Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 427: Dinner, Warm and Beautiful

On the evening of June 6nd.

Wang Bao drove the car and stopped the car with Lin Li and Chen Chao in front of a six-story building on the roadside that looked quite old.

Two doormen came up to greet us immediately.

"Hello, VIP. Do you have an appointment?"

After Lin Li got out of the car wearing a mask, the doorman asked politely.

"Wang Zhonglei."

After Lin Li said a name, another doorman quickly opened the notebook and checked it, then nodded politely.

"Okay, please let us park your car. You're welcome in the Imperial Kitchen."

"this way please."

Wang Bao handed the car keys to the doorman and followed Lin Li with Chen Chao.

Lin Li glanced at the ancient style exhibition hall on the first floor and thought it was quite ancient, no wonder it was given such a name.

I just don’t know if the chef inside is the royal chef?
Lin Li thought divergently.

The doorman escorted the three people to the door leading to the inside of the building, and a waiter dressed as a waiter led the three people into the elevator.

The elevator was transparent. When passing the third floor, Lin Li saw rows of wine cabinets with ancient charm.

Although it was just a quick glance, there seemed to be a lot of wine in this place.

Soon, the elevator reached the top floor.

The elevator door opened, and the waiter continued to lead the two people through the thickly carpeted corridor.

If it were just him and Chen Chao, he might have planned to go for a walk, but today was obviously not the right time.

So he just took a quick glance at the hall where many people were sitting and a pianist was playing, and was then taken by the waiter to a private room at the back.

Knock on the door politely as a reminder, then push the door respectfully. The waiter will stand aside.

"Three distinguished guests please."

"Ah."

Lin Li and the other man responded politely and pushed the door open. Wang Bao turned around and stood silently by the door.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard a warm greeting.

"Haha, Mr. Lin, welcome, welcome."

Lin Li turned his head and saw Wang Zhonglei and another middle-aged man wearing glasses slowly getting up from the sofa in the spacious hall.

He looked a little older than Wang Zhonglei, in his early fifties, and Lin Li had already recognized his identity.

Including Lin Li and Chen Chao, there are four people in total.

Lin Li greeted him with a smile.

"Sorry, Mr. Wang, I kept you waiting. I just got here after the class was over."

"Understand, understand. Academics are important."

As he spoke, Lin Li shook hands with Wang Zhonglei, then turned around and introduced: "This is my classmate and roommate Chen Chao, who is also the deputy general manager of our Nanxun Culture."

One sentence expressed the relationship between himself and Chen Chao.

"This is my eldest brother, one of the founders of Huayi, Wang Zhongjun."

Wang Zhonglei smiled and nodded, then shook hands with Chen Chao and introduced himself before introducing Wang Zhongjun who was standing next to him to Lin Li.

"I have long heard of Mr. Wang's great name."

"Boss Lin, you must be joking. I have admired Boss Lin for a long time. I am sorry that Boss Lin was embarrassed by Wei Jin's incident last time."

Wang Zhongjun smiled and stretched out his hand. After shaking Lin Li's hand, he looked apologetic.

"They are all small matters, don't worry about them."

"Mr. Lin is generous."

Lin Li looked calm and composed. Wang Zhongjun felt relieved about what they were going to talk about next and turned to exchange a few words with Chen Chao.

When chatting, there is always a topic to start with.

So Wang Zhonglei spoke first and asked Lin Li with a curious look on his face.

"Boss Lin, is your first self-directed and self-acted work about to have an audition? This is a big deal in our industry. Recently, many actors in the company have been asking me about this."

"Yes, tentatively around the 20th. I have to go to the Magnolia Awards to present an award. I will start auditioning after I come back."

Lin Li took the tea that the waiter brought to him and said casually.

"Tsk, I heard that Magnolia invited Mr. Lin to be the judge of the TV series section. Mr. Lin is fully qualified for the job. Why did you refuse?"

Wang Zhongjun continued on the side.

"I'm still young, so I won't take on this kind of thing. I'm afraid of being scolded."

"Mr. Lin is too modest."

"Speaking of which, our company has some good talents, and they are all fans of Mr. Lin. They are waiting outside now, wanting to meet Mr. Lin, their idol. How about Mr. Lin give them a chance?"

"Boss Wang is really considerate of his subordinates. Let's take a look at that later."

Lin Li glanced at the smiling Wang brothers with interest, wanting to see how they would "bribe" him.

"Zhonglei, today's banquet is a private banquet. It would be so lonely for a few grown men like us to be here. It would be a bit lonely and lack of scenery. How can we do this?"

"Let them come in early."

As soon as Wang Zhongjun finished speaking, Wang Zhonglei stood up with a smile.

"That's right, big brother. I'll go call them in right now. Mr. Lin, excuse me for a moment."

"it is good."

Lin Li chuckled and responded.

He had no intention of resisting; this kind of interaction was inevitable.

When in Rome, adapt to the local customs. Going with the crowd is sometimes a necessary quality.

He also wanted to see how long the Wang brothers could keep their composure.

After Wang Zhonglei left, Wang Zhongjun took the lead, and the three of them continued talking, laughing, and greeting each other.

About seven or eight minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

Then the door opened and Wang Zhonglei, who had returned, walked in with a few tall and good-looking girls.

In a trance, Lin Li thought he was in a nightclub.

After a quick look, I saw a familiar face.

"Boss Lin, these guys are all your fans. They are so excited to meet you today."

Wang Zhonglei said with a smile.

After signaling the waiter to close the door, he walked to the sofa with a few girls and said to Lin Li. "Okay."

Lin Li smiled and nodded.

"Boss Lin, shall we take our seats first?"

"no problem."

"Huayi's actresses all have their own characteristics."

Lin Li responded and turned to praise Wang Zhongjun.

"Haha, it would be great if I could catch Mr. Lin's eye."

Wang Zhongjun stood up with a smile.

"As the saying goes, a talented man and a beautiful woman, now we have them all."

"Come on, let's take our seats and chat while we eat."

"Mr. Lin, please."

"Mr. Wang, please."

Lin Li and Chen Chao followed Wang Zhongjun and the others to sit at the round table, with seats arranged by Wang Zhongjun himself.

When it came to the guest seat, Lin Li argued with him for a while, but finally, unable to resist Wang Zhongjun's politeness, Lin Li sat there.

Wang Zhongjun was one seat away from him, followed by Chen Chao, and on the other side of Wang Zhongjun was Wang Zhonglei.

They all sit separately.

After they sat down, Wang Zhonglei waved and arranged for six actresses who were indeed good-looking to sit down.

There was one sitting next to each of the two brothers, and two sitting next to Lin Li and Chen Chao.

A fragrant breeze blew past my nose.

On each side of Lin Li sat a girl with outstanding looks and delicate makeup.

"Hello, Mr. Nanxun, I am actor Qi Yandi."

After the girl on the right sat down, she immediately picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Lin Li, and greeted Lin Li respectfully.

"Ah hello."

Facing Qi Yandi's outstanding appearance, Lin Li looked calm, smiled and nodded.

If he remembered correctly, this girl should be participating in Produce 101. Was she eliminated, or did she take time out from the competition to come here?

I have to say, this girl is very beautiful.

She has a sweet and gentle appearance, a pair of long legs that contrasts very well with her sweet face, and very fair skin. She is a beauty at first sight.

Today she is wearing a sexy yet casual rainbow-colored suspenders, showing off her curvy figure.

The gorgeous rainbow striped suspenders, coupled with the pleated design and the flowing beauty of the laces, are full of youthful vitality. Paired with a pair of bleached casual denim shorts, it shows off long legs and fair skin.

Her slender, white arms and long legs and her flowing long hair make her look very ladylike.

If Lin Li wasn't used to seeing beautiful women, he would have probably taken a few more glances at her.

Lin Li remembered that she came from a well-off family and was a fellow villager from Wei Province, but he didn't expect to see her in such an occasion.

The girl on the left introduced herself as Lin Jing. He was not familiar with her, but she looked sexy in that tight black dress. However, things might not turn out well later on, as Lin Li had no impression of her at all.

Lin Li held the teacup. The two completely different scents of perfume made his nose slightly itchy, and he exhaled imperceptibly.

It's not pungent, but it's a bit agitated.

He is also a human being, a man.

In such a situation, he is not Liu Xiahui and it is difficult for him to remain completely calm.

But no matter how restless he was, reason always told him what he should and should not do.

To put it bluntly, I am not a sex-hungry ghost. I am not that useless.

Besides...

Today he promised Dudu that he would go back and watch TV series with her. Dudu has recently fallen in love with a British mystery drama and always likes to drag him to watch the updates together.

Tsk...it turns out that women all love to watch TV series, and Dudu is no exception.

With some emotion, Lin Li took another sip of tea.

As soon as he put down the cup, Qi Yandi considerately refilled it for him.

Lin Li was polite in his bones and habitually tapped the table twice with his fingertips.

Qi Yandi was stunned and glanced at him several times.

Lin Li didn't look at her, but started chatting with Wang Zhongjun about the last incident of Xing Han Canlan.

Qi Yandi also sat quietly aside, just like the other girls.

There was an obedient smile on his face, and his eyes showed an expression of listening.

But she would occasionally cast an inquiring look at Lin Li's face. She had been curious about this legendary teacher Nan Xun for a long time.

Otherwise, given her family conditions, she could have easily refused in an occasion like today.

In the following time, the topic gradually drifted away.

In private, these two people seem to be the kind of people who pay great attention to the quality of life.

He knows all kinds of knowledge about red wine, cigars, whiskey, etc.

Sometimes they talked about red wine, sometimes they talked about some events in the capital.

Or maybe it's some underworld legend, where people talk about everything except work, a bit like they only talk about romance and not feelings.

But it is understandable. After all, there are not only men at this table, but also girls.

For the people at this table, these girls are like flowers on the table, serving to create an atmosphere.

The symbolic meaning is greater than the actual value.

No one is so impatient as to directly pull a girl into his arms.

They are just embellishments, just like commodities, at most adding a layer of service attributes.

Whether it's pouring wine, tea, preparing paper towels or wet wipes, or even picking up food, Lin Li doesn't have to worry about it.

Talented men and beautiful women, red sleeves add fragrance.

I have to admit, it does make people feel a little light-headed. Lin Li glanced at Chen Chao, who was a little drunk. His face was flushed and his eyes were shining as he looked at the girl next to him.

"I wonder if General Lin paid attention to Bingbing's incident a few days ago?"

After three rounds of drinks, Wang Zhonglei and Wang Zhongjun looked at each other, and he spoke tentatively.

Lin Li smiled imperceptibly, slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at him.

The real drama is here.
