"Shen, you value James Wan highly?" Ivanka was a little confused as to why Shen Fang would choose James Wan. There are plenty of directors out there, so it doesn't matter who you choose to direct. Shen Fang secretly chose an unknown person.

Shen Fang remained silent, inwardly chuckling. "Just wait until the movie comes out, and you'll see what true awesomeness is," he thought. Known as an industry genius with a Midas touch, he never misses a beat when directing or producing. Saw, The Conjuring, Annabelle—he's an absolute master of horror. He's also worked on many blockbusters, including Fast & Furious 7, DC epics like Fatal Sense, and others—all box office hits worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Most importantly, this guy has no scandals, no other hobbies than making movies, and he's of Chinese descent. A truly exceptional tool.

With the groundwork laid, the rest will be done steadily, starting with low-budget productions. Once successful, success will follow, and accumulating accolades will be the next step. Chen Fang isn't playing the co-production game of launching a fleet of ships at sea—that's too low-class, too difficult to control, and too likely to backfire. What he wants is to plant the dragon flag of Longteng on American soil and become a dazzling star.

So when Ivanka proposed to come to DragonMotion, Chen Fang agreed immediately after considering it for 30 seconds. The Trump family has a very deep foundation in the United States, especially with very deep relationships with senior executives of the Democratic Party. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to reach that position. Having Ivanka as their representative can save a lot of problems.

"Ivanka, I'm going back to the US tomorrow. Director Zhang and the others will stay in the US. I'll leave the Oscars PR for Heroes to you."

Ivanka glanced at Chen Fang.

"You're leaving just as I'm taking office today?"

Shen Fang smiled and said, "There's no way around it, school is about to start, and I have to go back to register."

Ivanka? School starts? Are you kidding me?

Shen Fang grinned mischievously: "I'm still an 18-year-old freshman."

Ivanka... at 18, looks like this?? I'm totally captivated.

"You're so comfortable leaving this to me? You're just going to leave like that?"

Shen Fang chuckled: "The funding is all from domestic allocations, and the projects will all go through my approval process. You are a young lady from a wealthy family, and your family will not allow you to do anything underhanded. Reputation is very important to you. Most importantly, I believe you can do this job exceptionally well. I haven't misjudged you. You are a natural leader."

"Let's have a drink," Shen Fang said, raising his glass.

Ivanka smiled as she looked at Chen Fang.

"Thank you for your trust. To be honest, your brainwashing methods are quite touching, but to truly move me, you need something genuine. Pay me more so I can work better."

Shen Fang chuckled: "Does the young lady need money?"

Ivanka nodded: "Of course, I'm not like Zhukova. I have a fixed allowance of $50,000 every month, and I spend most of it on luxury goods. These are essential for my social life, and they cost a lot. I don't actually have much money, and I often use my credit card."

Shen Fang... $50,000 is too little, okay. A young lady like her is a young lady indeed. She's comparable to Shen Lanlan. The only difference is that Shen Lanlan spends money on chasing girls, while Ivanka invests in herself and her appearance; their goals are different.

“Ivanka, I have some investment projects in collaboration with Goldman Sachs and other investment banks, which I'll be entrusting to you. However, due to the involvement of trade secrets, you'll need to sign a confidentiality agreement. If you're unwilling, I can find a different professional manager.”

Ivanka's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing this. She knew that Shen Fang had business dealings with Goldman Sachs. The driver who took Shen Fang to Goldman Sachs Capital that day told him about it after returning home. This was also an important reason why Ivanka wanted to get in touch with Shen Fang. Being able to cooperate with Goldman Sachs meant that they were among the very wealthy people.

Ivanka smiled as she looked at Shen Fang. If she took over Shen Fang's investment strategy, she would be entering this man's business. In time, it would be a piece of cake for her to be promoted to empress.

"I do."

Shen Fang stroked his chin without hesitation. "Tsk, this girl is interesting."

"I can help you manage your belongings, but there will be a fee."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Of course, I'll give you a raise."

"Chen, does entrusting your career to me mean you've fallen for me?"

"Tempted? I've always been tempted by you, Ivanka. You're so beautiful and charming, how could I not be tempted? But I'll say it again: I'm a responsible person. If they're with me, I'll be responsible for them for life. If you're willing, I can be your support too."

Hearing Shen Fang's words, Ivanka beamed. "Man, I'll definitely win you over." As for other women, well, Ivanka didn't care. She was confident that with her charm, her excellent work skills, and a few clever tricks, she could definitely win them over.

Little did she know, this was Shen Fang's little trick, a way to lure her into a trap, young lady.

After lunch, Shen Fang brought Ivanka to Goldman Sachs Capital, where Xu Xin and Jian had been waiting for a long time.

"Sister Xin, Jane, this is Ivanka. She will be in charge of my investment projects from now on."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xin frowned and said in Chinese, "Young boss, why did you hire a foreign girl? Is she reliable?"

Ivanka looked completely bewildered; she couldn't understand Chinese.

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Don't worry, she's a rich girl from a wealthy family. Her family is very powerful in America, and she's also interested in me. She's reliable."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xin instantly understood. Goodness, a honey trap! Getting a girl to manage your assets and make money for you, and a girl of this caliber at that—you're really something.
