Chapter 221 What kind of male lead is he? He's turned into a supporting male character!
Lu Wangqian wasn't unwilling to do it; his first reaction was to capture An Yueyuan and use any means necessary, including violence, to force her to admit that she was spreading rumors.
However, An Yueyuan is currently under the protection of the Ye family...
Yes, she is nominally a bodyguard, but in reality, she is the one being protected.
Ye Sanqing wasn't too afraid. She was just a young lady from the Ye family, who might just be used for a marriage alliance. Even if the Ye family seemed to value her highly now, wasn't that just a way to inflate her value?
Lu Wangqian prided himself on being very familiar with the secrets of these wealthy families, so even though Ye Sanqing beat him up, he didn't think of the other party as a real threat.
But the thought of Ye Yifan possibly causing him trouble gave Lu Wangqian a headache.
That's the person in charge of the Ye family!
The consequences of actually going to war with the Ye family are something he cannot bear.
The PR team advised him to handle the matter quietly and quickly find new resources for Ye Wanyin. They suggested that Ye Wanyin should go into seclusion to film a movie and then come out to work in six or ten months, by which time netizens would have forgotten about it.
Lu Wangqian had to admit that this was the best method at the moment.
Lu Wangqian kept his word. Although he didn't understand it, he had the money to hire a professional team.
So he took a bunch of scripts to Ye Wanyin.
Despite being embroiled in lawsuits, Ye Wanyin still managed to secure roles in scripts.
Of course, it won't be a masterpiece by a famous director. Most people just want to make a quick buck by capitalizing on her popularity. Once her issues are truly resolved and the content is taken down, they'll have already made their money.
Of course, there were also some people who were willing to spend money and lose money just to please Lu Wangqian.
In addition to Ye Wanyin's issues, everyone also has a legal team to conduct an assessment.
Sending her to jail is definitely out of the question, because there's simply no concrete evidence. At most, she'll have to pay compensation and apologize for her misconduct.
Then she grows into that pitiful, innocent-looking girl, and even if she cries and whines a few more times, there will always be people who will buy it.
The fact that someone like Ye Wanyin can continue to exist is cruel to everyone else, but that's just how the market is.
As long as it makes money, who cares if she's a human or a ghost?
Ye Wanyin was well aware of this, so she wasn't really worried.
She simply can't stand people talking badly about her.
The script has been delivered to me, and even if I know there are many swindlers in it, I still have to be alert and take a good look at it.
After poring over countless clichéd and overused tropes, including but not limited to the timid female lead chasing after her husband's wife and the supporting female character in a male-centric drama, Ye Wanyin finally had a bright idea.
What she was holding in her hand was a fantasy romance novel script.
Ye Wanyin was interested in the female lead.
The female lead is a character who has experienced many heartbreaks but still cares for all people. She is somewhat detached yet compassionate, and in the end, she sacrifices herself, becoming the male lead's eternal white moonlight and eternal regret.
Ye Wanyin believes that the character's image will help clear her public image, and that the character is both ethereal and innocent, practically herself! So she can just play herself!
She carefully read through the script, confirming that there were no obvious plot holes, and then looked at Lu Wangqian.
Lu Wangqian stood by, doing nothing. If he wasn't doing nothing, he could only rage in a state of impotence.
He caught her gaze, stood up, took the script from Ye Wanyin's hand, glanced at it twice, and said disdainfully, "Who wrote this? Never heard of it, no famous author!"
"You know I'm not famous, yet you still forced me in..." Ye Wanyin silently complained in her heart, but actually this was a good thing.
If Lu Wangqian particularly values the reputation of directors and screenwriters, then she would have far fewer scripts available to her right now.
I guess it's some talented new screenwriter... Filming a fantasy drama requires a lot of investment, and this plot doesn't quite fit the current fast-paced style, so in desperation, they turned to Lu Wangqian's side.
“Brother Lu, I really like this character…” Ye Wanyin said, pointing to the female lead’s character design.
Lu Wangqian looked at it carefully, and instead of being pleased, he became angry. "What? The main storyline is the love story between the male and female leads? Wanwan, how am I supposed to explain this?"
Ye Wanyin almost couldn't help but sneer.
What time is it now? Do you still have the nerve to nitpick about whether there's a male lead or not?
She knew Lu Wangqian didn't truly love her! If he did, he would never have interfered in her career.
If it's Cheng Yanye... well, he's not much better off, and there's no need to mention abandoning a pawn.
Could it be that she doesn't want to act in a female-centric drama without a romantic storyline? Such dramas are very rare nowadays, and audiences are very discerning, so it's very likely that her efforts will be in vain.
Even if there were such dramas, Ye Wanyin thought it would be difficult for her to get a role, unless she was specifically labeled as having a weak and delicate image.
Besides, for a small production crew that's short on funds, once Lu Wangqian invests, wouldn't they be in charge?
"Brother Lu, I don't want to be protected by you all the time. I want to have my own career too! This role is so perfect for me, how can I give it up because of such a small problem?"
Ye Wanyin puffed out her cheeks, playing the role of a stubborn, indignant little white flower.
“…” Lu Wangqian stared at her for a while, then smiled.
"Since Wanwan thinks it's a minor problem, then it is a minor problem."
Lu Wangqian thought that as long as the investment was made, wouldn't the script be able to be changed at will?
What male lead? Let him become a supporting male character!
What's with the romantic storyline? Turn it into a family storyline!
He didn't want to go online and see people shipping Ye Wanyin with some random guy.
Previously, Ye Wanyin claimed to have fallen for Sheng Hanyu, but even Lu Wangqian knew that it was just a temporary measure, and Wanwan only said that out of desperation!
Besides, he had met the man surnamed Sheng before, and he wasn't even as tall as him. What qualifications did he have for Wanwan to like him?
Haha, he's only good with a barbaric woman like Ye Sanqing!
Lu Wangqian thought about the potential domestic violence issues Sheng Hanyu might encounter in the future, and inexplicably chuckled.
Ye Wanyin: ?
"I'll have my agent arrange the signing. Just wait for my notification."
Lu Wangqian leaned over and hugged Ye Wanyin.
"I have a business dinner tonight, so you have to eat properly at home every night. I'm going to check my weight when I get back."
As he spoke, he pretended to pick Ye Wanyin up by putting his hands on her waist.
"Hate!"
Ye Wanyin gave a coquettish laugh, then nodded obediently. Her expression only turned cold after Lu Wangqian closed the door.
I'm increasingly reluctant to deal with this man.
They're always touching and groping me all the time, it's so greasy!
Is it really that impressive to be able to wrap your arms around her waist?
Any man could surround them, okay?
Sigh, but the investment for a fantasy drama starts at 100 million yuan. Considering that 100 million yuan, Ye Wanyin felt that she could endure it for a while.
Once she becomes famous, who will need to curry favor with Lu Wangqian?
Hehe... Only a woman like Ye Sanqing, who can't think straight, would go and make some lousy martial arts films.
Then you'll just have to wait and lose everything!
Ye Wanyin grew angrier the more she thought about it. It was clear that the Ye family had invested in the martial arts drama starring Ye Sanqing, but they had ignored her completely.
No, we can't just let this go.
Ye Wanyin thought for a moment, then opened Ye Tian's chat window.
Even if you can't start a fire, fanning yourself is still a great way to cool things down.
