Rebooting the top stars, starting with Extreme Challenge

Chapter 67's schedule is full.

For the next few hours, Jiang Chengyu kept receiving phone calls.

However, these phone calls are not worth going into detail about.

Because there was neither anyone who could make him abandon his principles, nor any film or television drama that could make him take notice.

So I won't mention it.

I put away my overheated phone and turned to look at the moon that had already appeared outside the window.

Touching his stomach, which had been growling from making the phone call, Jiang Chengyu didn't hesitate much before getting up and going downstairs to the dining area to eat.

After sitting down in the private room and ordering the food, Jiang Chengyu took out his phone and opened Green Bubble.

Gan Wei sent him a message at four o'clock in the afternoon.

The content was simple; she shared the meeting minutes with Jiang Chengyu.

There are only two points.

One is "My Sunshine", which is expected to start filming around January next year.

The second point is booking appointments.

Gan Wei said that idol dramas are usually filmed very quickly, but the project hasn't been officially approved yet.

Therefore, considering the situation conservatively, she decided that Guan Jiang Chengyu would need four months of availability.

Jiang Chengyu thought about it and felt there was no problem, so he replied with OK.

Then, before the food was served, he called Ma Zhongjun directly.

"Hey, Brother Ma?"

"Oh, you're calling me at this time, it must be good news."

"Haha, Brother Ma, you guessed right."

"I watched the two shows you sent me, they were both great."

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhongjun's tone noticeably rose.

"Yeah?"

"Then just accept them all!"

"I'm reserving the male lead roles in both of these dramas for you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengyu quickly spoke up to stop him.

"No way, they're all good dramas, but I might not have time to take them all on."

"I called to ask about the start dates for filming these two dramas."

"I'll pick them up whichever time is convenient."

The person on the other end of the phone didn't give a direct answer, but thought for a moment before replying.

"The start date for filming of 'Princess Agents' has not yet been set."

"However, based on the current preparation progress, filming will probably begin in June next year."

"Then 'The Mystic Nine' has been confirmed."

Filming will begin on November 20th this year.

After listening to Ma Zhongjun's words, Jiang Chengyu frowned slightly.

This is a bit tricky.

Seeing that Jiang Chengyu remained silent for a long time, Ma Zhongjun guessed that something might have changed and spoke up.

"Brother, just tell me what you're thinking."

"If there's a problem, we'll solve it."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengyu no longer hesitated and spoke directly.

"Brother Ma, then I'll tell you the truth."

"After we talked on the phone this afternoon, I received another film offer."

"That's a huge favor, I can't not repay it."

"Then her drama will start filming next May."

You should know me well.

"I never do the thing of filming multiple projects at once."

"So I can't take on 'Princess Agents'."

"Then the Le family's drama will start filming next January."

"If 'The Mystic Nine' starts filming at the end of November, there might be some scheduling conflicts, right?"

Ma Zhongjun replied very quickly.

"That's all?"

"Easy to solve."

"Why don't I just get 'The Mystic Nine' to start filming sooner?"

"If there's still a scheduling conflict, we can just film your scenes earlier in the morning."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengyu immediately replied.

"Then I'm all set."

"Okay, let's go with 'The Mystic Nine' then?"

"right."

"Do you still have an agent? Who should I have the producer contact?"

"I'll send you my assistant's phone number. You can have someone contact her later."

"Okay, by the way, do you know Zhang Yixing, who just came back from South Korea?"

"I know him, so what?"

"How's your relationship?"

"Good."

"That's good."

"What's wrong with One Star? Is something the matter?"

"Hey, it's nothing, it's just that those four who went back to China are super popular right now."

"Originally, the plan was to cast Zhang Yixing as the second male lead in 'The Mystic Nine'."

"But I already invited you, didn't I?"

"Just asking how your relationship is."

"If you two don't get along, I won't use him anymore. I haven't contacted him yet anyway."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengyu hurriedly said, "Yixing is an exceptionally good child."

"You made the right choice in selecting him."

"Although I can't guarantee how good Zhang Yixing's acting is."

"But he is extremely meticulous in his work."

"The upper limit is hard to predict, but the lower limit is definitely reliable."

Ma Zhongjun paused for two seconds: "You don't usually compliment people much, do you?"

"It seems this one-star card is indeed something special."

"That's perfect. Since you two are such good friends, I'll do you a favor as well."

"Why don't you talk to the second male lead from 'The Mystic Nine'?"

"Just consider it as if you found the role for him."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengyu's first reaction was to agree.

He subconsciously felt that Ma Zhongjun was right; it was a favor he was doing for someone else.

This is also an opportunity for Zhang Yixing.

After all, Er Yuehong was a landmark role in Zhang Yixing's early acting career.

But just as Jiang Chengyu was about to open his mouth, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Brother Ma, you're even ripping off your own brother?"

"How famous were those four when they returned to China?"

"Are their schedules so easy to negotiate?"

"You're treating me like an employee, and you don't even offer me a wage?"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone on the other end of the phone burst into laughter.

"Haha, bro, no wonder you succeeded."

"But you're overthinking it. I never told you to negotiate with Zhang Yixing."

"I've always believed that actors and roles complement each other."

"I want to use your hand to see what Zhang Yixing's attitude is towards 'The Mystic Nine'."

"If he's not interested, we won't bother sending him an invitation."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chengyu remained silent for a moment.

"Alright, I'll take this job."

"You really can't just not treat me to a nice meal next time we meet!"

As we were chatting, the door to the private room was pushed open, and the waiters began serving the dishes.

Having finished discussing serious matters, Jiang Chengyu had no interest in chatting with Ma Zhongjun.

He hung up the phone after a few quick words and then focused intently on cooking.

He only just realized that making phone calls was actually hard work.

He was exhausted after making all those phone calls that afternoon.

Meal time is forty minutes.

After a satisfying meal, Jiang Chengyu returned to his room and called Yang Mi.

I won't go into the specifics.

Only one point.

That means telling Yang Mi that his schedule is fine.

He accepted the role in the drama "Eternal Love".

After hanging up the phone and resting briefly on the sofa, Jiang Chengyu got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

After leaving the bathroom and lying on the bed, Jiang Chengyu began editing a short essay for Zhang Ruonan.

The content is nothing more than work.

Jiang Chengyu wasted an entire afternoon talking to Zhang Ruonan, which was a long period of work time spanned in years.

Zhang Ruonan had always worked as a personal assistant.

Jiang Chengyu had to give her careful instructions after suddenly changing her job to be an artist's assistant.

After Zhang Ruonan fully understood her next task.

Jiang Chengyu lay in bed and reviewed the scenes he would be filming the next day before slowly drifting off to sleep.
