Lai Chi truly lives up to her reputation as a mature and sophisticated woman in Hong Kong; she possesses a charm that other young girls lack.
Most importantly, once she confirmed her thoughts, this woman was incredibly open and uninhibited.
Faced with Zhao Chen's return, Li Zi had already adjusted her attitude and affectionately took Zhao Chen's arm.
Fan Xiaopang was also with them.
Of course, this place is where Fan Xiaopang lives, and it had already been prepared here.
"Sister Li Zi, did you plan this all along?"
"Actually, you've been eyeing me for a long time, haven't you?"
Seeing Zhao Chen turn around and accuse him, Li Zi couldn't help but admire him.
"Who's targeting whom?"
"I was wondering why you were so proactive in inviting me over. I didn't really dare to think about it at the time, considering the age difference between us."
"I didn't expect you to actually dare to do it."
"No wonder you didn't call me sister, you were waiting for me here."
It's true, younger women don't call each other "sister," they're a bit wild inside.
Of course, she completely misunderstood Zhao Chen; Zhao Chen genuinely had no such thoughts before.
He just wanted to revive his career in the entertainment industry by inviting some Hong Kong stars to boost the popularity and traffic of his new company.
The main reason is that Hong Kong stars were still very useful at that time.
Regardless of their previous professional level, as long as they are labeled as Hong Kong stars, they immediately become high-class.
That's how the mainland entertainment industry was at that time; they really liked this kind of thing.
The main reason is that the entertainment industry hasn't really taken off yet. The mainland entertainment industry hasn't grown into a large and powerful entity.
Compared to the already mature entertainment industry in Hong Kong, with its many big stars and classic works, the mainland entertainment industry seems quite thin.
However, this situation will change dramatically in just a few years.
In fact, Zhao Chen had talked about this with everyone, but now everyone thinks that Zhao Chen is just making empty promises.
However, they will soon find out that everything Zhao Chen said will come true.
When faced with Li Zi's question, Zhao Chen simply smiled and did not offer any further rebuttal.
Because many things can be done simply by doing them.
The next day, Li Zi woke up groggily and found that the aches and pains from the previous night had disappeared, and he felt refreshed.
She couldn't help but look around for Zhao Chen, and saw him standing on the villa's balcony, drinking coffee and looking at the scenery outside.
At the same time, he was also discussing something with Fan Xiaopang.
At this moment, Li Zi couldn't help but blush as she recalled everything that had happened the night before.
Young people are really something else; she finally understood what Fan Xiaopang meant when he said Zhao Chen would surprise her with happiness.
At this moment, she gently pushed open the French doors of the balcony and came to Zhao Chen's side:
"What are you talking about, so enthusiastically?"
Then he gently hugged Zhao Chen from behind.
She really liked the sense of security this man gave her.
After all, she had already discovered that Zhao Chen had arranged everything long ago, from the moment she arrived.
"We're talking about getting you a role in the movie 'Hero'."
"At the same time, the script and some scenes also need to be revised."
"After all, you're mine now, and whatever they think, they have to follow my advice."
"This time, you've teamed up with Tony Leung, Maggie Cheung, and Jack Lee."
"You know, we invested tens of millions this time, and we may invest more in the future."
"This is a big production, and it's going to make a splash on the world film scene."
"It is also a battle for our company to make a name for itself. Being able to appear in it will leave your name in the history of Eastern films in the future."
Upon hearing Zhao Chen's words, Li Zi immediately became excited.
She had originally thought that she should film a few TV series first to solidify her status when she came here.
After all, her fame in Hong Kong was in the past. Now that she's in mainland China, many people probably don't know her.
But to her utter surprise, Zhao Chen immediately unleashed a powerful attack on her.
Now she felt that following Zhao Chen was the best decision she had ever made.
Upon hearing this decision, Li Zi became even more enthusiastic, almost clinging to Zhao Chen, which left Zhao Chen both amused and exasperated.
This woman can be mature and capable at times, but at other times she's just like a little girl.
Fan Xiaopang, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but chuckle.
"Sister Li Zi, your husband still likes you more."
"I've been begging for this role for a long time, but I couldn't get it."
"He gave it to you as soon as you arrived."
These words made Li Zi even happier; the man still doted on her.
However, she mostly just listens; as long as she's happy, everyone else is happy too.
She could actually understand Zhao Chen's thoughts; the reason he didn't want Fan Xiaopang to take on this task was because he didn't want Fan Xiaopang to play a role with romantic scenes.
However, Li Zi gave her this opportunity as soon as he arrived, for which she was naturally very grateful. Naturally, she reciprocated even more by giving back to Zhao Chen.
Fan Xiaopang gave the two more space; she was going to the company to prepare for what was to come.
Crystal Entertainment is expanding rapidly, which is putting a lot of pressure on her.
Right now, all the money has been invested, and we haven't seen any real returns yet.
Therefore, she needs to produce results quickly, otherwise Zhao Chen will feel that she is useless.
Of course, Zhao Chen wasn't in a hurry at all.
Because he knew very well that the money would be returned within a year at most, and with interest, he would make a lot of money.
If you're too eager to make money, you'll actually make even less.
Since he's not in a hurry to use the money, things are naturally easier for him.
Fan Xiaopang's sensible nature made Li Zi feel embarrassed.
"Honey, let's go back to my place from now on."
"The villa you gave me is quite nice."
Zhao Chen smiled and said at this moment:
"When you go back to your place, your younger brother will be there too. Aren't you embarrassed?"
“I know you and your brother have a deep bond. You two used to depend on each other for survival, and now you certainly don’t want him to go far away.”
"However, now that you're with me, I'll naturally make more arrangements for the people you care about."
"I'll see what kind of job Li Ying is suited for later and arrange a position for him."
"It allows him to have his own fun in the workplace and give full play to his talents."
Hearing that Zhao Chen had already arranged all these things, Li Zi was naturally even happier.
At the same time, she also realized that Zhao Chen wasn't just playing around, but was actually including her in his plans.
This made her even more certain that coming here was absolutely the right choice.
More importantly, there are many plans in progress, and she must perform even better.
After spending two days cuddling with Li Zi, Zhao Chen began to take the next step.
The information coming back from my subordinates shows that the Qin family has already started to exert their influence.
Ever since Qin Feng took Zhao Ruxi as his wife, he has really taken over all four of the Zhao sisters.
With the help of the Qin family, Zhao Ruxi's business quickly recovered and flourished.
As a big star, Zhao Luke has truly returned to the top tier of popularity.
Previously, due to the misfortune that befell her family, entertainment news outlets reported on it extensively, causing her considerable distress.
However, thanks to the team's amazing actions, she not only didn't lose followers, but actually gained more sympathy and support.
For a time, this actually improved her career, and she even got a few roles that she couldn't get before.
Because of her pitiful persona.
As a result, just as her career was starting to take off, Zhao Ruxi caught the eye of Qin Feng.
In this way, Zhao Luke has a new backer and can act with impunity in the industry again.
Those who looked down on her when she was down on her luck are now suffering terribly.
Zhao Luke is also a very vengeful woman. As a result, she really did a great job of teaching a lesson to everyone in the entertainment industry who had offended her.
This made her feel extremely happy.
Zhao Chen knew all of these things.
He wanted to let these women be smug for a little while, and then it would be time to deal with them.
He had not forgotten the hurt and humiliation these women had caused him.
In his past life, he was treated like a dog, his dignity trampled upon at will. Those things are still vivid in his mind. Zhao Chen will not let it go just because the Zhao family in Shanghai has been destroyed.
However, with the Qin family's involvement, things will become slightly more complicated, but only slightly.
Zhao Chen was happy to have some fun with them.
At this moment, Qin Feng felt that he had gained a crucial advantage.
He instructed the company's technical department to imitate the penguin and quickly create their own instant messaging software, YiNet Bubble.
He felt it was time to bring it out and fight Zhao Chen.
Indeed, in the beginning, YiNet Popo achieved remarkable results and even managed to steal some of Tencent's users.
However, under Zhao Chen's instructions, Tencent quickly upgraded its software, and the new features immediately stabilized the situation.
However, as Tencent upgraded, YiNetBubble also upgraded.
They imitated and made a few changes, then shamelessly claimed it as their own.
Zhao Chen had seen this tactic before with the penguins in his previous life.
Back then, Tencent was truly a behemoth. Whenever they encountered a particularly interesting or fun game or software, they would try to acquire it or invest in it.
If the other party is unwilling to cooperate, then fine, they will directly modify and imitate to innovate.
They can even integrate new technologies, add a few things, and turn it into their own.
They've ruined quite a few game companies using these methods.
So, in its past life, the penguin really was the biggest game developer.
Now, YiNet Bubble is using the same tactics it used against Penguin in its previous life to deal with Penguin.
Zhao Chen couldn't help but laugh.
In fact, this kind of practice has been seen in many industries in the East, with imitation wars, price wars, and various other battles emerging one after another.
During this period, the laws protecting intellectual property rights and patents were not yet comprehensive enough.
Therefore, this mutual imitation and competition is quite effective.
However, it's clearly naive for NetEase Popo to think it can grab users this way.
At times like these, it comes down to who can burn more money and who can outlast whom.
Of course, the most important thing is technical support.
Only through continuous upgrades and new content can these internet users develop a strong sense of dependence.
So, Zhao Chen quickly arrived at Tencent's headquarters that day to discuss the next steps with Pony Ma.
Although Zhao Chen had said he wouldn't interfere too much with Xiao Ma and his team, Xiao Ma still habitually came to ask Zhao Chen for his opinion whenever they encountered important issues.
The main reason is that this young boss's understanding of the internet far surpasses that of his peers. Even among his peers, almost none can compare to Zhao Chen.
So, under these circumstances, how could Little Ma possibly let go of such a powerful ally?
"Boss, this is the situation right now."
“We’ve done everything you asked us to do before.”
"Subsequent upgrades, new features, and the creation of new modules have all been implemented, and we have used them as well."
"However, Bubble followed up quickly; their technical experts are indeed very skilled."
"If all else fails, we can go and poach their people. They'll have no one to use, and then we can cut off their supply line."
Zhao Chen couldn't help but smile and wave his hand at this moment:
"It's not that bad, we don't need to resort to those methods."
"I'll give you a new game framework in a bit, and put the game's entry point in the Penguin's functional area."
"At the same time, we will be deeply integrated with Tencent, which will immediately stabilize the situation."
"Next, I have a few very simple games for you to play."
"Then we will engage in community interaction and collaboration."
"At that time, no one will be able to stop us from moving forward."
"Kill anyone who gets in my way, and slay even gods if they stand in my way!"
Upon hearing Zhao Chen's words, even Little Ma couldn't help but smack his lips.
However, considering Zhao Chen's previous legendary game, it was created from scratch and directly boosted Tencent's traffic and the first wave of users.
This time, using games to help solve this problem should be very effective, according to Little Ma.
After all, YiNet Popo follows everything, so why would they follow it in games?
Don't be ridiculous. From design to development, even if you directly imitate someone else's game, it takes several months to make it.
In between, there's testing for various bugs, public testing, and promotion. Do you really think making a good game is that simple?
Therefore, as long as they have it and the enemy doesn't, they have a huge advantage.
The odds of victory will eventually tip in their favor.
So, Little Ma looked at Zhao Chen with great anticipation.
He wanted to see what kind of surprise Zhao Chen would give him.
After all, the legendary game he played before had already impressed him; it was a golden goose that laid golden eggs.
Now Zhao Chen has another powerful weapon up his sleeve. How much benefit will this bring to everyone?
Even Little Ma couldn't help but feel excited...
