Fooling Huayu for Thirty Years

Chapter 694 Yu Qizhi Ling

Chapter 694 Yu Qizhi Ling
"We can't tell yet."

Actually, I'm not in a big hurry.

"But I will definitely try my best."

"Thank you."

Why say thank you?

"Alright then, next time we meet I'll definitely make you scream like a baby."

"Hehe...that's more like it."

After hanging up the phone, probably no one would have guessed that the person Ma Xun was talking to was Jing Tian.

She looks sweet now, and although she has a somewhat aloof air, almost no one would think that she is still so flirtatious.

Of course, this isn't a point of contention for Ma Xun; he likes banning things.

The madness will eventually end, and Ma Xun can't stay in the United States forever.

Of course, this isn't because his kidneys are no longer strong; they're still very capable and can still hold up.

The main reason is that the four beauties can't always be so clingy with him, especially since "Inception" didn't win many awards, but it still gained a lot of fame.

It's worth noting that Avatar didn't win either of those major awards, nor did it win any acting awards or script awards.

So, if we really have to compare them, Avatar loses to Inception!

This is just based on the results of this year's Oscars... James Cameron is indeed in a rather awkward position.

And in this way, our "Inception" is indeed even more amazing, and its commercial value has been further enhanced.

In fact, film festivals or film awards originally had this function: to increase the commercial value of a film.

Anyone who has ever bought or rented an original movie DVD knows that the cover will have the logos of the film festival and awards.

If a film wins an award, it gets printed on the website. Even if it doesn't win an award, just being shortlisted still gets a lot of films printed on the website.

This is what later became known as the trendy term 'business empowerment'.

With the commercial value of "Inception" further increasing, Scarlett Johansson and Yan Danchen will definitely be even busier.

A well-known international luxury brand simply signed both of them and created a dream-themed project.

This guy has taken care of both the European and American markets and the Asian market.

They certainly have a good business sense.

In that case, the two of them will have to go and do business. The four beauties will be two fewer. Although Bingbing and Anne Hathaway have known each other for a long time, they are not very familiar with each other.

It's fine for everyone to have fun together for a while, but if it's always like this... forget it.

And so, Ma Xun's wild nightlife came to an end.

Bingbing has other business to attend to in the United States; a film crew there has contacted her.

Ma Xun should go back to China first.

Before I even got back, Jing Tian called.

I never expected her to care so much.

That's certainly good, and Ma Xun has demonstrated sufficient strength.

As for what Wanda will choose next... Ma Xun is confident, but he has also taken precautions.

That is, if Wanda still doesn't cooperate with him and chooses someone else, Ma Xun must also have other preparations.

Honestly, from a business perspective, if Wanda doesn't cooperate, then Ma Xun's only option is to choose between Alibaba's Taobao system and Tencent.

Fortunately, he has shares in Tencent and also has connections with music software companies.

These are all great.

Taobao is much worse, and in some respects, Taobao is actually its rival.

After all, Taobao will handle Tudou and then merge it with Youku.

It's important to know that this is what later became known as streaming media, and Ma Xun's DiliDili was also a streaming media platform.

We're rivals; it's either you eat me or I eat you.

Therefore, this matter is somewhat difficult to handle.

However, it seems that Wanda is not Ma Xun's only option.

From the perspective of the real economy, cinema chains are simply the best choice.

With that in mind, Ma Xun was no longer in a hurry.

He was joking with Jing Tian, but he was actually telling her not to worry.

Some things, if pushed too hard, are not a good thing. As the saying goes, "You can't make a deal if you're too eager." Although this saying is vulgar, there is some truth to it.

So, Ma Xun returned to China first, and he planned to take a vacation.

But just as he arrived at the Los Angeles airport, he received another phone call.

Congratulations!

You don't sound very happy.

"He's getting married."

"Oh, what do you mean?"

How did you figure out who he was so quickly?

"Haha...Have you forgotten the Four Young Masters of Beijing?"

"Oh, by the way, you guys are in cahoots."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not with him. Besides, I did receive an invitation, but I was too busy and wasn't planning on going."

"You... hum!"

"Hehe...you want to go?"

"Who said that!"

"Don't be so stubborn."

This phone call was really strange; most people wouldn't understand it, but if you knew who was calling, it would make sense.

Zhang Yuqi.

And the "he" who got married is, of course, Wang Xiaofei, and the person he married is none other than Barbie Hsu (Da S).

However, things have probably changed somewhat.

Ma Xun remembers that in the original timeline, Wang and Barbie Hsu seemed to have gotten married this year, but the timeline was probably not around this time.

But if they plan to get married at this time, it's not a big deal.

As for why Zhang Yuqi called, Ma Xun didn't need to ask at all. It was very simple: this woman definitely didn't have an invitation.

It seems that in the original timeline, Zhang Yuqi didn't attend the wedding either. Well, that makes sense; it would have been too awkward if he had.

But this time... hehe, the changes are quite significant.

Of course, Wang Xiaofei had to send Ma Xun an invitation, and it wasn't because of the title of one of the Four Young Masters of Beijing.

The person who actually sent the invitation to Ma Xun was his mother, Zhang Lan.

This woman is at least quite courageous, much braver than her son. As for all the trivial matters that followed, this family certainly knows how to generate buzz.

Let's not talk about those things now.

Zhang Lan knew very well that if Ma Xun could attend her son's wedding, her son and even her family's social standing would rise significantly. Ma Xun was a prominent figure now.

In addition, Zhang Lan did have a reason to send the invitation, and that reason was 'thank you'. That is to say, Ma Xun had casually mentioned 'boiled cabbage in clear broth' to Wang Xiaofei before.

Hey! They actually made it into the menu, and the price is actually quite high.

Of course, this dish is really not cheap. The process of making it, and the crystal-clear, slightly golden broth that comes out, is truly very difficult.

But no matter what, people nowadays just like to show off, even their food has to be pretentious enough... well, call it a sense of ritual.

Boiled cabbage in clear broth perfectly fits this need for 'showing off'. Look, it's just a simple cabbage, but do you know how much it costs?
Anyway, South Beauty really made money with this dish, and more importantly, it also successfully generated a lot of traffic.

His fame has grown even greater.

Of course, we should thank Ma Xun properly.

Ma Xun wasn't particularly interested in the wedding, but now this Zhang Yuqi...

"If you could take me there..."

"You didn't keep your word before, but of course I didn't hold it against you."

Ma Xun laughed after hearing this. Actually, it wasn't a big deal for him to go to a wedding and attend a banquet.

……

It was already quite hot in Sanya at the end of March.

Wang and Barbie Hsu's wedding was held at the Conrad Hotel in Haitang Bay.

This hotel is considered a high-end brand, positioned as a super 5-star hotel. It is Hilton's high-end brand, and the name comes from the founder of Hilton.

The hotel's decor had a distinctly old-money European feel. When Ma Xun entered, a waiter naturally came to greet him, but upon seeing his invitation, the waiter immediately went to find the manager, after all, Ma Xun was a big shot.

When the manager arrived and saw Zhang Yuqi next to Ma Xun, his expression immediately became very strange.

"Mr. Ma, your female companion..."

"Can't I bring someone with me?"

"Of course, but regarding this room..."

Clearly, this is indeed a problem.

It's fine that Ma Xun brought Zhang Yuqi along, but if you two were to live together...

At this moment, Ma Xun was anxious to reply, so he looked at Zhang Yuqi.

"I..." she said, looking like she was ready to go all out.

Ma Xun interrupted her, "Of course we should book another room for Miss Zhang."

This made Zhang Yuqi even more grateful to Ma Xun.

Although there's no problem with them coming together, and even if others find out, it's not a big deal. However, if they were to share a room, even a suite, that would be a 'serious' situation.

In China, cohabitation is still taken quite seriously.

If you two were to share a room, what would it be like normally?
And are you really boyfriend and girlfriend?

This time, Ma Xun was kissed a lot by Scarlett Johansson at the Oscars.

Are you Zhang Yuqi and Ma Xun considered boyfriend and girlfriend?
Therefore, Ma Xun's action can be seen as giving Zhang Yuqi dignity.

And so, the manager went to take care of his business.

Soon after, the room was ready, and Ma Xun checked in, put down his simple luggage, and then went to the window.

His room has a very good view, which is of course what he chose.

This Conrad hotel isn't one of those tall buildings; although it has a main building, it consists mostly of individual villas. And this particular villa is an ocean view room, offering a perfect view of the sea.

Haitang Bay is located in the eastern part of Sanya, and its development started later than that of Sanya Bay and Yalong Bay.

We all know Sanya Bay, the one with the Tianya Haijiao rock formation, while Yalong Bay is the one featured in the movie "If You Are the One".

The reason why Haitang Bay was developed late is actually because the sea breeze here is relatively strong.

Simply put, going into the sea is extremely dangerous. If you insist on going in... there are helicopters flying back and forth in the sky to monitor and prevent people from going into the sea.

But it's a great spot for taking photos. Looking out the window now, you can see Wang and Barbie Hsu posing for pictures.

Ma Xun remembered that the hotel later became quite famous because of this wedding, and many couples chose to get married there. But now he was concerned that someone had gone to find Wang Xiaofei.

Then she whispered a few words in his ear.

It seems that Young Master Wang already knows about his and Zhang Yuqi's arrival.

Yes, very good.

Ma Xun's visit this time was certainly not just because Zhang Yuqi had made a huge bet.

He remembered that there seemed to be some special people at the wedding, and these people...

Suddenly, there was a knock on his door.

Who?
Of course, it's very safe here, after all, it's a top-tier hotel, so I simply opened the door, and then...

"Boss~"

"Ah? Why are you here?"

Zhiling was standing outside the door, and she immediately threw herself into Ma Xun's arms.

"You haven't come to see me for so long, have you forgotten about me?"

Wow! That's really something!

Her coquettish manner was enough to drive anyone crazy, and now she was speaking so softly, as if she wanted to pour out all her grievances to Ma Xun.

Ma Xun could no longer resist, so he simply lifted Zhi Ling's chin and kissed her.

The two lingered together for a long time.

Even after they parted, Zhiling's eyes were filled with spring-like longing.

But Ma Xun still wanted to ask.

"How did you come?"

This was a very standard question, but Zhiling gave Ma Xun a special answer.

“Many people came, such as An Jia’s sister and Wu Peici…”

Zhiling's tone changes when she mentions this name.

Yes, because some people say that Wu Pei-Tzu is her successor.

However, Ma Xun smiled.

Because Wu Peici's future husband is quite a figure.

Never mind, let's enjoy this beauty first.
