Wang Zhen had never seen such a famous director or screenwriter up close before. Moreover, she had been singled out by Jiang An. She immediately bowed excitedly. “Director Gu, Screenwriter Cao, hello!”
Gu Sheng was not surprised. “Hello.”
Screenwriter Cao looked gentle and wore a pair of black-framed glasses. She was more introverted and only smiled at Wang Zhen as a greeting.
Next, Jiang An began to get to the point. She took out a notebook from her bag and handed it to the two of them. “1 sorted this out.”
Gu Sheng took the notebook and began to read it with Screenwriter Cao. Jiang An wrote in detail, covering more than ten pages.
The basic needs of the characters were described externally, internally, in life, and in action, focusing on the reasons for the formation of Gan Lan’s personality and several typical childhood experiences.
Screenwriter Cao nodded repeatedly after reading it. She smiled and looked at Jiang An. “Your understanding of Gan Lan is very comprehensive! 1 can tell that you’ve spent a lot of effort in analyzing this character.”
Even the screenwriter who created the character acknowledged the biography she had written. Jiang An was still very happy. “I especially like the character of Gan Lan. I’ve already read the script three times.”
The screenwriter naturally liked the protagonist she created. This kind of recognition could be considered a two-way street. Screenwriter Cao smiled and adjusted her glasses before starting to talk about her original intention for creating this character.
The more the two of them chatted, the more they got along. However, they ignored Gu Sheng and chatted until noon.
During the audition, Jiang An had already given Gu Sheng a pleasant surprise. Now, Jiang An’s understanding of the characters and her attitude towards this drama had given Gu Sheng another pleasant surprise.
This was the first time the two sides had gotten used to each other. After chatting, Jiang An had a better understanding of Gan Lan.
“Legend of Gan Lan” was a female lead drama. The male lead did not have many scenes in the early stages, so the male lead only joined the production team half a month later. Jiang An’s early scenes were mainly set in the big house, portraying Gan Lan’s growing up scenes.
After Jiang An returned to the hotel after the first day of filming, she continued to think about the gift. “It has to be something related to astronomy.”
In the living room of the apartment, the two little guys were sitting on the carpet playing with toys. Jiang An held her head and tilted it, looking at the siblings in a daze.
Jiang Yu pointed at the little flash cards and said loudly, “Ball.”
Jiang Yi glanced at it and corrected, “It’s a star.”
Jiang Yu took a closer look and realized that there was a round ball on the card. She looked at Jiang Yi and said firmly, “It’s a ball!”
Jiang Yi sighed softly and continued to correct her. “It’s a star. This is Mercury.”
Jiang Yu was even more confused when she heard that it was both a star and Mercury. She frowned slightly and stuck her two small hands at her waist. She puffed out her small chest and emphasized again indignantly, “It’s a ball! It’s round!”
Jiang Yi still had a good temper. He said calmly, “It only looks like a ball. A watermelon is also round. Is the watermelon a ball? Can a ball be eaten?”
Jiang Yu was stumped. To her, this question was a little advanced.
Jiang Yi had seen the picture book before Jiang Yu. Jiang An had already told him about the object in the picture, and he had memorized it after hearing it once, unlike Jiang Yu’s brain, which was confused after reading it a few times.
Jiang Yu looked at her brother’s calm expression and her black eyes darted around. She grabbed the card and first knelt on all fours. Then, she stood up with her butt sticking out and walked towards Jiang An. “Mommy, Mommy! What is this?”
Jiang An came back to her senses at her daughter’s shout. She picked up the photo and looked at it. She smiled and replied gently, “This is a star. It has a name. It’s called Mercury.”
When Jiang Yu heard that Jiang An’s answer was the same as her brother’s, a trace of frustration appeared on her small face. However, she quickly thought of something and turned back to the carpet to pick up a few other cards. She threw them at Jiang An. “Mom! These are balls, right?”
Jiang An took the pictures and realized that they were all stars from the eight planets of the solar system. Hence, she explained according to the words written on the pictures one by one, “These are all stars. They are the eight planets of our solar system. The picture in my hand is of Mercury. It’s the smallest, but its speed is the fastest.”
“This is Mars. Its color is similar to the color of flames. At the same time, it has the largest volcano in the solar system.. That volcano is more than ten thousand meters tall…”
