Chapter 41: Substitution
"I heard that this Xingchen never shows up in public, doesn't participate in book signings, doesn't accept interviews, and doesn't interact with other authors. He even rarely posts on Weibo all year round. He just retweets a few promotional Weibo posts from the official Weibo account when a new book comes out."
"It's so mysterious, I always feel like there's something fishy going on."
"Isn't there a team behind him? It's like a studio co-creation."
In the afternoon, Shen Yihang visited Feng Group directly. Young Master Shen was sitting comfortably in Feng Jue's office at the moment, leaning against the sofa, with his legs crossed, sipping fragrant hand-brewed coffee with his left hand, and browsing the hot searches on the Internet with his mobile phone in his right hand, expressing his opinions and comments from time to time.
However, Master Shen analyzed the situation alone for a long time without hearing a single word from someone. He couldn't help but put down his long legs and glanced at someone with his peach blossom eyes, "Ajue, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but it's okay if you're not interested in hearing about that woman, but this Xingchen is at least related to the movie we invested in. Don't you care about it?"
Over there at the desk.
The man who had been silent all this time finally raised his head from the pile of documents, his brows as indifferent and calm as ever.
"Don't you care about me?" Feng Jue said, just glanced at him, lowered his head and continued to look at the documents in his hand.
Shen Yihang raised the corner of his eye slightly, "So from now on you just invest money and don't worry about anything else?"
"That's not the case," Feng Jue said, "If Yue Ying performs too poorly in the formal audition, you can replace her."
"Change someone?" Shen Yihang's peach blossom eyes narrowed, somewhat incredulous, "She is your only sister!"
That cheap sister Yan Ai doesn’t count, Shen Yihang quickly tried to make amends in his heart.
Feng Jue closed the document in his hand, then flipped open the drone plan next to it and began to read it. He said nonchalantly, "If it's an unimportant role, then let her build it."
Shen Yihang narrowed his eyes immediately, "No, didn't you tell me the other day that the film and television rights to these science fiction novels were acquired when you were checking them for Yingying?"
"Hmm." Feng Jue lowered his eyes and looked intently, not denying what he had said, "That's indeed the opportunity."
"You don't have confidence in Yingying?" Shen Yihang asked, "Are you afraid that she'll mess up and embarrass you?"
Feng Jue said indifferently, "Once you see her performance, you'll know."
Shen Yihang: “…”
In fact, he really wanted to say that he had already seen it. It was Feng Yueying’s graduation drama, which could be found on the Internet.
The performance wasn't great, but! Feng Yueying is the only daughter of the Feng family. If she brought money into the group, what role wouldn't she be able to play? What kind of amazing team couldn't she form?
As long as Feng Yueying wants it, the Feng family will have no problem buying her the Best Newcomer Award.
Shen Yihang knew that Feng Jue was too protective of his reputation, at certain times and in certain aspects.
"Even if Yingying doesn't perform well in her first film role, it doesn't matter. After all, she's a newcomer. Just consider it as gaining experience."
Shen Yihang felt that he could still give Feng Yueying this privilege.
Feng Jue nodded, a rare gesture. "As long as you don't mind."
Shen Yihang was about to retort, "Why would he mind?" But he immediately thought that this was Jiang Qiuning's first shot in his career after returning to China, and he really couldn't have an actor who was too much of a drag.
It seems that if Feng Yueying's performance during the audition is really bad, then he will have no choice but to... be a bad brother.
Shen Yihang didn't say anything else, put down his phone, and continued to drink his coffee quietly.
In fact, he came to see Feng Jue this time because he did have something important to discuss with him, but Feng Jue was too busy. From the time he entered the door until now, Feng Jue was either dealing with contracts or reviewing documents.
He had already finished two cups of coffee, but Feng Jue was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.
So he didn't blame Feng Jue for ignoring him, he just blamed himself for not having a finalized location for his office. It was freezing cold outside, so he had no choice but to hide at his good brother Feng's place to get some warmth.
At this time, the secretary came in again and brought hot coffee and freshly baked cakes to Shen Yihang. She was very warm and thoughtful.
But she didn't dare to disturb Mr. Feng who was working, and only focused on entertaining the distinguished guest Shen Yihang.
