I really don't want high ratings for my documentaries!

Chapter 509 Flying Guests!

"Xu Wen wants to make a costume drama?"

Ji Chang raised his eyebrows, and waved away the dresser and assistant who were helping him organize his clothes.

The costumers and assistants have dealt with celebrities for many years, and they know when to be present and when not to be present, so they left very tactfully.

After only Ji Chang and his manager were left in the room, the manager nodded.

"Yes, according to the news I got from the central station, the central station has reserved a quota for period dramas for Xu Wen."

"But Xu Wen, he shouldn't just focus on shooting other genres, that is, costume dramas."

Ji Chang frowned slightly, thought for a while and spoke again.

"Didn't he know that there is only one director for each genre? Didn't the central station tell him that I was going to shoot the part about the ancient costume conspiracy?"

For a rising star like Xu Wen, Ji Chang is concerned.

After all, they are all in the same circle.

Coupled with the popularity of "The World" and "Knowledge", it is difficult for Ji Chang to know Xu Wen's name.

And speaking of it, Ji Chang admired Xu Wen very much.

Because he has watched several episodes of "The World".

After learning that Xu Wen was a documentary director before, and "The World" was the first TV series he directed, his appreciation for Xu Wen was even greater in his heart.

Others have been struggling in the circle for many years before they can figure out their own style.

Unexpectedly, Xu Wen's first work has a very mature style.

Even when the few old fellows were gathering in private, when talking about Xu Wen, they basically gave positive comments.

They also think that if Xu Wen's path does not go astray.

In a few decades, he will be the leader of Huaguo TV dramas, and his status will be about the same as theirs now.

He has always paid attention to Xu Wen as an excellent junior.

It never occurred to him that one day he would be on the same stage of competition as Xu Wenshen.

Hearing Ji Chang's words, the manager shook his head.

"That's not the case. I've inquired about it. Director Wang of the Central Station told Xu Wen about the importance of "cultural export" this time."

"In other words, it is Xu Wen who still chooses to shoot works of ancient costumes and schemes on the premise of knowing the cause and effect?"

Ji Chang asked back.

The manager nodded slowly.

Hearing this, Ji Chang couldn't help laughing.

"I didn't expect that this little Xu looks like me back then, and he refuses to admit defeat in the face of seniors."

"Mr. Ji, aren't you angry? Everyone in the circle knows that the quota for cultural output is given to you for costume dramas. Xu Wen's doing this is slapping you in the face."

Compared to Ji Chang's open-mindedness, the manager seemed a little angry.

Ji Chang smiled and waved his hands.

"There is nothing to be angry about this kind of thing. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. No matter what generation it is, it will always have to confront the new era to complete the handover."

"Besides, didn't I grow up from the hands of my predecessors in the same way back then? If Xu Wen's TV series are really better than mine, then I am also willing to bet and admit defeat."

Facing Ji Chang's words, the manager opened his mouth.

"Let me see, this Xu Wen actually filmed two works, so the whole person is floating. When he is on the show, he feels that he is a great director."

"Program? You mean "The Actor Born"?"

"That's right, isn't it? Otherwise, how can a junior who has only filmed two works dare to challenge a senior like you."

The manager grumbled, looking extremely dissatisfied.

Although Xu Wen was nominated for the Huading Award, and both works were shortlisted, among the four mentors in the same program, he seemed not so inferior.

But in the eyes of the agent, it still can't be compared with a big name like Ji Chang who has been in the industry for many years.

Ji Chang smiled, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Have you ever invited me to this show?"

"No, they have a program mechanism to invite flying guests, but they didn't invite us."

"They can invite me."

Ji Chang looked at his manager and said something with a half-smile.

"Huh? Oh! Understood! They will definitely invite us."

The manager quickly reacted and smiled.

Ji Chang nodded in satisfaction, at this moment, Ji Chang's cell phone rang several times.

When he picked it up, he saw that they were all text messages sent to him by friends of similar status to him.

Between the words, there is a sense of teasing that Xu Wen wants to make a costume drama and meet Ji Chang.

With a touch of humor.

Ji Chang also shook his head and smiled wryly.

A luxury residential area in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

"Tear~"

Hu Xiaoqing pulled open the curtains, and all of a sudden, the darkness in the room was filled with the sunlight that poured in.

The originally gloomy space has also become much brighter.

When Xu Wen opened the window, the air also became cloudy.

Hu Xiaoqing covered her nose, waved her hand, and knocked away the dust lingering in front of her nose.

Then he turned to order some cleaning aunts.

"These places need to be wiped clean."

"Over there. It looks dirty to me over there."

"Slow down your movements, don't disturb the inside."

I haven't come back for a long time, but when I came back, I saw a house like Pansi Cave.

Hu Xiaoqing almost fainted.

I also have a little understanding of the man in the creative period in my heart.

Before she came back, Zhang Min had sent her a message.

So Hu Xiaoqing was also prepared, but when she saw the actual scene, she was still taken aback.

When the house was almost cleaned, the door of the bedroom was just opened.

Xu Wen with messy hair came out wearing an old man's shirt.

Yawning and scratching his head.

Seeing the brand-new home, I was still a little dazed.

Hu Xiaoqing was also stunned.

She never imagined that Xu Wen, who had always been delicate, had turned into such a ghost.

Seeing Hu Xiaoqing, Xu Wen walked over with a smile.

"Why did you come back, and you didn't send me a message."

"I said honey, I sent you a message but you didn't reply to me."

Hu Xiaoqing glanced at Xu Wen angrily.

Xu Wen froze for a moment, then said with a smile.

"I was so engrossed that I probably didn't see it."

"Okay, you go take a shower first, I'll ask auntie to clean your bedroom."

Hu Xiaoqing glanced at Xu Wen dotingly.

Xu Wen nodded, took the clothes and walked into the bathroom.

And the aunts also took the opportunity to start cleaning Xu Wen's bedroom.

Hu Xiaoqing walked into the bedroom and came to Xu Wen's workbench.

Looking at the script with a lot of words written in the computer, I couldn't help but sat down with curiosity.

Is this what turned Xu Wen into an otaku?
Hu Xiaoqing muttered in her heart, then turned the script to the first page and began to examine it carefully.

"Langya Bang? What's the name?"

After seeing the script for the first time, Hu Xiaoqing couldn't help but mutter.

Then he began to stare intently.

Meiling, Red Flame Army
At first I looked at it casually, but gradually, I couldn't move my eyes away.

When Xu Wen came out of the shower, he saw Hu Xiaoqing sitting in front of the computer and looking at the script he wrote.

Shouted with a smile.

"how do you feel?"

But the strange thing is that Hu Xiaoqing didn't answer her, but continued to stare at the computer instead.

Xu Wen frowned, walked over, and patted Hu Xiaoqing on the shoulder.

"Hey, why didn't you respond when I called you?"

"Huh? Oh oh oh, I'm sorry, I'm too fascinated by watching it."

Hu Xiaoqing came back to her senses suddenly, and patted her face.

Then he suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Wen, and said word by word.

"Is this "Langya Bang" a new TV series you plan to make?"

"That's right, only half of the TV series have been written so far."

Xu Wen smiled and nodded.

When Wang Liang told him that there was already a famous director for the costume drama.

Xu Wen's confidence in thinking about filming ancient costume schemes lies in that.

"Langya Bang"!
There is basically no need to introduce too much about how hot this show is.

Its popularity can basically be regarded as one of the hottest conspiracy dramas in recent years.

Of course it was before "Celebrating More Than Years" came out.

But in terms of influence overseas, "Celebrating More Than Years" still can't compare with "Langya Bang"!
And relying on its own influence, it is also a popular existence in Kimchi Country and Neon.

It is precisely because of this drama that Xu Wen dared to say that he wanted to shoot another drama.

Otherwise, he can get the quota of the period drama without any effort.

Lie flat, who wouldn't!

After hearing Xu Wen's words, Hu Xiaoqing suddenly became very excited and stood up immediately.

"It's no wonder that China Central Television asked you to make a period drama, but you didn't want to do it. It's because you have a better drama!"

"I've only read this script for a while, and I think it's very good. I want to invest in your TV series!"

As for Xu Wen, he gave up the quota of CCTV's period drama and insisted on filming a period drama by himself.

At the beginning, Hu Xiaoqing didn't understand, but as Xu Wen's object, even if she didn't understand, Hu Xiaoqing still supported her very much.

But now that she saw Xu Wen's prepared script, she became more sure of her choice.

Xu Wen smiled.

"Okay, anyway, I haven't started shooting yet, and when the time comes, I'm ready to start shooting, so you can invest."

"Oh, I knew you were the best!"

Hu Xiaoqing threw herself into Xu Wen's arms excitedly.

A few days later, Xu Wen watched Hu Xiaoqing leave Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

At the same time, I also got on the plane to Xiangcheng.

Because "The Born Actor" has been broadcast for several episodes, Luo Bei also notified Xu Wen and others to go back and re-record the material.

This time when he went back, Xu Wen brought He Mei with him.

Xu Wen is still very concerned about this first artist signed by his company.

After talking with Zhang Min last time, Zhang Min arranged several roles for He Mei to audition for.

Although they are not heroine roles, they are also characters in some big productions.

It's basically the kind of character with a distinct personality.

In this year, sometimes playing the leading role may not be popular, but playing some characters with distinctive personalities or villains with clear love and hate is easier to be remembered by people.

Fortunately, He Mei herself is also a very spiritual actor.

Out of three auditions, two roles were chosen.

The joining time of the two characters happens to be staggered.

There is no such thing as drama.

Basically, after the show is over, you can join the group seamlessly.

In addition to He Mei, Zhang Min also found some other new actors during this period and signed them into the company.

But in Xu Wen's view, they still need to be tempered.

The plane landed in Xiangcheng.

There are already staff waiting at the airport.

Back at the familiar hotel, there was a knock on the door before Xu Wen packed up.

Walking to the door and opening it, I found that it was Tao Jing.

Seeing Xu Wen, Tao Jing smiled.

"Let's go skewering together at night? Director Zhou is still here."

"Where's Wang Jiawei?"

Xu Wen asked back.

Tao Jing shook her head.

"His plane is late, and he won't be here until tomorrow morning. We can have some food first."

"Oh oh, ok, no problem."

Xu Wen nodded.

Tao Jing chuckled and looked Xu Wen up and down.

"You're fine, kid. You don't even want the quota for period dramas given by the central station. I insist on competing with Mr. Ji for the spot. Now I won't accept anyone, but you!"

"I mainly don't want to make modern dramas."

Xu Wen smiled wryly.

Tao Jing waved her hands carelessly.

"Hey, hey, don't think I'm talking about you. On the contrary, I still admire you. There are not many people who dare to lift a tiger's beard these days."

"Now this matter is being circulated in the circle, and I am also looking forward to what works you can come up with. It is best to surprise us."

Tao Jing has a mentality that watching the excitement is not a big deal.

Xu Wen looked at Tao Jing suspiciously.

"I'm afraid you don't think so in your heart, you probably call me a fool behind my back."

"Even if we call you a fool behind your back, do you admit it yourself?"

"deny."

"That's it. Besides, after getting along with you, I found that you are a smart person. Since you chose not to be a part of the period drama, it means that you are definitely not a drifter like others said."

Tao Jing said with a smile.

Xu Wen was stunned for a moment, then laughed dumbly.

"I feel that others think that I don't want a place in a period drama because I'm gone?"

"That's right, I think you have gained a little fame thanks to the two dramas, so you want to challenge your seniors."

Tao Jing smiled.

Xu Wen also shook his head.

After packing up, Xu Wen followed Tao Jing out of the hotel.

At the door of the barbecue shop, Xu Wen also saw Zhou Pingping.

Not seeing each other for a week or two, Zhou Pingping gave himself a yellow hair perm.

The first time Tao Jing saw Zhou Pingping, she couldn't help stretching out her hand to play with his hair.

"Oh! It's ok! Mr. Zhou, a lot of people are still playing with such flamboyance after a lot of age, and they dyed their hair like young people."

"Oh, I'm accompanying my daughter to dye it. My daughter wants to dye it, but she is afraid that it will be ruined, so she pulls me."

Zhou Pingping said helplessly.

These words made Xu Wen and Tao Jing laugh out loud.

Walking into the box that had been prepared a long time ago in the barbecue shop, the three of them chatted while making skewers.

Compared with actors, directors have no restrictions, that is, they don't have so many body requirements.

You can let them masturbate unscrupulously, otherwise if you change to an actor.

It is estimated that it can't finish a few sticks in an hour.

Halfway through the chat, Zhou Pingping suddenly spoke.

"Hey, after listening to the explanation, in the recorded schedule, there are flying guests."
