Chapter 510: Chapter 280: It’s Me, What About It? (Gentle and Agreeable Version)_4
“However, usually to save time, your script will be reviewed in the afternoon. If the gap is too big, there would be no need to study your script.”
“We’ll print it out at noon and see if we can review it in the afternoon.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyan nodded.
“Alright then.”
Back in the conference room, as Gan Wenchang had said, a group of people had already stopped their previous activities and began to express their opinions on Zhao Mingyuan’s script from the beginning.
Some people read fast, like Xu Qingyan. In one hour, he had read through the entire script, and he pretty much knew what was written in every scene.
Some read slowly, covering less than half. They probably needed to give it some appreciation, as finishing it is easy, but giving praise should still be substantial.
The always-smiling Director Fang Chu, with his typical composure, looked around at everyone. Once everyone had put down their work, he spoke.
“Let’s hear everyone’s thoughts. Two heads are better than one, right?”
A certain expert coughed and was the first to give an opinion.
“Comrade Zhao’s script is quite good, and the thought-process is clear. In my opinion…”
“Yes, for example, the use of ‘the silent scream’ is very effective.” Another leader adjusted his glasses and added a few words, mostly praise.
The more Gan Wenchang listened, the more hopeless he felt, occasionally glancing at Xu Qingyan. However, he saw no other expression on his face, as placid as a popsicle, just quietly listening.
At the table, only Xu Qingyan, He Guojin, Ji Shi’an, Lu Liangsheng, and Gan Wenchang had not expressed any opinions, simply stating they hadn’t finished reading.
Nevertheless, the widespread praise still gave Zhao Mingyuan immense confidence.
The meeting ended in the morning, and as Xu Qingyan left the room with an indifferent face, Zhao Mingyuan couldn’t help but let a slight smile creep onto his lips, thinking to himself that he had this in the bag and looking forward to the afternoon show.
Noon.
After lunch, Gan Wenchang hurriedly helped Xu Qingyan at the office printer to mass print and bind copies. He was so anxious, wondering how to face those people in the afternoon.
The printer buzzed and whirred, and when he turned his head, it seemed he saw Xu Qingyan next to him yawning.
“Did you just yawn?”
“No, you saw it wrong.” Xu Qingyan waved his hand, denying it with a lackadaisical air.
“Damn it, I’m here worried for you, and you’re getting sleepy?” Gan Wenchang couldn’t help but laugh in frustration, cursing under his breath while his hands kept deftly organizing the papers.
“Seriously, are you confident or not?”
“I should be, but it’s hard to guarantee these things.” Xu Qingyan replied while also arranging the binding, without even looking up, “Why don’t you just read it later? Then you’ll know.”
Upon hearing this, Gan Wenchang hesitated to reply.
About twenty minutes later, after the scripts were bound, Gan Wenchang randomly took one copy, saw the title “My Battalion Commander, My Regiment”, and sighed again.@@novelbin@@
He looked up to see Xu Qingyan, who seemed to have drifted off underneath the air conditioner.
“Damn it!” Gan Wenchang cursed quietly, resentfully flipping open a page, “Let’s see what you’ve written… Zenra town, oh, what’s so interesting about defeated soldiers…”
He had thought he would only be engrossed for five or six minutes, just as he was with Zhao Mingyuan’s script at noon. He simply couldn’t get into it and gave up after ten minutes.
It was already a hot afternoon, but as he kept reading… Gan Wenchang miraculously found himself engrossed in the story!
He kept reading about Meng Fan, who only wanted to heal his wounded leg and leave the battlefield, the weary soldiers without souls, and when the expeditionary orders came, some retreated and some advanced.
The utterance of “I will go, I will lead the troops from Myanmar back to Shanghai” by Ah Yi.
Suddenly, Gan Wenchang realized this script might actually be… quite interesting.
