Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words, Chen Yun and Lu Li were stunned for a moment before reacting.

“Director? Why did you suddenly think of this again?”

I didn’t realize that Xia Wanyuan was interested in this in the past.

Xia Wanyuan flipped through the script. “Is there a problem?”

When she first came to the modern world, in order to understand more about this era, Xia Wanyuan had learned through watching television dramas.

Unfortunately, those television dramas were a little shocking in Xia Wanyuan’s eyes. She could not find a better-looking one.

Anyway, she was pregnant and was no longer suitable for high-intensity filming for a long time. It was not bad to transfer to the backstage as a director.

“Okay, Sister Xia. If you’re the director, the drama you film will definitely be especially good.” Lu Li, the expert drama follower, was already looking forward to it.

In her eyes, Xia Wanyuan could do the best in everything, including television dramas.

Chen Yun had no objections and this matter was decided.

“Then I’ll screen the script for you? What direction do you want??”

Xia Wanyuan thought for a while. “The last time I browsed Weibo, I saw a television drama being scolded very badly by book fans. I’ve seen that story outline before. Not bad. Help me find out what the original name of that book is.”

“Okay, no problem.”

Chen Yun immediately went to investigate.

To people who had been in the entertainment industry on Weibo all year round, Chen Yun knew how to search for keywords too well.

Once he typed in the words “adapted to look like sh*t”, a large number of Weibo posts related to these words quickly appeared.

Chen Yun took a look. Basically, most of the netizens were scolding the television drama adapted from a mythical novel, “Under the Sky”.

The worldview of the original novel was quite grand. With revenge as the main storyline, it connected the plotlines of the gods, demons, and demons. It described how three young people who grew up in different environments and worldviews grew up step by step, turned into enemies, and finally became one.

The story was actually not complicated. The reason why this television drama was boycotted by many netizens was because of its special effects.

A television drama was different from a movie.

A movie was only two hours long, so the production team could invest a lot of money in special effects and produce stunning effects.

However, a television drama with dozens of episodes could not.

Hence, few Chinese television dramas had good special effects. They were usually called noob special effects.

There were many television dramas overseas that became popular worldwide because they were willing to invest and produce exquisitely.

Jiang Yun shook her head. “I’m taking care of my...”

Jiang Yun paused for a moment before saying, “Take care of my husband. He’s recuperating in this hospital.”

“Oh.” Xia Yu’s expression was dark. It was unknown what he was thinking. His gaze swept across Jiang Yun’s clearly smaller face. “You seem to have lost weight. Take care.”

Jiang Yun’s eyes turned sour. She bit her lower lip and tried her best to remain calm. “Thank you. My husband is still waiting for me. I’ll go up first.”

“Okay.”

With that, Jiang Yun walked away quickly. Xia Yu looked at her departing figure with an obscure gaze.

When he returned to the ward, Lin Yi had already woken up. She was leaning against the head of the bed in a daze, thinking about something.

Seeing Xia Yu enter, a smile appeared on Lin Yi’s pale face. “It’s been hard on you.”

“Why are you so polite?” Xia Yu walked over and wiped Lin Yi’s hands with a towel. “If you hadn’t saved me, I wouldn’t even know where to lie now.”

The corners of Lin Yi’s lips curled up slightly. “In that situation, if it were anyone else, they would have saved you without hesitation.”

Xia Yu wiped Lin Yi’s hands. “Let’s not talk about those things anymore. Rest well and get well early.”

“Okay.” Lin Yi nodded.

——

Not long after Xia Wanyuan left the hospital, she received a call from Chen Yun.

“Wanyuan, that author is overjoyed. He’s still connected to the phone, so he drove to our studio to sign the contract with us. I’ll send you the electronic contract later.”

“No problem. You can just check it.”

“Okay, then we’ll settle this.”

After hanging up, Chen Yun immediately posted the news on Weibo happily.

A few days ago, “Under the Sky”, which had been filmed very badly, had just ended. Now, the dark trending topic about how bad this television drama was was still on Weibo’s trending topic.

When one clicked on it, it was basically filled with insults from book fans and complaints from passers-by.

Just as everyone was lamenting that “China’s television industry is finished”, Wan Shi Studio suddenly posted a post.

@ Wan Shi Studio: “I’m very happy to work with ‘Under the Sky’. Let’s look forward to @ Xia Wanyuan’s first work as a director.”

Seeing the words “Under the Sky”, everyone was about to scold them out of habit when they saw the name Xia Wanyuan.

[ Why don’t I understand what this Weibo post means?? Is Xia Wanyuan going to film “Under the Sky” again?? Why didn’t Xia Wanyuan act anymore and went to be a director? ]

[ Xia Wanyuan’s acting skills are quite good, but directors and actors are completely different directions. Is Xia Wanyuan sure that she can control the huge plotline of this television drama? My white moonlight novel has already been regretted once. I don’t want to see it destroyed a second time. Please let him off. ]

[ Am I the only one who’s looking forward to it? Ignoring everything else, if Xia Wanyuan is the director, the budget for this drama is simply invincible. Can I look forward to the special effects of this television drama? ]

Although there were some doubts, most people still supported it. After all, the special effects of the previous concert were there, so everyone naturally had a balance in their hearts.

However, when the news spread, the foreign netizens did not think so. It was because the special effects of Chinese television dramas in the past were too famous.
