Chapter 179 Sheng Qianrui Provocation
Wang Mingxia clenched her hands and dared not speak.
After a long moment of hesitation, he said, "What should we do now? Those people from the Zhang family just said that they want to see 300,000 yuan in cash at the wedding tomorrow, otherwise they will cancel the engagement on the spot. We have already used all our money to buy Taotao a house, so how can we come up with that much money all at once?"
"If you can't come up with it, you won't find a way!"
Wang Mingxia's throat choked. She wanted to say something but held back when she looked at the old man's majestic eyes.
After a while, the old man calmed down and made a decision. He turned to look at Wen Shiming beside him and said, "Go call the Zhang family and we'll accept the 300,000 yuan betrothal gift, but we can't raise that much money right away. If we can, we'll definitely pay it after the wedding. If not, we'll postpone the wedding until we have the money."
-
On the bus back to the city.
Zhou Yufan was driving, and Fang Li and Wen Yang were sitting in the back seat.
The atmosphere in the car was tense. Since getting in, Wen Yang has been leaning against the window, staring at the street scene outside the car without saying a word.
Fang Li exchanged glances with Zhou Yufan in the rearview mirror.
Not long after, Zhou Yufan spoke up: "Every family has its own problems. If you need any help, just tell me. Fang Li and I are here."
Fang Li paused and said, "We don't understand your family's situation, but we do understand you. Yangyang, just remember that no matter what happens, senior and I will always have your strongest support. As long as you ask, we will always be there."
The only response from the two was still silence.
I don’t know how long it took.
The street scene outside the window gradually became prosperous. The car drove off the overpass and into the city. Suddenly, a suppressed cry was heard in the quiet car.
......
Wen Tao's marriage did not take place after all.
The Zhang family has a very tough attitude and they want to get married as soon as the 300,000 yuan betrothal gift is ready.
The Wen family sent out so many invitations and booked hotels and banquets, but in the end, all of it was wasted because the girl's family suddenly turned against them.
Zhou Yufan said that the Wen family called Wen Yang for a whole day and night.
Wen Yang threw his phone directly into the living room without answering any calls.
Later, Wen Yang called a distant relative and asked about it. He heard that Mr. Wen took advantage of the opportunity when the relatives came to attend the wedding to borrow money from others.
In the end, everyone found an excuse to slip away, and in the end it seemed that they only borrowed less than 30,000 yuan.
Old Master Wen didn't know whether he felt embarrassed or was angry about his grandson's behavior, but he fell ill.
He was admitted to the hospital the next day and is said to have not woken up yet.
Fang Li was still hiding at Zhou Yufan's house when she received Wen Yang's call.
The Wen family is now looking for people everywhere to find out her whereabouts, and the company's landline is almost broken by them.
Wen Yang was scolded by the company leader and told not to return to the company.
Wen Yang said that she felt that this time Zhou Yufan, the fake leader, had predicted right about her, and she was afraid that she would really lose her job.
Fang Li didn't know what to say.
There is nothing anyone can do when faced with a family like this.
I could only comfort her by saying that if she lost her job, Liyun's door would always be open to her.
Let’s talk about Li Yun.
There was no response to the scripts submitted. Although several directors and producers expressed interest, they became vague and prevaricated when it came to signing a contract.
Obviously, everyone thought Liyun was a small, newly established studio.
It's okay to deal with things, but cooperation is clearly not enough.
Fang Li was very angry at the materialism of these people in the industry, but then she thought that the industry was not like that now. Starting a business was difficult, and the fruits that could be easily harvested would not be cherished.
Fortunately, no one in the studio was discouraged, and some even showed a determination to become more courageous after facing setbacks.
For several days in a row, not only did everyone work overtime on their own accord to finish the script, but Ji Tiantian and her colleagues even screened out many excellent works from the platform in just a few days.
After Fang Li and Zhou Yufan looked at it, they gave a list. They didn't even show up, and Ji Tiantian negotiated directly with the various platforms.
For nearly thirty works, he acquired all the post-production copyrights for less than one million.
This is undoubtedly a good thing for Li Yun, who has been living off her savings since she became successful.
-
This day.
Fang Li had just finished get off work and was leaving the company to go home.
Before she reached the car, a black Bentley suddenly cut in front of her, blocking her way.
The wide wheels were only a foot away from her.
Fang Li retracted her toes and took a step back.
When she stopped and looked at the black car parked in front of her, her long, beautiful eyebrows suddenly frowned.
The next moment, the Bentley's window slowly lowered.
Back seat.
A beautiful but slightly aggressive face was revealed.
"Miss Xu?"
The woman wore light makeup, and through the car window one could clearly see that she was wearing a white Korean-style suit with a champagne-colored inner layer underneath. Her long hair was neatly tied behind her head, and her whole outfit was very elegant, except for her plump lips which were painted a bright red.
Although she was sitting in the car, her light eyes did not show any intention of looking up.
He glanced sideways at Fang Li, his eyes filled with indifference.
Fang Li frowned slightly and pursed her lips: "Yes, who are you? What do you want to talk to me about?"
See her admit it.
The woman's lips seemed to curl up slightly into a smile, and without getting out of the car, she said through the car window: "I'm Sheng Qianrui, is it convenient for us to chat?"
Sheng Qianrui?
Fang Li's eyebrows moved slightly, but there was no expression on her face.
The surname Sheng is not very common.
In this huge capital city, she only knew of one family with the surname Sheng.
Wen Yang said that compared to the Han family who went into business halfway, the Sheng family is the real business giant in the capital.
That’s not all.
The Sheng family started their business and made their fortune in the Qing Dynasty. Although the national situation has been ups and downs over the years, every head of the Sheng family has been able to judge the situation and preserved the family's wealth in the wave of reform, and has continued the reputation of the wealthy family to this day.
If the Han family had not produced a business genius, Han Xi, the leading position in Beijing would have belonged to the Sheng family.
So, she is from the Sheng family?
Fang Li: "I don't know Miss Sheng."
The implication is that there is nothing good to talk about between us.
However, how could Sheng Qianrui let her go so easily?
The fact that she appeared here and stopped her accurately showed that she had done her homework before coming. She knew her and must have something to look for her.
Sheng Qianrui seemed to have expected Fang Li to say that.
Hearing this, he was not angry.
Her bright red lips curled up as she spoke, "My father and Han Xi are close friends, regardless of age difference. He's very optimistic about Han Xi. The Han and Sheng families are about to collaborate on a major project. I wonder if Han Xi has mentioned it to you?"
“.......”
"That's right, Han Xi is a workaholic. He's unromantic around women. He said he doesn't want to keep in touch with his friend who grew up with him in the compound. No wonder you didn't know."
Fang Li still didn't say anything.
Sheng Qianrui's words seemed to be just casual chat, but in fact, every sentence was subtly declaring the relationship between her and Han Xi.
They had a common childhood and similar family backgrounds.
Her father still has a good relationship with Han Xi. Even what she said about her father being optimistic about Han Xi may be the way he looks at his son-in-law.
Fang Li is not a fool.
These words seem to have no connection, but their meaning is obvious.
She's being provocative.
Although she didn't know Sheng Qianrui well, she was very familiar with the role of the second female lead.
She smiled: "Okay, where should we go to talk?"
