Half an hour later.
Director Zheng was holding the edited script in anguish, maintaining the last of his bottom line. “No, it can’t be changed anymore…”

He initially planned to make the scene of the fantastical scene seem artistic and full of an ambiguous romance. Now, it was completely bland.
The only element that was retained, was the demoness that was trying to seduce the Immortal Venerable. However, the original plot of the Immortal Venerable getting immersed, was changed into the Immortal Venerable pus.h.i.+ng the demoness away and succeeding in transcending the tribulation.
Xiang Feng smacked his lips and said, “This is still okay.”
The brothers of the Xiang family were still frowning and expressing their dissatisfaction. seemingly extremely troubled.
However, when they saw the pitiful and helpless gaze in their sister’s eyes, their hearts turned soft.
‘Forget it, this is Xiang Yi’s career. We should support it.’
Hence, the four of them started studying the script with their heads pressed together. After ensuring that there were no intimate scenes or over-the-top lines, they were finally relieved.

Director Zheng heaved a long sigh of relief and said, “You guys go ahead and chat while I go take a walk around the courtyard.”

The netizens watching the livestream were laughing hysterically.
–[Hahahaha the humble Director Zheng is fleeing]
–The person who said he would never change his script, actually changed it today!]
1
–[Brothers and Uncle, you guys spoil Xiang Yi rotten. I’m full of envy! The country owes me too much!]
…
There were also netizens who felt that the act of changing the script was “playing with privilege”.
—— [Since she has already decided to act, why bother about these?]
—— [Indeed, money makes the world go round. Hah, the poor screenwriter will have to burn the midnight oil changing the script]
—— [Vase Fairy is really pretending to be nice after doing such a horrible thing. Actors ought to act out whatever scenes their role requires. She has no work ethic at all!!]
…
There were also people who felt that acting was just a profession and they just need to fulfill their obligations.
—— [What a joke. For example, when your boss makes you do something that you don’t want to, you can choose to succ.u.mb or jump s.h.i.+p. We’re already living in the modern era. Why do you have to bind actors with morals and ethics!?!]
…
The two of them were arguing incessantly.
They stopped only when Xiang Feng spoke up and made everyone shut up.
“How about I invest some money in Director Zheng’s film? Lest the team makes things hard for Xiang Yi…” He fiddled with his phone for a while before slapping his thigh and asking, “d.a.m.n it,I’m the biggest shareholder of this drama?”

“…”
With Xiang Feng’s current a.s.sets, his manager and trusted family members were usually the ones who handled his investments. He was quite a careless person who didn’t quite understand the details of investments.
Xiang Feng stayed silent for a moment before exclaiming, “Invest more money so that Xiang Yi can join the crew and add financial value to them!”
Xiang Yi was speechless.
“No need for that. I have less than ten lines in total.”
“How can that be!?! Our little baby is going to act in a drama for the first time. We can’t let her suffer!” Xiang Feng looked around and tried to seek affirmation. “Right?”

Xiang Yi thought her brothers would persuade her uncle but to her surprise…
Xiang Yu said, “That makes sense. I want to invest money too!”
Xiang Yi, “Isn’t it just money? I have plenty!”

Xiang Li said, “Xiang Yi, go ahead and film with a peace of mind. I have enough money to invest.”
Xiang Chen’s words were short and concise.
“I’ll invest.”
Xiang Yi was speechless.

‘What’s going on? Am I the only clear-headed person in this family?’
Director Zheng, who was holding his phone and taking photos of the plants in the courtyard, had no idea that he had just received five investments.
