Shen Bei'an tossed his hair, walked out wearing a mountain-blue bathrobe, and lazily yawned, "Yan Yan, go take a shower."
They originally planned to shower together, but Shen Beian thought that he couldn't go too far with his wife right now, and was afraid he wouldn't be able to resist, so they showered separately.
Gu Nanyan handed the message he had just received to Shen Beian, "Washe has acquired the copyright to 'The Man on the Verge of Death' and is about to start casting for the live-action version."
This is information about the person in charge of Washe, a subsidiary of the Gu Group.
Knowing that their boss's lover was a fan of "The Man on the Verge of Death," the person in charge immediately messaged their boss after acquiring the copyright.
After all, in the Gu Group, pleasing the head of the household is much easier than pleasing the boss.
"!!" Shen Beian was greatly surprised. "Are they really going to have a live-action performance?"
Although the actors in Empire are all quite good at acting and there are many novel IPs, every time an IP is adapted, no matter how well the acting or the adaptation is done, there are always people who are dissatisfied.
Especially book fans.
After all, the original book is the first source material.
The scenes and characters described in the book are often things that cannot be represented in the real world.
However, for the original author, it is actually a good thing that their book can be published and adapted.
"Yes, the casting announcement has already been released." Gu Nanyan didn't seem to care much about these things. She rarely read these kinds of books; she usually reads ancient texts or foreign classics.
Moreover, this is a win-win situation for both the studio and the author.
Moreover, many people online support the live-action version.
Everything published by Washe is a masterpiece.
Even a small production, if published by Washa, will never disappoint.
So after Washe released the news, although there were some criticisms online, they were relatively few.
Shen Beian's shoulders slumped, and she pouted, "Yeah, that's true." She rolled her eyes, not at Gu Nanyan, but at all the capitalists represented by Gu Nanyan. "Of course you capitalists don't know us. Your white moonlight is going to be made into a real person, and I don't even know if the person who comes up when I search for Ye Xun is the actor or my Ye Shen."
Gu Nanyan raised his hand and gently rubbed Shen Bei'an's head, his voice softening, "An'an, a vivid and relatable character and an actor complement each other perfectly. Just like many people have played Emperor Taizong of Tang, but no one has ever associated Emperor Taizong with any particular actor. It's the same with characters."
“They have their own world, they only come into our world through actors, and after watching, they will naturally return to their own world. And for us, what we see is also the image they present to us through the actors.”
Although Gu Nanyan doesn't read novels, he knows how much novelists adore their "white moonlight."
But for the author, if it can be published, then it might be a good thing if it can be adapted into a TV series or a movie.
They gained money and increased the visibility of their work.
Although many films were poorly made, selling "The Man on the Verge of Death" to Washa Studio was a good choice overall.
Shen Beian felt there was some truth to it, but he was still very upset. "But what if they take over my Night God?" The thought still bothered him.
Gu Nanyan lowered his head and kissed Shen Bei'an's head. "No, Washa selects actors not only based on acting skills but also on character. Although many actors, idols, and celebrities have had their reputations ruined since Uncle Hua's reforms last year, Washa's productions, whether dramas, movies, plays, stage shows, or variety shows, have never had a single program that has suffered a scandal."
“When the vendors use them, they will carefully check whether they have any illegal or disorderly conduct or morally questionable behavior.”
"The casting will officially begin in a week. If An'an is interested, she can go to the venue to take a look." Gu Nanyan did not say anything about letting Shen Bei'an participate in the casting.
Although Shen Beian is very familiar with the book "The Man on the Verge of Death" and has his own understanding of the characters, this may very well contradict the director's and screenwriter's interpretations.
The quality of a drama depends on many factors, but Gu Nanyan believes that the director and screenwriter must play a leading role.
Shen Beian was still sulking, and his cheeks puffed up as well.
Gu Nanyan reached out and poked him, "Okay, baby, don't be angry. If you don't like watching it, you can focus on the comics and anime. There's no need to deliberately watch the live-action version."
She just thought her husband was really cute.
Her phoenix eyes were full of smiles.
Shen Beian let out a "whoosh" and tried to bite Gu Nanyan's hand, but Gu Nanyan didn't dodge.
Shen Bei'an could only back away, "If you hadn't yet washed up, otherwise... ╭(╯^╰)╮"
That haughty little expression won over the young master's heart.
Realizing she hadn't washed up yet, and that Master Shen was a bit of a germaphobe, Gu Nanyan could only sigh inwardly, "I'll go wash up. An'an, don't forget to blow-dry your hair. I've already set the temperature."
"Okay~" Shen Bei'an went to blow-dry his hair, not forgetting to contact his novel, comic, and anime partner, Ye Lin.
Ye Lin answered almost instantly; it was a holographic image.
Ye Lin seems to be eating grilled fish in a private room.
"What's wrong, Beibei? Shouldn't you be getting ready for bed at this hour?" Ye Lin glanced at the time; it was almost 8:30.
Shen Bei'an was wiping her face and applying skincare products when she said, "I can't sleep, I can't sleep at all!!" sounding somewhat distraught.
Ye Lin waved his hand, refusing the grilled fish that Lu Ming offered, and gestured for Lu Ming to leave first.
Lu Ming: Great, I knew I was the undisputed "emperor" in my wife's heart.
He quietly went out and closed the door.
