Chapter 181: Too Many Women Are Troublesome
Mai Danxiong was directly stunned when he heard this.
Listening to the tone of Lin Xi's speech just now, it should be the first time he and Cen Jianxun have met, so it is too hasty to entrust such an important position as the theater manager to the other party?
Fortunately, Mai Danxiong is not an ordinary person, and he was only slightly surprised when he heard this, and then a bolder idea popped up in his heart.
Cen Jianxun is just the editor-in-chief of a magazine and can be favored by Lin Xi, is he not impossible to replace?
Thinking of this, Mai Danxiong suddenly became arrogant.
Mai Danxiong didn't know that the Cen Jianxun he despised was not an ordinary person.
In normal time and space, Shum Jianxun often appears on the big screen as a harlequin, and he is known as "Golden Harvest Double Fool" with Wu Yaohan. However, it would be a big mistake to be really stupid, after the establishment of Debao, he can share the world with Jiahe and Xinyicheng, and the nominal coach is Hong Jinbao, but the person who is actually at the helm as president is Cen Jianxun. Debao took over the Shaw Brothers cinema business, and Cen Jianxun himself served as the general manager, and acting was just his hobby.
Cen Jianxun is very powerful, and his wife Liu Tianlan, who is standing next to him, also has a great background.
Winner of Miss Vancouver Chinatown in 1978, she worked as a contract artist on TVB, and in addition to acting in front of the camera, she also worked as a film assistant and assistant director, and her diverse career included makeup artist, model, artist, singer, assistant film director, and executive editor of Extra Magazine.
The couple's qualifications combined are not much better than Mai Danxiong.
Lin Xi actually played the idea of buying one and getting one free, and took Cen Jianxun under his command, and Liu Tianlan could naturally be used by him.
It's a pity that Cen Jianxun has not yet started to contact the film industry, and he is not fully sure whether he can do a good job in this industry, so he hesitated in the face of Lin Xi's invitation.
Mai Danxiong, who was standing aside and "eavesdropping", was anxious for Cen Jianxun, if it was him, he would agree without thinking about it, why do you need to think about it for so long.
At this time, Liu Tianlan spoke.
"Mr. Lin, do you think this matter can make us wait a little longer before giving you an answer? After all, it's a bit sudden, whether it's responsible for Mr. Lin or ourselves, we need a little more time to think about it. ”
"Mrs. Shum reminded me that I was anxious about this matter. The two of you can think about it slowly, and until I find a more suitable general manager than Mr. Shun, the promises made just now will be valid. ”
Lin Xi's attitude moved Cen Jianxun greatly, and nodded that he would definitely consider it seriously after going back, and strive to give Lin Xi an answer as soon as possible.
Lin Xi raised his glass, "Then I'll wait for good news!" ”
Cen Jianxun and his wife raised a glass together and drank with Lin Xi.
Mai Danxiong saw that the conversation had already been finished here, so he gave Cheng Long a look, and prepared to go over after adjusting his collar.
At this time, Lin Xi's mouth suddenly came out of his mouth: "By the way, Mr. Cen, I want to make a movie in a while, there is a role in it that I think is quite suitable for you, are you interested in making a cameo?" ”
Mai Danxiong reacted quickly enough to be able to restrain the steps he was about to take, but Cen Jianxun was not as lucky as him, and he took his feet back stiffly, and one of them did not stand firmly, and almost fell.
"Is Mr. Cen okay?"
Zhao Yazhi looked at it with concern, and glared at Lin Xi by the way, complaining that he shouldn't have carried out this kind of surprise attack.
Cen Jianxun wiped the wine that he accidentally spilled on his body just now with a tissue, but said on his lips: "It's okay! It's okay! ”
"I also had an idea that popped up suddenly, who would have thought that Mr. Cen would react so much."
Lin Xi pursed his lips, his tone full of apologies.
Taking advantage of Lin Xi's apology, Cen Jianxun and Liu Tianlan quickly exchanged glances.
"Mr. Lin, you weren't joking just now, were you? I've never acted in a movie, is that really okay? ”
"How do you know if you don't try? Besides, that role doesn't actually need much acting skills, the main thing is that the image is suitable. ”
Seeing that Lin Xi said so casually, Cen Jianxun was a little disappointed, it seemed that Lin Xi was not looking for him to play an important role.
But that's fine, you won't be able to cope with it, and you won't be embarrassed when the time comes.
"Thanks to Mr. Lin, then I might as well obey my fate."
"Okay, when the script is officially completed, I'll contact Mr. Cen again."
After Lin Xi and Cen Jianxun finished chatting, a waiter happened to pass by.
Lin Xi put the wine glass into the tray in the other party's hand and made a standard invitation dance move to Zhao Yazhi.
"Oops!"
When Mai Danxiong realized that the situation was not good, it was too late, and he could only watch Lin Xi and Zhao Yazhi walk onto the dance floor.
Seeing this, Cheng Long could only shrug his shoulders at Mai Danxiong, saying that he couldn't help either.
When the two of them were in a hurry outside, Lin Xi had already gently wrapped her around Zhao Yazhi's waist and took her around the dance floor.
Zhao Yazhi's eyes fell in love with Lin Xi's face, tilted his head slightly, threw his thick and smooth black hair to the side, and looked curiously at the direction where Cen Jianxun and his wife were standing outside the dance floor: "You really came up to him to act in a movie with Cen Jianxun?" ”
Lin Xi turned his body elegantly and took Zhao Yazhi into his arms with his dance steps.
"Why do you ask this question?"
Zhao Yazhi spun around and separated from Lin Xi, and smiled back at him.
"Because I always feel like you did it on purpose. It's fake that you want to ask him to be the general manager of the theater chain, it's true to ask him to make a movie, he refused the first invitation, so naturally there is no way to refuse the second invitation, am I right? ”
Lin Xi took Zhao Yazhi's hand and let her start to spin in circles.
"You only guessed half right, it's true that I invited Cen Jianxun to be the theater manager, and it's also true that I asked him to make a movie, but I knew that he wouldn't agree to the first invitation at the beginning, so I made a second invitation, and it was much easier for everyone to cooperate once first, and then it would be much easier to subdue him."
Zhao Yazhi's body leaned into Lin Xi's arms again, and she glanced at him with sweeping eyes.
"I don't know why you have so many ideas in your head?"
"No matter how many ideas I have, I can't hide from Sister Zhi's eyes?" Lin Xi sniffed the fragrance of Zhao Yazhi's bun, put it in her ear and said, "I'm homeless tonight, can you take me into your house for the night?" ”
"If you want to be beautiful, dance with me enough first, and then ......" Zhao Yayi hugged Lin Xi's waist tightly, walked a few steps quickly, and the black skirt swirled in a beautiful circle, attracting the frequent attention of the men in the venue.
The two danced enough, and then walked out of the dance floor together, and were about to take a break on the sofa next to them, when Guan Zhilin, who was wearing a white off-the-shoulder dress, had already walked over.
"Mr. Lin, can I ask you to dance?"
Lin Xi was about to refuse, but Zhao Yazhi spoke first and agreed for him.
"Jump, I'll go over there and rest."
Lin Xi was helpless, so she had to take Guan Zhilin's hand and walk onto the dance floor again.
Cheng Long looked at Lin Xi who was dancing with Guan Zhilin on the dance floor with some envy, "Mr. Mai, if you don't forget it today, Mr. Lin's dance will probably not stop today, or I will take you directly to the company to meet him another day." ”
Mai Danxiong asked a little unwillingly: "Mr. Lin likes to dance very much?" ”
Cheng Long said in the direction of the dance floor, "It's not that he likes to dance, it's that others like to dance with him." ”
In the middle of the dance floor, Guan Zhilin leaned into Lin Xi's arms with the help of dance steps, raised her head and secretly glanced at him.
"Mr. Lin, I think you have always had an opinion about me."
The voice was a little coquettish.
Lin Xi also had a headache in the face of Guan Zhilin's questioning, he knew in his heart that this woman was very tricky, so he didn't want to have too intimate behavior with her, he didn't expect this woman to be so sensitive, and he noticed the faint alienation in his attitude.
"If I have a problem with you, how can I keep you in the company?"
"Then why is it that my role is not as good as Miss Zhong every time I act?"
Guan Zhilin squeezed her body towards Lin Xi's body, and almost the whole person was about to stick up.
Lin Xi interrupted very unceremoniously: "This is the need for film shooting, as a member of the company, what you should think about now is not how to compare with others, but how to improve yourself, don't forget what I told you in the crew of "Chu Liuxiang", opportunities are always only reserved for those who are prepared!" ”
Guan Zhilin looked at Lin Xi with some grievances, "But my current role doesn't have much room for acting skills." ”
Lin Xi interrupted Guan Zhilin again, and there was already a hint of impatience in his tone.
"You want to play with space? Okay, there is really no room for the role of the kitten in "The Frog Prince", but Yun Piaopiao is a test of acting skills, since you take the initiative to ask, then you can play this role, go back and talk to Wang Jing, let him switch the roles of you and Chen Yulian. ”
I thought Guan Zhilin would be even more reluctant, but I didn't expect her to just say "oh" obediently, and she actually agreed.
After the two danced a song, Lin Xi was afraid that Guan Zhilin would continue to entangle, so he had to look for rescuers in the crowd.
Seeing Lin Xi looking over here, Cheng Long and Mai Danxiong were about to raise their hands, but they didn't expect Lin Xi's gaze to stop beside the two.
Cheng Long and Mai Danxiong turned their heads depressedly and saw Zhong Chuhong wearing a red sexy dress and long skirt, standing there, looking towards the dance floor with a smile on his face.
After finding an excuse to separate from Guan Zhilin, Lin Xi walked directly towards the position where Zhong Chuhong was standing.
"Can I invite you to do a dance?"
Lin Xi gracefully stretched out his hand and made a beautiful European court ceremony.
"Of course!"
Zhong Chuhong smiled and put his hand on Lin Xi's warm palm, and bent his knees on the spot to return the salute.
Lin Xi grabbed Zhong Chuhong's hand, pulled her up, and the two walked towards the dance floor together.
"Hmph, I also said that I have no opinion on others, and I hurried to find another woman after a dance!" Guan Zhilin saw this scene in her eyes, and she was secretly unhappy in her heart.
"Guan Guan, why are you alone, Lin Xi?" Zhao Yazhi's voice came from behind him.
Guan Zhilin turned around, and a sweet smile immediately changed on her face, Lin Xi took the initiative to invite Zhong Chuhong to dance, but when it came to her mouth, it became Zhong Chuhong taking the initiative to invite Lin Xi to dance.
Seeing that Zhao Yazhi frowned slightly after hearing this, and her eyes were different, Guan Zhilin couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in her heart.
She couldn't influence Lin Xi, but she could find a way to destroy Zhong Chuhong's impression in Zhao Yazhi's heart, and then use Zhao Yazhi's hand to suppress her competitors. R1152
