"We have several movies in preparation for next year and are struggling to find a female lead. Miss Su Wan from your company has been very popular lately, so I really want to discuss a potential collaboration with her. Also, if there are any investments you're interested in, I'd like to invite you to invest with us as well."
After saying this, Wang Jun crossed his hands and slowly rubbed them together.
At the same time, an expression of eager anticipation appeared on his face, as if he were anxiously waiting for Jiang Cheng to respond.
In this circle, almost everyone knew that Su Wan was Jiang Cheng's woman.
Having just arranged things for Reba, he immediately moved on to Su Wan.
Wang Jun was clearly doing this with the intention of pleasing Jiang Cheng.
In fact, Jiang Cheng knew very well why Wang Jun was making such a suggestion.
It was nothing more than wanting to use the opportunity of'sending money' to exchange for cooperation and completely break the rift between them.
Jiang Cheng frowned and asked, "Which of your movies are scheduled for release in '18?"
"Yunnan Worm Valley, Surging Waves, Lost, Found, Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings... etc. These are the ones that have been submitted."
Jiang Cheng immediately lost all interest upon hearing this.
Aside from Detective Dee, he had no impression of the other movies at all.
Most likely, they either made no splash at all or just flopped.
As for Yunnan Worm Valley, its reputation was even worse.
Filming this kind of movie would be a waste of time and might even ruin one's audience appeal, leaving people with the impression of being a 'king of trashy movies'.
As for Detective Dee, the main characters are four men, so there's no point in joining in.
Although the reviews were good, the box office was only mediocre.
Jiang Cheng shook his head and then asked casually, "Do you know Xu Zheng? I heard he's planning to film a movie next year?"
After Jiang Cheng asked this, Wang Jun assumed a thoughtful expression, then seemed to remember something.
"I know him. I think he's filming some art film called Dying to Survive or something. Is Chairman Jiang interested?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng nod, Wang Jun couldn't help but frown, then put on a look of concern for Jiang Cheng's interests.
"Chairman Jiang, to be honest, this movie is just a niche art film. The chance of it becoming a hit isn't high. The investment is small—only 100 million and it hasn't even been finalized yet. People in the industry don't really think highly of it. I heard the producers are still looking for investors. Even if you invest and it makes a profit, it probably won't be much."
Wang Lei followed up, "Exactly, Chairman Jiang. Investing in their movies isn't as good as investing in our company's. Look, the Ghost Blows Out the Light series is quite popular, isn't it? I think Yunnan Worm Valley would be very suitable for Miss Su Wan. It's not a romance film, and it has enough gimmicks."
Wang Jun and Wang Lei were trying to persuade Jiang Cheng earnestly, acting like experienced veterans.
Jiang Cheng naturally knew they wouldn't dare trick him; their words most likely came from the bottom of their hearts.
If not for the knowledge and vision he had accumulated from his previous life, he might have actually been persuaded by their words.
Jiang Cheng just wanted to complain; this was really something.
To think that Dying to Survive only had an investment of a mere 100 million, yet the final total box office soared all the way to a staggering 3 billion!
In other words, a single film raked in over two billion in net profit in one go.
Jiang Cheng waved his hand and said directly, "I value this movie because I like the theme. The concept is excellent. Even if the box office isn't ideal when the time comes, it doesn't matter. Have Xu Zheng, oh, and Mahua FunAge as well, contact me. I'm also very interested in their movies."
Seeing this, Wang Jun complained internally about Jiang Cheng's lack of taste, but on the surface, he spoke with a face full of admiration.
"As expected of Chairman Jiang, such breadth of mind and vision. It was my own narrow-mindedness. Come, let me toast you again."
A sumptuous and delicious meal was finished smoothly under the silver-tongued flattery of Wang Jun and Wang Lei.
After the meal, seeing Jiang Cheng rise to leave his seat, Wang Jun hurried to speak.
"Oh, Chairman Jiang, wait a moment. There's something I almost forgot to tell you. I've already booked the presidential suite at the Shangri-La Hotel in advance. You can check in at any time during your stay in Jingdu."
When he finished, Fan Shuishui's eyes rippled with emotion as she added flirtatiously, "That's right, Chairman Jiang, I'm staying at the Shangri-La too. I'm quite familiar with this area of Jingdu, so if you need any help, just say the word."
"Day or night, as long as you call, I will be by your side immediately to take meticulous care of you, because my room is right next to yours~"
Fan Shuishui made no secret of her intentions, her words full of provocation and suggestion.
When Reba, who had been silent as if staying out of it, heard this, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, clearly a bit displeased.
Wang Congcong, however, was full of excitement, winking and gesturing at Jiang Cheng.
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng opened Fan Shuishui's profile.
"Human-Machine Scanning System activated, acquiring target information..."
[Name: Fan Shuishui]
[Age: 36 years old]
[Height: 168 cm]
[Appearance: 90]
[Figure: 94]
[Privacy: 30]
[favorability value: 80]
After looking at the system profile, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but exclaim.
As expected of Teacher Fan, you really go for it when there's an opportunity.
