"I think I may have heard it wrong, could you please say it again?"
Acting in a TV series? What a joke! There are a bunch of actors and models in the entertainment industry, both professional and amateur, there is a wide variety of them. Is it necessary to go through the trouble of looking for a stranger you have only met once? !
Jiang Shao gritted his teeth and repeated, "My sister wants you to act in a TV series."
Young Master Jiang’s name is Jiang Sizhen, and he has a younger sister named Jiang Sijin. The Jiang family's base is in Lanzhou. They made their fortune from oil in their early years. After accumulating huge wealth, they set their sights on the military and political circles. Today, the Jiang family has become a well-deserved top wealthy family in the Western Administrative Region. Jiang Shao's father is the fourth child in the family, with three older brothers and a younger brother, all boys and no girls. Several brothers got married one after another, but maybe it was family inheritance or something, but by Jiang Shao's generation, all the children born were still boys. The old man watched his grandchildren being born one after another, and he became completely numb in the end. When Jiang's mother was pregnant with her second child, everyone had the same idea - it would definitely be another boy.
The result was that when Jiang Sijin was born, the whole family was in an excitement. A group of burly men surrounded the baby incubator, and they all smiled so hard that their mouths almost reached their ears. They looked so creepy. Even the old man, who was always ruthless and serious, was almost smiling.
Jiang Shao's sister is not only his sister, but also the little princess held in the hands of the whole family. From childhood to adulthood, there is nothing she cannot get, and a lot of people are vying to send it to her.
Jiang Sijin is 20 years old and a sophomore at Imperial Capital University. Around April last year, she wrote a novel on a whim and published it on Green River Literature City. She then signed a contract with the website and became a V user. The novel's performance was pretty good, but she didn't care about the money. She just liked interacting with readers.
At the beginning of this year, a palace fighting drama adapted from a novel on Green River Literature City became extremely popular, which marked the beginning of the IP craze. After that, the website sold a lot of film and television copyrights one after another. Jiang Sijin didn't pay attention to these things at first, but one day, readers suddenly started discussing under her Weibo that if her article was filmed, it would definitely look great, but unfortunately it was too difficult. The girl who made the comment was just talking, but a psychopath named Joker came in and ruined the atmosphere. She said something like the copyright of a crappy article hasn't even been sold yet and she started looking forward to filming a TV series. He's really shameless.
A fierce war of words began. That person argued with other readers from noon to night, and pushed that Weibo post to over a thousand views. After Jiang Sijin finished climbing the entire tall building, he replied:
I’m sorry, this crappy article really needs a photo shoot.
That person had almost calmed down, but when he saw her reply, he suddenly became energized and started jumping up and down in the comments again. However, Jiang Sijin ignored this person and slapped him in the face with actual actions.
She replied to the message at around nine o'clock in the evening, and the article appeared in the film and television copyright list of Green River Literature City at around eleven o'clock the next morning.
Readers expressed astonishment.
I didn't expect that clown to be so shameless. He continued to make a fuss in the comment section, saying that it was sold, so what, it was just luck. Film and television companies buy so many novels and scripts every year, but only a few of them are actually approved for filming, and most of them are destined to be put at the bottom of the box.
Seeing that the readers were about to quarrel with that person again, Jiang Sijin replied:
Sorry, this crappy article is about to be launched.
About a week later, the script was filed with the General Administration.
Joker: The slap in the face came too fast. I can't continue this show.
While readers were bowing down in praise, they also began to discuss how this article should be filmed. This is just an ordinary novel with a fictional background in ancient times. There are no technical problems. The real difficulty lies in the actors and the godly character settings, especially the male lead. It seems that it is difficult to find a suitable person in the entire entertainment industry.
"Excuse me, could you please tell me the main point? I'm very curious about what kind of person the male lead is, so much so that the entire entertainment industry can't find a suitable person to play the role." Jing Ling interrupted Jiang Shao's long speech.
"Uh..." Jiang Shao's mouth twitched when he heard that. He took out his phone and operated on the screen a few times before handing it over. "You should take a look yourself."
Jing Ling took it and glanced at the title first, "Song of Changle?"
Jiang Shao nodded, "Yes."
So Jing Ling opened the novel and spent about ten minutes skipping through it. Then he returned the phone with a calm expression, "It's really a bit magical."
To put it simply, it is a novel in which the male protagonist disguises himself as a woman and the female protagonist disguises himself as a man, and the main focus is on court intrigue. When the hero Zhao Zizhen was just born, his father was framed and imprisoned, and died in prison shortly afterwards. In order to let him grow up smoothly, his mother announced to others that she had given birth to a daughter. Since then, he has been living as a woman for sixteen years. The heroine Li Yu is the daughter of Queen Lin and the first child of the current emperor. When the current emperor was still the third prince, he competed with the eldest prince for the throne. The two sides were evenly matched. Seeing that the health of the late emperor was getting worse and worse, he simply took a risky move and lied about the gender of the heroine. Taking advantage of the fact that he had given birth to a grandson first, he stepped on the eldest prince to ascend the throne.
The hero is the son of a criminal and has to disguise himself as a woman in order to survive. The heroine is nominally the emperor's eldest son, but she can never be made the crown prince. The two met by chance, became close friends due to similar experiences, and joined hands to pursue great achievements.
Although this is a novel with a female protagonist, the part involving power struggles is written in a very grand manner, with strict logic and each part is closely linked. The only complaint is that the characters of the male and female protagonists are too charming. The man dressed as a woman is beautiful, and the woman dressed as a man is suave and charming, and the people around them don't notice anything wrong at all. In addition, there is a wonderful development at the ending. The heroine finally defeated her younger brothers and ascended the throne, becoming the first empress of the Li Dynasty. The hero, who cleared the grievances of his father, wanted to retire to the countryside, but the heroine would not let him go. Not only that, she also wanted to make him the queen.
The two people who originally supported each other became estranged and fell out over this. The heroine was so angry that she placed the hero under house arrest. Year after year, he still refused to agree. In the sixth year of house arrest, the heroine came to see him on his birthday as usual and asked him if he had changed his mind. She had originally planned to set him free if he still refused. Unexpectedly, he nodded and agreed.
Not long after, the two got married. After drinking the wedding wine, they lay on the wedding bed. The hero took the white jade hairpin that he had given to the heroine from her hair and stabbed it into her chest.
end.
Jing Ling felt a little complicated after reading it, and was a little puzzled, "Why do I feel that the style of the book is a little different in the beginning and the middle?"
"Are you talking about the part about political intrigue?" Jiang Shao asked. Without waiting for Jing Ling to answer, he continued, "Those are what the old man and his men gave to the staff."
Jing Ling: ...
"Xiao Jin has been looking for actors. At first, other people in the family also helped her keep an eye out, but unfortunately no one was suitable, and later they almost forgot about it. It was only after I went back home and heard her talking about it that I remembered it again. I think you are quite suitable. How about considering it? Although this role is a bit embarrassing, you will definitely not be treated unfairly in terms of pay."
To be honest, it is relatively easy for a woman to stand out when she dresses as a man, but when a man dresses as a woman, the difficulty instantly rises to several levels. In fact, there are so many actors in the entertainment industry that it is not impossible to find them if you want to. Of course, it is impossible to achieve 100% restoration. I guess the little princess of the Jiang family is the kind of person who refuses to compromise, so it took so long to settle down.
Jing Ling was thinking about it when Jing Qiu came in with a fruit plate, put it on the table and left. Jing Ling looked at her back and made a decision at once, "I can agree to participate, but there is a condition."
