Chapter 433: Lin Desheng

After He Yunlan learned that Lu Yan He's new movie had found a girl from Hezhou to be the lead actress, he was pleasantly surprised, laughed twice, and patted Lu Yan He on the shoulder.

Liu Yiyi helped He Yunlan say what he wanted to say.

"It is our blessing that you are in Hezhou."

Lu Yan He hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Sister-in-law, you are exaggerating, you are exaggerating, I don't deserve it."

For He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi, the development of Hezhou in the past two years and the role Lu Yan He played in it—others might find reasons from various angles and aspects to argue for Lu Yan He's non-necessity, but the couple knew clearly how much Lu Yan He had done and what the things he did meant.

This time, Lu Yan He found a girl from Hezhou to be the lead actress. If this girl was a bit lucky and became famous overnight, with her relationship as a native of Hezhou, not only could Hezhou be known by more people, but in the future, it would be equivalent to having a native spokesperson for Hezhou in all aspects.

Lu Yan He actually didn't choose Zhang Ruozhi for this point. No matter how much he liked Hezhou and wanted to make his own contribution to the development of Hezhou, he wouldn't specifically find a girl in Hezhou to be the lead actress because of this.

But if it could incidentally play such a role, Lu Yan He would also be happy to see it happen.

Until the contract was signed and no accident happened, Lu Yan He's heart finally relaxed.

Before this, Lu Yan He had actually been quite worried about what accidents might happen.

What if Zhang's mother went back on her word again, or some other change occurred... Anyway, before filming a play, any situation could happen.

Lu Yan He went to see Zhang Ruozhi again.

"Ruoruo, I will give you the script first. You familiarize yourself with the script first. Later, when you finish the exam and it's summer vacation, you come to Yuming. I will hire an acting teacher to teach you acting," Lu Yan He said, "In addition, I also want to say a word to you seriously: don't worry about not acting well because you have never acted or studied acting, and there is no need for you to do any miscellaneous preparations. You just need to memorize the lines, and leave the rest to the professional teacher. We chose you because we took a fancy to this most natural thing in you right now, the thing that hasn't been trained."

Zhang Ruozhi nodded.

Lu Yan He thought of something else, smiled, and said: "If your good friend Liu Lingmeng is also willing to come together, you can also call her. I will arrange your food and accommodation in Yuming, so you don't have to worry about life matters."

Facing Lu Yan He's care, Zhang Ruozhi cautiously held her two hands in front of her, nodded silently, and said okay.

Lu Yan He turned to look at Chen Siqi.

Chen Siqi nodded, signaling that the rest would be left to her.

After all, there was a gender difference, and Lu Yan He was not single. If he showed too much concern and care for Zhang Ruozhi, he and Chen Siqi were upright and not afraid of shadows, but they were also afraid that Zhang Ruozhi would think too much.

Chen Siqi and Zhang Ruozhi walked around the school playground and chatted.

Lu Yan He walked around the school alone.

He felt that this campus was very beautiful, a beauty with the memory of time. It was an old-style building, not so modernized. Especially when the sun shone down, the large area of green plants in the campus made this campus look lush with greenery.

At noon, there were many students in the school. Lu Yan He wore sunglasses and a hat and walked through them, naturally attracting many curious gazes. However, everyone was just looking curiously, but no one took the initiative to come forward.

Even though quite a few people had recognized that he was Lu Yan He and were excitedly taking pictures of him with their phones.

The more Lu Yan He looked, the more he felt that *Love Letter* should actually be filmed here.

The story of *Love Letter* must not happen in a city with a very developed economy. In a city with a developed economy, there is no soil to grow that kind of simple and somewhat pure flower.

Lu Yan He took many photos and videos and sent them to Luo Yuzhong and Liu Bige, asking for their opinions.

Luo Yuzhong said: "This campus is very beautiful."

Liu Bige said: "This school is beautiful, but I see that the windows are all very small. You have to think about the lighting problem. For indoor scenes, light is a big problem."

Why do many plays build sets in the studio to film? Because this is actually convenient for filming.

For film and television works, the importance of light is no less than style to a work.

If the light is good, the picture looks good no matter how it is filmed.

If the light is not good, no matter how beautiful the picture itself is, it will be a mess when filmed.

Lu Yan He asked: "Is there a way to solve this?"

Although in his impression, the picture of the movie *Love Letter* itself was very dark.

Liu Bige said: "Either make artificial light sources outside. Technology can solve it, but if you want to film natural light, then the filming time for many of your scenes is very limited. If you haven't finished filming, you can only wait."

Lu Yan He understood Liu Bige's meaning.

This technical problem can definitely be solved, it just depends on whether Lu Yan He is willing to compromise. If he is not willing to compromise, then the filming requirements will be very high. Perhaps in a day, the suitable time period for filming is only two to three hours. As the sun rises and sets, after that point, the light won't work.

Lu Yan He thought for a while and said: "Why don't you bring your photography team to take a look?"

Liu Bige: "... Are you serious?"

"Serious," Lu Yan He said, "If possible, I want to put *Love Letter* here to film."

Liu Bige: "Then you also have to consider another problem. *Love Letter* also has quite a few winter scenes, the kind with heavy snow. Are you sure that Hezhou, a southern city, can have heavy snow in winter?"

Lu Yan He: "Oh! I have to ask."

He hadn't considered it at all.

Liu Bige: "... Without me, if you can film this movie, I think it's a ghost."

Lu Yan He said: "That's why I said, I must ask you to help."

"Hehe," Liu Bige said, "I don't film my own plays, but come to be your photography director."

"Not just photography director," Lu Yan He immediately said, "You are also one of the producers. You have the responsibility to help film this movie well."

"Go to hell, you forced me onto this pirate ship."

"You are already on it, why do you still care how you got on it." Lu Yan He had already practiced his face to be thick anyway.

On the way Liu Bige brought the photography team to Hezhou, Lu Yan He had to return to Yuming first.

He had two days of classes later.

In the second semester of the junior year, although there were fewer classes than the last semester, there were still some, unlike the senior year, where there were almost no classes.

What is worth rejoicing is that Lu Yan He had almost finished the credits for his elective courses last semester, so he only had the pressure of compulsory courses this semester.

Lu Yan He returned to school, and Miao Yue complained to him: "You got Liu Bige over there, but you came back yourself."

Lu Yan He said: "After class, I will take you over and invite you to play in Hezhou for two days."

Hearing this, Miao Yue immediately laughed.

"That's fine."

Lu Yan He asked Miao Yue: "How is the movie you wrote for Liu Bige? The script."

Miao Yue said: "It's not because I have to find you to be the lead actor, so I modified it several versions. I am not satisfied with it myself, let alone showing it to him. Sigh, I have never written a spy war, let me write this story. Although the story was written by Liu Bige himself, it is still very difficult to write it into a script. I always find it very difficult to find an accurate expression."

Lu Yan He asked: "Then do you want to cooperate with other screenwriters? If you are not good at this."

Miao Yue said: "Anyway, he still has to film that movie of Li Zhibai in the second half of the year, so there is no rush. I will torture myself first. If I really can't torture it out, then I will find foreign aid."

Lu Yan He: "You are challenging yourself."

"Yes, of course I have to challenge myself," Miao Yue said bluntly, "I am a professional Chinese department student, I don't allow myself to ask others for help as soon as I encounter a problem."

Lu Yan He gave Miao Yue a thumbs up.

"You are amazing."

Miao Yue: "That's not as amazing as you. Your script was written in a flash; you are simply a tentacle monster."

Lu Yan He smiled.

Miao Yue asked curiously: "Yan He, I am really curious, how can you think of so many stories in your head? Every time I see you launch a new work, I feel desperate. Compared to you, I feel like I am wasting time."

"If you say that, I guess quite a few people will want to beat you up," Lu Yan He said bluntly, "I have written many scripts, but the movies I wrote the screenplays for have never won the Jury Grand Prize at an international film festival."

With this grand prize in hand, Miao Yue, as a screenwriter, could be said to have already achieved a very remarkable achievement. She herself had said that many movie companies had come to find her, and there were projects that wanted to invite her to be a screenwriter. However, Miao Yue herself was a person who worked slowly and carefully. Furthermore, she felt that her experience in writing scripts was not enough, so she didn't take any of them.

Lu Yan He said: "Actually, if you can write the script for the spy war movie before you graduate from university, your creative speed is not slow at all, two movies in four years."

Miao Yue: "It depends on who you compare with. Compared with you, comparing people with people will make people angry."

Lu Yan He laughed loudly.

Miao Yue said: "My long novel is also going to start serialization on *Jump Up*."

"Um, I saw it," Lu Yan He said, "I have finished reading the first three chapters. I didn't expect that you would actually write a story that happened in ancient times."

"Because I wanted to write a story that was completely different from what was around me, I could only put the time of occurrence in ancient times," Miao Yue said.

Lu Yan He nodded.

"Strive to be able to write both the novel and the script this year, and I will be satisfied," Miao Yue said, "Graduating next year, and then I have to study for a master's degree, I guess I will be even busier."

"Are you staying at this school to study for a master's degree?" Lu Yan He asked.

Miao Yue said: "I haven't thought about it yet. I don't know whether to go to Yuming or stay at Zhenhua."

"Can you get the qualification to be recommended for admission to a master's program?"

"Yes, my grade ranking is in the top 10%, so it will be my turn no matter what," Miao Yue said bluntly, "Actually, there is another choice, which is to go abroad to study for a master's degree. I am also thinking about whether to go to the UK to study for a master's degree, because I am also very interested in British literature. If I can go to a completely different context to live and study, I think it is also a very interesting experience."

Lu Yan He said: "My roommate is going to the UK for an exchange for a year. Why do you all want to go to the UK so much?"

"You have to go to a country with cultural and historical heritage. Otherwise, go to the United States? I hate that country; it is both prosperous and vain," Miao Yue said.

Lu Yan He smiled noncommittally.

Everyone has their own opinions.

However, the UK is indeed a country that will interest many people who are interested in history and culture.

"Have you discussed this matter with Liu Bige?"

"Discussed it, he is okay with wherever I go."

"You go to the UK, and you and him will be in different countries. Don't you mind?"

"He said if I go to the UK to study, after he finishes filming the movie, he will also come to the UK," Miao Yue said, "He is already very familiar with Europe."

"That's true." Liu Bige himself returned from France.

Liu Bige said that he was also familiar with the UK. Basically, the film and television circles in Europe were quite familiar with each other, and there was a meaning of holding together for warmth.

Lu Yan He: "Anyway, you haven't thought clearly that you will definitely be a writer in the future."

"Um," Miao Yue nodded, "Just... I feel that in this era, if you want to be a writer, it is still quite difficult to make yourself rich, and I don't want to make myself too poor."

"Poor? Your novel *Late Spring* sold more than 100,000 copies in its reprint, and the movie has always had dividends for you. How can it be poor?"

"This is only for the past year or two. Five years later, ten years later?" Miao Yue said, "It's too unstable, precarious."

Lu Yan He couldn't laugh or cry.

Miao Yue's thinking in this regard was indeed not the same as Lu Yan He's. Of course, it was normal for her to think so.

Miao Yue said: "Let's see. Anyway, there are still several years of effort to let me think clearly about what I want to do."

"Um," Lu Yan He nodded.

Miao Yue smiled again: "And, maybe this novel serialized on *Jump Up* might become a super bestseller."

Lu Yan He: "I am looking forward to it."

During the two days of returning to school for classes, Lu Yan He went out for a meal with his roommates.

It was really the second semester of the junior year. Everyone was making decisions for their future. Lu Yan He didn't expect that in the end, all his roommates chose to study for a master's degree.

Lu Yan He also learned at this time that because Xiao Jing went to the UK for an exchange, he still broke up with his girlfriend Han Sha in the end.

It made people sigh.

Xiao Jing said: "When I come back from the UK, you will all have graduated."

Zhou Mukai: "I am still in Yuming."

Mao Jiayang also said: "I am also still in Yuming."

Lu Yan He: "Me too."

Xiao Jing: "..."

Lu Yan He said with a smile: "When you come back, we will hold a welcome party for you." Xiao Jing: "Then it's settled, don't break your promise."

"Whoever breaks their promise will directly send a red envelope in the group to pay the bill."

"No, what if I am filming?" Lu Yan He suddenly realized a problem.

"Then that counts as you breaking your promise."

"..." Lu Yan He.

Lu Yan He finished eating with everyone and went back to the dormitory together.

Mao Jiayang hooked Lu Yan He's neck and said: "Are you going to Hezhou again tonight?"

"Yes, I have to scout the location with the photography team tomorrow."

Mao Jiayang: "Busy."

The four of them walked to the downstairs of the dormitory, and what Lu Yan He didn't expect was that someone was actually waiting for him.

It was Wang Xiao.

"Senior?" Lu Yan He looked at him with some surprise.

Wang Xiao saw him and waved his hand with a smile.

Mao Jiayang and the others went back first.

Wang Xiao said to Lu Yan He: "Are you very busy recently? I asked you twice before, and you weren't there."

"Um," Lu Yan He nodded, "I have been staying in Hezhou these days, preparing for the movie I am going to film."

Wang Xiao asked: "You are the director of this movie yourself. This matter hasn't been made public yet, right?"

"Not yet," Lu Yan He shook his head, "Senior, why are you waiting for me downstairs?"

Wang Xiao: "I am not specifically waiting for you. I am graduating soon and need to change dormitories. My graduate dormitory just happened to be changed to your building, so I came over to take a look, and just happened to see you walking over."

Lu Yan He was a bit surprised: "What a coincidence."

"Yes," Wang Xiao said, "So I want to ask you, can my things be placed at your place for a while during the summer vacation? I am going out during the summer vacation and won't be in Yuming, but my things can't be moved to the new dormitory in advance."

Lu Yan He nodded immediately and said: "Okay. Are there many things? I won't be in Yuming during the summer vacation. I will clear my bed for you, and you can put your things on my bed first."

Wang Xiao nodded and said: "That's enough, it's mainly to find a place to put some things in my dormitory."

"Where are you going for summer vacation?" Lu Yan He asked him.

Wang Xiao said: "I am preparing to go to Australia with Miaomiao. We have a student summer camp activity there, and we are going for about a month."

Lu Yan He nodded, "That's quite interesting."

Wang Xiao: "It's a pity, we originally thought you would go."

"Me? I didn't even know what this was, but I couldn't go anyway. I have to film this summer."

"You basically go to the crew to film every winter and summer vacation," Wang Xiao said, "Model worker."

Lu Yan He: "Don't talk about me, when have you ever really been resting during the holidays."

Wang Xiao put all his focus on the Youth Association.

Even during the winter and summer vacations, he didn't let himself rest for a while.

They stood downstairs in the dormitory and chatted for a while.

Wang Xiao suddenly asked: "Yan He, was there a play before that looked for you and Miaomiao to act? She told me that she almost went to act in a movie."

Lu Yan He said: "Um, there was a play that looked for us before, but later because of some reasons, it wasn't filmed."

Wang Xiao: "So it was true."

"What's wrong?" Lu Yan He asked, "Do you think it was fake?"

"It's not that, it's just that I was a bit surprised, because she said that the director chased her and begged her to play the lead actress, but she had no interest and refused many times," Wang Xiao said, "I saw in the news that many actors fight to the death to play the lead actress, so I felt it was a bit incredible."

Lu Yan He: "This matter is true. That director was even treated as a hooligan by her."

Wang Xiao laughed in astonishment.

Lu Yan He also laughed.

"This industry is like this. If you are taken fancy to by a director, you are the darling of fate. If you don't have such an opportunity, you can only fight and wait," Lu Yan He said, "But if she wants to act and wants to play the lead actress, it's just a matter of one sentence."

"Ah?" Wang Xiao looked at Lu Yan He with some surprise, "You mean, if she wants to act, you will help her find a lead actress role at any time?"

"Me? Where do I have that ability." Lu Yan He shook his head.

"Then why is it a matter of one sentence if she wants to act?" Wang Xiao asked with a puzzled face.

Lu Yan He said: "Beijiguang Video is her family's. Her dad is the boss of Beijiguang Video. Don't you know?"

Wang Xiao widened his eyes in disbelief, his face full of incredible expression.

Thus, Lu Yan He also knew that Wang Xiao actually really didn't know.

"..."

Why didn't Lin Miaomiao tell Wang Xiao? -

Zheng Huairen accompanied Lin Desheng to finish attending an industry forum and walked out, with others following behind them.

The keynote speech "How can long dramas break the situation under the attack of short videos?" delivered by Lin Desheng at the forum just now resonated with many people on the scene, and the effect was quite good.

This draft was personally handled by Zheng Huairen for Lin Desheng.

Zheng Huairen was full of smiles and said to Lin Desheng: "Mr. Lin, just now on the stage, your every move was calm and composed. The face of Mr. He from Bingyuan was not very good."

Lin Desheng waved his hand, not picking up Zheng Huairen's words at all, but asked: "How are they doing with the 'Accumulated Power Plan' that Chen Siqi and the others prepared to do, which you brought over before?"

"The recruitment order is about to be issued," Zheng Huairen said, "We also told the few newcomer directors we signed to actively participate in this competition and strive to get into the top three."

Lin Desheng said: "If Chen Siqi's idea is done well and we can really discover a few good directors later, you must sign them immediately. *Jump Up* doesn't do this kind of thing themselves, don't let Bingyuan's people get there first, especially don't just focus on promoting the directors we signed ourselves, and end up driving all the potential people to Bingyuan."

"Don't worry, I will definitely follow your instructions and keep an eye on those good seedlings," Zheng Huairen said.

"I also haven't eaten with these two young people for a while. You arrange it, make an appointment, and let's sit together and have a good chat," Lin Desheng said, "Don't look at them as young; every step they take is particularly accurate, and their vision is also accurate. The things they make are what the market likes most. We have to learn more."

Zheng Huairen said: "Yes, I think so too. I specifically asked Jiang Zixin to dock with them, just to let Jiang Zixin learn more. *My Own Swordsman* and *Squid Game* are both her responsibility."

Lin Desheng gave an 'um'.

He suddenly remembered something and looked back.

His secretary immediately understood and walked two steps quickly to Lin Desheng's side.

Lin Desheng asked: "How is Miaomiao at school now?"

The secretary said: "Miss Miaomiao has classes all day today and hasn't left school."

Lin Desheng nodded and said: "Let's go to school to see her first before returning to the company later."

The secretary nodded and immediately went to send a message to the driver to adjust the subsequent itinerary.

Zheng Huairen knew that Lin Desheng doted on this daughter of his very much.

This daughter of his has had a dedicated driver and bodyguard since she was a child, and her growth environment was like a princess.

Involving family private matters, Zheng Huairen didn't speak.

After Lin Desheng finished explaining to the secretary, he continued: "Mr. Lin, regarding this new movie that Lu Yan He is preparing, according to the long-term cooperation agreement we signed with him before, it is already outside our scope of cooperation. Moreover, he now also refuses investment from other film and television companies, saying that during the production stage, he won't let any film and television company or platform intervene, and will look for a distributor after filming. Should we communicate with him in advance?"

Lin Desheng asked back: "Communicate about what? Distribution? Since when did our Beijiguang start doing movie distribution?"

Zheng Huairen was choked.

? ￠o

"We indeed don't do movie distribution, but we can still take the broadcast rights of the video platform in advance," Zheng Huairen said, "Almost every company in the country is grabbing them."

Lin Desheng: "You have been dealing with Yan He for so long. Do you think he is the kind of person who deliberately keeps things in his arms and doesn't sell them, just to let others bid?"

Zheng Huairen gave an 'uh', "No."

"Since you also know he is not, it shows that since he decided not to let other parties intervene before filming is finished, he is serious. What is the use of you going to talk to him about these things now?" Lin Desheng said, "It's better to wait until their movie starts filming and send them some fruit, milk tea, and coffee, which is more useful."

Zheng Huairen: "..."

Lin Desheng: "Compared to his new movie, these three plays *Rouge*, *My Own Swordsman*, and *Squid Game* are the key points you need to focus on at this stage. If these three plays are cooperated well, are you still worried that Lu Yan He won't be willing to continue cooperating with us?"

Zheng Huairen: "Mr. Lin has high insights."

"You should spend more effort on doing things well. Like that Zhong Benshuo from maxine, who only knows how to engage in interpersonal relationships all day long, but doesn't do content well, which is simply putting the cart before the horse," Lin Desheng said, "What did our Beijiguang rise up by? By engaging in interpersonal relationships?"

Zheng Huairen: "..."

He said: "*Rouge* is going to the Hexi Film Festival this time, and our Beijiguang is also one of the producers. Director Wang Zhong is also asking if you have time to attend?"

"You go," Lin Desheng said, "It won't be too late to ask me if I have time when a movie led by our Beijiguang is shortlisted for an international film festival."

Zheng Huairen thought to himself, what is wrong with Lin Desheng today?

Why does he rebuke him once every time he says something?

Lin Desheng doesn't usually have this style.

Zheng Huairen was completely puzzled.

He sent Lin Desheng into the car with a confused head. After the car drove away, he quietly heaved a sigh of relief and asked the people around him.

"Did Mr. Lin take the wrong medicine today?"

The people around him smiled and reminded: "Mr. Lin has been angry recently because of his daughter's dating."

Zheng Huairen suddenly realized.

So that was it.

"Miaomiao didn't tell you, maybe she was afraid you would have pressure?" Lu Yan He speculated.

Originally, they had already finished saying they were going back to their respective homes, but because they suddenly discovered that Wang Xiao didn't even know Lin Miaomiao's family background, the two of them started circling around the campus again.

Wang Xiao hadn't recovered yet.

"So, her family background is actually very good?" Wang Xiao looked at Lu Yan He in surprise, "Then in front of me, why has she never shown it?"

Compared with Lin Miaomiao, Wang Xiao's family background was as ordinary as it could be.

He suddenly realized that his relationship with Lin Miaomiao was the relationship between a poor boy and a rich princess, and his heart inexplicably skipped a beat.

Lu Yan He said: "I am not very familiar with her either, but she is not a person who likes to show her superiority. When I first met her, she didn't show any superiority. She herself is a very proud, picky, and straightforward person, but she has never used her family background to throw her weight around."

Wang Xiao took a deep breath.

"My brain is a bit messy now."

"Did you shrink back because Lin Miaomiao's family background is very unusual?" Lu Yan He looked at Wang Xiao in surprise.

"What shrinking back, it's two different things. I am shocked, shocked, and shocked now," Wang Xiao smacked his lips, "Suddenly I feel that the pressure is huge."

The four words "pressure is huge" were written sincerely on Wang Xiao's face.

Lu Yan He could very well understand his mood at this moment.

Just when he wanted to say something, Lu Yan He suddenly saw a familiar figure in front.

At this moment, his heart was full of shock.

How could it be such a coincidence that he and Wang Xiao were still talking about Lin Miaomiao, and Lin Desheng suddenly appeared in front of them?

Lu Yan He subconsciously turned to look at Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao didn't understand and asked: "Why are you looking at me?"

"Uh, in front, the man in the dark blue suit in front, that is Lin Miaomiao's dad."

Wang Xiao's face changed instantly. ===== CHAPTER 434 =====
