Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 109 Two Similar Flowers
In the standard screening hall of Beijing Film Academy, the atmosphere was becoming a little crazy.

The cheers and applause lasted for a long time.

Who is Lin Li? Since his identity was revealed, he first announced that he would write and direct his first web drama "So Cute We Are" during the winter vacation. Not only did it receive rave reviews, it has also received nearly 48 billion views on Penguin so far, making it one of the top three dramas of the year on Penguin, with a net income of hundreds of millions.

He single-handedly made Tian Xiwei, a newcomer in the entertainment industry, into a popular young star in the circle, with her appearing on the cover of magazines and endorsing high-end brands.

During the summer vacation, I shot and completed my first movie, which I wrote, wrote, directed and starred in.

According to the current popularity online and the existing fan base of the original novel, senior practitioners in the film and television industry predict that the box office will be at least 1 billion.

It also launched the popular IP "You Are My Glory", starring Dilraba Dilmurat, a popular top star, and Zhu Yilong, a newly discovered treasure male star, and directed by the famous director Lin Yufen. It is expected to be another hit drama to be released.

At the same time, on Weibo last time, the famous actor Hu Ge also revealed that he will cooperate with Nanxun Culture on the literary masterpiece "Fang Hua", which won the Mao Dun Literature Award. With Nanxun and Hu Ge, the ruler of the TV drama field, this drama is bound to be a big hit.

It can be said that in the current film and television circles, Nanxun is a moving signboard, and Nanxun Culture’s projects are among the most popular projects in the circle.

And now, Lin Li suddenly announced that Nanxun Culture was going to launch a new project that would use young actors of their age. How could they not be excited?
Seeing how enthusiastic the audience was, Lin Li stretched out his hands to calm them down. After everyone gradually quieted down, he continued to laugh out loud.

"I didn't expect that I underestimated everyone's enthusiasm. So, in a week, our casting director from Nanxun Culture will come to Beijing Film Academy to conduct casting interviews."

"In addition to the Beijing Film Academy, we will also hold auditions at the Central Academy of Drama, the Shanghai Theatre Academy, and the Nanxun Culture Company headquarters."

"The specific role requirements will be announced on our Nanxun Culture's official website and official blog tomorrow. You can check it out then. If you think there is a role that suits you, you can sign up."

At this time, Hu Zhifeng in the audience picked up the microphone and smiled at Lin Li on the stage: "Teacher Nanxun, on behalf of the freshmen present here, let me ask, what is the name of your company's new project?"

Lin Li's gaze skipped over the faces in the audience and stopped at Zhang Jingyi's plain little face, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.

"The name of this new project is, The Sky of the Wind Dog Boy."

Zhang Jingyi, who was staring at Lin Li in the audience at this time, was also startled when she saw Lin Li's gaze. Although she was far away, she could vaguely feel that Lin Li seemed to be looking at her.

When she heard Lin Li's words, she was stunned, then ignored the screams coming from around her and became dazed.

She had also read this novel. It was not one of the most popular works by Nan Xun, but one thing was that the age of the heroine in this novel seemed very similar to her own.

Thinking of Lin Li's distant gaze just now, Zhang Jingyi felt a little hesitant.

It can’t be because of me, right?

It shouldn't be... right?

When people learned that Nanxun Culture’s new project was The Sky of Wind Dog Boys, another round of heated discussion broke out at the scene.

As freshmen at Beijing Film Academy who want to develop a career in film and television, they are very aware of the importance of the work Feng Quan.

Because this work mainly tells the story of seven protagonists in their last year of high school.

Some transferred schools to pursue love, some participated in Super Girl for their dreams, and some unfortunately lost their loved ones...

The story is set in a mountain city. Four people from Daxing Village, Lao Gou, Dalijiao, Zui Ge, and Mimi, are close friends who have grown up together. They go crazy together, make noise together, and live a fearless youth together.

Li Anran and Ma Tian were transfer students who joined the school in their senior year of high school. They and Lao Gou and the other three experienced a transformation from being unwelcome to becoming good friends. Of course, this was also because they had been through a lot of ups and downs together.

As for the reason why Li Anran and Ma Tian transferred schools, it was because Liu Wenqin, whom Anran once liked, was in Lao Gou's school.

As fate would have it, Liu Wenqin dropped out of school and entered society early. While helping An Ran find him, his best friend Lao Gou unexpectedly fell in love with her. For the sake of his brother, Lao Gou had to give up on his own initiative, which led to a series of emotional entanglements.

Obviously, this is a typical youth campus drama, and youth campus dramas naturally have young boys and girls as the protagonists.

Aren’t they just right?

All the students from Beijing Film Academy present stared at Lin Li on the stage with fiery eyes. This news was undoubtedly an important opportunity for them.

If you can pass the interview, wouldn't it be possible for you to take off on the spot like Tian Xiwei and Li Mingde?

Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm was aroused, Lin Li calmed down.

"I will provide the script for this drama, and the director will be Director Zhao Qian from Nanxun Culture. He will also be responsible for the casting of the leading actors. Anyone interested can start preparing in advance."

"Okay, that's all I have to say. I've talked enough today. We'll talk again next time we have the chance. Goodbye everyone."

He put down the microphone with a smile, and without giving the audience another chance to ask questions, he walked off the stage and returned to his seat.

Only then did the audience react and there was another round of warm applause.

Teacher Huang turned his head and asked curiously, "Did you plan this long ago, or did you just do it on impulse?"

Lin Li glanced at him and smiled elegantly: "Whether it's a sudden idea or it's something that has been planned for a long time, the fact is true. Teacher Huang, please tell me what you think."

Huang Lei was not embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed, and smiled: "I want to recommend Zi Feng, what do you think of her, Ali? Her acting skills are pretty good among the new generation, and her age is suitable too."

Lin Li smiled faintly: "Of course no problem, the company will have external interviews at that time, I will greet Zhao Qian and give him preferential treatment."

Huang Lei knew that he couldn't make a decision right away, but he still looked grateful: "Thank you very much, Ali. I'll talk to her about it later and let her prepare."

"You're welcome, Mr. Huang. It's time to prepare well. I won't be directly involved in the casting. Whether you can pass the audition depends entirely on your personal performance."

"I see. I'll explain the situation to her and ask her to pay more attention."

"Um."--

After Lin Li stepped down from the stage, the leaders of Beijing Film Academy gave an impassioned closing speech, and the freshman admission ceremony came to an end, declared over amid applause from the audience.

However, the media reporters at the scene did not leave. They waited for Lin Li to come out with excited eyes.

Unfortunately, their plan failed. Lin Li, accompanied by Hu Zhifeng and other school leaders, left the scene from the backstage under the escort of a group of security personnel.

Seeing this situation, the media had no choice but to give up and quickly return to their respective companies.

They had to write and publish the incident that Lin Li had caused today as soon as possible, in an effort to get a front-page headline.

When Wang Junkai and others saw Lin Li leaving with the school leaders, they could only leave the scene one after another in disappointment.

Zhang Jingyi pouted. Didn’t you agree to find me after it was over?
Now that Lin Liren is gone and the two of them have no contact information, how can they find her?

Zhang Jingyi stood up and walked back with an unhappy look on her face, considering whether she should follow and wait for Lin Li.

"Hey, Jingyi."

Hearing someone calling her, Zhang Jingyi subconsciously raised her head.

Seeing that it was the very enthusiastic senior Zhou Ye, she calmed down and put on a smile.

"Hello, Senior Zhou Ye, you are here too."

Zhou Ye came up with a sweet smile on his face: "Yes, I came here when I heard that Ali was coming. I didn't expect to hear such exciting news."

"Yeah, everyone here is very surprised. So are you interested too, senior? Are you ready for the audition?"

"Of course, with such a good opportunity, I have to try it. Jingyi, aren't you planning to audition?"

"I, I did want to. But I have no experience in filming, so I'm a little worried."

"Oh, there's nothing to be afraid of. We can just go there together when the time comes. Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Okay then, thank you, Senior Sister Zhou Ye."

"Oh, no thanks, we're just encouraging each other. I guess the competition will be fierce this time, but let's give it a try, what if we succeed?"

"Senior Zhou Ye is right. I'll go with you and try it."

"Yeah. Together, together."

The two of them became more and more excited as they talked, and they held each other's hands and walked out of the screening room, chatting as if they were close friends.

"Hello, is this Zhang Jingyi? Oh, Miss Zhou Ye is here too, what a coincidence."

The two people who were chatting enthusiastically were suddenly interrupted by a voice. They both looked up and saw in front of them, a woman in professional attire and with a capable appearance, standing in front of them with a smile.

"you are?"

"Sister Wen, why are you here?"

Zhang Jingyi and Zhou Ye both spoke, and then subconsciously looked at each other after hearing each other's words, both feeling a little strange.

Zhou Ye had seen Gao Wen before when he was riding in Lin Li’s car last time, but he didn’t understand why she was looking for Zhang Jingyi.

Zhang Jingyi was curious about how Zhou Ye knew this lady in professional attire with a strong aura.

"That's it, Miss Zhou Ye. Mr. Lin asked me to bring Miss Zhang Jingyi to see him. Since Miss Zhou Ye is here too, we can go together."

Gao Wen also felt quite magical when looking at the two little girls in front of her, because when Lin Li asked her to come find Zhang Jingyi, she asked if she had any contact information.

Lin Li's answer to her was, "You saw a girl who looks similar to Zhou Ye, that's her."

Now that she had seen the person, she felt that what Lin Li said was absolutely correct.

What’s even more coincidental is that Zhou Ye seems to know Zhang Jingyi. It can only be said that they are what a fate.

"Nanda allowed you to come to me?"

Zhang Jingyi raised her voice in surprise, her face full of joy.

When Zhou Ye heard that it was Lin Li who asked to see Zhang Jingyi by name, he subconsciously let go of the hand that was holding Zhang Jingyi.

Don’t Lin Li and Zhang Jingyi even have contact information?

Why would he suddenly call for her by name?

Zhou Ye felt like she seemed to have misjudged something. She originally thought that since Zhang Jingyi didn't even have Lin Li's contact information, there shouldn't be anything between them, so she let down her guard against Zhang Jingyi.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

She subconsciously turned cold and looked at Zhang Jingyi beside her.
