Chapter 240: Investors
Quan Yu put down his phone with a sigh and looked out the window. If he had a healthy body, he might take that step. Initially he only found Mo Li interesting, but as they interacted further, he slowly found himself drawn to her honest and sincere nature.
Suddenly Quan Yu’s phone rang. “Second uncle?” Quan Yu’s face gradually darkened. He turned to Ah Si. “We’re heading home now!”
Quan Yu was not at Beijing but that didn’t mean the people there could do anything they wanted.
…
Mo Li had just finished packing, she fulfilled her promise and was moving back home. When she was dragging her luggage out the door, Old Madam Mo was filled with reluctance. Suddenly, Mo Li’s phone rang.
“Hello, is this Mo Li?” A familiar voice came through. Mo Li was surprised by the caller. “Sister An Wan?”
…
A few days ago, Zhan Hai, Nie Lie and a few other well-known producers and investors from Huan Yu had a simple dinner together.
A producer brought up the topic of Mo Xiao. The second son of the Mo Family had started to gain contact with a few big production companies when he was overseas. It was rumored that the first project he’d do when he returned to China was to start a big movie project. However, no one knew which national entertainment company he’d work with, or if he’d start his own.
Currently, there were 3 big entertainment companies in the nation. There were Zhan Hai and Nie Li’s Huan Yu Entertainment; Gu Dong Gu Dong and Le Yun Entertainment at Beijing. These 3 companies had strong background and ample financial supports. Their bosses had global connection. They accounted for 2/3 of the Chinese movie and tv market.
An investor took a drag of his cigar and said, “In my opinion, you guys are being nervous for no reason. The Mo Family’s background is in real estate and microchip, they have no experience in the entertainment industry. It’ll take years before they can become a threat to Huan Yu.”
“But haven’t you heard? The second son of the Mo Family has been seen in contact with that Song Xin as well as the actress who has been on the rise for the past 2 years, Jing Zhen. However, I also heard that the kid ran into some problems on his way back to the country! A director accidentally let that titbit slip when he was chatting with me.”
Nie Li’s eyes swept that investor.?Song Xin has gained contact with Mo Xiao? No wonder when I offered her the olive branch, she rejected me immediately.
Director Zhang frowned. “Sounds like Song Xin is coming back to China. With regards to Jing Zhen, I did hear about her interest to move to Hollywood earlier but after she won the Asian Best Female Actor award, she seemed to have changed her mind.”
“In any case, we should assume that if either of them is to star in a project, it would be under that Mo Family kid.” A producer turned to Nie Li. “Vice President Nie, Huan Yu should put out a movie to compete with that kid.”
After He Sen’s death, Nie Li was immediately promoted to the position of vice president. Even though there was many negative voices, no one dared to openly challenge her.
Nie Li shook her head with a smile. “I don’t think there’s any female celebrity in the country that can compete with Song Xin’s star power and influence. We’ll just be humiliating ourselves if we try to.”
Everyone had to agree with Nie Li. Song Xin was more established than most actors. She was also a guaranteed box-office success. Her fame and charisma couldn’t be shaken by any B list actor.
“Speaking of which, Director Zhang, how is your Lady in the Snow coming along?”
“It’s almost done, but I beg you to stop stuffing random people into my project anymore. If it wasn’t for Mo Li, the project would be ruined. If not to give you face, I would have chased that Wen Xue out of my set already.”
The investor who sponsored Wen Xue revealed a salacious smile. “Oh, yes, her name is Wen Xue. I forgot. She’s such a firecracker in bed. Since I have taken something from her, I had to do her a favor back. Ol’ Zhang, if you’re interested, I can make some arrangements.”
“Tsk! What nonsense. Do you really think I’d fall for someone like that?” Director Zhang huffed. “Stop sending these people to me. I need to keep my set clean.”
A young director yawned and said plainly, “I heard that even though Wen Xue has been acting for years, she’s not as good as the girl from the Mo Family.”
“Little Tang, you heard right!” Director Zhang smiled and praised when he talked about Mo Li. She was a rare genius!
“Nie Li, you have a cash cow on your hands, you should take advantage of it.”
