Chapter 455 Good Neighbor
Everyone started sorting their cards. Xu Yusen glanced at the other three people at the table. They were either sitting with their wives or partners, but he was the only one there. He glanced at Gu Sanjing, who was looking intently at Han Zhengping's cards.
He knew about Han Zhengping's situation. He grew up with Gu Xiaosi as childhood sweethearts. Sanjing was about the same age as Gu Xiaosi, so she was naturally familiar with Han Zhengping as well.
He is not in a hurry and takes his time.
Besides, there's no point in being anxious. Gu Sanjing trains with the team every day and usually you never see him.
After playing two rounds, Zhang Zijun looked at Gu Siqing and said, "Xiao Si, I heard you are going to make a movie again?"
"Since I'm not the one making the movie, I'll be responsible for writing the script, and Sister Ying will take care of the rest." Gu Siqing said.
"Don't worry about who is responsible. How about I take a share?" Zhang Zijun said. He just thought making movies was fun.
Gu Siqing felt that it was okay to let him take a share. It was impossible for their film and television company to invest in all the movies by themselves. They would definitely need to find some external funds to diversify the risks.
She said, "I'll talk to Sister Ying later and discuss the details."
Then she looked at Gu Yimin again, "Sister, do you want to invest in one share too?"
Gu Yimin was having trouble finding a good investment project, so he readily agreed, "Okay!"
Gu Siqing stood up and squeezed next to Gu Sanjing, whispering to her: "You should also invest one share. Although I can't guarantee that you will make a profit, the chance of losing money is not high." It's just a matter of how much you can earn.
The main reason is that there are too few movies in the current film market. As long as the film is similar, it will basically not lose money. Moreover, she is very confident in her script and Zhou Guoyuan's skills. Gu Sanjing is not familiar with this aspect, but she trusts Gu Siqing and says, "Okay, you can ask our mother for money later."
Wang Yueju is in charge of her money.
"Okay!" Gu Siqing walked back to sit next to Han Zhengping, and then heard Xu Yusen say, "Can I invest in one share too?"
Gu Siqing thought about it and said, "Okay!"
With this cooperation, it will be easier to negotiate if we need funding next time.
After a few minutes of sorting out the film's funding, Gu Siqing got up and called Xia Ying to explain the situation. Xia Ying smiled and said, "With you here, I don't have to worry about funding anymore."
Gu Siqing: "After all, we are surrounded by rich people."
The two chatted for a while, and Xia Ying said that she had something to do today, and they would get together in a couple of days to talk about it in detail.
Gu Siqing came back after hanging up the phone, relayed Xia Ying's words, and then said: "But it will take some time for my script to be finished, so this matter is not urgent."
None of them cared much about it; they were just joining in the fun. After playing cards for a while, Wang Yueju came over to say dinner was ready, and everyone started to settle their accounts. It turned out that Xu Yusen was the only one who lost.
He looked at Gu Sanjing and said, "I don't have that much money with me. Can you lend me some more?"
Could Gu Sanjing say no? She took the money from her wallet and gave it to him. Xu Yusen took the money and put the watch in front of her, "I'll leave the watch here with you. You can give it to me next time I give you money."
He stood up and prepared to go to the restaurant without giving Gu Sanjing a chance to refuse. Gu Sanjing stared at Xu Yusen who had left the hall and said, "His house is next door, so it's convenient to go get the money, right?"
Gu Siqing patted her shoulder and said, "Just stay true to yourself. Let him do whatever he wants."
Now Xu Yusen is using some tricks to ignore him, but if he affects Sanjing's training, he will not be forgiven.
Everyone had a very happy lunch and chatted for a while after the meal. Su Wenshan asked to leave, but Han Zhengping said, "I won't go with you. I'll stay here for a few days."
He was about to return to the United States, so he naturally seized every minute to be with Gu Siqing.
After hearing his words, Su Wenshan looked at Gu Jianguo with a mixture of laughter and tears. Gu Jianguo waved his hand and said, "Stay here. You've been like this since you were little."
What could Su Wenshan say? Could he say, "I'm afraid my son will become your son-in-law?"
After Su Wenshan and Kong Xiuwan left, Xu Yusen said his house was next door and invited the Gu family to visit. Gu Jianguo and Wang Yueju were both busy, so they let Gu Siqing and the others go.
Xu Yusen's house is about the same size and layout as the Gu family's, but the decoration styles are completely different. The Gu family's decoration is more Chinese, while Xu Yusen's decoration is mainly European.
Not to mention, the combination of European-style decoration and the courtyard house looks pretty good.
After visiting his house, everyone sat down and chatted for a while before going about their own business. Xu Yusen didn't deliberately talk to Gu Sanjing. He knew that Gu Sanjing was currently focusing on training and might not consider personal issues in the short term.
He wasn't in a rush. His career in mainland China had just begun and was very busy. Anyway, he had made quite a few connections now, so there was still a lot of time to go.
After Gu Sanjing came back, she gave the watch to Wang Yueju and asked her to put it away. Wang Yueju looked at the watch and said to Gu Jianguo: "It seems that he is really interested in Sanjing."
Gu Jianguo frowned and said, "Take your time to read it."
He hasn't said anything yet, so he can't be the first to say that you are not suitable for my daughter. Besides, we have to wait and see whether it is suitable or not.
"Oh, what a poor child." Wang Yueju couldn't help sighing when she thought of Xu Yusen's experience.
"Everyone has their own circumstances. If he hadn't experienced those, he might not be as outstanding as he is now," said Gu Jianguo.
Wang Yueju sighed again, "I'll go make some food for Zhengping and let him take it with him when he leaves."
Two days later, Xia Ying gathered a few people together to discuss film investment. With the exception of Xu Yusen, they were all family members, so they didn't care too much. After a brief discussion, they signed the contract.
Gu Siqing was busy writing the script, while Gu Sanjing returned to the team for training. This year she was going to participate in the International Diving Championships, and the training was very intense.
Xu Yusen would occasionally find some excuses, such as a friend gave good tea to Comrade Gu Jianguo to taste, or he brought some local specialties from Hong Kong, etc.
In short, he is now a good neighbor of the Gu family.
Gu Siqing finished the script after more than two months, which took her nearly a year to complete. She showed it to Xia Ying and Zhou Guoyuan, asking for their feedback so she could make further revisions.
Xia Ying and Zhou Guoyuan were very excited after reading the script. They felt that if it was filmed well, there would be no problem with the box office.
"I want to make this movie the most fashionable, humorous and contemporary movie to date," Zhou Guoyuan said confidently.
Gu Siqing was completely confident in his abilities.
After finishing the script, she had nothing else to do. She spoke with Han Zhengping on the phone about going to Australia together this summer, as the International Diving Championships were being held there. They would watch San Jing compete while traveling.
