most charming

Before he took out his mobile phone, Lin Tao felt a headache. He felt that he had answered a lot of calls recently, and he was almost becoming a professional operator.But there is no way, who let himself "hold the power", many things must be personally asked.He began to seriously consider Lao Fat's opinion, whether he should find more "his own people" with rich management experience and delegate power, or else he would not be exhausted when his business grew.

The phone had been ringing for a long time, Lin Tao took it out to see that it was director Zhao Anhua's call, and quickly picked it up.

"Director Zhao, hello!"

Zhao Anhua greeted: "Lin Tao, it's been half a month since you disappeared, is the movie still going to be made?"

Facing his joke, Lin Tao laughed and said, "I'm here to solicit investment. I just came back the day before yesterday. I'm about to hand over the work at hand, and then I'll contact you."

Zhao Anhua said: "Many investors in China have contacted me, but I haven't decided who to cooperate with yet. There are also many investors in the United States. You are under a lot of pressure." His words were both a joke and a reminder After all, as an internationally renowned director, he has to bear some pressure to cooperate with an "unknown" investor like Lin Tao.

"It's okay, it's just money, I voted for it!" Lin Tao said grandly, "Director Zhao, what are you doing now, I'll go find you right now!"

"I'm in the capital, and there's a gathering in the circle tonight, are you interested?" Zhao Anhua realized that there was something wrong with his statement after speaking, and explained, "I forgot that you're not in the capital, so next time you come over When I was here, I specially arranged a small-scale gathering to introduce some friends to you."

Lin Tao rolled his eyes and said, "Meeting is worse than meeting by chance. Since there will be an event tonight, why wait until next time? I have nothing to do. I will buy a ticket now. We can meet in two hours at most." .”

Zhao Anhua was amazed at his straightforwardness, and immediately smiled and said, "Okay, if you are willing to come, I would also like to ask for it. There are many people from the industry participating in this party, and there are also people who are going to play against you in the movie soon. actor."

Lin Tao said: "Then it's settled, let's meet later and say, I'll ask someone to book a plane ticket now."

After finishing the call, Lin Tao called Shang Jingjing and asked her to book him the latest flight to Beijing, while he drove home and simply packed two pieces of clothes.After all, it's a movie circle gathering, so I can't dress too cheaply.

Lin Tao stared at the clothes in the closet and thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't touch the Armani suit.It was bought by Guo Yiling for him, and he only wore it once from the beginning to the end. To be honest, he really doesn't like the feeling of wearing symptoms, it's a bit too rigid and uncomfortable.

After thinking about it, Lin Tao finally chose more casual clothes. After changing, he brought a change of clothes, and then drove directly to the airport.

Shang Jingjing has already booked a flight ticket for him, and the boarding pass has also been exchanged online, just scan the QR code at the airport.

Half an hour later, a flight slowly took off from Junbei Airport.

First class has become the standard for Lin Tao’s travel. It’s not that he is extravagant, but he thinks first class is quieter. Sometimes when traveling in economy class, adults and children get together and it’s a bit noisy.

The plane landed smoothly at the Beijing Airport. Lin Tao called Zhao Xiahong as soon as he got off the plane. Without even thinking about it, this old boy must be together with Zhao Anhua.

Sure enough, Lin Tao's guess was not wrong at all, it was exactly as he expected.In fact, even if they did not call Zhao Xiahong, but contacted Zhao Anhua, they would still send Zhao Xiahong to pick him up.

Fortunately, the two directors are not far from the airport now, otherwise Lin Tao didn't know how long he would have to wait given the traffic conditions in the capital.

But even so, he waited for almost an hour before Zhao Xiahong came late.

"Brother Zhao, you are really slow." Lin Tao complained as soon as he got in the car.

Zhao Xiahong smiled and said, "You're just content. If I don't come to pick you up, you won't even be able to find a place by taxi."

"Where did you meet up, making it so mysterious?" Lin Tao asked curiously.

"A private club newly opened by a bigwig in the circle has encircled a large piece of land on the outskirts of the city with an investment of over [-] million. It just opened today and invited a group of people to come over to support it. I heard that Brother Zhao is also in the capital. Through contacts Contact me, just because I also need this kind of occasion to expand my network, so I brought Brother Zhao along."

"Director Zhao is so vulgar?" Lin Tao shook his head and laughed.

"What is vulgarity?" Zhao Xiahong said contemptuously, "In the circle, people look up and don't see down. People have to accumulate slowly. That big boss gave me face, can I not give others face? Face is given to each other. , if you give more, you will naturally become friends. You are still too young, and it is normal to not understand!"

"Well, I don't understand!"

"Don't be convinced. Don't look at Brother Zhao as an international director. If you want to enjoy yourself in China, you have to have contacts with these big guys, otherwise it will be difficult. Don't look at Hollywood, but you Think about it, how much of the global box office is contributed by the mainland? What if a certain boss stabs you in the back, causing the movie to be delayed, or simply not to pass the review, will you cry?"

Lin Tao nodded. If Zhao Xiahong said that, it would be easy to understand. The content of this party would be much simpler, without too much entanglement of interests, and the more important thing is to give each other face.

As if he knew what Lin Tao was thinking, Zhao Xiahong said again: "However, I'm talking about a director of Brother Zhao's level. For people like us, it's one thing to support them, and the other is to ask for others. After all, we I want to hang out in the country, and sometimes I have to live on the nose of the big boss."

Lin Tao curled his lips and said, "That's you, not me. I don't want to rely on others!"

"Fuck, you boy, why haven't you figured it out yet?" Zhao Xiahong looked helpless, and every time he tried to persuade Lin Tao to lower his attitude a little, he always felt embarrassed.

"It's not that I don't want to understand, but I really don't need to ask them!" Lin Tao sneered, "I'm fine if I don't bother them, don't mess with me!"

Lin Tao wasn't lying. With the relationship he has now, if he was willing to be like a common dude, he would have made a name for himself in the capital long ago.And he is unwilling to be that kind of person, so he has been quietly working in Junbei. Now that he has made some achievements, he is even more unwilling to look at other people's faces.

"Yes, pretend I didn't say it! Anyway, you have to show some face at the party at night. Not everyone is as discerning as Bai Baisheng, and there are many people who have eyes but don't know how to talk about mountains!" Zhao Xiahong persuaded him kindly, and he also did it for Lin Tao. good.

"I know, don't worry, I won't lose face for you." Lin Tao smiled and patted him on the shoulder. He still respected Zhao Xiahong, and he had to give him face.
