Chapter 90: The Matchmaking Bureau
“Uncle Zhao, what a coincidence. I’ve also been promoting celebrities recently. I can ask you for some advice.”
Jiang Zhi met director Zhao’s shocked gaze, raised the corners of her lips, and mocked, “Speaking of which, we have the same hobbies. I also have good-looking and sensible boys by my side. It’s just that Uncle Zhao has a lot of bed partners. I’m more monogamous, so I still need to learn from you!”
Director Zhao slammed the table angrily and pointed at Jiang Zhi. He raised his voice and shouted, “How can you be so inconsiderate!
“As a woman, you should take care of and serve men!
“Director Jiang, I’m afraid we can’t continue with this. Let’s cancel the agreement we made a while ago. You can refund the advance payment to me!”
Director Zhao was so angry that he wanted to leave. However, Father Jiang grabbed him in a panic and glared at Jiang Zhi with a flattering smile on his face. He said, “Don’t! This child is just really good at talking. She’s just spouting nonsense!
“If she has a lover outside, as a father, how could I not know?”
Father Jiang took Director Zhao’s anger in his stead. Director Zhao’s expression softened a little, but there was a hint of disdain and selectivity in his eyes as he sized Jiang Zhi up.
He still cared about what Jiang Zhi had said about hanging out with men. He crossed his legs and pointed at her in front of everyone, saying, “We can continue to cooperate.
“But I want to check the goods. If she’s a piece of trash that everyone can use, this business…”
Ziiip..
The ear-piercing sound of someone dragging a chair could be heard.
Jiang Zhi’s beautiful eyes darkened. Anger surged in her eyes. She pushed the chair away and kicked his exposed penis twice!
Director Zhao cried out in pain. He covered his crotch with his hand and tried to curse.
Jiang Zhi raised her hand and slapped him hard twice. Director Zhao was seeing stars…
Jiang Zhi rubbed her red palm and turned to look at her father, who was still in a daze. She said coldly, “I’ve enjoyed the meal.
“As for Director Zhao’s medical expenses, I’ll have to trouble you to pay for it!
“Director Zhao, I advise you to go to the hospital to check on your health. If your body is emptied out by the little fairies outside, I’m afraid you’ll only suffer in your old age!”
After Jiang Zhi said that, she left in a carefree manner.
Director Zhao and Father Jiang’s quarreling and cursing could be faintly heard from the living room. It was as if an antique vase had been smashed by someone.
Jiang Zhi frowned unhappily and rushed back to the set. She happened to see Lu Mian, who was standing next to Director Zheng, staring at the monitor after the filming had ended…
She grabbed Lu Mian’s elbow and said, “Follow me, I have something to ask you!”
Lu Mian was confused, Director Zheng and the assistant director were stunned. Seeing Jiang Zhi’s ugly expression, they shook their heads sympathetically, thinking that Lu Mian was going to be reprimanded for doing something wrong.
Jiang Zhi took him to a corner and hooked her arm around Lu Mian’s neck. She pressed the back of his neck down with her hand and kissed him on her tiptoes!
Lu Mian was confused, but he still cooperated. Jiang Zhi calmed down a little and murmured, “In comparison, you’re better!”
“He actually called me back and introduced me to an old man as a blind date! This is…”
Lu Mian understood. He grabbed her shoulder, pushed her against the wall, and leaned over to kiss her. He bit her as if he was punishing her. “Don’t compare me to them!”
Jiang Zhi let him kiss her so hard that she felt suffocated. She secretly regretted her impulsive behavior.
…
During the break between filming, Jiang Zhi transferred the 10 million RMB investment to Director Zheng’s account.
Director Zheng was shocked. She explained, “Since Star Glory has decided to invest in your next project, they won’t withdraw their investment for any reason. This money is to show their sincerity and let you be rest assured.”
Jiang Zhi’s expression was serious. Director Zheng knew that she really wanted to participate in the production, so he was honest with her.
“The production team of ‘Beacon’ would be fully assembled soon. All the details of the script are being refined and perfected. According to the plan, the next movie needs to be organized within half a year. An investment of 10 million is definitely not enough. The upfront cost of setting up the scenes, as well as the money paid in advance to the special effects company…
“The remaining 50 million needs to be in place within three months.”
“If Star Glory is having trouble, I advise you to think about it again. Even if I have to give up my dignity to pull in some investments…”
Director Zheng considered Jiang Zhi’s situation and felt that her situation was not optimistic, so he tried to persuade her.
Jiang Zhi felt great pressure, but she still insisted on it. She said softly, “Director Zheng, don’t worry. I will think of a way as soon as possible.”
Director Zheng sighed. Jiang Zhi heard the phone in her bag vibrate. She looked down at the screen and saw the words “Yan Zhang” written on it.
