I'm almost a Muggle

"Really want to vote?" Liu Mingyi simply stopped beating around the bush.

"I'll vote, didn't we already agree?"

Lin Dong knew that it was polite not to look at others when talking to them, but he just couldn't control his eyes.

The waiter passed by their table with a cart, and the smell was almost sinful.

If I still had my wand...

No!

I'm an Auror, how can I steal other people's food?

Liu Mingyi and Zhen Xiaolong looked at each other, and Zhen Xiaolong spread his hands to express his innocence.

Whoever said it was okay, he didn't even know if it was okay or not.

"How about you read the script?" Happiness came too suddenly, and Liu Mingyi felt uneasy.

It's not that he hasn't seen the world before. In the past ten years as a producer, there have been cases where others have invested millions and millions of dollars to beg him to accept it, but it is definitely not a drama like "Love Is Not Loved".

"Don't watch anymore."

It takes so long to roast a duck, why is this restaurant so popular?

If I use "all faint" on these girls at the next table, can I just eat their portion of roast duck?

"There have been more and more restaurants in the past few years. When I came to the capital ten years ago, I basically went to eat at Quanjude. Now, at Four Seasons Mingfu, the situation and Da Dong all have their own characteristics..."

This guy must have dared not eat anything in order to stay in shape.

I have given up acting now.

So you plan to catch up on everything you missed before?

If Liu Mingyi still can't figure out where Lin Dong is thinking now, he will have been living in vain for so many years.

Therefore, he began to bring the topic to something that Lin Dong was interested in.

Look at me, look at me.

Finally, Lin Dong finally became interested.

The person opposite me, Producer Liu, seemed to understand very well.

So he said the longest sentence of the day:

"Mr. Liu, can you introduce them to me? I'll eat them one by one when I have a chance."

"Actually, you'll get tired of roast duck if you eat it too much. If you really like it, I'll introduce you to the capital's famous dishes."

Liu Mingyi took a sip of tea and decided to start a food strategy.

"Okay." Lin Dong's eyes lit up and he almost took out his notebook to take notes.

So, the two people who could only chat awkwardly for a few words started talking, and they were very happy to talk.

Zhen Xiaolong soon joined in.

In the land of China, there are millions of delicacies, and it is not easy to conquer even a British country bumpkin.

The roast duck at Siji Minfu is really good. The slices are so thin that you can almost see the human figure. It is not greasy in the mouth and does not have any fishy smell.

The first time Lin Dong ate roast duck, he knew how to eat it.

After all, he has been watching others eat for a long time.

Originally, one meal was enough for three people, but after finishing the meat on the duck rack, Lin Dong still felt a little unsatisfied.

Liu Mingyi, who is good at observing words and emotions, decisively ordered another one.

Now, Zhen Xiaolong began to suspect Lin Dong of cheating on food and drink.

I ate half of the second one and finally couldn't eat it anymore.

Lin Dong happily packed up the remaining half and prepared to take it back.

The three fat guys are very lucky.

After eating, the three of them found a small teahouse.

When they arrived at the teahouse, Lin Dong met Jiang Huateng, the director of the play, who had rushed here after being notified by Liu Mingyi.

The drama "Love Lost for Many Days" was initiated by the director.

He saw a novel on Douya.com and came up with the idea of ​​making a movie, so he bought the copyright of the novel and started the project with people who had previously made TV series.

Hearing that a Nortel student wanted to invest one million, he rushed over immediately.

"Dongzi, this is Director Jiang, who is also from Nortel." Zhen Xiaolong introduced Lin Dong.

"I'm in the 91st grade, majoring in literature."

Jiang Huateng comes from a family of directors. His parents are both great directors of the older generation. His father also graduated from Nortel with a grade of 64.

He was very affectionate towards the junior student who came from Nortel.

"Hello, Teacher Jiang." Lin Dong had just traveled through time for a few days, and he had already felt the tremendous power represented by the words "Nortel".

This is similar to when he was in the wizarding world, and the relationship between Hogwarts alumni is also very strong.

Of course, he is not naive enough to think that alumni mean everything.

If there is too big a conflict of interest, even alumni may take advantage of you.

Several people chatted around Nortel for a while, and finally brought up the subject of investment. Jiang Huateng had already brought a draft contract.

The current investment estimate for this film is 8 million, not including subsequent publicity.

Director Jiang did not pay the male and female actors for the film.

The male and female protagonists are not movie stars with much box office appeal, but they are not without fame. The TV series are quite popular, so asking them to act in movies requires a lot of remuneration.

So Jiang Huateng agreed to give out a portion of the box office share.

If you really lose, you two won't get a dime, so just treat it as a practice. If you make a profit, the male lead Zhang Wen will get 5% and Bai He will get 3%.

In addition, the main creative team also needs to take part, so 10% goes out.

Xuanfa has to take 5%~10%.

For an investment of 1 million, Jiang Huateng set a ratio of 10% for Lin Dong. As long as the production cost does not increase to more than 9 million, this ratio can be maintained.

If any subsequent parties make additional investments, Lin Dong will either make additional investments or be diluted in proportion.

"If you don't follow up, just invest one million." Lin Dong wanted to say, you can give me as much as you want, and I don't have any objection if you don't give a dime.

It's a pity that this is licking the butt of the system and will definitely be banned.

"Then take a look at the terms of the contract. Do you have any other questions?" Jiang Huateng really couldn't figure out Lin Dong's net worth.

He directly invested in the project without evaluating it. At first glance, it seems that he is not a money-hungry owner, but why did he insist on investing only one million.

I only have one million dollars!

If Lin Dong knew his confusion, he probably could only answer him like this.

"Okay, if there is no problem with you, then let's sign a contract and transfer the money."

Lin Dong couldn't wait to lose the money and buy a magic wand.

Transfer money on the spot?

It was the first time Jiang Huateng had seen someone so anxious to throw away money.

He carefully checked the business license that Lin Dong took out and confirmed that there was nothing fishy about the so-called Crest Culture Media Co., Ltd.

Finally, he shook hands with Lin Dong and reached an investment consensus.

The signing is completed and the transfer is successful.

Lin Dong's system showed that it can be settled.

"Would you like me to take you back?" Jiang Huateng drove here, and he politely offered convenience.

Although he is a senior senior fellow student, Lin Dong used money to invest in his unpopular movies, so his attitude cannot be compared to Qiao.

Investors like Lin Dong are great.

I won’t point fingers at the crew, interfere with casting, and won’t invite actresses to dinner.

And he does things quickly and quickly.

Jiang Huateng always feels insecure that he must have been cheated.

"No, Teacher Jiang, you go ahead. I have to think about something here and will take the subway back later." Lin Dong couldn't wait to make the settlement.

Magic wand, here I come!

"Okay, we've settled the bill, it doesn't matter how long we stay." The three members of the production team said goodbye and left.

Not only did we settle the bill, we also ordered special pastries to be delivered to the tea room.

【Settlement in progress...】

[The project name is the movie "Love Lost", with a production cost of 8.9 million yuan and a total box office of 350 million yuan. According to the investment ratio, you will receive an income of 14.78 million yuan. Unfortunately, your total loss this cycle is 0]

[The project is rated 0 stars and receives 0 gold galleons]

[Settlement is over, the starting amount of the next round is 2 million, and the current funds in your system account are 16.78 million yuan]

Phew, cough cough cough...

Wrong, you must have made a mistake!

Lin Dong was already in a frenzy when he heard that the total box office was 350 million. He kept questioning that the system must have made a miscalculation.

It's a pity that the system ignores him at all.

Then he was left sitting there in despair, his fingers wet with tea, and he unconsciously wrote the four numbers 1678 on the table, followed by a string of zeros.
