However, after opening the door, Jiang Xia was stunned on the spot.
"Sister…Sister Tianzhen, why are you here?”
The person standing at the door was not Bai Bing, but Chen Tianzhen.
Chen Tianzhen's eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Xia." Xiao Xia, your benefactor is here!" Look who I brought for you!"
After saying that, Chen Tianzhen's fat body moved away, and a thin and tall man appeared.
"Director…Director Zhang!"
Jiang Xia was shocked. The person behind Chen Tianzhen was actually the famous director, Old Moe.
Jiang Xia quickly invited Zhang Jihua and Chen Tianzhen into the house.
The three of them sat on the sofa. Zhang Jihua sized up Jiang Xia without blinking, like a rich woman who had a hard time choosing a public relations officer.
Jiang Xia felt very uncomfortable.
"Director Zhang, what do you think of Jiang Xia?" Chen Tianzhen asked with a smile. Do you agree with your request?"
Old Moe nodded.
"Not bad. Handsome and fair. The fans should like it very much. It should be able to guarantee the box office.”
Chen Tianzhen added with a smile," Moreover, Jiang Xia has been very popular recently. He has been on Weibo's hot search list several times. His popularity is definitely not lower than any young hunks."”
" Alright!" Old Moe's eyes lit up when he heard that." You'll be the one! You'll be playing Peng Yong in my new movie,'The Great Wall'!"”
The Great Wall?
Jiang Xia was stunned. He knew about the Great Wall back then. In his previous life, it was a super lousy movie!
Seeing that Jiang Xia was not excited at all and was even hesitant, Old Moe was a little dissatisfied. That actor was not proud of working with him?
Old Moe tapped his finger on the table and said meaningfully,"What? You don't want to act in 'The Great Wall'?" The estimated investment for this movie was 200 million USD! It'll be the lead role of international movie star Matt Damon. There'll also be Liu Dehua, Zhang Hanyu, Peng Yuyan, Lin Erxin, Deng Kai, Lu Han, Wu Yifan, and Cai Xukun. They begged me to give them a small role, but I didn't. I saw that you had some acting skills and good looks, so I found you.”
"I'm willing! Of course I'm willing! Director Zhang, you've found the right person. Jiang Xia won't let you down.”Chen Tian agreed excitedly on behalf of Jiang Xia.
With such a luxurious lineup, Jiang Xia's appearance in it would be greatly exposed, and his value would also rise.
If he participated in such a huge production with his first movie and collaborated with a group of big name movie stars, Jiang Xia's journey to the big screen would be a lot better than the others.
This was undoubtedly a great opportunity!
Old Moe nodded. Chen Tianzhen's reaction was within his expectations." By the way, Matt Damon's pay for this drama is 20 million US dollars, and Liu Dehua's is 40 million RMB. You know that I'm a big production when I film. The actors 'pay can't be too high, so..."
"The pay is not important." Chen Tianzhen said straightforwardly," It's Jiang Xia's fortune to be able to film and learn under Director Zhang. The remuneration is enough."”
Old Moe was very satisfied with Chen Tianzhen's answer, but he still waved his hand and smiled. Am I someone who lacks money? Of course, according to the market price. How about four million?”
Puchi!
Jiang Xia spat out the tea he had just drunk.
Four million? Was this the market price?
Jiang Xia's pay for acting in " Chang 'an Twelve Hours " was close to ten million. Although the pay for acting in the movie was lower, it could not be less than half.
Moreover, he would not be willing to act in a lousy movie like The Great Wall no matter how much money he was offered. This was a movie that would ruin the reputation of the actors. He would not act in it even if he was offered 10 million yuan!
"Director Zhang, I'm sorry, but I don't want to act in 'The Great Wall'.”Jiang Xia said straightforwardly.
As soon as Jiang Xia said this, the old man's smile froze on his face.
" Jiang Xia!" Chen Tian's face changed." What nonsense are you talking about?" he said angrily. Director Zhang letting you act in 'The Great Wall' is your fortune!”
Old Moe was a well-known director in the industry. He had supported countless celebrities and had a huge influence in the industry. If Jiang Xia offended him, it would be difficult for her to move forward in the film and television industry in the future.
"Sister Tianzhen, the Great Wall of China has a foreigner as the lead actor. I'm very skeptical about the quality of such a film.”Jiang Xia stated his reason for refusing.
These words were especially harsh to the ears of Old Moe.
Wasn't this questioning his level? He was hinting that the film he was going to film, The Great Wall, would definitely be a bad one.
This was intolerable!
Old Moe stood up with an ugly expression." Chen Tianzhen, the artiste under you is really a big shot. My temple is small. I can't accommodate such a big shot!"”
With that, Old Moe opened the door and left without looking back.
Chen Tianzhen was also infuriated by Jiang Xia. It was one thing for Jiang Xia to offend Old Moe, but he was also hated by Old Moe.
"Jiang Xia, why are you so ungrateful? How dare you offend Director Zhang! 'The Great Wall' has a huge investment and many stars. If you accept 'The Great Wall,' it will be a good springboard for you to enter the big screen!”Chen Tianzhen said resentfully.
This was also the reason why the young hunks were so eager to watch The Great Wall.
"Sister Naive, I'm sorry, but I really don't want to cheat the fans of their money. This drama is obviously a bad movie, and the fans 'money doesn't come easily.”Jiang Xia said seriously,
Chen Tianzhen looked at Jiang Xia and sighed helplessly." With your personality, you'll be at a disadvantage in the entertainment industry."”
In the entertainment industry, that young hunk was always trying to earn money from his fans. Bad movies came one after another, and he even had to pay to see photos on Weibo.
In order to make money, they had already gone crazy.
Jiang Xia had a lot of opportunities to earn money, but he refused.
……
At the same time, Old Moe returned home. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. In the end, he picked up his phone and posted a Weibo post.
"#World-Famous Director: A certain young hunk in the entertainment industry. If I don't directly call you by your name here, you'll complain that my pay is low and that hundreds of screenwriters spent three years to polish 'The Great Wall'. Do you really think that you're a superstar just because you've filmed a few TV series? Stinky! I hope you know your place!"
