64 Falling Out
It was only because they lacked some funds that they had to be introduced to CEO Zhao. They did not expect CEO Zhao to say it so bluntly and treat their hard work as a toy to make their little lover happy.
“CEO Zhao, you’re rich and imposing, so you’re not afraid of losing this bit of money. Thus, you don’t think it’s a big deal. However, this project is our hard work and bears our dreams and sweat. Giving the first female lead to Miss Wei is already our greatest concession. We can’t compromise anymore.”
CEO Zhao was so angry that he laughed. “You’re so arrogant. Without the money I invested, can your drama even start filming? How much are your dreams worth? I’ll say this today. You only have two choices. First, give the role of the second female lead to Weiwei’s cousin. After you take the money, film your drama obediently. Second, I’ll withdraw my investment from the production team. Everyone will split up. No one can play anymore.” He rolled his eyes and looked at Bai Chao disdainfully. “Which one do you want to choose?”
Everyone present froze and looked at Bai Chao.
Bai Chao pressed his hands against the table, the veins on the back of his hand bulging. “Then withdraw your investment. Go find those production teams that will listen to you!”
CEO Zhao’s face trembled. Ever since he became rich, no one had been so rude to him in a long time. He was so angry that he laughed. “Alright, you have a backbone. Go film with your backbone!”
Ignoring Wei Wei’s manager, he held Wei Wei and was about to leave. When the two of them passed by Yu Han, CEO Zhao suddenly stopped. Ignoring Wei Wei’s cold expression, he handed her a business card. “I see that you’re quite talented in acting, but there have never been a lack of people who know how to act in this industry. There are only a few people who can stand out. It’s obvious that you have to use other channels to succeed.”
“I like to help young people in trouble the most.” His lecherous gaze lingered on Yu Han’s face as he said meaningfully, “You can look for me anytime if you’re in trouble!”
Seeing that he was openly seducing actresses in the production team, Bai Chao looked down on him even more. He looked at Yu Han worriedly, afraid that she would really take a shortcut because she was young and insensible.
Fortunately, Yu Han did not take the business card. Under Wei Wei’s murderous gaze, she took two steps back. “I’m sorry, CEO Zhao. My family instructed me to go back and look for them immediately if anything happened outside. I don’t want to trouble outsiders, so I appreciate your kindness.”
Seeing that Yu Han was so insensible, CEO Zhao narrowed his eyes. “You are young and have just come out into society. You haven’t been through much, so you don’t know the ways of the world. I understand that you still have pride in your heart. However, this society is always cruel. It will teach you how to behave very soon.”
“At that time, let’s see how long you can be arrogant.” CEO Zhao sneered and left with Wei Wei in his arms.
Wei Wei suddenly turned around and looked at her with an indescribable gaze.
Yu Han saw it but did not take it seriously at all.
She did not expect so many things to happen during an ordinary audition. She turned around and looked at Bai Chao, who looked a little dejected. For a moment, she did not know if she should say that she wanted to leave.
Although it felt good to shout at CEO Zhao just now, there was something that CEO Zhao was right about. Dreams were great, but dreams also needed money to prop them up. After CEO Zhao withdrew his investment, their drama really could not start filming.
Bai Chao suddenly rubbed his face and looked at Yu Han, apologizing to her. “Miss Yu, I’m sorry for dragging you into this because of my impulse today. Although I told you that I wanted you to act as the second female lead, I don’t know if our drama can start successfully yet. Therefore, I can’t be sure for the time being. I can only ask you to go back and wait for the news.”
It would be a pity if such a good drama could not start. In the original book, without her interfering, this drama’s filming went smoothly and it became popular overnight. Seeing Bai Chao’s dejected look, Yu Han had an idea. “Director, may I ask how much is the shortfall in funding for this drama after CEO Zhao withdrew his investment?”
Bai Chao raised a palm. “About five million.”
Five million was not a lot. Yu Han scratched her nose. “Maybe I have a way?”
Bai Chao’s eyes lit up and he rushed over at a speed that was completely disproportionate to his figure. “Miss Yu, could it be that you have five million yuan and want to invest in our movie?”
Uh, of course she didn’t have five million yuan. The original host grew up in the Yu Family. It was good enough if the Yu Family didn’t think of ways to suck her blood. Why would they be so generous to give her so much money?
Yu Han shook her head honestly. “I don’t have five million.”
