Turn over from love

Chapter 179 Kick him away, I'll take care of it

Ye Fangfei watched Lu Zhou and Qi Jiajia walk away together, and then saw Qi Jiajia lead Lu Zhou to find a man in the crowd, who looked to be in his 40s or [-]s.

Unfamiliar face, unknown, probably someone from Lu Zhou's business field.

Ye Fangfei discovered that besides playing music, Lu Zhou seems to be interested in other careers?

Recently, he gave her a feeling that he was working very hard to make a lot of money.

But there are some contradictions. If he is only because of lack of money, or has a huge desire for a luxurious life, it is common sense that he should be very active in writing and releasing songs, participating in artist activities and endorsement, but he doesn't seem to have it.

His behavior is unpredictable, such as... when he has not reached the ceiling in his field of expertise, he does some career planning that has nothing to do with his major.

To say that Lu Zhou's pursuit of art is not pure enough, and he is simply chasing money, it looks like this on the surface, but it doesn't feel like it when you look closely.

A very strange person.

Yes, Ye Fangfei found out the feeling in her heart.

The feeling Lu Zhou gave her was that it was indescribably strange, but also had a huge attraction to her.

And Ye Fangfei's own attitude towards her career is different from Lu Zhou's. She mainly focuses on the fields she is interested in.

In other respects, if it is purely for making more money, she will find it boring.

Maybe Lu Zhou's ambition is not only in music, men usually have a lot more careerism.

Like her father and elder brother, they are all very career-minded people.

Everyone's pursuit of life is different, and she will not reject anything because of this.

Ye Fangfei lazily withdrew her gaze and stopped chasing Lu Zhou's figure.

At this time, Lu Zhou was communicating with Luo Feng, the founder of Luming Culture. Qi Jiajia didn't want to disturb her, so she left on her own.

Luming Culture is an online literature company acquired and integrated by Lu Zhou before.

Qi Jiajia's Darth Global opened, why did Luming Culture's Luo Feng come?Because the two will be closely integrated in overseas business in the future.

Moreover, both of them have the same invisible boss, that is Lu Zhou.

"I thought you didn't have time to come today." Luo Feng saw Lu Zhou, patted his arm with a smile and said, "I'm ready to go."

"Is it important?" Lu Zhou asked.

The two walked to a corner where no one was disturbed while talking.

"It's not very important, but Jiajia's ceremony is over, I just have something to do and I plan to leave first. Do you have other arrangements?" Luo Feng looked at Lu Zhou suspiciously.

"I have an investment to discuss. If it succeeds, Luming Culture can also share a piece of the cake. I want you to show your face and say a few words." Lu Zhou glanced at Zhang Chen and Ye Fangfei, and said, "If you are interested It's very important and I won't keep you."

"Then I'll push the one over there." Hearing Lu Zhou's words, Luo Feng made a quick decision. He glanced at the direction Lu Zhou was looking at and asked, "What do I need to say later?"

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Blowing water, yes?"

The corners of Luo Feng's mouth curled up, "Must. To be a boss, isn't this a must-have skill?"

Lu Zhou smiled, "I know you can brag, but don't brag too much when the time comes, just express the confidence of the team."

Luo Feng nodded, "OK."

"Is the screenwriter you recruited done before?" Lu Zhou asked.

"It's done, but I still think it's really a good thing for the company at this stage to pay a lot of money to invite Li Wen to sit in charge?"

With his hands in his pockets, Luo Feng still didn't understand why Lu Zhou appointed Li Wen as the screenwriter.

"The temple is small, and if we enshrine such a large Buddha, I'm afraid that if we don't make a famous hall, we will have to suffer a lot."

Lu Zhou didn't respond to Luo Feng's annoyance, and only said: "When I'm going to make money for investors, I'll emphasize Li Wen."

Luo Feng was stunned for a moment and understood.

After meeting with Luo Feng briefly, Lu Zhou took him to meet Zhang Chen and Ye Fangfei.

Before the four of them made an appointment to enter the meeting room, Lu Zhou had a private chat with Ye Fangfei for a while, and the two entered Qi Jiajia's office and closed the door.

Zhang Chen secretly observed, thinking: What are you talking about?Do you want to close the door and talk alone?
Qi Jiajia silently glanced at Zhang Chen, and saw that he didn't seem to have any special reaction.So, Zhang Chen's deep affection for Ye Fangfei in the show before, was it an act?

Knowing that Lu Zhou was going to discuss serious matters with Zhang Chen, Ye Fangfei, and Luo Feng, Qi Jiajia took the initiative to take Chu Yao out of their sight.

in the office.

Ye Fangfei came in without taking a seat, looked at the interior layout, then walked to the open window, and took a few glances outside.

Lu Zhou stood a few steps behind her and watched her quietly for a while.

In fact, when he first arrived, when he greeted her, he faintly sensed that something was wrong with her.

He used to be too familiar with her, her small eyes when she was upset, the small movements of her eyebrows, the strange words she replied, the subtle changes in her tone...all suggested that she was not in the right mood.

So, why was she suddenly angry with him?

Because of Zhang Chen?Or because of who said what?
Lu Zhou didn't know why.

Ye Fangfei is actually very good at hiding her thoughts. If Lu Zhou hadn't known her very well, he wouldn't be able to perceive her unhappy mood today.

"You feel a little unhappy."

Lu Zhou spoke in a low voice behind Ye Fangfei.

Ye Fangfei heard the sound, withdrew her gaze from the window, and turned to face him.

"Is there?" She raised her eyebrows lightly, her tone was puzzled, and she did not admit it.

She was a little surprised in her heart, she thought she hid her emotions well, but she didn't expect Lu Zhou to notice it.

However, he has always been careful, and this is also his advantage that makes people easy to fall for, right?
"It's fine if you don't have one." Lu Zhou didn't ask her the reason for her unhappiness, after all, she didn't mean to say it, and the question was fruitless.

"I called you here today, and I want to talk to you about investment. I told you before that I lack a lot of money..." He introduced the topic with a smile, "There is a project I want to see if you are interested."

Ye Fangfei left the window, walked to the chair and sat down, and said, "It depends on the project."

"I want to make a movie, and the estimated cost is a bit high. I talked to Zhang Chen about investment before, but he is still waiting and watching."

Lu Zhou explained the matter clearly in advance, so that she will not be confused when the four parties meet and communicate later.

When Ye Fangfei heard this, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, "You want to make a movie?"

Lu Zhou nodded.

Ye Fangfei frowned lightly, "Do you know movies?"

After thinking about it, she felt something was wrong. Before he could reply, she asked again: "Are you going to act? Or direct? Or..."

Lu Zhou felt her strong puzzlement, and interrupted her with a smile.

"I don't act, I'm not an actor. If I come to act, the box office will be smashed. I will leave the professional work to professional people. I just have a good movie idea and want to make it."

Ye Fangfei looked at him with a puzzled expression on her face.

"Lu Zhou, is your game a bit complicated?"

"I do have a lot of interests."

"It's not a problem to have more interests, but I feel that it will be better if you take it step by step? Develop all interests at the same time. If you don't grasp it well, disasters may occur, such as Wu Jing..."

Ye Fangfei gave an extreme example.

The corners of Lu Zhou's mouth trembled slightly, "Fang Fei, don't compare me to Wu Jing, it's not the same situation at all. He is not interested at all, and he was not even drawn into the entertainment circle from the beginning because of interest, but because It's just money."

Ye Fangfei knew that the example she gave was exaggerated, a trace of apology flashed across her face.

"Then you don't want to make money by making movies? Just because of interest?" She subconsciously asked.

"Well, I'm really not looking for money." Lu Zhou said.

It's true, he didn't make this movie to make money for himself.

"If this movie can really be made, it needs to be well invested, which requires a lot of money. As I told you, I lack a lot of money. If the movie is successful, it will be the big investor who makes the money in the end. The big profit is not mine, is it? ?”

He smiled and said.

Ye Fangfei: "It takes a lot of energy to make a good movie. You have no experience. Are you sure you will persevere and do your best to make the idea you want to do well?"

"I will." Lu Zhou said with firm eyes.

Ye Fangfei showed concern and asked, "Will you give up music because of this?"

"Of course not. Music is something I will never give up in my life." Lu Zhou's tone was affirmative.

"How do you balance both?"

"Rationally operate the team. As I just said, professional things are left to professional people, so I need capital."

After hearing what he said, Ye Fangfei was silent for a moment, and then she asked, "How much do you need?"

Lu Zhou's Adam's apple rolled up and down. He knew that at this stage, he had almost convinced her.

She didn't even ask him what kind of movie he was going to make or what kind of team he had. If she chose to invest in him, she only needed to figure out one thing: whether he has full determination, whether he has a 100% firm attitude.

This may be the charm of emotion.

She may have voted for feelings, not... projects.

"I want to ask, would you mind investing in this project with Zhang Chen?"

Lu Zhou didn't answer her question, but asked another question instead.

Ye Fangfei: "Didn't you just say that he is still watching?"

"Yes, he must first determine the details of the project, analyze the feasibility, and then decide whether to invest."

"Are you confident that you can convince him?"

"some."

"How much do you want him to vote?" Ye Fangfei continued to return to this question.

Lu Zhou: "Two hundred million."

Ye Fangfei raised her eyebrows. She leaned back on the chair and raised her legs, "It's a big production."

Lu Zhou pursed his lips and smiled, "I told you, I'm short of a lot of money. If it's a small matter, I won't look for you."

Ye Fangfei pondered for a moment, then asked curiously: "Then how much did you originally plan for me to vote?"

Lu Zhou cleared his voice, looked a little uncomfortable, and said, "One hundred million."

Ye Fangfei smiled.

"Give me a strict market analysis report and a detailed project plan. If the evaluation is passed, I will fully invest [-] million yuan. There is no need for Zhang Chen to get involved."

Her red lips parted slightly, and she made a decision.

Lu Zhou was silent for a moment before speaking: "So you mind working with Zhang Chen?"

"I don't mind Zhang Chen. In fact, the relationship between me and him has always been a normal friend, or not even a friend. The ex is just a name, in name only."

Ye Fangfei stared at him without blinking, her serious tone seemed to explain the facts clearly and avoid his misunderstanding.

"I just think, if I plan to invest in you, then I can pay all the money, saving you the trouble of convincing him to pay, isn't that good?"

When she finished speaking, there was a slight smile in her eyes.

Is it not good?
If it's just to make some money, it's fine.

But Lu Zhou did this for Zhang Chen's purpose, making money was just incidental.

So, not good.

"This is a huge amount of money. You bet all by yourself, aren't you afraid of losing money?" Lu Zhou hinted.

"Investment is risky, and profit and loss are normal. I'm not blindly investing in you. I just said that I will invest in you if the project can pass the evaluation. If you can really get the funds, it means that your project itself has This market potential, even if the final result is not ideal, it is just a normal investment failure.”

Ye Fangfei replied.

She didn't have Zhang Chen's fear of failure.

Lu Zhou considered for a moment, smiled slightly, and said:

"But if this project has been evaluated on your side, then I think there should be no problem on Zhang Chen's side."

"And Zhang Chen is the first investor I found. We are friends with each other. We should pay attention to first-come-first-served. I can't just kick someone out just because he wants to take care of everything. What do you think?"

After hearing what Lu Zhou said, Ye Fangfei was stunned for a while, "I found out..."

In the middle of speaking, she paused for a while, as if she hesitated.

"You really don't seem to mind Zhang Chen's identity?"

She finally asked the exit.

The moment she asked the question, she actually already had the answer.

He asked her earlier if she would mind working with Zhang Chen, and she said no, she was sincere.But she was wondering if Lu Zhou would put down his mind and go to him for cooperation even though he cared about Zhang Chen because of lack of money.

She didn't want him to be so humble, so she wanted to round up the three hundred million yuan and save him trouble.

But now... Lu Zhou's answer made Ye Fangfei suddenly understand, he didn't care about Zhang Chen's identity as her ex-boyfriend, he really regarded Zhang Chen as a friend...

Realizing this, Ye Fangfei felt a faint discomfort in her heart.

why?

Why doesn't he mind Zhang Chen's identity?

It seems that generally people would mind, right?If he really had the slightest thought about her in that way... would he mind?Right?

He doesn't mind, does that mean he really doesn't think of her more than a friend?

This is a sad conclusion.

Ye Fangfei felt a little upset.

But she thought that she had just emphasized to him that she and Zhang Chen were not even friends, and she was wondering why he didn't mind Zhang Chen. Ye Fangfei felt that she was too contradictory.

The whole person has become super awkward, this is Ye Fangfei's evaluation of herself after she found out that she has a crush on Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou could vaguely figure out Ye Fangfei's state of mind when she asked this question.

"I'm fine." He replied to her questioning and said frankly, "I'm mainly worried that you mind."

Ye Fangfei understood, concealed the boredom in her heart, pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and said, "In that case, let's take a look at your project with Zhang Chen."

Lu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Fang Fei, you are really the most generous woman I have ever seen."

Ye Fangfei raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "It sounds like you have seen countless girls."

Lu Zhou: "...This is a big misunderstanding."

Ye Fangfei felt a little better, looked him in the eyes, and said, "I heard from Zhang Chen that you went to Xu Junze's opening ceremony first in the morning. Could it be that his company has you as well?"

Lu Zhou paused slightly. His first reaction was how did Zhang Chen know?Thinking about it later, oh, Wen Yiming was there at the time... then I understand.

In front of Ye Fangfei, Lu Zhou did not intend to hide from her.

"It does," he said.

Ye Fangfei: "..."

"So it's your plan to open on the same day as Jiajia's company?" she asked.

"No, they picked the same day when they asked someone to watch it." He replied.

"What a coincidence?"

"What a coincidence."

"Then Jiayan went to Junze's opening ceremony, and Zhang Chen came to Jiajia's opening ceremony, are these two things also a coincidence?" Ye Fangfei raised her eyebrows and asked.

Lu Zhou: "..." She knows...

No wonder he felt that she had a little emotion, and he kept wondering why. It turned out that the real reason was here.

Seeing that he was silent, Ye Fangfei couldn't help but thump in her heart.

At this time, Lu Zhou said, "Zhang Chen is indeed a coincidence. I didn't know he came here today."

"Jiayan..." He paused for a while before saying, "It's not a coincidence."

He didn't lie.

He just knew that Li Jiayan would go today, so he went.

Ye Fangfei nodded without any change, and there was even a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Why didn't you bring them here with you? There are so many people today, it just so happens that everyone can get together."

When she said this, her tone was calm, and she couldn't hear anything unusual.

If Lu Zhou hadn't been familiar with the calm before she got angry, he wouldn't have noticed that she was angry.

"This...is not appropriate," he said.

"Oh. That's right, it's really inappropriate."

Ye Fangfei raised her eyebrows, got up and stroked the creases on her clothes, and was about to leave the office.

"Lu Zhou, I really don't understand your career map."

Before leaving, she left a sentence.

Lu Zhou sat where he was, smiled softly, and said, "You will understand later."

……

Lu Zhou and Ye Fangfei chatted privately from the office, and Zhang Chen looked at them with a strange look.

Lu Zhou patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be too flirtatious."

Zhang Chen raised his eyebrows, "You know me flirty again?"

"Your expression betrays you."

"Ah."

In the end, Lu Zhou, Zhang Chen, Ye Fangfei, and Luo Feng borrowed the conference room of Qi Jiajia's new company and started a project financing meeting.

Lu Zhou and Luo Feng cooperated throughout the whole process, trying their best to draw a big cake for the two potential investors.

After listening to Zhang Chen, he was eager to try, but finally threw out a sentence: "Has the script been written yet?"

"The script can't be written in a short period of time. If this stuff is to be of high quality, the screenwriter must grind it hard."

Luo Feng took the initiative to answer without waiting for Lu Zhou to speak.

"However, don't worry, the script of our film this time will be written by Li Wen, a well-known screenwriter in the industry. Have you heard of Li Wen? Maybe you don't know, but if you talk about the films he has participated in before, you must be sure." You know, he wrote..."

Luo Feng started bragging mode.

Zhang Chen was stupefied for a moment.

In the end, Zhang Chen looked at Ye Fangfei, "You are familiar with the entertainment industry, what do you think? Vote?"

Ye Fangfei said leisurely: "I have intentions, and when the final market analysis report and film proposal come out, if there is no problem, I can vote."

Zhang Chen knew it in his heart.

After the meeting of the four of them, Luo Feng left on his own, while Lu Zhou, Ye Fangfei, Zhang Chen and others made an appointment to have dinner together.

This is "Swap?After the "Predecessor" program ended, the guests organized their own reunion for the first time.
