Chapter 161 A Chance to Turn the Tide
"Since he needs to have such a motive, then he has to be the leader of this anti-fan group who ran away with his girlfriend."
A slight smile finally appeared on Lin Heisei's face: "You've confessed?"
"He confessed."
"Okay! You've worked hard. I'll have someone transfer the money to your card later."
Lin Heicheng hung up the phone, and the smug smile on his lips grew wider and wider.
Having finally resolved Lin Manxi's troublesome matter, Lin Heping couldn't help but start pondering again, thinking about the situation between Gu Yishen and Luo Jia these past few days.
He and Sega were absolutely unwilling to give up such a great opportunity to operate.
Moreover, although Lin Manxi caused this scandal, now that there is a waiter willing to take the blame, they no longer have any concrete evidence to say that Lin Manxi was responsible for this.
This way, Lin Manxi will still have a chance.
Whether netizens believe it or not, the best proof is that Lin Manxi will be completely unscathed when the case is closed.
Although Lin Manxi is currently in the eye of the storm, Lin Heping believes that with his daughter's looks and background, if he can take advantage of this situation and reshape Lin Manxi's image, it will definitely bring greater and more lasting benefits to Lin Manxi and Sega.
Lin Heisei rubbed his chin and picked up the landline on the table again.
"Hey, Secretary Zhang, go and compile a summary of all the projects that have recently been contacted by companies, whether we've already taken them on or not. Send it to my office as soon as it's done."
"Okay, Mr. Lin."
...
Secretary Zhang was very efficient; in less than an hour, he had prepared what Lin Heicheng had instructed.
After receiving the documents, Lin Heisei couldn't wait to start flipping through them.
Most of the items recorded in these documents were ones that Lin Heping had seen. However, at that time, Lin Heping was just doing his job. Lin Manxi hadn't caused any trouble yet, and Gu Yishen hadn't had any involvement with Luo Jia.
Lin Heicheng flipped through the pages one by one. Secretary Zhang hadn't seen Lin Heicheng so focused and dedicated to his work in a long time.
Lin Pingcheng had already looked through many projects, but he was not very satisfied with any of them, and he gradually began to feel a little irritable.
Just then, Lin Heisei suddenly stopped flipping through the papers.
"This project is..."
Secretary Zhang stepped forward and glanced down at the investment project that Lin Heping was pointing at.
"Oh, Mr. Lin, this is an IP copyright they bought from 'Zhongdian Chinese Network'. It was a huge hit ten years ago, but due to the market environment in recent years, it has never been fully developed."
"What kind of content is it?"
"Two male leads".
"Oh? Two male leads...?"
Lin Heisei's eyes lit up: "Are there any female characters with significant roles in this game?"
"I remember there should be a female lead."
Lin Heisei once again focused his gaze on the documents in front of him. While looking at the proposal, he tapped the table alternately with the index and middle fingers of his right hand.
Secretary Zhang has been with Lin Heping for quite some time and knows him very well.
Upon seeing Lin Heisei make this small gesture he often made when thinking, he knew that Lin Heisei was probably interested in this project.
"Mr. Lin, I'm going to get a script from them. Would you like to take a look?"
"Mm." Lin Heisei nodded.
Upon hearing this, Secretary Zhang responded and left to make the contact.
Two male leads...
Wouldn't this be perfect for Gu Yishen and Luo Jia to star in this drama?
If Lin Manxi could play a more important female role in the same drama, then the three of them working together on the same show would not only boost the popularity of Gu Yishen and Luo Jia, but also indirectly help clear Lin Manxi's name.
After all, if it were really as netizens say, that Lin Manxi plotted to harm Luo Jia, then why would Luo Jia agree to co-star in a TV series with Lin Manxi?
If this deal goes through, Sega won't even need to do much public relations. With just a little push in public opinion, the "rumor" that Lin Manxi framed Luo Jia will be debunked.
Then, give Luo Jia more benefits and compensation. If they can also win Luo Jia over to become an artist under Sega, then Sega Entertainment will have another top-tier artist.
This makes it even more likely that Sega will surpass other companies like Starlight Entertainment and expand into the leading entertainment giant in the country.
Thinking of this, Lin Heicheng couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
If it succeeds, Sega will have turned misfortune into a blessing in disguise.
As long as Lin Manxi can become popular, then even if her current image isn't great, she'll still have a chance to turn things around.
That's how this industry works; as long as you're alive, you have a chance to turn things around.
After all, the internet has no memory these days. The fact that Gu Yishen, Luo Jia, and Lin Manxi worked together so well and skillfully on a drama is enough to make everyone forget about those unclear scandals.
If this drama is managed well, Lin Manxi could very well become one of the top actresses in the entertainment industry.
After all, Lin Heicheng, as a qualified and successful businessman, knows all too well what the market likes now.
As Lin Heicheng was happily thinking this, Secretary Zhang knocked on the office door again.
"Come in."
Secretary Zhang walked in with the printed script. He was good at reading people and noticed that Lin Hesheng seemed to be in a very good mood.
"Mr. Lin, this is the script for 'The Invisible Dawn.' I've also sent an electronic copy to your email."
"Hmm, not bad." Lin Heicheng was in a great mood and readily praised Secretary Zhang.
"Mr. Lin, is there anything else you need?" Secretary Zhang asked.
"Go and contact them first to see if you can get this project transferred over here."
"Uh... Mr. Lin, do you mean we should take over this project? This... I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult," Secretary Zhang stammered, a troubled look on her face.
Lin Heicheng frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure appearing on his face: "What? Do they think they have too much money? Tell them that as long as they transfer the project to us, Sega will definitely reward them handsomely and purchase it at a huge cost."
"No..." Secretary Zhang smiled wryly, "President Lin, I think the other party may not have intended to sell this IP at all. They probably just wanted to attract our investment by handing over the project."
