"No problem. This is the only script my friend has right now. All he does is study the script and try to get funding.
He knows you’re interested in investing, so he’s available anytime. Even if you wanted him to come out at midnight to sign the contract, it would be no problem at all!"
Chen Chuan knew his friend’s personality. ’That’s definitely something he’d do.’
Yun Zijin nodded. "Alright, then you and your friend should schedule a time.
I might have classes from Monday to Friday, so please run the time by me before you and your friend confirm it."
Even though Yun Zijin didn’t have a nine-to-five job, that didn’t mean she was always free.
"No problem, I’ll message him right now!"
Chen Chuan took out his phone and quickly sent a message to his director friend.
As Chen Chuan messaged his friend, Yun Zijin also pulled out her phone and started reading the script he had sent her from the beginning for a second time.
On her second read-through, Yun Zijin noticed many more of the finer details. It was clear the writer had truly poured their heart into it.
It was only struggling to get funding because the subject matter was rather niche.
For that reason, the script’s quality rose even higher in her estimation. ’If my initial assessment was thirty million, I could probably raise the investment to fifty million now.’
But... even though she thought this, she didn’t tell Chen Chuan right away.
’Whether to actually increase the investment or not will depend on the director’s skill.’
’Looks like I’ll have to visit the film set from time to time.’
’It’s an investment, after all. Of course, I need to keep an eye on the project’s progress.’
Perhaps because Chen Chuan had just messaged him for the script, his director friend was paying close attention to his phone, as a reply came back in no time.
"Boss Yun, my friend says he’s free right now. He can be here in 30 minutes, tops.
Would you mind waiting for him?"
Chen Chuan didn’t know how long Yun Zijin planned to stay at the shop, which is why he asked.
"It’s fine. I’m here to keep my friend company today, so I won’t be leaving until she gets off work. Tell your friend there’s no need to rush."
She wasn’t some slave driver; she had time to wait.
Besides, Chen Chuan’s attitude was very polite, so Yun Zijin didn’t mind giving his friend a little extra time.
Hearing Yun Zijin’s words, Chen Chuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Boss Yun, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, my friend’s script might have been dead in the water."
’With no money of his own and no investors in sight, it really would have been dead in the water.’
"It’s because your friend’s script is good. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be considering an investment."
Of course, Yun Zijin had no intention of accepting such flattery. ’If the filming doesn’t meet my expectations, I’ll consider pulling my funding.’
’She might be rich, but that didn’t give them a license to waste her money.’
Probably because he was so desperate for an investor, Chen Chuan’s director friend, who had said he would arrive in thirty minutes, showed up in just twenty-five.
When he entered the Wangyou Milk Tea Shop and saw Yun Zijin sitting across from Chen Chuan, his eyes lit up.
Gao Mi strode over to their table. "Hello, Boss Yun! I’m Gao Mi, a director!"
Gao Mi was dressed in work clothes, and his hair looked like it hadn’t been touched in days. In short... he looked a bit of a mess.
When Chen Chuan saw Gao Mi’s getup, which made him look like a homeless person, his heart sank.
’I told him he was meeting an investor, so why didn’t he clean himself up? Even if he doesn’t have decent clothes, couldn’t he at least have combed his hair?’
Yun Zijin looked at Gao Mi and blinked.
"Hello. Um... let’s move to a table for four."
