Wei Jun chuckled and did not continue the topic with Meng Ziyi. Instead, he explained the little girl's career path to her.

"Do you want to be an actor or a star in the future?" "I want to be both."

can.

It's very adult.

pity.

"You are not capable enough, so you can only choose one of the two."

Wei Jun said bluntly.

Meng Ziyi: "Then I'll try being an actor first."

After all, she is the real campus beauty of Beijing Film Academy.

Orthodox artists who graduated from professional schools such as Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama, and Shanghai Theatre Academy still have a heart to be an actor.

But later some people were corrupted by money. After all, being a star makes money much faster than being an actor.

Some people also recognize their own abilities. After all, the threshold for being an actor is much higher than that for being a star, and you can't become one just because you want to.

Apart from anything else, Da Mimi really wanted to be a people's artist back then, and she also played the leading role in a CCTV drama.

It’s a pity that it didn’t become popular.

Later, he became famous for starring in a brainless idol drama.

So Da Mimi began to devote herself to becoming a star.

But any serious acting can become popular, and no one likes to be criticized. Director Wei was not surprised by the choice of Meng Ziyi.

He also knew that with Meng Ziyi's qualifications, it would be difficult for her to be an actor, and even as a star she would lack the qualities to be memorable.

But it's not important.

of.

After all, she has eaten everything, so Director Wei is still happy to give some pointers to the young lady. "If you want to be an actor, let's not talk about the acting problem. When choosing a role, you should pay attention to play a role that suits your own image and characteristics.

Don’t choose a drama that’s obviously problematic at first glance.”

Meng Ziyi blinked and said to Wei Jun, "Director Wei, what is this drama that's obviously problematic?"

Wei Jun glanced at Meng Ziyi and complained, "For example, if you go to play the female lead in a BL drama, aren't you waiting to be scolded?" "The Untamed" is the gay drama that made Zhan Zhan and Bobo famous. Regardless of whether the general public likes it or not, it did make Zhan Zhan and Bobo top stars.

It's a draw, but as we all know, Chinese law does not support homosexuality.

Therefore, "The Untamed" is essentially a BL drama, but it does not dare to blatantly sell homosexuality, so it arranges a female protagonist.

Meng Ziyi is the heroine of "The Untamed".

Since the audience are all male CP fans with high traffic, you can imagine how badly Meng Ziyi was scolded.

Let's put it this way: Meng Ziyi, a female lead, was directly removed from the show early due to the scolding from fans of Zhan Zhan and Bo Bo. The popularity of The Untamed boosted Zhan Zhan and Bo Bo's popularity, making them top stars.

As the heroine, Meng Ziyi not only did not benefit from it, but also received a lot of criticism.

This is a drama that has problems from the first glance.

Hearing Wei Jun say this, Meng Ziyi laughed and quipped, "Only a fool would play the heroine in a BL drama."

Director Wei: “Good guy.

You are so angry that you even scold yourself.

"Director Wei, what kind of role do you think I'm suitable for?"

"I don't know what kind of role you are suitable for."

After all, you didn't have a single memorable role in your previous life.

pink. "

"But I know what role I can play to win fans, especially the female star Meng Ziyi's eyes lit up and she quickly asked, "What role?"

This is guidance from Director Wei.

In the industry, Director Wei is well-known for his ability to turn everything into gold.

Of course Meng Ziyi took it to heart.

Wei Jun said calmly, "A strong career-oriented woman will have a strong sense of female independence in the future. A love-minded woman who revolves around a man will only bring traffic to the male lead. If you want to attract female fans, playing a strong career-oriented woman is the fastest way."

"Is that so?" Meng Ziyi thought thoughtfully.

Director Wei thought about it and decided to do Meng Ziyi a favor by giving her a role that originally belonged to her.

"Does Chen Kaige know?"

Meng Ziyi: "Director Wei, what do you think?"

How many people in the Chinese entertainment industry don’t know Chen Kaige?

"Chen Kaige's son wants to enter the entertainment industry and recently wanted to push me into a role. I agreed to give him a supporting role."

After all, "The Empress's Journey Through Time" can be filmed for many seasons, so it needs a lot of supporting roles.

Chen Kaige has already asked for help, it would be inappropriate not to give him this favor.

Besides, the supporting roles are not important anyway.

Absolutely. "

"Then Chen Kaige tried to test me to see if I could play the lead role in a series. I did give Chen Kaige some face to turn him down, but it wasn't that big.

"However, I pointed out a clear path for Chen Kaige: adapting online novels into film and television will definitely be a trend in the future. It will be easy for his son to make a name for himself in this field. I also recommended a novel to his son.

He should have secured the film and television adaptation rights by now. As far as I know, Leon Lai, Adam Cheng, Hu Jun, and Jin Shijie are all set to join the cast.”

Hearing Wei Jun say this, Meng Ziyi's body was already a little excited.

Wei Jun felt this clearly.

After all, he and Meng Ziyi are a perfect match.

"Director Wei, the heroine?" Meng Ziyi asked tentatively.

Wei Jun said directly: "The heroine is too ugly. She is not beautiful in the original novel. You are not suitable for the role. After all, your beauty is here."

Meng Ziyi didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.

of?

At the same time, I am also very curious about the original novel. How can the heroine be ugly? "There is an important female supporting role with a very outstanding role. If you play it well, you will not be inferior to the heroine."

Wei Jun said confidently, "Actually, the most important thing is that this drama has so many talented supporting actors, so I can be sure that the supporting actors will be the ones who become popular in the end."

"Director Wei, can you decide on the plays of Director Chen's team?" Meng Ziyi asked.

Wei Jun smiled and said, "If I ask Chen Kaige for a role, he will definitely give me the female lead and he will be happy after all, favors are mutual.

But there’s no need to, the heroine’s character is actually not as good as the one I gave you.”

"I believe you, Director Wei. What's the original novel called? I'll start doing my homework now."

""The Night"."

Meng Ziyi plays the "Taoist fanatic" Ye Hongyu in "Ever Night".

To be honest, the acting is really good.

Among web series adapted from online novels, "Ever Night" is arguably one of the top ten, boasting excellent quality. (This refers to Season 1, of course.) Season 1 of "Ever Night" boasts a high Douban score of 7.4. This is a male-oriented fantasy web series, so its fan base lacks the potential for fan groups to deliberately inflate positive reviews.

What's more, the main cast doesn't have many fans, and each one is worse than the other.

So this rating is still very realistic.

It's a pity that the first season was well received but not very popular. Then Prince Chen was very ambitious. Although the first season had a good reputation, Prince Chen wanted to become famous quickly so he withdrew from the second season.

Prince Chen withdrew, and the actors who came for Chen Kaige's connections also withdrew.

As a result, the second season of "Ever Night" was a complete failure.

Season 1 is definitely okay though.

Moreover, after Prince Chen left the first season of "Ever Night", he did not make any splash.

To be honest, it would be better to finish filming "Ever Night", at least to make a living. Ye Hongyu, played by Meng Ziyi, is the "Taoist idiot" among the three idiots in the world. She is decisive and ruthless, and she is proud of her beauty. She is powerful and alone, and is definitely a career-oriented strong woman.

This kind of role is much more likely to attract female fans than playing the leading female role.

After listening to Director Wei's brief talk, Meng Ziyi became excited and took the initiative to plant strawberries on Wei Jun's shoulders.

"Director Wei, I want more."

Wei Jun: ...The little girl really doesn't know her place.

The next day, Meng Ziyi asked for leave.

The reason was fever.

However, not many people in the crew paid attention to her, and everyone's attention was on the hot search of "The Empress's Quick Travel Journey".

As expected, "The Empress's Journey Through Time" dominated the headlines again.

Master Jin is a surfing expert.

The main reason is that Director Wei has been very popular recently.

It was his movie that was filmed.

Master Jin must have watched it himself.

After reading it, he was dumbfounded again.

To be fair, he himself felt that the plot conceived by Wei Jun was more reasonable than what he wrote in the original work.

But this is normal.

Great work.

We are all ordinary people, and no one can create a perfect book. Master Jin spent three years revising "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" and made six changes, with the changes basically accounting for one-tenth of the original length.

If the original version of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" was perfect, would Master Jin have to revise it so seriously?

However, most readers are still familiar with the original plot of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

It's the 21st century now. It might be okay to get audiences to watch martial arts dramas, but it's basically impossible to get readers to read martial arts novels.

After all, aren’t online novels great?

Therefore, the original version did not answer the questions raised by Director Wei.

Even the revised version doesn't answer that.

Master Jin expressed his stance on his official account on Station A: "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" will continue to be revised."

Netizens were excited to see Master Jin’s statement.

"Director Wei is such a scoundrel! Master Jin is so old, yet he still asks him to revise the manuscript over and over again."

"Having said that, Duan Yu's age is indeed a problem."

"Given Xiao Yuanshan's hatred for Xuan Ci, it would be illogical not to kill Xuan Ci's child."

"Master Jin, please stop revising Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. You've even married Wang Yu's mother to Murong Fu."

This is real.

In Master Jin's latest revised version of "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", Wang Yuyan finally ends up with Murong Fu.

Then Duan Yu was portrayed as a romantic young man from a noble family who was easily moved when he saw a beautiful woman, while Wang Yuhun had always loved Murong Fu and had never loved Duan Yu from beginning to end.

This plot is actually very realistic.

It's not martial arts.

Readers will definitely feel uncomfortable after reading this. After all, there are definitely fewer readers who put themselves in Murong Fu's shoes than those who put themselves in Duan Yu's shoes. Duan Yu is the protagonist. How can the heroine not like the hero and like the supporting character?

But Master Jin has reached the stage where he no longer cares about his readers.

He can change it however he wants, and no one else can do anything about it.

So later in the film and television version of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", Wang Yu's mother started to be with Murong Fu.

If this kind of plot is made into a TV show, Wei Jun doesn’t know how it can get high ratings.
