"Don't talk about this carelessly, or you'll get yourself into trouble."
"What's there to be afraid of? This will become public knowledge sooner or later, won't it?"
"I just didn't expect such a big company to be so petty."
"I had heard before that this company deliberately kept Xia Nuan under wraps, but I didn't believe it."
"Anyway, I believe it this time."
"They've lost all their resources, and they still want to poach the lyricists that others have hired. They're really shameless."
The two people chatting sat diagonally opposite Li Dongyang. Although their voices were not loud, they were loud enough for Li Dongyang and the other two to hear.
Qu Hengsheng isn't a particularly big music listener, but he does know a little bit about this circle.
Cai Cai is exactly the opposite of Qu Hengsheng.
He's incredibly well-informed, like a little news anchor, about when new songs will be released and whose songs are good.
I overheard the conversation at the next table and leaned in to listen.
"How can there be such a big difference between companies that are the same size?"
"Xia Nuan's songs are really good. Hearing this song reminds me of my first love."
"I'm listening to Ling Yuechan, what the hell is this singing?"
"The lyrics are so-so, and her singing skills are nowhere near Xia Nuan's level. How dare she be on par with her?"
Judging from their conversation, they must be big fans of Xia Nuan.
"Trying to poach lyricists is a complete waste of resources."
After chatting for a while, the two paid and left.
Li Dongyang also received a message from the two of them.
It means the other party wants to poach him.
Li Dongyang smiled and asked, "Is this about money?"
Xia Nuan should still be promoting her work right now. What would she think if she knew that Ling Yuechan wanted to poach her lyricist?
Fortunately, his corner was very solid.
Otherwise, Xia Nuan might really suffer a loss.
"Dongyang, what are you secretly laughing about?"
"The food will get cold if we don't eat it soon."
"We'll skip the drinking at noon today, because Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li have other matters to attend to this afternoon."
Zhang Wenbing and Li Songbai probably contacted the second filming crew because of Li Dongyang's New Year's Eve short drama.
This is beyond doubt.
After lunch, Li Dongyang returned to his office and rested briefly in a chair.
2 PM.
I went to the conference room as soon as I woke up.
The artist management manager, director, producer, and Li Dongyang were sitting in the conference room looking at actor profiles.
Shangcheng Company didn't have any specific actors, so Chaofan was in charge of casting.
As a department head, one should definitely prioritize cultivating the artists within their own company.
If we really can't find a suitable candidate, we'll consider looking for someone from other companies.
After all, the cost of artists from their own company is relatively low.
Once you gain a certain level of fame, you can earn a lot of money by taking on roles in other companies' productions.
The talent manager displays the information of all the company's existing actors on the projector screen. Of course, when encountering an artist that is being groomed for special attention, the manager will linger a little longer to ensure that the artist gets a role in the script.
There are four main actors in "It's Not That I Can't Be With You": the female lead, the male lead, and two supporting actors.
The story mainly revolves around contemporary college students who, facing the challenges of finding a place to share a small apartment, struggle together. The four of them spend hundreds of nights in that small apartment before ultimately going their separate ways.
The protagonist, through hard work, diligence, and eloquence, ultimately became a winner in life, marrying a beautiful and wealthy woman.
One of the girls successfully became an executive.
Another girl ruined her life because of a moment of indulgence in pleasure.
The boy, because he was idle and only played video games all day, ultimately failed to gain a foothold in the big city.
Decades later, the group met again.
Hard work pays off wherever it takes you, and the male protagonist eventually became a billionaire.
He has a loving wife and two successful children; he is truly a winner in life.
They are looking for a male lead with strong potential for development.
After three hours of effort, the roles were roughly decided. The group had no disagreements on the casting, and their opinions were surprisingly consistent.
Now that the roles have been chosen, all that's left is the audition.
As for the minor roles, Li Dongyang will not participate in those.
He believes in a witty and insightful perspective.
It's already the end of October, and the Chinese New Year is just a few months away. Shangcheng has given them a deadline of releasing the film before the New Year, so their schedule is very tight.
After selecting the right person, the audition was scheduled for the next day.
Of course, these were directly handed over to Qu Hengsheng and his team.
Li Dongyang won't participate, since he still needs to write the script.
There's no need to waste your time on this.
afternoon.
Li Dongyang got off work.
As soon as I reached the door, I saw a tall, slender, and incredibly elegant woman standing there.
This person is none other than Tangxin, who just returned from filming out of town.
Li Dongyang recognized her at a glance.
"Winter Sun?"
Tangxin smiled and nodded to Qu Hengsheng and Cai Cai.
As a former model, she looked almost as tall as Li Dongyang when she wore high heels.
Compared to her, Cai Cai, who is 175 cm tall, looks exceptionally petite.
Qu Hengsheng patted Li Dongyang on the shoulder and chuckled, "Hey kid, is this your girlfriend?"
Before Li Dongyang could speak, Tang Xin spoke first.
"I'm not her girlfriend, this guy is just my childhood friend."
"I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Tangxin."
"We grew up together, so I'd rather not be his girlfriend!"
Since they've already denied it, the two of them shouldn't make a fuss anymore.
After hearing what Tangxin said, Cai Cai's eyes lit up.
"My name is Cai Cai, and I am the producer of the company."
Tang Xin smiled and said, "Please take good care of my Dongyang in the future."
"Why didn't you give me a heads-up before you came back?" Li Dongyang asked.
"Didn't they want to give you a surprise?" Tangxin said happily.
After leaving Song Jiaming, Tangxin became much more cheerful.
This is what Li Dongyang wanted to see.
"Hey handsome guys, we have to go now. Let's have dinner together next time!"
Sugar Heart has a very cheerful and likable personality.
She waved to the two of them and then pulled Li Dongyang into her Audi.
The light in Cai Cai's eyes vanished as she watched the two leave.
“Brother Hengsheng, I never believed in what love at first sight felt like before, but now I understand.”
"My heart is pounding so fast!" Cai Cai covered her chest with her hand.
Qu Hengsheng glanced at Cai Cai and followed his gaze toward the car, a mysterious smile appearing on his face.
He teased, "You've taken a liking to her?"
Cai Cai looked a little disappointed and raised her hand to gesture in the air, roughly indicating Tang Xin's height and her own height.
"With this disparity, do you think she'd even be interested in me?"
Qu Hengsheng seemed thoughtful, saying, "Height is not a distance, and age is not a problem."
"When you lie down on the bed at night, you still have to align both ends with the middle."
"I'll ask Dongyang about it for you sometime."
