Chapter 86

If you have no strength, no one will spare you a glance even if you beg.

Su Chen stated the ugly truth upfront.

"I have a lot of confidence in my own works."

"But you all know that film and television investment has risks."

"Just like the stock market, you never know what situation you might encounter."

"It's possible the results will be dismal, or even not be given a chance to air or screen, losing everything down to the bottom!"

Xu Zheng immediately stated his position.

"Of course we are willing to bear the risks; you don't need to worry about that."

"For each drama, each of us can only invest a few million; we wouldn't have the chance to invest more even if we wanted to."

"It's just pocket money."

A few million!

Pocket money!

These words were indeed dominant.

But they were also the truth.

Movie bigwigs like Xu Zheng, box office stars,

had already passed the stage of simply taking a salary.

Instead, they took a share of the profits.

A movie would easily sell over a billion.

Wouldn't he take a share of 200 or 300 million?

And that was after taxes.

These few million were truly just his average daily income.

Just a drop in the bucket!

...Begging for flowers...

Hu Ge suddenly smiled mischievously.

"Su Chen, do you have any thoughts about becoming a father?"

"Logically speaking, you're not that young anymore, you're 25."

"If you have a child now, you'll be 26 by the time it's born."

"That's about the age when most men become fathers, right?"

Decades ago, when the economy was backward,

people almost all got married and had children at 20.

In some places, even earlier.

They would get married and have kids before they were even adults.

However, in recent years, the level of economic development had been rapid.

People's cost of living was getting higher and higher.

Many people couldn't afford to get married and didn't have time to find a partner.

The time for having children naturally pushed back significantly.

Especially for stars in the entertainment industry.

Either they were afraid that marriage and children would delay their careers,

or they hadn't played enough and didn't want to be tied down by a wife and children.

Don't look at Hu Ge talking happily.

He was nearly 40 now and had just had a daughter.

However, after becoming a super dad,

Hu Ge's slightly depressed mental state had been healed quite a bit.

Shen Teng also urged: "Have a little cotton-padded jacket; isn't it cute and adorable?"

"This is a process most men have to go through; it's very cool!"

"It's not like you can't find someone to have one with."

Shen Teng's gaze swept over the goddess sisters.

Which one of them wasn't a goddess with a thousand charms?

As long as Su Chen was willing,

he estimated that not one of them would refuse his request to have a baby!

Su Chen smiled bitterly: "I'll consider it when I reach your age."

After the celebration banquet ended,

Yang Mi dragged Su Chen into the room and locked the door.

She squeezed her large water balloons with her arms and stared at him seriously.

"Just now, even Old Hu and the others suggested you have children."

"So have you thought it over? I'm already 31; I'll be 32 after giving birth, almost an older mother."

"We can't drag this out anymore! Now that you've helped me win back Jiaxing, the new company's market value is also soaring."

"Next, there are several more dramas to prepare."

"So I've pushed away my schedule for the next half year."

"Next, we'll rely on the company and these few works to make money; you understand what I mean, right?"

Su Chen nodded heavily.

"Understand! You cleared your schedule, isn't that just to raise the fetus?"

Yang Mi: "Smart! I love talking to smart people."

"After this child is born, you don't need to raise me."

"I probably won't have much time to take care of it either; just leave it to my dad, my mom, and the auntie to watch."

"When you have time, you can go play with her."

"When you don't have time, you don't need to go. Just be busy with your own work."

"It doesn't even matter if you act like the child doesn't exist."

The entertainment industry was very chaotic.

Many stars' children didn't even know who their father was.

There were also stars who gave birth and didn't raise them,

or raised them and then severed ties.

These things were common.

Yang Mi was a woman who was very traditional in her bones.

She wouldn't be like those "feminists" who refused to bear children for men.

On the contrary,

having a child was her obsession.

After wasting so many years with that old acting dog Liu Liu Kaiwei,

with Su Chen here now,

she didn't want to waste a single second!

"Then wouldn't I be reduced to a miserable reproductive tool?"

Su Chen's scalp tingled.

Yang Mi said coldly: "I'm just asking you, do you want to be this reproductive tool or not?"

Su Chen hesitated for half a minute.

Then nodded heavily!

A top-tier actress in the entertainment industry,

Yang Mi, the goddess in the hearts of countless otaku!

Begging frantically to bear a child for him.

Who could resist this temptation?

In any case, Su Chen couldn't resist.

He was also a person with strong traditional concepts.

He had always wanted to live a life with a wife, children, and a warm bed.

A wife was probably unlikely,

because he wouldn't get married.

But having a child, especially a daughter,

that would be too happy!

Many stars liked to keep pets.

When they weren't working, they would play with their pets.

But how could a pet be as fun as a little cotton-padded jacket?

Hu Ge liked keeping cats very much.

He had previously bought a house specifically to keep many, many cats.

Now that he had a daughter, he didn't really pet cats much anymore.

Anyway, he would have to have children sooner or later.

With a reproductive partner as perfect as Yang Mi,

and someone to help raise the baby so it wouldn't delay his work and life,

Su Chen had no reason to refuse!

Just consider it a birthday gift for Yang Mi!
