Xing Baohua asked Su Ya to come along as well. Sometimes it is indeed necessary to build a network of connections. Personal relationships and face are indispensable in any place, especially in the capital.
If Su Ya has something she can't handle and Xing Baohua happens to be away, she can use his connections to find someone to help her.
Poly's side also has a military background, and they ate at an inconspicuous guesthouse.
The guesthouse had a restaurant at the front and living quarters at the back. The living quarters were not open to the public, but the restaurant was open to the public, and those who came to eat were mostly people from the military.
People from outside the community rarely come in to eat.
As Xing Baohua and Su Ya were about to enter the hall, they encountered a group of people in their thirties, one of whom Xing Baohua felt looked familiar.
Su Ya paused briefly and said to a man in his thirties, "Teacher Ma, are you here for dinner too?"
Xing Baohua turned her head and asked, "Do you know them?"
"The agent you introduced me to last time who sold the bottles," Su Ya said softly to Xing Baohua.
When Ma Zhangyan was called out, he looked up and exclaimed, "Wow! Isn't this the rich young lady who's been making him rich for three years?"
"You're here to eat too?" Ma Zhangyan asked politely.
Xing Baohua first reached out to shake hands with the other person and said, "I'm with President Xie. He's the one who introduced you to help me find old items."
"Oh! Oh! Mr. Xie is here too, hehe, I'll go toast him in a bit. Don't let the big size of the capital fool you, we're all friends here." Ma Zhangyan said with a smile.
"Yes!" Xing Baohua nodded, then reached out to shake hands with the companion accompanying Ma Zhangyan. In fact, he had already roughly guessed who these people were.
One of them was a writer, I think his surname was Wang. Another one had slightly protruding teeth.
Xing Baohua shook hands with the man who had slightly protruding teeth and asked, "I feel like I've seen you somewhere before."
"Perhaps I've seen you somewhere before! I have a very ordinary face, but this is the first time I've seen you."
Xing Baohua didn't say anything more, leaving behind the words "I'll have some drinks later" before taking Su Ya inside.
Writer Wang crossed his arms and asked Ma Zhangyan, "Who is this grandson?"
"I don't know either. They asked me to help them buy a vase used by the Buddha before. I only took a cut, and that's how much I got," Master Ma explained.
The man with buck teeth chuckled and said, "So that's why you've been treating us so generously lately. Turns out you've struck it rich."
When having meals, chatting, and discussing business with Xie Guangqing, it was mostly about big projects, large undertakings starting at several hundred million yuan.
After finishing discussing the main topic, Xing Baohua asked a waiter about the location of the horse-eyes. He then told General Manager Xie that there were a few friends in that private room and he would go over to offer them a toast.
Wow! President Xie also stood up, thinking to himself, "Anyone who can get Xing Baohua to offer a toast is no ordinary person! I must go over and offer a toast too, so we can get to know each other."
Xie Guangqing stood up, and the men he brought were all sharp-eyed and wanted to see the world too.
Xing Baohua was a little dumbfounded. He was mainly interested in the buck-toothed man and wanted to get closer to him so that he could spend money on him.
"I ran into that antique dealer you introduced me to last time at the entrance. I went over to offer him a drink to express my gratitude for his help."
Hearing Xing Baohua say this, Xie Guangqing finally felt relieved, but out of respect for Xing Baohua, he said, "I'll go with you. You guys stay here and have a drink."
Ma Zhangyan and his friends were also surprised when Mr. Xie from Poly Group came over to offer a toast. They knew perfectly well what kind of company Poly Group was; this was a top-level executive, and they all hurriedly stood up.
As for Xing Baohua, he can be ignored, since he's not in the same circle.
After exchanging polite words and compliments, Xing Baohua finished his drinks and said to Ma Zhangyan and the buck-toothed man, "If you're all free tomorrow at noon, how about I treat you to lunch together?"
Writer Wang, still with his arms crossed, suddenly spoke up: "It's our first time meeting, we don't even know who you are, how can we give you face? We should at least have some background information before inviting you, what if it's a trap?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Guangqing first laughed and replied, "It must be a good thing that Boss Xing invited you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xing Baohua said, "Excuse me, everyone, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Xing Baohua, and I am the chairman of DaMi Group and also the chairman of DaMei Columbia Film Group."
After saying that, Xing Baohua first filled Zhen's wine glass, then tilted his head back and downed it in one gulp. He said, "To express my apology, I will punish myself with a drink."
"Mr. Xing, just name a place for tomorrow, and we'll be there on time." The buck-toothed man's eyes lit up when he heard "Columbia," and he said with a smile.
"Let's go to the Capital Hotel. After all, it's our first time meeting, so it should be a bit more formal."
After saying that, Xing Baohua and Xie Guangqing came out.
"Are they worth your attention?" Xie Guangqing asked in a low voice.
“I’m thinking of getting into the domestic film and television industry recently. They’re all a bunch of people who love this kind of thing. If we get together, we can make something happen,” Xing Baohua said frankly, though he was also worried that they might cause some misunderstandings for Xie Guangqing.
After all, they're all in the same circle and interact frequently. Having a positive impression is beneficial.
After Xing Baohua left, Ma Zhangyan and Baoya looked at each other, then sat down and discussed why Xing Baohua had invited them to dinner, and even arranged to meet at the Capital Hotel.
If you're just looking for a fortune teller to buy some old items, you wouldn't need to treat all of them to a meal.
As for his buck teeth, he works as an art director for movies and TV series. As for writers, they wouldn't write his autobiography, would they? He's so young, what's there to write about him?
"I've heard of Xing Baohua. He's very rich and controls many companies, but why did he mention rice and Columbia Pictures? Columbia Pictures isn't as powerful as his company in Hong Kong," the writer said.
