The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 312

Tim kept apologizing to Youyou for failing at his job, since he knew her. But Youyou was impatient to hear him say these things:

"Stop telling me that. I'm neither a shareholder nor an executive. This company has nothing to do with me. Don't hang around in front of me. Take away your trash spokesman when you leave."

Tim said yes several times, also catering to Youyou's wishes, and took Guo Yuyang away.

After everyone left, only the three of them were left in the empty conference room. Only then did Youyou come over to explain:

"Senior sister, I didn't lie to you. Unlike Shen Qingqing, I stopped living at home since I started university. Apart from tuition, I earned the rest of the money myself. I've never told anyone about my family background before, and I don't plan to go back home to inherit the family business in the future either.

This time too, Shen Qingqing had already collected information on Guo Yuyang's conduct issues and sent it to the headquarters. I just couldn't help but scolded him a few times... Mainly because you didn't ask. If you had asked, I would have definitely told you..."

Qin Wei shook her head:

"None of that matters. I'm just curious, what's your real name?"

Shen Qingqing: "..."

Youyou answered her: "Wei You, the 'You' in carefree. Ask me anything else and I'll tell you too." 𝘧𝘳𝓮𝓮𝓌𝘦𝓫𝓷𝘰𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝓬ℴ𝘮

"No more questions. Knowing this is enough."

Qin Wei looked at Shen Qingqing.

"Can you be more sensible from now on? Why'd you flirt with someone like that? Isn't that dangerous???"

Youyou nodded: "Yeah."

"I was wrong! I only wanted to vent your anger originally. When you told me to stop, didn't I stop... And I returned everything he bought too..."

Shen Qingqing admitted her mistake obediently. Since changing her circle of friends, her life had changed quite a bit. If she was with her previous friends, things like this wouldn't be considered strange.

But she preferred her current friends more.

"But I have good news to tell you. When I went home this time, my dad told me that as long as I don't marry you, he'll invest 5 million as incense money to pray to Buddha. Qin Wei, aren't I amazing!"

After Shen Qingqing finished speaking, she was still a little proud.

Qin Wei: "?"

Youyou: "?"

"Who are you getting married to?"

The door of the conference room was pushed open, and Qiao Sixiao's voice sounded at the same time.

It was about time for Qiao Sixiao to join the crew.

Accompanying her was Su Yang, who joined the crew at the same time.

Shen Qingqing explained:

"Teacher Qiao, this is reverse invitation for investment! This is the only way to make my dad willing to invest wholeheartedly. Although the amount isn't much, it's still better than nothing!"

"It's a good thing."

Qiao Sixiao didn't deny it, but only said this one sentence. She walked over, lifted Qin Wei's hand and took a look, then said to Qin Wei:

"Su Yang said he has something to tell you."

Su Yang walked up to Qin Wei and suddenly bowed deeply:

"I'm sorry! I shouldn't have said such unkind words that day. After thinking it over carefully when I got home, I realized how immature I was. I really didn't know investment solicitation was so difficult..."

After the dinner party, the final decisions of the various investors also came out, and to be honest, it wasn't very optimistic. Most of them said they would wait and see, while a minority invested part of their funds only after seeing Qin Wei and He Hong's utmost sincerity.

In other words, Qin Wei didn't drink in vain that day, at least there was still some return.

"Staying principled was right."

Qin Wei said to Su Yang,

"But there's no need to collide hard with society on everything. Sometimes there's no need to fight till both sides suffer losses for no reason, just hold your ground on real bottom lines."

Real bottom lines?

Su Yang wanted to ask what those were.

"Alright, let's turn the page. I'm exhausted."

Qin Wei didn't continue, but tried her best to act spoiled with Qiao Sixiao instead:

"Teacher Qiao, I miss you so much! Did you see the messages I sent you? Did you buy egg tarts for me after you got off the plane? Ah?"

As she spoke, she wanted to hug Qiao Sixiao, but was pushed away by the other party.

Even after everyone else left, Qin Wei still persisted in following behind and whining:

"You would check your phone after getting off the plane, you must've received my messages. I've been craving to eat egg tarts these two days! I could only count on you... How come you only bought one... Aren't these usually sold in boxes of six..."

...

The next day, with Guo Yuyang gone, Qin Wei's workload for shooting was reduced by half. She took the time to accompany her two friends horseback riding on the grassland. Strangely enough, it was the first time for both of them to play on the grassland, yet they both knew how to ride horses.

Qin Wei applauded them. After all, it took her a long time to master this skill:

"How amazing, both of you know how to ride horses."

"What's so amazing about it?"

Shen Qingqing looked at Qin Wei,

"Ever since I was young, my dad signed me up for equestrian classes, so of course I know how to ride. I learned it through practice too."

Youyou didn't follow up on her words. She said to Shen Qingqing instead:

"Since senior sister finds it amazing, then it is amazing!"

Shen Qingqing really wanted to whip her with the riding crop.

...

After playing for a day, Youyou had other work to do. She had only come at Shen Qingqing's request to uphold justice. She took two days off from the crew with permission to earn money to support herself. Now she had to get back to work.

As for Shen Qingqing, she decided to stay behind. So this time she specially brought her assistant and luggage to come along.

Qin Wei said sarcastically: "Why are you still sticking around here? Your brother has already left."

But Shen Qingqing wasn't angry: "Because I'm an investor! Of course I can come over to see the project I invested in. When one brother leaves, another one will come."

...

The next day, Rui Qi announced termination of contract with Guo Yuyang. At the same time, the Star Ignition crew announced Guo Yuyang's withdrawal from subsequent shooting, and the role of Da Zhe would be played by another actor, so please look forward to it.

This attracted attention, mainly because Guo Yuyang had quite a sizable fanbase. They kept making noise about boycotting Star Ignition and Rui Qi, and kept causing trouble under both official accounts for days on end.

The result was the crew and the brand side jointly suing several major fans who stirred things up, and exposing evidence of Guo Yuyang's contract violations before his fans quieted down.

As for Rui Qi internally, there was also a major reshuffling of top management which was reappointed by the headquarters.

In Southern California, USA, a man wearing a white short sleeve shirt and beach pants was comfortably basking in the sun when his view was blocked by someone.

"The contract termination was a bit rash and it'll impact share prices. Jiesen Wei, wake up."

A pleasant male voice came from above.

"Don't treat me like an idiot."

The man named Jiesen Wei took off his sunglasses and looked at the handsome man in front of him.

"Shen Kai, you still come to the beach in a suit. There's definitely something wrong with you."

But Shen Kai ignored him and continued:

"As a shareholder, I want to know what you plan to do."

"The infighting within the Wei family went on for too long. The companies in Asia Pacific were already rotten. Now that the company is in my hands, I will certainly revamp things!

Shen Kai, your opportunity has come. Let's see if the Best Actor is willing to act in a TV series again."

Jiesen Wei raised his hand and pushed Shen Kai.

"Get out of the way. Don't disturb my vacation."

...

"Has the investment been secured?"

During a break from shooting, Qin Wei was playing on her phone and suddenly received a series of good news —

Rui Qi won't withdraw investment capital and will continue to follow up according to the contract;

Famous Capital City investor, Shen Ying, invested 5 million;

Famous Yong City investor, President Tang, invested 8 million.

The investment amount of these two people wasn't that much. After all, to indulge his spoiled wife, President Zheng had invested 6 million.

But the significance of these two people's investments was extraordinary. Both had very accurate judgement in their choice of investment projects. Following their investments, even if you don't benefit directly, you can still reap some rewards. Thus, in investment circles, the nicknames "North Shen" and "South Tang" were coined.

The two of them invested in this TV series, which wasn't held in regard, at almost the same time. What's more, at this time, several actors from the crew were embroiled in different scandals, and even investors were hesitating over whether to take the chance to withdraw their investments or not. Yet these two bravely invested in spite of pressure!

Reporters interviewed Shen Ying. His reply was "to indulge my child". After that he refused to respond further.

Reporters also interviewed the never before seen President Tang, who hadn't even revealed his name, through his company. The reply obtained was "to make the child happy", after which they could no longer get in contact!

The reason for investment given by these two big shots in investment circles was "child"?
