"Are the books I wrote really that good?" Xuchang began to doubt himself again.
Gently caress the "Emperor and Empress" lying on the desk.
He spent five years working on this book.
Unexpectedly, the response after the launch was mediocre and the sales were not good at all.
He was once a best-selling author in the literary world.
But as times change, more and more people only read e-books. Books in bookstores have long become obsolete, and not many people patronize them.
Xuchang was unwilling to be eliminated by society in his own era, especially his book "A Generation of Empresses".
Although it is written about tactics and historical facts, it is also a portrayal of his inner expectations of life.
He wants to make the book into a TV series to let more people know the story.
But without sales, there is no reputation, and investors are unwilling to invest in works that have no market.
When Bai Yunru told him that the Chu Group was willing to invest in his book, he was extremely happy.
He also thought that his work had been recognized and sales were not good because the public did not appreciate it.
But now that the script has been adapted and the actors have been selected, the Chu Group suddenly withdrew its investment.
People in the crew are now panicking, and the male and female protagonists who were previously scheduled have also proposed to terminate the contract and catch up with other schedules.
Moreover, Xuchang has already spread the word in the industry that once his drama is released, it will definitely win awards and become a benchmark for Machiavellian dramas.
But now, just as he was about to start, an arm was cut off.
Wanting to take off has become a fantasy.
Seeing that Xuchang was sad, Bai Yunru comforted her with distress, "I have been reading your books since college! I am deeply in love with your writing! Over the years, I will read all your books. I am a long-time fan of yours! You wrote They are very good, it’s not your problem, it’s their fault that they can’t see your value!”
"Is this really the case?" Xuchang slowly looked at Bai Yunru, his empty eyes filled with hope.
"That's right, believe me! The Chu Group has withdrawn its investment, as well as the Gu Group, and many film and television companies! This drama will be launched as scheduled."
Bai Yunru said firmly, which finally gave Xuchang some confidence. He turned on the computer and clicked on the script of "A Generation of Empresses".
"I'll revise the script again! Try to make it perfect." Xuchang put on his glasses and began to study word for word on the computer again.
Bai Yunru washed the fruit, poured a glass of water, cleaned the cigarette butts in the ashtray, put away the cigarette smoke, put the cigarette lighters on the computer table in Xuchang, picked up her bag and went out.
She went to the Gu Group to find Gu Yan.
After Chu Lichuan decided to invest in Xuchang's TV series, Gu Yan also participated in the investment. Although he only held a part of the shares, with the financial resources of the Gu Group, Gu Yan was able to take over Chu Lichuan's lead.
Bai Yunru came to Gu Yan to talk about increasing investment.
But over the years, Gu Yan's favorite thing was to hold the CEO Chu's thigh and eat it.
Chu Lichuan has already withdrawn his capital, how can he take the risk to increase investment?
He rejected Bai Yunru's proposal without even thinking about it.
Bai Yunru moved out again. Gu Yan's parents were both students of Mr. Bai. She also taught Gu Yan's teachers and students how to talk about things.
Is it a place to show mercy in front of capitalists?
Even if he wanted to show mercy, Gu Yan would not offend Chu Lichuan by being friendly with Bai Yunru.
What's more, Gu Yan already had a prejudice against Bai Yunru.
"Mr. Gu, does Chi Enning not allow you to invest?"
Gu Yan smiled, "Principal Bai, we are talking about cooperation, and it has nothing to do with my sister-in-law! We must keep public and private affairs separate."
Bai Yunru snorted, "I'm afraid it has a lot to do with it! I know that Mr. Gu and Mr. Chu are brothers and have a good relationship! Mr. Gu also wants to divest, isn't he afraid of offending Mr. Chu? This is also called the distinction between public and private affairs!"
"If Mr. Gu had not fallen in love with my husband's book, he would not have participated in the investment! If Mr. Gu really distinguishes between public and private affairs, he should increase investment to support the completion of this drama!"
Gu Yan was angered by Bai Yunru's narcissism and said mercilessly, "Principal Bai, to tell you the truth, with the participation of the Chu Group, sufficient financial resources, and the ability to hire famous directors, we can also do big publicity, even if we lose money, It won’t be too embarrassing to lose!”
"The Chu Group withdrew from the show, and the famous director also refused to accept the script. I can't just watch the loss and throw money into it, right? My money doesn't come from the strong wind."
"Even if it depends on the relationship between teachers and students, is the relationship between teachers and students enough for me to go out of my way to praise it?"
What made Gu Yan even more refreshed was that Bai Yunru actually proposed that Gu Zhan use his popularity in the film and television industry to find a famous director to intercede, and also asked Gu Zhan to participate in the play to increase popularity.
"Sorry, Principal Bai, I can't afford to stand alone."
"You are cousins! Why won't he help with this little task?"
Gu Yan played with the signature pen in his hand and said rudely, "Principal Bai is still my sister-in-law's aunt! When my sister-in-law was hospitalized, everyone visited her every day. Principal Bai seemed to only go once, just to see her and then left. .”
"Family love can also be divided into distance and distance!"
When mentioning this matter, Bai Yunru lost her face, "It's not that I don't want to visit her, I'm angry. As the head of a school and her elder, I was slapped in the face in front of so many people at a press conference. Face to face, I apologize for what happened back then. Now many people online accuse me of not being worthy of being a role model."
"Whether you are the principal or your sister-in-law's aunt, telling the truth about the past is what Principal Bai should do." Gu Yan called his secretary in to arrange a meeting.
Bai Yunru saw that Gu Yan was issuing an order to expel guests and said angrily.
"Little Mr. Gu, what benefits has Chi Enning given you? How can you give up investing in such a good book?"
Gu Yan leaned on the office chair, folded his hands, and said lazily, "There is no benefit! Let's just discuss the matter! The pace of the book is too slow, and the beginning is not innovative! After Mr. Xu's book was launched, it sold less than a thousand copies, right? Among them, right? Principal Bai asked the school students to buy most of them."
Bai Yunru's face turned blue and white, "The book is really not selling well. The script has a lot of adjustments to the plot! As long as the filming is good, it will still be a big seller!"
"Without basic fans, relying solely on post-production publicity would require too much investment!" Gu Yan shook his head.
Bai Yunru gasped in anger, almost gritting her teeth and said, "Chi Enning is crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, be careful of being tricked by her!"
"My sister-in-law is an upright person, why would she try to cross a river and burn a bridge?" Gu Yan was determined and resolutely defended his shortcomings, and did not allow outsiders to say anything wrong about his sister-in-law.
"If I hadn't helped her, could she have risen to prominence in the wealthy family and become the young lady of the Chu family so smoothly? Would An Ran have lost so completely? Without my niece's identity as a cloak to add glory to her, she would have become so fast. Is it recognized by the public?”
"Now that she has achieved her goal, she kicked me away! Insidious villain."
Gu Yan waved his finger, "That's a bad statement! My sister-in-law obviously has a better shortcut. As long as her husband says a word, whether the outside world recognizes her or not, she is the young lady of the Chu family and the wife of Chu Lichuan! "
"An Ran will get retribution sooner or later if he does all the bad things! It has nothing to do with Principal Bai! When my sister-in-law chose to appear in the public eye as the granddaughter of the Bai family, she cared about family ties and wanted to make an effort for your relationship. No one I hope I am alone and have no relatives! She gave Principal Bai that opportunity just to help the Bai family! It's a pity that Principal Bai didn't cherish it."
Bai Yunru's expression changed.
She had considered this issue before. Although the Bai family was a scholarly family, in recent years, after Mr. Bai became ill, the Bai family had long lost power in the wealthy family circle. Their reputation was not as good as before, and they had no right to speak.
Every time Bai Yunru goes to a wealthy family's gathering, she always goes there with a shy face. Everyone also cares about her status as the head of the school and doesn't want to say unpleasant things to her face, so they use her as a foil.
She also thought that En Ning was ignorant and thought that the Bai family was some kind of great family, so she eagerly came to flatter him.
Little did they know that as the young lady of the Chu family, she was the protagonist who was flattered by everyone in the wealthy circle.
Of course En Ning would not have these heart-to-heart conversations with Gu Yan.
These are all what Gu Ruoyan said.
Gu Ruoyan went to Gu Station's crew and learned that Gu Yan was the editor who helped. She called to thank her and mentioned Chu Lichuan's divestment of Xuchang's script. Gu Ruoyan said that En Ning seemed to say that he didn't care about family ties. , in fact, deep down in my heart, I long for family affection the most.
If Bai Yunru hadn't completely chilled Enning's heart, Enning would not have let Chu Lichuan withdraw his capital.
Bai Yunru left the Gu Group and went to several film and television companies.
Those small companies also proposed to divest when they saw big investors withdrawing their capital.
Bai Yunru wanted to persuade them not to divest their investment, but the little money they had was far from enough to operate the film and television series.
Xuchang's script is considered completely pornographic.
Bai Yunru returned home weakly and saw Xuchang still sitting in his original position, racking his brains in front of the computer to revise the script. He walked over and closed the computer.
"What are you doing! Who told you to touch my computer!" Xuchang picked up the ashtray and threw it at Bai Yunru.
