"It's been a long time."

"What, what is it that I miss you?"

Upon hearing the words of the person on the other end, Mingbei instinctively replied.

"You're quite the chatterbox!" Liu Yifei picked up her coffee and took a sip.

"But you haven't contacted me much lately, and the only time you did contact me was for work. I don't see any sign that you miss me..."

"Yes, that's just being polite!"

"..."

Liu Yifei choked for a moment, biting her lower lip and glaring at Ming Bei, like a calico cat about to explode.

The two hadn't seen each other for quite a long time; they hadn't had a chance to meet in person since filming "The Four."

Mingbei was also very busy during this period, writing scripts, acting in two dramas, and dealing with matters related to Orange Mobile.

It really feels like your feet aren't touching the ground.

However, although we haven't met in real life, we still chat online frequently.

After all, Liu Yifei and others also contributed to the script of Detective Chinatown, and the group often has heated discussions about certain plot points.

This brainstorming experience always captivated Liu Yifei.

Unfortunately, after Mingbei's script was basically completed, such scenes became rare.

Now that Mingbei has found her again, Liu Yifei knows that the film's production has made significant progress.

"When do you plan to turn it on?"

"We'll be filming on location in Thailand after the New Year!"

Liu Yifei looked at him in surprise, knowing that filming abroad was actually much more difficult.

Being unfamiliar with a place can cause a lot of trouble.

However, if we want to realistically present the local situation and better fit the storyline, location shooting is indeed necessary.

"Have all the actors been cast?"

"We're in talks with some artists, and a few deals have basically been finalized..."

As Ming Bei grinned, Liu Yifei sensed that he was up to no good. She stepped back warily, her eyes scanning him up and down.

"Judging from your appearance, I can tell you're up to no good!"

"Yes, could you give me a chance?"

"Fine, you can go join the queue. There's a million-strong army ahead of you!"

"Oh?" Now it was Mingbei's turn to look at her in utter surprise.

"What's wrong, is Qian-ye no longer admitting she's a loser now?"

Liu Yifei candidly stated, "I'm still just an ordinary guy, but I've never denied my own charm!"

That makes sense. In her view, the term "loser" might refer to issues related to clothing or behavior.

It doesn't really have much to do with appearance.

"Then you're still being conservative," Mingbei said with a smile.

"It's not just a million-strong army; tens of millions would be easily within our grasp!"

Although many people may criticize Liu Yifei, if there were a real opportunity to have her as a girlfriend, it's safe to say that many guys in China would go crazy for the chance!

Even haters will switch sides!

It's fine to criticize her online, but if you have the chance to hold hands with Liu Yifei in real life, who would refuse!

If they really hold hands, they won't wash their hands for at least a month!

At this moment, Liu Yifei looked quite pleased with herself. In fact, no one dislikes being praised; it's just that she has seen too many ordinary growth stories.

If it were Ming Beilai, with the same looks, and he exaggerated it so much, it would naturally make people feel happy.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic," Mingbei said, steadying himself.

"The reason I contacted you this time, Sister Fei, was to ask if you had any ideas about investing and making a cameo appearance."

Mingbei had already thought about this.

Bringing in people you know may seem like sharing the risk, but it's actually about getting them to make money together.

Furthermore, their fame can be used to help with publicity.

This opportunity can also be used to gradually build an alliance.

It doesn't have to be very formal, but if you can build a cohesive force within the circle, it will make many things much easier.

Admittedly, Mingbei could sweep aside Inner Fish with the power of Orange Mobile.

But if you can break through from a different angle using your own strength, it will have a unique flavor.

Orange Mobile can back them up; as long as it's not illegal or criminal, no one in the industry will dare to mess with them.

Just like the second daughter of Huaban Mobile, she could have taken the capital route, but she insisted on relying on her own efforts.

Because the sense of accomplishment is very different.

Even more, Mingbei harbors a crazy idea: to become the mastermind behind the film industry and overturn the entertainment circle!

Anyway, the fish in my previous life before I was reborn were already rotten to the core, all stinking fish and shrimp, and had almost hit rock bottom.

If that's the case, why not let it run rampant?

Anyone who gets in my way will be sent flying!

This project is still in its early stages, and it will take time to accumulate works before it can be realized.

Liu Yifei didn't seem surprised when she heard Mingbei's words.

She was quite interested in the script when they were discussing the plot.

Essentially, I was attracted by the content; at the time, it didn't have much to do with Mingbei.

Unfortunately, Detective Chinatown is a male-dominated film with very few female actors!

If she gets involved, she won't have much of a presence.

Even so, the idea of ​​getting involved still arose at that time.

"How much is the difference?"

Liu Yifei pondered for a moment, then asked,

"You said before that the total investment would be around 30 million, but for me, 500 to 800 million is all possible..."

Five hundred to eight hundred, although not ten thousand, she meant five million to eight million!

It can't be just a few hundred dollars, can it? What can you do with that? You'll be done with it after just two foot massage sessions!

"The initial investment was 120 million, plus scriptwriting costs, cameo appearance fees, and subsequent marketing expenses, bringing the total revenue to 150 million!"

Mingbei shook his head, indicating that the number was too high, and then revealed the plan he had come up with beforehand.

"That would give us a 5% market share!"

The total investment is only 30 million. If she takes away 5 to 8 million at once, then she will almost be the one who loses the lion's share!

If she were Mingbei's girlfriend now, then she might agree to this offer.

After all, you can get half of it later, and that half won't be taxed.

If there are too many Liu Yifeis now, it will be difficult for others to distinguish themselves.

Therefore, she, Liu Shishi, and others are basically all in the same boat.

At most, it's only 5%, and some may get even less.

For example, Liu Xinyou doesn't have that much money, so he probably won't reach that level.

It's not that they think they'll get a bigger share of the profits later; the main thing is that Mingbei needs to have absolute control over the production team and doesn't want any complications.

Moreover, this would seem fairer.

"Alright... then!"

After much deliberation, Liu Yifei finally agreed to the proposal.

"However, I need to decide the specific timing of my cameo appearance, and I need to have a certain degree of freedom while on set!"

"Okay, whatever you say!"

"Then," Liu Yifei extended her fair right hand, smiling as she looked at Mingbei,

"It's a pleasure working with you!"

"It's a pleasure working with you!"
