Chapter 301 There will be a chance later
"There will definitely be this opportunity, don't worry, Teacher Zhang."
After Jiang Mubai personally sent Zhang Yi home, he went back to pack up and prepare to join the crew. Wu You also officially went out for a paid trip. She originally wanted to wait until Zhang Yi joined the crew before leaving, but was stopped by Bai.
Jiang Mubai missed the film's opening ceremony. When she arrived at the set, it was already afternoon and they were already debugging the equipment in preparation for filming.
So Jiang Mubai returned to the hotel, put his things down and immediately went to the set to watch them filming. All the staff involved in the film had joined the crew today, including all the actors who were filming.
Jiang Mubai didn't see Wen Nuohan at the scene, but she saw Qian Shuyun. Qian Shuyun felt embarrassed when he met her gaze and immediately dodged.
Jiang Mubai guessed that she might have rejected him so he was embarrassed to face her, so he didn't go up to talk to Qian Shuyun.
Jiang Mubai found a quiet corner to sit down and rest. At this time, Qian Shuyun walked towards Jiang Mubai with a script.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Jiang. I didn't have time that day so I declined your invitation. I hope you don't mind."
"It's okay. I've already guessed your situation. I know you might be busy and don't have time, so I didn't take it to heart. I'm touched that you've come to tell me this. I'm glad to know that you don't really hate me. Let's just clear up the misunderstanding."
Qian Shuyun suddenly became excited when he heard Jiang Mubai say that. "Teacher Jiang is so outstanding, how could I hate you? Fortunately, I came to you today to explain, otherwise I really don't know how to face you, Teacher Jiang."
"Don't be so polite! We'll see each other every day on the set in the future. Did you come here just to explain this to me?"
Qian Shuyun saw that Jiang Mubai cleverly changed the subject, and she was also sensible enough not to continue dwelling on the previous matter.
"No, in addition to explaining the reason to you, I just happen to have a question for you, Mr. Jiang. It's about your description of the character in the original book. What lines do you think are more suitable? I thought about it for a long time but couldn't think of words that can reflect the characteristics of the character."
When Jiang Mubai heard this, he took the script from her hand and started to read it, then discussed it seriously with Qian Shuyun. After Jiang Mubai's revision, Qian Shuyun found that it was indeed much better than before, and he was sincerely grateful for Jiang Mubai's guidance.
"Thank you so much, Teacher Jiang. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do with this script."
"You're welcome. Feel free to contact me whenever you need me. I don't have anything serious to do on the set anyway."
When Qian Shuyun heard Jiang Mubai say this, he immediately asked her to go with him.
"Teacher Jiang is sitting here alone anyway, why don't you come over to my place? We can discuss the script together. Actually, there's one thing I haven't told you. I'm also a fan of your book, Teacher Jiang. I even went out of my way to get your book."
Jiang Mubai really didn't know about this. "Really? I wouldn't have known if you hadn't told me."
"Really? I'm not lying to you. I brought the book with me in my bag and will give it to you later. I just wanted to ask Teacher Jiang to sign it for me. I don't know if it's convenient for you."
"Of course it's convenient. It's my honor to sign for you."
Jiang Mubai followed Qian Shuyun to her seat and saw her take out her book from her bag.
"I have read this book so many times that the pages are wrinkled. Teacher Jiang, please don't blame me for not cherishing your work."
Jiang Mubai took it and found that it was exactly the same as Qian Shuyun said. She also wrote her own opinions in the blank space.
Qian Shuyun felt embarrassed when he saw Jiang Mubai reading his thoughts, "I just wrote this randomly. I am so embarrassed that Teacher Jiang corrected me so quickly."
Jiang Mubai signed her name on the title page and wrote a blessing for her, "I read your thoughts, it's quite interesting. You are a very thoughtful person."
Qian Shuyun was very happy to receive Jiang Mubai's praise, "No way, I am still ashamed of myself compared to Teacher Jiang."
"Don't be modest. The fact that the movie chose you to be the screenwriter shows that they recognize your ability. I also think that your script adaptation is very good. You have retained many details in my book. People without a certain level of skill will not notice these."
"I'm very happy to hear that from Teacher Jiang. We should communicate more in the future. It's my honor to have a common language with you."
"it is good."
Jiang Mubai was talking to Qian Shuyun about the script and the novel when Zhao Long came with a series of actors to introduce them to Jiang Mubai.
Wen Nuohan was also among them. The director introduced them to Jiang Mubai one by one according to the amount of scenes they had. Wen Nuohan was a supporting role so he was introduced in the middle.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang. I'm very happy to play the role in your novel. Can I come to you for help if I have any problems with the character in the future?"
"Hello, of course you can. You can come to me if you have any questions. I will stay on the set until the film is finished before I leave."
Zhao Long was naturally happy to see Jiang Mubai say that. "Most of the actors used in our movie are newcomers, so don't come to Teacher Jiang if you have problems with the characters. You can also come to Teacher Jiang if you can't control the emotions in your acting. Teacher Jiang is a movie queen and you must have seen the movie she starred in. If you come to her for guidance, she will definitely not refuse you, right, Teacher Jiang?"
During the audition, Jiang Mubai noticed who were the actors participating in the movie. Now seeing what Zhao Long said, she would certainly not refuse. They were all new actors and their acting skills still needed to be polished. Since Jiang Mubai came here, she also hoped that the movie could be made well.
"Well, you can come to me if you have any questions."
Wen Nuohan was quite curious about Jiang Mubai's identity. She didn't expect that Jiang Mubai had become a movie queen and a writer at such a young age. As a girl herself, she particularly admired Jiang Mubai's abilities.
After Zhao Long saw that they all knew each other, he asked them to go back and prepare for the filming. "Teacher Jiang, why don't you come over and see how they are filming? I heard that you have studied with Director Zhang before. I would like to invite you to come and take a look as well."
Jiang Mubai said something to Qian Shuyun and followed Zhao Long to the monitor. They were now filming the first scene and the assistant director was talking to the actors. Once the actors understood the scene and adjusted their emotions, they could start filming.
There was no one shown on the monitor yet. Jiang Mubai looked inside and felt that the lighting was not right, so he called the stagehand to talk to the lighting technician about the lighting problem.
After Jiang Mubai's adjustments, the images on the monitor suddenly became much more pleasing to the eye.
Zhao Long was amazed when he saw this. "Teacher Jiang is really amazing. I heard that you are interested in working behind the scenes? With such talent, our jobs as directors are in jeopardy."
Jiang Mubai was curious about how he heard about his intention to change careers. "I found out from the news online. Netizens said that you are not filming but creating at home. They all think that you have reached the peak of your career and might change track and try other work."
"So that's it."
Seeing Jiang Mubai's look of sudden enlightenment, Zhao Long also realized that something was wrong.
