In fact, Liu Zi went to Hong Kong to audition for film directors, as she was preparing to film "Lost in Thailand".
The current slump in the film market makes it an unfavorable time to start filming.
She just needed this film to boost the media company's reputation.
With Li Mu's five million yuan backing, Liu Zi was confident she could make a film called [film title missing].
Zhang Ke called back yesterday, saying he had already contacted several suitable directors for her, and she needed to audition them herself.
However, some of them are still working and it's not convenient for them to come to Shenzhen, so it would be best if she could come over.
Zhang Ke didn't know who was behind Liu Zi, but since she had managed to expel the Anpai gang from Hong Kong in just a few months, who would be foolish enough to offend her?
Liu Zi remained noncommittal. She did indeed have something to rely on, but it wasn't her background; it was her own abilities.
The following day, Liu Zi wanted to confirm the Hong Kong itinerary with Li Song again.
Unexpectedly, the other party readily agreed, leaving Liu Zi completely bewildered as to what had happened in just one night.
Seeing that she still had some tickets left, Liu Zi called Pei Shiheng.
Hearing that it was Zhang Shaohan's concert, Pei Shiheng was somewhat disappointed, but he still nodded and went to check it out.
Liu Zi said with a look of disgust, "If you don't want to go, you don't have to. But be careful that Shao Han finds out about your attitude; I won't care if she punches you."
"Is she really that powerful? I saw in the tabloids that she even beat up her parents. I wonder if that's true?" Pei Shiheng asked with a gossipy look on his face.
"Rumors stop with the wise. Poor Xiao Hanhan, her parents only care about giving birth to her but not raising her, and they even have gambling debts. I heard that she beat someone because her parents were going to send her younger sister to be sold, and that's when she lost her mind." Liu Zi really knew the cause of the matter and quickly clarified the rumors for Zhang Shaohan.
"What? Her parents are so heartless?" Pei Shiheng felt his worldview had been shattered.
"She's still giving money to those two, all because they have custody of her younger siblings. She's probably just lying low, waiting for them to grow up!" Liu Zi sipped her coffee wistfully. Every family has its own troubles!
"Considering how hard she's worked, I'll help her book a bigger venue!"
Pei Shiheng, who works in design, has a somewhat eccentric personality, but his paintings are truly exceptional and full of inspiration. Even Liu Zi thinks that if he continues to develop like this, he will surely become a master in the future. But why did he die so young in his previous life?
Looking at the relaxed expression on the other person's face, Liu Zi concluded that it was either suicide or homicide, and homicide can be intentional or accidental.
If it was an accident, what could Liu Zi do? But if it was murder...
"Hong Kong has been quite chaotic in the last year or two. I used to have bodyguards. Why don't you hire one too, just in case something goes wrong!" Liu Zi reminded the other party.
"I don't need one. I'm a strong and powerful man, why would I need bodyguards?" Pei Shiheng showed off his muscles to Liu Zi.
Liu Zi rolled her eyes at him.
Pei Shiheng rubbed his nose: "Of course, if I really encounter desperate criminals, I will immediately take out all my valuables to save my life."
Liu Zi felt that this man was unreliable, but fortunately she still had the business card Pei Shikun had given her. The two brothers had a good relationship when they met last time, so he should care about it!
Liu Zi never expected that her unintentional act would inadvertently uncover a kidnapping plot by an international criminal organization targeting the Pei family.
"I hope Mr. Pei won't take offense at my meddling."
"How could that be? I'm more than grateful to Miss Liu for caring about Shiheng's safety as a friend. How could I be ungrateful?" Pei Shikun gritted his teeth. This brat went to Hong Kong and didn't even call home!
After returning, Pei Shikun also learned about Liu Zi's situation. Although he didn't get a complete picture, he understood the key information.
"May I ask which company Ms. Liu hired as her bodyguard?"
Liu Zi didn't hide it; helping Xu Er find some business was a good idea.
"Longwei Security, they're the ones who escorted me back when I got into some trouble in Hong Kong last time. I can't speak for far away, but if something happened in Hong Kong, they can definitely get me back to the mainland."
Pei Shikun was shocked. It was actually the Dragon Guard Security, a security force with a military background.
He first heard the name before Hong Kong's return to China. At that time, a high-ranking official from the mainland went to Hong Kong for negotiations and was attacked by unidentified armed men on his way back. The security detail protecting the official was Longwei Security.
The armed force of several dozen men was dealt with in less than ten minutes. Not only were there no casualties on our side, but we also captured prisoners alive and brought them back to the mainland for trial.
This directly thwarted the plans of certain individuals and made the name of Dragon Guard Security resound throughout the entire Southern Region.
"Miss Liu, it's very difficult to book with Longwei Security. We need to make an appointment half a month in advance, which is a bit too late..." Pei Shikun said with difficulty.
"So you want to hire another security company?" Liu Zi didn't quite understand.
"No, no, the Dragon Guard security is so powerful, I'll definitely feel more at ease with them protecting Xiao Heng. But could you please ask Miss Liu to put in a good word for me? I'll make sure to pay the full amount for the security." Pei Shikun quickly explained his thoughts to her.
"Um... how about I ask around for you first?" Liu Zi thought she was trying to drum up business for Xu Er!
I never imagined their business empire would grow so large, and they even resort to scarcity marketing.
"No problem, I'll wait for your reply," Pei Shikun replied immediately.
The friend I made this time is really reliable; he even managed to get in touch with Longwei Security. Not bad at all!
Knowing she was leaving tomorrow, Liu Zi immediately called Xu Er's cell phone.
Xu Er was reporting the situation in Li Mu's office at that moment. He glanced at the incoming call and hesitated before looking at his boss.
After noticing something was wrong with Xu Er, Li Mu asked.
Whose call was it?
"Advisor Liu!"
In an instant, Xu Er felt the temperature in the entire office drop by two degrees, and it felt chilly.
Xu Er smiled wryly, "My dear sister, when you need something, you don't go to the big boss, but you insist on coming to me, a nobody."
"Take it!"
Li Mu kept his head down, his eyes on the documents, but his mind was elsewhere.
Xu Er was very quick to react and immediately turned on speakerphone.
"Good morning, Mr. Xu." Liu Zi's clear voice came through the microphone.
"Miss Liu, please don't call me that. It makes me a little nervous." Xu Er was incredibly timid.
"Aren't you the general manager of Longwei Security? Is there a problem with me calling you that?" Liu Zi looked puzzled; she hadn't made a mistake.
"You can just call me Xu Er. Xu Er sounds nice and is easy to remember." Xu Er thought it might be okay if others called him that, but when Liu Zi called him that, he felt a little restless and wanted to stand up.
