Chapter 316 Project Launch
Chapter 316 Project Launch
Wu Qiankun concluded that Chen Le was either a complete novice who knew nothing, or a nouveau riche trying to win over Miss Zhu.
He was quite certain that Chen Le was not among the real estate developers in Hong Kong.
Given the current value of the house, taking it over would definitely be a losing proposition!
Chen Le doesn't even know this, so he must be a complete novice.
Wu Qiankun said in a sarcastic tone:
“Jinhua Residential Area is a hot potato right now. I advise you not to get involved.”
"In the entire port city, I'm probably the only one who can take over Jinhua Residential Area."
Wu Qiankun's words were undoubtedly telling Chen Le that he was no good!
"Don't worry about this, Mr. Wu. I'll handle it."
Chen Le didn't take it to heart. Since he had already decided to help Zhu Xinxin, it was not something that could be changed by a few words.
"Hmph, you don't overestimate your capabilities."
Wu Qiankun sneered; he didn't believe Chen Le had that kind of ability.
Once Jinhua Group goes bankrupt completely, a sharp drop in property prices in Jinhua residential area is inevitable.
By then, that kid will definitely suffer heavy losses!
Wu Qiankun didn't want to linger and make a fool of himself. He sneered, picked up his wine glass, and turned to leave.
"baffling…"
Chen Leneng could clearly sense the intense hostility emanating from Wu Qiankun.
“Mr. Chen, Wu Qiankun is a narrow-minded and vindictive person. If you offend him, you may be in big trouble.”
Zhu Xinxin was somewhat worried, and then explained:
"Actually, I originally planned to sell the Jinhua residential area to him."
“Although the price has been driven down, at least it can save my company from bankruptcy. Moreover, he has some skills and can complete the remaining development of Jinhua Community and sell it normally. But now he has turned his attention to you, and I am afraid he will cause you trouble.”
"It's alright. I'm not afraid of trouble at all."
Chen Le waved his hand dismissively.
Zhu Xinxin was slightly taken aback by Chen Le's confidence, then asked with some curiosity:
"Mr. Chen, may I ask, did you really pay such a high price to take over the Jinhua residential area from me just to get me to come out of retirement?"
"Although the location of Jinhua Community is good, the price of more than 5,000 yuan per square meter is indeed a bit high. If it is resold, it will probably be difficult to make money. If it is developed into commercial land, the funds will probably be a big problem."
"These are not issues that Ms. Zhu should worry about. You just need to follow the contract."
Chen Le smiled but didn't offer any further explanation.
Seeing that Chen Le was unwilling to say more, Zhu Xinxin wisely did not continue to ask. She raised the red wine glass in her hand, gave a slight nod, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Although she was somewhat puzzled about Chen Le's purpose in buying the Jinhua residential area, she wouldn't ask any further questions since Chen Le wouldn't say.
However, in Zhu Xinxin's opinion, no one is perfect. Chen Le is indeed a good director, but he may still be lacking in commercial investment.
She picked up her wine glass and said to Chen Le:
"Mr. Chen, it was a pleasure working with you. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again in the future."
"Pleasant to work with."
Chen Le raised his glass, clinked it with Zhu Xinxin's, and then drank it all in one gulp.
"Mr. Chen, I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
Chen Le politely asked, "Do you need me to give you a ride?"
"No need, my driver is waiting downstairs."
Zhu Xinxin smiled, waved, and turned to leave.
Chen Le held his wine glass, watching Zhu Xinxin's retreating figure, a slight smile appearing on his face.
Just then, Zhang Ruopu walked over with a smile, patted Chen Le on the shoulder, and said:
"Ah Le, it seems your conversation went quite well!"
"I have to thank Mr. Zhang for his introduction."
A smile appeared on Chen Le's face.
Zhang Ruopu had completely abandoned the airs he had when they first met. He patted Chen Le on the shoulder and said in a serious tone.
"Why are you being so polite with me? I'm still waiting for your movie to be released. Work hard and try to win another big award."
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, I definitely will."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chen Le got up and left.
After returning home, Chen Le threw himself back into polishing the script. Now that the male and female leads are ready, the film can be officially put into production soon!
Su Xi was still awake. She sat on the sofa with a book in her hand, but her eyes kept glancing at Chen Le.
"Judging from your expression, you've convinced Zhu Xinxin?"
Su Xi put down her book and asked with a smile.
"Of course, with your husband on the case, it's a piece of cake, isn't it?"
Chen Le smiled smugly.
"Then tell me, how did you convince her?"
Su Xi was a little curious.
"Of course, it's because your husband is too charming."
Before Chen Le could finish speaking, he saw Su Xi roll her eyes and say something in an annoyed tone.
"Screw you!"
Chen Le didn't tell Su Xi, after all, the story of Jinhua Community was a long one. He smiled and pulled Su Xi into his arms, gently tapping her forehead.
Over the next few days, Chen Le continued to refine the script.
After the script was finalized, Chen Le sent it directly to Director Feng, since they had already worked together once and he felt reassured.
Chen Le found several more actors, including the male and female leads, as well as some important roles.
Chen Le plans to have the Happy Twist cast act directly, since they are more professional, and he doesn't need to worry about the other actors besides the male and female leads.
He sent a message to Lin Tianxiong, telling him that the movie was about to start filming and that the crew should be on standby at any time.
The next morning, Chen Le brought Su Xi to the Happy Twist Theater for a meeting.
By this time, everyone had arrived.
Lin Tianxiong was talking to the screenwriter when he saw Chen Le and immediately came over.
"Mr. Chen, you've finally arrived."
Chen Le smiled and nodded, then introduced Lin Tianxiong: "This is Zhou Yifeng, the lead actor in this play."
Lin Tianxiong then turned his gaze to Zhou Yifeng, and was slightly taken aback when he saw Zhou Yifeng's face.
protagonist?
The lead actor this time is actually such a young man.
Lin Tianxiong scrutinized Zhou Yifeng repeatedly, a sense of doubt creeping into his heart.
Shen Fei just became a national sensation with "Summer Troubles," so why did President Chen leave the hugely popular Shen Fei unused and instead go looking for... such a young actor?
Or a young actor I've never seen on screen before.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianxiong couldn't help but ask.
"Mr. Chen, isn't this decision... a bit hasty?"
Lin Tianxiong voiced his doubts.
He didn't have a problem with Zhou Yifeng; it's just that in his opinion, Shen Fei was clearly the better choice.
However, Lin Tianxiong naturally had his own selfish motives.
As the former owner of Happy Twist, he also wanted to fight for the veteran actors in his theater!
Moreover.
Shen Fei is now the face of Happy Twist. If they can strike while the iron is hot and release another work, their popularity will reach even greater heights!
