director of the millennium

"Really?" Yang Mi was stunned, a little uncertain.

Her popularity has indeed declined in the past two years. On the one hand, it is because of the butterfly effect that Jiaxing no longer appears, so many TV series produced by Jiaxing did not appear in this time and space or were not produced by Jiaxing.

The most important one is "Gu Jian Qi Tan". This drama was produced by Tangren in this time and space, and its popularity is far less than that of Yang Mi's version in the original time and space.

Just like in the original time and space, Yang Mi chose to get married and get pregnant after becoming famous. Without the TV series "Gu Jian Qi Tan" which made her return to the peak of popularity after her pregnancy, she had a gap in the two years after she became pregnant with Xiao Nuomi.

There is never a shortage of young and beautiful female stars in the entertainment industry. One or two years is enough for the public to forget about Yang Mi.

This is why it is said that the biggest enemy of female stars is getting married and having children. Not only because marriage will cause many male fans to leave, but also because pregnancy and childbirth will inevitably lead to a 1-2 year window period for popular female stars, and then they will be surpassed and eliminated by their juniors.

Cases like Yang Mi in the original time and space, where her popularity after giving birth is even higher than before giving birth, are extremely rare.

On the contrary, Yang Mi's development in this time and space is very consistent with the situation of a normal female artist. Now after giving birth to a daughter, her popularity has inevitably declined a lot. Although it is not as serious as being out of date, it is indeed a case of the old being replaced by the new.

Under such circumstances, although it is still a bit "excessive" for Yang Mi to receive an invitation to "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves", it is not unreasonable.

If this program was not planned by Wu Yuan, Yang Mi would definitely refuse it without hesitation. Neither she nor her agent thinks that she is out of date. Although she is not a top star, as a member of the first echelon of 85 flowers, her popularity is still firmly in the top tier.

But this program was planned by Wu Yuan, and he invited her, which made her consider whether Wu Yuan wanted her to participate in this program to make it more popular.

After all, even a first-line actress like Yang Mi wants to "Ride the Wind and Waves" to fight for a chance to make her debut again, so the value of this program must be rising rapidly.

After thinking it over, Yang Mi still did not plan to refuse directly. Instead, she asked her agent to continue to communicate in depth with the program crew to find out the situation of the program, and most importantly, whether there will be any tricks in the editing, and then consider whether to participate.

After all, it was four years ago that she gave birth to her child, and her once sweet love with her husband has come to an end. They are now separated, and if nothing unexpected happens, they will announce their divorce by the end of the year.

It's time for her to focus back on her acting career. If she uses this show as her "rebirth from the ashes" after her divorce, it may not be a bad thing.

On the other hand, Wu Yuan was completely unaware of Yang Mi's misunderstanding. He did not provide any guest list for "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves". After all, the show requires 30 guests, and he was not very satisfied with the guests of the first season, so he let the program crew have free rein. He didn't even know that the program crew had set their sights on Yang Mi.

In fact, if Liu Yifei wasn't so "high and mighty", and she never participated in other variety shows except "Big Camp", the program team actually wanted to invite Liu Yifei.
I can only say that Mango TV, which got this plan, is really bold.

However, Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei at this time were not paying attention to "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves" at all. Instead, they held a banquet in Beijing and invited several main creators of the "Super Time Cohabitation" crew to dinner.

December is just a few days away, and "Time Raiders" scheduled to be released in early December will soon be released nationwide. Several main creators have gathered in Beijing, waiting for the premiere to begin.

Wu Yuan also took this opportunity to invite them to dinner. After all, the last visit was a bit rushed, and Wu Yuan didn't have time to chat with the main creators. This time, he finally had time to chat.

During the dinner, Wu Yuan also met Lei Datou, nicknamed Big-Headed Baby.

Wu Yuan actually admires Lei Datou very much. He has good acting skills and doesn't cause trouble. The only thing he lacks in appearance is his appearance.

But for the film industry, appearance has never been an obstacle, at least not a decisive factor. Most of the actors who can carry the box office are not actually very good-looking. From Huang Bo to Wu Jing to Shen Teng, although they all had their handsome periods, their box office success has little to do with their appearance.

Wu Yuan is very optimistic about Lei Datou and thinks that he will become another box office-winning actor in the domestic film industry in the future.

The main reason is that Lei Datou has a very special temperament. He can be both funny and cowardly. If he goes into comedy, he will have a bright future.

"Jiayin, I heard that you were very arrogant when you were in school." Wu Yuan was still teasing Lei Datou while drinking. "But you do have the capital to be arrogant. You were spotted by the Magic City Drama Troupe before you even graduated, right?"

"Oh, I was young and ignorant at that time, and made Director Wu laugh at me." Lei Datou waved his hands repeatedly, feeling very embarrassed.

Who hasn’t been young and reckless?

When he was in his twenties, Lei Datou was very arrogant. He felt that he was invincible as an actor and looked down on this and that all day long. Later, after he joined the drama troupe, he felt that those who acted in dramas were the real actors, those who acted in movies could barely be considered actors, and those who acted in TV dramas were just a bunch of money-seeking people.

Yes, when he was young, Lei Datou particularly looked down on TV actors, thinking that actors acted in TV dramas purely for the sake of making a living, and that the real art was movies and dramas.

Well, after being beaten by reality, Lei Datou has become obedient. Not to mention TV dramas, he now also plays comedies, which he once disdained the most.

"Jiayin, let's hope we have a chance to work together in the future!" Wu Yuan patted Lei Datou's shoulder with a smile on his face. He didn't know how many people he had said this to, but every time he said it, he was sincere. He really wanted to work with these actors, but he just couldn't find the opportunity or missed it.

Just like this time when he met Lei Datou, he remembered that Lei Datou was actually very suitable to appear in the subsequent stories of "The Monkey King".

Yes, Wu Yuan has already thought of the follow-up story of the "Monkey King" series. Sun Wukong, who inherited the abilities of the Monkey King, has to form his own team to resist the crisis of invading the earth.

Lei Datou can play the second-generation Marshal Tianpeng who inherited Zhu Bajie's legacy in the second part.

Although Lei Datou is not fat, his plump and funny face makes him perfect for the role of Zhu Bajie's disciple. (End of this chapter)
