MTL - You Don’t Understand The Pain Of Being Popular-Chapter 81 Eighty-one days [two
◎"As expected of the original heroine of the novel, she is indeed very powerful." After hearing the news, Yao Bianliang's eyes lit up. ◎
"As expected of the original heroine of the novel, she is indeed very powerful."
After seeing the news, Yao Bianliang's eyes lit up.
This efficiency is high!
But after thinking about it, according to the setting of the original novel, Director Ren had his eyes on Yao Xinxin the first time he saw her. With this setting, it is not surprising that the casting is decided so quickly.
After the incident was revealed, netizens gave Yao Xinxin mixed reviews. Of course, most of the comments were not optimistic about her.
[Director Ren chose Yao Xinxin? I read that right, Yao Xinxin is not cool yet. 】
【Ahhh, my family Xinxin is finally up to the task, the new drama is great! 】
[There is reason to suspect that Yao Xinxin's Jin took the initiative to use the relationship, otherwise in her situation, it would be impossible to have such a good resource. 】
[Let's save Yao Xinxin's bad acting skills, even if he gets good resources, they can only be wasted. 】
Looking at these comments, Yao Bianliang couldn't help sighing.
There is still a long way to go for the original heroine to stand up again.
She lowered her head and sent a message to Assistant Chen: "Assistant Chen, I have two tasks for you."
Assistant Chen replied immediately: "Okay, Sister Liang, tell me."
Yao Bianliang: "First, I want to accept an endorsement, please help me find it. It is best for a company that has no endorsement funds and is relatively low-profile."
Assistant Chen was used to Yao Bianliang's strange requests, so he responded very calmly and recorded this task.
Isn't it just that your own artist doesn't want a good endorsement, and wants to find a small and poor trash brand? How normal is this.
As a qualified assistant, he has learned to give up trying to figure out the boss's weird intentions.
Therefore, even if the other party makes an outrageous request, he will not be surprised!
Yao Bianliang: "Second, you tell Zhou Fei that I don't need him to be in charge of my marketing in the future, and I will replace it with a new recruit."
Assistant Chen was stunned: "What is Zhou Fei responsible for?"
Yao Bianliang: "I plan to put him in charge of Yao Xinxin."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for more than ten seconds.
Assistant Chen didn't know how to reply.
What's the situation? !
He knew each of the three words Yao Xinxin, but when they were connected together, he couldn't understand them at all.
Asking your employees to help your opponent, Yao Xinxin, do marketing and publicity. Is this a trick that humans can come up with!
Assistant Chen considered it for a long time, and then asked cautiously: "You mean, you want Zhou Fei and others to blackmail Yao Xinxin?"
Yao Bianliang: "Of course not. What I mean is, I still pay Zhou Fei's salary, but their task is not to help me market and promote, but to help Yao Xinxin promote."
Yao Bianliang has long wanted to punish Zhou Fei.
This person made such a big mess for her last time, Yao Bianliang is not a fool, of course he doesn't want to keep such a time bomb.
However, without a proper reason, she couldn't dismiss Zhou Fei for no reason.
This matter is more difficult to handle.
After much deliberation, Yao Bianliang finally came up with such a solution—she herself doesn't want to be harmed by Zhou Fei, so it would be nice if Zhou Fei could harm others!
Coincidentally, Yao Xinxin's marketing team is rubbish.
Isn't it just right for Zhou Fei to help Yao Xinxin market?
Of course, Zhou Fei is also working in her studio, and Yao Xinxin will not know that someone is secretly helping her with marketing.
Isn't this the best of both worlds?
The corners of Yao Bianliang's lips rose slightly: "Why, Assistant Chen, you seem to have a problem?"
Assistant Chen: "..."
He was wrong, he shouldn't be overconfident in his concentration.
Facts have proved that with Yao Bianliang's wonderful ideas, he is still a long time away from being a real qualified assistant.
Assistant Chen: "Okay, I'm going to communicate with Zhou Fei right now."
As far as he knew, the relationship between Yao Bianliang and Yao Xinxin should be very bad.
He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of Yao Bianliang's intention to do so. Simply let go of this idea for the time being.
Anyway, Zhou Fei can figure out Sister Liang's intentions the best. With him around, he must be able to understand Yao Bianliang's deep meaning.
On the other side, after Yao Bianliang explained the matter, he immediately switched to the trumpet.
Of course she didn't have any deep meaning. In fact, she had only one purpose, which was to make Yao Xinxin angry.
[I also want to be cool today: Xinxin successfully auditioned, congratulations! 】
Yao Xinxin was also a little happy. She seemed to have been waiting for news from Yao Bianliang and replied immediately.
【Yao Xinxin: I'm leaving for country X in two weeks to start closed shooting! Xiaojin, thank you. 】
[Yao Xinxin: Unfortunately, netizens still treat me badly...]
Of course Yao Bianliang is aware of Yao Xinxin's knot, but this matter is not so easy to solve.
[I also want to cool off today: Xinxin doesn't have to worry. You are an actor, so of course acting well is more important than anything else. 】
[I also want to be cool today: You can study hard with Director Ren! Improve your own strength and connotation, so that even if the sunspots attack you, you don't have to worry about it. 】
Looking at these words, Yao Xinxin inevitably felt a little complicated.
She thought she might have been on the wrong track all along.
Since she entered the entertainment industry, she has been immersed in the aspects of setting up people, marketing hype, buying navy and so on.
Whether it's her agent, her parents, or other celebrities she knows, they all told her one thing - the entertainment industry is a place to fight for public opinion and popularity.
As for acting, it's just icing on the cake.
But now, Xiaojin has provided her with a brand new way of thinking—
Don't care about public opinion and traffic, just improve your acting skills, focus on yourself, and try to do what an actor should do!
Thinking of this possibility, Yao Xinxin just felt that her heartbeat began to speed up involuntarily.
Her greatest pressure now comes from the turmoil of marketing, popularity, and public opinion. The entertainment industry is a vanity fair, and Yao Xinxin has long been immersed in it, forgetting her original intention.
Yes, she is an actress, and her job is to act.
As long as the trick is performed well, are those other things really that important?
[Yao Xinxin: I understand! Xiaojin, thank you. 】
Yao Xinxin is really grateful to this fan, not only because the other party gave her resources, but also because Xiao Jin opened her up, helped her, and led her to a brand new path.
Yao Xinxin secretly made up her mind that she must thank Xiao Jin after she returns to China after retreating and filming.
But now, she must work hard to act, and she must not let Xiao Jin's wishes be disappointed.
Of course, Yao Bianliang was completely unaware of Yao Xinxin's brain supplement.
After communicating with Yao Xinxin, she finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"Now, Yao Xinxin's side is finally settled," Yao Bianliang stroked his chin thoughtfully, "I don't know how Ling Huanxuan's side is getting ready."
Ling Huanxuan's script is still in the final stage, and she is also very concerned about the other party's progress.
Only when the script is finished, their crew can proceed to the next link and complete all the filming work as soon as possible.
After thinking about it, Yao Bianliang decided to send a message to the other party to ask about the situation.
———
Ling Huanxuan was far more energetic than Yao Bianliang imagined.
On the way back to the studio, she just felt as if she was stepping on clouds, every step was unreal.
She met Sister Liang. Sister Liang not only agreed to the idea of filming a martial arts drama, but also gave her a high price, and let her create freely throughout the process!
Before this, Ling Huanxuan never dared to dream of such a good thing.
When the partners in the studio saw that she had finally come to work, they all looked over with bright eyes.
"How about it, Huanxuan, what did Yao Bianliang say?"
Ling Huanxuan had a smile on her face: "She agreed directly. Not only that, but she also let me take full responsibility for the script!"
The companions were surprised: "Full responsibility?"
Is it the sole responsibility in the literal sense? Doesn't that mean that the screenwriter has the greatest say in the script.
They have also been in the circle for a long time, but no one has ever heard of any crew who is willing to let the screenwriter completely free play.
"So, Sister Ling, you can finally show your talents?" A friend was really happy for her, "Things like "An Hua Biography" that take the blame for others will finally not happen again!"
In the eyes of outsiders, whether the script of a play is good or not depends entirely on the skill of the screenwriter.
But it is not.
In most production crews, screenwriters do not have much control over the script, and they usually need to create according to the requirements of Party A; when the script is revised, anyone can intervene.
Party A's father has many demands, such as "add more emotional lines", "let the audience eat more sugar", "the heroine can't be better than the hero, and the hero's halo should be increased", etc.
The investor took a look at the script and found that the shots he wanted were missing, so he would ask the screenwriter to revise the script.
"How can a sweet pet drama lack the slow motion of the hero and heroine embracing each other in circles? Add it in for me."
In the end, when the script was shown to the actors, various requests had to be made.
Such as "My female star doesn't want to shoot intimate scenes, so I deleted all the kissing scenes", "My artiste thinks this scene is not good, it can't highlight his mighty domineering", "It's too hard to film in the snow in winter, can you There are countless wonderful requests such as changing it to grassland.
Sometimes, when someone from the capital Fangsai comes in, the screenwriter has to add drama to the related party.
If the background of the related household is strong, then the scenes that need to be added are not a little bit. Ling Huanxuan even encountered the situation where the minor supporting role was directly changed to the male lead and the female lead.
In short, a group of laymen came to point out the country, and everyone has different demands. The script that was finally presented did not follow the screenwriter's ideas at all.
Under the interference of many parties, the quality of the filmed dramas is naturally not good.
The plot is not good, the audience scolds, the rating of a certain episode drops, and finally the screenwriter has to take the blame.
This kind of miserable experience makes those who hear it feel sad and those who hear it cry.
"Well, the audience scolded that the plot of Anhua's biography collapsed in the later stage, but this is not the result of random changes made by those laymen."
Speaking of this, the companion felt angry: "Sister Ling, the screenwriter, is the one who gets scolded in the end."
At the beginning, when Ling Huanxuan created this script, she was aiming for the heroine.
As a result, the investors felt that "the male lead and the male supporting role cannot be weaker than the female lead, otherwise no audience will like to watch it." Ling Huanxuan had no choice but to add highlight moments to the male characters, which became a script of "strong women and stronger men".
After that, the director felt that there must be no emotional line, and hoped that Ling Huanxuan would add more ambiguous and intimate scenes.
As a result, this major heroine drama was abruptly changed to Mary Sue.
This is also the reason why the heroine was set up very well in the early stage, but collapsed badly in the later stage.
Because the first few episodes were written by Ling Huanxuan herself, in the later stage, the development of the plot is completely out of her control!
If it's just that, it's still the same.
What's even more bizarre is that the investor stuffed in a female supporting role. The female supporting role is not reconciled to being a small role and wants to add drama.
In the end, an insignificant little character became the best girlfriend around the heroine.
In this way, many plot lines need to be greatly changed, which directly leads to more serious collapse of the heroine's design, more logical contradictions in the plot, and frequent bugs.
Recalling all the past, Ling Huanxuan was also a little helpless, and just sighed lightly.
"Although it was someone else who put forward their opinions, I was the one who wrote the revision in the end. Those netizens scolded me, and it barely makes sense."
Moreover, even if Ling Huanxuan wanted to defend herself, those laymen who made the request would not admit that they were wrong.
They just stand on their own standpoint and want to make the development of the script more beneficial to them. What's wrong with people not destroying heaven and earth for themselves?
When the script was scolded, they would only think that it was because of Ling Huanxuan's inability to write the script.
If her screenwriting ability is good enough to perfectly integrate their wonderful requirements, how could it cause the script to hit the street?
In short, they will definitely not take this blame!
"Forget it, this is not the first time I have encountered this kind of situation." Ling Huanxuan took it very seriously, "When we go to those crews to write scripts, we are actually going to work part-time to complete the script according to Party A's requirements and earn money. Just get the money."
Although she was scolded, she also made money.
But the crew of "The Legend of An Hua" is different.
The word-of-mouth of this show collapsed in the later stage, and the market was smashed to the core, and the investors lost all their money. That was really miserable.
If they do this, they can be regarded as reaping the consequences of themselves.
The friend laughed and winked at Ling Huanxuan: "What about Yao Bianliang's play? You plan to complete it as required, as long as you earn the manuscript fee?"
Ling Huanxuan: "Of course not!"
Just kidding, Sister Liang gave her such a good condition and let her play freely. Switching to other crews, it is impossible to do this.
Because of this, Ling Huanxuan knew in her heart that this was probably the only chance for her to express the story she wanted to write.
Completing the story in my mind is not to complete the task of Party A, but to follow my own heart to create. How can I be careless?
Several people couldn't help laughing when they heard Ling Huanxuan's subconscious denial.
Ling Huanxuan was a little helpless, and sighed softly: "Actually, Sister Liang should have already guessed that I was responsible for the collapse of the plot of "An Hua Biography".
The friend was a little surprised: "Why do you say that?"
"Think about it, I've just created a work with a collapsed heroine and a collapsed reputation. Under normal circumstances, who would invite such a screenwriter?" Ling Huanxuan shrugged.
When everyone heard it, they thought it made sense.
That's right, Yao Bianliang didn't want his new play to hit the market, so it didn't make sense to hire such a screenwriter and let the other party take full responsibility. This doesn't make sense logically.
"So, she actually knew for a long time that the plot collapse of "The Legend of An Hua" was not what you wanted?" The friend's eyes lit up, and she looked at Ling Huanxuan, "She promised not to let people interfere with your creation. Only then can it be fully utilized!"
Ling Huanxuan nodded: "Exactly."
Only now did she understand why Xie Wan'er praised Yao Bianliang so much, thinking that Yao Bianliang had unique insights and insight.
Now it seems that Yao Bianliang really has a very high vision!
Just relying on the film and television works presented in the end, she can make a judgment from the clues and understand the embarrassment of the screenwriter.
This is really not something ordinary people can do!
Thinking of this, everyone admired Yao Bianliang even more.
"Ding dong!"
The phone vibrated, Ling Huanxuan looked down, it was a message from Yao Bianliang.
Yao Bianliang: "Sister Ling, how is your script preparation going?"
The corners of Ling Huanxuan's lips rose, and she immediately replied: "Soon, this week can be completely finished."
She paused, and then asked, "Sister Liang, should we start formal casting now?"
On the other end of the phone, seeing Ling Huanxuan's question, Yao Bianliang also began to think seriously.
Indeed, now that the script has been finalized, Assistant Chen has also contacted a few traffic stars.
Time to start the official auditions!
