After Lin Yanran wrote these two lines, she took a photo of the red envelope cover and sent it to Gu Siye.
Then he started to read the WeChat messages one by one.
Last night, he was drunk and fell asleep holding the red envelope after meeting Gu Siye. He didn't even have time to read the WeChat blessings sent to him by his relatives and friends.
After accumulating overnight, the amount of information was about to explode.
Although New Year greetings messages are almost all the same, and many of them are copied and pasted and sent in bulk.
But Lin Yanran would still read every one of them carefully.
While watching, Lin Yanran discovered many interesting blessings.
For example, Zhong Xiao.
After the four words "Happy New Year", there was a short essay of one or two hundred words. To sum it up, the general meaning was, thanks to Lin Yanran for being merciful and helping Gu Siye, an old virgin, to find a way out of being single.
After reading Zhong Xiao's words that were both explicit criticism and implicit praise, Lin Yanran replied with a smile.
【Teacher Gu is still very young】
Xia Xingxing also sent him her blessing at exactly midnight, and the content was still Xia Xingxing's style of confession and New Year's greetings.
Like Xia Xingxing, Qiao Ye also sent his blessings at exactly midnight.
The other party's blessing was not as long as Xia Xingxing's, but it was particularly thoughtful.
After carefully reading the other party's message, Lin Yanran was a little surprised.
He understood that Xia Xingxing would send him blessings at the right time.
But he didn't expect that Qiao Ye was the same.
Lin Yanran felt that she didn't help Qiao Ye much during the competition, but she didn't expect that the other party was so loyal.
There were so many New Year greetings messages that it took Lin Yanran nearly an hour to finish reading them.
Then he put down his phone to charge and went downstairs.
After that, Lin Yanran was on vacation. After staying in Australia for a full half month, he flew back to China.
The opportunity for him to return to China was because he received a call from Song Yingming.
The story begins with the entertainment industry’s opening drama of the year.
Just after New Year’s Eve, a big melon broke out in the circle.
When the police were working overtime to crack down on prostitution during the New Year holiday, they happened to catch a celebrity who was soliciting prostitution.
The other party is a singer who pursues traffic, but he has appeared in many variety shows. Because of the good results, he has a good reputation and popularity among the public.
After this incident was exposed, his image collapsed, his fans unfollowed him, and he was criticized by countless people.
Of course, whether fans stop being fans or not has nothing to do with Lin Yanran. What is relevant is that although this popular star has never acted in a drama, he has signed an S-level variety show.
The show is called "Best Screenwriter" and he will be the guest performer in the first episode.
The program was about to start, the news of his participation had already been released, and everything else was ready.
But now that he has been caught soliciting prostitution, he is directly classified as a prostitute.
The program crew certainly doesn’t want his appearance to ruin the long-prepared first episode by filling it with mosaics, so they are now very eager to find a guest with a similar positioning to him to replace him.
However, there are not many stars in the circle who can match the popularity of this traffic star and have not acted in a movie.
After much thought, they thought of Lin Yanran, who had become very popular last year.
After much inquiry, the production team of "Best Screenwriter" discovered that agent Hong Huixue had a tight control over Lin Yanran's business affairs, so they turned to a more reliable method and entrusted Song Yingming, who had a good relationship with Lin Yanran, to try to ask Lin Yanran to save the situation for one episode through this relationship.
Song Yingming took into consideration that Lin Yanran had never acted in a movie before and the production crew was not as close friends with him as Zhang Shanfeng, so he was reluctant to help.
But the person who came to ask him for help was the one who brought him in and was very kind to him.
The entertainment industry is very particular about human relationships, and Song Yingming cannot be ungrateful. It was really difficult to refuse, so he could only call Lin Yanran and tell her about the program crew and his own situation.
"I'm just delivering a message to them. Just listen first. If you're interested, then consider whether to accept it."
Song Yingming felt that Lin Yanran was a sentimental person and easy to talk to, so he was worried that she would agree directly because she was concerned about her own face.
So his tone was not as relaxed as when he recommended Zhang Shanfeng's variety show, and he still couldn't help but give a reminder.
After listening to the program, Lin Yanran was quite interested in it, so he told Song Yingming that he would reply later after asking his agent.
Hong Huixue quickly sent him the information about "Best Screenwriter".
This variety show is the first variety show of the year invested by XX Video, one of the three major video platforms in China.
The platform attaches great importance to it and classifies it as an S-level project.
The variety show’s investment and broadcasting platforms are very strong, and the pre-promotion and marketing are also powerful.
In addition, the mentors and some of the guests were quite luxurious, the filming team was quite reliable, and they were very generous with the money.
Hong Huixue originally wanted Lin Yanran to develop into an actor.
And Lin Yanran has recently wanted to have a chance to try it out.
So after analyzing the pros and cons, the two decided that they could take it.
This episode can be regarded as an in-class test for Lin Yanran’s current acting class, and it can also allow him to learn from experience when working with other actors.
Even if it is really unsatisfactory, it is better to discover the problems and correct them early on in the variety show than to be criticized by the audience for being eye-catching after the film or TV work is released.
One of the purposes of producing "Best Screenwriter" is to discover more new treasure screenwriters and inject more talented fresh blood into the film and television industry.
But except for a few famous ones, most of these screenwriters are unknown.
Even screenwriters who are somewhat famous basically don't have many fans.
Therefore, if the program team wants topics and attention, they still have to rely on celebrities.
On the third day after Lin Yanran signed the contract, the program crew notified him to go to the scene to shoot the first part of the first episode.
Compared to the screenwriter writing the script and shooting the short play later, the shooting content of the first part is much simpler.
Basically there were only two major things to shoot.
The first is to let the audience get to know the participating screenwriters and let them each draw a theme for their first episode.
The second is to assign actors to the screenwriters.
What Lin Yanran needs to record is the part about assigning actors.
There are not many shots of this part, basically just showing my face and then following the arrangements of the program team, I work with a few other actors and a screenwriter.
Lin Yanran's move was considered a rescue, so the entire program team was quite polite to him.
"Teacher Yanran, you can come here to record the show after you put on your makeup."
The staff first took him to a studio and gave him a detailed introduction.
"When the time comes, the camera may come over and do a few sweeps. Usually, they will shoot a few shots when the screenwriter is introduced and when the screenwriter draws a topic."
After the staff member finished speaking, he pushed open the door of the studio.
In an oval room, the floor was shaped into irregular steps, with several seats reserved for guests in each row.
"Just sit in the middle when the time comes."
The staff pointed to the area in the middle, suggesting that Lin Yanran could sit directly in the C position.
Lin Yanran was not interested in who was in the C position. He looked at other positions and found that several people had already arrived.
There are eight screenwriters participating in the first round, and each screenwriter needs at least 3-5 characters in his story, so a lot of actors are needed in each round.
In addition to inviting some popular and talked-about stars, the program team also invited some newly graduated professional actors or small stars to make up the numbers.
The entertainment industry is the most realistic place. If you are not popular, you have no capital to negotiate.
So the young actors were also very conscientious and arrived at the recording site early.
A few sharp-eyed people saw Lin Yan and immediately stood up to greet him.
"Hello, Teacher Yanran."
Some people even bowed to him politely.
Lin Yanran looked at these young actors who were about the same age as her and quickly waved her hand, "Hello, everyone."
After thinking for a while, Lin Yanran finally spoke, "Just call me Yanran, no need to call me teacher, I don't deserve that title."
He smiled and waved his hand, very modestly.
In front of these professionals, he didn't dare to call himself a teacher.
As soon as Lin Yanran finished speaking, she saw Shang Chengcheng standing at the very edge.
He actually has no memories of him and Shang Chengcheng.
However, after returning to the Lin family, he got a general idea from the information he obtained from his brother.
Thinking that the other party was once the original owner's best friend in the Internet addiction treatment center, but eventually drifted apart, Lin Yanran roughly guessed the reason.
But speculation is just speculation.
Lin Yanran didn't know what the other party's current relationship with Bai Tianyu was, so when she saw the other party smiling at her across the crowd, she just nodded politely.
Afterwards, Lin Yanran went to put on makeup and style her hair.
He drank a lot of water in the morning, and went to the bathroom quickly after finishing.
The restroom was on the third floor. Lin Yanran washed her hands and came out. She found that the elevator was occupied, so she took the emergency passage.
The safety passage was very quiet, with only the safety sign on the corner emitting a slow green light.
Lin Yanran had just walked down a few stairs when she heard two male voices whispering something downstairs.
They spoke in a low voice, but Lin Yanran's hearing was better than that of most people, so she could vaguely hear what they were saying.
"Is he really modest or just pretending to be modest?"
"It's fake... maybe I'm actually quite happy inside."
"Alas, there is nothing we can do. He got promoted directly because of the big hit in the draft. He is really lucky."
"What's the luck or no luck? Do you really think that anyone can get into that talent show? Don't you see the lineup? Is he worthy of that position?"
“But he did it.”
As one person was speaking in confusion, the other smiled, as if mocking the other's stupidity.
"If you have a face like that and someone praises you, you will be popular too."
The other person suddenly realized and said, "Oh!" Then he paused and said, "You are not bad looking either. I feel like you have similar temperaments."
"But I don't bother to sell my ass."
As the distance got closer, two laughs became clearer and clearer from the quiet corridor.
At the same time, a mocking voice was heard in the dark corridor.
"Oh? Really?"
