Within two hours of lunch, Li Muyao signed the contract with Chen Baichuan’s crew. The 30 million yuan was also transferred to Huang Yuying’s laptop, which was connected to a wireless network card.
With Huang Yuying and Jiang Chao’s professional work skills, the matter was handled smoothly.
Chen Baichuan, Uncle An, and the producer sent Li Muyao and the others to the car. After the car disappeared, the producer wiped the non-existent sweat off his face and forehead.”Hu! I’m suffocating! Hahahahaha. Oh my god!
This CEO Li was too easy to talk to. He was not like an investor in the entertainment industry.
He’s generous, doesn’t delay, and has special confidence in us.
If I didn’t see these contracts in my hand and the text message on your phone, I wouldn’t have believed it. It was like a dream.”
Chen Baichuan nodded.” Yeah, I’m still feeling weak.” He felt like a bad uncle who cheated a little girl and got her 30 million yuan just like that.
No wonder Old Liu was so happy even though he was in charge of the entire production team and only had a small share. Now I can understand how Old Liu and the others feel.”
Li Muyao’s straightforwardness and efficiency were completely beyond their imagination. Initially, Chen Baichuan saw that Li Muyao was young and didn’t understand the rules of the entertainment industry, so he told her frankly that she might not pass the trial and might lose money. In the end, this girl wasn’t worried or afraid at all. She said that she liked the contents of the book about grave robbing.
As long as the content of the movie wasn’t changed too much, Li Muyao was looking forward to it. Therefore, she supported the novel she liked, even if it was a loss.
To sum it up, I have money, I’m willing to spend money to buy my happiness!
“However, Uncle An is still present. If CEO Li wasn’t a fan of Uncle An’s books, the investment today might not have gone so smoothly. “Usually, when investors came to invest in a film crew, they would have to put in a lot of effort, such as asking for some benefits after the investment or asking for a certain amount of shares.
Or perhaps he had to pretend to be a boss.
Unlike Li Muyao, who had divided the amount and guaranteed that the profit share data given to her by the film crew was true and effective, Li Muyao didn’t care. It was just that the contract clearly stated it.
“No, no.”
Uncle An quickly shook his head. He could naturally tell that Li Muyao really liked his novel about tomb raiding, but she also really liked it and was looking forward to making a movie about tomb raiding. However, he didn’t dare to take all the credit for it.
People’s hearts also scattered for a few days. Now that we have money, let’s hurry up and get the last third of the drama done. Boss Li said that if the movie is good, even if it doesn’t make money, she’s willing to continue investing in our series. She’s even willing to invest in the full amount of the sequels.” Just thinking about it made his mood surge.
The producer’s reminder got everyone into action. When they returned to the set, everyone had smiles on their faces. Chen Baichuan even took the loudspeaker from Assistant Director Jiang Tao and shouted three times into the studio,””Everyone, let’s get to work. We’ve pulled in another 30 million! Now that we have money, let’s cheer up and do it!”
When they came to Little Shadow City, Li Muyao and Chu Ranran caught up on sleep and slept the entire way.
When they returned, Huang Yuying was the one who was feeling sleepy. She leaned against Jiang Chao and fell asleep almost as soon as she got into the car.
Therefore, when Chu Ranran spoke to Li Muyao, she lowered her voice. “Sister Yao, are you really that optimistic about the movie grave robbing? Director Chen and the others had already said that they might not pass the trial.
There was even a high chance that it would fail. Since it was so clear, why did Sister Yao still want to invest?
You only got 20% of the 30 million yuan investment, and that’s before tax. Sister Yao, you’re really at a loss.”
Chu Ranran really didn’t think that tomb robbing was worth investing in. Her father and stepmother didn’t think much of it. Moreover, during lunch, Chu Ranran took out her phone and sent a message to several old friends of her mother in the company, asking them to help find out the cause and effect of tomb robbing. In the end, Chu Ranran felt that she shouldn’t have accepted Li Muyao’s investment.
“We’ll only know if it’s a loss after the movie is finished. Moreover, I believe in Director Liu and Director Chen’s ability and vision. Although I don’t understand the investment rules of the entertainment industry, I’m investing in grave robbing. My expectation for it isn’t to earn much money for me, but to support the novel I like to turn into a movie.”
He also wanted to verify some of the things that Li Muyao wanted to know.
“Alright, Sister Yao, as long as you’re happy.”
Chu Ranran also knew that it was useless to say anything else. After all, Li Muyao had already transferred the 30 million yuan to Director Chen Baichuan on the spot. There was no way she could get it back no matter what.
The two of them stopped talking and quietly closed their eyes to rest.
The first thing Li Muyao did when she got back to the Huo family mansion was to run upstairs to see if Huo Jiling had woken up. She asked the nanny and the doctor, but Huo Jiling didn’t even move a finger.
Li Muyao was disappointed again. She washed her hands and started to massage Huo Jiling.
Huang Yuying still felt tired after getting out of the car, so she went to the guest room with Jiang Chao to rest.
As for Chu Ranran, she ran to the guest room where she had rested last time. She took out her phone and called Cai Mao. The first thing she said was to complain about Li Muyao’s impulsive investment today.”Cai Mao, are you listening to me? Sister Yao, she was really too impulsive today. Grave robbing was not a good investment for a movie project at all.
Unfortunately, Sister Yao didn’t listen to my advice at that time. Sister Yuying and her husband only listened to Sister Yao the whole time.”
Cai Mao disagreed with Chu Ranran’s words and retorted, “Chu Ranran, are you in the wrong direction? That’s my Sister Yao’s money. She can invest in whichever she wants.
Even if she really loses everything, she still has me, her younger brother, to spend money on her.
I asked you to go over to play with my Sister Yao and make her happy, not to be a housekeeper and control my Sister Yao’s actions and thoughts. You still have the nerve to call me and complain about my Sister Yao.
What an ingrate!
Since you don’t believe in Sister Yao’s judgment, you shouldn’t have followed her to invest. To think that my Sister Yao treated you so well and even took you in. In the end, you turned around and ran to my younger brother to say bad things about my Sister Yao.
Who gave you the face to care so much?
Today is Sister Yao’s birthday.
Whatever Sister Yao says or does, just listen to her. As long as she’s happy and doesn’t kill or set fire, she can do whatever she wants.. Don’t you understand this?”
