Chapter 298 Another novel adaptation
After hearing Wu You's words, Jiang Mubai was also very satisfied with Cheng Yunchuan's performance.
"I hope this matter can be handled properly. It would be bad if it affects his work."
"Don't worry, Sister Mu Bai. Teacher Cheng's team is so powerful that they will definitely be able to solve it. When I checked online just now, I saw that many people had deleted the photos."
Jiang Mubai was not very clear about how Cheng Yunchuan finally resolved the matter. Anyway, Wen Nuohan's company has not done anything wrong since then. Jiang Mubai guessed that they gave up when they saw that Cheng Yunchuan was not cooperating.
After all, Wen Nuohan is still a newcomer in the entertainment industry, so they have to protect the reputation of their own artists, right?
During the days when Wen Nuohan did not appear in public, she was learning acting with the teachers invited by the company. Although she did not appear seriously, the company would log in to her social account from time to time to post her daily updates, so fans knew what Wen Nuohan was doing.
Wen Nuohan and her friends did not personally come forward to clarify the matter of the photos. When her agency saw Cheng Yunchuan’s statement that they were just friends, they took it as tacit approval of the relationship.
Fans saw that anyone who could be friends with Cheng Yunchuan must be good, so instead of stopping being his fans, they gained even more fans.
Some of Wen Nuohan's fans secretly started to support Cheng Yunchuan and Wen Nuohan. The agency thought that this had achieved their goal. They didn't care about the relationship between Cheng Yunchuan and Wen Nuohan, as long as they could get in touch with Actor Cheng, it would be beneficial to them in any way.
Jiang Mubai has been reading scripts at home recently. She was not satisfied with the scripts, but someone approached her to buy the copyright of her novel, saying that they wanted to make a movie.
The last time Li Jingming adapted a movie, he just chose a story from her novel to film. Jiang Mubai didn't expect that the second thing to be adapted would come so soon.
Now she finally understood why no good scripts were handed to her. It turned out that everyone just adapted the writer's novel directly. Wouldn't this save the screenwriter a lot of trouble?
Jiang Mubai would not refuse anything that could make money, and it just so happened that she also had the idea of moving behind the scenes. She learned a lot of things from Zhang Yi last time, but she has not put them into practice yet. Taking advantage of the fact that there is another novel adaptation, she plans to give it a try without Zhang Yi's guidance.
After making up his mind, Jiang Mubai called Manman.
"No problem on my end. Invite them out tomorrow and we can talk about it. If they're good, you can sell them the copyright of the novel."
Manman was very efficient and gave Jiang Mubai a reply in the evening.
"The other party will come to our studio tomorrow to meet. They said they want to talk to you in person. Do you want me to pick you up from your home and bring you to the studio tomorrow?"
"No, I can drive there myself when the time comes."
The next day, Jiang Mubai went to the studio without dressing up. Wu You advised her to put on some makeup to look more energetic, but Jiang Mubai refused.
"I'm not going to audition for a movie, so there's no need to dress up so nicely. I won't be back at noon, so you can eat at home alone."
"it is good."
After Jiang Mubai left, Wu You looked at her back with a worried look on his face.
"Sister Mu Bai has such good qualifications and acting skills, why doesn't anyone ask her to act in a movie? She has been at home for such a long time, she is not going to switch to working behind the scenes, that would be a waste of her qualifications."
Wu You was full of emotion, but she was very tactful and didn't say these words in front of Jiang Mubai. Although Jiang Mubai didn't seem to be abnormal at ordinary times, she knew that she was also worried about this matter.
Because she knew that Jiang Mubai really liked the profession of actor, and she once said in front of him that being an actor and filming was a very enjoyable thing, so Wu You thought that Jiang Mubai did not really want to go behind the scenes but was forced by the situation and had no choice.
"So many people have approached Sister Mu Bai to get the copyright to adapt their novels, but why hasn't anyone asked her to make a movie based on their own novel? Wouldn't it be quite appealing to netizens if the author films his or her own work?"
As an outsider, she felt troubled watching these things. Wu You couldn't imagine how troubled Jiang Mubai, the protagonist, must be.
Jiang Mubai used to have such wild thoughts as Wu You did, but after being comforted by Cheng Yunchuan, she relaxed completely. She felt that there was no need to create so much anxiety for herself and it was better to be more casual.
In the conference room of Jiang Mubai's studio, there were three people meeting her this time. After Manman introduced them, Jiang Mubai knew their names and identities.
Zhao Long couldn't help but compliment Jiang Mubai when he saw her. "Teacher Jiang is so casual in private. I think she looks just as good without makeup as she does with makeup on. It's true that celebrities are all born beautiful and not everyone can be one."
Zhou Siyuan nodded in agreement after hearing what Zhao Long said. "Before I came here, I thought that celebrities like Teacher Jiang were difficult to get along with. I didn't expect Teacher Jiang to be so approachable. I really didn't expect that."
Among the three people, the one who was complimenting others seemed very quiet. Jiang Mubai happened to be curious about that person. Just now, she heard Manman's introduction and knew that this person was a screenwriter and his name was Qian Shuyun.
With the contrast of the previous two people, Jiang Mubai had a rare favorable impression of Qian Shuyun. In addition, since they were of similar age, Jiang Mubai felt even closer to her.
Jiang Mubai felt impatient when he heard the two people's flattery. Manman had been with her for so long that they had already formed a tacit understanding, so it was not convenient for Jiang Mubai to interrupt them on such matters. She was happy to do it for him.
"You two, everyone can see how outstanding Mu Bai is. Let's not waste time on this. Let's talk about serious matters."
Jiang Mubai observed that when Manman talked about serious matters, Qian Shuyun became serious and solemn. This change made Jiang Mubai feel that this person was different from the other two people, and he could communicate more with her.
Manman knew what they meant by complimenting Jiang Mubai. Wasn't it because they were afraid that if they didn't give them the copyright of the novel, they wouldn't be able to make a movie? So when she interrupted, she didn't hurt everyone's harmony.
After talking for two hours, they finally finished the matter. Jiang Mubai still had to participate in the entire process of the filming as she did last time. She also promised the three of them that she would never interfere too much in the filming of the film. She only said that she was interested in the behind-the-scenes and wanted to have more contact with it.
Seeing that she agreed to sell the copyright, Zhao Long naturally agreed, "We understand. We have all heard about Teacher Jiang becoming Director Zhang's apprentice. It is our honor to have you guide us on the set. Unfortunately, we are not capable enough to invite Director Zhang to take charge of the filming, but it is the same if you are his apprentice."
"I can't really say I'm a mentor. I just simply like these things. I feel relieved to hear your words, Director Zhao. We'll find a time to sign the contract another day. Please let me know if there are any arrangements on the crew's side, so that I can know and get involved."
"Of course, we have added our contact information. I will inform Teacher Jiang if there is anything. Shuyun, when you finish the script, remember to send a copy to Teacher Jiang."
