At the school gate, shooting scene Yang Rong, with her short hair, looked at Wei Yang waving at her with a smile, a little reluctant.
"Geng Geng, goodbye. I will miss you. I will miss you very, very, very much...etc."
Before he finished speaking, Wei Yang stopped talking and looked at the monitor: "Director, isn't this word a bit awkward?"
Liu Junjie picked up the speaker and said, "It's pretty good. I think it fits the role."
"Yeah?"
Wei Yang looked at Yang Rong, who smiled and nodded: "I also think this is what Lu Xinghe would say, maybe a little childish, but that's part of his charm."
Although he is the screenwriter of "The Best of Us", Wei Yang is not a god, and it is impossible for him to copy the original script word for word.
Therefore, the plot structure of his script is roughly the same as the original play, and many details are written by him.
This can easily lead to some conflicts.
Wei Yang has a mature and stable personality and is well-versed in human relations, so he often doesn't understand the words and deeds of middle school boys and young girls. Many times, he needs the cooperation of the director and actors to create together.
"Well, let's do it again."
Wei Yang shot it again. Although he felt the lines were a bit embarrassing, the final product was still flawless.
The first lesson of being an actor is to liberate your nature. If you are embarrassed to film anything, then you don’t need to be an actor…
After taking a short break after filming this scene, Wei Yang was flipping through the script. Yang Rong moved a stool and sat next to her, blinking her big eyes.
"Why."
"What's wrong?"
"Wei Yang, are you allergic to romance? That scene just now was so wonderful. Lu Xinghe said goodbye to Geng Geng reluctantly. I was moved. How could you feel embarrassed?"
“The scenario was fine, but the lines were too plain. My original script was to say nothing, just turn my back and leave, waving goodbye.
Later, I felt that Lu Xinghe particularly liked Geng Geng and he missed her, so he slowly backed away from her, but his lines only had one line, "I will miss you", and the last line "I miss you very much" was added by Director Liu.
Wei Yang explained and Yang Rong nodded, with some agreement and some disagreement.
"Your previous approach was also good, more subtle, but it was more of an idol drama, and it was aimed at a student-based audience. Director Liu's approach was more direct."
Yang Rong used herself as an example: "If it were now, I would like your previous arrangement, but if I were a teenage girl, I would envy the desperate and unconcealed passionate confession at the end."
“You still have to learn.”
Wei Yang learned that Liu Junjie is indeed a famous director of idol dramas. Although he would also consider issues from the audience's perspective, he was still not as accurate in grasping these idol elements as others.
"You should take a break. You can be a screenwriter and producer at your age. Why do you need to study? Leave us a way out."
Yang Rong had a bitter face and couldn't help but complain.
She was deeply impressed by Wei Yang. Putting aside his handsomeness, she had never seen such a young screenwriter and producer.
Not only is he young, he writes good scripts, does a thorough job as a producer, and has an easy-going personality.
To be honest, if she wasn't several years older than Wei Yang and he wasn't a little too embarrassed to take advantage of her, Wei Yang would have one more person to reply to his text messages.
"Speaking of screenwriters and producers, there is a senior of yours in our class who is similar to you, but he is not as handsome as you and was forced to work behind the scenes."
"I know who you're talking about, the one from The Imperial Harem, very popular on Tianya."
When Wei Yang heard that she was in the same class as Yang Rong, he knew who she was talking about.
A big shot in the small screen circle in the next few years, a producer who is even more powerful than the Tangren Cai Yinong he had met before—
Damn girl, Yu Zheng!
Yu Zheng is his real name. People in the industry once jokingly said that his pen name is the name without the “person”, so he is no longer a “person”.
Wei Yang had actually dealt with him in his previous life, but they were not very familiar with each other, but he had some understanding of him.
There are two most impressive things about this guy. One is plagiarism, and the other is his love of talking nonsense.
His famous work "The Imperial Harem" was widely criticized for having many plots that were highly similar to "Beauty's Rival in Palace". However, Yu Zheng was not convinced and made various excuses, which attracted ridicule from netizens on Tianya, who called him "Yu Chaochao".
However, this incident did not stop Yu Zheng. This year, he served as the screenwriter of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" and "Rouge Snow", and began to venture into the field of producer. His career is booming.
"Well, he's actually a nice guy..."
Yang Rong didn't expect that Wei Yang actually knew Yu Zheng's background, and was a little embarrassed for a moment.
She and Yu Zheng were classmates and had a good relationship, but that didn't mean she could go against her conscience and say that Yu Zheng was right in copying.
Especially when facing the screenwriter Wei Yang, Yang Rong knew that plagiarism was a sore spot for many writers, and Yu Zheng's behavior was highly despised in the industry.
However, what she didn't know was that Wei Yang was also a plagiarist.
From the moment he decided to take a shortcut and copy the script, Wei Yang no longer had the right to look down on that dead girl. Even though everyone thought that his work was original, Wei Yang still had self-knowledge.
Therefore, Wei Yang actually didn't mind getting to know Yu Zheng. His character wasn't discussed, and he didn't plan to become a close friend with him.

But Yu Zheng has his value, and his subsequent production capabilities and channel resources are very sufficient.
If the opportunity is right, Wei Yang feels that they can still cooperate. Even if he does not film the other party's drama, they can still exchange resources.
In the entertainment industry, you can’t survive if you’re too morally obsessed. If it’s not a matter of principle or bottom line, most people choose to turn a blind eye…
"When we meet again, Sister Rong, please call me when you are free. After all, I am your senior, and I would like to ask for your advice."
"...You don't need to learn all the experience. You are still young. You should follow the right path."
Yang Rong specifically explained that although Wei Yang was mature and experienced, he looked harmless at his age and appearance. Yang Rong was afraid that the child might learn bad habits from him.
"Don't worry, I still have you."
Wei Yang praised him, and seeing that it was almost time, he stood up and prepared to film.
"That's right, follow me and I'll make sure you don't suffer any loss."
Yang Rong was very satisfied and stood up as well, preparing to pat him on the shoulder to express her condolences, but she turned out to be too short and could only reach his hand by standing on tiptoe, which made her very angry.
"No wonder Geng Geng chose Yu Huai in the end. Your Lu Xinghe is too high up. You have to look up when you speak."
"Brother Peng is not much shorter than me. Besides, I don't think you are too short. It will be inconvenient for us to shoot kissing scenes later."
"Was there a kissing scene? Didn't they not kiss in the end?"
Yang Rong was puzzled, and Wei Yang smiled: "You forgot that I am the screenwriter. I think Lu Xinghe is at a disadvantage. At least give him a kiss before leaving."
"You are using public power for personal gain."
"Is this called being selfish? If it's true, I'll add a sex scene, at least three minutes long, it will definitely be impactful."
Yang Rong raised his eyebrows and took the initiative to challenge: "Add me, I will accompany you to the end. If you don't add me, I will look down on you."
"Hey, don't provoke me. I'm going to go find Director Liu right now."
Wei Yang looked at Yang Rong who was provoking him, then turned to look for Liu Junjie. Half a minute later, he was met with a frustrated look on his face.
Yang Rong gloated: "What did Director Liu say?"
"He asked me why I didn't just let Yu Huai and Lu Xinghe do the sex scene, which would have been more impactful."
"Hahaha."
Yang Rong was laughing so hard that she couldn't catch her breath, but Wei Yang was praising her. After all, he was a famous director who had seen the future of Danmei so many years ago...
