At noon, Lian Xiaomin took everyone to the "Shenglong Restaurant" in Causeway Bay for lunch.

This was opened by Mr. Song. There are four stores in Hong Kong, and this is the head office.

As soon as I entered the door, Brother Money, Song Ye’s confidant, came to greet me.

"Amin, long time no see!" Su Meilie greeted Brother Money, and everyone went into a private room.

Lian Xiaomin drank tea and ordered a lot of delicious food. While waiting for the dishes, Lian Xiaomin asked.

"Brother Money, how did you run the restaurant so well? Can you tell me a little bit about your management methods? I am also running the Jade Restaurant."

"Haha, I've told you all the details, so what should I do? I'm kidding, just pick the best location, make delicious food, and business will come naturally!"

"...Anyway, the shop is ours, and we don't have to pay rent, which gives us an advantage over others."

Lian Xiaomin nodded and chatted with him for a few words, and then the other party went out to do something.

Luo Wen, Alan and Su Meili were eating their desserts before dinner.

"Boss Lian, I heard that the company is going to invest in a few new dramas. Can Allen and I play a role in the same drama?"

Lian Xiaomin smiled and replied, "Of course, you all have roles, especially Allen. He's so handsome, he's more suitable for acting in urban dramas. This will give him some practice."

Alan always reminded her of Wen Zhaolun from TVB in her previous life, who was a really good singer and perhaps even better at acting.

He did not debut from an artist training class, but was discovered by Lian Xiaomin while singing at the Jindi Nightclub in Abin. He then signed a contract with Yinchao Records together with Su Meilie.

Give it a try! Maybe he is really as awesome as Sir Wen~

Lian Xiaomin asked the four people about their daily lives. Among them, Su Meili developed the best. She is now filming and singing, and has become a real rising star.

"Mei Li, do you still live in Bowlan Street?"

"Yes, I was able to buy that rented house thanks to the money you gave me. My mother is in poor health, but my brother is doing very well and is now in high school."

After Su Meilie signed the contract with the company, she moved to the "Dream Building" on Admiralty Road in Central. Many of the company's artists lived here.

This is the most expensive piece of land among Lian Xiaomin’s real estate investments.

I bought it from the HSBC Bank in Central for HK$28 million when I had just returned from rescuing people in London and was at my wealthiest.

She made a lot of money in London, and it was easy to spend it lavishly.

There was also a 15-story building on the land, which was later renamed "Dreamland Building" and managed by William. Part of it was reserved for the TV company's contracted artists to live in, and part of it was rented out.

Now that they are all artists, many people from poor families must have a decent place to live and cannot go back to the "slums".

This is also "packaging", a necessity for creating stars.

After dinner, Luo Wen and Alan left first. Su Meilie had her own car and had nothing to do this afternoon, so she planned to drive back home to see her family.

Lian Xiaomin chatted with her as they walked: "I have some beautiful clothes in my car that I brought back from England. I packed them in two bags and will give them to you to wear when you go back."

She often looked for imported fashion brands at the space's docks, picked out some retro styles that were fashionable in the 1970s, and gave them to the company's artists for "styling".

The company has a special planning department that is responsible for these matters and manages the artists' daily attire and life details.

When these clothes leave this space, their logos and obvious markings will be automatically removed, and they will not be exposed as coming from the future year 2023.

Su Meili was very happy and followed her to the car to get it.

The company must not have allocated many new clothes to them, but Lian Xiaomin gave her two big bags at once. Which pretty girl doesn’t like beautiful clothes!

Lian Xiaomin opened the car door, took out two large bags from the back seat, and put them into Su Meiling's car next to her.

She looked at the beautiful girl in front of her with long flowing hair, who was 21 years old and in her prime, and suddenly thought of the domineering actress "He Lili" whom she met in Repulse Bay Road, and became thoughtful.

"Meili, you don't need to live in Dream Tower anymore. Why don't you just move to Repulse Bay? I have a unit in Emerald Garden. You can live in one of them first."

That was a gift from Mr. Song to express his gratitude for saving her life.

Each room is 135 square meters with sea view.

She gave one set each to Sun Xuefeng, Sun Qingping and Zheng Ying, and nine sets were left unused.

Su Meili was stunned: "Ah? It's the original 'Cuizhen Garden' developed by the leader, Mr. Song? Is it really for me to live in?"

This community is very famous and the scenery is absolutely beautiful!

Everyone in the company knew that Director Sun and Teacher Zheng both lived there. Once, she and a few other actors including Miao Weijie went to visit Director Sun's home.

"Well, if you have nothing to do this afternoon, you can move in. You'll live downstairs from Sun Xuefeng, in Building 1, Room 5A. I'll have William send someone to deliver the key this afternoon."

"Do you know that He Lili also lives in Repulse Bay Road? You can't let her overshadow you. Haha, I will definitely make you more famous than her, don't worry."

Lian Xiaomin patted her good friend's shoulder, and Su Meilie became very excited.

Wow, the boss gave her house to me to live in. Who wouldn’t want to live in such a nice place? I feel like I finally feel like a big star!

In the first few years after signing the contract, even if you seem very popular, you will not get much salary according to the contract. This is the case in this industry.

After all, it takes a lot of investment for a company to package a newcomer. It is said that TVB artists are paid even less, far worse than "Future".

Therefore, Su Meili has no savings until now. All the money she earned was given to her family. After deducting her daily expenses, there is almost nothing left, and she has no money to buy a house.

However, once one's career develops smoothly, the future will be limitless and will get better and better.

She is very confident and has never worried about finances.

After all, it's already very lucky to be able to sign a contract with such a good company. It's a hundred times better than being in a gang and following Bing Ge in a nightclub.

"Okay, then I'll move this afternoon. Boss Lian, thank you for posting! Haha, from now on, He Lili and I will meet again on Repulse Bay Road~"

Watching Su Meili driving away excitedly, Lian Xiaomin also got into her own car.

She thought to herself that Su Meili's life was actually quite difficult, and it was only now getting better. Her experience was a bit similar to that of the movie star Mei she knew in her previous life.

I heard from Lu Guanjie that Abin, the boss of Xin Yi'an in Causeway Bay, has always secretly liked Su Meili.

He originally wanted to pursue her, but she suddenly became an artist with a bright future. He felt that his status would affect her, so he quietly put away his love.

Brother Bin is Mr. Song’s godson, a good brother of Lawrence Lu, and is also familiar with Lian Xiaomin.

No wonder he has never had a girlfriend. He is one year older than Lawrence Lu and has been single ever since he met this person.
