Life in the Light and Shadow of Chinese Entertainment

This is what naive and foolish college students are like, fresh out of school and yet to have been tempered by society.

If it were a seasoned veteran in the workplace, they would never say something so rashly.

If it were management, it would be fine, but Wang Hao was just a script supervisor in the behind-the-scenes team, doing odd jobs.

To put it bluntly, anyone can do this job; it's just a matter of being a skilled worker. The only requirement to do it well is to be meticulous.

Fortunately, most of the people in the studio are from the same year or are fellow students from the same year.

After spending more than a year together, they became quite familiar with each other.

Even though some people felt it was inappropriate, no one ridiculed Wang Hao for overestimating his abilities.

Even Wu Yang didn't think much of it when he heard this, because he knew Wang Hao's character.

I know this quiet person is very meticulous at work and cautious in his dealings with others.

If he's willing to ask, then in his mind, it must be something that benefits the studio.

The person introducing him was a screenwriter friend, and the recommendation was for a movie script, which means he had read the script.

Although he was a script supervisor, he was still a professional who graduated from the Beijing Film Academy with a bachelor's degree.

They still have the ability to evaluate scripts, and besides, everyone is free right now, and they won't be flying to Hollywood for another five days.

"Did you bring the script? Let me take a look."

Wang Hao turned around, took a movie script out of his bag, and handed it to Wu Yang.

Upon receiving the script, the first thing that caught my eye was "Lost in Thailand," a somewhat unusual title.

Next is Tian Yusheng, the screenwriter's name.

Seeing these two names instantly brought back images buried deep in my memory.

As Wu Yang pondered the script, the noise in the studio subsided considerably.

After exchanging glances, everyone turned their attention to Wang Hao, who looked slightly embarrassed.

Wang Hao, cautious yet slightly self-conscious, was a sensitive person and immediately noticed the gazes of those around him.

Tian Yusheng was Wang Hao's neighbor. Wang Hao was shy and introverted since childhood, and Tian Yusheng always stood up for him whenever he was bullied.

Wang Hao was also influenced by Tian Yusheng to apply for a film and television major. Now the two are not only friends but also colleagues.

Every year during the Lunar New Year, we would get together privately.

For the first time in his life, Wang Hao couldn't remain indifferent to Tian Yusheng's request.

Now he could only stand beside Wu Yang, waiting quietly with a touch of trepidation.

Wu Yang, who was deep in thought, also sensed the change in the atmosphere around him and quickly snapped out of his reverie.

He raised his head slightly and, seeing the nervous expression on Wang Hao's face, smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I was just thinking about something."

Then, in front of everyone, he opened the script and looked at the text, which differed slightly from his memory.

The main and side quests are complete, but the dialogue isn't as refined and funny as I remember.

These are all minor issues. If my memory serves me right, this movie brought in many times the return for the investors.

Most importantly, it was through the plagiarized sequel that Xu Guangtou made a comeback.

He not only rose to the top of the film industry but also became an internationally renowned actor, bringing substantial economic benefits to Siam.

He was also received by the leaders of Siam and made every effort to help his compatriots who were persecuted for traveling to Siam.

The massive tourism boom in Southeast Asia began with that sequel, featuring the victims of murder in Siam and northern Myanmar.

There is a cause and effect involved in everything, and it exists within him!

Although no one denounced him, it didn't stop Wu Yang from disliking him, even if he wouldn't suppress him for no reason.

They can also ignore it, just like at the premiere a few days ago, when he and Huang Bo came to greet them.

Wu Yang chatted with Huang Bo for a few minutes, but when facing him, she simply gave him a perfunctory answer.

The movie that made him famous is now the main reason why his compatriots were killed while traveling in Southeast Asia.

If he falls into Wu Yang's hands, then he won't be allowed to escape, nor will he be chosen as one of the two male leads.

Eliminate it from the root, even if there is no movie that breaks the 10 billion box office record in the future.

Wu Yang is confident he can break through!

This is not a display of saintly compassion, but rather an expression of patriotism, perhaps stemming from an inability to bear seeing compatriots being persecuted by bad people without cause.

These small, remote countries are teeming with lackeys of their foreign masters, and they are filled with malice towards the land of China.

If Wu Yang were to travel back to a time of war, he would want to wipe them all out and make them part of China's territory!

……

"Thank you for your trust, Director Wu. I will definitely work hard to cooperate with the crew! I will also seriously consider your invitation."

Tian Yusheng never expected that during a gathering with Wang Hao over the Chinese New Year, the conversation would inevitably turn to investment.

On a whim, he gave Wang Hao a script and asked him to recommend it to Wu Yang.

I didn't expect to get a reply so quickly, and I didn't expect that he had just arrived in the capital yesterday and was planning to submit his work to film and television companies such as Huayi today.

She had just stepped out the door when she received a call from Wang Hao.

Then I went to Wu Yang's film studio to negotiate. It started with signing a script buyout contract, then I became a screenwriter on the film crew, and finally I was invited by Wu Yang to join the studio.

The whole process went so smoothly that he was almost in a daze.

Since finishing the script last year, Tian Yusheng has submitted it to several film and television companies in Shanghai, but has not received any news after several months.

He arrived in Beijing yesterday, intending to look for opportunities. After all, he graduated from the Central Academy of Drama and has some connections.

Looking at the three contracts in his hand, one of which was a script buyout contract worth 50.

The second contract was for 20 yuan as a screenwriter on set, and the third contract was for an annual salary of 10 yuan, with 10% of the profits from the work to be earned.

The first two contracts were actually quite expensive for Tian Yusheng, a newcomer to the film and television industry.

However, Tian Yusheng still needs to consider the third offer.

After all, back in 05, Tian Yusheng and several classmates and friends founded Sheng Tang Studio.

Unfortunately, even after 5 years, the studio's performance is still very poor, and the scripts they wrote have all disappeared without a trace.

It didn't even make a ripple. The studio is now just a shell of its former self, with only Tian Yusheng still holding on.

As one of the co-founders, even if I were to leave, I would need to discuss it with the other partners.

Therefore, even though she was very tempted by Wu Yang's invitation, she did not accept it on the spot.

After Tian Yusheng left with three contracts, Pei Le made seven copies of the script, giving one to everyone except Zhang Lan, the receptionist.

Wu Yang just made it very clear to Tian Yusheng that the investment will be decided after discussions with China Film Group and Huayi Brothers. If they do not participate, all the investment will be provided by the studio.

Pei Le, the executive director of Wu Yang's film, has been promoted to director, and Wang Hui, the assistant director, has been promoted to executive director and assistant director.

Photographer Zhang Qiang also served as assistant director. The rest of the staff remained the same, and Pang Hai and Zhao Xiaoguang continued to accompany Wu Yang to the United States.
