That evening, Wei Su updated a Weibo post, saying that she had to withdraw from the filming of "Penglai" due to personal health problems. The essay was written very carefully, and it was not difficult to see that she was sorry to the crew. She also posted a photo of herself lying on a hospital bed.
In the photo, Wei Shu was receiving an IV drip and looked very pale. He did not seem to be in good condition.
Wei Shu's history of heart disease is no secret, so after she posted on Weibo, fans were concerned about whether she had a heart attack again. At the same time, this was also the most likely solution to reduce the impact after her team thought about it. After all, she was directly terminated and replaced due to breach of contract. She couldn't afford to lose this person, and Rong Guang couldn't afford to lose this person even more.
Not long after Wei Shu finished her Weibo post, Director Shang reposted her Weibo post, expressing regret for her withdrawal, but at the same time he also felt that health is more important than anything else, so he told her to have a good rest in the end.
Compared to the filming of "Penglai", fans are obviously more worried about her physical health, and netizens are very tolerant of this congenital disease history, so the vast majority of netizens kindly let her have a good rest, and at the same time expressed regret for her withdrawal.
Meanwhile, Wei Shugang, who was supposed to be well-mannered, smashed a set of cups in the VIP ward.
heart disease
She was afraid that she might get so angry that she would have a heart attack at any moment!
Chi Yue looked at her expressionlessly, "Are you done smashing it? After that, you can rest well in the hospital for the next half month."
Wei Shu was stunned for two seconds, then looked at Chi Yue in disbelief, "Sister Chi, what do you mean? What do you mean I have to rest in the hospital for the next half month? What about my future work? What about the notice?"
"You just withdrew from the filming due to a sudden heart attack, and in just two days you can attend the event in such a glamorous manner? Moreover, letting you rest is not only because of the excuse of withdrawing from the filming, but also because it is a punishment from the company. Your work for the next half month has been suspended. Okay, Xiao Fu, you stay and take care of it. I have to go back to deal with your mess! After saying that, Chi Yue left without looking back.
Fans of the book "Penglai" also accepted Wei Su's role as Xuanli. Now that she has withdrawn, they are inevitably concerned about who will take over the role of Xuanli. However, they are concerned rather than worried, because the chief screenwriter of "Penglai" is their own boss.
Here, Ying Yanluo was also having a meeting with Director Shang and a few others to discuss the casting issue.
Director Shang still threw the initiative to Ying Yanluo.
"Yanluo, do you have a suitable candidate in mind?"
Ying Yanluo thought for a moment and said, "Ye Shutong."
Xie Zhun, who was originally looking down at his phone and didn't care much about the casting, subconsciously looked at her after hearing the name.
"But as far as I know, Teacher Ye's team seems to have just contacted her with a big IP that is very suitable for her. Is she willing to come and save the situation?" In fact, Director Shang himself has also screened it in his mind. Ye Shutong's appearance and personality are the most suitable, so after she proposed Ye Shutong, he even breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was a little expectant, because he knew that she seemed to have a good personal relationship with Ye Shutong.
Ying Yanluo asked Ye Shutong for help, and Ye Shutong agreed without much hesitation.
"Really? Where's that big IP you just contacted?"
"Don't answer it. It's more important than saving you."
Ying Yanluo laughed, "I'm afraid it's not just to save me, right?"
"Stop teasing me. Your man's methods are also very clean and efficient. He has spent a lot of money on this matter for you."
Ying Yanluo's smile paused, "You, what do you mean by this?"
Ye Shutong noticed something was wrong, "Don't you know?"
After hanging up the phone with Ye Shutong, it was almost twelve o'clock, but Ying Yanluo was no longer sleepy. She held the phone in her hand and tossed and turned in bed for a while. Finally, she couldn't help but send a WeChat message to Su Weichu.
With a "buzz", the cell phone vibrated particularly clearly in the silent study.
Su Weichu turned his head to look over.
Yanyan: Are you asleep
Su Weichu put down the pen in his hand and took the phone: Not yet
After seeing the message, Ying Yanluo sat up from the bed and sent a WeChat video.
Su Weichu looked at her avatar that appeared at the bottom of the screen and clicked to answer the call.
They saw each other through the phone screen.
Ying Yanluo recognized it as the study room at home, "You haven't returned to your room yet?"
Su Weichu said, "Hmm," "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
"I just got off the phone with Ye Shutong."
"It seems like we had a good chat?" he said.
Ying Yanluo pulled the quilt down a little, "It's good, she agreed to come to help me, and she can join the team after the contract is signed."
"Ye Shutong has a good image, so she should be a good fit."
Ying Yanluo looked at him and suddenly asked, "What is suitable?"
Su Weichu paused for two seconds and explained: "... Well, I saw it on the Internet."
Ying Yanluo pursed her lips and said, "Mr. Su, hasn't anyone told you that you are really not suitable for lying?"
Su Weichu raised his hand and pushed up his glasses. "You know everything?"
"If I don't ask, will you not tell me?"
Su Weichu: "You're still talking about me?"
"What's wrong with me?"
"Have you told me about what happened to you on the set during this time?"
"I just don't want you to worry, and besides, it's not a big deal..."
Su Weichu looked at her quietly until the voice behind Ying Yanluo became smaller and smaller, and gradually disappeared.
"Say it, why don't you say it now?"
Ying Yanluo pursed her lips and said nothing.
"When I left, I told you to take good care of yourself on the set. Look how you've been bullied."
Ying Yanluo retorted, "I don't think it's bullying, right?"
"You, what should I say about you?"
Ying Yanluo tilted her head and smiled at him, "Then don't talk about me."
Su Weichu couldn't help laughing, and there was tenderness in his deep eyes.
"But... you've invested so much, aren't you afraid of losing money later?"
"Then will you let me lose money?" Su Weichu asked her back.
Ying Yanluo immediately shook her head, "No!"
"That's it." Su Weichu continued, "When the company invests in a project, it's not just me who has the final say. It has to go through evaluation and voting. The reason why I was able to make a successful investment is more importantly because this project is worth it. So you just need to shoot well and don't feel too burdened because of me."
Ying Yanluo felt as if she was surrounded by a warm current, "Okay! Don't worry, sir! I will definitely take Ye Shutong and Xie Zhun with me! I will make a lot of money for you!!!"
Su Weichu looked at her sparkling eyes on the screen and said, "Okay, then I'll count on you to make a lot of money for me."
…
The crew was very surprised when they found out that Ye Shutong would replace Wei Shu and continue filming Xuan Li, but they were more expectant because Ye Shutong had a good relationship with Teacher Ying, and Teacher Ying was someone with her personality, so Teacher Ye, who had been friends with her for so many years, must be a very nice person in private as well.
Zhao Ranran was also very happy. Among the many artists she had met, Ye Shutong was her favorite.
She really didn't expect that Mr. Su could handle things so quickly! If she had known this would happen, she would have reported it earlier. In this way, the senior sister wouldn't have to endure so much anger from her. Although this incident happened a few days ago, Zhao Ranran still felt so angry that she wanted to hit someone when she thought about it.
Just as she was feeling happy, she was blocked by Ying Yanluo.
"Senior, what's up?"
Ying Yanluo smiled, "Well, there is one thing."
"What's the matter?"
"I heard that Su Group invested in our drama..."
"Senior, I suddenly remembered that the field management teacher just asked me for something. Let's talk about it later." Having said that, Zhao Ranran wanted to run away.
Ying Yanluo calmly moved sideways to block the door.
Zhao Ranran smiled bitterly, "Senior, what are you doing?"
"I haven't even finished talking, why are you running?"
Zhao Ranran rolled her eyes, "I didn't run away, something really happened."
Ying Yanluo just looked at her without saying anything.
Zhao Ranran resisted for a few seconds, and finally said: "Okay, I admit that I was the one who reported it. Senior sister, please don't be angry with me?"
Ying Yanluo chuckled and gently reached out and flicked her forehead, "I'm not angry with you."
Zhao Ranran's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but ask, "Really?"
"Really, but..."
Zhao Ranran became nervous and waited quietly for what was to come.
"I know you care about me, but try not to do this again in the future."
Zhao Ranran nodded immediately, "Okay, okay, I promise."
"Okay, isn't it the field manager who's looking for you? Go ahead."
Zhao Ranran smiled. How could the field teacher come to her? It was just her excuse.
Ye Shutong quickly signed the contract with the crew. After signing the contract, she joined the crew with her assistant and luggage.
When she came, she brought gifts and snacks for all the crew members. Although they were not very expensive, the crew members were still very happy. She came to save the day. Everyone was grateful to her, and now they like her even more. She has been in the crew for less than a while, and everyone who sees her will not greet her with a smile.
In the evening, Director Shang specially called all the main creators to have dinner together.
After this meal, Director Shang could sense that their subsequent filming would go smoothly.
The next day, Ye Shutong officially started filming.
The news that Ye Shutong would play Xuanli spread quickly. She and Wei Shu are the same type of beauties, so book fans and netizens did not feel too uncomfortable about her playing the role of Xuanli, especially fans of Ye Shutong and Ying Yanluo, who were particularly excited.
Because they are not in the same circle, one is a screenwriter and the other is an actor, so there is no competition for resources and interests between them. The relationship between the two protagonists is good, and their fans get along well with each other, so both families work harder to promote "Penglai".
When filming, Ye Shutong and Xie Zhun behaved very naturally. If Ying Yanluo didn't know the truth, she would have thought that the two were just colleagues.
It's inevitable for directors to like to compare actors. After all, it's an occupational disease. Director Shang has to say that Ye Shutong's acting skills are much better than Wei Shu's. More importantly, she doesn't have any airs and is very cooperative with the work. Even if he has to make up for the shots that were deleted by Wei Shu in the later stage, he is happy to do so.
…
In mid-July, Spring Breeze was scheduled to be released. Chief screenwriter Ying Yanluo and leading actress Zhao Yixuan had to attend the media meeting for the launch, but unfortunately, their crew's filming schedule was very tight in the past few days. In order not to delay tomorrow's filming, director Shang asked them to go and come back the same day.
The fan meeting of "Spring Breeze" started at 8 pm. There was still some time left when we arrived at the scene. Zhao Yixuan was the heroine, so she had to put on makeup and do her hair. Ying Yanluo was much more casual. She was dressed conservatively, not stealing the spotlight but also not losing etiquette.
While the leading actors were putting on makeup, she went to say hello to Director Feng and the others.
There were three people from their director team, Director Feng, the assistant director and her.
Director Feng asked her about her new crew and then took her to familiarize herself with the process.
"Spring Breeze" is broadcast live offline. The fifteen minutes before the actors go on stage are reserved for the directors to introduce the structure, production, and shooting of the TV series. Naturally, Ying Yanluo will go on stage with them.
Ying Yanluo had previously reposted the media meeting of "Spring Breeze" on Weibo, so in addition to the fans of the main creators, her readers were also watching the live broadcast. The main creators had not come on yet, and the fans naturally would not show themselves too much at this time, so after the live broadcast channel was opened, Ying Yanluo's readers were the most active in the barrage.
Xiao Wei was holding the meal brought by the hotel staff and heard a noise as soon as he entered the door.
He looked over curiously, and saw that President Su was sitting on the sofa, holding his iPad in both hands, watching and listening to something, as if he was watching some interview program. Xiao Wei was surprised. When did President Su care about such a program
Su Weichu's eyes fell on Ying Yanluo on the iPad. She was wearing a misty blue dress, and her exposed skin was fair and delicate. She held a black microphone in her clean hands and answered the host's questions with a smile on her face.
"Mr. Su, it's time to eat." Xiao Wei said.
Su Weichu said "hmm", took the iPad over and placed it on the dining table.
Xiao Wei was surprised but didn't dare to say anything. He had been with Su Weichu for so many years, but he had never seen him distracted by watching any program while eating. But when he listened carefully, he heard a familiar voice, sounded... like the lady's
The crew of "Spring Breeze"
Isn’t this the TV drama project that my wife is participating in
Xiao Wei understood instantly.
So he followed and watched the meeting while eating.
"Have you communicated with the project manager?" Su Weichu suddenly asked him.
Xiao Wei quickly retracted his gaze and answered seriously, "It's been coordinated. I will come to report on the project on time at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. We will go to the site together after it is completed."
In the next ten minutes, Su Weichu did not take his eyes off the iPad, but continued to communicate with Xiao Wei about project issues.
When the host started to cue the main creators, Ying Yanluo and the assistant director were also preparing to leave.
Su Weichu watched the figure disappear behind the scenes.
Ying Yanluo walked backstage, said hello to Zhao Yixuan and others who were about to go on stage, and then returned to the lounge.
As soon as she entered the lounge, she heard the phone she had placed on Zhao Ranran ringing.
Zhao Ranran took out her cell phone in surprise, "What a coincidence." Then she saw the note on the caller ID and almost dropped her phone.
"What's wrong with you?" Ying Yanluo asked.
Zhao Ranran handed her the vibrating cell phone. Ying Yanluo saw "Mr. Su" on the caller ID and a smile appeared in her eyes. She noticed the other staff in the lounge, took the phone and walked out.
There were about thirty minutes left until the end of "Spring Breeze". If he was in Beijing, she would want to stop a car and run to see him even if it was only for these thirty minutes. But she also felt that if she was really in Beijing, he would most likely come to see her.
It was not until Zhao Ranran came over to remind her that Ying Yanluo realized that thirty minutes could pass so quickly.
After Ying Yanluo hung up the phone with Su Weichu, they returned to the lounge.
"Where's Zhao Yixuan?" she asked.
Zhao Ranran said: "She said she was going to the bathroom and would be back soon."
Ying Yanluo nodded, "Have you packed everything?"
"I've packed it up and am waiting for her to come back."
Ying Yanluo waited for a while, then she stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom too, are you going?"
Zhao Ranran shook her head, "No, I won't go up. I'll show you something here."
"good."
When Ying Yanluo was walking back from the bathroom, she suddenly realized something was wrong. Didn't she say Zhao Yixuan also went to the bathroom? Why didn't she see her
"Master Ying?"
Ying Yanluo looked over and saw that it was Zhao Yixuan's assistant.
"Master Ying, have you seen Yixuan?"
Ying Yanluo was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"
"I can't find her?" The assistant looked anxious.
"Can't find it? How can you not find it? Didn't you say you were going to the bathroom?"
"Yes, she came, but...she came out first and said she would wait for me outside. But when I came out, she was not there."
"Where's the phone? Call her?"
"She didn't bring her cell phone. It's here with me."
The assistant was very nervous, because this seemed to be the first time she encountered such a situation. She knew her, she was not the kind of person who would leave without saying goodbye. In these few short minutes, she had already imagined too many things.
Seeing her pale face, Ying Yanluo comforted her, "Don't worry. Let's do this. You look for it again. I'll go find the hotel manager and ask for the surveillance footage for this floor."
Upon hearing this, the assistant nodded quickly.
Ying Yanluo asked for surveillance because the hotel was owned by her family and she was able to get the surveillance.
When the hotel manager saw her and heard her say that she wanted to adjust the surveillance, Eryi immediately adjusted it without telling her, but then he realized what she wanted to do with the surveillance. So he asked nervously, "Miss Er, has something happened?"
Ying Yanluo had a feeling that nothing would happen to Zhao Yixuan, a big man, and she didn't want to scare him, so she didn't tell him in detail, but just said that there was something she wanted to know.
After hearing what she said, the hotel manager tactfully stopped asking any more questions.
After arriving at the monitoring room, he immediately asked the person in charge of monitoring on duty to call up the surveillance according to her request.
The hotel's surveillance camera was installed at the end of the corridor outside the bathroom. From the surveillance camera, it could be seen that Zhao Yixuan did go into the bathroom with her assistant, and she came out early. Then, a young man in a suit suddenly appeared in the surveillance camera. He waved at Zhao Yixuan, and Zhao Yixuan immediately trotted over with a smile.
Lin Du
The three people in the monitoring room clearly saw that Lin Du in the surveillance video skillfully reached out and hugged Zhao Yixuan who was running towards him.
Ying Yanluo: “???”
Hotel manager: “!!!”
Personnel on duty: “!!!”
When Ying Yanluo came out of the monitoring room, the hotel manager said before she could speak: "Don't worry, Miss Second. You saw it with your own eyes in the monitoring room. It has been deleted. I promise he won't say anything nonsense." He added: "Neither will I."
"Thank you then." Ying Yanluo smiled at him.
After Ying Yanluo went back, Zhao Yixuan had already returned. When she saw her, she immediately trotted over to her. "You, you're back?" She looked quite nervous. "Well, what? I just ran into an acquaintance and chatted for a while. It was Sister Xiaoye who was too nervous."
Xiao Ye was also a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Master Ying, I think too much."
Ying Yanluo shook her head and said, "It's okay, I'm glad I'm back."
Zhao Yixuan opened her mouth as if she wanted to ask something, but when she saw other staff members in the lounge, she held back.
She didn't ask, and Ying Yanluo didn't say anything.
The topic was just passed over until a few hours later, when they returned to their hotel in Hengdian.
Zhao Ranran and Xiao Ye lived downstairs from them. After they left, they were the only two people left in the elevator. Zhao Yixuan couldn't help but asked, "Xiao Ye said you went to check the hotel surveillance? Did you see anything?"
"What do you want me to see?" Ying Yanluo asked back.
Zhao Yixuan looked very nervous. "Okay, I'll confess and Lin..."
"This is between you two. You don't need to tell me. Also, I have already seen that the surveillance footage at the hotel has been completely deleted." Ying Yanluo took her phone. With a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened. She reminded, "You have reached your floor."
The next day, when Ying Yanluo got up, she saw that Zhao Yixuan had sent her two WeChat messages at three in the morning.
Zhao Yixuan: The favor we talked about last time has been repaid
Ying Yanluo shook her head helplessly, and suddenly wondered if she had a bit of a matchmaker physique.
Lu Yiming and Gao Lin, Zhao Yixuan and Lin Du all became a couple.
I don’t know which couple they will be in “Penglai”
…
Although the ratings of the first episode of "Spring Breeze" were not as high as "Flames", it still received good response among several campus dramas aired at the same time. The main reason is that the actors in this drama are all very good-looking. Just relying on the faces of the main creators, the performance of this drama will not be bad in the future.
As expected, half a month after its premiere, the ratings of Spring Breeze began to gradually rise, and soon overshadowed several youth dramas that were broadcast before it. When Director Feng called Ying Yanluo to announce the good news, he also told her about another great piece of good news.
They had previously submitted "Flame" for this year's Flying General Awards and were successfully shortlisted, and nominated for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director and Best Screenwriter Awards, and Ying Yanluo was also nominated for Best Screenwriter this time.
After hanging up the phone, Ying Yanluo was still a little confused.
Ye Shutong came over holding a Starbucks, "Didn't you talk to Director Feng on the phone? What happened?"
Ying Yanluo's eyes gradually focused, and she looked at Ye Shutong, "Director Feng told me that I was nominated for the Best Screenwriter of the Flying General Award."
Ye Shutong's eyes widened and he almost dropped the Starbucks in his hand. "Is this true?"
"Director Feng told me personally."
Ye Shutong hugged her fiercely, "Yan Yan! You have made it!"
Director Shang and the others soon found out about this. He patted her on the shoulder and said, "The Flying General Award is quite valuable. Although the chances of winning are not that high, this is your first time participating in a script adaptation, and you have been nominated for Best Screenwriter for your first work. In fact, regardless of whether you can win the award later, it is already good enough for you."
I think after winning the Flying General Award, Ying Yanluo has his own place in their screenwriter circle.
Screenwriters Qiao and Jiang were also very excited. Those who knew that Ying Yanluo was nominated for the Best Screenwriter Award thought that they were nominated. "Yes, you are still so young, there are plenty of opportunities to win awards. Let's go there in advance to check it out."
Screenwriter Jiang's words made everyone laugh.
Screenwriter Qiao rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you think you're a thief? Are you checking out the place?"
Ying Yanluo said: "The director I know was actually nominated this time thanks to screenwriter Feng and his team." She was speaking the truth. When she was working on "Flames", screenwriter Feng and his team taught her a lot. She learned a lot of experience from them. This nomination was the result of their team's hard work.
The news that Ying Yanluo was nominated for Best Screenwriter quickly spread throughout their crew. Everyone had a smile on their face, and it was obvious that they were truly happy for her.
