Xiao Fang deliberately put emphasis on "the two of us", and the meaning was very clear. Zhao Liying poked her, but her eyes were always on Wei Yang who was driving.
"What good things are you thinking about?"
Wei Yang glanced at the red light at the intersection and said, "I have something to go out for, so I'll take you two with me."
“Ah~”
Xiao Fang felt quite regretful, and Zhao Liying was also a little disappointed, but she inexplicably felt that something was wrong.
The two of them went out very early, how did Wei Yang happen to run into them? How could it be such a coincidence! Zhao Liying was tangled in her heart, thinking that she was being suspicious, and then she couldn't help but hope that she was not overthinking.
Wei Yang took good care of her in the crew, maybe, possibly, probably, maybe he had some feelings for her...
Zhao Liying couldn't help but feel excited, but she didn't dare to test it out.
When facing Wei Yang, she always felt a little inferior.
Compared with Lou Yixiao or other girls in the crew who have feelings for Wei Yang, Zhao Liying has some advantages but also many disadvantages.
For example, they come from a rural family, have a secondary school education, have a small role, and have an uncertain future...
So Zhao Liying was very afraid that if she misunderstood, embarrassment would be a small matter, but if she scared Wei Yang away, then she would really have no chance at all.
In this way, Zhao Liying was worried and anxious all the way until Wei Yang dropped them off near the Oriental Pearl Tower.
Seeing Wei Yang preparing to drive away, Zhao Liying became anxious and blurted out, "Brother Yang, can you pick us up after we're done?"
After saying this, Zhao Liying regretted it in her heart.
Just now in the car, she had been trying to find an opportunity to test how much weight she held in Wei Yang's heart.
Letting Wei Yang pick them up was one of the strategies, but she later killed him for fear that Wei Yang would think she was taking advantage of him. But when she saw Wei Yang was about to leave, she got excited and blurted out what was in her heart.
"this……"
Wei Yang glanced at her and said hesitantly, "The main thing is that I don't know how long it will take. It may be earlier or later. Can you wait?"
"No problem, I'll wait for you no matter how long it takes."
When Zhao Liying heard Wei Yang's agreement, she threw all her thoughts aside and expressed her firm opinion with a blushing face.
"Okay, wait for the call then."
Wei Yang nodded, waved his hand, and drove away. Zhao Liying kept looking in the direction he left until Xiao Fang put his hand in front of her and she came back to her senses.
Xiao Fang joked, "Don't look at it anymore. If you keep looking, your soul will float away."
Zhao Liying was a little embarrassed, Xiao Fang put his arm around her and said, "Come on, I'll take you to the mall and buy you some nice clothes. You'll fascinate your brother Yang."
"Don't talk nonsense, Brother Yang and I are friends."
Zhao Liying refuted, but she followed Xiao Fang obediently...
…
On the other side, Wei Yang, who was driving, recalled Zhao Liying's expression just now and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
He was not a novice, and he could easily see what the little girl was thinking.
How to say it, even Wei Yang himself doesn't believe that he has no idea about Zhao Liying, the big star of later generations.
But it is not to say that he likes Zhao Liying very much. In fact, the star filter he had for Zhao Liying in her previous life is even stronger than the good impression he has developed from his contact with her during this period of time.
Although Wei Yang's care for Zhao Liying during this period was partly due to his personality, it was also based on a utilitarian investment mentality.
The connections you make and the favors you sell when you are obscure are much more solid and valuable than those you make after you become famous.
This is true for Lou Yixiao, Zhao Ji, and Yang Rong. Perhaps only Li Jiahang has gone through more than half a year of trials and is now barely considered one of Wei Yang's true friends.
Wei Yang is a veteran who has been in the entertainment industry for more than 20 years. When he plucked out a hair, it was empty inside.
Wei Yang's principle in life is to be kind to others, enthusiastic, generous, straightforward and righteous, but he often weighs the pros and cons and strikes a balance.
Only with someone who is truly close to him can Wei Yang let down his guard, vigilance and calculations and show his truest self.
For Yu Weiyang, he now values career and making money more, and his love life is not that important.
Of course, human beings are not plants or trees, and who can be heartless? If Wei Yang really wants to go astray, he is not Liu Xiahui, but he just needs to remember the "Three Don'ts".
Not taking the initiative, not refusing, does not necessarily mean taking responsibility! The last one is only for good girls. Scumbags are scumbags, try not to hurt them. As for scumbag girls, don’t worry about it…
…
After about half an hour, Wei Yang arrived at his destination, parked the car, went upstairs, and quickly found the place.
Magic City Tangren Film and Television Production Company!
Compared to the fledgling Blue Whale, Tangren is extremely famous in the industry.
Its "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" series are still relatively well-known hit dramas in the industry.
Not only did it produce the popular young actor Hu Ge, but young actors such as Liu Tianxian, Yuan Hong, Ariel Lin, and Ady An also benefited greatly from Tangren dramas.
Currently, Tangren is preparing for a big move, which is to launch the sequel to the company's masterpiece "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3".
When this news came out, many young actors were interested and many of them sent in their resumes.
And he is very lucky that the deputy director of "The Best of Us" Fu Mao is from Tangren and has previously served as the assistant director of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" Li Guoli.
So Wei Yang invited Fu Mao to dinner, asked his brother to pass on a message, and got an interview opportunity.
What surprised Wei Yang was that the person who interviewed him was not director Li Guoli, but Tangren’s boss Cai Yinong.
Wei Yang was no stranger to this well-known female boss and producer in the entertainment industry.
She single-handedly created Tangren, a star-making factory, and produced nearly dozens of first-line stars. Even though Tangren later declined, she still remains a legend in the mainland entertainment industry.
"Hello, Mr. Cai. My name is Wei Yang. I'm a freshman at the Shanghai Theatre Academy. Here's my resume."
Cai Yinong flipped through the information in his hand, and from time to time he looked at Wei Yang's image and temperament, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.
Perhaps it was because they were both from Shanghai, or perhaps it was because he had personally discovered Hu Ge, the top actor in Tangren, at the Shanghai Theatre Academy.
Cai Yinong likes to use people from Shanghai Theatre Academy. In any Tangren drama, you can find a few students from Shanghai Theatre Academy.

Wei Yang's appearance and school background are a perfect match for Cai Yinong, and she hardly hides her admiration for Wei Yang.
"What role do you want to play?"
"Xu Changqing or Demon Lord."
Wei Yang actually wanted to play the male lead Jingtian, but he knew it was difficult, and Tangren wanted to find a popular young actor to play the role.
Not to mention Hu Ge who was standing in the way, it was said that the director and Cai Yinong had always wanted to invite Zhou Yumin and Lin Chih-ying, who were both very popular in Taiwan. It would be too difficult for him, a newcomer, to directly play the male lead.
Even the second male lead Xu Changqing Wei Yang does not have high expectations. On the contrary, Demon Lord Chonglou has a greater chance of rising to the top, considering that the original actor is not very famous.
"Xu Changqing, Chonglou..."
Cai Yinong stared at Wei Yang without making any comment and instead asked another question.
"I see there doesn't seem to be an agency on your resume. Are you interested in joining Tangren?"
Wei Yang was not surprised at all, he just asked: "If I join Tangren, will you give me a role?"
"Of course I will give it to you, and I think you are very suitable for the male protagonist Jingtian. As you know, we Tang people have always been good at training newcomers."
They are also very good at exploiting newcomers!
However, Wei Yang also knew that this statement was actually biased. There was no company in the entertainment industry that did not exploit and oppress artistes. People who set up companies definitely had to make money, and after making someone famous with great difficulty, they had to make a good profit.
In comparison, although Tangren had many flaws, it also did well in some areas, especially its treatment of Hu Ge who was in a car accident, which was very affectionate and righteous.
However, from the fact that many Tangren artists in later generations terminated their contracts and left or filed lawsuits to change jobs when their contracts expired, it can also be seen that Tangren’s treatment and prospects were not optimistic.
At least for Wei Yang, he has his own ambitions and is unwilling to be tied to the Tang people.
As for the character of Jingtian, this kind of big talk is just for listening. Even if Cai Yinong keeps his promise, don't forget that Tangren still has Hu Ge.
The Tang people's plate was this big. Hu Ge took the lion's share, and Yuan Hong and a few others shared it. How much was left for Wei Yang?
However, out of respect, Wei Yang still asked for the contract template. He wanted to see Tangren's conditions. Whether to sell it or not was another matter, but at least he had to know his worth.
Eight-year contract!
Divide into 20:80!
All matters such as taking acting roles, endorsements, announcements and even love affairs must be arranged by the company and cannot be decided on one's own.
If you violate the contract or fail to comply with the company's requirements, you must pay liquidated damages. The amount varies depending on the specific terms and can be as high as 15 million.
“…”
To be honest, this contract is a bit harsh, but in the entertainment industry, newcomers never have the right to bargain.
But you can choose not to sign!
It was obviously impossible for Wei Yang to exchange 80% of his income and freedom in the next eight years for a role, so he simply returned the contract to Cai Yinong.
"Thank you Mr. Cai for your kindness, but I am still a student and have no intention of signing with an agency for the time being."
Cai Yinong didn't want to miss out on such a good opportunity, so she took the initiative to save the relationship: "If there are any terms that you are not satisfied with, we can discuss it again. You should become famous as early as possible, and going to school should not be an obstacle."
Wei Yang still declined politely. Cai Yinong was a little disappointed, but still didn't say anything final.
"Don't rush to decide. Think about it when you get back. I'll wait for your reply."
As for the role in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", Wei Yang did not sign the contract and Cai Yinong did not mention it at all.
Seeing this situation, Wei Yang knew that this interview was most likely a failure.
Although he was a little disappointed, it was a rare opportunity to meet Cai Yinong, so Wei Yang did not waste the opportunity. He took out a few documents from his backpack and handed them to the confused Cai Yinong.
"Mr. Cai, I forgot to introduce myself just now. In addition to being an actor, I am also a screenwriter. This is the script I wrote. You may want to take a look and see if you like it."
I didn't get the role, but it would be nice if I could sell a script. The gas alone would cost dozens of dollars to drive from Chongming to Xuhui, so I can't make this trip for nothing...
