The original host had negotiated with the production team and was supposed to receive a character fee of two hundred thousand.
But in reality shows, the guest's appearance fee is paid after recording, while the character fee must be given in advance!
The worse the character and the less willing others are to take it on, the faster the finance departnt will make the paynt, fearing the other party might back out.
Yan Yueqing learned from her mory, "Isn't this a rule that's beco an industry standard? Why haven't I received this money in my account yet, from the first to the fourth episode? Could soone be sabotaging it?"
Li Manman's face froze slightly, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Yan Yueqing gave her a mocking glance.
Li Manman was an artist signed by Zhongxing a few years ago, related to Director Yang, and beca a key person to promote upon joining the company. Unfortunately, despite heavy investnt, she never beca popular, so this year her agent specifically arranged for her to join this show, even arranging for Yan Yueqing to play a supporting role, all to promote her!
However, for so unknown reason, Li Manman, who had so say in the company, demanded the finance departnt withhold the character fee.
The matter was done extrely covertly!
But judging by Yan Yueqing's expression, she clearly knew it all!
Li Manman huffed, "Without any concrete evidence, don't spout nonsense!"
Seeing she wouldn't admit it, Yan Yueqing spread her hands, "Well, I haven't signed a contract for the character fee with the production team. Without the money, why should you care what I do on the show?"
"You!" Li Manman gritted her teeth, "This is shaless! Let's see which production team will dare to hire you after this!"
"The production team won't care about that much," Yan Yueqing said with a lifted corner of her lips, cutting to the core, "What they want is for the show to be a hit, for the ratings to be high."
This year, there are many child-thed variety shows on the market, competition is extrely fierce. Zhongxing launched "National Parent" at this ti, aiming to use an established show to stabilize the market, promoting newcors was just a byproduct.
If one has to say, between promoting newcors and making the show a hit, it would definitely be the forr making way for the latter!
This is also why, in the beginning, the show promoted Li Manman, but in the end it was Qin Youran who beca famous.
There's no helping it, a dark horse appeared!
First in the ratings!
Li Manman's brows sank, and she said coldly, "So you an, you also want a share of the pie?"
"I've got a son to support, I need money!" Yan Yueqing declared boldly, "It was agreed, two hundred thousand for playing a supporting role, but I've fild up to the fourth episode and still haven't seen the money, don't I have to carve out a path for myself?"
"Quit your blathering!" Li Manman snarled viciously, "I'll have finance transfer the money to you tonight, you—"
"No need!" Yan Yueqing quickly raised her hand to stop her, "Compared to that two hundred thousand, I think becoming famous makes more money! Thanks for your interference."
"Yan, Yueqing!" Li Manman ground her molars, fire almost bursting from her eyes.
Yan Yueqing smiled amiably, "Don't shout so loud, what if passersby overhear and your image gets tarnished? Keep smiling, okay?" She paused before adding with infuriating nonchalance, "Also, thanks for reminding , I don't think I've ever prepared gifts for the staff. I'll go buy so now!"
Having said that, avoiding Li Manman's near-green face, she called out, "Tang Tang, have you made your choice? Let's go."
Tang Tang responded, "Okay!"
After packing up the things, Tang Tang saw Yueqing's barely suppressed smile and asked with curiosity, "Sister Yueqing, what's making you so happy?"
How could she not be overjoyed?!
Li Manman's words had reminded her!
She had finally found the perfect opportunity to spend money!
Yueqing said mysteriously, "Tang Tang, let's go buy so gifts for the aunts and uncles working here, shall we?"
"Okay!"
With the little one's agreent, Yueqing pulled her into the Luxury District on the sixth floor.
