Sheng Tang got up and sat down with Fu Qingcen in Gu Jiahui’s office.
The secretary poured them both a glass of water.
Fu Qingcen’s expression was very indifferent, always sowhat cold towards Sheng Tang.
"...President Gu is discussing another film these days, planning to invest fifty million," Fu Qingcen said. "Did you know about this?"
Sheng Tang shook her head, "No, I didn’t."
A hint of triumph flashed in Fu Qingcen’s eyes, as if she had outdone Sheng Tang.
When it ca to significant matters in the company, President Gu would still tell Fu Qingcen first rather than Sheng Tang.
Sheng Tang felt rather speechless.
She did not want to argue with Fu Qingcen and quietly took a sip of water, waiting for her to continue.
"President Gu is quite optimistic about this film and might beco its largest investor," Fu Qingcen said. "Therefore, the script was sent to our company first.
This is a romantic drama similar in style to ’Who Fears Whom in the Workplace.’ I plan to play one of the female leads. Are you interested in partnering with ?"
Sheng Tang: "..."
She wasn’t interested at all.
Honestly, though she had just beco popular, people in the film industry were very snobbish, and the resources Sheng Tang could access now could not be compared with Fu Qingcen’s.
She referred to the film circle.
In the overall entertainnt world, Fu Qingcen’s status was still far above Sheng Tang’s.
Each circle had its unique environnt. To be precise, the film industry was quite closed. Within that ecosystem, Sheng Tang’s status was higher than Fu Qingcen’s.
She had no intention to partner with Fu Qingcen but wouldn’t outright reject her and strain their relationship.
"Do you have the script?" Sheng Tang asked, "Let take a look at it first."
Fu Qingcen had indeed brought the script along.
She clearly knew Sheng Tang was here and ca specifically to find her.
Sheng Tang took it and smiled at her, "I’ll get back to you in a few days."
"Alright, I’ll be waiting for your good news," Fu Qingcen said.
Just then, Gu Jiahui returned.
He seed to be in good spirits.
Seeing Fu Qingcen, his face imdiately softened with tenderness.
Sheng Tang had known him since high school.
Just by looking at his face, she could tell he was acting. When he was genuinely happy or relaxed, he would look a bit cold or sowhat mischievous instead.
"...Want to have lunch together?" he asked Fu Qingcen.
Fu Qingcen glanced at Sheng Tang and declined, "You go ahead, I still have so things to handle."
Gu Jiahui did not insist.
They talked briefly about the film, and then Fu Qingcen turned and left.
Sheng Tang waved the script at him, "Do you know about this?"
"Let’s talk while having lunch," Gu Jiahui said, "I need to discuss it with you."
Sheng Tang agreed.
The driver drove them to a nearby restaurant, and Gu Jiahui chose a secluded private booth.
After sitting down, Sheng Tang thought of sothing that happened yesterday.
Every ti Gu Jiahui t Yang Mingming, he would tell her, ensuring smooth communication and better contract execution.
Sheng Tang recounted the overnight stay on the yacht yesterday to Gu Jiahui but omitted crucial details.
She inford him that Gu Shiting was on the yacht.
Gu Jiahui’s eyes behind the glasses glinted with a hint of cold light.
Then he feigned indifference, "As long as no one took photos, it’s fine. Let’s not talk about that. Tell about the film."
He naturally shifted the topic.
Sheng Tang felt relieved and started discussing the film with him.
Gu Jiahui ntioned the one he intended to invest in.
"It’s not my personal decision but the project proposal the producer sent over that made the company executives decide," Gu Jiahui said, "It’s a follow-up to ’Who Fears Whom in the Workplace.’
"There are probably many follow-ups, why did the company executives choose this one?"
"Because we have a trump card," Gu Jiahui said.
Sheng Tang: "..."
