"It's not so much that I want to ask her what kind of person she is now. It's better to say that I'm not very interested in the people and things in my high school. I just feel that it's here in the blink of an eye. Brother Xiaoyong, you also said it just now. What kind of person was I then? Even if you want to hold a class reunion now, I will always feel surprised and confused, that kind of...
'ah? Is it necessary to have activities like class reunions? I'm not very familiar with you, so I asked Wen Liang what kind of person she was before, because now she is an artist under my banner, and knowing more about her is one of the few things I have learned about during this period of high school. I'm interested. To be honest, when I was filming with Wen Liang for more than half a year, we never talked about this kind of topic. The main reason is that I don't care about it. When I signed her, she was my old classmate. It doesn't matter much.
But now that the class reunion is going to be together, with this kind of environment and atmosphere, what else can I ask if I don’t ask these questions? Should I ask those students where they are employed and how much they earn every month? If it weren't for the arrangement between you and Tingting this time, Ai Qing would also have to go, I would really... ugh~"
He Tianran also picked up the whiskey on the table and took a sip. He really looked down upon the friendships between classmates in high school. He was like a bully like Xue Yong who had friends everywhere in school and was very popular. Said that there is no comparison between the two in terms of enthusiasm.
"That's true, but Director He, let's talk about it. On the day of the party, you must go. If you don't go, then the fun of this class reunion will be reduced by half. Tingting and I are both special Looking forward to your arrival.”
Xue Yong first agreed, then smiled with an expression that didn't deserve a beating.
He Tianran glanced at this bad friend and asked deliberately: "Why?"
"Damn it, you asked knowingly. Who would have thought that the otaku that everyone looked down on at the time would not only be admitted to a prestigious school after graduation, but also suddenly become the crown prince of Shanhai Group? It's nothing more than this. Who is called Are you hiding it? What is more terrifying? What is even more terrifying is that one of the two school beauties who attracted much attention at the time became your girlfriend after returning to China, and the other is now a female celebrity who can be seen online every day. The artists of your company are acting in a costume drama that your family invested and you personally filmed!
Director He, what do you think it would be like if these two beauties appeared at the party that night?
I won’t say whether others are expecting it or not. Anyway, just thinking about this scene makes me excited! "
Xue Yong became more and more excited as he talked, shaking his head in excitement. When He Tianran saw this, he chuckled and couldn't help pouring cold water on him:
"Tingting will definitely go in Ai Qing, and she was a class cadre at the time, and she has been in constant contact with some classmates in the past few years when she went abroad. As for Wenliang, it's hard to say whether she will go or not. Now that "The Wild Heart" has just been aired, she is busy I'm promoting it everywhere, appearing on shows, and there are announcements flying every day, let alone you, I, the boss, haven't even passed her this month, and if the class reunion is scheduled for the nearest time, she will definitely not be able to go."
"So today we are here to discuss this time issue~! What Tingting means is that everyone who has time should come as much as possible to make it more lively, and whether Wen Liang is free or not is not up to you, the boss."
After Xue Yong finished speaking, he raised his glass and touched it with He Tianran.
"You can't say that. Now my mother is in charge of the company's artists. If I have to continue to take care of this, I will be very busy. Recently, two TV stations in South Korea and Japan have come to discuss overseas distribution. Netflix. Bian is also in contact with me, but they are very ambitious and are talking about the broadcast rights in all overseas regions except our homeland. Now I am arguing with these people every day."
Xue Yong asked in confusion: "This is also considered the director's job? Can't you just finish filming?"
He Tianran shook his head helplessly, "This does not count as the director's job, but it is the boss's job..."
Regardless of whether it is a movie or a TV series, overseas distribution is a major factor that cannot be ignored. Many niche literary films are produced for millions, and the final box office may be tens of thousands. But as long as the overseas market is stronger, the final box office will be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. It's possible, not to mention some well-made episodes.
Our country's ancient-themed dramas have always been very popular in Southeast Asia. In recent years, they have even opened up the market in Europe and the United States. Therefore, whether it is Netflix or the Japanese and Korean TV stations, they have offered a price for "Into the Wild". It's very gratifying.
To make a digression here, He Tianran was a little surprised when South Korea's China TV came to find them. It was not because they came so early, but because when we talked next, they said that Wenliang was very popular in South Korea. The reputation is much higher than in China. Now I come here not only because I am optimistic about the quality of this drama, but also because Wen Liang stars in the drama.
He Tianran was stunned after hearing this and asked why?
They said that Wen Liang had acted in a literary film called "When the Roses Die" when she was in college. That film won the Best Film Award at the Venice Film Festival, although many of the accolades for that film were It was given to the director, and Wen Liang won the Best Newcomer at the domestic Academy Awards. However, the following year, she won all the awards at South Korea's Three Small Film Festivals, Busan, Baeksang, Blue Dragon and other film festivals. Best Actress nomination!
Of course, this does not rule out the fact that with the blessing of the Venice Award, the director of that film is himself Korean, and the film also filmed a very "correct" setting of a love story in two cities that took place in Yanbian and Seoul.
However, these three nominations really made Wen Liang famous in South Korea in her early years. At that time, Koreans called her the "second Tang Wei". You must know that Tang Wei was the first to win the Best Actress crown at the Blue Dragon Awards. Foreigners, to call Wen Liang this way is actually a very high praise, and it was her first movie.
It is not uncommon in the domestic entertainment industry to have flowers blooming within the wall and having fragrance outside the wall. However, with such authoritative and officially recognized deeds, debuting as an actor, even if it is just a nomination, the popularity will be maintained even more in Korea's hierarchical circles. For a longer time.
"Tsk, tsk, boss, I want to ask: Is it possible that Wen Liang has a job all year round and can't spare a day? If that's the case, then you really are the reincarnation of Zhou Papi."
Xue Yong clicked his tongue and joked.
"That's not the case, but there shouldn't be much chance during the period when "In the Wild" is airing anyway. Several variety shows that are going to be regulars are looking for her to talk about it. When I have time, I can tell her about the class reunion. Tell me, whether you come or not doesn’t mainly depend on what other people think.”
"That's true, but since your boss has already spoken, she shouldn't refuse."
"Aren't you going to say that I'm cheating now?"
"Hahahaha, I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch, I'll punish myself with one bite, I'll punish myself with one bite."
A drama has two episodes a day and is off the air for two days a week. It can be finished in a month at most. The class reunion is just a fixed time. As long as people can come together, it doesn't matter if it is put in this month or next month.
Seeing Xue Yong consciously take a sip of whiskey, He Tianran crossed his arms and asked:
"Hiss—Xue Yong, why do I feel that you seem to be very positive about whether Wen Liang comes or not?"
Xue Yong put down his wine glass and rubbed his hands with a sly look:
"Is it? Is it obvious?"
"It is clear."
"Hey..." After sighing, Xue Yong wiped the wine stains from his mouth and said, "I was also entrusted by someone to ask more questions."
He Tianran was stunned: "Entrusted by someone? Who is it?"
"Zhang Zhifan."
"Zhang...Zhang Zhifan? Who is it?"
Seeing He Tianran's confused look, Xue Yong couldn't help but exaggerate:
"Wow, brother, you really don't remember any of your classmates except Cao Aiqing! Zhang Zhifan, the piano prince of our school and the monitor of our class, confessed his love to Wen Liang at the welcome party in his senior year of high school. The one who was rejected!”
"Oh...you mean him."
When the other party said this, He Tianran finally had some impression. (End of chapter)
