Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Zhao Yawen?

On the phone, Yang Liu briefly explained the situation.

It turns out that in addition to singing, Zhao Yawen is also working hard to develop into the film and television industry, especially costume TV series.

Although unlike Lu Xiaoxi, another actor under Yu Dongqing Studio, he filmed the movie "To Our Fading Youth" last year. Although this movie is not as popular as the previous movie "Young You", it has a box office Not bad either, achieving good results of 300 million yuan.

As the male lead in two blockbuster movies, Lu Xiaoxi's acting skills were recognized by the industry, and he was constantly booked into films.

Zhao Yawen quickly became famous in the film and television industry like Lu Xiaoxi, but she also worked steadily. With her sweet appearance and cool temperament, she found her own place in the costume TV drama circle.

Some time ago, Luo Yun strongly recommended her to play the leading female role in a fairy tale called "The Legend of Immortal Moon". She also contacted investors and directors, who were also very interested, but they were not completely settled yet.

Now Luo Yun suddenly left, and the job fell to Yang Liu. Yang Liu kept up his efforts, and the matter was settled by the eyes of each other. Suddenly, "Cheng Yaojin" appeared halfway, and an actress wanted to compete with this female number one.

The other party seemed to have a great background, and the director began to waver. This made Yang Liu anxious. He hurriedly went to look for him again, but the other party actually avoided seeing him.

With no choice but to call Yu Dongqing, Yang Liu saw that there was nothing he could do.

"What's the name of that female star?" Yu Dongqing asked.

"Xiang Hui."

is her?

Yu Dongqing remembered that two years ago, he was invited by director Lu Yongru to do temporary martial arts for a martial arts drama he was filming, and the heroine of that TV series was Xiang Hui!

However, Yu Dongqing has a very bad impression of her. Her acting skills are not good, and she is also very arrogant. She has a pretty face, but I heard that she has the backing of a big benefactor.

After Lu Yongru's TV series was released, Xiang Hui was scolded by the audience, and the TV series also suffered.

Only the song "Men Should Improve themselves" sung by the third uncle became a highlight.

Since ancient times, bad movies have come up with divine songs.

Normally, Yu Dongqing would have thought about asking, looking for connections and finding a solution, but now she really wasn't in the mood.

Now hearing Yang Liu say this, Yu Dongqing replied: "Yang Liu, try your best to get it. If it doesn't work, forget it. Tell Yawen that there will be a chance later."

Yang Liu was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she knew that Yu Dongqing was not in a good mood recently, so she didn't dare to say any more and agreed to follow his instructions.

Seeing Yu Dongqing hang up the phone, Meiliang standing nearby asked curiously: "Brother-in-law, what happened in the studio?"

"Zhao Yawen's filming." Yu Dongqing briefly told what happened.

Meili listened thoughtfully.

"Brother-in-law, who is the director of this TV series?"

"I heard Yang Liu said his name is Yu Wen." Yu Dongqing replied.

"Is it him? Brother-in-law, let me go find him to see if I can help Zhao Yawen win this female lead?"

"You?" Yu Dongqing was a little surprised.

"Yu Wen graduated from Chinese Opera and is also a student of my teacher. He is my fellow student and we have known each other before." Meiliang explained.

"Oh, well, I don't know if Yu Wen buys this account, and Xiang Hui heard that the backstage is very tough." Yu Dongqing reminded.

"Try it"

Seeing that Mingliang was so enthusiastic, Yu Dongqing agreed.

"Then I'll call Yang Liu back." After Yu Dongqing finished speaking, he took out his cell phone.

At this time, Yang Liu and Zhao Yawen were together.

The two are of the same age, neither has a boyfriend, and they are very familiar with each other. After Zhao Yawen became famous, she moved out of a relatively remote place in Qiaozhuang and rented a suite in a high-end community near Dongzhimen. Later, Yang Liu also moved in.

The two of them have each other's company.

Just now, Yu Dongqing refused to coordinate in person on the phone. Yangliu was on speaker phone, so Zhao Yawen could hear it clearly.

"Yawen, I'm really sorry." Yang Liu apologized and sighed: "Hey, it's still my incompetence. If Sister Luo was here, I wouldn't have these problems, right?"

Of course, Yang Liu was a little disappointed, but she comforted: "It doesn't matter. Teacher Yu will have opportunities later, hey. Teacher Yu and Sister Luo are such a good couple, but now."

They already know what happened between Yu Dongqing and Luo Yun, and they also know more or less the reasons. They can only say that it was fate.

At this time, Yang Liu's cell phone rang again. When he saw it was Yu Dongqing, he quickly picked it up.

Yu Dongqing also said more, but said that Meili was willing to help with this matter and asked her to send the details of the negotiations between the two parties for Meili's reference.

"Okay, I'll send it to you right away."

"What's wrong? Teacher Yu is willing to go find Director Yu?" Seeing Yang Liu hang up the phone, he asked hurriedly.

"It wasn't him, it was Director Ming, or Teacher Yu's sister-in-law Mingliang, who said she was willing to help." Yang Liu explained.

Of course Zhao Yawen knows about Meimei, she is now a great director.

"But can she convince Director Yu?" Zhao Yawen was very doubtful.

Yu Wen is not an ordinary person in the industry, and he debuted more than ten years earlier than Meimei.

"Don't think so much. Since Mingliang is willing to help, let her go." Yang Liu said with a smile.

Too

Zhao Yawen nodded.

Early the next morning, Meili drove straight to Jingyuan.

Yu Wen is an independent director and has his own studio, which is also in Jingyuan. Meili didn't call to contact him, but went straight to Yu Wen's office.

By coincidence, Yu Wen didn't go out today.

Seeing Meimei knocking on the door and coming in, Yu Wen stood up and said with a smile, "Hey. Junior sister is back? Is school on vacation?"

"Um."

"Sit, sit," Yu Wen greeted warmly, poured a cup of tea for Meiliang, and asked with concern: "Is your study in London going well?"

"It's okay, but the courses are quite heavy and sometimes it's a bit difficult." Meiliang answered truthfully.

"You are our teacher's proud disciple. Study hard, and when you return from your studies, you can make a few well-received and popular films. Then you will be able to claim the title of the most beautiful director in the country." Yu Wen joked.

"Brother, are you laughing at me? You are the most beautiful director. I have only made one movie. Compared with you, senior, I am still far behind. You are both a movie and a TV series. I envy you so much." Meili smiled.

"Okay, don't let the teacher hear this. The teacher always said that making TV series is not a serious job." Yu Wen laughed at himself.

"Tell me, what do you want from me today? You don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything."

"Brother, it's about you filming a TV series." Meili didn't mince words, and told her about Zhao Yawen, hoping that Yu Wen would still let Zhao Yawen be the female lead.

"Brother, if Zhao Yawen has good looks and good acting skills, she will be much better than that Xiang Hui, right?" Meili said finally.

"I know this." Yu Wen sighed after hearing this:

"Junior sister, you actually know very well that the choice of male and female protagonists in a film and television drama is not only decided by the director, nor the producer, but the investors!

"The investors insist on using Xiang Hui, but I can't help it. I think you know something about Xiang Hui's background."

"I know. As far as I know, the investors in your costume drama are not Huangcheng Film and Television, right?" Meiliang muttered.

"No, but who knows the twists and turns inside?" Yu Wen said with a bitter smile.

"But, senior brother, you also know Xiang Hui's acting skills. She is known as the queen of bad movies. Don't ruin the TV series you worked so hard to film."

this

Yu Wen's face suddenly became ugly.
