When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First - Chapter 389

389 Kou Zhiyuan And Zachary’s Alliance
Luo Feng would never have dreamed that while his actions would stabilize the status of the show and establish the tone of the show, at the same time, he would scare the new director away.

The effect in the early stages was ridiculously good. If the standard of the later stages were to deteriorate, the audience would be sniped into a sieve!

Moreover, the entertainment industry was like a wall that leaked wind everywhere. As people walked on the wall, countless pairs of eyes were watching them. If there was a slight mistake, they could dig out all the materials in every corner.

If he wasn’t careful, his career might be ruined.

Not to mention that “Idol Cultivation” had so many sponsors. How could a small-time director afford to offend them? He might as well admit defeat and not accept it.

“Boss, I just finished watching the new episode. The effect is very good. It’s not a problem for you to continue guiding it!” Yang Tianzhen tried to please him.

He kept reflecting on his previous ignorance.

It was indeed as Benson had said, worrying about something completely unnecessary.

He actually doubted his boss’s decision and ability?! This really shouldn’t have happened. He would never do it again!

Luo Feng was unwilling. “No, it’s too tiring after one episode. Moreover, I still have two companies to take care of.”

If his career expanded, his dream of being a freeloader would become further and further away. Wouldn’t that go against his original intention?! No! Luo Feng thought that he had to let everything return to its original path.

“But you’re better than a professional director. Most likely, no one will dare to take on the job,” Yang Tianzhen said.

There’s even a problem if I did it too well?! This was something Luo Feng had not considered.

He suddenly had a brilliant solution in his mind and said, “Is this director you found someone who is relatively new in the industry?”

“Boss, how did you know?” Yang Tianzhen was shocked. This Luo Feng knew how to read fortunes. “Actually, he’s already directed a few short films. He’s considered pretty solid. Unfortunately, his luck has never been good.”

It was similar to what Luo Feng had guessed.

Only a new director was willing to take on a job halfway. A director with a little fame and a little work would definitely not look down on such a job.

Luo Feng said, “Ask him if he’s willing to come over and be an assistant director. I can teach him step by step. The salary will be given according to Zachary’s standards.”

Yang Tianzhen was tempted by his words. “Alright, I’ll ask immediately… Actually, he’ll definitely agree without asking!”

Luo Feng did not even hear a call. He heard the sound of Yang Tianzhen typing on the keyboard. He paused for a moment before ringing twice.

Yang Tianzhen immediately replied, “He agreed and asked if he should go over now.”

“Anytime is fine. Just bring some daily necessities. There’s everything here.” Luo Feng smiled.

Just based on the speed of his reply, Yang Tianzhen did not even give a reason. The other party definitely agreed immediately.

Luo Feng calculated that he would be able to let go of “Idol Cultivation” after the third episode was broadcast. He just had to wait for the final harvest!

He relaxed and leaned on the table, humming an unknown tune.

Luo Feng thought that everything was ready, one step closer to his goal of freeloading.

…

At the Vienna Hotel, the waiters were pushing a food cart towards the private room. There was very exquisite food on it. On a plain white porcelain plate, the word “expensive” protruded!

This was the most expensive table of orders this year. The manager had specially instructed them to treat the guests well, so there were two waiters standing at the door of the private room.

When the dishes were delivered to the door, the two waiters pushed each other. They didn’t want to be the first to push the door open and enter.

The waitress who delivered the food was puzzled and stopped them. “Keep your voice down. Don’t let the customers hear you. Hurry up and send it in.”

“The faces of the two guests inside are so ugly. I don’t even dare to go in. I feel like a murder is going to happen. How terrifying. Why don’t you go in first?” The two waiters pretended to be frightened and refused to be the first to open the door.

Seeing this, the waitress who delivered the vegetables could not help but laugh in her heart. She thought to herself that in such a peaceful and prosperous world, how could there be such a fierce person? The other two were most likely trying to slack off again.

With the intention of setting an example, she knocked lightly on the door and said in a loud voice, “Hello, we’re here to serve the dishes.”

The moment she pushed open the door, the waitress who delivered the food shivered.

This private room was too cold, as cold as a freezer.
She pretended to be calm and took out all her professionalism. She said gently, “I’ll turn up the temperature for you.”

The two people sitting at the table stared at each other and ignored her.

The waiter who delivered the dishes regretted it. She carefully pushed the food cart to the table and served the dishes gently and quickly, afraid that she would alarm the two masters who looked like they were not to be trifled with.

More than 10 dishes were arranged one after another. It seemed to last for a century.

The smile on the waitress’ face was about to freeze, but she still maintained her professionalism. “The dishes have been served. Please enjoy.”

“Go.” Kou Zhiyuan finally spoke, his words filled with disdain.

The waitress trembled in fear and closed the door of the private room as if she was running for his life. This time, she even forgot to open the door lightly. It was obvious that she was frightened.

The person sitting opposite Kou Zhiyuan was Zachary, who had been fired.

His face was filled with displeasure. He picked up his chopsticks and slammed them on the table, as if this sound was the real manifestation of his unhappiness. Then, he picked up half a fish angrily and placed it on the plate without eating.

Kou Zhiyuan suppressed his emotions and said as a host, “Director Zachary has good taste. You could tell at a glance that the signature dish here is steamed fish. It tastes really good.”

Zachary snorted. “I don’t eat fish. I’m allergic.”

Kou Zhiyuan tightened his grip on his chopsticks. He thought to himself, “You don’t want to eat the fish yet you took half of it. You’re purely disgusting!”

However, he endured it and smiled. “Then try the other dishes. This sea cucumber is not bad.”

Hearing him introduce the dishes, Zachary threw his chopsticks away and stopped eating.

He was not here to freeload.

Not long ago, Kou Zhiyuan had taken the initiative to contact him and said that he wanted to join forces to mess with Luo Feng. Although Zachary had some ideas, because he was the one at fault, not only could he not cause trouble for Luo Feng, but he also had to help cover up.

Kou Zhiyuan’s cooperation invitation was like sending charcoal in the snow. Zachary had very high expectations of him.

He still remembered Kou Zhiyuan confidently telling him many plans, such as “If you want to destroy it, you have to make it successful first”, “You have to fall heavily when you climb high”, and “the higher you fly, the more miserable you fall”.

The second episode of Idol Cultivation was as successful as how badly they wanted it to fail.

He had helped his nemesis in the opposite direction and brought a lot of popularity.

The more Zachary thought about how smooth things had been for Luo Feng, the angrier he became. He was so angry that he was unhappy to see Kou Zhiyuan.

Kou Zhiyuan was also on the verge of collapse.

Zachary would retort whenever he said something. A good ally couldn’t even say a normal sentence. How could they talk about the follow-up?

Kou Zhiyuan simply fell silent and looked at Zachary again. “I know what you’re angry about, Director Zachary. I’m equally angry.”

“I’m angry that the Goddess of Luck is on Luo Feng’s side every time. If we continue to cause trouble like this, Luo Feng will only get closer and closer to success!”
