Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?

Chapter 140 On-Site Meeting



The atmosphere in the room seemed rather dull, with no joy visible on the faces of the people; instead, they all appeared somewhat serious.

Li Jing glanced around at the people in the room, nodded slightly as a gesture, then casually found a seat in a corner and sat down, showing no intention of interrupting the meeting.

Seeing this, someone frowned slightly and was about to speak but was tugged on the sleeve by a colleague beside them.

At the colleague's indication, he turned his head to look at Wen Lan in the main seat and realized that the latter had no objection to Li Jing's sudden entry; feeling surprised inside, he quickly retracted his questioning thoughts.

Several people in the room had heard from the assistant director that an investor was coming over, and now seeing Wen Lan's attitude, nearly everyone guessed the identity of Li Jing.

At this moment, Wen Lan glanced at Li Jing and continued the meeting without interruption, speaking to everyone, "So what exactly should we do about this flower field? Does nobody have any ideas?"

Wen Lan's voice was chilled, her gaze serious; everyone instinctively avoided her gaze and remained silent.

Witnessing this, Li Jing felt somewhat surprised, noticing that Wen Lan appeared different on set than usual—more serious and authoritative.

This reminded him of Wei Jia.

They truly are close friends, having similar traits in their personalities.

However, compared to Wei Jia, Wen Lan was less imposing and domineering, more focused on serious and earnest matters.

Seeing everyone remain silent, Wen Lan coldly glanced at the middle-aged man across the table, "Props team, don't you have anything to say?"

"I..."

The expression of the man appearing to be the head of the props team changed slightly; he glanced around at his colleagues without seeing any support, his face showed difficulty as he awkwardly spoke to Wen Lan, "Director Wen, we indeed contacted them and paid the fees; they agreed the flower field would bloom at this time..."

"Bloom? Where do you see any blooms on that patch of grass? It's all weeds, where are the flowers?"

Speaking, Wen Lan waved her hand, frowning, "Besides, I don't need explanations now; I need solutions. Many scenes are to be shot in this flower field, how can I shoot without flowers?"

She scanned the room, her voice cold, "Either find a way to make the flowers bloom in this field, or find another flower field."

"The flowers here won't grow in a short time," said a bespectacled man shaking his head, "But finding another flower field would increase the cost and be difficult..."

"Yeah, this flower field was already hard to find; searching for another suitable one now is impossible."

"Besides, it's late autumn now; unless it's specially cultivated or scattered, how could it bloom at this time..."

At this point, everyone began to discuss, babbling.

But the content was still repetitive, not a single person proposed an applicable solution, which further darkened Wen Lan's expression.

"I actually have an idea."

Suddenly, Li Jing, sitting by the wall, spoke up in a soft voice, yet it instantly attracted everyone's attention.

One reason was nobody expected him to speak, another was their curiosity about him.

Upon hearing this, Wen Lan's expression changed, her delicate and beautiful eyes looked toward Li Jing against the wall, her tone softened slightly, she asked, "President Li, do you have any ideas?"

Hearing Wen Lan's address, everyone confirmed Li Jing's identity, growing increasingly curious about his answer.

"I want to first ask if this flower field is part of the scene I will be shooting later?"

Once his words fell, the expressions of the people varied; some already knew Li Jing was to play a supporting role, while others apparently just learned the news.

But everyone only glanced at Wen Lan's reaction without speaking.

Wen Lan nodded, "Indeed, you have two scenes in this flower field."

"Then I roughly know what this flower field is like."

Recently, Li Jing became familiar with the script, especially the parts concerning him.

So when everyone discussed the flower field, he immediately thought of the flower field described in the script, blooming gloriously like an ocean.

Feeling everyone's gaze, Li Jing's expression was natural as he calmly proposed his idea, "I happen to have a friend who works with flowers, with his own floral base; we can shoot at his base."

"Floral base?"

The head of the props team frowned and then queried, "We need a flower field like an ocean, is his nursery business model suitable?"

"You could ask him, and he definitely has more resources in this field than we do; maybe he has a solution."

Li Jing explained, "Moreover, it's only temporary borrowing for a few days of shooting, shouldn't be very costly."

Previously, Li Jing was in charge of projects concerning landscapes, including gardens and flower arrangement, so he knew companies of this aspect.

After hearing, everyone exchanged glances, uncertain about whether Li Jing's proposal was suitable.

After all, they only make movies, and aren't knowledgeable in the flower industry; otherwise, they wouldn't have been deceived after booking a flower field.

Only after hesitating for a moment did the props team leader say, "It sounds feasible, but we must confirm on-site, and time is relatively tight."

Upon hearing, Wen Lan waved her hand decisively, directing Li Jing, "President Li, please contact them, and the costs incurred will be covered by the crew."

"Alright."

Li Jing nodded, he immediately contacted the business owner he had worked with on projects before; after chatting for about ten minutes, he hung up the phone. ThistranslationispoweredbythereadersatM|V|LE9MPYR.

Seeing everyone's eager eyes on Li Jing, he smiled, "The base is currently inconvenient, but he mentioned that he recently did a landscape garden project for a friend, creating a flower field, he could help us connect."

Saying this, Li Jing looked at Wen Lan, "However, since he's helping us, I think the crew could collaborate with him on floral and botanical needs in the future, establishing a stable partnership for mutual assistance."

Hearing of an available flower field, Wen Lan initially showed a hint of joy, then pondered briefly, nodding, "Good, if this cooperation is pleasant, crew-related needs can be approached through him."

Li Jing mildly smiled upon hearing this, "That's good, isn't this problem solved?"

Once his words fell, seeing Wen Lan's expression truly relaxed considerably, everyone surreptitiously exhaled and began to laugh:

"President Li is truly capable; he knows many people, unlike us who lack resources in this aspect."

"Thank you, President Li, for supporting our crew; it indeed solves a major problem for us."

Seeing the change in attitude toward him, Li Jing didn't put on airs, quickly engaging in conversations with several people.

"No need to call me President Li, just use my name."

Though Li Jing said this, no one truly called him by name.

Yet besides a few older people still calling him President Li, those closer in age to Li Jing took the opportunity to start calling him Brother Jing.

Soon, Li Jing had drawn closer to the decision-makers on the set.

Listening to numerous calls of "Brother Jing, Brother Jing" in the room, Wen Lan raised an eyebrow, realizing that in just a few dozen minutes, Li Jing had smoothly blended into her crew, alleviating her original concerns.

Watching Li Jing chat familiarly with the assistant director and cinematographer, she thought:

No wonder Wei Jia holds him in high regard.

This man is wealthier than ordinary people, and more sincere and easygoing than wealthy ones, truly different from others.
