Shen Dong spoke up, “My requirement is if ‘The Battle Tiger’ performs well at the box office, when you start shooting ‘The Battle Tiger 2’, you must give me a certain investment quota.”
Shen Dong knew that if ‘The Battle Tiger’ brought in five hundred million at the box office, it would have increased tenfold to a staggering five billion.
Once ‘The Battle Tiger’ became a hit, Wu Jin would not have to worry about funding for ‘The Battle Tiger 2’, as many major capitals would definitely come knocking.
By then, his chances to invest would probably be gone.
Therefore, he needed to plan ahead and sign an agreement with Wu Jin.
Hearing Shen Dong’s terms, Wu Jin was first taken aback.
It turned out he had been overthinking it; Shen Dong had no intention of forcing anyone into the crew.
Thereupon, Wu Jin asked, “Mr.
Shen, do you think I’ll shoot ‘The Battle Tiger 2’?”
Shen Dong nodded and said, “I just heard you say ‘The Battle Tiger’ is indeed very good.
You have your ideals and persistence, and not only do you have confidence in the box office, but I also have confidence in ‘The Battle Tiger’s’ performance.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have invested twenty million.
If it does well, you should make ‘The Battle Tiger 2’.”
Wu Jin smiled and nodded, “Indeed, if ‘The Battle Tiger’ has a good box office, I’ll make it a series and start shooting ‘The Battle Tiger 2’ as soon as possible.
No problem, I agree to your condition.”
Next, both parties discussed the investment quota for ‘The Battle Tiger 2’, and in the end, Wu Jin gave Shen Dong a relatively high investment percentage.
Afterwards, the three left the cafe, found a law firm, had a lawyer draft the contract, and signed it then and there.
Right after that, Shen Dong transferred twenty million to Wu Jin.
Upon receiving the money, Wu Jin’s heart settled down.
With this twenty million, he could make the ‘The Battle Tiger’ he envisioned.
He had not expected that his trip to Hai City would turn out so wonderfully.
This Mr.
Shen was truly his savior.
“Mr.
Wu, Qin Haiyang is my high school classmate.
He is devoted and passionate about acting, and now he’s an actor in your crew.
If possible, I hope you can take care of him a bit,” said Shen Dong.
“No problem, as long as it doesn’t affect the quality of the movie, I’ll give him a few more shots and let him say a few more lines,” Wu Jin readily agreed.
This investment wouldn’t have been possible without Qin Haiyang.
Giving him a few more shots and lines without compromising the quality of the movie wasn’t asking too much.
“Thank you, Shen Dong,” said Qin Haiyang gratefully.
For a minor actor like him, even one additional shot or line was extremely precious, not to mention a few.
This might even change the course of his acting career.
“We’re old classmate; you don’t need to be so formal,” said Shen Dong with a smile.
“Little Qin, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have had the chance to secure Mr.
Shen’s investment.
The promise I made just now will be fulfilled.
From now on, as long as I make movies, I’ll consider you first for roles.
If it’s a movie directed by someone else, I’ll also recommend you whenever there’s a suitable opportunity,” said Wu Jin.

“Thank you, Mr.
Wu,” said Qin Haiyang gratefully.
With Wu Jin’s word, his future path in acting would be much smoother.
After all, as a veteran in the film industry, the resources he had were beyond the wildest dreams of a minor actor like him.
Put bluntly, even if ‘The Battle Tiger’ were to fail, Wu Jin would still have movies to shoot.
Having Wu Jin’s recommendation meant Qin Haiyang wouldn’t have to worry about not having roles.
Perhaps a minor role might one day make people take notice.
In the film industry, it’s all about exposure.
Sometimes, just one exposure can completely turn things around.
“Don’t mention it.
Although you play a minor role in the crew, I see your passion, focus, and professionalism.
As long as you stay true to yourself and keep at it, I believe your path will only get broader, and eventually, you’ll make a place for yourself,” encouraged Wu Jin.
“Mr.
Wu is right,” said Shen Dong.
“Mr.
Shen, it’s almost lunchtime.
Let’s have lunch together,” invited Wu Jin.
“Sure,” Shen Dong did not decline.
It was a good opportunity to chat with Wu Jin and learn more about the film industry.
After all, he was now an investor in the film industry.
The more he knew, the better, with no downside to it.
The trio found a nice private kitchen and had lunch before parting ways.
Shen Dong returned to his company.
There wasn’t much to do in the afternoon, so he stayed at the office.
After work, he went home with Chen Yuyan.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the month.
That day,
representatives from various insurance companies in Hai City had gathered at the Guanwei Building.
The office of the Ao City Chamber of Commerce was located there.
The representatives from these insurance companies were there for the insurance business of the member companies under the Ao City Chamber of Commerce.
It was an insurance policy worth hundreds of millions, and every company wanted to secure it.
The Ao City Chamber of Commerce decided to hold a public bidding to review the insurance plans of the various companies before deciding which one would be awarded the business, thus securing the best deal possible for the Chamber.
As the representative of Anmei Insurance Company, Chen Yuanfu came here.
At the entrance, he encountered Chen Yuting, which surprised him.
Today, Chen Yuting was dressed in a professional suit, exuding a capable aura and looking every bit the career woman.
“Yuting,” Chen Yuanfu greeted her.
He was the representative for Anmei Insurance at this bidding.
Actually, he wasn’t holding out much hope.
He had heard that the Ao City Chamber of Commerce was holding a tender, but it had in fact already decided on a particular insurance company.
As for which insurance company had been predetermined, he didn’t know; he was just going through the motions.
What he hadn’t expected, however, was to see Chen Yuting.
After all, Chen Yuting was just a junior salesperson at Xinbang Insurance.
What was she doing here?
He suddenly thought of something and quickly asked, “Yuting, are you the representative for Xinbang Insurance?”
“Yes,” Chen Yuting nodded with a smile, “Uncle, if I secure this business, I hope you won’t hold it against me.”
“How could I?” Chen Yuanfu said, “I never had any expectations to begin with; I’d be delighted if you won it.”
He was inwardly astonished.
Chen Yuting making such a statement indicated she was confident.
Could it be that Xinbang Insurance, where Chen Yuting worked, was the predetermined company?
“That’s good to hear.
I’ll head in now,” said Chen Yuting with a slight smile as she entered the Guanwei Building.
…
Shen Dong, having nothing else to do, was at the finance director’s office working with his wife.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
He saw that the call was from Zhou Chengyu and answered it.
“Shen Dong, where are you?” Zhou Chengyu asked.
“At the company.
What’s up?” Shen Dong replied.
“Which company are you at?” Zhou Chengyu inquired further.
Although he knew Shen Dong had started a media company, he had never asked where it was located.
“At the Fuli Building, on the twentieth floor, Dongyan Media,” Shen Dong said.
“Okay, I’ll come to you,” Zhou Chengyu stated.
“Sure,” Shen Dong hung up the phone.
He didn’t ask what it was about.
Since Zhou Chengyu was coming over, he would just wait for Zhou Chengyu to arrive and explain then.
If it was something that could be discussed over the phone, Zhou Chengyu wouldn’t be making the trip.
