"Is it tasty?"
"Not bad. I also want some cherry tomatoes."
She turned a page of the script and continued to read it while leaning on Su Ran's shoulder.
"Sister Reba, do you still need to read the script? Aren't big stars like you supposed to? There's a dedicated dubbing service in post-production, so you don't even need to read the lines."
"One bad rat shit spoils the whole barrel. That's others. I'm a professional actor. Don't compare me to those female stars who have nothing but looks and tens of millions of fans. Not all actors are what you think. There are many actors who work very hard. In the words of Zhang Yimou...all veteran actors started out as fresh meat."
"Then why do some people who clearly don't have the acting skills still act?"
Reba sat up and looked at Su Ran: "You have no acting skills. I will give you 80 million and ask you to act in a play. Will you do it?"
"Of course."
"Yeah, if you're going to act, why shouldn't those young and handsome guys make that kind of money? And a lot of people say celebrities' salaries are too high. Actually... it's all determined by the market. It's just a rising tide that lifts all boats. The market is so huge, the audience is so huge, but there are only a few people who recognize it, and everyone's vying for it, so it's high. Stephen Chow's salary was around 20 million in the 1990s, but that was the 1990s. His films were box office hits not just in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but all over Southeast Asia. Hollywood stars are more expensive than Chinese stars because they have a global market."
She put a cherry tomato in Su Ran's mouth and continued, "It's very simple to lower the pay. Everyone should watch less TV dramas, browse less video websites, and go to the cinema less often. That way, the popularity of the entertainment sector will drop. Once it drops, investors will be less likely to invest money, and the pay of celebrities will drop."
"Oh..." Su Ran nodded and put his arm around Reba's slender waist. "How much is your salary?"
Reba pushed Su Ran's hand away underwater and stood up, the water just covering her thighs. "Ask Aunt Luo, Aunt Luo has invested in a new drama."
Su Ran also stood up. The two of them stood in the water. Reba's face was red from the steaming heat. She looked at Su Ran standing in front of her with his bare chest, "What are you doing? You promised me not to do anything to me."
Su Ran looked at the popular female star in front of her and said, "Sister Reba, I actually have several female stars that I like, such as Cheng Xiao, Yang Chaoyue, and your boss Da Mi Mi. They are all female stars that I have pursued before. How about you introduce them to me next time?"
Reba shook her head: "I don't want to introduce them to you. It's enough for you to know me. If you know them, you won't recognize me."
Su Ran: "Not really."
Reba: "It's better not to. You and I know each other well. Wanqing said you are a little puppy who lacks milk. You forget what to eat when you have milk."
Su Ran: "Wan Qing said this to me, I'm going to call and ask right now."
"Oh, don't ask." Reba grabbed Su Ran's hand and warned, "If you ask, she'll know it was me who said it. I warn you not to ask her. If I find out, you're done for."
but…
Reba smiled and said, "I'm curious about you. Why do you only like female celebrities? I've never heard that you like female internet celebrities. Do you have any female internet celebrities you like?"
"Female internet celebrities? Not even one."
"Why?"
"I have a group where videos of big internet celebrities are exposed every day. In the end, the internet celebrities become adult entertainment. I am not interested in female internet celebrities at all."
"Is that really the case?"
"Of course! Nothing else! That's it!"
Su Ran was too confident, which made Reba suspicious.
It's impossible for Su Ranqi to talk about how she was hurt by a female internet celebrity in high school. She would never tell it even if she was beaten to death. The once naive Su Ran was once obsessed with His Highness Qiao. She even spent 6 yuan to get a fan card. During that period, she gave His Highness Qiao free glow sticks every day. As a result, when the beauty filter was turned off, the boss on the list was so scared that he took a train and ran away overnight.
How could Su Ran talk about such a stain in his life, that he had been cheated by an old lady?
Who wasn’t a loli when they were young? Who wasn’t Princess Qiao when they were young? It’s just that time is merciless, and Princess Qiao has become an aunt.
"Really?"
"No, no, no, don't ask anymore. I won't do it anymore."
Su Ran tried to slip away, but Reba chuckled a few times and reached out to pull him back. "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I can tell from your expression that you've been hurt by some internet celebrity."
Yes! When Su Ran was still a minor, the only time she recharged her account, she was deeply deceived by His Highness Qiao's divine appearance.
Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of snakes for ten years.
"Su Ran, if you have some free time now, could you go over the script with me so I can rehearse tomorrow's play?"
"I'm not interested anymore."
Su Ran looked like he had no desire to live.
"Hey, let's just rehearse for a while, okay~"
Reba shook Su Ran's hand and said coquettishly, she knew Su Ran couldn't stand girls shaking her hand and acting coquettishly, and he would agree in an instant.
"Okay, okay, what play do you want to rehearse?"
Reba sneered, it was indeed like that.
"etc……"
Reba brought the manuscript to Su Ran.
Su Ran took a look and said disdainfully, "Jumping into the Forgetful River? No, aren't there any plot points in fairy tales these days? I can tell the whole story structure just by looking at this Forgetful River scene. You must be playing a small fairy, the naive and innocent kind, and then you fall in love with the male lead, the immortal who governs the heavens. Then your life story must be special, like some primordial power or something. In the end, you jump into the Forgetful River and become a mortal, and the immortal comes down to find you. Blah blah blah, some melodramatic plot, right?"
