Huayu: I'm reborn, but you still force me to be a scumbag?

Chapter 248 Fan Binbing: I am also a legend

Fan Binbing drove slowly, and when she arrived at the gate of the Korean Specialized School near Chen Nuo's home, Choi Sulli must have been waiting for a long time.

Fan Binbing looked at the tall girl standing at the school gate, looking around, and asked curiously, "Is this your Korean sister?"

Chen Nuo said "hmm".

Fan Binbing sighed slightly and said, "Your parents are really good people." There seemed to be something else in her tone.

Chen Nuo knew a little bit about her family's situation, and every family has its own problems.

"Okay, just put me down here."

Fan Binbing asked in surprise: "Why?"

Chen Nuo said, "Why? There's no place to park here. Wait for me in the car. When I'm done, you can tell me about your show."

Fan Binbing chuckled and said, "Wait until you're done? I'm afraid you'll run away by then."

Chen Nuo was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "How is that possible?"

In fact, he really thought so. When he finished his work, he would call Linghu and ask him to come to the school gate. Then he and Cui Xueli would get in the car and run away.

Because when they were in the car, Fan Binbing had just finished talking about the Asian Film Awards, and he had just agreed to it.

Then, she said that when Chanel's design director invited her to watch the year-end fashion show held in Hong Kong, he asked her if she could invite Mr. Chen Nuo as well.
When the time comes, arrange a first-row seat for her and him that will definitely not be taken away by others or require squeezing to sit.

Chen Nuo didn't quite understand, but Fan Binbing felt that this position seemed to be worth competing for, so this woman was trying to trick him into going to the show again, which made him very annoyed.

Fan Binbing said, "I'm just kidding. I just helped my brother with the admission procedures. Let me handle this. If you show up, it will make too much noise."

After saying that, Fan Binbing didn't wait for Chen Nuo to reply. He stepped on the accelerator and stopped the car directly next to Cui Xueli. He lowered the window of the driver's seat and said, "Little beauty, get in the car."

If we talk about the Chinese actress with the most star-like temperament in daily life in 2008, if Fan Binbing is willing to be second, then perhaps only Gong Li can say, "Why don't I try to be first?"

At this moment, when Fan Binbing drove a sleek, shiny and powerful black G-Class, revealing his upper body,

Holding the steering wheel with one hand, looking sideways,

Although her black hair covered half of her face and a pair of large sunglasses also covered her eyes, her bright red cherry mouth and her fair and delicate natural chin, which was unique in China, Japan and South Korea,
This is enough to shock a little Korean trainee like Choi Sulli who has little experience.

It's not just Choi Sulli.

When the Korean girl got into the car at Chen Nuo's invitation, Fan Binbing stepped on the accelerator and drove directly to the school gate. The 40-year-old security guard who came out to check the situation was unable to speak at first in front of her.

"Master, please open the door so we can go in and complete the admission procedures for our child." Fan Binbing seemed completely unaware of the yellow sign on the ground at the door with large characters written on it - No outside vehicles allowed. She asked in a very natural manner.

The security guard came to his senses, shook his head and said, "No, no, our school does not allow vehicles from outside to park. You can go to the parking lot in front and go straight for 20 meters..."

Without waiting for the security guard to finish his words, Fan Binbing took off his sunglasses, raised the corners of his mouth, revealed a hint of a smile, and said with a heavier tone: "Master, I'm a novice driver and I can't find the way at all. Sorry to bother you~"

This is really a foul.

Even though the security uncle just came to Beijing this year and was introduced by an acquaintance to work as a security guard here, he doesn't know any celebrities. He may not even recognize five celebrities in all of China.

But that's enough.

Among the five, Fan Binbing must be one of them.

Chen, who might be one of the twenty, didn't even blush. He looked at the retractable door at the school gate slowly moving and shook his head and sighed: "Amazing. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to get in."

Fan Binbing thanked the blushing security guard, then rolled up the car window and turned to say, "I can only go to school, which is far from being one of the top ten outstanding young people in China in 2008. When the time comes, you may be able to enter the Great Hall by showing your face."

Chen Nuo shook his head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. We are still in the public announcement stage. It's just a nomination. It will definitely not be my turn in the end."

Fan Binbing laughed in surprise: "Why, do you think one Oscar is not enough?"

Chen Nuo thought for a moment and said, "At least, a Best Supporting Actor award is not enough."

Fan Binbing was silent for a while, then found a parking space in this rather large school and parked the car. He said, "Then you...seem to have to hurry up, because it seems that you can't take the exam if you are over 29."

Chen Nuo had never checked it before, but after hearing what Fan Binbing said, he counted on his fingers and it seemed that there were only... 12345, 6 years left.

Six years, which means that if he is interested, he has to win an award higher than the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor before 2014.

Then try to see if you can walk into the Great Hall of the People in 2014 together with those outstanding people from all walks of life and put an end to your youth without regrets.

Thinking about it, it makes me feel both sad and excited.

How did he, a blogger on TikTok, end up like this?

...We really need to hurry up.

At this time, Fan Binbing parked the car, turned around to look at Cui Xueli who was sitting in the back seat without saying a word, and suddenly smiled, "The little girl is quite cute. So your mother likes this type. Then Liu Yifei should be the one that suits your mother the most."

Chen Nuo came back to his senses from his bittersweet memories, glared at her and said, "Stop making fun of the boss and the employees."

Fan Binbing chuckled again and said, "Okay, I'll take her to enroll. You wait in the car."

After saying that, she waved to Choi Sulli, opened the door and got out of the car. Choi Sulli followed her like a possessed person, opened the door and got out with her.

Chen Nuo quickly shouted towards the car window, "You don't even know what grade she is in, you..."

Fan Binbing didn't even turn his head, but raised his hands and waved towards the sky.

Her pair of eight-centimeter white high heels stepped on the ground, matched with the black one-step skirt she was wearing today, and she actually exuded a cool and refreshing temperament.

Cui Xueli is still wearing jeans and a T-shirt jacket. Chen Nuo knows it is Pan Chengrong's work as soon as he sees the style. Apart from being expensive, there is really nothing good about it.

She looked back at him, and seemed to have just remembered that she should ask for his opinion.

But Chen Nuo didn't wait for her to speak, and said directly in Korean: "Go, follow her."

Cui Xueli nodded, then turned around in a panic and quickly followed Fan Binbing's pace.

Chen Nuo didn't know how Fan Binbing did it. He only waited in the car for about 30 minutes before he saw Fan Binbing, Cui Xueli, and several men and women coming down from the teaching building in front.

In front of the building, the two groups chatted for a while.

Fan Binbing had her back to him and no one knew what she said, but those teacher-like people all had smiles on their faces, and were as happy as if it were New Year's Day.

Afterwards, Fan Binbing waved goodbye to them and walked over here with Cui Xueli.

The teachers were still standing downstairs, motionless, staring at their backs.

After Fan Binbing opened the car door and got in, Chen Nuo couldn't help but ask, "It's done so quickly? You don't even know what grade she's in..."

Before he could finish his words, Fan Binbing threw a stamped form over and said calmly, "Take it back and fill it out yourself. Go with whoever you fall in love with."

……

Fan Binbing didn't even have lunch with Chen Nuo. She drove away directly after leaving the school gate.

She said she had an appointment with Harper's Bazaar at 2pm to shoot the magazine cover.

This was a common occurrence for her and nothing unusual, but this time it was a little different.

Because the theme of her photo shoot this time was personally chosen by the editor-in-chief of Bazaar after she won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress for the second time.
The caption on the cover reads: "Fan Binbing: I am also a legend."

The legend drove away with a smile on his face.

Because she did such a great job, the other legend couldn't find any reason to refuse, so he had no choice but to agree to go to the show with her in December.

Go and see how good the front row seats at Chanel are, what kind of spring scenery you can see, and why so many male and female celebrities are flocking to them. It looks better than Victoria's Secret.

But Fan Binbing is a person who speaks without any hesitation and says whatever he wants.

After getting in Linghu's car and on the way home to tell Pan Chengrong the good news, Chen Nuo asked in Korean with a bad face: "Shirley, what was your previous education?"

Cui Xueli looked at him cautiously and said, "Oppa, I didn't have it before. I went to a performing arts school... Can I stop studying? Can you help me tell my mother?"

From Choi Sulli's intermittent narration, Chen Nuo finally understood that she had started working at the age of 9 because her family was poor, and had been attending some performing arts academy to muddle through, just waiting to get a high school diploma so she could make her debut and make money.

Chen Nuo really had a headache after hearing this. He said with a gloomy face, "Then you should start from the first grade again."

"I'm telling you, no matter what happens in Korea, since you've come to China, you have to follow Chinese rules. Here, a 14-year-old like you has to study hard in school, even if you've won an Oscar."

Choi Sulli whispered, "What about you, Oppa?"

Haha, you are quite courageous. You still don’t accept the defeat, right?

Unfortunately, your question hit a wall, as it happens to touch upon my strong point.

Chen Nuo raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile: "Oppa, I am a senior this year, and I will graduate from college soon."

Seeing Choi Sulli's incredible look, Chen Nuo couldn't help but smile wider and wider, and finally laughed out loud, saying, "Oppa is not a fool like you, Oppa, I just gave up my studies to act."

"If I had really studied hard and pursued further studies...Xue Li, then you would know what a genius scientist is."

In Cui Xueli's shocked and admiring eyes, Chen Nuo stopped smiling and continued lightly: "But don't worry, I don't expect you to be a scientist, I just want you to learn more knowledge and learn these eight words. Come, read with me, this is Chinese..."

Choi Sulli's mouth shape was a bit exaggerated, and her accent was also strange, but her expression was very serious, and she actually read out the words in one breath: "Self-respect, self-love, self-reliance, self-reliance... Oppa, what do these words mean?"

"You have four years, two words a year, learn slowly."

……

……

Chen Nuo had really decided not to attend the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards.

In addition to the original reason, there is another very important reason, which is that when he went there last time, the Golden Horse Awards did not leave a good impression on him. It was very much like a makeshift troupe.

However, after he helped Choi Sulli get admission to an international school, he returned to the film academy in early September to pay for the last year of his four-year college career.

He found that the Golden Horse Awards seemed really determined to let him go this time.

Jiao Xiongping, the godmother of Taiwanese films and the current chairman of the Golden Horse Awards Executive Committee, actually wrote him a handwritten letter from Taiwan and asked someone to bring it to his company.

"My dear brother Chen Nuo,
Although I have only met you once, your reputation has long been known to me. I am more than 20 years older than you, so I am confident that you will not be offended if I call you "brother".

This is my last year before I step down as the chairman of the Golden Horse Awards. This Golden Horse Awards is my graduation ceremony. I naturally want to make it a grand event. But if you, my little brother Chen Nuo, don't come, it will be difficult for this event to be successful.

On behalf of the Golden Horse Awards Executive Committee, I would like to sincerely invite you to join us in witnessing the brilliant achievements of Chinese-language films over the past year.

For movies, for dreams, and for the career that you and I love.

On December 7, I and all the Golden Horse participants were in Taipei, ready to greet you with burning incense.

I would like to watch the Golden Horse Awards with you, talk about movies, and discuss the future with you.

Written in Taipei, August 29, by Jiao Xiongping.

Seeing the handwritten letter with soft and beautiful font that Qi Yuntian brought to him from the company, Chen Nuo couldn't help but be moved.

After thinking for a long time and discussing it with Qi Yuntian, he finally had to write a reply letter in person, writing:

"Sister Jiao, I am very grateful for your letter and warm invitation. We will meet in Taipei on December 12. Yours sincerely."

The Golden Horse Awards on December 12 may be a very important event for Jiao Xiongping and some filmmakers.

But since September 2008, what has happened in the United States has become particularly important events for the whole world.

On September 2008, 9, Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy, marking the biggest financial crisis in the United States since the Great Depression of 14.

The following trading days, September 9 and September 15, saw a massive plunge in market value in global stock markets, which was just the beginning of a further collapse.

美国标普500指数，从10月1日到10月10日下跌了22%，没有一天是上涨的。

By November 2008, 11, stocks on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq hit new lows, with a monthly decline of 20%.

Take Apple as an example. From its peak in 2008 to now, the decline is as high as 57%.

November 2008, 11, New York Hilton Hotel.

Chen Nuo stood in front of the French window, looking at the crowd of demonstrators outside. He saw that many of them, black and white, looked angry, holding up signs that said "Occupy Wall Street" and shouting all kinds of slogans to overthrow the imperialist capitalists. Unconsciously, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Qi Yuntian stood aside and said speechlessly: "You are still laughing? The US stock account you asked me to open before, and the Apple stock you bought, has now fallen by another 5%. We have lost another 100 million!"

There was no way. Chen Nuo was not a professional, and he didn't know when the lowest point was. At this moment, he couldn't help but ask: "What was the price when we entered the market?"

Qi Yuntian said: "11.91 US dollars."

Chen Nuo thought silently for a while, then nodded and said, "It doesn't matter. When the money for Twilight arrives, we'll buy it again at the end of December to replenish our inventory."

Qi Yuntian was surprised and asked, "You still want to buy? How many people in the world still buy stocks now? Chen Nuo, are you kidding me? Do you also want to go out on the street and hold up signs like those people downstairs?"

Chen Nuo sighed and said, "Apple stock at more than 11 dollars a share... Well, it's a bit expensive, but there's nothing I can do. I'll just treat it as charity. I'm used to using its phones. I hope I can do my best to keep it from going bankrupt."
