Mr. Liu is evidently quite knowledgeable, otherwise he couldn’t have been a leader.
"I think the sa," Chen Feng nodded confidently, "Although this industry is quite complex, I have so acquaintances, so I’m not completely clueless."
"You have acquaintances in the entertainnt circle?" Liu Ying eagerly asked.
"Yes, you know Yang Ziyin and Zhang Yuxi, right?" Chen Feng asked calmly.
"Yang Ziyin?!" Liu Ying couldn’t help but widen her eyes slightly, "You know Yang Ziyin?"
Although she had been living abroad, she was not completely disconnected from her country. Instead, as a housewife with plenty of ti, she watched a lot of dramas. Not the foreign dramas, but dostic and Korean ones.
Being one of the top actresses in the country, Liu Ying was very familiar with Yang Ziyin’s work, having watched all of it.
As for Zhang Yuxi, Liu Ying also knew about her, but she didn’t think much of her compared to Yang Ziyin.
"Yes. Not long ago, I traveled to Europe and happened to stay at the sa hotel as her, helped her out a bit, and got to know her. Later I also t her agent, Hao Xiaolian. Through her, I recomnded two suitable film companies for acquisition this ti."
"You want to acquire two companies? How much would that cost?" Liu Ying quickly asked.
"Why acquire two? Just one. Mainly, I want to buy a pre-existing entity. It saves the money and effort of registering a new company and applying for a film production license, etc. These companies vary in qualifications and price. I’ll carefully choose the one with the best value for money."
Mr. Liu nodded with so appreciation and said, "Looks like you’ve done quite a bit of preliminary work, so it’s worth a try. However, even if you successfully acquire a film company, it’s not easy to invest in film production and make money from it.
I happen to know sothing about film production too. I have an old classmate who is a director, and he’s been in the industry for decades now. I’ve learned a lot from him. There are many traps to siphon money in production crews. If you don’t have soone to oversee it, you could suffer huge losses. Be careful about this."
Liu Ying, hearing her father speak, couldn’t help but ask, "Dad, are you talking about Uncle Zhao?"
Mr. Liu nodded, "Yes, it’s him. Uncle Zhao started as a screenwriter, gradually becoming a director. Although he hasn’t made a huge na over the years, he’s shot a dozen TV series and several movies. More importantly, after decades in the field, he has a wide network; many people know him."
Liu Ying nodded but didn’t think much of it.
Chen Feng, however, paid a bit more attention and, catching the underlying implication in Mr. Liu’s words, asked, "Is Uncle Zhao still directing?"
Mr. Liu shook his head, "Not much anymore. He says it’s too tiring, but he’s made quite a bit of money being a director over the years. He’s basically retired now."
Chen Feng imdiately said, "How about you ask him if he’s interested in becoming a consultant for my future film company? He wouldn’t have to work every day, just advise us when needed, and help establish so connections."
Mr. Liu laughed when he heard this and nodded with satisfaction, "I can ask him for you. But since you haven’t even acquired a company yet, it’s too early. Wait until you’ve successfully taken over a company, and then I’ll get in touch with him."
Chen Feng thought for a mont and then nodded, "That works too; I’ll trouble you then."
"We’re all family. No need for that," Mr. Liu waved it off and then asked, "From the looks of it, you seem quite well-off now. Do you have a house here in Xiu Zhou? Are you planning to live here permanently?"
Chen Feng saw no need to hide this, so he nodded and said, "Yes. I have two villas in Red Villa Bay on East Hua Road. Unless sothing unexpected happens, I plan to settle in Xiu Zhou."
As soon as he said this, the three mbers of the Liu family were all shocked. This included Liu Ying, who already knew Chen Feng lived in No. 8 Villa.
Although Liu Ying already knew that the No. 8 Villa in Red Villa Bay was Chen Feng’s, she didn’t know he had another villa there.
In fact, Chen Feng was sowhat holding back since, aside from the two villas in Red Villa Bay, he also had a Lakefront Villa by East Lake, as well as office spaces and store fronts. The total value of his properties was close to ten million.
At this mont, Liu Ying was both shocked and thrilled beyond belief. She had already thought highly of Chen Feng’s financial prowess before, but now she realized she had underestimated him. He’s not just acquiring a film company; he’s also planning to invest in filming dramas and movies.
And now he says he has two villas in Red Villa Bay. One of them is the No. 8 Villa that her ever-Versailles aunt envies so much.
If she becos the lady of that villa, the aunt she’s been trying so hard to impress would instead have to curry favor with her.
"Is it really Red Villa Bay? What a coincidence!"
Mrs. Liu, who had been quiet all this while, suddenly spoke up in surprise. The reason was naturally that her sister’s family also lived in Red Villa Bay.
"I currently live in Red Villa Bay, Auntie, have you been there?" Chen Feng asked, feigning curiosity.
Mrs. Liu imdiately laughed, "Of course I’ve been there. My sister’s family lives in the Red Villa Bay complex. Which building is it again? Little Ying, do you rember?"
