The Dazzling Princess in Modern Times
Chapter 310: Moon As Frost
In the chaotic food stall, two middle-aged men were sitting together and drinking. One of them was Li Heng, who had sent the script to Xia Wanyuan. Sitting beside him was the original author of “Moon As Frost”, Yang Jiu.
“The Old, forgive me. Maybe I shouldn't have let you come to Beijing to make a living back then.” Li Heng drank a mouthful of wine and saw a hazy light in front of him. He felt suffocated.
“If it wasn't for you back then, I would have starved to death. I never blamed you. For years, I didn't know what I was doing. In the end, there was nowhere for me to settle in this prosperous capital city.”
In the early years, Yang Jiu was also a very popular online novel writer. He had earned a lot of money and bought a house in Beijing. It can be said that he has built his roots in Beijing.
Over the years, IP adaptations have been very popular. Yang Jiu was a stubborn person. He had seen too many examples of adaptations that had been destroyed. He did not want his blood and sweat to be ruined by others and had turned down many opportunities.
A few months ago, when they discussed cooperation, the investor said that he would definitely respect the novel and the opinion of its author. However, when Yang Jiu received the revised script, he realized that his novel was a mess. That's really changed.
He would rather not have any money than let those people dirty his work like this. Therefore, he terminated his contract with the investor at that time. Of course, he also paid a large sum of compensation.
Yang Jiu calculated that after he sold the house, he could fill the final payment. Then, he would bring his family back to his hometown of Nanjing. For all the years he had been in Beijing, he would consider it a dream.
“Alright, this toast is for you, brother Li. Let's meet again someday.” The thirty-year-old man, Yang Jiu, had red eyes as he raised his glass to Li Heng.
The clink of a glass is the sound of a split flute and confusion that breaks a dream.
......................
He staggered back to his house. His godly wife was waiting for him at the door. Yang Jiu felt guilty. If he didn't take it seriously, his wife wouldn't have to follow him everywhere now. However, he could not convince himself to serve those investors.
“Ah Rong, I want to sell that house. Let's go back to our hometown in Nanjing.”
“Oke.” Wife nodded. He had a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were filled with worry. “As long as we are together, there is nothing to worry about. I'll go and pack my luggage. ”
“Sorry, I..” Yang Jiu choked when he saw his wife's back. He suddenly wondered if his persistence had any meaning.
He had obviously turned a blind eye to it so that his wife and children would not have to wander around. Is it really worth it to make my family suffer with me because of the little trust in my heart?
Yang Jiu did not sleep all night. The ashtrays on the balcony were already filled with ashes.
The sky gradually lit up. Yang Jiu sighed and pulled out his phone to find the investor's number.
If he was alone, he would not submit to the capital even if he had to eat dirt. However, he had a family and he could not let them suffer with him.
With trembling hands, Yang Jiu hesitated a few times before finally deciding to call.
However, before he could call, Li Heng called.
“Halo.” Yang Jiu, who had not slept all night, sounded tired.
“Yang Old! Quickly, prepare. See you at Time Cafe at ten. Xia Wanyuan has agreed to accept our script!!!” Li Heng was very excited over the phone.
“Don't forget! I'll go and prepare the documents first. Goodbye to.”
Yang Jiu was still a little dumbfounded when the call closed. He did not expect Xia Wanyuan to accept the script, but after all, this was a turning point.
Once the main cast was confirmed, he could start attracting investment. This meant that he had a chance to catch his breath.
She had watched the drama “The Long Ballad” before, and she was sure that if Xia Wanyuan were to play the lead character, she would definitely play this role well.
His wife was still packing when she saw Yang Jiu excitedly changing clothes and taking a bath.
“Honey, don't pack for now. I'll go out for a while and wait for me to come back. ” Later, Yang Jiu left home.
......................
In the Time Cafe, even though they had seen Xia Wanyuan's shocking beauty on television, Li Heng and Yang Jiu were still dumbfounded when they saw her standing in front of them.
“Halo, I'm Xia Wanyuan.”
“Halo, I'm Li Heng. She's the author of ‘Moon Like Frost’, The Jiu.” Xia Wanyuan's cold voice woke them from a daze and they hurriedly introduced themselves.
“I've seen your script. It's very well written. When will we be on set?”
“Hah?” Li Heng and Yang Jiu were shocked. They had never seen such a straightforward actor before. He just got on the production team?
“No investor?” Xia Wanyuan frowned slightly.
Yang Jiu's heart sank as he looked at Xia Wanyuan's expression. Even she felt that asking Xia Wanyuan to act in a drama where their funds had not been collected made her suffer. He considered this cooperation non-negotiable.
“Although we are short on money, I.” Li Heng still wants to find another reason to persuade Xia Wanyuan.
“I can be an investor.” Xia Wanyuan interrupted Li Heng. “50 million? 100 million? How much do you need? Give me a detailed report. ”
“……..”
......................
Until Xia Wanyuan left the coffee shop, the two of them seemed to still be in a dream.
“Did he just say that he wants to invest?”
“Mm.”
“He also said that you will personally write the script adaptation, right?”
“Mm.”
“I think he must be a god sent by heaven to save us.”
“Mm.”
......................
After confirming her cooperation with the production team of “Moon As Frost”, Tang Yin rejected the other script.
“What? Xia Wanyuan rejected our script?” Director “Above the Moon Palace” in disbelief. If not for the fact that Xia Wanyuan had attracted a lot of fans and had such an elegant ruse, such a large production would never have been played by Xia Wanyuan.
I didn't expect this little celebrity to be so ungrateful? Not only did he reject my script, but he even turned around and chose a small production team that didn't even fit to carry the shoes for “The Moon Palace”. Isn't this clearly slapping my face?
“He doesn't know what's good for him. Forgetit. Let's not count anymore. Bai Lian who came to the audition last time, tell her to come.”
“Good.”
There are many opinions online about Xia Wanyuan's upcoming drama. Over the past few days, the production team of “Above the Moon Palace” has been following Xia Wanyuan's Weibo. Everyone guessed that Xia Wanyuan would act in “Above the Moon Palace”.
A group of anti-fans were envious of Xia Wanyuan's good resources. Many people who passed by were also somewhat confused. How could Xia Wanyuan receive such a good resource?
Soon, the official Weibo account of “Above the Moon Palace” began to announce the actors. What was surprising was that Xia Wanyuan was not included. This sparked everyone's discussion, and many haters took the opportunity to show up.
