Hence, relying on the fact that he had more money, Bai Chao began to strive for excellence. This strive for excellence accidentally caused him to overspend the budget, resulting in the remaining money being insufficient.
There was not much money left in the account now. In addition, the last five million yuan was still with Ji Jun. When they signed the contract, this sum of money was already agreed to be used for marketing and publicity after the television drama was released.
Hence, he did not dare to touch this sum of money, mainly because he could not. Bai Chao could only think of a way to maximize the use with the remaining money.
However, after counting with 10 fingers, he could not even pass the first stage of finding the editing team, let alone find someone to do sound effects, soundtrack, and other projects. This was not a small sum of money.
Bai Chao did not want to complain to Yu Han at first, but as he spoke, he aroused his true feelings and almost cried.
Indeed, directors were not a job for humans, but he liked this profession.
Bai Chao wanted Yu Han to pull some strings and look for Ji Jun to see if he could add another investment. After all, Ji Jun would be much easier to talk to if Yu Han took action.
However, he was afraid that Ji Jun would despise her for not being able to do such a small thing well and despise him for spending more money. That would cut off his path to look for Ji Jun, the big investor, to continue spending money on his projects.
Hence, Bai Chao did not dare to say it out loud. He was in a dilemma. Even Yu Han could guess his worries and hesitation over the phone.
Seeing that Bai Chao was now away from their studio, Yu Han could only comfort him. “It’s fine. It’s not rare for the director to overspend his budget during filming.”
She thought for a moment and said, “Give me time. 1’11 see how to deal with this matter. I’ll reply to you later.”
Yu Han hung up on Bai Chao and called Ji Jun.
In the past week, Ji Jun would still send her photos of the puppies and their mother every day. The puppies basically grew up lightning fast. In just a week, they grew from meatballs to chubby little cuties.
Yu Han had a special liking for one of them, a small dog that was completely white but had a black mark on its forehead. She really wanted to reserve it.
However, Yu Han was a little hesitant. Ever since she seemed to have discovered Ji Jun’s intentions, although she told herself that as long as this intention was not exposed, she did not need to care too much, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
Hence, for a moment, she did not know how to deal with her relationship with Ji Jun. There seemed to be no way to stay away from him. Not to mention the benefits between the two of them, they still had to go on variety shows together in the future.
However, she felt that it was not appropriate to be too close to Ji Jun.
This relationship made Yu Han feel a little troubled.
Hence, her reply to Ji Jun’s messages about the puppies every day was not as enthusiastic as the first time.
Of course, Ji Jun noticed this, but he was fooled by Yu Han when she said that she was busy preparing for the exam. Hence, even though he felt that something was wrong, he did not say anything. He thought that he should not affect Yu Han’s emotions at this time.
Hence, Ji Jun pretended not to notice. As usual, he sent her photos of the puppies every day. Occasionally, he would send her some interesting jokes he had seen online, euphemistically saying that he wanted Yu Han to relax occasionally during her busy study missions.
At this moment, he suddenly received a call from Yu Han. Ji Jun was very surprised and thought that something had happened. After all, Yu Han rarely took the initiative to contact him.
On the phone, Yu Han kept it short and told him about Bai Chao’s predicament.
Ji Jun frowned when he heard that. He thought to himself, Why didn’t Bai Chao took for him, the biggest investor, directiy instead of Yu Han, when it came to the production team’s funds?
It was not strange after he came back to his senses. After all, he had already heard from Lin Zi that Bai Chao had already become a director contracted by Yu Han’s studio. It was normal for him to report something to Yu Han, the boss.
Moreover, Yu Han was the producer of “Midsummer’s Time”, although strictly speaking, it was only in name. After all, she did not interfere much in the production team’s matters.
However, even if it was in name, she was still a producer. Hence, it was reasonable for Yu Han to communicate about the funds.
Ji Jun suppressed the complaints in his heart. He did not express his thoughts on Bai Chao overspending the budget. Just as Yu Han had said, this was not rare in the industry, but there were various different methods of handling it.
Ji Jun asked Yu Han, “What do you think about this matter?”
