Yuqiongyin
Chapter 16: Fuqi
Xi Chenning nodded and left the table, and Lin Wei followed her back to her lounge.
"Chen Ning, you've rested for so long since the filming of "Carefree" was finished last time, it's time to join the crew to film. There are a few good scripts recently, I put them on your desk, can you take them back and take a look at them in the evening?"
"Okay, which one do you like, Sister Wei?"
After the filming was wrapped, her schedule was very full. She had to complete the offline activities that she had previously endorsed, so she finally had this Sunday off.
After being together for such a long time, Xi Chenning also knows the habits of her agent Lin Wei. She has a good eye for selecting scripts, so Xi Chenning will always ask for her opinion.
However, every role she plays is one that Xi Chenning likes. Even if it is not the protagonist, as long as the character has no special features, she can still bring it to life.
"I've read almost all of them. The best one should be this one, the one I recommended to you before, and the one you've read before."
Lin Wei naturally knew Xi Chenning's habits. Every time she asked Xi Chenning to choose a script, she would put the one she thought was the best at the top.
Xi Chenning looked in the direction of her fingertips. Unlike the others, the thicker script had "Fuqiu" written in flamboyant calligraphy.
She nodded slightly. She had seen this movie before and studied the characters in it. She still had some memory of the script. "I understand. I'll take a look at it in the lounge first."
"Well, I think you can try to get it. You've read the original novel before, but you joined the crew to shoot something else before the filming started. The author of this book wants you to play the leading female role in her mind. I think you will agree, so I'll show you the adapted script."
"Well, I still have to watch the new adaptation. Is the original author a fan of mine? She doesn't look like it."
Xi Chenning was very curious. She accepted scripts casually and had seen many such scripts that specifically asked her to play the leading female role the first time they were handed to her, but this one was unexpected.
"Not really. I've talked to the author before, and she said your ancient costume look is very suitable for the compassionate heroine in the book 'Fuqi'. I think you look quite similar." Lin Wei also had a good impression of the author Yuezhi.
Xi Chenning nodded and signaled Lin Wei to continue.
"This novel "Fuqi" is also a popular IP with a heroine as the main character on the Internet, as I have mentioned before. The number of collections on the platform alone has exceeded 30, and it has a large number of fans. When Lotte chose it to buy the copyright and released the news that it would be adapted into a film and television work, it also attracted a lot of attention.
The director is still the genius Director Li, and the costume director is Director Guo Ming, who has moved behind the scenes. His aesthetic has been online since his debut. In addition, the original author Yue Zhi will also participate in the script adaptation. At that time, it was really hyped up on Weibo for several days, and the expectations were full. "
"Huh? Lotte actually made such a big investment, Director Li and Director Guo, and even hired the original author."
This surprised Xi Chenning a little, not just because Director Li and Director Guo were willing to shoot such a fantasy drama.
It is also because some authors do not care how their works will be filmed after selling the copyright. Unexpectedly, after Lotte bought the copyright, it even invited the original author to adapt and create together.
"Yes, it was not easy for Letian to win the role of Fuqi. The original author's additional condition was to let her participate in the adaptation of the script. This is also her first novel. She said that her previous works were not good enough, so she naturally wanted to supervise the adaptation of the film and television version herself to make it more perfect and better presented to everyone."
When the contract was first signed, Lotte had very high requirements, hoping to win it right away.
It's not only because fantasy dramas are gradually becoming popular, but also because "Fuqi" has a huge fan base. Both the work and the author have a great influence. The fact that the novel is adapted into a TV series with the participation of the original author is icing on the cake.
Moreover, this is the author Yuezhi's first novel to be adapted into a film or TV series. If it has a good impact and receives a great response, the original author will give her priority when buying the copyrights of her other novels.
"Well, it sounds pretty good, but I don't know what the plot will be like after this adaptation."
Xi Chenning became more interested. He put on his glasses, stroked the pages with his fingers, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
"You were interested in this script before, but I don't know if you would still want to take it after the adaptation."
"Then let me take a look first?"
Lin Wei nodded, "That's fine, we still have time to think about it."
Lin Wei suddenly remembered something and said quickly, "By the way, Yue Zhi, the original author of "Fuqi", said that because you are in Lotte, he wanted to let you play the leading female role. The senior management asked me to show you the script. We have read it before, and now you can read it again after the adaptation. The final decision is yours. If you like it, we will act. If you don't like it, the company has other artists."
She nodded to show that she understood.
"The male lead of Fuqi is Luo Yunyu, according to the fans' choice. The official Weibo account confirmed it two days ago. The fans were very excited and it became a hot search on Weibo. But it was suppressed by your scandal at noon the next day... The female lead, the second female lead, and other important roles have not been decided yet."
Xi Chenning smiled gently, feeling that he had some connection with this drama.
