F**k Off This Damn Money
Chapter 23: fate
Chen Yiran was still in the company at the moment. Fu Oz came out after the meeting and knocked on the door of Chen Yiran's office: "Mr. Chen, don't you have dinner?"
Chen Yiran was about to say "no", and Fu Oz. preemptively said: "Sister Linlin told you that you can eat on time every day."
Chen Yiran: "..."
How long will he have to play this terrier?
Although he was complaining, he turned off the computer honestly, got up and walked out of the office.
Fu Oz smiled slyly, and deliberately said to Chen Yiran: "Linlin has been done recently, do you know?"
"Listen to Assistant Wu."
"Oh, then Assistant Wu tells you that she and Shangci's CP is very popular recently?" Fu Oz also took out his mobile phone and clicked on a video in his collection. "Look, this is edited by netizens. Both videos have more than three million views."
Chen Yiran frowned slightly and glanced at Fu Oz's phone screen. The pictures of Li Linlin and Shang Ci used on the video cover are just their appearances in the play. He glanced at Fu Oz: "Do you do this every day when you come to the company?"
"...I watched it during my break time." Fu Oz put the phone back. "Since Huachuang is involved in this area, we usually pay more attention to the dynamics of the entertainment industry. Is there any problem?"
"There is someone responsible for this kind of thing, or do you want me to transfer you to this one?"
"..." Fu Oz coughed and shut up obediently.
On the other side, Li Linlin was eating a barbecue next door and watching her own TV series. Originally, it was a bit embarrassing to watch the drama by myself, and now so many people watch it together, Li Linlin tried to enliven the atmosphere at the dinner table and divert everyone's attention elsewhere. Unexpectedly, everyone watched it with gusto.
Li Linlin finally gave up resisting and followed. The plot updated this week involves business wars. Ou Jiaxu used some methods to control Ou's company in his own hands. But because Xiao Yiren kept staring at her, her plan almost failed.
Well, although in the end they will all be defeated.
After watching it, Li Linlin no longer felt so embarrassed. Wang Xin's screenwriting ability is very strong, and the plot has always been very tight. The interaction between the male and female lords is also very sweet when viewed alone, but because Ogaxu's popularity is too high now, everyone naturally can't see the two of them sweet.
Today, the male and female protagonists will be sweet for a minute on TV, and there will be 10 more CP videos of "Northern Beauty" on the Internet tomorrow.
After the two episodes of TV series were broadcast, and the barbecue was almost eaten, Wu Hui insisted on pulling Li Linlin downstairs to go jogging and let her burn calories. Chen Xi saw that they were leaving, and it was too bad to stay here alone, so he followed them.
After they were gone, a few boys began to clean up the house. Lu Yuxuan stuck to Lu Ruizhou's side and asked him gossiping: "Brother, do you like Sister Linlin?"
Lu Ruizhou wiped the table with his hand, and squinted his eyes to look at him: "Is this the question you elementary school students should think about?"
"Oh, the primary school students shouldn't buy vegetables and cook by themselves."
"..." Lu Ruizhou was speechless.
Seeing his reaction, Lu Yuxuan knew that he must be interested in sister Linlin, so he spurned him to confess to others: "If you like it, you must tell it, otherwise you will regret it in the future!"
"..." Lu Ruizhou continued to wipe his desk, "You think too much."
Lu Yuxuan looked at him next to him, and asked his soul: "Do you think you are not worthy of sister Linlin?"
Lu Ruizhou: "..."
"Don't be afraid, even if you are really rejected, at least you have tried it." Lu Yuxuan said that the principle is more slippery than Lu Ruizhou, "and sister Linlin is not that kind of person, you might have a chance!"
Lu Ruizhou finally put down the rag in his hand: "I think you have too little homework. I will contact your head teacher now and let her assign you the homework separately."
"...Don't, don't, brother, you don't need it like this." Lu Yuxuan stopped him, showing a good smile, "I will go back to my house to do my homework now, goodbye."
Lu Ruizhou watched him shut the bedroom door before standing still and sighed.
On Li Linlin's side, Lu Ruizhou hadn't noticed what Lu Ruizhou thought of herself, and all her attention was on her steadfast enthusiasm.
Every week "Fatal Heartbeat" is broadcast, her popularity is about to rise. Seeing that there is a slow downward trend, next week's "Fatal Heartbeat" should be broadcast again!
And now with CP blessing, her popularity is higher than before, and the number of videos of her monk's resignation edited on the Internet is also increasing.
My brother hasn't had a single message these days, it must be because of this!
"Linlin." Li Linlin was worrying, but Wu Hui rushed into her room happily, "You are such a business genius!"
When Li Linlin saw Wu Hui, her eyebrows jumped: "What are you talking about?"
Wu Hui happily hugged the folder in her hand, with a smile on her face: "Aren't you unwilling to accept the advertisements I told you last time? I refused. They thought you thought the price was too low. If the endorsement fee is increased a lot! Is this your routine?"
Li Linlin: "..."
No, she didn't.
"Linlin, you are surprisingly business-minded!" Wu Hui put the folder on the table, which contained a few contracts. Li Linlin's heart jumped, and a very bad premonition surged: "You didn't sign the contract, did you?"
"Right." Wu Hui turned the contract to the endorsement fee page, "They gave too much."
"..." Li Linlin glanced, indeed a lot.
But this is not what she wants!
"Why did you decide without authorization!" Li Linlin asked her angrily.
Wu Hui was stunned, and said, "Didn't you ask me to work hard? My job is to help you pick up work."
Li Linlin: "..."
"And I wondered if you should be satisfied with the price, so I signed it." Wu Hui looked at her carefully, "Is it still less? I didn't say Linlin, we are newcomers after all, and the price is already high. It seems that we are too much."
Li Linlin: "..."
OMG! The biggest mistake she made in her life was to find Wu Hui'er as a manager!
Wu Hui thought she was dissatisfied with the price, and continued to enlighten her: "Well, you can't just look at the endorsement fee, but also the brand value. The two endorsements I helped you are my top picks. Wanxuan’s brand is very good in all aspects, and the products are very suitable for you!"
Li Linlin twitched the corners of her lips. The two brands that Wu Hui picked were indeed very good brands. The previous spokespersons were all popular artists. In fact, she is still a little bit high.
But this is not what she wants!
Observing her reaction, Wu Hui said: "These two endorsements are really good, and they are very sincere, saying that they will call you the full amount today."
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Linlin received a text message notification. She mechanically picked up the phone and glanced at it. It was the account notification from the bank. She didn't count the zeros clearly, and there was another notice from the bank. It was still a new entry, as many as the previous zeros.
Li Linlin: "..."
No, that's enough! Stop stuffing her with money!
Linlin was desperate.
Wu Hui glanced at Li Linlin’s phone like a thief, and when she saw that it was an account notification, she was immediately happy: "Great, our studio is rich and hiring! Tonight we will call Shang Xixi and Xiaoxi smiled and went out to dinner to celebrate!"
Li Linlin: "..."
Human sorrows and joys are not interlinked. :)
Today Wu Hui may be so happy, she even agreed to Li Linlin's hot pot, and Li Linlin's heart hurt by money can be regarded as a touch of warmth.
Five girls went to a well-known hot pot restaurant, ordered a VIP room, and ordered a table of dishes.
"Come on, let us wish Linlin a bright future!" Chen Xi raised the orange juice in her hand and called on everyone to get up and toast.
"Chu Linlin is getting more and more red and richer!" The orange juice in the hands of the five people met together, "Cheers!"
With a bitter expression on her face, Li Linlin quickly said silently in her heart: "No, no, don't listen to them, please!"
Although Li Linlin was unwilling in every possible way, but the contract was signed and the money was paid, she could only resign herself to shoot the commercial. Shooting commercials is indeed much easier than shooting TV series. Li Linlin basically did not spend much time and finished shooting both commercials.
"The next step is to cooperate with the brand propaganda. Don't worry about this, I will follow up." Wu Hui did not come to the scene with Li Linlin today, but went to video with her over the phone, "I have to go to class soon, you let Xiaoxi and Smile directly and send you back to Silver Bay."
"Yeah." Li Linlin nodded wiltingly. Wu Hui thought she was tired from filming, and didn't take it seriously.
Li Linlin hung up the phone and leaned back in her chair in a daze. Xiaoxi and Xiaoxiao secretly glanced at her, holding their cellphones to send messages to each other.
"Why is Linlin not so happy after making so much money this time?"
"I also find it weird. It's easy to shoot commercials and there is a lot of money. Why is she dissatisfied?"
"I don't know, do you think it's too challenging?"
"...Is that so? You deserve to be a top student from Imperial Capital University!"
After the two of them sent the message, they raised their heads and gave Li Linlin a look. Xiaoxi tentatively said: "Linlin, do you want to have a dessert? We promise not to tell Wu Huier!"
"Yes." Xiaoxiao echoed, "What kind of food do you want, let's buy it for you."
Speaking of eating, Li Linlin finally recovered a bit. She thought for a while, and said to the two of them: "I want to eat the buffet at Dingou Hotel. The desserts in it are all good."
"Okay, let's go with you."
"No, I can go by myself." Li Linlin refused them. Although the two of them didn't control her like Wu Hui, they would definitely stop her if she ate too much. So, she should go alone!
Xiaoxi and Xiaoxiao were actually a little worried, but Li Linlin insisted that they could only let her go.
After arriving at the cafeteria on the second floor of Dingou Hotel, Li Linlin immediately became happy. She went to the membership-only dining area, took a plate and picked herself a lot of food, found a corner and sat down.
The members’ dining area has a lot fewer people than the front, and it’s more private. Even the food served is different.
Li Linlin was eating happily, when she heard a little dispute coming from her side. She glanced curiously, and saw a tall and thin middle-aged man talking to a man dressed as a boss opposite.
"Boss Qian, our TV series really has great potential. As long as it can be broadcast smoothly, it is guaranteed to make money."
Boss Qian laughed and made it clear that he did not believe his statement: "You should change to another person to fool you. The last person who told me this caused me to lose tens of millions, and now I am still hiding at home and dare not come out. for me."
"..."
"You have no IP and no traffic in this show. What can you guarantee to make money?" Boss Qian stood up and patted the man on the shoulder. "You directors, you can't just cheat me by yourself. I'm in your circle." Is it a well-known taker?"
"..."
Boss Qian took his bag and left, leaving the tall and thin man sitting depressed on the sofa.
After a while, he picked up the phone again and dialed out: "Hello, is this Boss Liu? This is Tao Ye..."
As soon as he introduced himself, the other party hung up the phone.
The man froze for a moment, then flipped through the address book, and dialed another call out: "Hello, Mr. Xie, this is Xiao Tao. Yes, yes, it's the investment thing that I told you last time. I don't know how you think about it. Okay? No, no, I'm not urging you, but my crew is still waiting for the money to start work. Oh... this way... well, then I won't bother you."
After hanging up the phone, he sat there holding the phone, the whole person was shrouded in shadow, as if he could cry in the next moment.
The last time Li Linlin saw a boy crying was when she was in high school, because she always took the first place in the exam, and when the second-place boy talked to her, she cried aggrievedly. But high school students are very emotional, and an adult man will not easily expose his vulnerability.
Li Linlin sat down and looked at him for a while, took her bag and put on her sunglasses, and walked towards him.
"Hello." She greeted the other party, and the man out of the world was taken aback for a moment, and raised his head to look at her in a daze.
Li Linlin raised her sunglasses and smiled at him: "Are you okay?"
The man stunned again, and recognized her as Li Linlin, and quickly got up from the sofa: "It's Miss Li, hello, hello."
Li Linlin sat down on the sofa opposite him and said to him: "I just sat there and heard you talking to Boss Qian. Is there something wrong with your TV series?"
Tao Ye listened to her question. He was silent for a while, and then he said: "I am ashamed, but I have encountered some problems and harmed, but I am also to blame. Our crew didn't have much investment in the early stage. I always wanted to be perfect when filming. , Unknowingly, the money was spent. In addition, an investor withdrew in the middle of the capital. Now the capital chain is broken, and the entire crew is shut down."
"Oh, that's how it is."
"I have been looking for new investors these days, but everyone is not optimistic about our drama. Now the industry is too impetuous. Everyone can only see the IP and traffic. It seems that these are guaranteed. But it is a really good one. Are TV dramas produced by these piles? Why are those TV dramas with only one shell always have the best resources, and those who really want to make dramas are not interested in it? What happened to this world and this world? "!" Tao Ye said and said, crying directly to himself.
This aggrieved appearance really resembled the man who was second in Li Linlin's class at the time. She pursed her lips, took out a tissue from her bag, and handed it to him: "I understand, now everyone only looks at money, but not everyone just wants money!"
Tao Yewan nodded as soon as he met his soulmate, wiping his tears: "Yes, in life, there is always something else to pursue!"
Li Linlin also nodded: "Well, how much money your crew is short of, I will invest."
Tao Ye froze, and the whole person was stunned: "Are you willing to invest in our crew?"
"Right." Li Linlin nodded, "Although I am not a big boss, I still have some savings. How much do you need?"
Li Linlin is also a popular female celebrity no matter what, there is also an international superstar father, Tao Ye is not worried that she will not be able to pay. He considered it for a while, and said to her: "Two or two million?"
Li Linlin said: "Is two million enough? So let me give you five million."
Tao Ye stood up abruptly, almost knocking over the table in front of him with excitement: "Really, really?"
"Of course, it's too late to transfer today, I'll send you money tomorrow!"
"Then, then I will print the contract now!" Tao Ye took his bag, and his voice was a little trembling, "The business center of the hotel can print, you, you are here to wait for me, I will be back soon!"
As he said, he ran downstairs with a bag, and Li Linlin went back to her table and waited for him while eating. After a while, Tao Ye blew over like a small whirlwind: "Hey, the contract is printed!"
"Okay." Li Linlin signed her name without seeing it.
Tao Ye was stunned, and asked her, "Aren't you looking at the contract first?"
Li Linlin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, a person like Director Tao who has dreams will not cheat me on the contract."
Tao Ye's heart was moved, and tears were about to shed again: "Don't worry, I'm confident that our drama will be a hit!"
Li Linlin smiled and nodded.
After Tao Ye left, Li Linlin continued to sit down and ate everything she took. Although she admires people like Tao Ye, those bosses who rejected him are right. Now in this industry, the possibility of making money from dramas like him is indeed very small.
But she didn't invest to make money, but... it was a joy to get money out!
She hummed a small song and walked downstairs. As soon as she arrived in the lobby, she saw Chen Yiran walking among a group of business people.
