Huayu 16: I Became the Dream-Fulfilling Master for Young Actresses

Looking at her expression and tone, Zhou Ye felt slightly puzzled.

The senior who was so angry just now stopped being angry after hearing that the senior had been working very hard lately? She even started to worry about him.

She hasn't figured out the relationship between Chen Xingzhou and Meng Ziyi yet.

This seems to have gone beyond the realm of ordinary friends, but the two did not engage in any intimate actions in front of her.

But isn't Senior's girlfriend... Sister Lu?

Even though neither of them admitted it.

Thinking of this, she felt a little bitter and suspicious.

"Well... Xiaoye, let's go up!"

"Senior, Sister Lu is here too, she'll be here soon."

"Egret? Hmm... okay."

……

In the elevator, Bai Mengyan looked curiously at Meng Ziyi beside her, "Ziyi, what brings you here?"

Meng Ziyi blinked, her mind racing.

She can't exactly say, "I'm here to sign with your man's studio as an artist," can she?

Whether Chen Xingzhou was Bai Mengyan's man or not, she wasn't sure, but there was a high probability that he was.

But Chen Xingzhou is also her man.

But saying that seems a bit...too arrogant?

Suddenly, the idea of ​​bringing investment to join the production team, which she had previously mentioned to Chen Xingzhou, popped into her mind. Her eyes lit up, and without thinking, she blurted it out:

"I'm here to invest in the drama that Xingzhou is preparing to film! Hmm... 200 million! And I'll also sign a contract while I'm at it."

After saying that, she patted her chest and raised her chin slightly, giving off an expression that said, "How about that? I'm awesome, right?"

She had no idea that her words might sound a bit intimidating to others.

Bai Mengyan was stunned for a moment. She had been with Chen Xingzhou for so long that she had become somewhat immune to numbers.

But Meng Ziyi's tone clearly indicates that he is saying, "I have money, I can help him."

Moreover, she used the word "investment" instead of "support," which sounds legitimate and shows a bit of business acumen.

Bai Mengyan lowered her eyes, the elevator light falling on her eyelashes, creating a shadow beneath them.

Her family really didn't have any special background. Both her parents worked, and her father was a worker at the Qiji Factory.

She didn't have much money. The 100,000 yuan she gave Chen Xingzhou last time was the last sum of money she sent to her parents.

Furthermore, the revenue sharing from "A Love So Beautiful" is settled monthly, and as an artist in her studio, she hasn't received any money yet.

Although Chen Xingzhou had already paid her the film fee, she received 30 yuan.

But whether it was Chen Xingzhou setting up his studio or preparing for filming, she could only help a little bit, and she always felt a bit unspeakable in her heart.

She has always been a very career-oriented woman, but she has no money to help her man.

But now Meng Ziyi is asking for 200 million.

Zhou Ye, who was standing next to her, knew her family background and noticed her reaction, so he immediately took a step forward.

She landed perfectly between Bai Mengyan and Meng Ziyi, and smiled at Meng Ziyi:

"Senior Ziyi, you're investing so much money in your senior?! You're really helping him out!"

"But you can talk to your senior about the investment later. Let's sign the contract first."

Meng Ziyi's attention was immediately drawn to the compliment, and she nodded with a smile, "Yes! Let's sign the contract first!"

Zhou Ye then turned to Bai Mengyan, grabbed one of her hands, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear:

"Sister Lu, the senior just said he wants to hear your opinion on some clauses in the contract. Could you also help Senior Ziyi review them later?"

Bai Mengyan looked up at Zhou Ye.

Her expression was obedient and earnest, as if she was really just conveying her senior's message.

But Bai Mengyan understood what she meant, and her heart warmed. She took Zhou Ye's hand in return and smiled gently, "Okay."

A hint of doubt flashed in Meng Ziyi's eyes as she watched the two talking intimately.

When did the two of them become so close?

Although she felt that the two of them had a good relationship before, it shouldn't be to the point where they have to hold hands at this time, right?

Her fingers unconsciously tightened around the hem of her skirt as she asked, "What are you talking about?"

Zhou Ye released his grip, smiled, glanced at the elevator that was almost at its destination, and turned to look at Meng Ziyi:

"We were talking about signing the contract, Ziyi. Let's go, the senior is still waiting."

"Oh," Meng Ziyi responded, his gaze sweeping over Bai Mengyan's face without asking any further questions, and followed Zhou Ye toward the studio.

Bai Mengyan lagged half a step behind, watching Meng Ziyi's back with a hint of doubt on her face.

Was Meng Ziyi jealous just now? ...

She wasn't sure either.

And what Meng Ziyi said in the elevator just now, he probably just felt happy to be able to help Xingzhou, without thinking about anything else.

All I can say is that she's a very simple-minded person.

……

Led by Zhou Ye, the two women walked through the work area and arrived at Chen Xingzhou's office.

Meng Ziyi was the first to push open the office door and immediately saw Chen Xingzhou.

He had his head slightly lowered, as if he were looking at documents, but when he heard the door open, he looked up.

"You're here?"

He was wearing a simple white T-shirt, with a few wisps of hair stuck to his forehead, and a faint dark circle around his eyes.

Clearly, just as Zhou Ye said, he hadn't been sleeping well these past few days.

She took a few steps inside, and even though Bai Mengyan was right behind her, she couldn't help but complain:

"Ah... Xingzhou, Xiaoye said you've been sleeping in the office all this time? Why aren't you taking care of yourself?"

Chen Xingzhou smiled at her without replying, then looked at Bai Mengyan behind her.

Bai Mengyan followed behind her, her steps visibly pausing for a moment before quickly returning to normal, then she smiled and looked at him.

"Sailing".

"Please have a seat."

Chen Xingzhou pushed the contract in front of Meng Ziyi and officially began the signing process.

She took the contract, feeling a surge of excitement.

After a long while, she looked up at Chen Xingzhou after carefully reading through the document.

"6?"

"Yes," Chen Xingzhou nodded.

A 6-year contract with a 5/5 revenue split.

Six years is not a long time, but it's not short either. More importantly, there's a guarantee from above: one female-led drama every three years.

Moreover, the contract clearly states that the quality of the female lead's drama will not be lower than that of "A Love So Beautiful".

He believes Meng Ziyi is aware of the recent popularity of the drama "A Love So Beautiful".

This is only the first drama produced by Yiyezhizhou Studio. The next drama, "Go Go Squid!", will definitely be better than this one.

For her to land a drama of this caliber in three years, her development speed alone is undoubtedly much faster than in her previous life.

Meng Ziyi subconsciously looked at Bai Mengyan, a competitive feeling rising in her heart, "Sister Bai, how many years did you sign with?"

Bai Mengyan replied calmly, "10 years."

Meng Ziyi pursed her lips, turned to look at Chen Xingzhou, and couldn't hide the jealousy in her eyes.

Chen Xingzhou glanced at her and slightly raised his hand: "Everyone's situation is different, and Mengyan got 73 points, while she got 3."
