Hua Yan looked a bit innocently forgetful: "Didn’t I say it? Oh, then I officially inform you now, the publishing script for this ’Heiress Strategy’ is written by , but even so, friendship is friendship, you still have to go to our website to buy the film adaptation rights. The price will also be negotiated between them and you, and once you have almost settled it, it might co to . By then, I will join our crew as an investor and in other capacities."
Liang An was so tongue-tied: "Do you have that much confidence in our team? Aren’t you afraid that you will lose all your opportunities because of this?"
Hua Yan laughed: "With your years of experience as a director, and my years of writing online novels, plus the years of honing of those young actors under you, what does it matter if we’re the lowest-ranked group in this circle? As long as we conscientiously do what we should, act with our heart, shoot with care, what if we could broadcast on a major network? Even if it’s not a top TV drama, a local TV station will do. Then, we can work hard on video platforms to get a weekly online drama status. Can’t everything develop for the better? After a first try, the second will be easier. We shouldn’t end up losing so much that we don’t even have a company na, right?"
Liang An, feeling ashad by Hua Yan’s words, did not forget to hold on to this promising talent of her future.
"Since that’s the case, why do you only act as the female lead during her youth? Why not let you and Ling Yao take the lead roles as the main characters; wouldn’t that be more suitable? Let the company find others for the remaining roles to play, and I can also find those experienced actors, extras easily, and guarantee a good price and quality. You’re right about the costus, props, and makeup—it’s the last thing we should economize on, otherwise, the quality will drop. What do you think, give it a try? We’re investing in our drama, if you don’t step in, who will?"
Hua Yan pressed her lips together, "But I don’t really have the ti, I’m just graduating from middle school this year, and I have to report to high school in September, so I really don’t have ti to co out and film, doesn’t our drama’s shooting cycle take half a year if not a year?"
"Solutions are figured out by people, you’re such a good student, can’t you study by yourself in the crew? Think of so way, otherwise, hiring soone else would cost more money. Plus, this is your script, you understand the characters in the drama better and can analyze and explain them better than professional teachers, right?"
Hua Yan wasn’t swayed by Liang An’s persuasion: "These are two different things, don’t talk nonsense. Besides, my acting experience is nil, don’t have too much confidence in ."
"Yes, your acting experience is zero, but I have seen your acting, especially when you acted as a refined lady before, the mory still stays with vividly. Clearly, you’re a good seedling, wouldn’t it be a waste not to use it? It’s decided, the female lead must be you!"
Hua Yan didn’t think in that direction, she currently cared more about: "Study the script thoroughly first, find a professional back, we can discuss it together, strive to lay a solid foundation in one go, only when the script is thoroughly understood can we gradually work on roles, costus, props, and makeup. As for the investnt, we can’t slack either, I initially estimate the production cost of this drama to be fifty million, but right now we only have..., how much do you have? What about Ling Yao, how much can he gather? Or, can you borrow more? Loans perhaps?"
At the ntion of money, Liang An felt his head throb with anger, "Those who breached their contracts, wait for it, I’ll make them regret everything they did today sooner or later. As for money, Ling Yao and I together can scrounge up about ten to twenty million, that’s all of our savings, and all that I can borrow."
"You an, these twenty million include all your favors and connections?"
Liang An’s face turned a bit red: "Yes, that’s all, sorry girl, this old uncle here hasn’t been very capable these years, can’t compare with your second-generation rich genius status!"
Hua Yan shook her head, "There you go again, what second-generation wealth, can I really be considered as a second-generation rich? I can mobilize ten million at any ti, and I have several properties. If they can be sold within a year, I can gather another ten million, totaling forty million, which can support initial shooting. For the remaining ten million afterward, we still need to think of a way ourselves. Or maybe it won’t be necessary, but it might require more than that too, let’s take it as it cos, solutions are figured out by people!"
"You still want to sell properties? Are you planning to put all you have into this drama?"
Hua Yan nodded, "Either succeed or die trying, I’m all in, investnt has risks, one needs to be cautious when entering the industry, doesn’t it? At worst, we’ll start from scratch again!"
Liang An was initially hesitant, indecisive, but seeing Hua Yan, a re fifteen-year-old girl, having such confidence and courage, what was there left for him to hesitate about?
Thinking of this, he softly patted her shoulder: "You little girl are not simple, we n are less responsible and courageous than you, alright, I’ll go back tonight to discuss with Ling Yao. He’s currently engrossed in reviewing his coursework, seems to have given up on this industry entirely, I’ve got to rekindle his hope, after all, even a fifteen-year-old girl like you bears such responsibility, how can we lag behind you?"
Thinking about Ling Yao, his career was relatively smooth since debut, with his uniquely charming face, his developnt was ahead of many, so this blow to him was a significant setback. Such a proud and rebellious person, how could he endure such humiliation?
Feeling angry, having an aversion to this industry, are all natural reactions; only those who have experienced setbacks can understand more and move cautiously after resurgence, thus every stumbling block on life’s road does not necessarily an adversity, perhaps it will lead to a rebound in life?
