Chapter 60 Let the heroine make money for herself
Seeing the director's wolf-like face, Jiang Ning opened a bag of snacks and ate them, pretending to be undecided.
"The director needs to talk to my agent about contract renewal."
Sister Du told her that the program crew might ask her to renew her contract. Anyway, although the offer was good, it was not a good deal if she was the first to do so. So she just pushed it to her and let her negotiate.
Artists who have signed contracts with a company usually have to ask the company for advice before accepting any notices. Some companies even have clear regulations that prohibit them from accepting external dramas or contacting other resources without authorization. Therefore, the director did not think that Jiang Ning was fooling him.
"Okay, wait until your agent comes over and I'll tell her."
Another ten minutes later, Du Ying arrived. In order to avoid any accidents, the director started talking to her with a smile. They exchanged several contracts until both of them smiled with satisfaction. Then Du Ying took the new contract and returned to the nanny car.
"See, this is the power of effective exposure. The director isn't willing to let you go, and the contract benefits have increased significantly. They've offered you one million per episode. Plus, there's no suitable announcement for you right now. I think you should consider finishing this variety show."
Du Ying showed the contract to Jiang Ning and explained the benefits of renewing the contract with the program team.
Jiang Ning didn't understand the terms in the contract, so when she saw Xu Guanyi looking over, she handed it over.
Du Ying looked at him without saying anything, but just asked, "Do you want to continue to participate in the recording?"
Before Jiang Ning could answer, Xu Guanyi raised his head and spoke.
"There's no problem with the contract. The production team has given Ms. Jiang a lot of freedom. It's OK for Ms. Jiang to continue filming."
After knowing that Jiang Ning eats melons outside the plot and needs to eat melons to save energy, the official has changed from being permissive to being positive about Jiang Ning staying in the entertainment industry. They have even formed a team to send Jiang Ning appropriate notices to ensure that she enjoys eating melons and continuously saves energy.
"Then sign it." Jiang Ning signed her name on the contract neatly.
Du Ying put the contract away and talked to Jiang Ning about joining the crew tomorrow, not stopping until she sent him to Lu's house.
When Jiang Ning entered the house, Lu Yuan, a wealthy and idle person, was the only one at home. The others were either at work or had appointments.
"I thought you would go to your second brother's place." Seeing Jiang Ning come back, the bored Lu Yuan was very happy.
"I have to join the crew tomorrow. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to make it back, so I didn't go." Jiang Ning scanned the game interface on Lu Yuan's phone and moved closer curiously.
"The crew is about to start filming. As an investor, should I go and join in the fun?" Lu Yuan pondered and then said something else.
"Are you actors particular about pomp and circumstance? Otherwise, I'll prepare a grand support event for you to make you proud."
Jiang Ning quickly refused, "I'm just a supporting actress. There's no need to make such a big fuss. If I overshadow the male and female leads, negative press releases will follow."
Lu Yuan kept saying that whoever dared to buy the negative press release would be sued, but she thought that Jiang Ning's popularity would overshadow the male and female protagonists, and that she would not be very happy on the set, so she did not mention the support.
Seeing the two of them chatting, Xu Guanyi did not stay in the living room and quietly returned to the room arranged for him by the Lu family.
While the two were talking, Lu Yuan's game screen turned gray. Lu Yuan cursed the player opposite her, then looked up and saw Jiang Ning looking at her phone. She raised her eyebrows and said.
"Want to play games? I'll take you flying."
Jiang Ning was waiting for her to say this, so he immediately took out his mobile phone, downloaded the game, and followed Lu Yuan obediently.
It was Lu Yuan's first time bringing a girl along, so he seemed very excited. He swept through the game with Jiang Ning and had such a great time that he didn't even say the Zuan quote anymore.
They played from the living room to the game room, and didn't turn off the game until the rest of the family came back and called them downstairs for dinner.
Everyone at the dinner table was very happy to see Jiang Ning. They kept following the people who were broadcasting live and even scolded Jin Zhe for setting the fire late at night.
After hearing what they said, Jiang Ning picked up her phone and saw that the police notice had indeed come out. There was solid evidence that Jin Zhe had deliberately set fire to the show while the guests were asleep, and he had been arrested. The news also became a hot topic, making netizens sweat.
Especially the fans of the queen, seeing Jin Zhe being so paranoid and starting a fire at the slightest disagreement, they are very glad that their idol broke up with Jin Zhe, otherwise who knows what would happen if they dated such a person for a long time.
Because of this incident, a large number of these fans became fans of the variety show out of gratitude.
"How do you find people for your variety show? You even invite criminals like this to film the show. Aren't you putting the guests in danger?"
When Gu Yunrong thought of Jin Zhe carrying a large bucket of gasoline and pouring it on Jiang Ning and her friends' tent, she couldn't help but feel frightened, even though she knew that anyone who tried to hurt Jiang Ning would suffer the consequences. She even wanted Jiang Ning to quit the variety show.
But her daughter was having fun in the variety show, at least much happier than when she was at home. Gu Yunrong sighed inwardly, but still did not use her parental authority to force Jiang Ning to quit the show.
"We can't do background checks on everyone on the show. There are some invisible criminals among the guests that the production team doesn't even know about." Jiang Ning comforted her.
"Mom, I'm fine, right? And Brother Xu is here. Those artists are not professional criminals. They can't hurt me."
While comforting him, Jiang Ning talked about some interesting things in the variety show and about joining the crew tomorrow, successfully diverting Gu Yunrong's attention.
If Jiang Ning were to film a movie, she would remind everyone of her previous thoughts.
"This is Ningning's first time filming, we have to go and see it." Lu Yanqing really wanted to meet the person that the cold and lonely Huaizhi liked, and what kind of girl she was.
"I'm going to visit the set. I also invested in their crew." Lu Yuan didn't know that her domineering father was planning to take advantage of her, so she responded very actively.
Although she couldn't support Jiang Ning, Lu Yuan felt that it should be feasible for her to visit the set as an investor, support Jiang Ning, and prevent others from bullying her.
"Invest? When did you invest?" Lu Yanqing still didn't know when Lu Yuan met someone in the entertainment industry besides Jiang Ning.
"Just a few days ago, Jiang Ning introduced me to this, and Shuyan and I both invested some money."
Lu Yuan, who was making an investment for the first time, was still a little proud, especially after knowing from Jiang Ning's heart that this investment was basically a sure win.
As far as Lu Yanqing could remember, his daughter had never shown any interest in investment. But this time she was investing in a film crew, which seemed to be related to Jiang Ning.
Lu Shiyu, who thought the same, spoke up.
"Is your crew still short of money? If so, Shengshi Entertainment can also invest."
Shengshi Entertainment is a company under the Lu Group, but Lu Group’s main business is not the entertainment industry. Compared with Lu Group, Shengshi Entertainment is just a small company.
"The funds should be sufficient at the moment." Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said.
However, when Jiang Ning heard that Lu Shiyu was going to invest in the crew and seemed to want to develop in the entertainment industry, she became confused.
[Why is Big Brother thinking of investing in a production? Is there something wrong with the Lu Corporation?]
Lu Shiyu twitched the corner of his mouth.
You should think about the company.
"Well, Lu Corporation invests in quite a few projects every year, some of which involve the entertainment industry. Jiang Ning, you're in the entertainment industry, so if you have any good projects, you can tell your family about them. When you make money, I'll give you a big red envelope."
Jiang Ning's eyes lit up when he heard there was a red envelope to be won.
"There are many profitable projects in the entertainment industry. For example, Lin Mian, who is in the same crew as me, is a potential stock. The TV series and movies she stars in will definitely be a hit." Bao
