Chapter 1159: 799 Art

"The movie was well-made, deserving its high box office success."

Hearing the affirmation on the other end of the phone, Jiang Chen, who was in East Sea, was a little surprised, "You still have time to watch movies?"

"Why wouldn’t I? I’m human too, and I have my own personal space."

Cao Jinse spoke in a relaxed tone, "Guess who I watched it with?"

"Mao Tu?"

"How is that possible. Watching a movie with her, I’d be nagged to death by her incessant chatter."

Not beating around the bush, Cao Jinse said, "With Aunt Lan."

Jiang Chen felt odd inside.

"It was actually Aunt Lan who dragged me along. Surprising, right?"

Cao Jinse sighed, "You really carry some clout."

"What does that have to do with me?"

Jiang Chen laughed inexplicably.

"It was the first time I watched a movie with Aunt Lan, and speaking of which, your movie must have raked in quite a profit, right?"

"The box office did well, but you know, cuts have to be taken from all sides, not much ends up in my hands."

"You’re not lacking that little bit anyway."

Cao Jinse teased, though as a friend, she indeed had principles and did not excessively probe into the "business secrets," and quickly changed the subject.

"The prosecutors are ready to file a lawsuit against Fang Jun."

So it’s finally come.

Actually, ever since learning about Fang Jun being taken away for the second time, Jiang Chen knew it would be difficult for the other party to escape unscathed this time.

Since the prosecutors decided to sue, it means they have gathered the necessary evidence.

Young Master Fang might truly end up behind bars to get a taste of the common people’s sentiment.

"When is the trial?"

"Unless something unexpected happens, it should be in about half a month. Want to come watch in person?"

Cao Jinse asked with a hint of amusement.

"Even if you invite me, I won’t go."

Jiang Chen responded without hesitation.

His presence wouldn’t affect anything; on the contrary, showing up conspicuously would only invite trouble, only a fool would do such a thing.

"The law will deliver a fair judgment."

Jiang Chen spoke righteously.

Cao Jinse chuckled, not continuing the topic.

Although they achieved victory in this complex and dangerous struggle, there was no need to celebrate triumphantly.

That would be petty.

Her and Jiang Chen’s goals were never focused solely on Fang Jun.

"I hope your movie continues to soar, achieving history and taking the world’s top spot soon."

"That’s a bit dramatic."

Jiang Chen laughed.

"Honestly, there are still many places where money will be needed, Comrade Jiang Chen."

Indeed.

Just as she said.

The expansion site selection for Xinghuo Medical Center has already begun conducting surveys in major cities, and the government project obtained during the ancient Daoguan dinner party will soon be on the agenda.

Whichever project, both require a massive influx of funds.

Comrade Jiang Chen, seemingly unstressed, held his phone seriously and responded firmly.

"Everything we do now is supremely glorious."

Cao Jinse paused, then silently smiled.

Peninsula Hotel.

Yang Ni had just seen off a renowned lawyer from Gangcheng, and once the person left, her elegant smile quickly vanished, her brows furrowed.

Pei Yunxi was also there, having listened in on the entire discussion about the custody battle lawsuit.

As expected.

If it really comes to going to court, even though that lawyer is experienced, he candidly stated that the odds of winning are slim and suggested that it’s best to settle outside of court.

"Yang Ni, you can find someone in the mainland, there are plenty of formidable lawyers there."

"But lawyers from the mainland, coming to Gangcheng to hold court, ultimately don’t have the advantage over lawyers from Gangcheng."

Yang Ni’s words were sensible and irrefutable.

"It’s okay, I’ll contact some other legal professionals in Gangcheng to ask around."

Yang Ni truly is a very decisive and strong person, using her connections and making phone calls for over half an hour.

"Yun Xi, why don’t you go back first? I can handle the remaining matters myself."

Hearing her daughter call her aunt, as a mother, she was indeed a bit devastated, but now Yang Ni had clearly adjusted, not wanting to trouble others further.

"It’s okay. I don’t really have anything else to do."

Pei Yunxi said lightly.

Yang Ni of course understood that the other party cared about her and smiled gratefully, "Yun Xi, thank you. But, as you know, I’ve come a long way. I can handle it."

"Yang Ni, I know you’re strong, but don’t you need someone to talk to sometimes?"

Pei Yunxi seemed to joke.

A simple sentence nearly brought tears to Yang Ni’s eyes.

Yang Ni held back her emotions and nodded, "Alright, let’s go for a feast."

During the meal, the two of them were very happy, Yang Ni talked about her early days when she just entered the industry.

The hardships and bitterness of the past can indeed be talked about with laughter now.

"Back then, to become famous, the director asked me to make bold appearances, and it was my first time wearing a bikini on camera."

"For art’s sake."

People indeed behave differently in front of different audiences.

In front of Yang Ni, Pei Yunxi was no longer so aloof.

"What do you mean for art."

Yang Ni couldn’t help chuckling and jokingly said, "Then why didn’t you dedicate yourself for art back in the day?"

When Pei Yunxi first entered the industry, there were also many similar scripts which required artists to make certain sacrifices.

Actually, this is nothing extraordinary in the film and television industry; not to mention wearing bikinis, the sacrifices made by artists in the past were even greater.

Yet, faced with those scripts, Pei Yunxi, who was an absolute newcomer at the time, rejected them all without exception.

From this, Yang Ni saw something different in this girl.

Because of the industry’s glitz and glamour, too many girls were desperate to break into it, even going to extreme lengths.

Just like herself.

When the director wanted to film a provocative scene of her swimming in a bikini, she didn’t hesitate much.

One reason was to stand out.

Another reason, being just a minor actress then, she simply didn’t have many options.

As for Pei Yunxi, who was an absolutnewcomer at that time, it is needless to say.

If it were another boss seeing a newcomer being so picky, they might "freeze" them out, potentially wasting several years of prime career development.

But Yang Ni didn’t.

Perhaps out of appreciation for this girl, or perhaps recalling her own past experiences, she did not sideline this unique girl; instead, she continued to leverage her influence, striving to secure resources for her.

Her efforts were not in vain.

Now, the other party is even more popular than her.

Although no longer an artist under her management, seeing the current Pei Yunxi, Yang Ni inevitably felt a teacher-like pride and satisfaction from seeing her student surpass her.

Of course.

Not sidelining Pei Yunxi was her fortune, and being able to encounter such an employer when she entered the industry was also Pei Yunxi’s fortune.

This is also why Pei Yunxi is now sitting in the restaurant of the Peninsula Hotel keeping the other company.

"Because I don’t have the figure you have, Yang Ni. Even if I dedicated myself, probably no one would watch."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ni seemed to momentarily forget all the distress and troubles in her heart, bursting into hearty laughter.

But little did she know, the other’s words weren’t entirely a joke.

This top female star, who has mesmerized countless men, has indeed dedicated herself before, and not just in a film role.

And yet she was rejected.
