Have you ever been a celebrity? Why are you writing about entertainment?

Chapter 51 The pen is yours, you take it.
Never type on a plane, and don't ask Yu Wei how she knows...

High concentration can easily cause dizziness and blurred vision, but it wasn't that serious for him. He only experienced slight tinnitus during the flight, and he didn't write much over the several hours.

In the novel, the "Singer-Songwriter" competition is still ongoing. After two more rounds, the second half of the season will begin, and the protagonist can move on to a new storyline before returning for the finals.

Yu Wei plans to keep updating and try to finish writing the storylines for these two songs during the recording of "Beyond Class", and then redeem them in advance and save them.

Writing things down and using them immediately is too rigid; it's never a bad thing to keep a few cards up your sleeve.

He plans to decide on the topics for this competition when recording the show. He can write about whoever he encounters on the spot, which will save him a lot of trouble.

He simply couldn't believe that none of the guests on the show had ever sung before.

The filming location for "Beyond Class" is a film and television base in Beijing, which is also a gathering place for many extras who have come to Beijing to work. Yu Wei has also read many entertainment novels that start here.

Beginning: Extras; Climax: Number one in film history; Ending: Reaching the top globally.

Unlike other reality shows, this show doesn't have a welcome segment. Each episode features four production teams, and interested actors can audition on their own.

The guest introductions were all brief; the main focus was on the casting process and the mentors' comments.

The young people and veteran actors invited to this show are mostly not good actors. The show focuses on their cringeworthy acting skills and the mentors' unbearable performances, resulting in many memorable moments.

The production team is definitely happy that Yu Weineng is coming. He has been very popular lately, and he can make it to the trending topics every now and then. He is definitely a hot topic generator.

With him joining the show, it's easy to imagine how popular this episode will be.

"Teacher Yu, you can go to Director Qi's side first. The students are more concentrated there, so you can get to know them before we talk."

"Okay, but please don't call me teacher anymore."

It's one thing for peers to flatter you, but this cameraman looks to be in his forties or fifties, and he keeps calling you "teacher." Can you handle that?

It's hard not to suspect that the production team did this on purpose, since his live stream with Qi Yuan was quite popular and set a record for the platform's popularity that month.

Is this an attempt to generate some off-stage buzz?
Qi Yunming filmed an indoor scene with a simple setting and distinct characters, making it a relatively easy type of scene to film.

In addition, the director is quite easygoing and doesn't criticize people much, which is why the trainees made this their first choice.

The competition is fierce...

Yu Wei could see a group of artists eager to try their hand at acting around the film set from afar. Some of them had already formed teams to audition, while the vast majority were still observing.

The main problem is that the competition here is too fierce. Choosing three people out of a dozen is too costly to make a trial and error, and they haven't made up their minds yet.

There are also sex scenes?
This wasn't a corpse scene he arranged for Zhang Lingye; it was a real scene of being caught in bed with another man, though there weren't many details.

After learning about the details, Yu Wei went over and greeted the trainees.

Although they didn't understand why Yu Wei wanted to learn acting, his fame and ability were undeniable, so they were all incredibly enthusiastic.

Teacher Yu, please look at me more!
Amidst the constant compliments of "teacher," he unexpectedly encountered a familiar face: Chi Leying standing in the corner, holding a script and clearly memorizing her lines.

Judging from the timing, "HELLO Roommate" should have just finished filming not long ago, so the fact that she can seamlessly transition into a new variety show shows just how good her resources are.

This is the real prince.

Chi Leying didn't seem too surprised to see him. She just nodded to him from a distance before taking the initiative to come over and start a conversation.

Although only a little over a month had passed, in Chi Leying's eyes, Yu Wei had completely changed. Especially the appearance of that book shattered her idealized image of Yu Wei.

Last time, she always thought Yu Wei was an artist with the stars and the sea in his heart, but it turned out that he was hiding chapter after chapter of corny and silly little plots.

It's not that there's anything wrong with it, it's just... very contrasting.

She couldn't understand this person at all, so she simply gave up trying to outsmart him. Since she couldn't figure him out anyway, she might as well treat him normally. "You want to enter the film industry?"

Chi Leying's question is one that many people want to ask. After all, Yu Weicai has just made a name for himself, and there is absolutely no need for him to learn new skills at this time.

Even if he has no acting skills, once he becomes famous, people will naturally come to him to make films. Why go to such lengths?

"I'm here to gather information."

Others find it difficult to cross boundaries because they lack the energy and talent, but Yu Wei is different. He has a special ability, and it would be a waste not to make the most of it.

Online writers have it easy; they can explain anything as going out to gather material.

"It seems you really love writing novels."

Chi Leying had actually glanced at this book a few times at first, but she just couldn't muster any interest in it, so she only read a few key chapters.

In the center of the set, Qi Yunming was giving instructions to a young actor auditioning for a role, but progress was extremely slow.

The current generation of young actors is really not up to par. They can't even deliver their lines properly, either reading them off or using colloquial language. Their basic skills are lacking, let alone their ability to understand them.

However, he was too lazy to go into details; it was just a TV show, so that was enough.

Whether he's dedicated or not, he won't lose money. Being too fierce will only offend people, so why bother?

Qi Yunming had noticed the newly arrived Yu Wei long ago. In fact, he quite admired the young man, but there was no need for him to make a special acquaintance.

There are plenty of awesome people in this world; just knowing that such a person exists is enough.

Yu Wei was looking at the script in Chi Leying's hand. The scene was actually very simple: the male lead had an affair with his mistress, and then the female lead caught them in bed together. In the end, they made a big scene, and the female lead left in a huff and a huff.

The only challenge lies in the emotional outburst upon discovering her husband's infidelity, and that's what Chi Leying wants to try.

"I understand the logic, but why isn't the mistress wearing the female lead's clothes?"

Isn't this the famous "You're so sexy" scene?
However, this scene is from the romance film "Unfaithful," which mainly focuses on the female lead's emotional struggles rather than revenge.

To others, this statement sounds very strange. Why would a mistress wear the female lead's clothes? What kind of logic is that? Just for a thrill?

That's pretty exciting!

What was said in jest was taken seriously by Qi Yunming; to him, this small change was quite interesting.

Clothing is a symbol of status. The fact that the mistress wears the female lead's clothes represents her attempt to completely replace the female lead's position in the family, reflecting her distorted competitive mentality and moral deficiency.

The fact that the male protagonist still cheated on his wife despite knowing that the clothes belonged to her shows that he was consciously falling into depravity and had long since forgotten his so-called original wife, making him appear even more hypocritical.

Meanwhile, the female lead's clothes also become an extension of her personality, foreshadowing her eventual despair.

This kid's got some interesting potential.

As expected of a novelist, his understanding of the characters and plot is so thorough, which is much better than many of the incompetent screenwriters he has met.

Qi Yunming was puzzled after listening to Yu Wei's song, wondering why such a talented young man would write such a nonsensical novel. It turns out it was to hone his storytelling skills.

With a small change, the tension of the plot can be increased, and in doing so, a lot of emotionally charged dialogue can be deleted, making it much more concise.

With fewer lines, these young people are easier to get started with, and it's also easier for me to guide them—a win-win situation.

Professional writers are just different.

Here's the pen, you can use it.
