Chapter 98: Chapter 98: The Three Hundred Million Big Business (Vote for Monthly Pass!)

Lu Man’s mouth hung open slightly, startled.

"Don’t ask how much to invest, but how much is needed?"

How magnanimous was that statement—just how much money did that mean?

Could it be that Chen Yan was actually a hidden super-rich second-generation, with more money in hand than one could count? ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Now that he finally saw his own potential to be a superstar, was he boldly investing?

Thinking this, she began to hesitate.

She felt that asking for too much seemed a bit improper. But to ask for too little... it seemed like she was underestimating Chen Yan.

Thus, after pondering for two seconds, she carefully put out five fingers, "How about... three hundred million?"

The moment she uttered the figure, she herself felt a bit guilty.

"Pfft!" Yu Qiao Qiao, who had been watching the whole time, sprayed out her bottled water.

She looked at Lu Man in astonishment, "Sister Man Man!"

But before she could finish speaking, Chen Yan’s calm and collected voice rang in her ear, "Three hundred million? Okay, no problem."

Lu Man: ...

Yu Qiao Qiao: ...

Yu Qiao Qiao felt dizzy, as if she were dreaming.

Where was she? What was she doing?

How could she feel heartache over a sister making a thousand yuan in the afternoon, then witness a "transaction" of three hundred million at night?

One dared to ask, and the other really dared to give!

As Yu Qiao Qiao was astonished, Lu Man’s heart was also "thumping" away.

Her "excellent" acting skills were almost unable to maintain her relaxed façade.

Oh my! Oh my! Oh my!

He actually agreed!?

She had just blurted it out!

Her face full of shock, she looked at Chen Yan, "Do you have... that much money?"

Chen Yan spoke the truth, "No."

For a moment, Lu Man felt strangely relieved.

She had felt too much pressure just before.

But before she could relax for long, her heart tensed up again as Chen Yan spoke up.

He said, "However... I can earn it. I can pay you in installments. Like ten million this month. Another ten million next month. Considering the intervals, about a billion a year. Three billion in three years."

"Is that kind of three hundred million okay?"

Lu Man and Yu Qiao Qiao were once again stunned as they looked at Chen Yan.

Completely shocked by his words.

After a moment, Lu Man, with her long legs, walked up to Chen Yan, grabbed his hand firmly and declared, "Chen Yan! You, my friend, I’m keeping!"

"We just hit it off too well!"

"I just love this kind of self-confidence!"

"I have plenty of it!"

Chen Yan: ...

Please.

What I said is the truth. As long as I "sponsor" such a spendthrift like you, earning three billion in three years is easy.

But for you... becoming a superstar might be a bit difficult...

At this moment, Yu Qiao Qiao, sitting to the side, was so stunned that her eyes glazed over, feeling as if her brain was about to short-circuit from overload.

After a while, she finally regained her senses, and anxiously looked at Chen Yan, who was shaking hands amicably with Lu Man, "Chen Yan. Have you gone mad? Three hundred million! Where are you getting that much money from?"

"Even if you’re paying in installments, ten million a month. That’s a lot too. How can you ensure you’ll earn that much every month?"

Chen Yan coughed and responded, "You have to believe in my ability. I always have a way. If it comes down to it, I’ll sign a breach of contract agreement with Lu Man. I delay by a day, I’ll pay her ten million."

Yu Qiao Qiao said somewhat frantically, "I’m not questioning you."

"It’s just, I am..."

Yu Qiao Qiao, almost too anxious to speak, said, "I mean, you’re investing so much in Sister Man Man, what about our game company?"

"You’re not doing games anymore?"

Hearing Yu Qiao Qiao’s heartfelt words, for a moment Chen Yan didn’t know how to counter this adorable girl.

The reason he was investing so much in Lu Man was to have more money for gaming...

With such a big gamble, we won’t lack funds for game production!

And just as the atmosphere became tense, Lu Man let go of Chen Yan’s hand, smoothing things over, "Qiao Qiao. Don’t take it so seriously."

"Chen Yan was just kidding. He just wanted to express his support for me."

"Even if he did give that much money, my startup company couldn’t spend it all."

Hearing Lu Man’s explanation, Yu Qiao Qiao let out a small sigh of relief.

If that was the case... then it wasn’t too bad.

What neither girl had anticipated was that Chen Yan interrupted Lu Man.

He stood up, pulled a contract out of his bag, and said seriously, "I’m not joking. I’m not just offering ’symbolic support’. I truly believe in Lu Man’s development. And I also want to break into the film industry."

"So. Three hundred million. I’m investing."

Saying this, he passed the contract to Lu Man, "This is the investment intent contract."

"I believe you’ll definitely become a superstar. And I believe that, no matter what terms I give you, compared to the future returns, there won’t be a loss."

"So... the terms, you fill in whatever you want."

"Shares, price, treatment, salary, whatever you ask for. I’m easygoing."

"My only requirement is that you will be in this company in the future."

Lu Man looked at Chen Yan with a slightly dazed expression in her pretty eyes.

Since she was a child, she had been lively, often acting before thinking. This was the reason for her occasional goofy behavior.

But she wasn’t stupid.

She knew her abilities and also understood that her popularity was largely due to luck.

Although she was confident in her beauty, her potential, and that she could undoubtedly become a superstar, it was under the condition that she slowly filled in her capabilities.

In the past, whether she spoke to her family or to Sister Mei Li, she would only get some perfunctory responses. Although they verbally "agreed," their expressions revealed they truly didn’t believe.

But today, she actually met someone who believed in her.

At that moment, she truly felt a sense of dying for a confidant!

That moment sparked an immense surge of pride in her!

I, Lu Man, am no longer fighting alone!

From today on, I will carry the hopes of Chen Yan and myself, marching towards the path of becoming a superstar! .....

...

Leaving Lu Man’s hotel room, Chen Yan hadn’t gone far when he heard Yu Qiao Qiao’s voice behind him, "Chen Yan, Chen Yan. Wait up."

Chen Yan turned his head, his face breaking into a genuine smile, "What’s up? Qiao Qiao."

He paused, "Didn’t you stay to play a bit longer?"

Yu Qiao Qiao smiled awkwardly, "Sister Man Man was already over the moon. The moment you left, she started making calls non-stop, gearing up to recruit people. She had no time to pay attention to me."

Chen Yan chuckled, "That’s normal. She’s also a person chasing dreams, after all."

Listening to Chen Yan’s words, Yu Qiao Qiao paused.

The series of questions she had wanted to ask suddenly felt hard to voice out.

Was it all for the sake of dreams that Chen Yan supported Sister Man Man so much?

She thought about Lu Man’s typical behavior.

Indeed, Lu Man had always been striving to become a superstar...

Without asking why Chen Yan wanted to give so much money to Lu Man, Yu Qiao Qiao brought up another topic, "Then... aren’t you afraid Sister Man Man will lose all your money?"

Chen Yan said with a smile, "Not afraid."

Losing money? It’d be great if she lost money. If she doesn’t, how could I continue investing in her?

Although that’s what he thought, Chen Yan couldn’t say that outright.

He paused, then said, "Because..."

"I believe that as long as you hold onto your dreams, you will never lose."

"I trust every person who possesses dreams."

Saying that, he stopped, placed his hands on Yu Qiao Qiao’s shoulders, and looked straight into her eyes, earnestly saying,

"Qiao Qiao, you too. If you have any dreams, you must tell me. I will help you achieve them like I did with Lu Man, no, with even greater effort than I offered her."
