"Nonsense, your brother Dongyang has been incredibly busy lately, can't you just relax a bit?"
"You don't understand me, I'm hanging up!"
"A word to the wise is too much if you don't see eye to eye."
"I can't be bothered to talk to you."
Zhang Wenbing: "??????"
He knew his daughter's personality well.
Why does mentioning Li Dongyang make me act like I'm about to explode?
Zhang Wenbing found it somewhat inexplicable.
Before she could continue speaking, Zhang Yue had already hung up the phone.
Zhang Wenbing was speechless.
He sighed deeply; the older his daughter got, the less he understood her.
"Dongyang, Yueyue said she'd like to see you this weekend."
Li Dongyang: "Okay."
It is said that Zhang Yue was raised by Li Dongyang. The first time she went to Zhang Wenbing's house, Zhang Yue was only in high school. She was a little shy and looked very naive.
With big eyes and a high nose, he was almost a carbon copy of his teacher's wife, He Qin.
Especially her big, watery eyes.
Before you knew it, you were in college.
Although Zhang Yue has a bit of a temper, she still protects Li Dongyang.
Therefore, Li Dongyang did not dislike this junior sister.
It's actually not a big deal for girls to have a little temper.
Therefore, Li Dongyang didn't mind.
He treats Zhang Yue like his own younger sister.
Therefore, he paid special attention to Zhang Yue's matter.
Anyway, it's the weekend, and I'm free anyway. Besides, it's only two episodes, and revising the script won't take much time.
So Li Dongyang readily agreed.
Friday afternoon arrived in the blink of an eye.
After a week of intense work, everyone was exhausted.
Those with families will choose to go back on Sunday.
Those without families stayed in the hotel and slept soundly.
When Xia Nuan returned to Wancheng this time, she took the initiative to message Li Dongyang to ask if he wanted to go back together.
He's happy that he doesn't have to take a taxi to the station and go back and forth.
I followed Xia Nuan's car back to Wancheng.
I received a call from my teacher on the way.
Zhang Wenbing asked Li Dongyang to go to the company first.
He said Lin Wan needed to speak with him.
Needless to say, it was also about the script.
The drama "Li Dongyang" was an internal investment by Chaofan Company with low costs, and initially, no one was optimistic about it.
As soon as it was released, it garnered hundreds of millions of views.
It's perfectly normal for investors to go to great lengths to get their hands on Li Dongyang's script once they see the potential for profit.
"Screenwriter Li, I'll drop you off here."
After spending some time together, Li Jing felt that Li Dongyang was a very talented young man.
They are destined for great success in the future.
They also expressed their admiration for this young man.
As the old saying goes, gold will always shine no matter where it is, right?
Li Jing parked her car downstairs at Chaofan Company, rolled down the window, and said goodbye to Li Dongyang.
Xia Nuan, however, remained unmoved, sitting in the back row.
This woman was sometimes enthusiastic and sometimes indifferent, and Li Dongyang really couldn't understand her.
He still waved to Xia Nuan.
After all, it's a matter of courtesy.
He didn't know if Xia Nuan had seen it through the car window.
After watching the nanny van leave, Li Dongyang picked up his backpack and went upstairs.
Li Dongyang arrived half an hour earlier than Qu Hengsheng and his group, following Li Jing's car.
That evening, Lin Wan invited Zhang Wenbing to dinner.
It's more accurate to say that we invited Li Dongyang to dinner rather than him.
He was just a middleman, acting as a mediator.
"Knock knock!"
There was a knock on Zhang Wenbing's door.
"Come in."
"Dongyang, come and sit down."
Li Dongyang went straight to Zhang Wenbing's office without even putting down his backpack.
"Take this and try it. It's a specialty that your teacher's wife brought back from Guizhou."
"It's pretty good. I asked you to bring me two packs."
Zhang Wenbing smiled kindly, his face crinkling with wrinkles.
"By the way, have you contacted Lin Wan?"
Li Dongyang shook his head. "I've been busy keeping up with the progress lately and haven't been in touch. What's wrong?"
Zhang Wenbing turned around and sat on his desk, saying to Li Dongyang, "Lin Wan is coming over later. If I'm not mistaken, she'll probably be here to discuss the script with you."
"Shangcheng is a big company with abundant resources. If you can collaborate with them to write TV series and gain some experience, you should be able to go directly from a first-level screenwriter to a second-level screenwriter. The commission at that time will be much higher than what you are now."
Zhang Wenbing's purpose in saying this was not to force Li Dongyang to accept the script for "Extraordinary".
Instead, he was told that the screenwriter's level directly affected his earnings.
As for whether or not to cooperate with Lin Wan, Zhang Wenbing said he would consult Li Dongyang.
If it were any other screenwriter, he would have signed them immediately.
Li Dongyang sat on the sofa in silence for a while.
If he remembered correctly, Xia Nuan was an artist under the Shangcheng branch.
The branch manager is named Su Yipeng.
He is said to be Lin Wan's fiancé.
Rumors circulated that the two had a strained relationship and frequently argued.
Of course, this is their family matter.
Li Dongyang knew the truth behind Xia Nuan's hiatus from acting: she simply didn't want to be subjected to unspoken rules and offend Su Yipeng.
After sitting for a while, Li Dongyang's eyes immediately lit up.
An idea popped into my head.
He asked, "What time did Mr. Lin invite you to dinner?"
Zhang Wenbing glanced at the time on his phone. "6 p.m., one and a half hours left."
Li Dongyang stood up. "Teacher, I'll go back and take a shower first. I just came back from Hengdian and I'm covered in sweat."
Zhang Wenbing grabbed the car keys from the desk and tossed them to Li Dongyang, saying, "After this short drama is finished, remember to buy a car with your prize money. You know how easy it is to get heatstroke driving around outside in the summer?"
"Here, take this bottle of water. I just bought it. Your lips have been peeling since I last saw you."
