Chapter 49. I heard that you are useless at singing and dancing? (12)

"I'm looking forward to it." Looking forward to seeing him regret, that is.

When Shi Jiu put down the script, a faint smile appeared on her lips, obviously looking to be in a good mood.

"Okay, you can leave if you’re done. I have other things to do." Shi Jiu raised her chin towards the door.

"Sister… Jiaojiao...."

Tang Yu felt very wronged. When she was looking for Qiao Qiao before, the two of them had talked all afternoon. There must be something wrong when it came to him.

It was clear that she didn't want to spend time with him.

It was also quite evident that she preferred Qiao Qiao more since the two of them stayed in the office all afternoon. Who knows if they did anything illicit?

Seeing the grievance in his eyes, Shi Jiu felt goose bumps all over her body in shock. If Tang Yu had put this much emotion into acting then his acting skills would not be so embarrassing.

"I really have something to do. I'm going to talk with the boss later."

Shi Jiu pulled out an excuse involving the boss to avoid any more unwanted conversation.

"Then I won't bother Sister Jiaojiao anymore." Tang Yu left in despair as soon as he heard that she needed to see the boss.

Shi Jiu: "......"

“Very good”, she thought, considering that in the future she could use that excuse anytime. A good boss should learn to solve problems for their employees after all.

But she really had something to talk to the boss about, and so she called the boss to encourage the boss to invest in Tianxun.

The main plot of Tianxun was well-written. The only reason why it had ended up not being well-liked in the original story was because the special effects were done poorly since the director didn’t manage to find a good investor.

The director of Tianxun was named Chen.

Director Chen had just graduated that year and had no past works to his name. Naturally, no one was willing to invest in a newcomer. Compared to someone who was new in the industry, they were more willing to invest in an experienced veteran who had made countless films and had a guaranteed profit.

Director Chen had been unable to find anyone who wanted to invest in or rather, when he did find someone, they never trusted him fully. So they just decided to give him tens of thousands, but since he wanted to make a fantasy movie, he needed a lot more because the special effects would cost a lot of money.

It is said that Director Chen paid for the copyright of the novel Tianxun himself.

Shi Jiu felt that Director Chen took his first movie seriously since he was someone who was willing to pay for the right to use the original material.

The special effects were still missing, so she would compensate for it on his behalf.

Shi Jiu encouraged her boss to invest, while she also secretly prepared to invest herself. The money she had invested was more than the boss's.

Thus she became the largest investor, and the company only ranked second.

The company's investment was not done by Shi Jiu, but by professionals.

But it was not her style to do good deeds without leaving her name. Before Star King Entertainment went to hold a meeting, Shi Jiu called and told Director Chen in advance.

When Director Chen heard that Star King Entertainment was going to invest in him, he was very excited. When he learned that it was recommended by Shi Jiu, he crazily expressed his gratitude to her on the phone, and even gave her a rainbow fart.

After Shi Jiu put down her phone, she picked out her ears. Was everyone in the director's line of work so good at compliments? Was this their way of speaking?

It made her want to invest more money.

One-third of her current money was deposited in the bank, and the remaining two-thirds were handed over to specialized companies for them to manage and invest.

She was going to put all the money she could into it.

To be honest, this was very risky. If she was not careful, then all the money Mu Jiaojiao has earned over the years would be in vain.

This was a big gamble, if she won the bet, then she could make a lot of money. But if she lost...

Well, she still had the shares of Star King Entertainment, so she could try again.

But she believed in her own vision, so Shi Jiu was confident.

Her self-confidence was not like Tang Yu, who knew the direction of the future, but after her own analysis.

While she could invest in the dramas that were destined to become popular, since she knew the plot of the original story, she still preferred to trust her own judgment, so that even if she was wrong, she had no psychological burden to carry.

Knowing the future direction could be considered as having a gilded touch but what if something unexpected happened in the future?

And she would go back sooner or later, for now she could do whatever she wanted in accordance with the original text, but what would she do after she went back?

Her future life was not a so-called novel. She didn’t know the future, and every step she took was full of uncertainty.
