The director was speechless. "What does that have to do with the three roles?"
"This is the result of the company's compromise and negotiation. These three characters that can appear in the cast will be selected through an online auction among Chinese people around the world."
"What?"
Clang!
When the director heard the ridiculous news, he jumped up from the sofa. The cup beside him, along with the tea and hot water, rolled onto his lap.
He had no time to wipe the water off his clothes. "Why didn't you tell us earlier? That's such a good way to make money!" he cried sadly.
Director Chen Kexin, who was sitting opposite him, was almost angered to death by this mercenary man. He replied angrily, "Bullsh * t, the auction has already started. The closing date is today!"
He rolled his eyes and put on his black-rimmed glasses, ignoring the director, who was wailing on the sofa with his hands over his head. Looking at his annoying buddy made his liver ache. I'd better wait for Qin Guan. I heard that he'd join the crew that day.
For the director, this was a very topical and explosive activity. It was very depressing for him to miss the promotion of his film.
However, for those people on the Internet, who were facing the timer on their computer screens and counting down, they were extremely happy.
Thanks to the sharing between friends in the same circle, not only from the Hong Kong circle, but also from Malaysia, Taiwan, Singapore, and even Vietnam, Thailand, and other Southeast Asian countries were all staring at this small website, which only their insiders knew about.
The detailed introduction of each role, as well as the requirements for the actors, were all clearly remembered by them. As for the rule of the auction, the highest bidder would win, these people who had attended countless auctions were naturally very clear about it.
As the most commonly used currency, the US dollar was used as the universal currency of this online auction. The bidding prices of the rich netizens were naturally converted into one currency by the online platform.
Role 1: A waitress serving Qin Guan.
Role 2: A rich wife attending a banquet with Zhou Xun.
Role 3: A member of the crew in the film.
Except for the one in the middle, the rest were all male and female.
The intensity of the auction shocked even the technical staff of the private website that made the temporary auction.
Fortunately, the production team was not short of money. Fortunately, the website was prepared for rich businessmen from all over the world. Just the large number of people who registered as soon as the website was opened to the public, as well as the many auctions after the public bidding, was a huge test for the backend and stability of the website.
Actually, it had not been so terrible. Qin Guan had been chosen as the actor in the end.
The guests at the Fashion Week, the jewelry auctions and the VIP events of various luxury brands had seen enough of Qin Guan's exquisite posters.
They were eager to see the real person. They wanted to confirm with their own eyes whether there really was such a person who had the spirit of heaven and earth in the real world.
Qin Guan's brother and sister were not short of money, so they had nothing better to do.
Especially the first character, it was as if this cabbage was very cheap, the numbers behind it kept changing.
Initial bidding price: 1 USD, no upper limit.
Ten minutes before the end of the online auction, the price of the character next to Qin Guan had reached 58,888.
Of course, the pot-bellied rich merchants and their wives naturally couldn't personally go into battle. But who didn't have a few nephews and those crying concubines? Weren't they also their family members?
Family visits were necessary!
Click, click, click...
The hands were counting down to the last second. The characters behind Qin Guan spun like a broken stopwatch. The numbers rose quickly.
"Crack"
Time was up!
The bidding button behind him accurately dimmed. Those who were a little slower couldn't make any more commands with their mouse.
The final number stopped at 88,888.
Forgive the world's most superstitious Chinese tycoons. Even their bids are so artistic.
As the most eye-catching character, it finally ushered in its final mission.
In a very ordinary Hong Kong mansion, a long-haired and pretty girl hugged her bearded father and kissed him hard.
Qin Guan! I'm coming!
At the same time, a young lad threw the mouse in his hand out!
“XXXX！”
It was obviously a loser's way of venting his anger.
He didn't care about the turbulent Hong Kong entertainment industry, which was as high as the Himalayas. By then, he had arrived at Sister Xue's place and met up with Chen Kexin's crew.
Qin Guan's team had set off from Beijing. They had a makeup artist, a wardrobe room, an assistant, a secretary and a professional manager. There were more than 20 people in the team. They appeared in front of all the Hong Kong filmmakers in a mighty manner.
To be honest, Sister Xue wouldn't have made so much effort if they had been in another country. Hong Kong was full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
They had always looked down on actors from the mainland, so they had not yet recovered from the decline of their own film industry.
As an experienced agent, Sister Xue knew all too well how snobbish they were. They had begged Qin Guan to come with them.
If they had let him come alone, Qin Guan would have learned what it meant to be helpless in the martial arts world.
Qin Guan looked curiously at the four men in black suits behind him. They were tall, short, fat and thin, but they all had a murderous aura about them.
Qin Guan moved closer to Sister Xue. "Are they my bodyguards? Where did you find them? "
"I found them for you when I left Beijing. They said it was a necessary gift for you to film in Hong Kong. "
Qin Guan was stunned. Sister Xue replied in an even lower voice, "A strong dragon can't beat a local snake. They're all from the mainland."
"Here, it's only a little space. It's enough to protect you and help you escape safely!"
Qin Guan didn't know anything about the Hong Kong entertainment circle, so he was very obedient. His friend had made such an arrangement, so it had to be reasonable.
The people who cared about him the most would never harm him.
As for escaping safely, it was like a joke to him. Director Chen Kexin, who had the most authority on the set of the film, had already walked over, surrounded by a large group of people.
