Chapter 78 The feeling of being cheated
When Li Che talked about this matter with Wei Chu, the smile that Wei Chu had been hanging on his face suddenly disappeared.

After all, Wei Chu is the boss of Huajing, no matter how concerned he is about this project, he won't stay on the set every day, so Wang Changxing didn't tell him what he thought.

He just flew over temporarily after hearing that the filming of the first episode was over.

"I'm afraid this old boy is going to run away!"

There was no one else around, so Wei Chu's words were not too polite, but his tone was not too worried.

"I said how he told me just now that the Cannes Film Festival might invite him to be a judge, and it would be delayed for half a month. I also comforted him that we can hurry up and compress the time."

Wei Chu walked up and down with his hands on his hips.

The Cannes Film Festival is held every year in mid-May, and there are still more than two months left.

"Run away?"

Li Che was completely confused, why did he plan to run away when he proposed to add a screenwriter?This damn poor information...

However, from Wang Changxing's meaning, it can be felt that although the first episode has not been produced yet, the effect may not have met his expectations.

"When I came out just now, I met Song Rong and asked her jokingly if she would go to Cannes with Wang Changxing. She told me that Wang Changxing told her that the quality of this drama must be fine. Now it seems that Wang Changxing I'm going to take Song Rong to run together, and I've also communicated with her. It just so happens that in May, Song Rong's main scenes will be filmed."

Wei Chu said with a half-smile.

"Wang Changxing actually doesn't like this script very much, you should be able to feel it."

Wei Chula and Li Che came to share the same hatred.

"is a bit."

Li Che didn't just discover it today.

"This kind of director of the older generation is getting worse and worse. The box office of domestic movies is 4-50, and he can only make 4-5. Isn't it an excuse to make a literary film and win awards? Don't be fooled by him. Yes, your script is very well written, what the market needs now is this kind of script, don't be influenced by him and go astray."

After Wei Chu complained, he still remembered to come back to comfort Li Che.

Being able to say so much in front of Li Che, Wei Chu also made a gesture for Li Che, and there is no need to have too many scruples when talking between the two.

"Of course I know."

Li Che couldn't laugh or cry, he was able to produce "Chai Xiaoqi" which seemed unremarkable, and "It's Your Turn" which had been criticized, so he definitely wasn't the kind of person who fell into Wen Qing's thinking.

"You don't seem very worried about him running away?"

Regardless of whether it was true or not, Li Che always wanted to inquire about the subsequent arrangements.

"If he can tell me that, it proves that he will film at least until May, and he won't ruin his own brand. If the show is not popular when the tenth episode is broadcast in May, is it because Wang Changxing filmed it? What's the point? If it becomes popular, I'll thank him for taking the initiative to save me money."

Wei Chu said so, but he still regretted it in his heart. When he signed the contract with Wang Changxing, he was not strict enough. Now that he thinks about it, Wang Changxing just ran away like that.

Thinking of this made my heart ache, and Wei Chu cursed.

"This is useless, he deserves that he and Song Rong are not together!"

Now that you know it in advance, you can prepare in advance to minimize the impact.

But right now, we still need to focus on the production and broadcast of the first episode, waiting for the market's reaction to verify.

After the first episode was filmed, the crew did not stop working completely, and the actors had a short break. Wang Changxing was editing for post-production, and his assistant helped him with rough editing every day. The final workload was not particularly heavy.

And Li Che had to interact with the screenwriter who came to the crew soon.

It was mentioned on the first day and arrived the next day. This speed should be the speed of being on call at any time in Xiangsha City.

Because he is not from Shonan.

Hei Yu, formerly known as Ye Pengcheng, is about forty years old, but he is not as steady as a middle-aged man. He looks like a comedian, with a chic side.

"I have long admired the name."

During the greetings, Li Che still complimented her so much, even though he hadn't read a few mystery novels before, and he hadn't heard of Hei Yu's name.

"You can't talk about a big name. You can just eat." Ye Pengcheng pushed his glasses and said politely, "The non-disclosure agreement has been signed. As for the script, I'll take a look first."

Coming up is the rhythm of entering the working state.

Wu Yan gave Ye Pengcheng the sealed and complete script, and now the entire crew only has this copy.He came here to mix his qualifications, unlike Ye Pengcheng who specialized in reasoning, so he kept doing odd jobs for Li Che on the set.

Li Che now has two assistants, Xiao Yu and Wu Yan, in the crew.

In fact, Wu Yan was writing other script tasks that Li Che gave him every day in his room.

This time the screenwriting team has outsiders here, so they can't be so messy, they have to come out and meet new colleagues together.

As expected, Ye Pengcheng was born in the writing of mystery novels. He was familiar with the routines of mystery dramas, and he finished reading the not-so-thin script in a short time.

"I have to say," Ye Pengcheng closed the script, "I can't write this kind of script. Brother Li Che, I can call you that."

Li Che nodded, taking Ye Pengcheng's words as compliments.

What about Ye Pengcheng's resume?

The pinnacle of career is the best original screenplay nominated for a foreign film festival, although that film festival has no authority.The scripts after that have been filmed, but the production level is not high, which can be regarded as the ideal life of a middle-level screenwriter.

"This script inspired me a lot," Ye Pengcheng said with emotion. "I used to pay too much attention to rationality when writing scripts, and my thinking was solidified. A novel may look good, but it may not be watchable when it is made into a TV series. When writing a script, you should ask questions first, and then think about solutions. I was putting the cart before the horse."

Li Che was overjoyed. If you told Wang Changxing that, would he still let you come?
Wang Changxing had a clear motive for asking you to come.

"Overrated."

Li Che should still be humble.

"To be honest, before I came here, I was still not very convinced by Brother Li. Although I asked my daughter about "Chai Xiaoqi", she liked it, but your qualifications are too low. After reading this script, I found that Brother Li You have a better grasp of the market than I do."

Ye Pengcheng took a sip of water to moisten his throat.

"Can't I set up all kinds of tricks and suspense in the script? I was familiar with it 20 years ago, but I just couldn't write it. I wondered why so many people didn't know how to install it when the show died. Cameras? Something like that, too much in this show. But even though it didn’t air, I still think it’s going to be a success.”

The evaluation standard for middle-aged adults is no longer whether the script is perfect, but whether it can make money and gain ratings.

"Before I came here, I watched a program recorded by Mango Channel in Xiangsha City. A magician was hired in the program. I actually don't like magic, because they can't fool me, but the audience likes it very much.

"The magician performed two magic tricks, one was performed on the Spring Festival Gala, but the props were revealed online, and the other was a simple but fresh-looking card trick. The applause received by the cards was much higher than that of the first magic. I Suddenly, what the audience likes is not magic, but the feeling of being deceived."

"The same may be true of writing speculative screenplays."
