After coming back from Venice, Le Mingxiao kept making film appointments, and his agent Lin Chen took a bunch of scripts to him, saying that he should pick them carefully, and while there is still a schedule, it is best to join the group immediately. Lin Chen also knew that the drama in which Le Mingxiao personally served as the producer and starred would start filming at the beginning of next year, so he had already set aside the schedule for that period of time in advance.

However, the plan always can't keep up with the rapid change, just when Le Mingxiao picked the drama and was about to be anxious, Yan Duo also took a script to him, a particularly thick stack, the kind of thick that can be smashed into a hole when it falls to the ground.

Yan Duo told Sù Le Mingxiao that next year is the 30th anniversary of Starlight Media, and this drama is a tribute drama for the anniversary, and filming may start in March and April next year. Since it is a New Year's drama, it is natural to pour the strength of the whole company, and the actors are all on it, especially Le Mingxiao, Qi Yao, and Li Xin are the focus of the company at this stage, and this drama is for the three of them to take the lead.

Now Le Mingxiao is in trouble. It stands to reason that it is incumbent upon him to participate in his own drama, not to mention such an important production, but in this way, it will inevitably collide with his own drama.

After telling Yan Duo about his concerns, Yan Duo told him not to worry, just let him keep the script, and read it if he has time, as for the schedule, anyway, it's too early to say, let's talk about it then, but Yan Duo also asserted that Le Mingxiao would definitely accept this script as long as he read it.

Le Mingxiao was a little unconvinced, and said in his heart Is this script so good, it just so happens that he has nothing to do at this time, so he simply sat on the sofa in the small living room on the second floor and began to read the script, only to find that Yan Duo was not wrong, he couldn't stop at all.

This night, he stayed on the sofa to read the script, except for two trips to the bathroom in the middle, he didn't move the nest at all. When it was almost midnight, Yan Duo finished working in the study, and when he returned upstairs to rest, he passed by the living room on the second floor and found that Le Mingxiao was still there, but he changed from his previous sitting posture to simply lying on the sofa. Yan Duo went over to urge him to go back to his room to sleep, but the bear child didn't pay attention to people at all, and Yan Duo had no choice but to let him go.

Early the next morning, Yan Duo got up on time at seven o'clock, and when he was about to go downstairs, he saw that Le Mingxiao was still lying there, he knew it in his heart, but he deliberately smiled and said: "It's rare, today is actually more diligent than me." ”

Le Mingxiao turned over on the sofa and looked up at Yan Duo, only then did Yan Duo find that he had a pair of red rabbit eyes, and there were tears on his face that had not been wiped off, and half of the box of tissues had been used. Yan Duo was stunned for a moment, and then the smile on his lips deepened.

"I'll just say you'll like it. ”

"This script is too good, isn't it?" Le Mingxiao sat up from the sofa, pulled out another tissue, blew his nose fiercely, and continued, "This night, it made me laugh and cry, but how can the screenwriter be so ruthless, he didn't give a good ending, and he wasn't afraid that the audience would send blades to the crew." ”

"The right tragedy is the one that resonates more with the audience. Yan Duo walked to the sofa, sat down with Le Mingxiao's shoulder, and said, "How is it, have you thought about it?"

"Of course I don't want to miss such a good script. Le Mingxiao said, "But what if the schedule really hits, it doesn't seem to be very moral to play on both sides." ”

"It's all my own drama, and it's just a little more hard work when the time comes. ”

“…… Also. Le Mingxiao pouted, lowered his head and fiddled with the script in his hand, the entire script was ravaged by him in one night, he used his fingers to try to smooth out the rolled edges page by page, and suddenly looked up again and said, "By the way, the protagonists of this drama should be the three princes, which one does the company plan to let me play?"

Yan Duo said: "I have discussed with the director and screenwriter, and everyone agrees that you are the most suitable for the Seven Princes. ”

"Oh......" Le Mingxiao responded, his dark eyes rolled twice, and said, "Then I guess Li Xin must be the eldest prince, and Qi Yao is the third prince, right?"

Yan Duo nodded and said, "Haven't you always wanted to work with a good brother, and now the company will fulfill your wishes." ”

"Uh-huh!" Le Mingxiao nodded again and again, smiling with crooked eyebrows, "But these three roles look quite complicated, especially the Seven Princes, the contrast between the front and back is so big, I'm afraid I won't be able to play it well then." ”

"That's why I gave you the script a few months in advance. Yan Duo said, "It's time for you to challenge yourself, you can't always play a good child and a good student, right?" Seeing that Le Mingxiao's expression was still a little tangled, Yan Duo touched his unkempt hair and said, "Don't think so much, I have time for you to study the script, go take a shower first, and prepare to go downstairs for breakfast." ”

“…… All right. "That's all it can be.

Le Mingxiao is a bit obsessive-compulsive, once he puts something in his heart, he thinks about doing his best, otherwise it will always be like a thing, so in the following days, after finishing the work that should be busy, he spent his spare time studying the script.

This is a TV series with an ancient background, tentatively named "The Winner is the King", which is the most popular ancient idol drama nowadays. The story is set in a dynasty in Chinese history where there is no zài, that is, the legendary overhead, the whole story mainly revolves around the competition for the throne between the three princes, and the whole drama is extremely large, and there are no less than 100 characters who can be named.

So this is really a big drama, playing the leading role in such a group drama, Le Mingxiao is still under a lot of pressure, not to mention that this is the first time he has come into contact with costume dramas. In his spare time, he called Li Xin and Qi Yao respectively, and found that the two had already got the script, so they occasionally discussed their understanding of the characters, especially Qi Yao's experience, and Le Mingxiao wanted to learn from him. However, to Le Mingxiao's surprise, Li Xin, who has always refused to film, was able to take over the script this time, and I don't know how his agent persuaded him. In this way, Le Mingxiao felt that if he added drama to Li Xin in the drama he made Zuò, it would not be impossible for him to do so.

However, soon, Le Mingxiao didn't have to make this calculation, because Tian Lei suddenly called over and said that he didn't plan to shoot their drama anymore.

"Why!?" Le Mingxiao was anxious on the phone, and asked one after another, "Brother Lei, what's wrong with you, why did you suddenly stop filming, the script was written, and you suddenly gave up halfway?" Brother Lei, are you worried about something, afraid that the funds are not enough, or you can't find the actors? I'm trying to figure out a way!"

"No, no. Tian Lei hurriedly said, I don't know if it was Le Mingxiao's illusion, I always felt that he was a little slurred when he spoke, "Lele, you have done a good job, it's my own problem, I ...... I got a new job, so we didn't have time to shoot that show. ”

“…… That's right. "Anyway, Tian Lei is the director of this drama, and the script is also provided by him, since he doesn't play anymore, Le Mingxiao can't force it, so he has to say, "Then I wish Brother Lei a new job." ”

There was a few seconds of silence on the other side of the phone, and after a while, Tian Lei said again: "Lele, I still want to thank you for this time, my brother is really sorry for you." ”

"What are you talking about!" Although he was lost in his heart, Le Mingxiao still said indifferently, "Everyone is their own people, this cooperation will not work, there will always be a chance in the future, right, Brother Lei?"

"Yes, there will be a chance in the future. ”

In the afternoon of the same day, when Le Mingxiao returned home after work, when he saw Yan Duo, he inevitably cried. Yan Duo did not comfort him, but poured a bucket of cold water down, "Who told you not to sign the contract in advance, are you stupid now?"

"......" Le Mingxiao almost spurted out a mouthful of blood directly, and said with a sad face, "They are all acquaintances, how did I know that he suddenly said that if he didn't shoot, he wouldn't shoot, and he didn't give any psychological preparation, and his hard work for months was so wasted." ”

"Okay, eat a trench and grow wise, this time it won't work, next time you will have experience. Yan Duo rubbed the top of Le Mingxiao's head and comforted him, "Fortunately, I didn't spend much money, and the loss was not big, so I should exercise myself." ”

“…… All right. With Yan Duo's comfort, Le Mingxiao finally felt more comfortable, he lay on the sofa, took out his mobile phone, and started to call.

"What, why don't you go down to eat?"

"If you don't eat it, you're still busy......

This TV series with the theme of national football, because it is his favorite type, Le Mingxiao has always been very attentive, and most of the time he is hands-on in forming the crew, and now the funds required in the early stage have been almost prepared, and the actors are also looking for seven, seven, eighty, eight, and even the deposit for the filming venue has been paid, Tian Lei suddenly came to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, Le Mingxiao instantly felt that the sky was about to fall, but the reality did not allow him to put it there sadly, and a bunch of messes were still waiting for him to clean up.

called one by one, to the sponsors, to the actors who had been set, to the venue providers, and some people who supported them, such as the head coach of the national table tennis, Le Mingxiao felt that he was most sorry for them......

said a lot of good things, promised to invite dinner, and said that there would definitely be opportunities to cooperate in the future, finally everyone was sensible, and they were not too embarrassed to know it, even if this matter was over. After this battle, Le Mingxiao felt that his face must have become a little thicker, and his mouth was more neat.

However, as Yan Duo said, fortunately he didn't sign a contract, otherwise he wouldn't even have enough pants......
