"Given how popular this variety show is even before it airs, we conservatively estimate it could earn several hundred million."
[With profits split in half and appearance fees included, how much money must that be?]
[Several hundred million, one zero, two zeros, three zeros, four zeros... so much money!]
[Since I'm going to make money and run anyway, maybe after I pull off this big heist I should just pack my things and run away.]
[I'm a genius! I could spend a hundred million or two in several lifetimes! Great, after making this big buck, I'll achieve financial freedom, run away, and live a carefree life as a happy NPC.]
After mentally weighing the pros and cons, Song Shiwei nodded vigorously, "Okay! But I need someone to accompany me."
[Not for any other reason than I'm genuinely afraid of being hacked to death.]
[If I were to go on this kind of hate-inducing variety show all by myself, and I got accidentally kicked, there would be no one to call 120 for me. I'm really afraid of dying.]
Yun Xi paused for a moment, but then thought about it again and realized that it made sense; who knew if a madman might appear?
This group of villains is clearly just asking for trouble; if any bystanders get caught in the crossfire, that would be... well, you know.
But finding someone to sit back and watch the drama unfold isn't easy. You can't find someone from the industry, it seems fake. But if it's someone from outside the industry, they don't have much fame, and the audience might not recognize them, which could easily backfire and lead to them being criticized and becoming withdrawn. They really can't afford to lose that kind of reputation.
Jiang Ye was eavesdropping outside when someone suddenly slapped him on the back. He was so startled he almost jumped out of his skin and instinctively looked behind him.
His face was contorted with rage, and he was thinking that this person had better be in trouble, or he would really go crazy on the spot.
When he saw Jiang Lanxin, he instantly cowered; he couldn't Jiang Lanxin to offend her.
Jiang Lanxin is someone even Jiang Cheng fears; would he dare to provoke her?
He quickly asked, "Sister Lanxin, what brings you here?"
What is Jiang Lanxin doing on set? Did she come to see him?
Jiang Ye blinked his big eyes. So, it turns out that someone does care about him, Jiang Ye?
Jiang Lanxin him up and down, then said without any mercy, "Jiang Ye! Where's Weiwei?"
Jiang Ye:?
He'd been hoping for this for so long, only to find out it was about Song Shiwei? It was all for nothing!
"She's inside. Yun Xi seems to be discussing something with her," Jiang Ye said, looking constipated.
Jiang Lanxin crossed her arms, a hint of mockery flashing in her cold, beautiful eyes. "What's wrong, you brat? You're eavesdropping here, aren't you afraid Weiwei will whisper something in Yun Xi's ear?"
Jiang Ye is such a fool. Yun Xi is such a good person to him, and she even secretly started an entertainment company for him. This love-struck fool didn't even know that. He was completely fooled by this innocent girl and almost ruined his career.
If we're talking about stupidity, who can be more stupid than Jiang Ye?
"No, I just came to listen because I was worried. I'm afraid Yun..." Jiang Ye argued subconsciously, but quickly shut his mouth after realizing that what he said was wrong.
"What are you afraid of?" Jiang Lanxin looked at Jiang Ye with an expression of watching a show.
If Wild Vegetable Bro keeps hiding his feelings, then he truly deserves to miss out on such a wonderful girl as Yun Xi.
A look of annoyance flashed across Jiang Ye's face. "It's nothing, I was just passing by, don't worry about me."
If he says he's worried about Yun Xi, wouldn't that be saying he likes Yun Xi?
Yun Xi would also be harmed if she got involved with someone like him.
He is no longer good enough for Yun Xi.
"You stubborn brat, you'll regret it later." Jiang Lanxin smirked, deciding not to pay any more attention to Jiang Ye, and pushed open the door to the room, walking inside.
She strode briskly up to Song Shiwei in her high heels and hugged her tightly. "Weiwei, my darling! I have an investment opportunity with you, my darling, we're going to be rich!"
Song Shiwei:?
No, why is Jiang Lanxin also seeking investment from her?
[No way, are you trying to work me to death so I can inherit my Alipay balance?! Please, capitalists, give the kids a break!]
Jiang Lanxin gave a slight smile. "Xixi, you've been doing well lately. What were you and Weiwei talking about?"
Based on Yun Xi's sensitivity to online traffic, she was certain that Yun Xi had already discussed the variety show with Song Shiwei. She hadn't expected that even though she was already so quick, Yun Xi had still beaten her to it.
No chance? Then learn to create one. When has Jiang Lanxin never been one to snatch food from the jaws of death?
Yun Xi smiled. "Sister Lanxin, you've been doing very well lately. Weiwei and I have discussed having her participate in a variety show, and we've already agreed on it."
Yun Xi was a seasoned veteran in the business world, having navigated its ups and downs for several years. How could she not see why Jiang Lanxin had rushed over so urgently?
A man can give up opportunities, but he absolutely cannot give up opportunities to make money.
You can have any kind of man you want once you make money, but you only get one chance to make money.
"Xixi, you know I've recently made a little money, how about I invest in something too?" Jiang Lanxin smiled serenely, her rosy lips curving upwards.
Yun Xi shook her head. "No, I can give up a man, but not money."
Jiang Lanxin:???
Wait, why is Yun Xi being so direct? How is she supposed to respond to that?
She paused, then walked towards Song Shiwei with an affectionate expression, "Weiwei, your sister-in-law also wants to invest. Why don't you join my project? Let's make a gossip variety show. We'll eat gossip from the entertainment industry on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; gossip from the wealthy family circle on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays; and gossip from ordinary people on Sundays. The main theme is that we eat all kinds of gossip."
A deafening scream erupted in Song Shiwei's heart, "[No way, do you really think I'm a donkey? Our lives matter too!]"
[You guys are really going too far! I quit! Hahahaha.]
Yun Xi:?
Zhang Lanxin:?
No, how can you just quit like that? Please, sis!
Yun Xi said softly, "No, Lanxin, this would exhaust Weiwei. Should we discuss this further?"
