Chapter 188 Chapter 184 The Best News
There are many restaurants in Chinatown. Lin Chu took Jane around and chose the one that looked the biggest. When he was about to enter the door, he turned his head and looked to one side.

A man in his 40s was squatting on the ground, wearing a white chef's uniform, holding a chef's hat tightly in his hand, with a lonely expression on his face.

"A Ding?" Lin Chu was startled.

The man turned his head to look, then got up, and said with a cautious face: "Mr. Lin, are you here for dinner?"

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Chu asked.

A Ding was the cook he hired, and he worked at his house for a few days. These two days, Lin Lixia felt that there was no need to hire a cook. She could cook, so Lin Qingxia asked A Ding to go back to the restaurant.

"Mr. Lin, the boss here is too bullying. Before, my husband invited me to cook at your house and signed a contract for ten days. I worked at your house for four days, but you paid enough for ten days.

According to the rules, I can get half of the money from the restaurant. Based on five hundred dollars a day, it should be five thousand dollars, but the boss only gave me two thousand dollars.

He said that I didn’t work in those six days, so I couldn’t settle the settlement. I reasoned with him, saying that it was reasonable, Mr. Lin didn’t have to give the hotel the money. He gave the money for my sake, so he must have I have one. "

A Ding said softly, Lin Chu patted his arm and smiled: "A Ding, why did you come to America?"

"It is said in the country that money is easy to make in the United States, and many celebrities have come here, so I thought of coming here to make some money. I am from the capital, and I sold the courtyard house over there, and came here with the money.

But the money here is really easy to make, [-] dollars a month, and I don’t care about food and housing. I can’t make so much money in China for ten years, but these people are too bullying. "

A Ding gritted his teeth, and Lin Chu nodded: "Your cooking skills are good. You can cook any cuisine. With such skills, you are afraid that you won't be able to eat? Why don't you follow me to Xiangjiang? I will open a restaurant and you will be the chef. Gives you 20.00% equity.

After a year, how can I earn 10,000+ Hong Kong dollars, at least I don’t have to be angry, and they are all my compatriots, what do you think? "

"Okay! Mr. Lin, I learned the craft from Mr. Cui Yiqing, a master of Lu cuisine in Beijing, and I learned Cantonese cuisine from Mr. Kang Hui, a master of Cantonese cuisine. Although I haven't made a name yet, I have been taught by the master, and I can be regarded as a master!

Mr. Lin, then I will go to Xiangjiang with you. I have had enough of being here these years. The boss is too stingy and often deducts wages. I don’t want to do it long ago! "

Lin Chu nodded, "Give me your passport, and I'll ask someone to buy you an air ticket. You and I will go back together on the 28th.

By the way, you will cook a few dishes in a while, and I will eat here. Don't tell the boss about this. Once you leave, I think it will be difficult for him to hire a chef again. "

"It's not easy. I'm just too straight, so I don't know how to say nice things. That's why I don't like people." A Ding responded, turned and entered the shop.

Jane moved to his side and said, "Boss, I didn't expect you to have a kind heart!"

"Stop praising me, I'm not a good person!" Lin Chu shook his head.

Jane smiled behind him, stuck out her tongue, with a playful side.

A Ding served six dishes, Jiuzhuan large intestine, roast squab, scallion fried lamb, twice-cooked pork, lobster and steamed grouper.

Jane had a great time eating, and she kept praising: "Boss, it's so delicious! Especially this fish, it's so tender. Is this the wisdom of the Chinese people?"

"You're right." Lin Chu shrugged.

After the meal, Lin Chu settled the bill. The meal cost one hundred dollars. He paid in cash, and A Ding gave him his passport when he came out to see him off.

He patted Ading's arm: "Clean up these two days and move to live with me directly, just wait and walk with me."

"Mr. Lin, thank you for helping me!" Ading said seriously.

Lin Chu smiled: "Actually, I'm afraid that I won't have a place to eat in the future, so you follow me, and I can just ask you for what I want to eat."

A-Ding laughed, sent him a long way, and stood there for a long time without turning around. He wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, and then he turned and left.

Back at Shuangmu Pictures, Lin Chu gave Jane a copy of the "Heart Sutra" before returning to the office.

After sitting down, he put the book on the table and flipped through the postcards. The stars printed on them were all women in cheongsams, and he couldn't help but smile.

He turned on the vinyl disc, put it on the player on one side, clicked on it, Zhou Xuan's voice sounded, the sound quality was not bad, there was a slight noise.

He decided to go back to Xiangjiang and let Wang Changshui repair it, so that the tape can be released.

The melody of "Night Shanghai" was simple and brisk. Lin Chu squinted his eyes and listened for a while, when there was a knock on the door, he responded and opened his eyes.

Jane walked in and said softly: "Boss, Mr. Liu Xishan and the seller are here."

"Please come in...you stay too." Lin Chu nodded.

Liu Xishan walked in, followed by two people beside him, a woman in her thirties, wearing a cheongsam, her black hair coiled, her figure soft and glamorous.

A young woman supported her. She was really beautiful. She was about 1.7 meters tall and weighed about 52 kilograms. She was very handsome. Lin Chu vaguely felt a little familiar, but couldn't remember who she was. He couldn't help but frowned. frowned.

"Mr. Lin, this is the seller. I brought all the things here." Liu Xishan put down a box.

Lin Chu nodded and said in Chinese: "Fifty thousand dollars, right? I'll write a check right away."

After writing a check, Lin Chu handed it to the middle-aged woman. She smiled and said in Mandarin: "Mr. Lin, you are the number one talented person in Hong Kong. I have read some of your reports. Are you from the mainland?"

"That's right, I'm from mainland China, specifically Shandong." Lin Chu nodded.

The middle-aged woman smiled: "I'm from Shanghai, and this is my daughter Phoebe Cates."

"Kates?" Lin Chu was startled, as if he had vaguely heard of this name somewhere.

The young woman glanced at him: "Mr. Lin knows me?"

"I don't know, this name sounds nice, and you are also very beautiful." Lin Chu shrugged, then looked at the middle-aged woman and said, "Ma'am, are you short of money?"

The middle-aged woman shook her head: "There is no shortage of money, but this set of books is useless in my house, so I entrusted Mr. Liu Xishan to sell them.

This is what I think, people who are willing to buy this set of books must be from China, I want this set of books to return to China, when our family brought the books to the United States, it was also for the purpose of protection.

Therefore, it is most suitable for Mr. Lin to bring these books back. In any case, my wish is over, and the price of [-] US dollars is also very reasonable. "

"Mr. Lin, the "Harry Potter" and "Jurassic" you wrote are so beautiful! I brought the book, can you sign it for me?" Cates smiled, with straight teeth.

Lin Chu took the books she handed over, which was a set of four "Harry Potter", and he signed them one by one.

Cates smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, my mother didn't let me come over, but I knew that Mr. Lin wanted to buy books, so I followed. I heard that you are still a director?"

"Recently, I made two movies here in Hollywood, and they will be released on the 24th. If you like it, you can go and watch it." Lin Chu shrugged.

Katz nodded: "Okay, I'll definitely go and have a look. A talented person like Mr. Lin must make a good movie. Talented people are dazzling no matter what they do."

"I've also heard a saying that the higher you hold, the harder you fall." Lin Chu smiled.

Katz laughed, and several people also laughed, and Katz's mother said softly: "Okay, Mr. Lin, then we will go back. If Mr. Lin needs it, we can keep in touch in the future.

Katz's father, Joseph, is a producer. He often plans some TV shows and has also done Oscar awards ceremony. He is good at running movies and should be of some help to you. "

While saying that she left a business card, Lin Chu took it and nodded, "Thank you very much!"

It was at this moment that he remembered who this sweet-looking girl was. She was the most popular sweetheart in the United States in the 80s. She had acted in many movies, but she quit at her peak.

Her father was Joseph Cates, the pioneer of American television programs and a very famous producer.

"Kates, if you want to act in the future, you can come to me, and you will definitely gain something." Lin Chu handed her two business cards.

Cates put it away, glanced at him, hooked the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Thank you!"

After sending the two out, Lin Chu turned around, and Jane accompanied them all the way out.

Before Liu Xishan left, he looked at Lin Chu and said, "Mr. Lin, if I follow you back to Xiangjiang, what kind of work do you think I can do?"

"Have you ever done a scene record, or been an assistant director?" Lin Chu looked at him.

He nodded: "I have been a scene recorder, I have also worked as a theater manager, and I have opened a restaurant."

"That's fine. You can follow me back and take notes on the spot, or you can be my personal butler. I need someone who can travel between the United States and Xiangjiang." Lin Chu said softly.

Liu Xishan nodded: "Okay, then I will go back with my husband. When I was a soldier, I was a famous sniper. I have good marksmanship and can protect my husband. Then I will go back and clean up. When are we going to leave?"

"Ten o'clock in the morning on September 9." Lin Chu nodded.

After Liu Xishan left, Lin Chu sat back on the chair, and couldn't help smiling when he thought of Katz again. This is really interesting. She should have been born in New York, but unexpectedly came to Los Angeles.

She used to dance ballet, so she was in excellent shape, he sighed and put away the business card.

Jane came back at this time, her hair was still draped behind her head, revealing her entire face, and the birthmark was obvious.

"Boss, are these books very precious?" Jane asked as she flipped through the books.

Lin Chu shook his head: "I don't understand this either, but it feels like it should be quite precious. After I go back, I'll have someone appraise it to determine the specific value. If it makes money, I'll sell it."

"Sold?" Jane was stunned, and then said with a strange expression: "Boss, didn't they sell it to you for your collection? I don't want such books to flow out of China again!"

Lin Chu smiled: "I didn't leave China after I sold it! Besides, she didn't give it to me for free, but sold it to me. It's not cheap, and I can sell it to make some money. "

"Boss, you are so realistic!" Jane pursed her lips.

Lin Chu shrugged: "You are right, I have never been a kind person, and the price of being a good person is a bit high."

"But although the boss is very ruthless, but deep down in his heart is very soft." Jane smiled.

Lin Chu shook his head: "I'm not as good as you said...Okay, I have to go home, I'll leave it to you here, Sister Tang comes to work tomorrow, I'll just come over and talk to her."

Seeing his leaving back and walking out with the box in his arms, Jane frowned.

In Beverly Hills, when Lin Chu came home, Lin Qingxia, Lin Lixia and Lin Chengsen hadn't returned yet.

He sorted it out and took the time to write the opening chapter of "Game of Thrones". The last episode of "Harry Potter" had to wait until he returned to Xiangjiang.

The phone rang, Lin Chu picked it up, and John's voice sounded: "Lin, Apple has made an appointment with Mr. Markkula and Mr. Woz. We will meet and talk at Beverly on the morning of the 26th?"

"No problem, it happens that there is a good coffee shop there." Lin Chu responded.

Putting down the phone, Lin Chu smiled, and let's talk about it after meeting. He doesn't have much confidence in the acquisition of Apple's equity, and the distance between him and [-] million US dollars is really far away.

The phone rang again, and when he picked it up, Yuan Tianfan's voice sounded: "Is Mr. Lin Chu at home?"

"Old Yuan, what's the matter?" Lin Chu responded.

Yuan Tianfan's voice was exhausted, but he was very happy: "Lin Sheng, the British side let go!"

"Release?" Lin Chu was startled, and then overjoyed: "Are they willing to sell?"

Yuan Tianfan responded: "That's right, they proposed a purchase price of 500 million yuan, and in my judgment, this is almost their psychological reserve price.

In the past, they still wanted to retain a part of the equity, so the price would be lower, but now they have sold all the equity, and the price must be raised. "

"Okay! I agree. You make an appointment with them and let them come to Xiangjiang as soon as possible. I can return to Xiangjiang on the 29th."

Lin Chu responded, and Yuan Tianfan laughed: "I'll contact them right away, they have to make preparations, and we also have to hire a team of lawyers.

Before that, let's get in touch with the lawyers of both parties. Lin Sheng can sign the contract when he comes back. Is Lin Sheng's money ready? "

"Ready!" Lin Chu responded.

Yuan Tianfan said seriously: "Okay, then I will wait for Lin Sheng to come back!"

Putting down the phone, Lin Chu jumped up and laughed loudly, very proud. For him, this is the best news. No matter how resolute he is usually, he still can't hide the joy in his heart.

The door of the study was pushed open, and Lin Qingxia walked in with a strange look on her face: "Husband, what's wrong?"

Lin Chu hugged her tightly, raising his brows with the vigor of a young man.

"Baby, I love you so much, you are really my lucky star!" Lin Chu said loudly, and kissed her passionately.

Lin Qingxia laughed, hugged his neck, and responded with a click of his tongue.

 Thanks for waiting for the new reward from Feiluoyedi.
