Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 257 - The Restless Actresses!

"This episode has a truly memorable scene?!"

Cai Yinong stared wide-eyed at the scene before her in disbelief.

In every episode, she manages to find a breaking point.

No wonder this show is so popular.

Today's special episode featuring the Tang Dynasty poets captured the intricate relationships between female celebrities in the entertainment industry very well.

Then Professor Bai saved me.

It’s just that!

When she saw the car about to fall off the cliff, she had already thought that there would definitely be some plot arrangement for the male lead to appear and save the female lead.

Isn't this the usual formula for TV dramas?!

Of course I had thought about it.

But while she could have imagined it, she never expected this kind of entrance.

Time stop
Even though it appeared once in the first episode, its reappearance brings a different feeling.

Cai Yinong snapped out of her shock and immediately turned to Li Guoli, asking, "Old Li, can you imitate this?!"

This kind of drama is really worth studying!
In terms of both plot and pacing, it can truly be called the pinnacle of the White Night script.

If Tangren could mass-produce this kind of plot arrangement, even just a few pieces would be quite impressive!

It has to be said that after watching this drama, Cai Yinong really wanted to learn this model.

Upon hearing Cai Yinong's words, Li Guoli was taken aback, clearly not expecting her to say that.

However, after realizing what he meant, a wry smile flashed across his face as he said, "Aren't you giving me a little too much credit?!"

Do you think I could write a script like this, or that Tangren's screenwriters could write one?!

What is Tangren's forte in screenwriting?! It's adaptations, isn't it? Original screenplays have always been our weakness!

Li Guoli was starting to lose his composure.

When Cai Yinong asked him this question before, he thought he had misheard.

I simply don't know how!

Even the entire Tang Dynasty would never do that!

What the Tang people excelled at, and were even quite famous for.

Whether it's the Legend of Sword and Fairy series, Scarlet Heart, or even earlier works like Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio and The Generals of the Yang Family.

These are all adaptations of the original material.

Therefore, it's simply impossible to write a script like "My Love from the Star".

The brilliance of the script for "My Love from the Star" lies in the fact that it completely breaks away from the usual formula of idol dramas.

Then there are always exciting moments in each episode, and there are always some hooks left unanswered.

It makes you want to keep watching.

"Sister K, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."

Liu Shishi weakly raised her hand, knowing that it was best not to speak at this moment.

But after thinking about it, she still felt that there were some things she had to say.

After all, I discovered this through my own observation.

"what?!"

Cai Yinong looked over curiously, clearly very interested in what Liu Shishi wanted to say.

I just asked Li Guoli, but I didn't just ask Li Guoli.

The main reason for mentioning this was to see if Liu Shishi would have any thoughts about it.

That would naturally allow Liu Shishi to contact Bai Ye.

Now it's clear that Liu Shishi has fallen for their trap.

"I watch the dramas by Bai Ye, and most of them are only about twenty episodes long. They are completely different from the dramas on the market now. That's why his dramas are so good."

I think it's not just that the ideas are very imaginative, but that it breaks away from the usual idol drama formulas, such as pregnancy, car accidents, cancer, misunderstandings, and other ridiculous things that we've all gotten tired of seeing.

More importantly, it needs to be short enough. For example, if our drama has forty or fifty episodes, we definitely need to add some filler content in the middle.

Although the show is indeed very good, it may not significantly affect the overall viewing experience.

But I think there will still be some viewers who don't want to watch it, and his drama basically explains all the plot points in twenty episodes.

Some dramas don't need to be filmed that much; just telling the main story is enough.

Liu Shishi actually did watch the TV series "White Night".

Excluding the previous ones, it only applies to TV series produced by Baiye Studio.

Basically, none of them are very long; they usually end around twenty episodes.

And it is precisely because of this tight plot that each episode explains something.

There won't be any boring, wasted time.

Is that why his dramas are so popular?!
"Well, actually everyone knows this, but..."

Li Guoli coughed lightly. Everyone wasn't stupid; of course they could see through this.

But even though you can tell, why take so many pictures?!
Then don't ask the boss!
Noticing Li Guoli's mocking gaze, Cai Yinong sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. Each episode costs hundreds of thousands or even millions."

I keep thinking, with so few episodes of *White Night*, how much money did they miss out on?

After Liu Shishi said those words, Cai Yinong was also somewhat heartbroken.

TV dramas are sold episode by episode.

The price per episode is not low; missing one episode means losing hundreds of thousands or even millions, not to mention that it's not just one run.

Like "My Love from the Star," it costs two million per episode. If they could make twenty more episodes, that would be forty million!
Of course, Cai Yinong also knew very well that she should just think about it and let it go.

If they had actually filmed twenty more episodes, the price probably wouldn't have been so high.

But Cai Yinong wasn't wrong either.

Everyone is very familiar with the production model of TV dramas in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Everyone knows the script is padded, but what can you do? To make more money, you have to padded it, right?

But the White Night mode is indeed very powerful.

It only has about twenty episodes, and the plot is very tight. Every season has received rave reviews.

"Well, Sister K, there's nothing I can do about this. After all, I'm not familiar with scripts!"

In any case, Liu Shishi only expressed her own thoughts.

As for what Cai Yinong was thinking, that was none of my business.

After all, he didn't know anything about scripts.

"Shishi, didn't you ever think about poaching someone else's husband?!"

"what?!"

Liu Shishi was stunned for a moment after hearing Cai Yinong's words.

no! ?
What do you mean by "did you ever think about poaching someone else's partner?"
Moreover, the surrounding area is...
Liu Shishi, thinking there were other people around, subconsciously looked at them, but after Cai Yinong said those words, the others...

He then seemed lost in thought, as if he hadn't heard what Cai Yinong was saying at all.

They're all shrewd people; of course they know that what Cai Yinong was talking about was trying to steal Yang Mi's boyfriend!

If Liu Shishi really could steal someone else's boyfriend...

What kind of scripts does Tangren need to dig up?!
Seeing that no one else seemed inclined to say anything,

Liu Shishi was also somewhat helpless. She sighed and said, "Sister K, how am I supposed to face people like this?!"

"That's just how it is in the industry! Yang Mi can stand up for you even though you're his ex-girlfriend, so what are you worried about?! Once you're married, they can say whatever they want!"

The best things in this industry are always snapped up!
You don't care what means you use to steal it, you just have to take action!
"Just like with 'My Love from the Star' this time, if you and Bai Ye were still together, do you really think Yang Mi would get the female lead role?!"

I think you are well aware that the script will definitely have to go through you first.

When you see the script for "My Love from the Star," you'll definitely act in it. Then everything that belongs to Yang Mi now will belong to you, right?
Whether you want to take it or not, it's just a matter of saying one thing. If you really just stand by and watch Bai Ye and Yang Mi continue like this, then I have nothing more to say!

Cai Yinong was at her wit's end.

I've made myself quite clear.

Should we try to snatch it?

She felt that Liu Shishi needed to think things through.

Still a beat behind, just like before?!
At that point, it might really be the end for us!

After hearing Cai Yinong's words, Liu Shishi did indeed experience some inner struggle.

She knew that Cai Yinong was absolutely right when she said that.

Ultimately, if I don't fight for anything now, I might end up with nothing at all.

Just as Cai Yinong said.

If I hadn't broken up with Bai Ye, neither the Legend of Chu and Han nor My Love from the Star that I had worked with Bai Ye on before would have mattered.

Everyone can now see just how much these two dramas boosted Yang Mi's career.

These were originally his own!
Although I had a cameo role, a cameo role and a lead role are completely different concepts.

It's impossible to say that you have absolutely no thoughts in your heart.

Liu Shishi was genuinely a little jealous.

So when Cai Yinong said she wanted to rob it, she actually thought about actually taking action to rob it.

Instead of continuing to wait foolishly here.

If I keep waiting foolishly, what if I actually wait until Bai Ye and Yang Mi's relationship gets better and better? Wouldn't I be a fool?!

but
The sentence I said to Bai Ye in the past.

Instead, it became something that bound me!
She had initially planned to wait for Bai Ye to mature, hoping he would settle down and that she would show him how magnanimous she was. She admitted that she had indeed been a little blinded by love back then.

I was mainly immersing myself in the character of Shen Jiayi at the time.

The thought that I might end up like Shen Jiayi and Ke Jingteng made me think that I should wait for the time being.

But now, Liu Shishi really wanted to slap herself hard.

What was I thinking back then?!

You let the opportunity slip by, and now look what happened!
It's too late for me to regret it now.

"Shishi, sometimes, although it doesn't sound good to outsiders and the methods are a bit unethical, you see, whether it's inside or outside the circle."

How many times have people resorted to all sorts of means to seize resources and valuable items?
As long as you can grab it, at least you'll get something good, even if you can't grab it at all.

After that, you can finally give up completely, right?!
It's better than wasting time here.

Cai Yinong patiently and earnestly persuaded her.

She actually wanted to use Liu Shishi to keep Bai Ye in check, so that Bai Ye Studio and Tangren would cooperate more closely.

Then I can arrange for Tangren artists to participate in the White Night project.

Bai Ye's studio doesn't have many people yet, but Tangren has recruited quite a few new people and is eagerly awaiting project resources!
If they could cooperate with Bai Ye, it would be very beneficial for the Tang people. There was no reason not to persuade Liu Shishi.

As for the fact that it sounds bad when people talk about it!?
As we've discussed, all the speculations about Bai Ye and Yang Mi right now are just that—speculation. There's no concrete evidence yet, and neither of them has made an official announcement.

So what if we snatch it now?!

Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi was instantly tempted.

It has to be said that this is really a good thing, but to do it, we should at least wait until Bai Ye breaks up with his girlfriend.

But he couldn't very well go up and ask Bai Ye when he was going to break up with Yang Mi, could he?!

No way
"Okay, I was just saying. As for how to do it specifically, that's up to you!"

Cai Yinong also knew what it meant to stop when you've made your point.

I've said everything I needed to say about this matter.

Whether Liu Shishi should do that or not is up to her.

"Oh, by the way, remember to post something on Weibo later. We need to ride the wave of tonight's trending topic!"

Although I had already forwarded it before.

However, after this episode aired, it did generate a lot of buzz.

So Liu Shishi will continue to take advantage of this opportunity.

"Whoever gets cast in this drama, becomes a star!"

Liu Xiaoli was somewhat moved.

After watching these two episodes, she finally understood why Bai Ye was called the "Midas Touch" of the Chinese entertainment industry.

As long as it involves cooperation with Bai Ye.

Basically, all of them can be carried to success.

If my own daughter were to star in this drama.
Liu Xiaoli had many thoughts on her mind at this moment, but she was also very clear about one thing: if this drama were to be offered to Liu Yifei, she would most likely have to refuse it.

At this time, she really didn't want Liu Yifei to act in TV dramas, because in her eyes, that would be a disgrace.

However, after "My Love from the Star," Liu Xiaoli's opinion changed somewhat.

If it's a collaboration with Baiye, perhaps it's worth considering?
But you have to be comparable to Star You to be worthy of it.

Otherwise, any TV series would simply be wasting Liu Yifei's popularity.

"So, godmother, I told you long ago that cooperating with Bai Ye would definitely be very beneficial. In fact, if Qianqian were to cooperate with him, the mere release of that news would probably crash Weibo!"

Shu Chang quickly said at this moment.

In her view, as long as Liu Yifei chooses to cooperate with Bai Ye.

Then get ready for social media to explode!
After all, there was a lot of public demand for the two to collaborate before.

"Mom, didn't you contact the other person before?!"

If Liu Yifei remembered correctly, her mother seemed to have discussed a collaboration with Bai Ye's side before!
But it seems he was rejected?!

Liu Yifei was actually a little embarrassed.

After all, they had taken the initiative to seek cooperation, but Bai Ye actually refused.

"Actually, it was just a preliminary contact, and besides, we weren't very sincere at the time. Next time, I'll approach them with sincerity and see how it goes!"

Liu Xiaoli also noticed the slight expression on Liu Yifei's face.

How could a mother not understand what her daughter is thinking?!
It's just that there's some underlying resentment, isn't it?!
It doesn’t matter!

He was giving Liu Yifei a way out, especially since he had approached Bai Ye back then, and from that perspective...

She really wasn't very sincere.

But who could have imagined this?!
The results of "My Love from the Star" were probably something no one in the industry could have imagined would be this incredible!
"Mom, I think we should forget about it. If they really find someone suitable, they'll definitely come looking for me."

As Liu Yifei spoke, her voice grew softer and softer, clearly indicating that she herself was losing confidence.

She felt that if she didn't take the initiative...

There are plenty of people who take the initiative!

"Don't worry about this; just leave it to me!!!"

Liu Xiaoli waved her hand dismissively, deciding not to let Liu Yifei deal with it anymore.

If we look at it from Liu Yifei's Buddhist-like personality...

There's a high chance you'll never have the chance!

So I'll leave this to myself.

At the same time, she also reminded Liu Yifei that they should definitely interact with each other later.

First, get acquainted with Bai Ye. Now that we've collaborated, there will be plenty of opportunities to co-star next time!

After failing to impress Bai Ye twice, Liu Xiaoli was genuinely envious.

"Fight!!! I want to fight ten of them right now!!!"

Yang Mi is currently riding high; she feels like she's about to become incredibly famous!

Female celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry are not just capable of taking on ten opponents!

Even your own fans need to fight ten of them!!
"Jia-jie, get the press releases ready right away! Starting tonight, I'm going to outshine all the female stars!!!"

On Yang Mi's side, everyone is full of energy!
Yang Mi, in particular, is very ambitious.

She's going to outshine everyone after tonight!

Let everyone know how powerful I am!
In the past, it was always Liu Yifei who outshone everyone else, Fan Shuangbing who outshone everyone else, and so on. I was always just a background figure!

it's good now!

I finally have a chance to outshine everyone else!

After tonight, she will not allow anyone to raise their voice at her!

Press release!!!

Issue a massive press release!!!

"Why?! And why is Yang Mi chosen this time?! If I were in this drama, I definitely wouldn't do a worse job than Yang Mi!!!"

Zhao Liying's eyes flickered, her face full of resentment!
She has been watching "My Love from the Star" ever since it aired, and she has not only been watching the show, but also keeping up with the online discussions.

The more she looked, the more jealous she became!
What does the popularity of this drama have to do with Yang Mi?
I offended Yang Mi's fans last time because of something, and now they're relentlessly attacking me.

At that moment, she couldn't help but reply, "The relationship between the two families isn't very good right now!"
She also knew very well that after "My Love from the Star," she could no longer compete with Yang Mi!

Why! ?
Why doesn't Bai Ye look for me?

She doesn't think she's much worse than Yang Mi in this drama. As long as Bai Ye looks for her, she's willing to give anything!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but want to go find Bai Ye!

no! ! !

She had to do something to win Bai Ye back!
"Uncle Lu, I've finished my studies now. Do you think I should talk to Bai Ye about this?"

Jing Tian stared longingly at Lu Zheng, a sudden wave of frustration washing over her.

If she had the role in "My Love from the Star," she thinks she would have become a top-tier actress.

She had been studying all this time, specifically in preparation for her future collaboration with Bai Ye.

Who could have imagined that the world would change so much?

They've only been studying for a short time, why do they all seem so ready to ascend to immortality?

She's incredibly restless right now.

If I keep studying like this, I might completely fail in a while!

Fortunately, I've finished learning it now.

She hesitated, wondering whether she should send the message to Bai Ye to let him know.

In other words, you're telling Bai Ye that if possible, he should also consider you?

"Sure, you can talk to Bai Ye!"

That's outrageous!
After Lu Zheng finished speaking, he felt a surge of emotion.

He had no reason to stop Jing Tian from doing what he was going to do.

Just as Jing Tian said, if this drama were cast, her status would probably be no less than that of the Great Tang Poet Immortal, and might even surpass her in a short period of time!
At this point, Jing Tian's popularity had already decreased considerably.

Those who previously sought Jing Tian's scripts will probably now turn to the Tang Dynasty Poet Immortal.

Because Jing Tian hasn't been getting much attention lately, while the other person has been getting a lot of attention.

Given that Yang Mi is also in "My Love from the Star," Yang Mi would definitely be the first choice.

At this time, it's perfectly fine for Jing Tian to go find Bai Ye!
