Chapter 49 It is very important to set the position in order not to overturn the person
Chapter 49 To avoid overturning, personal positioning is very important
"Okay, that's it for today. get out of class is over, students..."
In the drama classroom, Long Xuetong turned off his computer and stood on the podium watching the students file away.
He didn't move himself. On the one hand, he wanted to avoid the crowded crowd after class, and on the other hand, he also checked to see if any classmates didn't understand the class and came to ask.
Normally, in the last class in the morning like this, everyone is waiting for lunch and rushes to the cafeteria after class. Very few students come to ask.
However, my sophomore year in the Department of Acting and Performance was in a special situation. There was a sensitive and studious Wei Yang who could count on both hands the number of times he did not ask the teacher after class every semester.
For a professor at the level of Long Xuetong, it is almost impossible to return to it, so much so that he has developed a habit.
Every time I give a class to the sophomore performance department, I first check to see if Wei Yang is there. As long as he is there, I will wait for Wei Yang to ask questions after class.
But this time he miscalculated. Wei Yang and Li Jiahang teamed up, said hello to him, and prepared to leave the classroom.
"Wait a moment."
"A friend of mine has put on a play in the past two days. There is a role that hasn't been decided yet. I'm going to recommend you to give it a try."
"Yes, it's my fault. I should act well later and don't lose my people."
Afternoon, Magic City Bookstore in the city
"You're young, how can you learn so many crooked ways? If I asked someone for help, I wouldn't have to look for you. I'll see that you study seriously and I'll introduce you to a job."
"Let's go to summer vacation. It won't delay your studies."
And Wei Yang happens to have the ability in this area. Scripts + novels, the former attracts popularity and the latter has good reputation, which can definitely establish Wei Yang's unique core competitiveness.
…
"Teacher, please tell me."
"It just so happens that I have something to ask you about. Since you are busy, I will keep the story short."
There are many handsome actors, and many are good at acting. Even though Wei Yang has outstanding looks, it is difficult for him to easily stand out among them.
"Undocumented Crime" was launched after the Spring Festival. Taking advantage of the first batch of readers in the Tianya community and the popularity of Wei Yang's "The Best of Us", the first printing of 5,000 copies was easily eaten by the market.
If Wei Yang is more shameless, he can be called a best-selling new writer...
"Don't worry, teacher. A good performance means that you and the teachers have taught me well. A bad performance is purely due to my limited talent and has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of our theater teaching."
The debut novel is expected to sell over 30,000 yuan, which is already a very remarkable achievement.
A mere 30,000 copies may sound like a shabby figure, but the current physical book market is so bleak.
The publishing house struck while the iron was hot and organized several book signings for Wei Yang. After discussing with his agent, Wei Yang happily came.
"The teacher is very happy to have you as a student."
At that time, Wei Yang was the talented actor with the most literary/screenwriting ability among actors. Not only was he handsome, but he also had a connotative temperament, which made him more popular among fans and the outside world.
At the same time, he is also the most handsome and popular male god among writers and screenwriters, letting his colleagues see the cruelty of being crushed by good looks.
Any celebrity artist who wants to develop rapidly must have a clear positioning.
He settled the accounts with Long Xuetong on his fingers: "Only two dramas have been confirmed, and I have to focus on one scripted drama. Really, I am really too busy."
After such a long time, Wei Yang became familiar with Long Xuetong, and they would joke a few words from time to time. Long Xuetong also loved teasing Boring with him.
Long Xuetong stopped Wei Yang and asked curiously: "What happened today?"
Tian Ji races horses and takes both sides. It can be said that Qin Shihuang eats peppercorns - he wins!
Lei Chun carefully studied several characteristics currently displayed by Wei Yang and felt that he is very suitable for the [Literary/Cultural Streaming Artist].
Long Xuetong looked at Li Jiahang for a few times and couldn't help but shake his head: "You can't do it. My character is a noble son, and I want a handsome young man who is rich and handsome. You can't meet the requirements."
Long Xuetong suddenly regretted why he had stopped Wei Yang just now, and even doubted how he had thought about it before, and even thought of setting a string for Wei Yang.
Other students have difficulty running groups, but they are very happy to have a drama to perform.
In the entire publishing industry, there are only a few million-selling books throughout the year. They are basically top-selling authors and phenomenal works. These are not entirely about the books themselves, but are mixed with various aspects of marketing and operations.
Li Jiahang: "..."
Only then did Wei Yang relax. Performance students liked the teacher, and it was common for the teacher to make a recommendation casually when he encountered a suitable opportunity.
"When is the rehearsal approximately?"
Long Xuetong was chosen as the director of the acting department, and he was not ignorant of the world. He quickly realized what he was doing and couldn't help but smile.
It would be fine just to recommend characters, but if Wei Yang is asked to help, there is a high probability that his joining will bring a certain amount of popularity and exposure to the drama. For Long Xuetong's sake, Wei Yang has to consider it as appropriate.
Wei Yang brought Li Jiahang to meet with his agent Lei Chun and the publisher. He was going to hold a book signing for "Undocumented Crime" here today.
At least it is a positioning for a certain period, so that the team can package and arrange work for the artists based on this positioning.
Wei Yang sighed helplessly: "Teacher, I want to go too, but the schedule is too tight."
The publishing house has printed an additional 25,000 copies. Currently, more than half of the copies have been distributed. The feedback is pretty good. There may be another wave of printings before the end of the year.
"..."
Wei Yang told the truth, Long Xuetong felt comfortable now, he thought the lesson was not taught well.
"you?"
But this kid Wei Yang is obviously different. He can write and act in his freshman year, and become a new star in the circle in his sophomore year. Such a student does not need his care and support.
Wei Yang made a series of big moves after the Spring Festival. Not only did he further cooperate with Blue Whale, he even had a close relationship with the Tang Dynasty. His manager Lei Chun, who originally planned to do a part-time job as a transition, slowly began to take a liking to Wei Yang.
.
Before this time, the two had an in-depth chat, mainly to find Wei Yang's position.
Wei Yang hesitated for a moment: "Teacher, I take the liberty to ask, do you want me to help or do you really want to act in a play?"
But if you add screenwriting + novel writing, not many actors can compare with Wei Yang. This is Wei Yang's unique advantage.
It seems that he has been very successful at Long Xuetong during this period. Old Long even took the initiative to introduce him to dramas, but...
"There is an event in the afternoon, I have to rush there."
If you refuse, just refuse. There is no need to explain it so thoroughly. Be careful, I will sue you for personal assault at the Education Bureau.
Now is the era when cultural idols are prevalent. Han Han and Guo Xiaosi are both in the limelight. They have countless fans from experts, scholars, and public figures, and they make a lot of money.
The two were chatting away, and Li Jiahang on the side couldn't hold it back: "Teacher Long, Wei Yang doesn't have time, but I do. My schedule is very empty."
And a very important point is that most of the time, people will have a relatively high tolerance for someone because they are talented.
As a talented person, it's normal to be free and uninhibited. It doesn't matter whether your private life is messy or chaotic. It doesn't matter if you are important, as long as you can produce good works.
This is also something Wei Yang values more.
Some people are trying to call you a shameless scumbag, while others are trying to call you a romantic celebrity who doesn't want to touch your body. If you want to avoid falling into the trap, your personality positioning is very important...
