Luo Hao said he wanted to treat Wen Ying to a meal, and also invited the leading actress who had just finished filming to come along.
The small restaurant near the crew was bustling with activity. Luo Hao ran over to negotiate with the proprietress and asked for a small private room.
The tables and chairs are all worn out, but it is already a high-end hospitality standard. Ordinary extras would not be willing to come here to eat.
The heroine looks down on such places, but Wen Ying is famous in the industry, and the heroine wants to get close to Wen Ying - it is still unknown whether the drama Shui Mingyue will be popular after it is broadcast, and it would be great if she could play the heroine in Wen Ying's next script.
With this idea in mind, the heroine did not put on any airs in front of Wen Ying, and kept talking to her with a smile.
Wen Ying was dealing with the beautiful young lady's enthusiasm while observing Luo Hao's words and actions.
Wen Ying looked at Luo Hao with some preconceived prejudice.
After looking for a long time and not noticing anything unusual, Wen Ying was wondering whether she should pretend to be naive again.
Shui Mingyue's novel adaptation rights are valuable relative to other writers. Currently, Shui Mingyue's works have yet to achieve success in film and television adaptations. Wen Ying's two television series, "Young Idol" and "Xun Yong," are huge hits, and the film and television adaptation rights for them are more valuable than Shui Mingyue's.
If Luo Hao really wanted to cheat the copyright from Shui Mingyue, why didn't he cheat her?
During the meal, Wen Ying deliberately acted silly and took the initiative to reveal her intention to sell the copyright, as if she didn't care about money: "The price is secondary, the main thing is the effect of the film."
Shui Mingyue agreed very much, "I think the same as you. Anyway, I don't plan to make a living by selling adaptation rights. If I want to make money, the royalties from the novels are enough."
Wen Ying is playing dumb, but Shui Mingyue is genuine; she truly doesn't care much about the profits from selling film and television adaptation rights. Shui Mingyue even cites the well-known martial arts author, Mr. Jin, as an example, saying that in 1999, Mr. Jin sold the television adaptation rights for one of his novels to CCTV for a mere one yuan in transfer fees.
"Mr. Jin only made one request: he hoped that CCTV could film his book to the same quality as the Four Great Classics."
There was yearning in Shui Mingyue's tone.
If the adaptation rights of Mr. Jin's works were really to be sold at market price, how many tens of thousands of "one dollar" would it cost?
Although Shui Mingyue is not as wealthy as Mr. Jin, she has already begun to imitate Mr. Jin's behavior.
Wen Ying was already starting to have a headache.
After all, Wen Ying's dislike for money is just an act, but Shui Mingyue's indifference should be real.
"I don't really care how much it sells for, but selling the adaptation rights for one dollar is too cheap. After all, I'm not Mr. Jin. I'm worried that the film and television company will not cherish the rights after buying them for one dollar."
Wen Ying had to emphasize the gap between herself and Mr. Jin, as well as the weight of the three words "Central TV".
Shui Mingyue smiled and said, "I didn't say it was only worth one dollar. I was just giving an example."
When playing the role of a silly and innocent girl, Wen Ying paid close attention to Luo Hao's movements the whole time.
Wen Ying thought Luo Hao would be moved, but Luo Hao never interrupted her from beginning to end. Instead, the heroine interrupted her frequently. When she heard that Wen Ying didn't care how much the film and television adaptation rights of her work sold for, the heroine couldn't wait to introduce a film and television company to Wen Ying.
Wen Ying: ...I’m tired.
The heroine is beautiful and Wen Ying is not ugly either.
Luo Hao's gaze was always on Shui Mingyue.
Perhaps because Wen Ying's eyes were too blunt, Luo Hao was embarrassed to smile: "I haven't read much, so I don't understand what you're talking about. I won't give you any random advice."
Although he didn't understand the topic of conversation between Wen Ying and Shui Mingyue, the expression on Luo Hao's face was "Educated people are so awesome."
Shui Mingyue said softly, "It has nothing to do with how much you read. You have a strong ability to understand."
Shui Mingyue's recognition made Luo Hao even more proud.
The two had only known each other for a short time, but they already had a tacit understanding that no one else could interfere with.
Wen Ying failed to pretend to be naive and naive, and ate the food on the table in silence.
After dinner, Wen Ying played on the crew for the whole day. Even with her searchlight-like eyes, she didn't notice anything wrong with Luo Hao. Instead, the heroine misunderstood her and thought that Wen Ying was interested in Luo Hao.
"Luo Hao often asks Teacher Mingyue for advice on the script. Teacher Mingyue praises Luo Hao for his understanding. The whole crew knows that they are good friends."
The heroine wanted to please Wen Ying but didn't want to offend Shui Mingyue, so she took the initiative to remind Wen Ying.
If Wen Ying knew that Luo Hao had feelings for Shui Mingyue and wanted to do something about it, the heroine would not care.
"No, you misunderstood. I think Luo Hao fits a character in my book a bit, that's why I always look at him."
The heroine's eyes lit up: "Teacher Xiaoyu, do you have a new work to shoot?"
Wen Ying said vaguely, "I do have this idea, but the project hasn't been launched yet."
The heroine wanted to find out more about the inside story, but Wen Ying looked at her watch and said it was time to go: "I'll tell Mingyue that we're done for today and we can come back tomorrow to play."
The heroine smiled and nodded, "Teacher Mingyue is happy that you are coming over, and our director is happy too."
This is the first time Wen Ying comes here today. The director is rather reserved and didn't talk to Wen Ying. If Wen Ying comes again tomorrow, the director will probably let down his reserve.
In the past, Wen Ying spent all her time attending classes at school except for participating in the publishing house's promotional activities, so people in the circle had no way to get to know her.
Now that Wen Ying has taken the initiative to visit the set, she is giving people in the circle an opportunity, and everyone wants to get to know her.
Zhang Guangzhen is a popular person in the eyes of others, and so is Wen Ying.
The actors wanted to perform the play written by Wen Ying, and so did the director.
Wen Ying went to the crew for two consecutive days. Not only did she not find anything wrong with Luo Hao, she also saw many of Luo Hao's strengths.
