Chapter 242: The Compensation of Two Million, Was It All For Me?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Not a single strawberry could be eaten.

They even lost strawberry seeds and a greenhouse.

Shi Xi’s eyes darkened. Very soon, she received a call from Han Chuan.

“The person behind Nan Wan invested 50 million to change the role of the second female lead,” Han Chuan said seriously, “We invested 20 million back then. Now the production team has agreed to return the money we invested and will pay another two million in compensation.”

Shi Xi asked, “The two million in compensation, is it all for me?”

Han Chuan: “???”

After a moment of silence, Han Chuan said, “The company’s higher-ups are discussing whether to increase the investment to 60 million yuan to protect your role.”

“With this 60 million yuan, we should be able to direct a movie by ourselves, right?” Shi Xi felt a little sorry for the money.

“When you become famous, you’ll be able to earn back the money.” Han Chuan suddenly sighed and said, “I’m just afraid that they won’t look at money.”

Shi Xi didn’t say anything.

Nan Wan was a member of Yanjing’s entertainment industry. The director and producer didn’t want to offend the people behind Nan Wan either.

And Nan Wan had already given these people a lot of face by bringing money into the team this time.

Shi Xi suppressed the unwillingness in her heart and said, “Forget it. If I can get 2 million, I’ll still make a profit.”

“It just so happens that I have to prepare for the stage of [Star Idol] recently. If the scenes here are gone, they’ll be gone.”

“Since the company has the 20 million yuan, they can directly form a team for me and let me play the female lead!”

Han Chuan said, “Alright.”

From the company’s perspective, Han Chuan wasn’t willing to spend so much money just for a supporting actress.

“Oh right, don’t tell my brother about this.” Shi Xi added, “If it’s a replacement, then it’s a replacement.”

Han Chuan was slightly surprised. He didn’t expect Shi Xi to be so sensible. “I’ll tell President Shi that I have other arrangements for you.”

Shi Xi: “Let’s put it this way.”

If she had used 60 million yuan to fight for the role of the female lead, Shi Xi would have given it a try.

But this was just a supporting actress.

Shi Xi and Han Chuan both felt that it was not worth it.

On the other side, Director Yan and the producer were having a heated argument and almost started fighting.

Shi Xi let Zhu Lin pack up her things and prepared to leave. She was glad that she did not change her clothes.

Otherwise, it would not look good if she was dejected.

Zhu Lin was indignant as she packed up her things and cursed Nan Wan in her heart.

Nan Wan had already walked around the set once and returned. She sat on Shi Xi’s seat and said with a smile, “Oh right, I just arrived today and haven’t gotten the script yet.”

“Xi Xi, give me your script. You’re useless anyway.”

She was disco dancing in a minefield.

The staff felt that it was not too much for Shi Xi to slap her now.

However, Shi Xi only gave a faint smile and said, “I’m sorry, I can memorize my lines very quickly. I never bring a script with me.”

Nan Wan’s face stiffened.

Zhu Lin added fuel to the fire by the side. “It can’t be. You’re already in the group, and you haven’t even memorized your lines?”

Nan Wan maintained her smile. “I don’t want to memorize it too early. If the role is changed, it wouldn’t be good.”

Both her words and tone were mocking Shi Xi for not being able to keep her role.

Shi Xi smiled as well. “Looks like Sister Nan Wan has been robbed of her role many times and gained some insights!”

The smile on Nan Wan’s face froze.

Shi Xi continued, “But I’m still young. I memorized those lines after reading them twice.”

“Sister Nan Wan, your acting hasn’t improved. Are you worried that your role will be snatched away and you don’t dare to recite the lines?”

“You!” Nan Wan could not say anything to refute, and she was so angry that she widened her eyes and clenched her hands.
