Chapter 55 They are all your concubines
...
As soon as Xu Kai carried Zhu Bing off the horse, a group of women immediately surrounded him:
"How's it going, big sister, is Ma Zhenxing feeling good?"
"Bingbing, are you okay? I was so scared just now. If Yu Qingyun didn't catch you, the consequences would be disastrous!"
"By the way, Yu Qingyun's riding skills are really good. Sister Bing, you didn't see how handsome he looked when he caught you just now."
“…”
Zhu Bing, who is not a weak woman, has gotten over her previous panic after the ambiguous experience with "Ma Zhen".
She reached out and casually stroked her hair, a very feminine gesture.
Then the wanton and seductive expression on her face disappeared, and she looked at Xu Kai seriously.
"Don't be like this." Xu Kai was not used to Zhu Bing like this.
"I don't care." Zhu Bing looked at Xu Kai with a smile.
"Don't look at me like that."
Somehow, when Zhu Bing became normal, Xu Kai looked very abnormal.
"Haha, you're so cute." Zhu Bing laughed wildly, and then suddenly said, "I like you, name your price."
"Don't."
"I have a girlfriend. I don't sell my art or my body."
Xu Kai couldn't help thinking, if Zhu Bing took out a handful of banknotes and threw them at his face, saying that if he accompanied her tonight, the money would be his. Should he refuse her? "My "Empress of a Generation" is about to start filming, but I haven't found a suitable Tang Taizong yet."
"To be honest, those who came to me to apply for the role of Emperor Taizong either had a temperament that didn't match their character, or their acting skills weren't good enough, or they didn't even dare to breathe after seeing me. Anyway, I don't like them and don't want to play opposite them."
"Of course, I admit that I am quite picky, but those people are really bad. Many of them not only look like eunuchs and have no imperial aura, but they can't even ride a horse."
"I don't want to film the warlike Emperor Taizong of Tang riding a stool, a ladder, an electric fake horse, or even a person."
Yang Baobao added: "I've also seen people riding rocking bikes."
"Your image, temperament, acting skills and abilities are all in line with the image of Emperor Taizong of Tang in my mind. Just name your price and come and play the leading role in my play." Zhu Bing said bluntly.
"Not interested." Xu Kai said.
"200,000 per episode." Zhu Bing said temptingly.
Zhu Bing's pay for filming "The Empress of China" was 800,000 yuan per episode.
200,000/episode is definitely not comparable to 800,000/episode.
But Xu Kai and Zhu Bing's market value cannot be compared.
Don't forget that Zhu Bing is now a top-tier actress and her net worth is among the highest in the industry.
And Xu Kai is still a newbie, so a salary of 20,000 per episode for Xu Kai is already a lot.
A pay of 200,000 per episode is already close to that of first-tier stars, and can be considered upper-level for second-tier stars.
The key point is that "The Empress of China" has 80 episodes, which means that Zhu Bing paid Xu Kai a salary of 16 million yuan.
Xu Kai suspected that Zhu Bing might have included the cost of her medical treatment as well as the cost of his saving her just now.
"Isn't this inappropriate?"
"In terms of fame, you are definitely not worth this price right now, but what I value is your acting skills, your abilities, and your potential. The key is that you know everything and can support me at important moments so that I don't fall to the ground and embarrass myself."
Zhu Bing said frankly: "To tell you the truth, this is my first time as a producer. I don't care if I spend a little more money. What I care about is that I can't let those who are waiting to laugh at me get what they want, and I can't let the image I worked so hard to build collapse."
"You think too highly of me." Xu Kai shook his head again: "I am just an ordinary person. I can't handle the role of Emperor Taizong of Tang."
"In the play, you have many wives and concubines." Zhu Bing pointed at Zhang Zhiwei and others: "Many of them are your concubines."
"Well... let's just forget it. I don't want to make myself so busy and so tired." Xu Kai was obviously relieved.
"As long as you play the role of Emperor Taizong of Tang, I will contract all the extras to your father." Zhu Bing threw out the chip that Xu Kai was most interested in.
"...I am touched by your sincerity. If I don't agree, it would seem that I am too unkind." Xu Kai said, "Then let's make a deal."
"Tell me what you want, just say it directly. Why are you playing this game of retreat?" Zhu Bing looked at Xu Kai with a smile on his face.
"Same here." Xu Kai said expressionlessly, "You clearly knew what I wanted, but you just had to say it at the end. Then I can only play with you."
"So, we can be considered heroes who appreciate each other?" Zhu Bing smiled charmingly.
"I am a hero, but I can't resist the temptation of beauty." Xu Kai said.
Xu Kai looked carefully at the women behind Zhu Bing.
I have to admit that there are indeed many beauties among these women, like Zhang Zhiwei, Yang Baobao, and Dan Chun, all of whom are first-class beauties. Thinking of them playing his concubines, Xu Kai suddenly looked forward to the role of Emperor Taizong of Tang.
“I like this answer.”
Zhu Bing extended his hand to Xu Kai and said, "Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
"It's a pleasure working with you." Xu Kai and Zhu Bing held hands together.
Then Zhu Bing and others, who had had enough fun, took Xu Kai to the office of the "Empress of China" crew.
This is a three-story building, all of which has been rented out by Zhu Bing's people - the first and second floors are offices, and the third floor is where Zhu Bing and other women eat, live, play and work.
Here, Zhu Bing threw a contract to Xu Kai.
After reading it carefully and making sure there were no problems, Xu Kai signed his name on the contract.
After signing the contract, Zhu Bing asked Xu Kai for his bank account, and then transferred a 6 million advance payment to Xu Kai through a private bank to finalize the matter.
Since there was nothing else to do, Xu Kai gave Zhu Bing another acupuncture treatment.
But to Xu Kai's disappointment, Zhu Bing didn't wear the golden ring fruit series that she had promised to give her.
In addition, Xu Kai had already released his three years of pent-up anger on Tian Haitang last night.
This time, Xu Kai's acupuncture for Zhu Bing was surprisingly successful.
After Xu Kai left, the women gathered together again.
"Sister, this Yu Qingyun is great, can he be our brother-in-law?"
"Yes, he's good-looking and, most importantly, strong. He's definitely not a little whirlwind in bed. Listen to us, who have been through it before. You can't go wrong with him."
"Your pure and innocent body has been seen naked by him. I think you should just stay with him. You can't stay single forever."
"But I seem to have heard him say that he has a girlfriend."
"What's wrong with having a girlfriend? Even if he's married and has children, as long as Bingbing beckons him, he will definitely abandon his wife and children and throw himself at Bingbing."
"Sister Bing, what are you thinking? Just tell me the truth. If you don't want such a good man, then we will take action."
Zhu Bing looked at Xu Kai's back and said with a smile, "There are plenty of men. If you want one, I'll give it to you."
