I'm in Love Apartment, and the system is making me cultivate immortality.

In the conference room.

The silence remained, but the expressions on everyone's faces were completely different from before.

An additional investment of 200 million!

In addition, we're co-producing a TV series with Shanghai TV station!

This is an absolute big investment in the industry, considering that the entertainment industry is not yet ready to become a place for capital to pursue profits.

The initial investment is fine.

The key is the joint production with Shanghai TV. It may not sound like much, but this is a newly established company that has only recently been founded and is barely out of the ground.

This kind of treatment is usually reserved for large film and television companies, yet it's happening to their company.

What it means, no one is unaware of.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh inwardly, realizing that Director Wang had indeed walked too fast.

If I had left later, the outcome might have been completely different after hearing these two pieces of news.

Qin Yumo was also somewhat surprised, and glanced at Gu Yifan with her beautiful eyes.

What surprised her was Gu Yifan's earlier mention of additional funding.
Two hundred million? I didn't know Gu Yifan was that rich.
Miss Qin felt a sense of disbelief. How old was Gu Yifan? He was only in his early twenties.

but
Looking at the composed Gu Yifan, Miss Qin's heart, which was filled with admiration for strength, couldn't help but pound.

The undeniable confidence emanating from this young man is becoming increasingly captivating.

No wonder Yifei's personality has gradually become gentler; it feels so good to be able to completely trust and entrust someone to.

Qin Yumo's posture even changed slightly, transforming from a majestic empress into a gentle and tender wife in an instant.

She's waiting for her man to stand up for her!

On the main seat.

Gu Yifan took in all the changes in everyone's expressions.

Having achieved the desired effect, he smiled and continued speaking.

"This collaboration with Shanghai TV station is with my old acquaintance, the award-winning producer Ms. Lisa, who will also serve as the producer of this series."

Everyone: "."

Wow, the top producer at the TV station is someone you know, and he's also the producer of this show.
Why didn't you say so sooner that you had this relationship!
Some of the people present knew Lisa; she had invited them, but they were unaware of their relationship.

Lisa, you kept this from me for so long!
Combining these two points, some clever people suddenly realized...

Could it be that this young boss deliberately ousted Director Wang?
Used to make an example of someone?
Anyway, it's a co-production, and their company won't get the lion's share, so forget about directing or anything like that.

At best, they would recommend some actors and send other staff to join the production team for training.

Therefore, there's no need for Director Wang at all.
It seems that this suddenly appearing new boss is definitely not to be underestimated.

Gu Yifan's next words also indirectly confirmed the guess.

"Our company is relatively new, so this collaboration is mainly about learning and getting to know each other, laying the foundation for future independent projects."

After Gu Yifan finished speaking, he looked at the group of people who were still staring at him blankly and frowned slightly.

"Aren't you going to take notes?"

The middle managers of the new company seemed to wake up from a dream and hurriedly took out paper and pens to start taking notes seriously.

Seeing this, Qin Yumo couldn't help but smile. It seemed that having a man at home was better than being single.

The meeting continued throughout the entire noon.

They stayed open until three or four in the afternoon.

After all, it's a new company and a new project, so there's a lot to do.

Gu Yifan instructed the human resources department to try to sign some veteran actors and artists who have good acting skills but have never become popular. Even if they can't be signed immediately, they can still maintain good relationships with them.

These veteran actors saved on training time and were able to get started directly.

Their acting skills are probably no worse than those of celebrities; the only difference is a lack of opportunity.

Another option is to send company employees to work on film sets and learn from them.

Midway through the meal, Qin Yumo asked the front desk to order a boxed lunch and have it delivered.

The receptionist came in carrying two stacks of boxed lunches, and her eyes nearly popped out when she saw Gu Yifan sitting at the head of the table.

It was only later that I learned that Ms. Qin was not the real boss of the company; the real boss behind the scenes was actually this handsome man who looked even younger than her.

When she closed the door and left, she still looked somewhat bewildered.

That person, isn't he the boss's friend? How come he's in the meeting room too?

Even Boss Qin sat to the side like a secretary, taking notes!

Back at the apartment, before Gu Yifan could even go to see his aunt, she came to his door first.

"Yifan, how's that media and film company you and Yumo started doing lately?"

Hearing Youyou's question, Gu Yifan was a little surprised, but thinking that perhaps Teacher Zeng had told Youyou about the TV series, he smiled and asked deliberately.

"It's fine, what's wrong, Youyou?"

My aunt looked a little embarrassed and shook her head hesitantly, "No, no, I was just asking."

"Just asking? Then why ask this?" Qin Yumo, who had returned with Gu Yifan, jokingly asked.

Gu Yifan had already told her that he was going to persuade Youyou to sign with their company and let her play the female lead.

But good things often come with difficulties. If we told Youyou right away, wouldn't we lose some of the joy?

Miss Qin is indeed someone who grew up sleeping in the same bed as Gu Yifan; their thoughts are quite similar.

Seeing this, Tang Youyou finally spoke up, saying somewhat shyly, "Okay, I just wanted to ask if your company hires actors or artists."

I've honed my acting skills in the theater for so long.

She still dreams of becoming a movie queen, but the first step to becoming a movie queen is to have a company and an agent.

Unfortunately, Youyou was originally just an extra, and the company she signed with was just like an agency, helping to promote some third-rate productions.

They take a cut from it.

However, every cloud has a silver lining. Gu Yifan and Miss Qin's media company gave her hope again.

"If you're hiring, can I apply for an interview? I guarantee my acting skills are excellent right now, please give me a chance, director!" Youyou said eagerly.

Gu Yifan was somewhat surprised. "Hmm, what's wrong? Didn't Teacher Zeng tell Youyou about it?"

"What did you say?" Youyou looked bewildered.

Gu Yifan and Miss Qin exchanged a glance. Hmm, it doesn't seem like an act.
Qin Yumo, in a playful mood, picked up the topic and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Since Youyou wants to join our company, of course you can. But we need to get this straight beforehand. Business is business, after all."

Upon hearing this, Youyou immediately became excited and nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, "Of course, of course!"

“Very good. First of all, Youyou, you are an artist in the company, just like everyone else. You need to obey the company’s management and regulations.” Ms. Qin said in a very formal tone.

Gu Yifan naturally realized that Miss Qin was teasing her aunt, so he suppressed his laughter and remained silent.

After listening, Youyou nodded without hesitation, "Don't worry, boss, I will never expose our relationship outside. I'm like a brick, I'll be moved wherever I'm needed!"

Miss Qin was amused by Youyou. "Youyou is talking to you about something serious, don't do that!"

Youyou looked a little aggrieved; she was quite serious, after all. Gu Yifan nudged Miss Qin's arm, signaling her to hurry up, or he wouldn't be able to hold back his laughter.

"Alright, also, the roles you play, Youyou, are all assigned by the company, so you can't have any objections," Ms. Qin continued.

Upon hearing this, Youyou hesitated slightly.

The hesitation stems from the concern that many unscrupulous agencies might exploit this to force actresses to take on revealing roles.

However, she thought again that Gu Yifan and Sister Yumo were probably not that kind of people, and their character was guaranteed.

We're all friends, so surely no one would actually do that.

Thinking of this, Youyou nodded firmly, "Don't worry! I promise to obey the company's arrangements!"

Seeing this, Qin Yumo perhaps felt it wasn't challenging enough, and her eyes darted around.

"In that case, Youyou, you have to obey the company's arrangements and go live in the staff dormitory. You'd better think it through, because you might not be able to see Guangu again."

You'd better think this through.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Youyou fell into complete hesitation.

With a blush, Youyou asked softly, "Yu Mo, could you make an exception for this?"

Seeing this, Qin Yumo knew that Youyou had taken the bait, and immediately asked, "Youyou, didn't you just say that you would accept all the arrangements?"

“That’s right.” Gu Yifan couldn’t help but say, “When it comes to new recruit training and everything, everyone will be living in the dorms. It’s not good for Youyou to be the only one who gets special treatment.”

Upon hearing this, Youyou looked conflicted and remained silent for a long time.

Although being an actress has always been her dream, and she is willing to give it her all.

But now she's really hesitant.

Even Youyou herself didn't know why she hesitated, but even if she didn't want to agree.

Youyou took several deep breaths, preparing to agree, but the words caught in her throat.
"Okay, Youyou, go back and think about it first, and we'll talk about it when you've thought it through." Gu Yifan was almost bursting with laughter; he really couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Alright then," Youyou said with a disappointed expression, preparing to leave.

Just then, Wanyu pushed open the suite door and walked in.

"Hey, Gu Yifan, you're back. Youyou, you're here too."

"You're back so early today?" Gu Yifan said in surprise.

Wan Yu nodded, "My parents are coming to Shanghai in a few days."

"Huh?" Gu Yifan was a little surprised. "Your dad's here too?"

Wan Yu nodded. "That's right. Didn't I tell you before that they came back to attend the government's business conference?"

Although he had said it, Gu Yifan was still somewhat uneasy at the thought of facing Lin's father again.

After all, he not only stole someone's daughter, but now he's ended up in this mess.

"It's nothing, I was just surprised," Gu Yifan said quietly.

Lin Wanyu chuckled to herself, "Hmph, this rascal, how about it, all sweaty now!"

Her parents are indeed coming, but they will only stay for a few days. They also need to go to Hong Kong and Chang'an for inspections.

The schedule is very tight; we can only meet once at most, and we might not even have time to eat together.

Seeing this, Youyou silently turned around and prepared to go back to her suite first, as she was ready to think carefully about her future.

Just then, Lin Wanyu noticed that Youyou seemed a little off and asked curiously, "Youyou, why do you look unhappy?"

"No, no, I'm fine," Youyou said.

Lin Wanyu: "."

Do I look like an idiot? You can tell I'm not paying attention.

Lin Wanyu then congratulated her with a smile, "I've heard about it, congratulations, Youyou."

"Huh? Congratulations? What?" Youyou looked at the elated Wanyu with some confusion.

Seeing this, Gu Yifan knew that his teasing of Youyou was about to be exposed.

really.

Lin Wanyu said matter-of-factly, "It's about being the female lead."

Youyou's mouth dropped open. "What female lead?"

Lin Wanyu was even more puzzled. She glanced at Gu Yifan and Miss Qin and asked directly, "Gu Yifan, haven't you told Youyou yet?"

Seeing this, Youyou felt a mix of doubt and excitement, and quickly looked at Gu Yifan.

“Okay,” Gu Yifan stepped forward to explain, “Yu Mo Company is preparing to co-produce a TV series with Shanghai TV Station. Shanghai TV Station will provide the script and direction, and our company can request some roles.”

Youyou was a little dazed by the news. Her eyes widened, and then she asked in a bewildered and amused tone, "What does this have to do with whether I'm the female lead or not?"

Miss Qin stopped teasing Youyou and took her arm. "Of course it's related. If you're the female lead, you'll have to go with the crew to film, and you won't have to stay in the dormitory."

"So, when I asked Youyou if you were willing, it seems you really are still deeply in love with Guan Gu, and you're not even happy to be apart for a little while."

Although Youyou had some guesses, she was still so excited that she couldn't speak when Miss Qin actually told her the news.

"You...you're not kidding me, are you? Really? You're planning to make me the female lead?"

“That’s right.” Miss Qin nodded. “Since you want to join the company, you have to obey management. Now, I want you to play the female lead in the detective comedy ‘Reversal Hero.’ Are you willing?”

Tears welled up in Youyou's eyes. Even if she was slow to react, she now knew that Yu Mo had just been teasing her.

Which actor doesn't want to be the lead? Does she need to be forced to obey company rules? She's not some superstar.

"Don't cry, Youyou," Gu Yifan said. "If Guan Gu sees this, he'll think we're bullying you."

"Waaah, thank you all, thank you Yu Mo, thank you Yi Fan, thank you all." Upon hearing this, Youyou couldn't hold back her tears any longer, and they streamed down her face.

Crying bitterly.

After all, only he knows the hardships and struggles he has endured since becoming an actor.

Before coming to the apartment, she was almost unable to afford food or housing, so she had no choice but to seek refuge with her eldest nephew.

But after moving to the apartment, her life gradually improved, and now she is about to go from a minor supporting role to the leading lady in a TV series produced by Shanghai TV station!
With such a difference in their circumstances, Youyou is filled with gratitude, and it's normal for her to break down in tears.

Seeing this, Gu Yifan stepped back a bit, giving Miss Qin and Wanyu time to comfort Youyou.

After more than half an hour, Youyou cheered up again.

Find Gu Yifan.

"Thank you, Yifan, thank you for giving me this opportunity."

It seems that Miss Qin also told Youyou that Gu Yifan secured this opportunity for her.

"It's alright. We're going to do a joint production anyway, and our company doesn't have any new talent to train. It's better to give it to you, Youyou, than to let someone else benefit from it," Gu Yifan said with a smile.

"However, the director will still interview you, Youyou, so you need to be prepared," Gu Yifan said solemnly.

Youyou nodded emphatically after hearing this.

"Don't worry! I will definitely seize this opportunity! I definitely will!" (End of Chapter)
