Wei Yang looked at the LCD screen in the room in surprise like an old-fashioned guy. Fat Fan pushed him aside and casually replied to a WeChat message on the computer.

"What is this?"

"Text messages, um, emails, just like your Hanxian pagers, instant messaging."

Fan Xiaopang explained it to Wei Yang, who didn't quite understand it, but felt it was impressive and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's developing really fast. It's only been less than 20 years."

As they were talking, Fat Fan was seen reminiscing about the tapes of that year, then he took out his mobile phone to play a song. The Bluetooth speaker in the room started to sound, and the male protagonist from 1994 was taught another lesson.

Wei Yang was startled, and then he carefully touched the Bluetooth speaker, accidentally knocking his phone off, causing the playback to pause.

He hurried to get his phone, but he didn't know how to use it, and in panic, he pressed the smart voice assistant.

"Who is this?"

Fatty Fan applied the mask seriously: "My assistant."

"You have an assistant?"

Wei Yang didn't believe it. Although they had only known each other for a short time, he could see that the heroine didn't have much money, so how could she have an assistant?

"Here, you can find an assistant even if you don't have money."

"Bragging, why don't you ask him to deliver a meal and see."

Fan Xiaopang took the phone, opened the app, and the camera gave a close-up - Meituan Takeout.

In the next scene, Xu Zheng came to the door wearing Meituan’s yellow rider uniform and carrying a backpack. In Wei Yang’s confused eyes, he helped set the table of dishes with a bright smile on his face.

"Meituan takeaway, wish you a pleasant meal."

“…”

After this scene was filmed and approved by the director, the afternoon scene was finished and it was time for dinner.

Looking at the several dishes on the table, Boss Wei simply asked everyone to start eating.

Since there are eating segments, these are dishes ordered from outside by the crew. Each one is fresh and the actors can eat them. Now that the filming is finished, there is no need for these dishes and it would be a waste if they are not eaten.

"Come on, Senior Brother, have some seafood porridge. You won't be able to drink something so clean in the future."

"It's all the fault of the Japanese."

The two people were cursing at each other. Fat Fan seldom had carbs at night, but when he heard what was said he also filled half a bowl and started to complain as well.

The Japanese devils are so cruel that the salt that their family stored two years ago has not been eaten up yet.

Wei Yang divided the food among the others and ordered two box lunches, which the three of them shared. He mainly talked with Xu Zheng about the new movie.

After "Lost in Thailand", Xu Zheng became a hot commodity in the industry and received various film offers. However, Xu Zheng did not rush to direct new dramas, but continued to work on scripts while taking on other dramas.

The two most noteworthy dramas are the literary crime film "Hypnotist" and "Lost in Thailand" directed by Ning Hao.

This movie is a road comedy prepared by Ning Hao. He not only brought in Xu Zheng, but also his old partner Huang Bo. Combined with the previous "No Man's Land", he is preparing to create a so-called iron triangle.

The film is looking very good and the industry is very optimistic about it.

China Film Group and Pony Ma joined forces, and the Sixth Princess also got involved. Boss Wei became the fourth largest producer through his relationship with Ning and Xu.

In return, Blue Whale also took out a portion of its share for the new movie Xu Zheng is currently preparing, tentatively titled "Lost in Hong Kong", giving a piece of the pie to several companies.

When Wei Yang and Xu Zheng were chatting, Fat Fan was listening very attentively beside them.

After finishing the meal, Xu Zheng left first.

He only had two cameo scenes in total, one in the main film, which was just finished, and one as an easter egg, which will be finished tomorrow when he comes to make up for it. There's no need to stay here with us, so he left first.

After Xu Zheng left, Fan Xiaopang became noticeably more active. She and Xu were actually quite familiar with each other, but there were many things in her heart that she couldn't ask Xu in person.

When there were only two of them left, Fan Xian attentively poured water and handed tissues to Boss Wei. Wei Yang knew what she wanted to do at a glance.

"Fart if you want to."

"Hey, is there a suitable role for me in Xu Zheng's new movie or "Lost in Thailand"?"

Both of these movies are in good shape. One is a new movie directed by a genius, and the other is a new work by a "billion-dollar director". They will definitely attract much attention in the industry.

Although Fan Xiaopang has some friendship with Xu Zheng and had done him a favor in "Lost in Thailand" before, this favor may not be enough for her to get an important role in his new work.

But it’s hard to say when Wei Yang is included.

Boss Wei is the fourth producer of "Lost in Thailand", and his words are quite influential.

Not to mention "Lost in Hong Kong". After Boss Wei dealt with the previous copyright controversy, the copyright of the "Lost" series is completely in his hands. Xu Zheng has no way to deal with this project unless Boss Wei gives the word.

Wei Yang is not the copyright company of "Lost on Journey". It is a small business and cannot control Xu Zheng. In the end, it can only pay the money.

As a big shot in the Shanghai circle, if Xu Zheng dares to trick him, Wei Yang can skin him alive. If no one protects him, he may be banned directly.

This is not an exaggeration. After all, "Lost on Journey" is only worth tens of millions. Even if the original company wants to find fault, there is a group of vested interests who help suppress it.

"Lost in Thailand" earned over 1 billion yuan, and the sequel is worth at least several hundred million yuan, maybe even more.

Whoever touches this plate will be digging up the roots of Blue Whale. No matter how ruthless Wei Yang is, it is understandable. With the support of Shanghai Circle and Shanghai Film Group, if Boss Wei really gets angry, China Film Group will have a headache.

Of course, if the dispute really broke out, Xu Zheng would not be able to touch this project, but without Xu, the copyright would be mostly lost if it remained in Wei Yang's hands.

There is no need for both parties to be so extreme. If they cooperate to make money, it will only mean that Wei Yang gets a bigger share, Xu Zheng will have his fill, and they will just honestly make money for Boss Wei.

In this case, Xu Zheng's opinion of "Lost in Hong Kong" is very important, but the key still needs Boss Wei's approval.

Wei Yang had thought about these two movies before.

The female lead in "Lost in Thailand" is not very suitable. To be honest, only Yuan Quan can play the role of a pretentious literary youth.

Fan Xiaopang is too handsome, and the other artists from Blue Whale and Coral Entertainment are not good enough.

Besides, Ning Hao and Xiao Ma Pentium may not listen to him, so the female lead has no chance. However, Wei Yang can squeeze in a few supporting roles along the way depending on the situation.

He can have full control over "Lost in Hong Kong" if the plot is pretty close to the original.

Wei Yang doesn't plan to ask Zhao to play the role of the heroine, but it's not very suitable for Fan Xiaopang either. Instead, he can let Fan give the role of the first love goddess a try.

The selling points of the original version were Xu and Zhao. Now Zhao has become Fan, but the selling points are still there. As for the female lead, find a suitable one if you can. If not, let Xiao Taohong take over.

Couples are also a topic, and the most important thing is that they are cheap!

However, Wei Yang did not tell the truth. He just said that he would think about it and wait until the script came out.

Fan Xiaopang was not in a hurry either. She had no shortage of film contracts. What she lacked were high-quality scripts and memorable roles. She had concerns before, but now she was much more relaxed. She just had to hold on to Wei Yang.

Even if "Lost in Hong Kong" doesn't work out, there are other dramas. With Boss Wei as the boss, there's no need to worry about not having a role.

"Here, I still have some shrimps. Can I buy you two?"

"How can that be possible?"

Wei Yang looked at her warily, afraid that she would make him "swallow his saliva", which was something this woman had done before.

…

After a while, we started filming again in the evening.

As mentioned before, the most criticized thing about the movie "Time Traveler" is that there are too many night scenes, and many of them require night scenes and cannot be artificially simulated.

So many times, the crew has to shoot night scenes. If they are lucky, they can finish work at midnight. If they are unlucky, they may have to stay up all night.

Especially now that we are more than halfway through the shoot and the night scenes are concentrated, we haven’t finished work before 2 a.m. in the past few days and we have to start work in the afternoon the next day.

However, today's shooting went smoothly, and there were no mistakes in any aspect. The shooting plan was completed around 11 o'clock.

Wei Yang stretched and didn't even bother to remove his makeup. He just changed his clothes and prepared to leave. Fat Fan did the same. Without noticing, he ran to Wei Yang's car.

Read the original text at Liu#9@书/吧!

"Hurry up, go home early so I can soak my feet and watch The Legend of Lu Zhen."

"You really have come to live your life, haven't you?"

Wei Yang couldn't help but complain that since the crew started filming, Fat Fan rarely stayed in a hotel and stayed at Tomson Yipin every day. Now he was more familiar with the house than he was.

"Drive, drive."

Fan Xiaopang kept urging him, and Wei Yang had no choice but to start the car. On the way, he was thinking about whether he should change his base for another house, otherwise what if Fan Xiaopang and Tang Yan ran into each other one day.

Wei Yang had dreamed of a threesome, but he thought the chances of a fight were higher.

Especially Fan Xiaopang, who now seems to be trying to monopolize the place. He knows that if Tang Yan comes to take it away, he will either set the house on fire or set Tang Yan on fire.

Back at Tomson Yipin, he was lying on the sofa and being lazy, but Fat Fan couldn't sit still.

She found a fruit plate and got two electric massage foot bath tubs. Finally, she held her laptop and watched "Legend of Lu Zhen" while soaking her feet.

“Is this drama really that good?”

Wei Yang was a little unhappy that Fan Xiaopang was so enthusiastic about his old rival Si Yatou's drama, even though the female lead was his friend Yang Rong.

That's right, because Xiao Zhao is an artist of Blue Whale, it is naturally impossible for her to shoot "Legend of Lu Zhen". I heard that the dead girl was in a dilemma between Yang Rong and Yuan Shanshan for a long time, and finally chose Yang Rong, the eternal second.

Wei Yang also helped Yang Rong invisibly. You know, in the original version of "Legend of Lu Zhen", Yang Rong was the vicious second female lead.

Speaking of which, Yang Rong is quite famous, but she is not very popular and doesn't like to show up in public. She has been with that girl for several years, but she has never become very popular.

This time, "Legend of Lu Zhen" has made its debut. Although the historical aspects are a mess, the drama is still a hit.

Right now the ratings are about to break 2, not only making Yang Rong popular again, but also making the male lead Chen Yao popular. The dead girl also got rid of the slump due to the setback of "Palace 2" and started to show off again.

However, he didn't get to show off for long as he was beaten up.

Wei Yang thought of the recent news and a smile appeared on his face.

The dead girl is considered a well-known producer in the industry, and can even be called a big shot on the small screen, second only to Wei Yang and Blue Whale. Unexpectedly, she was beaten, and it was even filmed.

The man who beat the person was an actor, not very famous, with the surname Shen. According to the explanation of the dead girl and Shen, it seemed that he was an actor under the dead girl and slept with Shen's girlfriend.

It is not clear whether it was an affair or a semi-forced one, but it is said that the woman even attempted suicide.

Because she was in the wrong, and most importantly, the girl didn't want to make a big fuss for fear of affecting her own artists, so she agreed to give her a role.

But later, the role was not given to her, so the dead girl asked the other party to explain. Shen felt that he did not keep his promise, so he poured a cup of coffee on the dead girl and beat her up.

However, many people have questioned that this rumor may be problematic.

Because if it really involves your girlfriend, especially if it is coercive, then there is no need to beat the girl to death, but instead beat the real perpetrator.

Later, Shen even refused to apologize, so he was administratively detained for several days. His Weibo and subsequent interviews were also very tough, and his words and deeds were extremely disgusting to the dead girl.

This cannot be simply explained away by saying that you don't want to hurt the girl again. The nature of the coercion + forced suicide can directly send the dead girl or the culprit to jail.

Moreover, this act of secretly being beaten seemed too much like it was planned. It was impossible for that dead girl to record herself getting beaten, so it was very likely that Shen directed and acted it himself.

Since you can arrange for secret filming, you can also secretly record the person and find some evidence to use to punish him.

In the end, such a big thing started well but ended badly. It didn't seem like Shen was seeking justice for his girlfriend, but rather wanted to vent his anger.

Therefore, Tianya has always had another speculation, that is, there is no so-called girlfriend at all, but the dead girl slept with Shen, and then did not keep her word, so Shen got anxious and beat the dead girl up.

The issue of rainbow is too sensitive in the circle, and no one can talk about it openly.

So the dead girl said that she was his girlfriend, which was a subtle way of praising the other party. Shen did not deny it, which just meant that the dead girl was disgusting.

It’s hard to say whether Wei Yang’s statement is true or false, but the latter’s logic is more normal.

Many things in the entertainment industry are dirty, but when human lives are involved it is no small matter.

Even if the dead girl was lucky or managed to escape without any evidence, she would probably have to keep quiet for a while. But in her previous life, the dead girl never avoided the limelight, and she later gave a convincing explanation.

This attitude doesn't look like someone who has caused a death, but more like a shameless person who refuses to admit his mistake.

However, no matter what the reason was, it must be a pleasant thing for Wei Yang to see the dead girl being beaten.

The screenshot of the dead girl holding her head and getting beaten was even used as an emoticon by Wei Yang. He especially liked to use it when chatting with acquaintances from both sides, such as Da Mimi and Yang Rong.

Fat Fan didn't care about the dead girl being beaten. She watched "Legend of Lu Zhen" more to learn from the successful experience.

The drama "Legend of Lu Zhen" is a complete mess from a historical perspective.

The lunatics of the Gao family of the Northern Qi Dynasty were all whitewashed into benevolent kings and holy rulers, while the historical Lu Zhen, also known as Lu Lingxuan, was a wet nurse who came to power, brought disaster to the country and the people, manipulated power, and had a very bad reputation in history. She was roughly equivalent to the Northern Qi Dynasty's wet nurse version of Empress Dowager Cixi, but was eventually filmed as the female version of Zhang Juzheng.

But even though the history is bad, this kind of Mary Sue heroine-led plot is indeed popular with the audience.

"The Empress of China" follows a similar path. At most, the history is relatively more sophisticated and there are not too many outrageous adaptations, but it is ultimately a Mary Sue heroine-led drama.

Fan Xiaopang is smart. She has no experience with this kind of drama, so she can imitate and learn from "The Legend of Lu Zhen" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

What can Wei Yang say? Actually, at the beginning, he wanted to take a historical route for the script of "The Legend of Wu Mei Niang".

It was filmed in a more serious style, similar to a serious drama, in which Fan Xiaopang overcomes all obstacles and survives many dangers to become the Empress Wu Zetian.

Later I felt that this kind of drama had existed before, and it would be repetitive if it was filmed again, and there was nothing new. The key was that the ratings might not be popular.

The quality of "The Rise of the Great Qin Empire" is so excellent that its ratings and popularity are even higher than "The Legend of Lu Zhen".

Bingyang Company is in business to make money. Mary Sue plots are easy to shoot, more likely to be popular, and have high market bids. Why should Fan Xiaopang go through the trouble of making an unpopular drama?

Wei Yang is not the type of person who likes to think about things. A Mary Sue is still a masterpiece. Don’t discriminate against the subject matter…
