Su Fan ignored them and walked straight out of the hospital, calling Dongfang Tingyin.
"The person I'm looking for is the one who appeared in the promotional video's character stills. What did you find for me?" Su Fan said, somewhat speechless.
"You want to find the lead actor. He's the lead actor on the cast list! Absolutely no mistake," Dongfang Tingyin assured Su Fan that it wasn't her fault, and she had done as Su Fan instructed.
"Hurry up and find someone else. I need the person from the character stills," Su Fan said to Dongfang Tingyin again, not dwelling on the matter.
"Okay, send me an address, and I'll pick you up later." Dongfang Tingyin had already found the film crew's shooting location and came here in person. She had made preparations for both finding the actor and looking for the crew. As soon as she knew where the crew was, she rushed over.
Coincidentally, the crew was currently seeking investors. Word was that the script and the lead actor had changed. The original investors were drawn by the actor, but with a change in lead, these investors withdrew. The crew was now in a difficult situation, trying to find investors everywhere, and Dongfang Tingyin could take this opportunity to take a look.
Su Fan sent the address to Dongfang Tingyin, and she arrived soon after.
A red Ferrari stopped in front of Su Fan.
"Get in." Dongfang Tingyin said to Su Fan, her sunglasses on, as she rolled down the window.
"Whoa! When did you buy this car?" Su Fan asked, surprised. Dongfang Tingyin owned many luxury cars, but she definitely didn't have this red Ferrari; Su Fan had seen them all before.
"Just bought it. Want a ride?" Dongfang Tingyin said generously.
"So generous? Did the sun rise from the west?" Su Fan said, disbelieving. Dongfang Tingyin was willing to be a sucker? That wasn't like her.
"What's there to say? The company reimburses me anyway," Dongfang Tingyin said indifferently.
Su Fan: ...
The sucker was me all along.
However, Su Fan had no need for luxury cars now. He mostly traveled by flying, and the monster car at home was starting to gather dust.
Dongfang Tingyin drove Su Fan to the film crew.
The crew hadn't started shooting yet, mainly because there were no sponsors and no money to film. Today, many brand representatives came to the crew to discuss sponsorships. Dongfang Tingyin was one of them, representing Hongfan Jewelry. Su Fan followed behind Dongfang Tingyin, acting as her assistant.
"Hello, representatives of all brands. Our crew has changed the script and the actors, so we need some investment. This is our lead actor, and this is the script outline. We hope to get your support," the director personally introduced Guang Long to everyone present.
Guang Long had been running around with the crew during this time, but he had also gained something, which gave him a better understanding of this world. First of all, this place was completely different from the Tianlong Dynasty. There were many magical things, such as mobile phones, televisions, computers, cars that could carry people, and even airplanes that could fly in the sky. It was countless times more powerful than the Tianlong Dynasty. However, there were also things that were inferior to the Tianlong Dynasty. So far, he hadn't encountered any martial artists he could fight. Martial artists and sorcerers seemed to not exist here. The people here, apart from using these strange contraptions, had no combat power at all.
Su Fan saw Guang Long and confirmed that he was not mistaken; the person was indeed Guang Long. Guang Long's mind was not on the recipe, so he didn't notice Su Fan hiding behind him.
"What's there to invest in for such a minor actor? Isn't that throwing money away?" The other investors lost interest as soon as they saw an unknown minor actor. They invested based on the actor's fame. The greater the fame, the greater the traffic, and their investment would not be at a loss. A minor actor really couldn't pique their interest.
"Why don't you all take a look at the script first?" The director knew that Guang Long's fame wouldn't be enough to win over these investors, but he was confident in the script. No one present read the script; they all shook their heads. Only Dongfang Tingyin was earnestly reading the script from the moment the actor was introduced. She was here to help Su Fan find someone, but she was also genuinely here to invest. Hongfan Jewelry was well-known in Xin Cheng, but it was still too small nationwide. Although they had money, their reputation was not enough. They could increase their reputation by investing in film and television dramas. The other sponsors shook their heads, got up, and left with their bags.
The director was somewhat disappointed, but seeing Dongfang Tingyin still earnestly reading the script, he seemed to regain some hope. The director looked at Dongfang Tingyin expectantly until she finished reading and closed the script.
"The script is good. Hongfan Jewelry can invest." Dongfang Tingyin made a decisive decision on the spot. She didn't value traffic stars; she only needed a good script and an actor with acting skills. She believed that as long as these two elements existed, it would definitely be a hit.
"That's great!" The director was very happy. After so many days, he had finally secured a sponsor.
"May I know how much your company can invest?" The director was still a little worried, as Hongfan Jewelry didn't seem to have a great reputation and probably couldn't invest much money.
"We'll cover all the filming costs. The first batch of investment is twenty million. If it's not enough, we can invest more later." Dongfang Tingyin was very generous. To help Hongfan Jewelry open up more markets, it was fine to spend a little more money. Exclusive sponsorship could bring better advertising effects.
"Thank you for Hongfan Jewelry's support. This is our lead actor, Guang Long," the director excitedly introduced to Dongfang Tingyin. Dongfang Tingyin naturally saw him and knew that this was the person Su Fan was looking for. She cast a subtle glance at Su Fan behind her. Although the glance was subtle, it was seen by the sharp-eyed Guang Long. Following Dongfang Tingyin's gaze, Guang Long saw Su Fan.
"Su Fan!" Guang Long was pleasantly surprised. Seeing a familiar person in a strange place naturally made him happy. Dongfang Tingyin was not surprised, but the director was a little surprised. This was because Guang Long's recent impression on him was that of a master who had just entered the world, knowing nothing and curious about everything. He didn't expect him to know anyone in real society.
"Brother Guang Long," Su Fan nodded. He knew how terrifying this person was and naturally had to be respectful.
"It's great to meet you here! By the way, how did you get here? I'm lost," Guang Long said to Su Fan somewhat sheepishly. He had come out of the snowy mountains, and when he wanted to go back, he couldn't find his way. That's why he had stayed here for so long. With the director providing food, drink, and lodging, he didn't have to worry about his living expenses. Now that he saw Su Fan, he felt the urge to go back again.
