Chapter 31 Investment (Please vote! Please read on!)
Li Qing squatted by the roadside, looking at the busy road with cars coming and going, raising gray dust.

If it hadn't rained, Li Qing would have been drenched in dirty water.

Unfortunately, reality is not a movie. The weather does not serve to highlight the protagonist’s mood, and he is not the protagonist.

Li Qing sighed as he looked at the script he had spent several hours working on.

After he separated from Lin Xiaoyu, he began to write down the plot in his mind in his previous life, mixed with some information about the granddaughter of the white-haired old man and the missing senior sister Tian Yunyi.

After all, I said I was helping the white-haired old man find someone, so I just wrote it down, such as where he disappeared and where he was before he disappeared.

After writing the rough script, Li Qing took Su Qianqian to the western suburbs shooting base.

Let's try our luck and see if we can find investors who are optimistic about them. In addition to the filming bases, there are also many coffee shops and milk tea shops in the western suburbs, which are very popular among some investors and freelance creators. Most of them choose to discuss things in them.

But unfortunately, after Li Qing shared their idea with some company investors, most of them were absent-minded and none of them considered it further.

Most people told Li Qing directly that this movie would not make a lot of money, and some even asserted that it would definitely lose money in the end.

Investing in this script can be regarded as investing in charity. Apart from earning a good reputation, you will gain nothing.

But do these small companies need this useless good reputation? This is something that large companies need to consider when cultivating their reputation.

Large companies have their own dedicated scriptwriters and do not need to purchase scripts or investments from outside. They cannot even take care of their own filming teams, so how can they have the time to film outside works?

What's more, the person who wrote the script was Li Qing, a guy who doesn't even have a director's license.

A few people with better intentions, seeing that Li Qing's original intention was to prevent human trafficking, even persuaded Li Qing to give up looking for investors because it was bound to be a waste of effort.

Businessmen who are only interested in profit are not worthy of investment.

Li Qing ran around several times and talked to several investors, but the same thing happened to him.

Finally, he was so tired that he squatted on the side of the road to rest.

"Brother, I told you you're too white."

Next to him, a middle-aged man with a cigarette in his mouth, puffing out smoke, spoke to Li Qing in a condescending tone.

"How can you directly tell investors that your script was just created not long ago? Even your ideas only came up this morning. There is an air of unprofessionalism between the lines."

“Brother, but those are all true.”

Li Qing replied helplessly that the older man next to him was called Yin Zhenglong, whom he met when he was looking for investors. He claimed to be a freelance creator and was looking for investors for his film project.

"So you're too straightforward." Yin Zhenglong took a deep puff of his cigarette and said slowly, "If you want to lay eggs, you have to borrow a chicken first."

"You can't even take the first step of borrowing a hen to lay eggs, how can you possibly lay your own eggs?"

"Many investors cannot tell whether a script is good or not, but they are smart people and will read your demeanor. You must give them a good impression."

"Besides, how can you just come in casual clothes? The first impression is a death sentence. It's too unqualified. At least spend a hundred to rent a decent old suit."

"Haha, I didn't want to either." Li Qing smiled bitterly, "This was completely an accident at the beginning."

Li Qing himself was also confused. He had just fought with a sneaky guy using superpowers last night.

As a result, we prepared to shoot a movie the next day, and even took action to run to the western suburbs shooting base to look for investors.

He could only say: Six!

This world is becoming increasingly incomprehensible to me.

"Remember, you can't have the mentality of thinking that you are a liar. You are inherently weak." Yin Zhenglong taught, "You must have the mentality of holding a trump card in your hand and having a treasure map but lacking a boat. Believe in yourself unconditionally."

"Investors will only believe you if you don't believe in yourself. Who will believe in you?"

"Brother, you told me this, aren't you afraid that I will learn it secretly and then take away all your investment?"

"Well, I'm on the same page as those investors. You're no threat to us. It's too simple."

"You're an expert, bro." Li Qing laughed. He could explain how to find investment very clearly.

This guy is also a talent.

"That's right. If I hadn't found my mentor, you would have seen my name on the big screen by now."

"Then congratulations, brother, on realizing your dream soon. When the time comes, remember to support your old friend who once shared the road with you."

"Okay, okay, give me a level 50 now, and I'll make you a general later."

"Haha, it's better to believe that I am Qin Shi Huang than to believe you."

At this time, Li Qing saw Su Qianqian jogging back.

"Brother, let's make a deal. My younger sister is back. Let's put out the cigarette." Li Qing stopped smiling and said to Yin Zhenglong. He was a non-smoker, and the original owner's financial situation also made it impossible for him to smoke. He didn't care whether other people smoked or not.

But he didn't want Su Qianqian to breathe other people's secondhand smoke, which was unhealthy.

Yin Zhenglong didn't say anything, but spat the remaining cigarette onto the ground and immediately put it out with his toes.

I also fanned it to allow air to circulate and reduce the smell of smoke.

At this time, Su Qianqian had already walked in. She was still carrying her big guitar case without caring about other people's eyes, and immediately handed Li Qing a bottle of mineral water with a smile.

"Come, drink the water."

She had been running around the western suburbs with Li Qing for the entire afternoon. The hot weather also caused a few drops of sweat to slide down her little face, but she still trotted to buy mineral water for Li Qing.

"Uh...Qianqian is so good." Li Qing looked at Su Qianqian who was staring at him intently with an expression asking for praise. He also gave his own praise and rubbed her breasts.

The little boy had been running around with him for the entire afternoon and had been very well behaved and not making any trouble.

Hearing the compliment, Su Qianqian instantly showed a happier smile, and then casually threw another bottle of mineral water to Yin Zhenglong.

"Give you one, too."

"You really treat me differently. Can't you just give it to me with a smile?" Yin Zhenglong kept chattering, "And why is this kid's mineral water more expensive, while mine is cheap."

“Because it’s different, the water you drink is also different.”

Su Qianqian's strong rebuttal left Yin Zhenglong speechless. He certainly would not argue with the little girl. This incredibly beautiful little girl had been well-behaved when Li Qing was talking to her, and he had seen it with his own eyes.
