Chapter 701: The th day of the twelfth lunar month, marriage proposal
This requires someone to pass the message, and He Qing herself is obviously not suitable.
Wang Li did not give He Qing an answer on the spot. She had to go and check with her husband whether there were any similar connections in Qiantang to do them a favor.
The investment from the third brother is a much-desired political achievement and a favor to everyone.
So he said:
"How long will my sister-in-law stay here? I need to go back and sort out the relationships at home and find a suitable person to pass on the message for you."
He Qing said:
"It's okay, I can stay here for a few more days."
Wang Lidao:
"Then we have an agreement. I will come back to see you. Room 2818?"
He Qing nodded shyly. This was Wang Yuanchao's private room.
He Qing really wanted to chat with Wang Li more, but it was obvious that they were a family of three having breakfast, and she was disturbing them. She could only say:
"Then I won't bother you and your family. Feel free to come and see me when there's a result."
He Qing said goodbye politely. She still had to prepare some gifts. No matter what, she had to express her feelings, right?
She also didn't know how efficient Wang Li was. It would be meaningless if she prepared too late.
Wang Li carried the plate back to her husband Meng Xiaozhong and had breakfast with her husband and son.
Meng Xiaozhong said:
"Is this the sister-in-law you got?"
Wang Li smiled and said:
"Beautiful, right?"
Meng Xiaozhong said quickly:
"Son, who do you think is prettier, that aunt or your mother?"
Meng Ziyi immediately said firmly:
"That auntie is so beautiful! When I grow up I want to marry a fairy like her!"
Meng Xiaozhong was very embarrassed. This guy was so disrespectful!
Wang Li laughed so hard that he fell backwards. After a long pause, he told his son:
"The one just now, next time you see her, you have to call her aunt, understand?"
Meng Ziyi nodded and said innocently:
"Why do I have so many aunts..."
Wang Li glared at her husband, saying that this was the culprit and brought the topic to this aspect.
Meng Xiaozhong knew he was in the wrong, so he peeled an egg for his son, put the egg white on his son's plate, and stuffed the egg yolk into his own mouth. Then he said:
"Then ~ looking for you?"
Wang Li looked at her husband who was choking on the egg yolk, pushed the milk forward and said:
"I'm here to do you a favor. Do you have any connections in Qiantang?"
Meng Xiaozhong's eyes lit up, and he became excited when he heard this. He gulped down a few mouthfuls of milk, and then he couldn't wait to say:
"Have you forgotten where I'm from? I'm from Chun'an, Yue Province!"
Wang Li rolled her eyes at her husband and said:
"Isn't it because my third brother is thinking about you as his brother-in-law? Let's eat, and then we can talk in our room."
Meng Xiaozhong finished eating in just a few bites, and then looked at his slow-moving wife and slow-moving son.
His son Meng Ziyi couldn't stand his father's eager gaze, so he speeded up his eating. Then the father and son stared at Wang Li as he finished eating slowly.
……
Wang Yuanchao flew directly to Washington because January 1th was the inauguration ceremony of George H.W. Bush as president.
How could he be absent?
He has attended two U.S. presidential inaugurations, including President Reagan's, and has extensive experience.
The deals that needed to be negotiated were negotiated long before the election, and the things that needed to be implemented were discussed after the election.
But this still did not prevent Bush Sr.'s inauguration reception from becoming a new Vanity Fair.
Brother-in-law Michael became the cabinet's Secretary of Energy, consolidating the Reagan family's legacy in politics.
Xixi became the US ambassador to the United Nations, and also made the leap to a cabinet-level official. This will make her resume earth-shaking.
Wang Yuanchao had no time to congratulate her as he was busy chatting with George W. Bush.
Last year, Bush Jr. helped his father with his election work. After the election, he partnered with others to buy the Texas Rangers baseball team and prepared to serve as the team manager himself.
Wang Yuanchao also owns an NBA team and has quite a bit of experience in team management, so they can be considered to have a common language.
If La Zipperton can be elected as scheduled, George W. Bush will come to power after him, and Bush will be unable to do without him. He has the confidence of this.
Bush Jr. was able to come to power largely because of the great contribution of his father's cabinet.
Now the Reagan family is not without successors as in history. They have Michael in politics and Adam Wang in business. Their foundation is even deeper than that of the Bush family.
To put it bluntly, by then Michael might be able to compete with George W. Bush. After all, between Reagan and George H.W. Bush, whose political legacy is stronger?
Anyway, Wang Yuanchao can make more arrangements, and he will definitely not make only one.
Be prepared.
-
After finishing his work in the United States, Wang Yuanchao returned to Hong Kong. Once Upon a Time in China had been taken off the screen for a week.
He didn't come back specifically for "Once Upon a Time in China", he had to come back to attend his son Wang Xiao's marriage proposal, right?
If his son is getting married and his biological father does not show up, it would seem disrespectful to his son, Lou Xiao'e and his in-laws, which is not good.
Therefore, "Huang Feihong" completely took advantage of Wang Xiao's marriage.
Because Wang Yuanchao is going to attend the movie’s celebration party!
The crew is waiting for Wang Yuanchao to celebrate. Normally, Wang Yuanchao does not participate in these things. What is his identity?
He had just attended the inauguration ceremony of the US President, and those who could shake the world with a stomp of their feet were drinking and chatting with him, and even trying to please him.
There's a world of difference between these two cocktail parties, isn't there?
But it was he who promoted Guan Zhilin in "Once Upon a Time in China", and if nothing unexpected happens, Guan Zhilin will become the eighth concubine in the future, so Wang Yuanchao has to give him this face.
Now that Wang Yuanchao has made a move, the celebration banquet for "Once Upon a Time in China" has become immediately full of style.
You know, even the Hong Kong Film Awards couldn't invite Wang Yuanchao, but he was a real Earl Wang with actual fiefdoms. He controlled a country behind the scenes and was a big shot in Europe and the United States!
Whenever the Hong Kong media promotes several major families, the Wang family is always excluded. Even the king of chartering ships cannot compare with them, let alone others. Forcing them to be promoted together feels abrupt, like putting adults and children together at the same table.
This is not just a family, this is already the king of Hong Kong.
However, Wang Yuanchao is still very low-key. Hong Kong is the Hong Kong of the mainland, and you can't speak nonsense. If anyone speaks nonsense, he will make that person speechless.
Just so domineering.
The British troops in Hong Kong are just a few poor cats, and they are no match for the Blackwater Security of Boluo State. Moreover, no one can tell how many people in the Hong Kong troops are living off Wang Yuanchao, so this is a true king with the ability to destroy.
With such strength, why is he still so low-key? Isn't that inappropriate?
Do not!
very suitable.
Because in January, the mainland promulgated the draft Basic Law of Hong Kong, and Wang Yuanchao did not participate in it in order to avoid suspicion. How could he allow those with ulterior motives to make irresponsible remarks?
Of course, he didn't get involved because he knew that no one would target him specifically. After all, it would not be worth it to keep his word.
Let’s get back to “Once Upon a Time in China”.
In the past two years, the Hong Kong film industry has been dominated by modern dramas. For example, the top movies in the box office rankings in 88 were "Eight Stars Announcement", "Police Story 89", "Dragon Gate", "Chicken and Duck Talk", "Tiger on the Beat", etc. Most of the movies scheduled to be released in are of similar types.
Tsui Hark's "Once Upon a Time in China", directed by Wang Yuanchao, was born out of nowhere. It has a compact plot, stylish characters, and exciting martial arts. It stands out among all the modern films and has greatly attracted the audience. It has taken in 3400 million at the box office! It is expected to hit the top three in the box office in 89.
As for the box office champion, the well-known "God of Gamblers" was released in 89. "Once Upon a Time in China" may not be able to beat it. After all, modern martial arts films and modern martial arts films are both martial arts films, while "God of Gamblers" is a new model and is more fresh.
The audience's appetite is constantly increasing and they need freshness.
"Once Upon a Time in China" was a huge success, and Wang Yuanchao was present at the celebration party. The crew would definitely not miss this opportunity and directly announced that "Once Upon a Time in China 2" was already in full swing of preparations for filming.
However, Wang Yuanchao did not participate in the celebration party throughout.
If he were here, he would be the undisputed protagonist, too dazzling. He is no longer at the age of frying fish in a small pond.
Isn’t the Hong Kong film industry just a small fish pond?
Wang Yuanchao just followed the crew onto the stage, raised a glass of wine, and stood next to Guan Zhilin, making it clear to everyone: This is his woman!
The 89 Hong Kong Film Awards are coming soon. We should carefully consider how to judge the awards.
If Earl Wang is made unhappy, he will make everyone unhappy in the future.
Because Wang Yuanchao felt that Guan Zhilin and Jet Li's performances were completely remarkable, especially since he had put so much energy into this film. It was his hard work! How could it be wasted?
He hasn't been a producer for many years, right?
After the toast and a few polite words, Wang Yuanchao left, leaving the project to Tsui Hark and his wife, after all, they were the director and producer.
Guan Zhilin lifted her skirt in a casual manner and followed Wang Yuanchao away.
She is also about to break away from this fish pond and leap into the dragon gate.
Everyone is not concerned about Guan Zhilin's departure. On the contrary, many people are eyeing Jet Li. Jet Li's previous "Shaolin Temple" series was a big hit, and now he has redefined "Once Upon a Time in China". This is the leading actor who can carry the box office! Although Jet Li's agency contract is still in the mainland and is still controlled by Wang Yuanchao, it's not that everyone is unwilling to pay.
As for female vases, there are plenty of them in Hong Kong. Miss Hong Kong comes one after another, and the most beautiful Li Jiaxin has just been born. Does Hong Kong lack vases? Wang Bojue likes this vase, so everyone should just praise it.
Wang Yuanchao did not lock Jet Li in Hualong Company. After the great success of "Once Upon a Time in China", the agency signed an 8-movie contract with Jet Li according to Wang Yuanchao's wishes. Jet Li could renew the contract and transfer freely after the contract expired. Hualong did not exploit Jet Li endlessly. On the contrary, every time a successful movie was made, Hualong would increase Jet Li's salary to keep him motivated.
The agent thinks that the smartest thing for Jet Li to do is to renew his contract with Hualong in the form of a studio after the eight films are up, because Earl Wang is never harsh on his subordinates, and not everyone can rely on Earl Wang as a backer.
However, the other party's desire to escape did not diminish because of Wang Yuanchao's kindness. Wang Yuanchao never expressed any opinion on this, and he fully respected the other party's choice.
After getting into Wang Yuanchao's bulletproof SUV, there was a car like the one leading the way in front and a car like the one covering the rear. There were a total of four cars in total. Unless they were locked by a helicopter, no one could hurt Wang Yuanchao in the slightest.
Whenever Wang Yuanchao went out in public, he was always neatly armed. After all, he was responsible for the honor and disgrace of thousands of families, so he had to be careful.
Leaning on the soft leather seat, Wang Yuanchao immersed himself in it.
Guan Zhilin did not sit next to him, but sat behind Wang Yuanchao. Seeing this, he stretched out his hand and helped Wang Yuanchao massage his temples.
The car moved forward steadily, and the jade hands were very rhythmic, with a hint of fragrance. Wang Yuanchao said:
"Why don't you stay there? This is your first movie with a box office of over 3000 million as the leading actress. You should enjoy this honor."
Guan Zhilin kept his hands busy and said:
"You're the one who praised me. Don't I know where the honor comes from?"
Really, when I jump out of this fish pond, the next time they see me, they will have to respectfully call me "Mrs. Wang" or "Mrs. Ba"!
Wang Yuanchao smiled and had to admire Guan Zhilin for his determination and persistence in making certain things.
He pulled her in front of him with his hand, and Guan Zhilin fell on Wang Yuanchao.
In the dark carriage, Guan Zhilin's hands began to grope down consciously, trying to open something.
But he was stopped by Wang Yuanchao.
Wang Yuanchao put his hands around her waist, held her in his arms, and said:
"I just want to hug you."
Guan Zhilin obediently leaned his head on Wang Yuanchao's shoulder and said "hmm".
The fragrant and hot breath invaded Wang Yuanchao's ears.
Wang Yuanchao patted Hunyuan, feeling it was very good, and said:
"good!"
Only then did Guan Zhilin stop his teasing actions.
Wang Yuanchao couldn't help but think of Zhou Huimin. He had given a lot to Zhou Huimin, but she was only willing to be his girlfriend and was unwilling to marry him.
I thought of Lan Jieying again. She just thought that accompanying him was a hidden rule in the workplace and didn't understand his love for her at all. But after being seduced by him, others who wanted to seduced her had to weigh the consequences and worry about whether they would complain to him.
Compare him with Guan Zhilin. No matter what the other party is trying to do, he has been so proactive in getting closer to me, and it feels good.
Wang Yuanchao stroked the other person's face and said:
"Do you have any dreams or ideals?"
Guan Zhilin said:
"It means marrying you and becoming your wife!"
Wang Yuanchao was a little amused and said:
"Don't you do something? Look at my wives, they all have careers. Otherwise, when you get old, your children will despise you as a mother for not fighting for him more."
Guan Zhilin was very surprised and said:
"I want to marry you because my career is too hard. If I marry you, I still have to work, and I..." Guan Zhilin felt like crying but had no tears.
Wang Yuanchao smiled and said:
“Have you never heard of a boss who just talks and the people below him run around? It’s not like you have to do it yourself. You have to get up every day, dress up nicely, wear high-end clothes, go to the company, have coffee with a professional manager, talk to him, cheer him up, ask him questions, and see who can help you solve the problem.
All you have to do is follow others and let them do the work for you.
As for you, you rest when you should rest and take vacation when you should take vacation. When you are in a bad mood, you call your subordinates in the middle of the night to wake them up and talk to them about work. They have to be careful to talk to you without any temper at all.
Then at the annual meeting, you will be the most eye-catching boss lady in the whole audience, and everyone will cheer for you because you give them promotions, salary increases and bonuses.
You are the one sitting at the top watching the show. Your every move can make them crazy, happy, or sad.
If you don't show off your wealth to others, what's the point of having money? "
Guan Zhilin felt that Wang Yuanchao's brainwashing was right. Otherwise, it would be really boring to spend money, eat, drink and shop without anyone appreciating it.
So he put his arms around Wang Yuanchao's neck and couldn't help whispering in his ear:
"Then you can give me a simple job. I also need to support myself. I can't let the sisters in front look down on me, right?"
The wind changes so quickly!
Wang Yuanchao thought about it, what industry can a female star be suitable for?
It seems that this person doesn't want to work in the film and television industry, and she doesn't have the ability to do it.
Beauty industry?
Fashion industry?
Forget it, I'll just help out as a luxury goods agent. Anyway, I need to expand my luxury goods industry in Europe to various places.
This job should be quite suitable.
But think about it, LVHM is not completely in our hands yet, so we have to hurry up.
This is suitable for Guan Zhilin and Zhen Zhen, and it should also be suitable. Zhen Zhen has been following Wang Ling, but to be honest, her career has been limited.
Wang Yuanchao could not favor one over the other.
Road:
"After the Chinese New Year, you can focus on filming Yellow 2. After you finish filming, tell me and we'll meet in Paris. I'll show you the French luxury industry."
Guan Zhilin was stunned and his body began to tremble. What woman could resist the power of a luxury product?
“So, you may not be able to quit the film and television industry easily. After all, as the boss lady of a luxury goods sales agency, this industry and luxury goods are too closely related.
Is not it? "
After all this talk, let’s just work hard!
Guan Zhilin had lost his temper and could only perfunctorily say:
"Know it."
Then he lazily lay on Wang Yuanchao's body.
Wang Yuanchao's big hands then moved up and down with satisfaction.
"Well, I'll stay at your place tonight."
……
The 28th day of the twelfth lunar month is the beginning of spring, which is a good time for marriage and engagement.
Wang Yuanchao and Lou Xiao'e brought Wang Xiao and, under the leadership of Wang Xiao's uncle Lou Xingrong, went to the girl's home, Cherie Chung, to propose marriage.
Wang Yuanchao gave a lot of face to his eldest son.
The neighborhood where Cherie Chung lives was already surrounded by people. Even neighbors and relatives were probably searched before being allowed in.
The Zhong family met their parents-in-law for the first time.
My father-in-law is incredibly young and handsome. To be honest, if you don’t know, you might think he is coming to marry my daughter.
The mother-in-law next to her, although well-maintained, was obviously a little older.
Of course, no matter what, they are younger and more elegant than the Zhong family.
Fortunately, they were mentally prepared and did not show any impolite behavior when meeting their parents-in-law.
Lou Xingrong faithfully fulfilled his duties as a matchmaker and laid out and explained clearly all the things that needed to be discussed.
This proposal will be followed by an engagement, so there won’t be a big engagement ceremony, just a family get-together will do.
The main reason is that Wang Yuanchao has too many children. If he has to go through the two-step process of engagement and wedding for each child's marriage, he would probably be exhausted to death.
It’s nice to be able to sit together as a family and have a meal together.
As for the wedding, Lou Xingrong clearly stated the Wang family's opinion that it should be held in Boluo State.
At that time, everyone will take a plane or cruise ship to Boro Kingdom.
After all, Wang Xiao's future development will be in Boluo. The Lou family's many industries have also begun to shift their focus to Boluo. He has to follow his nephew. If he doesn't count on his nephew to take care of him, can he still count on Wang Yuanchao to take care of him?
Of course, the industries in Hong Kong only need to be developed steadily and there is no need to abandon them.
In fact, it was also very boring for Wang Yuanchao. No matter what he said, or what Lou Xiao'e said, or what the matchmaker Lou Xingrong said, the couple were like primary school students answering questions, very well-behaved and cautious. They didn't dare to say a word more for fear of saying something wrong.
He was smiling the whole time, and his face was probably almost stiff from smiling.
The other party was smiling so brightly, he had to smile, it would seem disrespectful to the other party. Then Wang Xiao squeezed the hand of his fiancée, Cherie Chung. He looked at the fake smiles of the parents and could no longer hold back.
The two looked at each other and held their breath.
No one dared to laugh.
It’s better for Earl Wang to smile than to change his face, right?
Anyway, the Wang family has the final say on everything, and the marriage proposal process is very quick.
After that, everyone went to the restaurant to eat.
Wang Xiao’s wedding was put on the agenda.
