But Xu Mingjing, as Tan Mo's aunt, did not mention a word.
The call at this time was also about Yuan Keqing.
What about even just a mention of Tan Mo's competition?
Xu Mingzhen even suspected that Xu Mingjing didn't even know that Tan Mo was having a competition.
Not to mention Tan Mo's biological grandmother, Mrs. Xu, who didn't care at all.
The more Xu Mingzhen compared himself to the Wei family, the more disheartened he felt towards his own family.
Xu Mingjing's eyes shifted, and she said, "Yes, this is Jinqi's first play, and I don't know how it will turn out."
Xu Mingzhen could guess why Xu Mingjing knew that.
The official Weibo account of this drama was created before the filming started.
The official Weibo account released the cast and shooting schedule of the drama.
Since Yuan Keqing wanted to be an actor, Xu Mingjing naturally paid more attention to this aspect.
"I'm very confident in Jinqi." Xu Mingjing said with a smile, "I see this drama is a seasonal series. This season has finished filming, and there will be a second season, right?"
"It's hard to say now. We have to see the results of this season's broadcast." Xu Mingzhen said lightly.
"Oh, aren't you investing for several seasons at once?" Xu Mingjing asked.
"How could that be possible?" Xu Mingzhen thought to himself, "What good are you thinking?" "Investors' money doesn't just come out of thin air. Of course, it depends on the first quarter's performance."
"That's definitely no problem." Xu Mingjing smiled. "Sister, if we can film a second season, I'll ask Old Yuan to invest. We don't want our nephew to have to accept the opinions of outsiders and compromise on many things with the investors."
"There's still no sign of a second season," Xu Mingzhen said. "But it was very difficult to get investment for the first season. People saw that Jinqi was a newcomer with no previous work, so they didn't want to invest in him for fear of losing money."
"We're still struggling," Xu Mingzhen said, deliberately pretending they hadn't managed to secure much investment. "If you're interested, why not invest now? My family invested 100 million yuan, and it was gone before we even saw a dent."
"If your family invests another 100 million yuan, it won't be much, but any relief will be appreciated," said Xu Mingzhen.
Tan Wenci was driving. When he heard Xu Mingzhen's words, he took a look.
On the other end of the phone, Xu Mingjing laughed dryly. "This...this can't be right? The show has been filming for such a long time, and now you're saying there's not enough investment? If it's really not enough, then wouldn't filming be possible?"
"Hey, just like you are busy looking for a movie for Keqing to film, how can we really watch Jinqi not be able to continue filming? We have to grit our teeth and continue to invest. But this is really not a small amount of money, and our family really can't afford it ourselves." Xu Mingzhen sighed heavily.
Tan Wenci took another look.
After hearing what Xu Mingzhen said, he almost believed it.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Mingzhen said in a cheerful and hopeful tone, "Mingjing, since you're so kind, and we're sisters, I won't be polite to you. Why don't you invest a little too? It's not much, just 100 million. If Jinqi can be frugal, it can last for a while. Jinqi was really reluctant to spend every penny of his previous investment, but now there's not much left. If you invest a little, it will help Jinqi solve his urgent needs."
"You also said that Jinqi should not be bothered by outsiders. I'm here, so I'd like to thank you on behalf of Jinqi." Xu Mingzhen said.
Xu Mingjing was shocked.
She hasn't agreed yet!
I originally thought that if there was a second season, it would have to be because the first season was a good success.
They invested a little in the second season and considered it an investment.
You can make money back no matter what, it's a sure win business.
You can also take the opportunity to build connections and relationships with the entertainment industry.
In the future, I will be able to find a way to arrange for Yuan Keqing to bring in funds to join the group.
It wouldn't be like it is now, with a lot of money but unable to find a way out.
Moreover, he could rely on his own investment and be considered an investor, so he could get Yuan Keqing to play an important role.
Now the relationship between their family and the Tan family is not what it used to be.
Simply speaking of family affection, whether it is Tan Jinqi, Tan Wenci or Xu Mingzhen, I am afraid that none of them would agree to let Yuan Keqing join Tan Jinqi's crew.
Until now, Xu Mingjing still can't forget that Wei Zhiqian took revenge on Yuan Keqing and caused her to fail the college entrance examination.
Xu Mingjing brought Yuan Keqing to plead for mercy, hoping that Tan Mo would talk to President Mu of Peking University and make an exception to admit Yuan Keqing.
But the Tan family refused to agree no matter what.
Even Xu Mingzhen, her biological sister, rejected her without hesitation.
Even when Xu Mingzhen knew that Wei Zhiqian had deliberately ruined Yuan Keqing's college entrance examination in order to vent Tan Mo's anger, he did not feel the slightest bit of guilt, and even felt that Wei Zhiqian had done nothing wrong.
What's more, they even kicked them out!
Xu Mingjing thought that she would never forget this incident.
It was for this reason that Xu Mingjing was certain that if she continued to use family ties as an excuse, Xu Mingzhen would definitely not agree.
That's why she thought about investing. The investor had to arrange someone to come in, and it had to be a relative of hers.
It would be hard to refuse to talk about chess.
It's just an investment for the first quarter, and the risk is too great.
Just as other investors were concerned, Tan Jinqi was a disciple of a famous coach.
But even if he is a disciple of a famous director, he is not the famous director himself.
Who knows what he has learned.
Many of the famous directors in China have sons, daughters and apprentices.
But few of them have truly become famous.
The saying goes that a master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you, isn’t that what it means?
Before Tan Jinqi, he had no works and no experience in independent directing.
As a result, the first drama is said to be such a large-scale production. Who can invest with confidence?
The Yuan family didn't want Fang Xi to invest anymore.
What to do if you lose money?
It's not the Tan family, it's for his own son. Even if he loses, he has to grit his teeth and accept it.
Moreover, even if the Yuan family invested, it would be impossible for them to arrange Yuan Keqing in.
Isn't this a waste of money?
Xu Mingzhen even made the numbers one hundred million or two hundred million sound like one thousand or two thousand.
The Tan family doesn't feel any pain in taking out this money, but the Yuan family will feel the pain!
Why do something that costs money but brings no benefit?
"This... Sister, this matter also needs to be discussed with Lao Yuan. I can't make the final decision." Xu Mingjing said, "Lao Yuan has made some money over the years since he started working on his own, but compared to your family, it's far less. One hundred million or two hundred million is easy for your family to come up with, but how can we have that much money? It's all invested in the company."
"Is that so? Then fifty, six, seven, or eighty million would be fine too." Xu Mingzhen pretended not to understand and said, "You just said that you felt so sorry for Jinqi. As his aunt, you definitely wouldn't refuse to help him, right?"
Xu Mingjing had no choice but to speak frankly.
She didn't believe that Xu Mingzhen really didn't understand and was just pretending to be stupid in front of her.
