China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 59 It’s okay to borrow money, but not five million
  Chen Dong did not disclose his itinerary, and very few people knew about it, so after he got off the plane, there was no media waiting for him outside the airport.

After getting into the car picked up by the company, Chen Dong and his assistant quickly arrived at the company.

"Director Chen."

"Director Chen, you are back."

"Well, I'm back. Is Manager Zhong in the office?"

"Here I am."

"Okay, thank you, go ahead and get busy."

dong dong dong.

After knocking on the door and walking into Zhong Lifang's office, Chen Dong got straight to the point.

"I heard that Manager Zhong encountered a problem?"

Zhong Lifang raised her head and said with a headache: "It has something to do with your prospective school girl."

"Yang Mi?"

"Yes, she already has a contract with a company."

"Oh? Really?" Chen Dong really didn't remember this. He only knew that the other party later opened his own company and seemed to have signed a gambling agreement. There was a lot of drama in those years.

"The company just needs to start a new search, and Manager Zhong won't show such an expression...could it be that Yang Mi offended you?"

"It's not an offence. To be honest, although that girl is young, she is very ambitious..."

Chen Dong understood and interrupted: "She wants to change jobs?"

"Yes, but the contract she signed with Rong Xinda included five million in liquidated damages."

Chen Dong was confused, "Does she want the company to pay for it for her?"

"That's not really...the main reason is that she can't get the money, so she plans to borrow it from the company."

"You didn't reject her?" Chen Dong is a reborn person and knows Yang Mi's future achievements, so he is not worried that she will not be able to repay a mere five million. But Zhong Lifang is not the same. She still looked embarrassed in front of Chen Dong. There is only one explanation, The other party is very optimistic about Yang Mi's potential.

"To be honest with Director Chen, I think that girl will be popular in the future..."

In order to convince Chen Dong, Zhong Lifang analyzed all aspects of Yang Mi, such as personality, appearance, character...especially the ambition shown.

Chen Dong was a little impressed by Zhong Lifang's eyes, and he laughed and said: "Okay, since Manager Zhong is so optimistic about my prospective school girl, then give her another chance. Make an appointment to meet at the company tomorrow."

With that said, Chen Dong walked out, but just when he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and added:
  "By the way, remember to inform her to call her parents."

Borrowing money is okay, but borrowing five million is not.

After all, it was Yang Mi who breached the contract, not Dongcheng Pictures. There was no reason that Dongcheng Pictures should bear all the 'debts'.

Yang family.

Father Yang and Mother Yang felt a little anxious looking at their daughter who had been unhappy since she came back from a trip yesterday.

"Daughter, did something happen?"

"It's okay, Dad, Mom."

"You're such a stubborn girl, are you okay? It's written all over your face. Tell me, your dad and I are going to die in a hurry."

"It's really okay..."

At this time, the phone rang. Yang Mi picked it up and saw that it was Manager Zhong from Dongcheng Pictures.

"Mom and Dad, eat slowly, I'm full."

After saying this, she picked up her phone and ran into the boudoir.

Father Yang and Mother Yang saw the door of their daughter's room being slammed shut by her, and then they came back to their senses. Then the couple looked at each other and said in unison: "Daughter is in love?"

The next second, they all stood up, tiptoed to the door of their daughter's room, and put their ears down.

In the room, Yang Mi finally looked happy after answering the phone. But thinking about how she still had to convince her parents, she stopped smiling, clenched her fists at herself in the mirror on the cupboard, and cheered: "The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrade, you still need to work hard, come on!"

As soon as he opened the door full of ambition, he saw the second elder lying outside the door and eavesdropping. Three pairs of eyes looked at each other, and there was only embarrassment in the air.

The news of Chen Dong's return to China has not been hidden from the media, and now news has appeared on the Internet.

However, he didn't see it himself at the moment. As soon as it was time for dinner, Ning Hao and his wife called him and invited him to their home for dinner.

Chen Dong knew that it must be more than just eating. It was probably that the post-production of "Stone" was almost ready, so he happily went to the banquet.

Because I had been here once last time, I was more familiar with the road this time. At least I didn’t need someone to wave at the intersection.

Entering the door... Huang Bo was indeed not absent.

In fact, what really surprised Chen Dong was that Xu Zheng and Xiao Taohong were actually there.

"Director Chen." x2.
  "Brother Xu, Sister Tao Hong."

Chen Dong then greeted Ning Hao and his wife, and was directly invited to the dinner table.

"Oh, it's so rich! I just eat directly on the table every time I come here, so I can't help much. Isn't it bad?"

"Mouse, I told you to call Director Chen over earlier to help. You and Xiao Nafei are afraid of delaying others. Look, Director Chen is too embarrassed to come to the table to eat."

Huang Bo did a Tai Chi attack and attracted all the firepower. Amidst the curses and curses, the atmosphere that was originally a little cold suddenly became lively.

The topic naturally turned to "Stone", and Ning Hao said that the post-production process was almost complete, and it was estimated that the samples would be sent to Dongcheng Pictures in one to two weeks.

Xu Zheng and his wife appeared here mainly to make connections with Chen Dong. Although they talked the most during the dinner, they were obviously not as open-minded as Huang Bo.

The topic of exploring the roles in "Xiu Chun Knife" was brought up by Huang Bo, "Jie Shi's company will conduct an open casting call. If there is a suitable one, Brother Bo can come and try."

"Haha, as long as there is an open casting call, if it is invitation-only, I still want to give up my reputation. Please give me a chance, Dongzi."

Based on Chen Dong's understanding of Huang Bo, if it was truly an invitation-only system, and he was not on the invitation list, the other party would probably not open his mouth to him. But Chen Dong doesn't think Huang Bo is hypocritical because it sounds comfortable.

The next day.

When Chen Dong came to the company at ten o'clock, Yang Mi and her parents had been here for half an hour.

"Chen...Director Chen."

It was also the first time that Chen Dong met Yang Mi, who was only eighteen years old. She had a standard oval-seed face and her voice had not developed the texture of later generations, but it had some nasal sound, which was crisp and magnetic.

After just sizing up each other, Chen Dong turned his attention to Father Yang and Mother Yang.

Yang's father is a policeman, and he has a chilling aura that Chen Dong is familiar with. The reason why he is familiar is because his father is also a policeman.

After the polite remarks, let’s get to the point.

"Yang Mi, I heard that you also applied for Nortel this year, right? With your strength, I believe Nortel will not turn you away. In other words, in half a year, I will be your senior brother. As Senior brother, let me ask you one last time, have you thought about it? Don’t regret it then, because it will be too late.”

Maybe Yang Mi was still hesitant before, but after so many days of thinking, she had already strengthened her heart, so she answered decisively at this moment.

"Think about it, Chen...Senior Brother Chen, I won't regret it."

Chen Dong nodded, but he didn't really care about the other person's careful thoughts of climbing up the pole.

Instead, he looked at Father Yang and Mother Yang: "Since uncle and aunt are here today, I think they will support your daughter's idea, right?"

"Yes, yes..." In fact, Yang Mi's parents were not so sure, mainly because their precious daughter had been annoying them all night last night, but they did not give their daughter trouble now.

"Okay..." Chen Dong turned his gaze back to Yang Mi again and said, "Dongcheng Pictures can pay you 200 million in advance, but you need to find a way for the remaining 300 million by yourself. Are there any problems?"

After hearing that Chen Dong only 'borrowed' 200 million, Yang's mother immediately wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yang's father.

Even if it was reduced by 200 million, Yang Mi would definitely not be able to pay for the remaining 300 million, but she knew that the family's savings were probably this amount, so she looked at her parents without speaking, and hesitated several times.

"Okay, I agree."

At the critical moment, Yang Mi's father made the final decision.
