Song Mengjie is a fledgling director, but she has a rich resume. She has directed many short films, all of which are of high quality, and has won directing awards.

However, being a director is not as easy as she thought...

"Eleven Nights of Roses" was the first script she got, a TV drama script. The script was particularly wonderful, but if it was shot in the current way, it would definitely be a mediocre show and would most likely fail. But if she used the brand new shooting technique she had just learned, it would definitely be a big hit.

But this method was not very reliable in the eyes of investors, so she approached several investors, but they all refused after listening to her.

She planned to seek an investment of 50 million, select new actors for the roles, and spend the money wisely, but still no one was willing to pay.

Half a month has passed, and she still hasn't found an investor, and two of the confirmed actors have left.

Song Mengjie fell into confusion and tension.

The assistant came to the office and put the food in front of Song Mengjie: "Sister Song, it's time to eat."

Song Mengjie sighed and slowly opened the lunch box: "Xiao Li, if I can't find investment, I won't be able to start the business here."

The assistant encouraged him, "We are not at the end of our rope yet. If we think of more ways, we will definitely be able to solve these problems."

Song Mengjie said: "Who should I ask for help with what you said?"

The assistant thought for a moment and said, "How about we gather everyone together for a meeting, pool our wisdom, and come up with a solution together?"

Song Mengjie thought for a moment: "Will this make people in the underground think that I am too incompetent?"

The assistant said, "Investment is not that easy to do. Now is the time for everyone to work together to find a solution. Sister Song, I think it's okay."

Song Mengjie hesitated for a moment: "I don't have any other choice now, let's put face aside for now."

The assistant saw that Song Mengjie had figured it out, so he said, "Then I'll go inform everyone?"

Song Mengjie nodded: "You go."

The assistant went out and sent a message in the group, asking everyone to come to the conference room for a meeting half an hour later.

Everyone in the crew was very concerned about whether the filming could start, so they were very concerned about this matter. So when they saw the information, they rushed to the meeting room.

In half an hour, everyone gathered in the conference room.

Song Mengjie was the last one to come in. She walked to the front, told everyone about the current predicament, and then asked everyone to think of a solution together.

The crew members looked at each other in bewilderment.

Investment tycoon?

How can they know the big investment bosses?

Song Mengjie said: "As long as we find investment, we can start preparations right away. If we can't get investment, then we can only disband on the spot, so let's think of a solution together."

Everyone was still quiet. If they knew the big capitalists, they wouldn't have to work so hard on filming.

The assistant said, "Don't be silent, feel free to raise any suggestions or opinions you have."

Song Mengjie nodded and agreed, "Yes, you can ask any questions you have. If you can attract investment, everyone will thank you."

An actor said, "Why don't we go visit those who might invest."

Song Mengjie lowered her eyes and thought for a while: "I think it's okay, Assistant, go pack up, we will leave right away."

The assistant nodded: "Okay."

Song Mengjie took her assistant to the high-rise building where the largest investor in City A was located.

No surprise, it was rejected directly.

The two of them came downstairs dejectedly, looked back at the tall building, and looked discouraged. The assistant encouraged them, "Sister Song, this is just one of them. There are many more people you can visit."

Song Mengjie took a deep breath and said, "Let's go to the next one."

The two visited one company after another, and as expected, they were rejected by everyone. No one wanted to do business at a loss. Everyone was pessimistic about "Eleven Nights of Roses" or Song Mengjie.

It was getting dark, and the two of them walked into a noodle shop together and ordered a bowl of noodles each.

Song Mengjie ate the noodles in silence: "Xiao Li, you go back first, I want to go for a walk by the river."

The assistant was worried: "I'll go with you, and there's nothing to worry about when I get home."

Song Mengjie glanced at her assistant and smiled: "Okay, let's go together. We are under a lot of pressure. Let's go and relax."

The assistant said, “Okay.”

Arriving at the river, the assistant said, "There are so many people in City A, we will definitely find someone willing to invest in us. We will continue to visit tomorrow. Where there is a will, there is a way. We can definitely do it."

Song Mengjie glanced at the assistant: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two walked along the river and then returned home.

The next day, the two met downstairs of an investor's building, and then went upstairs together to discuss investment matters.

This time, the office building they came to was where Pei Zizhan was.

Pei Zizhang met them.

Of course, if Lu Chengcheng hadn't told him in advance, Pei Zizhan would definitely not have met him. He had never invested in a film crew and didn't know much about it. After listening to Lu Chengcheng's words, he made up for his knowledge in this area and now has some understanding.

Pei Zizhang looked at the script and asked a few more questions.

Song Mengjie answered questions fluently and told Pei Zizhan about the prospects, hoping that Pei Zizhan would invest.

Pei Zizhang asked: "How much investment do you need?"

Song Mengjie finally heard someone ask this question and answered excitedly, "Fifty million."

"Wait a moment." Pei Zizhang got up and went to another office to call Tang Muyuan. "The crew that Cheng Cheng mentioned came to me and asked for 50 million yuan in investment. How much will you invest?"

Tang Muyuan said: "Isn't 50 million too little? Let's invest a little more. Cheng Cheng will get 10 million and I'll get 30 million. You decide."

Pei Zizhang thought for a moment and said, "Ask Cheng Cheng to call me and I'll confirm it."

"Okay." After Tang Muyuan hung up the phone, he called Lu Chengcheng.

After hearing what Tang Muyuan said, Lu Chengcheng immediately called Pei Zizhan back. This was about making money, so personal grudges should be put aside for the time being.

After such a long time, this was the first time Pei Zizhang heard Lu Chengcheng's voice on the phone: "Chengcheng, the other party wants an investment of 50 million..."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Fifty million is not enough, at least seventy million is needed. I have ten million, how much will you invest?"

Pei Zizhang said: "Tang Muyuan said he would invest 30 million, I will invest the rest."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Okay, draft the contract and tell me a time, and I'll come over to sign it."

Pei Zizhang responded very straightforwardly: "Okay."

Pei Zizhan returned to the office and told Song Mengjie what they had discussed.

Song Mengjie almost cried with joy: "Thank you, Mr. Pei, thank you all so much, we will go back and draft the contract and send it over when the time comes."

Pei Zizhang said: "Send it over the day after tomorrow."

Song Mengjie said: "Okay, okay, let's listen to Mr. Pei. We will leave now."

Pei Zizhan asked his assistant to come in and see the guest off.
