How can you ascend to heaven when you are a star?
Chapter 164 Concern
Chapter 164 Concern
Gao Yue was completely stunned when he saw the 80 million investment marked on the contract.
I was still worrying about the funds for filming a TV series during the day, but at night I got an investment of 80 million yuan. It was like a dream.
She pinched her thigh hard with her hand.
hiss... it hurts!
Not a dream.
She couldn't help but look up at the man who was toasting each other at the table. Was this really taken by the other party?
After receiving the call, she thought it was the investment that Xiaolu had obtained, so on the way here, she was worried about Xiaolu, worried that the investor would take advantage of him. After all, this kind of thing is too common in the entertainment industry. Not to mention the new generation of young actresses, even the best actor, actress, and queen cannot escape the fate of being taken advantage of by others while drinking.
But when she walked in and saw Zhang Wen and the investors acting like brothers, her eyes were full of disbelief, and she even wondered for a moment if she had walked into a film set.
It was not until the investor signed the contract and continued to chat with Zhang Wen, completely ignoring Xiao Lu, that he began to slowly accept reality.
"Brother, I've signed the contract. Tell me the truth. Is that medicinal soup that can strengthen the body real?"
Perhaps because he drank too much, Wu Defa spoke incoherently and his face turned red.
He wouldn't drink the wine offered in drinking competitions, but he would definitely drink the wine offered by his brothers. So he drank one glass after another, and before he knew it, he had already drunk a bottle and a half.
"Really? Of course it's true. How could I lie to you, Mr. Wu? As the old saying goes: Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. You just saw my performance. If it weren't for the medicinal soup to regulate my body, a normal person would have been taken away by 120 for emergency treatment." Zhang Wen said with a smile, his eyes wandering, and he was obviously a little drunk.
"Brother, can you give me some medicinal soup to drink? My current physical indicators are all high."
"Mr. Wu, it's not that I'm stingy, it's just that the raw materials are too precious and hard to find. I haven't drunk it in a long time, and the body I have now is all cultivated when I was a child."
"It doesn't matter if it's precious or hard to find. I have money, and there's nothing I can't buy with money. Go ahead and buy it, brother. I'll pay any price."
"Okay, since Mr. Wu wants it, I will do my best to find the herbs, but Mr. Wu, you can't be impatient."
The medicinal soup that Zhang Wen mentioned is actually fairy peach. Since fairy peach has such powerful effects, why not use it to cash in?
It doesn't matter to him whether he eats one more or one less. Anyway, he has the blessing of the Star God and will never worry about not having enough to eat in the future.
But he hasn't figured out how much a fairy peach should be sold for.
This Wu guy is so rich, he can invest 80 million just like that, so it should be no problem to sell it for a few hundred thousand, right?
"Okay, brother, I'll wait for your good news. Come on, cheers." Wu Defa raised his glass after saying that.
If at the beginning he simply wanted to get people drunk, now he wants to use drinking to build closer relationships.
He believed that drinking habits reflected a person's character, so he was determined to be friends with the brother next to him.
"Cheers, I wish Mr. Wu good health and all the best." Zhang Wen picked up the wine glass.
"..."
After chatting for a while, Zhang Wen and Wu Defa supported each other and walked out of the hotel.
Although the distance from the private room to the main door was not far, it took the two of them ten minutes to get there. They took three steps forward and two steps back, looking like they were dancing.
Gao Yue and others carefully stayed around, fearing that the two drunk people would fall.
A Mercedes-Benz S600 was parked outside the hotel. When the driver saw Wu Defa, he immediately got out and helped the boss into the car, and the female secretary also got in.
"Zhang, Brother Zhang, let's make an appointment another day." Wu Defa said loudly in a daze, and then fell headfirst into the legs of the female secretary.
Zhang Wen swallowed his saliva and really wished he had a pair of legs like this to use as a pillow.
The life of rich people is indeed colorful.
"Okay, it's a deal!" Zhang Wen said incoherently, then closed the car door. When he backed away, he tripped and leaned backwards.
Bai Lu, who was standing by, was quick to support the man, otherwise Zhang Wen would have fallen.
The car slowly drove away from the hotel and soon disappeared into the night.
Zhang Wen, who originally needed help from others, now stood up straight, and his drunken eyes became clear and bright again.
"Teacher Zhang, are you okay?" Bai Lu asked worriedly, still holding the other's arms tightly with both hands, fearing that he would fall again.
"It's okay." Zhang Wen smiled.
Gao Yue looked at him carefully and asked doubtfully, "You, aren't you drunk?"
"Yeah." Zhang Wen nodded.
"Impossible!" Bai Lu shook his head repeatedly, his eyes full of disbelief.
Maybe others don’t know, but she saw it clearly. Teacher Zhang drank seven or eight bottles in total. A normal person would have been pushed into the ICU by then. How could Teacher Zhang not be drunk at all?
Not to mention seven bottles of Maozi, even seven bottles of mineral water might cause water poisoning.
"Why, do I look like I'm drunk?" Zhang Wen looked at Bai Lu and asked.
"No, it doesn't look like that. What about you and Boss Wu just now..." Bai Lu thought of the way Teacher Zhang swayed when he said goodbye to Boss Wu, and he almost fell down.
"How was the performance? My acting was pretty good, right?" Zhang Wen asked with a smile.
The investors are already drunk. If he doesn't get drunk, wouldn't it be impolite?
Bai Lu was completely shocked this time.
A word popped up in her mind: never get drunk even if you drink a thousand cups.
"Teacher Zhang, how did you do it?" Bai Lu's eyes lit up. After asking, he suddenly remembered what Teacher Zhang had told Boss Wu, so he asked, "Is that health-strengthening soup you mentioned real?"
"Of course it's true." Zhang Wen said.
He has already made up his mind that the next time he draws a fairy peach, he will squeeze the peach into juice and then mix some isatis root into it. Who would then doubt that this is not a medicinal soup?
"I want to drink too!" Bai Lu said loudly, his eyes full of excitement and eagerness.
Her request was simple. She didn't need to drink a thousand cups like Teacher Zhang without getting drunk. She only needed to drink four or five bottles of Maotai liquor without getting drunk. This alcohol tolerance was enough for her to handle all kinds of drinking parties. From now on, her mother would no longer have to worry about others taking advantage of her after she got drunk.
"Don't make a fuss, it's very expensive." Zhang Wen thought for a moment and added, "Even more expensive than psychotherapy."
"As long as it works, no matter how much money it costs, it's fine." Bai Lu said seriously.
She is not afraid of spending more money, but she is afraid that the money will be spent ineffectively.
Of course, if someone else had said these words, she wouldn't have believed them, but since they came from Teacher Zhang, she believed them a hundred times. As the saying goes: Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. Teacher Zhang's performance at the dinner just now was the best advertising.
"A course of treatment costs millions, are you sure?" Zhang Wen asked.
He would definitely not sell the fruits from the fairyland at a low price.
"Sure!"
Bai Lu answered without hesitation and very straightforwardly.
Zhang Wen looked at Bai Xiaohua, who remained calm, with some surprise, thinking that he had underestimated the assets of celebrities.
"Okay, I'll let you know as soon as I gather all the herbs and prepare the medicinal soup."
"Thank you, Teacher Zhang." Bai Lu said in a sweet voice, as if he had gotten a great deal.
Gao Yue, who was standing by, looked at Xiao Lu holding the man's arm intimately, and couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart.
She couldn't explain what that feeling was, but she just didn't want to see the two of them so close.
"Xiaolu!"
Gao Yue reached out and pulled Bai Lu to her side, lowering her voice to warn him, "Be careful, don't get caught by the reporters."
Bai Lu finally came back to his senses from his joy and looked around reflexively. When he didn't see any reporters, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although there was nothing going on between her and Teacher Zhang, the entertainment reporters wouldn't think so. Once they were photographed by them, they would definitely exaggerate and write nonsense.
In fact, she was not afraid of what the reporter wrote, but she was worried that it would bring trouble to Teacher Zhang. If Teacher Zhang's information was dug out by the omnipotent netizens, wouldn't it affect Teacher Zhang's daily life?
"Teacher Zhang, it's getting late. Should I take you home?" Bai Lu asked.
"No!" Gao Yue said immediately.
Bai Lu and Zhang Wen looked over at the same time, their eyes full of confusion.
The two people had surprisingly similar ideas and both felt that this matter had nothing to do with Agent Gao.
Gao Yue felt embarrassed by being stared at, and realized that her reaction was too strong, so she coughed to cover up her embarrassment, and then explained: "Xiao Lu, your car is likely to be followed by reporters, so I'd better take Teacher Zhang home." Bai Lu thought about it, and it was indeed the case.
But is this really the only reason?
She looked at Sister Yue suspiciously, and when she saw her eyes occasionally glancing in Teacher Zhang's direction, she immediately understood everything.
No wonder Sister Yue reacted so strongly just now. A good thing has been delayed. Who wouldn’t be anxious?
"Okay, Sister Yue, you send Teacher Zhang off." Bai Lu said with a smile, his eyes full of ambiguity when he looked at the agent.
Gao Yue felt uncomfortable being stared at, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only turn her head away and pretend not to see it.
Zhang Wen took the folding electric bike out of Bai Lu's commercial vehicle and placed it in the trunk of Gao Yue's car. Just as he was about to say goodbye to Bai Lu, he suddenly thought of something. He looked at Bai Xiaohua seriously and said, "When you're trying to attract investment in the future, remember to call me. I may not be able to convince investors with my words, but I can convince them with my advice."
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, but I think with Boss Wu's 80 million, plus the money from the company, we should have enough money to make the TV series. How about this? I'll have someone make a budget tomorrow. If it's not enough, I'll contact you again."
"Ah."
Zhang Wen didn't say anything else, turned around and got into the car of the leg expert.
Bai Lu got into his business car and suddenly rolled down the window. He looked at Gao Yue outside and said, "Sister Yue, Teacher Zhang has drunk a lot of alcohol. You have to take good care of him."
Gao Yue thought of the empty wine bottles on the dining table when he entered the private room, and nodded solemnly.
Bai Lu smiled and thought to himself, Sister Yue, Sister Yue, I've given you this opportunity, please don't waste it.
Gao Yue got into her car and glanced at the man sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror. Seeing that he had his eyes closed, she thought that he was feeling uncomfortable because he had drunk too much, so she hurriedly got out of the car, went to a nearby pharmacy, bought a box of hangover medicine, and then returned to the car.
"Here, a hangover medicine. Drink it and you won't feel so bad."
As he said this, he handed an opened bottle of oral liquid to the man in the back row.
"I don't feel uncomfortable." Zhang Wen said after hearing this.
He was simply wondering, now that the funding for the TV series was secured, shouldn't he pay the copyright fees? What would be an appropriate amount of copyright fees?
"Drink it, it won't do you any harm!" Gao Yue said firmly.
Zhang Wen looked at the stern face of the leg spirit and was too lazy to explain to him, so he took the bottle and drank it.
After seeing this, Gao Yue's expression relaxed. He smiled, fastened his seat belt, started the car and left the hotel.
After more than ten minutes, the car slowly stopped.
Zhang Wen opened his eyes and saw that they had arrived at the training center. He immediately opened the door and got out of the car, taking the electric bike out of the trunk.
Although I didn't make much money as a designated driver, I was able to secure the funds needed to shoot the TV series and also found a buyer for Xiantao, so my work was not in vain.
He was about to leave when he suddenly thought of someone. He reached out and knocked on the passenger window and said to the woman sitting in the driver's seat, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Gao Yue said with a smile.
When she accidentally looked at herself in the rearview mirror, her expression froze and she couldn't help but think of what Xiaolu had said to her during the day.
A person's emotions will only be rich when facing someone he likes.
She didn't know what she looked like before, but the smiling face in the mirror was very unfamiliar, at least she had never seen it in a mirror or a photo.
Is this what love is?
Looking at the man's back as he turned and left, she suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart. She didn't want to separate so soon and wanted to chat for a few more minutes.
"and many more!"
After Gao Yue finished shouting, she suddenly covered her mouth with her hands, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and her cheeks unconsciously turned red.
She just wanted to chat, but she hadn't thought about what to talk about.
"Is there something wrong?" Zhang Wen turned around and looked at the woman in the car in confusion.
"Uh……"
Gao Yue opened her mouth, and suddenly saw the folding electric bike in the man's hand, so she asked, "Why are you still out driving so late? Isn't the money you earn enough to spend now?"
The special training fee is 30,000 yuan, and the psychological treatment fee is 200,000 yuan. The other party obviously has so many ways to make money, why does he still go out to drive a car to earn a few dozen dollars?
Although it was a topic that she thought of on the spur of the moment, she was still very confused.
Even if the other party was paying off his father's debts, the money he earned recently was more than enough to pay off the debts.
"I couldn't sleep at night, so I came out to earn some extra money. Who would complain about having too much money?" Zhang Wen said truthfully.
Gao Yue was stunned after hearing this.
Can't the hypnotist himself sleep?
If I hadn't heard the feedback from many patients, I would have known that the other person was a liar based on what he said.
"Are you worried about something that's why you can't sleep?" Gao Yue asked, with deep concern in her voice.
He can hypnotize others but cannot hypnotize himself. Suddenly I feel so sorry for this man.
Zhang Wen touched his nose. He couldn't say that it was because he ate too many fairy peaches that he didn't need so much sleep, right?
Although it is the truth, who would believe it if I tell it to others?
And this is his secret. Whether he can go from a millionaire to a multi-millionaire depends entirely on the fairy peach soup.
"Yeah, I'm worried about something." Zhang Wen admitted casually.
At this moment, he just wanted to get back to the training center as soon as possible, activate the Star God's blessing, and see if he could draw the fairy peach.
Gao Yue didn't expect that she had guessed it right. She looked at the man and asked, "Can you tell me about it? Maybe I can help you."
Although she doesn't know hypnosis and can't meditate, speaking out what's in her heart is always the right way to relieve it, and she is willing to be the one who listens quietly.
Of course, in addition to wanting to help him relieve his worries, she also wanted to know more about this man.
what?
Zhang Wen was stunned, wondering what was wrong with Leg Beauty tonight? Was she not going home to sleep at 1 a.m., playing the role of a caring big sister outside?
My biggest worry is that I don’t know how many incense sticks my great-grandfather needs to ascend to heaven. Now I have more than 800,000 incense sticks, but my great-grandfather still stays in the Wenqu Pagoda.
But can this be told?
No!
If I say it, won’t people think I’m crazy?
But since the other person wants to be a confidant big sister, if I don’t say anything, wouldn’t I be letting her down?
Thinking of this, he returned to the passenger side, leaned against the car and said, "I'm not a child anymore, and I don't even have a girlfriend. I toss and turn at night, unable to sleep alone. Can you help me solve this problem?"
He thought of Boss Wu's beautiful legs as a pillow, and he also wanted to sleep with them as a pillow.
Gao Yue's whole body trembled, and her face turned red again, and this time the red area was larger.
In fact, she had thought about many things that the other person might have, such as the training center and his work in the company.
I just never thought it was because I didn’t have a girlfriend.
Is it because you can’t sleep because you don’t have a girlfriend?
"What's the point of telling me this kind of thing? I can't help you solve it." Gao Yue turned her head away and didn't look at the man outside the car.
"Didn't you ask me to say that?" Zhang Wen rolled his eyes.
"I mean about work."
"You know how capable I am at work. I've been working for so long, and there's never been a problem I couldn't solve. How could I possibly lose sleep over work?"
"..."
Gao Yue bit her lips tightly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Zhang Wen was a little disappointed. As he left, he muttered quietly, "I thought you could introduce me to some girlfriends."
"???"
Gao Yue's face was filled with shock.
Introduce a few girlfriends?
What kind of nonsense are you talking about?
It's not like she hasn't seen people who have multiple relationships at the same time, but this person is the first one who dares to say it openly.
Zhang Wen didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he said. After all, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
There are so many single beauties in the world who long for outstanding men, and only he can save them.
