Chapter 463 Goodbye Sinne-Sara

The person who came to see Xiao Peng from France 5 TV was actually an old friend, Sine Sala, the host of France 5 who had filmed the documentary with Fabian.

"Xinnai, long time no see!" Xiao Peng hugged Xinnai: "Why are you here?"

Xine laughed and said, "You still remember me! I thought you had forgotten me!"

Xiao Peng said, "How could I possibly forget a beauty like you? Let's not stay on the boat anymore. Let's go. I'll buy you a cup of coffee!"

"I'd rather have a couple of drinks!" Xine said, "I'm still impressed by the mussels we had together last time, and the aniseed wine there."

Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Are you talking about the 'St. Louis Seafood Cooking Class'? It just so happens that I haven't eaten there in a while. Wait a minute, I'll call there and book a table. Walter, drive my car out and return Fabian's RV to him!"

Walter nodded: "Okay, boss!"

'St. Louis Seafood Production Church' was the place where Xiao Peng had his first meal with Fabian and Pascal. Sinne was also there, as was a photographer. However, the photographer's attitude towards Xiao Peng was not very good and he was eventually kicked out by the Marseilles in the restaurant. Sinne was also very embarrassed there that day. Xiao Peng thought she would never want to go there again, but unexpectedly she proposed to go there again.

It was still early when they arrived and there were not many people in the restaurant. The boss came over and greeted Xiao Peng warmly before leading them to their seats.

Xinnei was taken aback: "I remember you didn't like the seafood here very much."

Xiao Peng nodded. "That's true, but Fabian and Pascal really like to eat here. So whenever we're in Marseille, we come here every week to eat. We've become familiar with the boss, and now we've gotten used to it after eating here so often."

Xinnei sighed, "It's only been a short time! You've changed so much! When I first met you, you were just an ordinary diver!"

Xiao Peng smiled and said, "But you haven't changed. You are still as beautiful as ever."

Xinnei's expression darkened after hearing this: "I'm getting old. Every morning when I wake up and look at myself in the mirror, I get scared."

Xiao Peng looked at Xin Nai: "Huh? Where's that confident French Channel 5 anchor Xin Nai that I knew?"

Xin Nei sighed and said, "Xiao, please stop making fun of me. What ace anchor? Several of my programs have been canceled, and now I've retreated to the second line. In fact, saying I've retreated to the second line is just bragging. I'm already on the verge of retirement."

Xiao Peng was stunned: "Ah? How could this happen?"

"That's normal," Xine said. "Young, beautiful women are always more competitive in this industry. It's not easy for me to persist until this age, and it's also related to my work at France 5. If it were France 1 or 2, I would have been relegated to the sidelines long ago."

Xiao Peng comforted him, "Don't take it so seriously. Now's a good time to get back together with your family, isn't it? Fabian said your husband's cooking skills are top-notch."

Xine said, "You're really not nice. You didn't even look for me when you went to Paris!"

Xiao Peng was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses: "Oh, I only stayed in Paris for a few days last time."

"Such big news came out in just a few days?" Xinnei said.

"Big news?" Xiao Peng was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses. "Oh, you mean the charity reception? I hadn't planned on doing that. It was just the right thing to do at the right time and place."

Xin Nei stared at Xiao Peng for a long time, then shook his head and said, "After seeing you, I was wondering what I've done in the past two years. In such a short time, you've become a billionaire, while I'm on the verge of unemployment."

Xiao Peng laughed and said, "You can't say that. The reason I was like this is because I was extremely poor in the beginning. I had nothing and could only rush forward. Whatever I rushed into was what I ended up with."

Xinnei looked at Xiao Peng with a suddenly gentle and affectionate gaze. She said slowly, "If I had known this would happen, I should have taken you down right away. They say a man without a career is a potential stock, but how many truly have that much potential? And I actually missed the biggest one!"

After hearing this, Xiao Peng quickly said, "Xinnai, stop it! We're friends! Let's not play tricks. You definitely didn't come all this way here just to reminisce about the past. If there's anything you want to say, why don't we just talk it out?"

Xinnei's eyes were slightly disappointed after hearing this. She ate a piece of iced mussel gracefully to hide her disappointment, then said to Xiao Peng, "Xiao, you're right. I did come here to ask for your help. I heard that you and Fabian are planning to invest in a documentary?"

After hearing what Sinne said, Xiao Peng finally understood the extent of his marginalization. Fabian was in Paris discussing the filming of this documentary with Channel 5, while Sinne had only heard about it.

"Yes, but this time is different from last time. It's about 'selling movies' rather than 'cooperation'," said Xiao Peng.

Fabian's last collaboration with France 5 was a 'collaboration'.

At the time, he had little money and only Pascal as an investor, so he asked France 5 to provide some funds and personnel. Siné was one of the personnel sent by France 5. France 5 also owns the documentary produced.

Now that they have enough money, they are going to make the film themselves, that is, they will shoot the documentary first and then sell it. Fabian went to the French TV station not to seek investment but to hire people, such as photographers, lighting technicians, and makeup artists.

Although it is a documentary, these people are still necessary.

"Yes, we are planning to shoot a documentary about the Battle of Heligoland Bight. It is said that forgetting history is equal to betrayal. We want more young people to remember history." Xiao Peng said in an official tone.

After hearing this, Xin Nei pondered for a moment and said, "Xiao, with all due respect, this documentary won't be popular. You might lose everything you put into it."

Xiao Peng smiled and said, "We Chinese believe in 'when poor, take care of yourself; when rich, benefit the world.' This means that when you're poor and frustrated, you should cultivate your own moral character, and when you're wealthy, you should strive to benefit the world. Fabian and I both experienced hardship, and now that we're wealthy, we want to leave something for the public. That's why we're planning to make a documentary like this. Even if we lose money, we lose money. There are always things in this world that are more important than money, right? Xine, why do you ask this?"

After a moment's thought, Sinner said directly, "I need a job. I want to be the interviewer for this documentary. I'll do anything for this job."
