Why did President Shi insist on having Si Mingyu come? Because he was the most important guest at this banquet.
You should know that among the top ten clients of China Merchants Bank's Shanghai branch, several are state-owned enterprises or provincial enterprises, and the rest are listed companies, family businesses, and foreign companies.
The former were naturally not company leaders, but rather related personnel half a level below Mr. Shi. The latter, however, had several chairmen come in person.
They were all polite to Si Mingyu, considering the former was an employee and the latter was subject to the board's control. The only person who had the final say in the entire company was the East Asia Mingyu Group. This was also why President Shi valued Si Mingyu so much; it was always easier to deal with one person than a group, and the cost was lower.
After chatting for a while, the bosses dispersed. We have to give others some opportunities to come up and chat.
President Shi went to accompany several relevant persons in charge of large enterprises, leaving the opportunity to Wang Qinqin.
So there were two beauties around Si Mingyu, the one with a pure lustful face on the left and the one with a first love face on the right, and he was the only one in the middle forcing a smile.
"Mr. Si, excuse me for disturbing you. My name is Zhu Jianwen, and I'm the chairman of the Magic City Artists and Stars Agency." A fat man in his forties stepped forward and introduced himself.
"Hello, what can I do for you?"
"Mr. Si, both films you invested in were big hits. As an industry insider, I admire you very much. I'm taking the liberty of coming here today because our company has a film we'd like you to watch," said Zhu Jianwen.
"What you're talking about happened a long time ago. I was lucky enough to make some money back then. I'm no longer interested in the entertainment industry."
I used to think that the entertainment industry was a place where I could easily exploit the murky waters and use the profits from my film investments as an excuse to increase my wealth. But now that I have a large family and a large business, that little money is no longer enough, so I no longer have that desire.
"Mr. Si, although our company doesn't have any first-tier female artists, we do have a few second- and third-tier ones. Their acting skills are impeccable. You can go and see if they're suitable for this film."
"Thank you for your kindness, but it's okay." After saying that, Si Mingyu didn't stay any longer and left.
What is Zhu Jianwen's plan? Is it not clear? It has absolutely nothing to do with any particular film, but it is true that Si Mingyu should go and see the acting skills of those female artists.
Of course, Lin Shirui beside him also heard that this fat man named Zhu Jianwen definitely had no good intentions. How did such a person get in?
Zhu Jianwen's company is actually doing quite well, with a market capitalization of several hundred million yuan, and his artists have participated in numerous film and television dramas and variety shows. It's just that in addition to his main business, he also has a side job, which means he's expanding his business.
On the other side of the banquet hall.
"Xiao Jiazi, come with me and I'll take you to meet the real boss." Nan Linlin patted Huang Jialei on the shoulder.
"Sister Linlin, please don't call me that in front of outsiders."
Their fathers are business partners. Nan Linlin has a strong personality and likes to play and make trouble, while Huang Jialei has a weak personality and is still in college. He has no way to deal with this sister.
"Stop talking nonsense. This is a rare opportunity." Nan Linlin pulled Huang Jialei away.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Huang Jialei quickly pulled Jiang Jiani along.
The big boss she was referring to was naturally Si Mingyu. The two met at a challenge held by the SCC Supercar Club and the REITS Supercar Business Fund because they were assigned to the same competition team.
Nan Linlin's family is in the wine business, and Si Mingyu has bought a lot of wine from her. He also sends her a message to express his greetings during the holidays. That's the extent of it.
But as Si Mingyu's wealth and fame grew, it became more and more difficult to establish a relationship with him.
News from China Merchants Bank said Si Mingyu would be in town today, but rumors were unreliable. Nan Linlin had his contact information, but she couldn't be rude enough to ask him if he was coming. But since they'd already met, she decided to take Huang Jialei over to meet him and make him familiar.
Even though Nan Linlin always bullies Huang Jialei, she still thinks of him at critical moments.
Seeing that they were heading towards Si Mingyu, Jiang Jiani's face turned pale with fear. She quickly pretended to be unwell and said, "Jia Lei, I won't go with you if I don't feel well."
Before Huang Jialei could say anything, Nan Linlin grabbed Jiang Jiani's wrist and pulled her along, continuing to walk forward. "Why are you so squeamish? It's just a matter of standing there for a while. If it were those workers, wouldn't they be working?"
Jiang Jiani was speechless. As a woman, her excuse wouldn't fool Nan Linlin. But she absolutely couldn't meet Si Mingyu, or else her past deeds would be exposed. Would she survive being exposed in such a situation?
But she really had no choice; she couldn't just run away.
"Mr. Si!" Nan Linlin let go of Jiang Jiani only when she was almost close, and walked forward to greet her.
"It's Sister Linlin."
"It's such a coincidence that I met you here today. I thought of introducing Mr. Si to my brother." Nan Linlin is such a straightforward person, she says whatever she wants.
"Hello Mr. Si, my name is Huang Jialei. My father Huang Luyang is in the catering business." Huang Jialei hurried forward and introduced himself.
"Hello."
"Mr. Si, this is Huang Jialei's girlfriend, Jiang Jiani. She and you are alumni of the same university." Nan Linlin introduced Jiang Jiani.
She didn't have a good impression of Jiang Jiani, which was evident from the tone of her voice when she spoke to him. So why did she insist on pulling him over? Wasn't it because Jiang Jiani was a Jiaotong University student, and being an alumnus of theirs could bring her closer to Si Mingyu?
"Mr. Si, hello." Jiang Jiani was so scared that she couldn't speak clearly and her legs were shaking.
For her, this scene was like going to the execution ground. With just a few words from Si Mingyu, she would be killed on the spot, and soon her story would spread throughout the Magic City.
"What a coincidence." Si Mingyu said casually.
When the three of them came over, he saw Jiang Jiani. He didn't expect to meet her here. After listening to Nan Linlin's introduction, he understood that she really had hooked up with a rich second-generation man.
At the beginning, Shen Kaihang said that he would solve the matter between him and Jiang Jiani by himself, so now Si Mingyu would not say anything if he met her again. As for whether Jiang Jiani was sincere or fake about Huang Jialei, what did it have to do with him?
Seeing that Si Mingyu did not expose her, Jiang Jiani felt relieved all of a sudden, but the sudden relaxation after excessive tension forced her to hold Huang Jialei's arm to avoid falling.
After chatting for a while, Si Mingyu left with an excuse, ignoring Jiang Jiani the whole time.
Huang Jialei was very satisfied to be able to meet the big boss, and as for Jiang Jiani's abnormal behavior, he thought she was shocked to suddenly learn that her classmate had such an identity.
