Chapter 530: Can you still act? (10,000-word update!)

Everything Lu Yan He said must be standard for a blockbuster hit.

In a normal social circle, it is actually rare to have so many diverse, completely different people, but in film and television, it must be like this.

Because it needs to be able to attract all kinds of audiences and make the audience base as large as possible.

In the first season, before his character was written off, Li Yuefeng was responsible for the romantic subplot with Chen Bige—in many people's subconscious, the one who has a romantic subplot with the heroine from beginning to end is the male lead.

From this point, it can actually be seen that Li Yuefeng's character setting was bound to carry the function of satisfying female fantasies.

As for Lu Yan He's male lead status, it was mainly shaped by his autism and high IQ to create a character very different from ordinary people, following another functionality. Placed in other film and television works, such functionality might just be a tool-like supporting role.

But in a theme that desperately needs high IQ to solve puzzles and break death traps, he could rightfully become the protagonist, and under the foil of the plot, release greater charm than Li Yuefeng's traditional male lead setting.

This time, Li Yuefeng was in a small team with another group of people.

And that other group of people hadn't joined the crew today. Because the schedules of the main cast, including Lu Yan He and Chen Bige, were very tight and couldn't be filmed slowly, the crew would film their parts first and try to put the scenes where the two teams were in the same frame to the back.

The reason Li Yuefeng came today was that his character ended up in their team due to an accident in the plot, and there were quite a few scenes filmed with them.

"The actors in that other team seem to be all actors signed by film and television companies controlled by Jingtai," Li Yuefeng said. "They are really stingy, only finding two actors with greater popularity, and the rest are all unfamiliar."

"That's all they can be stingy about," Lu Yan He said. "With our current lineup, if we find more famous actors, the budget for the salary would have to go through the roof."

Compared to the first season, the salaries of Lu Yan He and Jiang Jun had both skyrocketed.

And for the original cast of the first season, such as Li Yuefeng, Shen Yue, Yan Zhimeng, and Lin Chan, returning for the second season after the success of the first, their salaries were bound to rise.

This is the industry convention and the market's action.

It's obvious that the second season will make money, so everyone definitely won't go soft when asking for a salary.

Plus, don't the crew members get a raise?

In this way, it was impossible to find more famous actors for the other team.

TV dramas are different from movies; there is a ceiling on the selling price of TV dramas.

The ceiling is right there.

Lu Yan He was talking about a very realistic situation.

Li Yuefeng said "Oh," "That's true."

However, not two days later, a salary list that was said to be for the second season of *Seventeen Layers* suddenly spread on the internet:

For a 14-episode TV drama with each episode being one hour long, Chen Bige's salary was 30 million, Lu Yan He's salary was 22 million, Li Yuefeng, Jiang Jun, and Shen Yue's salaries were in the range of 10 million to 15 million, and Yan Zhimeng and Lin Chan were both 3 million.

The cumulative salary of these main actors alone was nearly 100 million.

It sparked heated discussion among everyone.

Lu Yan He didn't know the salary figures of the others, but he knew that this online rumor was a bit higher than his own, because he didn't take a fixed salary; he enjoyed a share of the profits, and his base salary was 10 million.

As soon as he arrived on set, he heard Jiang Jun ask the executive producer with a hearty laugh: "Who do I collect the part of the salary I didn't get from?"

The executive producer looked helpless.

"Isn't this just someone talking nonsense."

Not long after, the *Seventeen Layers* crew issued a statement condemning the untrue salary news circulating online and pointed out directly: Because this show is a high-quality short drama of only 14 episodes, the actor's salary model cannot be calculated like conventional long dramas. Since the specific salary figures are the personal privacy of the actors, it is inconvenient for us to disclose them, but what can be said is that the salary figures each main actor has received are far lower than the so-called revelations on the internet. However, if the second season's broadcast can still be liked and recognized by everyone like the first season and achieve good broadcast results, every one of us creators will receive more returns.

This statement was just short of pointing out the two salary models of profit sharing and bonuses.

But it couldn't be pointed out either.

Like Lu Yan He and Chen Bige, they both used the base + profit sharing model, while Jiang Jun, Li Yuefeng, and the others used the bonus model. Once the broadcast results reached a certain level, they could get a certain level of bonus.

This was also to ensure that the production budget wouldn't be tight because their salaries took up too much of the budget, allowing them to film cruise ship scenes on a large scale and design every level to be more detailed and realistic.

Just at this time, the sixth episode of *Young Days* aired, and the farmer's household that Lu Yan He and the others visited, the family of the international student farmer that netizens had been arguing about for two weeks, finally reached its conclusion—

A child from a rural family, where did he get the money to study abroad?

The answer was revealed: his study abroad funding was sponsored by Lu Yan He.

And Lu Yan He himself didn't even know.

This was too ridiculous.

While mainstream media and most of the audience were shocked and praised Lu Yan He for this behavior.

There were also some viewers who scolded this as a program script.

Li Zhenzhen directly published all her chat records and email correspondence with this international student on the internet, and the international student also organized every record of the entire process from applying for funding to the defense and then receiving the funding, and published it on the internet.

The student said: "It is very normal that Lu Yan He didn't know he sponsored me. I never saw him from beginning to end. In fact, if it weren't for someone who also received funding like me telling me that Lu Yan He provided the funding behind this sponsorship project, I wouldn't have known my sponsor was Lu Yan He. Once I knew, I paid attention to the program *Young Days* and learned more about Lu Yan He's past life experiences."

"When I learned that he was a child who grew up in the countryside like me, knew that he relied on his own efforts to get into Zhenhua University, and knew that he sponsored many students like me to study every year, I became his fan, with some personal feelings, not so pure."

"One day, the director of the program suddenly contacted me because of one of my comments. They wanted to make my home a task point for this season's program. I was very excited and told the director my story. So, as you can see from the chat records, the director contacted me first, and she only found out about this later. If you want to say there is a script, then this script might have to start from a year and a half ago when I started applying for this funding."

This matter caused a huge uproar on the internet.

It is not a rare thing for celebrities to donate money, but it is indeed rare for a specific beneficiary to stand up and express gratitude to the celebrity like this time.

The impact of the person involved speaking out is very different.

In any case, from a mainstream perspective, this is a very positive thing and also a thing very worthy of promotion—hoping more people will learn from Lu Yan He and do such good deeds.

Therefore, many mainstream media outlets still entered the fray, reporting on this matter while also publishing commentary articles to respond to those attacks questioning Lu Yan He for grandstanding.

Lu Yan He made no response.

Li Zhenzhen posted another Weibo, saying: If taking out an eight-figure sum every year to do this is grandstanding, I hope the world has as many grandstanders as possible.

A heavy bomb stunned everyone.

Eight figures?!

Are you kidding me?!

Every year?

Isn't that too exaggerated?

If the previous matter of Lu Yan He sponsoring poor students to study abroad made everyone surprised but still within an acceptable range, the figure mentioned by Li Zhenzhen became a heavy bomb that blew everyone away.

Many listed companies can't achieve such an amount; is he, an artist, that fierce?

How much money can Lu Yan He earn in a year?

As such discussions intensified, it was Huang Kai who set the tone in an interview.

"I'm not surprised or shocked by how much money Yan He earns. Everyone is familiar with him as an actor, but he is also a screenwriter, the founder of *Jump Up*, and the boss of Linghe Films," Huang Kai said. "I want to learn from him. Although I don't have as many identities as he does, and I can't create as many awesome works as he does, which have markets all over the world, he is still using his own strength to help others even when he is so busy. I will also join in this kind of action."

Huang Kai's words reminded everyone.

Stop staring at Lu Yan He's celebrity status and thinking his income is high.

He is no longer just a simple celebrity artist.

"Yan He, how much money can you earn in a year now?"

In the *Seventeen Layers* Season 2 crew, Li Yuefeng couldn't help but ask curiously.

This topic of how much money one earns in a year was too sensitive, but Li Yuefeng seemed not to realize how sensitive it was at all, or he felt that he and Lu Yan He were friends who could discuss such topics. In short, he opened his eyes wide and looked at Lu Yan He very seriously, as if he hadn't considered that Lu Yan He might refuse to say.

Lu Yan He said: "I haven't really calculated it. My income is managed by a financial accountant because there have been big changes in the past few years, and the sources are very complex. I usually look at my financial reports every once in a while; I haven't calculated it by year."

He didn't say it directly.

Li Yuefeng was already full of envy.

"Then that's really reached the level of financial freedom. I envy you."

Lu Yan He said: "You don't earn little now, do you?"

"One-third is taken away by my company, and another third is used to support my own team, do promotion and marketing, and deal with some human relations," Li Yuefeng said. "Actually, I don't earn as much as many people imagine."

The income of a celebrity artist is actually not that easy to calculate. Because everyone's market situation is very different, and because everyone is personalized, the figures are confidential, and in most cases, they can only be estimated.

Like Li Yuefeng, everyone might think he is a traffic star with high popularity and hit dramas, and earning tens of millions a year is definitely no problem.

But in reality, he might not be able to carry a show well, so for better productions, if he wants to compete for the male lead, he must lower his salary to show his sincerity in competing for the show.

Similarly, commercial endorsements are the same, but for any big-name endorsement, he is very likely to be cooperating at a price far lower than his market price.

It's not that he can't earn money; if he takes some ordinary idol dramas or takes some commercial cooperation with fast-moving consumer brands, the money will definitely be earned very quickly and in large amounts, especially live streaming for sales, which can quickly accumulate enough for a house.

But Li Yuefeng still wants to take a more high-end route and doesn't want to lower his posture too much. Many times, he is just stretching to maintain his decency.

Plus, Li Yuefeng and his team belong to the type of artists who attach great importance to marketing and promotion. Every year, the expenditure on this is not less than 10 million, in order to maintain his various data indicators as a traffic star.

It seems that Li Yuefeng and Lu Yan He only differ by a little bit of actual performance, and both are big stars.

But in the eyes of platforms and producers, Lu Yan He can seriously carry a show, his salary only rises and never falls, and endorsements are not at a disadvantage at all. Lu Yan He and Chen Ziyan never do that "you are a big name so you want to give less endorsement fee" thing.

And Lu Yan He's expenditure on promotion and marketing is almost a fraction of Li Yuefeng's.

Plus, Lu Yan He has seen Li Yuefeng's team; there are two assistants alone, plus a nutritionist, photographer, makeup artist, driver, bodyguard, seven or eight people following him every day.

Supporting a team costs several million a year, and the company won't pay this money.

As for Lu Yan He's team, the only ones he supports himself are Zou Dong and Wang Biao.

Once calculated, the gap is large.

Li Yuefeng said: "Actually, when I saw the news that you were sponsoring others, I hesitated for a moment whether I should join in, but to be honest, if I join, I can only take out 100,000 or 200,000 so that I won't feel the pinch—I admit, I'm not as generous as you, but if I really only take out 100,000 or 200,000, once it's known, I will definitely be mocked."

This is like some celebrity artists who, even though their pockets are almost empty, still dress up in full gear when they go out, according to high specifications and high standards, just so others won't look down on them.

For a celebrity artist of Li Yuefeng's level, if it were known that he only took out 100,000 or 200,000 for sponsorship, he might really be mocked and scolded for being stingy.

In this case, it's better not to do this thing.

This is Li Yuefeng's thought.

Lu Yan He was quite surprised that Li Yuefeng would tell him such private, and even not-so-bright thoughts.

But it was also quite real.

It is very easy to ask others to donate money for sponsorship, just by moving your lips, but when you have to take out your own money to donate to others, you know you are reluctant.

Not to mention that 100,000 or 200,000 is a small matter for Li Yuefeng.

For an ordinary person, even if the unit organizes a donation activity, donating 200 or 300 will be a bit reluctant. But in fact, eating a meal outside is also about 200 or 300, and really speaking, it is not a big deal.

The same principle.

This is why Lu Yan He does this himself, but never tells others, and doesn't want others to take over.

He doesn't want to put pressure on others.

Lu Yan He said to Li Yuefeng: "This matter, don't make it your burden at all. If you want to do it, do it; if you don't want to, don't. I never tell others about this; this time it was an accident on the program. Being a little selfish is nothing. There is no reason to say that we should do good deeds. Our bottom line is not to hurt others. Don't let this become your burden. If you do that, we won't be friends anymore; I've put pressure on you."

Li Yuefeng sighed, "I, sometimes I want to do such a thing, but I have concerns about this and that. You know, with our status, once we do it, it's not just about doing it, but also being scrutinized to see if you are grandstanding, and then see if you donated very little. Donating too much is also a problem—you can actually donate so much? Then you must earn a lot. Many times, the current public opinion environment makes me feel that it's better not to do it than to do it wrong."

"I often have this feeling too," Lu Yan He nodded. "So, really, just follow your heart. What to do and what not to do has nothing to do with them. I have been consciously exercising this ability of mine."

Chen Bige came over with coffee.

"What are you talking about?"

Li Yuefeng said with a smile: "He is giving me a life philosophy lesson."

Lu Yan He quickly crossed his hands. "Don't set me up, I didn't, how dare I give you a life philosophy lesson."

Li Yuefeng said seriously: "Really, I have learned a lot from Teacher Lu."

Lu Yan He glanced at him sideways. "Don't talk to me in the future."

Chen Bige smiled.

She took a sip of coffee, and at this time, her assistant came over with a bowl of soup, a very large bowl.

"Chicken soup." Chen Bige explained, seeing Lu Yan He and the other two staring at her bowl of soup.

It contained many medicinal herbs.

"Is it for health?" Lu Yan He asked curiously.

Chen Bige nodded, "No way, I've reached this age, I have to pay attention to maintenance."

Of course, although she said so, Chen Bige didn't look old at all now. In fact, the range of 30 to 40 is also the best time for actresses, not yet showing signs of aging, but their temperament has matured, with a charm that young girls don't have.

Generally speaking, this is also the golden age for actresses to win awards. Because at this time, their acting skills have been practiced, and at the same time, the roles they receive have a certain life experience and richness. At the same time, at this time, they have not been affected by age, causing them to lose competitiveness in the market—this is a fact that must be admitted. When actresses reach the age of 40 and beyond, there are fewer and fewer scripts for them in the market, especially scripts for heroines.

Of course, reaching Chen Bige's professional height, this does not apply to her.

As long as she is willing to act, plenty of film companies are willing to tailor film and television projects for her.

*Seventeen Layers* has a big difference from other TV dramas.

Other TV dramas generally don't have a bunch of leads appearing on set every day because not every scene has everyone's scenes.

But *Seventeen Layers* is different. The scene where this show takes place is in a closed space, and it is in a small team format, so basically, every day's filming requires all actors to be present, unlike other crews that have time to rest or take holidays.

Of course, this also allows these actors to spend a lot of time together. When not filming, they gather to chat.

"I don't know if the second season of *Seventeen Layers* can be more popular than the first." Li Yuefeng has always been the one who speaks his mind.

Many people don't speak as directly as Li Yuefeng because they don't want to look too utilitarian.

Li Yuefeng, however, never seems to mind this point.

"As long as the final quality is not bad, with the foundation of the first season, it should be achievable." Lu Yan He is also outspoken and doesn't mind saying some very certain words at this time. "When I got Teacher Feng Qiyue's script, I felt it was stable. There is no need to worry about whether the style, theme, and our cooperation are liked by the audience, and no need to worry about whether the market will pay for it. The only worry is that the sequel's story is not that good."

Chen Bige also agrees with Lu Yan He's point of view.

"Yes, the new creative idea of two teams racing against time directly upgrades the tension, and the final reversal sublimates the ending of the second season. It's a very good script. Generally speaking, for a trilogy, the middle part is relatively the most plain and uninteresting part because it has to connect the preceding and the following, and the functionality is too strong, so the space for truly telling the story is squeezed. But the script of our second season is good because it is not a transitional script at all; it is itself a very exciting story of confrontation and counterattack."

With the two big leads saying so, Li Yuefeng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hearing you say that, it feels stable."

"Look at Director Lian Bei, he is pondering on the set every day about how to shoot the camera better, because the script is already good enough, and all our crew needs to do is how to use a better way to transform the script into camera language," Lu Yan He said. "Actually, looking at Director Lian Bei's state on the set every day, you know how confident he is."

Lu Yan He is also experiencing for the first time that filming a sequel is actually much easier in an objective sense. This ease doesn't mean their difficulty has decreased, but that they are no longer facing an unknown market. Their style and theme have already been verified by the market. Therefore, they can focus more on how to make the content well, rather than worrying about whether this content can be accepted by the market while making it.

When filming the first season, many people had this concern.

At that time, the battle royale theme was not as popular as it is now.

Now, because *Seventeen Layers* and *Squid Game* have been hits one after another, it has also driven this theme, and major companies have begun to prepare for this type of film and television drama.

However, the few that have been pushed to the market so far are of very low quality, shoddy, and don't look very good at first glance, and the results are also average.

Lu Yan He certainly hopes that the second season of *Seventeen Layers* can go to the next level.

This show is the first show he has served as the male lead in the strict sense.

On the day the seventh episode of *Young Days* aired, the group was very lively.

Of course, the internet was even livelier.

Because, for the first time in history, a program recorded directly to the backstage of an international film festival to record the real situation of artists.

Although it is said that the content at this stage is definitely dominated by Lu Yan He, this is not Lu Yan He's program alone, and Li Zhenzhen and the others cannot make these episodes with Lu Yan He as the main perspective.

At this stage, Li Zhenzhen began to exert her ability as a copywriter and editor, even directly disrupting the timeline to edit, using five keywords to connect the different sides of each artist at the Venice International Film Festival.

Lu Yan He also only knew after watching the program that while he was busy preparing for his own screening, others were not idle.

Li Zhibai was grabbed to shoot two magazines, Yan Liang was received by Maxine's people to meet and chat with a very famous British drama producer, and chatted on the spot about a play the producer was going to do later, discussing the possibility of cooperation.

Liu Zhiyin met several artist friends she had when she was developing in Korea, and then had a street shooting job. Song Linxin and Qin Zhibai went to a very famous local music bar and were invited to the stage, each singing a representative work (this part, Lu Yan He felt should have been arranged in advance).

Su Xiao and Xiao Yun were the only two who had no work on the first day and could go shopping together.

And Peng Zhixing, he actually made an appointment with the chairman of the main competition unit of this Venice International Film Festival, famous actor Ventour River, to do an exclusive interview for *Zhixing*.

In this episode, the relaxed and funny parts were reduced a lot, but everyone presented a side completely different from the past in the program in their respective work.

Including Lu Yan He.

On the internet, what everyone discussed the most was the side of artists at work.

Whether it was Ventour River almost canceling the interview for *Zhixing* due to schedule arrangements, Peng Zhixing taking the initiative to change the interview plan, putting this interview into the car ride between her two jobs, so that the interview could be completed, or Liu Zhiyin during street shooting, because the clothes brought by the stylist had problems, almost unable to complete the brand's requirements, finally relying on Liu Zhiyin and the designer to communicate on the spot, making changes, so that the shooting could be completed...

In this episode, the theme word displayed by Li Zhenzhen is called "Adaptability."

After one episode, the style changed greatly from the past, until the last part, when everyone gathered in the restaurant, the artists who had been glamorous all day returned to the familiar style in the program, and they took off the coats of male gods and goddesses, continuing to bicker and spray each other.

Lu Yan He liked the content presented in this episode very much.

It did not advance according to the timeline, but used such theme words to connect the stories that happened in the whole three days.

But this is exactly the most appropriate way.

Because nine artists, and the schedule is so tight, unlike past programs, they act together or in batches, and everyone's shots are easy to control. If this trip was edited according to the timeline, maybe after one episode was broadcast, the time in their program would not have passed three hours.

In this episode, the information content is extremely large, very suitable for making screenshots and small videos, spreading in the internet world.

Topics went on the hot search one after another.

And this is also the first time Lu Yan He has been noticed on such a large scale in China, his real influence overseas.

Li Yuefeng even asked him: "Are you so popular in Europe? So many people come to pick you up at the airport, I feel like you can compare with those big Hollywood stars."

Lu Yan He smiled and said nothing.

He was not so assured of Li Yuefeng yet, and didn't want to tell him that he had hired extras.

But his smile made others feel that he was acquiescing.

Jiang Jun said: "Yan He has had very concerned and popular works coming out continuously in recent years, almost no window period, it is normal for many people in Europe to like him."

"And he just happened to go to the film festival, so during that time, there were many fans at the airport." Chen Bige also said a word.

Both of them were padding for Lu Yan He's popularity overseas, making everyone believe the truth of this matter.

Li Yuefeng was a little envious and said: "I don't know when I can reach Yan He's height."

He suddenly remembered something and looked at Lu Yan He.

"Remember to find me next time you have a role."

Lu Yan He nodded.

"After *Seventeen Layers* airs, there should be more plays looking for you, right?" Chen Bige asked. "But I don't seem to have seen you have any plays aired this year?"

Li Yuefeng: "Yes, *Exploding Flower Needle*, the box office is quite high, 700 million box office."

Chen Bige reacted, "Oh? Is that film acted by you? I know, but I haven't watched it yet."

Li Yuefeng's face was a little proud and complacent.

"Yeah." After saying that, he thought of something else and sighed, "However, after that, the scripts looking for me were all the same, and I haven't encountered any good scripts again."

The film *Exploding Flower Needle* is indeed quite special, and it is generally considered in the industry as a success of marketing, not a success of the quality of the film itself.

Besides hanging the name of the male lead of a 700 million box office film, Li Yuefeng doesn't seem to have eaten much dividends.

Not only him, but Zhang Lan is the same.

This phenomenon is quite rare in the industry.

Generally speaking, if a film achieves huge success, the lead actor must be the most benefited.

This situation was finally attributed by everyone to the fact that the film itself was not too liked by the audience, and after watching it, it was just watched, and the conversion rate of fan and character filters was not high.

In contrast, the film *Late Spring* only had 500 million, which could not compare with *Exploding Flower Needle*, but the fans brought to Lu Yan He by this film were huge. Among his huge fan base, that part of girlfriend fans almost half came from *Late Spring*, half from *Friends*, and those two supporting roles in *Golden Age* and *Phoenix Terrace* were the white moonlight at the beginning.

Conversely, Li Yuefeng benefited greatly from the show *Seventeen Layers*.

Although he is not the male lead, he bears the boyfriend power function that ordinary male leads bear.

In the second season, he also came without hesitation.

The current Li Yuefeng has no way to get rid of the traffic route, which means he still relies heavily on his fan power, so the importance of *Seventeen Layers* to him is self-evident.

Chen Bige suddenly remembered something and said to Li Yuefeng: "Then you have to act in a role for me."

"Ah?" Li Yuefeng was stunned.

"Not many shots, just a cameo," Chen Bige said. "But it's a good film. You come to cameo a few shots, you won't lose out, it's also a script written by Yan He."

Li Yuefeng looked at Lu Yan He, didn't ask any more questions, and said directly: "Sure, I'll come."

He agreed first, then continued to ask: "What play is it?"

Chen Bige said: "A period play, a film, the name is *Raise the Red Lantern*, Yan He gave me two scripts at the time, we filmed *Rouge* first, this is the other one."

Lu Yan He smiled.

Is *Raise the Red Lantern* finally going to be launched?

Lu Yan He probably guessed what role Chen Bige wanted to find Li Yuefeng to play.

That young master.

That passerby in Songlian's life.

Lu Yan He asked Chen Bige: "Sister Bige, has the director of this film been found?"

Chen Bige said: "I contacted Director Wang Zhong, wanting to invite him to cooperate again, but he hasn't told me whether he is willing to film it."

Lu Yan He thought, if Wang Zhong is not willing to film it, to find a director suitable for filming such a theme in China, he can only look for the older generation.

Young directors basically dare not touch period plays.

Because they are too far from that era.

Hope Director Wang Zhong agrees.

Lu Yan He suddenly realized one thing—

Chen Ziyan has always been worried that the plays Lu Yan He acts in are biased towards commercial themes, and in the next three to five years, these plays will be far away from the film festival system.

But he still has screenwriter works.

Just like the film *Raise the Red Lantern*, it is destined to take the path of film festivals.

Lu Yan He can completely write a few more scripts that are not suitable for him to act in, cooperate with other directors, and invite them to film.

Just thinking about it, Li Yuefeng suddenly turned his head and looked at him, without saying a word.

Lu Yan He was very surprised, looking at him without knowing why, "What's wrong?"

Li Yuefeng asked: "When can you tailor a film script for me? I also want to win Best Actor."

Lu Yan He heard Li Yuefeng's words, didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and didn't know what to say for a long time.

"It's not that you can win Best Actor just by acting in a script I wrote," he said. "I've written so many scripts, and only Brother Huang won Best Actor."

Li Yuefeng: "There will be a second time after the first."

He looked at Lu Yan He very seriously and said: "Yan He, write a script for me too."

Lu Yan He: "I will try."

Li Yuefeng nodded, "Then I'll wait for your script."

Lu Yan He: "It's not that fast, and, I'm serious, don't hold too high expectations, the script I write is not necessarily successful."

He was really afraid that Li Yuefeng would hold too high expectations, and then the expectations would fall through.

"Li Yuefeng is the only one who is so active and proactive in asking you for a script, right?"

Chen Ziyan smiled.

Lu Yan He nodded.

"That's true."

Others have also asked Lu Yan He for scripts, but not like Li Yuefeng, who mentioned it again and again.

Of course, there are some people who are chasing after him, but those are not acquaintances around Lu Yan He, often some people met in work occasions before.

Later, Lu Yan He blocked a few, because it was really too exaggerated.

Chen Ziyan: "Li Yuefeng's acting skills are still too ordinary. Have you watched *Exploding Flower Needle*? His performance in it, you can't say it's bad, but it can be counted as a passing score at most. The 700 million box office didn't push him up. Look at Lang Xia, a 100 million box office *Flowers on the Stars* was blown into a box office top dog, mainly because it really attracted a group of fans, recognizing that he is handsome in this film."

Lu Yan He heard this and was also a little helpless.

"But Li Yuefeng can be so popular, there must be his attractive charm."

"He relies on topics, on heat," Chen Ziyan said. "Not to mention anything else, the people in his team really have some skills. I want to dig two people over. The ability is top-notch. If you pick one person out, it is the degree that I am willing to spend a lot of money to hire."

Lu Yan He didn't expect Chen Ziyan to rate Li Yuefeng's team so highly.

"Li Yuefeng's popularity is really seven parts relying on the team, three parts relying on himself. You have acted with him, you know it yourself. Whether as an artist or an actor, he doesn't have any particularly attractive points."

Lu Yan He actually agreed with Chen Ziyan's statement inside.

It's just that because the relationship with Li Yuefeng is better now, Lu Yan He is not willing to speak ill of people behind their backs.

Chen Ziyan remembered something and said: "By the way, I came to see you today, there is one more thing to tell you."

"What is it?"

"Didn't I tell you before that Director Gongjiang has been secretly preparing his new project? I want you to participate in it, but I heard a piece of news recently."

When Chen Ziyan said this news, she turned back and looked at Lu Yan He.

Lu Yan He only felt strange, why didn't Chen Ziyan finish it all at once.

"What news?"

Chen Ziyan said: "Director Gongjiang's film, he is also contacting Chen Pinhe."

Lu Yan He instantly understood Chen Ziyan's pause and hesitation.

The surroundings were quiet, all white noise.

Lu Yan He slowed down for two seconds and said "Oh."

"If Chen Pinhe really joins this film, can you still act?"

Chen Ziyan didn't ask if Lu Yan He wanted to act, but if he could.

Lu Yan He was silent for a moment, raised his head, his expression was faint, and said: "What's impossible about it."

He was very calm.

Or rather, he made himself look very calm.

Chen Ziyan waited for a while, confirmed that Lu Yan He had nothing else to say, and didn't change his mind, then she said: "Then I will continue to make an appointment with Director Gongjiang. They agreed before, you and Director Gongjiang meet and chat."

Lu Yan He nodded.

"Quite good," Lu Yan He suddenly said, "I don't know if he will continue to be a tortoise this time."

The bait thrown out before all sank into the sea at Chen Pinhe's place, but instead forced Chen Pinhe's current wife to move.

I don't know if Chen Pinhe acts face-to-face with himself, can he still act.

Thinking of this, Lu Yan He suddenly became excited, suddenly gave birth to a sense of being determined to win.

This film, he must take it down. ===== CHAPTER 531 =====
