Hello, Ms. Funina

"That being said, it does fit well..."

Arecino fully played the role of a supporting actor, and she responded positively to Xavier's words.

By the way, during this process, Arecino also kept an eye on Funina's expression.

"Ah... but who would have thought that there would be a problem with the funds? Now... how can I explain this to Miss Chiori and the actors who came all the way from Inazuma!"

Xavier sighed, and he lowered his head, very frustrated.

"Chiori? Mr. Xavier, are you talking about the owner of the clothing store [Chiori House]?"

Arecino asked.

"Yes, Ms. Peruvian. It's her... Miss Chiori was specially invited by me to be the artistic director of Yingyingzhong, and she is also responsible for the image design of the actors in Yingyingzhong that I host."

Xavier nodded and said.

"Ah, it's her! I know her... Miss Qianzhi is a famous fashion designer in Fontaine, but there are always many controversies about her designs. I personally don't care about it."

Funina said at the right time.

"In my impression, she designed the clothes of Miss Navia of the Thorn Rose Society. I also want to ask her to design a set of clothes."

Alechino looked sideways. Funina's praise for Qianzhi was not unexpected.

After all, as an executive [servant] of the Fatui, Alechino is in charge of intelligence.

It is no exaggeration to say that there is almost nothing about Fontaine that she doesn't know. Her eyes have long been all over the seven countries.

After this Thousand Spirit Shadow Festival, Alechino will leave Fontaine for a while, because her [eyes] have discovered some incredible things in Mondstadt.

"Since Lady Funina also admires Miss Qianzhi, I will lose if I don't visit her."

Alechino curled her lips and said.

"Well... what do you think of Miss Chiori? She speaks directly and does things very efficiently. The fashion industry in Fontaine calls her the "Thundering Brocade Master"."

"Miss Chiori's clothing design is extremely outstanding. Because of this, many people in Fontaine have developed a strong interest in Inazuma."

"Speaking of which, this cross-border projection is also thanks to Miss Chiori. The actors invited from Inazuma are all people Miss Chiori knows. She is really a kind-hearted lady."

Xavier smiled and praised sincerely.

"Inazuma's actors... I'm a little curious about their identities."

Funina touched her chin, and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes.

Although she has lived for five hundred years, Funina has never left Fontaine once.

Even though she has seen many foreigners, she is still very curious about foreign scenery and foreign friends.

"Haha, why don't you... Lady Funina and Ms. Peruvian come with me to the patrol ship terminal to greet them? According to the time, they are here too."

Xavier smiled, put one hand on his chest, and made a sincere invitation.

...

Let's go to the patrol ship terminal in a flash, which is not far from Momang Palace.

On the platform, a woman in strange clothes seemed to be waiting for her friends.

"Miss Qianzhi..."

Xavier took Funina and Alechino to the woman and called her.

"Well... you talked to the investor very quickly, and the patrol ship hasn't arrived yet."

Qianzhi heard someone calling him, and the voice was familiar, so he turned around and responded.

"These two... Lady Fernina and the stranger."

At the same time, Qianzhi also noticed Fernina and Arlechino beside Xavier. She was obviously surprised when she saw Fernina, but she became very cold when she saw Arlechino in disguise.

"Oh, let me introduce you. This is Ms. Peruvian. She is the producer and investor of Shadow from Winter."

Xavier pointed at Arlechino and said.

"Hello."

Qianzhi nodded lightly, and her cold temperament was comparable to Arlechino.

However, Arlechino's temperament was more than just cold.

"Hello. Since I entered Fontaine, I have heard people praise the owner of [Qianzhi House] more than once. Now I finally see the real person."

Arlechino smiled politely and said polite words.

These words are in line with her current disguised identity, and will not make people doubt her.

"Thank you, these are just what I should do as a fashion designer."

Qianzhi nodded and said modestly.

After a simple polite remark, Chizhi's eyes returned to Xavier. Obviously, the politeness with Ms. Peruvian was far less important than the business.

"You look strange... So, what happened? The investor."

Chizhi looked like she had seen through everything.

"Alas... I can't escape."Your eyes..."

Xavier sighed softly, and then explained to Chiori what happened earlier.

During this period, Funina and Alechino did not interrupt Xavier's narration.

"Ah..."

Chiori sighed after listening to Xavier's words.

"Uh, wait a minute, Ms. Chiori, I... I know you reminded me that this investor has problems..."

Xavier was interrupted by Chiori before he finished speaking.

"He definitely has."

"But I really can't refuse... He proposed a budget twice as high as others at the time, a full double!"

Xavier tried to defend himself, but Chiori still spoke mercilessly.

"That's the problem."

Simple, but hit the root.

"I... I also have my reasons. I got such an excellent script, of course I want to make this Yingying well. But the budgets of other investors... are totally insufficient. I finally met one who is willing to pay a high price, so I..."

Xavier bowed his head with a guilty conscience, accompanied by loss and regret.

Obviously, if he had known that this investor Mr. Morris would run away, Xavier would rather choose other investors, even if the funds would be insufficient, he would not choose Mr. Morris.

"Well... Although according to the contract of [Thousand Spirits Shadow Festival], you can't find a new investor. Then can you try to find a loophole..."

"I will lend you money to fund your shadow shooting, and you and I only need to sign a contract, the condition is: if your shadow becomes popular, the income will be 80% to 20% between us, and its adaptation and screening rights will also belong to me, how about it? "

Alechino asked.

As she spoke, she created the image of a hateful capitalist who took advantage of the situation.

The adaptation and screening rights of Yingying are the most important things for a Yingying. If Xavier gave up these two, it meant that he gave up this Yingying.

After the filming was completed, Xavier had nothing to do with this Yingying anymore.
