850 Lu Man Treats Herself Like a Big-shot

The screenshot was a long one, and it had to be opened for the contents to be seen.

Friend: "Why did Li Zeyu and Lu Man not join The Performer? The two of them were the first and third in the Chinese Arts Championships, their results were very good. They will not participate, and it's only the second place, the fourth place, and the fifth place who are participating. This doesn't seem very nice."

Assistant Director: "Hai! Don't speak of it. I'm on fire when I mention it. Li Zeyu did not want to present unsatisfactory acting skills to the audience because of his physical condition, and he was unsatisfied with his acting skills, so he discussed with us that the program could not be done. We can all understand that, and this is him being responsible to the audience, to himself, and to our program group. Li Zeyu, a young child, can have this kind of ideological awareness. He is so strict with himself and has a sense of responsibility for performance. It is gratifying and admirable. Our production group must also support him. Both sides understand each other and agree with each other with great pleasure. And we have already told Li Zeyu that if there are any more programs in the future, we will definitely find him."

Friend: "I thought that Li Zeyu and Lu Man had discussed together and exited together. It seems like it's not like that?"

Assistant Director: "Of course not! We and Li Zeyu have a mutual understanding. But it's not the same with Lu Man. Lu Man is just coincidental. It just so happened that Li Zeyu withdrew at the same time."

Friend: "What's with Lu Man? I saw the video of her in the Chinese Arts Championships, her acting skills are not bad."

Assistant Director: "I'll tell you something, but you can't spread this."

Friend: "Where will I spread this to? Quickly, tell me the gossip."

Assistant Director: "Lu Man treats herself like a big-shot, haha."

Friend: "Her? A big-shot? The most she can be considered right now is a C-lister. She can't even be considered a B-lister. Right now, a lot of starlets are more famous than her. Even Jiang Yuhan, who always succeeds in drawing viewerships, no matter how high her fame or reputation, the money she earns per show is still stuck at the B-list level."

Assistant Director: "Exactly! Lu Man felt that since she had already filmed two movies, and they're both movies that have top box office sales, she is very great. Adding on the fact that she got first for the Chinese Arts Championships and had made three of the judges leave, she has become too arrogant. When she was talking about her fees for filming, she was really asking for too much, asking too high a price."

Assistant Director: "To tell you the truth, though we're working together with the Chinese Arts Championships by bringing the first five into our show, the five students do not get paid. Letting them participate in the show is, in itself, something good for them. Otherwise, right now, they really can't enter the show. The other students, including Li Zeyu, know about this and have no opinion on that. Yet Lu Man wanted two million yuan for the first episode. If she loses, then we just give her two million once, but if she manages to advance, it'll be lowered to one million yuan per show."

Friend: "F*ck, even Jiang Yuhan won't dare to ask for that, right?"

Assistant Director: "Honestly speaking, our show really invited Jiang Yuhan, and we are still discussing. The price that Jiang Yuhan asked for is not as high as that amount and we can accept it. It's a normal and acceptable price for her."

Friend: "That Lu Man is a bit too much. She's too arrogant."

Assistant Director: "Her pricing is secondary. She even asked us to promise that she'll win the competition. Haha, don't you think that she's so funny? Who does she think she is? Daring to directly control our show? Our show rejects faking results, and of course, we can't agree to her. So the talks fell through. Haha, I feel like she made trouble for the judges in the Chinese Arts Championships 'til she got first. Don't even know who she thinks she is, thinking that she can get first like that everywhere."
