Chapter 1071: 747 Hippo, Bian Zaide_2
"What are you going down there for?"
Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze from the car window and asked in return.
"Isn’t she about to leave?"
Sending off guests is one of those basic social niceties that even a Taoist nun sister understands.
"Some people do not require a farewell."
Jiang Chen started the car; the S8, known as the Suit Thug, turned around on the spot and drove away from the airport.
From the beginning to the end, Ai Qian didn’t look around, and he harbored no attachment either.
Just as he once told the other person.
Not every encounter leads to an outcome, but every meeting is meaningful.
Although this relationship ended without trouble or strife, Jiang Chen did not regret it nor harbor any resentment.
After all, during certain times when they were together, both were filled with sincerity.
Tanki Liuli wasn’t a curious person, but she keenly sensed that the man driving beside her today was somewhat different.
"Wasn’t her illness cured?"
Jiang Chen, who was driving in silence, turned to her with a surprised look.
As someone who is detached from worldly joys and sorrows, he didn’t expect the other person to still care about him.
Familiarity breeds fondness, this saying is indeed correct.
"Yes, it is cured."
Tanki Liuli fell silent.
While driving, Jiang Chen said, "I’m actually quite happy."
"People who are happy usually smile."
"..."
Jiang Chen was at a loss for words, then let out a chuckle, "I’ve seen you when you’re happy, and your expression isn’t that rich either."
Tanki Liuli quieted down, glancing outside the window.
"From now on, I’ll say you’re a sister from the Qi Family, is that alright?"
Jiang Chen changed the subject.
He thought of various answers, but he didn’t expect to hear: "How old are you?"
Truly simplicity at its finest.
"..."
Jiang Chen was silent for a moment, then turned the steering wheel to overtake, "Twenty-three, surely older than you, right?"
"Mhm."
"..."
"So, you mean, you agree?"
To avoid misunderstandings, Jiang Chen took the initiative to clarify, "You probably also don’t like too many people knowing where you’re from, saying you’re my sister is convenient and simple."
No wonder he suddenly brought it up, this layer of identity was promptly put to use.
Six-star Silvie Hotel.
"Jiang! My friend, I’m absolutely thrilled to be able to see you in Shenzhou!"
Thomas Felton greeted with open arms enthusiastically.
Jiang Chen wasn’t accustomed to Westerners’ overly enthusiastic social manners, but it was also impolite to refuse, so he could only embrace the other person with a smile.
The internationally renowned Hollywood director Thomas Felton’s gaze shifted to Tanki Liuli, his eyes lighting up.
"Oh, Shenzhou really brings me surprises every time."
He examined Tanki Liuli up and down, his amazement becoming more and more pronounced.
"Jiang, is this your friend?"
"She’s a sister from the Qi Family."
Tanki Liuli surely didn’t understand English.
Seeing Thomas Felton intending to greet Tanki Liuli and possibly going for a cheek-to-cheek greeting, Jiang Chen quickly stepped forward to slightly shield her.
"My sister is quite shy, a bit reclusive, and not used to interacting with strangers."
Thomas Felton expressed understanding, abandoning the idea of greeting her, and sincerely complimented, "Jiang, your sister is really beautiful."
Then, he added another line.
"You always have no shortage of top beauties around you."
Foreigners.
Always blunt and straightforward, not very versed in subtlety.
Jiang Chen acted nonchalant, following Thomas Felton into the press conference venue.
Indeed.
Taking advantage of the time before the New Year, Thomas Felton specifically chose this time to come to Shenzhou for movie promotion.
Of course, the male and female leads and creators of the movie cannot be absent.
Pei Yunxi, having mentioned coming back to the country before the New Year, truly kept her word.
As a major Hollywood director and a heavyweight in the entertainment circle, and given that this film is the first international blockbuster to feature a Shenzhou actor in a leading role, it attracted many celebrities to support the event.
"Jiang, do you want to say a few words later?"
As an investor, Jiang Chen certainly has the qualification, but given his personality, he definitely wouldn’t want to be in the spotlight.
"No need, I’m just a producer. The movie’s good content and effects are due to the main creative team. We can’t put the cart before the horse."
Thomas Felton nodded, "Jiang, you always think so comprehensively. It’s really hard to imagine that you are still so young."
Who says foreigners can’t flatter.
Of course.
For an investor like Jiang Chen, generous and non-interfering in filming, he must be every director’s "dream lover." It doesn’t matter how much they flatter him.
"Yun Xi should be talking to General Bian."
Although Thomas Felton is a director and looks rough with his full beard, he’s actually quite delicate in his thinking. Without Jiang Chen having to say anything, he took the initiative to explain.
"Which General Bian?"
Jiang Chen asked subconsciously.
"The founder of Hippo Group, Bian Zaide."
Jiang Chen suddenly realized.
Hippo Group.
A groundbreaking commercial behemoth, not just domestically, but internationally as well, with a market value that has long broken the trillion mark.
If Jin Hai is the leader of the private enterprises in East Sea, then Hippo Group is the leader of national private enterprises.
At the same time, in the loan sector, it is also the strongest competitor to Great Wall.
"Let’s go, I’ll take you over."
Jiang Chen did not refuse and followed Thomas Felton through the dazzling crowd.
"General Bian, our investor is here."
The people who were chatting turned their heads in unison.
The name Bian Zaide was so familiar that one would feel calluses growing on their ears from hearing it so much in the news, but this was the first time meeting in person.
If there is a limit to the heights that an entrepreneur can reach, then he must be close to touching that limit.
Although wealthier than a nation, the appearance of this entrepreneur, who has been crowned the wealthiest multiple times, is indeed lackluster, particularly his height, which clearly doesn’t match up to Pei Yunxi in heels.
But for men, it’s not about the looks.
Just look around; everyone is dressed to the nines, yet he dressed as casually as an ordinary person going to the market, distinctly laid-back.
After all,
At such a level, who still needs to "dress to impress."
Without the hurry to greet the long-missed Pei Yunxi, Jiang Chen showed a polite smile, "General Bian, it’s an honor to meet you."
"General Jiang, right?"
Before Jiang Chen could introduce himself, the internationally renowned Bian Zaide took the initiative to speak, also with a warm smile.
He shook hands with Jiang Chen in a friendly and approachable manner.
"Truly, ’heroes emerge from youth.’"
I’m this famous now?
Jiang Chen didn’t expect the other party to recognize him, but despite the surprise, he naturally wouldn’t show it on his face and continued smiling: "You flatter me too much, General Bian."
After the friendly handshake, Bian Zaide withdrew his hand, "When I was your age, I didn’t know what I was doing. It’s really good, more and more young people like General Jiang are emerging, our future will be increasingly hopeful."
"Director Felton has always been one of my favorite directors. This movie will surely be a big hit, good taste."
"With General Bian’s words, I can rest assured."
Thomas Felton responded with a smile.
"With such an acclaimed director and such a strong creative team, the quality is beyond doubt. When the movie officially releases, I will definitely go to the cinema to support it."
"It’s best to bring along all employees of Hippo Group."
Foreigners do understand humor.
The employees of Hippo Group, that’s hundreds of thousands of people.
"No problem, but do we get a discount for a group purchase?" Being the wealthiest, Bian Zaide really didn’t display any pretense.
"That you’ll have to ask Jiang, he’s the boss."
The leading lady Pei Yunxi, the hottest celebrity in the country and the ideal type for millions of men, didn’t utter a word.
Wearing an off-the-shoulder evening gown, perfectly revealing her white, fragrant skin and delicate collarbone, she stood quietly on the side, her captivating gaze briefly skimming Tanki Liuli behind Jiang Chen.
"Director Felton, since General Bian holds our movie in such high regard, to thank General Bian for his support, we invite all employees of Hippo Group to watch the movie for free."
The expression on Thomas Felton’s face changed slightly, obviously disagreeing with this generous offer, but it wasn’t his place to object.
"General Jiang truly lives up to his reputation."
Bian Zaide said meaningfully, then smiled again and said: "The salary level for employees of Hippo Group is still quite good, a movie ticket is still affordable for us."
