After traveling through time, I was in the front row watching the real daughter slap her face
Chapter 156 The Second Brother of the Original Work
My second brother looks like a little fox when he smiles.
"I heard that she, like you, was also under pressure from her family to get married. Her mother was afraid that if she married a foreigner, she would be able to do whatever she wanted, so she tried every means to trick her into coming back and even arranged a lot of blind dates for her."
When Brother Le first heard the name "Jiang Min", his momentum weakened a little. However, after listening to what Brother Le said, he regained his senses and quickly found an obvious loophole.
"You just said that she still misses me, which is obviously a lie. If she really had me in her heart, she wouldn't have stayed abroad for so many years and needed her mother to trick her into coming back."
Brother Le raised his lips slightly with a "not bad" smile and glanced at him.
"Secondly, as you said, after she came back, I arranged several blind dates for her. Under these circumstances, she still didn't come to me, which means she didn't want to find me, or she didn't remember me at all. This just proves my first point."
The smile on Brother Le's face froze, but since the first method didn't work, he quickly came up with a second one.
Brother Le gave a thumbs up and praised:
"As expected of my big brother, you are amazing. Those ordinary people out there can't compare to you. No wonder Jiang Min was so obsessed with you back then. Now that you are here, I wonder if she is still interested in going on a blind date?"
The second brother pretended to sigh and shook his head.
"If she doesn't like any of them, there's no guarantee that she won't remember how great Big Brother is. After all, even without friendship, Big Brother is still the most suitable candidate as a partner."
"In other words, don't think you can get rid of Jiang Min so easily."
Brother Le also heard the unspoken words in his mind. If Jiang Min really couldn't remember, he didn't mind reminding her.
Brother Le narrowed his eyes.
"You're right. When I think of this hidden crisis, I lose the mood to work. Instead of waiting for her to come to me, it's better to get rid of all my things and find an excuse to hide for three to five years. This way it's much easier."
When Brother Le heard him say this, he was initially happy, but after being happy, he felt something was wrong and hurried to stop him.
"Hey, big brother, she's just a woman, why are you afraid of her? Back then, you still had a way to send her abroad to study and prevent her from getting entangled. With your current strength, isn't it easy to deal with her?"
Second Brother Le was a little unhappy. He just wanted to vent his anger just now. He said too much and offended his eldest brother. He completely forgot that he had something to ask his eldest brother.
Brother Le has been a science fiction fan since he was a child, so he likes all kinds of science fiction-related works. He entered the entertainment industry and opened an agency company, more or less because of this, he wanted to make a science fiction movie himself.
Nowadays, special effects are becoming more and more advanced, but there are still very few science fiction movies in China. One of the main reasons is that the production cost of a good special effects movie is extremely high, ranging from 500 million to 600 million to 800 million to 900 million, and over 1 billion is very normal.
High costs bring huge risks. For example, if the cost is 1 billion, the box office revenue must be 3 billion to break even. Without the support of the foreign market, no director would dare to say that this film will definitely make 3 billion at the box office just in the domestic market.
In order to make money, the box office has to be higher, for example, 4 billion. With so many movies released in a year, only two or three can reach this level.
The box office sounds high, but the dividend money is not much. It would be better to make some other good-looking movies. What's more, the special effects production cycle is so long that others only need to make two movies.
Therefore, for various reasons, few people are willing to touch science fiction, let alone invest in science fiction. However, Le Erge did not give up. He still had the dream of making science fiction films, especially after getting a wonderful script.
Unfortunately, the capitalists only cared about money and not ideals. In the end, only Brother Le and a few others invested some money symbolically out of brotherhood, but it was not even enough.
In desperation, Brother Le had to focus his attention on his good elder brother.
Brother Le is indeed capable. He showed a talent for business at a young age. He invested a little here and a little there with his New Year's money, and the money kept growing. In his twenties, he had accumulated enviable wealth. The most important thing is that he is low-key and does not show off.
So many people just thought that he was the young master of the Le family, which was why he was so generous, and they didn’t know that the money was earned by himself.
Second Brother Le followed him for a long time before he got First Brother Le to agree to invest a large sum of money in his science fiction movie.
Now that the money that his eldest brother promised has not arrived yet, he has already angered him. This is not worth it, so the second brother Le’s face changed and he became a well-behaved and obedient younger brother again.
"Don't worry, bro. I'm here for you. I'll help you keep an eye on Jiang Min. If she shows any unusual behavior, I'll report it to you immediately."
Even Le Wan, who was standing nearby, found his likable look somewhat novel.
"Second brother, what is your weakness that you fell into the hands of eldest brother?" she asked curiously.
Second Brother Le grew up with Big Brother Le. After seeing Big Brother Le gain wealth and freedom in his early years, he was stimulated and became independent. He also developed a strange character of only reporting good news and not bad news, and he didn't like to tell his family about things.
If he wasn't really short of money, he wouldn't have asked Brother Le for this, so when he heard Le Wan's question, he avoided the topic and whispered in Le Wan's ear:
"It's just a small thing. I beg you to help me. When I'm under your roof, I have no choice but to bow my head."
Unfortunately, Brother Le did not have such concerns. Seeing that he insisted on putting on airs, he directly exposed him.
"Hasn't your second brother always wanted to make a science fiction film? He ran into obstacles everywhere and couldn't get that much investment. His own money wasn't enough, so he had to ask me to support him."
When Brother Le said this, Le Wan's body stiffened, and Brother Le also looked a little embarrassed and said:
"Who are we? Aren't your things mine? Aren't my things yours? We are brothers."
"Okay," Brother Le replied, "Give me the latest limited edition sports car you ordered."
Second Brother Le's eyes widened. He had waited for a long time for the sports car to be in the line, how could it be given away so easily?
"Huh? I seemed to hear someone calling me. Was it Mom?" The second brother said as he retreated to the door, then turned around and ran away.
Seeing his shameless appearance, Brother Le sneered, "You just want to fight me?"
Turning his head, he saw Le Wan's gloomy face and thoughtful expression, and asked with concern:
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Zhai Jingkai on the side looked at her with concern.
Le Wan came back to her senses, shook her head, and asked casually:
"No wonder your expression changed so quickly just now. I heard that making a science fiction movie is very expensive. How much did you invest, big brother?"
Brother Le put his hands in his trouser pockets and said nonchalantly:
"Hundreds of millions."
"Second Brother Le has asked the company's professional team to calculate the production cost of this film in advance, and it should be around 800 million."
Second Brother Le has his own film and television company, but he has to support a large group of people. The company's annual investment is fixed, and the projects to be undertaken are also fixed. He can't just take out all the company's money for his own dream and ignore the rights and interests of other employees.
So he only let the company act as an investor and put out a portion of the money for investment. Together with his personal liquid assets of more than 100 million yuan, plus the funding from his friends, Brother Le raised a total of about 300 million yuan.
He is still 500 million away from 800 million, which is far from enough.
Seeing that his younger brother was so determined to make this movie, Brother Le even took out all his money. Although he felt that the risk was a bit high, he still took out money to support him.
Originally, Second Brother Le wanted to ask him for around 200 million, and then he would find a way to get the rest of the money together, so that at least some of the risk could be shared. However, First Brother Le thought it was too much trouble, and since he had already paid 200 million, he might as well pay another 300 million.
Fortunately, although Brother Le has invested a lot, he also has a lot of short-term investments on hand, so not all of his funds are tied up. There is still enough liquid funds in the account to make up the full 500 million.
After hearing this, Le Wan's heart sank even more. In the original novel, the disaster that belonged to Second Brother Le had already begun.
