Indeed, this world is unfair.
He also wanted to make friends with rich people.
After seeing President Huo and his wife off, Director Qiao carefully moved to Ji Yingdi's side, looking at his smug smile, and whispered, "Ji Yingdi, are you a young master from a wealthy family who's here to experience life?"
Being able to grow up alongside the richest man only proves that Ji Yingdi's family background is also quite good.
Upon hearing this, Ji Pingtao glanced at Director Qiao and said, "No, I'm not."
“My parents are President Huo’s driver and housekeeper, which is why I was able to grow up with President Huo. Calling me a childhood friend is just President Huo being too kind.”
After he finished speaking, he sighed and said, "I am so poor that I need President Huo's financial assistance to study abroad and complete my studies."
He spends money like water. When he was studying abroad, his parents and older brother stopped giving him pocket money. When he ran out of money, he could only call Huo Xiaoqi and ask him for help.
During the years she studied abroad, Huo Xiaoqi spent no less than a million yuan.
Of course, after returning to China, he earned money from filming and returned it to Huo Xiaoqi.
After hearing this, Director Qiao rolled his eyes: "I'd be a fool to believe you. This guy is definitely a rich kid from a wealthy family who's just trying out life."
Director Qiao secretly thought that if he couldn't get close to President Huo, he could at least try to get close to Actor Ji during filming.
Who knows, he might be able to attract investment for his next film through Ji Yingdi.
With this in mind, Director Qiao secretly began to plan for the future.
No matter what, we must get Actor Ji onto our ship. With the power of capital, this ship will never sink.
Director Qiao wanted to get Ji Pingtao on board.
Ji Pingtao was thinking about how to make this film well, and he absolutely couldn't let Xiao Sangsang lose money.
He looked at Director Qiao, who had other plans in mind: "After signing the contract tonight, hurry up and get Bai Jingshu out of the crew, and then find another actress with ability and appeal to replace Bai Jingshu."
“I know what you’re thinking. If you want to work with Mrs. Huo a second time, you have to go all out this time and do things perfectly to ensure that Mrs. Huo doesn’t lose money.”
After saying that, Ji Pingtao chuckled and said, "If we lose money this time, don't even think about cooperating with us again."
Upon hearing this, Director Qiao's expression turned serious. He nodded and solemnly assured her, "We will absolutely not let Mrs. Huo down."
As long as the funding is in place and the investors don't interfere with anything in the production team, he can make this film very well.
Mrs. Huo has just assured us that she will absolutely not interfere in anything related to the production team, and that is the most important thing for Director Qiao.
The worst thing you can do when making a movie is for investors to interfere or even bring in people halfway through filming.
Ji Pingtao nodded: "There are still a few people in the crew with connections. Let's terminate the contracts of all those who don't have good acting skills."
Those people with connections are all incredibly arrogant.
Director Qiao nodded in agreement: "After signing the contract tonight, I'll immediately go and discuss it with the other people. We'll change everything that needs to be changed."
Ji Pingtao nodded. Since they were going to change actors, he didn't need to film his last scene today. He quickly changed his clothes and went to meet up with Huo Xiaoqi and his wife.
When Ji Pingtao returned to the hotel, he found Bai Jingshu waiting there. He frowned slightly, pretended not to see the woman, and brushed past her.
Upon seeing this, Bai Jingshu's face instantly turned gloomy and ugly. She walked over and blocked Ji Pingtao's path: "What did you just say to the director in the office?"
She had a feeling that something bad was going to happen, and she couldn't stay on set, so she came to find Ji Pingtao to ask him what was going on.
Ji Pingtao glanced at her indifferently: "If you want to know, go find Director Qiao. Don't block my way here. I have no obligation to solve your problems."
Bai Jingshu frowned: "Don't forget, my father is the investor in this film."
"If it weren't for Director Qiao protecting you, I would have kicked you out of the crew long ago. What right do you have to be so arrogant and willful here!"
Ji Pingtao chuckled twice and reached out to push the person aside: "A good dog doesn't block the way."
Bai Jingshu staggered a few steps after being pushed by him, gritted her teeth, and wanted to explain things to Ji Pingtao.
Ji Pingtao turned to look at Bai Jingshu: "If you keep pulling and tugging at me, I'll call the police immediately and tell them you're harassing me."
Bai Jingshu was furious: "You shameless person, stop trying to make yourself look good. Who would even look at a little movie star like you?"
Ji Pingtao scoffed, "If you don't like it, then get lost. Just looking at you annoys me."
Just then, Bai Jingshu's assistant ran over: "Sister, something's happened."
Bai Jingshu was already annoyed, and hearing her assistant's words made her even more irritated. Without thinking, she slapped her assistant across the face: "Stop yelling here."
The assistant was stunned by the slap. She covered her face and looked at Bai Jingshu: "The director just said that we should pack our things and leave the crew immediately. He wants to terminate your contract."
"What? Qiao Yifan is crazy! He actually dared to terminate my contract!" Bai Jingshu's face twisted in shock upon hearing the news. "He actually dared to terminate my contract? Isn't he afraid my father will withdraw his investment?"
The assistant, who had just been beaten, sneered inwardly upon hearing this: How ridiculous, he thinks only his father is rich in the whole world.
If Director Qiao dared to terminate the contract, it proves that he has already found another job.
Bai Jingshu doesn't know how to reflect on her own actions; instead, she's here grumbling and cursing.
The assistant cursed Bai Jingshu countless times in her heart, but dared not show it. She whispered, "Sister, I heard that Director Qiao has already found a new investor."
"This new investor is even more powerful than Boss Bai. He invested 300 million yuan at once, and if that's not enough, he will continue to invest more."
