Huayu Entertainment Starts with Xiang Yu, the Hegemon of Western Chu

Chapter 95 Mom, I'm the Lead Actress Now! [Please Subscribe]

"Tian Tian, ​​who's this Jiang Yang you've been paired up with lately?"

"What's your background?"

"I mean, his family background."

"His uncle is also an actor, named Yan Yikuan, who is only a dozen years older than him."

"Your uncle is an outsider. Do you even know what his father does in his own family?"

"How would I know?"

"You really don't know?"

"Why would I lie to you? Who's like you, always prying into other people's families!"

Jing Tian has received countless phone calls lately.

All the twists and turns are for the same thing: Who exactly is Jiang Yang?

At first, she was puzzled.

After asking around a lot, I finally learned the truth. When I first heard the rumors, I couldn't help but laugh and cry.

If that's the case, why would Jiang Yang still borrow money from me?

What she found most amusing was that this news was completely unsubstantiated, yet it was spread around with such seriousness that when she finally sought confirmation, the most important reason was:

Jiang Yang's demeanor is unlike that of an ordinary person.

Haha, you guys have pretty good taste!

Jing Tian's response was ambiguous, leaving it to the imagination of the audience.

She was very happy.

That way, Jiang Yang wouldn't be accused of being a kept man; instead, people would suspect that she was trying to climb the social ladder by marrying him.

Hehe, I don't mind.

People had already reached out to Jing Tian, ​​and Jiang Yang had naturally heard about it, finding it both funny and absurd.

So that's how the phrase "a flower of wealth and honor in the world" is used.

There's no point in explaining. It's just baseless speculation anyway. Jiang Yang can't very well issue a formal statement, or people will think he's trying to cover something up.

This kind of thing is actually very simple.

The more direct the person, the easier it is to understand. Whenever Jiang Yang himself was asked, he categorically denied it.

However, there are simply too many smart people out there.

"Smart people" have their own understanding and tend to overcomplicate things. Even if Jiang Yang doesn't acknowledge it, they still show a knowing expression, as if they understand.

What do you guys know?

Jiang Yang was speechless. Anyway, I didn't impersonate anyone, so I can't control what they think.

However, misunderstandings can have their advantages.

For example, he accidentally acquired shares in ByteDance, and anyone in the entertainment industry with even a little bit of inside information wouldn't want to go against him.

It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't!

Feng Shaofeng, who had already reconciled with him, even went to apologize to him, saying that his uncle had been blind to his greatness and asked him not to take it to heart.

Fine.

Jiang Yang decided to ignore the rumors and focus on his own work.

2013 was the peak of the RMB exchange rate.

Three million US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 18 million RMB, is only half of the profit sharing from "Si Teng" given by Jing Tian.

There are still about 20 million left, which is neither a lot nor a little.

He decided to make a play.

"What? You want me to play the female lead?"

Bai Mengyan was overjoyed when she heard the news.

Besides Shen Yindeng in "Si Teng", Jiang Yang also got her a role as Zhang Yan in "Brotherhood of Blades", the mute girl in the clinic who had an ambiguous relationship with Jin Yichuan.

She had very few scenes, mainly to save money.

Although her playing time was measured in seconds, Bai Mengyan was already filled with excitement.

Mom, I've been in a movie!

She never expected to have the opportunity to play the female lead so soon.

Shouldn't it be Dilraba's turn first?

Jiang Yang patted her on the shoulder and earnestly encouraged her.

"Xiao Bai, I've said it before, I have high hopes for you. Don't underestimate yourself, you have unlimited potential."

"This is a rare opportunity, so make the most of it."

"Take this book, 'The Best of Us,' back and read it carefully and ponder it deeply."

Bai Mengyan was almost moved to tears.

No joke, at this moment she was willing to take a bullet for Jiang Yang, and to die in his arms would be a romantic ending.

"Boss, I definitely won't let you down!"

Very good, morale is good.

Jiang Yang decided to film "The Best of Us" first because he didn't have enough money to produce a big-budget drama, so he could only make a mediocre campus drama.

Why Bai Mengyan?

The studio currently has three artists. Jiang Yang himself is about to film the movie "The Taking of Tiger Mountain," and Dilraba is also busy filming "Swords of Legends" with Yang Mi.

Don't underestimate her just because she's the second female lead; she's far more significant than the typical leading lady.

That leaves only Bai Mengyan.

Geng Geng, the female lead in "With You," is just an ordinary woman, a perfect match for the male lead.

Jiang Yang will not be playing the male lead.

His demeanor is out of place in campus dramas.

Furthermore, after "Legend of Lu Zhen" and "Si Teng," there's absolutely no need for her to go back and act in such low-budget dramas.

Among his friends, Wang Yanlin was clearly not the type, so Jiang Yang chose Jiang Jingfu, who had just terminated his contract with Sugarman.

Although Fu-zai loves weightlifting, he looks like a cute puppy.

Playing Yu Huai, an athletic academic genius, would be perfect for him.

Jiang Jingfu's lawsuit against Tangren is still in the second instance process. The termination of the contract is a foregone conclusion, and he may have to pay some compensation. Of course, he will not refuse if there is a chance.

The male and female leads have been cast; all that's missing is a director, who's just a supporting role.

This time, Jiang Yang didn't hire Li Muge. After filming "Si Teng," Li Muge is already a well-known director. Isn't a campus drama just an insult to people?

He discovered another new director.

Cat Tree, also known as Uncle Cat, whose real name is Yuan Shuang, is a future campus drama specialist and currently works as a photographer in Nanjing.

When Jiang Yang found him, he claimed to have seen his work and really liked his photography style.

Yuan Shuang was flattered and overwhelmed.

He himself had considered making a short film, but hadn't put it into practice yet, when Jiang Yang actually asked him to make a campus drama.

Film director!

Yuan Shuangcheng was filled with trepidation, but being a kind and honest person, she humbly stated that she had absolutely no experience and was afraid of messing up "With You".

Jiang Yang told him to relax and take the plunge.

For campus dramas, the most important thing is to create a sense of youth.

In this respect, "With You" is a benchmark in terms of plot, and as the director, he mainly controls the presentation of the shots, which is his expertise.

Yuan Shuang's advantage is her youth.

He was born in 91, the same age as Jiang Yang, meaning he had just graduated from university.

High school life was just a few years ago, and it's still vivid in my mind. But after being toughened up by society for a few years, it feels like a lifetime ago when I think back on it.

Since Jiang Yang trusted her, Yuan Shuang naturally accepted the role in "The Best of Us" without further hesitation.

He has to start with the script.

The original novel of "The Best of Us" is about 300,000 words long. Jiang Yang requested that it be adapted into a 24-episode script, and the other screenwriter he invited was the author, August Chang'an herself.

The latter just quit his job this year to write full-time and has no experience in film and television adaptations, so I'm very curious.

Jiang Yang specifically sought out Yuan Shuang, a veteran of campus dramas, because he wasn't only going to film "With You,"

He bought the "Zhenhua Trilogy" as well.

He allocated 10 million yuan to the budget for "The Best of Us", and used the remaining money to acquire the copyright.

The price of novel copyrights has risen in the past two years, and famous works are even more sought after. It is unlikely that you can find a bargain, so you should start preparing some projects in advance.

After a quick calculation, the money was gone in no time.

So little! So little!
