Entertainment: Starting with a complete collapse

She's lived in this neighborhood for so many years and is used to it, and she likes living here. But the fact that her two sons' father lives in her best friend's neighborhood with another woman is something Xu Ying finds hard to accept.

It's so far away.

They're making it sound like she's a mistress.

After looking around for a while, Xu Ying hesitated. There were two apartments for sale, but the prices were really high, with each apartment costing over 100 million. She could buy them, but Yuan Yuan had borrowed 100 million from her some time ago. If she had to allocate another 100 million to buy apartments, she would find it hard to afford. If she really wanted to buy them, she would definitely have to give up some things.

It's true that she's a well-known female capitalist in the entertainment industry.

But the gap between different types of capital is too large.

Last year, that bastard took 150 million yuan from me and lent another 100 million yuan to Yuanyuan, making a total of 250 million yuan. Then he spent another 100 million yuan to buy a house, and the key point is that after buying it, he also renovated it, which will cost at least tens of millions of yuan.

Xu Ying felt a headache coming on just thinking about it. After a slight hesitation, she sent Huang Min a message: "I'll give you two sons soon, and you won't even show your appreciation! I'm not asking for much, just buy me an apartment in your neighborhood."

"No money"

A moment later, Huang Min replied.

Fuck you.

After reading the message, Xu Ying couldn't hold back any longer and immediately used voice messaging to curse.

It would be understandable if she didn't have money, but Xu Ying knew perfectly well whether this bastard had any or not. In the current entertainment industry, this bastard's assets were definitely among the top.

Leaving aside the fact that this guy's personal assets will suddenly increase by hundreds of millions after the movie "Letters to Grandma" is finished being shown, just based on the money he earned from his previous movies, his assets are already over 1.5 billion.

Her old classmate Ren Dong was already rich enough, but when it came to withdrawing cash, this guy was definitely more capable than Ren Dong. He could withdraw 1 billion yuan in cash without any difficulty, and even do so with ease.

After yelling at him, Xu Ying saw that he didn't reply for a long time, so she sent another voice message: "I'm pregnant with two sons, how much child support do you give me each month?"

"Four million a year"

Huang Min replied, "Two million for one, don't think it's too little. I'm a man of principle, I won't delay or owe you anything. After you give birth, once I've done the paternity test, I'll immediately transfer four million in child support to your account, and I'll pay you at the same time every year thereafter."

"Two million for one, and you're only giving this little bit?"

Xu Ying said angrily.

This guy is fucking stingy.

He stabbed her, and got her pregnant, yet he didn't get a single penny from either of those things; he'd only get paid after the baby was born. What was Xu Ying then? Had she been letting this guy get away with all this time for nothing?! Without much hesitation, Xu Ying asked again, "What about my share?! If you don't marry me, then I'm practically your kept mistress. Don't you pay to keep a mistress?"

"I'm a director in the entertainment industry, I slept with you and didn't even ask you for money, and now you're asking me for money?"

Huang Min replied to the message.

Xu Ying was furious when she saw the message Huang Min had sent her.

:

After a while, Xu Ying replied, "You've scratched yourself until you're bleeding! Knowing a stingy man like you is my bad luck..."

Before the next message could be sent, Huang Min's message arrived: "I've already given you a five million investment share in 'New World,' and I plan to release it during next year's Spring Festival. Filming will start soon. I'll also get you to invest five million in 'Infernal Affairs,' and there will be more later... Say it again, did I sleep with you for free?"

"..."

Xu Ying was taken aback.

Instinctively, she immediately deleted the message she had sent calling the dog stingy.

She had completely forgotten about this. Compared to simply giving her money to support her, investing was more worthwhile. After all, investing in this damn project could yield tens of millions or even hundreds of millions in returns with a five million investment.

Ren Dong invested a total of ten million yuan in the two films "The Witch" and "Extreme Job," but it brought him more than ten times the return. Gao Ying was really envious and jealous for several months. Now... it's finally her turn.

"Love you"

After thinking for a moment, Xu Ying replied with those two words in a playful tone, followed by, "Alright, no need for your reply. Just focus on writing the script! And don't doubt that the two sons in my belly aren't yours anymore. I know what I'm doing. If I say they're yours, then they're yours."

After putting down her phone, Xu Ying stopped looking at houses.

too expensive.

I simply can't afford it right now, and even if I did, I'm heavily pregnant and I can't let that bastard touch it. I might as well let that bastard focus on writing scripts so she can continue to invest and make money.

Five million for tens of millions—such a good deal is hard to come by. This proves that the scoundrel still has a conscience, and is many times better than Yuanyuan's sugar daddy who might be the one who owns the old man's car.

The child has been born for so long, and she hasn't even visited Yuanyuan. As for child support, there's definitely no such thing. In terms of character, she can't compare to her scumbag husband.

Thinking about it this way, Xu Ying felt much better. It was only because of her that the scoundrel was willing to let Yuan Yuan not take the 20 million yuan appearance fee for "Beyond Class" and instead participate in the investment of this variety show.

Reaching out and stroking her face, Xu Ying realized that she was indeed incredibly vain. Unfortunately, investing in variety shows was far too risky; otherwise, she would definitely have advised Yuan Yuan against it.

The night outside the window grew gloomy.

Huang Min wrote until a little after ten o'clock before closing his computer and going into his bedroom. Today, the box office for "A Love Letter to Grandma" was pretty good, with 120 million yuan in a single day.

Although it dropped significantly from the previous day, this is quite normal. For a movie to still have this performance after more than ten days in theaters is already quite good. Even if it drops further, this movie will still be the most profitable of the company's projects. Ultimately, this is the result of independent investment.

Doing this kind of thing occasionally is fine, but if you do it every time, problems will arise. And after this one, even if the company makes a movie with scatological humor, the other investors will rush over to have a taste of it too.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Seeing Kim Ji-mi still leaning against the headboard waiting for him, Hwang Min asked with a smile.

"Wait for you"

Kim Ji-mi replied softly.

:

"I knew you'd say that."

Huang Min smiled and reached out to turn off the bedroom light. He then hugged Jin Zhimei and started to sleep. As for Xiao Bao, her aunt coaxed him away with a lollipop.

That same night.

After promoting "Love Letters to Grandma," Lin Wan, who hadn't posted on her WeChat official account since then, has made a comeback. This time, instead of posting promotional content, she posted a short essay.

The specific details are also related to Huang Min.

"Many years ago, when I had just graduated from university, I took on a role in a TV series called 'Golden,' and my ex-husband, Huang Min, happened to play the third male lead in the show. At the time, I was a new actress, while my ex-husband was already a second-tier actor, and one of my favorite actors. So I mustered up the courage to tell him, 'You are my idol.' I could sense that my ex-husband, Huang Min, was flattered. Later, we exchanged contact information. He wasn't a very romantic man, but he was very practical and gave me a sense of security. Perhaps because we spent a lot of time together, I gradually developed a fondness for him and began to think about settling down with him..."

The short essay is quite long.

It tells the story of how Lin Wan met Huang Min after graduating from university, as well as some of the little details of their relationship.

"Later, we really got married. At first, everything in the family was going well. Besides having a son together, my career was also on fire. I became a sensation in the entertainment industry with one movie and smoothly became a top actress. However... after being in the entertainment industry for a long time, I gradually became complacent and felt that I deserved a better life and to earn more money. When these desires got out of control, I started to dislike my ex-husband, Huang Min. He liked to paint and practice calligraphy, which I particularly disliked because it gave people the feeling that he was not ambitious. I felt that if he didn't waste his time on these useless things and instead associated more with directors and capital in the entertainment industry, he might have had a chance to become a top actress. In short, everything changed. My ex-husband was still the same. He seemed to have never changed, but I changed. I became more successful, more prosperous, and changed so much..."

Finally, Lin Wan gave a summary.

"I was wrong, terribly wrong, and I caused great harm to my ex-husband, Huang Min. I've seen many netizens say that he should be grateful to me because I was the one who pushed him to his limit. I don't dare accept that credit. I just want to sincerely say to my ex-husband: 'Xiaobai's dad, I was wrong. I don't ask for your forgiveness, I just hope you can give me a chance to repent. At the same time, I want to tell you that Xiaobai misses you very much and hopes you can come and see him, and me too... Before, I didn't know how to play the role of a mother and wife well, but now I do. After experiencing so much, I feel that I can fulfill this role well. I made a mistake, but it is precisely because I made a mistake that I can grow. Xiaobai's dad, the door to our home is always open for you. Xiaobai and I are looking forward to your return.'"

Because of the short essay Lin Wan posted.

Her previously quiet and lifeless public account immediately became lively.

However, the art style was not quite what Lin Wan had imagined.

"It's not bad. After reading it, I summarized two core points: First, her ex-husband succeeded, and she wants to remarry him. Second, she avoids the key point and never talks about her infidelity, only using 'making a mistake' as a summary."

"You were the one who attacked Huang Min a couple of years ago, and now you're the one regretting it. It's all because Huang Min became a big director! You actually wrote so many words, it's making my head spin."

"I have a question for everyone: What's the most charming thing about your ex-husband?"

The comments under this question were all "successful".

"Huang Min, don't be soft-hearted. I remember you once said, 'No matter what setbacks a man suffers, it's okay. The important thing is to adjust his current life and cut ties with the past. If you choose to forgive, then you deserve everything you've suffered.' Because of what you said, I didn't remarry my cheating ex-wife. Huang Min, you're my idol. If you dare to remarry her, I'll blackmail you for the rest of my life."

"Indeed, in a woman's heart, a successful ex-husband is her best escape route, without exception, the only one."
