Chapter 43 Looking for a Director

After Ye Yi left, Ji Changfeng just drank tea by himself and didn’t even look at the contract left by Ye Yi.

But in the evening, he curiously picked up the script and flipped through it casually. He was shocked when he read it and began to read the script carefully.

The more he read, the more shocked he was. He began to get excited. His acting cells that hadn’t been beating for many years began to get excited.

Ji Changfeng decided to make this movie after reading only half of the script! If he didn’t make such a good script, he would really be unworthy of his identity as an actor.

Since he made up his mind, Ji Changfeng immediately decided to contact Ye Yi, but he didn’t have Ye Yi’s contact information. Just when he was considering whether to ask the agent for Ye Yi's phone number, he suddenly saw a phone number on the last page of the script.

Ji Changfeng didn't hesitate at all, he took out his cell phone and called, not caring at all that it was already the middle of the night.

...

When Ye Yi received the call from Ji Changfeng, she was still awake, and was discussing some unfinished procedures about Chuangshi Media with Gu Shichen.

When the ringtone rang, Ye Yi immediately answered the phone. A familiar cold male voice came from the other end of the phone, "Mr. Ye, this is Ji Changfeng."

Ye Yisi was not surprised by the call from Ji Changfeng, "Actor Ji, has he figured it out?"

Actor Ji? Gu Shichen slowly raised his head and looked at Ye Yi meaningfully. Would this woman plan to hire a hidden artist right after taking over the company?

As for why Gu Shichen thought so, it was mainly because the timing was not right, and it was obviously not suitable to discuss work.

Gu Shichen remained expressionless, but listened carefully to what Ye Yi said.

Ji Changfeng on the other end of the phone said with a smile: "Mr. Ye's script really touched me, and I agree to participate."

Ye Yi curled her lips after hearing Ji Changfeng's answer. The male lead was settled.

Gu Shichen, who was standing aside, seemed to be talking to the actor Ji opposite him. He didn't know what he said, and then Ye Yi started to giggle. Gu Shichen frowned unhappily.

Ye Yi continued chatting with Ji Changfeng about some things about movies. They were very happy chatting and added each other on WeChat after hanging up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Yi found that Gu Shichen was looking at her with a strange look. Ye Yi was puzzled, "What's the matter?"

In order to avoid misunderstanding Ye Yi again, Gu Shichen decided to ask first, "What's the matter that actor Ji called you so late at night?"

Ye Yi answered truthfully, "I plan to let him participate in this movie, and he called me now to give me a reply."

Hearing that they were discussing work, Gu Shichen's mood improved a little, but he still said unhappily, " If you have any problems, can't you talk about them during the day? Do you have to call in the middle of the night and disturb other people's rest?"

Ye Yi didn't care at all, "He has already started to retire and enjoy his old age. It's good that he agreed to participate in the performance. Besides, I haven't rested yet."

Gu Shichen said uncertainly: "Retirement and enjoy his old age? Is he very old?"

Ye Yi was a little dissatisfied: "Who said that you have to be old to retire and enjoy your old age."

If she hadn't been forced to take over this broken company, she would have retired and enjoyed her old age after filming the variety show.

Ye Yi thought for a while and then said: "But the actor Ji does seem to be quite old, he seems to be over 50."

Gu Shichen's face looked better after hearing Ji Changfeng's age.

Gu Shichen coughed lightly and said awkwardly, "Is the funding enough?"

Ye Yi's eyes lit up when the word funding was mentioned. "Money is something that the more the better. The more funding, the better the film will be."

Gu Shichen nodded, took out his mobile phone and transferred 50 million to Ye Yi.

Ye Yi looked at the long series of faces behind the number and almost smiled like a flower. She flattered, "Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your strong support for our movie!"

Gu Shichen was amused by her attitude, "Promising."

Everything is secondary in front of money.

...

The next day, Ye Yi went to find Ji Changfeng again to formally sign the contract.

Now the male lead has been confirmed, but there is still a particularly important problem, we have to find a director.

The director in the company now is definitely not good enough. He can only be an assistant at best. Her ability to shoot one movie after another is not fake.

The original owner definitely does not have any connections in the entertainment industry. This matter has to be handed over to Nan Qinwan. As an agent, Nan Qinwan should know some directors.

In Chuangshi Media.

After Ye Yi told Nan Qinwan about this, Nan Qinwan immediately began to contact her previous connections.

However, since she has left this circle for many years, and with the special instructions from Haitian Entertainment, no director is willing to join their crew.

Nan Qinwan and Ye Yi kept contacting suitable directors in the office, and each of them was either already directing a movie or had something else to do.

Ye Yi took a sip of water and said unconvincedly: "I don't believe that there is no suitable director in such a big entertainment industry!"

Nan Qinwan sighed and was about to comfort Ye Yi when she suddenly had an idea and thought of someone.

"Xiao Yi, I know a director who is particularly suitable!" Nan Qinwan stood up excitedly.

"Who?" Ye Yi asked, looking at Nan Qinwan's excited expression.

Nan Qinwan said word by word: "Zhao Sheng."

"Zhao Sheng?" Ye Yi looked at Nan Qinwan with some doubts. In the original owner's memory, there seemed to be no director named Zhao Sheng in the entertainment industry.

Nan Qinwan sighed and said, "He has been hidden for several years because he offended the capital."

Ye Yi was even more confused, "Sister Qinwan, are you sure he can still do it now?"

The reason why Ye Yi asked this was mainly because this director had been hidden for many years, and Ye Yi was a little skeptical about his current ability.

Nan Qinwan smiled and said, "I know you're worried, but you'll be relieved if you know the dramas he's filmed."

"Then sister Qinwan, can you tell me what dramas he's filmed?" Ye Yi was a little surprised that Nan Qinwan actually thought so highly of this director.

Nan Qinwan looked at Ye Yi and slowly spoke, "Zhu Shen."

When she heard the word "Zhu Shen", Ye Yi exclaimed, "What!" Then she calmed down and continued, "Isn't the director of Zhu Shen Li Wei?" The reason why

Ye Yi was shocked just now was because Zhu Shen was the pinnacle of domestic fairy dramas. Although it was a drama more than ten years ago, no fairy drama has been able to shake its position so far. It is the recognized king of fairy dramas.

At first, the drama "Exorcism" was not well received because the actors in this drama were all newcomers.

However, this drama directly became the number one in ratings that year and became popular both at home and abroad. The

crew of this drama directly won many awards, and the newcomers who participated in the drama directly became first- and second-tier stars.

This drama is still a legend in the circle, and has been imitated but never surpassed.
