"Okay, I understand."
Zhou Chen hung up the phone, his face gloomy.
The person who just called him was from the prison, saying that his cheap father Zhou Guodong was seriously ill and was going to die soon, and he wanted to see him before he died.
Zhou Chen's first reaction was to refuse, but after hesitating for a few seconds, he finally decided to see Zhou Guodong and treat it as a settlement.
Zhou Chen came to the prison infirmary and saw Zhou Guodong.
At this time, Zhou Guodong was haggard, looked haggard, and skinny. He looked very scary. He had undergone earth-shaking changes from the last time Zhou Chen saw him.
In total, Zhou Guodong has been in prison for nearly three years. In a short period of time, he has become like this. It seems that he will not live for a few days.
"You came."
When Zhou Guodong saw Zhou Chen, a light flashed through his cloudy eyes, and he seemed to become a little more energetic.
"Um."
Zhou Chen responded with an indifferent expression.
Although Zhou Guodong looks very pitiful now, he really is not pitiable at all.
poor person must have something mean!
There are so many hateful things about Zhou Guodong that a simple scumbag can no longer describe him. He is not qualified to be a husband or a father, and he is not even a good person.
No matter how pitiful such a person is, Zhou Chen will not be the least bit soft-hearted.
"We probably have nothing to do with each other anymore. What do you want from me?"
Zhou Guodong said weakly: "Whether you admit it or not, I am your father. This cannot be changed."
"It's just that I never thought that the person who destroyed me in the end would be you. But now I don't feel angry at all, but I am very happy. The better you are, the more successful I am, because you are the one I brought to this world.
Yes, haha."
Zhou Chen's expression remained unchanged. This was all nonsense and he wouldn't take it to heart at all.
"In a father-son relationship, I have only one request. I hope you can agree."
Zhou Chen still didn't speak, but looked at him with cold eyes. He didn't believe that someone who was about to die could speak well.
For a person like Zhou Guodong, who was already so evil when he was alive, do you really expect him to wake up when he is about to die? That is just self-deception.
"I hope that after I die, you can bury me and your mother together. She is the person I owe the most in my life, so I want to make up for her and accompany her after my death."
"You are really dreaming, it's impossible."
Zhou Chen refused without mercy, "The person my mother doesn't want to see the most in her life is you. If you want to make up for her, stay away from her and never get close to her."
Zhou Guodong said in a hurried tone: "Your mother and I have been married for more than ten years, you, you can't do this."
Zhou Chen ignored him, just raised his hand and glanced at his watch, and said lightly: "Sorry, I have a meeting later, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, he ignored Zhou Guodong's call and walked out. He stopped when he reached the door.
"You are right about one thing. No matter what, we have a father-son relationship. Don't worry, after you leave, I will arrange your funeral affairs and keep you far away from my mother. You will never have a chance.
goodbye."
After leaving the prison, Zhou Chen sat in the car and sneered as he recalled the scene that had just happened.
"Let's go back to Chenying Entertainment."
"Okay, boss."
The reason why I went to Chenying Entertainment again today is because today a king superstar is joining Chenying. Chenying spent a huge price to invite him. He is a three-dimensional star of film, television, singing and a real king-level figure.
For such a heavyweight king to join, of course the boss Zhou Chen must show up to sign the contract in person to show respect.
The signing ceremony was very grand, with media from all parties invited to attend, and it ended with the moment when Zhou Chen and Liu Tianwang shook hands and hugged each other.
Nannan's first birthday party was held in a five-star hotel. Zhou Chen did not invite too many people. He only invited some friends who were close to him or friends with whom he had cooperative relationships. The rest were all Qiao Yingzi.
Their relatives over there.
But even so, there were more than thirty tables set up, and the scene was very grand.
The friends who can come here are basically celebrities. The red envelopes and gifts given by these people are of great value. The gifts alone are probably enough to buy several houses in Yanjing.
The grand first-year anniversary banquet lasted for several hours, and Zhou Chen, as the protagonist, was so toasted that he became numb.
For him, this kind of banquet is more tiring than going to work, but he has to do it because it is an opportunity to accumulate contacts. If he wants to make his career bigger and stronger, there are some things that he can only do even if he doesn't like it.
You can grit your teeth and do it.
After the birthday party, Qiao Yingzi started working again, still at the Astronomical Research Institute where Zhou Chen invested.
Because of Zhou Chen, the wealthy boss behind the scenes, the institute is developing very well. Even if it is burning money every day, Zhou Chen is still happy to continue supporting each other.
Not only because Qiao Yingzi likes it, he is also very interested in it and often goes there to take a look.
Zhou Chen knows that he can live for countless years in the future, so he needs to use some interests to kill time. This is true for starting a business, and the same is true for studying astronomy and running a research institute.
Qiao Yingzi's love for astronomy far exceeds that of Zhou Chen. When she enters work mode, she becomes even more crazy. She often forgets to eat and sleep because of work.
Even though Zhou Chen tried to persuade her many times, the effect was not very good, so every time he could only let Nannan pass to interrupt Qiao Yingzi's working state.
"Hey, Wang Yidi, what's the matter?"
"Boss Zhou, I heard that the company is preparing to prepare a big-budget movie recently, and the heroine hasn't been decided yet?"
Zhou Chen heard Wang Yidi's words and immediately understood what she meant, so he asked: "Are you interested?"
"Of course I'm interested. There's probably no actress in the industry who isn't interested in a big production worth more than 300 million yuan. Boss Zhou, we've known each other for more than ten years, and I took the initiative to join you. Shouldn't you be more interested?"
Take care of me?"
On the other end of the phone, Wang Yidi seemed a little nervous. It had been a few months since she joined Chenying Entertainment, and she had already found out clearly that the next movie would be the largest investment in Chenying Entertainment since its establishment.
The investment of more than 300 million is a real investment, not a false report, and this is only a preliminary plan, and it is very likely that it will be more than that when filming.
Such a huge production is definitely the top one in China. I don’t know how many people are trying to get into it.
Wang Yidi knew that she had little background in Chenying Entertainment for the time being, and the person she was most familiar with was Zhou Chen, so she approached Zhou Chen and wanted to join the crew through Zhou Chen's relationship.
She felt that as long as Zhou Chen, the big boss, agreed, it would be a sure thing. For this reason, she had already thought of countless countermeasures.
Wang Yidi's words surprised Zhou Chen, they were really straightforward.
Of course he knows about this movie, because he wrote the script. It is a very popular movie that he has seen in the world. This movie was planned as early as a year ago, but it has not been released yet.
Start shooting.
This movie is very expensive because it requires a lot of special effects. For Chenying Entertainment, there is absolutely no room for failure.
"Wang Yidi, we are old classmates, so I will tell you the truth. The male and female protagonists of this drama have been decided a long time ago, so you are not the one to play the heroine. But since we are old classmates, I will tell you the truth.
Discuss with the director to see if there is a role that suits you."
Wang Yidi was not surprised at all when the heroine was rejected. She had been an artist in the industry for several years and knew very well that unless the heroine of a big production like this was a role, she would not look for someone with insufficient qualifications.
Female artists, because it is difficult for them to hold the scene.
She just said that to Zhou Chen on purpose, hoping to make Zhou Chen pay attention to her. Now Zhou Chen said that he could consider her for other roles, which made her overjoyed.
Appearing in such a big-budget movie, even if it is just a supporting role, is definitely a strong qualification for her.
"There must be, there must be. Boss Zhou is free today. I'll invite you to dinner. Don't refuse me again. I've invited you so many times. You are all old classmates. You can't help but give me this little face, right?"
"
"Then, okay, just tonight."
When Wang Yidi heard Zhou Chen's promise, he shouted happily: "Then it's agreed, I'll reserve a seat now and I'll let you know later."
"good."
Wang Yidi hung up the phone and shouted excitedly: "Sister Hua, help me put on makeup quickly, I must take him down today."
Song Cuihua asked cautiously: "Didi, are you really ready to attack Mr. Zhou? I've heard that Mr. Zhou is not a good person. It is said that he can even be cruel to his own father. If you anger him, the consequences will be disastrous.
.”
Wang Yidi said with a smile: "That's because you don't understand him. Zhou Chen is a bit cruel, but he would never treat his friends like that."
Song Cuihua hesitated and said: "But if your father finds out about what you do, then..."
