Before deciding to invest in this film, Yang Zhuoying did a market survey and found that the box office in recent years does not mean that if you spend a lot of money to hire some big stars, the box office will definitely be high, and some low-cost works will have a low box office.

In fact, audiences in first-tier cities now seldom choose to watch domestic movies, and most of them watch foreign movies.

The audience of domestic films is the audience in third- and fourth-tier cities. This group of audiences is relatively conservative. When they choose movies, they tend to choose some works starring stars with acting skills, and they are not superstitious about traffic stars.

When Zhou Zhiqiao and the others decided to invite Chen Rong and Du Jin to lead roles, Yang Zhuoying actually didn't agree with it, but she was an outsider after all, and many examples proved that if an outsider directs an insider, there will be no good results.

However, the situation is different now, because of Yang Haining's sinister intentions, those traffic stars are not willing to cooperate with them, and instead gave Yang Zhuoying the opportunity to put forward his own opinions.

"Then what's your opinion?" Zhou Zhiqiao asked, resting her chin lightly.

"I have studied this year's box office report, and found that the market for movies starring traffic stars is not very popular, and those with excellent production, superb acting skills, and good scripts are more marketable. I think that instead of spending a lot of money to invite If you are a popular star, it is better to spend the money on the production fee. Our script is actually good, if you can invite a few actors who are suitable for the role, plus your artists, the film should have good results." Yang Zhuoying analyzed .

Zhou Zhiqiao carefully read the analysis report made by Yang Zhuoying, "Then do you already have a suitable candidate in your mind?"

"I think the male lead will continue to be played by Shen Lang. Although he is not well-known, this role is very suitable for him, and he is simply acting in his true colors."

"The most important thing is that he is very obedient and the price is cheap, right?" Zhou Zhiqiao added.

Yang Zhuoying twitched the corners of her lips, saying what was the truth, ignored her teasing, and continued talking.

"For the female lead, I want to find Lin Kexin. Her acting skills and temperament are very suitable for this role. She also has a certain reputation, and her salary is only half of Chen Rong's."

"Actually, when I read the script, director Chen and I considered her because the role of the female lead is almost tailor-made for her. It's a pity."

Lin Kexin used to be the top four actresses. She has been in the industry for ten years, and her acting skills are just a few blocks away from those little girls. It's just that she has a fatal flaw.

"Two years ago, she made out with a married man in the car, and there was a lot of trouble. Her reputation was already rotten. Even if she didn't get paid, no one would use her again, let alone let her play a female role. One."

Regarding this matter, Yang Zhuoying has also read relevant reports, which is why she did not bring it up before.

"It's been so long that the audience has forgotten about it. I have seen many male artists who have had similar experiences, and they will come back after a while."

Zhou Zhiqiao shook her head, "This society is more tolerant of men than women. It's okay if she is only cast as the third female lead. It's too risky to be the first female lead. I don't agree with taking risks."

Seeing her disapproval, Yang Zhuoying didn't insist anymore. After that, the two discussed several candidates, but they were not very satisfied.

"It turns out that it's past one o'clock. Why don't you go out to eat first and continue when you come back." Yang Zhuoying looked at the time and said.

So, the two went to find a place to eat nearby.

"It can't be such a coincidence?"

After sitting down and ordering a set meal, Zhou Zhiqiao inadvertently glanced at it, her beautiful eyes widened, her face full of astonishment.

"Who is it?" Yang Zhuoying followed her gaze, and saw a woman wearing sunglasses sitting in the corner by the window.

In the restaurant, she was still wearing sunglasses. Her first reaction was that the woman should be a celebrity. At first glance, she looked familiar, but she couldn't recognize who she was for a while.

"Lin is fine." Zhou Zhiqiao said firmly.

Yang Zhuoying immediately found out Lin Kexin's photo, and then compared it with the woman on the opposite side. It was indeed somewhat similar, but the woman in front of her was a bit older than the person in the photo.

"It's rare to meet here, how about going to say hello?"

Zhou Zhiqiao was about to say something when she saw a man wearing a mask walking towards Lin Yike.

"What on earth can't you say on the phone? Didn't you say that you don't want to call me if you have nothing to do?" The man looked around and sat down opposite Lin Yike when no one noticed him.

The waiter came over with the order list, the man ordered a cup of coffee impatiently and sent him away.

"Qiming, my father was injured and hospitalized, and urgently needs money for surgery. Can you lend me 100 million yuan for the sake of the past, and I promise I will repay it to you in the future." Seeing his impatient expression, Lin It is also possible not to beat around the bush, but directly explain the intention of coming.

He looked at her incredulously, "You still have the face to tell me about your past relationship? Back then, when you were fooling around with other men behind my back, did you ever think about our relationship! Just because You, how many people have ridiculed me behind my back, even now, those black people still use that incident to mock me from time to time, yet you still have the nerve to ask me for money, Lin Yike, you have no shame?"

Lin Yike's eyes were full of disappointment and pain, "I have explained many times, I was framed by others, I did not betray you, someone put the ingredients in my wine"

"Enough!" Lin Qiming cut her off impatiently.

"Which one of the people in this circle is really clean? You want to get that role and go to have dinner with Boss Lin. I can understand, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid. You can't wipe your mouth when you steal food. You were secretly photographed by the reporter." Those evidences have also implicated me, and now I still have the face to ask me for money, I have seen a lot of stupid women, and I have never seen one as stupid as you."

Being so insulted, Lin Yeke felt his face burning hot, wishing to leave immediately, but thinking of his father who was still lying in the hospital, he could only endure the embarrassment, and begged: "I will pay you back the money, and I will definitely pay you back in the future." Pay it back to you, please lend me 100 million first, okay?"

"You have nothing to film now, and you can't even get 100 million, so why pay me back in the future?"

"I will definitely pay you back. Apart from you, I really can't find anyone else to help me. Please help me." Lin Yike held his hand a little out of control in desperation.

Lin Qiming shook off her hand as if she had gotten something dirty, "Don't move, do you want people to discover our identities?"

"Sorry, I didn't mean it." Lin Yike withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

Lin Qiming twitched the corners of his mouth, took out a tissue and wiped the place she had held, his face was full of disgust.

Throwing away the tissue, he took out a check he had prepared a long time ago and threw it to her, "Don't say I'm heartless, here's 5 yuan, you take it, but don't come to me again in the future, I have to rush back to the set, That's it." With that, he stood up and left.
