Chapter 490

~6 min read 1,135 words

Damn, capitalists would cry hearing this, and Satan would have to tattoo you on his back.

Never heard of an actor having to pay the director to act.

"Huh? Did I ask for too little? Then let’s make it 6 million, should I ask for more?"

Xu Feng said with a "confused" expression.

"Di, Director Xu, you, you’re joking, right?"

The smile on Lu Han’s agent’s face was already a bit strained.

She had been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and this was the first time she’d heard of negotiating conditions like this.

Actors paying the director to act?

How is this different from an employee paying the company to go to work?

"You still want to ask if I’m joking with you."

At this time, Xu Feng’s expression changed, and the coldness erupting from his eyes made the surrounding old hands like Chen Daoming and Zhang Songwen, who had been struggling in the entertainment industry for decades, shudder.

"Are you trying to ruin my show? You bastard."

Xu Feng, sitting in the director’s chair, raised his finger and pointed at Lu Han.

"Letting such a thing act in my show, are you doing this on purpose to mess with me, or do you have no idea about your own artist’s acting skills?"

Lu Han’s face turned blue and white, but he held his breath for a long time and couldn’t squeeze a word out from between his teeth.

Although what he did this time was quite brainless, most of the time his brain could still function.

If he said something that made Xu Feng dissatisfied now,

he could basically forget about mixing in the film and television circle.

You have to know, Lu Han is basically just making money in the film and television circle and the variety show circle now.

The agent suppressed the anger in her heart and barely smiled:

"Director Xu, this role only appears for less than ten minutes in the show, it shouldn’t be as serious as you say, right?"

"Nonsense, if there was more screen time, could I charge you so cheaply?"

"One price, 8 million, take it or leave it."

Xu Feng imitated the "Six-Teacher" tactical lean-back and said.

Jay Chou and the others were stunned listening from the side.

Good fellow, you have to know that most of them didn’t even get 8 million for acting in an entire show.

Lu Han just cameos as an extra with less than ten minutes of screen time, and it costs 8 million?

And it’s paid back to Xu Feng?

Can only say it’s too bullying.

Uh, Xu Feng thinks it’s actually okay.

After all, with Lu Han’s destructive acting skills and his public favor that has fallen into the gutter.

Not charging him an eight-figure fee is already pretty good.

He just weighed the pros and cons and felt that charging this much was appropriate.

If he really wanted to bully him, he would just go and sleep with his girlfriend, okay.

Uh... forget it.

Xu Feng has always felt that Guan Xiaotong belongs to the same type as Sakura.

That is, she doesn’t look bad, but she just doesn’t make people feel any desire.

And as a senior Bilibili user in his past life,

whenever he saw Guan Xiaotong’s face, he always associated it with the fat guy dancing to *New Treasure Island* and the ghost videos of Sister Cha-Cha.

Damn, I can’t get it up.

In the end, Lu Han and his agent still didn’t agree to "pay to participate."

If they really set this precedent, they were afraid they would be laughed to death by people in the circle.

"Brother Zhang, is something the matter?"

Zhang Songwen was stunned watching from the side and only reacted when Xu Feng spoke to him.

"Oh, Director Xu, this title is too much for me, just call me by my name."

Zhang Songwen, who had come back to his senses, hurriedly replied with a smile:

"That... I feel my screen time isn’t much, it’ll be finished in a few days, how about I don’t take any pay and just make a friendly appearance?"

Xu Feng could even make a top-tier star like Lu Han pay to participate.

It made Zhang Songwen embarrassed to ask for money.

Xu Feng, of course, couldn’t really not pay him.

Although he liked to suppress actors’ pay, how could he really not give money?

Do you know this violates labor laws?

As for Lu Han... damn, your participation is simply a stain on this masterpiece.

Isn’t it normal to ask for some mental damages?

"Brother Xu Feng, if Lu Han gave you money, would you really let him participate?"

The legal loli Chen Yao asked curiously.

The role Lu Han wanted, Toma, was the boyfriend of Mayumi, whom she played.

If Lu Han really participated, she would have to act opposite him.

Eww... feels a bit disgusting.

Fortunately, he didn’t come.

"Of course not."

Xu Feng said without hesitation.

*Ultraman Tiga* is his childhood memory, how could he let such a rat dropping ruin this pot of soup?

"Then why did you talk nonsense with him for so long? Just to insult him?"

Zhao Jinmai blinked her big eyes curiously.

According to her understanding of Xu Feng, he shouldn’t have bothered wasting breath on someone of Lu Han’s level.

He should have just had security block them outside and not let them in.

Insult?

Where is the insult?

Aren’t all the things he said facts?

"It must be because the boss is kind-hearted, seeing him sell inferior goods to fans is unpleasant, so he’s venting for the fans."

Dilraba hurriedly added.

Zhao Jinmai glared fiercely at this new girl.

Old green tea, only knows how to suck up!

This is a bit awkward.

Speaking of selling inferior goods, Xu Feng doesn’t seem to be much better.

It’s not that they are inferior, but in those figure and merchandise stores Xu Feng opened.

Selling things with a two-digit cost for a three-digit price, and things with a three-digit cost for a four-digit or even higher price to fans, feels no better than Lu Han.

And Lu Han might even have a better heart, only scamming brainless fans.

Xu Feng waved his hand, and his first-generation assistant, Xiao Hei, walked over quickly, holding a camera.

"Boss, it’s all recorded."

When Xu Feng took it, the three girls curiously gathered around.

Took a look.

Whoa, the process of Xu Feng asking Lu Han and his agent for money was recorded exactly as it happened.

"When *Naruto* ends, sell this thing to the media to create some heat for *Tiga*~"

Xu Feng smiled wickedly.

A big director asking a top-tier young fresh meat to pay to participate, creating a precedent in the entertainment industry.
