"If you don't ask, and I just tell you, wouldn't that make me look like a low-brow? It would be boring. We're chatting, and the emphasis is on interaction!"
Lu Xiaoting was very confident and even gave a reason.
Especially since Lu Xiaoting could say such words seriously, Lu Ziyao also laughed.
Her brother is sometimes very funny and humorous, haha!
Tang Jing: ...
I don't want to say anything anymore, so I'll just get back to the point: "So, what do you know? Can you tell me?"
Tang Jing's tone afterwards really had a kind of helpless compromise with a hint of emotionless perfunctory.
"Okay, okay, get ready, I'm going to talk."
No matter what, Lu Xiaoting still found it quite useful.
Lu Xiaoting started up again, and started another big sister-praising scene: "The plot is so great, the style is so perfect, who else can do it except my dear Xiaobao! Take it, take this drama for me!"
“It’s Zizi’s work!”
Tang Jing was a little surprised, but also felt that it seemed reasonable, because Lu Xiaoting's tone and manner just now were particularly cocky, and he looked like he was showing off.
She should have guessed it just now. If she had said it just now, she would not have given Lu Xiaoting the opportunity to show off.
"What are you accepting? Are you being invited to act? You can't even accept it if you want to. Maybe you're not worthy enough!"
Although Lu Xiaoting is her boss, she is the one who handles many of Lu Xiaoting's affairs, so Tang Jing does not have the awkwardness of a superior and a subordinate when talking to Lu Xiaoting. Instead, she acts more like a friend.
Lu Xiaoting: ...
"How can you say that? The original author of this work personally invited me, so doesn't that count? Why am I unworthy?"
Lu Xiaoting retorted with dissatisfaction, and directly dragged Lu Ziyao out to make an issue of himself, proving that he was still very popular.
"Ahem, I'm just stating the facts. I don't mean to target anyone. Zizi, don't take my next words too seriously!"
Before Tang Jing refuted Lu Xiaoting's words, she took precautions in advance. She had no intention of targeting anyone, especially Zizi.
"Sister Jing, when you say that, I suddenly feel a little panicked."
When Lu Ziyao heard her brother being criticized and looking deflated, she was still watching the show and laughing secretly, but she didn't expect that she would suffer the same fate the next second.
Especially after Tang Jing said the following words, she became even more flustered.
But it’s okay, we have known each other for so long. If we really have ill will towards each other, we won’t be friends for so long.
"It's okay, Sister Jing." Lu Ziyao assured Tang Jing that it was nothing.
She is not that fragile.
"Well, let me tell you, when I was reading the comics this afternoon, I also looked up the original author's information. I didn't know it was Zizi at the time, so I was just analyzing it realistically. The author's level is indeed very high, but she's only an upper-middle-level cartoonist, not a master. She probably doesn't have much say in the film and television adaptation. She can't just hire anyone she wants to act in the role."
"Does this count as saying something bad to me?"
Lu Ziyao thought Tang Jing was going to say something even more heartbreaking, but he didn't. Instead, she felt that these words were a compliment to her!
She is still easy to satisfy.
Not every author can become a great writer. Sometimes, both the ability and opportunity are needed to become famous.
It is common for great authors to have their works adapted into film and television, but it is quite rare for mid-level authors like them.
Just as Tang Jing said, she really has no say in this matter.
"So, what's the point of the original author looking for you?"
Tang Jing said that the first part was nothing, the second part was what really hurtful.
"Speaking of which, I can't afford to invest in a comic-book adaptation? Would I let my little treasure have no say?"
Lu Ziyao didn't react at all. Lu Xiaoting couldn't let his sister lose face like this. It's not like he doesn't have the capital to be so arrogant!
"No, no, don't spend this spare money."
Lu Ziyao rejected the proposal. If she really wanted to do this, she would have done it long ago. Just like Lu Xiaoting said, investing in a drama is really nothing.
It's just that there's really no need.
"However, I told them that if I could get Mr. Lu to join, then I would have the right to speak and the absolute rights to the script."
Lu Ziyao acted first and asked for your consent later: "I made a promise first, now it depends on what you think."
"Just look at the normal work arrangements and project evaluations. Don't give any special consideration to my reasons."
Lu Ziyao had not intended to tell them directly that this comic was her work, but her brother guessed it.
Then let’s show our hand.
"Aside from the fact that it's my little treasure's work, I think this is still worth taking on."
Lu Xiaoting first expressed his opinion. Anyway, he can accept the job. He is just partial to his little treasure. What's wrong with that?
And his little treasure is so outstanding.
"Well, my opinion is similar. You can take it. It's not bad to try a new genre."
Tang Jing felt that her opinion was the most objective. This was her previous thought, and she didn't know that this work was Lu Ziyao's.
Now that we know it’s Lu Ziyao’s, it’s even better. It will be easier to work with her in the future.
"By the way, I was threatened and banned last night. Are you sure you want to give me a new job and invite me to play the leading male role? What if I cancel it?"
Now that everyone has reached a consensus, Lu Xiaoting couldn't help but want to play a little trick.
"Come to think of it, I just found out yesterday that you, Lu Yun, are the eldest brother. Your family is truly full of hidden talents."
Tang Jing was shocked when she saw the trending search yesterday. She wanted to ask Lu Xiaoting what big shot he had offended again. She was scared to death.
Later, when I saw Lu Xiaoting's calm look and the way he replied to Weibo, I realized that we are all family.
She really was the type to hide it and never tell anyone. The main reason she knew about Zizi was because Lu Xiaoting always bought gifts for Zizi. Whenever he saw something nice while filming, he would think of buying it for Lu Ziyao.
At that time, she thought Zizi was his secret girlfriend, so Lu Xiaoting had to explain that she was his biological sister.
It’s true. If Lu Xiaoting hadn’t discovered any clues, he would never have said it.
The Lu family is really low-key.
"Whether or not to ban you depends on Zizi's opinion, doesn't it?"
She also watched the video that was exposed yesterday. The meaning is very clear. To put it simply, Zizi should do whatever she wants.
Lu Xiaoting also seemed to accept it and did not resist at all.
To be honest, Zizi is definitely the group's favorite.
