Chapter 116 I Want Billion

Probably Mr. Hu would never have imagined that one day the historical figure he talked about would actually appear in front of him.

And I was still listening to him talk about history.

He could not have imagined that the person from "a thousand years ago" he mentioned, the protagonist of today's story, was Ji Chenxing.

After that, the class continued as normal. When it came to history, Teacher Hu was very professional and his lectures were very interesting.

Even though Ji Chenxing already knew some historical facts very clearly, she didn't mind relearning the "modern" version of history.

Ji Chenxing was studying hard here, and on the other side, Ji Huaiyu was releasing news targeting Feng Shi according to Ji Chenxing's plan.

Lu Yuzhou was waiting for this news from Ji Huaiyu. He was running an artist company and his control over the internet trolls, public relations, and public opinion was much stronger than Ji Huaiyu's.

The news about Ji Huaiyu had just been released, but Lu Yuzhou secretly magnified it several times.

These news did not reach the public, but were accurately delivered to the ears of Liu Fengshi and Shen Fuxian.

After waiting for the matter to ferment for a few days, Lu Yuzhou quietly had someone leak the news to Liu Fengshi and Shen Fuxian, saying that a female entrepreneur from Hong Kong Island had taken a fancy to Fengshi Company and seemed to have the intention to acquire it.

At the same time, the Shen family.

It was seven o'clock in the morning, when workers just started to go to work. Shen Yufei came down from upstairs early, contrary to her usual practice, and stopped Shen Fuxian who was about to supervise the workers at work.

"Dad, if you don't give me money today, don't even think about leaving this house."

Shen Yufei opened her arms and stood in front of the entrance.

The Shen family never told Shen Yufei that she was an adopted daughter. All the facts Shen Yufei knew were heard from others.

So even if she knew everything, when she was in the Shen family, she still had to play the role of the eldest lady who didn't know the truth.

"What money? My dear daughter, what money do you want?" Shen Fuxian glanced at his watch. "I have deposited all your pocket money into your card. If the amount exceeds the limit, you should learn to save it yourself."

"But I can't save enough!" Shen Yufei lowered her head, "Dad, do you know that the Ji family is willing to give Lu Yuzhou 1 billion just to let Lu Yuzhou package Ji Chenxing into a movie queen."

Shen Fuxian was in a hurry to go to the company and didn't want to pay attention to Shen Yufei. He just said a few perfunctorily "OK, OK", and then asked Shen Yufei, "What does it have to do with you if he pays 1 billion? You can't also want to pay 1 billion?"

"Of course not!" Shen Yufei stood up and retorted, "So Dad, I want to ask you for this number."

Shen Yufei extended two fingers to Shen Fuxian.

"Two hundred thousand?" Shen Fuxian asked tentatively.

"No." Shen Yufei shook her head.

"That's two million?" Shen Fuxian asked again.

"It's still wrong." Shen Yufei sighed, and simply stopped letting Shen Fuxian guess and gave the answer directly.

"Dad, can't you give me 2 billion so that I can have some face in front of Brother Yuzhou?"

Shen Fuxian was so angry that his teeth ached. "What kind of face do you have that is so valuable that it costs 2 billion to have it?"

Shen Yufei said "Aiya" and pulled Shen Fuxian to sit on the sofa. "Dad, think about it, I have spent 2 billion now, but I can get a return on this 2 billion! When I become a first-line female star, I can get tens of millions of dollars for any movie I shoot, and my annual income can be over 1 billion. Dad, your return on investment is ridiculously high!"

Shen Yufei brought out the exact words that Lu's senior management had said to her.

"It's ridiculously high, isn't it?" Shen Fuxian took out his phone and pointed at the screen, turning the page and saying, "Look what this is?"

"What?" Ji Xueqing took a look. Shen Fuxian's phone background was ordinary. Apart from a few ordinary apps, she didn't see anything else.

"Anti-fraud app!" Shen Fuxian put away his phone in a frustrated manner, "Lu Yuzhou is a very vicious guy. In the future, you should avoid contacting him for business or money-related matters."

Shen Fuxian's advice did not work on Shen Yufei. Shen Yufei held Shen Fuxian's arm and refused to let him go. "Dad, how can this be a lie? The Ji family dared to sign this contract, so why can't our family? There must be benefits here that we can't see."

Shen Fuxian frowned slightly, "Did the Ji family really sign a contract with Lu Yuzhou? Is it possible that they lied to you?"

Shen Yufei quickly retorted, "How could it be, how could Brother Yuzhou lie to me? And the contract was really signed, but because the Ji family has not yet paid the money, the contract has not yet taken effect.

"I've been begging Brother Yuzhou to give me a chance, so he has been dragging it on until now for my sake. Dad, please, I don't want him to be disappointed in me."

No matter how hard Shen Yufei begged, Shen Fuxian remained unmoved.

"Impossible." Shen Fuxian said, "Two billion is not a small amount. The Ji family may not care about two billion, but our Shen family cannot.

"Ji Huaiyu always dotes on his children too much, so he gave Ji Chenxing 1 billion to let her film without considering the consequences. To be honest, it's not that easy to be a movie queen..."

What Shen Fuxian said was not without reason, but Shen Yufei was not happy, "But Dad, now apart from Lu Yuzhou's company, I really don't know where to go. I don't want to go to the remaining unknown small companies.

"And Dad, think about it, if I spend more time with Lu Yuzhou after signing the contract and Lu Yuzhou falls in love with me, then won't we be able to get back the money we gave him?"

Shen Fuxian seemed moved for a moment, but quickly calmed down.

"What you said doesn't make any sense, so you should wait until Lu Yuzhou confesses his feelings to you before telling me.

"Also, I told you early on that it would be better for you to sign with your uncle's company instead of Lu Yuzhou's. At least your uncle won't lie to you."

Shen Yufei stuck out her tongue.

Everyone knows that Liu Fengshi signed these female stars just to play with women. She would not be so stupid as to walk into the tiger's mouth and sign Liu Fengshi's contract.

What's more, Shen Yufei shook Shen Fuxian's arm, "Dad, have you forgotten? Uncle will go to court soon. What's the point even if I sign his company?"

Shen Fuxian laughed, "My dear daughter, you may not know that your uncle's company is about to be acquired by a wealthy man from Hong Kong Island.

"It is said that this rich man is acquainted with Lu Yuzhou. And he has some feud with the Ji family. After the Hong Kong Islanders acquire Fengshi, you will sign a contract with Fengshi and enter the entertainment industry. You will use your strength to snatch the role of the heroine from Ji Chenxing. With the support of Ji Huaiyu's mortal enemy, you will definitely not let the Ji family have an easy time.

"By then, won't you have your revenge?"

Although it was the first time that Shen Yufei heard that the Ji family had offended people from Hong Kong Island, she would not easily doubt what Shen Fuxian said.

"Well, Dad, I'll sign a contract with New Wind first! Then I'll become a movie queen before Ji Chenxing."

Shen Yufei said, as if she had seen a bright future.

Seeing Shen Yufei so motivated, Shen Fuxian nodded, "No rush, we can wait for the acquisition... But it will be soon, it is said that the acquisition negotiation will be tomorrow."
