Magic Modified Huayu

"I'm about to join a new crew, a costume drama about power struggles, a big production.

I read the script and it feels very good.”

Upon hearing this, Tang Yan glared at Director Wei.

Director Wei talked to her about it last night.

She clearly expressed her refusal to Director Wei, saying that she didn't want Director Wei to seduce her boyfriend.

What does it mean now?

Don't give her cake, give her boyfriend cake? Tang Yan was so angry that she laughed.

"How come such a good movie suddenly came out? Which director shot it?"

Tang Yan controlled her anger.

Then she was very surprised.

"Yang Wenjun, Director Yang, won the Magnolia Award for Best Director."

"Director Yang?"

Tang Yan is also in the circle, so she has naturally heard of Director Yang's reputation.

"The director Yang who directed 'Secret Fragrance', 'The Happy Past of the Old Ma Family', 'The Blue Blind', and 'The Woman of the Swordsman Family'?" "Yes, that's him."

Tang Yan murmured, "It turned out to be him."

This person has nothing to do with Director Wei.

"What's the name of the play?"

"'Crane Huating', the name is a bit difficult to pronounce, but the script is very well written."

"Has the broadcast platform been decided?"

"It's settled, the oil depot."

Tang Yan: "..." She realized that she had really misunderstood Director Wei.

"Tangtang, our wedding may have to be postponed. Can we hold it after I finish filming this movie?"

Tang Yan: "...well, your career is the most important."

"Tangtang, you're so nice."

“Well, career is the most important thing.

I have something else to do, so I’ll hang up now.”

After Tang Yan ended the call, Director Wei immediately tried to clear his name: "It has nothing to do with me."

Tang Yan nodded.

The platform is not Station A.

Yang Wenjun and Director Wei have never worked together.

This matter really has nothing to do with Director Wei.

and so……

"Tangtang, does this seem like fate?"

"Not like."

Tang Yan said decisively, "Director Wei, can you show me the script for the first season of 'The Age of Surprises'? I'd like to hear your filming ideas. I heard the male and female leads are divorced? And the male lead has found a new love?"

"Correct."

"Is this considered cheating?" "Yes."

"Then why would that woman accept the pursuit of a married man?"

Director Wei laughed: "As adults, you understand my ill intentions and I understand your pretense of reserve. Those who understand will understand.

I'll give you the script shortly, Tangtang. Do you want to stay and watch two more episodes tonight? I'll discuss my creative ideas with you in depth."

Tang Yan: “…Yes!”

Again, we're adults.

You understand my evil intentions, and I understand your pretense of reserve! Director Wei laughed again.

Chapter 241: Fire, theft, and best friend protection, but still no protection

"Tangtang, do you really not need me to help your boyfriend?"

Director Wei said that he is really a kind person who is willing to help others.

"Rumors are circulating that I only promote female celebrities, but these are all just rumors."

Director Wei looked at Tang Yan, who was lying on the sofa reading a script, and explained seriously, "Actually, I have helped a lot of male stars."

Tang Yan turned her eyes away from the script, looked at Director Wei, and asked, "For example?"

Director Wei thought for a long time.

For example, who is coming?

I got it.

"For example, the leader, I helped him a lot, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to remove the oil so quickly."

Tang Yan's tone was hard to describe: "So he got divorced later."

Director Wei was furious: "What does his divorce have to do with me?"

Tang Yan looked at Director Wei with the same look as when she looked at a scumbag.

"Do you dare to say that you have no relationship with his ex-wife?" "Of course I dare."

Director Wei answered without hesitation.

"I swear to God, I have nothing to do with his ex-wife, we never slept together once.

Tang Yan was a little surprised.

"Ah? It's really nothing? Why are people in that circle saying you two are related?"

Director Wei: "...The entertainment industry is really losing its bottom line. They spread rumors about everything and everyone believes it. Tangtang, can you be more discerning?

There are rumors in the industry that your current boyfriend was the third party in your previous relationship. Is this true? "

Tang Yan: "The rumors on my side are indeed not to be believed, but the rumors on your side are all very plausible."

"It's all fake, I'm actually a good man who keeps himself clean.

If Director Wei hadn't said this, Tang Yan might have actually believed it.

But after Director Wei added this sentence, Tang Yan started to read the script again.

"I've heard of the crew of 'Crane Huating'."

Director Wei's words drew Tang Yan's gaze back.

"Have you heard of the crew of 'Crane Huating'?" Tang Yan was a little curious: "I haven't heard of it either."

Director Wei complained: "There are no secrets in the industry. This producer has contacted Station A before. I have some impression of it."

"Station A is not optimistic about this drama?"

"I can't say I'm not optimistic about it. I haven't asked about the specifics. This kind of drama is a small matter to me.

I remember the conclusion reached by the person in charge was that the script of this drama was average, not bad but not good either, and the protagonist was a bit tortured, so it was unlikely to become a hit.

Plus, the investment was a bit high, and it was difficult to add advertising to a costume drama, so the return on investment wasn't great. After weighing all the factors, I rejected it."

Normally, ancient costume dramas generate traffic.

If you want to promote someone, it’s best to use ancient idol dramas.

But if a drama is made not to promote people but to make money, then urban fashion dramas are definitely the most profitable.

Because urban fashion dramas can ask for sponsorship.

In reality, sponsorships from major brands can be seamlessly integrated, and some advertising fees can be earned at the same time.

In terms of production costs, urban fashion dramas far outperform costume dramas.

Tang Yan certainly understood this logic, so she was not surprised when she heard Director Wei say that Station A was not optimistic about costume dramas like "Crane Hua Ting".

"Is it a bit cruel to the protagonist?" Tang Yan grasped the key point.

Director Wei recalled the content of the play "Crane Hua Ting" and nodded affirmatively.

It must be said that he had actually watched this play in his previous life.

Not an ordinary abuser.

The plot is roughly like this: Crown Prince Xiao Dingquan lost his mother and sister when he was young and was not close to his father.

His early experiences made him extremely eager for family affection, and he always tried his best to keep the only relatives around him.

Xiao Dingquan respects and fears his father. He hopes to gain his father's approval, but is also afraid of facing the embarrassment when his hopes are dashed.

However, King Qi and his father-in-law, Li Baizhou, the secretary of the Central Secretariat, have repeatedly caused trouble, not only persecuting the only cherished people around Xiao Dingquan, but also deepening the gap between Xiao Dingquan and his father.

The prince's teacher Lu Shiyu had hoped that the upright Lu Ying would succeed him as the prince's strong supporter. However, by chance, Lu Ying's daughter Lu Wenxi met the prince, got to know him, and then secretly promised to be together forever.

After his close relatives were killed one after another, Xiao Dingquan, who was deeply influenced by Lu Shiyu's Confucianism, firmly fought against the villain's conspiracy with the gentleman's principles of family, country and the world.

After her father and brother met with misfortune, Lu Wenxi transformed herself into a female official of the East Palace and silently guarded Xiao Dingquan. She helped him solve the military horse case and the Tong Yao case, and finally cleared the grievances of her father and brother and brought the treacherous villain to justice.

Xiao Dingquan and Lu Wenxi's feelings for each other continued to deepen as they worked together.

Two timid but brave people were not afraid of hardships and sacrifices, and they stayed together for the peace of the country.

If you only read the plot summary, you would think that this is just a play where the male and female protagonists work together to fight monsters.

But in fact, the male and female protagonists in this play were basically suppressed.

And the male protagonist is truly a pure descendant of Confucianism.

hard working.

The main thing is to be able to endure.

It’s okay to let the protagonist down.

The villain must never be wronged.

Director Wei would not shoot this kind of movie.

"Have you seen Nirvana in Fire?" Director Wei asked.

Tang Yan nodded: "Of course I have seen Lao Hu's plays."

The four little beauties all have a good relationship with Brother Hu.

At least the relationship was good at the beginning.

Up to now, the ones who have a relatively good relationship are Tang Yan and Liu Shishi.

Da Mimi must have broken up.

As for Liu Yifei, I'm really not familiar with her.

After filming "Chinese Paladin", she and Brother Hu had little contact.

However, Tang Yan has always kept in touch with Brother Hu.

As both of them are from Shanghai, they have a lot of communication both privately and openly.

Of course, she had also seen Brother Hu's plays.

Director Wei described it this way: "You can think of The Story of Yanxi Palace as the opposite of Nirvana in Fire. In Nirvana in Fire, the male protagonist uses all sorts of schemes and tricks to actively target and frame others.

In "Crane Huating," the hero is framed by the enemy with all kinds of conspiracies and tricks."

Tang Yan understood instantly.

"It does seem like the style he likes, more realistic."

Director Wei complained: "This is not realism, this is called literary youth disease, it needs to be treated.
