After the divorce, I started to transfer

On the way back, Luna talked a lot about Rebecca, mainly trying to persuade Chen Feng to help Rebecca realize her musical dream.

Chen Feng had a fairly good impression of Rebecca, not simply because she was beautiful, but because of her strong and free-spirited personality.

In addition, there's also a bit of a "love me, love my dog" mentality involved. After all, Luna and Rebecca are best friends, and Rebecca used to take good care of Luna. Now that Luna is his woman, and Chen Feng has a pretty good impression of Rebecca, he's willing to help her out if he can.

"You've heard Rebecca's songs too. You think they're good, so I think if you could help her, it would be a good investment for you. Of course, if you're not sure, you can go see her live performance tonight; you'll be amazed." In the car, Luna kept trying to persuade Chen Feng to invest in Rebecca.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng asked, "How much money do you think is appropriate for me to invest in her?"

After thinking for a moment, Luna said, "She talked to me and said that if it's just recording and production for an album, $10 would be enough at most. But if she wants to shoot a music video, plus post-production promotion and distribution, it will cost at least $30 or even more. The most important thing is to have a music agent to help her. If she can find a suitable agent, with their connections and channels, plus your money, it will be hard for her not to become famous."

Chen Feng didn't entirely agree with her words. As a singer, to truly become famous and a star, one must rely on their own work. Without one or two breakout hits, how can one be considered a star?

In Chen Feng's view, Rebecca has been working hard in Los Angeles for more than four years without realizing her musical dream, especially without a single song that has become a hit. This is related to her own musical talent, or rather, her songwriting talent. It can only be said that the quality of her compositions is not very high.

The single and music video she released online only garnered a peak of around a million views, and that was after two or three years of accumulation. Lack of funds for promotion might be one reason. But in Chen Feng's view, the main reason was the relatively ordinary quality of her songs. If she weren't so attractive, she probably wouldn't have achieved such high viewership.

However, Chen Feng couldn't say these things directly to Luna right now. After hearing her explanation, he simply nodded slightly and said, "Alright then. After we go see her live performance tonight, if it's really good, I'll consider investing in her. But, you know, I can't just give her money directly. After all, she's just your friend, not mine. If I'm going to invest in her, it has to be business. I'll have my lawyer sign a contract with her, a kind of investment contract. The terms are simple: I'll invest in promoting her, and if she becomes famous, she'll have to return my investment with interest."

Luna immediately asked, "What if she doesn't become famous in the future, or isn't famous enough, and doesn't have enough money to pay you back?"

Chen Feng shrugged and said, "Then consider this my investment a failure. I won't force her to repay the money. Of course, if she makes money but doesn't repay me, I can't agree to that either. Actually, I signed this contract mainly because of you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have invested in her, and with such lenient terms."

Upon hearing this, Luna hugged Chen Feng and kissed him, saying with a touch of emotion, "Thank you, darling. I know there's a certain risk in letting you invest in Rebecca. But she's my good friend, and she's helped me a lot. And I'm very confident that she'll become famous and make a lot of money in the future. So your current investment will definitely be repaid to you with interest in the future. Even if she can't repay it, I will help her repay it."

Chen Feng smiled and shook his head, saying nothing more.

He also believes that Rebecca, this Mexican beauty, will become famous in the future, but not so much because of her songs, but because of her beauty and personality.

Just like Luna said, if she could find a reliable agent with connections and influence, and with Chen Feng, her financial backer, heavily promoting her, there's no reason she wouldn't become famous. That's how those talent agencies operate. As long as you have enough exposure, even if you act in trashy dramas and sing trashy songs, you can still become famous, at least you'll be recognized by the public. Over time, with continuous hype, you'll become a star even if you weren't one.

Of course, Chen Feng's principled investment in Rebecca is limited to a maximum of $100 million. He won't invest that much money all at once, but rather in installments, according to her needs. If she truly has a chance of becoming famous, Chen Feng wouldn't mind investing more money in her.

Chen Feng owns his own film and television company in China and already has relevant experience in this field. For example, Zhang Yuxi, Zhang Jingwen, and Yang Wenqi are all his clients; he has invested money and resources in them to a certain extent.

This is the first time for Rebecca in the Meilijia group. However, the basic path is the same. As long as Chen Feng is willing to spend money to promote her and has relevant professionals to help push her, Rebecca's chances of becoming famous are still very high.

Back at the hotel, Luna, to express her gratitude to Chen Feng, pulled out all the stops to please him. She had virtually no practical experience, but she was daring, adventurous, and willing to try anything. Each time, she managed to impress Chen Feng, greatly satisfying his desire for conquest and his curiosity. At the same time, she also enriched his knowledge base.

……

Washington, D.C. The emergency room doors finally opened, and two doctors emerged. Lawrence and his eldest son, Job, rose simultaneously from the bench and approached him anxiously to inquire.

After learning that Byron was out of danger, both father and son breathed a sigh of relief and then thanked the doctor profusely.

After the doctor left, the father and son continued to wait outside the emergency room. After another ten minutes or so, Byron was finally wheeled out of the emergency room. He was still unconscious, and the father and son followed the wheelbarrow to his ward.

After Byron was settled in his hospital bed, the father and son came out of the ward.

"I need to go back to work. You stay here. Don't tell your mother about this yet. We'll talk about everything after Byron wakes up." In the corridor, Lawrence gave his eldest son Job some instructions before hurriedly leaving.

As a deputy minister, he has a rather busy schedule. This time, because his youngest son had an accident, he came to the hospital and waited for several hours. Fortunately, his youngest son was successfully saved, which was a stroke of good luck for him amidst misfortune.

When he returned to his workplace, besides handling work, his main concern was to mobilize manpower and resources to investigate the convenience store owner, since the owner was Chinese, which naturally reminded him of Chen Feng, who was also Chinese.

He needed to find a suitable person, organize a team, and conduct a more in-depth and careful investigation, especially to determine whether there was any private connection between the convenience store owner and Chen Feng.

The reason for such suspicion is quite simple. He had essentially betrayed Chen Feng by reporting Chen Feng's special abilities to Mr. Moore and suggesting that Chen Feng be arrested and sent for experiments to investigate the nature of the magical blood flowing in his body.

Now, however, Mr. Moore had chosen to cooperate with Chen Feng, a Chinese man, and even asked him to remove all surveillance on Chen Feng. This made Lawrence uneasy. In his impression, Mr. Moore and the mysterious organization he represented were fearless. Therefore, there was no reason for Mr. Moore to suddenly change his stance and choose to cooperate with Chen Feng, a Chinese man.

There must be a reason he doesn't know. And this reason, Mr. Moore clearly doesn't want to tell him, may involve deeper secrets. Perhaps Chen Feng has some hidden cards he doesn't know about, making Mr. Moore somewhat hesitant to act. This naturally makes Lawrence somewhat wary of Chen Feng as well.

He was very worried that Chen Feng knew about his previous betrayal. Undoubtedly, if Chen Feng knew that he was the one who informed on him, and that he was the one who suggested Moore send men to arrest him, then he would certainly face retaliation from Chen Feng, this Chinese man.

Therefore, he suspected that the shooting of his youngest son might have been orchestrated and carried out by Chen Feng, with the aim of revenge against him. He even suspected that Mr. Moore might have told Chen Feng about his betrayal, though the possibility was small, he couldn't help but think about it.

Back in his private office, Lawrence immediately summoned one of his trusted henchmen, someone who specialized in doing his dirty work. The task was simple: find someone to monitor the convenience store owner 24/7, thoroughly investigating his relationships, communications, and monitoring his phone and social media accounts. A particular focus was on whether the owner had any secret connections with Chen Feng. The subordinate received the order and immediately went out to contact and gather the necessary personnel to carry out the mission.

……

It was around 5 p.m. when Chen Feng and Luna finally emerged from their hotel room. Chen Feng was somewhat overwhelmed by Luna's persistent pestering.

Luna kept urging Chen Feng to take her to buy a car, especially since he had already transferred 10 yuan to her bank account. She wanted to drive the new car to work tomorrow, Monday.

You can imagine that everything will be different then. The company boss will personally welcome her into the company like a queen. More importantly, that despicable bald Kane will be gone and nowhere to be seen. Her colleagues will also look at her with newfound respect.

Therefore, she wanted to buy a car right now, and one that she could pick up immediately. Chen Feng had previously enjoyed VIP treatment, and since he had nothing else to do, he could only agree to go with her to buy a car after her coaxing and pestering.

Luna's first choice was a Porsche 718, but after calling the dealership, they said they didn't have any in stock and couldn't let her drive it away immediately. Also, the price was slightly over her budget; with taxes, insurance, and other miscellaneous fees, it would probably cost over $10. She didn't have much money herself and was embarrassed to ask Chen Feng for more, so she had to choose something else.

Finally, she chose the Audi Q8. She called the dealership and they had one in stock, with the total price coming to just over $9. She figured she could haggle and get a better price. So, she excitedly dragged Chen Feng straight to the Audi dealership.

After all, it's a capitalist country where money is everything; as long as you have money, you can enjoy efficient service here. The two of them, accompanied by two bodyguards, arrived at the dealership in the hotel's Bentley. There wasn't much small talk afterward, since they had already made prior arrangements. The salesperson led them directly to the test drive, and Chen Feng got in, along with his bodyguard Wang Yichuan, making a total of four people including the salesperson.

Luna drove around the neighborhood herself. After driving a few kilometers, Luna felt she liked it very much. Then she asked Chen Feng for his opinion, and Chen Feng, of course, agreed.

So when they got back to the dealership, Luna readily swiped her card to pay for the car, completed all the formalities, and got a temporary license plate. Then she drove off with Chen Feng.

Having bought her new car, Luna was naturally overjoyed and excited, chattering incessantly. After parking the car in the hotel parking lot, she immediately squeezed from the driver's seat to the passenger seat, sat on Chen Feng's lap, and showered him with passionate kisses. Without a doubt, Luna was absolutely smitten with Chen Feng, this rich, handsome, and energetic man.

If it weren't for the fact that it was broad daylight and the somewhat inappropriate setting—the open-air parking lot next to the hotel—Luna, in her extreme excitement, would definitely have gone at it with Chen Feng again. Perhaps it was her natural talent; even without much experience, her fighting ability was quite impressive, and she was the kind of person who was fearless and grew stronger with each battle.

Luna only let go of Chen Feng when she was almost out of breath. She remained sitting on his lap, panting heavily, and said, "John, I'm really in love with you now. What if I can't live without you?"

Chen Feng laughed and said, "Then you shouldn't leave. I'm already reluctant to see you leave."

The two smiled at each other, Luna radiating happiness. Chen Feng was also in a good mood.

Just then, his phone rang, causing both of them to frown.

However, Chen Feng still took out his phone from his pocket to check. It was an unknown number, which annoyed him, so he immediately rejected the call and hung up. But the other party called back soon after.

Chen Feng thought for a moment, and finally answered the call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Chen? I apologize for bothering you. I am Cornman from Texas. My wife has lymphoma, and the doctors say she has at most a month to live. That's why I'm calling you, hoping you can save her. I'm willing to give you $2 million as you requested. That's almost all my assets. Please help me, please save my wife."

Upon hearing the other person's passionate and moving story—a willingness to sacrifice all their wealth to save their wife's life—Chen Feng felt no emotion. Instead, he frowned and asked, "Where did you hear this?"

"I'm sorry, I heard about this by pure chance. But I've already sworn to the other person not to reveal his information. So I'm really sorry."

"You just believed such a rumor after hearing it by chance? Besides, my rule is that payment is required upfront. Are you sure you can come up with that much money?"

"Huh? Isn't it supposed to be treatment first, and payment only after the illness is cured?" Kang Man asked, somewhat surprised.

Chen Feng's tone immediately turned cold: "Then your information is inaccurate. This is my rule. Contact me again after you've thought it through and raised enough money. But I must tell you, even then, I may not agree to treat your wife's illness. Because I've already given the treatment slot to Carl Hicks, you need his approval to get a slot for me to make a move. So contacting me directly now is useless. I've already reached an agreement with Carl."

After saying this, Chen Feng hung up the phone. (End of Chapter)
