Chapter 1130: Chapter 1128: Try Contacting the Author
But Mu Yeli had no choice but to look outside for a bit and then walk away.
Ye Ning suddenly remembered something, "Oh right, you say."
"What?"
"I now know where Lin Siqing’s biological parents are. If I tell the Lin Family now, could it be... something Lin Siqing doesn’t like?"
Mu Yeli said, "That’s their family’s business. You still have to respect Lin Siqing’s own wishes. You can ask him what he wants."
Ye Ning said, "Previously, Lin Siqing didn’t want to acknowledge his biological parents, but now, for Lin Yuying, I don’t know if he would be willing."
"Then you can ask."
Ye Ning nodded, "Maybe there will be a chance. Yuying will probably stay here for a while. I’ll go accompany her first."
"..."
For a while, that long?
Mu Yeli thought, he suddenly wanted to help Lin Siqing find his biological parents.
...
The next day, Ye Ning and Lin Yuying set off together from there to the company.
Zhang Zhiyou was still waiting at the company, and Ye Ning gave him the novel she was reading to look at,
Zhang Zhiyou looked at it and said, "It’s a campus story, you’re sure you want to take this risk?"
Ye Ning said, "Yes, I want to try it. I haven’t filmed something like this before."
Zhang Zhiyou looked at her, worried that after performing in "Black and White," people would want to see her in that type of drama, and suddenly stepping into a campus story might not resonate with them.
Ye Ning said, "I also don’t want people to always think of me as Ah K, so I want to take on something different. This girl’s character is more cute and silly, which is completely different from before."
"Alright, your idea is certainly good... but it’s really risky. Next time you could try a disguise, but as for this script... I looked at it, and the author doesn’t seem very famous. Do you want to use such an unknown work? I think a big IP might have a better chance of securing the audience. Shouldn’t you consider it?"
"A big IP attracts a lot of attention, a lot of people already know it, and they easily identify with the characters the author writes about. A more niche one might actually be easier for people to accept," Ye Ning said.
Zhang Zhiyou could only say, "Then I’ll see if I can get someone to contact the author."
"No need to get someone, I’m in the author’s reader group."
"..."
Is this how being a celebrity works now, joining an author’s reader group for leisure?
She really is something...
Zhang Zhiyou didn’t know what to say.
"Alright then, once you make contact, we will reach out."
Ye Ning quickly pulled up the group to find the author.
The author was always appearing online but never showed up in the group.
Even though it’s niche, there were still a few hundred people chatting in the group.
Ye Ning hadn’t said anything since joining.
At this moment, she clicked on the author’s chat and said, "Hello, esteemed author, I’m interested in the rights to your novel. I hope to add you as a friend to discuss potential adaptations."
After a long time with no response, just when she was feeling puzzled, she suddenly saw the author reply...
"Scammer, may your whole family die. Go cheat someone else, I’m not falling for it."
"..."
Ye Ning was dumbfounded, what kind of response was this...
And when she tried to speak to the author again, she found the author wasn’t responding to her at all.
She could only continue, "I’m really not a scammer, I’m genuinely interested in your rights. Our company is quite reliable, we previously did ’Black and White’. I don’t know if you’ve seen it..."
