Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 343 Powerful Network
After a heated discussion, except for Gong Yu, everyone present, including Yu Dong, showed satisfied smiles.

After all, everyone now knows that Nanxun Culture’s projects are sure to make money.

It can't be that a project that has always been profitable will not work for me, right?
After the cake was divided, the atmosphere on the scene was naturally very good. Everyone was toasting each other, and for a while the box was filled with laughter and it was very lively.

Although Gong Yu was a little disappointed that he failed to win the Starry Night, when he thought about next month's Fengquan and the good start of cooperation with Nanxun Culture, he thought that even if he didn't win the Starry Night, he still had a lighter!
Winning first doesn’t count as winning; the one who laughs last wins!

Thinking of this, the smile on Gong Yu's face became even warmer.

"Xiao Xiao, why do you look so unhappy?"

After finishing the business, Lin Li realized that Cheng Xiao was not in a good condition and looked distraught.

After a little thought, he understood what was going on, so he pretended to be confused and moved closer to her and asked.

"No, nothing. Maybe I didn't get enough rest."

Cheng Xiao raised his head and glanced at Lin Li, then quickly looked away and said sullenly.

"You still need to pay more attention to rest. Otherwise, I will talk to Mr. Gong and send you away first."

Lin Li frowned as he looked at Cheng Xiao who was not in a good condition.

"No, no need. Just do your thing first. I'll be able to recover after sitting for a while."

Cheng Xiao shook his head slightly and rejected Lin Li's proposal.

But she felt a little happier in her heart, at least she could feel that Lin Li cared about her.

"Okay, if you feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me."

Lin Li gave another warning before retracting his gaze.

"Ah."

Cheng Xiao responded softly without saying anything.

She secretly glanced at Lin Li and felt that his every move was so eye-catching and he was still so gentle to her.

Cheng Xiao felt a little dazed, with waves in his eyes, and he just wanted to remember Lin Li's expression firmly in his heart.

"dong dong dong"

At this time, a knock on the door attracted everyone's attention. Gong Yu's face turned cold and he looked at the door impatiently.

He was already a little annoyed because he had not been able to capture Xinghan today. Before coming in, he had instructed other people in the courtyard not to disturb him casually. Who was this blind guy?
"Go and open the door."

Gong Yu gave an order to the waitress behind him with an indifferent expression.

"Yes."

The waitress responded respectfully and walked quickly to the door, stretched out her hand to open it, and the moment she saw the face in front of her clearly, she immediately bowed respectfully and stepped back to make way.

Ok?
Everyone in the room was stunned. What was going on?
"Junior brother, I heard that you were also having dinner here, so I came here without inviting you."

"I hope I won't disturb your interest."

A deep and hearty voice sounded, and then a middle-aged man with a square face and dressed in black formal clothes appeared in front of everyone in the box.

As soon as they met, everyone in the box stood up subconsciously and bowed slightly.

The person who came was Liu Qiangdong, the head of JD.com!
"Senior Brother is here too! What a coincidence! Long time no see, Senior Brother!"

Lin Li was also a little surprised to see Liu Qiangdong. He left his seat and walked up to him and hugged him gently, but they separated immediately.

"Yeah, I was having dinner with some friends too, and I heard some people talking about you being here, so I thought I'd come over and say hello to you."

"I hope you don't mind me coming here uninvited."

Liu Qiangdong first looked at Lin Li for a few times, then turned his gaze to Gong Yu and others and said with a smile.

"Mr. Liu is too polite. Mr. Liu's presence here really makes this box more glorious."

"Yeah, I didn't expect to have the chance to meet Mr. Liu here today. It's really worth the trip."

"It is thanks to Mr. Lin that I have the opportunity to see Mr. Liu today!"

Gong Yu and others came forward and said compliments, and their faces were almost smiling.

After all, although they can all be called top figures in the entertainment industry, compared with Mr. Liu in front of them, they are not at the same level at all.

To put it bluntly, if Lin Li was not here, no one among them would be able to be looked at by Mr. Liu in the eye.

As for Bai Lu and Cheng Xiao, they were completely dumbfounded at this moment.

When they saw Liu Qiangdong, the boss of JD.com, appear in the room and be so familiar with Lin Li, they all felt dazed.

Bai Lu was better off, at least she had seen the two of them together once at the Starlight Awards cocktail party.

Cheng Xiao was completely bewildered throughout the whole process. He wondered how this person who was so far away from him could suddenly appear in front of him and seemed to have a very good relationship with Lin Li.

Isn't this a bit too good?
"Brother, why don't you sit down for a while and have a drink together?"

Lin Lixu held Liu Qiangdong's shoulder and extended the invitation.

"Yes, Mr. Liu, let's sit down and have a couple of drinks together."

"Yes, Mr. Liu, I have admired you for a long time, and today I finally get to meet you in person."

Gong Yu and others also tried to persuade him to stay.

After all, the person in front of them is not someone they can see whenever they want. Today is a rare chance to meet him. If they have a chance to establish a relationship with him, any little thing that flows out from between his fingers will benefit them a lot!

"I can't help you, Junior Brother. I have a few friends waiting for you there, two of whom are also alumni of Renmin University. I'll introduce them to you next time I have the chance."

"I appreciate your kindness, and we'll meet again next time we have the chance."

Liu Qiangdong patted Lin Li on the shoulder and explained, then looked at Gong Yu and others and said some polite words.

"Okay, brother, I'll invite you to come together next time."

Lin Li said with a look of regret.

"Come on, kid. I've asked you to come sit with me so many times, but you never come. Great writers are hard to invite."

"Oh no, he's a big director now, no wonder he's so hard to hire."

Liu Qiangdong first complained about Lin Li, and then he wasted no time in teasing him.

"Well... I'll definitely do it next time, I'll definitely do it next time."

Lin Li touched his nose awkwardly and started to make promises to Liu Qiangdong again.

"Alright you kid, let's go, I'll contact you later." "See you everyone."

Liu Qiangdong patted Lin Li's shoulder unhappily, then nodded to Gong Yu and others and turned to leave.

It came and went quickly, and it had a sense of vigor and decisiveness.

"Brother, walk slowly."

Lin Li greeted Liu Qiangdong from behind, and Liu Qiangdong waved back without even turning his head.

"Mr. Liu, walk slowly."

Gong Yu and others bowed and watched Liu Qiangdong leave, even though he couldn't see it. They only straightened up after they saw him walk out of the room and the door closed again.

"This Mr. Liu is really rare to see! Thanks to Mr. Lin today, otherwise we would not have the chance to meet him."

Wang Changtian was the first to break the silence and said with a smile.

"Yes! It seems that Mr. Lin and Mr. Liu have a very good relationship. Mr. Liu even came over to say hello."

Yu Dong also stepped forward and spoke, with inquiry in his words.

"Okay, everyone, please take a seat and let's sit down and talk."

"Please take a seat, Mr. Lin."

Gong Yu asked everyone to sit down, and even stepped forward, put his arm around Lin Li's shoulders, and led him to his seat and pushed him down.

After Lin Li sat down, Bai Lu and Cheng Xiao beside him both focused their gazes on him, with a look of wonder on their faces.

Before today, they had never thought that they would meet Jingdong in this way.

Lin Li could also clearly feel that after Liu Qiangdong appeared, the so-called bigwigs in the entertainment industry present became much more restrained.

But if you think about it, these companies in the entertainment industry are simply not comparable to JD.com.

It can even be said that JD.com is like their financial sponsor.

This time, I can be considered as the fox taking advantage of the tiger's power, right?

Gong Yu and the others exchanged glances, and the importance of Lin Li in their hearts increased a lot.

They almost forgot that Lin Li also had the support of the National People's Congress's huge network of relationships.

And judging from Liu Qiangdong's performance, Lin Li can fully utilize this network of relationships!
Impressive!
During the subsequent dinner, Lin Li basically spent the whole time being praised by Gong Yu and others.

Lin Li felt that it was fortunate that he could hold his alcohol tolerance well, otherwise, after drinking too much and listening to their compliments, he would not know what would happen.

While they were talking, Bai Lu kept adding wine to Lin Li's cup with a smile on her face, and occasionally gave him some side dishes to go with his wine.

After what happened just now, Cheng Xiao was no longer as depressed as before. Although he was still sitting alone in his seat, he would secretly glance at Lin Li from time to time, and his fair face was even stained with a few blushes.

The warm atmosphere lasted until nearly twelve o'clock when it ended at Gong Yu's suggestion. However, they did not leave. Everyone present would stay here overnight.

"Xiao Xiao, are you sure you don't want to stay here and rest?"

At the entrance of the courtyard, after the greetings were over and only Gong Yu and the two girls were left around, Lin Li looked at Cheng Xiao in front of him and said.

After the meeting, Cheng Xiao stepped forward and said goodbye, saying that she had not been back to the capital for a while and wanted to visit her home in the capital.

Of course Lin Li knew that she hadn't thought it through after hearing what Wang Changtian said, so he didn't force her.

Although he is not a good person, he will not do anything to force others and will do everything according to his own wishes.

"Well, it's a rare trip back home, so I'll go back and take a look. I have to go back to Korea tomorrow afternoon, so I won't stay here any longer."

Cheng Xiao raised his eyes and looked at Lin Li in front of him. His voice was soft and gentle, and the reluctance in his eyes was clearly visible.

"Don't forget that you still owe me a meal, Xiaoxiao."

Lin Li lowered his eyes to look at her, a soft light emanating from his dark pupils.

"Okay, I know. I won't forget it."

"Goodbye, Lulu. Goodbye, Mr. Gong."

Cheng Xiao was reminded of Lin Li's words and responded softly.

At the same time, they looked at Gong Yu and said goodbye.

"Goodbye, Xiaoxiao."

"See you, Miss Cheng."

Bai Lu and the other person responded.

"Then I'll be leaving first. See you, Teacher Nanxun."

Cheng Xiao looked at Lin Li deeply again, his voice soft and sticky.

"Goodbye Xiaoxiao."

Lin Li stood straight in front of Cheng Xiao with his hands behind his back and responded in a gentle voice.

Cheng Xiao nodded slightly, glanced at Bai Lu with complicated eyes, then turned and walked out of the courtyard.

Lin Li just stood there and watched her twisting her plump curves and walking away slowly.

"Then Mr. Lin, let the waiter lead you and Miss Bai to the guest room to rest. You two are in the same courtyard."

At this time, Gong Yu stepped forward and looked at Lin Li and said meaningfully.

"Then I'll take my leave today, Mr. Gong. Thank you for your hospitality."

Lin Li glanced at Bai Lu, whose expression was a little unnatural, and said with a smile.

"Mr. Lin, you're too polite. It's my duty."

Gong Yu said with a smile.

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

After saying goodbye, Lin Li and his companion left the courtyard under the guidance of the waiter.

"The night is long!"

Looking at the two people leaving, Gong Yu curled the corners of his mouth and sighed softly.
