Xiao Bao was the first to rush into her arms. “Mommy!”
Qiao Weiyang picked him up.
Jingyun arrived a step after him.
“Mommy!” Xiao Bao buried his head in her neck.
Qiao Weiyang also picked Jingyun up.
The two little guys were filled with joy just now. Now that they were being carried by Qiao Weiyang, they felt a little sad. They lay on her shoulder and did not know what to say.
How could Qiao Weiyang not feel the same?
It was the same feeling she had when she found out that she had given birth to the two children that night. They must be in the same state of mind now.
Su Zhuoqian patted Xiao Bao’s b.u.t.t. “Mommy can’t carry you anymore.”
Only then did Xiao Bao come down. Jingyun also came down from her arms.
The two brothers had already drawn strength from the hug just now. Their faces were full of smiles as they reached out to hold Qiao Weiyang’s hands again. “Mommy!”
Although they used to call her that, calling her ‘Mommy’ now seemed to change a lot of things.
As Qiao Weiyang smiled, flowers and petals rained down from upstairs.
Colorful balloons rose into the air.
The flowers and balloons were illuminated by the light, making them even more dazzling.
Qiao Weiyang was the most dazzling light in the center of all the colors.
After the complicated matters pa.s.sed, Qiao Weiyang’s work went on as usual.
This time, the production team she joined was called A Tale of the Tang Dynasty. It was a large-scale period drama.
In the director’s office…
Director w.a.n.g Mingyue sat at her desk and said to Qiao Weiyang with a smile, “Not bad. I really like this script. Weiyang, if you’re willing to give me the script to direct, the two of us will definitely hand over a satisfactory project.”
“Director w.a.n.g, you have a very unique grasp of the Tang Dynasty and women’s themes. I’m very happy to give you my script.”
“This time, we’ll be working on your script, and you’ll also be playing the female lead, so we’ll be able to get good investments. There’s no problem with the investment. We just have to do our job well.” w.a.n.g Mingyue was very confident in this production.
As for Qiao Weiyang’s ident.i.ty as the screenwriter, it would probably be gradually revealed during this filming.
“Alright, let’s start the table-read first,” w.a.n.g Mingyue said.
This time, the script was solid, the investment was strong, the female lead was Qiao Weiyang, and the male lead’s ident.i.ty could not be underestimated.
In addition, all the supporting actors were reputable figures. Although they were not necessarily famous, they were all figures who were deserving of being called actors. Even if the audience could not recall their names, they would find their faces very familiar.
This was the confidence that resulted from having good investments.
Qiao Weiyang followed w.a.n.g Mingyue toward the event location.
She quickly saw all the familiar faces.
w.a.n.g Mingyue introduced them to Qiao Weiyang.
Everyone greeted each other and sat down amiably.
Director w.a.n.g’s a.s.sistant walked over and said in a low voice, “Director w.a.n.g, everyone is here except Zhang Youming.”
“What happened to him?” w.a.n.g Mingyue asked.
“Zhang Youming is still in the previous production team. He’ll only finish filming the day after tomorrow,” the a.s.sistant said softly. “His manager specially called to ask for leave.”
“Alright, then let him be.” w.a.n.g Mingyue had no objections.
Zhang Youming was currently a popular veteran actor. Before he turned 40, he was unknown. Last year, he suddenly appeared on an acting variety show and attracted countless fans. He was known as the buried gold of the entertainment industry and the lost soul of acting.
In the year he turned 40, he became the leader of the group of middle-aged actors. This was his second year of being famous.
Although he had never acted as the male lead, after he became famous, he quickly became a top supporting actor. He partic.i.p.ated in almost all the big movies and TV shows last year and this year, and his audience response was very good.
He would be playing the male lead’s father in A Tale of the Tang Dynasty. His scenes were not particularly heavy, but because the male lead and his father had always been an important clue in the script, he played a very important role.
It was precisely because of this that w.a.n.g Mingyue chose Zhang Youming to play this character.
After everyone sat down, w.a.n.g Mingyue briefly introduced the script. Then, she smiled and said, “In the next four months, Weiyang will discuss the script with everyone. If you have any problems with the script and lines, you can talk to Weiyang.”
Everyone was slightly surprised. They all knew from inside information that this script was Man Tianxing’s latest work. What did it have to do with Qiao Weiyang?
Could it be that the inside information they received was wrong? Was this script not written by Man Tianxing?
Faced with everyone’s doubts, Qiao Weiyang said generously, “I was involved in the script’s creation, so you can communicate with me if you have any questions.”
Everyone instantly understood that she was involved in the creation of the script.
Actually, this was not strange at all. Many artistes in the entertainment industry would no longer be satisfied with being an artist. Some would turn to directing while others would turn to scriptwriting.
However, in everyone’s opinion, those who turned to scriptwriting were basically capable actors. In the eyes of many people, ability was not related to looks.
Now that Qiao Weiyang was suddenly a.s.sociated with scriptwriting, with her looks, she really could not convince the public.
This was also an inherent prejudice of the public.
w.a.n.g Mingyue smiled and said, “Weiyang is Man Tianxing. Don’t be too surprised.”
As a director, w.a.n.g Mingyue was very strict, but she usually liked to joke. No one believed what she said and felt that she was flattering Qiao Weiyang.
It wasn’t that her words weren’t credible, but Qiao Weiyang… She had red lips, white teeth, and was as beautiful as a flower. No one could a.s.sociate her with a creative genius.
“Weiyang is really talented.”
“That’s right. She’s talented and good-looking. I’m envious.”
The compliments came one after another, but none of them were sincere. They were just superficial compliments.
In front of Qiao Weiyang’s good looks, they were willing to give in.
They were convinced that Qiao Weiyang’s acting skills were outstanding.
However, when it came to her being able to write scripts, everyone was just joking and being perfunctory.
They guessed that Qiao Weiyang was just trying to flatter herself. After all, to wealthy families, the reputation of a female artiste wasn’t as good as that of a female scriptwriter. Now that Qiao Weiyang wanted to enter the Su family, her actions were understandable.
Seeing that they didn’t believe her, Qiao Weiyang knew that it was useless to say anything more now.
Only when the shooting started and everyone communicated could she truly convince the public.
“Then let me briefly explain my creative concept and my understanding of each character…” Qiao Weiyang said confidently.
