Hua Jin said generously, “I’ll transfer it directly to your account!”

“Okay.” Liang Yin gave him her bank account number.

The man entered it on his cell phone. Moments later, Liang Yin’s phone beeped with an alert of incoming payment. Liang Yin picked up her phone and took a look. She received a text message notification that she had received a million yuan. Her eyes widened in shock!

“A mil… million!”

“Uh huh.”

“That much!?”

Liang Yin had never seen so much money in all her life, so she was dumbfounded.

A million! All that money, for the little filming that she had done? To her, this money was like a pie falling from the sky.

“You covered two episodes for me. I told you before, we’ll split the pay fifty-fifty. One million for two episodes.”

He grinned at her and added, “Besides, you’re a good actor. You’re worth the money.”

Liang Yin hugged her phone in surprise and happiness.

Hua Jin couldn’t help but laugh at her expression. “Does it feel like you’ve suddenly become a tycoon?”

“Haha! You know, some people in my hometown demolished a few hundred square meters of private property with a courtyard. Guess how much it cost?”

“How much?”

“800 thousand!”

The actor expressed surprise. “What kind of backwater is your hometown? Why does it cost only 800 thousand?”

“Anyway, it’s not far from the capital, but it’s been developed into a highway!”

After all, to Liang Yin, getting a million yuan for a little acting was undoubtedly like winning the lottery.

She stood up and patted Hua Jin’s shoulder generously. “Let’s go. I’ll treat you to pizza today!”

“Wow, Boss Liang is so generous!”

There was a western restaurant in the studio city. It offered good privacy through a private rooms-only set up. Most paparazzi wouldn’t be able to sneak in, so the vast majority of celebrities liked to dine at this western restaurant.

On the way, they ran into some celebrities. When they saw Hua Jin, they greeted him respectfully. Although he was not a veteran actor in the entertainment industry, his acting skills stood out among the new generation of good looking young actors. The producers and directors in the industry thought highly of him, and he had many acting contracts under his belt.

At the entrance of the western restaurant, they ran into the assistant director of “Heavy Snow”. Usually, in a crew, the assistant director would be in charge of casting.

The assistant director started lamenting when he saw Hua Jin. “Something’s happened in the crew recently.”

“What happened?” The actor was naturally concerned when he saw the assistant director looking troubled.

“Didn’t you know? The director got rid of Li Jing.”

“Got rid of?” The actor looked surprised. “Ah, who’s Jing Li, anyway?”

“Aiya…” The director knew that Hua Jin didn’t usually socialize closely with other actresses, so he simply mentioned, “The one who plays the Kokakuchō.”

“Kokakuchō… the aunty?”

Although Li Jing seemed young in appearance, she was in fact quite old. Hence, everyone in the production team called her “Aunty”.

“Why did they get rid of her?”

“She messed around in the production team and got pregnant. She disappeared from filming for a few days. Later, the director found out that she was pregnant and had gone for an abortion. Director Gu fired her in a fit of anger. Now, it’s been hard on me. I have to re-cast this Kokakuchō role. The better-known actors already have filming contracts. As you know, Director Gu hates actors and actresses who are involved in multiple productions. And many of those lesser known actors obviously have had plastic surgery on their faces and no affinity with the audience.”
