Early the next morning, Zhang Chen, the boss of Happy Twisted Dough, came to Jiang Xia's studio.
When he saw Jiang Xia, Zhang Chen took the initiative to shake his hand." Jiang Xia, it's very wise of you to choose to cooperate with Happy Twisted Maws!"”
Zhang Chen was extremely happy. He had previously looked for top celebrities like Deng Chao, Chen Chichi, and Huang Xiaoming for this drama, but none of them were willing to act as the richest man in Xihong City.
It was all because of Happy Twisted Mahua. Other than the drama market, not many people knew about it. No one was optimistic about them entering the film industry.
The other B-list and C-list actors were asking for an exorbitant sum.
One had to know that the budget for 'The Richest Man in Xihong City' was only 30 million. They couldn't afford a salary of more than 10 million.
Jiang Xia was the first celebrity who was willing to work with them and even offered to negotiate their pay.
"Jiang Xia, the total investment for our movie is 30 million yuan. We can give you about 10 million yuan as remuneration. What do you think?”Zhang Chen looked at Jiang Xia nervously.
After all, ordinary B-list and C-list celebrities would dare to ask for tens of millions of yuan in salary. Jiang Xia was a popular celebrity recently.
"Sure." Jiang Xia added," How about this? I don't want this 10 million. Just treat it as my investment. I'll get 20% of the box office earnings. How about that?"”
"Of course! That's great!"
Zhang Chen was overjoyed. This way, he would be able to invest an additional 10 million in the production of the movie. The quality of the movie would be further guaranteed.
He even felt that he had gained an advantage.
" The Richest Man in Xihong City " would at most have 100 million yuan at the box office. After deducting some other expenses, Jiang Xia would only get a few million yuan at most.
"Jiang Xia, let's sign the contract quickly.”
Zhang Chen was afraid that Jiang Xia would go back on his word, so he quickly signed the contract with Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia's expression was calm. She wondered if Zhang Chen would strangle her to death if he knew that the box office earnings of " The Richest Man in Xihong City " had reached billions.
……
Two days later, in Fujian.
As " The Richest Man in Xihong City " was a modern drama, the filming location was chosen to be in Xiamen.
At the opening ceremony, Jiang Xia, who was the lead actor, occupied the center position as expected. However, most of the actors around him were happy drama actors. In the eyes of the public, they were not well-known.
Only Zhang Chenguang, who played the role of the butler, and Xu Dongdong, who played the role of Sha Sha, were slightly more famous.
Jiang Xia posted the photo of the opening ceremony on Weibo with a paragraph.
"#Actor Jiang Xia: 'The Richest Man in Xihong City' has just started filming. I'm going to get a billion-dollar haircut. Anyone who knows the ropes can give me some advice.# Picture #"
During this period of time, Jiang Xia was in the middle of a fishing boat storm. Fans were following his Weibo every day. When they saw his post, they immediately occupied the comment section.
"Brother Xia, how come I don't know anyone in the picture except you?”
"F * ck, Brother Xia, you really didn't go to film a lousy movie, did you? Surrounded by a group of stinky fish and rotten prawns."
"I saw sister-in-law. F * ck, this pair of things is too big!”
"Damn it, it's obvious that it's a vulgar and lousy movie. It even has a billion-dollar hairstyle. Jiang Xia, I'm so disappointed in you!"
"Brother Xia, don't accept lousy movies. If you're short of money, we'll crowdfund it for you!”
"That's right, Brother Xia, come back. Don't accept lousy movies.”
“……”
Jiang Xia was a little touched when he saw the comments from his fans. In order to prevent him from shooting a bad film, they had to crowdfund him.
This made Jiang Xia determined that he had to shoot well and not disappoint his fans. He had to surprise them.
The next morning at 8 am, Jiang Xia arrived at the set on time to prepare for the first scene.
The other actors also came to the scene. They lowered their heads and chatted while putting on their makeup.
"Can Jiang Xia act in a comedy?"
"I also have a question. Why didn't the main character choose one of our own? The original cast and crew of the play have such a tacit understanding.”
"I'm not the Drug God. His acting skills should be fine.”
"But 'The Richest Man in Xihong City' is a comedy, so the requirements for the actors are different.”
"That's right. Who asked them to have traffic? We can only bite the bullet.”
“……”
The first scene was set on a football field. It was about Wang Duoyu getting a billion yuan inheritance and having a showdown with his former coach and teammates.
After the preparations were complete and all the actors were in place, Director Yan Fei picked up the microphone.
"The richest man in Xihong City, scene one, scene one, Action!!”
As soon as Yan Fei finished speaking, Jiang Xia's Wang Duoyu and Zhuang Qiang walked arrogantly towards the Daxiang soccer team members who were training.
A few days ago, the two of them had just been fired by the Daxiang team.
As Wang Duoyu walked, he talked to Zhuang Qiang, who was beside him, about demolishing the stadium." If that doesn't work, persuade the people around to demolish the houses. Tear down the stands on both sides. The iron fence outside should be demolished. When that happens, the turf…"
Wang Duoyu lowered his head and was stunned. He realized that there was no turf at all. He immediately turned to Zhuang Qiang and instructed," Is this beach soccer? Hurry up and pull the turf over. It must meet the standards of the European Union.”
The two of them sang and shouted, causing the coach Ma Daxiang and the players behind them to be stunned.
Ma Daxiang immediately laughed and scolded,"Are the two of you planning a terrorist attack?" From what I hear, he's going to blow up my stadium.”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Hahaha…
Wang Duoyu was stunned. Then, he said helplessly," I originally planned to get along with you as an ordinary person. But in exchange, I've become estranged."”
"Stop pretending! I'm a billionaire, I'll lay my cards on the table!”
