Chapter 177: The first head-to-head confrontation
The invitation to the dinner is also with Xia Li, but fortunately, Lu Zhi is also a celebrity in the circle since his identity was accidentally announced by Bai Qingqing last semester, and his popularity has been high, even if he doesn't take the invitation, he can brush his face to enter.
Once inside, he went straight to the point, greeted the organizers, and told them he was coming.
The organizer is a well-known magazine in the industry, claiming to have a circulation of more than 100 million in a single month, although I don't know if it really exceeds 100 million, but it is certain that the influence is indeed very large. In the past few years, the print media has encountered an underestimation of development, and the magazine has also switched from offline to online for the first time, and every time it reports, it will trigger a boom. Whether it is in the entertainment industry, the game circle, or the business circle, no one dares to mess with them easily.
Lu Zhi found Su Rui, the editor-in-chief of the magazine and the founder of this media group, and stretched out his hand to him and said: "Editor-in-chief Su, when we meet for the first time, I am Lu Zhi, president of Erxiang Group. ”
Su Rui wore a suit and leather collar, smiled kindly, shook hands with Lu Zhi, and said: "Mr. Xia called me this morning to apologize, saying that he was unwell and couldn't come, but I didn't expect Mr. Lu to come over in person." He paused, looked Lu Zhi up and down, and said: "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be so young, he has such an act, I was still talking to investors about your new project just now, your eyes are also poisonous, Shen Bingqing, who has been praised recently, is the type that is most lacking in the film market now, and we are looking forward to your next move." ”
Lu Zhi said modestly: "Editor-in-chief Su has a reputation, and the second elephant can have today, which is inseparable from the foundation laid by Wang Mingyu in the early stage, and I am just taking a ride." ”
"Haha, Mr. Lu is humble." Su Rui smiled, his eyes looked at Lin Momo beside him, he knew that Lin Momo was Lu Zhi's girlfriend, but it seemed that he was an ordinary college student, and he was a little restrained on this occasion, and he didn't seem to be able to let go, so he didn't say anything to her, just smiled at her.
Lin Momo also felt his kindness, so he also smiled back.
"Editor-in-Chief Su, you're busy, so we won't bother." After Lu Zhi finished talking to him, he took Lin Momo to find a place to sit.
He could feel that Lin Momo seemed to be a little unsuitable for such an occasion, so he didn't take her to say hello to others, so he took her to find a corner to sit down and wait for the charity party to start.
By the way, I looked at the people here, he almost knew all the investors, and even if he didn't usually communicate, he had paid attention to their circles, and most of the investors were centered on Mr. Wang, chatting about something with a smile.
People in the film and television industry are in groups, some stars and directors are chatting, and some are pulling in producers, which looks very lively.
Then Lu Zhi also noticed some people who looked familiar but couldn't hand in their names, most of them were recently emerging Internet celebrities, and their faces were similar, and he couldn't tell who was who. He saw Zhao Jiayu's ex-girlfriend smiling, following a rich second generation, and also saw a little star who was also an Internet celebrity in the e-sports circle and later successfully transformed, and he was also very active.
Lin Momo was a little cramped and uneasy, but he also felt that Lu Zhi had been accompanying him here, and it didn't seem to be very good, so he struggled for a moment and asked, "Senior brother, do you want to talk to investors?" Sister Yu said that their resources are very important......"
"It's okay, they're not stupid, they will be invested in us by saying two good words and brushing their faces a few times, not just talking to brush up their good feelings." Lu Zhi took Lin Momo's hand, put her hand on his lap, and whispered: "I let you come to this occasion to wronged you, but I don't want to come alone without you, I will push these things in the future." ”
Lin Momo was moved in his heart, Lu Zhi really thought about her everywhere.
She looked at Lu Zhi and shook her head: "It's okay, I'm not ignorant, just if you have any social entertainment that you need to participate in in the future." ”
"Fool, I say this because I don't like to socialize myself." After he finished speaking, his eyes looked at Shen Bingqing, who was talking to a director not far away, she was really radiant, not only surrounded by first-line filmmakers, but also a few big bosses who didn't look like good people not far away.
"Shen Bingqing is a good hand at socializing, but now it's still a little embarrassing to come out to socialize with this kind of identity......" Lu Zhi said to himself,
After all, a MV has just been released, and there are no other works, and it is not considered to be in a high position in Erxiang, whether it is as a star or as a representative of Erxiang, it is a little unqualified.
Lin Momo also looked back, Shen Bingqing's demeanor was elegant and generous, not at all like a student who had not yet graduated, compared to her, I don't know how many times more mature she was......
While the two were talking, Shen Bingqing seemed to have finished talking to the people over there, she began to look around, as if she was looking for something, and then her eyes were fixed on Lu Zhi and Lin Momo, who were sitting in the corner, so she walked slowly with a smile on her face, sat down next to Lu Zhi, and said hello to the two of them.
"Mr. Lu, Captain Lin, you are also here, why are you sitting here?"
She smiled without hostility, although Lin Momo didn't pinch it in her heart, it was not easy to show anything.
Lu Zhi stretched out his hand and gently hugged Lin Momo's shoulder, and said to Shen Bingqing: "Momo is a little uncomfortable, so I am here to accompany her." If you have any star directors you are interested in, you can meet them yourself, and other entertainment companies can also meet them, you don't have to think about us, it doesn't matter. ”
"That's not good, the main owner of our second elephant is sitting here, and it's not good for me, a little newcomer with an unjustified name, to be in the limelight everywhere." Shen Bingqing glanced at Lin Momo and asked with concern, "Momo, where are you uncomfortable?" It's a little windy at night, I see you're wearing a lot of clothes, are you freezing? ”
It's uncomfortable to see you...... Lin Mo slandered.
But Shen Bingqing didn't care much about her, she was decent and generous everywhere, and there was no rudeness anywhere.
Lin Momo replied politely: "I don't think so, it's just that I'm too tired today, I'll just rest for a while." ”
"Captain Lin is very dedicated, e-sports training must be very hard, so tired and accompanied Mr. Lu out to participate in the party, if the company has excellent employees, it will definitely be yours." Shen Bingqing praised.
Lin Momo smiled and didn't say anything.
At this time, Su Rui came over again and said to Lu Zhi: "Mr. Lu, there is a link tonight, which is to bid for a priceless red wine, and when the time comes, we need you to come to the stage as a guest to help us host it, just enliven the auction atmosphere." I told Mr. Xia about this before, but Mr. Xia didn't come, I don't know if she told you? ”
...... Xia Li didn't tell him anything, this person is really, the communiqué is a personal vendetta, fortunately Su Rui came over and said it, otherwise he would have called him to the stage directly, he had no preparation, it would definitely not work.
But Lu Zhi still said good things about Xia Li here, otherwise it would be known that the relationship between the two bosses of Erxiang was not good, and there would definitely be a bad impact when it was spread.
He hurriedly nodded and said, "Xia Li has told me, I'm ready." ”
"Cheng, then it's up to you to play." After Su Rui finished speaking, he left with a smile.
Then the party officially began, and Lu Zhi was glad that the first guest to host on stage was not him, and he could still see what others did without preparation, and he would be improvised.
The first auction item was a Qing Dynasty vase, donated by a folk artist, with proceeds going to international relief for children recently displaced by war in a Middle Eastern country.
The host is Shi Tongtong, the daughter of Dongfang SG Shi Zong, that is, Zhang Tao's wife of the second marriage, after their divorce, Shi Tongtong began to come out and walk around, it is estimated that her father Shi Xiuyi has given up on finding a capable and obedient husband for his daughter to inherit Dongfang SG, and directly let Shi Tongtong come out.
In the end, the product was auctioned at a price of 6 million, and after Su Rui took the stage to thank the stars who participated in this link, he invited Lu Zhi to the stage.
Compared with Shi Tongtong, Lu Zhi is just a young man, but fortunately, his ability is obvious to all.
He did not have stage fright, and invited some star artists to the stage to fight according to the process, mainly to enliven the auction atmosphere.
Originally, the game was about to start, and suddenly a person raised his hand, and then the staff handed him the microphone, and he teased: "Mr. Lu, your two leading Hua Dan, Xia Li and Shen Bingqing, are not on the stage, there is no sincerity." ”
Lu Zhi recognized this person as the president of a real estate company, a typical nouveau riche, when Shen Bingqing was talking to others just now, he saw this person looking at Shen Bingqing with a thief's eyes, probably what he wanted to do.
After that person said it, many people began to coax, and Su Rui also said: "Xia Li asked for leave with me today, I really can't come in time, but Mr. Lu brought Shen Bingqing over, shall we invite her to the stage?" ”
Then, the audience erupted in applause.
Shen Bingqing didn't twist, got up, and walked to the stage generously, she was not modest, she went up directly and stood in the middle of many stars, which is the legendary "C position", it is said that only big names can stand in this position.
Lu Zhi was slightly confused, Shen Bingqing is very ambitious. He liked that the employees of his company were ambitious, and even began to applaud Shen Bingqing in his heart. But in the current situation, she can only come over to be a foil, because the stars behind her are all from the same entertainment company except her, and they may have already discussed who they want to let come forward, it is estimated that it is the person who was originally standing in the C position and is now being squeezed aside by Shen Bingqing, she is the person who has recently been supported by the entertainment company.
Then this round of fighting began, the process was to sing and dance, and after that, encourage the bosses who may pay for the money below, and let them pay for this bottle of red wine.
Everyone also knows in their hearts, after the first few performances, the agitation is all the people below whose economic strength is not the top, and they want to leave the final word to the person who wants to become popular.
As a result, Shen Bingqing sang before the newcomer, and after singing, her eyes swept around the audience, and then fell on the head of the old Mr. Wang, she smiled slightly and said to him: "Mr. Wang, why don't you add another five million and buy this bottle of red wine?" ”
As soon as she said this, the star who hadn't started to perform behind her was almost out of control.
Lu Zhi was also slightly surprised...... I don't know where Shen Bingqing's confidence came from, so he went to Lao Wang to ask for money.
A little bit of a little bit of a little star should also know that Lao Wang always has to make the finale.
Everyone was almost holding their breath, waiting for Mr. Wang's reaction.
