Chapter 849 Never Treated Me As an Outsider

Tan Mo knew what Wei Keli was trying to say.
Tan Mo gave a professional fake smile and said, “Yes, the actors are all the original cast members. All the actors and roles have been finalized. I have also written the script.”
In fact, of course, she had not finished writing
it.
But Wei Keli and Yuan Keqing didn’t know.
She didn’t need to tell them the truth.
Tan Mo really admired Wei Keli and Yuan Keqing.
He didn’t know whether they were thick-skinned or insensitive.
They were reprimanded like dogs by the two elders. It was not easy to finally obtain the two elders’ consent and stayed in Old Mansion instead of being chased out.
They should buck up and behave.
Now, they were still in danger of being chased out of Old Mansion at any time but they actually dared to set their sights on the second season of Broken Continent impatiently.
Previously, Yuan Keqing and Xu Mingjing had gone to the Tan family and mentioned this matter. However, they had been sternly rejected by her family.
They even chased Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing away in a very unfriendly way.
But Yuan Keqing still did not give up and still set their sights on the second season of Broken Continent.
Yuan Keqing was also very persistent. If she had made use of this persistence on the right path, she would not have disgusted others. Besides this, she had to think of shortcuts to get the job, and disgusting others even more.
However, Yuan Keqing probably did not want to work hard and take the right path. She only wanted to take a shortcut. If she failed to take a shortcut, she would become even more obsessed with succeeding through shortcuts.
It was because she had embarked on the path of shortcut and had yet to reach the end.
She would not go back and work hard on the right path as she was too lazy to start all over again. It was a harder and longer path for her.
It was better to keep working on the shortcut.
“When Broken Continent became popular, my aunt and Yuan Keqing had come to our house and proposed to arrange a role for Yuan Keqing in the second season. They also had said that they would invest in it,” Tan Mo smiled and said. “But to be honest, when the first season was extremely difficult, no one thought highly of Broken Continent, and no one invested in it. As they didn’t think highly of it, they didn’t want to take the risk.
“In the end, Kefeng Films read the script and had a meeting. After various evaluations, they decided to buy it and broadcast it. They also invested according to their evaluation. Kefeng Films was the biggest investor. My family also invested a little. But even so, they couldn’t film it lavishly. My eldest brother could only look for actors who weren’t highly paid but with good acting skills. “As for the actors, after reading the script, they all liked it very much and thought highly of it. They felt that they could indeed take a gamble and use this drama to take their careers to the next level. Some actors even lowered their remunerations because they knew the difficulties of the production crew,” said Tan Mo. “Of course, I can’t tell you who they are. This matter is too sensitive. If word gets out to other films and television companies, they will use this matter to negotiate with the actors and ask them to lower their remunerations. This will badly affect the actors and it will also affect their market price.
“We are all family members, I shouldn’t have hidden it, but…” Tan Mozhi said, “I don’t trust Yuan Keqing. So I won’t say it in front of her. As for the actors who lowered their remunerations, the two elders, Dad and Mom all know who they are.”
Tan Mo didn’t hide anything and told everyone very straightforwardly. The two elders, Wei Mingwen, and Xiao Menghan were all family members. She trusted them, so it didn’t matter how much she revealed to them. As for the others, it wasn’t that she didn’t trust them. It was just that Yuan Keqing was there as well, so she couldn’t say anything.
If they felt that they were being treated differently, they should go and see Yuan Keqing. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to tell them.
Everyone was silent.
At this moment, Wei Keren was feeling smug and said smugly, “I know it too. Aunt had told me a long time ago. Aunt has never treated me as an outsider.”
Everyone was lost for words.
Even Wei Keren’s parents, Wei Zhigong and Mu Xinzhu were speechless at their son.
But what could they do?
He was their son. Even if they despised him, they couldn’t say it out loud.
Besides, other than being a little shameless, their son was pretty good at all other aspects.
Moreover, even if he was shameless, he was shameless in the right place.
He wasn’t like Wei Keli, who was shameless and stupid. That was really hopeless.
Although Wei Keren was shameless, he could make Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo happy.
Moreover, he was indeed quite capable in his work, and he had become more and more important to Wei Zhiqian.
With such a son, what was wrong being shameless?
Of course, they felt that Wei Keren was important to Wei Zhiqian because of his capability in his work. It definitely wasn’t because Wei Keren had been flattering Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo.
“The success of the first season was because the actors were not afraid of hard work and they worked very hard when filming. If the results were not good, they would film over and over again. They would follow the crew through the mountains and rivers, and they could persevere under any difficult circumstances. It was also because my eldest brother saved from the actors’ remunerations and invested the fund into the production. He sourced and combined all the funds and owed a lot of people favors, including the fees for the special effects. It was at a low price based on favors.
“Otherwise, just the special effect scenes for the first season of Broken Continent, those funds wouldn’t even be enough for the special effects,” Tan Mo smiled and said. “At such a difficult time, when others weren’t optimistic about Broken Continent, and you felt that Broken Continent wouldn’t be popular, nor would it promote you and bring you any benefits, you didn’t ask for a role. And your family didn’t say anything about investing either.
“Of course, regarding investment, even though your family has never returned the money they received from the Tan family in the past. I also don’t think that you should invest in Broken Continent at that time. There’s no need to ask. In the past, our family helped your family, and we didn’t ask for anything in return. So we didn’t ask you to help us when our family needed it. However, similarly, we’ve helped you before, but we’ve never owed you anything.
“There’s no reason that you want to participate in the show, and we have to agree to it. You saw that the first season of Broken Continent had made a profit, and in the second season, your family wanted to take a share of the profits and make a sure-win deal. At this moment, you remembered that we’re relatives and came forward to invest. And when you saw that the first season of Broken Continent was popular and the second season was highly anticipated, you want to play a role to become famous.
“There’s a saying that goes ‘you’re not around during the downtime, who are you when the time is good?” Tan Mo smiled and said, “A fan in winter and a cotton jacket in summer are all superfluous things.
“Last time, our family had rejected you explicitly. My brother has never intended to let you participate,” said Tan Mo. “You can’t endure hardship, and you love taking shortcuts. We can’t afford to have you act as the director’s cousin.”
“I can endure hardship,” said Yuan Keqing.
“Oh?” Tan Mo said, “Then why must you act in our film?”
