Qiao Weiyang walked over suspiciously and knocked on the door.
When she pushed open the door, she saw Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing opened her arms. "Suprise!"
"Qing Qing, why are you here?" Qiao Weiyang smiled and returned the favor.
"My teacher was invited to revise the scripts for the actors this ti. I ca with my teacher," Xiao Qing said with a smile. "Are you happy to see ?"
"Of course, I'm happy!"
Xiao Qing's teacher was called Liu Xianyun. She was already 70 years old and was a very powerful screenwriter.
The four scenes chosen for the finals this ti were all very famous works of hers back then.
However, with the passage of ti and the need for stage performances, it was definitely impossible to imitate the originals. They still had to undergo so adaptations.
The production team was indeed very sincere in inviting Liu Xianyun over this ti.
"Let's go, then. Let's go out to work. Mrs. Liu didn't co over today. I'll gather so opinions for her and et the actors. Then, we'll decide on how to modify the scripts according to the characteristics of the actors.
"Let's go."
Qiao Weiyang brought Xiao Qing to the rehearsal venue and said to Xinyue, "Xinyue, co and et my friend! This is Xiao Qing, my best friend. She'll be helping to modify the scripts this ti."
"Hello, Ms. Xiao!" Xin Yue imdiately bowed and greeted.
"No, no, no. You should only address a senior like my teacher formally. Don't call that."
"Hello, Sister Qing Qing." Xin Yue imdiately changed the way she addressed her.
Only then did Xiao Qing smile. "Does everyone here call each other Miss and Mister?"
"It's not wrong to call soone you're not familiar with Miss and Mister. It's convenient and polite," Qiao Weiyang explained.
Xiao Qing smiled and shook her head.
Qiao Weiyang saw that she was in a good ntal state after coming back this ti. She did not know if Shen Mubei had gone to look for her, but no matter what, it was a good thing that her spirits had recovered.
"Alright, let's get to work first," Qiao Weiyang said.
Xiao Qing walked over and t the other actors.
Zhang Xi did not expect a screenwriter who knew Qiao Weiyang to co. This was a little surprising.
She didn't say anything and just watched as Xiao Qing confird the actors' situation and discussed with everyone which works of Liu Xianyun they wanted to choose.
Everyone expressed their opinions and tried their best to choose so familiar scenes.
Xiao Qing morized everyone's opinions and wrote down a detailed explanation.
"Ms. Zhang, do you have any objections?" Xiao Qing asked.
Zhang Xi said indifferently, "I don't have any for the ti being. You guys can decide. Just don't make fall too far behind."
"No problem. Then let's choose a few more scenes as backup."
"Sure." Zhang Xi nodded.
It was a little unexpected that Xiao Qing's first day of work went so smoothly.
During the al, she sat with Qiao Weiyang. "These actors are quite easy to get along with."
"So of them are easy to get along with, but so aren't."
"Really? Then maybe they've all been eliminated?" Xiao Qing asked with a smile.
Qiao Weiyang shook her head. "You'll understand in two days."
Xiao Qing knew that Qiao Weiyang rarely evaluated people behind their backs like this, so she imdiately beca more careful.
The next day, Xiao Qing ca over with the selected scenes to confirm the final four scenes with everyone.
Tian Ke and Xin Yue were easy to talk to. They only raised so operational questions about the selection of scenes and roles. They were polite when they had questions.
Li Qizhi was not a big problem either.
Xiao Qing asked Zhang Xi, "Ms. Zhang, what do you think?"
"So, you only ca to ask once you've decided on everything, huh?"
Xiao Qing was stunned. Everyone was sitting together. As soon as she finished speaking, everyone was actively discussing. She was the only one who did not say anything. Now, she actually said that?
"Ms. Zhang, that's not what I ant. We're all discussing it together," Xiao Qing said. "Just say whatever you have in mind."
"Why don't I see Mrs. Liu here?" Zhang Xi asked.
"Mrs. Liu is getting on in years. It's not convenient for her to do many things herself. I'm here on her behalf to do so basic work. In the end, we'll have to wait for her to make the final decision and modify the scripts."
"I see. But since you can't make the decision, let's wait for Mrs. Liu to co."
Xiao Qing: "…"
She said patiently, "Mrs. Liu will only co later. I'll do the rest of the work. It'll be too late when she cos to finalize your scenes."
"In that case, I have a screenwriter in my team. Let her communicate with you. I'm just an actress. I don't know much about your professional knowledge." Zhang Xi arranged for a screenwriter to co over.
Xiao Qing finally understood Qiao Weiyang's concern.
What kind of work attitude was this? An actor did not know anything about scripts?
No wonder she hadn't beco famous after acting for ten years.
"Alright, I'll communicate with your screenwriter," Xiao Qing said.
This screenwriter was Zhang Xi's personal screenwriter. She had been by Zhang Xi's side for a long ti. She had to take a look at all the works Zhang Xi acted in.
"Ms. Xiao, my na is Yu Li. I'll communicate with you from now on."
"Okay, Ms. Yu." Xiao Qing nodded.
Qiao Weiyang was preparing the fabrics. The clothes she made this ti had to match everyone's roles.
However, the characters' exact personalities had yet to be determined, so she could only make early preparations.
Xiao Qing took a can of Coke and gulped it down. "Weiyang, tell , how do you usually get along with Zhang Xi?"
"I just let her be and watch her." Qiao Weiyang smiled at her. "Did she cause you trouble?"
"It's more than that! Her screenwriter wants to choose a role that suits her. She wants every scene to highlight her beauty. She wants to stand out in every scene. There shouldn't be anything in the script that'll make her uncomfortable. The scenes shouldn't be too easy for her to perform in, she shouldn't play a bad persona, there can't be long sentences or awkward speech, but she can't have too many short sentences either. The script has to be elegant enough. I…"
Xiao Qing took two more gulps of Coke before suppressing her indignation.
"With all her demands, all the other characters have no choice but to cooperate with her! They'll all beco her foils! How can a script that's only a few minutes long withstand her endless requests?!"
"Calm down." Qiao Weiyang handed her another bottle of water.
"How exactly do you tolerate her?!"
Qiao Weiyang couldn't help but laugh. Xiao Qing hadn't t enough people in her life.
With a few more encounters, her immunity would naturally beco much higher.
However, Xiao Qing was not soone who would complain endlessly. After complaining, she dutifully went to look for Yu Li to review the scripts.
