"Reduce the share?"
Ashina Tsukuyomi recalled the contract that Editor Nanjo had sent her at home the last time. It seemed that there was such a contract on it, but she had forgotten about it. She couldn't help but ask, "How much do I need to reduce it?"
"If Ashina were to hire the actors herself, the final MV would be promoted by our C Site. In the end, Ashina would get 70% of the final profit. But if you hire the actors, Tsukuyomi -san would only get 50%."
After Editor Nanjo finished explaining, she said to Ashina, "Actually, I suggest that you use the professional actors that C Site hired. After all, this is your first time releasing a song, so it's very likely that the song won't sell."
"So, in this case, if you hire the actors yourself, it's very likely that you won't even be able to get your money back. In the end, not only will you suffer a lot, but you'll also lose money."
Mu Fan nodded. Actually, Editor Nanjo's advice wasn't wrong. Although Ashina Tsukuyomi sang well, it was her first time releasing a song, so it was possible that she wouldn't be able to reach the price of the actors.
But —
This time, it wasn't something that Mu Fan could decide, so he didn't interrupt. It was better for Ashina to decide for herself.
"No, even if I can't do the other songs, I must film the MV for this song myself."
Ashina Tsukuyomi said with a serious expression, "Sister Nanjo, I'll take care of the actors."
Although Mu Fan didn't care, this song was very meaningful to Ashina.
Firstly, this was the first song that she released.
Secondly, it was because this song was written by Mu Fan and he personally gave it to her.
In terms of these two points, it would be a little unfair to herself and Mu Fan if she just contracted to C Site so casually.
"I see."
Editor Nanjo sighed and explained to Ashina, "Now, even some famous actors need 500,000 yen to participate in a performance, and first-tier actors need 3 to 4 million yen. Although Tsukuyomi's family doesn't lack the money, isn't it a little too much for a MV?"
Although Editor Nanjo felt that she had said a little too much, she still felt that Ashina was still young, so it was better to persuade her.
With Ashina's current popularity on C Site, if she hired actors, the price would be too high, and it was very likely that she wouldn't be able to get the money back.
Ashina Tsukuyomi shook her head, "No, Sister Nanjo, thank you for your persuasion, but I must film this song into a MV that I'm satisfied with!"
Although Yucheng Asuna had always been gentler and easier to talk to than others, once she had decided on something, she would not easily change her mind.
"Okay then."
Editor Nanjo stopped persuading her. Just as she turned around to print the contract, she turned around and saw Ashina's fresh and refined face sitting on a chair and flipping through the text. She couldn't help but feel moved and asked, "Ashina, actually, I just thought of a good way to film a MV."
"What way?" Ashina Tsukuyomi was shocked.
"I think Ashina can play the role in this song by herself."
"Me?"
Ashina was stunned for a moment and asked, "Isn't it inappropriate for me to do that?"
"Inappropriate?"
Editor Nanjo laughed and took out a mirror from her bag. She handed it to Ashina and said, "Ashina, aren't you confident in your appearance?"
"In my opinion, your appearance is top-notch even among first-tier actors. So it's not a problem to film a MV for idols. After all, as long as the actor is beautiful, the audience will tolerate some poor acting skills. "
"Moreover, if you film a MV yourself, the budget will be reduced a lot."
Speaking of this, Editor Nanjo looked at Mu Fan, who was sitting next to Ashina Tsukuyomi, and said, "Besides, this plot was written by Mu Fan, right? His appearance is barely passable. With his understanding of the original plot, plus your appearance that is comparable to a celebrity's, it's not a problem to film a MV for a song. "
Mu Fan, who was sitting on the chair, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard Editor Nanjo's words.
'Damn it, Ashina, why is she the best?
When it comes to me, her appearance becomes barely passable?
Even if it is, don't say it directly. It's very frustrating, okay? '
If Editor Nanjo wasn't a beautiful big sister, but a middle-aged man, Mu Fan really wanted to give him a buff.
"Mu Fan and I?"
After carefully recalling the content just now, Ashina Tsukuyomi's face suddenly turned red.
In fact, this plot belongs to the ending of "Empty Fate". Qiong jumped into the river, and Yu went down to save him, but in the end, she was brought up by Qiong. It seems a bit ambiguous, two people in the river or something …
"You can think about it and come to us again."
Looking at the hesitant Ashina Tsukuyomi, Editor Nanjo said with a smile.
Ashina Tsukuyomi took a deep breath and calmed her messy heart. If she wants to think about it, she will have to wait until next week.
Hiring other actors requires expensive funds. Although Tsukuyomi's family is not short of money, Ashina Tsukuyomi is not a person who likes to squander money for no reason.
After a moment of silence, Ashina Tsukuyomi made a decision in her heart. She looked at Editor Nanjo and said, "Sister Nanjo, I have decided. This MV will be shot by me personally."
After saying that, Ashina Tsukuyomi turned her eyes to Mu Fan, full of hope.
I …
Looking at the Miss's pleading look, Mu Fan was speechless. Every time Ashina Tsukuyomi showed such a pitiful expression, he really couldn't bear to refuse.
"Well, okay."
Editor Nanjo smiled slightly, then turned her eyes to Mu Fan and said meaningfully, "Then, Mu Fan, what are you going to do?"
Since Editor Nanjo and Ashina Tsukuyomi have already said this, Mu Fan naturally felt embarrassed to refuse. He could only nod and say, "Okay, then leave the male lead to me."
"Okay, then wait a moment. Read the script and familiarize yourself with the plot first. I will let C Station arrange it. Since you don't need actors, C Station will provide the shooting for free."
"Thank you."
Ashina Tsukuyomi nodded and took the document and read it carefully again.
After all, it was her first time reading the story, and she needed to read it many times to remember the content.
Mu Fan, who was on the side, didn't have too many concerns. He was most familiar with the distance of "Empty Fate" in his mind, so he didn't need to read the plot at all.
The two of them waited for about an hour, and a middle-aged man with a face full of stubble and long hair tied up behind his head walked in from the door. He looked quite artistic.
Editor Nanjo introduced Mu Fan and Ashina Tsukuyomi, "Ashina, Mu Fan, this is Director Sanada, who is shooting our MV this time."
"Hello, Director Sanada!"
They introduced each other, and then Sanada glanced at the script, glanced at Mu Fan and Ashina, and asked, "You should be familiar with the content of the script, right?"
"Yes."
Mu Fan and Ashina nodded at the same time.
"Okay."
Sanada and Editor Nanjo led Mu Fan and Ashina to a closed room, and then Sanada said to Mu Fan and Ashina, "This time, the script needs to be shot outdoors by the river, and the time has to be late at night. So, you two should familiarize yourselves with each other here. Remember, don't just think that it's enough to just read the lines. Your expressions and actions have to be like an intimate couple, so that the story can be perfectly restored."
"In addition, give each other some hugs and kisses at appropriate times, so that they can be more like an inexperienced couple."
"In short, you have to think that you are a couple at all times, understand?"
Hearing the director's great principles of astronomy and geography — —
Then, Mu Fan and Ashina were stunned — —
Forget about hugging!
What do you mean by kissing!
