"Of course not. If you don't believe me, Auntie, we can sign a contract first."
Hearing this, Lan Jieying's mother breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "Sir, thank you for thinking so highly of my daughter, Jieying."
"hehe!"
Chen Dong chuckled: "Auntie, you're joking. Lan Jieying also needs to be outstanding enough. Also, please don't call me boss anymore. Just call me Xiao Chen or Mr. Chen."
Upon hearing this, Yammie Lam excitedly grabbed Vivian Chow's hand, "Vivian, the boss just said he wants to sign a new movie contract with me. Is this true? Am I still dreaming?"
Before Zhou Huimin could answer.
On the side.
Chen Nan replied, "Although my younger brother is unreliable, he keeps his word, so you can rest assured."
Chen Nan was overjoyed, as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
Chen Dongchao rolled his eyes at his older sister. When had he ever been unreliable?
Could it be that I've been too good to her?
What makes her so reckless?
Chen Dong stroked his chin and couldn't help but think that he needed to give Lin Zhiyuan a bit more courage.
If Chen Nan knew that Chen Dong would think this way, he wouldn't know whether to cry or laugh.
It has to be said that the siblings have a really good relationship.
Otherwise, Chen Dong wouldn't have gone to such lengths to help Lin Zhiyuan.
At the same time.
A restaurant.
The hall was bustling with noise.
This is a long-established restaurant with decades of history in Hong Kong.
Locals from Hong Kong, as well as some tourists who come from afar, all visit this restaurant.
It is especially famous for its char siu bao (barbecued pork buns) and roast goose, and is a genuine, long-established Hong Kong-style restaurant.
Food was laid out on the table: red bean buns, shumai, braised chicken feet, roast goose...
Xiang Huaqiang, Uncle De, and Ouyang Ming took their seats.
At the other table were the bodyguards the group had brought.
Xiang Huaqiang kept moving his chopsticks up and down on the food without saying a word, looking like a starving ghost.
Uncle De and Ouyang Ming exchanged a glance. Uncle De coughed lightly, put down his chopsticks, and said with a smile, "Qiangzai, it's been a long time since you've had such authentic dim sum, hasn't it?"
"Uh-huh....."
Xiang Huaqiang chewed his food and mumbled to the two men, "Uncle De, and you two too, eat some. Don't just watch me eat. Let me tell you, the dim sum at this restaurant is really good. If it weren't for the fact that it's not on my way to work, I would really like to have it every morning."
Who is that?
Ouyang Ming was speechless.
He was, after all, the chairman of a listed company, but in the eyes of this thug, he was just a nobody.
But on the surface, he still had to force a smile and nod in agreement.
Uncle De glanced at Xiang Huaqiang, who was wolfing down his food, then looked at Ouyang Ming and nodded to the latter.
The saying goes, "He who takes a man's money is bound to do his bidding."
Ouyang Ming paid a considerable price to persuade him to come out of seclusion.
At Uncle De's age, there are very few things that can move him, but family affection is definitely one of them.
Ouyang Ming started from this point, promising that Uncle De's descendants could live comfortably overseas, and even set aside a sum of money as a settlement allowance for this purpose.
After hearing Ouyang Ming's account, Uncle De didn't think it was a big deal.
After all, he was just a minor artist under Xiang Huaqiang's management. Could it be that Xiang Huaqiang wouldn't even give him this much face?
However, after seeing Xiang Huaqiang's behavior, Uncle De remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was a little unhappy.
Eat! Eat! Eat!
Like a pig, all you care about is eating. Didn't you hear the hidden meaning in your own words?
Besides, I am considered a senior in the underworld, so shouldn't I at least show some respect for my teachers?
"Qiangzi, take your time eating. If it's not enough, I'll have someone bring you some more. See if there's anything else you'd like to eat?"
The angrier he was, the more polite Uncle De's tone became.
Upon hearing this, Xiang Huaqiang paused, put down his chopsticks, and smiled.
"No need, Uncle De, I've had enough. If I eat any more, my stomach will burst."
As he spoke, he patted his belly comically, as if he wasn't lying.
"Qiangzai, let's not beat around the bush. You probably already know why I'm here today. So, give me some face and let's sit down and talk this over properly."
"Chairman Ouyang Ming also said that he will pay for the medicine as required, as well as for any mental distress and lost wages, totaling RMB. In addition, he will set up 88 tables to serve you tea and water."
"What do you think of this matter?"
Tsk tsk tsk...
Xiang Huaqiang chuckled and looked at Ouyang Ming, "Yuan, Chairman Ouyang, what great courage you have!"
"Brother Xiang, I was blind to your greatness. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me."
“This is my fault. I failed to discipline my son properly, which led to him hitting someone with his car. I have now put him in solitary confinement. In a couple of days, I will send that beast abroad. He will not be allowed to return to Hong Kong for at least ten or eight years, so as not to offend Brother Xiang’s eyes.”
"Please be magnanimous with your brother and don't hold a grudge against a mere child."
Ouyang Ming spoke very politely, and these words were spoken in the manner of a江湖人 (jianghu person, a person of the martial arts world) as taught by A Biao.
In Ouyang Ming's view, he had already given Ouyang Ming face and dignity, and had even yielded to him. He had lost this matter, so out of respect for Ouyang Ming, he decided to let it go.
If the fight continues, Ouyang Ming is not easily intimidated.
It's normal for a wealthy businessman of his caliber to have a few friends in the business world, especially since Ouyang Ming's background wasn't exactly clean to begin with.
