After making up his mind, Lu Yanhe went to see Hu Siwei once.
"Producer Hu, I am willing to film this sitcom." He told Hu Siwei, "I will also tell Sister Ziyan, but I want to know about the other actors in this show. Have you decided?"
Hu Siwei shook his head, "Not yet, do you have any ideas?"
"Because this is a drama about friendship, I want to try my best to find actors who are compatible with me." Lu Yanhe said seriously, "Because, maybe I am wrong, but after reading the entire project introduction, In fact, this play doesn’t have very high requirements for acting skills, right? As long as we can live a little more naturally in front of the camera, the key point is whether we actors can have that kind of feeling between us."
Hu Siwei nodded, "You're right, but Yan He, our show doesn't have a big budget, and the famous actor can only afford you."
"I understand." Lu Yanhe nodded, "I just don't want the actor you find to be too incompatible with me, so I can only force it."
Lu Yanhe's words were not fully explained. In fact, he was trying to prevent Beijing and Taiwan from finding a bunch of people with connections or people whose acting skills were not up to standard, stuffing them into this drama, and leaving him alone to take care of it. The budget is not enough, so we can only hire a first-line actor, Lu Yanhe. It doesn't matter. As long as the actors are well chosen for each role and the actors selected are suitable, even if they are newcomers who have never acted before, I am afraid that they will not be satisfied with anything, but It has to be stuffed in. By the time this drama fails, Lu Yanhe's reputation will also be ruined.
It is obvious that this drama needs Lu Yanhe to handle the ratings.
Hu Siwei has been in the circle for so many years, but he can't understand what Lu Yanhe said.
He said: "Don't worry, since you are willing to act, we will definitely respect your opinion."
"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "When can the script be written?"
Hu Siwei smiled and said, "I'm still writing, don't worry."
Lu Yanhe grinned and said, "I want to learn how to write sitcom scripts."
Hu Siwei was a little surprised and surprised: "Yan He, do you want to learn to be a screenwriter?"
"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded. He did not hide this from Hu Siwei. If his idea can be promoted later, he will need Hu Siwei's help. "I actually have an idea, but I need to learn it first."
After all, before he traveled through time, there was a period sitcom, which was everlasting and became the memory of a generation.
This is also the reason why Lu Yanhe wants to take over Hu Siwei's sitcom.
Learn, and then his golden fingers can continue to move.
-
After playing the role of Lian Cai and finding a way and an entry point, Lu Yanhe basically never encountered any problems again.
When playing the role of Lian Cai, Lu Yanhe hardly had to calm down to get into the mood. He could just start acting directly by imitating some manners and expressions.
Lian Bei is not a director who pays close attention to the acting skills of his actors.
This is different from Luo Yuzhong's step-by-step teaching and Chen Lingling's sharp-eyed and picky style. Lian Bei's requirements for actors' acting skills are basically just qualified.
In fact, a drama with a theme like "Seventeen Floors" does not have high requirements for actors' acting skills.
There’s little complexity, it’s all situational and status acting.
In this drama, the explosion of every emotional scene is actually the explosion of human nature in an extreme environment. Because it is in a high-pressure state, the actors only need to be completely immersed in the situation. No matter how they act, it will be right. There is no need to do anything. More complex and in-depth processing - like the scene in "Golden Age" where Lu Yanhe and Jiang Yuqian confirm their feelings, that road walking under the night, every hair of the two people is soaked in the characters' emotions. The details, the budding eyes and the hesitation to speak, the hesitation and changing rhythm of the steps, the slight ups and downs in the tone of voice. None of this is found in "Seventeen Floors".
But this does not mean that everyone's acting skills are no different in "Seventeen Floors", and good acting skills have no place to be used.
Chen Bige's acting skills amazed Lu Yanhe.
Chen Bige can give every performance more quality.
For example, the tears after a scream, Chen Bige's hysteria when screaming and fragility when crying, possess a soul-stirring performance tension. At that moment, Lu Yanhe himself was attracted by Chen Bige on the court and forgot about it. Although he was performing, the other actors were not much better.
As expected, Teacher Jiang Jun has good acting skills and rich experience. At this time, he gave a proper response. There was a faint compassion and tolerance in his eyes, like an elder's compassion for a junior, and he understood Chen Bige at this moment. Crash.
As soon as the scene was finished, Lian Bei laughed and teased them: "When Chen Bige showed his power, all of you except Teacher Jiang Jun were dumbfounded. Only Chen Bige and Jiang Jun's shots can be used, and the rest of you have to re-take the shots." Reshoots.”
Li Yuefeng's face immediately turned red.
Shen Yue shook her head and sighed: "Director, you really can't blame us. The scene played by Sister Bi Ge just now was so terrible. I was completely attracted to it. At that moment, I was out of the scene, and there was nothing I could do about it again. .”
Chen Bige was wiping his eyes with a tissue.
She took the kettle from her assistant, took a sip of water, and asked, "Do I need to reshoot my scene?"
Lian Bei gave her a thumbs up and said, "You should rest, Niu. This scene is so awesome. When it is broadcast, it will become a god."
"Sister Bi Ge is already a god." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "Yesterday I saw a collection of scenes about Sister Bi Ge's acting skills to become a god. I didn't expect to see it live today."
Chen Bige: "Everyone is just talking about it for fun. How can there be any gods? I was so nervous about today's scene that I couldn't sleep last night."
"Oh my God, no?" Shen Yue's eyes widened in surprise, "Sister Bi Ge, are you still unable to sleep because of acting?"
"Of course." Chen Bige said, "For an actor, no role is repeated, so every time is a challenge without reference. Before you actually stand in front of the camera and perform, you are not sure which one you should play. How to act."
"Is this the difference between me and the actress? I think about how to act in every scene before I dare to stand in front of the camera." Shen Yue said.
Chen Bige looked at her with a smile and said, "Everyone has their own way."
-
For an actor who wants to act seriously, he will be happiest if all he needs to consider is filming.
However, just like those in any industry who want to do their job safely and peacefully, they don’t know what the world is like. There always seem to be some people or things who can’t stand you being yourself honestly. I have to cause you some trouble and add trouble to you.
Lu Yanhe originally thought that the previous matter that asked him to cooperate more with Beijing and Taiwan was over. Unexpectedly, Jiang Lan came to him personally for this matter.
It's just that Jiang Lan is much smarter than Hu Siwei. In other words, Hu Siwei never thought about getting Lu Yanhe to agree from the beginning - he really just acted as a sounding board.
Jiang Lan is different.
"Yan He, isn't Jingtai worth your long-term cooperation?" She immediately threw Wangbang at her as soon as she opened her mouth. "Jingtai is one of the top local TV stations. There are so many movies, TV series and programs every year, and you are in I went to school in Yuming and will work in Yuming in the future. If you are not close to Jingtai, do you still want to be close to Taiwan in other places?"
With this opening, Lu Yanhe was unable to say a lot of things.
"of course not."
"Let me tell you, how could you not want to cooperate with Jingtai for a long time?" Jiang Lan said with a smile.
Terrible.
Lu Yanhe sighed silently in his heart, and then said: "Of course."
Jiang Lan asked: "Then why are you unwilling to sign that long-term cooperation agreement?"
"Director Jiang, because I know that signing that agreement... I will suffer a loss." Lu Yanhe decided to play straight. Since Jiang Lan used this method to convince her, he would also use this method to reject her. alright.
"Suffering?" Jiang Lan raised her eyebrows slightly and her eyes changed. Obviously, this was not the answer she expected.
Before she came to Lu Yanhe, she should have preset many ways for Lu Yanhe to answer, but there should not be this one.
"Why do you think you will suffer a loss?"
"A year ago at this time, I just joined the cast of "The Golden Age". At that time, it was impossible for me to play the leading role in a TV series of the level of "Seventeen Floors", but now, I have already won the Golden Tripod Award. , I have been invited to many starring roles every month." Lu Yanhe adopted a frank approach, and did not shy away from valuing interests - although his rejection of this matter was not because of interests, "My The salary is rising, and my worth is also rising, so I have set a principle for myself: Today I will not sign tomorrow's contract, because tomorrow I can get better contract terms."
Jiang Lan felt inexplicably troubled at this moment.
How could Lu Yanhe, a nineteen-year-old young man, be so practical and motivated by interests?
This was completely beyond Jiang Lan's expectations.
Jiang Lan smiled and said: "I think that a long-term and stable cooperative relationship will be more helpful to your career than the immediate benefits. The resources and stage that Beijing and Taiwan can provide you are far from what is in front of you. A petty profit can't be compared."
Lu Yanhe nodded, "Yes, Director Jiang, you are right."
"With a long-term cooperation agreement, we will be willing to give you more opportunities." Jiang Lan said.
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded. But it was clear from his expression that he wasn't really convinced.
Jiang Lan: "You should know that every year there are works from Beijing and Taiwan that enter the top three awards."
"Of course." Lu Yanhe nodded, "Beijing and Taiwan produce many excellent TV series every year."
Jiang Lan: "Then you don't want to be nominated for Best Actor?"
Lu Yanhe: "Who doesn't want to, but there is nothing in the agreement that can help me nominate the best actor."
He looked at Jiang Lan with a pure and innocent smile, smiled and blinked.
"How can something like this be written into the contract? It's all tacitly understood." Jiang Lan thought to herself, what a child.
Lu Yanhe pondered for a moment and said, "As for long-term cooperation, it can be tacitly understood."
Jiang Lan: "Huh?"
"I have just finished my freshman year, so I may not fully understand many things. However, if an agreement only benefits one party in terms of terms, this should be abnormal, right?" Lu Yanhe said, "I I also took a basic law course in school, which talked about the relationship between law and life, and it gave me a lot of inspiration."
He raised the corner of his mouth and said, "When I study in Zhenhua, there are often many teachers and seniors who have graduated to encourage me and teach me. If I don't understand it well, please forgive me, Director Jiang."
Jiang Lan stared at Lu Yanhe expressionlessly for a few seconds, then smiled brightly.
"As expected, I still need to read more. You see, I learned a lot from what you said."
Lu Yanhe: "I made you laugh. I usually don't dare to do anything in front of adults. However, Sister Ziyan told me that she and you are good friends. I can feel more relaxed in front of you, so I just said what I thought of." "
He sent Jiang Lan away with a smile.
-
As soon as Lu Yanhe sent Jiang Lan away, he immediately called Chen Ziyan and told Chen Ziyan the situation just now.
Chen Ziyan rarely cursed in front of Lu Yanhe.
"There's something wrong with her mind!"
Lu Yanhe didn't answer.
Chen Ziyan said: "You did a good job, Yan He. That's right."
Lu Yanhe asked doubtfully: "Sister Ziyan, why is she so stubborn about this matter? You have rejected her, and she asked Hu Siwei to come to me and tell me that I also rejected Hu Siwei, and she came to see her again. This is Why?"
Chen Ziyan: "Jiang Lan has this style. He has been like this since a long time ago. He must do whatever he wants to do. No matter how many nails he encounters, he will never give up. Therefore, sometimes this is an advantage. It is also a big shortcoming when she treats artists in this way, which can easily annoy people or even offend them."
"Why does she insist on letting us sign these long-term cooperation agreements? Jingtai does not belong to her family."
"In terms of her achievements, "Seventeenth Floor" itself is a project she leads. This drama is aimed at becoming a big hit. Once it becomes a hit, the worth of every main actor in it will rise accordingly. Now I will give you Everyone signs some long-term cooperation content, and when she comes out with it, it will be a glittering achievement."
Lu Yanhe was surprised.
Are you still making this calculation?
He found it incredible.
Chen Ziyan: "Anyway, the whole atmosphere inside Jingtai is not right. They are all relying on the money they saved in the past. Jiang Lan is one of the few hard-working people there, but some places are also affected by that environment. Stained with arrogance.”
-
But this is probably because Lu Yanhe has refused very simply this time. He does not say "I don't accept it, I don't agree", but fundamentally denies that this is a "big pie" type of disagreement. Fair deception, Jiang Lan never came to Lu Yanhe again.
Time has come to August in a blink of an eye, and the filming of "Seventeen Floors" is more than halfway through.
Probably because I spend a lot of energy on shooting every day, the state of the company's equipment has deteriorated visibly.
The two dark circles under my eyes are so big that I don't know what time I go to bed every night.
Of course, he was still very energetic at the scene, and his eyes were always shining.
Shen Yue said to Hu Siwei: "Producer Hu, do we directors need to make up for it? We were already thin, and now we are even thinner. We are even thinner than actors like us. This is outrageous."
Lu Yanhe was overjoyed when he heard Shen Yue's words.
Chen Bige asked her nutritionist to start preparing nutritious meals for Lian Bei, and took over Lian Bei's three meals a day.
Lian Bei refused because he thought it was troublesome.
Chen Bige said: "I don't want the director to go directly to the hospital before the filming is finished, and all our previous efforts will be in vain."
Lian Bei: "..."
Chen Bige couldn't help but start giving supplements to Lian Bei.
Then, at this time, Peng Zhixing came.
After Lu Yanhe won the Golden Tripod Award, he promised to conduct another exclusive interview with Peng Zhixing.
However, because the last one was done last year, Lu Yanhe communicated with Peng Zhixing and felt that there was not much new stuff, so Lu Yanhe communicated with everyone from "Seventeenth Floor" and decided to turn this exclusive interview into an interview with "Seventeenth Floor" Visiting team.
"Brother Zhixing!" Lu Yanhe happily greeted him.
Peng Zhixing also brought a cart full of fruits and drinks to the entire crew.
"Wow, that's too generous of you!" Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "You're doing an exclusive interview at a loss."
Peng Zhixing: "That's the first time I'm here to visit you. I have to keep up your face no matter what."
Lu Yanhe: "It's enough face."
He took Peng Zhixing to greet and get to know everyone.
They all said hello in advance.
Peng Zhixing is a rising star among the new generation of hosts. He has his own interview program at a young age, and frequently appears in various programs and evening parties. In fact, he knows many people, such as Li Yuefeng and Shen Yue. I've seen it many times.
These two people also appeared on Peng Zhixing's "Travel" program.
On the contrary, it was Chen Bige. Peng Zhixing had never had the opportunity to have close contact with her before. Therefore, everyone in Peng Zhixing was excited now that they had the opportunity to meet Chen Bige.
"Are you a fan of Sister Bige?"
"Absolute fan." Peng Zhixing said, "I have watched every one of her movies."
"Wow, so awesome."
Peng Zhixing turned around and looked around and asked, "She won't be here today, right?"
"Here, she... must have gone to the lounge and will be here later." Lu Yanhe explained, "You won't come here so actively, are you chasing stars?"
"It's okay to pursue stars at work." Peng Zhixing raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile.
Peng Zhixing is relatively calm and mature among the young people Lu Yanhe knows.
But the side Peng Zhixing showed today was like a passionate high school student.
Lu Yanhe said: "If you like Sister Bi Ge so much, why not make an appointment with her for an exclusive interview and ask her to appear on your show specifically."
Peng Zhixing said: "I think so too, but she rarely appears on the show except during promotional periods."
Lu Yanhe said: "When "Seventeen Floors" is aired, she will go on the show to promote it."
"Don't you plan to broadcast this drama exclusively in Beijing and Taiwan first? It won't go online." Peng Zhixing sighed, "I guess the producer of our show will not agree to do an exclusive interview with her."
Lu Yanhe reacted, and this was true.
"Journey" is broadcast exclusively on Northern Lights Video, and most of the programs are designed to promote supporting interviews for film, television dramas and variety shows launched on Northern Lights Video.
Although Peng Zhixing is the host of the show, it is obvious that he cannot completely decide who will appear on the show.
If Chen Bige is willing to appear on the show, Northern Lights Video will definitely welcome it. However, if Chen Bige is in the promotion period of his work and appears on "Journey" with a TV series that is not broadcast on Northern Lights Video, it is basically impossible.
Just as he was talking, Chen Bige came over.
Peng Zhixing's eyes lit up instantly. The feeling was really like turning on a light suddenly, no exaggeration.
The picture is really funny.
When Peng Zhixing and Chen Bige introduced themselves, one of the hosts' voice actually trembled. He was really excited and nervous.
Lu Yanhe couldn't laugh or cry.
Chen Bige's character destined that she would not deal with Peng Zhixing and deal with it casually.
"I've seen the show you recorded with Xiao Lu." Chen Bige said immediately, "Fortunately, you were included in that show, otherwise I would have looked at them like a group of flies flying around, unable to find their head."
Peng Zhixing's cheeks were slightly red and he said, "You've thanked me."
Lu Yanhe said to Chen Bige: "Sister Bige, he is your big fan, the kind of die-hard fan who has seen all your works. Seeing you today, I finally got my wish."
Chen Bige looked at Peng Zhixing with some surprise, "Really?"
"Really." Peng Zhixing nodded immediately.
Chen Bige immediately said: "Well, Xiao Lu, please take a group photo for us."
-
After some acquaintance and pleasantries, Peng Zhixing began to lead his own team to prepare for the interview.
This time the interview is an exclusive interview with the "Seventeenth Floor" team.
After entering work mode, Peng Zhixing is still very professional.
He spent almost the whole day chatting with everyone on the set, collecting materials, understanding information, and then interviewed each one individually.
It wasn't until the evening, after everyone had finished work, that everyone sat together in two rows, front and back, to conduct a formal interview.
Including company backup.
"The director must be very tired, right?" This was the first thing Peng Zhixing asked after the camera was turned on and the recording was officially started.
Lian Bei smiled and waved his hands.
Peng Zhixing said: "I walked around the set for a long time today, and I found that although everyone is very busy and has their own things to do, the only one who really doesn't have any time to rest is the director, who seems to have endless worries. The work of every department must be monitored.”
"There's no way, that's what the director does. As long as the camera is turned on, the director has no time to rest." Lian Bei said with a wry smile.
Peng Zhixing asked: "Can you please use one word to describe each of your actors?"
Lian Bei nodded happily. Naturally, everyone gave good words. He described Lu Yanhe as studious.
Peng Zhixing continued: "I was chatting with Yan He before and heard him mention that you have a soft spot for this kind of battle royale style theme. Is there any work that made you fall in love with this kind of theme?"
Lian Bei nodded and told a journey through movies, TV series, comics, and novels when he was a child.
"Has the director already read all the artistic works on this subject?" Peng Zhixing asked in surprise.
Lian Bei said: "Not to mention all of them, I've seen 80% of them."
Peng Zhixing looked surprised.
Chen Bige shook his head with emotion and said: "When this drama is aired, you will find that the director has paid tribute to many classic works in this drama. If you like this type of subject, you must not miss this drama. We are privately aware of this." The definition of the show is that it is a carnival for viewers who like the theme of great escape."
Lian Bei quickly shook his hand and said, "It's not that exaggerated, but I did put all my thoughts on this subject over the years into this play."
Peng Zhixing looked at Chen Bige and asked, "Sister Bige, do you usually like to watch movies and TV series with this theme?"
"Look, I've seen a lot of them. I like thrillers." Chen Bige said.
"Thriller type? Wow, I think many people have not thought of it. Goddess loves to watch scary movies and TV series." Peng Zhixing said with a smile.
Chen Bige: "I'm not a goddess in private."
Her eyes were gleaming, and everything she did was charming.
Peng Zhixing smiled and nodded stupidly.
"Whatever you say is fine."
As a friend of Peng Zhixing, Lu Yanhe couldn't bear to see Peng Zhixing like this.
Of course, he didn't lose his professionalism because of this. He always followed the rhythm of this interview and had first-class field control skills. However, he couldn't hide his love for Chen Bige at all. He was too stupid.
-
After the interview, Chen Bige invited everyone to have dinner together.
"Peng Zhixing is just here. Let's play together. Xiao Lu, you can't leave after dinner tonight. Don't plan to run away halfway. We can't miss anyone tonight!" Chen Bige said.
Lu Yanhe nodded dumbfounded. Peng Zhixing asked excitedly: "Is Sister Bige so enthusiastic? She even arranged for everyone to go to dinner together just for me!"
Lu Yanhe said silently: "You misunderstood."
"Ah? Isn't it?"
"Sister Bi Ge has to do something every once in a while. She is a lively person. You are just here to give her an excuse." Lu Yanhe said.
Not only was Peng Zhixing not disappointed, he was even happier.
"Sister Bi Ge likes to be lively? Great, then I want to get into her circle of friends, and I want to participate in every game she organizes!"
Lu Yanhe: "..."
Real dog.
-
However, Lu Yanhe really liked participating in the game organized by Chen Bige.
Because the game she organized was really just for fun and fun, without any utilitarian aspects.
Moreover, Chen Bige is a person who likes to hang out with friends. Although she is on the crew, because this place is a filming base, there are many crews filming around, so she often invites her friends to come over and play together.
Lu Yanhe met many people in the bureau she organized.
Except for Lu Yanhe, almost everyone will participate without stopping. For them, they can get to know many people through this bureau and be exposed to some opportunities that they would never be able to get in touch with at ordinary times. After all, people who can enter Chen Bige's circle of friends are basically not unknown people. Just like the actors in their drama "Seventeenth Floor", there are no unknown people. Except for Jiang Jun, Yan Zhimeng and Lin Chan, who are less famous, everyone else can play the leading role.
Peng Zhixing was extremely happy that night. He drank one cup after another without even knowing how much he drank.
Lu Yanhe couldn't help but record a paragraph and posted it to the group chat of "Young Days": Today we are going on a trip like crazy, and we are so happy.
After dinner, Chen Bige took everyone to dance and then drink.
Lu Yanhe silently found a corner to stay.
Chen Bige had sharp eyes. As soon as he saw him being lazy, he immediately caught him.
"You want to hide again!"
Lu Yanhe had a headache on his face: "Sister Bi Ge, I can't dance."
Chen Bige said: "Not being able to do it is not a reason. How can you not integrate into this atmosphere? What if you want to play a dancing character in the future? You haven't really experienced a different life!"
What Chen Bige said made Lu Yanhe not know where to start his refutation. He had no choice but to be appointed by Chen Bige and jumped up together with the others.
The atmosphere was great, with a band and professional dancers.
Lu Yanhe was shocked. Chen Bige specially found a hall to hold the party, got a professional team and equipment, and led a group of people to dance. She was also like a host, leading everyone into the rhythm from time to time. Lu Yanhe was pulled by Chen Bige to sing a song.
This kind of noisy, fanatical, and very movie-like scene has almost never appeared in Lu Yanhe's daily life.
Gradually, Lu Yanhe himself was infected by this atmosphere, and his heart seemed to be injected with some excitement factors and began to beat.
At the end, he completely integrated into the atmosphere. Sometimes he sang along with the people who were singing, and sometimes he twisted his body, danced his hands, and chatted with everyone.
-
"In this kind of atmosphere, people's defensiveness and restraint are reduced to the lowest point."
The next morning, Lu Yanhe was on the phone with Chen Siqi. He put his phone on the waterproof platform, picked up his toothbrush and toothpaste, looked at himself in the mirror, sighed, and said, "Let me go crazy like last night again." , I don’t think I can do it.”
Chen Siqi smiled happily and said, "I can't imagine you dancing."
Lu Yanhe said: "Next time I will introduce you to Sister Bi Ge. I think the two of you will get along very well."
"is it?"
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded.
In a sense, Chen Siqi and Chen Bige are both very self-centered and enthusiastic people.
Lu Yanhe was always a little envious of such people.
He kept this kind of envy hidden in his heart and would not tell others.
Because he knows he can't do it.
Chen Siqi said: "By the way, I have good news for you."
"Ok?"
"The summer special issue of "Jump Up", combined with physical books and e-books, has sold more than 200,000 copies within one month of its release!"
"Wow." Lu Yanhe's eyes lit up when he heard this, "So awesome!"
"Yes, because the content has nearly tripled, our pricing has also doubled. I originally thought sales might decline, but I didn't expect it to increase so much."
"Is it because of the all-star author lineup?" Lu Yanhe asked.
"According to our analysis, this is correct." Chen Siqi said, "Many readers think that the authors and content of this issue are very rich, and there are many that they are willing to read. In addition, during our promotion, we announced Several new serials by major writers have also attracted their readers to buy them.”
Lu Yanhe: "Awesome, Editor Chen, "Jump Up" is getting better and better in your hands."
Chen Siqi smiled and said, "Don't forget, you are also the editor-in-chief."
"I am at most a nominal editor-in-chief now."
"Come on, you will have the final review of every issue of the manuscript." Chen Siqi said, "'Jump Up' will be celebrating its first anniversary soon. Do you think we should hold a celebration event?"
"Ok?"
Chen Siqi said: "But I am worried that holding a celebration just for the first anniversary is a bit too high-profile. Now there are many voices saying that we are very high-profile."
Lu Yanhe said: "It should cost a lot of money to hold a celebration, right?"
"It depends on what to do. If you want to make it colorful and colorful, you will definitely need a few hundred thousand."
"Although "Jump Up" has made a lot of money this year, it is not so rich that it doesn't care about the hundreds of thousands. If you have this spare money, you might as well use it to provide benefits to the editorial team and authors." Lu Yanhe said, "I would rather use it to give everyone bonuses, or simply organize a trip and invite editors and long-term collaborators to travel together."
Chen Siqi: "Your idea is not bad, then use travel instead of celebrations."
Lu Yanhe said: "Well, rather than holding a celebration to make money, it's better to let everyone get some benefits."
"Well, where do you think we're going?"
"You should look at the budget first." Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Siqi: "It's my first time traveling, why not find a place in China for everyone to have a vacation."
"Okay."
"Okay, I'll do some homework, will you join?"
"I... I will depend on the time. I may not be able to participate in the whole process."
"Well, if you can't participate in the whole process, you should at least come and show your face. Although our vacation is for everyone to rest, it is actually planned because of the first anniversary. You are our editor-in-chief, so you can't not show your face at all."
"I know." Lu Yanhe said with a smile.
-
Lu Yanhe went downstairs to the restaurant to have breakfast, and unexpectedly bumped into Teacher Feng Qiyue who was eating noodles alone.
"Teacher Qiyue, you are alone." Lu Yanhe walked over with his fried eggs and milk, "Can I sit here?"
Feng Qiyue nodded, "Sit down."
He looked sleepy and depressed, as if his soul had flown out of his body and was wandering in the sky.
"Teacher Qiyue, what are you..." Lu Yanhe looked at him like this, a little surprised, and looked at him hesitantly.
"I didn't sleep all night last night. I went up to catch up on my sleep after eating." Feng Qiyue said.
He was as angry as a gossamer when he spoke.
Lu Yanhe was surprised.
"Are you writing a script?"
"Yeah." Feng Qiyue nodded, "I promised someone a script to give to others in September, and I'm working on it right now, alas."
He sighed heavily as he spoke.
"Is it not going well?" Lu Yanhe asked doubtfully.
Feng Qiyue's heavy sigh didn't sound like it was coming out casually.
Feng Qiyue shook his head and said, "I can't write, I have a headache."
Lu Yanhe looked at him in surprise.
Feng Qiyue is known to be very prolific and good at writing. How could such a screenwriter be "unable to write and have a headache"?
Lu Yanhe didn't know how to react for a moment.
"No way?" Lu Yanhe said, "Teacher Qiyue, are you not getting enough rest and are under great pressure, so that's why you can't write?"
Feng Qiyue: "I'm used to it. As soon as I rush to work, my mind gets confused and I can't write."
Lu Yanhe didn't expect that this was really the case, he just mentioned it casually.
Feng Qiyue waved his hand, "It's okay, it's an old problem and we will get over it."
After he finished eating the noodles, he put down his chopsticks and said, "You eat slowly, I'll go to bed first."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
He looked at Feng Qiyue's back. He was obviously a man in his prime, but he felt a little rickety.
Lu Yanhe fell into deep thought.
When he arrived at the set, he hesitated and went to find Chen Bige.
"Sister Bi Ge."
Chen Bige is doing makeup and hair in her lounge.
Because as their plot progresses, everyone is more or less injured, and they have to do this kind of special effects makeup before every shooting.
"You came to me early in the morning. What's the matter?" she asked.
Lu Yanhe smiled and asked, "Sister Bi Ge, is your nutritionist preparing nutritious meals for the director these days?"
Chen Bige nodded and said, "I think the director will collapse if he doesn't replenish himself. These artistic creators are all the same. Once they get involved, they can forget everything."
Lu Yanhe said: "Can I make an appointment with your nutritionist?"
"Huh? Do you need it yourself?" Chen Bige glanced at him in surprise, "You are young and don't need to gain or lose weight in a short period of time, so you need a nutritionist to help you design meals?"
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "No, it's not because I need it. I just met Teacher Feng Qiyue in the hotel restaurant. He has been under a lot of pressure recently. He didn't sleep all night last night and was working on a script. He seemed to be under a lot of pressure." I just can’t write. I can’t write and I can’t sleep, and I fall into a vicious cycle. I want to ask your nutritionist if there is a menu that can relieve stress.”
Chen Bige: "Then you shouldn't find a nutritionist. You should find a hypnotist to hypnotize him and let him have a good sleep."
Lu Yanhe smiled.
"Feng Qiyue has an old problem. You still care about him." Chen Bige said, "He just likes to push himself. Don't interfere with him. Otherwise, he will still be angry with you. He likes to push himself into desperation." Go write a script.”
"what?"
"Why do you think he is so productive? It's all because of this." Chen Bige said, "Haven't you heard of his story? He had a drama before. Before it started, the male protagonist died and the female protagonist had a car accident and was admitted to the hospital. , the producer was confused, and tried to find actors temporarily, but couldn't find them. In the end, do you know what he did? He directly changed the second male lead and the second female lead in the script within a week. As the protagonist, the entire script was greatly adjusted, but there was not one more character or one more scene." Chen Bige said, "It is said that during that week, except for sleeping, he locked himself in the hotel to revise the script."
Lu Yanhe's eyes widened in surprise.
"So awesome."
Chen Bige: "I'll give you a piece of advice. For the creators you meet in every drama, you should not easily interfere with their creative methods, even if their creative methods appear to you to be unhealthy or even harmful to themselves. Otherwise, your actions that you think are good to them may ruin their creative state, and then you will become a sinner."
Lu Yanhe nodded in disbelief.
What Chen Bige said seemed to open the door to a new world for Lu Yanhe - he couldn't help but start to wonder, is this world like this? -
It took a while for Lu Yanhe to understand what Chen Bige meant when he told him.
Did Feng Qiyue write the script just by enjoying the process of pushing himself into a desperate situation?
Lu Yanhe didn't know if he understood it correctly or not, but he could only think of this if he thought about it.
Then, at the filming site, director Lien Bei was as thin as a skeleton. Instead of falling down, teacher Jiang Jun suddenly fell down.
Everyone in the audience was shocked and confused.
Send to hospital urgently.
Jiang Jun suddenly fainted, surprising everyone.
"What's wrong with Teacher Jiang?" Shen Yue asked worriedly.
No one could give him an answer.
Jiang Jun did not bring an assistant to the set, he was alone.
He was taken to the hospital with Hu Siwei accompanying him.
The company and the others had to stay at the scene to shoot today's scene.
However, Jiang Jun's sudden departure meant that all subsequent shots needed to be adjusted.
"Teacher Jiang's personal shots won't be taken for now." Lian Bei said, "Let Teacher Qiyue come over quickly."
Feng Qiyue rushed to the scene. After understanding what happened, he didn't say a word and just started typing with his notebook.
It only took him less than twenty minutes to adjust the lines of this scene. Teacher Jiang Jun's lines and scenes were all transferred to other actors.
Lu Yanhe saw Feng Qiyue's power for the first time.
Lian Bei hugged Feng Qiyue and said, "Thank you for being here."
Feng Qiyue: "Aren't the team and I just afraid of unexpected situations like this? You guys are filming, and I'll continue to find a place to relax for a while. Call me if you need anything."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, turned around and found someone to take him to a deserted place to sleep.
Fortunately, this is a photo studio and there are plenty of lounges.
Everyone temporarily adjusted the shooting and each of them became familiar with the new script.
After finishing work, Lu Yanhe wondered whether he should go to the hospital to see Jiang Jun.
He didn't have an assistant to accompany him here, so the crew probably arranged for someone to accompany him.
So, he asked Hu Siwei about the hospital where Jiang Jun was located and asked him about Teacher Jiang Jun's condition.
Hu Siwei did not reply to him.
Lu Yanhe had no choice but to go back to the hotel first and sent another message to Jiang Jun: Teacher Jiang, how are you? are you awake?
Jiang Jun did not reply.
This silence with no one replying to him gave Lu Yanhe a bad feeling.
Could something happen?
The next day, Lu Yanhe got the notice and found that Jiang Jun was still not on the notice.
This was noticed by others as well.
"Is Teacher Jiang back yet?" Shen Yue asked as soon as Lu Yanhe and Shen Yue met.
"It seems not yet. I sent a message and no one responded to me." Lu Yanhe said.
Shen Yue clenched one hand into a fist, put it on his chest, and pursed his lips.
"I don't know how he is doing."
After they put on their special effects makeup and headed to the shooting site, they saw Chen Bige standing in front of Lian Bei, both of them looking a little grim.
Lu Yanhe's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He walked over and asked: "Director, Teacher Jiang...has any news?"
Lian Bei looked at them, sighed softly, and said, "It seems that a shadow of a suspected tumor was found in his body, and we are still investigating and confirming it."
Shen Yue couldn't hold it back and screamed, stunned and helpless.
Lu Yanhe's mind went blank for a moment and he didn't know how to react.
Lian Bei said: "We contacted his wife last night. His wife's flight this morning should be on the plane now."
"I hope it will be confirmed in the end to be false news." Chen Bige sighed, putting one hand on his waist and stroking his hair with the other. He was obviously shocked by the news, looking a little unbelievable and uneasy.
Because of such news, at the end of the day, the usual joking was missing on the shooting set.
Everyone is feeling a little down.
After lunch, Lu Yanhe called Chen Ziyan and told her the news.
Chen Ziyan and Jiang Jun have known each other for a long time, and Jiang Jun was originally asked to take care of him on the set. Lu Yanhe felt that Chen Ziyan would want to know the news as soon as possible.
After Chen Ziyan heard about it, she was silent for a long time. It seemed that there was no signal there, and there was no sound at all. After a few seconds, Chen Ziyan said that she would come over as soon as possible.
-
Lu Yanhe didn't know how to describe his mood.
To say how familiar he was with Jiang Jun, in fact, he didn't, but during this time of getting along day and night, Jiang Jun really looked after Lu Yanhe like an elder.
For Lu Yanhe, if it weren't for Jiang Jun, maybe he wouldn't have found a way to play his character so quickly.
Jiang Jun really remembered Chen Ziyan's instructions and was taking care of him seriously.
-
Then, on the third day, when everyone had not yet recovered from the shock of the news, Jiang Jun suddenly appeared on the set.
Everyone was stunned and looked at him in surprise.
Instead, he was the one with the brightest smile and said, "Okay, don't look at me like that. I haven't been diagnosed yet. There's no point in staying in the hospital. Let's film the movie first. The movie hasn't been finished yet." Woolen cloth."
Lu Yanhe looked at the bright smile on Jiang Jun's face, as if there was no haze, and his heart suddenly sank, as if something was pressing on it, so heavy that it made him uncomfortable.
Shen Yue's eyes turned red instantly, and she rushed forward and hugged Jiang Jun.
"Teacher Jiang, you must be fine!"
"Oh, why are you still jealous? It's a trivial matter." Jiang Jun said, "You are really enough. It's not like we are really separated by life and death."
"Bah, bah, bah!" Chen Bige glared at Jiang Jun, "What nonsense are you talking about! You are obviously our elder, but you still speak so carelessly. Didn't the doctor tell you to have a good rest? You came here to film!"
Jiang Jun said: "It's not interesting for me to stay in the hospital alone. I might as well come here to film. It's not like I can't move. Am I just going to be delayed like this?"
He said decisively: "Okay, I said you can shoot if you can. Before the results come out, hurry up and shoot what you can."
There was a firmness in his eyes that fell deep in Lu Yanhe's heart.
At this moment, Lu Yanhe could not describe his mood, the sourness and indescribable complexity that seemed to twist everything together.
He had experienced life, death, and parting scenes when filming in the past. When he was acting, he was heartbroken and thought he was in the drama. Until this moment, he didn't know what it was like to face the real worry and fear of life and death.
If you haven't experienced that feeling, you can't act it out. (End of chapter)
