Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 801: Madly in Love

After reaching an agreement with Gu Jiahui, Sheng Tang awaited news from Liu Taofang.

She knew Liu Taofang wouldn’t let her down.

If Liu Taofang didn’t agree to her demands, Sheng Tang wouldn’t take part. In that case, he would need to secure an investment of forty to fifty million to make the film happen.

Considering the flop of his previous three films, Sheng Tang doubted that Liu Taofang could secure even three million without her involvement.

He was in an even worse situation than Luo Yishan, the original producer of "The Ascending Road."

Therefore, Sheng Tang was very confident.

She also informed Ke Fei about the situation.

"...The money President Gu lent me, we’re investing together. Once we earn money, I’ll pay President Gu back the principal as well," Sheng Tang said.

Ke Fei: "I’m not surprised at all."

As an observer, Ke Fei felt that President Gu was madly in love with Sheng Tang.

Not to mention asking for President Gu’s money, even asking for his life, he would hesitate. Yet Sheng Tang seemed unaware of how much President Gu cared for her.

Because Sheng Tang didn’t know President Gu from before.

President Gu supported an entire company at a young age; even when he was in high school, he had a tenacity, as if he had skin as hard as iron and was immune to all harm.

He placed the company’s interests above all.

However, when it came to Sheng Tang, President Gu compromised step by step without principle.

Even heroes can be swayed by beauty.

With Sheng Tang so confident, Ke Fei did not feel hopeless; instead, he had some faith in the movie as well.

He even vaguely anticipated to see what kind of miracle Sheng Tang might create.

"You’re investing so much, are you the biggest investor?" Ke Fei asked Sheng Tang, "Can Huatai Film and Television accept that?"

"They should be able to."

"If they can accept it, it’s a good thing." Ke Fei said, "Huatai Film and Television is influential and trustworthy. Their company never manipulates box office numbers or shortchanges other investors’ shares."

Sheng Tang smiled.

Two days later, Liu Taofang contacted Sheng Tang.

"...The company agreed to your terms, Miss Sheng," Liu Taofang said excitedly, his round face glistening with sweat, "According to our company’s rules, the company will take the largest investment share. If your funds are in place, our company will provide 31 million in investment, and the later promotion will also be handled by our company.

If you have no issues with that, you can send a financial officer to cooperate with our company’s finance team to handle the crew’s expenditure. As for the share you requested, the company also agreed. You can come with your agent to sign the contract anytime."

Sheng Tang smiled, raising the glass of water beside her: "Then, Producer Liu, here’s to our film being a huge success!"

Liu Taofang also picked up his glass and clinked it with Sheng Tang: "The film will definitely be a success. You have confidence, and so do I!"

Two days later, Gu Jiahui’s company sent a financial officer to officially connect with Huatai Film and Television, and Sheng Tang transferred thirty million into the crew’s account.

She also signed the contract.

It was later that Sheng Tang learned about Liu Taofang’s connections within Huatai Film and Television.

The company’s second-largest shareholder was Liu Taofang’s uncle, and the current CEO was his college classmate.

This explains why, despite the continuous flops of his three films and the unreliability of the current project, Huatai Film and Television was still willing to invest 31 million to support him.

If he were an ordinary producer, after two flopped films, he would likely be forced into retirement, let alone have the chance for a third flop.

Not to mention the fourth.

Although Sheng Tang was confident, Liu Taofang himself was also full of confidence, the film "Genius Girl" indeed seems doomed to flop.

"...Have I latched onto the big support of Huatai Film and Television?" Sheng Tang laughed and asked Gu Jiahui, "If Liu Taofang manages to turn things around, will I have a place in all future Huatai Film and Television productions?"

Gu Jiahui: "The premise is that Liu Taofang turns things around! If this movie flops again, you’ll be blacklisted by Huatai along with him."

Sheng Tang: "..."
