Chapter 122: Dig Me? (44)

"From the perspective of the script, 'Strange Hero Yizhimei' is really good!"

“I wouldn’t have written three songs if I didn’t enjoy it!”

"I play the villain, my name is Ying Wuqiu!"

"I got the role during an audition last year. I originally auditioned for another role, a major supporting role... Maybe the director saw my performance and thought I could give it to him, so he gave me the villain role!"

Shen Yan first talked about how he got the role, and then talked about his acting experience: "This villain has a complete character setting and a solid foundation, which is up to you to play.

He originally had a beloved woman named "Jing Ruyi".

But Ruyi doesn't like him, and instead gets together with her good brother Li Gexiao, who is also the male protagonist.

At that time, Ying Wuqiu was still an upright and honest young man. Faced with such a situation, he just gave his blessings with a smile, but secretly he never gave up protecting Ruyi.

At this time, everything and everyone was still beautiful, until Li Gexiao offended the powerful and Ruyi was implicated and executed, and the beautiful appearance was broken.

In order to avenge Ruyi, Ying Wuqiu and Li Gexiao became enemies. He became a subordinate of the treacherous minister Yan Song and did many evil things for him. Even when facing his former good brother, he could be cruel and kill him.

"But he's standing on the opposite side of the protagonists, so he's destined to have a bad ending!"

"His battle of wits and courage with the protagonists, his display of ambitious brilliance, his early lively naiveté, his occasional bursts of high-spirited energy in a high position, will all end in an undignified death, as if he had never appeared. After you finish your performance, we take the stage. The villain Ying Wuqiu is just a supporting role, highlighting the protagonist's halo."

"I sympathize with him... If Ying Wuqiu had separated from Ruyi and Li Gexiao when they got married and lived on his own, things might have been much better.

His tragedy was caused by the imbalance caused by being with the two of them, and then he turned evil and became obsessed."

……

After the interview, Shen Yan prepared to find a restaurant to eat something.

Then I received a call from Yang Mi...

He was quite surprised because... although he had Yang Mi's contact information, the two had never been in contact!

After all, he is Shi Shi's boyfriend.

Yang Mi is considered Shi Shi’s friend…

It’s best to keep your distance from your girlfriend’s female friends!
This is social etiquette.

"Eat? Now?"

“…Oh, your agent is here too. Okay, send me the address!”

Shen Yan was shocked at first...

Invite you to dinner alone?
Then I heard Yang Mi say her agent was there too, so I felt relieved...

The restaurant is not far from the hotel, just half an hour's walk away!

When we arrived at the box, Yang Mi and her agent were already there.

He also knows Zeng Jia!

Although we are not very familiar with each other, we have met before.

After a brief greeting, Shen Yan took off his coat and asked, "Sister Mi, Sister Jia, why did you think of treating me to a meal?"

Yang Mi continued: "...Thank you!"

"Thank me?"

Zeng Jia said, "I heard that you are very supportive of Xiao Mi playing the leading role in Lotus Tower..."

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment - did I say that?
Zeng Jia continued, "Mr. Zhao initially considered replacing Xiao Mi. If you hadn't agreed to let her stay, Xiao Mi probably wouldn't have been able to play in 'Lotus Tower'!"

"This..." Shen Yan was a little embarrassed: "Actually, my opinion is not that important..."

"You are the author of the original novel!"

“…Order, order, let’s not talk about this!”

Shen Yan was a little at a loss as to what to do, so he decisively changed the subject: "Let's have some soft-shelled turtle. The chef at this restaurant is from Hubei, and his soft-shelled turtle is really good!"

"it is good…"

After ordering the dishes, Zeng Jia took out a bottle of red wine and asked, "How's Xiao Shen's alcohol tolerance?"

Shen Yan said decisively: "I don't drink when I'm filming..."

"Huh? Why?"

"Drinking too much will affect your condition..." "It's okay," Yang Mi interrupted, "You can drink a little after get off work~"

"...Actors don't have holidays. As long as they are on the set, they have to be well prepared!" Shen Yan smiled and said, "You should drink it yourself..."

Yang Mi asked back: "Then what do you drink?"

"Just boiled water!"

"You're really hard on yourself."

“…It’s my first time playing the leading man, and I don’t want to mess it up!”

The waiter poured Shen Yan a glass of water and left the room.

Zeng Jia glanced at Shen Yan and asked, "Does Xiao Shen know about Meiya Entertainment?"

"I don't know..." Shen Yan shook his head and continued, "But judging from the name, it should be a Hong Kong film company!"

"How did you know?"

"People in Hong Kong all name their products like that, Media Asia, Meiya, and Huanyu... you can tell the difference right away!

Shen Yan took out his phone and checked...

Meiya Entertainment is not well-known in Hong Kong...

It is not as famous as companies like Emperor Entertainment Group and Media Asia, but its strength is not bad.

It started out by distributing videos, with channels spread all over overseas, especially in Asia. It started producing and investing in film and television in the 90s, but it did not have any outstanding representative works, so it was not well-known.

In the 1990s, there was a period of revival, and the production of "The Fortune Teller" and "The Lucky Guy"...

Being called a sucker...

At that time, Stephen Chow's salary was as high as 2000 million Hong Kong dollars, but his ability to sell foreign films was not even as stable as Andy Lau's.

"The Fortune Teller" and "The Lucky Guy" are huge losses!
Meiya Entertainment has never operated a big project again!

Shen Yan swiped his phone and saw the news - Yang Mi signed a contract with Meiya Entertainment!
He was quite surprised: "Sister Mi, have you signed with Meiya?"

"Yes..." Yang Mi was curious: "How did you know?"

Shen Yan unfolded his phone: "This has all been reported!"

"It hasn't been made public yet...how come there's already a report?"

"You're one of the four little beauties, so you're getting a lot of attention!"

“…Meiya said she’d give me five movie contracts!”

Shen Yan couldn't help but retort, "...like the one from 'Beauty Secret'?"

“…It hasn’t been decided yet…”

"Beauty" is Wang Jing's terrible film. It was produced by Meiya Investment and followed the trend of "New Policewoman", playing a bit of the old-fashioned Wang Jing sex comedy...

The box office didn’t reach 3500 million...

"Hong Kong filmmakers don't understand the mainland, and they don't have any ideas..."

Before Shen Yan finished speaking, Zeng Jia asked, "Xiao Shen, are you interested in developing your career in Hong Kong?"

"…What?"

"Hong Kong? Why would I go there?"

Zeng Jia: "Hong Kong has a lot of business experience and knows how to make money at the box office. We are just starting out and many areas are immature. We need to learn a lot from them..."

"Study Hong Kong films?" Shen Yan was speechless. "Hong Kong's local film market has long been conquered by Hollywood. What's there to study?"

“…Have you ever thought about developing your career in Hong Kong?”

"No!" Shen Yan shook his head: "You Dazhi made a new movie called 'Chess Piece'. He invited me, but I didn't go!"

Yang Mi was curious: "Why not go?"

Shen Yan: "I don't have time. I haven't even started filming the play I wrote myself!"

Zeng Jia continued, "...what if you write the script and then give it to Meiya for production?"

Shen Yan looked at Zeng Jia in surprise...

This person wants to dig him out!
