Chapter 16 That's Fate



Zhang Xiaopang repeatedly agreed, showing a genuine sense of joy.

He agreed to everything, and only sat down to continue eating after Liu Yun and the other two left.

Sipping her ice-cold lemonade, Meimei said, "Brothers, you can sit on the street and work will fall from the sky."

"Things are getting better... I've landed a serious big-budget production, a big-production cast..."

Fei Fei listened for a bit, then turned around and couldn't help but laugh: "Director Liu, how did you know he often directs short dramas?"

Liu Yun: "Their expressions are exaggerated, and they use a lot of body language, which is similar to that of a stage actor."

Song Xingfei asked in bewilderment, "Why did you take a liking to him? This role has a lot of screen time and isn't cheap; it can't compare to the price of a background actor in a short drama."

Liu Yun: "If we bump into each other as soon as we come out, then it's fate."

"Also, don't speak so ambiguously. Besides, although there's little hope of it airing, it's still a 50 million yuan production, so we still need to make the necessary preparations."

"Just in case there's an opportunity later, so we won't be caught off guard."

"Opportunity favors the prepared mind, and I'm preparing now..."

Fei Fei: "Huh? Director Liu wants to use Zhang Xiaopang's popularity to promote himself?"

Liu Yun: "Your little circle isn't known to everyone. When he comes to film, we'll let him film. Maybe he'll even post it. Also, we'll prepare some special meals for him. He really enjoyed them."

"After all, this ban is very comprehensive. We can't actively promote it, so we can rely more on word-of-mouth."

"In the end, it's not a bad thing."

Song Xingfei: "-_-||, filming hasn't even started yet, and you're already thinking about publicity?"

"Besides, if our show can't get any publicity, why would we need it?"

"Alright, it's not a particularly important role, so it doesn't matter."

"Anyway, all the actors in the cast are newcomers, so this extra isn't exactly a newcomer..."

Liu Yun chuckled: "Just think of it as me helping others out of poverty. People like this are obviously realistic and here to make money."

"Do you think he didn't know what I meant? He did, which is why he started talking about our film crew as soon as we left."

"She's a highly skilled and ambitious professional, but she's also a very sincere person."

While they were talking, the three of them ate a meal and then returned to the courtyard. Everyone was very busy.

Zhou Rong experienced the overwhelming stress of being a corporate slave right after graduation.

There aren't many female characters in this drama, but Liu Yun's required headdresses and makeup are elaborate, gorgeous, and exquisite.

According to Liu Yun, even in dramas with two male leads, women should not be portrayed negatively or simplified to highlight the men.

With fewer characters, we must strive for excellence, ensuring each character has unique features and stands out clearly.

Especially the concubines in the harem, they also have to act like imperial consorts!

Fortunately, this drama is set in a fictional dynasty, which allows for a lot of creative freedom in terms of makeup and styling.

Fei Fei: "Director Liu, didn't we say we were going to use a historical dynasty as a backdrop?"

"Are we really not going to change anything?"

For the first time, she worried that it was too realistic.

Liu Yun smiled and said, "Isn't it just for our own enjoyment and not going to be broadcast? Why worry so much?"

Feifei: "I'm just afraid that some people will see this and keep nagging."

Liu Yun said thoughtfully, "I don't know who leaked the inside information, insisting that we must apply the existing history."

"Actually, it's just to make it easier to pass the censorship; there's no explicit rule against filming fictional stories."

"We are not worried about passing the review, and we don't need to care too much."

In fact, if both male leads can be broadcast, then the alternate history is really no longer a problem.

Little Universe: "...Host, from the moment you took on this role, you've been thinking about how to get it aired, haven't you!"

Liu Yun: "It's good that you know, there's no need to say it out loud."

Xiao Tongzi: "You want to get the General Administration to lift the restrictions?"

Liu Yun: "That would be too chaotic. I would never do something that harms society."

Little Universe scratched its head, eager to know what its host should do.

However, it knew very well that the host wouldn't tell it anything that hadn't been settled yet.

While handling matters related to the film crew, Liu Yun missed the three days Lin Ying had worked as her assistant and felt that she should find another assistant.

Things online are managed by a system, but some things require real-world communication, which is where an assistant comes in.

At the same time, he also had time to let Xiaotongzi keep an eye on his graduation project.

Xiao Tongzi was puzzled: "Isn't it enough that it's already been paid? Why are you paying so much attention?"

Liu Yun: "I want to gain some popularity so I can exchange it for things. I can't wait until this drama is finished filming."

Little Tongzi was completely confused. What did the host want to exchange for this time?

Didn't you even think of taking advantage of the lottery?

It was a little strange that its host was suddenly being so rule-abiding.

Meanwhile, the graduation project review is proceeding step by step. Because we need to take into account the time of the leaders and everyone, the process is not in a rush.

Liu Yun had been away from school for more than half a month before she finally started looking at her graduation project.

When the graduation project theft incident occurred, the relevant government departments intervened, and even Jiang Shuo, who had benefited from the theft and was biased towards the perpetrator, couldn't cause any trouble.

The chain of evidence that Liu Yun presented back then implicated many people, including Jiang Shuo.

While others were being arrested and sentenced, Jiang Shuo, who had lost all his hair, was still suspended without pay and placed on probation.

They originally wanted to sabotage Liu Yun's graduation certificate, but now they don't have the right to do so anymore.

Even now, he's no longer included in the viewing of graduation projects.

Because of this incident, Liu Yun's name is known to all the school leaders. Some admire her courage to resist, while others are unhappy that she disregards the school's reputation.

Regardless, when a group of people look at Liu Yun's graduation project, they will always have some different emotions.

Although a director's graduation project is something you can pass as long as you submit it, this time, Liu Yun was treated differently.

In the end, Su Bai suggested that the author's name be obscured before reading, and the leaders, not wanting to cause a scene on the spot, all agreed.

And so, Su Bai placed Liu Yun's work last.

Since that's what they said, everyone assumed that Liu Yun's work would be mixed in with the others, unpredictable, and would simply go by without attracting attention.

Little did Su Bai know that he had already read Liu Yun's work, had great confidence in it, and placed it at the end.

The leaders were thoroughly poisoned by the preceding "classic" films about youthful pain, awkwardly funny comedies, and pretentious didacticisms.

All I can say is that theory is theory, and practice is practice.

Only after seeing the finished product do you realize the mistakes a novice makes; the same mistakes will still be made.

Occasionally, a few of the shows are watchable, and you can see familiar faces in them. Even without looking at the cast and producer credits, you can still tell that they hired outside help.

"This term is rather disappointing!" The top leader sighed, his voice filled with deep disappointment.

I originally thought that with all this commotion, this year's class would produce many exceptionally talented individuals.

Only in this way can the school's reputation be restored!

It seems just average now.

Thinking about it carefully, if even the class monitor is stealing other people's work, is there any hope left?
