Facing lie Meng’s questioning gaze, Yu Han fell silent.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing that Yu Han did not speak for a long time, He Meng was a little puzzled.
Under her urging gaze, Yu Han braced herself and said, “Sister Meng, there’s something I haven’t mentioned to you. It’s about who the sponsor of our drama is.”
“Didn’t you say it was a friend of yours?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYu Han laughed dryly. “Yes, he’s a friend of mine. It’s just that you happen to know this friend too.”
“I know him?” He Meng frowned. She tried to recall among all the friends that both Yu Han and she knew and was a rich second-generation heir.
She ran through the list in her mind. Her first reaction was to think of Yu Han’s two uncles, but then she overturned this guess. After all, if they were really her two uncles, Yu Han would not say that they were friends.
He Meng deduced and concluded that it was impossible, but it was the only possible answer. She looked at Yu Han in shock. “Could the friend you’re talking about be Best Actor Ji?”
Yu Han smiled and hurriedly gave her a thumbs up. “As expected of my Sister Meng. You’re so smart. You guessed the answer immediately.”
He Meng stood up from the sofa and looked at her in disbelief. “Alright, Yu Han. I realize that I still underestimated you. How did you do it?”
She recalled that the filming time of this drama was not long after Yu Han fell off the cliff. Hence, Yu Han said that she wanted to be grateful after Ji Jun saved her. In the end, her way of being grateful was to pull Ji Jun to invest in a television drama?
“I don’t understand how you can have such an unconventional and bold idea.”
Yu Han looked back at her innocently. “1 had no choice. After all, Bai Chao was in a hurry to get money back then, and I really liked this script. However, I was short of money at that time. Coincidentally, Ji Jun called at that time. After knowing about this, he said that he could try to invest in it.”
Yu Han lied half-truthfully. The more she spoke, the more confident she became. “I remembered the legend about Ji Jun in the industry. It was said that there was no project he liked that didn’t earn money, so I sent the script to him with this thought. 1 didn’t expect him to take a fancy to it immediately and say that he wanted to invest money in it. Then you know that he just saved me, right? Hence, I couldn’t reject him and agreed to this matter.”
However, He Meng did not let her off. “Why didn’t you tell me about such a big matter?”
If this had happened before she became Yu Han’s manager, He Meng would not have such a big opinion. However, this happened after she became Yu Han’s manager, and Yu Han still hid it from her. This made He Meng a little unhappy.
Yu Han used Ji Jun as a shield. “This is because Ji Jun said that it was a secret. Hence, other than Bai Chao and me, no one else in the production team knows about this.”
“Secondly.” She looked away guiltily. “Didn’t you tell me not to interact too much with Ji Jun? I was afraid that you would be unhappy, so I couldn’t tell you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe Meng didn’t know if she should be angry or laugh. She tapped her twice from afar. No wonder Lin Zi would come to the production team for a walk or two. At first, she thought that he was bored and came to visit. In the end, he was on a tour on behalf of the emperor and came to check on the progress as the proxy of the investor.
Fortunately, this drama was successfully filmed. Otherwise, if anything happened and Lin Zi caught it, it would not be so smooth.
Seeing that He Meng was silent and pacing around the living room, Yu Han probed softly, “So, Sister Meng, are we still investing in this project?”
He Meng turned around and glared at her. “Yes, why not?”
Just as Yu Han had said, Ji Jun’s investment legend was still very famous in the industry. Since he was optimistic about this project, it meant that the chances of this drama succeeding were still very high.
Why wouldn’t they do such a good thing if they had the chance to get some good deal following Ji Jun? Moreover, if they could really make this drama popular, their studio would be able to make a name for itself.
In the current era of streaming media, although there was profit to be earned from purely being an artist, the profit ratio was not too high. Hence, if they wanted their studio to have more say, it still had to involve film production.
If they could make a name for themselves in the first project, it would be very helpful to the development of the studio in the future. What’s more, it would make those old fellows at Starlight Entertainment shut up..
