Shen Hanxing’s happy life did not last long before she received a call from Zheng Youcai.

Zheng Youcai had been so worried for the past few days that his hair had almost turned white. He briefly explained about how the movie’s approval was stuck, “Now that we have finally gotten the approval, but we haven’t gotten the showtime schedule from the cinema. Mrs. Ji, you had just finished your college entrance exam. I shouldn’t have troubled you, but I had no choice. It’s my bad…”

Shen Hanxing’s eyes darkened. It was obvious that someone caused this trouble. She comforted Zheng Youcai, “It’s not your fault. Leave this matter to me. Contact the people from the cinema and set up a meeting.”

Zheng Youcai hurriedly responded. Shen Hanxing knew that Zheng Youcai was anxious, so she did not say anything more. She instantly hung up. Ji Yan who was sitting on the sofa, heard it and looked over. “What’s wrong, my wife? Do you need my help?”

Ji Corporation’s focus was not on the entertainment industry. Shen Hanxing smiled and replied, “It’s just a small matter. There’s no need to trouble you. I can solve it myself.” There was another reason why she did not want to trouble Ji Yan. Recently, Ji Yan had been very busy with work. He had to continue working at home after hours. She could not bear to trouble Ji Yan who was already so busy.

Shen Hanxing seemed confident. Ji Yan nodded and said, “Then, if you need me anytime, just call me.”

Shen Hanxing went upstairs to change into a lady suit. Zheng Youcai acted fast. He arranged their meeting at dinner time. When Shen Hanxing arrived, the people from the cinema were already in the private room. Everyone spoke in an official manner when facing Zheng Youcai.

“Mrs. Ji, we have long heard about you.” As the person in charge of the largest cinema, Wan Fa Cinema, Huang Zongsheng stood up with a smile and shook hands with Shen Hanxing. “Nice to meet you.”

“Manager Huang, you’re being too formal.” Shen Hanxing had a polite smile on her face as she shook hands with each of them. The people sitting here were all veterans. They were skilled in speaking formally. On the surface, they acted merrily as they talked and drank. However, they did not reveal any useful information.

“Manager Huang, let’s not beat around the bush.” Shen Hanxing was too lazy to waste time with them. She went straight to the point and said, “Our movie ‘Missing Girl’ has been approved, but you guys haven’t given us the movie showtime schedulw. You have to give us a reason.”

“Mrs. Ji, you may not know this, but it is not as simple as you think.” Huang Zongsheng chuckled and said tactfully, “I can only say that we have our own considerations. We are arranging for your movie. However, we still can’t tell about the final outcome. There are rules in this industry. We can’t just schedule it for whoever we want, right?”

“Do you mean that we can only continue to wait?” Shen Hanxing said with a hint of coldness. She looked at Huang Zongsheng indifferently. “I thought that a big cinema like Wan Fa would be more efficient. I didn’t expect you to be so slow. This is really an eye-opener.”

Huang Zongsheng’s expression did not change much after being ridiculed by Shen Hanxing. He drank the wine in his gla.s.s and said with a smile, “Mrs. Ji, you don’t know anything about this, do you? You see… Everyone here is my colleague. If you don’t believe me, you can ask others.”

Wan Fa Cinema was the leader of the cinemas. If they didn’t give a schedule, the other cinemas wouldn’t dare to. Therefore, as soon as Huang Zongsheng finished speaking, the others followed, “That’s right, Mrs. Ji. It’s not that we don’t want to give you face, but we have rules to follow. There’s nothing we can do about it.”

“That’s right. You don’t have to be in a hurry. We’ll rush it for you. Rest a.s.sured that your movie will be released as soon as possible. Please understand that we all work for the company, so we can’t mess around, right?”

Every word they said sounded nice. Nevertheless, it didn’t solve any problems. To put it bluntly, they enjoyed all the benefits, but they just wouldn’t do it.

“Hey, you shouldn’t do this, right?” Zheng Youcai was a straightforward person. He didn’t know how to beat around the bush. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have failed to make a movie for so many years. Now that he heard the perfunctory words of Huang Zongsheng and the others, his bad temper flared up. He said, “You’ve received all the money. Now you’re telling us to do things according to the rules. What, are you saying that the money is not enough?”
