Chapter 647: All Familiar Faces
Waiting for the Rolls-Royce to pick her up at the intersection, Zhou Anan felt the gazes from all around when she got in the car. She couldn't help but sigh at General Manager Feng's living standard.
Why is there such a big gap between him, the major shareholder, and the general manager?
I don't know, is this using the company's public account?
There was only a middle-aged driver and a young female assistant in the car. Zhou Anan chatted with them briefly and then closed her eyes to rest.
He had been rushing to catch up on his schedule since morning, and now that he had finished shopping, he was indeed a little tired.
After sitting for about twenty minutes, Zhou Anan noticed that the vehicle passed the undersea tunnel and drove towards the mountain, which reminded her of a famous place called Regal Hill in Hong Kong Island.
The car drove into a villa area and stopped in front of a luxurious villa covering a huge area.
"Mr. Zhou, please follow me."
After handing the gift bag purchased today to the female assistant who had spoken, Zhou Anan walked into the villa greeted by a middle-aged man who was suspected to be the butler.
As soon as she stepped into the banquet hall of the villa, Zhou Anan felt many eyes staring at her.
Looking around casually, Zhou Anan saw not only her own General Manager Feng, but also many familiar faces.
The kind of familiarity where he knows the other person but the other person doesn't know himself.
The men can be ignored, and most of the women are the ones he has fantasized about in his dreams.
There is Kang Yuying who played Zhao Min in a certain version and Su Rongrong in a certain version, Liu Ci who played the second female lead Zhenzhen in a certain zombie movie, Wang Qifeng who played the female lead Xiaoling in a certain zombie movie, and Pan Jialan who played Zhou Zhiruo in a certain version and Qin Mengyao in a certain version.
It seemed as if all the young and beautiful Hong Kong actresses he was familiar with were gathered together.
"Come on, Mr. An, let me introduce you. This is Li Zhenggang, the vice president of Infinite Entertainment, and this is Zhou Anan, the major shareholder of Blue Whale."
Seeing the major shareholder coming, Feng Jiming went up to him and, with a smile, introduced the young man next to him to the other party.
There was no way. Among the people present, except for him, the other men from the mainland did not speak standard Mandarin, and it was very boring to chat with them.
"Boss An, seeing is believing. Please let me entertain you well today."
After shaking hands with the young major shareholder, Li Zhenggang smiled and said politely, with a unique Hong Kong accent in his voice.
"Mr. Li, you are too polite. We will have plenty of opportunities to entertain each other in the future."
Zhou Anan had a general idea about the cooperation between the company and Infinite Entertainment, and spoke politely.
"Yes, yes, Mr. An, please."
Following the two of them to the corner next to them, Zhou Anan chatted casually for a while and immediately understood the theme of the banquet.
Lai Yao-cho, the chairman of Infinite Entertainment, is celebrating his 90th birthday this year. Today's small banquet is a small cocktail party held by his 25-year-old youngest daughter to celebrate her birthday in the name of a rehearsal.
Most of the artists under Infinite Entertainment were present. In addition, Infinite Entertainment dominated the entire TV drama market in Hong Kong Island, which meant that almost all famous stars in the TV drama industry in Hong Kong Island were present. By the way, it also attracted many single and married Hong Kong young men.
"Please sit down for a moment. I'll be right back."
Ten minutes later, Li Zhenggang left for something, leaving only Feng Jiming and the other two.
“Are they determined to enter the mainland?”
Although she really wanted to get to know those familiar female celebrities, Zhou Anan felt she needed to maintain her own status, so she pretended to care about the company's business.
After all, he is considered a major shareholder of Blue Whale Entertainment, although he has not received any money so far.
"Li Zhenggang is very determined, but Infinite Entertainment is not necessarily so determined."
Feng Jiming gave a concise and clear answer to this question.
"oh."
As Zhou Anan had watched too many Hong Kong dramas in her previous life, she understood it instantly.
"It's a bit troublesome to cooperate with them, there are too many factions."
Even though the major shareholder didn't ask, Feng Jiming took the initiative to explain.
Although Li Zhenggang is the vice president of Infinite Entertainment, he cannot represent the entire Infinite Entertainment. All this is related to the long-lived chairman of Infinite Company.
To be precise, it is related to the second wife of the long-lived chairman.
The entire Infinite Entertainment can be roughly divided into three factions: the direct descendants of the Li family, the chairman’s second wife, and the second largest shareholder, the Li family, each of which has considerable say.
The group with the most say belongs to the chairman’s second wife. That wife currently holds the position of president of Infinite Entertainment Group and controls the general direction of Infinite Entertainment’s development.
Since the beginning of the new century, Infinite Entertainment could have made a big push into the mainland entertainment market, but due to various factional struggles, it missed the best development opportunity.
Today, the entertainment market in Hong Kong Island is gradually declining. The direct descendants of the Li family, seeking change, have frequently contacted entertainment companies in the Mainland. There are many cooperation projects, but the results are minimal.
Under such circumstances, Li Zhenggang, the vice president of Infinite Entertainment and the nephew of the chairman of Changshou, approached the fast-growing Blue Whale Entertainment, and it was Mr. Yang from Huangying Entertainment who acted as the bridge.
"Sir, may I invite you to dance?"
Just as Zhou Anan was listening to General Manager Feng gossiping, music started in the hall and two beauties walked up to them and extended an invitation.
"Boss An, now that you're here, just relax a little."
Holding the hand of the beautiful star, Feng Jiming said something with a smile, his twitching eyebrows carrying a hint of vulgarity.
"It is better to obey than to be respectful."
Looking at Liu Ci who was leaning forward and showing off her nice figure, Zhou Anan stood up, held her hand, put her arm around her slender waist, and walked into the dance floor.
Although she had not learned any professional dance steps, Zhou Anan still knew a little bit of simple ballroom dancing, at least she knew how to guess where her female partner's feet were.
The actress who danced with him can be said to be the memory of a generation of Chinese otakus born in the 1980s. Her beauty is no less than that of today's big actresses.
Different from the idol actresses who are becoming increasingly popular now, the Hong Kong actresses born in the 1970s are all very recognizable, with top-notch looks and figures. They are the type that become more attractive the more you look at them.
For example, Liu Ci, who was dancing with him, was already thirty years old, but still as beautiful as a flower. There were not many signs of aging on her. She was truly a natural beauty.
"Sir, you are a senior executive of Blue Whale Entertainment. I wonder if you can leave a chance for me?!!!"
Showing off her still charming figure and skillful dancing skills, Liu Ci asked in a gentle voice while keeping the distance between them sometimes close and sometimes far.
She knew that the company was going to cooperate with a mainland entertainment company on a big project, and today, seeing the general manager of Blue Whale Entertainment chatting happily with the vice president, it was obvious that a clear signal was sent.
"Our cooperation with your company has not yet been confirmed. I can't guarantee that I can leave you a chance."
Listening to the other party speaking standard Mandarin with a special flavor, Zhou Anan did not feel that the other party's words were materialistic at all. Instead, she felt that the other party had a very straightforward personality.
Beautiful women all have sensory privileges.
Especially for beautiful and pleasing stars, even if they speak with some intention, men will not feel angry.
"Then after the company decides, can I treat you to a meal?"
Being politely rejected by the other party, Liu Ci did not feel annoyed at all, but instead showed a look of joy.
What she said just now was just a test, but judging from the other party's words, once their company and Blue Whale Entertainment confirmed a cooperative relationship, the other party would definitely have the power to decide the fate of certain characters.
It is certain that the other party is a senior executive of Blue Whale Entertainment and he needs to be made friends with.
"I never refuse a beautiful woman's invitation to dinner."
Hearing the other party's meaningful invitation, Zhou Anan smiled and did not refuse.
After a slow dance with a vague flavor ended, Zhou Anan returned to her seat and watched Liu Ci being invited to leave by another young man. Her eyes fell on a beautiful woman not far away.
Among all the actresses present, the one Zhou Anan was most attracted to was naturally Wang Qifeng, who had played the female lead Xiaoling in a zombie movie.
Thinking back, he rented a whole set of discs and watched that zombie movie for several days and nights. He was very attracted to the heroine who always showed off her beautiful legs.
Unfortunately, when Zhou Anan was about to invite the beautiful woman with long legs from a certain zombie TV series, she found that someone had already taken her place, so she turned her attention to Kang Yuying, who played a certain version of Zhao Min and had a slightly better figure.
The beauties at this banquet are all of good quality.
In terms of figure alone, Kang Yuying can be said to be among the top three, but no one knows why no man has ever invited her to dance.
"OK."
Kang Yuying didn't expect someone to invite her to dance. She was thinking about something and was stunned for a moment. After she reacted, she gave a forced smile and accepted the other party's invitation.
"Miss Kang seems to be worried about something?"
Feeling the advantage of the other person's figure at close range, Zhou Anan asked with a smile, putting her hand on the other person's slender waist.
"Nothing."
Shaking her head, Kang Yuying didn't want to confide her troubles to this stranger.
She hadn't listened closely to the conversation between her colleagues and wasn't quite sure of their identities, but she knew that they were indeed very courageous to invite her to dance in such an occasion.
"Mr. Yun, the woman you like has been invited."
In a corner, among several young men drinking, one of them smiled and joked with the young man wearing silver-framed glasses next to him.
"Who is that guy?"
Looking at the young man hugging Kang Yuying on the dance floor, the young man with silver-framed glasses had a hint of coldness in his eyes.
