Director Wei just smiled and continued to work hard.

That's what people say.

He just listened.

Anyone who takes it seriously is really stupid.

Of course, no matter how much fun he has, Director Wei will also take the responsibilities he should take.

"Don't worry, I will say hello to Sun Honglei.

Director Wei gave Jiang Shuying a reassurance.

“Although ‘Mr. Good’ has nothing to do with our company, I didn’t invest in it.

But if I say something, they should still give me some respect."

“Thank you, Director Wei.

Jiang Shuying was delighted.

"You're welcome, you deserve it.

Director Wei clinked glasses with Jiang Shuying, then glanced at her and said sarcastically, "It just feels like you and Sun Honglei don't look right together."

Jiang Shuying chuckled and said, "Don't say that in front of Teacher Sun."

"I said the same thing in front of him. You two are really not a good match. It's hard to imagine you playing a beautiful, wealthy woman in the drama falling for a poor, ugly chef."

In Director Wei's opinion, "Mr. Good" is actually a middle-aged Mary Sue idol drama.

It is no different from low-level idol dramas such as "Let's Watch Meteor Shower Together".

It’s just that the leading actor is a little older.

The core hasn't changed at all.

In younger idol dramas, the overbearing CEO usually falls in love with a busty commoner. Mr. Good goes the other way, with a rich, beautiful, overbearing woman falling in love with a poor, ugly chef.

When you reach middle age, you have accomplished nothing.

He also smokes, drinks, and is addicted to gambling.

It doesn't even reach the average level of an ordinary person.

But the beautiful, rich girl likes him.

The female psychologist played by Wan Qian likes him.

The ex-girlfriend played by Che Xiao still likes him.

But in the play, Sun Honglei has no good looks, no money, and a bunch of bad habits... All the girls in the middle-aged Mary Sue idol drama revolve around him - there is nothing wrong with him.

But I have to say, the audience really bought into it.

Low-age idol dramas have always been very popular.

This kind of middle-aged Mary Sue drama has always had high ratings.

For example, "Mr. Good".

There was also the "Sea of ​​Stars" starring Mr. Bai and Raymond Lam later.

No matter how much people complain about it on the Internet, the ratings are really not low and the audience just loves to watch it. There's nothing we can do about it.

The entertainment industry is ultimately market-oriented.

After hearing Director Wei's complaints about "Mr. Good", Jiang Shuying, who had also read the script of "Mr. Good", felt a sinking feeling in her heart.

"Director Wei, do you think the script of 'Mr. Good' is bad?

"Yeah, it sucks."

Director Wei nodded calmly and said, "I wouldn't film this kind of script if it were given to me.

Can't afford to lose that person.

"And the logic doesn't make sense at all. The most amazing drama I've ever filmed is 'Tokyo Raid', but it's also logically sound.

Given the level of hatred our country has for the country next door that is doing well, it would be completely reasonable for us to retaliate against them as long as we have the ability to do so, and the audience would not find any fault with it.

So even though it's a fantastic drama, the core logic of "Tokyo Raid" is fine. "Mr. Good," a middle-aged Mary Sue idol drama... has a problem with its logic."

Is there a problem with Chinese people hating people from the country on the other side of the strait who are living a good life?

—No problem at all.

Nine out of ten Chinese people hate people from the country across the strait who are living a good life.

Given the chance, these nine people would definitely be willing to take revenge on each other.

So, although "Tokyo Raid" is a masterpiece, its core logic is not problematic and the audience also thinks there is no problem.

But the logic of Mary Sue idol dramas is problematic.

Especially the logic that beautiful girls all over the world revolve around a poor and ugly middle-aged man and love him to death is even more problematic.

What is the current state of the dating and marriage markets?

This kind of thing is unlikely to happen in reality.

So this logic is wrong.

Director Wei was too lazy to shoot scenes that had completely wrong logic.

He couldn't convince himself.

Hearing Director Wei say this, Jiang Shuying hesitated: "Should I still shoot?"

Director Wei laughed and said, "Of course you have to shoot it. Even if the script is bad, the ratings won't be bad. After all, it's melodramatic enough.

There is no necessary relationship between quality and performance. This is a very common and helpless thing in the entertainment industry.

But accept reality.

"Director Wei, I feel relieved when you say that.

Jiang Shuying breathed a sigh of relief.

Director Wei just said that the script of "Mr. Good" was bad, and she thought Director Wei was not optimistic about "Mr. Good".

Since Director Wei is optimistic about it, there is no problem.

With Director Wei endorsing her, Jiang Shuying was in a good mood as she knew there would be no problem with her leading role.

"Come on, Director Wei, let me toast you.

Director Wei clinked his glasses with Jiang Shuying, then joked: "What? Want to get drunk again?"

Jiang Shuying rolled her eyes at Director Wei and grumbled, "I got drunk last night to give you a chance, but you were useless.

Director Wei chuckled: "That's because I know you will take the initiative to create opportunities again."

"You just rely on your wealth and status to act recklessly. You think you're great just because you're rich."

Director Wei shrugged. "It seems quite remarkable indeed. Wait a minute, I'll take a call."

At this time, Director Wei's phone rang.

Director Wei was a little surprised when he saw the caller ID.

"Brother Honglei?

Sun Honglei didn't exchange pleasantries with Wei Jun and went straight to the point: "Xiaojun, are you going to rob all the actresses in the crew of 'Mr. Good'?"

Director Wei: "...How did you guess what I was thinking? Ahem, why wouldn't I tell you anything nonsense?"

Talk nonsense.

I haven’t touched Wan Qian yet.

I don’t know Che Xiao either.

How can you defame someone's innocence out of thin air?

Sun Honglei was speechless in response to Director Wei's confession.

In the end, he could only advise with deep sorrow: "Xiaojun, you should take care of your body when you are young, otherwise you will regret it when you are old."

Director Wei blinked and sighed, "Brother Honglei, your emotions reveal your story."

Sun Honglei was so angry that he wanted to hang up the phone.

But he endured it.

You can't mess with this guy.

Wei Jun didn't try to provoke Sun Honglei anymore and asked, "Brother Honglei, why did you suddenly say that?"

Sun Honglei asked: "Are you with Jiang Shuying?

"Hey, how do you know?"

"She posted on WeChat Moments."

Wei Jun frowned and said, "Brother Honglei, wait a moment and let me take a look."

"Don't look, I will definitely not lie to you about this kind of thing.

"Xiaojun, you can tell Miss Jiang that she will definitely be the heroine of "Mr. Good" and the contract will be signed tomorrow. But just consider it as giving Brother Honglei a favor. Don't touch Che Xiao and Wan Qian anymore, otherwise our crew will become your harem."

Sun Honglei was also helpless. There were only a few female actors in "Mr. Good".

Guan Xiaotong, the second female lead, was taken by Director Wei.

The leading actress Jiang Shuying was chosen by Director Wei again.

If Wan Qian and Che Xiao can be won over, the crew of "Mr. Good" will definitely become Director Wei's harem.

The problem is that Director Wei has nothing to do with the movie "Mr. Good". He neither invested in it nor participated in the filming.

The crew had to work hard to send the actress to Director Wei.

What is this thing called?

Sun Honglei is very tired.

Director Wei was also quite ashamed.

"Brother Honglei, who do you think I am? How could I possibly sleep with every woman I meet? Don't worry, I definitely won't."

Sun Honglei didn't believe a single word of Director Wei's promise.

He just did his best and left the rest to fate.

What else can I do?

After hanging up the phone with Sun Honglei, Director Wei opened his WeChat and took a look.

I didn’t find Jiang Shuying’s circle of friends.

He looked up at Jiang Shuying.

"Sun Honglei told me that you posted on WeChat Moments? And I was also in it?"

"No, I'm not stupid, how could I possibly send your photo?"

Jiang Shuying said, "I just took a picture of your silhouette and your hand. If you're not familiar with me, you definitely won't be able to tell it's you."

Jiang Shuying took out her phone and let Director Wei take a look.

Director Wei nodded slightly after reading it.

indeed.

It's basically impossible to tell it's his.

But it's still hard to hide it from people who know him.

Perhaps guessing Director Wei's thoughts, Jiang Shuying said, "Don't worry, I set it so that only Sun Honglei and the director and producer of 'Mr. Good' can see it. No one else can see it. I just sent it to them on purpose."

Director Wei: ...Female celebrities who can make it big in the world really do have some skills.

It’s just that Jiang Shuying’s scheming is a little shallow.

It can be used in more valuable places.

Now that it is being used like this, Director Wei may not be particularly angry, but he certainly won't be completely free of resentment.
