Who are you calling powerful?

In the evening, in a small restaurant

Wei Yang, with greasy hair, scraggly beard, and fat cheeks, held a cigarette in his hand and explained to a group of thin men wearing masks.

"Sell it like this in the future. In principle, it is low-key. If something goes wrong, no one can eat it. Is there any problem?"

The men's eyes wandered, and a man with sunken eye sockets said hesitantly: "The medicine is still a bit expensive."

As soon as this was said, everyone joined in, complaining, groaning, and lamenting, hoping that the price could be cut down. Wei Yang took the cigarette in his mouth, glanced at it, and impatiently stopped everyone's discussion.

"Did I sell it for 30,000 or 20,000? Five thousand yuan is still too expensive for you, and the genuine one is 37,000. Do I want this amount? Still think it's expensive? Then just don't eat it."

"Also, can you take off your mask when talking to me? I can't tell who is who. Do you understand the rules?"

Wei Yang's strong question shocked everyone. I brought the medicine. If you listen to me, you can take the medicine. Otherwise, get out.

Tan Zhuo explained carefully: "Brother Yong, this is a sterile environment, it's not convenient for them."

"It's a sterile environment, right? Okay, then take them all."

Wei Yang sneered, slowly smoked a cigarette, stopped talking, and the scene became quiet.

This is a silent game!

When the two sides first met, there was no friendship at all, and everyone was looking at the benefits.

The patients joined forces to put pressure on the price reduction, and Wei Yang seized their pain points and forced everyone to bow their heads. In essence, he still established his own dominant position in this transaction.

Cheng Yong in "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is not a good person. He opened his own store, had a bad temper, dared to smuggle drugs abroad, and was an out-and-out old man in the world.

So he is very familiar with this kind of bargaining scene. After making it clear that he has an absolute advantage, it is easy to grasp the situation.

However, Cheng Yong is not a bad person.

After forcing everyone to take off their masks, seeing their pale faces and unable to bear the scene of coughing in the sterile environment, he still softened his heart, with a flickering look in his eyes, and pinched out the cigarette in his hand with a bit of embarrassment.

"Put it on, and I'll give your group leader a 20% discount at most."

These details reflect the brilliance of humanity in Cheng Yong's character in the movie, paving the way for the transformation later in the movie.

Although the movie "Dying to Survive" has a prototype, it has been adapted a lot in the script creation.

Especially the role of the male protagonist Cheng Yong, the prototype Lu Yong was sick, and then went to India to buy generic drugs. Other patients knew to ask him to help bring the drugs, and later more and more. During this period, Lu Yong was just a purchasing agent, and did not make any profit from it.

From a realistic perspective, Lu Yong did nothing wrong, and he could even be called a "hero", but when it was adapted into a movie, the plot was too bland.

So Cheng Yong became a normal person in the movie, and even a "bad guy" with "all five poisons" in the early stage.

The patient's identity will make him more empathetic to the patients tortured by high-priced drugs, and everyone will keep each other warm, but a normal person who is outside will not have so much experience.

The original purpose of selling drugs was to make money, and there were no other noble ideas. Even if he made enough money and was afraid of risks, he would withdraw.

Such a person is not only more realistic, but also makes the subsequent sublimation more shocking.

Because of the transformation, he began to help patients selflessly as a normal person, from a villain to a saint, from a human to a god. Such a reversal of first suppressing and then praising is very emotionally infectious from an artistic point of view, and it is also the biggest climax of the whole movie.

If "Dying to Survive" was shot according to the prototype, perhaps the reputation would still be good, but the commercial attributes would be greatly reduced.

However, in this way, it is inevitable that some damage would be done to the image of the prototype.

After all, although Lu Yong is a patient, there are reasons for it, but he has never made a profit from it. The character of Cheng Yong is partially smeared.

In the previous life, when "Dying to Survive" was popular, the prototype came out to express dissatisfaction and even wanted to go to court.

So before filming, Wei Yang went to find the prototype Lu Yong, moved him with emotion and reason, and said that he would solemnly clarify it after the release, and donate a certain amount of money in the name of the crew to help such patients.

To be honest, there are many cases where the crew and the prototype or even some descendants fall out. Most people do it for money, but some people are different.

For example, Lu Yong was the "Drug God" back then. He valued righteousness over profit. What he wanted was not money, but respect and reputation.

If the crew had said hello in advance, had a good tone and could discuss things, and had a solution, Lu Yong would not have had to go against you.

"Cut, very good."

Director Wen Muye called out the instruction to pause. As for whether this would pass or not, he had no say, and had to get the nod from Boss Wei.

Wen Muye, a graduate student from the directing department of Beijing Film Academy, has been a director and screenwriter, but he is not famous. Before that, he had always been shooting short films and micro-films.

It was not until last year that he shot a feature film, and it was directed by multiple people, and the work did not have any outstanding performance.

This guy was able to become the director of "Drug God" with this qualification in his previous life, largely because of Ning Hao's [Bad Monkey 72 Transformations Film Plan].

The original intention of this plan was to discover new generation filmmakers and signed many young film directors and a large number of screenwriters.

"Dying to Survive" is the most successful project of this plan, and it was followed by "All or Nothing", as well as some good commercial and art films.

Overall, this program is relatively successful, and it has indeed cultivated a new generation of Chinese-speaking filmmakers.

But now this plan has been blocked by Boss Wei. In other words, he wants to train new film talents earlier than Ning Hao.

Su Lun and Tian Yusheng of "Cohabitation in Time and Space", the former has not yet made it out, and the latter already has the "Predecessor Strategy" series with good results.

Yan Fei and Peng Damo of "Detective Chinatown" were also single-handedly promoted by Wei Yang, and now they have also handed over the answer sheet for "Charlotte Trouble".

Except for the above-mentioned ones, they have cooperated with Boss Wei.

Director Xue Xiaolu, who has become famous in the past two years with "Beijing Falls in Love with Seattle", is also supported by Boss Wei.

Before this, this female director had only directed one film, "Ocean Paradise", and she was not strictly a famous director.

Although "Pancake Man" has a bad reputation, director Dapeng was also given a chance by Boss Wei.

There are also Wu Jing and Deng Chao. These two people turned from actors to directors and made great achievements. They also received the support of Boss Wei.

Of course, the most noteworthy one is Xu Zheng. Not long after Boss Wei entered the film industry, he was able to defy all opinions and reuse Xu Zheng, which ultimately led to the box office miracle of "囧囧".

Also because of the legendary nature of "囧囧", Wei Yang's subsequent promotion became less topical.

But no matter what, Boss Wei is famous in the film industry for daring to use newcomers, and not only dares to use them, but he can also use them well.

The new generation of filmmakers all dream of being spotted by Boss Wei, working for him, and gaining both fame and fortune.

Therefore, Wei Yang did not grandly launch any Seventy-Two Changes Plan. He just asked Blue Whale to launch a support project that valued young filmmakers, and countless talents came to invest.

It was at this opportunity that Wen Muye was pulled out by Boss Wei.

Invisibly, it has become a typical case of Boss Wei reusing new people and exploring new strengths in movies.

But Wen Muye is a new director after all, and he lacks confidence and courage. The crew of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is actually made by the producer Wei Yang.

In the past, Wei Yang was willing to delegate power to the director, but this time he paid more attention to "I'm Not the God of Medicine". In addition, Wen Muye really couldn't control the scene, so he asked more questions.

This is also a bit similar to the original version of the movie in my previous life.

Although Wen Muye was the director at the time, the lead actor Xu Zheng was the big boss + famous director + producer, and there was also a producer Ning Hao, who actually didn't have much power.

Now that two mothers-in-law have become one mother-in-law, and Wei Yang is his boss and nobleman, Wen Muye's mentality may be much better than in his previous life.

Wei Yang came over to watch the replay and nodded. Only then did Wen Muye announce that this was passed and the crew could finish their work for the day.

"You are almost becoming a drama tyrant."

In the dressing room, Liu Shishi, who came to visit the team, had just watched the filming scene and complained about director Wen Muye's frustration, but Wei Yang didn't take it seriously.

"You just know."

Fortunately, TV dramas are large in size and have a lot of material. Except for some key scenes, even Boss Wei cannot review every scene or shot, so the director still has a lot of autonomy.

The movie is different. The total duration is only two hours. Even if there is more material, the size is still there.

Most of the shots and performances are exquisite and strive for excellence. The director's autonomy will inevitably be usurped. Even if he worked with a famous director like Gao Qunshu on "Wushuang" before, Wei Yang still has the absolute say.

Of course, when dealing with famous directors, Wei Yang has to show his attitude so that everyone can talk and discuss.

Even if it is a new director, Wei Yang will usually take care of his face and will not treat him as a puppet. If they have good ideas, Wei Yang will listen to them.

It's just that Wen Muye was a little too cautious when he suddenly came to power, for fear of being replaced by Wei Yang, so he acted like a yes man. It should be better if he gets familiar with Wei Yang's character in the future.

However, in any case, Wei Yang's approach is absolutely a "drama tyrant" in the professional ecology of the Chinese film industry with directors as the core.

There are also such rumors and grievances in the market and among collaborators at the same time, and Boss Wei has long been used to it.

Be dominant!

After working hard to get to this position, if you don't want to be a drama hegemon, how can you become a little daughter-in-law who has to endure humiliation?

…

When Liu Shishi came, Wei Yang did not go back to the hotel where the crew was staying at night, but went to a high-end community.

As one of the important cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, Boss Wei naturally owns real estate in Jinling, and there are more than one.

Wei Yang doesn't come to Jinling many times, but he basically stays in this community every time he comes. The reason is that the angle overlooking the river is very good, allowing him to feel the difference between the Yangtze River in Jinling City and the Huangpu River in the Magic City.

Liu Shishi came once when he was promoting "Celebrating More Than Years". He was not curious about the house. Instead, he hid in the room and didn't know what he was doing.

Wei Yang didn't bother him. Although she said it was a visit this time, it was actually a separation. The crew of "The Witch" was about to start filming. The two of them had their own jobs. It would take more than a month to see each other again.

A farewell is better than a wedding. The separation is also the time when the fire is most intense. This little girl might be preparing some surprises.

Turning on the TV, Wei Yang tuned to the Hunan TV station. Today was not only Liu Shishi's visit, but also the live broadcast of the Golden Eagle Festival awards.

It stands to reason that both Liu Shishi and Wei Yang should go to Star City today. Both of them have been shortlisted for "Nirvana in Fire" and "Legend of Dance".

However, Boss Wei Jin Ying took too much and didn’t want to be distracted, so he didn’t go.

Liu Shishi has also won the Golden Eagle Grand Slam and is not obsessed with this award. More importantly, Damimi is the Golden Eagle goddess this year, and Zhao Liying's "Strategy of the Ming Palace" is expected to win another Gold Cup.

One is a mortal enemy, and the other is a young girl under his command. Liu Shishi, who has a low chance of winning a prize, does not want to be their foil.

This year's Golden Eagle Awards are star-studded, and the Blue Whale series shines even more.

First, Lu Han, Zhang Ruoyun, Tang Yan, Qiao Zhenyu, and the two beauties from Xinjiang Province all slayed the red carpet.

Then Damimi, the golden eagle goddess, made a stunning appearance at the opening, radiating radiance.

Damimi's jersey this time was designed by Hunan Province Taiwan. It has a bit of Thai style. It is very gorgeous. She wears a crown, flaming red lips, a slim golden skirt, a graceful figure, and a long cape behind her, which makes her look even more showy. Graceful and elegant.

Boss Wei felt a little hot when he saw it, remembering the private photos of the shirt 404 that Damimi secretly sent him before.

I wonder if his request to keep the shirt privately can be granted?

Damimi is not only proud of the Golden Eagle Goddess, she also took advantage of the situation to get the first place in the voting and won the Popularity Crystal Cup. Unfortunately, the Golden Eagle Award was restructured. There are only two gold cups this year. Otherwise, Damimi might also be able to win a Grand Slam. .

On the other hand, Zhao Liying, with this year's hit "Strategy of the Ming Palace", grabbed a gold cup among her competitors.

Another golden cup went to Tong Yaya. Her "Ordinary World" was not a hit, but she could not stand the halo of a drama and a masterpiece, which allowed her to rise to the top.

The actor's gold cup went to Wang Lei from "The Ordinary World", Zhu Yawen from "Red Sorghum", and Wei Yang from "Nirvana in Fire" was not ignored and won a popular crystal cup.

This result was dispensable for Wei Yang, but it didn't look good for Liu Shishi.

Zhao Liying, who was fighting against each other, had another bargaining chip.

And now, this year's film and television dramas are basically clear. "Strategy of the Ming Palace" has achieved outstanding results, which can be said to have taken Zhao Liying to a higher level.

Damimi, who has been suppressed for several years, finally took pride in winning the Golden Eagle Awards this year. Although she did not give her full credit, she still enjoyed great success.

With Zhao Liying becoming more and more powerful + Damimi making up for her shortcomings, Wei Yang felt a little headache for Liu Shishi.

And don’t forget, Fan Xiaopang is still watching eagerly from the side, and Tang Yan is not a good one. What’s more worth mentioning is that Nazar, who made a comeback with the help of the web drama, and Rouba, who is on the rise.

Especially Rouba, whose new drama "A Little Smile Is Charming" has only been aired for less than a week, and its popularity is already obvious.

Its popularity has greatly increased, as can be seen from today's award ceremony, the scenes of her pussy are constantly showing, even more than those of Tong Yaya who won the award.

Looking at this situation, Tang Yan is likely to still accompany the next Golden Eagle Goddess, and Dili Rouba may be the newcomer to break the monopoly of 85 Flowers.

The bedroom door opened, and Liu Shishi walked over with a sullen face. Wei Yang quickly turned off the TV to avoid harming Chi Yu.

Just as he was about to talk and change the subject, Liu Shishi handed over his mobile phone, which displayed a WeChat chat page with only a few words.

【I won again this time】

Wei Yang felt a little numb because this WeChat avatar was so familiar to him. He had sent a message just now during dinner. It was none other than Liu Shishi's mortal enemy Zhao Liying.

In fact, Wei Yang also knew that the two had a personal connection, but he didn't expect that he would even mock them.

Isn't this looking for trouble for yourself?

Boss Wei was trying to think of a way to get him out, but Liu Shishi breathed a sigh of relief, put down his phone, and then took out something. Boss Wei took a quick look and his face changed wildly.

"Is this... done?!"

Looking at the two bright red bars, Wei Yang's blood surged. Liu Shishi nodded and explained.

"I haven't been here this month, so I took the test. It must have been that time when you were lazy when I went home. I didn't take medicine afterwards. I came here to visit the class this time because I actually wanted to talk to you about it."

Boss Wei was a little dizzy. No wonder Liu Shishi was hiding in the room just now. He probably didn't think of what to say.

He thought it was a "surprise", but it turned out to be such a big surprise.

Liu Shishi stared into Wei Yang's eyes: "Are you alive or not?"

"Of course!"

Wei Yang didn't hesitate at all, and Liu Shishi's originally nervous and serious expression softened. He gently touched his abdomen with his fingers, and his eyes flashed with tenderness.

However, the news was so sudden that even with Wei Yang's psychological quality, it was a bit unbearable.

After being at a loss for a while, he carefully helped Liu Shishi sit down, then went to the bathroom to wash his face, intending to wake up.

Liu Shishi, who was left behind, looked at the pregnancy test stick in his hand, then at Zhao Liying's WeChat message, with a slight curl in the corner of his mouth.

"Sorry, I won this time!"
