Chapter 478: Male socialite, fake rich boy?

The professional managers led by Sui Lingfang met Ye Weijie on the road.

When Sui Lingfang saw him, she even greeted him: "Director Ye, where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Ye Weijie nodded at her, noticing the stranger beside her. He wanted to stop and chat for a few words, but when he thought of Ma Mingqi, his face immediately darkened and he hurriedly said:
"I'm going to go find the village chief first, and we can talk later if there's anything."

Sui Lingfang was a little puzzled when she saw his running back. During these days in Chitang Village, she mostly saw Ye Weijie taking pictures with ease, and rarely saw him so panicked.

Thinking of this, her expression became serious.

Could it be that something happened to the crew in Chitang Village, so they needed to quickly find the village chief to discuss it?

The professional manager next to her asked curiously, "Is the person who just greeted you Ye Weijie, the director of My Life of Mediocreness?"

Sui Lingfang was worried, but she didn't show it on her face. She slowed down and said, "Yes, you also know this director, and the TV series he made?"

Although she was anxious to know why Ye Weijie went to see the village chief, reason told her that it would be better for her to go to the village chief later.

If something serious really happened, it should definitely not be made public, and the professional managers around her would be better off not hearing about it.

Ye Weijie kept running and looked far ahead, but he didn't see Ma Mingqi.

He cursed in his heart: "What did this kid eat to grow up? Why is he walking so fast? Did he find a shorter path?"

Finally arriving at the village chief's office, Ye Weijie found that Ma Mingqi was already chatting with the village chief.

Although I couldn't hear what they were saying standing outside, I could clearly hear the village chief's laughter.

Ye Weijie's heart skipped a beat, and without even knocking on the door, he quickly pushed it open and walked in.

The village chief was delighted when he saw him: "Director Ye, you are here. It just so happened that an artist from your crew told me that he wanted to invest in Chitang Village and asked me to introduce him to some investment land!"

Ye Weijie slowed down his breathing, glanced at the jubilant Ma Mingqi, and then looked at the village chief who was so happy that he was almost dancing.

He just felt like he was sandwiched between the two people, like a hamburger, and he was a piece of synthetic beef that was neither human inside nor outside.

It's hard and unpalatable when you bite it.

But there was no way, he came here to ruin the atmosphere, so he still had to say what he had to say.

Ye Weijie first said: "Village Chief, I came to talk to you about something else. Let Xiao Ma go out and avoid it first."

The village chief and Ma Mingqi were slightly stunned, but neither of them thought much about it, and Ma Mingqi prepared to leave.

Ye Weijie stopped him at this time, "Xiao Ma, I just ran over here and I'm a little thirsty. Can you go to the village store and buy me a bottle of Coke?"

Ma Mingqi said, "Okay, Director Ye."

Ye Weijie watched him leave with his own eyes. Without closing the door, he stood at the door, keeping an eye on everything around him and started talking to the village chief.

The village chief found him like this a little strange.

Maybe he has something urgent to do, but now it doesn't seem like that.

But he was not in a hurry. He just ran over in a hurry and the sweat was still dripping down his forehead.

"Director Ye, what do you want to talk to me about?" The village chief decided to take the initiative to speak.

Ye Weijie thought for a while, not knowing how to start the conversation. Finally, he sighed and chose a euphemism.

"Village Chief, Xiao Ma came to you just now and said he wanted to invest in Chi Pond Village, right?"

The village chief nodded: "Yes, and he is very generous. After chatting with me for a while, he immediately asked me to take him to see the place."

Ye Weijie said with a complicated expression: "Village head, you should know that investment depends on people. If there are many people who want to invest in a place, but there is only one place and there is not enough to go around, what should we do?

The local authorities will first assess what industries the investors are investing in and their capabilities, and eliminate those with incompetent businessmen and those who invest in the wrong industries, and then slowly select from the remaining people.”

The village chief nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's the truth."

Ye Weijie: "So I came here this time to tell you that you should plan the investment and construction of Chitang Village well. As Chitang Village becomes more and more popular, many businessmen will want to invest here.

But you have to carefully consider what industry to invest in, whether it can support local employment, or promote the local development direction. "

Seeing that the village chief seemed a little confused, Ye Weijie spoke more bluntly.

"Chitang Village is destined to develop in the direction of scenic tourism. If investors come here to build car factories or clothing factories instead of B&Bs or tourism-related businesses, do you think this is in line with the development direction of Chitang Village?"

The village chief understood now, "That's definitely not appropriate!"

Ye Weijie said: "So you need to carefully examine what others are investing in. You must stipulate this when signing the contract, so that they don't say one thing to you but actually do another."

The village chief looked at Ye Weijie and said with some emotion: "You are such a good person. Without you, Chitang Village would definitely not be on the right track so quickly. I don't understand what you said."

The village chief was so moved that he wanted to become sworn brothers with Ye Weijie.

Ye Weijie refused again and again.

The village chief said, "Why don't you come to Chitang Village to work? I'll apply for a position for you, such as a development planning consultant."

Ye Weijie said with a smile: "No, I'm giving you advice, not because I want to be an official."

“And the little pony who just came to see you, although he is an employee of the crew, I don’t know his identity or background.

If he really wants to invest in Chitang Village, you should not give him a green light just for my sake. You should conduct the necessary review and capital verification.”

After hearing what he had just said, the village chief had nothing else he didn't understand, so he nodded immediately.

"Don't worry, I won't approve his investment just for your sake. I will definitely ask him about it."

Ye Weijie was still a little worried and said, “There are still too few talents in Chitang Village. If someone wants to invest, you’d better find a lawyer outside to help you look at the contract.

The investment amount and purpose of the investment should be clearly stated in the contract. If anything goes wrong in the future, everything will be based on the contract, and Chitang Village will not suffer any loss."

The village chief hesitated. "But I don't know any lawyers. When I go to the county town, I basically go to meetings. What if I get cheated?"

Ye Weijie thought that he might as well take the matter into his own hands.

"I'll introduce you to a lawyer from South City. The firm he works for is very famous outside, and he has done a lot of public welfare projects, such as helping migrant workers to collect their wages. The fees are not expensive. If you think he's a good lawyer after your inspection, you can let him handle this matter."

Ye Weijie also breathed a sigh of relief when he said this.

It will take at least three or four days for the lawyer to come over from South City and hand over the matters at hand.

If by that time, Ma Mingqi still wanted to invest and made a decent investment plan, and even the village chief thought it was good, he would have no reason to stop him.

Do your best and leave the rest to fate. He has done his best to fulfill his obligation to remind people.

What happened next was not his business. He couldn't possibly ask the village chief to stop him from accepting Ma Mingqi's investment. Besides, how could there be no pitfalls in investment?

Even Warren Buffett has investment failures.

If Ma Mingqi suffers losses in the future and people blame him, he will have a clear conscience.

After he finished talking with the village chief, Sui Lingfang and the professional manager arrived late.

On the way here, she deliberately slowed down her pace, took her manager to the convenience store, bought a few bottles of drinks, and then came back.

When the village chief saw Sui Lingfang, he frowned subconsciously, but soon smiled again.

This agent is smart and hard to fool. No matter how dissatisfied he is, he dare not offend her.

"Boss Fang, who is this person next to you?"

Sui Lingfang shook the village chief's hand with a smile on her face, as if she had not been turned away by the village chief a few days ago.

"Village chief, this is a professional manager who is responsible for helping me manage my assets.

I want to invest in Chi Pond Village, but I have work to do and it is difficult to supervise. The role of this manager is to stay in Chi Pond Village and help me with subsequent investment, construction and development.

I want to build an economical B&B here in Chitang Village. After it is built, I will hand it over to this professional manager to manage in the future.

I came here today to sign the investment contract. If you have any questions, just tell him. I will follow his opinion."

When the village chief heard her say to sign the contract, he was delighted. Then he thought of the promise he had just made to Director Ye and subconsciously turned to look at Director Ye.

Sui Lingfang raised her eyebrows and turned to look.

Ye Weijie cleared his throat and said with a righteous look:

“I just mentioned the development plan of Chitang Village to the village chief. He thinks that people can’t just invest casually. We need to agree on the investment projects and find a lawyer to look at the contract.

The lawyer I recommended is a law firm in South City, and it will probably take three or four days for them to arrive. "

Sui Lingfang's eyes flashed with thought, she felt that Ye Weijie really cared about Chitang Village. Although he was not a villager, he cared more about it than the village chief.

Could it be that because this was the filming location he chose, he had some special feelings for Chiquan Village and that's why he took it so seriously?
Under the anxious gaze of the village chief, Sui Lingfang said methodically: "This is perfect. The contract is more formal, the process is more regular, and everyone can rest assured."

The village chief felt relieved and said, "Come on, come on, sit down and talk. Let's have some tea first."

Ye Weijie and Sui Lingfang both found an excuse to leave and asked the professional manager to talk to the village chief first.

After leaving the village chief's office, Ma Mingqi came back with the water, looking a little awkward.

Ma Mingqi said embarrassedly: "Director, I accidentally fell into a pit when I came back from buying water, which delayed me a little. Here is your Coke."

Ye Weijie took it with both hands and said with a guilty conscience: "I'm sorry, I should have known not to let you go to buy water, and you fell down."

Ma Mingqi smiled shyly: "It's my honor to buy water for Director Ye!"

Ye Weijie: "Well, I have something to do and I'll leave first. You don't have any scenes this afternoon, so have a good rest."

Sui Lingfang and Ye Weijie left together. After they walked quite far away, Sui Lingfang suddenly asked:

"You see that Ma Mingqi's eyes are very strange. Did he do something bad? Did you take advantage of him?"

Ye Weijie opened the Coke and was about to drink it, and he was so excited when he heard the words that he almost spilled the Coke in his hand.

"I took advantage of him? What do I want? I don't like men!"

Sui Lingfang observed the expression on his face and confirmed that there was nothing wrong before she smiled and said, "I was just saying it casually."

Ye Weijie wiped the unnecessary sweat from his forehead and said, "It's because of what Jinli said that I came here to make up for the loss.

If I wasn't worried that he would resent me in the future because of investment losses, I wouldn't have come to tell the village chief that I wanted to inspect and verify the capital."

For the development of Chitang Village, the village chief will definitely review the investment projects carefully.

As long as you don’t invest recklessly, you probably won’t lose much.

After all, there is no shortage of east wind in Chitang Village. If you stand in the wind, even a pig can fly.

Sui Lingfang suddenly thought of something and said in an ambiguous tone, "Your reminder is timely, otherwise Chitang Village might have really been cheated."

Ye Weijie was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Sui Lingfang: "When I came here, I also went to the store and met Ma Mingqi. He was on the phone and didn't notice me. He sounded a little excited when he was on the phone, and I heard some of it."

She paused and said, "Ma Mingqi has no money and is borrowing 20,000 yuan from his relatives. He also said that he has found a way to become rich and wants to bring more people on board. The more money the better, and it would be best if he could get one million yuan.

The Coke in Ye Weijie's hand sprayed out.

He crushed it with his force.

"Borrow money? And he needs to get together one million? Why doesn't he just rob?!" Ye Weijie shouted.

Sui Lingfang shrugged: "I don't know whether it's true or not, but this is what I heard."

She asked curiously, "Hey, is this Ma Mingqi very poor?"

Ye Weijie looked puzzled: "He's not poor. Judging from the clothes he wears, they're all brand names."

Sui Lingfang: "He is a star, the company will package him, you can't tell from his clothes."

Ye Weijie was even more speechless.

"But he always tells others that he is a second-generation rich man, and his parents both run companies and earn tens of millions a year. If he can't make it in the entertainment industry, he will go to work in his parents' company."

Sui Lingfang: "This..."

In the past, she had only heard of fake socialites, where a brand-name bag was rented out by many women for photo shoots.

An expensive hotel room was shared by many people just to take photos.

And now, even the rich second generation are fake?

What is this called?
Fake rich boy? Fake nobleman?

Sui Lingfang said uncertainly: "Maybe they really have money, but they just can't take out so much money at the moment. We can't ask about the private affairs of artists."

She ended the conversation with a respectable statement, saying it had nothing to do with her anyway.

Sui Lingfang felt a little regretful. It was a pity that she had to return to Chenxi Entertainment tomorrow. Otherwise, she would like to stay for a few more days to get some information about whether the young master was a real rich boy or a fake rich boy.
