Daily Intelligence System: Financial Independence-Chapter 380 - 180: New Intel: Old Du’s Fake Watch and the Special Item Holly Tree!
Jiang Tao briefly mentioned to Jiang Hai and Jiang Yi about the short drama being prepared by the Shanhe crew.
The short drama "Eavesdropping on Heartbeats, Adorable Kid Takes the Whole Family to Soar" is adapted from a popular female novel on Qidian Girls’ Network.
Jiang Tao, being a veteran of online literature, easily found the original work of this short drama.
At this point in time, when short dramas are experiencing explosive growth, there’s a good chance of a short drama adapted from such a popular novel becoming a hit.
Therefore, helping Jiang An’an secure a role this time is not only beneficial for Jiang Tao.
It also greatly benefits Jiang An’an herself, as well as her family!
If she can become popular with this drama, there will be more opportunities for Jiang An’an.
If she manages to break through with the short drama, her earning potential is quite strong!
Currently, in the domestic short drama scene, the top male and female actors can earn a daily salary of 30,000 to 50,000 yuan.
While this cannot be compared to the big movie stars with countless endorsements and commercials,
accumulating fame through short dramas might still open the door to the film and television industry in the future.
"Our An’an hasn’t studied acting or anything, can she really do it?"
Jiang Hai looked at Jiang Tao with an incredibly surprised gaze, bewildered by the question.
Once upon a time, Jiang Hai had also dreamed of rising from a background actor to a big star.
But that dream had shattered four or five years ago.
Among the hundreds of thousands of extras in the country, how many, like Zhou Liying and Wang Baoqiang, truly stand out?
After accepting reality, Jiang Hai left Huairou Film and Television Base and returned to a normal life.
Now, suddenly asked by Jiang Tao whether he wanted his daughter to pursue that path,
Jiang Hai actually didn’t want it, but he didn’t want to refuse too quickly and upset Jiang Tao.
So, he used a somewhat uncertain question.
Jiang Yi was initially taken aback by Jiang Tao’s question.
Then she recalled seeing An’an this morning, holding a copy of "Actor’s Self-Cultivation."
And when she asked Jiang An’an if she wanted to be an actor, her innocent yet poignant answer came to mind.
"Uncle Tao! I like being an actor!"
Jiang An’an suddenly interjected brightly, and when she mentioned wanting to be an actor, her bright eyes seemed to twinkle with starlight.
Jiang Tao looked at Jiang An’an, seeing her small face serious, her eyes glinting with determination.
"Dad, can I give it a try? It’d be great if I can succeed, but if not, we won’t lose anything, right?"
After answering Jiang Tao, Jiang An’an looked at her father, Jiang Hai, with maturity belying her young age.
Jiang Hai looked at his daughter and saw desire in her eyes.
"Well, okay then! Dad will take you to try it out when I have some time." He could not bear to crush his daughter’s confidence, so he replied with a smile and a nod.
"Thank you, Dad! Thank you, Uncle Tao!"
Seeing her father agree to let her audition, Jiang An’an’s little face lit up with joy. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
"I’ll drive you guys over tomorrow morning!"
"In the afternoon, Xiao Xue’s grandparents are coming over from our hometown, so I have to entertain them." Jiang Tao was quite attentive to Jiang An’an’s matter, worried about leaving anything to chance. He didn’t want to miss out on the Bo Le title and the 880,000-yuan prize money by a narrow margin.
"If Mr. Jiang has something to take care of, it’s fine, we can just take a cab." Jiang Hai, hearing Jiang Tao’s words, felt flattered and deeply touched by his enthusiasm.
Jiang Yi gazed softly at Jiang Tao; though she said nothing, her gratitude matched her brother Jiang Hai’s.
Every time Jiang Tao helped her and her brother’s family, she remembered it in her heart.
A kindness as small as a drop of water should be repaid with a spring. If the opportunity arises, she will definitely repay Jiang Tao.
Jiang Tao laughed, "It’s no trouble; it wouldn’t be convenient for you to go by yourselves. Plus, I kinda want to see it for myself."
"Well then... thank you, Mr. Jiang!" Jiang Hai was once again moved, looking at Jiang Tao with gratitude in his eyes.
"Wow, this prawn is so delicious~ Sister An’an, you have to try it."
"Mm-hmm, this crab tastes amazing too! Xiao Xue, you should try it as well."
Jiang Xue and Jiang An’an were busy attacking the food on their plates.
"Jiang Yi, Jiang Hai, you guys should eat too, while it’s hot."
"Mm-hmm."
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for the treat, and sorry for the expense."
"..."
After wrapping up the business discussion, everyone continued eating.
Xinrong Restaurant truly lived up to its Michelin Three Stars status, with every dish being the perfect blend of color, aroma, and taste.
The only slight downside was the portions were small, which wasn’t quite enough for big guys like Jiang Tao and Jiang Hai.
After finishing the meal, it was already past 9 p.m.
Jiang Tao drove his Mercedes G-Class to drop Jiang Hai and Jiang An’an back at Dongxindian.
Then he headed towards the Pingchang District.
During the day, Jiang Xue had been on the subway, on buses, and playing all day with Jiang An’an.
Once in the car, she immediately fell asleep in Jiang Yi’s lap.
Jiang Tao chatted softly with Jiang Yi in the back seat, taking over forty minutes to drive to Longze Garden under Jiang Yi’s building.
After the car stopped, Jiang Yi gently laid Jiang Xue down on the back seat, taking off her jacket to use as a pillow, showing care and kindness.
