Chapter 48 Found a Treasure
"I'm saying your family is seriously ill. How could anyone expect their husband to cheat?"
Sister Luan was completely speechless. If this isn't mental illness, what is it?
In order to attack the opponent, you even sacrifice your hometown?
Aren’t you afraid that Jiang Fanyu will lose control and run to the opponent’s side?
"How can this be called hoping for her husband to cheat? Jiang Fanyu couldn't possibly care less about Zhou Xuran, and he couldn't possibly care less about any other human being besides profit. In his eyes, the throne of the richest man is the vast sea of stars he needs to conquer. Anyone who stands in his way will be crushed into dust, leaving nothing behind."
If the book didn't explicitly mention this to emphasize his terrifying aura, would I have dared to provoke him, given his support for the heroine's second sister? Given the fundamental premise of romance novels that there's no such thing as pure friendship between men and women, how could they possibly have something else going on?
The second sister is the one who turns romance novels into an outlier who has no CP and focuses on her career.
If it weren't for this, I'd be afraid that my second sister would kill me.]
Now, the second sister is about to become the successor of Zhou Group, with her scumbag father, the current richest man, standing behind her.
The future may very well be the biggest stumbling block on Jiang Fanyu's road to becoming the richest man.
They are at loggerheads with each other, and I'm afraid they will have a fight.
"Then you got married with him..."
What kind of bullshit are you using? Have you ever been to school?
"We both get what we need. You know, it's just a marriage by agreement. He claims to be very filial and that he got married to please his family. Of course, I am also filial, and I also want to take care of my family and have a child. The agreement stipulates that he will pay child support, the child will have my surname, and I will have custody. It's perfect that I can keep the child even if the father is gone."
Sister Luan: "You are indeed sick."
"It doesn't matter. As long as it's not illegal, it's fine. Even with someone like Mo Chubai, we can only criticize him morally, not punish him legally. The minimum standard of not removing the program is still achievable. Don't worry, don't worry..."
It brought the topic back to the show.
"These guys are all special or extras with over three years of experience. They're all professionally trained and their acting skills are flawless. Which one do you think strikes your eye?"
Sister Luan stopped nagging Ye Mengyu about whether those idiots in her family were mentally unstable.
I just happened to receive photos and information of several carefully selected actors from the head of extras at the film and television city, so I asked Ye Mengyu for his opinion.
Every industry has its own rules. She was looking for a group actor leader with the best reputation. She herself played supporting roles in various crews and was considered a well-known 18th-tier actor.
The money is also sufficient.
I believe they won't do anything too extreme.
She explained it very clearly: it was a short play of about 20 minutes, and the pay was 3,000 yuan, including food, lodging, and travel expenses.
For this little money, you have to come all the way here. You can't earn multiple incomes at the same time. It's a short drama and it's impossible to be broadcast on a big platform. It's not worth spending a lot of money for it.
Of course, she had found an intermediary to introduce this person in order to hide her identity. If people knew that she was the one hiring someone, they would probably think that it was Ye Mengyu who was hired on "Love is Deep", but that would be hard to say.
Whenever there is an opportunity to be exposed, people always scramble for it.
Ye Mengyu took out her mobile phone and looked at the five resumes sent by Sister Luan.
The first one said, "This one won't do. The kid is too young and has a chubby face. He's not good at playing a middle-aged father. Not only does he have no life, but his face isn't suitable either. However, he's okay as the eldest son. Living in the special environment of a kidnapped family, the psychological and environmental pressures are extremely great, so he still needs some acting skills."
The second one, "This one won't work either. There's too much in this man's eyes. He wants too much, and his ambitions are too obvious. He has a sinister look. He can play a human trafficker, but not the male lead. Human traffickers should be tortured to death. If he doesn't mind taking this kind of role for his first film, you can consider it."
The third one, "Is this already an 18th-tier brand? I can consider it."
The fourth one asked, "Isn't this age a bit too high?"
The fifth one: "This isn't..."
[Holy shit, holy shit, isn't this Qiao Xing? The only future big shot to beat Jiang Fanyu for Best Actor, and the leading man in another book. His sister Qiao Ran should still be in high school, right? The future all-star actress, ahhhh, I've found a treasure...]
Looking at the resume and the still somewhat childish face, Ye Mengyu was so excited.
Finally, there appeared a character that did not exist in Ye Xiaoyu's parallel world and only existed in the book.
This book is one of her favorite novels!
It was written by another author, but he is a good friend of the author of the novel world she lives in, so Jiang Fanyu makes a guest appearance in the book.
Although they are good friends, their levels are very different.
It has a terrible ending, the setting is arbitrary, and the plot may drift into space at any time.
This is a masterpiece with rigorous logic, smooth plot and fascinating storyline.
Ever since she knew that the book had been incorporated into this world, she had always wanted to find Qiao Xing and Qiao Ran, the brother and sister pair of movie stars.
Why not sign them quickly while the big guys are still small shrimps? What are you waiting for?
"Why, do you know this person?"
Sister Luan’s acting skills were on point, and I was so excited inside, but I could still go through the motions without listening to my inner voice.
"I don't know him. I saw that he has a unique figure and looks like a movie star. He has a bit of Jiang Fanyu's temperament. Sister, please ask him to come over and sign him."
Sister Luan readily agreed, "Sure. Do you want him to play the role of the father?"
Ye Mengyu shook her head, "No need. Let's go with the third one, Li Yue. Let Qiao Xing sign first. Aren't we going to bring in funds to film a period drama? Let's get him to play the male lead."
[Hehehe, a future movie star is playing the male lead for me. My status will instantly rise!]
Sister Luan: ...Aren’t you afraid that your acting skills will make people crumble in seconds and they won’t be able to carry on the show.
I thought this in my heart, but replied, "Okay, I'll call him over first. If we want to sign him, we have to go through the process, try out the role, and then ask him if he is willing to sign with the company, saying that the role is not suitable but he is very satisfied with the person."
No one called directly to sign someone.
Looks like a liar.
"Okay, then call all five of them over and get them to sign, right? Anyway, I'm going to be the financial backer and start my own projects, so I can't have many people to lead them. I'll never have to worry about not having roles. I can't let the capital sway me and bring in some extras to ruin my show."
"Okay. I'll go talk to Li Lei and borrow their office for an audition. We can sign the contract right after the audition. They have a contract template in their company, so we don't have to run back and forth."
"Sister, you can't be so straightforward, right? Signing an agency contract is such a big deal, shouldn't I consult a lawyer and think it over? Can I just sign it so casually?"
Sister Luan curled her lips. "You, who were born in Rome, how could you understand the mentality of those struggling at the bottom? If a company is willing to sign you, it means there's a movie to shoot. And a movie to shoot means you'll officially debut, with more opportunities, more work, and more important roles. Why are you still hesitating? Hesitating for even a second is disrespectful to a passerby."
All right.
No wonder she'd heard so many stories in her past life about artists being cheated out of contracts, many even quitting the industry. Some were driven to death. And there were also unscrupulous companies that profited immensely from paying liquidated damages.
She also helped a young idol, the only one she had ever supported who didn't suffer a blow, to successfully leave the entertainment industry. Firstly, the idol passed the civil service exam, and secondly, she gave him leverage over the company. This allowed him to successfully terminate his contract and escape unscathed.
Of course, for her fans, she is still very dark. Other idols have collapsed, but this one has made her so dark that she has to quit the circle...
She used to be unable to understand why people would jump into the trap even though they knew it was a trap.
Now it seems that we are facing what may be the only chance, so let's just gamble.
No time to think about the consequences.
