Chu Jiang and Xi Ran walked side by side!
Chu Jiang also suggested, "We're not far from the school now, why don't we walk back? It'll take about thirty minutes, and it'll be a good way to relax!"
Xi Ran nodded, "Sure! I have no objection. I usually sit in class, so walking around occasionally is fine!"
The two walked down the road by the river, chatting and laughing, when suddenly someone rushed out and grabbed Chu Jiangyi's wrist!
Chu Jiang was also taken aback. Who was this person?
Could it be a staged accident to extort money?
Chu Jiang also shook off the man's hand and cautiously pulled Xi Ran back several steps.
"Stand there and don't move. Just say what you want to say, and don't get physical!"
"Sorry! I startled you! Let me introduce myself first. My name is Xu Zien! I'm a fledgling director, and I'm currently preparing to shoot a short drama!"
"Who would have thought that when filming was about to start, the male lead was poached by another production team? Now everything is ready, but the male lead is gone. If we can't find a suitable replacement, our entire production team will starve. Without the male lead, no one can start work. We're just waiting around, and every minute that's going to cost money. It's heartbreaking. I think your temperament is very suitable for our male lead character!"
"Could you consider being the male lead in our short drama? The pay is pretty good, we hope you can help us out!"
Chu Jiang was also taken aback. He had recently heard his roommates discussing the most popular things right now, and making short dramas seemed like a good project.
He just wanted to earn some pocket money to spend, because his dad was too stingy, and the little allowance he received was no longer enough to support him.
Anyway, he was planning to look for a part-time job, and this opportunity was perfect, so he could give it a try!
How much is the payment?
Xu Zien was taken aback. He hadn't expected that this handsome man would start by asking for payment. The male lead of his short drama had quit because he thought the pay was too low, so he was a little unsure of himself!
A short drama requires a lot of actors, and the male lead's fee was already very high. Xu Zien was afraid of messing it up again, so she gritted her teeth and added a little more on her own!
This guy doesn't look like someone who's short of money; he looks like a rich young master. Let's round it up to a whole number!
"Two hundred thousand! How about I give you two hundred thousand after I finish filming a short drama?"
Chu Jiang and Xi Ran looked at each other, shouting in their hearts!
Is making short dramas really that lucrative?
Xi Ran was so shocked her jaw almost dropped!
Despite her shyness, she stepped forward and introduced herself, "Do you need a female lead for your short drama? What do you think of me?"
Xu Zien waved her hands repeatedly, "No need! No need! We already have a female lead in our short drama. Right now, we need someone as outstanding as a handsome man. We don't need a woman for the time being!"
Xi Ran pouted, "That's sexism!"
"No, no, no, young lady, you've misunderstood. We've already got the female lead, and all the supporting actresses are arranged. All we need is a male lead. We can collaborate in the future if there's an opportunity. As long as you don't mind the low pay!"
"I don't mind! I don't care how much you give me, I don't mind if I'm not the female lead, I can even accept a villainous supporting character!"
"Okay, okay, let's work together sometime. Could you ask your boyfriend to step in and help us out right now?"
Xi Ran was about to explain that Chu Jiangyi was not her boyfriend when Chu Jiangyi interrupted her!
"Director Xu Zien, is it true that you said you could give me 200,000 yuan for a short drama?"
"Absolutely true! We can go and sign the contract right away!"
"Not now, I have to go back to school to register. Can I get back to you tomorrow?"
"Sure! No problem. Handsome, could you scan a green bubble?"
"Sure! We'll contact each other via text message!"
"good!"
The two exchanged contact information!
Chu Jiang and Xi Ran then left!
"Why didn't you agree to him just now? You could have just signed the contract and gone back to school. It wouldn't have taken up any time. Were you worried that Aunt Yu and Uncle Chu wouldn't agree?"
"I can make my own decisions without asking my parents!"
