Chapter 1182: Chapter 475: Tang Xintian: I Can Go on Blind Dates Anytime
Han Lie, who had made a good name for himself in the business world of Fujian Province, returned to the Magic Capital only to be chased for debts as the first order of business.
“When exactly are you going to fulfill the share you promised me?”
Da Cheng grabbed his nose and asked aggressively, ready to yank it forcefully if necessary.
“New fund, I’ll reserve a portion for you, alright?”
Han Lie was particularly helpless, thinking if they weren’t in the car… huh!
“I want a billion! At least!”
Da Cheng immediately beamed with joy and then pushed her luck further.
But at the same time, she switched from tugging to rubbing to show some appeasement.
Han Lie had some doubts: “Do you really need that much?”
“Are you kidding? The entertainment industry is so big…”
“How big exactly? In this crappy circle, how many people are actually worth befriending?”
According to Han Lie, in the vast entertainment industry, only a handful of directors, a few actors, and several screenwriters and producers are truly noteworthy.
The rest, those seemingly glamorous but potentially collapsing short-term stars, were hardly worth a second glance.
However, Gu Zicheng didn’t see it that way.
“Oh come on! Don’t worry about it. Everyone who can become popular in this circle has value to be utilized. You may not see it, but I do! Too bad you’re still too small in scale, otherwise, I’d even want to dabble in cinemas…”
“Dare to dream!”
Han Lie scoffed, suddenly lost in thought.
Huh?
As it turns out, there’s indeed potential in cinemas in the future…
When Brother Jianlin failed his second IPO later on, and the wager agreement took effect, equity turned into debt, and he immediately had to face debts of several billion, seemingly by breaking up and liquidating his cinema chain?
If preparations were made in advance, having over a hundred billion at hand could basically seal the deal.
Then flipping it over and giving it to Gu Zicheng, how much experience would that be?
Oh, it’s possible that all eight attributes would graduate directly…
The more Han Lie thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, but it was just too late, and the long-term strategy couldn’t quench his immediate thirst.
So Han Lie didn’t reveal anything and just agreed to Da Cheng’s current demand.
“Alright, I’ll give you a billion, but you have to act quickly. This fund is set up as a tribute to the founders of those pending investment companies, and it needs to launch by mid-month at the latest, so there’s not much time left.”
Gu Zicheng was completely satisfied and planted a kiss on him.
Mumbling: “Don’t worry, for the next half month, I won’t be doing anything else but having meetings with them!”
Once the matter was settled, Gu Zicheng became so busy she barely touched the ground.
And then Sister Da Tang had a rough time.
“Scram!”
She kicked Deku Lie with her bare foot: “Get out of my house! If you don’t leave, I’ll call the police!”
Half an hour later, she didn’t dare dial 110, but almost called 120…
Then she avoided Deku Lie for a full half month, not even daring to go home on weekends and flew to the Imperial Capital to visit her parents.
The main issue was, she couldn’t accept any dining companion other than Gu Zicheng.
She was quite strong-willed.
Gu Zicheng was someone she’d known since childhood, and their family backgrounds were similar; no other woman could match up to dine on dog meat with her.
Pan Ge might match, but Sister Da Tang couldn’t bring herself to ask.
In the end, going home didn’t turn out well either.
Her mother was particularly enthusiastic, made a bunch of delicious food, and then when they were almost done eating, Old Tang suddenly asked slowly, “I heard someone say you’ve been getting close to a young lad with a fiancée in the Magic Capital?”
In an instant, her appetite vanished.
Sister Da Tang didn’t lift her head, casually retorted, “Who did you hear gossiping?”
Her level of psychology was high, unfortunately, Old Tang’s level was even higher.
“Whether it’s gossip depends on the facts, not how you argue it. Tell dad, what are you thinking?”
Tang Xintian’s mother was a straightforward Imperial Capital woman, but at this moment, she stayed silent, looking at her daughter with worry.
Sister Da Tang thought for a bit and chose to avoid the key points.
“I just consider him a friend, or rather like a mentor and a friend. I don’t have that strong romantic feeling or possessiveness toward him, but I thoroughly enjoy being guided by him, progressing together, having our wisdom spark during exchanges.”
Old Tang raised an eyebrow: “Just that?”
Her mother couldn’t hold back finally: “If you like him, you should go for it, don’t wrong yourself.”
“I’m not wronging myself.”
Tang Xintian was very firm: “At least, I’m not wronging myself now. Anyway, I don’t plan on finding a boyfriend or getting married anytime soon. Having a good friend without the need for extra adjustments feels quite enjoyable for me.”
Old Tang stayed silent, wordlessly continued eating.
Instead, her mother sighed, looking quite saddened.
“You child, you’ve been so determined since young. I’ve found several potential mates for you, but you had to mix with a young man who already has a fiancée, sigh…”
“Ha!”
Tang Xintian hugged her mother’s shoulders and laughed heartily.
“As long as the quality is truly high, it’s fine by me!
My requirements are pretty simple: first, his IQ should feel like it’s crushing mine, second, he must have an extensive knowledge base, third, he has to be confident but not arrogant, and fourth, his appearance and charisma need to be presentable…
As for family background, wealth, and age, I’m not that picky. If you think he’s good, then he’s good.
How’s that? I’m not brushing you off, right?
If I do find the right match, without you having to urge me, I’ll marry him instantly!”
“Really?!”
Her mother was overjoyed, rubbing her hands together eagerly.
Tang Xintian nodded vigorously: “Really!”
Then she changed the tone: “But remember, if several don’t pan out, I have something to say. My job’s already busy enough, you can’t keep causing me stress, right?”
