Chapter 751: Chapter 741: The Fickle Fence-Sitter

The script projects on the table were neatly categorized, but Su Qing naturally didn’t look. He was merely listening to Hu Xiaoling’s recent work report.

Mainly about the company’s script project collection and the three ongoing projects the company currently has on hand.

After three on-set employees and Hu Xiaoling went on business trips, the filming of "Invisible" had the slowest progress, having completed less than thirty percent.

But this is understandable, after all, when they sought investment initially, the crew wasn’t even assembled, and the cast wasn’t complete. Now, entering the track and having nearly thirty percent finished is already impressive.

Secondly, "This Killer Is Not Very Calm" has completed eighty percent of the filming progress. He still holds quite a lot of expectations for this movie, and it’s also the one he invested the most in last time, coupled with Wen Jingqi’s part, amounting to a small goal together.

But looking at this progress, it likely won’t be ready for a May Day release, June is more possible.

After all, even if the remaining twenty percent is completed this month, editing the final product takes time too.

Luckily, Hu Xiaoling brought him good news, that is, the filming of "Life-changing Matters" has wrapped up, and it’s scheduled for the May Day holiday, isn’t that a coincidence?

It just so happens to clash with "Demon Capital Fortress." Knowing the box office results, Su Qing is naturally looking forward to hitting back at that time.

Being able to finish shooting now is also reasonable, after all, when this project came in, filming had already started, they were just attracting investments as they shot, and the progress was almost halfway. Now finishing, it makes perfect sense.

The timing is just right, serving as a means to hit back, as Su He is sure to stir something up after some time.

If he rides the heat then, he might even do a wave of self-promotion, maybe with his intervention, the box office could even float up a little.

"President Su, that’s about it, let me know if there’s anything else you need," Hu Xiaoling said as she naturally refilled his empty cup.

Hearing this, Su Qing smiled, "You’ve done very well, thanks for your hard work recently."

"These are all things I should do, President Su!"

"Hmm, recently keep an eye on the news about ’Life-changing Matters,’ if Director Wang Jiang intends to come to the capital, get in touch on my behalf, just say I’d like to catch up, no need to make a point to contact him, just wait for his news. I’ll be here for a while this time!"

Hearing this, Hu Xiaoling nodded repeatedly, "Got it, President Su!"

"Hmm, you can go out now!"

Upon this, Hu Xiaoling nodded again, then turned and left.

"So awesome, so awesome, bro, now you really look like a boss, sitting there like a man... ahem, with style!" As soon as Hu Xiaoling left, Su He jumped up in excitement.

"What do you know, what does it mean like a boss, your brother is the real deal now, this company, once I speak up, everyone has to listen!"

Su He: "Wow~~ so cool, so cool!"

In response, Tang Nan couldn’t help but laugh, "Oh yeah, as soon as he speaks, the whole company has to listen, but his company is as big as you can see with your eyes, officially employed? Just the one you saw earlier, and there are three employees of my company out helping, meaning officially, contract workers, along with him as the boss, the whole company has only five people, there’s still three outside."

Su Qing: ...

Su He: →_→

"Bro, this... is a bit low, there’s only five people including you as the boss, and three are borrowed employees from Nan, all you have is just that one employee earlier, with such a small company, let’s drop the secretary, shall we?"

To this, Su Qing coughed awkwardly twice, "What do you know, don’t look down on my small company with few staff, but I make more money than others with hundreds of employees combined!"

That’s the truth, he does film investment, it’s still a company, but essentially it’s in the form of a studio, plus core work only he can do, why so many people?

Is he supposed to work as a boss and support a group of idlers?

"But I still think Sister-in-law and Nan’s company is cool, just look at all the people, it looks so impressive, oh right Nan, you said you’d sign me up by then, do I have a chance to act in the future?" Su He evaluated the company comparison, then eagerly asked Tang Nan.

At first, Shen Yi said when she graduates, she’d open a studio for her, manage her account well, and she was very excited, but how could this compare to the grand prospects drawn by Tang Nan.

"Of course, it’s true, sister I have now also established a studio. When you graduate in the future, I’ll sign you up as an artist, and then definitely cultivate you into a big star like Reba," Tang Nan beat her chest confidently, very self-assured.

To this, Su He, just a kid who entered college less than a year ago, had never seen such big promises, was immediately confused.

"In that case, I want to act with Hu Ge, and Peng Yuyan, best if both like me, and film a romantic idol drama!"

Tang Nan: "... Ahem, this... I’ll try..."

Goodness, Su He really dares to dream, dare to eat such large promises, and let those two act with her. Not to mention, it’s an achievement even Tang Nan hasn’t reached, not even with one of them.

Seeing Tang Nan blushing, speechless, Su Qing burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter, if there was such a chance, your Nan would’ve taken it herself, would she let you have it? She hasn’t started today yet, do you think film resources are that easy to get?" Su Qing laughed heartily.

Seeing Tang Nan’s bluff being torn down, he was extraordinarily happy, this scene isn’t common.

A boss drawing big promises for future employees and getting exposed on the spot, tsk tsk tsk, makes even your toes curl at the thought.

"Come on, I’m still here, why are you mucking up my end?" Tang Nan stood up in anger and said.

Su He: "Uh... Nan, could what my brother said be true?"

For this, although Tang Nan was unwilling to admit it, she still said, "Although it’s a bit difficult, if your brother invests again in some works like ’Wandering Earth’, it might indeed be possible to get some big-name stars to act with you in the future."

This wasn’t mere talk, if Su Qing could leave an impression of "investing in a hit film every time," the quality of scripts coming his way would naturally get higher and higher, then he could easily insert people into film crews as an investor, right?

After all, an investor whose every production is a hit and has money in hand is a hot asset wherever they go, who wouldn’t want to try?

Especially for actors and artists like Tang Nan, they have to go out of their way to befriend such big shots.

After all, artists need good resources to thrive; those without resources aren’t much different from being shelved.

Not everyone can disappear like Old Hu for a few years and still come back as a superstar.

Even Tang Nan herself has seen her popularity decline considerably in the past couple of years due to less activity on the screen.

Hearing this, Su He immediately abandoned Tang Nan and rushed, ’turning to the light’ to Su Qing’s side.

"Bro~ Brother~~ Dearest brother, what I said earlier was all a lie, I was just talking to Nan, you must not take it to heart, I’m your beloved one, blood brother!"

Su Qing: ...

Tang Nan: ...
