At the same time, An Sui, who was the center of the three peopleâs conversation, was holding Shen Xiyanâs skirt tightly, making it impossible for her to escape.
âAn Sui, how many times have I told you? I wonât invest! Quickly let go! Let go of me!â
Shen Xiyanâs expression was very ugly.
She had to put on a polite smile when someone passed by.
An Suiâs fawning smile didnât change at all. âSister Shen, you promised me half a year ago that you would invest in my movie.â
âDoes it not count?â
Shen Xiyan pursed her lips. âThen let me think about it againâ¦â
Half a year ago, An Sui had just experienced his first disaster. At that time, no one thought that he would be so unlucky and treated it as a small accident.
Coincidentally, at a business dinner, Shen Xiyan was entangled by someone and was in a dilemma. An Sui came forward to help and the two chatted for a long time.
After learning that An Sui was the only son of the An family and a director, Shen Xiyan casually made a promise. As long as An Sui needed investment in his movie, she would ânot shirk her responsibilityâ.
An Sui wasnât the kind of person who asked for repayment after helping someone.
Naturally, he didnât come looking for her after the incident.
This time, if An Sui had not been desperate, he would not have thought of Shen Xiyan.
In the beginning, Shen Xiyan was very tactful and only said that she wanted to discuss it with the people in the company. Later, she directly avoided An Sui and left.
An Sui knew what Shen Xiyan meant, but he didnât want to give up.
He had expected to see Shen Xiyan tonight.
âSister Shen said that she would consider it some time ago. Now youâre saying this again. Do you not even want to find a reason to brush me off?â
Shen Xiyan looked embarrassed and didnât know how to answer this question.
If it was purely An Sui who asked her for help, then she could just directly refuse or ruthlessly chase him away.
But just because she knew An Sui, the Shen family had relied on this relationship to have a lot of cooperation with the An family.
Once they shed all pretense of cordiality, it would more or less affect the cooperation between the two families.
Shen Xiyan had never been in contact with her familyâs business and only had a little self-awareness in this area.
Seeing that the other party was silent, An Sui was very unhappy. However, he remembered that he had a favor to ask of someone, so he could only smile apologetically again.
âSister Shen, thereâs definitely no problem with my script and production team this time. Iâll definitely investigate the entire production team thoroughly before filming. Iâll definitely not let something like that happen againâ¦â
âJust because you say it wonât happen, it wonât happen?1 Shen Xiyan cursed in her heart and said coldly, âEven if I want to invest in your movie, the people in the company wonât agree. Youâd better find someone else!â
âWhen Director An has a representative work, I think the people in our company will soon relent. By then, Director An can have as much investment as he wants.â
These words were like drawing a big pie to fool a child.
An Sui suppressed his anger and lowered his voice again. âSister Shen, if I canât get any investors, how can 1 have a representative work? You didnât even fulfill your promise to me in the past. How can I believe that you can fulfill your promise now?â
âForget it if you donât believe me.â Shen Xiyan was running out of patience.
She had been dragged here by An Sui for a long time. Hundreds of people at the banquet had seen it. Who knew what they would say about her behind her back!
At the thought of this, she simply said, âIf I hadnât promised you before, our company wouldnât even consider investing in your movie project!â
âTo be honest, Director An, youâre really not suitable for filming. I donât like the short films youâve filmed at all. Also, I definitely wonât act in your script. If the fans find out that Iâm acting in such a role, I might lose my fansâ¦â
âDirector An, perhaps you should be thankful for the unfortunate incident that happened to the production team. This only made you carry the name of being unlucky. No one knows if your film is bad or not!â
Shen Xiyan did not intend to say so much, but once she blurted a words hidden in her heart, the rest naturally followed.
The smile on An Suiâs face was gone.
It was not that he did not hear Shen Xiyan complaining to her agent in private, saying that his skin was as thick as a city wall or something. It did not matter.
However, making movies was something he wanted to do and had been working hard to do.
Shen Xiyan had belittled his ideals.
âMiss Shen, 1 havenât made a movie yet. Itâs not too late for you to comment that itâs a bad movie when Iâve made it!â
The person who had been supporting her suddenly turned hostile. Shen Xiyan did not want to accompany him and sneered, âThe important thing is, can you shoot it?â
âDo you know that everyone in the industry is saying that youâre a jinx?â
âIf you can really make a movie and itâs not a bad one, Iâll give you as much investment as you want for your next movie!â
An Sui scoffed. âThe next movie? Isnât this letting you off easy?â
Shen Xiyan sneered. âThen I wonât invest in you. Iâll give you ten million for free. How about that?â
A bet of ten million yuan. If she could send An Sui, the god of plague, away, then Shen Xiyan would have made a profit.
Besides, no one dared to throw money at An Sui now, and the An family would not care about him. Where would An Sui film a movie? Should she take a photo?
What a joke!
An Sui knew what Shen Xiyan was planning and asked coldly, âReally?â
âOf course itâs true.â After Shen Xiyan answered, she remembered that she had also boasted to An Sui like this last time, so she added, âAfter the banquet, we can sign a formal contract as proof.â
âBut the source of investment for the first movie-â
Shen Xiyan wanted to say that she would never give it to him, but she looked up and met Ye Guiwanâs eyes.
Standing beside Ye Guiwan⦠was Song Qingyou?
Shen Xiyan immediately changed her words. âThe source of investment must be Song Qingyou. If you can get her to invest, the bet will be established.â
An Sui was stunned. âSong Qingyou?â
â Yeah, sheâs the boss of Shengshi Entertainment.â
Shen Xiyan didnât want to talk about Song Qingyou, so she only said this.
The boss of an entertainment company usually invested in film projects. Even if An Sui didnât know Song Qingyou, he should be able to understand what she meant.
Who knew that after An Sui asked, he suddenly asked, âThat⦠Shengshi Entertainment?â
These words successfully made Shen Xiyanâs face twist for a moment.
âYes.â Her answer was forced out through gritted teeth.
An Sui didnât mind. âI heard that the TV series produced by Shengshi Entertainment has gone viral. If theyâre willing to invest in my movie, thatâs a good thing.â
âBut 1 donât know that Miss Song.â
He didnât even know her, and she might not even care about him. Then, there was no need to talk about attracting investors.
Shen Xiyan didnât want to hear how powerful Shengshi Entertainment was at all and scoffed, âItâs a popular TV series because the screenwriter is very good. It has nothing to do with Shengshi Entertainment.â
âLetâs go, Iâll take you to meet Song Qingyou.â
If she could make An Sui bring bad luck to Song Qingyou, then she would have made a huge profit!
It would be best if An Sui could cause Shengshi Entertainment to fail miserably and directly go bankrupt!
