Chapter 1582
Little White Rabbit
Zhang Yuan carefully examined the young lady.
He pondered the situation for a moment.
Huang Baiming said he wanted me to attend a high-end gathering so that I could resolve the conflict with Liang Ting in person.
It seems to be just an excuse.
The main topic should be the person in front of us.
Was it Huang Baiming who was in charge, or the woman in front of him who was acting like a little white rabbit?
What do they want to do?
Zhang Yuan's mind raced, and he felt the best course of action was to turn the tables on them.
He pretended that he didn't know what they had done and that it was just a chance encounter.
Do you speak Cantonese?
"Just a little bit," Zhang Yuan said casually to the other person.
“You can all speak Mandarin, okay? Please take care of our new friend,” the girl said to the rich kids around her.
"We're used to it."
"This is Hong Kong, we should speak Cantonese."
Several people answered.
The little girl pouted, looking dissatisfied.
Zhang Yuan chuckled inwardly, "You have too many kids; not everyone has the face to be proud of."
Only a handful of people can still maintain their dignity after leaving home.
"It's alright, don't worry about me, you can all do as you please."
He couldn't be bothered to listen to the pointless chatter of these good-for-nothings.
It's all about sports cars, picking up girls, and which newly opened nightclub is the best.
"I'll go take a look around."
“Then I’ll go with you.” The young lady ignored his friends and followed him.
"Ignore them, they're boring." She first muttered a complaint under her breath, then smiled with her eyes crinkling, and asked with great interest.
"It's more interesting for you guys to be movie stars."
"Can you tell me about some interesting things that happen in your work?"
“No problem. Have you heard of the top 10 terrifying legends in the film and television industry?” Zhang Yuan smiled very healthily.
From the black cat passing by the camera to the easily disappearing wig.
And the new props, the ones that disappeared... they're all at his house.
A female film school student went missing in the middle of the night... and he carried her home.
These are all constantly being updated and improved.
The girl listened, sometimes feigning fear, sometimes feigning surprise.
They were fully engaged throughout and performed flawlessly as listeners.
And when listening to a story, they will look at the other person intently, making eye contact.
At the same time, as communication increases and the content progresses, especially when discussing scary or interesting parts, the conversation continues.
The other person would sometimes cover their mouth and chuckle softly, and occasionally flick their hair with their fingers, releasing a hint of expensive perfume.
She would also pat his arm with her hand to indicate "I hate it" or "It's funny".
Not only was the emotional value maximized, but also a few more restrained physical contacts were gradually added.
This gradual unfolding of charm, coupled with her status as a young lady from a wealthy family and her relatively high level of attractiveness among ordinary people.
Most men, especially those not particularly emotionally driven, would have lost their composure on the spot.
You become the other party's dog directly.
Zhang Yuan was naturally not buying it, especially since he was already on guard.
By setting a good example and criticizing friends, they conveniently have an excuse to chat with me alone.
Despite her young age, she's quite capable.
Four words came to mind.
Stunned.
"You're such a good storyteller."
"I thought you were the cool, quiet type of guy."
"So, do you prefer someone who doesn't talk much, or someone who does?" Zhang Yuan asked softly.
“They’re all good.” The girl said, then tilted her head slightly in thought, “But something interesting is better.”
"You're interesting too."
"Thank you. Have you ever been to Macau?" the girl asked.
"I haven't been there much."
"Next time you have the chance to go to Macau, I'll be your tour guide."
As she spoke, she took out her phone.
"Okay." Zhang Yuan wrote down the other party's number.
The girl immediately asked him to dial the number for her and save it.
He appears gentle in his actions, but is actually very proactive and has a strong sense of purpose… Zhang Yuan thought to himself.
"Do you like coffee?" the other person asked after putting away their phone.
"good."
"I know a nice coffee shop. Want to grab a drink sometime tomorrow?"
"I want to hear more stories."
She then whispered furtively, "I've always wanted to be an artist, but my family won't let me."
"It's enough to just hear your story."
After saying that, she smiled sweetly, still looking like an adorable rabbit.
Zhang Yuan agreed, and the other party smiled and nodded, then said goodbye and left to chat with other friends, no longer bothering him.
His ability to control the situation perfectly demonstrates his skill.
Zhang Yuan looked at the woman in her pink dress and downed his glass of white wine in one gulp.
He turned to look for Huang Baiming and Liang Ting.
"How have you considered my proposal?"
For Zhang Yuan, dealing with her wouldn't be difficult, but it's better to avoid trouble.
"But even if the artist goes to your company, I still want a share of the profits."
"Including Xin Zhilei!"
"Okay, I'll give you part of the brokerage fee, but you have to terminate the contract amicably, without going to court or asking for a termination fee."
"Fine!" the other party said through gritted teeth.
Things that can be solved with money are minor issues.
Clap clap clap... Huang Baiming clapped his hands with a smile: "Great, from now on we're all friends."
"By the way, how was your chat, you young people?"
"Not bad," Zhang Yuan replied calmly, "but I've been very busy these past few days, and I'm a little tired."
"Now that things are settled, I'll be leaving."
"Please say hello to my master for me."
After saying that, he placed the wine glass on the waiter's tray and then left gracefully.
Much later, as the banquet was drawing to a close.
The young lady walked around the venue several times, but couldn't find the person she wanted to see.
"That's not right?"
"He's gone?"
The girl frowned, deep in thought. Why is this different from my script?
Zhang Yuan had already finished showering and was lying on the hotel bed.
"Are you trying to play hard to get with me?"
"I'll show you what Cinderella is like, disappearing without a trace at the party."
He muttered to himself with a wicked grin.
He wants to play high-level games with me.
He held his laptop, investigating the other party's information.
In terms of appearance, they are considered above average in their family.
He's not very tall, has a small frame, and doesn't look imposing.
Ever since Miss Jiang got him hooked up with her and then dumped him, he's been very cautious about young women.
But we have a general idea.
"Lets see."
He didn't intend to refuse, after all, the other party was also a powerful figure behind him.
He put away his computer and called Xin Zhilei.
"I've taken care of it."
"The other party will not sue you; the contract will be terminated peacefully."
“I will share your new contract with her and give her a portion of the brokerage fee.”
"Huh?" The girl with thick lips was naturally surprised after hearing this.
She's been so nervous these past few days that she's practically chewed the skin off her fingers.
Unexpectedly, my new boss resolved the matter with a single move.
Moreover, it was done in a subtle and gradual way, rather than the imagined "rivers of blood".
Is this what true strength is?
"Huh? What is it?"
"Just focus on your work."
"Understood, thank you," the cautious man replied.
I called Xiao Zhao again.
"Liying, you should make some preparations recently."
"Director Zhang Yimou's new film is in preparation."
"I plan to have you study under Gong Li and Chen Daoming."
After hearing this, Xiao Zhao had only one reaction.
what?
Me?
"Can...can I do it?"
Even over the phone, he could feel the girl clenching her fists and contorting her face.
"If I say you can do it, then you can."
"If it doesn't work out, Director Zhang will fire you."
"Don't embarrass me."
"Okay...okay," she stammered, feeling extremely uneasy.
Zhang Yuan knew that this girl was soft on the outside but tough on the inside.
With a round head and face, delicate features, and a rather憨憨 (simple and honest) smile.
But he has a lot on his mind and many things to deal with.
In Zhang Yimou's new film "Coming Home," the second female lead is a daughter who is somewhat rebellious but strong-willed, which matches her personality.
As for skills, how can you develop them without practice?
I believe you can learn something.
"Hmm..." This person's tone was already a little choked up, unable to believe that they would have this opportunity.
That's Zhang Yimou!
She was still too young to even imagine this.
Are you flattering me too much?
They've arranged for me to play a lead role in a TV series, and now they're putting me in a major production.
A sense of unworthiness arose deep within this girl.
They are the exact opposite of people like Zhang Ziyi.
[Received a thank you from Zhao Liying, digestion ability increased by 2!]
Zhang Yuan: ...
You... never mind, the child is still growing.
"I'll talk to Gong Li later and ask her to help me."
"Zhao Liying has a good personality, so the senior shouldn't dislike her."
"Chen Daomin is a bit difficult to deal with. I have to take care of this girl. Remember to be the straight man when the uncle is bragging."
"Stop exposing other people's true colors. Your words are like knives, always cutting to the heart."
These are all people I've cultivated little by little, so naturally I have to take care of my trusted confidants.
I went out for coffee with my little girl this afternoon.
"It tastes very good." He put down his coffee cup.
That's right, over a thousand for a cup.
"When I go abroad to film, I like to bring back local coffee beans as gifts."
"Really? Me too!" The person immediately raised their head: "I never thought I would have a common interest with a big star."
“If I were a big star, then according to our family background, you should be a princess,” Zhang Yuan retorted.
"No, my family is very strict, and we've never had the concept of a princess."
"I originally wanted to study art in college, but my mom insisted that I study accounting."
Zhang Yuan felt that this statement was half true and half false.
Learning a skill is tantamount to voluntarily giving up the opportunity to enter the core.
Fight for as much as you can.
Throughout history, the struggle for succession has always been an extremely cruel affair.
The same applies to children in large families vying for power.
This depends on Old Master Huo. He directly imposed restrictions, prohibiting everyone except the eldest son from engaging in business or participating in family management.
You should just accept your dividends honestly.
If it's purely based on primogeniture and the legitimate heir, no one can say anything about it.
Zhang Yuan, on the other hand, found out the other party's educational background.
I just graduated from the University of London with a master's degree.
At only 20 years old, she has already graduated with a master's degree from a top overseas university, which shows that she skipped grades from a young age.
Their intelligence is definitely not bad.
After graduation, my family arranged an internship for me.
Countless top students would fight tooth and nail to get in.
She can get in right after graduation.
Therefore, her mother raised her with the hope that she would develop certain management skills.
Their ambitions are probably quite large.
So……
Zhang Yuan thought to himself.
She's not just after me, she's after my money too! (End of Chapter)
