The King of Crossover Entertainment.

Chapter 49 0049, Casting Controversy
[“Go ahead, bite tight!”

Under the cliff, dozens of horses were galloping at high speed. The people on the horses were holding crossbows, with ferocious expressions on their faces and cold murderous intent in their eyes.

"All gritted, his horse won't last much longer!"

"is it him?"

"He's dressed in black and has this child with him. He can't be wrong!"

"We have a fifty thousand dollar bounty on you, and we're determined to take your head!"

At this moment, a large group of people appeared on the cliff, all holding weapons and looking ferocious.

The leader below shouted: "All the Hu Yexie above, retreat, this is our prey!"

However, the people on top had already rushed down on horseback: "Hahaha, it's better to strike first. Brothers, go ahead!"

The ones riding horses in the front were Dao Ma and Xiao Qi who was leaning on his arms.

Dao Ma felt his horse's breathing become rapid, and said seriously to Xiao Qi in his arms: "Xiao Qi, listen carefully, Black Star is exhausted, you have to hold on to me."

"Yeah." Xiao Qi responded, holding Dao Ma's clothes tightly with her little hands.

Dao Ma patted his horse's back and said in a deep voice: "Come on, my old friend, let's get rid of them together. I can't leave you here!"

The pursuers were getting closer and closer, only seven or eight steps away.

Suddenly, Xiao Qi's eyes widened and he shouted, "Daoma, look ahead!"

Dao Ma Da Ling gritted his teeth and said, "Ha, this month's popularity is really good!"

Shanghai Conservatory of Music, library.

Not many people returned books today, so Tang Yu took a moment to relax and hid in a corner of a bookshelf to look at his phone.

She was so absorbed in watching that she didn't notice that a pair of eyes had been staring at her for quite a while.

And the owner of these eyes is Yunfeng.

He came to return a few composition books he borrowed last time, and to see if he could run into Tang Yu and ask him which books would be good to read next.

When he passed by the bookshelf, he saw Tang Yu with his back turned and his head down, not knowing what he was reading. When he walked closer to take a look, he realized that Tang Yu was reading "The Dart Man".

Now "The Bodyguard" has published more than 40,000 words, and it is in the top ten of the Weibo hot search list every day. It is extremely popular.

Even at school, he heard many students, and even teachers, discussing the plot of "The Dart Man", and it could be said that this discussion was popular with both men and women, young and old.

"Cough, cough!" Yunfeng put his fist to his lips and coughed twice.

Tang Yu was startled and almost threw the phone in his hand away. He turned around and saw that it was Yun Feng. He said angrily: "You are going to die!"

Yunfeng touched his nose and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you also watched "The Dart Man"."

Tang Yu pursed his lips and said, "Learn a little."

"Learn?" Yunfeng was stunned. What can he learn from watching "The Bodyguard"?
Tang Yu's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible panic, and he continued, "Didn't the teacher say last time that 'the characteristic of Chinese and Japanese music is linear thinking, just like writing a novel, with a beginning, middle, and end.' So, I found a novel to study."

Yunfeng was skeptical. Wu Zhongyu's words were just an analogy, not a suggestion for him to find a novel to study. The two were completely unrelated.

But whatever Tang Yu said was what it was. He was afraid that if he asked too many questions, he would make people angry like last time at the sports field.

Tang Yu put his phone in his trouser pocket and changed the subject: "Have you finished reading those books last time?"

Yunfeng nodded and said, "I've finished reading. I just came to the front desk and came to see if you were there. I wanted to ask you which books I should read next."

"Follow me." Tang Yu walked in front and led the way, saying, "After reading those books last time, you should have understood some basic theoretical knowledge of composition. You have a good sense of music. When a melody appears in your mind, you can try to write it down."

"I have tried to write it." Yunfeng said embarrassedly, "But, the deviation is a bit large."

Tang Yu said: "This is normal. If you can write a good song just by reading a few books, then you are not going to let people live."

Yunfeng said, "Really? I thought it was my problem. I don't have any talent for composing."

"You have no talent?" Tang Yu turned around and rolled his eyes at him, and said unhappily, "Did you come here deliberately to attack me?"

"No." Yunfeng shook his head like a rattle and looked at her and said, "I definitely didn't mean that."

Coming to the last bookshelf in Area B2, Tang Yu picked up two books from it and handed them to him, saying, "At this stage, you should focus on writing more. Don't be afraid of deviations in your writing. Only by writing can you know where the shortcomings are. For books, you can read this "Basic Course of Form Analysis" and "Basic Course of Polyphonic Music."

"Okay." Yunfeng took the book from her and said, "It's only a few minutes until half past six. I'll wait for you."

Tang Yu was about to speak when he heard someone coming over here.

"Xiaoyu, it's time to get off work." The person who came was Xu Mengwei. When she got closer, she saw Yunfeng who was blocked by the bookshelf and was immediately surprised: "Hey, you guys..."

Yunfeng raised the book in his hand and said, "I'm here to borrow a book."

Xu Mengwei glanced at Tang Yu, who was looking down and saying nothing, and smacked her lips and said, "You are good in everything except being too timid." Tang Yu suddenly raised her head and said angrily, "Weiwei, what are you talking about?"

The two of them were talking in charades, and Yunfeng couldn't understand anything.

"And you." Xu Mengwei said to Yunfeng again: "Everything is good, but it's too boring."

She and Xiao Tianpeng racked their brains every time to bring the two together, but...

Just don’t say it.

One is too timid in emotions, and the other is too dull in emotions.

Yunfeng frowned slightly.

How come it's brought to my attention?
Are you bored?

Uh……

Maybe.

Tang Yu hurriedly said, "Don't pay attention to her." Then he glared at Xu Mengwei.

"Yes, yes, yes." Xu Mengwei said with a smile: "Don't bother with me, just pay attention to her."

"Oh, Weiwei, if you say that again I'll get angry." Tang Yu lowered her eyebrows and pouted.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything." Xu Mengwei stuck out her tongue mischievously.

At this moment, Yunfeng was indeed standing there in a daze. Tang Yu's slightly coquettish expression and tone just now made him feel strange and inexplicable. His mind was confused and his heart was pounding.

Panda Building, 35th floor, Panda Film and Television.

The couple Xu Liang and He Jing are having preliminary discussions on casting with the investors of "The Bodyguard" and Panda Films in the conference room.

"Based on Dao Ma's personality, temperament and age, we recommend the 44-year-old talented actor Zhang Yuchen." Xu Liang was the first to express the couple's suggestions.

"Zhang Yuchen has starred in Kung Fu movies like 'The Grandmaster' and 'Flying Fish Suit', and has also studied internal martial arts from a Bajiquan successor, so he has good experience in action scenes." He Jing took over the conversation and added.

However, the investor representative disagreed, "Zhang Yuchen's influence among young people is too small, and our first choice is the new generation top traffic star Ren Fan."

When the name "Ren Fan" came out, Xu Liang and He Jing looked at each other, neither of them had heard of it.

At this time, the representative of Panda Films explained: "Ren Fan, 24 years old this year, was born in a Korean group. After the contract expired, he returned to China to develop. He has a large number of young fans."

Although Xu Liang and He Jing didn't know Ren Fan, they knew what it meant to be from a Korean group.

It would be fine if he wasn't a professional, but now he doesn't even have any acting experience at all.

If you have traffic but no acting skills, the final product will never become a classic.

Xu Liang said solemnly, "For a novel as good as "The Dart", you want a newcomer to play the leading role. Are you sure you are not kidding?"

The representative of the investor said, "Director Xu, whether it is a web series or a movie, the ultimate goal is to make money. If some actors don't have traffic, even if they have acting skills, they may not be able to arouse people's attention. Therefore, we have to find a top-tier young actor to play the leading role. As for acting skills, we can invite a few veteran actors to play supporting roles. By combining these two, wouldn't it be possible to complete an excellent web series or movie that is both beautiful and can attract audiences?"

He Jing is now a loyal fan of "The Dart", and said angrily: "Traffic does not mean box office success. I am disappointed with your choice."

The representative of the investment company shrugged, seemingly not intending to compromise on the choice of the leading actor.

The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.

At this time, the representative of Panda Films quickly came out to smooth things over, saying, "The Dart Man is still being serialized, and the cast selection is only tentative. We can discuss it further."

The two silent parties began to express their views again.

but……

The situation gradually got out of control.

"The lead actor must be a talented actor, or else we need to hire someone else..."

"The protagonist must have traffic, otherwise we will consider withdrawing our investment..."

……

Seeing that something was not right, the representative of Panda Films hurriedly said, "Everyone, let's talk it over. Please don't get angry. Also, have you forgotten that there is an additional condition in the contract?"

like……

Yes, they remembered, there was an additional condition.

After all the main actors are confirmed, the author's consent to the crossover king is required.
