Chapter 214 High-Paying Part-Time Job
Xu Ying's cheeks puffed out. "Something about animals?"
Jiang Mo nodded: "After this is done, I will donate half of my salary from the latest drama to the rescue center."
Xu Ying almost choked when he heard Jiang Mo offer such generous conditions.
Half of the top male actor’s salary?
That would be several million, right?
Xu Ying's eyes gleamed with a greedy light: "Really, you didn't lie to me?"
Jiang Mo raised his lips to a faint smile: "If you don't believe me, wait until the recording of the show is over and we'll make a written agreement. I can't escape if it's in black and white."
Xu Ying nodded repeatedly while holding her bowl: "Okay!"
As dinner was coming to an end, the program team began to let everyone choose their rooms using points.
The program team stipulated that there were five dormitories for the five employees, and the person with the most points would choose first.
These five dormitories are luxurious cabins in West Village, with two floors and 1.8-meter beds, a living room, and private showers with 24-hour hot water supply.
The desert mobile house has a 1.5-meter bed and a separate bathroom.
The Gobi Bear Companion Crib Room, as the name suggests, has a 1.2-meter-wide crib placed in the Gobi Bear's house, where brave bears can pet the bear.
Dormitory for staff - I slept in a dormitory in a large tent with other staff members of the production team. The conditions were similar to those in a student dormitory.
And the most basic conditions are a tent, which requires celebrity guests to choose a location and set up the tent themselves.
To everyone's surprise, Jiang Mo, who had the most points, did not choose the best West Village luxury cabin, but chose the mediocre Gobi Bear Companion Crib Room and lived with the Gobi Bear.
What's wrong with Jiang Mo? He respects the elderly and loves the young, but he should at least choose a comfortable prefab house for himself, with a private bathroom.
[Maybe he's a fan of the Gobi bear and the fennec fox?]
[It's hard to say, what if he's a fanboy of Xu Ying?]
Yao Yingzhe, who ranked second in points, saw this and his mouth almost cracked to the back of his ears: "Our comrade Jiang Mo really knows how to respect the elderly and love the young. He works quietly even on the show. I really like such down-to-earth young people!"
Yao Yingzhe "got a bargain" and chose the most luxurious wooden house in West Village.
Ming Xueying, who ranked third in points, chose the mobile house, and Ye Jie chose the large bunk bed. She was just glad that she didn't get ahead of herself and accepted the task of helping the two foxes, Brother Fox and Brother Fox, lose weight. Otherwise, she wouldn't even have a large bunk bed to sleep on and would have to set up a tent by herself.
Jia Yao was left holding the tent in pain. He felt insecure, so he pitched the tent directly near the director's tent. It took him two hours to set up the tent.
After the director's cue, the first episode of "Desert Survival Rules" was recorded~
The exciting parts of the live broadcast replay will be edited into a compilation by Xuelang Video and put on the platform for viewers who do not have time to watch the live broadcast.
After this episode, Xu Ying's popularity on the entire network has increased significantly, and commercial quotations have also increased rapidly. The quotation for a single advertisement has reached 500,000 before tax, and invitations for cooperation from the backstage are flying in like snowflakes.
Xu Ying felt that it was time for her to recruit a few assistants. She decided to submit a report to the organization tomorrow and apply for assistants. The workload was too heavy and the rescue station was too busy to handle it.
On the morning of the next day, Xu Ying sat at the dining table in the shelter, staring at Jiang Mo across from her.
Jiang Mo diligently opened the thermal bag and handed Xu Ying breakfast, which included hot milk, beef noodles, pre-meal fruit, and post-meal dessert.
"Stationmaster Xu, I've inquired about this. You desert rescuers have two days off a week, and you can choose when to take your leave."
Jiang Mo asked in a questioning tone: "I wonder if you are interested in doing a part-time job during your vacation?"
Can you earn millions by doing a part-time job? Xu Ying narrowed his eyes and suddenly felt that the matter was not simple: "Tell me about the content of the part-time job first."
"It's like this." Jiang Mo said slowly, "I'm going to join the crew this Wednesday. The drama I've taken on is the costume drama 'Desert Swordsman', a suspenseful martial arts drama. In the drama, I will come into contact with all kinds of desert animals. Of course, this drama was approved by the Xizhou Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, and it is also to promote the desert."
After hearing what Jiang Mo said, Xu Ying became even more confused: "So why do you need my help? Are you afraid of desert animals?"
Not really. Jiang Mo's interactions with the camel and the fennec fox are all quite normal.
"The drama 'Swordsman of the Desert' involves a lot of horseback riding scenes. The last time I took on a drama with horseback riding scenes was a year and a half ago."
Jiang Mo's eyes dimmed when he mentioned this: "A year and a half ago, when I was filming a political drama, the horse I was riding got frightened for no reason and I was thrown off. My left leg was almost crippled."
"Ever since then, I've had a psychological trauma about riding horses."
"We were only halfway through filming when I was injured and had psychological trauma, so we had to use a body double for the scenes where I was about to be shot."
Jiang Mo gave a bitter smile.
Because there were too many stand-ins in this drama and he was not in good condition during filming, his opponents found a point to criticize him and issued press releases to criticize him extensively. He was silent for a long time, and later he starred in a serious drama and his reputation returned.
But there aren't that many opportunities to act in serious dramas.
Jiang Mo shook his head: "The quality of modern drama scripts is generally too poor, and the male protagonists of costume dramas can't avoid horse riding scenes."
"This time, I know you're a seasoned animal language communicator, and I've seen you train horses. I think I'd feel more at ease if you were on set to supervise."
Jiang Mo said this with a little excitement: "If you can disguise yourself as my assistant and watch the horse riding scenes on the set, after the filming is over, I will donate half of my salary for this drama to you."
Xu Ying put down the butterfly cake that Jiang Mo had brought her with such courtesy: "You mean, you want me to pretend to be your assistant and go with you to the set of the TV series? I can just watch the horseback riding scenes and then I can get half of your salary?"
Is it that simple? Nothing else to do?
This job is so great, compared to being both a father and a mother in this variety show.
Jiang Mo nodded: "Yes, otherwise I would not feel safe."
"And the horseback riding scenes were all filmed intensively at the stables, probably not more than fifteen days."
——"Just let me stand guard on the set, no other requests? That's so nice?"
Xu Ying still found it hard to believe. A top actor wouldn't cheat her, right?
Xu Ying stared at him suspiciously: "Is there something else hidden?"
Jiang Mo looked away: "Well, I can't say anything without evidence..."
Xu Ying slammed the table and said, "Hurry up and tell me. Otherwise, how can I do my best to help you?"
Jiang Mo hesitated for a moment and said, "This time, the actor who plays opposite me is called Zhang Chenyi, who was also the second male lead in that political drama a year and a half ago."
"I fell off my horse and was hospitalized for almost a month."
"When I returned to the set, a girl in charge of props told me that Zhang Chenyi had been to the horse farm early in the morning when I had the accident."
