The investment in Xia Ke Xing was a considerable sum.
However, there are many large-scale investment projects in the entertainment industry.
The production team behind this drama is really unremarkable in the entertainment industry.
From the company's director to the artists they hire, they are all well-known figures, and any one of them has extraordinary influence.
The director doesn't have any notable works, the production company is a small, unknown entity, and so far, there's no word on any A-list actors wanting to work with this drama.
For someone of Wen Xu's stature, if he wanted to act in a TV series, there would be plenty of scripts better than "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," and they would all be male-centric dramas centered around the male lead.
This notebook is really not a good choice for him.
Lu Yanci, who was standing very close to Qin Yue, heard his words clearly.
He remained silent with his eyelids lowered.
He twirled a strand of Qin Yue's hair between his fingertips.
Whether Wen Xu's purpose in making the call was for the sake of the drama or to curry favor with Qin Yue, anyone with eyes could see through it.
Lu Yanci followed the show "Heartbeat is Action" from beginning to end.
News about Qin Yue is frequently found online.
I read any topics related to her.
When Wen Xu suddenly appeared on the dating reality show, everyone said it was to pursue the person he liked.
This drama is produced by Qin Yue's company. When netizens learn that the newly crowned Best Actor is starring in this drama, it is likely that not only will the drama's popularity soar, but the number of fans who ship the two will also grow.
Qin Yue declined: "Teacher Wen is joking. There are so many production teams that want to invite Teacher Wen that they can't keep up with the demand. My low-budget film and television productions only hire some unknown actors. I wouldn't dare to let someone of Teacher Wen's caliber play a minor role in the drama."
"What kind of status do I have? It's all just empty fame, just making a living in the entertainment industry. I made this call to my junior with a selfish motive. I owe her a favor from before and never knew how to repay it. I wanted to take this opportunity to repay her. I wonder if she would be willing to give me this chance?"
Lu Yanci's face grew colder and colder.
This is an opportunity to repay a debt of gratitude.
Whether he's still hoping to finally find an opportunity to get closer to her is hard to say.
"Even a cat or dog that gets caught in the rain and is injured will be helped by passersby, let alone a person. It was really just a small favor back then. If Teacher Wen hadn't mentioned it on the show, I would have forgotten about it. If Teacher Wen keeps talking about gratitude, we can't have a proper conversation. He'll always think I'm someone who takes advantage of kindness."
The directing team has already started casting for the film. Since the main roles are all passionate young people who have just entered the world of martial arts, they are choosing students from film academies.
"Okay, if Teacher Wen is really interested in this script and is interested in some minor roles, he can contact the director and go through the proper procedures. As for his desired salary, we can discuss that during the audition."
The budget for this drama is limited, and given Wen Xu's status, it will be filtered out directly.
I can't afford it.
Even if he lowered his standards, he wouldn't use Qin Yue even if he could afford her.
"I didn't have any scheduled work for a while after the New Year. Anyway, I was free. It doesn't matter how many scenes I have. I've never filmed a martial arts drama before, so it would be an experience for me. The salary doesn't matter either. I never care about the salary when I film. I only care about how well I fit the role. When are you coming back? How about we talk more when we meet after you get back?"
Qin Yue said calmly, "It's not clear yet. I plan to go back in three to five days. The specifics will depend on my boyfriend's opinion. If Teacher Wen has a role in mind, it would be better to communicate with the director team as soon as possible."
Wen Xu was stunned. He hadn't heard anything; his mind was filled with the words "boyfriend."
“Boyfriend…” He gripped his phone tighter. “When did my junior get a boyfriend? I’ve never heard you mention it before.”
Qin Yue said in surprise, "Teacher Wen, let me think about how to respond to that. I was single when I participated in the program with you, Teacher Wen. My boyfriend and I got together after the program ended."
After the show aired, I don't think I've had much contact with Teacher Wen privately. Besides, neither my boyfriend nor I are public figures. Am I supposed to tell everyone I meet that I have a boyfriend?
He had heard her mention her boyfriend to Wen Xu with his own ears, and he was in a very good mood at the moment.
She has many suitors.
Lu Yanci was well aware that the fact that she chose him proved that those other suitors were not worth mentioning.
But seeing that she told others she had a boyfriend, he was still happy.
Conversely, if he's happy, someone else will be unhappy.
Warmth shattered his heart into pieces.
I've been hit hard by her again and again today.
He couldn't forget her, he couldn't let go of her. After so many years of hard work, he could finally reach out and touch her. His long-cherished wish had finally come true.
In the end, he discovered that he was not worth mentioning in her life at all.
He kept telling himself that there was plenty of time and he could take it slow, but in the end, it all became self-comfort and words to deceive himself.
A person flashed into Wen Xu's mind.
His intuition told him that her boyfriend might be that person.
Who it is and what does it matter?
Ultimately, this person is not him.
His lips moved; he wanted to say words of blessing and congratulations, but he couldn't utter a single word.
"Yes, you're right," he murmured dejectedly. "There was no need to tell someone I don't know very well."
His excellent professionalism allowed him to maintain his composure in this situation, and he continued, "I'm sorry, something has suddenly come up. I'll have my staff contact the director team about the audition."
After hanging up the phone, she instantly forgot about Wen Xu.
Whether he auditions or not is unimportant.
Remembering her mother's words, Qin Yue rested her head on Lu Yanci and said, "Before, my mother asked me when I planned to make it official. I said, since our relatives and friends already know we're together, it doesn't matter whether we make it official or not. What do you think?"
He certainly wanted a formal title.
But I also want to hide her away.
The fewer people who pay attention to her, the better.
"Let's wait a little longer."
Lu Yanci already had an idea in mind.
He wants to change his identity when he makes the official announcement.
He is not Qin Yue's boyfriend.
He is Qin Yue's fiancé.
Qin Yue didn't ask what they were waiting for.
I finally managed to steal some free time to relax, and I don't want to waste my time and energy on trivial matters.
She tightened her grip on Lu Yanci's arm, wanting to press herself as close to his embrace as possible, and said in a soft voice, "What should I do? I want to go out and see the snow, but I feel too tired."
Lu Yanci gently massaged the back of her neck with his fingertips: "Rest a little longer, then we'll have lunch before going out. How about we go rafting first, and then soak in the hot springs?"
