The next morning, the wind was calm and the sun was beautiful.
The luster that spreads on the floor through the window is fresh and abundant. The luster climbs up the sheets to the bed quilt, and shines on Liu Yifei's exposed lotus-white arms, making her hands look crystal clear as if fragrance is overflowing.
.
Liu Yifei opened her eyes in a daze, moved away the hand that was holding Chu Xuan across the quilt on the bed, stretched back and touched the pillow randomly, took the phone over and checked the time, it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.
.
There was no filming for these two days. Counting the two days off on New Year's Eve and Spring Festival, it was equivalent to four days of rest for her and Chu Xuan.
After filming from morning to night for several days in a row, she and Chu Xuan were finally able to have a good rest.
I purposely turned off the alarm clock before going to bed last night, just to wake up naturally.
Liu Yifei remained motionless in her sleeping position, leaning sideways in Chu Xuan's arms, looking at Chu Xuan in a daze, as if he was about to wake up.
She was actually thinking about something. It was almost nine o'clock in the morning, and Ireland was coming to see her.
As early as last year, after she came to Los Angeles to meet Macron and his wife for the first time, she and Grande agreed to go together when they met again.
She was very glad that she had this agreement, otherwise she would have difficulty getting out of Chu Xuan's side now.
But, with Ailand as an excuse, what should I say to Chu Xuan specifically?
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Chu Xuan open his confused sleepy eyes, then close them again, lazily turning around to continue sleeping.
Liu Yifei was not happy anymore. Chu Xuan glanced at her and turned around, as if he disliked her. She stretched out her hand to pull Chu Xuan's body and forcefully turned Chu Xuan back to face her.
"Elland will come find me later." She reached into the quilt and pulled Chu Xuan's hand away, stroking Chu Xuan's waist and twisting it playfully.
"Hmm." Chu Xuan was half asleep and half awake. Hearing her words, he just said "Hmm" indifferently.
Liu Yifei put her left hand around Chu Xuan's head, took out her right hand from the quilt, and scratched Chu Xuan's nose: "I want to play with her for a day."
Chu Xuan opened his eyes: "What about me?"
Liu Yifei said: "You can move freely."
Chu Xuan closed his eyes: "You go play and leave me alone, right?"
Concubine Liu Yi touched Chu Xuan's face and said, "You don't like us going shopping."
She knew very well that Chu Xuan didn't like shopping very much, so she was going to use this to dispel Chu Xuan's thoughts.
However, Chu Xuan knew that Liu Yifei was deceiving him, so he refused to go along with it: "I haven't been to Los Angeles yet. I want to go shopping too, and I can help you carry your things."
If Chu Xuan usually said this, Liu Yifei would be happy, but saying it at this moment when she needed to escape made her a little helpless: "It's not a good idea to go into some women's products stores."
"Women's products?" Chu Xuan said: "Underwear store?"
"Yeah," Liu Yifei said.
"What's wrong with me going in?" Chu Xuan said, "I can also help you choose. Believe in my vision, I can definitely show off your beauty."
Liu Yifei showed off her beauty and said: "How can I show off my beauty when I wear it? Can I show it to you alone?"
"This is a good idea." Chu Xuan nodded repeatedly.
With a smile in her eyes, Liu Yifei removed her hand that was caressing Chu Xuan's cheek, reached into the quilt, punched Chu Xuan's stomach a few times, and wrestled a few more times.
Chu Xuan smiled, did not resist, and allowed Liu Yifei to beat him.
He kept his eyes closed, mainly because he was afraid that Liu Yifei would see through his eyes and guess what she and Ailand were going to do.
Both sides know each other very well, and their eyes are each other's biggest weakness.
Chu Xuan did not open his eyes. Liu Yifei really thought that Chu Xuan was not awake yet and was just joking with her while he was half asleep.
After some fun, Liu Yifei returned to the topic: "Ai Rande will also call her two friends. They don't bring their boyfriends, so it's not good for me to bring their family members."
She took her right hand out of the quilt and pinched Chu Xuan's face: "Be good and be obedient."
"If you don't listen, I will go." Chu Xuan shook his head.
"Ouch!" Liu Yifei was so angry that she unleashed her last big move and said in a very coquettish tone: "Give me some personal space!"
"It's not that I don't give you my private space." Chu Xuan paused: "The main thing is that I leave you, how should I live?"
Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment. This was the first time she heard Chu Xuan say such disgusting words.
She smiled broadly, held Chu Xuan's face, and kissed Chu Xuan's lips heavily: "What I said... I must give you a reward."
"Not enough." Chu Xuan said.
Hearing this, Liu Yifei also followed the sudden romantic atmosphere, released the sweetness in her heart, and kissed Chu Xuan's lips several times.
"That's enough. I'll be back early in the evening, okay." She hugged Chu Xuan's neck.
"Not even close." Chu Xuan continued to tease her.
Seeing that Chu Xuan still didn't let her go, Liu Yifei raised her eyes.
She rolled her eyes and thought of a good idea. She lowered her head and blew into Chu Xuan's ear: "Brother Xiaoyao."
"Hurry up, hurry up." Chu Xuan's scalp was numb. He didn't expect Liu Yifei's visit to bring up old things after several years, and this old thing was still a memory of the sublimation of their relationship. This really made him a little overwhelmed.
live.
Liu Yifei narrowed her eyes and smiled, "You can master the demo in minutes!"
She let go of Chu Xuan in her arms, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and happily went to the bathroom to wash up.
After Chu Xuan is settled, she can go to meet Macron and his wife with peace of mind.
If everything goes well, when she comes back in the evening, she decides to confess the matter to Chu Xuan and give Chu Xuan a big surprise.
Thinking of this made her look forward to what kind of reaction Chu Xuan would have after learning everything?
"Hello."
"When you arrive, I'll come down."
Ailand called and was picked up by Lu Tao from the airport at the door of the hotel.
After washing up, Liu Yifei came out of the bathroom and picked out clothes in front of the wardrobe.
White women's suit, white women's trousers, white women's small handbag, and a briefcase for documents.
Chu Xuan watched her change clothes and couldn't stand it anymore. He closed his eyes and turned around, laughing silently.
The sun is shining brightly. Wearing a suit to go shopping? And bringing a briefcase?
This silly girl, acting with you is very smart, you know?
After Liu Yifei got dressed, she ran to the bathroom and put on her earrings in front of the mirror.
After putting it on, she took a step back and looked in the mirror. Looking at her mature appearance in the mirror, she thought she could hold up the scene, right?
She smoothed her hair again, and her hair was still in a natural shawl shape.
"Forget it, that's it." She thought to herself, there was no time to fix her hair, so she had to go out like this.
Liu Yifei picked up her cell phone and called her mother. Her mother and sister Zeng Ni were out playing.
"Mom, Grande and I went out to play."
When it comes to acting and doing the whole thing, her mother knows what she is going to do, but Chu Xuan doesn't.
When she was talking to her mother on the phone in the bathroom, Chu Xuan outside would definitely hear her voice.
Seeing that she told her mother that she was just hanging out with Ailand, Chu Xuan wouldn't think too much about it, right?
Liu Yifei thought happily, thinking that she had completely fooled Chu Xuan out of sight. She came out of the bathroom and went to the bedside to pick up her small handbag, and then walked to the bedside where Chu Xuan was sleeping facing the window.
She leaned over and kissed Chu Xuan on the forehead: "My dear, I'm leaving."
Chu Xuan still didn't open his eyes and softly said "Hmm". Hearing the "thump thump thump" of the high heels getting away, he quietly narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Yifei's back.
Just wear a suit and go shopping with friends. He turned sideways and pretended not to notice.
But this silly girl just ran up to him, completely unaware that her dress was inconsistent with her lies.
It's as simple as it gets, but it's also very funny.
Liu Yifei had no idea that her dress had revealed the ulterior purpose of this trip. She didn't think much about it, she just thought that if she could deal with Chu Xuan verbally, everything would be fine.
She came to the door of the room and stopped suddenly, lowered her eyebrows and looked at her whole body again, and then opened the door after sorting herself out.
She closed the door with a bang and stepped onto the corridor carpet.
However, when compared one after another, the situation is completely different.
A moment ago, she was still a simple girl in Chu Xuan's eyes.
At this moment, her aura was at its fullest, and she was the queen.
"Sissy!"
Liu Yifei took the elevator to the first floor of the hotel. Halfway through the door, she saw the window of the back seat of the business car outside the door rolled down. Ailande waved to her happily.
The sisters had not seen each other for several months and only communicated on mobile phones. When they first met, they were filled with joy.
Liu Yifei couldn't help but quicken her pace, came to the car, opened the door, got in the car, and hugged Ailande tightly.
"really miss you."
"Me too."
In addition to Ai Rande, Lu Tao and Caitlin were also in the car. Liu Xiaoli specially ordered them to accompany Liu Yifei today.
Lu Tao started the car and the vehicle slowly drove onto the road, blending into the constant flow of cars.
Best friends had endless things to talk about when they met. Liu Yifei and Ailand chatted and shared their thoughts and experiences during the months they had not seen each other.
For Grande, without her best friend Liu Yifei, her life in New Haven has become a little boring, but she has new motivation and new goals to pursue.
Liu Yifei came to Los Angeles last time. In order to help her and Jack, she suggested that her family's clothing factory join the production link of Macron Film and Television to make the two families closer.
After Liu Yifei's suggestion, and then Jack taking the lead, her parents finally met with Macron and his wife, which was considered the first meeting and exchange between parents of both parties.
Although the meeting was a bit awkward, her parents knew that the Macrons had always disliked seeing their daughter, so there was still some subconscious resistance and displeasure.
But with her and Jack mediating between them, and the possibility of compatibility and mutual strength in their family businesses, the final exchange was fairly friendly.
But no matter what, all good visions must wait for Macron Film and Television to turn the crisis around.
She learned from her boyfriend Jack that there were several investors present today, and Liu Yifei was just one of them.
She was also worried about Liu Yifei, but not to much extent.
"Jack said that his parents are more optimistic about cooperation with Bright Times. Sissy, don't worry."
Hearing what she said, Liu Yifei smiled and nodded.
She could also guess that during the valuation period of Macron Film and Television, the Macrons must have taken the time to learn more about Brilliant Times.
Perhaps, among all investors, cooperation with Brilliant Times is the most beneficial to Macron Film and Television, so Jack asked Grande to tell Grande so in advance, and Grande told her to tell her, in order to reassure her.
Liu Yifei was indeed relieved and took out the documents from her briefcase to read.
The above are her records of the previous two discussions, as well as the letter of intent for cooperation that has been drawn up this time. She will review and consolidate it to see if there are any errors or omissions.
The contents of these files were all the notes and preparations she made on the computer while Chu Xuan was studying the video courseware sent by the school.
While she was studying, she was still dealing with matters of cooperation with Macron, which Chu Xuan really didn't know.
Seeing that Liu Yifei was immersed in the content of the document, Grande did not disturb the sisters, and the car fell into silence.
Half an hour later, the vehicle arrived at the office building where Macron Film and Television Company is located.
Only then did Liu Yifei come back to her senses, put the documents in her bag, got out of the car with Ellender and Caitlin, and Lu Tao drove to the parking area to wait.
"Sissi, long time no see." Jack, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, greeted Liu Yifei at the door.
"Jack, long time no see." Liu Yifei shook hands with him, and saw him and Grande hugging each other closely, kissing a few times in public.
She smiled like an aunt, and she and Chu Xuan have always been living in a happy atmosphere. She likes to have such beauty everywhere around her.
"Sorry." Jack smiled and reached in to signal: "Please."
As Liu Yifei and Jack walked along, they saw people dressed in professional attire. They also saw several celebrities whose names they couldn't name but who looked familiar.
While waiting for the elevator, she looked at the floor notice board next to her.
Macron Film and Television occupies three floors, which seems to be quite powerful.
The offices of Bright Times currently only have one floor, except for film and television companies and theater companies.
This shows that the size of a company's territory does not determine the strength of the company.
However, I heard Chu Xuan mentioned that if Longyou Company becomes a big success, then he and Sister Hua will consider building the Brilliant Times Building.
If Longyou Company is a big success, then she will be the boss lady, and she will also participate in the planning with Chu Xuan and Sister Hua, which she is looking forward to.
The elevator door opened, she put aside her distracting thoughts, walked into the elevator, and arrived at the floor where Macron Film and Television was located.
Jack took her to the company and met the Macrons.
"Ms. Sissi, we meet again, welcome." Macron and his wife were very enthusiastic. They stood up from the sofa and shook hands with Liu Yifei respectively.
"Hello, uncle and aunt." Liu Yifei called her uncle and aunt as Jack's friend, which made Macron and his wife very helpful and made them smile.
Although they had only met Liu Yifei once before, the couple had a deep impression on her.
In addition to his outstanding appearance, his pure sincerity to achieve cooperation is something that other investors do not have.
Other investors only care about their own interests, but Liu Yifei's cooperation model is a win-win situation.
Putting aside the friendship between Liu Yifei and Grande and Jack, from this point of view, just as Jack conveyed the news to Grande, the old couple prefers to cooperate with Bright Times.
Of course, what was discussed before was only Liu Yifei's side of the story. Firstly, there was no clear letter of intent for cooperation, and secondly, Chu Xuan and Wang Jinhua, who are the real masters of Bright Times, have not yet met to discuss the matter. The final result of the cooperation is still unknown.
However, the old couple also knew that the fact that Liu Yifei could come this time could normally represent the will of the Brilliant Era, and it also showed that she had the instructions of Chu Xuan and Wang Jinhua.
The old couple also knew that Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei joined the cast of "At War". The young couple was in Los Angeles. Could Chu Xuan not know that Liu Yifei came to the company to formally express his intention to cooperate?
Chu Xuan said: If my mother-in-law is not a spy, I really don’t know.
All I can say is, don’t look at Liu Yifei with normal thinking. There is a big difference between a humanistic and sophisticated way of thinking and a pure heart.
While others take one step and consider three steps when doing something, Liu Yifei only thinks about one step when doing something. She can't even guess what she will do next.
Just like how I deceived Chu Xuan in the morning, I only thought about how to successfully deceive Chu Xuan, and did not consider whether the subsequent details such as dressing were done well.
When doing things, you only consider the first step. The second and third steps have nothing to do with Liu Yifei.
This is also the reason why Liu Xiaoli often said that her daughter is big-hearted. She does things without considering the consequences. She just does it when she is interested. What impact will be caused in the process of doing things is completely outside the scope of Liu Yifei's consideration.
——As long as I like it.
Under the protection of Chu Xuan, Liu Xiaoli and Wang Jinhua, Liu Yifei's character has never changed and is as full of personality as ever.
"Liu Yifei, we meet again."
Liu Yifei and the Macron couple briefly exchanged greetings, and then came to the conference room with the couple.
As soon as I entered the conference room, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded.
Liu Yifei looked around and saw that it was Kim Jae Hee and this woman again!
She frowned slightly, but soon relaxed and returned to normal.
Kim Jae Hee stood up and walked over, wearing the same women's suit as Liu Ye Fei, but it was black.
There is an indescribable nobility in her gestures, which is in sharp contrast to Liu Yifei's heroic appearance in a white suit, but the two of them seem evenly matched.
"Do you two know each other?" Old Jack wondered.
Jack recalled the situation in the hotel cafe a few months ago and whispered: "Kim Jae Hee seems to be Liu Yifei's aunt."
Several people are very close together, and no matter how low the sound is, anyone who is not deaf can hear it.
Kim Jae Hee raised her hand to shake hands with Liu Yi Fei, but when she heard these words, her raised hand stopped in mid-air, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on her face that maintained a pretty smile.
Liu Yifei held back her laughter and took the initiative to reach out and lift Kim Jae Hee's hand and shake it: "Ms. Kim, we meet again. This is fate."
The Macron family did not understand Chinese, but seeing that they knew each other, they greeted them to sit down and then walked to the rostrum.
"It's not fate, I knew you were coming, so I came." Jin Zaixi sat down and said.
Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment, then slowly sat down on the chair.
You didn't come until you knew I was coming?
What does this woman mean?
Jin Zaixi glanced to the right and saw the person opposite: "He."
I glanced to the left and saw a person opposite: "He."
Looking at Liu Yifei: "I am here to accompany you, but they don't know that they are here to accompany you."
Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows but said nothing.
Chu Xuan often called her a witch, saying that her behavior was unpredictable.
She actually felt that this Kim Jae Hee was even more demonic. She had no idea what this woman was saying or what she wanted to express.
"The Brilliant Era has the Chinese market, and now it has begun to enter the film industry. It has also cooperated with Hong Kong entertainment giants like Ying Huang who have channels in Hollywood, and behind it is the support of the official company China Film."
"When choosing among our several investors, as long as Macron has a little foresight, Bright Times is the best choice."
Hearing what Kim Jae Hee said, Liu Yi Fei was even more confused.
Now that this woman has guessed the result, why would she come here in vain?
She didn't understand, but she didn't ask too many questions.
She hated the Riddler, who was so mysterious and pretentious.
What's more, this woman wanted to poach her before, which made her even more unfavorable to Kim Jae Hee.
"Welcome everyone..."
After the projector adjusted the picture, Old Jack began to speak.
Liu Yifei put away her distracting thoughts and listened attentively to Old Jack's speech.
There are a lot of words in the process-style scenes, but the focus is nothing more than talking about the needs of Macron's film and television.
Due to several consecutive investment failures, Macron Film and Television's capital chain was broken, and its demand was reduced to two levels.
First, in the case of only dividends, demand can provide Macron with capital investment for continued development.
Second, in the case of win-win cooperation, in addition to funds, various resources and channels within the scope of negotiation are also needed.
Even if Old Jack didn't say anything, Liu Yifei had analyzed this situation before.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! She still insists on her own ideas, just like she told Jack at the beginning: a stable partner, a win-win cooperation model, and sincerity in learning from each other's strengths.
The so-called stable relationship means that there is a friendship between Jack and Grande, cooperation based on a certain degree of affection, and both parties belong to two countries, and there is no real conflict of interest, which will make this cooperation more stable.
The so-called win-win situation is that everyone gets what they need, relying on the release of the film to share the box office profits in overseas and Chinese markets, as well as sharing each other's overseas and domestic channels.
The so-called learning from each other's strengths means that Bright Times shares a large amount of overseas novel film and television adaptation copyrights and filming funds to help Macron's film and television development, while Macron provides support, guidance and help in various aspects of production technology such as the film and television industry, high-end equipment, and special effects technology.
She had repeatedly discussed these three core points with her mother, and she also listed many detailed rules for this purpose.
But what she didn't know was that many of the suggestions her mother gave were discussed with Chu Xuan and Sister Hua.
This is equivalent to Chu Xuan, Liu Xiaoli and Wang Jinhua working together to help Liu Yifei grow up.
Liu Yifei didn't know this. In her opinion, according to these three core cooperation intentions, Macron and his wife should have no reason to refuse.
But after spending an afternoon in the conference room and submitting a letter of intent for cooperation, Macron and his wife had no clear reply.
"Give us a few days to think about it. Everyone, please move on and let's go enjoy dinner. Thank you again for coming."
Liu Yifei only felt that she was still impatient after all. How could she reply immediately after submitting the letter of intent for cooperation?
When she didn't get a clear answer right away, she felt a little uneasy again.
She planned to go back and tell Chu Xuan when she got the good news. Should she tell Chu Xuan now that she didn't have a specific answer?
She was a little entangled, fearing that the surprise that had been prepared for so long would go to waste.
But after much thought, she was still confident in her idea, and the Macrons had no reason to reject it.
But she didn't have the confidence to predict what the capitalists were thinking.
"Forget it, let's go back and tell Chu Xuan." She made a decision.
After the meal, Liu Yifei said goodbye to Grande and Jack.
After getting in the car, Lu Tao drove her back to the hotel.
The evening breeze blew outside the car window, and while she was enjoying it, she suddenly remembered something: "That's wrong, Chu Xuan didn't call me all day."
The reason why my mother didn't call was because she knew that she was discussing matters at Macron's company.
Chu Xuan didn't call her all day long. This was a bit unreasonable. He didn't care where she went at all?
This boyfriend, must he be going crazy today and forget about her as his girlfriend!
Liu Yifei was angrily, looking out the window at the night scene with her arms folded, as if she wanted to go back and see if her boyfriend had gone crazy.
She also didn't want to think about it, she was the one who had to leave Chu Xuan in the morning.
At this moment, Chu Xuan stopped calling to care, and he was the one who felt unhappy.
