Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Li Shuo narrowed his eyes and finally satisfied Wei Shuting's curiosity:
"This is a different time. We have just arrived in Beijing and we should establish some interest connections. The share transaction of Beijing Cultural and Creative Industry is a good opportunity."

This is what it means when you are in the world of martial arts, you have no choice. When Li Shuo rejected Yu Nuannuan, he didn't want to make money from Lan Ying'er, but at this celebration banquet, he met Zhou Wenxian and Chen Guanwei one after another.

It was obvious at first glance that these two were not easy to mess with. Chen Guanwei had hostility written all over her face, and Li Shuo felt that he would definitely have a conflict with Zhou Wenxian in the future because of his character and hobbies. After all, he had a goddaughter too!
In this case, Li Shuo would have to make arrangements in advance, at least to pull one against one, so as to avoid offending two people at the same time. Li Shuo would have a very difficult time in the capital.

The main reason is that Beijing has a special status and is a core city in the country. If the Shuoguo Group wants to grow bigger and stronger, it must at least have some influence here, even if it doesn't take root and build its headquarters here. Therefore, forming an alliance of interests is almost an inevitable choice.

The task of "helping the shareholders of the cultural and creative company to ship goods" was not only done by Wei Shuting. After the celebration banquet, Li Shuo also brought Lan Ying'er to find Lan's father and briefly talked about this matter.

Of course, Li Shuo would not say that he was a middleman, he just asked Lan's father whether he was interested in reducing his holdings before the listing.

Father Lan thought for a moment and said, "After Jingcheng Creative went public, many people wanted to buy shares from me. I couldn't help but sell a lot of them. Now there are not many left in my hands. Moreover, I have confidence in the development of the company. The lock-up period after listing is only 2 years. As the chairman, I will naturally hold on until then!"

Just considering this courage, Li Shuo was impressed. Haven't you seen how many major shareholders of listed companies urgently sold or even cleared out their shares before listing?

These wealthy people understand the iron rule of the securities market best: shares of a junk company in your hands will always be nothing but blank pieces of paper!

"Uncle has such confidence, I won't sell my shares..."

"Don't! It's not that I have confidence, but I don't have a good idea of ​​how to deal with this sudden money. Besides, it's not like I'm going to quit in the future... Well, you young people are different from me. Now is the time to use the money... Including you, Ying'er, you should have a plan for the future. If you want to do something, it will be a good opportunity to reduce your holdings before the listing..."

Some polite words had to be said, and Lan's father naturally would not restrict Li Shuo. He was even open-minded enough to let Lan Ying'er make her own decisions about the shares in her hands.

At this point, the guests and hosts are enjoying themselves.

It was already 2 p.m. when Li Shuo left Beijing Cultural and Creative Company. He wanted to find an excuse to separate from Lan Ying'er, but considering her docile behavior since last night, he took Lan Ying'er directly to an office building on a street in Dongcheng District.

After everyone got off the car, He Yun introduced at the right time: "Shuo Ge'er, the house you bought is in Dongcheng District, and the company only rents an office floor, so the Beijing branch and Shuoguo Assets are directly located here. Come on, I'll take you to see where it is on the 10th floor..."

He Yun and Wei Shuting arrived in Beijing two days in advance, accompanied by a small number of Shuoguo employees. So when the two women took Li Shuo and Lan Ying'er to the 10th floor, they could see that the decoration here had been completed:

Walk out of the elevator and turn left, you can see the half-opened Shuoguo logo with the words "京城硕果" on the top.

"It's quite fast. The logo has already been put up." Li Shuo praised.

He Yun smiled and said, "When Director Wei came last time, we had already started looking for a place, so the decoration here has actually been going on for half a month. Because the previous owner is also a cultural company, there are actually not many places we need to decorate..."

I took a step forward and the sliding glass door opened automatically, revealing a relatively spacious square-like area. The company's front desk was separated from the front, with the Shuoguo logo also on the background. There were handrails on the left and right sides, a time clock had been installed, and there were even two security guards on standby.

Taking a look at the security guard's clothes, Li Shuo was a little surprised: "Shuoguo security guards are here too?"

He Yun replied, "This is also the Shuoguo Group, so naturally we have to be small but well-equipped. However, the security personnel are recruited locally... Of course, they are all migrant workers from other places. It is not easy to live in a big city like Beijing. Our company is of a relatively high grade, so we have an advantage in recruiting people. Moreover, both of them are from Jiangsu Province. After working here for a while, they can return to their hometown... We have reached a cooperation with Jinxiu Property, and will train security personnel in Songshan in the future, which is also Jiangsu Province."

While listening to Su Yun's answer, Li Shuo walked into the interior. The number of people inside suddenly decreased a lot, which gave Li Shuo a feeling of a "new company".

Of course, as everyone came in, dozens of employees gathered here, and then, during He Yun's introduction, they all greeted Li Shuo: "Good afternoon, Boss!"

Li Shuo smiled and waved his hand, said some words to everyone, "Work hard" and "I will give everyone red envelopes when work officially starts", and then let everyone go.

He turned to look at Wei Shuting again: "Is this your doing again?"

Without waiting for Wei Shuting to answer, He Yun chuckled and said, "Although it was Director Wei who conducted the employee training, I ordered you to be addressed as such..."

She looked at Li Shuo and said meaningfully, "The boss will call you old when speaking Chinese, but I think it sounds more impressive when speaking English. This is very popular in Beijing..."

Li Shuo knew this. In fact, it was not only in Beijing, but also in Lenghai, Yuecheng, Shenzhen and other economically developed regions in China where companies were very popular with English names. Even some fashionable girls would give themselves a beautiful English name as the first thing they did when they entered the company, making themselves look like foreigners.

Finally, Li Shuo commented:
"I neither hate nor like this trend, so don't do it again in the future..."

He Yun described this place as "fully equipped", and there is a reason for that. In addition to Shuoguo Assets having already established a branch here, Shuoguo Internet and Shuoguo Culture also have people stationed here.

So, Li Shuo originally came to see the group's new location in Beijing, but he didn't expect that after entering the Shuoguo Culture Branch, he looked up and saw Reba sitting inside. She was wearing a pure and sweet white dress, with her legs crossed and her body nestled in the sofa very comfortably. There was actually a middle-aged woman beside her muttering something...

Seeing them come in, the middle-aged woman immediately stood up:
"Mr. He, Director Wei..."

His eyes involuntarily fell on Li Shuo. At the same time, He Yun introduced: "Mr. Li, this is Wei Changchun, the agent of Xiao Mi Studio..."

Li Shuo knew about this. Wei Changchun used to work for Rongchuang Art Company and was in charge of Yang Xiaomi's agency business for a while. Perhaps because he saw Yang Xiaomi's potential, he followed her into Xiaomi's studio. Now Yang Xiaomi's relationship with Rongchuang is not harmonious, and many businesses have been suspended. Only Reba seems to have amazing potential, so Wei Changchun took charge of her economic business.

"Hello, Mr. Li. Since Reba knew you were in Beijing, she has been clamoring to come over... She is too young after all, and actually has a lot of work to do in the crew..."

Wei Changchun naturally knew Li Shuo. She greeted him with a flattering face. The two sentences before and after seemed to be blaming Reba, but in fact she was telling Li Shuo that Reba had dropped her business and came to see him, and that the beauty was full of love.

Li Shuo understood, but he didn't say anything. He just asked casually, "The crew? "Palace"? How's that song going?"

Wei Changchun said quickly: "After we came to Beijing, we had dinner with Teacher Li Shaohong last night and asked her to listen to the soundtrack of "Love Offering". When she heard that this song was your work, she praised it highly, but did not say whether she would use it as the theme song."

Li Shuo raised his eyebrows, showing surprise: Yang Xiaomi had failed to get the matter settled before, and he thought it was because his "actor" level was not high enough, but he was unable to get Li Shaohong to speak, which was a very strange problem.

"Well, I see..."

Li Shuo did not respond immediately, but nodded and looked at Lan Ying'er who was following him and staring at Reba with a vigilant look.

"Ying'er, let me introduce you to this, this is Reba..."

Li Shuo pointed his finger and introduced Reba and Lan Ying'er to each other. He certainly wouldn't say "Reba is my real girlfriend at Lenghai Drama Academy" or "Lan Ying'er is my girlfriend in Beijing", but just briefly introduced the identities of the two women, and then said to He Yun: "Sister, Ying'er is the first time to visit our Shuoguo, you can take her to visit, and by the way, let her see the development of our Shuoguo culture..."

Lan Ying'er knew that these words were directed at her. She pursed her lips and wanted to act like a young lady from Beijing. However, He Yun and others were still here. She knew that if she acted like this now, it would only embarrass Li Shuo and thus reduce her weight in the man's heart.

After a full minute, Lan Ying'er forced a smile and followed He Yun out. At the same time, Wei Changchun and others naturally followed them out with great vigilance and even closed the door.

Li Shuo sat next to Reba, let the girl lean on his shoulder, and waited for the girl to speak.

After 3 minutes, Reba sighed and said, "How many women do you need to change your mind?"

Because she had already decided on Li Shuo in her heart, she had never considered breaking up with him. Now, she only regrets that she didn't do something with him earlier. Now she can only watch Li Shuo attract many men!

"This is really an accident. Even if the Shuoguo Group plans to establish a branch in Beijing, I have never thought about doing anything in Beijing in the future. My roots will always be in Lenghai..."

On the surface, Li Shuo was avoiding the question, but in fact he was giving Reba a reassurance: since the man's focus was on Leng Hai, she would always be his "official girlfriend".

Afterwards, Li Shuo mentioned "Offering of Love" again. This song was originally written to change the role of Reba. He thought it was a sure thing, but he didn't expect that it has not been done yet!

Reba sighed and said, "When I came to Beijing, I joined the crew as soon as possible. It was only after I joined that I realized that the interpersonal relationships in a large crew are really complicated. Almost every actor has various background forces and various interests behind him. One move can affect the whole body, so even a super director like Teacher Li has to take care of the face of his subordinates..."

Li Shuo frowned and sneered: "Is it really like this? I don't believe it! Li Shaohong is not only a great director, but also a major shareholder of Rongchuang Art Company. If she can't even solve such a small matter, then Rongchuang Art should have closed down long ago!"

"That's true, but why does she have to hold me back?" Reba frowned.

Li Shuo comforted him, "Don't worry, since I'm here, I will naturally help you get the role. If it really doesn't work, we won't hang ourselves on a tree. I will definitely find a better project than "Palace"!"

He was not lying again, but he really had similar thoughts. Although "Palace" was very popular, there was always "Startling by Each Step" overshadowing it. That drama was the one that started a new trend and a new era of whip romance dramas. However, according to the information Li Shuo received, "Startling by Each Step" was prepared earlier than "Palace" and is now in the final stage of filming. It is naturally possible to squeeze supporting roles in it, but the price to pay will certainly be extremely high.

In short, although Reba came to Beijing, she did not bring any useful information. This girl would be extremely outstanding in the drama academy, but she is still too immature to enter the society, especially in a large-scale drama crew.

On the contrary, Wei Changchun, after returning, brought some useful information to Li Shuo: "Mr. Li, in fact, in my opinion, Reba is still young, there is no need to rush... Well, the main reason is that the opponent this time is quite powerful, the deputy director of the crew, Yu Haiyang, he is a famous screenwriter, and now he has transformed into a director. He is also backed by Rongchuang's shareholders, especially Director Zhou Huanian, who admires Director Yu very much and intends to let him be the director of the next project..."

Zhou Huanian, the big shot in the art department of Beijing!
Li Shuo understood instantly that this was the person Li Shaohong didn't want to offend!

Or……

Li Shuo looked at Reba and asked, "Have you met Zhou Huanian?"

Reba shrank his neck and said slowly: "The last time I came to Beijing, I had dinner with Sister Mi and many people from Rongchuang..."

The last time Yang Xiaomi returned to Lenghai, she happened to meet Li Shuo, which means that Reba had met Zhounianhua a month ago! At that time, this girl was still thinking about "not relying on Li Shuo, and making a name for herself", so she was running around to make connections, and that's why she joined Yang Xiaomi's studio.

Li Shuo had a headache and wanted to blame him, but then he thought that this might be his own fault. He knew that Reba would develop quickly, but when Shuoguo Culture was just established, he was concerned about Bailu and did not force Reba to join! In that case, it was natural for Reba to find a way out on his own...

Besides, this hasn't caused any conflict with Zhou Huanian. Can he blame Reba for being too stunningly beautiful and attracting an old man who likes to be his goddaughter?
Of course not. In fact, Li Shuo has already decided in his heart that if Zhounianhua really has ideas about Reba, then he may have to fight a tough battle this time in Beijing!

With this in mind, Li Shuo made the matter of getting Reba into the crew a top priority! (End of this chapter)
