I'll Add Points To All Things

Chapter 735: Is His Identity Going To Be Exposed?

As the investor and major shareholder of the production team, Su Yang had a lot of say in the matter. As soon as he mentioned it, the production team held a meeting overnight to investigate the matter. In the end, they listened to Su Yang’s request unconditionally.

Since Su Yang was a major shareholder and was willing to take on this risk, there was no need for the production team to do such revealing scenes. After all, they did all those things to increase their profits.

Along with that, Su Yang looked through the entire script and deleted some extremely erotic scenes that were unfavorable for Han Yi’s development. For example, sex scenes, kissing scenes, etc... Finally, Han Yi’s future development became flawless.

Of course, when Su Yang was deleting those scenes, he had Little Hus verify them one by one to ensure that the changes would not affect the movie’s profits.

Truth be told, the reason why Su Yang did all these was because he was responsible for his employees. Furthermore, he was confident that these would not affect the ratings of the TV series.

However, in the eyes of the film industry and most of the crew, it did not seem like that was the case...

For example, amongst the production crew of “The Legend Of Wu Zetian”, many of them attributed his actions to... Jealousy and overprotection.

“Have you guys heard? All our costumes have been redesigned and we’ve been asked to cover up the chest area more.”

“Huh? Really? Why?”

“I heard that the investor was dissatisfied with the outfit being too revealing, so he asked the crew to change it.”

“The investor is not satisfied with the clothes being too revealing?” The crowd was shocked. “When has the investor become so kind?”

An insider from the production team said, “Of course he’s not that kind. I heard that our investor seems to have a close relationship with the female lead. So, after seeing the photo, he got furious and directly ordered it to be changed.”

“Female lead? Who? Sister Bing?”

“No, it’s Han Yi. Didn’t you know that she brought funds to join the crew and kicked Sister Bing out?”

“Huh? When did this happen? Han Yi pushed Sister Bing away?”

“That’s right. I heard her boss spent 200 million yuan to get her the female lead.”

“Damn! He’s so rich! If only I had such a good sugar daddy.”

“Han Yi is so lucky. I’ve long heard that her boss is her fan. At the time, I thought it was fake, but now, it seems like that’s not the case.”

A few things were linked together and the whole crew spread it like it was true. Even Han Yi herself ended up hearing about it.

In the nanny van, Han Yi laid on the chair, reading the script while her mind was in a mess.

As a female celebrity, unless it was for publicity, no one would be willing to have any scandals, especially with their boss.

After all, when it came to gossiping with male celebrities, news articles could use positive terms such as “dating” or “getting married because of the TV drama.” But, when it came to dating the boss, most people only used words like “sugar daddy” or “opportunist.”

Anyway, none of those words were pleasant.

Han Yi’s previous boss was Sister Mi. As both of them were women, she had never been troubled like this before. However, she did not expect to meet Su Yang right after she left the company, which caused her to be involved with two scandals in a row.

Even though she knew that Su Yang was not to blame, Han Yi still felt uncomfortable.

She thought about it for a while, but since she could not focus on the script, she called her assistant over.

Her assistant was a very cute girl. She was brought over from Sister Mi’s company. The two had been working together for more than three years, and Han Yi was very familiar with partnering with her, so when she left her job, she took her assistant with her.

Calling her assistant over, Han Yi said to her, “Xiao Tu, help me ask around in the production team about what exactly happened when I brought money into the production team.”

Previously, Han Yi had heard many people from the production team talking about this matter. However, Su Yang did not tell her, so she did not know the whole story. Hence, she wanted to ask about the whole process.

In the end, who knew that Xiao Tu knew about her question. Xiao Tu said, “Sister Yi, after I joined the group with you, I also heard about this, so I secretly asked around.”

“The original female lead for this project was Sister Bing, she even had shares in the production company. Therefore, Sister Bing’s female lead was almost guaranteed. The only problem was that the total investment for this movie is a little too big. If the production company takes responsibility for it, the pressure and risks are too high, so they’ve been looking for joint ventures.

“In the end, our Mr. Su took a fancy to this project and found out about the difficulty the production team was facing. So. he immediately offered to invest in it, but requested that you be the female lead.

“After several rounds of negotiations, Mr. Su finally decided to invest more than 100 million yuan in half the shares. He then spent 50 million yuan to buy out the other 10% of the company’s shares and became a major shareholder of the show.

“This also allowed him to get rid of Sister Bing so that you get the female lead role.”

When she said this, Xiao Tu’s eyes were sparkling. She held her hands in front of her chest and said with a love-struck expression, “Mr. Su is like a domineering president in an idol drama. For you, he’s willing to spend money without a care.”

Han Yi was speechless.

Hearing the details from her assistant, Han Yi’s face did not show any infatuation or happiness.

Han Yi was a very smart woman. She knew that everything in the world was based on cause and effect.

‘Su Yang has spent 200 million yuan just to get me the female lead role. Unless he could predict that this TV drama would be a huge hit when he looked through the project, he couldn’t possibly have invested so much.

‘Also, because the success rate of this project is too low, there’s a high chance of him losing money after investing so much.

‘But then again, who in the world would be able to be so sure of their judgement? There’s no such thing as being able to predict the future after all.

‘So, there’s only one possibility why he’s taken such a huge risk and invested in this project... He did it for me.

‘Then, what’s he trying to achieve?

‘So that I would become loyal to the agency?

‘Honestly speaking, I don’t believe it.

‘How long would I have to work to earn 200 million yuan for the agency?

‘So, if it’s not so that I could make him some money, there’s only one possibility left...’

At that thought, Han Yi frowned.

If it were any other female celebrity, they would probably be extremely happy to know that their boss valued them so much.

However, Han Yi was only worried. ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world. So, since my boss has sacrificed so much for me, how... How am I supposed to repay him in the future...

‘Sigh...’

...

Actually, Su Yang was not very clear about what was happening within the production crew of “The Legend Of Wu Zetian”. At the moment, he didn’t have the time to deal with the trivial hundreds of millions of yuan worth of business. Instead, he was only focused on the happiness of producing the glass phones.

Ever since he had the [Lightning Battery], Su Yang’s glass phone manufacturing factory seemed to have gone into overdrive.

A Lightning Battery could offset the raw materials for 100 glass phones. So, 20 batteries a day would be equivalent to 2,000 glass phones.

Ever since Janet threw the glass phone to Bogor, Bogor had been hit with thunderstorms everyday and Dagger Girl had been going to Bogor through the virtual space to create Lightning Batteries for Su Yang.

After a few days, he had saved up 80 Lightning Batteries. Other than Su Yang keeping one for himself, he had produced a total of 7900 glass phones.

According to Su Yang’s estimation, these 7,900 glass phones could increase the number of coins he earned by at least 7,900. Best case scenario, he might be able to receive 20,000 to 30,000 coins as well.

Su Yang was excited that he could expand his career, earn more coins and increase the number of people influenced. He felt that he had found a sustainable path.

Therefore, he had Janet return to Shanghai overnight after arriving at Xishuangbanna and head to Haikou again.

With three cities with more thunderstorms as backups, Su Yang’s production of Lightning Batteries had stabilized.

After things stabilized, Su Yang started to make plans for the domestic market. Sometimes, good products did not necessarily mean that they could sell well. If they wanted to sell well, they needed marketing, channels, sales networks and so on.

Furthermore, Su Yang also needed money to invest in TV dramas and movies. Hence, Su Yang took back the 5.2 billion yuan that he had earned from Hong Kong and transferred 1.2 billion yuan to China. He intended to use it to set up the domestic market and invest in various projects.

As a man of his word, when Su Yang transferred the money, he naturally followed the agreement and transferred the money back to the five banks led by Mr. Kong.

Back then, when Su Yang wanted to transfer the money to Hong Kong, the five banks had put in a lot of effort. Therefore, Su Yang would not treat them unfairly. He would not use too much of his money for the time being, so he left the money in those banks.

For those banks, this was like a pie falling from the sky. First, they received a few hundred million yuan worth in foreign currency and then they received another few hundred million yuan in savings. Hence, they had completed more than half of their quota in just a few seasons. This made the presidents of those banks laugh even in their dreams.

Even though they were laughing, they were still curious because Su Yang had just transferred out 1.6 billion yuan half a month ago, so how did he manage to transfer most of it back in such a short time?

‘Is it possible that he’s... Made a loss?’

They thought about it and realized that it made sense. ‘Su Yang first transferred 1.6 billion yuan out and deposited 1.2 billion yuan in return, so he’s made a loss of 400 million yuan. Financially speaking, it’s a normal amount for anyone who’s trying to cut their losses. This does make sense.’

Hence, this led them to confirm one more thing. There’s no concern if the rich spend their money on eating, drinking and having fun with women. However, it’s dangerous if they begin gambling or going into entrepreneurship, especially the latter.

A rich second-generation heir would at most spend a few million yuan a year on eating, drinking and sleeping with women, but he would not be considered to be squandering his parents’ wealth. However, once they get into entrepreneurship, they would have to spend hundreds of millions of yuan continuously. Other than the richest men, no one could possibly afford to sustain such a lifestyle.

Just as they were lamenting about Su Yang’s squandering, the major financial institutions in Hong Kong started to research the entire Hong Kong Stock Exchange’s tragedy.

As a place where capitalism was highly developed, every move made by the financial market was very moving. Since ’97, Hong Kong had not experienced such a bloodbath.

Especially when the Xinli Education incident had brought along too many suspicions, plus it did not seem to fit the operation style of a capital giant. Instead, it was more like a new type of financial attack. Therefore, the major organizations in Hong Kong paid close attention to this incident and started conducting a professional review and research.

Because Su Yang and Wei Lin’s massacre of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was a spur of the moment idea, there were many clues left behind. For example, the transfer of funds to the records, the creator of these accounts and the final flow of funds.

Therefore, after more than a week of research, several well-known financial institutions in Hong Kong jointly published an article called ‘The sorrow of Hong Kong’s online education sector, who took away 100 billion yuan worth of market value (1)’

The title of the article matched Hong Kong’s style, exaggeration, shamelessness and focused on headlines.

However, it had to be said that the people of Hong Kong were convinced by this. Therefore, when this article was published, it immediately caused a huge uproar in Hong Kong.

From a third-party perspective, the article began with the listing of Xinli Education and then cut to the entry of Swiss funds into Hong Kong. Many mainland banks joining forces to transfer billions of yuan became the high point of the first part of the article.

After that, it began to look through the accounts that the money had flowed into and found out who was behind the incident. The accounts were found to be opened by a company registered in the Cayman Islands in Hong Kong but controlled by Chinese.

At the end of the article, the article limited the culprit to a certain corporation or financial company on the mainland, but it did not specify who the culprit was. It only said that it would be announced the day after tomorrow.

Thus, the article became popular in Hong Kong. Due to the unique status of Hong Kong in the Chinese culture circle and the “conspiracy theories” and “revelation” articles, it attracted a lot of attention. Therefore, the article quickly spread in Hong Kong and started to spread to China and other countries where there were more Chinese.

As the financial center of the country, Shanghai received the news immediately.

Hence, countless financial professionals began to discuss this matter.

“Have you heard? There seems to be a domestic financial institution that massacred the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.”

“Did you read that article that was released by Hong Kong?”

“Yes. Have you seen it?”

“I have, but I have a feeling it’s a conspiracy theory. That article seems to be saying that a local financial company is purposely causing trouble.”

“I don’t feel that way. After all, they’re in the free market, so anyone can go and have some fun. On the other hand, I feel like this is something that will boost our morale. After all, for so many years, they’ve always looked down on us. Now that they’ve suffered a setback, they’ll know that we have capable people.”

“That makes sense. Other than Xinli Education, the other companies that suffered heavy losses are all from Hong Kong.”

“That’s right. I really hope we get to find out which financial company did this. I daresay that once we find out the name of this company, they will definitely be famous within the industry.”

“Yes, I agree. It’s going to be revealed soon, just the day after tomorrow. Let’s wait and see.”

Such conversations were common in Shanghai.

In the modern age of the internet, news traveled at the speed of light. Other than the financial industry, netizens in other circles in China soon found out about this.
