Chapter 757
Giving He Wuyou Support
Jinli initially listened to their complaints with the intention of exploring their situation.
As I listened, I felt something was increasingly off.
Jinli looked at the two of them speechlessly, "You didn't come here to ask me questions, but to show off your love to me, didn't you?"
Qi Guanmingzhu and Xi Mengze exchanged a glance and said in unison, "No, we're troubled too!"
Jinli nodded. "Yes, yes, you two have been together for months without ever arguing. What will you do if problems arise in your relationship later?"
"Another concern is that we've been together for a few months, and my boyfriend is very indulgent and spoils me in everything. What if he spoils me too much? How am I supposed to answer that?"
She shrugged: "I don't know how to solve your problem either. How about we have a group meeting and bring all your boyfriends in for a chat to resolve it?"
Jinli smiled slightly: "There's no problem that can't be solved through communication. If it still can't be solved, then we'll have a second, a third, or even countless more rounds of communication."
Xi Mengze chuckled and said shyly, "This is my first time dating, and I don't know if this way of getting along with Yan Xingdong is normal."
But I suddenly realized that everyone's approach to relationships is different; there's no single, universally accepted template for love.
Qi Guanmingzhu said with some hesitation, "I feel that these days have been too wonderful, so wonderful that it's almost unreal. I never knew that having another person in my life could make my life so vibrant."
“My schedule used to be quite full, but after Chen Lin joined me, I realized that my previous schedule was just child’s play. He has so much energy!”
He loved taking me out to play. At first, I thought I would resist, but I later realized that I also longed for lively scenes outside. Maybe that's why I always go to various exhibitions.
Jinli held Qiguan Mingzhu's hand and said sincerely, "I think your biggest problem is that you are afraid of losing things, but this is not your fault. Mengmeng has this problem too."
Because of the fear of future harm, they can't help but cut their losses and avoid starting a future with anyone.
She paused for a moment, then continued, "But in my opinion, regardless of whether I will be hurt in the future, enjoying the good life I have now is already the most beautiful memory of my life."
I used to be in poor health and often teetered on the brink of death, so I live life to the fullest, hoping to see more beautiful and wonderful places in the world, and I don't reject any new relationships.
Some relationships are fleeting, only lasting a short time, but others, no matter the twists and turns, will always stay by your side.
Just like her relationship with Gu Cheng, it was peaceful and warm, and it came about naturally.
She doesn't need a passionate love affair, because she's no longer at the age where she was so eager for love.
As you experience more things, you'll realize that the most important thing in life is the ordinary.
It's such a wonderful thing to have someone by your side who is there for you through thick and thin, sharing every meal and season, witnessing your growth and your low points.
The most enduring expression of love is to stay by your side.
Jinli's words made Xi Mengze and Qi Guanmingzhu think.
The next second, Jinli changed her tone and said with a smile:
"However, Fangjie called you two here not to be my love mentors, but to advise you to put away your love-struck minds and get back to work."
It's summer vacation now, the most important time of the year to meet KPIs. You can't afford to slack off any longer.
When it came to work, both Xi Mengze and Qi Guanmingzhu were a little embarrassed.
Well, ever since they started dating, they've both been a bit distracted from work.
They find dating fun and want to experience it more.
Besides, both they and the others are financially independent.
Once people have money, they no longer have financial needs, so they seek spiritual needs.
Being able to be with my loved one makes every day so enjoyable, it feels like Valentine's Day.
Moreover, both Xi Mengze and Qi Guanmingzhu noticed that they had all gained weight!
The weight gain wasn't just one or two pounds, but a whopping five or six pounds!
They are female celebrities who pay great attention to their figure. Chen Lin and Yan Xingdong also reunite with March Music every year, and they also pay great attention to their figure.
However, they still couldn't escape the troubles of "happy weight gain".
When Sui Lingfang saw how much weight they had gained, and that they would look bloated on camera if they continued like this, she quickly sent them to Jinli to help them settle down.
But Jinli...
She didn't have any good solutions either.
In their relationship, Gu Cheng also enjoyed feeding her, and she would reciprocate by feeding Gu Cheng in return.
However, her body is sustained by divine power, which will keep her figure at its peak.
As for Gu Cheng, one can only say that he achieved strict body management through extreme self-discipline.
So before she joined the cast of "Dawn 2", Jinli took on the task of waking them up, getting up with her every day to exercise.
In the past few days, besides keeping an eye on Qi Guanmingzhu and Xi Mengze, making sure they focused on their work and prepared for the intense workload ahead, Jinli also personally handled one other matter.
That is to provide support for He Wuyou.
-
Filming for "Desperate Counterattack" has finished, and He Wuyou has returned to Chenxi Entertainment with the disbandment of the crew.
After Fangjie reminded him, he deliberately slowed down the completion speed and made multiple revisions to some details.
After dragging it out for a while, it finally couldn't be delayed any longer.
He Wuyou announced that he had reached the end of the revision process and that "The Invisible Secret" was officially finalized.
Of course, once the draft is finalized, it is not entirely unchangeable.
Many scripts have problems that are discovered during filming, and then changes are made on set.
Therefore, when unedited photos of celebrities from film and television crews are leaked, it is often discovered that their scripts contain many extra pages, which are scenes that were temporarily modified.
However, since the draft has been finalized, YiYi Media, as a partner, should be notified so that they can provide their opinions, which He Wuyou can then consider.
At Chenxi Entertainment.
Jinli made a special trip to the company for a meeting to discuss the script for "The Invisible Secret".
The people in the meeting room were all acquaintances.
After hearing He Wuyou's progress report, Fangjie first sighed, and then reprimanded him mercilessly.
"I thought I had made my point clear to you last time. You absolutely must have your manuscript reviewed by Yiyi Media and get it approved by them."
Back then, I was already hinting that you should contact Yiyi Media, but now you've dragged it out for so long, silently revised it for so long, and are telling me it's finalized.
You're telling me again that Yiyi Media doesn't know yet, what am I supposed to say?
Sui Lingfang let out a long sigh.
Jinli glanced at her, sensing her helplessness. After sighing, Sui Lingfang asked, "Didn't I assign someone to handle communication between the two parties? Haven't you contacted him?"
He Wuyou nervously clenched his clothes and said in a low voice, "I did contact them, but not many times. It was mostly Yiyi Media asking me questions, and then I answered them."
Sui Lingfang's temple throbbed with a vein, and she reached out to press it down.
"Since Yiyi Media contacted you first, won't they ask about the script?"
It's impossible for Yiyi Media not to ask about the script.
Last time she threw a huge tantrum, accusing them of not rigorously reviewing the script, which led to a discrepancy in information between the two sides.
Before their script was even finalized, Yiyi Media excitedly went to find the filming crew.
He Wuyou said in a low voice, "They asked me for the script, but I refused because the script wasn't finished yet."
Sui Lingfang frowned: "Why not give them to them?"
“Your script is not perfect yet. Give it to them in advance so they can give you feedback sooner. Then you can revise it based on their feedback. Isn’t that much easier?”
Now that you've finalized the script, they'll give you feedback, and you'll have to revise it repeatedly. It would have been better to revise it from the beginning.
He Wuyou said reluctantly, "I don't want to change the script for them. My ideas don't match theirs, and I'm worried that we'll argue if we have to make major changes to the plot."
Sui Lingfang wanted to say something more, but Jinli spoke up at that moment.
"Sister Fang, it's the right thing to reduce contact with Yiyi Media before the script is finalized."
Sui Lingfang's expression softened somewhat, and she asked in her eyes, "What do you mean?"
Jinli smiled and said, "We found He Wuyou to write the script precisely because Yiyi Media didn't have a qualified screenwriter and we were worried about their ability to write scripts."
Therefore, I think there are significant problems within One Hundred Million Media regarding scripts. Although they have a strict script review process, what kind of films have they approved in recent years?
"There isn't a single film that has achieved both critical acclaim and high viewership... no, to be precise, there isn't a single film with good critical acclaim."
A few shows did get decent viewership, but they didn't break out because of script quality or plot; instead, they relied on various scandals and controversies.
“So,” Jinli said frankly, “before the script is officially finalized, I think it’s right to reduce the interference from Yiyi Media.”
The script is now finalized, the general direction is set, and it will be submitted to Yiyi Media for review so that the process can continue.
As for the opinions from Yiyi Media, I don't think we need to take them too seriously. Let He Wuyou handle everything himself.
Now that Jinli has spoken, the tone of this meeting has been set.
Even Jinli thought it was fine, and Sui Lingfang followed her lead in everything.
After all, her pursuit of perfection stemmed from Jinli.
As the meeting ended and everyone else gradually left, only Jinli and Sui Lingfang remained in the meeting room.
Sui Lingfang then revealed her worries and said hesitantly:
"I know you have high hopes for He Wuyou's abilities, but he's just a new screenwriter after all. Are you so sure that his scripts are good?"
Jinli shrugged and said calmly, "I'm not sure."
"what?"
She smiled and said, "I admire He Wuyou's abilities. I think it's amazing that he can write such a script when he has only just become a screenwriter."
But a newcomer is a newcomer; newcomers bring great uncertainty. They might bring us extreme profits, or they might cause our investment to fail.
Sui Lingfang nodded. There are always two sides to every coin; there is no project that guarantees a profit without any risk.
Jinli said, "But compared to the fact that He Wuyou is a newcomer, I am more worried about Yiyi Media's judgment in trusting a new screenwriter."
Sui Lingfang choked up.
On second thought, she understood.
He Wuyou may not be reliable, but Yiyi Media is definitely not.
Its past achievements have already shown everyone what kind of company it is.
Sui Lingfang asked in a deep voice, "Then what should we do next?"
Should we just submit He Wuyou's script directly to Yiyi Media for thorough review and suggestions, or should we simply go through the motions?
She was worried that the people from Yiyi Media would take her too seriously and wouldn't be able to figure out what Chenxi Entertainment meant.
When Chenxi offered suggestions, they did their best to provide them. However, if the suggestions were not followed, they would make excuses, act coy, and even throw tantrums.
That would be a losing proposition.
Sui Lingfang felt that the people at YiYi Media didn't seem very shrewd.
Jinli smiled gently.
"Let them review it. This drama is a collaboration between the two parties, so the people from Yiyi Media will definitely be involved in the review. Let them review it."
"However, before the review, He Wuyou has to make an appearance at Yiyi Media to let everyone know that he is working for Chenxi Entertainment."
Sui Lingfang's eyes darkened slightly. "Are you trying to elevate his status in public so that the people at Yiyi Media won't dare to underestimate him?"
Jinli nodded.
"If we just hand over He Wuyou's script like this, they'll definitely feel uncomfortable when they see that it was written by a new screenwriter who resigned earlier."
Even if you don't intend to find fault, you'll unconsciously harbor that thought.
"To prevent this from happening, I think it's necessary to take He Wuyou out and show his face, so that others in the industry know that he is our newly signed screenwriter."
"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, all the scripts he writes will be developed by Morning Light Entertainment in the future, and it's time to reveal his identity."
Sui Lingfang breathed a sigh of relief. "I understand what you mean. No wonder you're joining the crew the day after tomorrow and you even came back to the company for a meeting today. You wanted to pave the way for him before he joined the crew."
This is something that not only Jinli can do, but she can do it too.
But she knew that the effect of her recommendation was different from that of Jinli's recommendation.
Sui Lingfang looked intently at Jinli: "Is He Wuyou really worth going to such lengths? If his scripts fail in the future, it will be your reputation that suffers."
Jinli said calmly, "It's okay, I don't care. No one can win all the time. If I really fall, it's a good thing."
“Besides,” she smiled faintly, “I have confidence in my judgment, and He Wuyou is worth my introduction.”
-
That same day, Sui Lingfang invited Mr. Yang, the general manager of YiYi Media, to attend a gala hosted by industry leaders that evening.
Mr. Yang asked curiously, "There are many investors at this gala. I would have gone even if you hadn't told me. Why did you specifically tell me to attend?"
Fang smiled and said, "It's Jinli's idea, and also Chenxi Entertainment's idea. We want to formally introduce the screenwriter of 'The Invisible Secret' to you." (End of Chapter)
