Chapter 488 I Have Money
Running Youth was nominated for the Golden Bull Awards several times but didn't win a single award. Xia Yingsui wasn't completely disappointed, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.
That day she went to school to find Gu Siqing, gave her a list, and said, "I'm planning to make a TV series. Please see which one is more suitable."
Gu Siqing looked carefully at the book list she had made, and then asked, "Do you want to make money or win an award?"
Sometimes, a film or TV series that is popular with the public may not be recognized by the expert judges. This is because the expert judges evaluate a film or TV series based more on the connotation, artistry, and other aspects.
Xia Ying was a little conflicted. She wanted to make money and win awards at the same time. Finally, she said, "If I want to make money, which one is better?"
Gu Siqing smiled. We were all ordinary people. Compared to fame and money, money was of course more important. She put the list aside and said, "If you want to make money, you won't shoot these."
Xia Ying frowned, "Then what are you filming?"
"Martial arts." Gu Siqing said, "I suggest you get the film and television rights to Mr. Jin's classic martial arts novels as soon as possible."
Xia Ying's eyes lit up when she heard this. "That's right! Xiao Si, how come you are so smart?"
Gu Siqing: I was reborn, so of course I know the future market trends.
Xia Ying was very particular about efficiency. She said, "I'll go to the Su family soon to see if they can introduce me to Mr. Jin."
Mr. Jin is from Hong Kong, and the Su family has roots in Hong Kong, so I think they can make an introduction.
"Xiao Si," Xia Ying looked at Gu Siqing and said jokingly, "Tell me, how did you manage to get a partner so early?"
Gu Siqing: "Then tell me, who do you want to get into your bowl, and I will teach you my experience."
Xia Ying spread her hands, "No."
With that she left. Gu Siqing looked at her back and sighed, "What a person with a story!"
The afternoon was full of classes, and after school ended at 5:30, Gu Siqing rode her bike home. As she approached a roast duck restaurant, she could smell the delicate aroma of meat. But seeing the long queue outside, she hesitated to join the queue.
The aroma filled her nose, making her mouth water. She parked her bike at the roadside parking lot and queued up to buy roast duck. Since she had to queue once, she could buy a few more.
This shop was really busy, and she had been waiting in line for nearly half an hour. When it was finally her turn, Gu Siqing said generously, "Master, five please."
The chef glanced at her, then looked at the three roast ducks on the counter and said, "If you want five, you'll have to wait another five or six minutes."
Gu Siqing thought that she had already waited for half an hour, so another five or six minutes wouldn't hurt, so she said, "Okay, I'll wait a while."
The wait lasted more than ten minutes, and by the time she finally got the duck, it was already getting dark. She divided the five ducks into two portions, placing one in the basket in front of the bike and the other hanging on the handlebars, and then she rode home.
It was getting dark, so she rode quite fast. When she reached an intersection, a tricycle suddenly rushed out from the inside. She was knocked to the ground before she could brake. Her head hit the ground heavily, and her whole mind felt extremely confused.
Gu Siqing struggled to stand up, but someone covered her nose and mouth with a towel, and then she knew nothing.
When I woke up, I had a terrible headache and my mind was foggy. I tried to sit up, but found my hands and feet were tied. I twisted my body with difficulty to look around.
I saw a dim light bulb hanging on the empty roof, and a large, dilapidated machine was placed not far away. Next to the machine were a mess of things. This should be an abandoned factory.
Having never experienced anything like this before, even after two lives, Gu Siqing was terrified. She was so frightened that her brain couldn't think straight. She told herself to calm down, calm down. Only by calming down could she find a solution.
After taking a few deep breaths, Gu Siqing twisted her body, leaned her head against a wall, used her buttocks to push her shoulders against the wall, and then sat up little by little.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and four people wearing hoods walked in, holding half-eaten roast duck in their hands. Gu Siqing pretended to be very scared and looked at them in horror.
"Awake?" The masked man at the front swayed a few steps forward and said, "Brothers, we're all full now. It's time to get down to business."
"Hey, I've never met such a beautiful girl before."
"It's really white, it must feel nice to the touch."
The people behind were swearing and the one in front was already unbuckling his belt. Seeing this, Gu Siqing immediately said, "I have money, I'm very rich, I'll give you money."
Upon hearing her words, the man who was unbuckling his belt stopped what he was doing, looked down at her and asked, "How much money do you have?"
"How much money did the person who ordered you give you?" Gu Siqing had already figured it out. Judging from the way these people committed the crime, it was premeditated, so she guessed that someone was behind it.
Sure enough, the masked man's eyes flickered. Gu Siqing continued, "You're all in this for the money, wouldn't it be better if you could earn more? How much did that guy pay you?"
"Five thousand," the masked man said. Actually, the other party said he would give him three thousand after the deal was done.
"Fifty thousand." Gu Siqing said immediately, "Go ask my dad for the money and ask him to exchange me for fifty thousand. He will definitely do it."
The men in the hoods gasped. Fifty thousand! They had never seen so much money before.
"Boss, fifty thousand!" The hooded man No. 2 walked up to the hooded man No. 1 and said, his eyes shining brightly.
The other two masked men were also tempted and walked over to Masked Man No. 1, their eyes gleaming with greed. Masked Man No. 1 was silent for a moment, then looked at Gu Siqing and said, "What if your dad calls the police?"
"Big brother, let me analyze the current situation for you," Gu Siqing had completely calmed down. She looked up at the hooded man No. 1 and said:
"What you're doing now may also put you at risk of being arrested by the police, but you'll only get 5,000 yuan. If you ask my dad for money, you'll also risk being arrested, but you can get 50,000 yuan. And don't worry, my dad won't call the police if you ask for 50,000 yuan. 50,000 yuan is nothing to him."
"Who is your father? He is so rich." asked a man with a hood.
"Guangming Supermarket knows about this, right?" Gu Siqing asked.
Seeing the hooded men nod, Gu Siqing added, "My dad is the owner of Guangming Supermarket."
The men in hoods fell silent again. They didn't expect to catch such a big fish today.
"You wait." The masked man No. 1 said as he turned and walked away, and the other three quickly followed. Hearing the door slam, Gu Siqing let out a long sigh, almost fainting.
