Become Famous Another Day

Lu Yanhe has never reviewed the script with a group of actors like this, stepping into the character's perspective, speaking to the lines, and telling what he saw and happened.

I have participated in script readings before, but the atmosphere of that occasion was more like a meeting.

 At night, Lu Yanhe was lying on the bed, with fragments of the script flashing back in his mind.

 I dreamed at night, dreaming that I was holding Chen Siqi and running through the night city.

It is a deserted city, with ashes slowly falling at the end of the night.

Lu Yanhe woke up from a dream in the middle of the night and sat on the bed, his mind went blank, and he felt exhausted.

-

 Fortunately, there was no drama about him in the morning.

 Otherwise, he thinks he might have a headache today.

Lu Yanhe really didn’t know why he suddenly seemed to be seriously ill.

 But he knew that all of this stemmed from rewriting the script with everyone yesterday. He vaguely felt that he was getting closer to the world where Meng Bai lived.

 At eight o'clock, Chen Siqi suddenly sent him a message: Have you gone out?

Lu Yanhe heard the vibrating sound of his cell phone, opened his eyes, glanced at it, and was stunned for a moment. Then he remembered that he had made an appointment with Chen Siqi to meet Xu Xiaoyin this morning.

 I need to communicate something with Xu Xiaoyin.

 He sat up, rubbed his head, and said: I forgot, I'm still in bed, I'll come right away.

Chen Siqi: Are you still in bed at eight o'clock? Are you not feeling well?

Lu Yanhe said: No, I just didn’t sleep well yesterday. I woke up in the middle of the night. I didn’t fall asleep again for a long time and I was very sleepy.

Chen Siqi: Then I'll go talk to Sister Xiao Yin myself. You can catch up on your sleep and come over to have lunch with us. I don't think anything else matters. It's more appropriate for you to speak up about Xu Mingyue's matter. She is Your senior sister.

Lu Yanhe originally wanted to struggle over, but Chen Siqi sent another message: Don't force yourself to come over. It's not something that requires you to accompany me. Have a good rest.

Lu Yanhe was indeed sleepy, so he gave up and lay down again. He replied with a good word, put his phone aside, and fell asleep again.

-

 “Why didn’t Yan He come today?” Xu Xiaoyin asked.

Chen Siqi said: "He didn't sleep well last night and fell asleep again in the morning. I told him not to come, to rest first, and then come over to have dinner with us at noon."

Xu Xiaoyin nodded and asked, "Is he filming recently?"

"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "He said it was a situation he had never encountered before. I originally thought that acting in this movie would be easier and not so tiring."

Xu Xiaoyin laughed, "I watched Yan He's dramas. Except for "Six People", which he wrote himself, they were all bitter and hateful characters. I guess none of the dramas were really easy to shoot. You can tell by watching his dramas. It’s not easy for him to act.”

Chen Siqi handed the plan in his hand to Xu Xiaoyin and said, "Sister Xiaoyin, this is a supplement we plan to make. Please report it to the company."

Xu Xiaoyin took it in her hand and nodded, "Okay, it's not a big problem. The sales of "Jump Up" are now very stable. If you make a supplement, the society will give the green light."

“We are going to publish this supplement first and then put it on the electronic shelves, and we have communicated with Yemai.com,” Chen Siqi said.

Xu Xiaoyin was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.

 Jiangyin Publishing House has always hoped that the sales of the magazine "Jump Up" can continue to increase. However, "Jump Up" seems to have reached a bottleneck period. The sales volume of recent issues has not increased much, and has remained at around 80,000 copies. In fact, it is not that the number of readers of "Jumping" has not increased, but that most of the readers that "Jumping" has attracted through the popularity and spread of the Internet still choose to read the magazine in the three-day free issue of Yemai.com, or Purchase the electronic version.

 The audience for paper books seems to have come to an end.

Jiangyin Publishing House has been trying to get "Jump Up" to be canceled during the three-day free period on Yemai.com... Of course, this is basically impossible.

 This is the cooperation framework negotiated from the beginning.

 Canceling the three-day free period of "Jump Up" on Yemai.com will cause Yemai.com to lose hundreds of thousands or even millions of user traffic every month.

 "Jump Up" is now the most stable channel for Yemai.com to attract new users.

 Even "City Travel", in which Lu Yanhe participated, did not have as good a traffic-drawing effect as "Jump Up".

The reason is that several serialized novels of "Jump Up" have consolidated regular readers, and in each issue, different stars and celebrities are invited to write columns or be interviewed, which will attract some new readers. .

“City Travels” follows the path of literary youth and is not as popular as “Jump Up”.

 That’s why Chen Siqi came up with the idea of ​​making a supplement.

This idea came out of the success of the Summer Special and Winter Special.

 The summer special issue and winter special issue are still published on the normal schedule, but that issue has been changed into a special issue.

  The supplement is a separate theme plan outside of regular publishing, and is a work outside of regular publishing.

Chen Siqi wants to make a supplement. Firstly, because there are so many manuscripts in "Jump Up" now that the space for twelve issues a year cannot be effectively digested. Secondly, because everyone wants to do something innovative, but "Jump Up" "Not long after its publication, they did not dare to take risks in the main issue, so they came up with the idea of ​​​​creating innovative columns in the supplement.

 This idea was also supported by Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe has always felt that online novels are very developed in China, but there is no broad soil for short and medium-sized novels. This is actually a pity.

Especially for movies, most of the time long novels are not suitable for adaptation into movies. Instead, short and concise short stories are more suitable.

 Some novels that do not fit the tone of "Jump Up" can be published through supplements.

　　The copyright agency that cooperates with "Jump Up" has been promoting the adaptation of some short stories.

 Because of Lu Yanhe's relationship, the magazine "Jump Up" has also attracted much attention from the film and television industry, and has a unique advantage.

However, because neither Lu Yanhe nor Chen Siqi are willing to sell at a low price, so far, they have only negotiated an adaptation of Li Zhibai's short story.

Chen Siqi asked again: "How is the reprint of Miao Yue's "Late Spring" going?"

Xu Xiaoyin nodded and said: "It has successfully passed the topic selection meeting and is looking for a designer to design a new cover."

"That's good." Chen Siqi smiled, "We will plan more and more single books in the future."

Xu Xiaoyin said: "The book market is currently in a slump, but if the books of the authors in your "Jump Up" series can sell well, they will definitely be given the green light."

"With "Jump Up" for promotion, it won't be unsalable." Chen Siqi said, "Besides, you are also very professional editors. We will do the front-end and you will handle the back-end. Sister Xiaoyin, we will definitely be able to launch a batch of New writers come out.”

Chen Siqi and Lu Yanhe established Tiaoqi Culture Media Co., Ltd. and slowly signed a group of writers who often contributed to "Jumping". They were basically new writers, such as Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin, who had already published with Jiangyin Chen Siqi had no interest in the well-known writers who had signed contracts with the agency. He only signed a long-term contribution agreement separately and advanced their manuscript fees for them.

 Miao Yue signed with them because of special circumstances. She is also the only writer here who has published two books and is no longer a newcomer.

Xu Xiaoyin has always been very satisfied with the approach of Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi in this regard. They are very clear that their focus is on making magazines, not on being a publishing agent. Setting up a company and signing new authors is also to better support a group of new people and help everyone operate and incubate copyrights.

It is impossible to hand over the copyright to someone like Liu Jiazhen to the author of "Jump Up", and Chen Siqi did not lower his salary because of this, and he was given adequate treatment in all aspects.

As for the new authors signed by Chen Siqi and others, when they want to publish a single book, they will also give priority to cooperation with Jiang Yin.

 For example, the reprint of Miao Yue's "Late Spring".

 Because Lu Yanhe stars, there will definitely be many publishers willing to reprint "Late Spring".

 Chen Siqi directly found Xu Xiaoyin.

-

At noon, Lu Yanhe rushed to the hotel with groggy eyes and said to Xu Xiaoyin: "Sister Xiaoyin, I'm sorry, I'm in a bad state."

Xu Xiaoyin looked shocked when she saw that Lu Yanhe had dark circles under his eyes.

 She rarely saw Lu Yanhe like this.

 “What kind of torture did you suffer on the set?” She couldn’t help but sigh.

Lu Yanhe shook his head and waved his hands with a wry smile, "It's not the crew's torture, it's my own problem."

Xu Xiaoyin said: "In the movie "Nineteen Years of Crime," Ruyi finally decided to cast Chen Ziliang instead of Li Zhibai and Yan Liang. I heard the news and thought I had to tell you quickly."

"Huh?" Lu Yanhe looked surprised, "Chen Ziliang? Is he going to act?"

 Is Ruyi crazy?

Xu Xiaoyin nodded, "Originally, their first choice was you, but after you refused, they started to contact others."

“They actually looked down on Li Zhibai and Yan Liang and chose Chen Ziliang?” Lu Yanhe was still in disbelief.

Xu Xiaoyin: "Chen Ziliang signed his film and television contract to Ruyi, so Ruyi gave him this meeting gift."

 Lu Yanhe: “…”

Xu Xiaoyin: "Also, although he has not acted much, he is a big star after all."

 “A big star with a notorious reputation.” Lu Yanhe immediately added. Xu Xiaoyin smiled and said, "It's a pity. I really hope you can act in this movie."

"I decided to act in "Six People" at that time, so I gave up "Nineteen Years". In fact, it was because I didn't have time to act in "Nineteen Years". Otherwise, I would definitely have acted in "Nineteen Years". "Nineteen Years" would not have been able to accommodate my time. ." Lu Yanhe said, "The role I am looking for is only the second male lead."

"Yes, it is indeed a pity." Xu Xiaoyin nodded, "If it weren't for you, I don't know when this novel would be known to others. Maybe it would have been dormant and not known."

Lu Yanhe asked: "Brother Jiazhen, do you have any new works?"

"He is preparing, but has not yet decided what to write. "Nineteen Years" and "Spiral of Silence" were both successful, which put him under great pressure and did not dare to write the next book easily." Xu Xiaoyin said.

Lu Yanhe said: "If Brother Jiazhen can't think of a good story for the time being, why not write a column first and write about his life."

Chen Siqi said: "We went to ask for a manuscript, but he kept saying that he couldn't write prose, so he didn't agree."

Lu Yanhe said to Xu Xiaoyin: "Brother Jiazhen is a very good storyteller, and it must be interesting for him to talk about his own life. I think many people must be interested in the daily life of a suspenseful crime novelist."

Xu Xiaoyin said: "Then I'll talk to him again and see if I can convince him."

"Okay." Lu Yanhe laughed, "Actually, Sister Xiaoyin, we have one more thing to discuss with you."

 “Huh?” Xu Xiaoyin was stunned for a moment, a little surprised. She thought she had already said everything she wanted to say today.

"We hope that Senior Sister Mingyue will work with us full-time after graduation." Lu Yanhe said, "Siqi's work here is very busy, and there are more and more things to do. Senior Sister Mingyue used to work in Jiangyin. Internship, contact us on behalf of Jiang Yin. In the future, we will have to deal with more and more things with Jiang Yin, daily magazine publishing, supplements, and single books by writers, etc. We need someone who is very familiar with Jiang Yin. To take charge of this matter, Senior Sister Mingyue happens to be very familiar with us and Jiang Yin, so she is the most suitable candidate, so we want to discuss this matter with you."

"Come here to poach someone." Xu Xiaoyin couldn't help but smile when she heard this, but she wasn't surprised.

 She actually had a premonition long ago.

"Xu Mingyue is only an intern in our Jiangyin. If she wants to work with you, of course she can. The decision is in her own hands."

"She doesn't want her decision to affect our cooperation, and she's even more afraid that you will be disappointed in her. She has always regarded you as her master."

Xu Xiaoyin: "How could it be possible? She is overthinking it. Now "Jump Up" is the most important book list of our Jiangyin Publishing House. Of course we are also very happy that she can come here and connect with us as the representative of "Jump Up" ”

Lu Yanhe heard what Xu Xiaoyin said and breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you very much, Sister Xiaoyin."

-

After lunch with Xu Xiaoyin, Chen Siqi went to pay for the bill and said goodbye to her at the door of the hotel.

 Chen Siqi looked at Lu Yanhe and asked, "Where are you going?"

 Lu Yanhe said: “I want to go to the crew.”

 Zou Dong has already followed. He was eating nearby just now, waiting for Lu Yanhe.

Chen Siqi asked: "Is it convenient for me to go to the place you shot?"

 “Okay, it’s okay.”

"Then let me go with you. I'll take the plane back to Jiangguang in the evening." Chen Siqi said, "I'll go see the place where you film."

"good."

Lu Yanhe brought Chen Siqi to the set. When the staff saw the girl appearing next to Lu Yanhe, they were stunned and curious about her identity.

It is inevitable for people to see a girl next to a boy and wonder if she is his girlfriend.

Especially for popular stars like Lu Yanhe.

There are some proxies squatting outside the crew - since they filmed here, more and more people know that Lu Yanhe is filming here, so more and more people will gather here, including proxies, who want to film Lu Yanhe.

 Chen Siqi followed Lu Yanhe with a calm expression.

Someone asked excitedly if that was Lu Yanhe’s girlfriend?

Someone replied calmly, "Don't get excited, that's just Chen Siqi, a high school classmate who started a magazine with Lu Yanhe."

Chen Siqi couldn't help but smile when he heard their discussion.

 She and Lu Yanhe walked into the campus.

Chen Siqi asked: "Do most of your scenes be shot here?"

Lu Yanhe said: “This is the main scene, and there are other shooting scenes.”

Chen Siqi nodded and said: "This place... looks very old. I didn't expect that there is such an old school in Yuming."

“It’s no longer a school, it’s a cram school, just like in the play.” Lu Yanhe said, “At that time, Liu Bige took a fancy to its oldness.”

The news that Lu Yanhe brought a girl to the set was heard by Kong Fan and others before Lu Yanhe found the main team.

 One by one, they stood in the corridor and looked around.

Chen Siqi looked up and saw a few heads poking out from the corridor above. She smiled and asked, "Are they the actors who acted in this play with you?"

"Um."

 “It seems like they all like you.”

“Routine operation.” Lu Yanhe said to Chen Siqi with a slight curl of the corner of his mouth.

-

"Pretending, if there is no adultery between the two of them, I will be blind." Chen Ziliang exited the search interface with disdain - five minutes ago, he searched for Lu Yanhe and saw someone photographing Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi walking into the set. video.

  Many people in the comment area said that she was not Lu Yanhe’s girlfriend, but just Chen Siqi, another editor-in-chief of "Jump Up".

  It’s true.

 Chen Ziliang sneered.

His agent Yan Wei asked him what he was talking about.

 Chen Ziliang was too lazy to say anything more, so he just said it was nothing, and then asked: "Has the contract for "Nineteen Years" been over?"

"The legal department has finished reviewing the contract and is ready to sign it." Yan Wei turned around and glanced at Chen Ziliang who was sitting behind him, and said, "This time you signed the film and television contract to Ruyi. Mr. Mo is not very happy. Make an appointment with him. Mr. Mo, have a meal and say something soft."

"What's there to say? I've been singing songs for so many years, and he still makes less money?" Chen Ziliang looked disgusted, "I'm greedy and asked me to leave the film and television contract in Galaxy. What film and television resources does Galaxy have to give me? "

Yan Wei: "That's the truth, but not many people would be willing to give up their interests just because it's true. You still need Mr. Mo to support you in Xinghe. Don't make the relationship with him so tense."

 Chen Ziliang was silent for a while before responding.

During this period, Chen Ziliang was in very bad condition.

  Feedback on new songs is very average. Except for Yinzong, there are almost no good collaborations with him. This is especially reflected in business invitations, and the quality of the brand has plummeted.

 Chen Ziliang’s music style is not suitable for film and television OSTs.

Had it not been for his precarious position, he would not have wanted to transform into an actor at this time.

“Actually, Ruyi really values ​​​​you. I heard that Li Zhibai and Yan Liang both had people help them win this role, but in the end Ruyi gave it to you.” Yan Wei said.

"The producer of "Nineteen Years" had always wanted Lu Yanhe to play this role. It was because Lu Yanhe refused to play the role that he gave it to me." There was a layer of disgust in Chen Ziliang's eyes, and he didn't know who it was for, " I didn’t expect that one day I would have to eat the leftovers that Lu Yanhe didn’t want.”

 Yan Wei was speechless and didn't know what to say.

 Chen Ziliang said: "Yan Wei, do you think I am going to lose my temper?"

 Yan Wei: “Of course not!”

Chen Ziliang looked at the street scene passing outside the car window, fell silent, and stopped talking.

 When he asked this question, he actually already knew the answer.

 He himself knew what the answer was.

Yan Wei said: "Momentary gains and losses are nothing. Didn't Lu Yanhe also experience the bottom for several years before? You are capable, and you don't need to belittle yourself because of temporary gains and losses."

 Chen Ziliang said nothing.

As soon as I woke up today, I saw a lot of encouragement from people. I immediately sharpened my knife and wrote this chapter during my lunch break.

thanks, thanks. (End of chapter)
