Attack and suffer properly

"Why is there a briefcase here, left by brother Ling?" Cheng Shuang asked, seeing the briefcase on the coffee table at a glance.

"It was the script he showed me. He wanted to invite me to star in the web drama he made." Xiao Xiaodong didn't hide anything, and revealed that Ling Ri was the screenwriter.

"It turns out that he is a screenwriter. No wonder I think he has a scholarly temperament." Star-eyed, fascinated.

Xiao Xiaodong joked: "I thought you were angry with him, but I didn't expect you to appreciate him so much."

"I'm not angry with him, even if I can't be a lover, I can still be a friend." Cheng Shuang puffed up her chest and said that she is a very generous person, not the kind of person who holds grudges when rejected.

A little curious about the script that Ling Ri brought, Chengshuang picked up the script and started to read it.

Suddenly, Chengshuang screamed, as if being stimulated by something, Xiao Xiaodong was so frightened that he almost spit out the tea in his mouth.

"what happened?"

Holding the script in both hands, he said excitedly: "No wonder I always thought Brother Ling looked familiar, so he is the King of the Lantern Festival!"

Xiao Xiaodong blinked, is the King of Lantern Festival famous?

"King of Yuanxiao, don't you know?" Seeing Xiao Xiaodong's bewildered expression, Cheng Shuang enthusiastically helped him popularize science.

Yuanxiao Dawang is an internet writer and cartoonist. He made his debut by writing fan fiction. The first work he wrote was made a god, and he has tens of thousands of followers.After that, his so-called writing journey was smooth sailing, and he made rapid progress, and even published several novels under the operation of the website.

However, five years ago, he broke up with the website and was blocked.After that, he disappeared from the online literature circle.

Just when everyone thought he would never recover from a setback in the future, he made his appearance again, but this time as a cartoonist.

From his debut to winning the highest honor award in the comics industry, it took him only three years to change from a rookie to a master.

"I like comics because of his masterpiece "Blue Moon". This comic is simply a masterpiece. When it was serialized on the Internet, it caused a sensation. When it was officially published, it was hard to find a book. , It was added three times. He rarely appeared in public, the only time he was interviewed by a magazine was after he won the award, and it was only then that I discovered that the male god was so handsome."

Speaking of this, they clasped their hands together, looking like a young girl in Huaichun, expressing their love for Ling Ri, an idol.

Xiao Xiaodong plucked his ears, and waited until Chengshuang finished expressing his love confession before asking: "Could this script be an adaptation of his masterpiece?"

Chengshuang shook his head, "No, this is his award-winning work, and it's also my favorite "Happy City". Brother Xiao, will you agree to appear in this play? Believe me, this show will definitely make you It was an instant hit."

Xiao Xiaodong raised his eyebrows, disapproving of Chengshuang's words.

He can understand Chengshuang's fan mentality. As long as it is an idol's work, it will definitely be popular. However, whether a drama can be popular or not depends on many factors: the script, actors, director, production, and the right time, location, and harmony. Indispensable.

Faced with the expectant eyes, Xiao Xiaodong had no choice but to say: "I'll read the script first, and whether I can accept this drama depends on Brother Tan."

"Then read the script first. I will find the original book of "Happy City" later and let you read it. Then you will definitely fall in love with this work." After finishing speaking, Cheng Shuang turned around and walked into the kitchen Let's cook.

Xiao Xiaodong picked up the script and began to read the contents inside.

Originally, he just read the script casually with the mentality of trying it out, but he didn't know that the more he read it, the more he couldn't put it down, and he finished the whole script in one sitting.

Stretching out his hands and rubbing his tense temples, he found that his hands and feet were limp. He looked at the time, it turned out that it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and he didn't even eat dinner, so it's no wonder he felt exhausted.

"Brother Xiao, have you finished reading? Isn't it so good that you can't stop watching it?" Cheng Shuang came out of the bathroom and saw that Xiao Xiaodong had put down the script, so he walked over with a smile.

Xiao Xiaodong picked up the teacup on the coffee table and drank it down in one gulp, "Is there anything to eat? I'm starving to death."

"Yes, wait a minute, I'll reheat it for you." Cheng Shuang quickly turned around and walked into the kitchen.

After a while, Cheng Shuang brought Xiao Xiaodong a sumptuous dinner.While he was eating, she sat by the side and exchanged her views on the work "Happy City" with him.

To put it simply, this "City of Joy" tells the story of how a country boy with unique skills becomes a grand master step by step in a big city.

At first glance, this story is not much different from other web novels, but the author's storytelling technique and the portrayal of the characters are quite wonderful. Often a rather ordinary thing will become infinitely interesting after the author's description.Moreover, the author's layout concept is ingenious, and the plots are linked one after another, which makes people want to stop watching.

"Brother Xiao, will you take over the filming of this movie? If you were to play the male lead in this show, you would definitely be able to play the male lead very well. If you were any other traffic niche, you would definitely not be able to play the leading role." It comes from a character that is inseparable from good and evil."

Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Xiao Xiaodong took out a tissue and wiped his mouth, then picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to rinse his mouth.

"Do you have too much confidence in me? The character of the male protagonist is both good and evil. If he acts well, he will be impressive, but if he acts badly, he will also be reviled. There should be many people who like this work. , and there are 1 Hamlets in the hearts of 1 people, I can't guarantee that the leading actor in the show will be the leading actor in the hearts of your fans."

Over the years, many IP dramas have been filmed, but not too many of them are popular, some have poor reputation, and some have low ratings, especially those original works are very picky about the actors.

Among them was a remake, because the effect was really unsatisfactory, not only the rating was only two or three points, and the actors were sprayed out, but also because of the new version, the old version was forced to become a paid program on the platform.

Cheng Shuang looked firmly in his eyes and said: "Brother Xiao, I want you to take this drama, not only because Brother Ling is my idol, but also because I really think this role is very suitable for you. I know what you are worried about, as you are now A star of such a position takes over the filming of an online drama, which is tantamount to lowering his own value, but I have a hunch that you will definitely create a classic when you cooperate with Brother Ling. All along, you are short of a masterpiece. I am confident that this drama will definitely will be your signature."

Xiao Xiaodong didn't agree directly, but only said that he would think about it carefully. However, when he had a video call with Tang Junlin at night, he proposed to him that he wanted to take over the filming of this web drama.

"This script is really interesting. Although, I don't know if this drama will be a hit, but if you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to encounter such a good script in the future. But the company probably won't agree to let me accept it." I made this web drama because I didn't want to be manipulated by capital, Ling Ri invested in this work himself, and he can only pay half of my current price."

Xiao Xiaodong sighed in shock, in fact, needless to say, he also wanted to take over the filming of this movie, but the objective reality did not allow him to do whatever he wanted.

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Xiaodong's expression could be fully seen. Tang Junlin didn't say much at the moment, but after hanging up the phone, he went to look for "Happy Street".

"What are you looking at so fascinated by?"

After taking a shower, Fan Texi, who was coming out with his face to apply to his face, saw Tang Junlin reading a comic book, and couldn't help wondering if he was dazzled.

Tang Junlin raised the cover so that Fan Texi could see the title clearly.

"You also like to read "Happy Street"?" Fan Texi became interested. He didn't expect that a mature and steady CEO like Tang Junlin would like to read comics, and his taste was the same as hers.

"Have you read this comic too?" Hearing this, Tang Junlin heard that Fan Texi seemed to be a fan of this "Happy Street", so he asked her if "Happy Street" was made into an online drama, would she Someone is watching.

"Of course someone will watch it, and definitely not less." Fantsi said firmly.

"How to say?" There are quite a few IP works that have been made into TV dramas, but not many of them are really well-received. Tang Junlin is really curious about Fan Texi's confidence.

"Do you know how many fans there are in this "Happy Street"? According to rough statistics, there are hundreds of thousands of fans. They are all hardcore fans. As long as you use dim sum to shoot, it's not the kind of shoddy work, and the results will not be bad. If it is well-produced and there are first-line traffic stars participating, then this drama will definitely be a hit."

After a pause, Fan Texi looked at Tang Junlin with a smile.

"You ask so many questions. Is it Xiao Xiaodong who wants to take over the filming of this movie? Will the Lantern Festival King participate in this movie? Let him introduce me when the time comes. I'm a big fan of his."

Tang Junlin's eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "How difficult is this. By the way, do you want to get in touch with your idol, or even cooperate with him?"

Fan Texi blinked, feeling inexplicably being targeted by a hunter.

Even though he knew that the company would not agree, Xiao Xiaodong still called Tan Yidong and said that Ling Ri invited him to star in "Happy Street".

After hearing that it was the script of "Happy Street", Tan Yidong naturally agreed, and praised Xiao Xiaodong for his ability to get in touch with Ling Ri, and said that this is a big IP drama. Once the good news is released, his popularity will be greatly reduced. Definitely going to another level and so on.

"Probably good intentions are rewarded. At that time, Cheng Shuang and I did not expect that the person we saved would be the King of Lantern Festival. Since you agree, Brother Tan, then I will sign the contract so that no one else will know about it." "Happy Street" is going to be filmed, and the leading actor will be snatched away by then."

"You're right, so as not to have long nights and dreams, you send me the contract, and I'll ask someone from the legal department to have a look. If there's no problem, I'll sign the contract."

"Okay, I'll ask Ling Ri to give me the contract, and I'll send it to you then." After hanging up the phone, Xiao Xiaodong made an OK gesture towards Cheng Shuang.
