Chapter 200 Mutual Dislike
Chang Wan has a bad temper now and can't stand any bad words.
She frowned and looked at Lu Feng, "What do you mean?"
Seeing that she was angry, Lu Feng said flatteringly: "I'm afraid those people will gossip about you behind your back."
Chang Wan's lips curled up slightly, "Just say it, aren't there enough people gossiping about me behind my back? It's just that they can't compare to me and are jealous of me."
Chang Wan became arrogant again.
Lu Feng secretly rolled his eyes, then asked her, "By the way, didn't your dad say last time that he had contacted a director in Hong Kong? What did he say? Did he intend to introduce you to a role?"
The actors here get a fixed salary and are studio employees, while the actors over there are big stars and get paid high salaries. There is a world of difference between the two.
Lu Feng also wanted Chang Wan to develop, such as going there to film a movie and become a big star. He could make money faster than running a publishing house and it wouldn't require much effort, which would be no different from picking up money.
I think so, but it is not so easy to go to their place.
Chang Wan: "My dad just met with them and had dinner with them, that's all! Those people look down on us, they are so arrogant. Besides, even if I go, I have to start from the beginning, it's not as easy as you think. I'm not that stupid to give up the leading role here and go over there to play a minor supporting role."
Chang Wan just doesn't want to give up her current comfortable life.
Lu Feng was about to roll his eyes inwardly again, and he said, “I want to remind you that society has developed very quickly in the past two years, and the films outside have had a great impact on us. If we don’t respond quickly, we will easily be left behind.
There's a video hall on the street ahead. You should have seen it. There's a long line of people waiting to watch it, and it's hard to squeeze in.
I don't know what your production studio is planning. Television stations are responsible for their own profits and losses these days, and people sometimes have no choice in order to pay their salaries. ”
Lu Feng has a very thorough understanding of things, but he just has a big mouth.
Chang Wan also knew these things, but what could she do?
She has the Chang family as her backing here, so she can always be at the front in everything she does. But if she really goes out there and has no backing, she will be nothing.
Look at Lu Feng sitting next to him. He is already thirty years old. He runs a publishing house, makes some money, and even buys a car. He is much better off than most people.
But, he was still no match for Meng Chengan.
Chang Wan heard from others that Meng Cheng'an invested one million yuan in the film studio where Liu Jun worked in the name of Tian Xiang.
Although Chang Wan felt that one million dollars could not save the other party and would only make it die more slowly, it did not prevent Meng Chengan from pampering his wife.
One million! Lu Feng had been busy for the past two years and only earned a car at the beginning. In the past six months, his publishing house seemed to have not made much money.
Thinking of this, Chang Wan couldn't help but ask him, "By the way, has your publishing house published any best-selling books recently? I don't think you mentioned it."
Speaking of his own affairs, Lu Feng dodged his gaze and said vaguely: "It's not just you who are affected by external shocks, we are the same. Everyone is very impetuous and can no longer calm down and appreciate excellent literary works. We all like to read things from the outside."
Chang Wan couldn't help but ask him, "Don't you know how to get some copyrights from outside? You can print whatever people like to read! You are just blaming me. You also have to learn to change."
Lu Feng: "I know. But I don't have any connections there. I don't know who to turn to even if I have the money in my hand."
Lu Feng had considered this aspect before and even contacted a middleman, but unfortunately he turned out to be a liar who cheated him out of several thousand dollars.
He was anxious to persuade Chang Wan to go out, thinking that if she went there, she would be able to find some connections for him and develop his publishing business.
Both of them were silent for a while as they waited for the other to pave the way for themselves.
After a while, Lu Feng said, "By the way, can you talk to your dad and ask him to help me arrange it? I want to translate two famous foreign books."
Last time, Lu Feng made money by doing this.
Chang Wan rolled her eyes. "Don't you know how to negotiate? My dad will retire in half a year. If he has to help you with these things at the last minute, it will be easy for someone to target you."
Lu Feng stopped talking. If he had connections, he wouldn’t have said that.
Chang Wan saw his embarrassment and gave him some advice, "If your publishing house doesn't work, hand it over to someone else first. Switch to opening a magazine company, which can publish both newspapers and magazines. If you really have a chance to get the copyright, you can also publish books. Look at Meng Chengan's magazine company, the English learning newspaper it publishes is almost a student newspaper. Those who are going to take the college entrance examination all have a copy.
Also, at the beginning of the year, he obtained the sales rights for several popular novels in Hong Kong. They have been selling like hot cakes in the past few months. Now..."
Before Chang Wan finished speaking, Lu Feng yelled, "Enough! Can you please stop talking about him?"
No matter who is bad, I have to criticize him.
Meng Chengan is just a loser who only went to college thanks to his family. How can he compare to me?
His current success is nothing more than the result of the path paved for him by his family.
Without Grandpa Meng and the two aunts from the Meng family, what could he do? He is still working in a machinery factory in their city, earning only a few dozen yuan a month!
Lu Feng suddenly got angry, and Chang Wan looked at him inexplicably, "What I said is also the truth, why are you so mean to me?"
Lu Feng looked at her gloomily. As they were glaring at each other, someone knocked on the car window.
Qin Rui, carrying a basket of vegetables, arrived at some point in the future.
The two men calmed down and got out of the car silently.
Lu Feng greeted Qin Rui, took out the fruit he had bought in advance and handed it to her, but did not go in, saying that he was busy at work and had to leave.
Qin Rui asked him to stay, "Xiao Lu, have lunch before leaving."
Lu Feng has been performing well in recent years, and the old couple in the Chang family are quite satisfied with him.
Lu Feng: "Maybe next time. I really have something to do today."
Qin Rui saw that the two were arguing, so she didn't stay any longer and nodded with a smile.
Lu Feng drove away.
The Chang family's mother and daughter returned home.
There was no one at home except the two of them, and Qin Rui couldn't help but talk to her daughter, telling her to calm down and learn to be humble to others.
Chang Wan said impatiently: "Mom, can you please stop talking about this?"
Qin Rui sighed, "Okay, I won't talk about this. I want to ask you, when are you two going to get married? Lu Feng is already 30 years old this year, and you are 26, how long are you two going to wait? Look at them, they have even sent me the invitation for the full moon banquet."
Qin Rui said this and took out an invitation to show Chang Wan.
What a coincidence, it was Meng Chengan and Tian Xiang's.
Chang Wan was annoyed when she saw him, "Mom, you don't have grandchildren, why are you urging me?"
Chang Wan has two older brothers who are already married and have children.
Qin Rui asked her speechlessly, "You don't want to get married, do you?"
Chang Wan smiled bitterly.
How could she not want to get married? But what could she do? The person she liked was already someone else's.
