In the entertainment industry, the silly system claims it's the immortal realm.

Chapter 13: Normal Social Interactions in the Entertainment Industry

Wei Yi was a director in his previous life.

Although it was only some short dramas and web series that were filmed.

But he's also a director.

He personally experienced many things that happened on set.

Many past anecdotes and legends.

Not a single one was missed.

Let me put it this way.

Even a nobody like him.

Many obscure actresses are willing to go to his room to listen to him talk about acting.

Not to mention those big directors, big stars, and big names.

If they're willing.

The actresses who go to their rooms to talk to them about the play could stretch from Hengdian to Beijing.

A slightly more "formal" couple on set.

That would be even more common.

After all, filming takes several months.

Whether you have a boyfriend, husband, girlfriend, or wife, the vast majority of them can't stay with you forever.

They are both normal men and women.

Who can endure not eating meat for several months?

This is perfectly normal.

In his previous life, Wei Yi had even heard that some couples were both actors.

When joining a film crew, the woman would even prepare a small umbrella for the man, and the man would remember to take his birth control pills on time.

There is an actress who played the role of the third son's wife.

When she joined the crew, even her husband would remind her to use contraception.

I'll do anything.

Just don't let anyone get killed.

Of course, it wasn't that her husband was generous.

The main reason is that the whole family depends on this person for support.

I won’t name the specific person.

In short, this is about Senior Sister Chen and Wei Yi.

Both he and the other party were well aware that this was a very normal thing in the industry.

It is a type of social interaction.

At first, Senior Sister Chen saw that Wei Yi was young and had the idea of ​​monopolizing the young and handsome man.

She wanted to put on a little act to manipulate him.

We'll see later.

Good guy.

This person is young.

But his skill is truly profound.

Chen Zihan then felt relieved.

I'm not performing anymore.

It's good to make friends with someone with great potential.

The key is that he is young and handsome.

Tmd is a particularly good "friend".

Chen Zihan felt that she had also gotten lucky.

As for Wei Yi...

He was genuinely grateful to Senior Sister Chen.

Through Senior Sister Chen, he was able to unlock new system rewards!

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully completed your first dual cultivation with a female cultivator. The system rewards you with the cultivation technique: The Yellow Emperor's Heart Sutra.]

The next instant, a complex and strange array of postures and techniques appeared.

It was instilled into Wei Yi's mind in a way that was unreasonable.

He froze for two seconds, his mind filled with images he had never imagined before.

Holy crap... you can do that?

The Zhuangzi, in its "Biographies of Immortals," states: "The Emperor rode three thousand men and ascended to heaven in broad daylight."

These eight characters appeared on the system panel, gleaming in gold.

It's like some kind of supreme spiritual maxim.

Wei Yi remained silent for a moment, then silently recited "system" in his mind.

"Isn't that just bullshit?"

His tone was tinged with deep exasperation, "Even if it's one a day, three thousand would still take more than eight years. Don't my kidneys need rest?"

Cultivation is never easy.

The silly system responded confidently: "[Host, with a little effort, two a day, you'll become an immortal in four years. Four a day, you'll ascend to heaven in two years. Eight a day, you'll become a celestial being in one year. If you can get sixteen a day, you'll be a god in half a year.]"

"Marry your mother..."

Wei Yi couldn't hold back any longer.

"Whether I can become an immortal or not, I don't know, but I definitely need to become a dried-up human first."

The sand sculpture system did not respond further.

It's as if they've implicitly accepted the premise that "the path to immortality is inherently fraught with thorns."

Wei Yi sighed and put the panel away.

Forget it.

What kind of logic can you get from a silly system that treats navigating the entertainment industry like cultivating immortality?

The next day.

As always, there was no response from Zhang Yimou's side.

Strictly speaking...

Actually, there is no production team for "Curse of the Golden Flower" yet.

The plot of this movie.

It is actually an adaptation of Cao Yu's play "Thunderstorm".

The film is currently being filed with the relevant authorities and is titled "Autumn Memories".

Later, when filming was almost finished, Zhang Yi felt that the name was not imposing at all.

I also came up with the names "Double Ninth Festival" and "Chrysanthemum Killing".

But later, Zhang Yimou felt that neither of the two names could capture the grandeur of the film.

He wanted the name to have the same imposing feel as "The Lord of the Rings".

Finally, he made up his mind and used Huang Chao's poem "Ode to Chrysanthemums After Failing the Imperial Examination".

Absolutely domineering.

So naturally, there's no "Curse of the Golden Flower" crew here right now.

Because its name is still "Autumn Memories"...

It is said that Zhang Weiping came up with this name.

Wei Yi felt that he really had absolutely no artistic talent.

It even has a damn strong Japanese vibe.

Since they don't need me here for the time being.

And then there was Li Hua, a senior fellow student, who helped to tip them off.

Wei Yi was happy to become an intern in Zhang Li's "The Embroidered Uniform Guard" production team.

Old Zhang truly deserves to be called a fifth-generation director.

He simply mentioned it to the producer, and Wei Yi, a complete newcomer, became the assistant director of "The Embroidered Uniform Guard".

The benefits and compensation are all standard.

This touched Wei Yi deeply.

He thought to himself, "If I really get noticed by these old monsters from these sects..."

The treatment and benefits were so good that even he himself would be envious just thinking about it.

It's safe to say that Wei Yi is the one who most wants Beijing Film Academy to remain awesome forever.

Without it.

The position of your buttocks determines the direction of your head.

Everyone hates second-generation rich kids.

But that just means not everyone can be a second-generation rich kid.

Wei Yi officially joined the crew of "The Embroidered Uniform Guard" as an assistant director doing odd jobs.

With Zhang Li protecting him, he followed Director Zhang around every day to learn.

It would be a waste of high-level shots to casually use them in a TV series, especially when it comes to filming high-tension shots.

In my spare time, I write my own scripts.

Since his rebirth, he has registered a large number of screenplays with the National Copyright Administration.

With Chen Zihan by my side, I could relax at night and refresh myself with the so-called "spiritual energy" from the silly system. I was living a very happy life.

More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

National Day is here.

However, the crew of "The Embroidered Uniform Guard" did not have a holiday during the National Day holiday.

For the production team, every extra day of filming adds tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of yuan to the cost.

Unless there's an unexpected accident, they'll just have to film it to death.

After studying with Zhang Li for a month, Director Zhang actually believed that Wei Yi was capable of directing some simple shots.

October 2nd.

Zhang Li even delegated authority directly, laughing as he put the hat on Wei Yi's head and shoved the director's tube into his hand.

"Give it a try?"

"Can... I do it?"

"Why not? You've read the storyboard and the script. You even participated in the revisions."

Zhang Li laughed and joked with Wei Yi, "Besides, this character's surname is Wei, and you happen to have the same surname."

Wei Yi was speechless: "Wei Zhongxian was a eunuch and had no descendants. I have nothing to do with him."

"Ha ha!"

"So verbose~"

Zhang Li laughed loudly, and several staff members around him joined in the laughter. He then asked Wei Yi, "So, are you going to film or not?"

"Take a picture! Take a picture! Of course I'll take a picture," Wei Yi chuckled.

nonsense.

Finally, I can pick up the director's tube again.

Moreover, it was a directing role in a serious TV series, something I had never experienced before.

Even if it's just some relatively simple shots.

Wei Yi wouldn't let him go either.
