Nepotism

"I'm writing a new book today, I forgot the time, and I haven't cooked the meal yet." Ning Xuan was full of apologies.

Qi Lan smiled, with a tired face, "Go and do your work, I will get up and cook after lying down for a while."

Ning Xuan couldn't answer, otherwise this guy would be able to hold on now.

She turned around and entered the room. At this time, takeaway is still more reliable.

It was only time to call to order food, and when Ning Xuan came out of the studio, Qi Lan had already fallen asleep on the sofa.

Ning Xuan took a thin blanket and carefully covered Qi Lan.

She is currently writing a national drama, which is related to opera.

Speaking of which, Qi Lan is her source of inspiration.

She wanted to write about a person who valued opera as his life. In that war-torn era, he always kept his ideals in mind and kept going.

Ning Xuan drew up many names, but none of them were satisfactory.

Now looking at Qi Lan's sleeping cheek, Ning Xuan touched it lightly, and said to herself: "How about using the word Lan, which is the same as yours, Shanlan's Lan."

"Ning Xuan, your name is Ning Xuan, I know your name."

"My name is Qi Lan, neat Qi, Lan from Shanlan."

Ou Hong has not been idle recently, although he is a boss who does not work hard, but when it comes to Tianyi's various businesses, Ou Hong is very willing to take the lead.

After several social engagements recently, Ou Hong found that his chances of meeting Lin Fangyi increased rapidly.

During the ribbon cutting, film promotion, high-level receptions, and even temporary events, he could meet Lin Fangyi by chance.

Interesting, really interesting.

Lin Fangyi may not be very smart, but he is good at chatting.

It is very natural for the topic to gradually lead to Ning Xuan from work and entertainment.

For Ou Hong, the most regrettable thing about his elder brother is that he missed Ning Xuan's growth process. Also feel happy.

As for Lin Fangyi not being smart enough, it was because he drew too close to Ning Xuan.

Lin Fangyi knew that he was married to the Shen family's daughter, and he was a married man, so he portrayed himself as Ning Xuan's elder brother in the process of growing up. Originally, he thought that if he took care of Ning Xuan like this, he would get Ou Hong's love. Be a little grateful.

But in fact, he was wrong.

As a sister-in-law, in Ou Hong's eyes, Ning Xuan has and can only have an elder brother who is her own blood relative.

As for Lin Fangyi in Ou Hong's eyes...

Who are you, dare to play my role.

The so-called stealing chickens can't lose money, but that's it.

Lin Fangyi didn't know that Ou Hong had already added a lot of color to the disgust, and he was talking about it to others.

Ou Hong looked at the time, he should go back too.

Lin Fangyi's new topic has just begun.

"I heard that Tianyi has some ideas about the project of So Close to Tianya recently." Lin Fangyi said.

Ou Hong was about to turn around and leave, but when he heard Lin Fangyi's words, he paused.

So Close to the End of the World is also an ip drama adapted from a popular novel, but the theme is relatively new, and it is a rare ghost-hunting theme recently.

Ou Hong never thinks that profit-seeking is a shortcoming, as long as it is a project that he thinks can make money, he doesn't mind getting involved.Although I don't know where Lin Fangyi got the news, he is indeed interested in this project.

"Why, Mr. Lin is also interested in this?"

"It would be a great honor for me to be able to cooperate with Mr. Ou."

Ou Hong nodded.

See, the part about Xuanxuan mentioned earlier is just a foreshadowing, this person's real intention is here.

Without talking to Lin Fangyi any more, Ou Hong greeted Xu Jingjing and went straight back to Tianyi.

On the road, the driver drove in front, and the two sat side by side in the back.

"Tell me about the project that is close at hand." Ou Hong said.

Xu Jingjing was taken aback for a moment. She had made it clear before that she was not optimistic about it, so why did she ask again now.

But since the boss has spoken, her assistant can only follow orders.

"The novel So Far Away is phenomenal, but I'm not optimistic about the Grass Stage team."

"Be specific."

Xu Jingjing put down the document in her hand, and said seriously: "The director, screenwriter, and producer are all newcomers, and the only gimmick is just being associated with the Shen family. It is a novel, so they will probably invest some money, but the proportion is limited, after all, their current focus is on Tang."

"So you're not suggesting I test the waters?"

Xu Jingjing nodded, "It's not just you, it's better not to have artists under Tianyi."

"Oh, so serious?" Ou Hong was a little surprised.

"Do you remember what you asked me to look up last time?" Xu Jingjing took out some information from her pocket as she spoke.

"Look at it."

Ou Hong took it and took a closer look, and was also taken aback.

It was widely rumored in the entertainment industry that Lin Fangyi married the daughter of director Shen Xingguo, but under Xu Jingjing's investigation, the two were not father-daughter at all.

"Uncle?" Ou Hong asked with a smile.

Xu Jingjing explained: "Director Shen has three brothers and sisters. In addition to the two directors, they also have a younger brother who is not very successful. Lin Fangyi's wife is the daughter of this person."

Ou Hong shook the materials in his hands, "Shen Xingguo tolerates this person in the name of his daughter?"

Xu Jingjing said, "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. There is only one daughter in the younger generation of the Shen family. Director Shen Xingguo and his wife have not had children for so many years. Director Shen Xingmei even said that he has no plans to start a family, so the Shen family There's only one of them, smart and beautiful, so it's inevitable to prefer some."

Ou Hong took the material in his hand and looked at it carefully, "Everyone came here because of Director Shen's reputation. If you know that Miss Shen is not related to him as a father and daughter, I'm afraid it's... hum."

"That's why I said not only you don't want to get involved, but even the artists under Tianyi's banner should be avoided. If this matter is publicized one day, it will not be a good reputation after all."

Ou Hong nodded, without comment.

Xu Jingjing looked at it, and it looked like she hadn't given up yet.

"How about we take it down and do it ourselves?" Ou Hong said in surprise.

Xu Jingjing almost bit her own tongue, "Are you serious?"

"Directors, screenwriters, producers, investors, these are the reasons why you don't like it."

Xu Jingjing nodded.

"Then what if we replace all these people?" Ou Hong smiled.

Xu Jingjing gasped.

Ou Hong's ambition is really not small, if they replace all of them, then this project will be their own in the end, and all the main actors and actresses can be arranged by them at will.

Xu Jingjing looked at him suspiciously.

Such a large investment was spent on an unknown project. Now that the reputation of IP drama remakes is declining, it is hard to say what the result will be. Such a risky action is really not like Ou Hong's style.

"Couldn't you be..." Xu Jingjing didn't have the guts to say the words "fake public affairs and benefit private interests".

Her eyes flicked to the few pages of paper in Ou Hong's hand.

I'm afraid I can't get away from these people.

Ou Hong browsed the content related to Shen's family in front, and then swept back slightly, his expression became a lot more dignified,

Xu Jingjing knew what he saw.

It's related to Qi Lan.

Qi Lan and Lin Fangyi's wife, Shen Shiwei, have been friends since childhood.

Throw the things in your hand to the side lightly.

Ou Hong said: "Sure enough, people can't be judged by their appearance."

Xu Jingjing knew that Ou Hong might have misunderstood, so he put Qi Lan in the same camp as Lin Fangyi.

Is Qi Lan really such a person?

Xu Jingjing didn't have an answer.

The past few years when Shen Shiwei came to city b has been smooth.

Both the uncle and sister-in-law have no children, and she is the only junior in the Shen family.

Gradually, rumors spread that she was the uncle's illegitimate daughter. It was said that Mrs. Shen agreed to take her back to raise her when she grew up.

Although being rumored to be an illegitimate daughter will indeed receive a lot of unkind eyes, it is still better than an unknown little character. City B has brought her supreme glory, which makes her unwilling to think of the town she used to be girl.

In addition to her academic and career success, Shen Shiwei also met her marriage and love here.

The newlyweds, who were originally harmonious and beautiful, had some conflicts recently.

Lin Fangyi didn't seem to care about her as much as before,

There is less greeting and care, and less thoughtfulness.

Especially recently, he seems to be always busy and entertaining, and Shen Shiwei doesn't know if it's true or not.

Today is Lin Fangyi's birthday.

Shen Shiwei prepared a lot of things carefully, preparing to ease the relationship between the two of them.

But Lin Fangyi asked his assistant to go home to pick up the things, and told Shen Shiwei by the way that he would not be coming back for dinner today.

Shen Shiwei's face was as cold as ice.

The assistant tremblingly took the things and prepared to leave.

Shen Shiwei took a step forward and stopped in front of the assistant.

She held out her hand, "Give me something."

What Shen Shiwei wanted was the small box in the assistant's hand.

Lin Fangyi gave thousands of instructions, saying that Shen Shiwei should not see it.

But now...

The assistant was still hesitating, but Shen Shiwei couldn't help but say that he took the things.

Inside is a pair of stud earrings, in the shape of cherry blossoms, which are cute but not Shen Shiwei's style at all.

Obviously not for her.

After Shen Shiwei looked at it, she returned the things.

"Where has Mr. been recently, who have you met?" Shen Shiwei asked.

The assistant didn't dare to betray the news of his own artist like this, he hesitated to say anything.

"You have to think about who you really rely on for food."

As soon as the little assistant gritted his teeth, Lin Fangyi had to look at the face of the Shen family, how dare he offend this person in front of him.

"Mr. is not going to socialize recently, or to... Champs Elysees."

"Champs Elysees?" Shen Shiwei had never heard of this name before, "what kind of place is that?"

"It's a neighborhood."

"Then what about him today, where did he go?"

The little assistant didn't dare to say anything.

Shen Shiwei looked at the sumptuous meals she had prepared, and felt chills in her heart.

"Aren't you going to deliver something, let's go, don't be late."

After hearing Shen Shiwei's words, the little assistant hurried out the door, wishing she could grow a few more feet so that she could run faster.

When Shen Shiwei saw people going out, she also put on her clothes and went out.

Imposingly followed behind the other party.

The author has something to say: the sister-in-law is going to do something.
