Chapter 249: Tan Mo Unmasked

Chapter 249: Tan Mo Unmasked

What he did know was that all this was knowledge accumulated from studying at university. It had obviously not come from a professional source.

“Legend of Wei and Jin” had achieved immediate success with its debut. Even though Director Liu had told Song Mingqi that he didn’t have any plans for a new series yet, he actually had decided to take the chance to shoot another historical drama, riding on the coattails of this huge success.

Director Liu had even been thinking about contacting Beijing University, asking them to allow him to audit some classes in order for him to learn more history.

At the start of this year, in fact, there were quite a few actors and directors entering schools to improve their knowledge.

And now Director Liu was considering it.

“Of course, we would welcome you,” Teacher Yuan responded immediately.

The students from Tsinghua University all looked at Director Liu with many mixed emotions.

This is the director who shot “Legend of Wei and Jin”!

Who would’ve known that they were going to get the chance to meet him in person and interact with him?

“Director Liu, would you be able to participate and get involved in this exchange program? We actually have many questions we’d like to ask and discuss with you,” Qu Yuangi asked passionately. “We never thought that this chance would come along. Now that the chance has come, we must make good use of it.”

Director Liu waved his hands and laughed. “You don’t want to talk to me about it. I don’t actually know that much about it. Most of the story and the details all came from the scriptwriter and consultant. All I did was direct. I can direct and put things into action from paper. But if you’re talking about history itself, I wouldn’t dare to pretend to be knowledgeable.

“Actually, there was another version of ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’ before this current version everyone is watching. There were huge problems with that version, but I didn’t realize that until Tan Mo pointed them out. If she hadn’t managed to rewrite the script on time, we would have suffered an enormous loss,” Director Liu said.

Director Liu was saying that the script had actually been written by Tan Mo.

Of course, everyone was completely surprised and way too taken aback to analyze his words carefully.

Those from Beijing University were shocked.

Those from Tsinghua University were feeling much, much worse about this situation now.

Did Director Liu just say that it was Tan Mo who had discovered problems with the script?

That was the only part of the sentence they had truly paid attention to.

“Tan Mo?” Luo Xiangwei was shocked. “She’s read the script of ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’?

“Of course.” Director Liu nodded. “She wrote it.”

Director Liu’s expression made it blatantly clear that he didn’t understand why Luo Xiangwei had asked such a question.

“Tan Mo was the consultant on ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’ and she had direct participation in its production too.” Director Liu carefully laid this bombshell on them.

He looked at the students from Tsinghua University questioningly. “Didn’t you all know this?”

They were speechless.

They were dumbfounded and bewildered by the news.

Their minds went blank, and none of them knew how to react to this.

Yang Guangyuan was the first to get his senses back.

He thought about when they had been back in the professor’s office and how Professor Zhao and Director Liu had reacted, and he suddenly came to a realization.

No wonder Director Liu had wanted to come over and see Tan Mo.

Tan Mo was the reason for his success!

No wonder Professor Zhao didn’t answer his question about the consultant.

It seemed like these two were kind of ganging up on them.

They’d come over just to make fun of them.

And looking back, no one from Beijing University was surprised at all.

They had known this entire time, and had just pretended not to.

Yang Guangyuan looked at Song Mingqi, who was nearest to him.

Song Mingqi shrugged again. “I don’t know why you’re looking at me.”

He was innocent.

“You all knew this entire time!” Yang Guangyuan clenched his teeth. “And you all purposely kept this from us and had us go look for Professor Zhao, just to embarrass us.”

“Oh my, you all from Tsinghua University are so small-minded.” Song Mingqi shrugged his shoulders again.

“Stop shrugging your shoulders!” Yang Guangyuan was getting more annoyed by the second.

Song Mingqi didn’t say anything.

Did he have to be that aggressive? He was just shrugging his shoulders.

“You can’t even let me shrug my shoulders? You all from Tsinghua University are so mean,” Song Mingqi said. He continued, “We from Beijing University aren’t surprised at all, not because we knew about Tan Mo being the consultant. We’re just open-minded and simple people. We don’t have things like this on our minds constantly. Why are you all so shocked? It’s like you all don’t know how the world works.”

Yang Guangyuan had nothing to say to that.

I really fell for you guys’ evil schemes!

“Tan Mo!” Director Liu waved at her enthusiastically.

He looked as if he had seen his own daughter.

“Director Liu, what are you doing here?” Tan Mo asked.

“Well, I came to thank Professor Zhao first. He’s supported me so much, and it was only because of him that I managed to have you as my consultant. That’s what led to my drama being this successful,” Director Liu announced loudly. “Obviously, I wanted to see you too, and when I heard that you were here, I followed along.”

“Tan Mo, let’s make a deal. Do you want to come help me out with my next historical drama?” Director Liu was brimming with excitement. “You can set your price.”

Tan Mo knew that the help Director Liu was asking for wasn’t as simple as being a consultant.

What about the scriptwriting?

Knowing an accomplished scriptwriter like her, there was no way that Director Liu would want anyone else.

Not only was she a scriptwriter, she was also a consultant. Was there a better combination?

Tan Mo scrunched up her face. “Director Liu, I was going to take a rest first.”

“There’s no rush! ‘Legend of Wei and Jin’ was a special case, so the timing had to be quick. But the next drama I’m shooting will have plenty of time for you to do your thing, so don’t worry,” Director Liu said.

Tan Mo didn’t say anything.

HMM. Tan Mo said quietly, “Director Liu, my brother wants to shoot his own drama too. If you two clash on schedules, I’ll still have to write for him first.”

“That’s not a problem.” Director Liu waved his hands. “Didn’t I promise you that I’d let your brother be my assistant director? We would have to be separated anyway.”

Tan Mo had nothing to say once again.

She suddenly felt as if she had hit her own foot with a rock.

She had lost concentration again.

“All right,” Tan Mo said reluctantly.

“No way! Tan Mo isn’t even part of the History Department. Is she really that good?” Someone from Tsinghua University questioned.

Director Liu had leaned down to talk to Tan Mo, and now he stood up, straightening his back. “You think I would lie about something like this? How would it even benefit me if I lied to you all?”

They all choked on the silence.

They all knew that there was no reason for Director Liu to lie to them.

But this was also really hard for them to accept.

“Also, Tan Mo has never really cared about all the fame,” he said coldly.

If so, she wouldn’t have remained anonymous all this time.

He knew that Tan Mo had just wanted to help him achieve his dream.

Even a mature person like him would have found it hard to hide something this huge.

With a chance like this to get famous, she hadn’t taken it.

This kind of heart seemed too rare to be true.

But of course, as “Legend of Wei and Jin”‘s scriptwriter, the fame seemed to be the most important thing on other peoples’ minds.
