81 Iâll Do It
Rong Hua laid on the ground like a dead man. However, the people around him did not look at him. The director sat in his seat and ate as if nothing had happened.
The producer was a little anxious. He walked over to Xi Wan and said, âMrs. Su, Mr. Rong is an investor of our production team. Please be gracious and let him off. If you get him drunk, he wonât be able to sign the contract later.â
Xi Wan looked at the producer in surprise and asked, âItâs already the opening ceremony now but you havenât signed the contract yet?â
The producer was embarrassed and said, âThis is Mr. Rongâs own request. He said that this would make it more ritualistic. Thatâs why weâll leave the signing of the contract until the opening ceremony, and weâll sign the contract in front of all the reporters.â
!!
âYouâre really tolerant to agree to his request. What if he suddenly goes back on his word during the opening ceremony and refuses to sign the contract? Are you guys going to continue filming this television series then?â Xi Wan said, âThis guy doesnât look like a reliable person at first glance. What I just said might happen. You should also pay attention in the future and donât collaborate with such people anymore.â
âYes, youâre right. Mrs. Su, youâve taught me a valuable lesson.â The producer nodded and bowed, admitting his mistake. âBut heâs our only investor now so heâll have to show up at the opening ceremony later. Therefore, I hope youâll be gracious and let him go.â
âIâve already said so much just now and you still want him to be an investor? But thereâs no benefit for you to collaborate with him.â Xi Wan shrugged. âWell, how about this? How much do you need to invest in your production? Iâll invest.â
âHeâs currently the one we can find⦠What? You said youâre going to invest in our production?â The producerâs eyes widened in shock.
The directorâs hand that had been eating finally stopped.
The system shouted: [What are you doing? This isnât your mission, so you donât have to do it.]
Xi Wan turned a deaf ear and continued to say to the producer, âDo you need a lot of money for this production? A few hundred million? Or a few billion?â
The systemâs screen turned gray. It knew that Xi Wan would never listen to it.
âNo! Itâs just that I didnât expect Mrs. Su to actually invest in our production team!â The producer was so touched that he almost burst into tears.
The director finally got up and walked to Xi Wan. He asked, âMrs. Su, do you mean what you say?â
He still did not seem to believe it.
Xi Wan met the directorâs gaze and said, âDo I look like Iâm joking? I even brought people here to make your investor drink like this for my actressâs sake today. I was just too excited. Since thatâs the case, Iâll definitely make it up to you.â
The director and the producer felt as if a huge pie had fallen from the sky. They were so happy that they were suddenly at a loss for what to do. How was this a compensation? This was clearly a surprise!
âI wonder if you have a contract? Let me have a look at it. Iâll sign it if thereâs no problem. â Xi Wan said.
The producerâs eyes lit up and he immediately found the contract that he was going to sign with Mr. Rong. Xi W looked at the contract carefully and said, âNo problem, Iâll just sign it.â
After signing the agreement, Xi Wan became the investor of the production. She poured a glass of wine for herself and the director, then clinked their glasses and said, âHappy collaboration!â
This happened in a flash. When Rong Huaâs consciousness was a little clearer, he got up from the ground and said, âMrs. Su, this wine is good, but I canât drink it alone. You have to drink it too.â
Xi Wan did not want to hear this old hooligan speak, so she waved her hand and instructed the bodyguards, âDrag him out and throw him in the backyard. Let him sober up on his own.â
Rong Hua, who was in a daze, was lifted up by the bodyguards and thrown into the backyard.
âNow that the most troubling matter has been resolved, all that is left is just to eat. Thereâs no need to think about anything else.â Xi Wan smiled again.
[I thought you were here to save the damsel in distress. I didnât expect you to become the investor of this production team! Doesnât that mean youâve indirectly become the female protagonistâs immediate boss?]
Xi Wan paused for a moment before she reacted and said, âIâm already the female protagonistâs boss.â
[Arenât you doing this because of that? Why do you want to invest then?]
Xi Wan said seriously, âBecause I have money. I have a lot of money so I can invest whenever I want.â
The system replied: [Thank you, I donât want to hear these words ever again.]
