Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 358: Xiao Wu Is Disobedient

When Mu Jingzhe realized that there was a business opportunity, she moved immediately. She felt that Little Bei’s photos and stickers would definitely be all over the streets in the future, so why not make them herself? It would be easier to control the quality, and she could also earn some money.

Since she was starting this business, it couldn’t just be about Little Bei. Whoever was the most popular would bring higher sales. Mu Jingzhe knew that, but she didn’t casually print photos of anyone she wished. Instead, she contacted each celebrity through official channels and first obtained the rights to use their photos before testing the waters with Little Bei’s photo.

She tried printing celebrity posters, photos, and stickers first. Once they were released, sure enough, they became really popular. Many people were willing to buy them, thinking that it would be nice to collect them or hang them at home.

Seeing that the sales momentum was going well, Mu Jingzhe started to make calendars. Calendars could be sold starting from the last three months of the year and would make a great little gift or company perk.

When Mu Jingzhe spotted this market, she made a small profit and felt that she could make even more in the future. After all, the market would be bigger down the road, and merchandise of some popular television dramas could be sold all over the country.

Before long, the box office earnings of “Nameless” were released. The cost of the movie hadn’t been high, but the box office earnings were good, so it made a solid profit.

The film production company was very satisfied and said that they could work together again in the future. Other than that, Shao Dong and Mu Jingzhe had also earned quite a bit of money. Shao Xi, Little Bei, and Xiao Wu weren’t doing bad either, because they had also invested the money they had earned.

It wasn’t a bad idea to start investing at such a young age. The family had made a lot of money.

Little Bei had consecutively received many scripts and collaboration offers. Compared to before, this time, the scripts were richer and better. Although it wasn’t the end of the year, the film festival hadn’t started, and the movie awards hadn’t commenced yet, Little Bei’s acting skills and market appeal had already been spotted by everyone.

There were many scripts, quite a few of which included cross-gender roles, so there was enough for Little Bei to choose from. Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei carefully chose, mainly based on the story and Little Bei’s taste, and they didn’t specifically pursue cross-gender roles.

As Little Bei slowly picked out scripts, Shao Xi’s book sold like hotcakes again. Someone even contacted Shao Xi and said that if he planned on turning his next book into a movie, they could collaborate.

The directors who used to say that Shao Xi was fooling around and had looked down on Shao Xi’s work also changed their tune.

His writing was extremely realistic.

Shao Xi, Little Bei, and Xiao Wu had all received a lot of awards and favorable reviews. Besides, after ‘Nameless’ was screened overseas, it created a small storm. Later on, record companies really came to look for Xiao Wu to produce an album with him.

Other than domestic record companies, there were also overseas ones. Those in the country who hadn’t expected this or taken action at first threw out olive branches after hearing this, all of them providing the best conditions they could offer.

They saw Xiao Wu’s value and were certain that many people would buy and like his music.

Everything was going as expected. After Xiao Wu received this news, he asked around seriously and finally agreed to collaborate with someone.

Mu Jingzhe supported this choice.

In addition to the soundtrack that had been published previously, Xiao Wu would also compose new songs for the album.

This was his first time, though, so he still had to ask if there were things he didn’t understand. Even though Xiao Wu had not said anything, Old Master Ji and Ji Buwang had already decided to support him.

Ji Buwang, his uncle, had long been prepared to visit him uninvited.

He came to bond with Xiao Wu, as well as to see Mu Jingzhe.

“Uncle.” Xiao Wu was very happy to see Ji Buwang. Previously, he had said that he wouldn’t acknowledge Ji Buwang as an uncle and would just treat him as Teacher Ji, but since Ji Buwang and Old Master Ji treated him so well, he no longer said things like that.

Ji Buwang scooped Xiao Wu up. “You’ve grown taller and become a little heavier.”

As he weighed Xiao Wu in his hands, Ji Buwang gauged his condition. “Grandpa brought you a lot of things. They’re in the trunk of the car, and there are also many toys. Your cousin bought them for you.”

The cousin Ji Buwang was talking about was Tang Moling. Tang Moling had been enslaved by Ji Buwang and hadn’t had the chance to see Mu Jingzhe. Although he was still clamoring, in reality, he had already shifted his attention to another girl.

It was said that because he couldn’t see Mu Jingzhe, he missed her very much. He even missed Jingzhe’s Herculean strength. In the end, when he had nothing to do, he would find a girl to arm-wrestle with him, offering her money for beating him.

Only he could have thought of such a game. Anyone else would have been scolded to death, but when Tang Moling thought of it, no one scolded him. Besides, many girls were playing with him. After all, Tang Moling was in a high position and was very good-looking. He was very attractive among girls, who found it very interesting to arm wrestle with him.

Unfortunately, Tang Moling wasn’t interested in girls who couldn’t beat him at arm-wrestling, but a girl barged into his world and beat him.

Only then did Tang Moling feel a little interested. Although he thought that he had been careless, he ended up losing again and again. He then realized that the girl was very impressive and was also very good at boxing.

It was said that Tang Moling had launched a sneak attack and been knocked down by a shoulder throw. Just like that, the girl had successfully piqued Tang Moling’s interest and been hired as his bodyguard.

Based on the story that Mu Jingzhe heard from Ji Buwang, the novel about sweet and doting love had turned into a novel about a pair of quarrelsome lovers. The male lead was still Tang Moling, but the female lead had become that skilled female bodyguard.

Tang Moling rarely thought of Mu Jingzhe anymore, just like he had gone from liking Mu Xue to liking Mu Jingzhe, but he still refused to admit it.

He hadn’t expected Xiao Wu to be his eldest uncle’s son. Xiao Wu used to call him ‘Uncle’, but now he had become his cousin.

He was his eldest uncle’s son, so he had sent him many toys and gifts.

Although it was childish, Tang Moling had actually given Xiao Wu toys that kids of his age loved to play with. Therefore, even though Xiao Wu claimed that these toys were for little kids, his body obediently wanted to play with them.

It was a good thing that Xiao Wu could have fun, but… because he had been playing with marbles and couldn’t beat anyone, he started practicing hard his marble-playing technique. In the end, it caused him not to want to work anymore, which was a problem.

“Xiao Wu, let’s play again tomorrow. Let’s get busy today.”

“Wait for me to hit this marble and push it into the hole.” Xiao Wu lay on the ground, raised his butt, and extended two fingers before aiming at the hole.

Ji Buwang: “That’s what you said earlier. Then, you hit another one after the marble went in.”

“This is definitely the last one.”

Ji Buwang: “That’s what you said just now. I don’t quite believe you anymore.”

Xiao Wu didn’t say anything and focused on playing with the marbles. Ji Buwang had a helpless look in his eyes. Mu Jingzhe looked at him and advised Ji Buwang. “Don’t rush him. Let him play. When he’s done playing, he will concentrate on work. After all, no one starts working at such a young age.”

Xiao Wu had not known what it meant to be willful from a young age. Only now that he was almost six years old did he finally know what it meant to be willful. They should let him be a little willful then.

Children had to go through every stage. As the saying went, even dogs found seven- or eight-year-old children annoying. Xiao Wu was probably preparing to go through this stage as well.
