Huayu: This celebrity doesn't follow the rules.

Chapter 70 The Little Girl Who Believes in Aliens
Jiang Ye closed the folder, his smile suddenly vanished, and his tone became unusually serious.

"Sister Tian, ​​you are my senior, and there are some things I want to tell you frankly."

Jing Tian was slightly taken aback and looked up at him.

“I have high hopes for this drama, and I think you are very suitable for the role of Si Teng.” Jiang Ye looked directly into her eyes. “The drama ‘Princess Promotion’ has garnered 28 billion views, proving that I understand the market and the audience.”

"But as you know, I'm a new director with limited funds. Although the platforms are willing to invest, they won't give me much!"

"Unless I relinquish control and allow them to fill in the gaps, change the script, or even replace the director."

Jing Tian frowned slightly, clearly understanding what he meant.

“But I don’t want to compromise.” Jiang Ye’s voice was soft but firm. “What I want to film is the real ‘Sito’, not a mass-produced product that has been completely altered by capital.”

He took a deep breath and looked intently at her.

"So, Sweetie, if you really like this character... I hope you can stand by my side."

“Bring your own investment and we’ll lead this project together.”

"4000 million, with a 30% profit-sharing right."

"I can assure you that Sito will be your masterpiece, not just another play."

"If you're not comfortable with that, I can sign a performance-based agreement with you!"

Everything Jiang Ye did before was just a prelude, solely to quickly dispel the estrangement between the two.

It kept increasing its weight in Jing Tian's heart, all for the sake of this final sincere conversation.

With this level of cooperation, the other party can find out everything about you in no time.

Don't even think about trying to fool me!

This project is completely different in nature from what Sister Meng started.

Even if Jing Tian can be fooled, the company behind her is not so easily fooled.

Besides, how could a girl as pampered as Jing Tian be a naive and innocent fool?
Jiang Ye can only do this for now: to clearly explain his project, present its strengths and weaknesses, and make the other party interested.

If Da Tian Tian likes this project, she will naturally invest in it.

She's quite adept at getting roles by bringing her own financial backing!

Jing Tian didn't agree immediately, saying she needed to go back and discuss it further, even though she was already very tempted.

The main reason is that the female lead in this drama is really outstanding. The female lead's personality and appearance are very attractive to her, and the junior is also very sincere.

I even took her to eat so many delicious things!
Not bad, it was a pretty satisfying date—no, a collaboration!

She decided to go back and discuss it with Uncle Lu!
……

Huizhou, Ao Province, a high-end residential community

At seven o'clock in the evening, the motion-activated lights in the corridor turned on and off with the sound of footsteps. When Zhou Qisi pushed open the door, a pungent, spicy aroma that made one's nose itch went straight into the lungs. It was the aroma of dried chili peppers mixed with the charred smell of chicken.

"Dad, did you make spicy chicken today?"

She was taking off her high heels and smacking her lips, when the sound of stir-frying came from the kitchen.

Zhou's father was standing in front of the stove, his spatula flipping a pile of bright red dried chilies and chicken pieces flying around. His apron was splattered with oil. He turned around and smiled, "Your mother said she was craving this crunchy stuff. These are some bird's eye chilies that your grandmother sent from the mountain city. Are they strong enough?"

The mother lay on the sofa watching TV, waving her hand lazily: "You're back? Wash your hands and eat."

Zhou Qisi looked around: "Where's my sister?"

The mother chuckled and pointed to the room: "Your sister is studying aliens."

"They said they were looking at the stars through the telescope and it seemed like they spotted a flashing unidentified flying object. They called out to it for a long time but there was no response."

Zhou Qisi pushed open his sister's bedroom door and was immediately greeted by a sea of ​​pink. Pink sheets, pink curtains, even the desk lamp had a fluffy pink lampshade.

The walls are covered with starry sky wallpaper, and a few fluorescent stars glow faintly in the twilight. Large and small plush toys are piled up beside the bed, and a giant Pikachu is tilting its head, as if guarding something.

Her younger sister was sitting cross-legged on the bay window.

Her long, black hair was loose, hanging down her shoulders, the ends swaying gently as she lowered her head, flowing like silk bathed in moonlight.

She has a small face with a neat yet soft jawline, well-shaped eyes with a slight upward curve at the corners, a delicate and upturned nose, and natural pink lips. Although she looks like a young girl, she exudes a refined and bright energy, which is made even more lively by the oversized white sweatshirt.

She was holding a book titled "Guide to Extraterrestrial Life Exploration" in her hands, muttering to herself.

"If aliens really came, would they like to drink milk tea?"

"Hmm... I guess I'd prefer drinking liquid nitrogen?"

"No, no, maybe they don't need to eat at all..."

Zhou Qisi leaned against the doorframe and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Zhou Ye, have you come up with any results yet?"

Zhou Ye suddenly looked up, her delicate face tense, her almond-shaped eyes wide: "Sister! You scared me!"

"Stop researching it, there are no aliens at all."

Zhou Qisi walked over and casually patted her head.

Zhou Ye immediately bristled and slapped her hand away: "How do you know it doesn't exist? The universe is so big! Scientists have said that the probability of extraterrestrial life existing is 99.99%!"

"The remaining 0.01% is your IQ," Zhou Qisi said with a wicked grin.

"Mom! My sister is bullying me again!"

Zhou Ye jumped off the bay window in a huff, the drawstring on her hoodie swaying with her movements.

Mother's voice drifted in from outside the door: "Stop making noise, come out and eat!"

At the dinner table, Mr. Zhou picked up a piece of chicken for his eldest daughter and casually asked, "Sisi, how's the job search going lately?"

Zhou Qisi sighed: "I've invested in several clothing companies, but haven't heard back yet."

"But I posted my information on Zhaopin.com yesterday, I don't know..."

Just then, Zhou Qisi's phone rang.

She glanced at it and raised an eyebrow: "Huh? A number from Beijing?"

After hanging up the phone, her expression was a little strange: "Mom, a headhunting company said that a film and television company in Yanjing is recruiting costume designers, and they asked if I wanted to give it a try..."

Zhou Ye immediately leaned closer, her eyes sparkling: "A film and television company? Can we meet celebrities?"

Zhou Qisi poked her forehead: "What are you thinking! Whether she wants me or not is still up in the air, you idiot, just eat your food!"

Zhou Ye pouted, then lowered her head to eat her rice, muttering under her breath, "Hmph, all they know is how to bully me..."

After quickly shoveling down a few mouthfuls of rice, she slammed her chopsticks down on the edge of the bowl, the porcelain spoon making a crisp clinking sound as it hit the rim.

She lowered her eyelashes and suddenly drew out her tone in a theatrical style.

"As expected of the eldest daughter~ The bond between father and daughter, sister and sister, is truly deep~"

She pointed her slender, pale fingers at the spicy chicken on the table. "I was just serving my sister some food; everyone's so envious!"

Zhou's father's chopsticks froze in mid-air: "."

"Didn't your sister just get back?" Zhou's father quickly scooped a spoonful of steamed egg for Zhou Ye. "She worked really hard out there."
