Chapter 1153
After returning to the hotel.
Cheng Xi lay lazily on the bed, feeling dizzy.
Xu Xiao was drinking better. He sat cross-legged on the sofa and ordered takeout on his mobile phone. "Cheng Xi, what would you like to eat? The food at the restaurant was not all served just now. I'm so hungry now."
Cheng Xi thought for a while and asked, "Is there any porridge?"
"Yes, there is quite a lot of casserole porridge here. How about some seafood casserole porridge?"
"Well, please order more. Yang Shu and Tao Mufan didn't eat either."
Cheng Xi closed her eyes. After a while, Pei Yanzhou called her via video call.
Pei Yanzhou frowned when he saw her lying on the hotel bed with a flushed face, "Have you been drinking?"
"Well, I had two drinks during the dinner party in the evening, and it hurt my face a bit." Cheng Xi tried to cheer up.
Pei Yanzhou felt very distressed when she saw her. She was obviously her own woman. She didn't need to drink and socialize, but she didn't want to rely on her power at all. "Since it's a social gathering, why did you go back to the hotel so early?"
"If we can't reach an agreement, I'll just come back early." Cheng Xi said softly.
"If we can't agree, we can't agree. It doesn't matter. There's no need to embarrass yourself. Your health is the most important thing." Pei Yanzhou knew very well that she must have been made difficult tonight. Many people in the film and television industry are veterans, and Cheng Xi is just emerging. Newcomers, even if they are very popular now, they may not be taken seriously by others.
But there was no need for him to say it, it would hurt his self-esteem.
Moreover, he believed in Cheng Xi's character. Cheng Xi was the person he had ever seen who could resist temptation the most and could stick to the bottom line.
Cheng Xi said "Yeah", "I can figure it out. Anyway, this online drama can earn hundreds of millions, which is pretty good. At the worst, I will cooperate with my sister and invest in filming the drama together."
This time he invested 50 million and made several hundred million. Cheng Xi really wanted to be a producer.
"In this way..." Pei Yanzhou said thoughtfully, "Then Miss Cheng, can you let me invest and make some money along with you? I know only a few big shots in the film and television industry, so I only know you a little bit."
Cheng Xi couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I'll think about it."
The two chatted for a while, and Cheng Xi's mood improved a lot.
Just as the takeaway arrived, she ended the call with Pei Yanzhou.
...
The next day, when Cheng Xi and others were having breakfast in the hotel, Xu Xiao's phone suddenly rang.
After she answered the call, her face was heavy, "I originally made an appointment with Mr. Hu from Dot Matrix Films, but Mr. Hu canceled it at the last minute, saying that the director below had already found a costume team."
Tao Mufan said angrily, "We all came all the way here, and the time to meet was already set, and then suddenly it was canceled. You're playing tricks on us."
Xu Xiao looked worried, "Could it be because I offended Mr. Ma and the others last night? I remember what they said when we left, meaning they wanted to ban us."
"I guess so."
Cheng Xi nodded.
Xu Xiao forced himself to calm down, "It's okay. We came to Shen City to meet with people from three production companies before, but now there are only two..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Xiao's phone rang again. When she saw the call, she felt bad, "It's over, the last film and television company also called..."
"You answer it first." Cheng Xi reminded.
Xu Xiao answered the call bravely, saying that the boss was on a business trip temporarily and would make an appointment next time.
