Chapter 305 Meeting the Big Boss!!
After a moment's thought, Chen Le nodded with a smile.
"Then it's better to obey orders than to be respectful."
I believe that Mr. Li wouldn't stoop so low as to put himself in such a predicament.
Li Xianyuan chuckled and patted Chen Le's hand, waving his hand, "To be honest, at my age, making money doesn't really mean much anymore."
"Sometimes, the most important thing is to live a life that makes you feel comfortable."
"However, I doubt you'd listen to me if I told you this, since you're still young."
The subtext of this statement is, "You haven't earned enough money."
Chen Le understood.
As one of the earliest giants in the real estate industry, Li Xianyuan has the right to say this.
The extent of this old man's earnings is now impossible to count.
People like that could burn money like it's paper for a lifetime.
His savings alone could support countless people.
Such people truly don't need to worry about money.
But Chen Le is different.
Chen Le is still young. Even though he has made some money, his career is still in its early stages and he faces many difficulties. This is different from Li Xianyuan, who sits and collects money.
Now, Li Xianyuan, a real estate tycoon, intends to give Chen Le a helping hand.
Chen Le readily accepted.
If you want to make money, stocks and movies alone are not enough.
Making money from movies is actually secondary; the main purpose is to build fame and reputation. However, making a good movie can achieve a good publicity effect.
Although the cost was a bit high, the film's current performance has been a rather unexpected success.
Chen Le intends to make a name for himself in the real estate industry. His previous ventures were merely small-scale operations, and it would be best if Li Xianyuan could guide him into the field.
So he didn't refuse.
After a satisfying meal, the two parted ways at the restaurant entrance.
Before leaving, Chen Le asked the chef to prepare a few more dishes to take home.
When I got home, the living room light was still on.
The first thing Chen Le saw when he opened the door was his wife, who was leaning against the sofa and mending clothes with needle and thread.
Chen Le felt a warmth in his heart and said with great concern, "Wife, it's not good for your eyes to sew clothes in such dim light."
He closed the door, took off his shoes and put on slippers, carried the takeout food to the sofa, put it down, and then gently rubbed his wife's eyes.
Seeing his reaction, Su Xi smiled.
"Went to discuss business?"
Chen Le usually comes home quite early, except when he's discussing business.
Now Su Xi knows that Chen Le is very busy and doesn't want to cause him trouble, so she can only do her duty as a wife and take care of everything at home for him.
"Hmm, is Xin Xin asleep?"
Chen Le looked left and right, but didn't see his daughter, so a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
Su Xi knew exactly what her husband was thinking. Seeing his expression, she playfully slapped his shoulder. "You rascal, go take a shower first, don't wake the baby up later."
Chen Le blinked and said, "Don't worry, I'm very gentle, except for you, Xixi..."
"You still dare to talk! You still dare to talk!"
Before Chen Le could finish his sentence, Su Xi, her face flushed with embarrassment, chased him into the bathroom.
Hey! I brought you food, don't forget to eat it!
After Chen Le finished speaking, he closed the bathroom door.
Su Xi also dropped her pretense of hitting him, looking at the exquisitely packaged food box on the living room table with a helpless expression.
"You must have spent a lot of money again."
She was right; in fact, that was indeed the case.
The meal Chen Le just had was paid for by Old Li, so it must have been an exorbitantly priced meal.
Although Chen Le packed it up later, he was definitely too embarrassed to let Old Li pay for it.
Of course, it wouldn't be appropriate to tell Old Li, as it would be even more embarrassing then.
Even so, for Su Xi, it was already a delicacy on a jade plate.
Su Xi was used to a poor life, and sometimes she felt that buying a little more vegetables was too extravagant.
It would indeed be difficult to transform her from an ordinary woman into a wealthy lady who spends money lavishly.
Perhaps, her personality is that of a good woman who can manage a household well, which are precious qualities that Chen Le had previously overlooked.
When Chen Le finished showering and came out, he found that his wife hadn't eaten yet.
"Huh? It's been so long, why haven't you eaten yet?"
Chen Le was stunned for a moment.
"I'll wait for you to eat together."
Su Xi smiled warmly as she carefully placed the two sets of bowls and chopsticks.
"No way, I just ate out and came back. You eat first."
Chen Le rubbed his stomach, looking like he was very full.
Su Xi knew Chen Le's personality, so she pinched his ear and said irritably, "Don't give me that, I know you too well."
A happy smile immediately appeared on Chen Le's face.
Just as his wife said, he deliberately saved room to eat with her, and he was already starving after driving all that way.
After finishing their meal, the two secretly went to their daughter's room to check on her, and after confirming that she was still fast asleep, they quietly returned to their bedroom.
Throughout the night, they exchanged sweet words and whispered intimate phrases.
……
The next morning, Chen Le got up very early.
Beside him was Su Xi, who had worked hard all night.
At this time of day, he always feels much happier.
Of course, it would be even better if Zheng Tianming hadn't caused me any trouble.
Early in the morning, Chen Le received some messages.
Sure enough, that old bastard Zheng Tianming was up to his old tricks again, spreading rumors online.
They slandered him by claiming that the supporting actors in his films had scandals, attempting to lower the box office of his movies.
Fortunately, the publicity department reacted quickly, providing an explanation before the news spread, thus preventing the situation from spiraling out of control.
When Chen Le heard the news, he just gave a cold laugh.
"That old bastard Zheng Tianming has plenty of underhanded tricks up his sleeve, but you never see him do anything legitimate."
It wasn't that Chen Le looked down on this big boss in the film and television industry; it was just that the other party was indeed unlikely to surpass him in the film industry.
Chen Le was too lazy to compare himself to such a scoundrel, since it was simply too foolish to try and outdo someone who was rotten.
However, without dealing with Zheng Tianming, Zhenghe Pictures will remain an obstacle in his path.
This hurdle is simply insurmountable.
Therefore, he must fight the other party to stop causing him trouble.
Tell them a principle—no matter what industry you're in, having the biggest fist is the only true principle.
Unfortunately, Chen Le's power is not strong enough yet; he needs some time to develop it.
If he had the seniority and power of Elder Li, who would dare to provoke him?
Ultimately, it's just that the city's strength is insufficient.
Chen Le shook his head, putting these distracting thoughts aside, before finally thinking of a solution.
He's not in a hurry to deal with Zheng Tianming's methods right now, but he should be more wary of Xiang Tianqiang.
Xiang Tianqiang is far more dangerous than Zheng Tianming.
He was a big shot in the Hong Kong film and television industry, the kind of person whose every move could shake the region. Faced with his threat, Chen Le had no choice but to take it seriously.
Chen Le first went to the company to make arrangements, and then contacted several other company executives to take precautions in advance.
With all the precautions taken, all that's left is to wait for the other party to make their move.
Xiang Tianqiang is not a local. As a big shot from out of town in the port city, he has very limited local resources at his disposal.
Based on Chen Le's judgment, Xiang Tianqiang will probably still punish him through the film and television industry.
If that's the case, he can only deal with it cautiously.
In the film and television industry, he is currently only in the initial stage and is very vulnerable. If he is not careful, he will be devoured by his opponent until there is not even a bone left.
The two scoundrels were in cahoots, so Chen Le had to be extremely careful.
It's like fighting a war of offense and defense; you can only proceed step by step.
This kind of thing can't be solved by Li Xianyuan; it's unrealistic.
After much deliberation, just as Chen Le was about to do something, Li Xianyuan called.
The content was simple: the big shot agreed to meet him.
Moreover, they acted very swiftly and decisively, setting the time for the afternoon.
Since he was going to meet the other party, Chen Le definitely needed to make some preparations.
