Chapter 36 Yang Mi Takes the Initiative to Speak
For several days in a row, Reba kept thinking about the golden light in Wang Weili's eyes.
However, no matter how much Reba looked at it from different angles afterward, she still couldn't see any unusual expression in Wang Weili's eyes.
Am I really seeing things?
But that feeling of your heart suddenly tightening can't be faked.
Surely it's not like I've fallen for Wang Weili?
The moment the thought popped into Reba's head, she quickly shook it off.
She's not a love-struck person; it's impossible for her to fall in love with a male actor right after meeting him... but that feeling was really strange.
This dazed state continued to affect Reba, and coupled with the intense work of filming for several days in a row, she couldn't get enough rest, and her eyelids were constantly drooping.
Finally, during a break between filming scenes, Dilraba couldn't resist and found a sturdy-looking toolbox, intending to sit down and take a short rest.
She had only been sitting down for a few seconds when she was immediately pulled up.
"Are you looking for trouble?"
"Sister Honey?"
Reba forced her eyes open, looking at Yang Mi who had suddenly appeared in confusion, thinking to herself: I'm so sleepy because you suddenly came back last night and made me do things again.
Yang Mi held onto Reba's arm and pulled her aside.
"Look where you're sitting! Even if you want to take a nap, you should find the right spot!"
"what?"
Reba turned around in confusion. Wasn't that just a metal toolbox? People usually sit on it to rest, right?
Yang Mi rolled her eyes: "That's a photographer's toolbox. In their port city, it's a rule that women can't sit on a camera box."
"Is that so?"
"Of course! Luckily, I saw it. If anyone else had seen it, you'd be in big trouble."
"Is it that serious!"
Reba was terrified, and felt that the people in Hong Kong had too many rules, especially those targeting women.
Yang Mi stared at her intently for a moment: "You're usually quite clever, what happened to you while I was away?"
"this……"
Reba hesitantly recounted what she had seen and heard over the past few days.
Of course, she didn't mention the feeling of her heart suddenly tightening when she saw Wang Weili's eyes turn golden... saying that would be too infatuated.
Yang Mi asked with interest, "You mean Cai Yinong stormed onto the set, wanting to take Nazha away, but was persuaded to stop by Wang Weili with just a few words?"
"Yes, I saw that Mr. Cai's eyes were still red when he left."
"Wow, that's amazing!"
Yang Mi's fox-like eyes darted around for a moment before she suddenly said, "I just got back to the set and I'm not familiar with my scenes yet. I can go find Wang Weili to go over them. Where is he?"
"I think we were just at the van that the film crew provided for him..."
Dilraba pointed in a direction, and Yang Mi hurried over there.
Looking at the toolbox not far away, Reba surveyed her surroundings, made sure no one was around, and then plopped down on it.
What do you mean women can't sit on toolboxes? Pshaw!
After venting her emotions, Reba sprang up from the toolbox, carefully looked around, stuck out her tongue mischievously, and then quietly walked away.
……
"Yesterday, our app registered 10 drivers, mainly located in southern Jiangsu and Shanghai. If all goes well, our company will be able to generate revenue after the next round of financing..."
Wang Weili, who was lying in a folding chair listening to the phone call, suddenly sat up.
He removed his blindfold, interrupting Chen Kai on the other end of the phone: "No, no, no, I don't want any profits. Why are you even considering profits?"
"So that the company can make money?"
Chen Kai's voice sounded somewhat uncertain.
They held an online board meeting, which they also had last month. Chen Kai benefited greatly from many of Wang Weili's suggestions, so he also valued Wang Weili's opinions.
Wang Weili sat up straight in the chair, his expression becoming serious.
"Now is not the time to think about returns. Once you generate returns, investors will be curious about how much you can generate, and there will never be enough of that."
"However, as long as you can continue to expand the scale and tell a good story, even if the company is always losing money, you can still call yourself a pre-revenue model."
"What you're selling now is value, is scale, not revenue! Amazon is still losing money, but how has that affected Bezos?"
Chen Kai listened quietly without interrupting.
It wasn't until quite a while after Wang Weili finished speaking that he tentatively said, "So I should continue to focus on increasing the number of customers."
"Yes! That's it."
Wang Weili stood up from his chair and whispered into his phone, "Chen Kai, do you know why I didn't ask for more shares when I invested?"
"Aren't you sure we can succeed?"
"That's one reason. More importantly, ride-hailing and group buying are essentially the same businesses that require burning money. If we want to attract capital, we have to give up the lion's share. At that time, I hope we can be on the same side."
"I see."
Chen Kai was pursuing his master's degree at Stanford, which is right next to Silicon Valley, so he naturally understood Wang Weili's underlying message.
At the end of the conference call, Chen Kai mentioned next month's payment to Wang Weili.
And by mid-December, the first round of funding will be completely used up, and the company will need to consider the timing of the next round of funding.
"Let's proceed with the financing as planned."
"What kind of financing?"
Wang Weili covered his phone and turned to look.
Yang Mi, pretending to be passing by by chance, glanced at him and gave him an awkward but polite smile.
"I have something to do here, let's talk another time."
Wang Weili gave a brief explanation and then hung up the phone.
He stared at Yang Mi for a while, then sat down with a smile: "Sister Mi, did you rush back from another film set?"
"They're pressing us urgently here, so I had to rush back. I was worried about delaying the filming schedule, but I came all this way just to rehearse with you!"
Yang Mi looked around and suggested to Wang Weili that he should find her a seat.
Wang Weili pulled a small folding stool from under the chair and handed it over, then took out his script from behind him.
"Where shall we begin?"
"Don't rush!"
Yang Mi sat down with her legs together, elbows supporting her knees, and her hands supporting her chin. Her captivating eyes stared intently at Wang Weili.
"Two months ago, you seemed to be rumored to be dating Liu Shishi and Nazha. Now it seems that you and Nazha are the real ones."
"What's the point of gossip being true or false?"
Wang Weili glanced at Yang Mi sideways and teased, "If we sit a little longer, and some unknown person takes a picture of us, we can have a scandal."
"You're right!"
Yang Mi sat up straight, creating some distance between them, and changed the subject: "I'm still very curious about what you meant by financing. Could you tell me about it?"
Wang Weili frowned slightly and glanced at her with displeasure.
Yang Mi ignored him and continued to linger.
With the two at an impasse, Wang Weili simply lay back in his chair and used the script as a shield from the sun.
This move broke the deadlock, catching Yang Mi off guard. She exclaimed, "Why are you lying down? Aren't we supposed to be rehearsing our lines?"
"You're not here to rehearse, and I don't have time to play guessing games with you. If you make too many mistakes during filming, I will still file a complaint. If there's nothing else, I won't see you out."
Wang Weili didn't move an inch when he said this.
Yang Mi was furious but helpless until the door of the nanny van next to her was suddenly opened.
