Chapter 434: The First Time Facing the Victim, the Yellow-Haired Wei

June, Hengdian

In the crew of "Nirvana in Fire", Wei Yang wore a fox fur coat and held a hand warmer in his hand, acting with Jing Wang Kai and others.

After director Zhang Yongxin shouted "over", Wei Yang stood up and took off the coat first.

The average daytime temperature in Hengdian during this period was 23-26 degrees, which was the best weather for a film that was neither too cold nor too hot.

But the filming was in winter, and Wei Yang had added a cold-fearing setting to him in order to enrich the details of the character.

He wore thicker clothes than others, kept a hand warmer with him, and liked to lean against the stove, which immediately showed that the character of Mei Changsu was weak and weak, and his physical fitness was inferior to that of normal people.

Of course, there were other reasons. The filming was in April, and Hengdian was cold at that time. He wore more warm clothes, and he was the most comfortable during the filming.

As a result, the spring cold turned into summer, and Wei Yang had taken advantage of it before, and now it was all back.

It was already a bit hot wearing a cloak, and the hand warmer could be used as a decoration, but it was really unbearable to lean against the stove. Wei Yang obviously preferred to walk or stand when filming later, and stayed away from the stove.

"Fortunately, there is still a month to wrap up. If I had worn this in the summer, I would have gotten prickly heat."

Wei Yang couldn't help but grab the clothes, open the collar, and fan the wind.

It was indeed a bit thick. It was okay to be a little cold in the morning and evening, but in the hot sun at noon, the lining inside was a bit wet and sticky and uncomfortable.

After a little cool breeze, Wei Yang finally relaxed and looked at Wang Kai: "How many scenes are left?"

"Not much, it will be finished in about four or five days."

The drama "Nirvana in Fire" has a total of 50 episodes, and the estimated shooting plan is 4 to 5 months.

However, in the actual filming, since many actors are talented or familiar faces who have worked together many times, and Blue Whale is a well-tested team, they are already familiar with this kind of costume drama, and the progress is smoother than expected.

Wang Kai joined the crew in March, and he is the second male lead. His scenes have been almost finished, and he finished earlier than Wei Yang.

Wei Yang joined the crew later, and many rival scenes and personal scenes were delayed. It is estimated that the filming will be completed in July. Liu Shishi joined the crew the latest, and it is estimated that she can accompany him to the end.

Taking a few sips of the fruity water specially prepared by the nutritionist to relieve the heat and thirst and replenish physical strength, Wei Yang rarely cares about the career of his subordinates.

He and Wang Kai knew each other when they were filming "Shan Shan Comes". They are not good friends, but they are quite familiar with each other.

"What's the next drama?"

"Our company's Ode to Joy, Noon Sunshine's Disguiser, and an urban drama."

"Disguiser?"

Wei Yang frowned and asked, "Which male lead?"

Wang Kai was stunned: "The third male lead."

Wei Yang asked again, "Do you want to take it yourself?"

"Well, how do you know?"

"If your agent gives you a drama in which the third male lead is played, you can pack up and leave."

Wei Yang was very calm. Wang Kai is one of the most valued male artists in Coral Entertainment. If he had not been planning fresh meat and traffic to make money, and if he had not intended to promote Zhang Ruoyun and Lianluo Luhan, he would have been very likely to become the number one in Coral.

Even now, Wang Kai is still a strong competitor for the number one in Coral.

Not to mention anything else, just playing the second male lead twice for Boss Wei is a great qualification.

In the early years of "My Sunshine", Wei Yang was still at his peak, but after the trilogy of "Joy of Life", Wei Yang's new drama roles were very popular.

Wang Kai was able to get the male second role, and a male second role with extremely important scenes. It is conceivable that Coral Entertainment or Blue Whale attaches great importance to him.

It’s okay for him to play a role in the "Ode to Joy" project. No matter how powerful Noon Sunshine is, it will not let him play the male third.

There is no such way to go the route of strength!

With the support of Coral and Blue Whale, theoretically, Wang Kai has a chance to replace Hu Ge directly.

"It’s mainly because the role is good, and my age is not suitable for the male second."

Wang Kai was afraid that Wei Yang would be angry, so he quickly explained that apart from the background, he is still far behind Hu Ge in terms of fame at this stage.

Noon Sunshine only wants to make a name for itself and start a commercial route, so it will look for big names to cooperate. Wang Kai is much better than the original time and space, but he is not qualified to carry the ratings.

As for the male second, Jin Dong is of the right age, and he is familiar with Noon Sunshine, so he is one step ahead.

"It's okay. I've read that script. It's really good."

Wei Yang wasn't angry. Wang Kai's status was there. It was normal that mainstream production couldn't compete with others. Once "Nirvana in Fire" was broadcast, would you still be afraid of lacking male lead roles in the future?

"You also know that script? That's..."

Wang Kai was more concerned about another thing. Wei Yang nodded: "I was the one who recommended Hu Ge."

Noon Sunshine has always wanted to cooperate with Boss Wei. Before filming the trilogy of "Celebrating Yu Nian", Wei Yang did owe him a favor for borrowing Kong Sheng's director.

At that time, they promised to cooperate on a play in the future. For various reasons, Wei Yang specifically wanted a main theme. Noon Sunshine later took several scripts.

These include the famous "No Quiet in Peking", "War in Changsha" and "The Pretender".

Wei Yang held down "War in Changsha" and made an appointment to talk in detail later. He didn't care about other things, but recommended Hu Ge to Noon Sunshine.

In fact, Noon Sunshine was considering Qiao Zhenyu, but hesitated about his age. After listening to Wei Yang's recommendation, he felt that Hu Ge's youthfulness was very suitable for the transformation of the male protagonist Mingtai in the play.

This is also one of the few consciences of Boss Wei. He can't take advantage of all the wool. After all, Lao Hu is his buddy.

In addition, the play "The Pretender" also has a certain investment from Blue Whale, and it is likely to be broadcast on PPTV in the future.

This is also the reason why Wei Yang reacted normally, because this is also half of his own project. Wang Kai suffered a little loss, as long as it helps the project, it doesn't matter.

"The company also intends to develop in the direction of serious drama in the future. You are one of the most suitable candidates, but you have to pick up the grudge."

Boss Wei is still quite satisfied with Wang Kai's character who is ambitious, but does not fight or compete, obeys arrangements, and his role is greater than his position.

Such talents can stay in the company steadily and for a long time, such as Qiao Zhenyu and Li Jiahang of Blue Whale.

There is no way. The situation on the female artist side is more complicated. If the male artist makes trouble again, it will add fuel to the fire, so Wei Yang prefers this kind of "open-minded" male star.

Of course, Wei Yang will not treat them unfairly. The appropriate resources are all picked by his own family.

For example, Wang Kai, some of the company's subsequent urban elites and costume mature men's dramas are basically his and Qiao Zhenyu's, and serious dramas also tend to be biased towards them.

For example, in "The Great River", he will be the male lead as expected. In addition, Noon Sunshine will also deepen cooperation. With the foreshadowing of "The Pretender", Wang Kai can be said to have established a connection with them.

This is another reason why Wei Yang tacitly agreed to Wang Kai's performance in "The Pretender".

Although Noon Sunshine has developed the artist management business, its ambition is not big. There are only a few big cats and small cats. Blue Whale can completely export artists to them and use Noon Sunshine's dramas to promote its own artists.

Wei Yang has taken a lot of advantage of Noon Sunshine, but it does not mean that they have no dramas to shoot.

They will definitely start new projects. Many of their projects are adapted dramas. Wei Yang intercepted them in advance, so they just changed a new story.

Noon Sunshine's foundation is here. Even if they change a batch of stories, even if they are not successful in their previous life. Wei Yang also believes that it can definitely guarantee the bottom line.

So Wei Yang has always wanted to build a good relationship with Noon Sunshine, even to form cooperation, or even to acquire shares.

In the past, it was more about maintaining the superiority of Blue Whale. Now that PPTV has been taken over, this desire is even stronger. If it is tied to Noon Sunshine, it will have an additional long-term and stable source of high-quality content.

By then, PPTV will have two trump cards, Blue Whale and Noon Sunshine, and a group of artists from the same department will wave the flag and shout.

Boss Wei is really confident to compete with Youku and Goose!

Speaking of this, Wei Yang also made an appointment with Wang Kai to visit the set, and planned to go to Noon Sunshine in person to test the waters.

This matter cannot be delayed!

At this stage, the Noon Sunshine team has been highly valued by the industry, but it itself focuses more on dramas and main themes, and the market is mainly on the TV platform, so various video websites do not pay enough attention to it.

Once the commercialization strategy of Noon Sunshine shows its prowess and attracts the attention of various websites, it will be too late for Wei Yang to take action.

…

A few days later, Wang Kai finished filming and left the group. Wei Yang told him the time, and then left the crew with Liu Shishi.

They are going to participate in the Magnolia Awards this time!

This year's Magnolia Award has nothing to do with Wei Yang. The Hunan TV imprint is too strong in the trilogy of "Celebrating More Than Years". If he wants to win the Golden Eagle Award, he has to wait until the Golden Eagle Award.

The Magnolia Award may give some face and win some honorary awards, but it is difficult to get a nod in the core awards.

However, this does not mean that there is a gap between the Magnolia Award and Wei Yang. On the contrary, this time it is exclusively broadcast on the PPTV network, so Wei Yang came to support it in person.

Everyone carries the sedan chair. When Wei Yang gets a drama with enough weight to be broadcast on the Magic City TV next time, the Magnolia TV King is estimated to be stable.

As for Liu Shishi, she is not here to join in the fun. The "Mu Mansion Storm" starring her has been nominated for the Magnolia TV Queen again.

This is the second time Liu Shishi has been nominated for the Magnolia TV Queen, and she is considered a strong contender.

Unconsciously, the "blind sister" who had countless complaints in her previous life has become a well-known "powerful actress". Not only has she won the Grand Slam Golden Eagle Award, she is also expected to win the second award, leading the way among the post-85 actresses.

So much so that Wei Yang sometimes wonders whether, in addition to the three normal ways to control her husband, he has accidentally opened up another trick for Liu Shishi.

So far, Liu Shishi's acting skills are not very good, just average, but perhaps the role is suitable, and she just plays very steadily.

And many times, being able to play steadily can already surpass most actors.

Among the group of 85 flowers, Wei Yang was most optimistic about Xiao Zhao winning the award, and thought that Liu Shishi would be good enough to win a popularity award, but the facts proved that he was slapped in the face.

So far, Liu Shishi is the most popular and famous among the 85 flowers, and she is also the leader in hardcore honors.

To be honest, Wei Yang sometimes reflects on whether he has given Liu Shishi too much cheating, how did he suddenly become the big boss of the 85 flowers.

It's fine that the other two beauties in the Fairy Sword + Xiao Zhao are not opponents, even the originally unattainable Liu Tianxian, if this continues, will soon become a little Liu Shishi...

Wei Yang and Liu Shishi sighed and entered the backstage amid the cheers of the red carpet audience, and started to greet the acquaintances.

"Shishi, long time no see."

Wei Yang just greeted Deng Chao, and suddenly heard a familiar voice. Looking back, his scalp instantly numbed.

A beautiful woman with an elegant temperament was smiling and greeting Liu Shishi. It was Gao Yuanyuan who had made Wei Yang break his vows and inherit the legacy of Wei Wu in Thailand before.

But he was not the biggest reason for Wei Yang's guilty conscience. What really made his scalp tingle was Zhao Youting, who had a simple smile on his face next to Gao Yuanyuan.

"Hello, Mr. Wei, I am Zhao Youting. I would like to thank you for taking care of our family on the set."

"...It should be."

Wei Yang shook hands with Zhao Youting and secretly glanced at Gao Yuanyuan, who smiled back and asked cheerfully.

"Mr. Wei seems to have lost weight recently?"

"Losing weight while filming."

"Oh, you have to pay attention to your health. I have a dietary supplement recipe. It is low in calories and nourishes the body. I will send it to you later."

"…Thank you."

"You're too kind."

Gao Yuanyuan greeted Wei Yang politely and enthusiastically, and did not forget to pass a message to Zhao Youting.

To outsiders and even Liu Shishi and Zhao Youting, this was a normal exchange of pleasantries. At most, Gao wanted to show Zhao Duo's face.

This is also normal. Wei Yang is a big boss in the industry. If Gao has this kind of connection, he must bring him to visit the big boss, so he must pay more attention to his face.

But I can't help someone's guilty conscience. Every word I say seems to have a point, and I keep mentioning it in my heart.

But after Gao Yuanyuan left, Wei Yang breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and then felt something was wrong.

I feel guilty. You are willing to do what I want, but I don't use any means. Her surname is Liu Shishi, who has such a calm demeanor. Why should I be afraid of Zhao Youting?

"It's not shameless enough."

Boss Wei couldn't help but reflect on himself. He was a scumbag enough, but not bad enough. He did too few things that broke through the bottom line. As a result, he was inexperienced and fell short of standard when he first encountered the victim.

But why is Gao Yuanyuan so skillful and bold! ?

Wei Yang was very unconvinced. He was unjustly defeated this time and was not well prepared. In the future, if he accumulates more experience and trains his mentality, he can deal with it calmly, and maybe he can be thanked by others.

Pooh!

Wei Yang suddenly reacted and spat at himself. How could such immoral things happen one after another? There would be no next time.

The traitor Cao and I are at odds with each other!

If Fan Xiaopang, Xiao Zhao or even Da Mimi were here, they might notice something unusual about Wei Yang.

But Liu Shishi is much slower in this regard. She is simply a stupid elder sister. She didn't realize that something was wrong with Wei Yang at all, and lamented the twists and turns of "Let's Get Married".

This urban romance drama was very popular last year, and its ratings once ranked among the top three of the year. Gao and co-star Huang were extremely popular.

This time, Gao Yuanyuan was nominated for Magnolia for the first time with this drama, and the outside world evaluated her even higher than Liu Shishi.

It's a pity that the other one just overturned last month, which led to the possible nomination of the emperor being replaced. Even Gao Yuanyuan lost his male partner and temporarily brought in his boyfriend to help.

"It's a pity!"

Wei Yang still had a crush on that guy, and even reminded him in a subtle way, but it was obviously of no use.

The person who made the move was too ruthless, and it was very difficult for others to pull him in. When the news finally passed, the general environment changed, and it was completely out of the question...
