Chapter 861 Intercept
“This way, no matter who has any new news, everyone can see it in the group chat. There is no need to notify each other one by one.” He Haoyan said.
“That’s a good idea.” Dong Yanzhen also expressed his full affirmation.
Therefore, Tan Jinyi added everyone into a group chat.
The investment for the second season of ‘Broken Continent’ had increased.
Tan Jinqi was no longer as cash-strapped as he was when he was shooting the first season.
The pay for the actors had increased.
The remaining production costs were still sufficient.
The special effects production was still handed over to Wei Wucai’s company.
Tan Jinqi still chose the highest level of special effects. Now that he had money, he was very confident. He directly said to Wei Wucai, “Money is not a problem!” Wei Wucai did not stand on ceremony with him and accepted the price according to the amount he should receive.
After all, the effort his employees put in was generally very high as well.
But he still gave a certain discount. While Tan Jinqi was filming, Wei Zhijian also arranged for Yuan Keqing to join the crew.
He arranged for Yuan Keqing to be the second female lead.
It was because Yuan Keqing had never filmed before, she was completely green.
Even artistes part their prime had fans.
But Yuan Keqing was not even an artiste past her prime.
No one knew her.
It was too difficult for the investors and director to let her play the female lead.
No one knew Yuan Keqing. How could the drama be promoted?
The male lead would not be willing either!
Nowadays, the competition for the roles was fierce. Moreover, when taking on a drama, besides looking at the role given to him, it also depended on the reputation and fame of the partner.
If the partner’s reputation was similar to his own, or only slightly inferior, and the person was not pretentious. When they cooperated, they had good chemistry on the publicity. After the cooperation ended, the fans did not quarrel. They cooperated happily with each other.
That would be the best.
However, among these conditions, it was also good to satisfy a few of them.
However, it was absolutely impossible for rookies who had no reputation at all.
Unless the other party brought in funds and offered him a very high price.
Then, for the sake of money, it was still possible.
Otherwise, who would be willing to help the inexperienced?
Would partnering with an unknown and inexperienced actor not be considered a demotion?
Their own fans would not be happy either.
Their brother was on the rise, so their brother had to act with reputable partners.
Even if he acted with a young actress, he had to act with a famous young actress who was reputable.
Those young actresses who had a bad reputation, do not come and cling to brother.
Wei Zhijian only wanted to answer to the Yuan family so that they would not think that he could not do anything.
It was already good enough that he could arrange for Yuan Keqing to be the second female lead.
It was absolutely impossible for him to pay for Yuan Keqing to be the first female lead.
He still wanted to make money from the Yuan family.
However, the investors still gave Wei Zhijian face.
After all, he was from the Wei family, so they had to give him face.
So they arranged for Yuan Keqing to be the second female lead.
The original second female lead had already come to the set, and she was asked to leave again.
Fortunately, the original second female lead was not famous and she did not have many fans, so she did not make a fuss.
Otherwise, if she made such an unkind interception, Yuan Keqing would be scolded to death by the netizens.
The production of this drama was not bad either. Although the male and female leads were not considered to be big hits, they were still considered to have some fame. The investors were quite optimistic about this drama, and the netizens were also looking forward to it.
The female lead was especially good at leading the drama.
Every time the female lead’s drama, could not be said to be a big hit, it was still quite popular, and the results were all quite good.
Clearly, Wei Zhijian did not randomly find a drama to fool Yuan Keqing.
He really did choose it carefully.
He did not manage to get into the cast of “Broken continent’, but the historical drama ‘Moon Shines Over the River’, could be considered a drama with some fame.
Because she was introduced by Wei Zhijian, the crew was very polite to her and the director also took good care of her.
Whether it was the staff or the actors, it was as if they did not know that she was the one who intercepted the role of the second female lead and chased the original second female lead out of the cast.
They were still very affectionate with her.
The male and female lead even got along with her as if they were good friends, laughing and joking around in the production set.
Yuan Zhengwen had even invested a sum of money into this drama.
The request was to add scenes for Yuan Keqing.
When filming, it was done separately in two groups, A and B. Yuan Keqing would only act in scenes with the male and female leads.
Therefore, the male and female leads did not know about Yuan Keqing adding scenes. They only found out about Yuan Keqing’s scenes after the editing was done and the broadcast. The overall duration was much longer than that of the male and female lead. That was something for another time to worry about.
But now, the few of them still got along well with each other on the set.
Especially when they knew that Yuan Keqing was introduced by Wei Zhijian and that she was from a rich family, more people wanted to befriend her.
Especially the male lead was especially proactive toward Yuan Keqing.
It seemed like he wanted to pull some strings.
Yuan Keqing was filming in the group and the Tan Mansion was much quieter. There was no longer the sudden visit of Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing. Tan Mo was promoted to lecturer.
The entire Beijing University was saying that she was very likely to become the youngest professor.
Tan Mo finished writing the script and handed it to Tan Jinqi. Tan Jiinqi did not let her enter the set.
Tan Mo stayed in B City and focused on Tan Jinyi’s matters.
Tan Jinyi had read the first season of ‘Broken Continent’ four times.
He had also read the script Tan Mo had given him for the second season in advance. This allowed Tan Jinyi to have a deeper understanding of ‘Broken Continent’ and to have a more accurate grasp of the overall tone of the second season.
Just like Tan Jinsheng, Tan Jinyi also got himself a house to work in.
Recently, he had been living in that house in seclusion, staying there and not going home.
The Tan Mansion, including Tan Mo, was afraid of disturbing him so they did not dare to take the initiative to contact him.
He was afraid of interrupting his creative train of thought. He only needed three meals a day, which Auntie Guo made and had the chauffeur send it over.
They were placed on the cabinet at the door of his studio.
Tan Jinyi only needed to open the door of his studio to get them.
Xu Mingzhen’s only worry was that Tan Jinyi would forget to eat the three meals that were delivered to his door.
If his mealtime was not fixed like this, missing meals occasionally, would his body not be damaged?
But she did not dare to call and disturb him.
Xu Mingzhen could only ask the chauffeur every time he came back whether the previous food box was empty after delivering the food.
Xu Mingzhen was slightly relieved when she got the chauffeur’s affirmative answer.
Tan Jinyi was not easily contacted, so Tan Mo was free again. She could be focused on teaching at school.
She even had time to play with Ming Yeqing and Qin Muye.
But compared to Tan Mo who was the busy one before, it was now Ming Yeqing who was busy.
Although Tan Mo would also go to Professor Yue’s laboratory occasionally to help, the only ones she really devoted herself to research for were Professor Gu and Professor Tang.
She was just a helper to Professor Yue. When she was free, she would go and help.
