103: Redemption
103: Redemption
Hearing Han Wen's words, Yao Nulang was so moved she almost cried. She knew this was Han Wen's promise to her, a promise that had never been easily obtained.
If they hadn't gone through thick and thin together, Han Wen would never have made such a decision. Therefore, she must cherish it, hold on tight, and never give up.
"Young Master Han, are you serious?" Yao Girl felt like she was dreaming and needed to confirm it.
"Yes, I'm very serious." Han Wen nodded.
He was very interested in this "most beautiful Qiongyao girl," and thought it would be great to have her by his side and enjoy her anytime.
Besides, Yao Girl is really going to become a sensation across mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong very soon.
At this point, having her terminate her contract with Shaw Brothers and sign with Good Cabbage Culture Agency would be an extremely profitable deal.
What does it mean to not be able to have your cake and eat it too? Sorry, but Han Wen not only wants the other person, but also wants them to make money for him.
Although signing artists from mainland China with Lianhua City now requires various approvals, it's possible to pull some strings and get things done with Korean artists.
If that's truly impossible, he'll at least make sure Yao Girl regains her freedom first.
"Young Master Han, then I'm entrusting my life to you." Yao Girl said happily.
"As long as you are devoted to me, I will naturally be devoted to you in return." Han Wen nodded and said, "Since you are willing to be with me, then I will make the arrangements for you."
Once filming is finished, fly straight back to Lotus City. Then, terminate your contract with the company and regain your freedom.
Then, I'll find a way, use my connections, to sign you to my Good Cabbage Culture Agency.
Once you join the company, I'll immediately allocate shares to you. This will make you a shareholder and leader, just like Feifei. From then on, you'll be one of the company's owners.
Working for yourself or having others work for you is much better than your current situation where you're making money for others.
You've seen my business card. I won't mention other companies, but just one, Money Tree Film & Television, can guarantee you acting opportunities and money for life.
My mother is the chairman of Yaoqianshu Film and Television, so I can interfere in all the company's projects.
When the time comes, you can act in whichever movie you want, and play whichever role you want.
Just like Feifei, as you can see, I can revise the script for her, so naturally I can revise the script for you too.
We don't take on bad projects, but we'll throw money at good ones to get them.
To be honest, although Yao Girl is much more famous than Bai Feifei, she is genuinely envious of her.
Because the other party possesses abilities and connections that she cannot currently match.
After all, if you can be your own boss, who would want to work for someone else?
The working class has a tough time; very few people can make it big. They are bullied and hurt almost their entire lives. And the situation in the entertainment industry is even more tragic.
"Young Master Han, thank you for arranging everything so well for me." Yao Girl nodded, but then sighed and lowered her head: "But, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you?"
"Why?" Han Wen asked, puzzled.
"Because I only signed with Shaw Brothers not long ago, and if I want to terminate the contract, I will need to pay a large amount of liquidated damages." Yao Girl sighed, feeling somewhat sad.
"How much?" Han asked.
"A lot," the Yao girl replied. "In mainland China, it's a huge sum of money."
"Tell me the amount," Han Wen said calmly.
"Young Master Han, what's going on?" Yao Girl could hardly believe her ears.
"Yaoyao, I'll buy your freedom," Han Wen said. "Just tell me how much it costs."
"Young Master Han, my penalty for breach of contract is at least 500,000 RMB." Yao Girl paused for a moment before telling Han Wen the amount.
"Okay, I understand. Money Tree Films has a partnership with your film and television production companies. The money can be transferred through the company account or directly to you." Han Wen continued, "Will this money be transferred to your bank account in mainland China, or will it be transferred to your bank account in Lianhua City through a bank in Zijing City?"
"Young Master Han, this money can be transferred directly to Aunt Qiongyao's studio."
She's very good to me; as long as the money arrives, I can ask her to terminate my contract.
"This is the fastest and best way." Yao Girl thought for a moment before saying, "Since I've already decided to terminate the contract, the sooner the better. I'm worried that things might change if I delay."
"Yao Yao, you're right. Let's not delay, let's go, I'll call my mom right now and have her transfer the money." Han Wen nodded, stood up, and remembered to pull Yao Yao, but then realized that his hand was still injured.
Having no other option, he abandoned the idea and quickly led the other person back to the place where he had called the police. Then, he dialed Han Qingyan's office number.
"Mom, it's me, Hanwen," Hanwen called out into the phone.
"Wenwen, why did you suddenly call me? Are you missing your mom?" Han Qingyan asked happily.
"Mom, of course I miss you, do you even need to ask?" Han Wen smiled. "Mom, I called you. First, to let you know I'm safe and sound; second, to ask how you are; and third, because I need your help with something."
"Wenwen, what do you need Mom's help with? Tell me, Mom's listening." Han Qingyan asked seriously.
Han Wen didn't mince words and directly told his mother what he needed to do. Han Yanqing agreed without hesitation.
"Okay, Wenwen, I understand. I'll arrange for the company's finance department to transfer the money at the bank right away." Han Qingyan was extremely efficient. "Is there anything else? How's Feifei?"
"Feifei is doing well, she's filming right now. The script is almost finished being revised, and I'll be going back soon." Han Wen thought for a moment and said, "Mom, there's something else I wanted to tell you beforehand."
"What is it?" Han Qingyan asked seriously when he saw his son's solemn tone.
"Mom, I've found you another daughter-in-law. That money I just gave you was for her release from prostitution." Han Wen thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "So, are you happy or angry to hear this news?"
"Wenwen, guess." Han Qingyan paused for a moment before asking.
"Mom, I won't guess, just give me the answer." Han Wen shook his head: "If you're happy, I'll go back soon. Then, I'll tell you about the new daughter-in-law."
If you're unhappy, I'll stay away for a few more days. I'll go back once you've calmed down.
"You had Mom wire the money to Lianhua City. The recipient should be from there too, right?" Han Qingyan snorted and asked, "Go revise the script. Feifei is with you every day."
"And yet you still managed to hook up with the girls on set? That takes skill. Tell me, is she a 'Yao Girl'? Is she her?"
"Mom, you guessed it so quickly?" Han Wen was stunned. His mother was so amazing; he was in increasing danger.
"Your taste is so high, and your mouth is so discerning. Besides the 'Most Beautiful Qiongyao Girl,' who else could catch your eye?" Han Qingyan said, somewhat smugly, but also somewhat annoyed.
I don't know who Han Wen inherited his womanizing ways from, but he keeps finding himself daughters-in-law every few days. This is outrageous!
Fortunately, my family owns many houses and companies, making money quickly and having a substantial fortune.
Otherwise, let alone raising grandchildren, just the daughters-in-law alone would be a bit overwhelming.
After all, these daughters-in-law are either singers or actresses, unlike ordinary people; they have high standards and big appetites.
"Mom, since you guessed it, I'll take that as a yes." Han Wen shouted loudly, "Don't worry, after I redeem her, I'll bring her home to see you."
"My grandson hasn't even been born yet, what's the point of seeing him?" Han Qingyan pretended to be angry and hung up the phone.
