Chapter 954: The Higher the Tao, the Greater the Devil
The Prices didn’t expect him to be so generous and straightforward; everyone looked at him in surprise!The Sanders Family required a kinship relationship between the two families before investing, but now it seems Edward Sanders wasn’t as straightforward as Oscar Price!
Edward Sanders smiled subtly at Oscar Price, disbelieving that someone so young could graduate as a PhD and be chosen as Harry Hunter’s secretary, yet be so clueless enough to invest in Oscar Price’s company, who obviously got deceived.
Zoe Lewis was also skeptical, wondering what Oscar Price was up to.
He’s a very stingy person who never spends money unwisely.
Oscar Price doesn’t know Oscar Price is setting him up, confidently saying, "I’ve raised 300,000 already, still short of 200 million! This is a major production aimed at a billion box office; the director said, conservatively, it could still make 800 million!"
Zoe Lewis nearly toppled over!
He really dares to say that!
A production cost of 200 million, is he making Avengers or Avatar?
Zoe Lewis suppressed the feeling of spitting blood and asked, "Cousin, the director you know, is he called Russell or Cameron?"
"Neither, the great director I know is called Mo Wen Qian Lu, a new visionary with remarkable ideas who truly understands me!"
What kind of ridiculous name is this!
Zoe Lewis turned to Oscar Price: "Do you know this director?"
Star Region Group’s Star Region Cinemas have several famous directors and countless stars; if this director were truly great, Oscar Price would definitely know him.
Oscar Price certainly didn’t know any "Mo Wen Qian Lu," the name alone sounded unreliable—only Oscar Price would believe it.
"Cross-industry barriers are steep; I’m not very knowledgeable about the film industry, but Star Region Group has an expert team in this domain, and I can ask them to help evaluate for my cousin. However, you’ll need to pay an evaluation fee of one million first."
"What? There’s a fee?!"
Oscar Price nearly jumped up!
"Aren’t you part of Star Region Group? Just asking for a favor, why the fee?"
"I’m merely the secretary to our president, I’m not President Hunter, so I can’t directly command them. The one million is a discounted rate thanks to my connection with the expert team; normally it’s two million."
"Forget it, no need for evaluation; let’s just make the movie directly, save a million."
"You’re aiming to make eight hundred million, yet you balk at this one million?"
"I don’t have one million now. Could you loan me some? I’ll pay you back once the movie makes money."
"If you’re not willing to evaluate, I regretfully have to forgo investing since the risk is uncontrollable; my two hundred million could go down the drain, one must be cautious."
Oscar Price’s emotions were like a roller coaster; he stared wide-eyed: "What? You’re not investing after all?"
"You lack the audacity to act; quibbling over this one million. All major investments have risk assessment teams, and I offered you Star Region Group’s best team, yet you hesitate. Do you know why our President Hunter earns billions daily? Because he has guts!"
"What? Harry Hunter earns billions daily? He must be incredibly wealthy!"
"Will you make the movie or not? Once finished, you too can earn billions daily."
"Make it! Must make it!"
"Evaluate it?"
"Evaluate! Must evaluate!"
Oscar Price said indifferently, "That’s the attitude someone doing big things should have."
