The leader of Deyun Junior Team? I quit!

Chapter 394 Eating alone is not a good habit

"Director Guo, I am the representative of XX Film and Television Company. We hope to cooperate with you."

While listening to the phone, Guo Qilin recorded the information of each investor in his notebook. These capital injections gave him hope for the project, but they also brought a lot of pressure. He knows that every investor expects high returns, and the risks in the film market are so high.

At this moment, a familiar number appeared on the caller ID - it was his father Guo Degang. Guo Qilin's heart moved and he quickly answered the phone.

"Dad, why did you call?" Guo Qilin was a little surprised.

"Qi Lin, I heard that you are planning to make a blockbuster movie and have attracted many investors." Guo Degang's voice revealed a trace of concern.

"Yes, Dad. I didn't expect so many people would be willing to invest." Guo Qilin answered truthfully.

"This is a good thing, but don't take it lightly." Guo Degang said seriously, "These investors are here for high returns. You have to ensure the quality of the film to earn their trust."

Guo Qilin nodded: "I know, Dad. I will do my best."

After hanging up the phone, Guo Qilin fell into deep thought. He knew that while these capital injections brought hope, they also meant greater responsibility and pressure. He has to ensure the quality of the film to satisfy these investors.

At the same time, Guo Qilin also realized that many of these investors wanted to make quick money by leveraging his fame. They may make various demands and even try to interfere with the production of the film. This is a huge challenge for Guo Qilin.

In the following days, Guo Qilin began to have in-depth communication with each investor. He tries to understand their true intentions and expectations while also showing them his determination and abilities. After some hard work, Guo Qilin successfully reached cooperation intentions with several powerful investors.

However, just as the movie was about to start, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared in front of Guo Qilin. He claimed to be a representative of a large film and television company and was willing to provide a huge capital injection for the film. But the condition is that Guo Qilin must shoot the movie according to their requirements.

Guo Qilin looked at the mysterious figure in front of him, filled with doubts and uneasiness. He knew that once he accepted this condition, it would mean that he would lose control of the film. But he couldn't refuse this attractive capital injection.

At this moment, the mysterious man slowly spoke: "Mr. Guo, I understand your hesitation. But I can assure you that our demands are not excessive. We just hope that the movie can be more in line with market tastes and audience preferences."

Guo Qilin frowned: "But the movie is my work, and I have my own creative ideas and style."

The mysterious man smiled slightly: "This is not a contradiction. We can make some fine-tuning while retaining your creative concept and style. I believe this will not only meet your requirements, but also make the movie more successful."

Guo Qilin fell into deep thought. He knew this was a difficult decision, but he also understood that he could not give up this opportunity easily. He had to find a balance that allowed him to maintain his creative freedom while still making the film a success.

However, at this critical moment, Guo Qilin discovered something strange about this mysterious figure...

In Guo Qilin's studio, the atmosphere seemed extremely solemn. He sat at the table with the contract handed over by the mysterious man in front of him. Every page of the contract is densely packed with terms, many of which are specific requirements and changes regarding film production. Guo Qilin tapped his fingers lightly on the table, which was his habit when thinking. His eyes wandered back and forth between the contract terms and the mysterious figure, trying to find some clues from the other person's expression.

"Mr. Guo, I know this decision is not easy for you." The mysterious man's voice was low and powerful, seeming to penetrate Guo Qilin's heart, "But please believe that our request is not to interfere with your creation. But I hope the movie can achieve greater success."

Guo Qilin raised his head and looked directly into the eyes of the mysterious man: "I understand what you mean. But the movie is my child, and I have the responsibility to protect it from any harm."

The mysterious man smiled slightly, as if he was not surprised by Guo Qilin's answer: "Of course, we respect your decision. But please consider it. These changes may make the movie more in line with market tastes and attract more audiences."

Guo Qilin was silent for a moment, and he understood that the mysterious man's words were not unreasonable. In this era of commercialization, the success of a film often depends on audience preferences and market response. But he couldn't let go of his love and persistence for movies.

At this moment, Guo Qilin's cell phone rang again. It was a call from his good friend and one of the starring actors in the movie.

"Qi Lin, I heard that you have been in some trouble recently?" The voice on the other end of the phone was full of concern.

Guo Qilin sighed: "Yeah, I'm considering whether to accept those changes."

"I think you should stick to your own creative ideas." His friend's words made Guo Qilin's heart move. "After all, this is your movie, your hard work. If you can't even protect your own work, what's the point?"

After Guo Qilin hung up the phone, he became more determined in his thoughts. He knew that he could not give up his principles for the sake of immediate interests. He decided to communicate with the mysterious figure again, trying to make the movie a success while maintaining creative freedom.

However, when Guo Qilin faced the mysterious figure again, he found that the other person's attitude seemed to have become tougher.

"Mr. Guo, I hope you can understand that we are not discussing with you, but giving you a choice." There was a hint of threat in the voice of the mysterious man, "If you do not accept these changes, then we will withdraw all capital injection.”

Guo Qilin's heart sank to the bottom. He knew that if he lost this investment, the film would not be able to continue filming. But he couldn't accept the other party's request, which was a huge challenge for him.

At this moment, Guo Qilin's cell phone rang again. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was an unknown number. His heart moved and he answered the phone.

"Hello, hello. Who are you?" Guo Qilin's voice was filled with doubts.

The voice on the other end of the phone was low and mysterious: "Mr. Guo, I know you are facing a difficult choice now. But what I want to tell you is that you are not alone. Some people have been silently supporting you and are willing to provide you with help."
