Chapter 18 Testing
Hand over the business card with both hands and be servile.
Xie Jingwei didn't answer, just glanced at it.
Hanjiang Culture and Entertainment Co., Ltd.?
Stick.
No wonder I heard him speak Cantonese funny and Mandarin awkward that day, it turns out he is a Chinese thief who is not good at copying others.
Cui Pingan saw that Xie Jingwei didn't say anything, his face turned cold for no reason, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued: "Mr. Xie, you, you like that girl, right?"
Say it.
He pointed at Shen Nanxi.
Xie Jingwei's eyes moved, and the sharpness was reduced. The sense of oppression from above was still there, but not as terrifying as before: "Hmm?"
Get a response.
Cui Pingan was delighted and immediately said, "Mr. Xie, I have a way to get that girl to accompany you for one night."
Xie Jingwei blinked gently, said nothing, and waited for Cui Ping'an's next words.
Cui Ping'an approached Xie Jingwei and took out a small transparent plastic bag from his pocket.
There was a small white tablet in the bag.
Cui Pingan said: "Mr. Xie, as long as you give this to the girl, she will listen to you and you can do whatever you want. Don't worry, when she wakes up the next day, she won't remember anything and will never damage your reputation."
"So magical?"
Xie Jingwei took the small pill and looked at it carefully.
Cui Ping'an said flatteringly: "If you don't believe me, Mr. Xie, I can try it for you."
"Try?" Xie Jingwei looked at him.
He immediately said: "Don't worry, I won't touch that girl, I mean, other girls."
Xie Jingwei smiled and said, "This thing has harmed many people, right?"
Cui Ping'an hesitated and didn't dare to answer.
Xie Jingwei raised his eyebrows slightly, and his smile deepened: "What would happen if a man ate it?"
Cui Ping'an was stunned, his mind was a little confused.
Xie Jingwei looked at him with a smile, without saying a word. In his deep phoenix eyes, there was a hint of something different, waiting for him to comprehend.
His pupils dilated slightly, as if he understood something. Now was not the time to be surprised, so he quickly returned to normal and assured solemnly: "It's the same for everyone!"
"Row."
Xie Jingwei happily put the pills in his pocket and walked away.
Cui Ping'an stopped him again: "Mr. Xie." He held up a business card in his hand.
Xie Jingwei: "You want to ask me for help?"
Cui Ping'an nodded eagerly.
Xie Jingwei: "How many pills are there?"
Cui Ping'an touched his pocket and took out all the pills: "There are still two."
Xie Jingwei took them all and took the business card with him: "Wait."
Cui Pingan was ecstatic, thinking that this time he had hope for expanding his business! He walked with confidence, returned to his seat, and started to get closer to the people at the same table.
Xie Jingwei did not return to his seat immediately.
He found a relatively secluded location, took out his cell phone and called Xie Ning.
He handed the business card and pills to Xie Ning: "It's something new, give it a try."
It goes without saying who is taking the test.
Xie Ning took it: "Yes, Mr. Xie."
Xie Jingwei took a glass of red wine from the waiter, took a sip, and said faintly: "He Weisheng has a pig farm in the Dinosaur Pit, throw him in there."
Xie Ning stroked the business card, looking embarrassed: "Mr. Xie, pigs are omnivores."
It would be bad if someone died.
Xie Jingwei smiled nonchalantly: "Then find him a gentle little pig."
Xie Ning had already advised him once, so he must not do it a second time. Looking at the three small pills in his hand, he asked, "Mr. Xie, should we give them all to him?"
Xie Jingwei: "There are two pieces left. They will be used when we throw them at the police station."
The meaning is very clear, this person cannot appear in Hong Kong City again.
After explaining everything, Xie Jingwei looked at Shen Nanxi.
I kept a little distance from Chen Jiajun, but there were two more men around me who were attentively handing out business cards.
He tightened his grip on the wine glass and continued to instruct, "In the future, people like this are not allowed to appear around Madam."
The wine tasting ended and the charity auction began.
There are five lots in total, all of which are wines from world-renowned wineries with the best vintages and the highest quality.
The starting prices all start in five figures.
There were quite a few wealthy people among the guests attending the banquet, and they quickly raised the price from five figures to six figures, but this was far from enough, and people kept bidding higher.
Shen Nanxi is not interested in wine, but Jiang Wanrou likes to drink red wine, and there is a bottle that suits her taste.
Shen Nanxi wants to buy it.
only……
Kang Ruimin had been staring at her from the opposite side.
If she bids, will Kang Ruimin follow suit?
She doesn't like to look at prices when buying things, but she doesn't want to be cheated either.
Soon it was the turn of the bottle of red wine.
The starting price is 20,000.
Shen Nanxi hesitated for a moment, but still raised her hand: "Fifty thousand."
In charity auctions, the rules are very casual, as long as you can afford the price, you can bid any amount.
"One hundred thousand!"
Sure enough, Kang Ruimin called out the price and raised her chin towards her arrogantly.
Shen Nanxi: "150,000."
Kang Ruimin: "Two hundred thousand."
When Shen Nanxi was about to bid, someone interrupted and bid "five hundred thousand".
Shen Nanxi looked in the direction of the voice.
The man was sitting at the opposite table, wearing a black suit. He blended into the dim light and his appearance could not be seen clearly.
All I know is the outline of his face from the side: confident and assertive, yet as cold and hard as steel.
Kang Ruimin glanced at Shen Nanxi and said, "Are you still screaming?" Her eyes were full of contempt.
"One million." Xie Jingwei pulled out a chair and sat down, raising his hand casually.
Ji Yuan asked very cleverly: "Hero saves the beauty? Please your wife?"
Xie Jingwei: "Get lost!" His eyes curved with indescribable joy.
Kang Ruimin looked over Ji Yuan's shoulder at Xie Jingwei, and saw that his eyes were fixed on Shen Nanxi, and she even gave him a coquettish look.
She was so angry that she was grinding her teeth.
He didn't care about anything else, and took a deep breath, bidding with Xie Jingwei: "One million and two hundred thousand!"
As soon as her voice came out, there was silence for three seconds.
Xie Jingwei is a man with a domineering personality. There is nothing he cannot get if he wants it.
It was a spectacle that someone dared to bid against him, attracting everyone's attention.
At first glance, it was Kang Ruimin.
Everyone suddenly understood and showed an expression of "I understand" at the same time.
The prince's mole is challenging the prince. If this isn't flirting, what is it?
We've gotten tired of seeing them in the same frame in recent years. Maybe they've already reunited privately, but just haven't made it public. They're just using this as fun to amuse the public.
Several reporters took photos of them.
Tomorrow’s headlines have been decided.
Xie Jingwei looked at Kang Ruimin calmly, not understanding what she was arguing about, and then looked at Shen Nanxi.
The other person has already lowered his head to play with his phone.
Xie Jingwei instantly lost the fun of bidding.
He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Shen Nanxi.
While typing, I heard the sound of bidding behind me.
"1500000."
It was icy cold, like a poisonous snake crawling on the back of my neck.
Xie Jingwei's hand paused on the screen, and it took him a long time to hit the send button.
Without waiting for Shen Nanxi to respond.
He turned to look at the bidder.
The man was also looking at him.
There was an undercurrent as the two looked at each other.
Even after the auction ended and the wine tasting concluded, Xie Jingwei was still savoring the look in that man's eyes.
Get in the car.
The car door closes.
In the dark rear compartment, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The one from the Wang family is back.
The wine tasting is over.
Wen Ping left Shen Nanxi behind, poured her a glass of red wine, and asked casually, "Ms. Shen, do you know Simon?"
Simon is Ji Yuan.
A famous playboy in Hong Kong.
He has a lot of girlfriends, including white-collar workers, anchors, models, celebrities, and socialites.
Wen Ping asked this to test the relationship between Shen Nanxi and Ji Yuan.
If Ji Yuan gets to know such a beautiful woman, he will definitely put some thought into it.
If she were a girlfriend, she would have to consider whether to do Ji Yuan a favor.
The Ji family is not as powerful as the four major families in Hong Kong City, but it should not be underestimated.
The closer they are, the more likely it is that it will help her make a comeback.
Shen Nanxi smiled slightly: "Mr. Ji's girlfriend is an artist in my company. I have met her twice."
The meaning is not familiar.
Wen Ping put the wine glass on the table.
Seeing Shen Nanxi mentioned the word "artist", she smiled meaningfully, "Miss Shen invited Chef Ming to come to Hong Kong to cook, it shouldn't be as simple as 'borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha'."
The word "please" revealed Shen Nanxi's intention.
Shen Nanxi liked her straightforwardness and admitted frankly: "Ms. Wen is really smart. She saw through it at a glance. Indeed, I heard from Kar that Miss Wen wanted to make a comeback when she returned to Hong Kong this time. I wanted to seize the opportunity and sign Miss Wen to my company."
Wen Ping smiled: "Ms. Shen, I do have the idea of making a comeback, but in the days since I returned to Hong Kong, countless agencies have offered me olive branches. Their scale and prospects in the entertainment industry are better than Xihe Entertainment."
"Ms. Shen, are you not competitive enough?"
Shen Nanxi: "Miss Wen, how can a hundred flowers blooming compare to a single flower blooming?"
Wen Ping stared, with a hint of seriousness in her eyes.
With her status, she can get good resources, but her age is a big problem.
In this era of emerging talents, her return is destined to become a green leaf to set off the new generation of young flowers.
Unless, there is a hit drama.
Shen Nanxi: "If you can sign a contract with Xihe, I can assure you that you will have exclusive access to resources in both the mainland and Hong Kong."
"Inland?"
Wen Ping tilted her head slightly.
Shen Nanxi: "Miss Wen may not know that Xihe Entertainment has always focused on the mainland, so it is not well-known in Hong Kong. Hong Kong has many talented people, few resources, and fierce competition. The mainland is different. The economy is rising rapidly, the entertainment market is expanding year by year, and the prosperity is no less than that of Hong Kong in the past. There are also many opportunities."
"The establishment of the Greater Bay Area is a good example. Ms. Wen should know this."
It is a fact that Hong Kong's entertainment industry is gradually declining.
It is not uncommon for artists from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan to go to the mainland to seek new development.
When she returned to Hong Kong, she also thought about signing with a mainland agency.
Unfortunately, after retiring in recent years, my network of contacts is not as good as before. The mainland is a hot commodity, and I need someone to act as a go-between. It’s not that you can sign a contract just by wanting to.
now……
Some people say that it allows her to obtain unique resources in both the mainland and Hong Kong.
It would be fake if you didn't feel moved by this kind of temptation.
But making decisions easily is not her style.
She'll try again.
After all, this return to Hong Kong is her last resort, and she must ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Looking at Shen Nanxi, his words became more cordial: "Estelle, before Mrs. Yao left, she asked me to do something. I wonder if you can help?"
