The third part, 2014's "I Love Male Girlfriend"

The fourth part, 2015's "Little Parting"
It tells the story of three families facing their children's further education, study abroad, and adolescence. Because Chen Shu's temperament is not suitable for playing the parents of middle school students full of life, Wang Jun found Huang Lei's proud protégé Haiqing to play his wife in the play.
Unexpectedly, the CP effect between Huang Lei and Haiqing was even better than that of Chen Shu, and this drama achieved win-win results in ratings and word-of-mouth after broadcasting, and also won the 31st Feitian Award for Outstanding TV Series in Realistic Themes. By the way, there is also the joining of the post-00s top-stream group TFBOYS in this drama
Part Five, 2019's Little Joy
This drama is the sister article of "Little Parting", so the male and female protagonists are naturally Huang Lei and Haiqing, still the story of three families, but from junior high school to a more discussed college entrance examination, and also invited two powerful film queens (Tao Hong and Yong Mei) and a low-key film emperor (Wang Yanhui) to assist Huang Lei, so the drama was not unexpectedly exploded after broadcasting!
Wang Jun won the Best Director Award for the drama, and Xiao Tao Hong won the Best Supporting Actress Award for the drama.
Careful netizens may have found that there was a gap of more than 3 years between "Little Farewell" and "Little Joy", and director Wang Jun did not shoot other dramas in the middle? Only one, the super costume drama "Ruyi Chuan", but the male protagonist of this drama, Wang Jun, "fiercely" abandoned Huang Lei and chose Huo Jianhua, who has a more imperial image temperament.
It is said that when the producer looked for Wang Jun to direct, he also suggested that Huang Lei play the role of Qianlong, but Wang Jun refused! Huang Lei also felt very aggrieved, thinking that Wang Jun "why don't you love him anymore?" ”
Although it is a joke, you can also feel Huang Lei's loss. Despite this, Wang Jun still resolutely rejected the producer's suggestion to let Huang Lei play the male number one in "Ruyi Zhuan", because he felt that Huang Lei had acted in a series of family dramas and urban dramas that were too grounded, and the image of the family master man with a big belly had taken root in the hearts of the audience, and it was obviously inappropriate to play the emperor with his own sense of majesty!
It can also be seen from this that although Wang Jun loves Huang Lei, he is by no means a bottomless and principled preference, but based on the basis of the right role, he gives priority to Huang Lei, which is also understandable! After all, people's feelings are there!
