Wen Li glanced at it once and then ignored it.
In addition to all employees, the company's annual meeting was also attended by CEOs of other companies and celebrities from the entertainment industry.
The woman who spoke earlier was wearing a pretty pink feathered long dress with a tail, her hair styled in a bun, looking as proud and beautiful as a princess.
She should be a female celebrity from another company, but Wen Li has been in the industry for almost two years and has indeed paid too little attention to her seniors and juniors in the entertainment circle.
If we don't know each other, there's no need to talk.
Wen Li's response was so cold that Zheng Yanxi was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting Wen Li to be so indifferent, and the smile on her face almost disappeared.
She lowered her eyes and said softly, "You don't recognize me? It seems you usually have a bad memory. Let me remind you, the press conference for your movie 'The Truth' was right next to mine after the building explosion. I played the female lead in the big-budget production 'Cold Dew Shines on Peach Blossoms,' do you remember?"
Wen Li thought about it and realized that there was indeed another production team holding a press conference at the time. Moreover, this drama was broadcast at the same time as "The Truth". At first, it was far ahead of the others, but after a few episodes, it plummeted and failed to beat even several other web dramas at the same time.
“Oh, it’s this drama. I know it.” Wen Li replied politely, “I didn’t expect it to be produced by Double S.”
Michelle Cheng's face immediately darkened.
What does Wenli mean by this?
Is this a sarcastic remark about how badly this TV series was acted?
Moreover, judging from Wen Li's expression, it seems that she has never heard of her at all.
She was, after all, a second-tier star in China, and had starred in many popular TV dramas. Wen Li's words made her feel that all her efforts over the years had vanished like a bubble.
Taking a deep breath, Michelle Zheng forced a smile: "You haven't heard of me?"
Wen Li shook her head: "I think I've heard of them, but I'm usually quite busy. Apart from some very popular celebrities, I'm not very familiar with the others. I'm sorry."
Michelle Cheng was so angry she almost fell backward.
What does Wenli mean by this?
Does that mean she's a nobody?
She doesn't even recognize second-tier celebrities?
This is impossible! It's clearly a way to intimidate her!
Zheng Yanxi's complexion visibly worsened. Just as she was about to speak, she met Wen Li's innocent yet puzzled gaze. In that instant, all her anger was stuck in her chest, unable to rise or fall.
Because she discovered that Wen Li truly didn't recognize her!
Michelle Cheng is going crazy!
She had already called the paparazzi, hoping to create the impression that she and Wen Li were very familiar with each other, but Wen Li didn't cooperate at all.
Although Wen Li is currently only a second-tier actress, she actually has an excellent reputation in the entire entertainment industry. Whenever something happens to her, the stars, staff, and even the director of the production crew will personally speak up for her.
To others, being infamous is still fame, but for Wen Li, clarification is always so quick.
If she could be associated with Wen Li in the slightest way, she might be noticed by more directors.
Just as Zheng Yanxi was about to make a heartfelt call, the man opposite Wen Li suddenly turned cold, his voice like a sharp knife piercing her throat: "Leave if you have nothing else to say. Wen Li and I still have things to talk about."
Huo Yinghuai moved slightly as he spoke, his entire face emerging from the dim light.
Upon recognizing who it was, Michelle Zheng trembled and left, her face deathly pale.
She never expected that the man she was having such a pleasant conversation with was Huo Yinghuai, a business tycoon!
Wen Li blinked, watching Zheng Yanxi leave dejectedly, then looked at Huo Yinghuai and said, "She's just a minor actress trying to curry favor with me. A few words from her would have been enough to scare her away. Why did you scare her like that?"
Huo Yinghuai said, "Her name is Zheng Yanxi. Her company wanted to negotiate a small endorsement deal with me before, but during the background check, they found that Zheng Yanxi's character was not very good."
Huo Yinghuai only said a few words and did not deliberately slander him.
But Wen Li thought more deeply. The fact that Zheng Yanxi could negotiate business with Huo Yinghuai's company meant that she was no small-time actress.
However, Michelle Cheng's cleavage is not very prominent, and it seems to be declining year by year.
"No wonder she looked so upset when I said I didn't know her."
Four words couldn't help but come to Wen Li's mind: "To kill someone is to destroy their spirit."
Huo Yinghuai looked at Wen Li's empty plate and suddenly said, "It's been a long time since I treated you to a meal. You didn't get enough to eat at the party. I'll take you out to eat later."
Wen Li was indeed not full, but she didn't refuse after hearing this: "Okay, but I want to go eat hot pot."
Huo Yinghuai himself is not good at eating spicy food, but he can accommodate Wen Li's desire to eat it.
The two talked for a while longer before Wen Xingming returned.
Huo Yinghuai had no choice but to give up his seat.
Watching Huo Yinghuai's departing figure, Wen Xingming couldn't help but mutter, "Why is he everywhere?"
And why was Huo Yinghuai also invited to participate?
Is Cui Mianqu so capable now that he can even invite globally renowned business tycoons?
Thinking this, Wen Xingming handed over the plate he was holding: "Have something to eat to fill your stomach. I'll take you to eat something else after the banquet."
Wen Li picked up a spoon and poked at the cake, saying, "I'm not going back with you guys tonight. I just made plans with Huo Yinghuai; he's taking me out for hot pot."
Wen Xingming felt something was off when he heard that.
His first thought was, "Huo Yinghuai doesn't seem like the type of person who would go out for hot pot."
But Wen Li had already made an appointment with the other party, so Wen Xingming had no choice but to agree. However, he still hadn't figured it out by the end of the banquet.
The banquet ended around 11 p.m., and most people had left. When the Wen family learned that Wen Li and Huo Yinghuai were going out to dinner, Wen Tingsong didn't think much of it and handed Wen Li his casual clothes, saying, "Go early and come back early."
