Chapter 386: Book Fan
Translator: 549690339
As the original author and screenwriter of the movie, Uncle An naturally attached great importance to the children he wrote. It was rare to have a capable director like Director Chen, and he had also invited capable actors like Huang Bo and Chen Yiming. It was simply a match made in heaven. If the movie they produced did not become popular, heaven and earth would not tolerate it.
However, the capital chain had suddenly been cut off, and it had been cut off for five days.
How could he not be anxious?
“It’s fine. Old Liu said that CEO Li is a very kind investor. We were only delayed for a short while. Come, Little Wu, tell me, what kind of person is CEO Li? I forgot to ask Jiang Tao how old he is. How many people came?”
A few days ago, Chen Baichuan received a call from Old Liu, saying that they had finally secured an investment. The investor was a very generous boss. Not only did he receive 60 million yuan in one go, but he also handed over all the management rights of the movie to Old Liu.
Chen Baichuan was genuinely happy for his old friend.
In the end, Chen Baichuan was so happy that he casually mentioned the fact that he had cut off his funds. However, not long after, Old Liu called Chen Baichuan back and said that the boss who invested in their movie was willing to come to Chen Baichuan’s production team to take a look first. If it was good, Boss Li would invest in it.
Chen Baichuan really didn’t want to intimidate the investors. He just wanted to test if the investor Old Liu mentioned had the patience and was sincere about investing.
Assistant Wu immediately replied,”There are four people here. Three women and one man.” The boss was a young and beautiful girl who looked very easy to get along with.”
Assistant Wu said firmly.
“Young and beautiful? Could it be the rumored heiress in the entertainment industry?”The comments given by the industry insiders were not just that of a vase, but also that of an idiot.
After all, there were only a few people in the industry who had always wanted to make a comedy, let alone a high-level martial arts director who had turned from a martial arts director to a director. A simple-minded person like him had actually received an investment of 20 million yuan that exceeded his budget.
Many directors had their own thoughts, wanting to look for the legendary young lady to pull in investments.
In the end, after looking around, he found out that it was Chu Jixing’s second daughter, Chu Ranran, who was casually investing with her friends. It was impossible to contact her! As a result, the directors who were eager to make a move stopped thinking about it.
However, she did not expect that the legendary good-for-nothing rich second generation heiress would come out and invest again.
Once again, he directly invested 60 million yuan in Director Liu Renyi.
Each time, it was more generous than the last!
He also gave the director enough freedom and management power. This was as tempting as getting an investment. Any director would hope to have the final say at the end of their movie.
“Director Chen, you’ll know when you go over and take a look. I don’t know if she’s an idiot or not, but she’s really beautiful. She’s much prettier than the female lead at the end of the show.”Assistant Wu said truthfully.
“Then let’s meet first.”
Chen Baichuan nodded and walked over with Uncle An and Assistant Wu.
The table that was originally set up for the actors was filled with all kinds of fresh and cut fruits, snacks, and tea. A man and three women sat side by side. The three women were all good-looking, especially the girl in the middle. She was so beautiful that it was as if she could remember her for the rest of her life.
Chen Baichuan walked closer and saw a familiar face.”Second Miss Chu, you’re here too! I knew it. Old Liu said it was someone I might know.”
So it was Chu Chen’s biological daughter, Chu Ranran. Then the prettiest one in the middle should be the kind and generous CEO Li that his old friend had mentioned?
“This must be Li Muyao, President Li? Hello, I’m the director of the Tomb Robbers, Chen Baichuan. This was Uncle An, the original author of the tomb raider novel and one of the screenwriters of the movie.
I’m sorry, I was busy filming just now and couldn’t come over immediately. I’m really sorry for my lack of hospitality. Please forgive me.”
Chen Baichuan had just sat opposite Li Muyao when his occupational disease acted up.””CEO Li, have you ever thought of entering the entertainment industry? Our production team has a good role that suits President Li’s image very well.”
This wasn’t the first time Li Muyao had been invited into the entertainment industry, but it was the first time she had been invited by the director himself. It could be said that she was a little flattered. When Chen Baichuan mentioned the role that suited Li Muyao very well in Grave Robber, Li Muyao immediately guessed who it was from Grave Robber. She smiled and said, “Is Director Chen talking about Boss Yuan from the antique shop?”
“That’s right! It seemed like Boss Li was a fan of grave robbers? Uncle An, come over quickly and meet your fan, Director Li. He’s also an investor who’s interested in investing in our movie. “Chen Baichuan nodded at Li Muyao and turned around to pull the slightly plump Uncle An over.
He also agreed with his old friend Liu Renyi’s words. Li Muyao was indeed an easy person to get along with. It was obvious from his face that he was not the legendary idiot or vase.
“Hello, Uncle An. My name is Li Muyao and I’m a fan of yours. Can I have your autograph later? I heard that you would be here today, so I specially came here to ask for your autograph. My three younger brothers and a friend are also your fans, so they prepared so many sets of books.”
The original author’s autograph was completely different from a newly bought book.
His two younger brothers had one set, Xiao Cangshu had one set, Huo Jiling had one set, and Li Muyao had one set. The five of them had one set each, so there was no extra.
“Hello, thank you and your brothers and friends for your love. Even if you don’t have a new book, I can sign it and send it to you.”
Uncle An was a more reserved person. He would talk more when facing people familiar with Director Chen and the others.
However, when faced with strangers like Li Muyao and the others, even if they were his own fans, he couldn’t be enthusiastic. In fact, he was even a little restrained.
“Yes, yes, I brought a new book. When we’re done with business, I’ll call the driver to send it in.”Li Muyao asked with a smile.
“Of course. CEO Li, are you investing because you like the book Tomb Raider?”Uncle An asked nervously.
“One reason is that I like tomb raiding. Another reason is that I think Director Chen’s movie will definitely be popular. Plus, Ranran introduced that the actors you invited are all capable.
He thought that investing in tomb raiding should be a good business project.”
Indeed, for Li Muyao, the appearance of tomb raiding could be said to be the right time, place, and people.
Li Muyao had just signed the investment contract with Director Liu Renyi and the others when she received a call from Chen Baichuan that two-thirds of the movie had been filmed and needed investment.
