Chapter 125 The Unscrupulous Merchant



Tong Yexin raised her eyebrows, signaling her to continue; she was very interested to listen.

Shen Zhihe simply said, "Let's stop here for today. You can contact me when you've made up your mind."

"Do I have the right to refuse?" She leaned back in her chair, her expression nonchalant.

Shen Zhihe raised her phone: "I don't think you'll refuse. If this gets out, I might only lose your brother's love, but you'll lose everything you have now. What a loss, don't you think?"

Pshaw, you say it's not a threat? How is this any different from a threat?

"A swindler." She's gotten herself on a pirate ship by mistake.

Fortunately, she didn't care about those things at all; as long as the price was right, everything was negotiable.

"No merchant is honest." Shen Zhihe smiled sweetly. "I'm waiting for your news. I hope I won't have to wait too long. Bye-bye."

"At least let me squeeze something more out of the old man."

Tong's father felt indebted to Tong Wang'an, but he dared not hand over the Tong family's right to speak to Tong Wang'an.

He knew perfectly well that Tong Wang'an hated him.

Shen Zhihe nodded: "Okay, I can wait."

"Let's have a drink together another day," Tong Yexin said, raising her glass.

“Your brother wouldn’t want me to get too close to you.” After all, in Tong Wang’an’s eyes, his half-sister was no pushover and was always stirring up trouble.

Being with her will only lead me astray.

"He can't be with you 24/7."

"I want to keep an eye on him 24/7."

Tong Yexin gave her a thumbs up: "Okay, you win."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. Remember not to leave any evidence when you do bad things in the future. When you contact those two mistresses, even if you change your phone number, don't be stupid enough to use the number registered with your own ID. I'll take care of it for you this time, but you might not be so lucky next time. If your parents find out, you'll be kicked out of the house."

...

"She even called me stupid." Tong Yexin sat on the sofa in Qin Yue's office, tugging at the tassels on a cushion, and pouted.

Even before filming began, a considerable amount of funding had already been allocated for "The Wandering Swordsman". There were dedicated personnel responsible for organizing expenses such as venue rental, personnel labor, and other aspects. Qin Yue also needed to review the accounts. Only after she had reviewed and approved the larger accounts would Ding Shumin approve them and allocate funds from the project's dedicated account.

The biggest controversy surrounding this project was whether to build specific sets. According to some people, film and television bases have no shortage of buildings, so there is no need to spend money and resources, or waste time and energy to build them.

If we set up a venue, it means that the start-up process will have to be postponed again. Even if everything is simplified and the construction is done as quickly as possible, it will still take about a month.

This costs money every day.

The director meant that all the necessary sets and props had to be built. From casting the lead actors to starting filming, he was able to shoot a complete story in three months.

However, he cannot guarantee how the final result will be.

Slow and steady wins the race.

Since President Qin was willing to give her this authority, and he was allowed to make decisions regarding some filming issues, she wanted to do her best.

Qin Yue shared the same thought as him.

Everything requires care.

Such a large investment is not something to be taken lightly.

The lead actors were all selected by Star Dance Entertainment.

Shi Leyao and Qin Xu's drama has just finished filming.

Before filming wrapped, it was confirmed that Shi Yueyao would make a cameo appearance in the film.

The other actors, big and small, are all students who haven't graduated or have just graduated from professional acting schools. They are not famous and their salaries are not much, so the money saved should be spent wisely.

Furthermore, the costumes, props, and sets of the main characters must be carefully designed and recreated according to the descriptions in the novel.

Her computer screen displayed design sketches of costumes and weapons for the characters. The details were exquisite. If the finished product could match the design sketches and give people a refreshing feeling, it would be a success in terms of costumes, makeup, and props.

She was very satisfied with the design drawings. Qin Yue replied to Ding Shumin that she had no problems, and that she should communicate with the director team about the specific details of the improvements.

After switching to the computer, she slowly replied to Tong Yexin: "Your sister-in-law is right. I've told you more than once to consider the consequences of your words when you speak in public, and not to leave any handle for others to use against you. You just let it go in one ear and out the other."

Tong Yexin was displeased: "Why are you helping an outsider criticize me?"

Qin Yue: "No, to you, I am the outsider. You are not just sisters-in-law now, but also in the same boat."

"Let's not talk about her anymore." Tong Yexin pouted, clearly not taking it to heart. She got up and walked to Qin Yue's desk, picked up a proposal from beside her and flipped through it. "Isn't your project in need of money right now? I'll have some money soon, do you want me to invest some in you?"

Qin Yue: "No one thinks they have too much money, but investing is not a game. If you understand this project and think it's good, I'm naturally very happy for you to invest in it. But if you have other reasons, you should give up on this idea."

"You won't even take the money that's practically handed to you, Mr. Qin. You're not a very good businesswoman." Tong Yexin tossed the things in her hand aside, put her hands behind her back, and looked around her office.

I noticed a picture frame next to her computer and picked it up to take a look.

The photo shows Qin Yue and Lu Yanci together.

Tsk, this is so cruel to couples.

Qin Yue took the photo from her hand and put it in the drawer. Without responding to her question, she casually asked, "Are you really planning to transfer your shares?"

Tong Yexin nodded: "Yes, I've never been interested in running a company, so why would I want to get involved with this hot potato that is the Tong family? Besides..."

A thoughtful look crossed her eyes.

She also knew some of the details.

The Tong family did not always have the surname Tong.

This should have been everything to Tong Wang'an.

"Besides, my sister-in-law, who's known for her ruthlessness, has already asked, so I have no choice but to agree," she sighed.

Have you ever considered that your father might not agree?

“Not only my dad, but if my mom finds out that I gave what I have to Tong Wang’an, I’ll probably get another slap across the face. But what good is it if they disagree? My mom can’t interfere in company matters anyway. As for my dad, he doesn’t dare to openly go against Tong Wang’an. As long as the other shareholders agree, what can he say?” Tong Yexin shrugged and said indifferently.

"Let's not talk about that anymore." Tong Yexin sat sideways on her desk, twirling a pen between her fingers. "Have you seen the bridesmaid dresses Jiahe posted in the group chat?"

"I haven't seen it yet," Qin Yue said, reaching for her phone. "When was it posted?"

"I knew you hadn't seen it. It was sent an hour ago," Tong Yexin said, showing Qin Yue the pictures she had saved. "Three styles. They said we should go to the store tomorrow to try them on and choose the one that suits us. Are you free tomorrow?"
