Chapter 199 She was an old lady with principles! (3)

Actors nowadays made pretty good money. A film emperor such as Meng Yan himself could easily make upward of 20 ~ 30 million yuan for one movie. His compensation for a single year on top of his income from being a spokesperson for a few brands could easily be upward of 100 million yuan a year.

That being said, while actors make a lot, they also have huge expenses. And then, theres also taxes. Each industry has their own downsides. Nevertheless, this was still a very profitable field after all. It was only that a few would make it to the top of the pyramid.

Zhang Xiyings hope to get onto the large screen didnt happen last time, but things had gone very well for her in terms of television shows.

Being tied to Meng Yan, even her popularity had gone up quite a bit this year. Her topicality has remained high, and she would even go onto the most trending list from time to time. She had maintained a healthy exposure to the public.

As such, Lin Yiyi wasnt surprised at all that Zhang Xiyings compensation had gone up to 500,000 yuan per episode.

The commercial value of Meng Yan and Zhang Xiying being a couple was definitely 1 + 1 > 2.

With both of their income combined, it would not be difficult for them to afford the penalty.

But for sure itd be painful for them to payout such a large amount.

Thats income for 3 ~ 5 months of hard work!

Okay! Lin Yiyi nodded with alacrity. I will talk to the production team about this. In addition, this matter of Zhang Xiying leaving the cast, you will have to get her to agree to it. Your words dont count.

Get Zhang Xiying to agree to it. That would be worse than killing her!

Meng Yan frowned again.

Coming to the Lins was like a huge battle that he had to fight through, but there would be another one waiting for him when he returned.

It didnt take long for Lu Xun to find out about Meng Yans visit.

He even took the opportunity to take over the job of their Planning Department and went over to Xinri Media along with Executive Assistant Zhou.

The main purpose of Executive Assistant Zhou were the contracts that he was currently carrying.

After all, the boss used work as an excuse to sneak out. So how would he be able to convince the others if he didnt at least get his share of work done?

But Boss Did you know that all of the employees already had a pretty good idea about your personal life?! Your attempt to cover it up is useless!

Tossing Executive Assistant Zhou over to Tao Jiahui to talk business, Lu Xun strolled over to Lin Yiyis office.

Lin Yiyi knew why Lu Xun was there as soon as she saw him.

Smiling at him relaxingly, she said, I see youve found out.

Found out what? He was still trying to play dumb.

He was here shortly after she had stepped into her office, and he had the audacity to play dumb?

It must be Housekeeper Zhangwho had snitched on her!

She was already used to Housekeeper Zhang being a spy. This was, by far, not the first time.

The only difference was that she used to just spy for Ms. Lin Ping. And now, theres also Lu Xun.

Housekeeper Zhang made a bad secret agent!

At the same time, Housekeeper Zhang, who had no idea that her identity as a double agent had been exposed, was making an international call on her cellphone.

Ms. Lin Ping had told her repeatedly to keep an eye out on Lin Yiyi. Everything must be reported to the empress, especially when it has to do with romance.

Housekeeper Zhang had always been a loyal one who gave it her best at everything that she did.

She was an old lady with principles!
