Chapter 245 Tianhai's Newcomer Joins the Team with Investment

Meanwhile, Cui Ying led the newly signed artists to the film set.

Seeing an older woman approaching with a stranger, Shen Chaohuai casually walked past and handed the things to Cui Ying.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cui, I invested in this film, but you didn't, so you can't receive any remuneration."

Cui Ying paused, then said, "Mr. Shen, what do you mean? We're not asking for a share of the film's fees, but rather..."

Cui Ying looked at Su Qi: "According to the artist contract, after this drama airs, the artists under my management should share their remuneration with me."

"Not much, 20%."

Su Qi sneered after hearing this and crossed his arms.

Although Cui Ying was unhappy, she knew she wouldn't get much benefit from this, so her hatred for Su Qi grew stronger.

"Come here, Su Qi, this is our newly signed artist, Lu Yumeng. She's joining the crew today, so please take good care of her."

Cui Ying looked at Su Qi with a smile, while Lu Yumeng bowed to Su Qi and said, "Hello, senior."

Su Qi examined her closely: "She's not bad-looking, but she looks a bit artificial. Has she had plastic surgery?"

Su Qi's unabashed remarks drew laughter from those around her. Lu Yumeng had indeed undergone cosmetic surgery, so she couldn't say anything and could only say that she had only had minor adjustments.

"That's not important, Sister Qi. Could you give me a role with a higher billing?"

Su Qi looked at Shen Chaohuai: "He's the sugar daddy, go find him."

The girl stared intently at Shen Chaohuai, making him feel uncomfortable, so he turned his head away.

Shen Chaohuai found a seat and said, "If you want to bring your own investment to the production team, you should at least have some sincerity and ability, right?"

Do you know martial arts?

"Huh?" Lu Yumeng looked confused.

"This is a spy action film. You want to join the crew without even knowing what kind of film it is?"

The people around him laughed.

The camera panned to this side, and it immediately went viral.

#New Tianhai Artist Joins Production with Investment, Gets Criticized by Sponsor

[1L: So arrogant? Don't they even consider Su Qi's feelings?]

[2L: I heard that the Tianhai director is back. No wonder Su Qi didn't dare to resist; he's probably tied to some astronomical contract.]

Shen Chaohuai continued, "What else? You need to invest something, right? How much are you planning to invest?"

Lu Yumeng could only look at Cui Ying, who covered her head and sighed at Lu Yumeng's lack of common sense.

Su Qi lit a cigarette, and the candle flame on the cigarette holder burned down to the cigarette butt. She stubbed it out and threw it into the trash can.

The lights from the media and paparazzi were on her.

"Alright, don't make things difficult for the newcomer. I remember there was a maid who wasn't chosen as an actress, right? Let her play the role."

Lu Yumeng was clearly unhappy. She was a graduate of a prestigious art school; how could she be playing a maid?

Su Qi thought to herself, anyway, letting her act wouldn't cause any problems, and she could also find someone to share the remuneration paid to Tianhai, so it was quite a good deal.

[1L: Xiao Qi is so kind-hearted!]

[2L: Are you kidding me? Wasn't the atmosphere pretty tense just now? Have you changed your mind?]

[3L: Giving a chance to a newcomer, Xiao Qi is clearly thinking of how she was a newcomer herself, and is taking pity on the other person!]

Shen Chaohuai looked serious. He didn't want to agree at first, but seeing that Su Qi's good reputation had already been established, he couldn't refuse anymore.

"Let's do as Xiao Qi says."

[1L: Brother Shen spoils me so much!]

[2L: Is that right? He was just being aggressive, and then he agreed just because Su Qi agreed?]

[3L: Everyone says you shouldn't randomly ship couples, but it's clearly easier to ship them now.]

Cui Ying finally smiled, satisfied with the result, and patted Su Qi's shoulder lightly: "Then I'll trouble you to take care of the newcomer."

"Do not worry……"

Seeing Cui Ying leave, Su Qi's expression changed instantly, and she poured herself a cup of hot coffee.

"She really thought I would give her a friendly look. But I'm just thinking that I haven't received my payment for this movie yet, and I don't know how much I'll have to pay her. I can't be too arrogant, lest she scheme against me."

Master, you really don't need to give that newcomer any resources.

"Mainly because he agreed."

"Never mind, it's not a big deal."

[This means Old Dong of Tianhai made even more money...sigh.]

Shen Chaohuai came over with the costume: "Alright, we're about to start filming, get ready."

"This?" Su Qi looked at the pale gray cheongsam and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.

Shen Chaohuai laughed and said, "This is not a cheongsam. You are going to play a female spy in the Republican era. Because of her beautiful appearance, she avoids a lot of suspicion."

Listening to him describe his script, Su Qi couldn't help but blush: "What... And what about yours?"

“I’ll play your husband.” Shen Chaohuai’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he gave her a deep look.

Su Qi's cheeks turned even redder.

"Here's the script, take a look yourself." After saying that, Shen Chaohuai seemed to be fleeing in panic.

The plot of the play is that the female lead and the male lead were originally married but had never met. During a mission, the female lead had a scene with the male lead, and the two suddenly discovered that the other was their newlywed partner.

However, their opposing identities meant they could only fight once, and in the end, they covered each other's escape.

That concludes the filming of the first scene.

As Su Qi recited her lines, she felt utterly ashamed.

"Do you really want me to put my arms around his waist and call his name?"

Su Qi felt tormented when she wanted to get to this point: "Who wrote the script anyway?"

The makeup artist beside him chimed in, "I heard that there were originally several versions of the script, but Mr. Shen ultimately chose this one."

"But you know what, this kind of plot is definitely going to be a huge hit, more popular than anything else!"

Su Qi's ears turned bright red after hearing this. When she went on stage and saw Shen Chaohuai standing opposite her, dressed in a military costume, her heart fluttered even more.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at him, and forced herself to act with him. The director called out, "Ms. Su, this acting won't work. You need to make eye contact to create more feeling..."

Shen Chaohuai looked at her and sneered, teasing her in her ear, "It's just filming, why is your face all red?"

Su Qi closed her eyes, not knowing what was wrong.

Feifei pointed out that her heart rate was increasing, and Su Qi gave her a look that suggested there might be a mistake.

Feifei is an intelligent agent, and intelligent agents do not make mistakes.

Shen Chaohuai suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist. Caught off guard, she braced herself against his body, and her hands accidentally touched his chest muscles.

The two held prop guns, aiming to create a sense of confrontation. So, he and she pointed their guns at each other, and Su Qi suddenly pushed him away from his arms.

She suddenly noticed that Shen Chaohuai's grip on the gun was the same as when he was in the Empire, and even more dashing.

This was the first time Su Qi had observed him up close. In the past, with all the fighting and killing, there had never been such an opportunity to observe him.

She pulled the trigger with one hand, and the whole stadium screamed.

"Sister Qi looks so cool!"

"Shen Chaohuai isn't bad either! His looks are perfect for acting, aren't they?"

At the end of the first segment, both parties discovered each other's identities.

After the director finished directing, filming of the second segment began.

Shen Chaohuai approached her, lowering his pistol: "It's you..."

Su Qi continued according to the script: "What is the warlord talking about? I don't know you."

She reached out and hugged his waist, just like in the script, feeling extremely ashamed.

Shen Chaohuai suddenly smiled maliciously, deviating from the script, and pulled her directly into his arms.

Su Qi was so frightened by his actions that she couldn't move. Shen Chaohuai lowered his eyes and his fingers wandered over her collarbone.

Her heart was beating even faster...

She pushed him away, but he held her even tighter.

"Shen Chaohuai... what are you trying to do? Take this charade for real?" she warned him in his ear.
