Chapter 488 Chen Jincheng: Am I now an uncle?
With the release of this post, everyone's attention has been drawn to this matter.
If Chen Jincheng successfully raises funds, it seems to represent something incredible.
Similarly, Lei Jun was previously ranked 25th on the list, with a net worth of 810 billion.
If Second Star successfully raises funds and is valued at 500 billion, then 20% would be 100 billion, and its ranking would likely jump directly into the top 20.
Seriously, if these two can continue to have such a good relationship, then it's truly a case of "you help me with 30 billion, and I'll repay you with ten thousand taels of gold."
At this time, Chen Jincheng had already arrived at the rice group by car.
After getting out of the car, Lei Xiaojun's assistant led him to a reception room to wait for Lei Xiaojun.
Although the other party has ended the live stream, there are still some follow-up matters to be dealt with.
Chen Jincheng's arrival in Beijing became known to many people. He had just sat down when he received a phone call from Chen Yu, the director of the Central People's Government (Chapter 351).
He answered the phone immediately: "Director Chen, what are your instructions?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu pretended to be unhappy and said, "President Chen, you came to Beijing without even informing me. You don't consider me a friend. Besides, we've recorded so many episodes of our collaborative project, 'China in Classics,' and I haven't seen you come to watch. You seem a bit indifferent."
Even though Chen Jincheng knew that Director Chen's words were feigned, he immediately smiled and said, "Director Chen, I'm really sorry, I've been very busy lately. This trip to Beijing is also about financing."
Chen Yu said with a smile, "Alright, alright, I know you're busy, Mr. Chen. Since we're here, we came to visit the CCTV set. We also want to ask you to help promote the show, as we need to find some advertisers."
“Okay, Director Chen, after we finish discussing the financing tomorrow, I’ll go to the central bank.” Chen Jincheng agreed, as promoting “China in Classical Texts” would also benefit him.
After all, this variety show will be broadcast on Ershixingchen Film and Television Network.
Besides, it would also do the central bank a favor.
As soon as I hung up Chen Yu's call, I received a WeChat message from Sister Hehe. It contained only one sentence: "I'm in Beijing. I'm sending you the gift I couldn't give you last time!"
A picture of a beautiful woman was added at the end.
It was Gao Qilan from 17.
Honestly, when he saw Long Ni last time, he felt that this actress was seriously underrated. She has a great figure and is beautiful. To be honest, she has the resources to be a leading lady of her generation.
It's just a pity that the other party didn't have any good resources in their previous life.
Was Hehe's description a bit off? Although he knew what she was thinking last time, he still replied, "Hehe, I don't understand what you're saying!"
"Pretentious!" Sister Hehe replied, and simply withdrew the photo.
Now he can rest easy, right?
Afterwards, she sent another message inviting him: "Are you having lunch with Mr. Lei? How about we have dinner together tonight?"
“Okay,” Chen Jincheng agreed.
He had just finished chatting with Sister Hehe when he received an unexpected phone call from that young master Wang.
Second Star has acquired 51% of Dawan Cinemas' shares and management rights, and can be considered to have a cooperative relationship with the Wang family, since the other party still retains 49% of the shares.
So, when it came to Young Master Wang, he answered the phone and said with a smile, "Young Master Wang, what are your instructions?"
With the connection to Dawan Cinema, as long as the two sides don't cause any trouble and get along well, they might be able to establish a family-based relationship over the next generation.
Young Master Wang said with a smile, "President Chen, you came to Beijing without even saying hello. I'll come pick you up myself."
"Young Master Wang, you're too kind," Chen Jincheng replied politely.
Young Master Wang continued, "How about we have dinner together tonight? I'd like to ask you some questions about film and television."
Upon hearing this request, Chen Jincheng thought for a moment and said, "Then how about tonight? Hehe and I also have a dinner appointment."
“Okay, see you tonight.” Young Master Wang agreed. He was in contact with Sister Hehe. He had helped Sister Hehe contact the production companies for the TV series she had invested in before, all because of Chen Jincheng.
He also helped resolve some document issues at the other party's studio by speaking up for them.
After dealing with Young Master Wang, Chen Jincheng was finally free from further disturbances. Not long after, Lei Xiaojun arrived, beaming as he entered, saying, "President Chen, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Today has indeed been quite busy."
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "Congratulations to President Lei on the great success of the premiere."
Lei Xiaojun said gratefully, "President Chen, this is all thanks to your help."
"Of course," Chen Jincheng said.
After chatting for a while, Lei Xiaojun said, "President Chen, it's about time, shall we go eat?"
"I'll follow Mr. Lei's arrangements." Chen Jincheng nodded, and the two of them left the rice group together, taking a private car to a high-end private restaurant.
To Chen Jincheng's surprise, Lei Xiaojun hadn't invited anyone else today, just the two of them.
A short while later, his assistant brought in a girl who looked to be about 15 years old.
When Chen Jincheng saw the girl, he knew she was Lei Zong's daughter. She was also very famous in another world. Despite having a background and powerful backer like Lei Zong, she didn't join the Rice Group but instead made a name for herself in Silicon Valley.
Although many people say that Mr. Lei must have invested, investment is one thing, but to make a name for oneself, one still has to rely on oneself. Otherwise, that young master Wang is a cautionary tale.
"Dad, didn't you promise to have dinner with me?" Lei Xiaoxin asked, somewhat dissatisfied.
Mr. Lei smiled and said, "It just so happens that your Uncle Chen is here. Dad needs to entertain him. Is it alright if we have a meal together?"
Chen Jincheng felt awkward upon hearing the words "Uncle Chen." Suddenly he'd been promoted to the "uncle" generation?
This……
Lei Xiaoxin looked at Chen Jincheng and complained, "Dad, where is he an uncle?"
She naturally recognized who he was. Two of her classmates were infatuated with this scumbag. She really didn't know what was so great about a man like him.
The key issue is the age of the other person; isn't it a bit too early for him to be the uncle of a 15-year-old girl?
However, she was also well-mannered and couldn't show her thoughts. In any case, she just didn't interrupt when they were talking.
Lei Xiaojun and Chen Jincheng ate for a while, and then Lei Xiaojun suddenly asked a question: "Mr. Chen, we talked about cars before, and you are very optimistic about this industry."
Chen Jincheng understood why only President Lei and he were together at noon.
The relationship was for the sake of building cars.
He knew that this CEO Lei was quite persistent in building cars. Even though many senior executives and shareholders of the DaMi Group disagreed, he still managed to secure investment from all over the place and finally got DaMi Auto going.
Many people in the rice group probably regretted it when the car company became successful.
After all, the whole cake originally belonged to him, but now he has only eaten a small piece.
Knowing Lei's purpose, he asked directly, "Mr. Lei, when will your car manufacturing project start?"
Lei Jun also explained, "I have already recruited a team, and the project should be launched around next year. The initial funding should be 100 billion yuan."
Chen Jincheng also decisively said, "President Lei, you must include me in this project. 100 billion, however much you ask me to invest, I will invest."
If all goes well, he will have already raised funds for Kuaishou by next year. At that time, he can easily use some of his shares as collateral to invest.
Mr. Lei was taken aback when he heard this. Although he knew that Mr. Chen was also optimistic about the automotive industry and that there was a high chance of persuading him, he did not expect him to be so decisive.
However, he probably knew the reason, and couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Chen, it seems that investing in you back then was the best decision I ever made in my life."
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "President Lei, let's remember the past and look to the future together."
Lei Xiaojun nodded: "President Chen, let's have a drink together!"
As they spoke, the two toasted each other with a glass of wine.
Only Lei Xiaoxin looked at the two men with a puzzled expression, somewhat confused about the inexplicable feelings between them.
After the meal, Lei Xiaojun left the restaurant with Chen Jincheng and had someone arrange a hotel for him.
After checking in, Chen Jincheng rested well in the afternoon. In the evening, he received a call from Sister Hehe: "Chen Jincheng, where are you? I'm coming to see you with a gift."
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "In the same hotel as last time, room 605."
At this moment, in Sister Hehe's film studio, Long Ni was right next to her. When she heard Sister Hehe mention "gift," her pretty face showed some embarrassment.
Because the gift the other person mentioned was her.
After what happened last time, she really struggled with it for a long time, because what Sister Hehe said was somewhat shameful to her.
But he is Chen Jincheng, and his company's film and television department is now well-known in the film and television industry, and the other party also has a film and television platform.
The key is that the other party's vision in film and television is absolutely unmatched.
Therefore, for the sake of the future, it doesn't seem like a bad idea.
Having worked in this industry, she knew many of the unspoken rules, and the only option was to see if he would break those rules.
Or, to put it another way, is it worth it to break this rule?
She used to avoid this rule because she felt it wasn't worth it; he was just a director, old, with an oily face and a bloated appearance, and she looked down on him.
Even if they are rich kids, young and resourceful, they are all short and unsteady on their feet, which tells you what kind of people they are.
But what if you meet someone who is handsome, physically fit, rich, popular, talented, and well-connected...?
That's just like the male protagonist in a novel.
When you get caught up in this kind of dilemma, you start to feel anxious and insecure, and you even start to doubt whether the other person might be willing to agree, even if you want to.
The more Long Ni thought about it, the more she couldn't help but sigh. She followed Sister Hehe out to the hotel.
"Boss, do you think Mr. Chen might not like me?" Long Ni asked Hehe in the passenger seat while driving.
They all knew they were going to fool around with Chen Jincheng today, so they didn't bring anyone else with them.
Looking at Long Ni's figure, Sister Hehe couldn't help but complain: "Can't you be more confident? Look at your face, look at your figure, and your bear. You should think about whether he will make you unable to get up. Why are you worrying about such a problem?"
“…” Long Ni clearly understood what Sister Hehe meant.
Is it too much to say that he can't get up?
Soon, the two arrived outside Chen Jincheng's room and knocked on the door.
Chen Jincheng was logging into the music section of the Second Star Film and Television Network, listening to "Painting Heart," which had just been uploaded by Sister Hong.
Like the previous two songs, this song received high praise, especially Ju Jingyi's performance, which was universally acclaimed.
Hearing the knock on the door, he immediately went to open it. When he saw Sister Hehe and the gifts she brought, his eyes lit up instantly.
Long Ni looked stunning in a strapless dress today, which, combined with her intellectual charm, not only perfectly accentuated her figure but also revealed two alluring and captivating curves.
