A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 13: Early Investment

Arriving at the school gate, Ji Yangyang said, "Come on, I'll drive you there."

He took out the Ferrari key and pressed it.

"You're at a loss if you take me with you. You have to bring a girl with you. How about Huang Zhitao?" Chen Jinnian said jokingly.

Hearing this, Ji Yangyang felt a little embarrassed, which was rare. He pretended to be angry to cover it up: "If you don't want to sit, you can walk."

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm just kidding. Why wouldn't I take a ride if I can?" After saying that, he opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat without any awkwardness at all.

Ji Yangyang shook his head helplessly, got in the car, fastened his seat belt, skillfully stepped on the accelerator, reversed, and drove out of the parking area outside the school.

Although he just got his driver's license, he is already an experienced driver because he loves driving. In the literal sense, he is an experienced driver.

"How about it? Listen to the sound of the engine, it's pretty good, right?" Ji Yangyang said proudly.

"It's okay, but I just listen to the noise. I can't run. It's either speeding or traffic is blocked." Chen Jinnian said, and then moved his butt again. "Also, why is your seat so uncomfortable? It's killing me."

Ji Yangyang rolled his eyes at him and said, "This is a lightweight design specially modified by my uncle. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."

"Uncle Liu is really idle. If I tell you to do it the way you feel comfortable, you'll have several aunts by now." Chen Jinnian lied.

Ji Yangyang smiled and said, "You can talk to him later and see if he can deal with you."

"Hehe, I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense, don't accuse a good person." Chen Jinnian directly denied three times in a row.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at a fairly large entertainment center. The first floor was a karting theme park, and the second and third floors were cinemas. There were quite a few people coming to play, but most of them were young people.

Going up to the second floor, I met Ji Yangyang's uncle, Liu Zheng.

"Da Yangzi, Jinnian, you're here." He greeted them while sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Uncle Liu"

Chen Jinnian walked over, found a seat and sat down.

Liu Zheng said to his nephew, "Big Yangzi, he had someone modify your racing car for you. He adjusted the angle of the front wheels, the ratio of the carburetor's air intake and fuel injection, and widened the rear track by one centimeter. Hurry up and change your clothes and try it out."

This was great news for Ji Yangyang, and he said excitedly, "Thank you, uncle."

Then he trotted all the way to the locker room.

"Jinnian, why haven't you come out to play recently? I have a few more cars here, how about you try them out?" Liu Zheng said to Chen Jinnian again. It was obvious that this was not the other party's first time here and he was already very familiar with the place.

"Don't worry." Chen Jinnian said, "I have something more important to discuss with Uncle Liu."

"Hmm?" Liu Zheng was a little confused. "What's the matter? Just tell me."

Chen Jinnian didn't keep the secret any longer and asked directly, "Uncle Liu, I have a film and television project in hand. I wonder if you are not interested."

He was planning to raise investment to film "The Beginning".

"Film and television project? Is it a project from your father's company?" Liu Zheng asked. He knew something about Chen Jinnian's family situation, so he immediately thought that this was an investment project of his father's company.

"No, no, it's my own film and television project. It has nothing to do with my dad." Chen Jinnian quickly explained, "I'm planning to make a web series and I'm trying to attract investment."

Liu Zheng's first reaction was that Chen Jinnian was joking, but seeing how serious he looked, it seemed that he was not joking.

"Jinnian, are you serious?"

"Of course it's true. I just finished filming a movie and am now planning the next project. It just so happened that I met you today, so I wanted to talk to you, a wealthy bachelor." Chen Jinnian said.

Liu Zheng runs a 4S store, which also includes the sales and parallel imports of sports cars. In addition to the operation of an entertainment center, he personally has no shortage of money.

"Wow, they've already finished filming one, when did they get it out?" Liu Zheng asked in surprise.

"This summer, I asked my family for several million and filmed it. The post-production will be completed soon and we will be able to see it next month. There will be no problem making a profit." Chen Jinnian exaggerated the investment.

From two million to several million, it is up to Liu Zheng to imagine it himself. As for whether it is profitable or not, he will just brag about it later.

Liu Zheng has been in the business world for many years, so he is not someone who can be fooled with just a few words. However, since Chen Jinnian's family dared to invest money, and it is an investment of several million, they must have some plans.

He thought about it for a while, neither refusing nor agreeing, after all, he knew too little information at the moment.

"How about this, I don't know much about this film and television project either. Please send me the script first and I'll ask someone to take a look at it. Also, when your movie is released, I'll support you."

In fact, Liu Zheng's words were already very respectful, and the reaction was much better than Chen Jinnian expected.

"Of course, don't worry. I'll give you the script in two days," Chen Jinnian said. He hadn't printed out the script yet. "The time hasn't been determined yet. For now, we've only confirmed that it will be released on Penguin Video, with a viewing-based profit sharing system. Be sure to check out my masterpiece then."

Hearing his confident tone, Liu Zheng also smiled. He would really take a closer look at the movie. If the movie was good, it would be no problem to invest in the next project.

"That's no problem," Liu Zheng said with a smile, then told him to go change his clothes. "Come on, let's go run a couple of laps on the track and see if you've made any progress."

Liu Zheng likes to tinker with racing cars, but his skills are average, so he usually just bullies Chen Jinnian, who is even less skilled.

"OK, old rules, whoever loses buys drinks." Chen Jinnian agreed.

The two changed their clothes, put on their helmets, and set off from the starting point.

It's so lively with everyone chasing each other on the track.

Don’t be fooled by the small size of the kart, its actual speed is not slow. A racing kart can easily reach over 130 km/h, and because of its extremely low chassis, the relative speed perceived by the driver is even faster than the actual speed.

However, due to the small venue and short track, Liu Zheng cannot equip this type of kart here. He uses modified entertainment karts. Even so, the maximum speed can exceed 70 kilometers per hour.

From the sidelines, one can clearly hear the sound of karts speeding past and the roar of numerous engines.

After running two laps, Chen Jinnian was the first to return to the starting point. After a while, Liu Zheng drove into the venue.

Taking off his heavy helmet, Liu Zheng shouted, "That's great, Jinnian. After not seeing you for a summer vacation, your driving skills have improved by leaps and bounds."

"That's right, a man should be looked at with new eyes after three days of absence."

"Hahaha, okay, I'll give you the advantage today. I'll buy you whatever you want to drink." Liu Zheng smiled heartily and got up from the kart.

"Taro milk tea is fine, with ice and less sugar." Chen Jinnian said proudly. In the past, he always lost more than he won, but he ran errands to buy drinks. Today he can finally take a break.

"No problem, I'll go buy it." Liu Zheng said, "I'll tell Big Yangzi to come over later and just run a couple of laps. The whole family has to go out for dinner soon."

Chen Jinnian responded with an OK gesture.

When Ji Yangyang came back, I told him this again, but he seemed a little uninterested after listening to it and didn't seem to care much.

Chen Jinnian shrugged helplessly. There was nothing he could do. This was the trouble of happiness.

Who let them have a father who is not at home, the district chief?
