Three years ago, Chen Feng was still a homeless man with no fixed address.
But now three years later, he has become the richest man in the world as if he had created a miracle. This experience is so dreamy and unreal that everyone can hardly believe it.
Just like before, Chen Feng only released an English song album with only 10 songs, and then in less than a year it became the world's highest-selling album. He also became the singer with the largest total album sales in the world.
Even though this is an ironclad fact, it is still hard for everyone to believe it.
Many people still find it incredible when talking about this incident. Many people even suspected that this was fake news or that Chen Feng was falsifying data.
But obviously the facts are facts and can completely withstand verification and the test of time.
Liu Qian also knew about this, and couldn't help but whisper to Chen Feng in private: "Boss, are you now the richest man in the world?"
Chen Feng gave him a look to understand, but did not answer his words directly.
Affected by this news, the staff and actors in the crew obviously looked more serious, which Chen Feng did not expect.
However, if you think about it carefully, it is completely understandable. Who doesn’t want to make a good impression on the world’s richest man and build a good relationship with the world’s richest man?
Besides, Chen Feng, the world's richest man, is still personally directing this movie. Why can't they be serious and work hard?
This is a good thing. The bad thing is that when the crew wants to go out for filming, it becomes more difficult than before.
Previously, because Chen Feng was so famous, it was very normal for him to go out for filming and then be recognized and be watched by many people.
For this reason, Chen Feng had to spend more money to hire security personnel to maintain order on the scene. At most, there were more than thirty security personnel in total, plus other miscellaneous personnel on the crew, there could be fifty or sixty people.
Therefore, when shooting on location in the past, order could still be maintained.
But now that the news about the world's richest man has come out, it's a bit unsatisfactory. Not only does his fan base continue to expand, and the number of idiot fans continues to increase, those media reporters want to interview him one by one and follow him.
In the end, Chen Feng could only call the police.
Fortunately, there were only a few scenes left during the location shooting. After being watched by thousands of people and even calling the police to maintain order, Chen Feng could only suspend the filming of the location and shoot the indoor scenes first.
After almost a month or so, the news about him, the world's richest man, has finally subsided.
It's just that Chen Feng's cell phone still rings non-stop every day, and he has already changed two private numbers. But someone still has the uncanny ability to find him.
Most of them are domestic people. They are from a certain fund company, a certain securities company, a certain local investment promotion office, a certain well-known domestic entrepreneur, a celebrity, etc.
Therefore, Chen Feng basically does not use his personal mobile phone during the day, and even his work mobile phone is given to his cousin Zhao Wenxiu.
Only communicate with your relatives and friends through mobile phone chat software, and set it up so that only your friends can contact you. In this way, you will finally be less harassed by the outside world.
The time soon came to October. Because Chen Feng had to continue filming "The Godfather", he did not go to Poland with Catherine to participate in the Chopin International Piano Competition.
In fact, he couldn't go either. Because if he went, it would definitely cause a sensation, which would put pressure on the piano competition and thus affect Catherine's performance.
Now that Chen Feng is not going to the scene, Catherine may be more relaxed.
You know, he has been recognized as the new richest man in the world. This identity has been certified and confirmed by many authoritative media and institutions.
As the world's richest man, it can be said that his words and deeds are the focus of media attention around the world. If he had been at the piano competition in the past, he would undoubtedly attract a lot of media attention. This is not what Chen Feng wants.
While Catherine was participating in the competition, Chen Feng continued to strive for excellence in filming his "The Godfather". Of course, he kept in touch with Catherine every day, either by phone or social media, which was very convenient.
As expected, Catherine entered the semi-finals, semi-finals and finals.
On the day of the finals, Chen Feng had a video call with him, encouraged her for a few minutes, and told her some things to pay attention to.
Then I waited patiently for the results of the finals.
The final result did not disappoint Chen Feng. Catherine finally won the gold medal in the Chopin International Piano Competition and became the youngest winner of the gold medal in history.
Regarding this result, Chen Feng was a little surprised and not surprised. Surprisingly, Catherine performed exceptionally. Because according to Chen Feng's previous understanding of her piano level, it was still difficult for her to win the gold medal.
Not surprisingly, Catherine's piano skills are definitely the best in the world among her peers. Coupled with her extraordinary performance, it is reasonable to win the gold medal.
After winning the award, Catherine shed tears of excitement and immediately called Chen Feng to inform Chen Feng of the good news. Thousands of words turned into just one sentence: "Thank you, Master."
Catherine has already gained a certain degree of fame and popularity around the world due to the release of the piano single "Girl's Prayer", coupled with her angelic temperament and beauty.
Now, because she has won this most prestigious and prestigious award in the piano industry, her fame has soared to the top.
Later, the master-disciple relationship between Catherine and Chen Feng was also dug out by the powerful media. Then, many people realized that Chen Feng, the legendary singer, the world's richest man, was also a pianist and composer.
The existence of such monsters really makes many people feel despair.
Why are you the richest man in the world at such a young age, and also the king of folk songs, a legendary singer, pianist, composer, actor, and director? Why are you so outstanding and evil?
After Catherine returned with great honor, her parents held a very grand celebration party for her at their family manor. Not only did they invite many relatives and friends, they also invited many pianists, composers, and conductors from the classical music circle.
Performer.
Of course, these people are very willing to come and participate, and some even come from as far away as Russia.
There are many other celebrities who came uninvited. They either contacted the Matthews and his wife through various connections, or they came directly with gifts to congratulate them. Did the Matthews and his wife turn them away?
Therefore, the celebration party on this day can be said to be overcrowded. The Matthew and his wife's manor villa is large enough, but after so many uninvited guests came over, the place felt a little insufficient.
Not to mention crowded, but with people coming and going, it looked like going to a market.
Chen Feng had to pause the filming of "The Godfather" again that day and brought Miranda over to express his congratulations.
Then, when Chen Feng, the world's richest man, appeared, he was immediately surrounded by these guests. They all rushed to get acquainted with him, but Chen Feng couldn't keep a straight face on such occasions and refused to stay away.
Outside, they can only treat each other with courtesy and are tired of dealing with it.
Fortunately, Matthew and his wife arrived and helped him out. They took him directly into his daughter's boudoir.
At this time, Catherine's boudoir was filled with all kinds of gifts. She received more gifts than she received on her last sixteenth birthday.
"Master, you are finally here. I thought you wouldn't come. Is your movie finished yet?"
Catherine was a little curious about how Chen Feng, a master, worked so tirelessly to make a movie, but mostly she couldn't understand it.
In her opinion, as her master is so powerful and rich, there is really no need to make movies by herself. In fact, this is what most people think. Miranda is the same. She has called Chen Feng several times before.
He returned to Fremont to take charge of the overall situation. After all, the business of Shengtang Mobile Phone was so good now.
The smartphones produced by Fremont and the Shencheng foundry are not enough to sell. Every day can be said to be a mountain of gold and silver to make money. As the boss, Chen Feng does not handle such a large business in the company. It is really unreasonable.
In the end, of course, they were all unsuccessful. Chen Feng was determined to make "The Godfather" and make it well.
Miranda had no choice but to give up after several attempts to persuade her to no avail.
"I will definitely come today. The movie will be shot soon. This is my gift to you."
Chen Feng said and handed her his gift bag.
"Ah, is it a gift for me? Can I open it now and take a look?" Catherine asked excitedly.
"certainly."
Catherine couldn't wait to open the gift bag and took out a gift box. When she opened it, she found a crystal piano with exquisite and unique shape.
No girl wouldn't like such an exquisite gift. And it's in the shape of a piano, not to mention it will satisfy Catherine.
Sure enough, when Catherine saw the crystal piano, her eyes widened and she said with surprise: "It's great. I like it. I like it so much. Thank you, Master."
"As long as you like it." Chen Feng felt relieved when he saw that she was satisfied. In fact, Miranda had prepared this gift for him, and of course it was approved by Chen Feng.
Then Miranda also sent her own gift to Catherine. Catherine also expressed her gratitude, but did not open it on the spot.
In other words, Chen Feng was her master, and she wanted to know what kind of gift he gave her so much that she was so anxious.
"There are too many people here, and they are all too enthusiastic about me. I will leave early, so don't be angry."
Taking advantage of Catherine's good mood, Chen Feng revealed his plan.
Catherine said with some reluctance: "Can't you stay a little longer? I haven't had a good talk with you for a long time."
Miranda on the side smiled and said: "As my girlfriend, I haven't spoken to him for a long time. If it weren't for your celebration party this time, I wouldn't have seen him for almost two months."
"Master, this is your fault." Catherine pretended to be serious and said, "No matter how busy you are at work, you can't ignore your girlfriend. Doing this will affect your relationship with Randa."
Chen Feng smiled helplessly and said: "I just said that the film will be shot soon. It will take about ten days at most. By then, I will have time to accompany Landa. The same goes for you."
"That's great. I'll go back to live tomorrow and wait for you to come back." Catherine clapped her hands happily.
Marcia on the side reminded with some resentment: "Kailin, this is your home."
Catherine looked at Marcia with a smile and said: "Mom, Master's place is also my home. Besides, I'm used to living there. The terrain there is high, the scenery is good, and the room is comfortable. Master, don't you think so?"
Chen Feng could only smile a little and say haha.
Marcia rolled her eyes at her daughter and said to Chen Feng with some embarrassment: "I'm really sorry that she has been living at your place and bothering you."
Chen Feng smiled and said: "Didn't Catherine say that my place is also her home. It doesn't matter how long she stays."
"I'm really sorry to trouble you." Marcia felt very sorry.
"Okay. No more polite words." Chen Feng waved his hand, changed the topic and asked Catherine, "Catherine, you have won the gold medal in the Chopin International Piano Competition. Do you have any plans in the future?"
"Master, are you talking about my future life plan?" Catherine asked with a smile.
Chen Feng nodded and said: "Yes. You are only sixteen years old now. Although you have won such an international award, you are considered to be very skilled. But I still hope that you will not be proud and complacent, and plan your future life well.
"
Catherine said simply: "I will listen to you, Master."
Chen Feng smiled and shook his head: "You have to think about it yourself. I can't make decisions for you about your life."
Marcia said quickly: "I want to send Catherine to the Conservatory of Music to continue her studies. The Berklee College of Music is very good. A music professor there has already contacted me and expressed his willingness to accept Catherine as his student."
Catherine immediately curled her lips and objected: "I will not ask anyone else to be my master. I only have one master."
Marcia scolded softly: "He accepts you as a student, not as an apprentice. This professor has made very good achievements in the music industry and is a recognized music master. The students he accepts are carefully selected. Almost every student
Both are now musicians renowned at home and abroad."
Catherine shook her head stubbornly and said: "I don't want to do it anyway. Although I like piano, I don't mean that I like classical music. I have no idea of continuing to study classical music systematically. I want to continue to learn from the master. What does he teach?
I will learn whatever I want."
"You kid." Marcia was a little angry. Not all parents in the United States advocate open and free education. In fact, many parents in the United States, like parents in the Tang Dynasty, hope that their children will succeed and want their children to follow the instructions.
Study and work hard for the life you planned for them.
"Okay, let's talk about this later." Matthew, the peacemaker, finally appeared.
Chen Feng also said quickly: "Yes. Let's talk about this later. Today is a celebration party, so don't talk about such serious issues. It's also my fault. I shouldn't have asked Catherine like that just now."
"Master, how can I blame you? It's my mother who is making trouble unreasonably." Catherine defended Chen Feng and said.
Chen Feng could only smile bitterly.
Marcia was very angry. Fortunately, she also knew that it was not easy to have trouble with her daughter today, so she could only glare at her daughter, say "I'm going to entertain the guests", and then went out.
