If Hongcao Entertainment allowed Pei Jie to continue acting in [Energetic Girl 2], it would only bring profits to Kuai Xue. Therefore, they were in a hurry to start a drama to harvest traffic.
They also wanted to tie Shi Xi and Pei Jie together.
“This Jiang Feng came to me before to create a scandal between you and Pei Jie, but I didn’t agree,” Han Chuan said unhappily. “I did not expect him to change his method and come to us again.”
Shi Xi had always been clean in the entertainment industry and did not want to stir up scandals with any male celebrities.
Although she had many CP’s in the entertainment industry, Shi Xi paid attention to maintaining a distance from them.
She absolutely would not be pinned down by any CP.
“But this script is a little ordinary!” Shi Xi was still flipping through the script with a frown.
She took over the script and could naturally see that it was perfunctory.
“I heard that the original novel is very interesting. 1 guess the scriptwriter isn’t good enough.” Han Chuan flipped through a few pages of the script and said nonchalantly, “That’s fine. We’ll bring our own scriptwriter over.”
For artistes, the lead actor would bring their own scriptwriter into the cast and have the right to modify the script.
Of course, other than the lead actor, if the other actors had high status or invested a lot of money, they also had the right to adapt the script.
Shi Xi looked at the arrangements and said, “Such a big xianxia production, only two months?”
“There are only twenty-four episodes in total. Two months is almost the same, but they have to use a lot of green screens.” Han Chuan was quite familiar with filming in the entertainment industry.
The more outstanding films would take about half a year to film.
Ordinary dramas also took more than three months.
However, this xianxia drama only needed two months to shoot.
Just from the timing, one could tell that this was a crude drama.
However, [Nine Lives of Peace] was still quite famous.
Shi Xi had never read this novel, but she had heard of this IP.
“Let me read the original novel.” Shi Xi put down the script and searched for it on her phone. She found the original novel and read a few chapters. She realized that the novel was very interesting and had a certain number of fans online.
Seeing Shi Xi’s interest, Han Chuan asked, “Do you want to take this script?”
Shi Xi was deep in thought. “That Jiang Feng is right. Lou Lou has to be hospitalized for a month, and the movie has to be postponed for a month.”
“During this period of time, it would not be bad to film a drama.”
“Are you sure you want to take it?” Han Chuan asked. “What will you say to President Shi?”
Thinking of Shi Xu, Shi Xi’s eyes drooped slightly.
In the Shi family, Shi Xi was still in a dilemma.
However, when she saw that the job opportunity was right in front of her, Shi Xi immediately made a decision.
“I want to accept [Nine Lives of Peace].” Shi Xi said firmly, “Get the Legal Department to sign the contract first. We have to get the say in the script production, time, and venue.”
Seeing that Shi Xi had made such a decisive decision, Han Chuan said happily, “I’ll contact the Legal Department now and try to get both contracts signed tomorrow.”
Two contracts.
The contract for Shi Xi’s [Nine Lives of Peace].
The contract with Pei Jie for [Energetic Girl 2].
The earlier they signed the contract, the better it would be to protect the interests of both parties.
After deciding to stay in the entertainment industry, Shi Xi focused on her work mode.
She first reorganized the script of [Nine Lives of Peace] and asked the screenwriter and the author to revise it.
Then, she found Pei Jie and talked about the script together.
In the middle, she even read the guest information of the variety show [Delicacies in the Freezer].
Being an artiste didn’t mean that they could easily get paid just by filming the show..
