Chapter 19 Sister-in-law 3
Seeing her older brother staring blankly at her, Huang Yun immediately became anxious: "You can't even do something this simple! Forget it, let me help you start the conversation. It's easy, just send some greetings, for example..."
talking.
Huang Yun used her older brother's phone to add the counselor's number to her contacts, and then sent a message: "Teacher An, this is Huang Yun's brother, Huang Min. I had a great time with you today. Are you free tomorrow? I'd like to invite you to a movie."
As Huang Yun edited the message, she read it aloud, then clicked send. Turning to her older brother, she said, "See? It's that simple. First, express your intentions, then send the invitation. With your good looks, Teacher An definitely won't refuse."
The phone rang within a minute.
Huang Min looked over curiously.
"Isn't it easy...?"
Before she could finish speaking, Huang Yun opened the message and saw An He's reply, which clearly stated: "I can tell you're a good person, but we're not a good match."
"this……"
Noticing her older brother staring at her, Huang Yun chuckled awkwardly, her voice lacking confidence: "Brother, it seems my tutor isn't exactly giving you a 'friend zone' card."
Huang Xiaoyun
Reaching out to pat his younger sister on the shoulder, Huang Min couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Your flirting skills aren't great either." After saying that, Huang Min went into his room.
The tutor of her younger sister knew about her suicide attempt.
This means that it's impossible for him not to have seen so many negative news stories about himself, and some media outlets have reported on his bankruptcy. Under such circumstances, even if he is handsome, it's unlikely that he would be interested in her.
Actually, Huang Min himself didn't care. If An He really didn't have a boyfriend, he would be willing to get to know her better. Anyway, he would definitely get married in the future, so finding someone outside the entertainment industry wouldn't be bad.
However, it was clear that they were unwilling to give him that opportunity.
"Brother, don't be discouraged."
A voice came from behind him: "Should I send another one!?"
"Stop sending it."
Huang Min laughed and replied, "Given your brother's current condition, no woman with a modicum of intelligence would approach him. Alright, go take a shower and go to bed."
"There might be something wrong with what I posted. Let me try posting it again."
Done.
Huang Yun thought for a moment, then sent another message using her older brother's phone. After receiving a reply, Huang Yun secretly glanced at the second bedroom, then looked away. She quietly deleted the message she had just sent and Teacher An He's reply.
Early the next morning.
Huang Yun was sleeping in bed when she heard a knock on the door, followed by her older brother's voice: "Coming!" and then a woman's voice.
"I've already rented the equipment you need for filming, it costs a total of 126,000 per month."
Huang Yun suddenly opened her eyes.
She threw back the covers, put on her slippers, and came out.
A woman at least 1.7 meters tall appeared in her living room. She was as beautiful as her counselor, Ms. An He, and this woman also had a capable and efficient demeanor.
With gentle and elegant features, soft eyes, and light makeup, she wore a crisp white shirt and a high-waisted skirt, exuding the aura of a powerful career woman. Huang Yun's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Are you the Sister Su my brother was talking about?!"
"right"
Su Qing nodded. After hearing Huang Min take the rental receipt and ask, "How can it be so cheap!?", Su Qing replied, "The film and television industry is in a slump right now. Besides many people being unemployed, the equipment rental business isn't doing well either. And what you need isn't top-of-the-line filming equipment; many companies have that, so the price is relatively low. As for the other staff you need, we can find them in two days at most. Production costs are tight, so I think it's best to start filming as soon as possible. Didn't you say you're a great actor? Then there's no need to give the male lead too much time to study the script. If his acting isn't up to par, you can coach him on set."
"Sister Su, you are so beautiful."
Huang Yun praised.
"Thank you, you're beautiful too."
Su Qing responded and continued, "Besides, since the male lead has chosen to take a share of the box office revenue, I think five million won't be enough for the production costs. Four and a half million should be enough. Even if this movie fails, you'll have a second chance."
This was also Su Qing's judgment after reading Huang Min's script.
She's practically a career changer now, but since choosing to work with Huang Min, a boss in the film and television industry, Su Qing spends her days busy handling things for him, and her evenings mostly researching film and television materials to gain a deeper understanding of the industry in order to better fulfill her current, yet undefined, role.
After a period of study.
Su Qing knew that the production cost of the script written by Huang Min could be reduced.
The entire story structure revolves around the male lead. In addition, many people in the film and television industry are currently unemployed. Previously, a lighting director would earn around three to five thousand a day, and the entire lighting team would earn around three hundred thousand a month. Now, it's at most two hundred thousand. The prices of art directors, sound directors, and other auxiliary shooting teams have also decreased significantly.
"We'll do as you say."
Huang Min nodded.
"Personally, I don't think you need a top-tier filming crew for this movie. A second-tier one would be fine. However, the lighting requirements are extremely high, so you need to find top-notch ones for that. If there are no problems, I'll start contacting them in a bit."
"it is good"
Huang Min nodded again, then said, "Breakfast is ready. Let's eat together before you go back to work."
Huang Yun, who had been watching Su Qing speak, finally realized what was happening and quickly said, "Sister Su, let's eat together!" Su Qing hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Huang Yun rushed into the bathroom, quickly washed up, and came out to find her older brother had already placed the cooked millet porridge, fried eggs, and steak on the table. She sat down, sipped her porridge, and asked, "Sister Su, do you have a boyfriend?"
Su Qing glanced at her.
"My annual salary used to be around 1.5 million, plus performance bonuses, and the highest I ever earned was 2.1 million. Now I work for your brother, and he pays me 50,000 a month. If nothing unexpected happens, that adds up to about 600,000 a year..."
Huang Yun blinked, only to hear Su Qing continue, "I've already lowered my salary standard so much, do you really want to waive my 600,000 annual salary as well, Huang Yun? I personally think you're being a bit cruel."
After finishing her millet porridge and a poached egg, Su Qing pulled out her chair and stood up, saying, "I'm going to work now." Only after she left did Huang Yun seem to realize what was happening: "Brother, is she always like this?!"
"Use my phone to talk to her for me in a bit."
Huang Min spoke up.
"never mind"
Huang Yun shook her head: "She doesn't speak with any emotion. If she becomes my sister-in-law... I'll be constantly torn between thinking that I might have done something wrong to offend her."
