Chapter 215
"I want to make a web drama and I'm short of an actor. Are you interested?" Cheng Yue said very directly.
Lu Jing was stunned, with surprise in his eyes, "Sorry, I can't act. I have no experience in this area."
Cheng Yue thought he would be very happy, but she didn't expect his reaction to be so dull.
"Did you know that you can make more money as an actor than as a model? In this company, there may be several out of ten models who want to enter the entertainment industry. Even if you become a third- or fourth-tier actor, you can make more money in a year. After working as a model for several years, if you are lucky and become famous instantly, it is very easy to earn tens of millions a year."
"But it's not easy to get ahead." Lu Jing said, "Besides, I don't know anything about acting..."
"I can teach you, and the reason why I chose you is because I think your image is very suitable for the male protagonist in my script."
"You want me to be the leading actor?" Lu Jing was stunned, with shock in her eyes.
"Yes, in fact, when many actors entered the entertainment industry, they did not have formal academic backgrounds, and they gradually honed their skills in the later years." Cheng Yue said, "It is difficult to get ahead in the entertainment industry, but it is not that easy to get ahead in the modeling industry. But because this is a low-budget film and you are a newcomer, I can only give you 200,000 yuan. It can be filmed in three months at most. The money is less, but in the later period you become popular and you get various endorsements. It won’t be a problem for you to earn tens of millions.”
Two hundred thousand for three months.
Lu Jing's heart was beating fast. He had just joined the modeling agency and his monthly salary was less than 8,000 yuan.
"I'll take the shot."
Lu Jing blushed. He needed money more than anyone else.
The actor was finalized.
Cheng Yue called Cheng Xi in the afternoon.
"Sister, you are so awesome. In just one night, I decided on the actor." Cheng Xi was greatly surprised. She thought her sister would have to think about it for several days.
"I went to the company today to look for my mother, and I didn't expect to meet a suitable one here. I think his image fits the character of the male protagonist in the book, and he's pretty good-looking, with a good figure. The most important thing is his money. few."
"Those who can get into a modeling agency must have a good figure. Two hundred thousand yuan is quite cheap. I heard that any actor in the entertainment industry who is a third- or fourth-tier actor starts with a million yuan to start filming." Cheng Xi sighed, "What about the actress? Are you also going to pick new people?”
"That won't work. The actress is also a newcomer. No one will be interested in this drama by then. I also have a few friends in the entertainment industry. I will choose the actress."
"Then the screenwriter..."
"I've already started to look for them. When I was an intern a few years ago, I met a few good screenwriters, but unfortunately they were not well-known in the industry. I added them on WeChat and have always had a good relationship. As soon as I opened my mouth today, they agreed."
"Sister, I knew you could do it. Fortunately, I have a sister like you." Cheng Xi praised with a smile.
Cheng Yue felt sweet after hearing this, "I'm lucky to have a sister like you. This is the first time I've been the chief director myself."
"It's okay. Once you become famous, you will be a popular director in the film and television industry."
The two complimented each other for a while. After hanging up the phone, Cheng Xi felt excited.
She took out her notebook and started writing a plan.
It's not easy to make a web drama, it requires a costume and props team, a photography team, an art team...
"Cheng Xi, let me catch you."
The chair opposite was suddenly pulled away. Pei Feiyue smashed her brand-name bag on the table, then sat down domineeringly, with hostility surging in her big bright eyes.
Cheng Xi put down the pen and asked, "What are you doing?"
