Chapter 24 Sister Nazha, stop looking, or you'll start drooling!
"Wait a minute! The actor playing Lü Bu has a broken right leg. Can he still continue filming? What should I do?"
Gulinaza, slow to realize what was happening, finally came to her senses.
She played Diao Chan in "God of War Zhao Yun", and her most frequent co-star was Lü Bu.
As a result, Lü Bu suffered a broken right leg, and it takes a hundred days to recover from such a fracture. Are we supposed to make her wait a hundred days before filming her scenes with Lü Bu?
She can afford to wait, but the production team's funds can't!
Moreover, the company wouldn't allow her to wait foolishly like this.
The female assistant calmly analyzed, "It takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone. Even if he can film with an injury, he'll need to rest for more than two months, and the production team definitely can't wait that long. Luckily, he hasn't filmed many scenes with Lu Bu, so we can terminate the contract amicably and find a suitable actor within a few days."
Gulinazha fell silent, because reality was indeed so cruel and heartless.
Regardless of the previous negotiations, if an injury delays the filming schedule, a peaceful termination of the contract is the best option.
If it were her breaking a bone, she would react the same way; if it were Lin Zhenxin or Lin Run'er, they would react the same way too!
but……
Gulinaza frowned slightly. "Playing Lü Bu requires a lot of action scenes. There might be suitable actors in the industry, but how many are available?"
The female assistant shrugged. "That's beyond my knowledge. Perhaps we'd have to ask Director Cheng or the others, or call Sister K at the company. Hmm?"
The female assistant glanced at the languid Han Xian beside her, tugged at Gu Li's tied collar, and gave her a wink.
Han Xian?
Gulinaza instantly understood and looked at Han Xian with great interest.
With a face ten times more handsome than Lin Chen-hsin, the ratings would be high if the camera only focused on that face.
With his outstanding height and upright posture, he exudes a dashing and unrestrained air even when standing lazily.
Needless to say, his physique is exceptional. She had already seen Han Xian's upper body; his eight-pack abs and V-line were perfect, and his muscle lines were incredibly smooth.
She hadn't seen Han Xian in armor, but Meng Ziyi had told her that Han Xian's single glance had almost scared the entire production team to death and that Lin Zhenxin had nearly fallen off his horse. Presumably, Han Xian in armor would be the very embodiment of Lü Bu.
It was his captivating eyes, which seemed to look at everyone with such affection, that almost made her fall for him.
I wonder if she can handle acting opposite Han Xian.
Feeling Gu Lina's unabashed scrutiny, Han Xian raised an eyebrow. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Gulinaza smiled broadly, "Can't I see just how handsome you really are?"
Han Xian leaned closer and whispered, "Hey beautiful Nazha, don't forget what I told you. If you see too much of this, I might just end up scumbing to you!"
This guy!
How can you say anything like that!
Don't you know this is a noisy and chaotic film crew?
Gu Lina's pretty face flushed red. She lowered her gaze and glanced at Han Xian's neatly folded trousers. As if she remembered something, her expression quickly became calm and composed.
She slightly raised her chin, revealing her fair swan neck, her eyes sparkling with a gentle smile, her voice low and both alluring and provocative.
"My sister said she welcomes you to be a jerk to her, provided... you have the ability and skill!"
What a provocation!
This is blatant provocation!
Han Xian didn't expect Gu Lina to not only not back down but also dare to provoke him. In a fit of anger, he wanted to show her the consequences of provocation.
But before Han Xian could teach Gu Lina Zha a lesson, someone from the production team came and said that Director Cheng wanted to see him.
Han Xian gave Gu Lina a look that said, "You just wait."
Gulinaza returned a bright smile that said, "Sister is waiting for you, you scumbag sister," and watched Han Xian leave.
To be honest, Gulinaza hoped that Han Xian would play Lü Bu.
Not only because this way she and Han Xian would have many scenes together, which would give them a chance to get to know each other better.
Most importantly, this is beneficial to Han Xian.
If he plays Lü Bu, Han Xian will have his first notable role in his acting career.
When they go to other film crews, they won't have to be extras or masked special guests anymore; they'll most likely be able to start with supporting roles where they can show their face.
With Han Xian's face being even more handsome than the male lead, coupled with his ability to endure hardship, his strong versatility, and his decent acting skills, as long as he is given the opportunity, becoming a third-tier or second-tier actor is not a dream, and he can even try for first-tier status. Becoming a super-popular leading man is not an unimaginable possibility!
The female assistant whispered a reminder: "Sister Nazha, stop looking. If you keep looking, you'll start drooling, and it'll go viral."
Gu Lina blushed, her smile fading as she said coquettishly, "Don't talk nonsense, what do you mean by drooling! I just hope Han Xian can play Lü Bu, so that when I play Diao Chan I won't have to do too much rehearsal, and I can finish filming as soon as possible so I can go back to the company to catch up on other engagements."
Female assistant: "..."
No need for any adjustment period, you've practically given away Diao Chan for free!
Besides, judging from your smiling face, you don't seem like you want to finish filming as soon as possible and go back to the company early!
But Sister Zha, please, please don't let your on-screen romance with Han Xian become real, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to the company!
……
"Director Cheng."
"Han Xian is here, please have a seat."
Director Cheng chuckled and invited Han Xian to sit down, getting straight to the point: "You should know what happened on set, right?"
Han Xian nodded and told the truth: "I just found out."
Director Cheng smiled and said, "That's enough for me. I won't go into details. I've had someone inquire around, and there aren't many male actors suitable to play Lü Bu right now, and even fewer who are available. After considering all the options, you're the most suitable one right now. So I invited you here to ask if you want to play Lü Bu?"
Han Xian smiled faintly, "Director Cheng, are you sure you want me to play Lü Bu? You should know I'm a complete newbie in the entertainment industry. I don't have a company to help promote me or fans to boost my popularity. Casting me as Lü Bu might actually be a disaster!"
Director Cheng paused for a moment, then burst into laughter. "I might worry about these things if it were someone else, but not you. Our drama is a historical romance, and the most important thing is looks! Just based on your face, any drama with you on screen will have high ratings!"
It's worth noting that although Lü Bu is the fourth male lead, he has scenes with Gu Lina, which could be used to generate buzz and help him become a minor celebrity.
Unfortunately, Han Xian, who came from an extra's background, didn't immediately agree to take on the role of Lü Bu, which made him somewhat certain that Han Xian had a powerful background!
The production team members all smiled and nodded in agreement with Director Cheng's statement.
The plots of historical romance dramas are all similar, so the most important thing is the actors' looks. If the actors' looks aren't good enough, no matter how well the drama is made, it won't get many viewers.
Han Xian glanced at Lin Zhenxin, who was making a cheering gesture not far away, and said with a smile, "But what if Lin Zhenxin and I appear on camera at the same time? Once I show my face, I'll probably outshine him in looks."
Director Cheng laughed, "Don't worry, Zhao Zilong and Lü Bu never fought in our script, so you two won't appear in the same shot. Most of your scenes with Gulnazar will be with you. I'm really looking forward to seeing the beautiful scenes of you two, a handsome man and a beautiful woman! During the promotion... hahahaha!"
Thinking about the trending topics that might appear after the drama's announcement, Director Cheng revealed a sly smile.
In the film and television industry, it's common for the second female lead to outshine the first female lead, and it's also normal for the second male lead to be more handsome than the first male lead. After all, the male lead belongs to the female lead, while the second male lead belongs to everyone else.
Although Lu Bu in this drama is not the second male lead but the fourth male lead, the cast list is only for the production company and fans to see, and may not be the case during promotion.
Promote whoever benefits the TV series' ratings; other factors such as the company, background, and fame are unimportant!
As a popular young actor and a beautiful South Korean actress, Lin Zhenxin and Lin Run'er can guarantee the popularity of "God of War Zhao Yun".
If we add the handsome man and beautiful woman Han Xian and Gu Lina, there will be plenty of hype when the drama is promoted!
If the hype is poor, the ratings might still be somewhat guaranteed; if it's good, the ratings might even exceed expectations!
Moreover, he was very curious about Han Xian's background and felt that he might be able to get help from him.
Having used a strategy of feigned retreat to advance, Han Xian agreed to take on the role of Lü Bu. After the discussion, Han Xian took the actor's employment contract and looked at it.
He graduated with a bachelor's degree in law. Although his character is questionable, his professional skills are not bad.
Upon discovering that there were no hidden traps in the actor's employment contract, he signed his name directly.
The production of "God of War Zhao Yun" had a large budget, but the lion's share of the actors' salaries went to Lin Zhenxin and Lin Run'er, reportedly exceeding ten million yuan each. The salaries of other actors were not as high.
Lu Bu was the fourth male lead, and he died halfway through the story, so he didn't have many scenes and his salary wasn't much either.
However, Director Cheng was willing to spend a fortune to acquire talent, so even though Han Xian was a newcomer, his salary wasn't reduced much. He directly gave him a very convenient after-tax salary of 200,000 yuan.
And immediately after signing the contract, he paid 60,000 to Han Xian's bank card. The remaining 140,000 was paid in two installments: 60,000 during filming and 80,000 after filming wrapped.
In just a few days, Han Xian went from playing a minor role to portraying Lü Bu, and even received a net salary of 200,000 yuan. In reality, this would definitely be a fantasy.
But he lives in the world of an entertainment harem novel, so it would be perfectly reasonable for him to go from being a supporting character to a main character on his very first day of transmigration, let alone a minor one.
Fortunately, the author of this entertainment harem novel wasn't too harsh; he only made the actor playing Lu Bu suffer a broken bone and be hospitalized, instead of killing him outright. Otherwise, the production would have been paralyzed, and he wouldn't have received his 200,000 yuan salary.
I just hope that in the future, the male actors I encounter will all be like Lin Zhenxin, with little competition.
Otherwise, if the author of this book were to slam it down a few times, those rival male actors would have to be taken offline!
