Chapter 52: I will never abandon you
...
Knowing that Xu Kai would not marry Tian Haitang, Tian Youfu suddenly felt that the bank card Xu Kai gave him had become hot. He was in a dilemma whether to accept it or not.
yes.
Tian Youfu sent Tian Haitang to Xu Kai with the intention of relying on Xu Kai to turn things around.
But Tian Haitang is Tian Youfu's relative who depends on him for life. Tian Youfu has never thought of letting Tian Haitang become Xu Kai's mistress. What he really wants is that Tian Haitang can marry Xu Kai so that he can become Xu Kai's well-deserved father-in-law.
But Xu Kai has now made it clear that he will not marry Tian Haitang.
This put Tian Youfu in a dilemma! He wanted to return the bank card to Xu Kai and take Tian Haitang away, but Tian Youfu was reluctant to do so - he was already over 50, old, and disabled. This might be his last chance to turn things around in his life. If he missed it, he might die in poverty, or even die miserably with a lot of debt.
But if he doesn't return it, what's the difference between him, Tian Youfu, and selling his daughter? Seeing this, Xu Kai smiled and said, "Don't think too much. I just won't get married. There's nothing else. I can assure you that as long as Haitang is willing to stay with me, I will definitely not abandon her."
After hearing Xu Kai's assurance, Tian Youfu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's fine..."
"Well... Xu Kai is still young and hasn't had enough fun yet. It's normal for him to want to play for a few more years. When he's older in a few years, maybe he'll change his mind about not wanting to get married."
"By the way, we can let Haitang give Xu Kaihuai a child. By then, even if he doesn't want to get married, Xu Yun and Cui Min will force him to get married, and Haitang can get married with a child."
“…”
When Xu Kai and Tian Youfu came back, Xu Yun saw that Tian Youfu was no longer as excited as before, so he asked Xu Kai: "What did you say to your uncle Tian? Why does he seem a little disappointed?"
"Nothing, we just had a quick chat."
Xu Yun, who had something on his mind, did not ask any more questions. He stammered, "Well... I have something to tell you."
Seeing Xu Yun like this, Xu Kai smiled and said, "My dear father, do you have to talk to me like this?"
Xu Yun thought so too, and then said bluntly: "Son, look at my business, it is becoming more and more prosperous, and there are more and more people coming."
Xu Yong pointed his thumb at the extras behind him and said, "I'm not bragging. These are the elites I selected after several rounds of screening. Except for Ah Wei and Xiao Tao, almost all of them have special skills..."
Xu Kai interrupted Xu Yun who was about to show off to him and said, "Dad, the time I agreed to meet with the makeup artist is almost up. Just get straight to the point."
Xu Yun smacked his lips with a hint of unfulfilled satisfaction, and then went straight to the point: "I have too many extras under my command. There is almost no room for so many people here in Escape. If there are no new projects, it will limit my development."
After all, "Get Out" is just a movie with a running time of less than two hours, not a TV series with dozens of episodes. Moreover, "Get Out" is not an epic production, but just an action movie with a slightly larger investment. How many extras can be used in total?
In fact, the total cost of the extras in "Escape" was just over 1 million, which is about the same as Xu Kai's own salary.
There are more than 40 extras here alone.
Many of them are special actors who can only play some special roles.
It is indeed difficult for the "Escape" crew to digest all the resources under Xu Yun and his team, which are expanding rapidly.
It is no wonder that Xu Yun wanted Xu Kai to help him find another crew.
"How about this, I'll try to find a bigger TV crew for you guys."
"We think the same thing. Movies are too thin and can't make much money. TV series still make more money."
Xu Yun changed his tone and said, "But you don't have to wait until later. Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"?"
Xu Kai looked at Xu Yun in confusion: "What good opportunity?"
"You don't know yet?"
"What else do I not know?"
"Zhu Bing's epic drama "The Empress" is about to start filming."
Through Xu Yun's narration, Xu Kai realized that Zhu Bing did not come to Hengdian specifically for Zhang Zhiwei's matter, but actually came to Hengdian to film "The Empress of China".
"The Empress of China" is a historical drama that Zhu Bing Studio has been preparing for more than two years. It tells the story of the young girl Wu Ruyi's first entry into the palace, the series of power struggles she experienced, and her final ascension to the throne wearing the imperial robe and crown.
According to Xu Yun, "Empress of China" was tailor-made for Zhu Bing - Zhu Bing Studio filmed it just to showcase Zhu Bing's charm.
It can be said that "The Empress of China" is the ambitious work of Zhu Bing and her studio.
Moreover, the investment of "Empress of the Generation" is as high as 300 million yuan, and it is expected to take 8 months to shoot. The total cost of the group performance is as high as tens of millions. It is the well-deserved number one project in Hengdian and even in the whole of China this year! Generally speaking, the group leader can earn about 10% of the total cost of the group performance - if the channels are wide and the people are cheap, they can earn more.
In this way, assuming that Xu Kai can help Xu Yun get the project of "The Empress of China", then Xu Yun may have an income of several million.
Xu Kai looked at his father, whose ambitions were growing, with a half-smile.
Xu Yun's face turned red. He knew that he was a little too greedy, so he took back some of his words: "You don't have to contract it all to me. Just give me a piece so that I can support my brothers."
This is not a difficult matter for Xu Kai at all. Don't forget that Zhu Bing has not yet paid Xu Kai's medical expenses.
As long as Xu Kai helps Xu Yun and his team get the big project of "The Empress of China", Xu Yun and his team will not lack work for at least half a year.
If Xu Yun and the others work harder, Xu Kai might be able to realize his wish of retiring from the entertainment industry ahead of schedule.
"Okay, I'll go talk to Zhu Bing about this tonight."
After hearing what Xu Kai said, Xu Yun immediately walked towards Cui Min and others with a heroic and high-spirited look.
Seeing Xu Yun walking so smoothly, Tian Youfu didn't care about his loss. He quickly went to Xu Yun and asked, "How is it, did Qingyun agree?"
"For his father's sake, how dare he not sell it?" Xu Yun said proudly.
"It is said that only Qingyun can cure Zhu Bing's strange disease, so as long as Qingyun is willing to ask, I guess Zhu Bing will more or less give Qingyun some face." Tian Youfu analyzed calmly.
At this time, Jing Guangwei and others also gathered around.
"As long as we can take on the project of 'The Empress of China', we won't have to worry this year," said Jing Guangwei.
"If this really happens, Uncle Xu, you will be one of the most famous leaders in Hengdian," said Chen Tao.
"Not only that, if Uncle Xu can get all the extras in "The Empress of China", then Uncle Xu will almost be able to sit on the throne of the number one extra in Hengdian." Zhang Gong complimented.
“…”
Watching Xu Yun and others having a heated discussion, Xu Kai suddenly felt that ordinary people are actually pretty good and can easily feel happy.
But I have lived too long, experienced too many things, and gained too much, and my happiness index is too low.
Shaking his head, Xu Kai walked into the set...
