Chapter 87: Marriage

"If you really love him, you should help him, not drag him down. If you just want to find a backer, you can come to me with your ability. You are always welcome. ”

This sentence was the last sentence Gu Xiaoni heard before leaving.

On the way home, she didn't choose to take a taxi.

The black sky is full of dark clouds, and tonight's dark night has no shadow of starlight, let alone the brightness of the moon.

Pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, hurrying back home to rest after work.

But she didn't want to go back.

The past hurried like flowing water, and the flow of scenes in front of her eyes impacted her heart and made her uneasy.

Thinking back to all that in the past, she suddenly felt that meeting him was a gift from God, a gift from God, a favor from fate, and not the luck she deserved.

In the face of the economic crisis, she couldn't do anything for him, and he gave up Lin Cui's support for her.

She watched the news and knew that the current situation was urgent, except for Xingli, no company came out to put out the fire, firstly, they did not have so much money, and secondly, they were afraid that Dawan would lose money.

500 million, if it can't be replaced, Ying Jianlin will be recorded in the credit report, becoming an indelible black spot, in addition, there is also an asset freeze.

If you can't do it, it's a big deal. Yingjia is likely to go bankrupt from now on.

It's May now, Dawan Real Estate still has 20 billion left to repay, Ying Xingchen has also cashed out and repaid 500 million, and Ying Zeyu has also used part of the funds to repay 300 million.

There are still 1.7 billion left.

Without 300 million Dawan Film and Television, it hurts its vitality, and it does not dare to be extravagant in terms of investment, and there is only one web series and one animated movie produced online.

If these two movies can't make 500 million, they will have to mortgage the theater chain.

There are still three months left, and Ying Zeyu's term of office is about to expire.

Gu Xiaoni's heart always had an invisible pressure following her.

Standing downstairs, she stared at the light upstairs, took a deep breath, relaxed her tense heart, and wanted to pretend that the years were quiet.

But the sadness in her eyes and the news that spread quickly betrayed her.

Back at home, Ying Zeyu sat on the sofa tiredly, with his back to her.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he asked coldly, "Where have you been?" ”

The sudden question stunned her.

Luckily, she had already thought of the answer to her question before she went home.

"I went to talk about copyright, and it was quite successful. In two days, the money will be in the account. ”

She was telling the truth, not lying.

Ying Zeyu has been spinning in recent days, and his spirit is not very strong, and the dark circles under his eyes are hanging on his face again.

He learned about Gu Xiaoni through the previous editor, and when he heard her answer, he asked coldly, "What did you talk to Lin Cui?"

"No, I talked to Lin Zhen. ”

After answering indifferently, Gu Xiaoni, who had changed her shoes, walked up to him and sat down quietly, opposite them was a huge floor-to-ceiling window, and outside the window was the bright night view of the city.

The night is beautiful, but it's also easy to let go of your guard and speak your mind.

They looked out the window together, staring at the fireworks in the world, thinking about the sadness of the journey.

"Oh, what did he say to you. ”

She went to see other men, he was not angry, and he was not qualified to be angry, he understood what Xingli was offering such a high price for, but he didn't expect that he would need a woman to help him in the end.

In his life, he never begged anyone, but he didn't expect that this time, he would plant a huge heel and fall to the point where he needed the sympathy of others in order to live.

"You met with Lin Cui, and then you rejected her 500 million. ”

There was no sound in the tone, but in fact, Gu Xiaoni's heart was tangled and complicated.

That's a lot of money.

"Yes, there is. If the movies and TV series in July can't make that much money, I will give the theater chain to Xingli as collateral. ”

It was a difficult decision to give up, but in the face of the choice, he had to give up something.

After a long silence, Gu Xiaoni asked with difficulty:

"If it weren't for me, would you agree to Lin Cui?"

On the way home, she kept thinking about it.

She was uncomfortably breathless, as if she was carrying a mountain on her back, and she couldn't take a step.

"If it weren't for you...... My father wouldn't have agreed to me selling so easily. After all, I'm just holding shares. ”

The shares are ostensibly his, but in fact, the beneficiary is his father.

This answer cleverly avoided her question.

But when Gu Xiaoni heard the answer, not only did she not reduce the pressure in her heart, but felt that the list was heavier.

"Am I ...... It's been dragging you down...... Since you came to Jinghai, not only have I not helped, but also added to your blockage, if it weren't for me, wouldn't your life be better? ”

With a soft sigh, tears slipped from the pale skin involuntarily, and the warm tears dripped on the back of her hand, turning into cold and piercing ice, falling into her heart, piercing her with pain.

His arm gently hugged her who was sobbing, and he replied in a sangsang voice: "I never blamed you, this incident is a problem between me and my father, and it has nothing to do with you." I believe I can raise 500 million. ”

Gu Xiaoni didn't speak again, just tears were falling from her eyes.

Ying Zeyu watched her cry, and the sourness in her heart surged into the corners of her eyes, and she also cried.

The silent tears of human beings, mixed with the honking of cars, form a kind of joy and sorrow that is common in the world.

People always say that husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes. Now Dawan is facing a dilemma and needs to get out of it, which requires time, money, and a vicious investment vision.

In order to save money, Ying Zeyu thought of the issue of layoffs.

Dawan's employees are scattered, scattered, and the departments that can be streamlined are streamlined and optimized.

In order to make money for Ying Zeyu, Gu Xiaoni worked hard to make drainage plans in Guoqing, and during this time, Guoqing's profitability increased tenfold, and Gu Xiaoni also changed from a guest editor to one of the core personnel, and also picked up the knowledge department that she had studied in school before, and worked hard to make money.

Originally, the net profit of a month could only earn 30,000 or 40,000 yuan, but now the net profit of a month can reach more than 300,000 yuan.

Although 300,000 is not much, it is a huge improvement compared with before, and Gu Xiaoni's monthly salary has also risen from more than 10,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan.

The money saved during these years, plus the manuscript fee, Gu Xiaoni also has a lot of savings.

She wanted to take out the money and give it to Ying Zeyu urgently, but Ying Zeyu refused, saying that he didn't want to use a woman's money, and he would appear to be incompetent.

In July, "The Arrival of the Demon Baby" and "Hello August" were officially released.

On the day of the release, Gu Xiaoni sat in the movie theater with him, watching the movie like an ordinary couple.

Although he had already seen the sample film in the company, he decided to contribute to the box office.

The movie was in a hurry, in order to return to the cost, there was no network warm-up, no marketing, and just like that, it was suddenly released in Dawan Theater.

The set was sparse, and in the huge hall, only two couples with children came to watch.

It's miserable, it's miserable.

In the hall next door is the hit "Fast and Racing 8", which is a US action blockbuster with an attendance rate of more than 80%, compared to the hall of "The Arrival of the Demon Baby".

Although not many people watched it, Gu Xiaoni still watched the movie from beginning to end seriously.

The detail animation is very good.,Very delicate.,It can be said that domestic animation can reach the top level.,The content of the story is also very good.,It's about a demon boy who descended into the divine realm.,The story of the bohemian experience in the world and finally the positive result.。

This is a cartoon, but it tells the most sincere feelings between people, the true interaction between parents and the mutual support between friends are vividly portrayed, and the rhythm of the animation is also set very well.

After reading the whole article, Gu Xiaoni said such a sentence to Ying Zeyu when she appeared.

"This movie, you voted for it right. ”

At that time, when Ying Zeyu invested in this movie, Gu Xiaoni once felt a little lost, there were too many movies that could be made for 200 million, why did she have to invest in an animated film that burned a lot of money?

She felt that cartoons were for children.

But when she really sat in the cinema and watched this anime movie, she felt the truth of the characters in it, its emotions, its uninhibitedness, its agility and well-behaved.

The character is vividly displayed through small things close to life, appearing on the screen, and what she sees, in addition to anime, is more of a sharpness and innocence that adults lack.

This is an anime for adults.

Ying Zeyu was very relieved to know her attitude, and when he saw the finished film, he also felt that this film would definitely be brilliant, and his efforts would not be in vain.

But reality hit him hard.

After a week of release, the box office results were dismal, and he was beaten down by the next door.

Seeing that August is approaching, Dawan's account room is about to be emptied, and he is even more powerless to do publicity.

Unexpectedly, at the end of July, this movie suddenly became popular.

This is something that even Ying Zeyu didn't expect.

Overnight, websites large and small were discussing the film.

Weibo, space, and small videos are all spreading the image photos of this movie.

The box office rushed all the way to 500 million, and Dawan got 250 million. Although he returned to his capital, Ying Zeyu did not earn as much money as agreed during his tenure, and he still owed a large amount of debt to the bank.

When he made the will, he didn't expect that there would be a crisis, and after the crisis, he and Ying Zeyu talked on the phone and decided to give him another month.

By September 1st, if he doesn't catch another billion billion, he will be kicked out of Dawan.

The pressure increased suddenly, and 50 million could only be a drop of rain falling in the fire, and it was gone all at once.

Fortunately, the box office is still increasing, and in August, it has reached one billion.

The goal of 500 million was about to be achieved, but something went wrong on Gu Xiaoni's side.

She left a letter behind and ran away from home.

It reads like this:

Dear Zeyu, forgive me for my selfishness and ignorance, I took advantage of you and became who I am now, and you gave me all this I have today. Now, the company is facing difficulties, and I know that the road ahead may not be easy, so I chose to leave.

There are 30 million in this card I gave you, and you can use it, and I earned it from you, and it is a matter of course to return it to you.

Take this money and make Dawan better.

Don't come to me, there will be a difference in life, so let's separate from now on.

On the envelope is the diamond ring she left behind.

When he got home and saw her letter, he went crazy looking for her in his room.

Cosmetics, her computer, her clothes were all taken away, and the rest, was his.

In order to find her, he circled around Jinghai three times, but he didn't see any trace of her, and went to her house again, but he still didn't find her.

No one knows where she went.

He called the police and said that his fiancΓ©e was missing, and after the police contacted Gu Xiaoni, they told Ying Zeyu that she didn't want to see him. Tell him not to look for her.

At night, lying in bed, his face was stained with tears.

There was still her smell on the quilt, and he hugged the quilt tightly, and his heart hurt beyond measure.

It was as if the heart had been hollowed out alive and filled with tears and pain.

All the memories turned gray, and the tears flowed uncontrollably.

He didn't understand why Gu Xiaoni wanted to leave him, she gave him all the 30 million she earned, which proved that she was not a woman who was greedy for money, so why did she leave him?

He couldn't figure it out.

In the silence of the night, only the sobs of men remained.

At the beginning of September, the box office of "The Arrival of the Demon Baby" exceeded 2 billion, Dawan's financial crisis was slowly lifted, and his debts were gradually reduced.

Standing in the office, Ying Jianlin patted him on the shoulder, stared at his baby son with satisfaction, and said with satisfaction: "I knew you could." I have always believed in you, you are the best son I have. ”

This success successfully solved the crisis of Dawan, neither mortgaged the theater chain, nor lost much money, and became a classic investment case in the film and television industry.

Ying Jianlin is very happy that his son can win glory for him.

"Although I have honor and flowers, my she has left me. ”

The man in front of him was very sad, and the gray hair on his head showed his old age.

Since Gu Xiaoni left, he had lost his heart overnight, and he had grown a lot of gray hair, and he was ten years old in an instant.

"It's okay, Lin Guohua, you know, it's the boss of Xingli Film and Television, he has a daughter, he likes you very much, do you want to meet? Their family is the boss of the TV drama industry, although your "Hello August" is a small success, but it is not a big profit, can you follow Lin Cui to learn from the experience of the TV drama industry. ”

Ying Jianlin's tone didn't seem to be joking, he was talking to Ying Zeyu very seriously, but Ying Zeyu didn't mean to hear it.

Unexpectedly, his father actually asked him to go on a blind date with a woman he didn't like.

Legend has it that big families need to marry, and now it's a new era, so why play the same old ways?

It's okay to play the same old thing, why does it have to be Lin Cui?

"I've known her for a long time, but I don't like her, she's with me, don't you understand? She just covets my family's property, if I were an ordinary person, would she still like me? She won't!"

Ying Zeyu's words were very impulsive, he didn't think Lin Cui really liked him.

"I take a fancy to her, and I also fancy the resources behind her, where will there be feelings in the business world? Isn't everyone here like this? You seem to have lifted the crisis of Dawan, but in fact, I sold two-thirds of the assets of Dawan Real Estate, and the assets have shrunk significantly, think about it, if "The Arrival of the Demon Baby" didn't make you so much money, you are also a scum now, you have to fight for resources if you have resources, what is it to sacrifice a little personal interests?"

The father and son quarreled in the office, and Ying Jianlin was almost angry with Ying Zeyu.

In the TV drama industry, Xingli is the leader, if you don't cooperate with the leader, who do you want to cooperate with?

His son did not listen to persuasion and was unwilling to associate with the other party, Lin Guohua put out his words, saying that he hoped that the two families would become allies, but when he came to his son, it became: the other party is the money that loves him.

Doesn't the other party's family have money?

What kind of bullshit thinking is Ying Zeyu?!

"I have to make my own decisions about my marriage! I don't want others to interfere with me! I don't want to have money and no love in my relationship!"

The roar blurted out made Ying Jianlin's heart hurt, and he hurriedly covered his chest, his lips turned purple and his face turned blue.

There was a breath of air in his chest that rushed up, against the position of his heart, and he was in pain and out of breath.

Seeing this, Ying Zeyu hurriedly went up to help, but he didn't expect to be thrown away by Ying Jianlin.

"If you don't get engaged to Lin Cui, I'll sell this business! Anyway, I, a bad old man, can get a lot of pension money by cashing out!"

Sitting on the chair in one breath, he kept soothing the stuffiness in his chest, and coughed twice from time to time.

Ying Zeyu stood beside him, his eyes stayed on his gray-haired and aging face, and his heart was full of grief.

Why is life so difficult, why does he lose family affection and love.

Now his only father is also quarreling with him over marriage.

Staring at his father, his heart sank.

It's been a month, and Gu Xiaoni has no news at all.

Did she really take advantage of him?

Her book, no updates, her start point ID, no new movement, and no movement on Guoqing's account.

His WeChat was deleted by her, he sent her a message, and the ministry was ignored.

Weibo was directly logged out, and there was not even a shadow.

She disappeared like the world evaporated.

For the sake of face, Ying Zeyu and Lin Cui met at the hotel and sat together.

Lin Cui, who has not been seen for a long time, is still so charming, although she came from Hanghu City specially and is a little tired, but it does not affect her beauty.

"You have to come back to me at last. ”

On the table in front of the two of them, there was a dessert of ice cream and a cup of black tea.

Lin Cui tasted a mouthful of molecular ice cream, and the coldness that melted in her mouth did not extinguish the anger in her heart, and she remembered the shame in her heart when she was rejected last time.
