Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 859: Seeking Advice

Ke Fei drove over in a nice car.

Sheng Tang, who knows her stuff, immediately recognized it as a collectible antique car, well-maintained, with a newly replaced engine, powerful.

"This car is valuable!" Sheng Tang gently brushed her hand over the body and smiled at Ke Fei, "Brother Fei, did you strike it rich?"

"I told you, it wasn’t bought." Ke Fei laughed heartily.

He recounted the bet he had with Xue Liang to Sheng Tang.

Back then, when Sheng Tang took on "Genius Girl," the company’s venture capital division director, Xue Liang, sneered and mocked, thinking Sheng Tang was unreliable, and also thought Ke Fei was confused.

Xue Liang even said that the project chosen by Fu Qingcen, "High Heels," was sure to be a hit and suited Sheng Tang.

Ke Fei was not convinced and bet with him.

If Sheng Tang’s movie was a hit, Xue Liang would give Ke Fei his prized antique luxury car; if it failed, Ke Fei would give Xue Liang a lavish villa.

The outcome was that Sheng Tang’s film, with an investment of sixty million, surpassed one billion at the box office.

Xue Liang’s side, however, flopped miserably, and he was left deflated.

"So that’s how it happened?" Sheng Tang laughed as well, "Can you lend it to me for a drive in a few days?"

"Sure, but you have to be careful and not crash it," Ke Fei said, "I still have to return it to Xue Liang."

"Hey, didn’t you win?" Sheng Tang teased him deliberately.

She understood what Ke Fei meant.

Ke Fei: "Among friends, a little bet adds some fun. Really demanding a car worth millions wouldn’t be considerate. If I lost, he wouldn’t really want my villa either, at most use it for a few days for a party, to amuse himself."

Sheng Tang laughed.

"Brother Fei, you’re pretty close with Director Xue?"

"His wife is my aunt’s cousin, and he’s also been around since Old President Gu’s time, our relationship is quite deep," Ke Fei said, "It’s quite embarrassing for him with this failed project choice."

"President Gu probably wouldn’t blame him, right?"

"No, this project was chiefly advocated by Fu Qingcen, President Gu himself agreed, and it was approved through unanimous high-level recognition, signed off by him, it wasn’t solely his responsibility.

But ultimately, he’s the director of the department, the money went out under his signature, he bears unavoidable responsibility," Ke Fei said.

Sheng Tang nodded.

Ke Fei continued, "He’s keen to meet you. He can’t quite figure out the investment in ’Genius Girl,’ and would love to consult with you."

"Sure, let’s have a meal when we have time," Sheng Tang said.

Ke Fei laughed again: "In the end, Tangtang, this choice was fantastic! If not for you, this project would certainly have stalled, Liu Taofang wouldn’t have bounced back!

Now, he’s recouped the losses of the previous three films in one go, gaining both fame and profit, he’s practically commanding respect and awe. From now on, we’re in a deep collaboration with Huatai Film and Television."

Sheng Tang nodded.

Speaking of this, she indeed deserves credit.

Without her zero compensation and thirty million investment, this project couldn’t have started, Liu Taofang might have been forced into retirement.

Judging from Liu Taofang’s attitude towards the box office, the failure of the previous three films already exhausted his arrogance, he genuinely cares about the box office now and wants to maintain his position.

Therefore, Liu Taofang is certainly grateful to her.

As for Huatai Film and Television, their goodwill towards Sheng Tang is authentic, but not to the extent that she’s indispensable.

As they chatted, the car arrived at a private clubhouse in the suburbs.

The clubhouse is like a park, from the entrance to the main venue, you have to pass through a long golf course and various landscaping features.

The parking lot in the park is already filled with all kinds of luxury cars.
