Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested novel Chapter 377

Chapter 377: Chapter 376: I Have a Friend

Not to mention, the entertainment industry was a very lucrative business to begin with.

"I’m listening."

Yun Zijin sat up straighter. If the project Chen Chuan described could move her, she wouldn’t mind putting up some money for an investment.

"It’s like this..."

Chen Chuan quickly began to brief Yun Zijin on the project’s details.

The gist of it was that he had a director friend who’d gotten his hands on a script he was thrilled with. But because his friend was just an unknown, small-time director, he couldn’t secure any funding.

So now, they had the director and the script, but the cast and filming locations hadn’t been decided.

This was mainly because there was no investment. Otherwise, they would have already started casting.

"I’ll have to see the full script before I can decide whether to invest."

Yun Zijin might have a lot of money, but she was no fool who’d throw it away.

From Chen Chuan’s description, his friend was a talented but unrecognized soul who now needed Yun Zijin to give him a hand.

But the world was full of talented, unrecognized people. Yun Zijin didn’t lose her head just because Chen Chuan was deliberately playing the pity card.

"Of course! I’ll call him right now and have him send me the script."

Of all the investors Chen Chuan had approached, Yun Zijin was the first person who hadn’t rejected him outright.

He had read parts of his friend’s script, and from his professional perspective as an industry insider, he believed it could win awards if filmed well.

"Sir, your Wangyou Milk Tea.

Boss Yun, Boss Qin asked me to bring this to you."

The employee first served a cup of Wangyou Milk Tea to Chen Chuan, then placed the other cup from the tray in front of Yun Zijin.

"Alright, please thank Boss Qin for me!"

Yun Zijin knew that Qin Sitong had seen Chen Chuan’s Wangyou Milk Tea being served and had someone bring her a cup as well.

Otherwise, she would have had to just sit there and watch Chen Chuan drink his milk tea the whole time. Just thinking about how awkward that would be was cringeworthy.

"You’re welcome."

After delivering the drinks, the employee turned with the tray and headed back to the counter to continue serving other customers.

"My friend... he often doesn’t check his phone, so it might be a little while."

Chen Chuan stared at his WeChat screen, which remained stubbornly void of any new replies. Feeling a bit awkward, he quickly offered an explanation to Yun Zijin.

Yun Zijin nodded in understanding.

Because Chen Chuan’s friend was taking so long to send the script, the atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became strained.

"This might be a bit forward, but if the script does catch your eye, Miss Yun, do you have a budget in mind for the investment?"

Chen Chuan was really putting his heart and soul into pitching for his friend.

"That depends on the script."

Scripts of different genres require different budgets.

A fantasy series, for example, would definitely need a lot of money for good special effects.

Whereas a historical or serious drama would require much less than a fantasy series.

In any case, Yun Zijin had a rough idea of how much to invest in different genres.

Chen Chuan gave a dry laugh. Of course he knew the investment amount depended on the script; he was just running out of things to say and trying to break the ice.

He just hadn’t expected Yun Zijin to be such a conversation killer.

Just then, Chen Chuan’s phone chimed. He quickly opened it and, sure enough, saw a reply from his director friend.

"Miss Yun, would it be convenient for me to add you on WeChat? I can transfer the script to you."

"You can."

Yun Zijin presented her QR code to Chen Chuan and quickly pulled it back as soon as he had scanned it.
