Chapter 20 Mr. Huo, you dialed the wrong number

Chu Yan pouted in the car and said, "Bo Fan, if you want to invest in a movie, I'll ask my parents to invest in you.

The few hundred million yuan for making a movie is nothing to our Chu family, so why bother to come to Huo Shiyan so early in the morning? "

Bo Fan said: "The film market is not doing well right now, and many films have lost all their money. However, the two films invested by Shi Xi in the past two years by Youzi Film and Television have made a lot of money. After Shi Xi invested in our film project, we don't have to worry about scheduling and promoting it in theaters."

Chu Yan looked at Bo Fan and said, "Bo Fan, I don't want you to beg others so humbly. Isn't it better for us not to make a movie? Anyway, Fan Yan has already established a firm foothold in the entertainment industry."

Bo Fan stretched out his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Mi Chen is about to go public, and its market value is estimated to be 100 billion. Fan Yan has encountered a cold winter in the film and television industry in the past two years, and its revenue has been very unsatisfactory. It urgently needs the success of these two big-budget movies to restore Fan Yan's reputation..."

While one's own failure is terrible, one's brother's success is even more worrying.

If it wasn't Gu Hanchen, but Chu Lin or Yu Qiao, Bo Fan wouldn't be in such a hurry to make two big-budget movies to prove his ability.

Gu Hanchen has always been a playboy and a dandy, and he even got into Jiangda's international class by just barely getting by.

When Gu Hanchen founded Michen, no one in the Jiangcheng circle was optimistic about it until two years ago when he bought the Lintian Building that was sold by the Bo family and renamed it Michen Building.

Gu Hanchen's success can be said to be stress-free for brothers of the same age.

The two movies that Bo Fan is going to invest in now can be said to be Fan Yan's comeback works, and not all of Fan Yan's liquid funds can be invested in them.

Bo Fan was unwilling to ask the Chu family for investment. Firstly, the Chu family was a traditional energy company and had nothing to do with the entertainment industry, so they could only give money.

Secondly, if the movie does not meet expectations, he will never be able to raise his head in front of Chu Yan.

But Shixi is different. Shixi invests in the Internet industry and can provide not only money but also resources.

Chu Yan pouted: "Mi Chen is about to go public, and it is not certain whether it can ring the bell successfully, but Fan Yan has already gone public.

Bo Fan, if you need me, I can call my parents right now. Huo Shiyan is not the only one in the world who can invest in you. Why do you have to come to Huo Shiyan like a beggar early in the morning to beg for food? "

Bo Fan frowned and said, "Chu Yan! Huo Shiyan's investment will be the best solution for Fan Yan."

Chu Yan also knew that the beggar's words were wrong. She put her arm around Bo Fan and said, "I just feel sorry for you. Wake me up tomorrow morning and I'll come with you to wait for Huo Shiyan."

……

The second top floor of Shiyi Hotel.

Yuan Xi slowly opened her eyes and fumbled for her cell phone. When she turned it on, she found that it had been turned off without her knowing and even the alarm didn't ring.

It's already half past eight in the morning.

Yuan Xi glanced at the message on her phone, and when she stood up she realized that she was wearing a men's silk shirt. She vaguely remembered that she fell asleep in a bathrobe yesterday.

So it was Huo Shiyan who changed her clothes?

Seeing that Huo Shiyan was sleeping soundly next to him, Yuan Xi got out of bed carefully, went to the bathroom, and changed his clothes.

He left the room without disturbing Huo Shiyan.

Michen was only a little over one kilometer away from the Shiyi Hotel, so Yuan Xi planned to walk straight there.

As soon as Yuan Xi arrived downstairs at the hotel, he saw a familiar Rolls-Royce, which was Bo Fan's car.

Chu Yan saw Yuan Xi in the car, got out of the car and looked at Yuan Xi and said, "Sister, did you stay in the hotel yesterday? You should have told me earlier. I asked my parents to get you a room, but you refused. The presidential suite here is much more spacious and comfortable than an ordinary room."

Bo Fan also came forward and greeted, "Yuan Xi, good morning."

Yuan Xi chuckled and said, "Good morning, I'm going to work."

"Wait." Bo Fan looked at Yuan Xi, "You have met Huo Shiyan, right?"

Yuan Xi was slightly stunned, "Yeah."

Bo Fan handed over his cell phone and said, "Can you see if Huo Shiyan is among these people?"

Yuan Xi looked at the customers that Bo Fan had photographed leaving the hotel early in the morning. Yuan Xi shook his head without looking carefully, "Mr. Huo is not here. Do you have anything to say to Mr. Huo? I can help you convey it."

Chu Yan said repeatedly: "I have some business cooperation to discuss with Mr. Huo."

Chu Yan didn't want Yuan Xi to think that they came to Huo Shiyan early in the morning to ask for investment. Fan Yan was just experiencing a cold winter in the film and television industry, and it wasn't that he was done.

Bo Fan looked at Yuan Xi and said, "Yuan Xi, do you have a photo of Mr. Huo?"

Yuan Xi thought about it and realized that yes, there was a photo of them on the marriage certificate.

But for public reasons, Gu Hanchen asked her not to reveal Mr. Huo's identity.

Personally, Yuan Xi did not want to expose Huo Shiyan's identity. After all, they were now a "family". If Fan Yan was seeking investment from Shixi, Huo Shiyan would not be able to refuse. However, Yuan Xi did not want to owe Huo Shiyan a favor because of Chu Yan.

After all, although they are husband and wife, they are not familiar with each other.

Yuan Xi said, "I'm sorry. I have photos but I can't give them to you. Mr. Gu told me not to expose Mr. Huo's whereabouts. It's time for me to go to work, so I'll leave first."

Chu Yan looked at Yuan Xi's back and sneered, "Look how capable she is to know Huo Shiyan, and she still said that she can't give us Huo Shiyan's photo.

Our movie will surely be a big hit at the box office. If President Huo knows that he missed such a good project because of her, it would be strange if he didn’t blame her.”

Bo Fan continued to wait downstairs in the hotel. After waiting for a long time, he did not see any young man who looked like Huo Shiyan leaving the hotel.

It was almost noon when Chu Yan saw a man walking out of the hotel.

Chu Yan touched Bo Fan with her arm in the car and said, "It's Yuan Xi's husband. He is really petty and small-minded. He left when it was almost time to check out. He was unwilling to waste even a little time."

Bo Fan said softly: "Yan Yan, there is no need to focus on this kind of person, understand?"

Chu Yan nodded and said, "Yes."

……

Yuan Xi was very busy this morning. Her original working hours were 007, but now they have become eight hours, and there are many things that she can hardly finish.

When it was almost time for lunch, looking at the pile of documents on the OA and the red dots in the mailbox, Yuan Xi regretted asking not to work overtime.

"Yuan Xi! The Chu family is holding a homecoming party for you tomorrow, why didn't you invite me earlier?"

Gu Hanchen came over with an invitation, "It was Chu Lin who sent it to me."

Yuan Xi said: "You have a meeting tomorrow night."

Gu Hanchen smiled at Yuan Xi and said, "Put aside that meeting. I have to go to your homecoming banquet to save your face! I heard that your husband also attended Si Chen's wedding last night. If I had known, I would have left earlier to see what your pretty husband looks like!"

Yuan Xi was busy dealing with emails.

"Will your pretty husband come to your homecoming party tomorrow?"

"Gu Hanchen, don't call him a gigolo! He is not a gigolo."

Gu Hanchen reached out and knocked on Yuan Xi's head. "If he's not a gigolo, then you're just in love. Is it worth it for you to give up your career for a man in the village? You don't work and rely on your husband for support, and eat potatoes and tomatoes every day? Even your cows are so thin that their shoulders are right angles?"

Yuan Xi: "I don't plan to give up my career. I just want to find a job that works from 9 to 5 with two days off a week, so that I can balance work and spending time with my children. Besides, my husband's family doesn't raise cattle..."

Gu Hanchen: "I have to go and see which pretty boy has made you like this tomorrow?"

Yuan Xi's cell phone rang.

Gu Hanchen glanced at the note and saw that it was from Huo Shiyan. "Huo Shiyan? Why did he call you? He is really free. Shixi has invested in so many companies, and he has to keep an eye on me, Mi Chen, right? He might as well send someone to replace me as the president. Go ahead and answer the phone."

Gu Hanchen swiped the answer button and pressed the speaker button. Huo Shiyan's mellow voice came from the phone:
"Come to the garage. I asked the chef to make sweet and sour pork ribs for you."

Gu Hanchen raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Huo, did you call the wrong number?"
