Ok?

Upon hearing these four words, Mingbei's body trembled slightly.

He didn't expect that Zheng Jiaying would recommend this movie.

However, upon closer reflection, he is from Hong Kong Island, and the director of that film is also from Hong Kong Island.

Since they are all Hong Kong people who have gone north, there may be more information exchange between them.

Or rather, they are faster at obtaining information about their fellow villagers than others.

This is actually quite normal.

Ming Bei was somewhat familiar with the villain Zheng Jiaying mentioned; it was originally played by a middle-aged man.

He had seen the movie before, but it was a long time ago.

The most striking thing is that Wuqing is transformed into a woman, and she is played by Liu Yifei.

"If you were to play Wuqing, one of the main characters in 'The Four Great Constables,' you might have a chance," Zheng Jiaying continued with a laugh.

"Unfortunately, this time Director Chen directly changed the role of Wuqing to be played by a woman; you can't compete with that!"

"As for Cold-Blooded, Iron Hand, and Life Chaser, they all seem to be roughnecks, which doesn't quite fit your image..."

Because of his youth, Mingbei now looks somewhat like a pretty boy.

If I were to play a more rugged character, there would be a significant contrast, and I might not be able to portray it well.

This is due to limitations in age, temperament, and acting skills.

According to Mingbei's memory, the other three of the Four Great Constables were basically rough and uncouth.

It does not quite match his current image.

However, as Zheng Jiaying said,

On the contrary, if he were to play the villain An Shigeng, it might produce a good result.

If you're good-looking and have a high level of attractiveness, it shouldn't be too difficult for you to project a seductive image with the right makeup and styling.

"If you're interested, I'll give you a contact number. Why don't you try talking to them?"

Zheng Jiaying wasn't trying to force Ming Bei into the cast; he simply didn't have that ability.

He only noticed that a familiar assistant director was asking if there were any suitable mainland actors, and since Mingbei seemed to have a chance, he decided to give him a recommendation.

He has no say in what happens next.

"Thanks, bro. If it works out, I'll treat you to dinner!"

In this industry, many actors get their opportunities through internal recommendations.

This is what is known as connections; having more friends means having more options.

Having many friends makes finding a job much easier.

Given the lack of prior recognition, having this opportunity is actually quite good.

Mingbei doesn't have any other acting offers right now. According to the plan, he will go back to school after filming "Scarlet Heart".

If we get another chance, we might as well seize it.

Nowadays, it's not necessarily about playing the male lead or the second or third male lead.

If a suitable opportunity arises, you can give it a try.

Besides, Liu Yifei was in that movie.

Mingbei wasn't saying he was greedy and always looking for something better; he just wanted to meet more people and have more opportunities.

Liu Shishi is still his official girlfriend, with whom he has not broken up.

"It's nothing," Zheng Jiaying said, waving her hand dismissively.

"Anyway, I can't guarantee anything; the rest will depend on your own abilities!"

Liu Shishi, who was standing to the side, listened to their casual conversation and sighed inwardly.

I'm not very famous yet, so it's unlikely I can offer Mingbei any substantial help.

"I really hope this movie will become a huge hit, so that neither of us will lack work..."

The day's filming schedule came to a quick end. There weren't many night scenes in "Scarlet Heart," as most of them had already been filmed.

With the temperature dropping even lower these past few days and the cold wind howling at night, it's really hard to bear.

Therefore, after filming the daytime scenes, the crew usually chose to rest.

The progress is currently under control, and there should be no problem in completing filming ahead of schedule.

After finishing her scenes for the day, Liu Shishi lingered a bit and didn't eat much for dinner; female celebrities always need to maintain their figures.

After telling Mingbei, she went back to her hotel room with her assistant.

The reason it was a bit rushed was because my agent called in the afternoon and said there was something important to discuss.

However, she was filming at the time, and it was her last scene of the day, so we'll talk about it in detail when we get back to the hotel.

"Beep beep~"

After dialing the agent's number, the call was answered very quickly.

"Sister Wang, what's the rush?"

"It's a bit urgent," Agent Wang replied without mincing words.

"And it's great news!"

Great news?

Liu Shishi pondered for a moment, wondering what good things had happened recently. She was currently on set, so it couldn't be that she had taken on another role!

Or is there some other business activity involved?

Aren't these all normal good things?

"Yes, this afternoon, a brand contacted us wanting to offer you an endorsement contract!"

Sure enough, laughter came from the other end of the microphone.

"Moreover, the endorsement fee they offered this time is not low—three million for two years!"

Huh?

Liu Shishi was also surprised when she heard the number.

In the current market, top-tier actors typically command endorsement fees of three to four million yuan or more.

Actresses like her, who are considered to be at the lower end of the second tier, generally earn in the millions.

Even a small amount can amount to eight or nine hundred thousand a year.

Normally, as long as there are no problems with the brand they endorse, the artist will accept the endorsement.

After all, this money comes quickly and doesn't require much effort; taking a promotional photo and attending a business event is about all you need.

However, this time the brand endorsement is worth 1.5 million yuan a year, which is quite generous!

"What brand is it?" Liu Shishi asked curiously.

"They seem quite generous..."

"That's quite generous," Sister Wang said with a smile.

"We've also investigated. This company is a mobile phone company that was just established last year. You know that orange phone they released a couple of days ago, the one with so many vibrant colors? It caused quite a stir. That's the company that asked you to be their spokesperson!"

Upon hearing that it was a mobile phone brand, Liu Shishi's surprise increased even more.

Generally speaking, mobile phone brand endorsements are of a high standard; even if it's a newly established company, it still has a certain level of prestige.

So she was quite surprised that the new phone didn't contact any established A-list celebrities, but instead contacted her, which still puzzled her.

"In short, after our review, we feel there are no problems and we can definitely take on the project!"

"Alright then," Liu Shishi smiled gently.

"Just accept it. Just let me know in advance how you need to cooperate!"

She was already very familiar with these procedures.

"Okay, we'll see then. I'll let you know if anything happens!" Just as Sister Wang was about to hang up, she suddenly remembered something and said with a smile.

"However, it's quite a coincidence that the owner of this company shares the same surname as Ming, the same as Ming Bei in your film crew!"

"The surname Ming is quite rare!"
