The director thought the translator was pretty, so he suggested cutting the budget, taking a loss himself, and letting her play the lead role. As a result, the translator gave him a severe dressing-down.
In the morning, in response to the current situation, Lu Feng called everyone to the conference room for a meeting to assess their current understanding of Rohm Semiconductor Group, especially their internal situation.
Based on information gathered from various sources, it seems that apart from Watanabe Shi, no one inside the company really cares about Ruixin Lab. Moreover, due to the bursting of the economic bubble, they need funds to recover and are also motivated to sell Ruixin Lab.
Around 2 PM, the young translator knocked on Lu Feng's door, went in, and said, "Mr. Lu, everyone has been found."
"How are the actresses? Are they pretty?" Lu Feng asked. He knew that to get the fish to bite, the bait had to be good.
"Here are some photos, would you like to see them?" The translator girl clearly misunderstood him and said, "We can pay a little more."
"What did you say? What did you say?" Lu Feng grinned and said to her, "Do you think I'm that kind of lecherous man?"
The translator was a little confused. "Isn't that right? You were more flamboyant than anyone else at the bar that day."
“There’s no need to explain to you. Once you truly understand me, you’ll realize I’m one of the few lotus flowers in the world. Don’t think of me that way. There’s no need to meet; it’s inconvenient for me to show my face. Let me show you a photo,” Lu Feng said to her.
The translator handed him the photo. Lu Feng glanced at it and realized she was indeed beautiful. He sighed inwardly, thinking, "Such a good girl, what a waste that she's doing this kind of work."
"No problem! To avoid any unforeseen complications, let's get it done today. Is the venue set up? Cameras, voice recorders, and so on?" Lu Feng inquired.
"Everything is arranged."
Lu Feng stood up, glanced at the time with a playful expression, and said, "Actors in position, the hunt begins!"
They gathered Liu Cheng, Jin Tingting, and a few others, rented a van, and parked it next to the cultural and creative leisure park not far from Rohm Semiconductor Group. The director had already familiarized himself with the script, and the exciting drama was about to begin.
Inside the car, Jin Tingting watched Lu Feng and Liu Cheng staring intently at the entrance of the headquarters building. She felt somewhat embarrassed. This matter was a bit absurd. Although they were doing serious business and the methods were a little unseemly, the excited look on their faces really left her, a girl, at a loss for words.
"Is this method really going to work?" Liu Cheng's eyes were sore from staring at the screen, and his excitement had diminished considerably.
"It will definitely work. No man can refuse such a request. This plan is not something I came up with on the spur of the moment, but a classic scam that actually happened in China." Lu Feng said casually. There really was such a case, and quite a few people fell for it. Another classic street scam is when a pretty girl says she lost her wallet while traveling and asks for some help. She promises to repay double when her parents send money.
Jin Tingting and Liu Cheng's gazes changed, staring at Lu Feng with suspicion. What did he do before?
"What are you two looking at? Why are you staring at me like that? I'm a respectable person!" Lu Feng raised his voice.
"You're not a fraudster?" Jin Tingting looked at him and teased, "Then you've been scammed before. No matter which one, you're not a good person."
"I heard it from someone else!" Lu Feng explained, but seeing their expressions, he knew it was useless to explain; they didn't believe him at all.
Liu Cheng was secretly worried about the company's future. He wouldn't be surprised if the police reopened the case and arrested Lu Feng.
"He's out!" Lu Feng saw Watanabe Shi walk out. He was not tall and had a slightly plump figure. He walked out and his eyes wandered over several pretty girls until they were far away before he reluctantly turned his gaze back and headed towards the parking lot.
Inside the parking lot, the translator and the director were already waiting. When Watanabe Shi approached, the director hurriedly went up to him and greeted him, "Sir, please wait a moment. Is it convenient for you to do me a small favor? I'm a director of a 'small film'."
Watanabe Shi, who had been looking impatient, opened the car door and was about to get in when he heard the words "short film." He stopped abruptly, looked at the director with a smile, and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Sir, we're looking to shoot a workplace-themed video, something with professional attire..."
"Oh, oh, oh, I get it, I get it!" Watanabe Shi gave a lewd smile and nodded repeatedly.
"We're currently short of a male lead. I wonder if you'd be willing to make a sacrifice for art? Of course, we'll give you some compensation, but it won't be too much." The director said, looking at him.
Watanabe Shi got excited, never expecting such a good thing to happen to him. But he wasn't stupid; he immediately sensed something was wrong and asked, "Then why don't you go up yourself?"
“I originally planned to do it myself, but with my appearance…” The director looked troubled and said awkwardly, “I don’t look like the boss. We were originally planning not to film it, but when we saw you, we thought we’d come over and ask if you would be willing to help.”
Now that you mention it, the plot seems to make sense. Watanabe Shi couldn't hide his joy and asked, "Can I meet the female lead?"
"Ya Mei!" the director called out towards the distance, then waved and said, "Come here for a moment."
A slender, sweet-looking girl walked over, wearing a black business skirt, a white shirt on top, high heels, her hair tied up, and black-rimmed glasses. She bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your help. My name is Yamei. Please take care of me."
