Andy Lau smiled and said, "President Shen is indeed a great talent."

"Stop flattering me. I just happened to get a project in Lujiazui, and I'm planning to turn it into the most luxurious and high-end super-luxury residential area in China. How about you endorse it for me and I'll give you an apartment in return?"

Andy Lau was taken aback when he heard this: "Huh?" But he immediately nodded: "No, no problem."

Wang Zhongjun narrowed his eyes: "President Shen, I heard from Brother Ye that the deal you're involved in this time is close to 30 billion, is that true?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present gasped in astonishment. 30 billion?! Holy crap! That's incredibly wealthy.

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Yes, that's true, but I didn't do it alone. Brother Ye really has a quick tongue."

Wang Zhongjun stroked his chin: "President Shen, you're really capable. But do you think there's great potential in the real estate sector?"

"Just playing around. I wasn't planning on playing on such a big plate, but Miss He thought one plate was too small to share, so she made a big one. I just wanted to play a round too."

Wang Zhongjun was speechless. Money really talks!

Feng Kuzi, with a fawning smile, said, "President Chen, you're really something! Goodness, the Chinese people have only just started to live a little better, and you're already running a 30 billion yuan project. You've really broadened our horizons. If I buy a house from you, could you give me a discount?"

Shen Fang smiled and said, "How about I give you a 50% discount? Director Feng, as long as you make this movie well, I'll give you the cost price after the project is completed."

Li Lianhua's eyes were practically bulging with desire. She wanted to steal the female lead role this time. After Liu Ruoying was dumped, she thought her chance had come, but then Zeng Li suddenly appeared and snatched the lead role away. This was all thanks to the support of Shen Fang, her sugar daddy.

She does have a sugar daddy, but he's not quite as powerful. Now she's thinking of finding a new one. After all, he's young, handsome, rich, and has so much influence in the entertainment industry. If she could hook up with him, she'd be set on a pedestal.

"You said it yourself, 50% off."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "I said it. Come on everyone, I just finished class and I'm starving."

The group began to toast and exchange drinks.

After eating some hot pot, Shen Fang looked at Director Feng and said, "If it's not too much trouble for this shoot, I'd like to come along too. I'm currently practicing filming, and I'd like to learn some skills from you, Director Feng. You don't mind, do you?"

Feng Kuzi waved his hands repeatedly: "No problem, no problem. It would be a great honor for our crew if you were willing to come. Um, I remember that you, President Shen, are from the acting department, right?"

Zeng Li was overjoyed. Going along was fantastic! She could film and date with her lover at the same time—it sounded wonderful! Normally, this would mean being away for several months, and she'd only just started dating. She'd definitely be reluctant to leave for such a long filming trip. But acting was her job, something she'd worked hard for years to achieve. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Now she could have it all—how could Zeng Li not be overjoyed?

"Hey, I was originally planning to go to the directing department, but Wang Guangtou insisted that I was good-looking and that not going to the acting department would be an insult to his career. He forcibly dragged me into the Beijing Film Academy. At the time, I was also planning to go to the Central Academy of Drama."

Feng Kuzi looked bewildered: "Is that so?"

Everyone else was stunned. Who could force you, boss?

“That’s right, I was there at the time.” Huang Bo testified for Shen Fang.

"However, Mr. Shen, I must say that your figure and face are indeed suitable for being an actor. You are incredibly handsome, much more so than Lu Yi from 'Never Close Your Eyes' back then," Feng Kuzi commented.

Shen Fang offered cigarettes to the group: "I'm a boss, I own a media company, so I'm really not suited to be an actor."

Feng Kuzi, the straight man, said, "That's right, it's such a waste of his talent."

"Besides, I really like film art, so I wanted to pursue this career and make something that I like. That's why I switched majors and wanted to study properly. That's why I came to you to learn from your experience."

"Don't worry, I will teach you everything I know. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me, and I'll explain it to you thoroughly."

Shen Fang raised his glass and smiled, "Then thank you very much, Director Feng."

Feng Kuzi grinned, looking as happy as if he wanted to bite someone, and drank with Shen Fang. The big boss was getting close to him, which meant he would have more leverage in the future. Compared to Shen Fang, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei were not even in the same league. Getting on good terms with this guy would bring many benefits.

After lunch, everyone dispersed.

Inside Zeng Li's villa.

"It's alright." Shen Fang looked at the house's decoration. It was quite stylish, purely Chinese style, and looked very grand. There were many paintings and calligraphy, as well as a lot of bouquets, giving it a scholarly atmosphere.

Zeng Li handed the freshly brewed teacup to Chen Fang. Looking at her lover with a smile, she said, "It's alright, isn't it? I fell in love with the decor at first sight and bought it for 18.5 million."

Chen Fang sipped his fragrant tea: "I'm glad you like it. The decoration of this house suits your temperament."

What kind of temperament do I have?

Shen Fang gently stroked Zeng Li's delicate nose: "Scholarly, well-bred, Buddhist-like, dignified and elegant."

Zeng Li said shyly, "I'm not as good as you say."

Shen Fang hugged Zeng Li: "You are just that perfect in my heart."

"I'll go with you to the film set, aren't you happy?"

Zeng Li leaned against Shen Fang's chest, nodded, and gave him a sweet kiss, lightly pecking his cheek like a dragonfly skimming the water: "Of course I'm happy! I was worried that I would miss you terribly after not seeing you for several months, and whether you would come to visit me on set. Now it's all good, you'll come with me."
