Chapter 1172: 807 is intentional (4k, reward for double updates, triple updates!)_2

No one visits Treasure Hall without a reason.

Yang Ni had long guessed that the other party couldn’t possibly be here just for a casual visit.

The commercial value of Yun Xi now is indeed extraordinary.

Even the prideful Xiang Family couldn’t resist swallowing their pride to visit three times.

That’s right.

In this world,

who would refuse to get along with money?

With the allure of an all-star cast, and capitalizing on Pei Yunxi’s current hot topic status, even if the movie doesn’t revive the glory of Gangcheng’s film industry, at the very least, it’s guaranteed to make a huge profit!

Mai Jie continued to raise the stakes, "Regarding the payment for the role, you can rest assured, if you are willing to star in the film, we have already prepared a payment of one hundred million, ready to be transferred to your account at any time."

Hearing this, even the Xiang Family’s young mistress sitting beside couldn’t help but glance at her mother-in-law with her imposing presence.

She knew that during discussions at home, she had overheard her father-in-law aiming for an ideal figure of around eighty million.

Of course.

At such a time, she definitely couldn’t interject recklessly. Having once been an actress herself, she was there today only as a prop to help soothe the atmosphere.

It’s well-known that working on a film for the Xiang Family often results in lower compensation. In the past, many actors even worked for free.

A payment of one hundred million would likely be the highest record the Xiang Family has ever offered. Not to mention in Gangcheng, even in the mainland where conditions are generally more generous, it’s astronomical.

The Xiang Family’s grand offer took Yang Ni by surprise as well.

Even considering Pei Yunxi’s skyrocketing value, this offer was quite sincere.

And there’s also the all-star roster from Gangcheng.

With the Xiang Family’s clout, there’s no need to worry about empty promises.

Fairly speaking, for an actor, this truly qualifies as a very good opportunity.

The only problem

is the Xiang Family’s controversial background.

Yang Ni’s mind was in turmoil, but in the end, it wasn’t her business, so she refrained from blindly chiming in.

"Madame Xiang, I have already discussed this with Mr. Xiang last time; it’s not about the money. I feel that I need to adjust my current state," Pei Yunxi said.

A tantalizingly high payment is within reach, yet Pei Yunxi is unmoved. Her enchanting eyes shift toward the young mistress of the Xiang Family.

"Lady Xiang is also an actress. Why doesn’t Madame Xiang let Lady Xiang give it a try?"

That’s right.

Instead of spending a fortune on an outsider, it seems far more cost-effective to promote one’s own family.

Mai Jie didn’t speak.

"I can’t do it. It’s been a long time since I last acted,"

the Xiang Family’s young mistress quickly replied.

She knew her limitations.

Even though she was quite famous before getting married, she didn’t have the ability to support such an ambitious lineup.

"Yun Xi, do you have other concerns?"

Mai Jie asked patiently.

Pei Yunxi shook her head, "It’s my own issue."

"There are indeed many actresses, but you are the one we feel is the most suitable for the female lead,"

Mai Jie said, "It’s okay, you can take your time to consider it, we can wait."

An unspoken pressure was applied.

Having said all that needed to be said, the Xiang Family’s mother and daughter-in-law didn’t stay longer.

"Take your rest."

Yang Ni and Pei Yunxi stood up to see the guests out.

"Madame Xiang, please take care."

The Xiang Family’s mother and daughter-in-law left.

Yang Ni closed the door, walked back into the room with Pei Yunxi, and looked at the gift left on the coffee table.

"Accepting a person’s gift makes it difficult to refuse them. Mr. Xiang and Madame Xiang came to see you one after another; it would be hard for you to refuse again."

She felt troubled for Pei Yunxi.

"Actually, I think if we go by what Madame Xiang says, it could also be an opportunity for you. You could use this chance to break into the Gangcheng market, and one hundred million for the role is no small amount,"

Yang Ni spontaneously uttered.

The two actresses sat down again.

"The conditions offered by the Xiang Family are indeed very good,"

Pei Yunxi admitted, "But who can guarantee that once the filming starts, it will be just as they promised?"

"..."

Yang Ni was momentarily at a loss for words.

Indeed.

The Xiang Family’s dark history was too extensive to recount.

"Do you think the Xiang Family might say one thing and do another? That shouldn’t be the case, after all, times have changed now..."

"Is Sister Yang Ni tempted?"

Looking into Pei Yunxi’s eyes, Yang Ni chuckled.

"What’s the use of me being tempted? They don’t look up to me. I’m not worthy of a payment of one hundred million."

Even at the peak of her acting career, she never reached such heights.

Of course.

This life is definitely out of reach now.

"If you really don’t want to work with the Xiang Family, then it’s best that you leave Gangcheng sooner rather than later, and try to come here less in the future."

Yang Ni concluded, seeing that Pei Yunxi indeed had no intention of collaborating with the Xiang Family.

And that makes sense.

Making a movie is not a simple matter.

It involves a considerable amount of time, at the very least.

Who knows what tricks the Xiang Family might pull, like insisting you attend social events or accompany drinking. Would you agree or not?

Although these things might not happen, why bother experimenting?

A hundred million as an acting fee is exaggerated, but it’s not shocking on an international level.

Yun Xi’s sights must now be set on the global market.

"We’ll communicate with the Gangcheng police tomorrow, then we’ll head back."

Before Yang Ni could finish speaking, the doorbell rang again.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong..."

This time it should be Annabelle, right?

Stopping mid-sentence, Yang Ni got up to open the door.

But the person who appeared at the door once again caught her by surprise.

"Miss Yang, you’re getting more beautiful."

Some people really do know how to speak sweetly.

"Mr. Jiang?"

Yang Ni was surprised.

Like a god descending from the heavens, Boss Jiang, with his graceful smile, looked at the sexy actress blocking the doorway.

"You’re not welcoming me in?"

Snap out of it, Yang Ni hastily made way.

The uninvited Comrade Jiang Chen walked grandly into the hotel room.

The usually polite Pei Yunxi, upon seeing her boss, displayed considerable neglect; not only did she not greet him, she did not even stand up. However, she still asked, "What brings you here?"

"With such a big incident, of course I had to come and see. You’re our CX’s Top Female Star. If anything were to happen to you, it would be a significant loss to the company."

The first part of his statement was fine, but the latter part was quite disheartening.

Truly worthy of being the evil capitalist.

Only concerned with profit.

"Mr. Jiang, would you like something to drink?"

As if hearing nothing, Yang Ni had no prima donna airs; it seemed like she’d forgotten that she was also part of the capital forces in the entertainment circle.

"Do you have coffee?"

Jiang Chen didn’t stand on ceremony.

"I’ll make it."

Pei Yunxi got up, not wanting to burden Yang Ni with the task.

"No need, I’ll do it. You keep Mr. Jiang company."

Take a look.

No wonder she could grow from an actress to the stature she has today.

This kind of insight is truly worth studying and learning from.

"Miss Yang, no sugar, please."

Jiang Chen called out.

Pei Yunxi gave him a glance.

Boss Jiang, as if nothing was amiss, calmly took a seat on the sofa, contentedly gazing out the window, "That’s Victoria Harbour, right? Really beautiful."

"You’ve never been here?"

Pei Yunxi casually picked up the conversation, not expecting him to nod and say, "Indeed, it’s my first time."

"..."

Watching the "Goddess of The East" apparently rendered speechless by his comment, Jiang Chen smiled slightly, then his gaze shifted to the jewelry box on the coffee table.

"Still in the mood for shopping, good mindset."

He complimented.

"This was a gift from Lady Xiang to Yun Xi when she came by earlier."

Yang Ni came over with the coffee, "It’s instant coffee. I hope Mr. Jiang doesn’t mind."

Comrade Jiang Chen was very gentlemanly. He stood up to take the coffee and then immediately his hand trembled.

"It’s a bit hot, haha."

He quickly put the coffee down on the coffee table, but the way he tried to maintain his composure and pretend to be at ease made Yang Ni burst into laughter, and Pei Yunxi turned her head away, her lips curling involuntarily.

"What are you laughing at?"

Jiang Chen was not at all embarrassed, sitting back down, his fingers covertly rubbing as he calmly asked, "Where were we in our discussion?"

Yang Ni didn’t expose his awkwardness, kindly and understandingly said with a laugh, "We were talking about Lady Xiang giving Yun Xi a gift."

Her laughter at the moment seemed to be the most heartfelt since she arrived in Gangcheng.

It seems that both stylishly different stars, Yang Ni and Pei Yunxi, hadn’t noticed that since Jiang Chen entered the room, the atmosphere had inexplicably turned lighter.

Boss Jiang reached out tentatively to touch the coffee cup, then carefully picked it up and gently took a sip.

"Lady Xiang is quite thoughtful indeed."
