"Mr. Gu, your film remuneration has been deposited into your studio account. I've already paid the taxes on your behalf, please confirm if there is any issue," Zhang nglong said with a casual air, as though it wasn't a hundred million but rely a single yuan.
"Mr. Zhang, is there a mistake?" It wasn't that Gu Tianluo underestimated himself, but the remuneration was frighteningly high. Having been in the acting business for so long, he had at most only received a few million in remuneration.
For soone who put all his inco into education and charitable causes, this amount of money was undoubtedly astronomical.
Moreover, up to this point, it was doubtful that any actor in Huaxia had ever received remuneration of this magnitude, right?
The most crucial thing was, they were just in the actor selection phase now. Normally, even if a film remuneration was to be paid, only a part of the signing fee would be given first, with the remaining remuneration and dividends paid after the final box office takings.
Was Zhang nglong not afraid of a box office flop? Although with such a cast, such an incident was virtually impossible, hadn't Zhang nglong gone a bit too far in self-indulgence?
"Actually, the remuneration I gave Mr. Gu is 50 million," Zhang nglong said, "I know Mr. Gu is passionate about education and charity. The extra 50 million is just a small gesture of my support."
Gu Tianluo was startled, then a bright smile appeared, "Then, I hope we have a pleasant collaboration and can create a perfect piece of work!"
"It's also our honor," Zhang nglong exchanged a look with Wang Ling. With such a true actor joining, 'Three-Body' would definitely achieve the effect they desired.
It must be said, Zhang nglong's eye for selecting actors was indeed sharp. The main characters, apart from one that deviated slightly from his initial expectations, all his recomnded choices were unanimously approved by the judges!
And that one actor also found their own shadow in another role, resulting in a happy outco for everyone.
As for those so-called traffic stars, whether it was Zhu Xiao or Roberts, they could only shake their heads in dismay in the end. Particularly Prince Wang Zihan, who even diligently prepared an outfit for the role of the Trisolaran, ended up not getting even a minor role as a passerby.
As for the rest, those were so less significant roles. Zhang nglong trusted the directors' judgent, they would certainly choose the most suitable candidates.
With all the actors in place, Zhang nglong and Wang Ling had a al with them. These veteran actors found kinship in each other, seemingly having endless topics to discuss. Seeing such a scene made Zhang nglong reflectively sigh; the dinner ended with so still not wanting it to be over.
Having had so drinks, his head felt sowhat drowsy, Zhang nglong didn't go ho. Anyways, the Wanda Hotel was owned by Wang Ling's family; he had booked it for these few days, so he simply went straight to his presidential suite.
Along the way, Zhang nglong kept feeling so gaze on him, but when he turned around, he saw nothing.
"Drinking causes trouble!" Zhang nglong slapped his head, it had been a long ti since he drank this much with his roommates.
After closing the door, Zhang nglong headed straight to the bathroom, peeling off his clothes that reeked of alcohol.
"Thump thump thump!" He had barely taken a step when a gentle knock on the front door echoed.
"Who is it?" Zhang nglong staggered over to the door, "It can't be Wang Ling, this blockhead disturbing
in the middle of the night!"
"Click!" Without much thought, Zhang nglong opened the door directly.
In an instant, a whiff of fragrance entered his nostrils, and a soft body crashed right into Zhang nglong's arms.
"Damn! I've encountered a female hooligan!" That was Zhang nglong's first thought.
"Bang!" The woman who barged in imdiately closed the door, and with the montum, she pushed Zhang nglong onto the sofa not far away.
A pair of hands swiftly began to wander over Zhang nglong's body, and being a man, faced with such a situation, his body temperature started to soar rapidly.
If this were an ordinary person, faced with such a situation, they would probably let the liquor heat their brain and the scene that follows would surely be indescribable.
But not Zhang nglong. He had been drinking, yet he remained rational and sober and imdiately pushed the woman aside.
"Why does this person look so familiar?" It was only now that Zhang nglong got a clear look at the woman—a quintessential lon-seed face, curvy figure, fair skin, and that light makeup sohow gave her the feeling of the girl next door.
"Holy shit, isn't that Half Moon Forest?" Zhang nglong rembered the face from his vague mories.
Half Moon Forest was originally just a minor internet celebrity who gained fa by becoming the other woman. At the ti, he rembered saying, leaving everything else aside, Half Moon Forest's looks and figure indeed made it easy for one to commit a cri.
"Don't touch !" Zhang nglong quickly guarded his chest. Although he had seen countless films, he was in reality still thoroughly a boy, "What exactly are you trying to do?"
Although she was pushed away by Zhang nglong, Half Moon Forest didn't seem flustered. She smoothed her hair and subtly tugged at her dress hem, revealing a pair of fair, slender legs, and then sat next to Zhang nglong.
"Director Zhang, I heard that the actress for the second female lead in 'Three-Body' hasn't been decided yet. There were just too many people auditioning today, so I had to volunteer to audition tonight. Would you like to have a taste?" Half Moon Forest's voice was filled with seduction.
"You're so saucy!" Zhang nglong quickly stepped back.
"Hehe!" Half Moon Forest's eyes remained seductively silky. She was full of confidence in her body; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to snatch a boyfriend from another internet celebrity with tens of millions of fans, "Isn't this very exciting? As long as Director Zhang is willing to let
try the role, I'm willing to do anything!"
"Seems like it's not all Liu Yang's fault for cheating!" Zhang nglong muttered to himself, most people really couldn't withstand it.
"Wang Ling was right, damn, do all internet celebrities nowadays have no bottom line?"
"Alright, you can go now, I can pretend this never happened." Zhang nglong put his coat back on.
A flash of surprise crossed Half Moon Forest's eyes. She had served herself up on a platter, yet Zhang nglong remained unmoved? Weren't these rich second-generation youngsters all into this kind of play?
"Knock knock knock!" Just then, there was another knock at the door.
"Who's there!" Zhang nglong hadn't done anything, so he had no need to act like a thief caught in the act; he was more than eager for soone to take this Half Moon Forest away.
But when he opened the door, he froze. Outside stood another internet celebrity, wearing even less than Half Moon Forest!
"Director Zhang, feeling lonely? Want
to co in and have a drink with you?" The internet celebrity said, her eyes already shooting sparks at Zhang nglong.
"Sorry, it seems soone beat you to it," Zhang nglong quirked his mouth and stepped aside, as the two female internet celebrities stood eye to eye.
"Forest, didn't you say you were going to have a midnight snack?"
"I... And you, weren't you going to find a spot to rehearse your lines for tomorrow's audition?"
"Interesting, this is good to watch!" Zhang nglong sat down on the couch, picked up a banana, and started watching with interest. No wonder he felt like he was being watched on his way back; turns out soone had trailed him!
"Bang!" Just when it seed there would be an epic catfight, the two won exchanged a glance, as if coming to so agreent, and unexpectedly shut the door together.
"Director Zhang, want to experience a threeso?"
"Damn it!" The banana Zhang nglong was nibbling nearly fell out of his mouth, "Are the people in this circle really this fierce?"
