Chapter 255: Qiao Qing Scouting
“First of all, though your reputation speaks for itself, you’ve been working independently. I want you to sign a contract with Sky Entertainment. You can take your own jobs on the side, but if you work for a project that the company disagrees on, then you must proceed in accordance with the company’s policies.”
Seeing that Shen Jie had frowned at that, Qiao Qing continued, “Don’t worry. Though Sky Entertainment is a relatively new company, it’s now comparable to Xing Chen Entertainment operated by the Fu Corporation. The speed at which it is growing is unprecedented.”
“You are extremely talented and should know that it’s always better to have a dependable tree behind you for you to enjoy the breeze. Sky Entertainment won’t treat you badly. It definitely wouldn’t bury you and ignore your talent.”
Shen Jie stared at her, “How can you be sure that Sky Entertainment wouldn’t do that? Are you connected to Sky Entertainment?”
Qiao Qing tapped at the cup in her hand, “Don’t you know that curiosity killed the cat? You don’t believe what I’m saying?”
“I believe you! I also believe what you have to say.” For some reason, despite the fact that she was only a young girl, he strangely felt that she was very persuasive, “But…”
Qiao Qing then said, “I’m not selling my other two books, but I will reserve them for you.”
Shen Jie’s eyes brightened. “Deal!”
Then, he asked, “What about your second condition?”
“Second,” Qiao Qing said, “When you pick actors for ‘Immortal’, go through the normal audition process. But use Lin Xiyan as the female lead in the end.”
Shen Jie was surprised. He thought about it and then realized, “The girl from before? The extra?”
Qiao Qing nodded.
Shen Jie, “That girl has a very good sense of acting, but to be a female lead right away… isn’t that too high of a target? Plus, you know I’m going to go all out for this production. No matter how much of a good vibe she’s giving me, she’s probably not good enough yet.”
Qiao Qing drank another sip of mocha, “Where an actor starts is a double-edged sword. If she does well, she may become very famous. If she doesn’t do well… I wouldn’t let that happen.”
“Acting can be practiced and trained. I put all my heart into that book, so I wouldn’t treat it as a joke.”
“I will ask famous actors to help her and train her. I’ll do what I can to help her improve. I don’t ask for speed with filming, but I do ask for every scene to be a masterpiece. Don’t worry about funding.”
“Deal!” Shen Jie slammed on the table, “I’ve dealt with Fu Siying as the female lead, I can work with a girl with potential!”
Qiao Qing nodded, “Give me the contract.”
Shen Jie handed the contract to Qiao Qing with both of his hands. As he watched Qiao Qing scan over the document and eventually sign, he asked, “Do you have time right now?”
Qiao Qing didn’t even look up, “What is it?”
Shen Jie said, “I want to invite you to be a part of the screenwriting process. After all, you wrote the novel. You should know better than anyone else how the film version of ‘Immortal’ should look like.”
Qiao Qing finished signing. She pressed onto the contract, spun it, and pushed it to Shen Jie, “The script’s done. I will ask someone to deliver it to you.”
Shen Jie was shocked and he turned very excited, “Qingqing, you never disappoint!”
Qiao Qing stretched her lips, “When you get the chance, go sign with Sky Entertainment. There will be someone to onboard you. If there’s nothing else today, I’ll leave first.”
Shen Jie thought of something, “I’ve never told you my address before. How will you deliver the script to me? It’s rare for you to make such mistakes.”
Qiao Qing didn’t explain, “Text me your address.”
She didn’t stay any longer and left.
That night, Qi Yusen went home for dinner.
Jun Yexuan thought it would be a sin if he didn’t take this opportunity to do something.
So, after Qiao Qing left the library and returned to the main house for dinner, she found a giant birthday cake and several bottles of alcohol…
