Chapter 106: The Fat Guy's Big Production Movie
In the morning, Su Wen and Yi Xue had breakfast together.
"It's been a few days since I've seen Chufei, what has she been busy with lately?" Su Wen asked casually.
Yi Xue filled a bowl of porridge for Su Wen: "Feier has gone to her parents' place, she won't be back in ten days or half a month."
Su Wen heard this and smiled: "It's just as well she didn't come back, we can have a world of our own now."
Yi Xue directly ignored him, she was already used to Su Wen's habit of taking advantage of others.
In the morning, Su Wen and Yi Xue went to Ju Bao Lou together.
Ma Cheng and Zhao You came to report on their work. It turned out that they had sold a few more bottles of Yuanyang water yesterday, with one bottle even reaching a price of 40 million yuan. The 200-year-old wild ginseng also sold out among other items. However, Ma Cheng and Zhao You were not daring to sell the other things. If all the good stuff in Jibaozhai was sold out at once, there would be no one coming anymore. With the sale of these items, Jibaozhai had a large influx of money again.
Su Wen knew he had to continue searching for the treasure.
"Boss, the antiques at the entrance have been sold out. Chen Yunhao walked over, "As per your request, they were sold in bulk, and now the first floor looks much neater. However, by doing so, we've made things tough for a few nearby antique shops, with two of them even closing down."
Su Wen waved his hand: "In the future, we will only sell high-quality antiques, and there won't be much conflict with others."
Chen Yunhao understood Su Wen's meaning, with the treasures on the second floor, antiques and so on can only be considered as dispensable things. However, seeing Su Wen bring many old coins and ancient cast coins to the聚宝斋 every day, Lin Yunhao was still very happy.
Yi Xue had arranged the tasks for today and walked towards Su Wen: "You invested 300 million in a company called Wen Yu Entertainment Film, if you're free today, I suggest you go take a look, and if it's convenient, sign an agreement while you're at it."
"Agreement?"
Yi Xue nodded: "Pan Yu borrowed 30 million from the treasure hall, but you didn't even go through the formalities. What if Tianyu Entertainment Film and Television Company becomes big and strong one day, and he refuses to admit it? Then this 30 million will be gone."
"Isn't fatty like that?"
"I don't care what kind of person Pan Yu is, I only care about whether it's legal or not. In the future, it will be the same, no matter how much wealth we accumulate, no matter what industry we invest in, whether we make a profit or loss, everything must have evidence and basis, this is the foundation of our business."
Su Wen could say nothing more and had no choice but to agree.
"Early to go and early to return!"
"Alright!"
Su Wen walked towards Wenyu Entertainment Film Company, he also hadn't seen Fatso for a while, and indeed missed him a bit.
Caitai Building
Fat boy Lao Da Pan's territory, but now the 9th floor, 10th floor and 11th floor have been taken over by Fat Boy.
Wen Yu Entertainment Film and Television Company is located here.
Entrance Registration Office.
"Excuse me, sir, who are you looking for?" the security guard asked.
"I'm looking for Fatso." Su Wen replied without hesitation.
"Which fatty?" The security guard wondered.
"He's called Pan Yu." Su Wen smiled slightly.
The security guard's face changed instantly: "You're talking about Pan Shao?"
"Can't anyone else be named Pan Yu? I'm his good friend, and I came to find him today because of some matters. I don't even know how much of my 30 million he's spent. This dead fatty took the money and then disappeared, could it be that he's supporting another little celebrity?"
The security guard was shocked to hear Su Wen's whisper, and he hastily said: "Sir, please register first, I'll contact Pan Shao immediately. By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet, sir?"
"Sue Wen!"
The security guard hastily made an internal call and was seen constantly nodding his head.
Two minutes later, the security guard hung up the phone and a flattering smile appeared on his face: "Young Master Su, Young Master Pan is currently holding auditions for new people on the 11th floor. He asked you to wait for him on the 10th floor first, and he has arranged for someone to entertain you."
Su Wen nodded and walked towards the elevator.
At the elevator entrance, just as he opened the elevator door, a man and a woman rushed over.
The man wore a suit and tie, looking very handsome. He seemed to be born to be a star. The woman had a slender figure, a clear face, and light makeup, looking very delicate and charming.
"Wait a minute!" The man shouted and he and the woman rushed into the elevator.
"Thank you!" The woman said to Su Wen.
"You're welcome." Su Wen replied with a smile, he felt that this woman had a bit of Lin Xin Yi's neighbor girl temperament. When Su Wen saw that the two of them also pressed the tenth floor, he became even more curious, could it be that these two were also looking for Pang Zi?
"Dude, are you also going to the 10th floor? I don't know if it's for auditioning for the movie 'My Senior Sister Can't Be That Cute'?" The man looked at Su Wen with a hint of vigilance.
"Pffft!" Su Wen burst out laughing, "What movie are you talking about? Did I hear that wrong?"
"What's with the getup, you think you can go to the tenth floor and still look like a naive young kid? You're not here for an audition, what are you doing?" The man looked at Su Wen with disdain. "But let me tell you, you don't stand a chance, the male lead is definitely going to be mine."
Butter Boy?
Su Wen looked at himself, wasn't he just a bit bookish? How did he become a creamy pretty boy?
"And who might you be?" Su Wen suppressed his smile.
"Hmph, I'm Hua Jian, and I've already starred in three movies with a budget of tens of millions. In the film industry, I still have some reputation."
Su Wen nodded: "Awesome!"
"So you never had a chance."
"Big brother, don't say another word, maybe this gentleman really isn't here to try on glasses."
"Listen, brother told you, people like this, don't even dare to admit trying out a mirror, are just cowards. In the future, you should also stay away from such people. You're new and don't know yet, some people are just overestimating themselves, one thing on the surface, another behind their backs, saying they didn't come to try out for the role, but secretly stealing your part."
Su Wen's eyebrows furrowed upon hearing this.
However, Su Wen had not blown up yet, and Miao Miao was already angry: "Shixiong, how can you talk like this? We all fought for the role with our strength. If someone else took your role away, it's only because they were more suitable for that role."
"Miao Miao, you're still too naive." Hua Jian said with a 'you don't understand' expression.
Su Wen thought for a moment and decided not to say anything either.
"Sorry, sir. My senior brother spoke a bit harshly, please don't mind." Miao Miao unexpectedly apologized to Su Wen for Hua Jian.
"It doesn't matter, what role is Miss Miao trying out for?" Su Wen thought for a moment before asking, but Hua Jian's expression turned even uglier when he saw Su Wen chatting with Miao Miao, his attitude was as if he had taken Su Wen as an enemy.
"I'll try out for the role of Mirror Sister." Miao Miao's face turned slightly red, "Although I'm a newcomer, I have confidence in my acting, I..."
At this point, Miao Miao herself couldn't go on speaking.
"Miao Miao, have you just graduated from university?" Su Wen thought for a moment.
"How did you know?" Miao Miao was surprised.
Su Wen smiled slightly, and when she first graduated and looked for a job, she was also very confident and extremely nervous. However, the main reason why Su Wen was so determined was that she saw Miao Miao's university graduation certificate, which was held in her arms.
"It's a secret!" Su Wen smiled and thought that this woman named Miao Miao in front of him seemed to be naturally silly!
The elevator arrived at the tenth floor and the three of them walked out together.
The tenth floor was a hall where several people were already seated. Su Wen saw an empty sofa and walked over to it directly.
Hua Jian and Miao Miao looked around, it seemed that there was only an empty seat next to Su Wen, so they had no choice but to sit down beside him.
"Miao Miao, is Fatso's movie 'My Senior Sister Can't Be That Cute' really not just messing around?" Su Wen found a topic.
"What's going on?!" Miao Miao was puzzled, "'My Sister is Not That Cute' comes from a famous online novel, many people have read it and found it very interesting. This time the movie adaptation has an investment of over 20 million yuan, it's definitely a big production, I believe when it's released it will be a huge hit."
"Has this fat guy really come?" Su Wen muttered to himself, he knew the purpose of Fatso founding this company from the beginning, that was absolutely for the two little stars he had been supporting, but now it seems a bit different from what he imagined!
Su Wen chatted with Miao Miao for a few more minutes and basically figured out all of Miao Miao's situation.
Miao Miao, also known as Lin Miao Miao.
Nan Ying's newly graduated student, this is her first audition. As for that Hua Jian, he was three years senior to Lin Miao Miao, and it was also Hua Jian who strongly recommended Lin Miao Miao for the audition this time. However, as for what good intentions Hua Jian had, Su Wen would not believe it even if she died, this guy probably just wanted to get his hands on Lin Miao Miao's white and tender flesh!
Su Wen sat for four or five minutes before a middle-aged man jogged over.
"Su Wen, who is Su Wen?" the man shouted out loud. He really hated himself for delaying what Pan Shao had just entrusted him with. This toilet cover, he hoped Pan Shao wouldn't get angry, or else he would be in big trouble.
"It's me." Su Wen stood up.
Many people looked at Su Wen at this time, and many people showed curiosity. Hua Jian let out a cold snort.
A man ran up to Su Wen and panted: "Sorry, I'm late. Why are you sitting in the hall? Please come this way, please come this way!"
Su Wen followed the man into a single room.
The man poured a glass of water for Su Wen and then said, "Young Master Su, our Pan Shao is currently auditioning on the 11th floor. It's really embarrassing. The young master instructed me that if you have anything, you can directly order me."
Su Wen thought for a moment: "Fatso also understands trial lenses, it's really interesting, take me to see."
The man nodded: "Mr. Su, this way, please!"
