Chapter 9 The Big Celebrity on Campus



Lou Yixiao and Cai Die came out of the audition meeting room in a daze. They looked at each other, with shock and confusion still in their eyes.

What's going on with Wei Yang/Brother Yang!?

Before, Wei Yang reminded the two to give up the role of the second female lead Jiang Niannian, and they all listened, but they thought that Wei Yang was able to get a special audition and had connections in the crew, so he knew some inside information.

Who would have thought that Wei Yang was a member of the crew and seemed to have a high status.

"Call Li Jiahang and the others. They will definitely know."

Cai Die couldn't help but be curious about how Wei Yang became a senior member of the crew.

Could it be that this guy is a low-key rich second-generation, his family is a big boss, and he pretends to be an ordinary person to experience life like in a TV series, and now Young Master Wei is tired of playing around and plans to show his cards and enter the entertainment industry? If she can't figure this out, she won't be able to sleep well tonight...

Lou Yixiao was equally curious, so she took out her Motorola cell phone and called Li Jiahang.

They all came for the interview at the same time and didn't walk far. Half an hour later, they met at a KFC. The crowd also included Li Jinming, Zhao Ji, and Wang Xiaochen, Du Jiang, Wang Chuanjun, Hai Lu and others who were also participating in the interview.

As for Chen Chichi, when he learned that Zheng Kai returned to school alone in a rage, he was afraid that something might have happened, so he had to go back to check.

It's really bad luck to have such a "good brother"! "So, Wei Yang is the screenwriter of this crew. He is valued by the producer and director and has participated in the crew's preparation. In the future, he will write and perform his own work and play the second male lead."

Cai Die summarized the information revealed by Li Jiahang and the other two, and fell into a long silence.

To be honest, if Wei Yang is really a rich second-generation and he formed his own crew, people might follow him, but they may not be convinced in their hearts.

Everyone can spend money to make a movie, even if their father is rich.

But writing a script that is bought by a film and television company, having them trust you and letting you play an important role, this is not something that ordinary people can do.

Everyone felt complicated when they thought that Wei Yang, who was the same age as them or even younger, had already started making money and had a certain status, while most of them were still being supported by their parents with an uncertain future.

Of course, there are also people who are simply proud of Wei Yang, such as his good brother Li Jiahang, and Lou Yixiao who is interested in Wei Yang.

After listening to what Li Jiahang and the other two had to say, Lou Yixiao could hardly contain her admiration for Wei Yang and she turned into a little fangirl with starry eyes.

In just over ten minutes, everyone heard her say "Brother Yang is so awesome" at least six or seven times.

"Now Wei Yang will be more popular in our school."

Du Jiang said sourly that he and Wei Yang were not familiar with each other, and even before today, the two had never met each other.

But he had heard of Wei Yang's name.

The most handsome freshman of the class of 2006, the next school idol of Shanghai Theatre Academy, the young hunk in the eyes of many senior schoolmates...

But no one took him seriously. There were always a few handsome guys at the Shanghai Theatre Academy every year, but being handsome couldn't make a living.

Freshman and sophomore years are fine, as they are relatively simpler and don’t involve so many considerations. But starting from junior year, seniors who have begun to come into contact with some things in society and the entertainment industry begin to look at things more realistically.

Wei Yang, who only has a face and comes from an ordinary family, is not worthy of much attention in the eyes of many people.

But now it’s different. Wei Yang has shown some potential. Although he has just emerged, he has already surpassed many boys in the school.

What’s more important is that he is handsome. Being handsome alone may not impress people, but being handsome + having a promising future is not as simple as 1+1.

When Du Jiang said this, some of the girls present had flickering eyes. Lou Yixiao, who was originally laughing foolishly, suddenly tensed up and glanced at the girls vigilantly.

After two days of auditions over the weekend, Wei Yang returned to school on Monday and suddenly found himself becoming a big celebrity.

"Brother Yang is awesome."

"Old Wei, don't forget your brothers when you become rich."

"Wei Yang, are you free tomorrow? I'll treat you to a movie."

"Haha, you really won honor for our freshman class."

“…”

Originally, Wei Yang was popular in the class, but not to the point where almost everyone loved him. But now, no matter whether they knew him before or not, everyone would come over to chat with him.

Not to mention the classmates, even the class teacher came over to watch the fun and asked Wei Yang to go to his office after class.

"You are amazing, you wrote and performed your own play in your freshman year. There are not many people who can compare to you after so many years of studying in the theater."

"I heard that Director Zhou from the Literature Department is cursing that such a talented screenwriter was kidnapped to study acting. He almost hates Director Wang from our department to death."

The speed at which screenwriters can rise to fame is much slower than that of actors. Most professional screenwriters have to start as apprentices or work as screenwriters to slowly build up their experience.

For example, Wei Yang in his previous life, after graduating from university, worked as an apprentice and ghostwriter for several years before he was qualified to sign his name in the work column. When his name was listed first in the screenwriter column for the first time, he was already 29 years old.

Among the students currently enrolled in the Department of Literature at Shanghai Theatre Academy, the number of those who can write scripts independently can be counted on one hand, and most of them are in their third and fourth years of college.

Under such circumstances, Wei Yang, a student of the acting department, independently served as a screenwriter in his freshman year, which made the teachers in the literature department very angry.

Later, we find out that Wei Yang was originally a student of literature, but was poached by a performing arts school.

The head of the literature department was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He was very polite by not bringing people to fight back directly...

Upon hearing about the "tragedy" in the Department of Literature, Wei Yang felt somewhat embarrassed. After all, they were all his university teachers in his previous life.

Especially Director Zhou, I almost applied for his graduate school in my previous life. Although the old man has a bad temper, he is still very lovable.

"I was just lucky. I stumbled upon it by accident."

Wei Yang is very humble. He knows his own business best. In his previous life, he had been a screenwriter for nearly twenty years and was considered a first-line screenwriter in the industry, not to mention that he now has a super library of materials to draw on.

Comparing such a stupid person with these students who are still in school is really too bullying.

"Good luck is also part of strength."

The head teacher doesn't have Wei Yang's awareness. He just thinks his students are awesome.

"I have discussed it with the department head. This is a rare opportunity. I will go back and tell the teachers. For some non-important courses, such as leave, I will turn a blind eye."

"Thank you, teacher."

Wei Yang was very grateful and also made a promise: "Because it is a campus drama, the crew will start filming in June and wrap up at the end of summer vacation or early September, so it won't delay your studies too much."

"That's good. Work hard. The teacher is waiting for you to make me proud."

The head teacher is also a young teacher who has just taken over the class and still hopes to bring out a star student.

Not long after coming out of the office, Wei Yang was invited to dinner by someone. The person who came was Zhao Ji, who was officially confirmed to play the supporting role Luo Zhi in "The Best of Us".

Li Jiahang and Lou Yixiao also got roles, one played the third female role Jian Dan, and the other played the role of Zhou Fang, the male lead's good brother.

In addition, none of the previous Shanghai Theatre Academy alumni got the roles they wanted.

As for the big special role that Wei Yang got for Ma Xin and the other man, it had no name or surname, and its name was not even mentioned in the end credits. It was not enough to be considered a resume, and it did not gain anyone's attention or envy.

Zhao Ji's role was not important, just slightly better than a supporting role, but she was quite satisfied with it. After all, this was her debut work, so she specially invited Wei Yang to dinner to express her gratitude.

"You earned this on your own. I didn't help much."

Wei Yang did not take credit for himself. He helped a lot with Li Jiahang's role, Lou Yixiao also gave a push, and Zhao Ji really didn't say much to help.

It was just a small role, and the director valued her gentle and pure temperament. After asking Wei Yang, he decided to cast her.

Although Wei Yang said that he did not help much, Zhao Ji did not believe it. After several contacts, she thought that Wei Yang was a very low-key and humble person.

When speaking, she does not brag like many boys do. Instead, she likes to speak in a reserved manner, without being arrogant or impatient, and always keeping an open mind.

Wei Yang can keep a low profile out of habit, but Zhao Ji cannot really forget Wei Yang's help.

Due to her personality, she would not try to persuade him by any means necessary. Since Wei Yang would not agree to her request, she would just follow him and "force" him to have the meal.

However, Wei Yang did not eat her meal in vain, and gave Zhao Ji a few subtle suggestions.

"Don't think this role is too small, act well. If there is a second part in the future, Luo Zhi will have a big role."

More than just very heavy, Luo Zhi is the leading female character in "Unrequited Love: Oranges Born in Huainan", one of Zhenhua's trilogy.

Judging from her temperament and looks, Zhao Ji is very suitable for this role, but Wei Yang doesn't know whether there will be a second part. Even if there is, he has no say in the casting of the female lead, so Wei Yang did not reveal too much, so as not to make big promises that will not come true and disappoint people.

Just a few words of advice, if Zhao Ji listens and acts well, there might be hope in the future, but it’s okay if she doesn’t listen, it’s her own choice anyway…
