Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 104 - Xiao Zhao regrets breaking up with him!
Regarding the script, thanks to Chen Daoming's approval and Gao Xixi's belief that the script shouldn't be cut too much in the later stages, things are looking good.

A storyline with over eighty episodes can still be quite profitable if it can stay above seventy episodes.

The only one that will likely be affected is the Princess route.

After all, this storyline had quite a lot of screen time in the early stages, and it was Gao Xixi who added the scenes herself.

But nobody cares anymore.

The screenwriter wants to reclaim his rights, while Bai Ye and Chen Daoming want the script to be improved.

Chen Daoming is indifferent to winning awards; he'll take whatever he can get. At his level, he doesn't care about awards on television anymore.

Bai Ye wanted to win an award.

If the goal of making historical dramas isn't to win awards, then they might as well make idol dramas instead.

Gao Xixi, on the other hand, wanted to make money.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Bai Ye, Chen Daoming, and Wang Hailin exchanged contact information.

The four of them said goodbye in a hurry.

Everyone has things on their plate, especially the screenwriter, who has a lot on his plate.

"Let's keep in touch. Once it's revised, I'll show you the script first!"

Wang Hailin was also quite polite to Bai Ye.

Although Bai Ye pointed out many flaws here, they were indeed some experimental problems.

Some of them could be attributed to Gao Xixi's problems.

After all, Gao Xixi revised a lot of the plot, but many of the experimental mistakes were indeed due to her own oversight.

If it's filmed according to the script, it'll probably be ridiculed by everyone.

Therefore, pointing it out now is much better than discovering it later.

Wang Hailin will go back and revise the script, and it is estimated that the script will be fine-tuned soon.

Once you've confirmed everything is okay, send it to the director and the two lead actors.

"No problem, but you can make the changes yourself. Actually, I'm not very good at this."

Bai Ye did not refuse.

A preliminary agreement was reached, and after Gao Xixi confirmed the script revisions, Bai Ye signed the contract.

He would naturally review the revisions afterward, and as long as they weren't too excessive, he wouldn't say anything more.

Gao Xixi actually made one correct statement.

An actor frequently revising the script will make both the director and the screenwriter unhappy.

Even Bai Ye, when he wrote those scripts, actually disliked others revising them.

In the end, I still ended up becoming the kind of person I hated.

When I'm writing a script, I hate it when others make changes. But when it comes to other people's scripts, I really want to make changes, just like how drivers curse pedestrians and pedestrians curse drivers.

Get in the car.

As Lin Wan drove, she remarked with some emotion, "I was really startled when you mentioned that just now."

As she spoke, she unconsciously recalled Bai Ye's earlier remarks about revising the script.

Although it wasn't said directly, the meaning was very clear.

If we don't make any changes, then we won't perform.

This almost scared Lin Wan to death.

Fortunately, neither Gao Xixi nor Chen Daoming lost their temper. These two have a much higher status in the industry than Bai Ye.

"It's normal. The suggestions I gave were very pertinent. It wasn't like I was just adding more scenes for myself and then being dissatisfied with my screen time. I was just pointing out the loopholes and flaws in the script."

That's why they agreed; otherwise, I'd be stupid enough to directly suggest revising the script!

Bai Ye curled his lip. "Is there even a question?"
It was clearly their own suggestion, and they had no reason to refuse.

Who wouldn't want this TV series to be better?

You can use your fame to scam one group after another.

However, if the first run doesn't go well, unless it becomes a huge hit like Chinese Paladin 3, it will be difficult to sell at a high price in the second or third run.

Moreover, although the Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 was released later.

But their reputation speaks for itself. If the premiere ratings weren't high, it depends on who they're compared to.

Compared to mythology, it is indeed not high.

However, compared to other films and television dramas of the same period, it is already quite high.

"That's true." Lin Wan nodded, then asked, "Are you really going to use this drama to compete for awards?"

In fact, awards sometimes depend not only on your ability, but also on connections.

If you don't have connections, then no matter how well you act, you probably won't get it.

However, if Bai Ye can win the Best Actor award, it will greatly help his future development.

Whether an actor has won awards or not, it at least represents whether they have received recognition.

"Why not give it a try? Who knows? Otherwise, do you really think my youth dramas are good enough for me to win awards? Those award judges usually don't even look at those kinds of dramas, right?"

It lacks depth.

In their eyes, that's what teen idol dramas are all about.

Generally speaking, period dramas and historical dramas tend to win more awards.

After all, these dramas themselves are biased towards award preferences.

He didn't have high expectations; he'd take it if he could, and let it go if he couldn't.

If not, just rely on popularity to break into the top tier. Once you've reached a certain level of fame, whether you win awards or not won't really matter.

"Indeed, although I think the best of us and someday are of good quality, it is basically impossible to win an award."

Lin Wan also agreed with this statement.

"By the way, I've coordinated with Tangren Media about the rest of the story. It's estimated that Liu Shishi will be joining the cast in the next couple of days. Director Lin also said that he wants to discuss the script with you later."

"So what if I'm on set? Why are you staring at me like that?!"

Bai Ye glanced at Lin Wan with a strange look.

The look in their eyes.
Is there some doubt about something?!
"What do you think?" Lin Wan pursed her lips, then continued, "And what about Zhao Liying? What are you going to do about her?!"

On one hand, it was filming a movie with his ex-girlfriend.

It's inevitable that people might reminisce about the past, especially since it's a youth drama.

Lin Wan was worried about this.

Although Zhao Liying's marketing seems to be getting increasingly excessive, judging from Bai Ye's expression, it seems that they are also preparing to break up.

But they haven't broken up yet, what if he gets together with Liu Shishi like this?

This is like planting a landmine for yourself.

"Sister Lin, you can rest assured. How could I let you worry? I know what I'm doing. As for Xiao Zhao, I'll find a chance to break up with her."

Bai Ye has also been looking at these photos recently, and many of them are actually photos posted by Zhao Liying.

Many of the photos could not actually have been taken by people from the film crew.

Of course, there won't be any photos like that.

The photos, though somewhat suggestive, create an ambiguous atmosphere.

Zhao Liying knows how to handle it.

In the past few days, when she called him, she also seemed to be testing Bai Ye's intentions.

At first, Bai Ye thought about explaining things to her so that she could understand him.

However, the more Bai Ye talked, the more it seemed to bring the two of them to the brink of an argument.

Zhao Liying's meaning is also quite clear.

Why is it that Jing Tian and Liu Shishi are a good match?

The two of them had little to do with Bai Ye, but they still managed to reap so much benefit from marketing together with him.

As her girlfriend, she just wanted people to know, instead of seeing people online every day talking about how Bai Ye and Liu Shishi or Jing Tian are a couple!

"Hesitation only leads to more trouble. If you're going to break up, do it sooner rather than later, before you join the film crew."

Lin Wan offered a reminder, and her assistant, who was also listening intently, chimed in. Gossip!

Another piece of gossip!
Moreover, it seems that Bai Ye is going to break up with Zhao Liying.

Actually, the assistant also had a deep impression of Zhao Liying.

That ambitious girl, even the assistant could tell at a glance that Zhao Liying was no pushover.

No matter how well it's hidden, you can still see some of that ambition.

However, the assistant knew that she should just listen to the gossip and not get involved in such matters.

She just wanted to be a quiet, gossipy assistant.

Thinking that Bai Ye is going to break up with Zhao Liying, will he rekindle his old feelings with Liu Shishi on the set of "Those Years"?

Thinking of this, the assistant inexplicably felt a little excited.

"Sister Lin, let's talk about it when I get back. I'll take care of it before I join the crew."

"Well, I believe you."

Lin Wan stopped talking after she finished speaking.

Bai Ye has already gone this far, and besides, Bai Ye has never had any major problems in his conduct and dealings with others.

Bai Ye has been in the industry for a while now, and Lin Wan has watched him grow step by step. He has matured a lot since he was a bit naive at the beginning.

Back in the apartment, I closed the door.

Bai Ye leaned back on the sofa, stared at the ceiling for a while, and finally took out his phone to call Zhao Liying.

He knew that it was almost time to break up.

I had spoken with Zhao Liying several times before, but the more we talked, the more I felt that she seemed to be caught in a strange cycle.

Bai Ye didn't want to continue.

It's time to break up.

"white night?"

"Um"

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Liying was applying a face mask. Listening to Bai Ye's slightly low voice, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

In the past few days, Zhao Liying has realized that she has actually been acting a bit too much.

In truth, whether in terms of status or anything else, I am inferior to Bai Ye; I am the one who depends on Bai Ye.

But perhaps because they had been together for some time, Zhao Liying gradually regained some of her assertive personality traits.

Even though she was in a weaker position, she still wanted to control Bai Ye and bring him into her hands.

So these past few days, although Zhao Liying has been somewhat entangled with Bai Ye, it's also because Zhao Liying wants to see if she can really win Bai Ye over.

Moreover, what makes her somewhat upset is that she is clearly his girlfriend.

Why can't I use the "White Night" concept to boost my fame a little?

Seeing Bai Ye's scandals with other women every day made her very unhappy.

At first, she might have thought that Bai Ye had told her, and that's why she could tolerate it.

However, as the two became closer and their relationship improved, he found it increasingly difficult to tolerate the situation.

But now, Zhao Liying admits that she is starting to panic.

Judging from Bai Ye's tone, Zhao Liying had a feeling that he was about to break up with her.

The tug-of-war broke down?

Thinking about this, she suddenly felt a little regretful. If she had admitted her mistake earlier, things might not have turned out this way.

But she still forced herself to stay calm and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Have you been too tired from editing lately? I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made you angry before!"

Even knowing that their previous efforts might fail because of what they say today.

But Zhao Liying was also very clear that if she didn't admit her mistake at this point, she might be completely eliminated.

So she could only lower her head.

Besides, I have indeed had a lot of problems during this period.

"Xiao Zhao, actually, I've thought about it, and I think we might not be a good match, so I'm thinking..."

"Wait a minute." Before Bai Ye could finish speaking, Zhao Liying interrupted him. She took a deep breath and immediately continued, "Bai Ye, I'll come find you now."

I think we should meet and have a good talk. I admit that I've been feeling really off lately.

But I was also a little jealous. You're my boyfriend, but every day I see and hear about how well you and so-and-so match, so I definitely felt uneasy.

Don't worry, I'll definitely manage to regulate my emotions afterward, okay?

Zhao Liying really didn't want to break up.

His status, appearance, popularity, and resources are all excellent.

Zhao Liying felt that if she lost Bai Ye, it would be difficult to find someone who was excellent in every way.

She admitted that she hadn't quite mastered flying a kite recently.

"Xiao Zhao, you know that the reason we broke up wasn't this. I've already told you about your publicity stunts before. It was because of the airing of two dramas."

In addition, my popularity wasn't particularly high at that time, so I needed to create hype. But if I continue to create hype now, doing it three times in a year, it won't be good for my popularity.

I told you I'd make an announcement once things stabilized, but as for you, Xiao Zhao, I think that's enough. Anything beyond that will probably just lead to arguments.

After Bai Ye finished speaking, he felt somewhat helpless.

Every time I say goodbye, I feel like I feel guilty.
Maybe we shouldn't break up in person in the future.
and many more? !
How come you're already thinking about breaking up before you've even started a new relationship?

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Liying was also silent for a while.

She knew that Bai Ye had probably seriously considered breaking up.

Having spent a lot of time with Bai Ye, I've come to realize that although he may seem impulsive at times, once he's made a decision, he'll follow it without any further hesitation.

"Bai Ye, do we really have to break up over this?! I admit I had some ulterior motives, but I just wanted to become more famous, and I was careful about what I said."

"That's why we can sit here and talk calmly now, isn't it?!"

"."

Zhao Liying knew that this meant they were definitely going to break up.

Bai Ye also knew that if they were to break up in the future, it would be easier to do so in a simpler way. If it was difficult to say it directly, then they should try a different approach.

Otherwise, this kind of breakup feels like something out of a Korean drama.

In the end, Zhao Liying couldn't find a reason, and after struggling several times, she finally agreed to break up.

She knew that she couldn't hold onto Bai Ye anymore.

It's a bit of a pity that Bai Ye got away like that.

Looking back now, Zhao Liying actually felt a bit regretful.

"Break up?!"

Hao Ru felt somewhat embarrassed.

This marketing idea was my own, but I never expected it would cause the two of them to break up.

What is this? !
"Hmm, that was a bit too much. I don't think we should have moved so quickly before, and..."

The PUA (Pick-Up Artist) tactics didn't work; they just let the other person run away.

At this moment, Xiao Zhao was also reviewing his previous actions.

As I thought about it, I realized that I had been too hasty before.

Just like Bai Ye said, there's still time later; she's just too eager to become famous.

Moreover, in the subsequent struggle with Bai Ye, he completely failed, and the other party simply ran away.

Even self-inflicted psychological manipulation is not as good as psychological manipulation.

Breaking up over the phone may seem hasty, but it's definitely a way to end things.

If they met in real life, Zhao Liying would kiss Bai Ye directly when he was about to break up, and then she would give herself to him.

I wouldn't let Bai Ye say those words, but now that she's not by my side, we broke up without me even realizing it.

What a huge decision-making blunder!!!
