Chapter 377: Wrap-Up Banquet
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The days passed like flowing water. Yu Han finished filming the remaining scenes in “Midsummer’s Time” and the production team finally welcomed the end of filming.
This was Yu Han’s first female lead drama and also her first television drama as a producer, so Yu Han valued it quite a lot.
On the day the production team finished filming, she ordered a huge cake from her own pocket and sent all kinds of desserts to the production team. She also generously gave the actors and staff a red packet each.
Although it was not a lot of money, everyone was still very happy to receive Yu Han’s kind intentions.
After the wrap-up ceremony, everyone went to the hotel for a wrap-up banquet.
There was no need for Yu Han to pay for this meal. Instead, as the investor, Ji Jun transferred the money directly to Bai Chao’s account and let him foot the bill.
Bai Chao was not petty either. Seeing that Ji Jun was generous, he ordered a few tables of good dishes according to this amount of money and made everyone eat very happily. In the end, both the host and the guests were happy.
The wrap-up banquet was coming to an end. After many people had their fill, they had already left the hotel and returned to their respective homes. Bai Chao, who had been forced to drink a lot, drifted to the seat beside Yu Han with a wine glass and sat down. He said with a bitter expression, “Little Yu, I was busy filming previously, so I haven’t asked you. You said before that you wanted to set up a studio. How is it now?”
As for the progress of the studio’s preparations, He Meng had been doing the relevant procedures recently. The results were not bad at the moment. She had already obtained her business license yesterday and the studio was almost done packing up.
According to He Meng and Yu Han’s discussion, the original renovation of the cafe was basically retained. Currently, there were not many people in their studio, so they only needed to remove the tables and chairs on the second floor and replace them with a set of office tables and chairs. With the corresponding office facilities, they could basically satisfy their office needs.
As for the first floor, other than removing a portion of the tables and chairs, the bar counter and the entertainment area were basically kept. They could also be considered the rest area and entertainment area of their studio. This way, the employees could eat and drink coffee there.
Anyway, Lang Yu’s coffee brewing technique had been trained. He could make the best use of it when the time came.
When Bai Chao heard that their studio was almost ready, he rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, “Then when are we signing the contract?”
Yu Han did not understand. “Why are you in such a hurry? Are you in a hurry to be exploited?”
An embarrassed smile appeared on Bai Chao’s face. Anyway, Yu Han had witnessed him lose face, so Bai Chao did not hold back in front of her and confessed his tragic situation.
“I don’t have money in my pocket, and I don’t have a place to stay.” When he was filming, he could still use his identity as the director to stay in the hotel arranged by the production team for the staff. However, now that the filming was over, he couldn’t be thick-skinned enough to use the work funds for his personal use and continue to stay in the hotel.
Initially, according to the plan, he would temporarily stay with a friend after the filming of the television drama ended. He thought that after Yu Han’s studio was established, he would sign a contract and get his first month’s salary before looking for a house.
In the end, he did not expect his friend to ignore their friendship and suddenly say that he wanted to move in with his new girlfriend, so he had no place to place a third wheel like him.
Hence, Bai Chao could only think of another way. He sighed and said, “I thought that if I sign the contract now, I can at least go to our studio and find a corner to bunk in. This way, I won’t be exposed on the streets.”
When Yu Han heard that this future director was actually living such a bitter life, her heart ached for him. “You still have to look for Sister Meng for the signing of the contract. After all, she’s in charge of human resources. However, if you really have nowhere to go, I can help you find a house for you to transition.”
She knew that although Bai Chao looked down and out, he was still quite ambitious. Hence, she added, “But I’m not helping you rent a house for nothing. If you feel bad, I’ll deduct the money from your salary in the future. Or you can return the money to me when you become rich one day. Don’t worry, I’ll charge all the interest then.”
However, Bai Chao was still sober despite the alcohol, so he rejected her firmly. “1 haven’t done my work yet. How can I let you pay in advance? If the studio can’t do it, I’ll think of other ways.”
In Bai Chao’s opinion, Yu Han had already done him a huge favor by investing in this movie and building a relationship with Best Actor Ji for him..
