this competition mechanism and ranking mechanism. Only with ranking can there be competition, and only with competition can fans be motivated. But I feel that we should come up with more Powerful things are used to attract the top idol artists. At present, Li Zhibai, Ma Zhiyuan and Liu Zhiyin have signed contracts with the show, but what about other idol artists? It is impossible to attract everyone, unless this ranking is changed. It becomes something very credible.”
Seeing that the three of them had listened, she smiled slightly and said, "I have an idea about the mechanism of this program, which may further increase its credibility."
"Say." Qin Zhikun said.
"The ranking of a program certainly cannot be a credible thing, but the awards are different." Chen Ziyan said, "We can unite all well-known media to create an award for idol artists, and all media will give scores and The decision is made by voting, and it is open to all idol artists in the country. The criteria for scoring and voting are based on multiple dimensions such as their stage performance, popularity data, commercial endorsements, work sales, and even stage ratings."
"What does this have to do with "Idol Era"?" Qin Zhikun immediately asked with a frown.
Chen Ziyan smiled slightly and said: "Invite the judges for this award to the "Idol Era" show, and serve as judges to rate the artists competing on the show. Put the award ceremony of this award into the "Idol Era" program. Come and do it. These are two things, but they are highly overlapping. Artists can hold their own and not participate in a program, but will they not care about an award jointly selected by authoritative media? Specifically for An authoritative award established by idol artists.”
After a brief period of confusion, Qin Zhikun and Chen Hongyu suddenly realized what Chen Ziyan wanted to do. Both of them had been in this industry for more than ten years or even decades, and they knew the idea proposed by Chen Ziyan. Once implemented, it will cause a big earthquake in the entertainment industry.
Chen Hongyu hesitated for a moment and said, "Zi Yan, what you want to do cannot be accomplished by just a few of us sitting here."
"But we can take the lead in making it happen." Chen Ziyan looked at Qin Zhikun sharply, "You said that you want to be the most authoritative stage for idol artists and the one they most want to be on, a stage where the top idol artists are not on it. , how can it be called the most authoritative? At present, there is no domestic award in this area. Why don’t we be the first one? As long as we do it, all the major idol artist management companies will respond. We all know that now is the time to When the cake is made, no one will say no.”
Qin Zhikun's breathing was a little rapid due to excitement. He imagined that the blueprint created by Chen Ziyan, the authoritative idol artist award bundled with the "Idol Era" program, would combine credibility and influence. By then, it would not be "Idol" "Times" program invites top idol artists to participate, but in order to maintain their status, they must participate regularly and maintain their influence on the judges.
Chen Hongyu said: "If it is a media award, what about other TV stations and video websites?"
Chen Ziyan said: "The Red River Awards holds an award ceremony every year on Aicheng TV. Does it mean that the coverage of the Red River Awards every year is only the dramas broadcast on Aicheng TV?"
Jiang Lan: "I think we can do the idea Zi Yan mentioned. Who can do it?"
"The four of us initiated it and sent out invitations to all entertainment media. Believe me, no media will refuse." Chen Ziyan said, "This is the Media Award. We can study the dimensions and design of production and scoring in detail."
"Let's do it." Qin Zhikun nodded, his eyes shining, and his tone became a little more excited, "If it is done, the era of idol artists has really arrived."
Chen Ziyan smiled slightly, "When the time comes, even if I, as a senior manager, score their performances on the show, it will not affect the award. Those who score them in the awards are authoritative media representatives. In fact, I also don’t want any one of us to influence the awarding of the award. To make an award that can stand for a long time, we must respect the rules.”
-
Lu Yanhe was surprised when he heard what Chen Ziyan was going to do.
The reason why Lu Yanhe heard about it was because Chen Ziyan hoped that "Jump Up" would fully support it.
"'Jump Up' is now the highest-selling business magazine among print media and has great influence among young people." Chen Ziyan said, "If we want to make this award authoritative and credible, we must include all front-line media Incorporated, this media is not just traditional media.”
Lu Yanhe understood what Chen Ziyan meant.
"Sister Ziyan, if you want to do this, of course we support it." Lu Yanhe nodded, "But you also know that Li Zhibai and Yan Liang are both my friends, and they have a close relationship, not to mention Cheng Hai and Tu Song. We It’s a combination, won’t this make everyone question it?”
Chen Ziyan said: "The final lineup of judges will be hundreds or even more. The opinions of one person or even ten people will not have a decisive impact. What we want is the most objective reaction from the media industry. , the more objective and true it is, the greater the meaning and value of this award will be."
Lu Yanhe understood. What Chen Ziyan wanted was not him, Lu Yanhe, but the influence of "Jump Up" as a print media in the magazine circle.
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded.
-
When preparing for an award, no matter how low-key the action is, it is impossible to conceal the traces.
However, not many people know what role Chen Ziyan plays in it.
This also gave Lu Yanhe a new understanding of Chen Ziyan's abilities.
Before, Lu Yanhe only knew that Chen Ziyan's abilities were not limited to being an agent. He knew that Chen Ziyan also did investment in film and television dramas, as well as some jobs that did not have a fixed identity label and were similar to brokers.
This time, it was obvious that he was going to do something big, and Chen Ziyan actually played a very important role in it. This was something Lu Yanhe didn't expect.
It can only be said that Chen Ziyan has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and she is not able to achieve her current reputation by bragging.
There are still many courses this semester. There are two fewer required courses than last semester, but there are three more elective courses than last semester.
It is best to complete the credits as soon as possible.
This is Lu Yanhe's simplest idea.
After you have completed your studies, you will be able to relax a little and have a lot more time during your sophomore and junior years.
Now Lu Yanhe has classes almost every half day, and even three evenings.
Anyway, I won’t be taking any other jobs this semester.
"On weekends, I either go back to reshoot "Phoenix Channel", or shoot commercials, or shoot magazines." Chen Ziyan has said this long ago, "Because "Golden Age" has become popular, top fashion magazines have finally extended an olive branch to you. .”
Not the cover, just the inside pages. But it was also a breakthrough.
These are just jobs. Lu Yanhe didn't take it too seriously, and his focus was still on reading, studying and writing scripts.
That's right, since he finished writing the script for "A Man on the Road", he has gained a little confidence in writing scripts, and started to look through his laptop for the next script he could try to write now.
Lu Yanhe originally took a liking to "Sunny Days", mainly because of the novel "Late Spring", but Lu Yanhe thought about it and put it down first, because in his impression, "Sunny Days" did not have a high box office. It has not caught up with an era of huge box office explosions. Lu Yanhe feels that it is better not to try this kind of movie that may not be commercially successful in the previous films.
He looked around, aiming for a movie story that was low-cost, easy to operate, and easy to shoot.
It also has to be a box office success.
Then he remembered the movie "Charlotte".
This movie almost came out of nowhere, bringing two comedians, Shen Teng and Ma Li, to everyone's attention.
Then I created a new document and found that I couldn't write it at all.
When he dismantled the movie, according to his understanding, he found that the script and story were good or bad. However, in his understanding, the reason why the movie is good-looking is the performance of the actors. It seems that the effect of the comedy movie is more important if the actors are changed. It may not be possible. The irreplaceability of actors is much stronger than in ordinary movies.
He has acted in a play himself and can better understand the key points.
He doesn't have enough writing skills to write a wonderful and effective script on his own.
It's not enough to just remember a few key lines.
Can only give up.
Then, I set my sights on "Cohabitation in Time and Space". This movie also had a high box office in my impression. It is a light comedy with surreal elements and a bit of suspense.
I wrote a dry first draft, but I couldn't use it. After reading it, I felt that it had a good concept and framework, but it didn't have the hilarious effect of watching a movie.
Why is it all comedy?
Lu Yanhe was stunned.
How many comedies has he watched?
-
After tinkering for a long time, nothing new came out.
Lu Yanhe's confidence built up because of "The Lost Road" suffered a severe blow.
He had to let it go temporarily.
Because the Red River Award ceremony is coming.
Attending an awards ceremony is more than just showing up that night.
He has to cooperate with the organizer to record VCR, invite everyone to pay attention to the live broadcast of the awards ceremony, and participate in related interview programs to talk about his feelings as a finalist, etc.
A lot of pre-work.
Fortunately, he is a man and does not spend much time on styling. Chen Ziyan directly lent him a big-name suit and arranged for a makeup artist to style him that day.
Attending award ceremonies and walking on the red carpet are all necessary procedures. There were many spectators on both sides of the red carpet, and Lu Yanhe's appearance attracted a lot of screams and cheers. It's not like Lu Yanhe has never experienced such occasions before, but this is the first time for him to walk on the red carpet and accept everyone's cheers and screams for him. The atmosphere of this scene gave him a strong stimulation, as if his adrenaline had increased.
Regarding winning the award, Lu Yanhe couldn't help but be full of expectations, but he also kept telling himself, don't even think about it, it basically can't be you.
In this year's Best Supporting Actor category, whether it is the media, relevant predictions on the Internet, or Chen Ziyan's information from the industry, it is said that being nominated is already the biggest encouragement to Lu Yanhe , it is almost impossible to win the prize.
This is not a large-scale voting system, but the result of discussions among those on the jury.
Lu Yanhe's performance is a huge surprise for a newcomer, but compared with other shortlisted actors, this year's momentum is not with him.
The most promising actor is Lei Mingjia from "The Long Day".
After entering the venue amidst cheers, Lu Yanhe first went to the backstage rest area for guests to rest. It was a living room about the size of a basketball court, where drinks and snacks were set out.
As soon as Lu Yanhe entered, he went directly to find the people from the "Golden Age" crew.
Director Luo Yuzhong was surrounded by several people, talking about something.
Huang Kairen and Jiang Yuqian were also surrounded by people.
Lu Yanhe couldn't just interrupt them and join in.
Fortunately, at this time, Lu Yanhe saw another relatively familiar person, Teacher Jia Long.
"Teacher Jia!" Lu Yanhe greeted him quickly.
When Jia Long saw Lu Yanhe, he smiled kindly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Lu, I wish you good luck today."
Lu Yanhe hurriedly said: "Thank you, Teacher Jia."
Jia Long held Lu Yanhe's shoulders with both hands and said with a smile: "You are so handsome and your talent is formidable. It is enviable that you can be nominated for the Red River Award for your first acting role. I have never been nominated until now."
Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "That's because you act more in movies and less in TV series."
However, Jia Long has not actually won any high-value awards in film.
He is not an actor who takes the path of winning awards.
He was invited as a presenter today.
Jia Long asked: "I heard that your next movie will be a movie? What kind of movie is it?"
"It's a feature film, made by a new director, called He Han." Lu Yanhe introduced.
Jia Long nodded and said, "I look forward to your movie being released. I will definitely support it."
"Thank you, Teacher Jia!" Lu Yanhe said hurriedly.
After exchanging pleasantries, Jia Long was ready to leave.
Lu Yanhe looked at him, and his mind somehow connected his figure with the image of the shrewd businessman in "People on the Road".
He was stunned.
Jia Long's usual screen image is to play various small figures at the bottom of society.
Although the shrewd businessman in "A Man on the Road" is a successful businessman, on his way home, his true and vulgar side is constantly exposed. The appearance of a shrewd philistine is actually a layer of society. His disguise is still an ordinary person who succeeded through hard work.
Jia Long’s image seems to fit well? -
Lu Yanhe hurriedly took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Chen Ziyan, asking her if Jia Long was a good couple?
As soon as the news was sent out, Jiang Yuqian suddenly came over and patted him and said: "In such a crowded place, if you don't say hello to everyone, why are you looking down at your phone here alone? It's not enough for you to look at normally. Yes?"
There was a slight smile in Jiang Yuqian's tone.
Lu Yanhe turned off his phone and smiled at Jiang Yuqian.
"I'll send a message to Sister Ziyan."
Although Jiang Yuqian did not receive a nomination, she is still in very good condition today. Whether it is energy or other aspects, she does not seem to be disappointed at all.
Everyone knew that Jiang Yuqian must be sad in her heart, but even though everyone knew it, Jiang Yuqian still didn't show it at all.
Lu Yanhe admired her very much.
"It's your first nomination, are you nervous?" Jiang Yuqian asked him.
Lu Yanhe answered honestly: "A little bit."
Jiang Yuqian's eyebrows instantly arched, and she said: "Although I'm telling you to keep a normal mind now, you definitely can't do it, but I still have to tell you, keep looking forward, but face it with a normal heart, especially remember that the one who is awarding the award At that time, every nominee’s expression was captured by a camera, so there must be no moment when the expression is not properly managed, because now everyone will use a magnifying glass to examine you.”
Lu Yanhe was a little nervous after being warned by Jiang Yuqian, but he felt relieved.
"Well, I will."
"What are you talking about?" Huang Kairen also turned around and walked over, looking at them both with a smile, "I haven't seen Xiao Lu for a long time."
Before Lu Yanhe had time to talk to Huang Kairen, a person suddenly came next to him, it was Chen Jiping.
He yelled, and the smile on his face gave people an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling.
He came here for Huang Kairen.
"You're really here. I thought that since so many of your fans were against your coming, you wouldn't come." Chen Jiping put a hand on Huang Kairen's shoulder, and suddenly came closer, using only this A voice heard by several people said jokingly, "As an actor who relies on fans for his livelihood, if you don't listen to fans, aren't you afraid of suddenly becoming famous?"
Lu Yanhe immediately frowned when he heard Chen Jiping say such words to Huang Kairen.
He had a relationship with Chen Jiping. When he was recording the "Technology in the Workplace" program last year, he and Chen Jiping were both recording guests. During that recording, he also quarreled with talk show actor Chen Bing during the recording, and a very unpleasant scene occurred.
At that time, Lu Yanhe only thought that Chen Jiping had a bad temper, but he did not expect that his words would be so unpleasant and mean.
But this time Chen Jiping is the nominee for Best Actor.
