Chapter 42 Home Furnishing

Chen Chong woke up and found that Li Kaiyuan was not by his side. He grabbed the alarm clock at the head of the bed and looked at it. It was just past six o'clock.

When I walked out of the bedroom, I saw her wearing a white nightgown, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass on the balcony, staring at the morning misty Victoria Harbour in the distance in a daze.

Chen Chong walked over, hugged her slender waist, and asked softly, "Can't you sleep?"

"In the past, although it was crowded in the old house, it was very lively and warm." Li Kaiyuan held his arm with his back hand and said, "Although it is big and the scenery is good, it is empty and boring."

"I think so too." Chen Chong sniffed the faint fragrance and comforted him: "But this is how life is. I chased something that I don't have. I tried my best to chase it. Instead, I felt that it was good before."

Li Kaiyuan leaned softly on him, and after a while, he said, "Actually, when he was a child, he often moved. He was very excited every time. He didn't expect that he wouldn't like moving when he was old."

"Of course, people are determined. When they grow up, they want to settle down and get married and start a family. If they don't have this mentality and always like to run around, humans will have long been extinct."

"Maybe." Li Kaiyuan sighed, pushed him away, and said, "I'll go cook porridge."

Chen Chong followed into the kitchen, leaned against the door and watched her wash rice, and said, "It would be better to hire a nanny."

“I don’t make it delicious?”

"It's delicious." Chen Chong explained: "One of the time, you are very busy, and secondly, you have to cook and cook. There is a lot of oil smoke, which hurts your skin."

"You can speak a lot of fun." Li Kaiyuan gave him a blank look while adding water to the rice cooker and said, "Since you feel sorry for me so much, why don't you cook for me personally?"

"If you have a chance in the future, you will have a chance." Chen Chong scratched his head awkwardly, and another reason to work hard in his heart - the quick cooking skills require 100,000 movie medals.

"By the way, how are you talking about Tianbao's transfer to school?"

"Sister Qin said that if the grades are fine, she can help and let Tianbao transfer to Bacui Nu Academy." Li Kaiyuan pressed the power supply of the rice cooker, then pushed him out of the kitchen and said, "Bacui Nu Academy is the best girls' high school in Hong Kong. If Tianbao can enter, my mother will definitely be very happy."

"Sister Qin is so awesome?"

"Yes." Li Kaiyuan said: "I only found out two days ago that her family is the big boss of Yong'an Department Store, a wealthy family, and she opens a fashion store and knows many celebrities."

"So that's it, no wonder she has a good taste." Chen Chong, the famous name of Yong'an Department Store, has heard of it. It is a time-honored brand written in history books. "Since she has helped, it should be a sure thing? When this semester is over, let Tianbao move here to live."

"Sister Qin said she knew the principal of Bacui Academy." Li Kaiyuan poured a glass of water, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and said with some concern: "Although Tianbao is smart, the quality of the schools in Kwun Tong is not good."

"Okay, don't worry. Even if you can't enter Bacui Academy, it's good to go to school in the middle of the mountain, so you don't need to pick you up and drop off."

Li Kaiyuan nodded, she put down her cup, changed the topic, and said, "I wonder if there are any reporters in the company today? Yesterday afternoon, my mother called and said that a reporter had found her home."

"There must be some, the limelight has been tight in the past few days." Chen Chong hugged her in his arms and said, "If there is nothing important, don't go to the company. Moving in the past few days is quite tiring. Have a good rest at home."

"What if there is an emergency?"

"Don't worry, everyone who lacks the earth will still be able to change." Chen Chong smiled and said, "Besides, Sister Xin is not in the company, and she has the novice who is well-paid, what can happen to her?"

"Okay, I didn't sleep well last night, and it was just enough to make up for my sleep."

Li Kaiyuan adjusted his posture, put on a pillow, closed his eyes, and looked at her beautiful face and beautiful figure for a while. Then he stood up, went to the bedroom to get a blanket, and was about to cover her. When he walked out of the bedroom, he saw her turning over and sitting up again.

"What's wrong?" Chen Chong was surprised.

Li Kaiyuan wiped his face with his hands, stood up and walked towards the kitchen, and said, "It's better to cook the porridge before going to bed."

"You are such a hardworking life." Chen Chong had no choice but to spread his hands and said, "Although I don't know how to cook porridge?"

"You're a ghost." Li Kaiyuan uncovered the lid of the rice cooker and said, "Look, the water is overflowing."

He was ashamed.

"My dad said he would go to mainland China to film at the end of May." Li Kaiyuan took the rice spoon and stirred the porridge, asking, "Are you going with me?"

"Yes, it's been arranged long ago."

"I really don't understand what you have to go to the mainland." Li Kaiyuan complained, and then said, "But it's okay, my mother is more at ease with you."

"I can't even cook porridge, you still expect me to take care of Uncle Li." Chen Chong smiled and said, "Uncle Li is almost the same as taking care of me."

"I didn't ask you to take care of him. My mother thinks you are amazing. If you go to the mainland, something bad will not happen."

"Treat me as a mascot?"

"Do you think?"

...

After being interviewed by Ming Pao Weekly, Chen Chong transferred the office of Wan Fu Building in Kwun Tong to Matrix Technology Company, and then moved Oriental Charming Film Company to Wan Chai, and rented a new office in an office building not far from the magazine.

Although the interview talked about "Crazy Job", the name of the film company was not revealed, so he could go to work leisurely without worrying about harassment.

However, even if there is harassment, it is not very annoying. In this era, the media industry is still moral, and paparazzi seem to have not appeared yet.

Shortly after arriving at the office, Zeng Lizhen knocked on the door and walked in. She is now the producer manager and can come to find Chen Chong at any time without the secretary's notice.

"Mr. Chen, you released the news of your investment in movies on Saturday. Seven or eight people contacted me yesterday." She handed a folder to Chen Chong and said with a wry smile: "This is a script. Wang Jing blocked my doorstep last night and forced it to me."

Wang Jingmo... This kid's enthusiasm for the movie is really extraordinary. He just blocked the door and handed over the script, which gave him a bit of the style of those scoundrel characters in his movies.

Chen Chong took the folder and didn't open it, asking, "Have you seen it?"

"I've seen it, it's about playing mahjong." Zeng Lizhen briefly said the plot: "A young man inherited a mahjong hall, and a bad guy wanted to grab it, and then another master taught the young man to play mahjong, and finally used mahjong to defeat the bad guys. The plot was not much different from those kung fu movies in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, but it looked quite interesting to replace the fight with playing mahjong." (Note 1)

After listening to it, Chen Chong didn't even look at it, and threw the folder into the drawer. He looked surprised when he saw Zeng Lizhen and explained casually: "Mahjong is a gambling tool after all, and our company has just started it. It's not easy to get involved in pornography, gambling, drugs and other things, and the impact is not good."

"It's still Mr. Chen's thoughtful thoughtfulness." Zeng Lizhen complimented and asked, "Then will I reply to him like this?"

"Just reply like this." Chen Chong replied indifferently - Fatty Wang should be a person with a tough mental quality. After all, he has a strong man and a big boss and father. If he is rejected, he will not be depressed.

"Who has contacted you?"

Zeng Lizhen opened another folder and handed it to Chen Chong, explaining in detail: "There are eight people in total. I have written down each of them's resumes, filming schedules, initial budgets, and script summary."

Chen Chong took it over and saw that it was all unfamiliar names. After looking at the resume, there was no one particularly outstanding. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He returned the folder to Zeng Lizhen and said, "It seems that there is nothing worth investing in."

"I think so, too." Zeng Lizhen said: "There are two people who don't even have a script and ask for a budget of one million when they speak, just to cheat money."

"I'm not short of money, and I don't expect movies to make money for the time being. I just want good movies." Chen Chong crossed his hands and twisted his wrists, saying, "If you come to invest, you can first review them and choose some innovative and sincere people to show me. Those who are shoddy to cheat money will be rejected."

"OK."

After Zeng Lizhen left, Shen Chong leaned on the back of the chair, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. He opened the system in his mind and entered the "Enterprise Management" page.

Project name: VisiCalc;

Project status: Everything is normal;

Project investment: US$100,000;

Development progress: 74%;

Project name: Tetris;

Project status: Everything is normal;

Project investment: US$500,000;

Development progress: 61%;

Project name: PA software & game distribution and sales platform;

Project status: Everything is normal;

Project investment: US$2 million;

Project progress: 21 chain stores in 15 cities

Everything was normal, Chen Chong breathed a sigh of relief and exited the system. Before exiting, he glanced at the balance prompt and couldn't help but sigh.

The system is too ruthless. This simplest state query requires 100 movie medals at a time. You should know that it only has 1,050 movie medals in total. This time, three items are inquired, and 300 medals are gone...

Several projects in North America are extremely important to the future funding source and must be taken seriously. Although the contracts were drafted by a barrister, if there is any accident, the losses will not be a small part.

So even though he was slaughtered, Chen Chong still activated the system and scanned it. If he went to the United States in person, it would take at least one week, and it would not be enough to spend it!

"Crazy Job" is scheduled to be released on May 5th. Chen Chong will definitely be in charge of the command these days. After all, it is the company's first movie. Judging from the preview, reputation can be guaranteed. If the box office becomes more popular, it is well received and popular, Oriental Charming Film Company can become famous in the Hong Kong film industry. Moreover, there is a task with good rewards in the system...

Moreover, "Shisanlang of the South China Sea" also needs to be arranged early. Chen Chong made this movie not only to get along with Liao Chengzhi. He liked this movie very much in his previous life. Gao Zhisen was trapped in insufficient funds and made a simple matter. He tinkered with a half-stories and half-romance movie, which could become a classic. If the person involved was still alive and gathered the best filmmakers and resources, what level of "Shisanlang of the South China Sea" would be filmed?

Chen Chong is very looking forward to this!
