Zheng Youcai was clearly in a tight spot, yet he still maintained such honesty. This made Shen Hanxing like him even more. Her original 30% favorability towards him increased to 50%, while the remaining 50% depended on his script.
“If you want to invest this mister, I’ll invest with you.” Wang Qin was like a little fan of Shen Hanxing. She followed her without hesitation. “Don’t worry, we don’t lack money.”
“Miss Shen,” Wu Yu gritted his teeth in jealousy. His expression was a little twisted. “You’re young, so you might not know much about this industry. Zheng Youcai’s film doesn’t appeal the market. It’s a waste of money for you to invest in him. If you want to get involved in this industry, why don’t you look at mine? I can guarantee that my films will sale, and their cost are not high…”
“You’re teaching me how to do things?” Shen Hanxing interrupted Wu Yu’s incessant self-recommendation, and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.
Wu Yu choked. This little girl looked young, but her aura was astonishing. He actually didn’t dare to act rashly for a moment.
“Hanxing, Wu Yu is an expert in this area. You’d better listen to the words of an expert.” Ji Mei frowned and advised, “After all, Wu Yu is a profitable film director. Unlike someone who doesn’t have any films that sale at all. So, many people are unwilling to invest in this person. You’re young and don’t understand. You think that those seniors don’t know what they’re doing? When it comes to investing, you should also observe how others do it.”
Ji Mei almost treated the money in Shen Hanxing’s hand as if it was hers. How could she bear to let her waste it?
“It’s a pity that I’m born with a rebellious streak. I don’t like to see how others do and listen to what others say. I like to go against the flow.” Shen Hanxing curled his lips into a smile and extended his hand towards Zheng Youcai. “Show me your script.”
Zheng Youcai’s fingers trembled slightly. He silently handed the carefully prepared investment application and the script to Shen Hanxing.
Shen Hanxing quickly flipped through it. She could see the man’s talent and ambition just from the simple story structure. This was undoubtedly an exceptionally good script because it involved the customs of various places. To make this film perfect, they had to shoot it at those places, which in turn increased the cost.
At first glance, it looked like a hefty investment, but it was actually reasonable. The budget had been lowered down after careful calculation. Shen Hanxing was initially unhappy with Wu Yu’s bullying attitude. She did not expect that after reading the script, she would find that it really made her eyes light up. Without hesitation, she made the decision on the spot. “I will invest in this series. Sixty million!”
The money that Shen Hanxing had borrowed from Ji Yan had earned some money during this period of time. Sixty million was over the half she had. This was a huge gamble.
Zheng Youcai raised his head in disbelief. He was suddenly hit by a huge surprise. His lips trembled and he could not say a word. His eyes were red.
“I will invest, I will invest too!” Wang Qin followed without hesitation. “I will invest thirty million!”
A ninety million investment in one go, it was definitely going to be a big production! Wu Yu was so jealous that his face turned red! Ninety million, that was 20 times the investment that he had pulled in!
Wu Yu held it in for a while, but he still could not hold it in. “Miss Shen, that’s a lot of money. Don’t you need to discuss it with your family? You might really lose all your money investing this person. You’d better discuss it with your family before making a decision.”
“That’s right.” Ji Mei was also heartbroken. She nodded and echoed, “Hanxing, even if we have money, we shouldn’t spend it carelessly. Why don’t you discuss it with Ji Yan?”
Ji Yan would definitely not allow her to use money to invest recklessly.
“This is my money. I don’t need to discuss it with anyone.” Since Shen Hanxing had made up her mind, she did not waver. “I’ve made up my mind. It’s useless to say anything.”
Even if she lost all her money in the end, she would still accept it. She could slowly earn back the money, but good projects were hard to come by. She did not want to miss it.
The other noblewomen could not help but be speechless. For a moment, they were a little jealous. Even if it was them, they could not throw out so much money so easily. That was sixty million! Why did it sound like it was not worth anything to this girl who came from the slums?
“Mrs. Liu…” A noblewoman couldn’t help but say sourly, “Mrs. Ji has the Ji family backing her. Of course, she doesn’t have to worry. Even if she were to lose all the money, Ji family would be able to afford it. However, Mrs. Liu, you just got divorced. Why do you have to go through so much trouble when you’re a woman with a child? It’s better for us women to behave ourselves.”
“Since you know I am divorced, why do you still call me Mrs. Liu? My surname is Wang.” Wang Qin was not happy, and she retorted.
