Chapter 28 Director Li's Waterloo

Director Li was stunned and speechless for a moment, and did not answer.

Shi Wan asked again: "Since it's my turn, should I say hello to Zhan Rongchuan?"

That being said, Shi Wan was actually even more reluctant to say hello than Director Li. After all, after that day, Shi Wan completely offended Zhan Rongchuan because she wanted to help Zhan Xu snatch the position of president of Zhan Group from Zhan Rongchuan.

There is no way Zhan Rongchuan can help her now.

Director Li looked embarrassed and distorted the facts to explain: "This is not a question of money, I just think you are more suitable to play the third female role."

Shi Wan raised her red lips slightly, and unconsciously revealed a sarcastic smile, she couldn't help it.

"Then Director Li, do you think Jiang Yifeng's 15 million is more valuable than Zhan Rongchuan's?"

It goes without saying that the reason why Director Li did this was because Zhan Rongchuan's money was already in place and he couldn't withdraw it even if he wanted to, while Jiang Yifeng's money was still on the way and could be obtained but hadn't been obtained yet, which was more attractive.

Director Li subconsciously glanced at the leading actress. After all, she was Zhan Rongchuan's woman. If this pillow talk reached Zhan Rongchuan's ears, he was afraid that not only would he fail to get the money, but he would also offend Zhan Rongchuan.

The first girl was very well behaved and whispered, "This is your business, I won't get involved."

Director Li breathed a sigh of relief and stood up: "The third female lead quit today. Now, except for the second and third female leads, the contracts for the others can be finalized."

After saying that, he was leaving.

Shi Wan slammed the table loudly. She was not slamming the table to challenge others, she was just nervous.

She signed the contract for the second female role today! Otherwise, Zhan Rongchuan would definitely come and step on her if he knew that she would be replaced.

"I'll invest this 15 million!" Shi Wan stated his decision in front of everyone.

Qin Shuochen's eyes widened and he tugged at Shi Wan's sleeve: "Sister, it shouldn't be that serious, right? It's just a small web series, but you've been targeted like this. Can we just ignore it? I'll find resources for you, the big screen. Aren't you all big screens in Hollywood?"

If it were the old Shi Wan, he would have quit long ago when faced with such blatant targeting.

Qin Shuochen has always felt this way, but today...

Director Li also responded loudly: "Okay! As long as you can come up with this 15 million, I will call and reject Mr. Jiang immediately! Bring me the contract!"

Although Director Li's voice was loud at this moment, he was definitely not shouting at Shi Wan. Everyone could see that Director Li wanted Shi Wan to perform, but money can make a hero fail, and Director Li was defeated by money.

Lin Yurou was shocked and saw Director Li's attitude. She stood up quickly and said, "Director Li, are you dissatisfied with my performance today?"

Director Li ignored her and pointed directly at Shi Wan, saying sternly, "I'm not afraid of you scolding me behind my back! Fifteen million! The king of heaven is here, and this role is all yours!"

This is selling the role at a fixed price.

Qin Shuochen stood up, grabbed Shi Wan's wrist and was about to take her away.

This is too much! How dare a crappy web drama be so arrogant? Do you really think that Qin Shuochen is a vegetarian?

"Sister, we don't want it!"

Shi Wan stood in his position without moving at all.

Qin Shuochen was furious, but he couldn't do anything about Shi Wan.

Shi Wan took out his cell phone and called Lu Zhixia, "Do you have 15 million? Lend it to me for a while."

"What's the problem? You know I'm a day-glo person." Lu Zhixia was very noisy over there. She took her phone and moved to another place. She said, "I still have 20,000 yuan left today. I'll transfer it to you."

"Forget it, I'll ask someone else." Shi Wan hung up the phone.

This is why she never asked Lu Zhixia to borrow money. Lu Zhixia would never have more than 100,000 yuan in savings.

Many people in the conference room were laughing at her, and she still had the capital to do it!

Shi Wan stared at the phone screen, bit her lip, and called Zhan Xu again.

The call was quickly connected, "What?"

"I want 15 million. Can you sell your Bugatti?" she whispered.

But the entire conference hall was very quiet, and everyone was watching how Shi Wan could resolve the 15 million issue today.

Zhan Xu was silent for a moment, "Who made things difficult for you?"

Shi Wan whispered again: "I must sign the contract today, otherwise Lin Yurou will take my role away. Zhan Xu, when I have money in the future, I will buy you ten cars, no, twenty cars will be fine, okay?"

Her voice became coquettish again at the end.

Zhan Xu said nothing and hung up the phone.

Shi Wan was petrified and embarrassed.

Sure enough, no one could take Zhan Xu's beloved car, not even her.

Qin Shuochen was suddenly distracted by Shi Wan's words. He was no longer angry and blinked. When did Brother Zhan Xu become so poor that he needed to sell his car?

Seeing Shi Wan was embarrassed, he said, "Sister, I'll pay for it."

Everyone was shocked. Not only did Qin Shuochen star in the film for free, but he also paid for it? How good was their relationship? Many people began to speculate about their improper relationship.

Director Li's cell phone ringing attracted everyone's attention.

He quickly put on a smile and answered the phone.

What was said over there?

Director Li said quickly, "Yes, yes! The auditions have just ended and most of the actors have been officially confirmed, with only two left to be confirmed."

What was said over there?

Director Li suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Shi Wan, his eyes full of shock, as if he had forgotten to reply.

After a long while, Director Li said, "No, no, Shi Wan acted very well, I have always admired her... absolutely not! With Shi Wan's acting skills, I believe she can interpret any role! It depends on what she wants to play."

What did the other party say again?

Director Li nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay... um um um..."

Then he hung up the phone.

The meeting room was quiet...

The heroine's eyes, which had remained calm all this time, couldn't help but twitch as she looked towards Shi Wan anxiously.

Director Li was so embarrassed that he was digging his toes into the ground. It was so awkward that he didn't even know who the biggest investor wanted to support. This was the Waterloo of Director Li's career.

The entire conference room was silent for a long time. Qin Shuochen tentatively asked, "Does Director Li still want the 15 million?"

Director Li subconsciously shook his head like a rattle.

Shi Wan heaved a sigh of relief and saw Lin Yurou. Lin Yurou panicked and said hurriedly, "Director Li, I can play the third female role!"
