Chapter 44: Major art colleges in Beijing, buddies

"Teacher Hu, thank you for your hard work. I'll treat you to a meal later."

"Why are you being so polite to me? I will definitely show you my favor when the time comes."

"..."

After saying goodbye to Hu Qiong, Yan Li returned to the car and looked at Li Peng in the back seat.

"Mr. Li, do you want to take a break or go to the next school?"

"Wait a minute, I also need to consider which ones are more suitable."

Li Peng rubbed his tired eyes. Although the busy time was not long, he met with hundreds of students in one breath, observing, selecting, and analyzing them. He would also communicate and ask questions about some of the ones he thought were good. It was very exhausting. He was also old and really couldn't keep an eye on them.

"Okay, you said you wanted to try authentic Beijing roast duck. I know a small shop called Minfuju. It's delicious. I'll take you there to try it."

Yan Li did not send Li Peng directly to the hotel. He was not really there to run errands for the other party. He just wanted to find a chance to build a relationship with him.

It’s for Dong Xuan and also for myself.

In the past two days, he also used the system to "find out" that Li Peng went from Taiwan to the mainland to develop and found a financial backer - Zhonglu Group!
The Zhonglu Group is a company in Shanghai, mainly engaged in investment. The famous Forever brand bicycle was acquired by this company just last year.

In addition to Forever bicycles, Zhonglu also acquired the Modou Xie Jin Film and Television Company, entering the film and television industry.

Li Peng is an important senior executive of the reorganized Zhonglu Film and Television Company, and is currently fully responsible for the film "A Thousand Miles to Find Mother"/"Snow Goddess Dragon".

Although according to Yan Li's intelligence, Zhonglu Film and Television Company has limited capital and is not given much attention by the head office, Zhonglu Group.

But it is a formal film and television company after all, and is willing to invest in film and television production. For Yan Li now, it is necessary to make friends with it.

He has limited channels and connections now, so he might as well try his best. Maybe it will come in handy in the future.

Li Peng still cared a lot about face, or rather, after dealing with and working with Yan Li twice, he admired the young man very much.

He dares to think and act, has strong communication skills, and speaks and acts appropriately.

Li Peng even thought about asking Yan Lizhen to come to the crew of "Snow Goddess Dragon" as an executive producer to help him.

However, the experienced Li Peng could see that Yan Lizhi was not interested.

On the surface, this kid was serving attentively, but he was not blindly fawning on the boss. He left room for maneuver in everything he said and it was obvious that he had his own confidence in his heart.

To be frank, Li Peng always felt that Yan Li had figured him out and that Yan Li had the initiative in their interactions.

Such skill, and yet so young!

Li Peng is very optimistic about Yan Li's future. Even if he can't become a big shot, he is expected to have a place in the circle.

In this case, Li Peng considered whether he should sell it well before it rises.

Anyway, Dong Xuan has good conditions. I will give her the role for Yan Li's sake and ask Yan Li for a big favor. If this kid succeeds in the future, it will be worth a lot of money.

Li Peng didn't make up his mind at first, but while eating and chatting, he began to consciously show closeness to Yan Li.

If the other actors of "A Thousand Miles to Find Mother" had not been confirmed, and the main actors had some background, and it would be difficult to move them rashly, otherwise Li Peng really intended to get a role for Yan Li.

He can not only sell favors, but also trick Yan Li into joining the crew to help him.

"This old man is so mean."

In the evening, Yan Li looked at the daily intelligence that had just been released, learned of Li Peng's thoughts, and muttered unhappily.

However, Li Peng had never thought of this idea before. It turned out that he could show potential to obtain investment support.

Well, I learned another trick!
————In the next few days, Yan Li accompanied Li Peng to visit several schools including the Central Academy of Drama and the PLA Art Academy.

To Li Peng, he is a local tyrant in Beijing and has connections in all major art schools.

In several schools, he was the executive producer of regular crews. He took the initiative to come to the school to select students and help them become famous.

It seems easy to cheat both sides, but it is actually not that easy to fool!
However, Yan Li had an intelligence system that knew the interview rules of each major school's drama crew, including which teacher was keen on helping students, which student liked to organize such activities, which one could be bribed with benefits, and which one could receive benefits...

After this trip, Yan Li really accumulated some connections in major art colleges in Beijing, and the lie became the truth.

If another film crew came to the art college to recruit people at this time, Yan Li could say so with confidence.

Bro, go sideways!

The art school is settled, not to mention the group leaders of the Beijing real estate agencies. Just make a phone call and they will come to you with their information to recommend you.

However, Li Peng does not pay much attention to actors who have moved to Beijing. Those who have received professional training are fine, but those who have not received professional training are basically ignored.

Several of the main actors in "A Thousand Miles to Find Mother" are not from professional backgrounds, and the female lead is a complete newcomer. The director should be scolded just for training the actors.

Finally, after selecting and comparing again, Li Peng still felt that Dong Xuan was more suitable.

"..."

I shouldn’t have bothered with this if I had known this!
Li Peng, who had been hesitating about using this matter to make friends with Yan Li, made up his mind this time. He asked Yan Li to come and told him the good news.

Yan Li had already known about it through the system, but he still had to act surprised and happy.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li. Our Dong Xuan will definitely perform well and won't let you down."

"Okay, I believe in my judgment, and I believe in yours, too."

Li Peng's words were all for Yan Li's sake, and he wanted to solidify his favor. Yan Li also cooperated very well and said that he would never forget it.

No matter what Li Peng thought selfishly, he did help Yan Li and Dong Xuan get together.

Then Yan Li had to accept this favor.

Yan Li believes that a favor must be repaid. If you help me, then one day you will need my help, and I will definitely repay you.

Of course, Yan Li did not forget to call Dong Xuan over. On the surface, he was thanking Li Peng, but in fact he was taking credit for it.

According to future intelligence, Dong Xuan is the heroine of "Snow Goddess Dragon", which is why Yan Li has to go to great lengths to intervene and help.

The first is to provide a safety net and ensure that nothing goes wrong, the second is to find out if the crew is in any danger, and the third is to perform well in front of Dong Xuan.

He worked so hard to get her a female lead!
One can imagine how Dong Xuan feels. If Yan Li accidentally makes a mistake again, Dong Xuan's anger will suddenly subside.

Li Peng, a veteran, had long seen through the tricks of Yan Li and Dong Xuan.

Since you are doing me a favor, you should do it to the end and praise Yan Li in front of Dong Xuan.

Something about how Yan Li worked so hard to help Li Peng in order to help her; Yan Li was the biggest contributor to her getting the role; the girl was so lucky to meet such a man who was willing to sacrifice for her, blah blah blah.

Yan Li himself was a little moved, let alone Dong Xuan. The tenderness and touching look in her eyes when she looked at Yan Li was enough to drown the latter.

After returning home that night, Yan Li enjoyed the treatment of an emperor.

Dong Xuan was more gentle than ever before, giving in to Yan Li's demands and trying her best to satisfy all his reasonable and unreasonable requests...
