“That’s right!” The people around had been dissatisfied with Chu Xun for a long time. They quickly chimed.
“You, you…” Chu Xun was furious. She glared at Luo Xi fiercely before pulling out her phone to make a call.
“Dad, someone is bullying me! Yes, right here in the crew. I want you to withdraw that five million investment. See how they can continue to keep filming! Hmph, I don’t like this small production anyway. It’s lowering my status,” she said with a look of disgust.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Leng Minxing received a message from Xiao Hei.
He glanced at it, his eyes narrowing dangerously, and called Xu Guan over.
…
Just invested five million, and she was acting so arrogant?
Luo Xi scoffed.
Any piece of her jewelry was worth more than that, okay?
After ending the call, Chu Xun looked smugly at the director’s grim expression. “Hmph, my dad said he’s withdrawing the investment. Let’s see what you can do now. You offended me, so you deserve this! Forget about your future in the entertainment industry, especially you!” She glared at Luo Xi.
Just as she finished speaking, the director’s phone rang.
Chu Xun’s smile grew even more smug.
The director answered the call, his face filled with anger. After hearing something on the other end, his expression shifted from anger to confusion, then to shock. “Invest, invest fifty million?”
“What fifty million?”
Everyone was buzzing about this news.
Chu Xun’s smile faded as she frowned at the director. She felt a bit confused.
The director nodded repeatedly before hanging up. He then said excitedly, “The headquarters just informed me that the general manager of Fengyun Entertainment wants to invest fifty million in our drama, but only if Miss Luo Xi is the female lead!”
“Oh my god, Fengyun Entertainment!”
“Isn’t that one of the top entertainment companies in Yun City?”
“Yes, yes, fifty million! That’s incredible! What do we even need that much money for in this drama?”
The crowd jumped in joy.
Chu Xun’s expression began to crack.
One moment, she had just told her father to withdraw five million, and the next second someone was investing fifty million?
Did she mishear, or was the director going mad?
Standing nearby, Chu Mei and Zhou Xun were both stunned.
Luo Xi wasn’t even an actress from Fengyun Entertainment. Why would their general manager invest so much in her?
Not only were they shocked, but Luo Xi was also taken aback. Fengyun? Could it be Ouyang Xuan?
Why would Ouyang Xuan suddenly invest and specify her as the female lead? Was this arranged by Leng Minxing?
Luo Xi was puzzled.
As everyone celebrated for a moment, they turned their schadenfreude toward the now grim-faced Chu Xun.
Well, look who’s pretending now.
The director’s previously dark expression turned stern. He looked at Chu Xun disdainfully and said, “Miss Chu, since you dislike our crew so much and have withdrawn your investment, I won’t hide anything from you. Your acting skills are truly terrible. If it weren’t for the higher-ups insisting on casting you, someone like you wouldn’t even be on my options. So, please leave. The door is right there. Goodbye!” he said bluntly.
Fifty million? They could hire any actor they wanted, not just a spoiled young lady like this!
The crowd stifled their laughter.
Chu Xun was furious, her face turned red as she snorted coldly, “Just wait and see!”
Just wait and see? Now that Fengyun Entertainment was investing in them, they had a solid backing. The Chu family’s entertainment company couldn’t compete with them, so what were they afraid of?
Once Chu Xun left, everyone cheered.
