Chapter 102 - Red Envelopes

The public opinion on the internet had taken notice of “Beacon”. Director Zheng had also made use of this momentum to reach the top.

After “Beacon” was broadcast, it received unanimous praise from everyone.

The actors’ acting were on point, the script was logical, the director’s skills were profound, and the props were full of details. As soon as it was broadcast, it instantly became a blockbuster.

Therefore, after Director Zheng received the money, he immediately gathered everyone in the production team for a meeting.

The topic of the meeting was also very exciting: splitting the earnings!

Jiang Lu also learned that “Beacon” had made a lot of money, and the drastic difference almost made her tear up the lines in her hands.

However, she had already left the production team long ago, so she did not receive any notice from Director Zheng about the meeting. She could only ridicule in her small circle.

[I heard that ‘Bbeacon’ really picked up. Congratulations, everyone.]

[However, no matter how good the profits of the crew are, they will all go into the pockets of the producers and directors. They will not give any more to us actors.]

[Everyone has worked so hard for so long and it has been so hard. I feel that you guys are the biggest contributors to the success of ‘Beacon’ until now.]

This small circle was made up of some actors that Jiang Lu got to know when she was on the set of ‘Beacon’. Most of them joined the group because they liked Jiang Lu’s fame. Naturally, they all agreed with her.

[Sister Lu is right. It’s a pity that we are all small-time actors. Even if we don’t get any dividends, we can’t say anything.]

[Actually, Sister Lu has put in a lot of effort this time. If you hadn’t left the group halfway, this military medal would have been half of yours.]

[Sister Lu is really nice. It would be great if we could still film together again and be appreciated.]

[Yes, yes, Sister Lu. If you need anything, give me a call and I will rush over immediately!]

Jiang Lu’s vanity reached its peak when she heard their flattery. She immediately typed.

[Everyone must be joking. However, if I were the director and it was such a success this time, I would definitely give everyone a bonus. Only then would I not let down everyone’s hard work.]

However, this time, Jiang Lu did not receive a reply from everyone because they were stunned by the packages that they had just received.

The moment everyone arrived, Director Zheng immediately handed out red packets to everyone.

His many years of experience had told him that in the entertainment industry, only real money and silver were the magic weapons that could motivate people endlessly.

When the actors in Jiang Lu’s group saw the amount contained in the red packet, they stopped what they were doing and looked at Director Zheng in surprise. The money had far exceeded their expectations.

[Where are you guys?]

At this moment, Jiang Lu’s wechat message came in again. Everyone came back to their senses and replied one after another.

[Sister Lu, I’m sorry. Director Zheng held a meeting just now and I wasn’t looking.]

“Sister Lu, you’re really amazing. Director Zheng actually gave us a red packet. I took 500,000. It’s almost as much as my salary.”

“I also have 300,000. Director Zheng is really too generous.”

“We have so much. Those lead actors must have taken even more!”

“I’ll go and ask around.”

Jiang Lu’s expression immediately darkened. Her heart was filled with disgruntlement and resentment.

However, her emotions did not affect Director Zheng and the main cast’s good mood in the slightest.

Yu Wan opened the thin red packet and held out the light piece of paper with trembling hands. After repeatedly confirming the zeros behind it, her eyes reddened slightly and tears of excitement were left behind.

Eight million!

With this amount of money, not only could she repay Jiang Zhi’s loan, but she could also pay off her mother’s medical expenses and buy good nutrition for her mother.

All of this was because of Jiang Zhi. If it weren’t for her, she would still be the waitress serving dishes in the bar.

Yu Wan suddenly held onto Jiang Zhi’s hands, her eyes filled with gratitude.

“Sister Jiang, thank you. Thank you so much!”

Thank you for changing my life.

Jiang Zhi smiled slightly. The corners of her slightly raised eyes made her look even more seductive, and her red lips parted slightly.

“This is only our first step!”

Yu Wan could not help but be stunned. When she thought of the “Best Actress Award” that Jiang Zhi had once said, her heart almost jumped out of her chest. When she saw her confident look, her heart also calmed down.

“You’re right. I will always follow behind you and walk to that position together!”

Jiang Zhi patted Yu Wan’s head and waved her hand to open the red packet. When she saw the amount of money inside, her phoenix-like eyes were slightly startled. She turned her head to look at director Zheng.

Director Zheng actually gave her 20 million!

The two main leads were only worth 30 million. wasn’t she being given a little too much as the second female lead and double?

When Director Zheng saw Jiang Zhi’s expression, he shook his head slightly. Jiang Zhi’s news directly pushed the entire production team into the limelight. It was a wave of excellent publicity. If it weren’t for her.., “Beacon” would definitely not have achieved such results.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhi was no longer so hesitant and kept the check.

She was getting closer and closer to the goal of 50 million. She was even more confident now!

However, among the cast members of the production team, it caused intense discussions and was full of envy.
