1666 Su Bei Is At The Top Of The Food Chain
Xu Zhiqin stopped her. “There’s no need to compete with her on who has more money. If one movie doesn’t work out, there’s still another one. Why waste money on her?”
“I had plans to invest in this movie to begin with,” Su Bei said. “It’s just that I didn’t want to spend too much of Lu Weijian’s money. After all, there are risks in investing. Now that someone is stepping on us, why shouldn’t we use it?”
Su Bei picked up the contract, brought her lawyer and finance officer, and said, “Zhiqin, come with us!”
When they entered the set, Wei Yuxin was drinking tea in a private lounge. The person in charge and some other relevant personnel were talking to her and serving her tea.
The Wei family was rich and pampered their daughter. They didn’t mind how she spent their money. Wei Yuxin was certain that Xu Zhiqin wouldn’t dare to bother He Xuyan with this matter, so she was fearless.
It didn’t matter if she earned money or not. Wei Yuxin just wanted to hurt Xu Zhiqin and let her know that the He family wasn’t a family she could afford.
Su Bei and Xu Zhiqin came over and went straight to the lounge where Wei Yuxin was.
“President Su, Zhiqin.” When the person in charge of the production team saw Su Lu coming in person, he immediately knew that Nirvana Entertainment would not let the matter rest so easily. He quickly welcomed him and said, “Let’s go to the side to discuss this matter.”
“There’s no need to talk about it elsewhere. Nirvana Entertainment is investing in this movie. Moreover, the female lead has to be chosen by us!” Su Bei threw out the contract in her hand. “We can sign it now!”
“Well…” Of course, the person in charge wanted as much investment as possible, but Wei Yuxin had already invested a lot. Now that Nirvana Entertainment was going to interfere, what should he do?
Su Bei looked at Wei Yuxin and said, “As far as I know, Miss Wei’s money is still overseas. It’s impossible to get it all in a short time, right? You can only give a deposit now, but Nirvana Entertainment can pay the full amount!”
Wei Yuxin didn’t expect that this ordinary-looking young man would stand up for Xu Zhiqin!
And what this young man said was completely true.
Su Bei continued, “Not only can Nirvana Entertainment provide funds, but we can also provide a filming venue, relevant publicity, and the cooperation of various personnel. Miss Wei is an American, so she can’t keep up with the rest. She’s also completely unfamiliar with this industry. I advise you not to waste the efforts of the entire production team just because of a moment of anger!”
“I can pay for it. And, of course, I can find suitable people for the publicity and to ensure the quality of the movie!” Wei Yuxin refused to admit defeat.
“But can you get the funds in time?” Su Bei asked.
Wei Yuxin was really stumped.
A large amount of money needed to be brought in from overseas. Wei Yuxin was just being impulsive this time. Naturally, she couldn’t bring in the money in a short time.
This really stumped her.
Su Bei said indifferently, “Miss Wei, you can do anything with that sum of money? Won’t it be good to eat a few more hamburgers in America?”
She gave a look. The lawyer and finance officer immediately appeared and went straight to the person in charge.
Su Bei had already explained her concerns and Wei Yuxin’s actions clearly. How could the person in charge not know which side he should take?
Wei Yuxin had only reached a preliminary verbal agreement with the production team. The production team hadn’t received any funds yet. It could be said that if this agreement was terminated now, the production team wouldn’t have to bear much legal responsibility.
After Su Bei’s reminder, Wei Yuxin could not continue to use money to fight for a moment of pride. She could not casually enter a field that she was completely unfamiliar with either.
“Zhiqin, stay. You’re getting your female lead role back.” Su Bei then said to the person in charge, “And I hope that all the disputes will stop. I don’t want to hear any related disputes in the future!”
The person in charge nodded quickly. The reason why the production team accepted Wei Yuxin’s investment was that the staff needed to survive.
Now that they could work with a professional company, why should they settle for an unstable investment?
Since Nirvana Entertainment had personally appeared, of course, the entire production team would not be half-hearted.
“Su Bei, thank you.” Xu Zhiqin sent her out gratefully.
“You’re my sister-in-law. Of course, I have to stand on your side. Besides, Wei Yuxin doesn’t make any sense,” Su Bei said with a smile. “But she’s not completely stupid. She hasn’t taken our photo and shown it to my brother or my parents. If that day really comes, I really want to see her slap herself in the face.”
Xu Zhiqin smiled. He Xuyan’s words rang in her ears. At home, Su Bei was at the top of the food chain. As long as Su Bei acknowledged her, she would be acknowledged by the entire family.
This made her more confident about the future.
…
He Xuyan’s new movie had been in preparation and had not been completely decided.
He had high requirements for movies and wanted everything to be perfect. This caused many companies that wanted to earn money to be unwilling to work with him in case they lost everything.
To He Xuyan, movies were not goods but works of art.
This time, his script used cutting-edge technology and unconventional. Hence, the investments were not completely confirmed.
He also wanted to rely on himself to complete his pioneering attempt, so he rejected Lu Heting and Su Bei’s investment. He planned to not rely on any external forces from beginning to end.
It was at this time that an investor approached him and expressed his willingness to try working with him to explore a new journey in film development.
In He Xuyan’s interaction with the other party, he realized that the other party’s attitude was very sincere, and he was also dedicated to the development of new movie technology.
Naturally, He Xuyan had a good chat with the other party. He did not refuse the other party’s kindness in inviting him to a banquet.
That night, Xu Zhiqin was changing her clothes in the company.
“Director He is bringing you to such an occasion. It’s obvious that he’s set his mind on you,” Xiao Ling said as she helped her change her clothes. “I really envy you, Zhiqin. Director He is handsome and manly. Countless people like him, but he doesn’t like anyone else at all. He only cares about you.”
Xu Zhiqin pursed her red lips and looked at her makeup in the mirror.
He Xuyan had said that he would wear a black suit, so she specially used red makeup to match him.
In the movie industry, Xu Zhiqin and He Xuyan had the same goal.
“Yes, with this diamond necklace on, the entire makeup look will be even more perfect.” Xiao Ling carefully put it on for her.
