Chapter 748: Who is vulgar
Li Sizhi didn't want to go, she took Alvin with her, the relationship between the two was undecided, and it was not suitable to bring him into her circle, but she was very skilled, and she knew that today's incident, it was easy for her to say a word, and between the crew and Meng Xiang, I am afraid that further communication is needed.
Seeing her hesitation, Zhang Zhaohui hurriedly spoke: "Mr. Li, let's sit down together, Morning Star has not introduced you, we don't know your identity, let's get to know each other today, thank you for helping our two families reconcile the contradictions, the crew has a treat at noon today, thank you Mr. Li, Mr. Xiao Meng and Mr. Xiao Cai for their support to our work!"
Zhang Zhaohui said this, Li Sizhi knew that she was not good and didn't go, so she nodded and agreed, Zhang Zhaohui called Morning Star to go with her, Morning Star had already got the lunch box that Alvin made for her, she was not good at socializing, so she said to Zhang Zhaohui: "Mr. Zhang, I want to recuperate, my sister has already sent me a nutritious meal that she specially customized for me, I won't go, you go out to eat." ”
Li Sizhi, Wang Mao, and Zhang Zhaohui all knew what she was like, so they didn't force it, Cai Sicheng wanted to persuade him a few more words, but saw that Chenxing didn't look at him, nodded to a few of them and turned away, so he had to swallow the words that came to his mouth.
Huang Jing and Mao Zhizhi went to get the crew's box lunch, and Morning Star ate the lunch that Alvon specially made for her, and after eating, she went back to the hotel to rest for a while.
Zhang Zhaohui took everyone to the Crowne Plaza Hotel, and he had already ordered the drama to set the largest private room there, and he called the director, Wang Mao, and Pei Haoyuan to accompany the guests.
When they arrived at the private room of the hotel, everyone naturally pushed Li Sizhi to sit on the top seat, Li Sizhi refused, and said to Zhang Zhaohui: "Mr. Zhang, whether it is age or seniority, you are all elders, how can there be juniors who do not understand the rules? Everyone can sit at a table, it is a rare fate, if Mr. Zhang doesn't want to torture me, just listen to me, and everyone will sit according to age today." ”
Seeing that she sincerely refused, Zhang Zhaohui was no longer polite, and asked everyone's age, and he sat on the top with the director, Wang Mao, Cai Sicheng, Meng Xiang, Tian Tian on the left, and Li Sizhi, Alvin and Pei Haoyuan on the right.
During the banquet, Zhang Zhaohui asked about Li Sizhi's family background, only to know that she was Li Muyu's niece, and couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart, Morning Star was sick, Li Sizhi came to take care of her, it seems that it should be a very close relative, but Morning Star has been debuting for so long, and I have never heard of her having such a prominent relative!
Is Morningstar so low-key? But if she is really a relative of the Li family, there are many things that make no sense, how could a close relative of the Li family grow up in the countryside of Shaanxi Province, and they still graduated from junior high school, came from the draft, and ran for four years before they had a chance to come out?
Is there any complicated secret to this?
Not only him, but Wang Mao was even more curious about the relationship between Li Sizhi and Chenxing, but he was not familiar with Li Sizhi, so he didn't have the friendship to continue to ask, so he could only put it in his heart first.
Everyone sits together or in order to resolve each other's differences, in this case, wine must be drunk, in order to take care of the ladies, Zhang Zhaohui specially brought two kinds of wine, the men drink Feitian Moutai, and the ladies drink French dry red.
Zhang Zhaohui is old, naturally knows how to seize the opportunity to turn the war into a jade silk, after three rounds of drinking, Zhang Zhaohui picked up a glass of wine, and took the initiative to apologize to Meng Xiang: "Mr. Meng, today's incident is caused by my failure to communicate with you in advance, here I apologize to you first, please Mr. Xiao Meng for the sake of me being entangled in mundane affairs and busy all day long, don't take it too seriously." ”
After speaking, he picked up the wine glass and punished himself first, but Meng Xiang couldn't really let Zhang Zhaohui apologize, he also quickly picked up the wine glass, drank the wine in front of his door, and got up to fill the wine glass for Mr. Zhang and himself, before saying:
"Mr. Zhang, where is this? It's because we don't understand the situation, so there was a misunderstanding, to be honest, after watching the acting skills of the female lead actor today, I immediately felt that if you change the play well, I will wait for this investment to make a lot of money!"
Listening to his "truth", Zhang Zhaohui would not believe it, and he also said "sincerely": "Mr. Meng, it is true that my work was not done properly, resulting in this movie not meeting your expectations, so let's do it, friendship is friendship, and reparation is indispensable, I will refund half of the 40 million investment, and there will be a good opportunity in the future, let's continue to cooperate, what do you think?"
If Li Sizhi hadn't come forward, Meng Xiang would definitely have accepted the 20 million unceremoniously, which was also a result that he had weighed in his heart and was acceptable to both parties, but now he learned that Chenxing was a relative of the Li family, and he did something like that, so that Li Sizhi would not have a grudge, he had to be more generous.
What's more, Li Sizhi provoked his embezzlement of public funds, this kind of thing is the unspoken rule of their business sales, mineral transactions, most of the contracts are phased settlement, so the person in charge of sales, make a yin and yang contract, do something to intercept a few sums of money, it is a common thing, not to mention that he is a young owner, even if the people around him know, no one will have much trouble.
It's just this kind of thing, it's nothing for you to do quietly, but once someone grabs the handle and exposes it, it will be a big trouble, not to mention anything else, as long as Li Sizhi secretly tells his sister Meng Yang about this matter, it will be enough for him to drink a pot!
His sister Meng Yang is eight years older than him, and is recognized as diligent and capable, if it weren't for his father's partiality and his heart's affection for him, Meng's direct training of his sister as his successor might be more popular.
If his sister wants to ruin him and stab this matter to the board of directors, I am afraid that his father will not be able to shelter him, and the lightest punishment will be to transfer him from the sales position, so that he will not be able to hold the core position of the company for at least five or seven years.
He knew the severity, so he made a very sincere look: "Mr. Zhang, don't scorn me, I watched the acting skills of the two leading actors today, which made me feel that this investment is a very correct decision I made, don't return the money to me, I'm still waiting for the dividend to make a big profit!"
Hearing him say this, Zhang Zhaohui knew that he was held by Li Sizhi, so he was no longer reluctant, and said in his heart, he then explained to his boss that if this movie is a box office hit, it would be good to give him more dividends.
This matter was solved, and the atmosphere on the table was more pleasant, Cai Sicheng saw that Alvin's eyes were glued to Li Sizhi, guessing that he might be Li Sizhi's boyfriend, and quipped: "Sister Li, you are such a generous person, why don't you introduce the man next to you today?"
Before eating, Li Sizhi had already whispered to Alvin, because they hadn't met their parents yet, so they wouldn't introduce him publicly, Alvin could understand Li Sizhi's prudence, and then heard Cai Sicheng ask, in order not to embarrass Li Sizhi, Alvin took the initiative to introduce himself:
"I'm Alvin Richard, a native of Yorkshire, England, and a classmate of Si Zhi at Columbia Business School. ”
Hearing him say this, Cai Sicheng said that the relationship between them had not yet been determined, so he didn't ask any more questions, and instead turned the topic to Chenxing: "Sister Li, your sister is so beautiful! Your family hides her so deeply, I have never heard anyone in the circle mention her in the past, my brother sincerely inquired this time, does your sister have a boyfriend?"
Except for Meng Xiang, everyone at the table looked at Cai Sicheng with the eyes of a fool, Cai Sicheng was looked at by everyone as if he was sitting on pins and needles, and quickly asked: "Why are you looking at me like this? Is this question stupid?"
"It's really stupid!" Li Sizhi hit him with a smile: "Chenxing is the daughter-in-law of the Su family, and her husband is Su, the first son of the capital, haven't you heard of it?"
Cai Sicheng was stunned for a while, and it took a while for him to wake up, and he said: "Sister Li, I really haven't heard of it, I only came back with Meng Xiang in July last year, and I haven't heard the news of Su's marriage in our circle!"
"This is understandable, you came back late, and they really haven't held a wedding yet, but everyone in the entertainment industry should know about it," Li Sizhi said to Wang Mao, "right?"
"Yes, everyone in the circle knows," Wang Mao looked at Tian Tian: "Didn't you tell Meng Xiang about this?"
"Why didn't you say it?" Tian Tian looked aggrieved: "Meng Xiang didn't believe me, and thought it was ......"
She didn't say any more, but everyone could guess what she was going to say, Meng Xiang must have thought that she was throwing stones to ask for directions, taking the opportunity to test his attitude, and to see if she could become his real girlfriend!
Meng Xiang was also shocked, he couldn't have imagined that the female number one in Tian Tian's movie really married into a wealthy family, or a top wealthy family like the Su family, when Tian Tian talked to him some time ago, he interrupted her unceremoniously with a look of contempt:
"Don't dream! No matter how beautiful she is, it's still possible for Su to support her for a while, marry her? Can someone like the Su family marry an actress?"
What he thought was the most impossible thing turned out to be true, and he really opened his eyes!
But at this time, when he learned that Morning Star was Li Sizhi's sister, Meng Xiang suddenly took this matter for granted, he looked at Li Sizhi and smiled: "Sister Li, you can't blame me for being vulgar, it's true that your family is hiding it too tightly, if I knew that she was your sister, I would definitely believe Tian Tian immediately." ”
"Cut! Meng Xiang, you are vulgar!" Li Sizhi unceremoniously made up his mind before explaining to a table of people:
"When Su married her, Morningstar didn't have anything to do with our family, after they were together, because our family was related to the Su family, Su took her to our house as a guest, my grandmother saw Morningstar's clear eyes and pure temperament, she liked her very, very much, and saw that her big eyes were a little similar to mine, so she recognized her as a granddaughter, this is the real relationship between me and Morningstar, which is like you think, Su married her because she is my sister?!"
After giving Morning Star a head in public, Li Sizhi has been thinking about how to explain her relationship with Morning Star to everyone, the truth must not be said, but it can't be all nonsense, and it must be in line with Morning Star's resume, she thought about it, and could only say it according to Uncle's original idea.
Zhang Zhaohui and Wang Mao both nodded secretly, thinking that Li Sizhi's statement was very much like the truth, Chenxing had contact with the Li family because of the relationship between the Su family, and then voted for the old man's fate, or it may be that the Li family wanted to deepen the relationship with the Su family, so they recognized Chenxing as their granddaughter.
Otherwise, how could Li Sizhi's sister have been doing "Beijing Drifting" for four years and have been playing Xiaolong?
Although Meng Xiang didn't want to believe this, Li Sizhi was convincing, and Chenxing was a public figure, and his background was clear, so it was impossible for Li Sizhi to tell such a big lie, so he could only say that he really looked away, this Jiang Chenxing may indeed be a girl with something extraordinary.
But he still glared back at Tian Tian, Tian Tian knew what he meant, and said in his heart, I didn't dare to think about it, I really didn't dare to think about it!
After Cai Sicheng listened to Li Sizhi's words, he immediately complimented: "Sister Li, your sister has a really good temperament, just like your own sister, no wonder Su Ken married her, don't tell you, I just asked like that, also under the guise that if she doesn't have a boyfriend, I want to pursue it and try, it seems that I don't have this opportunity!"
Li Sizhi said in her heart, of course you don't have a chance, but with her familiarity, of course she won't hit people, and she also said to him very seriously: "Sicheng, you are very discerning, my sister is really loved by everyone." ”
Meng Xiang secretly scolded the dead friend in his heart: It's like the truth, you just want to support her for a while, you really marry her and see if your father will break your legs?
Zhang Zhaohui was very happy at the meal, feeling that Chenxing was really his nobleman, and there was a powerful sister like Li Sizhi to help the crew, and he finally solved this problem satisfactorily according to the requirements of the old one; Meng Xiang was also very satisfied, although he admitted it, but he finally did not let things develop in the worst direction, and it can be regarded as a gain and a loss.
After eating this meal, Meng Xiang and Cai Sicheng both felt bored, so they took their people back immediately under the pretext that there was something in the capital, Li Sizhi followed Zhang Zhaohui and the director to the set to watch Morning Star filming, and in between Morning Star's filming, Li Sizhi told Morning Star about her mother's phone call, and Morning Star urged her to go back quickly:
"Sister Sizhi, you and Alvin go back to the capital, let your grandparents and uncle meet him, I guess they will be satisfied, my illness has been cured, you thank grandma for me, tell her that I will eat well in the future!"
Li Sizhi knows that Morning Star's drama in the past two days is very tight, she may interfere with Morning Star here, and she really needs to determine the relationship with Alvin as soon as possible, everyone is not young, especially her, if the marriage is not finalized for a day, the family's urging to marry will not stop, after she and Morning Star came back from abroad after the New Year, her grandmother asked her father to give her a big vacation, and the family went all out to introduce her to her, and she was almost annoyed to death on a blind date!
Li Sizhi booked a flight at seven o'clock in the evening, and Morning Star took Mao Zhizhi to send them to the airport, and Li Sizhi and Alvin flew back to the capital at ten o'clock in the evening.
