Chapter 310 The Moon Is Like Frost
In the turbulent food stalls, two middle-aged people were sitting together drinking wine. One of them was Li Heng who sent the script to Xia Wanyuan, and sitting next to him was the original author of "The Moon Like Frost". Yang Jiu.
"Old Yang, I'm sorry for you. Maybe I shouldn't have let you come to the imperial capital to find food." Li Heng took a sip of wine and looked at the blurred lights in front of him, panicking in his heart.
"If it wasn't for you, I would have starved to death. I never blame you. Over the years, I don't know what I am insisting on. After all, there is no place for me to live in this prosperous imperial capital."
In the early years, Yang Jiu was also a very popular writer of online novels. He made a lot of money and bought a house in the imperial capital, which is considered to have taken root in the imperial capital.
Over the years, there have been popular novel IP adaptations. Yang Jiu is a stubborn person. He has seen too many precedents of adapting and destroying the original work. He did not want his efforts to be ruined by others and refused many opportunities.
A few months ago, when they were talking about cooperation, the investors said that they must respect the novel and the writer's opinion 100%, but when Yang Jiu got the adapted script, he found that his novel had been changed in a mess. Replaced a base.
He would rather have no money than let those people ruin his works like this, so he terminated the contract with the investor at that time, and of course, he also paid a large amount of compensation.
Yang Jiu did the math. When he sold the house and just filled in the last payment, he took his family back to his hometown in Nanjing. These years in the imperial capital were considered a big dream.
"Okay, this glass of wine toast to you, Brother Li, there will be a future." Yang Jiu, a man in his thirties, raised his glass to Li Heng with blood in his eyes.
Ding clang, the collision of wine glasses, it is the sound of parting, and the confusion of broken dreams.
Shaking back to the door, his virtuous wife was waiting for him at the door. Yang Jiu felt guilty. If he wasn't so serious, his wife wouldn't have to follow him, but he couldn't convince himself to cater to those investors.
"Arong, I want to sell the house, let's go back to our hometown in Nanjing,"
"Okay." The wife nodded with a gentle smile on her face, but her eyes were full of sadness. "As long as we are here, we are not afraid of not having a bite to eat. I will pack up."
"I'm sorry, I" Yang Jiu choked up and looked at his wife's back, suddenly doubting whether his persistence was meaningful or not.
Obviously, by opening one eye and closing one eye, you can save your wife and children from being displaced. Is it really worth it to let your family suffer with you for that little faith in your heart?
Yang Jiu stayed up all night, the ashtray on the balcony was already full of ash.
The sky gradually became brighter, Yang Jiu sighed, took out his mobile phone, and found the investor's phone number.
If he was alone, he wouldn't bow to capital even if he went to eat chaffy dishes, but he had family, and he couldn't let them suffer with him.
With trembling hands and hesitating a few times, Yang Jiu finally made up her mind to make a call.
But the phone didn't go out, but Li Heng's call came.
"Hey," Yang Jiu, who hadn't slept all night, had obvious exhaustion in her voice.
"Old Yang! Hurry up and get ready, see you at the Time Cafe at ten o'clock, Xia Wanyuan has agreed to accept our script!!!" Li Heng was extremely excited on the phone, "Don't forget! I'll go to prepare the materials first. ,Bye."
Yang Jiu was still a little stunned when the call was hung up. He didn't expect Xia Wanyuan to take over his script, but anyway, this was a turning point.
Once the main actor is decided, he can start to pull investment, which means that he has a chance to breathe.
He had seen the TV series "Long Song Xing", and at a glance he decided that if Xia Wanyuan came to play his leading role, he would definitely play this role alive.
The wife was still packing things in the house when she saw Yang Jiu excitedly changing clothes and washing up.
"Wife, don't take it yet, I'll go out first and wait for me to come back." Then Yang Jiu left the house.
In the Time Cafe, even though they had seen Xia Wanyuan's amazing beauty on TV, Li Heng and Yang Jiu were still stunned when they actually saw people standing in front of them.
"Hello, I'm Xia Wanyuan."
"Hello, I'm Li Heng, he is the author of "The Moon Like Frost", Yang Jiu." Xia Wanyuan's cold voice woke them up from their stunned state, and quickly introduced herself.
"I've read your script, it's well written, when will you join the group?"
"Ah?" Both Li Heng and Yang Jiu were shocked. They had never seen such a cheerful actor before, so they joined the group directly?
"That's right, we are a small production crew, and the investors haven't been in place yet, so we can't start the film for now." After knowing that Xia Wanyuan was going to play "The Moon Like Frost", Li Heng sent emails to some film and television companies, some of which already had I have the intention to invest, but I haven't had time to finalize specific matters.
"No investors?" Xia Wanyuan frowned slightly.
Seeing Xia Wanyuan's expression, Yang Jiu's heart sank. Even he himself felt that Xia Wanyuan would be wronged by letting Xia Wanyuan play a play that they had not yet gathered their funds, and it was impossible to negotiate this cooperation.
"Although we are short of money, but I" Li Heng wanted to find other reasons to convince Xia Wanyuan,
"I can be an investor." Xia Wanyuan interrupted Li Heng, "Fifty million? One hundred million? How much do you need? Just give me a detailed report."
""
Until Xia Wanyuan left the cafe, both of them still seemed to be dreaming.
"Did she just say she wants to invest?"
"Um."
"She also said that the script adaptation would be written by you, right?"
"Um."
"I think she must be an immortal sent by God to save us."
"Um."

After confirming the cooperation with the crew of "The Moon Like Frost", Tang Yin pushed down all other scripts.
"What? Xia Wanyuan rejected our script?" The director of "Above the Moon Palace" couldn't believe it. If it weren't for the fact that Xia Wanyuan has a lot of fans in Princess Tianling, plus the gimmicks of Yazi, his production of such a large scale is absolutely unbelievable. It's not Xia Wanyuan's turn to play.
Didn't expect this little star to be so ignorant? ? Not only did he reject his script, he even turned around and chose a small crew that was not worthy of shoes for "Above the Moon Palace". Isn't this a slap in the face?
"I don't know what to do, let's not do it anymore, that Bai Lian who came back to audition last time, tell her to come."
"OK."
There have always been different opinions on the Internet about Xia Wanyuan's next play. The crew of "Above the Moon Palace" these days has followed Xia Wanyuan's Weibo, and everyone has speculated whether Xia Wanyuan is going to play "Above the Moon Palace".
A group of black fans are all over the good resources of Xia Wanyuan, and many passers-by are also a little puzzled, how can Xia Wanyuan receive such good resources?
Soon, the official blog of "Above the Moon Palace" began to officially announce the actors. Surprisingly, there was no Xia Wanyuan in it, which aroused everyone's discussion, and many sour and black people also took the opportunity to emerge.
Today is the 6th shift, and the rest will be released before 3pm.
