Chapter 66 Future Director Chen! (Please subscribe)

It was around five o'clock in the evening, and the sun was still high in Xiangjiang, showing no sign of setting.

Chen Shiping and Liu Xiaoqing came out of the shopping mall in Central carrying large and small bags, as if they were sweeping the mall.

It was just that the two of them spoke Mandarin, and many people in Xiangjiang who passed by rolled their eyes in disgust.

Chen Shiping couldn't understand what those people were saying, but he could guess it, but he wasn't angry at all.

When a person calls you a nouveau riche, it means he is jealous of your wealth.

Liu Xiaoqing has long been accustomed to people from Xiangjiang being like this. This is not the first time.

Chen Shiping held his waist with one hand and reached for a taxi. He turned to Liu Xiaoqing and said, "I'm exhausted today. I still have more than half of the things I haven't bought."

Liu Xiaoqing smiled and joked: "You don't have to buy it. I'll see if Amin will be angry with you after you go back."

"No way, the baby cabbage is so gentle." Chen Shiping said ostentatiously.

The list Tao Huimin gave him was not only the things she wanted to buy, but also the things her colleagues from the actor troupe in the factory asked Tao Huimin to help bring.

There are too few people who can go out these days. Let alone Hong Kong, even if you go to Shanghai for a business trip, your colleagues and friends will ask you to bring a lot of things.

It’s comparable to purchasing on behalf of others!

Chen Shiping returned to the Regent Hotel and had not yet gone upstairs when he suddenly saw a man walking towards him, and then he remembered that there was someone from the film company waiting for him.

Entrusting the waiter to deliver the things for him, Chen Shiping took the initiative to walk towards that person.

"Hello, are you from Haiwang Film Company?"

Chen Shiping couldn't remember the name clearly and didn't pay attention to it in the morning.

"Hai Long! I am Li Minghua from Hai Long Film Company."

The man wearing a fine shirt, his hair combed meticulously, didn't show any impatience even if Chen Shiping called him by the wrong name.

"Sorry, I was in a hurry this morning and didn't remember it."

Chen Shiping said apologetically: "Mr. Li, I have already negotiated cooperation with Yindu, so I won't waste your company's time."

Li Minghua didn't expect Chen Shiping to secure the investment so quickly, but he still didn't intend to give up. Even if he didn't cooperate this time, he could still cooperate in the future.

"It's okay. The main thing is that I want to make friends with Mr. Chen. I wonder if we can have dinner together tonight?"

Chen Shiping thought about it for a while and agreed. It wouldn't hurt to get to know more people.

It was only when we had dinner together in the evening that Chen Shiping finally saw the atmosphere of Xiangjiang Film Company.

Abalone and lobster seem to be free of charge, and wine worth several thousand yuan is available at the drop of a hat.

Li Minghua took out a beautifully packaged box, opened it and handed it to Chen Shiping. He smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, you are a great writer. I will prepare a meeting gift for you. I hope you like it."

The golden pen shines under the light, and the color looks expensive!

No wonder Li Lianjie couldn't resist the temptation at first. Life is nothing but fame and fortune.

Chen Shiping looked at the pen that glowed under the light, and he liked it quite a bit, but he didn't get any reward for his work.

Eating is okay to make friends, but receiving gifts is not appropriate.

Chen Shiping put the pen back into the box, pushed it back gently and said, "Mr. Li's kindness is appreciated, and he will not be rewarded for his efforts."

Li Minghua was a little surprised that Chen Shiping would refuse. After a few words of persuasion, he still didn't accept it, so he had to give up.

"Mr. Chen, I wonder if Beijing Film Studio has plans to make co-productions in the future? Set up a co-production department like Xi Film Studio?"

Li Minghua is most concerned about this issue. Among the film studios in the mainland, Beijing Film Studio is one of the top ones.

"Coming to Hong Kong this time to seek investment is an experiment." Chen Shiping said while drinking tea: "If we can succeed this time, we will set up a co-production department in the future."

When Li Minghua heard this, his thoughts changed and he said with a smile: "Then I would like to congratulate Mr. Chen in advance on his promotion!"

As soon as he said this, Chen Shiping smiled and said nothing. He was bragging, and he didn't have to take responsibility anyway. However, this was indeed the promotion plan he had prepared for himself. Instead of being the deputy director of the editing, directing, and production department, he would be better off being the director of the co-production department!

If you want a deputy position, just go to the main job! Please call Director Chen from now on!

Liu Xiaoqing, who was sitting next to him and had been eating, looked at him very surprised. He didn't expect that there was a plan to set up a co-production department.

If we were to choose one person to lead the co-production department in the factory, there seems to be no more suitable person besides Chen Shiping!

On the way back to the hotel in the evening, Liu Xiaoqing looked at Chen Shiping's young profile and really admired him in his heart. He looked at him every step he took.

Liu Xiaoqing also knew about Song Zhuo's crisis this time. She didn't expect that Chen Shiping would seize this opportunity. It was too late for others to hide. He was the only one thinking about how to strive for the top.

Maybe in a few years I will call him Director Chen.

Chen Shiping didn't care that his ambition was exposed in front of Liu Xiaoqing, so that the rich lady could see his potential, so that he could make more money in the future. Returning to the hotel room at night, Chen Shiping lay on the bed unable to sleep. When a man stays in a hotel and there is a small card in the room, he always feels confused.

It's like seeing a small advertisement posted on a car. Even if you don't have any money in your pocket, you can't help but be curious and scan the code to take a look.

But it’s just out of curiosity, the cracks in the floor are not classy at all!

Chen Shiping was just about to lie down when the phone rang suddenly. He picked it up without thinking, and his face darkened.

"Sir, do you want to serve? There is a girl from Beijing who has just arrived."

"Bei, your mother! Get out!"

After Chen Shiping finished cursing, he hung up the phone and pounced on the street boy! Let no one sleep!

At this time, in a high-end apartment in Central, Guan Zhilin was flipping through a traditional Chinese novel.

The name of the novel was Xu Sanguan's Story of Selling Blood, but she turned a few pages and threw it aside. Instead, she took out the movie video tape sent by her friend.

The movie is also about Xu Sanguan selling blood.

She asked someone to inquire about Chen Shiping, and only got two pieces of information. He was a famous mainland writer and producer, and a winner of the Palme d'Or.

Guan Zhilin was very curious as to why Chen Shiping came to find him, so he found the novel and the video tape.

Mainly I wanted to see what kind of movies Chen Shiping made and why he cast me in the role.

After seeing Chen Shiping's name appearing several times in the opening subtitles of the film, Guan Zhilin felt that he must be a person who loves to show off.

Soon the movie started, and Guan Zhilin didn't like the style of this literary film.

However, after watching it patiently for a few minutes, I was attracted by the content of the movie.

It wasn't until the movie was over that Guan Zhilin came back to his senses. He touched the corners of his eyes and found that they were a little damp. A man like Xu Sanguan was really nice.

Deep down, Guan Zhilin likes such responsible and responsible men.

Xu Sanguan's joy with her children in the movie reminded her of her own childhood, which was the happiest time in her life.

No matter how busy their parents are, they will always leave one person to take care of themselves and their younger brother.

Unfortunately, her father later moved on and her mother left for the United States with her younger brother. At that time, her happiness disappeared.

From then on, she began to resent her father and started looking for Huang Mao to make him angry. Later, she discovered that men are all the same.

In the dim living room, the red wine on the coffee table remained untouched, and only the TV was emitting bursts of fluorescence.

Guan Zhilin sat on the sofa with his knees bent and hugged his legs, watching the TV picture of Xu Sanguan surrounded by his family, feeling very lonely in his heart.

"It would be great if all men were like Xu Sanguan. He could support a family by himself and sell his blood to treat his children."

After feeling alone for a while, Guan Zhilin turned to look at the phone number Director Liao left for her, and dialed it after hesitation.

Chen Shiping, who had just fallen asleep in the Regent Hotel, was woken up by a phone call. Looking at the ringing landline, he felt a little irritated. He finally fell asleep and was woken up again!

Is the floor sewing business in Xiangjiang so bad? Did you even call? !

Chen Shiping felt inexplicably angry when he got out of bed, picked up the phone and shouted: "I told you not to serve, can't you understand Mandarin?! Don't call me again!"

Guan Zhilin on the other side rubbed his ears blankly. Was he scolded without saying a word?

Guan Zhilin, who came back to his senses, couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that Producer Chen was being harassed by the chicken head very miserably.

Guan Zhilin felt it was a bit funny, and even if he was scolded a few times, he didn't feel too angry.

To be honest, she quite admired Chen Shiping for keeping himself clean.

She has seen many people from the mainland who come to Xiangjiang to make a living. They are very honest when they have no money. After working hard to make money, they can't help but look for women.

Chen Shiping is definitely not a poor man who struggles. Newspapers reported that he sold the copyright of Xu Sanguan for a high price of one million US dollars.

So he is not the kind of street boy who is poor and has no money to find a woman, but he is really clean and self-sufficient!

Before they even met, Guan Zhilin suddenly had a good impression of Chen Shiping.

She feels that what is seen in such unexpected situations is a person's true character, and that carefully prepared meetings are all performances.

Guan Zhilin lay on the sofa with his hands on his chest, looking forward to meeting Chen Shiping tomorrow.
