"No."

Qin Yumo smiled and shook her head: "We must fight. For me, this is not just acting; it is also the motivation for my upward struggle."

"Indeed."

Zhu Suosuo also smiled and said: "Although I am still on a short-term contract, regardless, I now have my own work. Since Sister Gu Xiaojun said we should practice boxing, we must master it and do it well."

"As expected, you two are born to be actors."

Xiao Meng smiled and praised them,

then asked with some confusion: "However, several coaches we worked with said they paid to watch your short dramas yesterday, but just now when they refreshed, they couldn't find them anymore. We don't know what's going on."

"This..."

Zhu Suosuo and Qin Yumo exchanged a glance, knowing the root of the problem,

but this issue could only be resolved by Gu Xiaojun or Qin Feng for now,

so the two helplessly shook their heads: "Something must have gone wrong, but it should be viewable again very soon, Sister Xiao Meng."

"That's good."

Xiao Meng nodded upon hearing this: "When you told me the first day exceeded fifteen million, I was shocked. I really didn't expect short dramas to have such strong spending power."

"Yes, we didn't expect it either."

Zhu Suosuo smiled and agreed, then said: "So, the potential of short dramas is huge, and Suosuo and I might really, as Sister Gu Xiaojun said, move from short drama platforms to the big screen, hahaha."

"Definitely."

Qin Yumo nodded,

then pulled Zhu Suosuo up: "Come on, Suosuo, let's keep practicing!"

"Let's go!"

Zhu Suosuo nodded in agreement, her gaze instantly turning cold, and under Xiao Meng's command, she suddenly threw a jab forward!

Miaqu Video headquarters,

the three co-founders of Miaqu Video all wore expressions of surprise and joy,

looking with extreme respect at Andy and Qin Feng sitting opposite them.

At this moment,

Miaqu Video was facing a huge crisis: it urgently needed to expand its layout to seize market share, yet it could find no investors and had no reserve funds,

and the arrival of these two angel investors, Andy and Qin Feng,

was undoubtedly a timely help in a time of need.

Although they did not know why Andy and Qin Feng had come directly without prior contact,

nevertheless,

these three partners would definitely do everything possible to keep the gods of wealth who had come to their door.

After specially brewing two pots of good tea for Andy and Qin Feng,

the three partners immediately turned on the projector,

displayed the PPT they had prepared long ago, and further exaggerated Miaqu Video's development potential, hoping only to catch Andy and Qin Feng's attention.

However,

what made the partners feel deeply disappointed was,

that Andy and Qin Feng did not seem very interested in everything they said,

and Andy even directly pointed out several key mistakes in their presentation, making them somewhat embarrassed.

The atmosphere on the scene was suddenly too quiet,

with only the sound of Qin Feng calmly drinking tea,

and after Qin Feng took two sips of tea, he also frowned slightly, looking at Andy and saying: "Indeed, it is still a startup company. They are frugal everywhere; the quality of this tea doesn't even count as medium..."

"This..."

the three partners were instantly dumbfounded,

thought for a moment,

and one of the more shrewd partners immediately said: "Mr. Qin, I am truly sorry. I forgot I have two cans of high-grade green tea hidden in my office. I will go get them right away..."

"No need."

Qin Feng shook his head slightly: "No need to deliberately buy more. Startups are like this at the beginning, but once they get the angel round, they start living in luxury..."

"Yes."

Andy glanced at Qin Feng, then smiled and agreed: "If we follow what everyone just said, sixty million for thirty percent of our original shares, then I'm afraid one million of that would be used to buy tea, wouldn't it?"

"This..."

the three exchanged a glance,

and then the one with the final say gritted his teeth and said: "Sixty-five million, Mr. An, Mr. Qin, sixty-five million for forty percent of the original equity, but after we go public, we need to sign a five-year equity holding agreement."

"You are overthinking it; your company will not go public."

Upon hearing this, Andy immediately stood up and was about to leave,

but Qin Feng reached out and held Andy back, then advised: "Mr. An, look again. Give the young ones a chance."

"Yes, yes, yes."

the three partners nodded repeatedly,

then immediately said: "Mr. An, Mr. Qin, although we are only responsible for technology, the talent we hired for operations and content is also top-tier in the industry. For example, our Content Director Zhao Lei was poached from Youhu Video at a high price."

"And after Director Zhao arrived, he directly brought us a short drama project called 'The War God Returns'. Just on our Miaqu Video platform, the recharge amount in the first 24 hours reached over seven million, over seven million!"

"If, I mean if, if our platform can achieve high-quality cooperation with short drama suppliers, we will all have a very good future!"

"So, President An, just as President Qin said a moment ago, please give the young a chance!"

"Very well."

Andy responded indifferently,

then suddenly unleashed his full aura,

looking at the three with slightly cold eyes: "In the current short-video market, Douyin dominates alone, Manke struggles desperately, and others like Qingguo and Haowan have already completely perished."

"If you build a short-video platform benchmarking Douyin and Manke, you are destined not to last long; I will not invest a single cent!"

"But as you yourselves said, the short-drama business you are currently developing holds certain appeal for the market, so that is what I value."

"Here is my offer: I will put up eighty million for one hundred percent of your equity. You three will cede control and focus on platform construction and data maintenance. I can sign long-term employment contracts with you and others to guarantee your salaries and remuneration!"

"This..."

The three partners exchanged glances and shook their heads in unison to refuse,

for eighty million for one hundred percent of the equity differed far too greatly from their expectations.

Yet Andy, now rejected, merely let out a cold sneer,

leaned his body forward slightly,

and looked at the three, speaking coldly: "Before coming here, I investigated your situation, so my offer is both practical and reasonable. Therefore, I hope you will consider it carefully once more!"

After Andy finished speaking, his momentum surged fully,

and a pressure of 'who else but me' made the three partners' scalps tingle with dread and sent chills down their spines.

Qin Feng, however, was not affected in the slightest, sitting aside and quietly watching the show!
