Chapter 35 The Three-Day Term Has Arrived
Yu Wei was persuaded by Qi Luoan.
Why does it seem to make so much sense...?
Rather than suggesting he was ordained by heaven and possessed extraordinary abilities, it seems more convincing to say he was simply a "psychopath."
Logically speaking, Yu Wei should be glad that his cheating wasn't detected, but the claim of "deliberately fabricating history" really made him unhappy.
How could he deliberately torment the readers? Failing to win a game simply because of a lack of skill, can that be called deliberate?
But Yu Weizhen really couldn't refute it. It's like taking a serious exam and getting a single-digit score. If the teacher says you didn't have a proper attitude and wrote something carelessly, you can only try to get away with it.
What else? Admit you're a complete novice?
It's like if you finish in three seconds and your wife asks if you did it on purpose, then you can only say it was on purpose.
What else? Admit you're incapable?
"Haha, you discovered all this."
Qi Luoan remained noncommittal; it was all because she had glanced at Yu Wei's novel in the book group and commented "history."
A professional historian must be bold in making judgments.
"By the way, since you're at school, do you have enough time for filming?"
Yu Wei chose to change the subject casually, saying that Qi Luoan was not like these celebrities; going to school was her top priority.
Summer vacation is coming soon.
"So your class this afternoon is... pre-exam Q&A, right?"
Qi Luoan nodded. This guy is really a college graduate. He can skip regular classes, but he can't skip the pre-exam Q&A sessions.
"After you finish your last exam tomorrow, I can work for you for free in the afternoon."
She emphasized the words "working for free," and her gaze towards Yu Wei held a hint of resentment. While others were working part-time during summer vacation, she was working overtime without pay.
This gives you a taste of the current employment situation for college graduates.
Qi Luoan only agreed to help Yu Wei film something during the summer vacation. If it were during the school term, her roommates would kill her if they saw the short film and music video.
As for next semester, let's talk about that next semester.
After saying goodbye to Qi Luoan, Yu Wei met with MV director Lü Zhou at the company. Lü Zhou was a middle-aged man with a beard and black-rimmed glasses. He had an ordinary appearance but was in good spirits.
"Teacher Yu, it's a pleasure to work with you!"
This is the second time Yu Wei has been called "teacher." These days, anyone can call themselves a teacher...
"Nice to meet you, Professor Lü."
The filming plan was discussed very smoothly, especially after hearing that Yu Wei wanted to film some things that reflected her personal interests, which Lü Zhou greatly appreciated.
"Young people should have artistic pursuits. Take pictures, whatever you want to take pictures of, we will take pictures of."
His face showed no reverence for art, only a desire to take on more orders and earn more money...
Yu Wei was quite satisfied with this point. People always have to want something, especially when discussing cooperation. People who are interested in money and profit are easier to talk to.
Those who aren't after money or fame are the real troublemakers; people's hearts are unpredictable. Take Qi Luo'an, for example—Yu Wei doesn't even know what she's after...
It couldn't be him, could it?
……
"Don't you want to introduce me?"
On the day of the music video recording, Zhang Lingye fell into deep thought as he watched Qi Luoan chatting happily and behaving intimately with Yu Wei.
He seemed to recall that afternoon when they were practicing dancing on stage, while Yu Wei was typing away in the corner.
Everyone joked that this guy was up to something, but it turned out to be true?
"Just call me An'an, we're just friends."
Ordinary friends? Do ordinary friends ever look at each other's phones together? He could practically picture them reminiscing about sweet moments they'd shared, with only the warmth and heartbeats of their close proximity remaining...
He couldn't envy Yu Wei's rise to fame through talent, but he truly envied this!
As an idol, let alone having a girlfriend, he'd get attacked by female fans if he even chatted with a female guest a few extra words on a TV show...
But Yu Wei, who only became popular after the group disbanded, is different. His fan base is relatively rational, with most of them being music fans.
In reality, Qi Luoan was just looking at the novel data on Yu Wei's phone and mocked him after witnessing his failure once again.
After the clickbait titles misled readers, Yu Wei has been temporarily abandoned by them. Each new chapter only receives a few comments, mostly just "offering incense" and "paying respects," which shows how much hatred they harbor. Those who betray their trust deserve to be punished.
Zhang Lingye didn't know who Qi Luoan was, but Qi Luoan knew him all too well...
"The most useful characters used to be relegated to the bottom tier due to numerical inflation."
Previously, Zhang Lingye was her "weapon against Qi Yuan," essentially a tool to step on her older brother. However, Qi Yuan eventually surpassed her, so she stopped using that role.
Now, I'm just a warehouse manager; I'm not familiar with the job.
Yu Wei understood Qi Luo'an's unspoken meaning: while others were already creating nuclear bombs with their bare hands, Zhang Lingye was still just launching heads...
The original plan for the MV was to bring in Hong Hui to fill in, but unfortunately the sound supervisor was too busy to get away, and there were other artists in the company who also had to do the recording work.
However, the role was not a big deal, and in the end, director Lü Zhou decided to take it himself, which helped Yu Wei out of his predicament.
The director is working two jobs; he should be the one making the money...
The actual filming of the music video was more difficult than expected because Yu Wei, the male lead, was really too inexperienced; he would burst out laughing even with just a simple glance.
"you?"
Qi Luoan, who acted opposite him, was completely dumbfounded. How could he have the nerve to audition his own acting skills if he wasn't at this level?
Even her amateur acting skills, which she's neglected for eight years, are better than this guy's.
"Sorry sorry."
Yu Wei is indeed an amateur in this regard. He has a perfect grasp of the song "Hear the Sound of Rain," but that doesn't include the music video of the same name.
Mastering songs naturally revolves around the music, while acting skills in film and television require additional pay.
However, Yu Wei didn't care much. The music video didn't require much acting skills. He could get it right after a few tries. He wasn't afraid of the later short films.
So what if he's good at laning? He's great at team fights.
Thus, he successfully slowed down the filming progress single-handedly. Zhang Lingye and Lü Zhou dared not speak out against him, while only Qi Luoan would occasionally make sarcastic remarks.
"Don't you laugh out loud when you watch your own performance?"
"Your acting skills are worse than my neighbor's dishwasher."
"If you keep acting like this, I'll have someone take care of you."
Three days passed in a flash. On the day the MV wrapped up, Yu Wei even felt like she had been through a lifetime. Being a pretty face isn't easy, especially when your colleagues don't tolerate you.
However, he also learned a lot, which is real personal practical experience, a breakthrough from 0 to 1.
After filming the music video, Qi Luoan suddenly felt that he had aged considerably...
Yu Wei is an amateur, which is understandable, but the key is that Zhang Lingye and director Lü Zhou are also surprisingly incompetent. She is actually the most professional person on the entire set. Who would believe it?
How could someone at the third stage of Dou Qi mistakenly enter the realm of mortals?
What's even more painful is that the nightmare has only just begun; the music video is just a warm-up, and an even more challenging suspenseful short film is yet to come...
"Holy crap, that's awesome."
After reading the script, Zhang Lingye was amazed. Even though he didn't understand the deeper aspects, the plot alone was enough to capture his attention.
I don't know what's wrong with my buddy's brain. It's one thing to write good songs, but how come he can write such amazing stories too?
Could it be that love can unlock potential? Maybe he should give it a try?
The story was so captivating that Zhang Lingye was excited for a long time before suddenly remembering that he had only played a corpse...
Director Lü Zhou makes a cameo appearance as the male lead's boss, while the role of the blind male lead, who pretends to be blind, is naturally left to Yu Wei.
"This role, you..."
It's not that they questioned Yu Wei, but rather that his behavior these past few days has been too outrageous. Playing a blind male lead is difficult enough, let alone pretending to be blind.
Playing a blind person is the first level; playing a blind person becomes the second level. Not only do you have to portray the side of the character that he cannot see, but you also have to portray his scheming and dark side as someone who pretends to know everything.
This kind of nuanced performance is something that even seasoned actors might struggle to grasp, let alone newcomers. Can Yu Wei pull it off?
Yu Wei remained silent, but quietly took out his sunglasses and put them on. He tentatively reached out his hands cautiously, his movements even showing slight hesitation.
The three-day period has ended! It's time for his performance.
Qi Luoan, who was standing next to him, saw it clearly. He even acted it out with his eyes. Not only was his gaze unfocused, but he also controlled his blinking very well.
Blind people require less physical activity, and given his appearance, one might mistake him for someone who is truly blind.
The acting was so good?
Seeing Yu Wei's careful movements and trembling fingertips, Qi Luoan casually took out a fifty-cent coin and stuffed it into his hand.
