NOVEL NEXT Chapter 78 More ideal than ideal
There was a buzz, and Xia Haoyang's mind seemed to freeze for a short time, and he suddenly couldn't believe what he heard. No, who is my mother’s poker friend, Carina Lau? Is she the Carina Lau I know?
Xia Haoyang also raised his questions.
"Yes, Carina Lau. She is very good at business and has always been in contact with our family. It was just a joke. Mom showed off her precious son. She doesn't sing anymore."
"Mom, you have a good relationship with Carina Lau. Do you know her husband Tony Leung?" Xia Haoyang's voice suddenly turned soft.
"I've seen it before, but Tony Leung doesn't like socializing very much, and he doesn't have many interactions. Son, what's wrong with you?"
"Well, I'm just asking, it might be hard to say."
"If you tell me anything, mom, maybe I can help you?"
"Can you ask Sister Jialing if you can let Tony Leung star in one of my MVs? A song MV. I know this is difficult, I just want to ask."
"Okay, let me ask you a question."
. . .
"It's done, but Jia Ling wants to ask you something in person, so I gave her the phone number."
nailed it? What the hell does it mean it's done? It's called done without saying anything. Mom, do you know what you are talking about? Xia Haoyang complained in his heart.
"Hey, it's Haoyang." Wu Nong's standard soft words appeared in his ears, and Xia Haoyang remembered that Carina Lau was originally from Suzhou.
"Hello, Sister Jialing, I am Xia Haoyang,"
"Haoyang, you said you wanted my husband Wei Zai to star in your MV. What MV is it?"
Xia Haoyang then very seriously expressed the concept of his music MV. The general plot was divided into two 30-minute episodes. He wanted Tony Leung to star in the character, image, characteristics, as well as the choice of music. He even briefly used The whistle was played to Carina Lau.
In about ten minutes of communication, Xia Haoyang felt that he had explained it very clearly. He needs a male protagonist with excellent acting skills to lead the performances of several girls, and he also needs him to support the entire plot alone. But this is just the MV song of the girl group. Even if it is a 30-minute plot, he can only release the MV as a song, and it is impossible to enter the theater. If even a slightly popular young actor is unwilling to star, can Tony Leung, the actor who is now recognized for his outstanding acting skills, be able to star? Xia Haoyang didn't even dare to think about it.
"OK, I agreed on behalf of Wei Zai." A light word came, and Xia Haoyang himself was stunned. What the hell, you agreed to this, and you haven’t mentioned the salary yet, so you just agreed to this?
Xia Haoyang quickly proposed that the remuneration would be 15% of the total number of MV downloads, and it would be valid forever. As long as the song is not free or paid, no matter three years, five years or ten years later, 15% of the total download amount will still be used as remuneration. That's right, when he invited Zhu Longyi, Xia Haoyang negotiated with the boss for 10%, but now he took the initiative to increase it to 15%.
"The pay, forget about the pay, just think of it as a favor to your mother." Carina Lau smiled and didn't ask for the pay.
Return a favor? Xia Haoyang was depressed. Damn it, what kind of favor is worth such a huge face? The male lead in his MV is solved like this, and then Zhu Longyi plays the second male lead? Oh, no, there are too many roles, and he can only make a cameo for one day. Then he can play the heroine's father, and Lao Xie can play the second male lead. Then he played the role of the boss of the female pickpocket who was beaten, and several other bosses played the role of the second male lead's younger brother. As for the female characters, Xiao Mengyan will play the female lead in the first part, Belle will play the second female lead in the second part, Jingyi will play the second female lead, and Minzhi will guest star as the female pickpocket in the upper part. Quan Wenxin and Zhu Suya will just appear as female publicists in one or two scenes.
The next day, after Xia Haoyang informed the company's bosses and Tara members about the entire cast arrangement for the MV, everyone looked at Xia Haoyang stupidly.
"Fat man, you, you mean Tony Leung will play the male lead in the MV." Zhao Yishen was frightened.
"Actually, Tony Leung is the most suitable male lead in my opinion. Zhu Long is just like Tony Leung." Xia Haoyang answered seriously.
"Holy shit, are you saying that the best actor Tony Leung Chiu Wai came to be a supporter for our girl group's MV? Is this true? Did you sell the company or did you sell your butt? No, Tony Leung is not gay, and he can't agree even if he sells his butt. Ah." Han Xiyu began to speak incoherently.
"You didn't even ask for the pay? I'm a good boy. How much of a favor do you owe your mother?" Lao Xie said he couldn't believe it.
"The world of rich people is so fucking jealous." Zhou Yuanhong also began to lament life.
Liu Xiaozhi and Juzi were very happy when they heard that Tony Leung was actually starring in their song MV, and that the popular Zhu Longyi also made a guest appearance. Tony Leung starred in the girl group's MV. Such a difficult thing is almost impossible for them to solve and achieve. Xia Haoyang's mother did it. This is the horror of capital, and this is the favor of rich people.
Everyone was still shocked by the news of Tony Leung's joining. Xiao Liu at the front desk knocked on the office door and walked in. He said with some surprise: "I received a fax. Hong Kong Tony Leung Studio asked us to send the MV script and prepare it." Good contract.”
Suddenly there were bursts of screams in the office.
"Oh my god, it's really Tony Leung, and he has to sign a contract. That's great." Juzi excitedly grabbed a girl next to him and hugged her, not even caring who she was.
"There are not many national first-class actors in Xiangjiang. Now national first-class actors are coming to support our girl group's MV. This lineup..." Han Xiyu is still in a dream.
"Xiao Liu, Tony Leung has confirmed to play the male lead in our MV, you go and sign a contract." The calm Zhou Yuanhong said to Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu agreed and turned around and left the office.
Zhou Yuanhong then said to Xia Haoyang: "Regardless of whether they refuse the salary or not, I think we should still send them the 15% you promised when the time comes. We will do what we say."
"Yeah, okay, that's what I mean too." Xia Haoyang nodded.
The contract with Tony Leung has been finalized, and the contract with Zhu Longyi for his friendly guest appearance has also been finalized. Then the official website announced the production of a Tara music movie, and directly pointed out that Tony Leung would star in the MV male lead, and Zhu Longyi would make a guest appearance. He also set up the other party's official website studio. Not long after, Tony Leung Studio and Zhu Longyi Studio also closed Fat Cat Studio and confirmed the news of joining on the official website. Carina Lau also checked in on Tony Leung and Tara's new song on her official Weibo, and also called on her fans to support the Tara girl group.
Little did they know that Carina Lau's check-in and the news that Tony Leung would appear in the girl group's MV triggered a series of scoldings on the Internet.
