"Fu Xingjian! Don't think you can just shoot a few scenes and..."
Before the assistant director finished his accusation, Fu Xingjian asked, "How much is missing?"
The assistant director scoffed, "Why? Don't you tell me how much you need to invest?"
Director Wan looked at Fu Xingjian and said conservatively, "Ten million."
Fu Xingjian scratched his ears and asked, "How much did you say?"
Such a small amount of money?
Didn’t he hear that the gaming company withdrew its 20 million investment?
The reason why Actor Gu is the male lead is because the gaming company behind him invested the majority of the money.
Director Wan thought he felt it was too much, and felt disappointed.
He was also confused.
Even though Fu Xingjian has good acting skills, he was just a small extra before.
His friend was just a small extra.
The assistant director said in a mocking tone: "Do you think our crew is some makeshift group?
Do you think the other actors in the crew can be dismissed with just tens of thousands of dollars like you?
Let me tell you, Fu Xingjian, a movie star's salary is several million!
Do you think such a large crew can be dismissed with just a few hundred thousand?"
Director Wan: "Okay, I understand your good intentions. This is not something you can worry about, and your pay won't be reduced. Go back!"
Fu Xingjian's expression remained unchanged. Before the assistant director pulled him out of his chair, he asked, "What's ten million?"
The assistant director laughed out of anger. Did this guy lose his mind after being praised by Director Wan?
"Ten million is nothing? Do you have it?"
Fu Xingjian straightened his clothes and said, "I'll invest 20 million!"
The assistant director was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, "You said you'd invest 20 million?"
"Do you want to throw in game coins? Or happy beans?"
If it weren’t for the fact that ghost money is too unlucky, the assistant director would have wanted to lock it up directly.
Director Wan also thought Fu Xingjian was joking, but he was in no mood to joke now. "Okay, stop it."
Fu Xingjian was speechless. Does he really look like a poor bastard?
After he became extremely rich, he looked in the mirror and found himself becoming more and more handsome!
"Sign the contract, give me your account number, and I'll transfer the money!"
Director Wan was silent.
The assistant director laughed in anger: "You're still acting!"
Fu Xingjian: "My 20 million is not invested in vain. Since the gaming company's investment can make Gu Yingdi the protagonist, I also want Ji Dan to be the protagonist."
Director Wan blurted out: "That won't work!"
Fu Xingjian: "Why not?"
Director Wan was amused, "Not to mention that Actor Gu has a lot of popularity, even his acting skills are not comparable to your friend's.
Besides, using a newcomer would slow down the entire crew's progress, and the other actors' schedules would also be a problem. Who would be responsible for these losses?"
Fu Xingjian said calmly, "Forty million!"
Director Wan didn't react, "What do you mean?"
Fu Xingjian: "Didn't you say that Actor Gu has his own traffic and is delaying the crew's progress?
I will invest another 20 million to compensate for the crew's losses and subsequent publicity and promotion costs."
Director Wan's expression changed constantly, "Aren't you just an extra? Do you really have that much money?"
Director Wan has been anxious and worried about the withdrawal of investment and casting these days, and has not paid attention to the rumors in the crew.
The assistant director's expression changed. He had heard about it.
Fu Xingjian is being kept by someone and drives a luxury car worth tens of millions!
Considering Fu Xingjian's appearance, it's not surprising that he was kept by someone.
In their circle, few ambitious people are clean.
But the assistant director didn’t expect that Fu Xingjian’s sponsor would be willing to spend so much money on him?
"He does."
Fu Xingjian didn't expect the assistant director to believe him. "If you don't believe me, we can sign the contract now. I can transfer the money as soon as the contract is signed."
Director Wan: "...If you really have that much money, why don't you go there yourself?"
If Fu Xingjian wanted the leading male role, Director Wan would only need to ask the screenwriter to modify the character relationship settings, and he would make the decision without having to think about it.
Fu Xingjian: "I'm just doing this for fun. If you really want me to be an actor, I can't do it."
Director Wan: "I'll discuss this with the higher-ups. Wait for my news."
Fu Xingjian nodded, "Okay."
Fu Xingjian returned the assistant director's chair to him and thanked him.
The assistant director calmed down and politely asked him to take the chair away and sit on it.
Fu Xingjian refused.
When Ji Dan saw him coming back, he complained about his lack of tact and asked, "What were you doing at Director Wan's place?"
"Didn't you see that there was a vacuum around Director Wan, and even dogs didn't pass by?" Any dog that passed by would be kicked!
Fu Xingjian: "I'm going to try to get you the leading male role."
Ji Dan was amused. "Why didn't Director Wan beat you to death? He let you come back alive?"
An extra recommended another extra to Director Wan to be the leading male role. Director Wan was considered to have a good temper as he didn't beat him to death.
Fu Xingjian saw that he didn't take it seriously and didn't explain. Then Ji Dan would know whether what he said was true or false.
"Director Wan said he would think about it."
Seeing that what he said sounded like the truth, Ji Dan said, "Then I will wait for good news from Director Wan."
Director Wan’s efficiency was faster than Fu Xingjian had imagined.
That night, Director Wan invited Fu Xingjian and Ji Dan to a hotel.
Ji Dan was a little flattered, but also a little nervous. A small extra like him also had to attend social events and drink?
When Fu Xingjian drove his luxury car to the place.
The producer was watching from the window in the hotel room.
Seeing that the other party was driving a luxury car worth tens of millions, I had a rough idea of the situation.
When Fu Xingjian and Ji Dan entered the private room, there were not only Director Wan but also other people present. They only knew Director Wan and Producer Lu.
