Chapter 74: Restless Ambition [Thanks to Hiroshi for the tip]

There was a lot of excitement in the entertainment industry, but Chu Bai, the "initiator", seemed to have no ears to what was going on outside the window, and he seemed to be out of the way.

this night.

"What are you doing?" asked Yuan Jiayu playfully on the other end of the phone.

"Let's talk about it. Chu Bai joked with Yuan Jiayu with his mobile phone, and on the other hand, he took out his notebook that had accumulated dust for a long time, put it on the table, and took out a tissue to wipe it gently.

"You're here again. It's not poor for three days, right?" Yuan Jiayu rolled his speechless eyes and went straight over.

Chu Bai chuckled, ignored her stubble, and asked casually while wiping the computer, "Why did you remember to come to me so late?"

"Can't I look for you if it's okay? Why, our Chu Daxing is so popular now that he doesn't even recognize his old friends, hum!" Yuan Jiayu deliberately squeezed it.

Chu Bai smiled dumbly and continued to wipe the keyboard.

He was deliberately making fun of Yuan Jiayu, but he didn't expect this Nizi to react so much.

I wanted to comfort me, but suddenly my eyebrows raised, the action of wiping the keyboard stopped, and I temporarily changed my words when it came to my mouth, "Say, what do you want me to do you help you with so late?"

"Huh, how did you guess?" Yuan Jiayu cried out with surprise on his face, but as soon as he exited, he hurriedly covered his mouth in panic and almost threw the phone out of his hand.

Chu Bai was amused by her tone, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, and pretended to sneer, and spit out a word: "Say-"

The original arrogance on Yuan Jiayu's body was instantly extinguished, and he said weakly: "That's the case, someone asked me to let you play a cameo role." ”

Cameo roles?

Chu Bai asked quietly, "Who asked you to come to me?"

He mainly wanted to know what the relationship between this drama and Yuan Jiayu was......

If it is an unrelated play, he will naturally be careful, now belongs to his ascending period, but any wrong step may cause irreversible damage to his reputation.

Who knows, will this be another game......

Yuan Jiayu weakly explained: "When "Raiders Yanxi" was not broadcast before, I took another play, which was a movie. The director of that movie is also a friend of mine, and now he means that he wants to ask if you can come and make a cameo role. ”

Chu Bai knew it in his heart, but he didn't let it go: "Why don't you ask me to play the male lead? ”

Yuan Jiayu hurriedly explained: "My friend himself is the male protagonist of that play, not to mention that he can't afford your current value, the whole crew is tightening their waists now, I still give the friendship price for this play, how can I invite you." ”

Chu Bai nodded, many people really like to be both a director and a male lead these days, and asked curiously: "What kind of play?"

"Pancake Man......"

Chu Bai paused, and his voice was raised, "What did you say?"

Yuan Jiayu didn't know why, and was even a little scared, and said weakly: "Pancake man...... Chu Bai, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Chu Bai immediately denied it, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

After a deep groan, he spoke, "What's your friend's name?"

"Da Ben, formerly known as Dong Chengben, the best ladies and best men who were more popular on the Internet in the past two years are his handwriting......" Yuan Jiayu immediately told Chu Bai all the news he knew.

Chu Baimo rubbed his chin, and when he heard Yuan Jiayu say this, he confirmed many things, and forgot to wipe the keyboard for a while.

"Chu Bai, Chu Bai, are you listening?" Yuan Jiayu was a little nervous when he saw that no one replied for a long time.

"I'm listening. Chu Bai came back to his senses and asked a question he was most concerned about, "I just heard you say that the crew of Pancake Man ...... It seems like you're short of money right now?"

Yuan Jiayu immediately gushed out all the news he knew, "Yes, according to Daben's expectation, it was fifteen million, but in fact, even if he has borrowed more than 30 million yuan now, it is still not enough! Now the investor has already had an opinion, and he has a big quarrel with Daben in three days......

Daben is also so anxious that he loses a lot of hair every day. To be honest, I don't really want you to come, I feel like this drama may not be filmed one day. Now that I think about it, I regret it a little, I knew that I should have persuaded Daben not to be in such a hurry......"

Yuan Jiayu's tone was full of regret.

Originally, there was no problem with starring in Daben's play, it was all friends who didn't care about the cost, but there were constant disputes between the investors, which seriously affected the filming of the movie.

If this is delayed all the time, let alone Daben, even Yuan Jiayu will be delayed if he is now popular.

That's why she persuaded Chu Bai not to wade into this muddy water.

But Chu Baiming knew that this drama would be a big hit, could he still agree?

"How much funding is he missing?"

"He ......" Yuan Jiayu was suddenly stunned, as if he had just heard Chu Bai's question clearly, and asked nervously, "Why are you asking this?"

Chu Bai smiled when he heard this, "Just ask, what are you afraid of?"

Yuan Jiayu's face was full of suspicion, and then he hesitated for a moment and said, "It's probably still one or two million." ”

Chu Bai already knew in his heart, and said decisively: "Okay, I know about this, you call me." ”

"You, you don't want to fill this bottomless pit, do you?" Yuan Jiayu was shocked, and even more regretful, why did he open this mouth first?

I knew that it was the scene in front of me, so I didn't agree to Daben's request in a daze.

Thinking about it, Yuan Jiayu secretly hated himself for being reckless.

Chu Bai smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, the specific results will be discussed when I finish talking to him." ”

Yuan Jiayu was a little relieved, but he couldn't help but persuade him: "You must think twice." It's okay to make a cameo in a supporting role, but if you spend so much money...... By the way, do you have that much money?"

Chu Bai thought about it for more than a long time before he said blankly: "I seem to ...... I really haven't counted. ”

Yuan Jiayu: "......"

couldn't bear Chu Bai's inquiry, Yuan Jiayu finally told Chu Bai Dong Chengben's contact information, but the moment before hanging up the phone, she couldn't help but persuade: "You must not be stupid." ”

Chu Bai hung up the phone with a smile and looked at Dong Chengben's contact information, but he didn't call him in a hurry, but called Sister Yun first.

The first sentence was-

"Sister Yun, can I get 20 million now?"

Sister Yun was directly shocked for a long time without saying a word.

"Sister Yun?"

"You, what's wrong with you?" Sister Yun was a little nervous inexplicably, thinking that Chu Bai had done something stupid and wanted to use 20 million to smooth it out.

20 million, what a big deal this must be?!

Chu Bai couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't have any bank app on his mobile phone, he didn't know how much he had balance, and he didn't bother to go out to the bank to check, not to mention that the money had passed through Sister Yun's hands, she must be clear.

smiled and comforted: "I didn't have much, you just said, can I take out 20 million now?"

Sister Yun seemed to be a little more at ease, and was silent for a while before she said, "There are still a few companies that haven't paid the final payment, so you can only take out fifteen million at most." ”

Fifteen million?

Rao is Chu Bai was prepared, but he was still slightly startled by this number.

Sure enough, advertising is really TM to make money.

Be sure to pick up a few more when you come back!

"Okay, I see, let's get back to talk-" Chu Bai immediately hung up the phone.

"Hey-" Sister Yun looked at the phone that was hung up, a little overwhelmed, but since Chu Bai herself said that there was nothing wrong, it was probably because she was thinking too much.

But what the hell is this for, he asked?

This question has always lingered in Sister Yun's mind, and she can't get rid of it.

And this night, Chu Bai made a phone call to the young director named Dong Chengben, and the two had a "long talk" on the phone for three hours......
