"Lily." Shen Chong asked on the Guangjiu Express train back to Hong Kong: "Is Guangzhou fun?"

"It's fun, there are many magical places." Lily lowered her head and took a dozen Polaroids photos. She said while looking at it: "Although the economy is not good enough, she is friendly and hardworking."

"Show me the photos."

In Guangzhou, Chen Chong is very busy. In addition to contacting Zhujiang Film Studio, he also has to deal with the Guangzhou branch of China Book Import and Export Company. If the mainland wants to subscribe to "Movie Age", it needs overseas relatives and friends to purchase it, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, the distribution channel of book import and export companies is the main force of magazine sales in the mainland.

He didn't have time to accompany Lily, so Torover found a tour guide and took her around to visit.

Lily is worthy of being a tourist expert. In three days, she traveled alleys of Guangzhou, and also went to attractions such as the Eight Scenery of Yangcheng, and took hundreds of photos.

Among these photos, some are scenery, some are buildings, some are characters, some are utensils, and the most common are taking photos, Lily and children taking photos, taking photos with the elderly, taking photos with girls, and taking photos with uncles...

In these photos, you can clearly feel the difference between China and foreign countries at that time. Lily dresses in a fashionable manner and her posture is natural, while mainlanders dress monotonously and have a restrained expression.

However, among many of the characters captured by Lily, Chen Chong can clearly feel friendly and enthusiastic, as well as vigorous passion.

"Lily, how do you feel about China this trip?"

"When I was a child, my father told a lot of Chinese folk stories, and I also read some sensational reports in the United States, so before this trip, I had a lot of strange fantasies about China." Lily put down the photo and said, "Allen, do you know, I was in Guangzhou and I felt like a fish entering the sea. It was very comfortable and wonderful. I really wanted to stay there for a while."

Lily is not only proficient in Cantonese and Mandarin, but also knows how to write calligraphy, memorize ancient poems, practice Tai Chi, and even play a little pipa. She has been exposed to a lot of traditional Chinese culture. I really don’t know how my uncle taught me in the United States.

In this way, when she returned to the mainland, she naturally felt like a fish in water under the traditional Chinese cultural atmosphere.

"So that's the case." Chen Chong invited: "After you graduate, come to Hong Kong to work."

"Hong Kong is too small, I can't stay there."

"It is very convenient to come to Hong Kong to enter the mainland. After you come, I will find you a job that can travel all over the world for free."

"What job, a tour guide?" Lily said: "The tour guide is boring and can only wander around one place."

"Not a tour guide." Chen Chong put down a photo of a child making a face and said, "I plan to set up a TV station that specializes in shooting and playing documentaries. Are you interested?"

"Really, that's great!" Lily said in surprise, "I've always dreamed of doing such a job. When will the TV station start broadcasting?"

"Don't worry, it's very troublesome to build a TV station in Hong Kong." Chen Chong said: "But I can guarantee that when you graduate in two years, the TV station will definitely be built."

"What do you want to do in Hong Kong? Go to the United States?" Lily was very anxious. She suggested: "You are so rich, go to the United States to buy a small TV station. It's very cheap and will be broadcast soon, and there are more American audiences than Hong Kong."

"U.S. law does not allow foreigners to own TV stations." Chen Chong said while sorting out his photos: "And I don't want to be naturalized in the United States."

"But I'm an American," Lily said, "You can buy a TV station in my name, or my dad's name."

"Operation of a TV station is not that simple." Chen Chong smiled, and handed the photo to Lily, saying, "Please pack the photo and you're about to reach the terminal."

Lily stuffed the photos into her backpack randomly and said excitedly: "Since you can guarantee that there will be a TV station in two years, we can shoot a documentary in advance."

"Don't get rid of school and go to school honestly." Chen Chong stood up, carried his luggage and said, "Don't do anything before graduation, otherwise your father will come here and you will never want to make a documentary in your life."

"That's right." Lily was upset.

"Two years have passed, and it's a huge project to shoot a documentary, so I can't be anxious." Chen Chong comforted her and asked, "I'll go to Taipei tomorrow, will you?"

"Of course I have to go." Lily nodded immediately and said, "Hong Kong, Mainland, Taiwan, I will only be perfect for this summer vacation."

"There is still Macau." Chen Chong added, saying, "I have been busy these days and haven't treated you well. When I come back from Taipei, I will accompany you to Macau and do my best to do my best as a landlord."

...

Taipei, in the office of the general manager of the Taiwan branch of Oriental Charming Film Company.

Chen Chong sat opposite Zhang Aijia, put down the documents in his hand, and asked, "How is it like starting a company?"

"very tired."

Chen Chong said oh, without saying a word, touched his chin, and looked at her with a very focused look.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Aijia was puzzled. She touched her cheek and asked uneasyly: "Is there something on my face?"

"Nothing is beautiful, it's beautiful." Chen Chong withdrew his gaze and said with a smile: "I've never seen a beautiful woman who said she was tired but was radiant, so I couldn't help but look at it for a while."

Zhang Aijia smiled sweetly and glanced at him, her eyes circling, and her charm was endless.

"It's very tiring," she said, leaning lazily on the office chair, "But it's quite interesting and fun."

"Funny is not a good word." Chen Chong stroked his forehead with his hand and said, "The company uses it to make money, not for you to play."

"But you said in the phone message that I can do whatever I want. Isn't it just a play?"

"When chasing girls, men always pretend to be bold and say some exaggerated words." Chen Chong complained: "Sister Zhang, you are so beautiful, how can you take it seriously?"

"I have never seen someone as lazy as you." Zhang Aijia was amused and said, "I want to please others and want to work. How can there be such a good thing in the world?"

"There are clouds in ancient times. Red sleeves add fragrance to the night reading, talented men read, and beauty holds lights." Chen Chong smiled and said, "Look, since ancient times, beauty has been used to do things."

"How could you explain that..."

Before going to the mainland, Chen Chong left a signed document and ordered his secretary to hand over the documents to her when Zhang Aijia came back from Japan to attend the celebration meeting of "Crazy Job".

In the document, Chen Chong hired Zhang Aijia as the general manager of the Taiwan branch of Oriental Charming Film Company, and had the power to invest in five movies with a budget of less than HK$1 million each year.

1 million Hong Kong dollars, equivalent to about NT$8 million. For Taiwanese movies, such a budget is very abundant. (Note 1)

The document states that Chen Chong does not make any restrictions or makes rigid regulations on profits. She can invest in any movie theme according to her own preferences.

Zhang Aijia has a lot of ideas about film production and has always been interested in the development behind the scenes. Last year, he invested in a film company with Zhou Liangshuyi, a strong woman who dominated the Hong Kong TV industry. However, with the bankruptcy of Jiayi TV, Zhou Liangshuyi left the TV industry sadly, and the film company ended in vain. (Note 2)

Therefore, the temptation of this appointment letter to her can be imagined.

I spend 5 million Hong Kong dollars every year and open a company for you to play. It is more creative and sincere than giving flowers and diamond rings...

Moreover, according to the contract, if Zhang Aijia accepted the appointment, she would be very busy. During the two months when Shen Chong went to the mainland, she basically had no energy or time to consider getting married.

This is also a trick that Chen Chong played.

Of course, Chen Chong is not the sucker who spends money without any brainstorms to win the favor of women. The main reason why he dares to sign such a contract is Zhang Aijia's own ability.

Zhang Aijia has invested in and run a film company, has operational experience, and is very sensitive to film art. According to history, when she dominated the Taiwan branch of the New Art City, she was a participant and one of the behind-the-scenes players of the Taiwan New Film Movement. Yang Dechang, Hou Hsiao-hsien and others were able to make their mark, which played a great role.

With experience, ability, and strong family background and complex interpersonal network, she is an ideal candidate to open up the Taiwanese film market - whether she is married or not.

An annual investment of HK$5 million is a complete loss for the storm with three gold-absorbing lines. If this 5 million can stir up a stagnant Taiwanese film market or discover a few talented newcomers, it will be a profit.

Zhang Aijia got the documents from Xiaoyu, and after thinking about them for a few days, she signed the name on it and accepted the job.

She did not disappoint Chen Chong. In two months, she built the Taiwan branch of Oriental Charming Film Company and is now preparing to shoot the first movie.

"Boss Shen." After chatting with Shen Chong for a while, Chang Aijia sat upright and asked, "How do you feel about this movie I chose to invest in?"

"Don't, call me A Chong. You and I'm too disagreeing." Chen Chong raised his palm, made a shirk gesture, and said, "To be honest, I haven't read the script you sent to Hong Kong."

"Why not watch?"

Chen Chong said righteously: "I promised that the Taiwan company will let you do anything, and I won't interfere."

"I didn't let you interfere." Zhang Aijia picked up a manuscript, threw it over, and said, "I'm asking you to see if there is any need to change the script."

"This..." Chen Chong put the manuscript in front of him, looked at the name on the author's column, and said, "I have no research on scripts."

"Don't you feel hypocritical when you say this?" Zhang Aijia despised him and said, "Isn't it good to change "Crazy Job"? This time I came to Taipei and said I was here to inspect the new company. But I took two scripts to Brother Qiu with me as soon as I got off the plane. I even said that I had no research on the script."

I like to modify scripts, but this is Hou Hsiao-hsien's script...

And I haven't seen this movie...

How can I change it?

"Okay, I'll study it." Chen Chong complained in his heart, and opened the script casually and asked, "How did you know that I went to Editor-in-Chief Qiu yesterday?"

"Is there anything I don't know in Taipei?" Zhang Aijia smiled and said, "You can read the script here. I'll go find Lily and have lunch together."

"OK."

Before leaving the door, Zhang Aijia turned around and said, "Lily is so beautiful, she is also your confidante?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Chen Chong waved his hand repeatedly and said awkwardly; "She is my cousin, a real cousin."

Seeing Chen Chong's reaction fiercely, Zhang Aijia couldn't help but be stunned. She bit her lip and said jealously: "Boss Shen, you are so charitable."

Chen Chong was stunned, and then suddenly remembered that it seemed that in Hong Kong and Taiwan, could his cousins ​​get married?

"Lily is just like my own sister." He said seriously: "There is absolutely no bad intentions."
