"Who paid?"

Director Jiang's voice on the phone was loud and clear: "It's you."

Su Changqing laughed: "Don't be ridiculous, how could it be me."

"That's about it. Someone left a message. I'm here. Come over."

Someone left a message. Was this account settled for him?

Su Changqing suddenly realized that this was a real possibility. He remembered that when the Xiangyun Fund was raising funds, Ximen Ying and Ding Jialuo went to London in addition to Paris, indicating that there were people of theirs there as well.

If this person is related to the fund, he will naturally be related to Su Changqing.

When the receptionist said he was an Asian with a Cockney accent, Su Changqing once suspected that the people in the fund had secretly settled the accounts for him out of gratitude, and that they might have settled the accounts of both crews out of confusion.

But you have to say hello first before doing this kind of thing, right?

In addition, the people Ximen Ying and Ding Jialuo come into contact with are from unusual backgrounds. They don’t seem to be the kind of people who are easily grateful. Would they really do such a thing?

But it’s hard to say that after the foundation of the fund and its sweep across Thailand and the Philippines, some people kept suggesting a gathering to meet Su Changqing, but he didn’t agree.

He even said to Ding Jialuo: "Let your friends make money quietly. Don't always think about getting together. We are doing funds, not socializing."

The Xiangyun Fund was in Indonesia throughout August, and was invincible with the world's hot money. In two months, Southeast Asia had been devastated, and there was not much foreign exchange accumulated in the decades after World War II left.

Although the world's public opinion is in an uproar, they are just pretending to be good people and making blind noises. What this incident embodies is the core of the spirit of capitalism. Whoever is guilty is also innocent of capital. It doesn't even have to do with morality. They are not the ones robbing them anyway.

As a result, this financial war became increasingly bloody, and Xiangyun Fund followed suit and quietly made huge profits.

When you make enough money, it's awesome.

The fund's invincibility and Su Changqing's superior attitude obviously suppressed these people, and they didn't even know how to flatter them.

Su Changqing can understand the motivations of these people. It is not just as simple as thanking you. The financial crisis is short-lived, but people's desires are eternal, and they are nothing more than hoping to continue to make money.

However, Su Changqing was careful to keep a distance from these people, and it was not always easy to get the limelight.

He immediately went to Director Jiang's room.

Unexpectedly, it was really well-attended. Director Zhang and everyone else were there, including Gong Li.

She doesn't stay in this hotel, but she basically stays here because there are so many people and she doesn't feel lonely.

Everyone looked at Su Changqing with a strange expression. They are all good actors, and each one of them is very expressive, as if they are saying: "Awesome, Director Su, someone took the flattery to Venice."

Director Jiang handed the note from the main station to Su Changqing: "I didn't mean to take your message. Our people went to the main station to understand the situation and they gave it to me."

This was a phone message. Su Changqing first looked at the person who left the message, Ms. Ding.

It was left by Ding Jialuo, and most of the people who paid the bill were people from Xiangyun Fund.

It seemed that while Su Changqing was out for dinner, Ding Jialuo called. He couldn't find anyone and left a message for the main station.

In 1997, it was difficult to make international calls, and mobile phones did not have international roaming services, so it was useless to go abroad.

Su Changqing was a little annoyed. If you can't get through, you can call again and leave a nonsense message. If the text involves the fund, you will have to deal with her later.

But no, Ding Jialuo couldn't have mentioned the fund in his message, so he still had some shrewdness.

The note was written in English, and the general meaning was: A British friend of mine went on a business trip to Italy. I saw in the newspaper that you had arrived in Venice. Out of gratitude and admiration, but not daring to disturb you, I quietly paid for the bill.

Su Changqing was even more annoyed. This guy paid the bill blindly, making it difficult for him to explain now.

Later, he called Ding Jialuo and asked why he didn't say hello earlier, which made everyone suspicious and embarrassed. She was also aggrieved: "We just returned from Indonesia in those two days and waited in South Korea as you said. The communication was not smooth at that time. I saw

The guy's email called you right away, but it was a little late due to time differences and other reasons."

After Indonesia, there was Hong Kong. Su Changqing was not allowed to participate, so the funds were transferred to South Korea to wait.

I have to say that the person paying the bill is really immature and willful. He thinks he is doing a good job, but in fact he is causing trouble.

Ding Jialuo, in turn, blamed Su Changqing: "Everyone has always wanted to maintain a relationship with the eldest brother, but you are too cold. If you have other reasons to recruit these people, you don't need to be so fawning. Is it so difficult to meet you? This is a very powerful force."

Why don't you use your power? I think you have a leadership temperament."

This bitch has always been good at flattering, and Su Changqing is a little moved by the words. The Xiangyun Fund will definitely be disbanded when the time comes, but these people can organize themselves separately, and they still have ideas for making money.

So he relaxed and agreed to continue planning this huge sum of money after considering the financial crisis, which made Ding Jialuo overjoyed.

Director Jiang was very curious: "Who is paying the bill? It seems to be a friend of a friend, but you don't know him?"

A friend of a friend, whom he has never met, offered millions of yuan for his money. Directors Zhang and Jiang found it very strange even if they had seen the world.

"It is indeed a friend of a friend. I have helped him a little before, so I can repay the favor." Su Changqing put the note into his pocket and pretended to be relaxed: "Now that we know who paid the bill, we can rest assured.

Consumption is free here.”

Ben Shanzi chuckled: "Friends who rush to pay the bill are true friends. You are an interesting friend."

"That's right," Ge You also joked: "I have great respect for friends who like to pay the bills. Most people can't learn this advantage."

Gong Li interrupted at this time: "We have just analyzed it for a while. If you don't know this friend, he must not be in the film and television industry, right?"

Of course, I'm not from the film and television industry, and I'm very unfamiliar with the domestic film and television industry, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tell the two teams apart.

Su Changqing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This man acted recklessly and scared us all."

Director Jiang continued to use his clever brain: "I read what the note means. It seems that the person didn't dare to come to see you. He had no choice but to do this secretly. Why didn't he dare? It's really strange."

Su Changqing can probably guess what this guy is thinking. The artist has a rich imagination, and I'm afraid he has made up a lot of pictures in his mind. Among them, there must be: someone using the artist as a cover, but in fact, his background is unfathomable, and his interests are spread all over the world like a godfather.

Su Changqing waved his hand: "I don't know him at all, so I don't know what he is thinking. Since he is willing to pay the bill, it can be regarded as supporting Chinese movies."

The more he denied it, the more mysterious it seemed to everyone.

Director Zhang had been observing the situation and immediately answered: "Isn't this good? Your friend made a mistake in settling the bill. How can we..."

Su Changqing stretched out her hand to stop him from continuing: "How do you know that the payment was wrong? Maybe he just wanted to help Director Zhang settle the payment?"

Director Zhang: "This is impossible, we don't know him..."

Su Changqing spread his hands: "I don't know you either, do you want to give me the money?"

Of course, this money cannot be collected. It was spread that a mysterious person paid for Director Zhang, and then Su Changqing took it back. This is too ugly.

If he had said these words yesterday, Director Zhang would have insisted on being reasonable and refunding the money, but now he has swallowed everything he said.

Uncertain and unknowable things are the easiest to confuse people's minds. Someone paid millions. Su Changqing is still not sure who it is. This in itself adds a mysterious aura to him.

Director Zhang and others certainly do not want to take advantage of this, but when good intentions cannot be refused, it also means that Su Changqing has been given some special authority.

Only then did Su Changqing truly understand why gifts from elders cannot be refused in Japan. Of course, it is not about money.

He looked at the watch on his wrist given by Ken Takakura.

Director Zhang, like Su Changqing, also spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "Look, there is such a strange thing, I can't refuse it."

Director Jiang shrugged: "Since it's a strange thing, don't embarrass Director Su."

"It's a nice night tonight," Su Changqing chatted for a few more words and then left. On the way out, he said to Ben Shanzi: "Let's have some drinks later when everything is fine?"
