Chapter 41 There is a clown
"The boy and girl were childhood sweethearts, and they were together from elementary school until they graduated from college."
"After graduation, the boy, whose family disagreed, gave up his family's property and resources, worked outside and lived a hard life, just to be with the girl."
"But I didn't expect that the girl could only share the joys and sorrows, but not the hardships. Not long after, she threw herself into the arms of the boy's rival."
"When a young man loses power, his opponents will ridicule him endlessly."
Gao Xixie's eyes were filled with bloodshot, and he said, "Tell me, if it were you, what would you do? What could you do?"
"that."
Looking at the fat man crying into his phone, Li Yang said awkwardly, "I turned off the live broadcast on my phone."
"Moragu?"
The fat man was slightly stunned for a moment, and then he said calmly, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Then, he put on his glasses and asked, "When will you start the live broadcast later?"
"Maybe. I still sympathize with you about being cheated on, but one thing is another."
Li Yang tentatively said: "If you want to promote the web drama, you have to pay more!"
Gao Xixie's eyes widened and he shouted angrily, "Ah, do you still have any compassion?"
"Even if my biological father comes, I have to pay as long as it is for commercial promotion." Li Yang sticks to the bottom line.
"Let's talk about it. The crew has just been formed and there are too many places to spend money. There is not much money left."
Seeing that Li Yang refused to give in, Gao Xixie's tone seemed to relax a little.
"Do you recognize who I am?" Li Yang looked over suspiciously.
This fat guy probably didn’t see the number of people in his live broadcast room, right?
He looks like a shameless person who is trying to get publicity by throwing a tantrum, and it seems like he knows me.
"No."
"Who are you?"
"Freeze said!"
Gao Xixie secretly said that something was wrong.
If you pretend not to know him, you may get it for free, but if you know him, you will definitely have to pay.
But he never expected that Li Yang would transform from suspicion to arrogance in just a few seconds.
"boom!"
"Hiss."
Li Yang's posture became increasingly arrogant as he exhaled smoke and said with a half-smile, "Want to promote?"
"Yeah, that's right."
Gao Xixie smiled and said,
"Childhood sweethearts. Cuckold. You're worthy of being a director. You're quite good at telling stories, right?" Li Yang raised his eyebrows slightly. If what the fat man did later was not too obvious, he would have almost been fooled.
"This is actually true. I really need this drama to prove myself." Gao Xixie's eyes were sincere.
Unfortunately, his eyes were too small and Li Yang couldn't see anything at all.
Even if I saw it, I pretended not to see it.
From the moment the fat man tried to steal his lighter, Li Yang knew that this guy was not a good person.
It also tells a story of a melodrama. Do you want to get it for free?
no way!
"How about that? The publicity expenses will be counted as your investment, and when the profits are settled, we'll split the money in proportion." Gao Xixie gritted his teeth, as if he had paid a huge price.
"No vote!" Li Yang answered straightforwardly.
"Why?" Gao Xixie asked.
"Let me describe how I feel."
Li Yang organized his words and said, "If you summarize the story of your being cheated on, it might be better than this script."
He said this with some disdain.
investment?
Free publicity labor, right?
This fat guy has no good intentions!
He even doubted whether the money earned from the web series was higher than his own publicity expenses. Don't underestimate the money-making ability of web celebrities.
The main reason why Li Yang is poor is that his real rise has only been less than a year, plus he has to pay full taxes and the SF90.
This is because Li Yang is not so unscrupulous as to engage in the e-commerce "family" stuff. He usually sends out huge red envelopes, and his income only comes from gifts on the platform and some simple advertisements.
But even so, if you calculate carefully, you've made quite a bit of money.
For a live broadcast room like Li Yang's, where the number of online viewers reaches 40, any promotion for a single mention of him would cost at least tens of millions of won.
But this drama.
He doubted that the script cost less than 10 million won.
"I know, but I can't help it."
Gao Xixie clenched his fists, his expression was extremely sincere, and said: "I also know that this script is not well written, but this is the only script I can buy."
"Are you afraid that you can't buy it even if you have money?" Li Yang was suspicious.
“Money is only one aspect of the problem.”
Gao Xixie laughed at himself and said: "My 'rival in love' is not a simple person. He is the apprentice of a famous director. All the writers in the whole peninsula will give face to that director."
"That's easy, can't we just not take the photo?"
Li Yang looked relaxed, stood up and said, "Stop disturbing me, I have to broadcast live later."
Gao Xixie's story is very interesting.
He could feel that this story should be true. As a person who was also abandoned by Bai Yueguang, he could empathize with it to some extent.
Can.
None of my business!
In the depths of Li Yang's dark eyes, a look of pity only appeared for a moment before returning to his usual indifference.
After struggling in the society for so many years, his heart has become numb and he has long forgotten the feeling of "passion".
"I just want to fight to the death. I want her to regret it. This may be my only chance in this life."
There was a hint of pleading in Gao Xixie's voice, his fists unclenched and clenched, and he said, "I beg you, please!"
He was alone, and had a complete falling out with his family because of the girl's matter. He had limited resources at his disposal, and encountered industry indifference that was like a ban.
Plus the rubbish script in hand
The exposure of Li Yang’s live broadcast room can be said to be his only hope.
Although, hope seems slim.
Li Yang stopped.
There was a hint of anticipation in Gao Xixie's bloodshot eyes.
“The story is very touching.”
Li Yang said sarcastically: "What a pity. After listening to the whole piece, I didn't feel moved at all. Instead, I only saw a 'self-touched' clown."
Then he sneered, "You don't really think such a story is touching, do you?"
"Why hasn't it started yet?"
"Are you going to meet again or not?"
"It's just a crappy web drama, but the director is so arrogant"
"I said the agency is unreliable and accepts all kinds of crappy roles."
The third floor, where the female role interviews were held, was noisy and chaotic, with voices of dissatisfaction everywhere.
"I heard that it seemed that there was a quarrel downstairs, and the rival who cheated on the director came to get close to him and attacked him. The director was so angry that he hid in his room and cried, so he suspended the interview."
"real or fake?"
"Where is it? Isn't this better than an interview?"
The long line was filled with the sound of conversation.
Sitting in the middle back, Zhao Meiyan changed into a white school uniform for the interview, tied her hair into a high ponytail, put on headphones, and lowered her head to concentrate on the script.
The sunlight shone through the window onto her body, as if she was coated with a layer of golden glow, beautiful and pure.
Not far away, some people seemed to recognize Zhao Meiyan and kept whispering.
“Isn’t that Jo Miyeon, a member of (G)idle?”
"A popular idol is also filming a small web drama like this?"
"She might be really hungry!"
"But I think it's unlikely that they'll be hired. After all, everyone knows that (G)idle is a bully group!"
