"Zi Hui, are you alright?" When Lin Zi Hui walked back from the entrance hall, Qiao Wen had also recovered from the shock of seeing Lin Zi Rui, and he looked up and casually asked.
Lin Zi Hui sat down, greeted the servants with tea, nodded and said, "It's been more than four months since I found out that my Abba was sick, the doctor told me from the beginning that he was incurable, so I was actually mentally prepared, but it's always a bit overwhelming to actually see someone gone." Saying that, he took a deep breath and forced a smile, "But I've gotten much better in the past few days, so you guys don't have to worry about me."
Chen Canaan was afraid to pat his shoulder and said, "Zi Hui, old age, sickness and death are commonplace, there are no hurdles in life that you can't get over, you still have your uncle, and there are still Xiao Qiao and I who are friends."
Qiao Wen smiled faintly as he looked at him, thinking that this guy usually pinched Lin Zi Hui when they met, but it turned out that he was still quite measured, and apparently had already treated people as true friends.
Lin Zi Hui was grateful and nodded with a smile, "Well, I'm fine, thank you."
Qiao Wen picked up the tea brewed by the maid, gently sipped it, thought for a moment, and asked without moving, "By the way Zi Hui, once upon a time I didn't even hear you mention your big brother, and thought that you guys had a distant relationship, but now it seems as if it's not bad at all."
Lin Zi Hui laughed lightly and said, "In fact, my elder brother and I hadn't met much before, he went abroad to study at the age of twelve, and has been abroad all the time, returning to Hong Kong City very rarely, and my Abba has always prevented me from interacting with the Lin family, and although I know that there is such an elder brother, it was only until this time that my Abba passed away after a long illness, and he returned to take over the Lin's that I formally had dealings with him. " He gave a slight beat and said in a relieved tone, "I thought that he was as anti-me as Mrs. Lin, but I never thought that he would allow me to attend the funeral as his second son, and even let me support the coffin for my Abba's funeral. Honestly, I'm really grateful to him."
Chen Canaan said loudly, "How to say that you are all blood brothers, besides, your Abba didn't leave you a penny, and your elder brother doesn't have to worry about you sharing the property, so there's no need to guard against you."
Jovian: "......" Although this is the case, it's still a bad thing to say, and he decides to retract his comment about him being "measured".
Fortunately, Lin Zi Hui didn't care, and even thought quite a bit about it, smiling helplessly, "Actually, I think my big brother is quite nice, but my Abba explained before he died that I shouldn't get too close to the Lin family, so I can't be too good at rushing up to befriend people."
Qiao Wen recalled that day in the hospital room, what Lin Zhaoming had said, he had indeed instructed this youngest son of his very seriously, telling him to live his own life in the future and distance himself from the Lin family.
But Lin Zi Hui is also surnamed Lin, even if Mrs. Lin can not tolerate him, Lin Zi Rui is also his father's brother. As a matter of fact, all fathers want their sons to be brotherly and friendly, not to mention that Lin Zhaoming has only two sons, in order to reduce the disputes, but also did not give a penny to Lin Zi Hui, can be said to be absolutely biased in favor of the eldest son, it is impossible to have any dispute over the contradiction of the property, there is really no need to explain the youngest son away from the Lin family people a little bit.
Thinking of that Lin Zi Rui who looked almost exactly like Lin Nan, Qiao Wen frowned and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, your Abba and his wife only have one son, sooner or later, the family business will be your elder brother's, but to take over the huge Lin Clan, it's not something that can be done overnight, so how is it that after your elder brother's graduation, your Abba didn't let him come home to the company but instead, he let him stay in a foreign country? "
On the other hand, Lin Zi Hui this bastard, although he always said that he is wearing the male lead aura, all the way to hang on, just a few years has become the city ranked good young talent, rising star, but in fact, if there is no Lin Zhaoming carefully cultivate behind the scenes to help, Lin Zi Hui absolutely will not have the current achievements. Instead, it is the turn of the need to take over the eldest son, Lin Zhaoming is laissez-faire, it is a bit unreasonable.
Or is it that Lin Zhaoming is too enlightened and doting on his eldest son?
Lin Zi Hui shook his head and said, "I'm not sure about this, my Abba seldom talks to me about his family's affairs, I heard that it was my elder brother who wasn't too interested in business, so he stayed abroad all the time. It's only now that Abba passed away that he had to come home to inherit the family business."
Jovian nodded thoughtfully, "I see."
Chen Canaan, who was on the side, suddenly remembered something at this time as if asking, "By the way, is your cheap uncle surnamed Zhong also back?"
Lin Zihui knew that he was talking about Zhong Kevin, the brother-in-law of his abba, and when the Lin's Zhong's merged, Zhong Kevin, a shareholder, left the country. Now that his dad had passed away, this person had indeed returned to Hong Kong City.
He frowned and nodded, "That's right, this time he even attended the funeral." As if he suddenly remembered something, he looked up and widened his eyes at Qiao Wen, "Wen, you said that this person tried to kill my Abba and annexed Lin's property in the first place, and now that my elder brother has taken over Lin's, will he be unfavorable to my elder brother?"
Qiao Wen laughed, "You really are quite self-conscious about being a brother. However, in my opinion, your elder brother is different from your Abba, he and Zhong Kaiwen are close uncles and nephews, and Zhong Kaiwen doesn't have any children of his own, so it shouldn't be so bad that he would harm your elder brother for the sake of money."
Lin Zi Hui, however, remained worried, "But my elder brother is not interested in doing business, so if Zhong Kai Wen holds the power of the company and wreaks havoc on my father's hard work, that's not good either."
Qiao Wen said, "Zi Hui, you've forgotten your Abba's explanation before he died, telling you to stay away from the Lin and Zhong families. How they are, that's their own business, it has nothing to do with you. Just live your own life."
Lin Zihui nodded, a little frustrated, "You're right."
Qiao Wen looked at his obviously lost expression, and actually understood his mentality, after all, he was also surnamed Lin, and grew up alone, and now that his father had passed away, it wasn't surprising that he wanted to befriend his brother, who was the closest in blood.
"By the way," Lin Zihui said as if he remembered something, "I heard you guys are planning to start a movie award?"
Qiao Wen nodded, "That's right, we're all doing well at the box office with our movies now, and we're really making a lot of money, so we're thinking of doing something more to promote the healthy development of the entire industry."
Lin Zihui also quite liked movies, and hearing him say this, he nodded with deep conviction, "I'll support you guys, if you need any help, just ask."
Qiao Wen laughed, "The sponsorship piece, Boss Lin that definitely won't run away."
"Shoulda shoulda shoulda."
The three of them gossiped for a while longer and ate dinner before saying goodbye and leaving.
Regarding the movie awards, it is indeed an important task for Jovan at the moment.
This world is similar to the real world, the movie industry has been growing rapidly in the past few years, both the black and white are sharing the pie, every year there are new movie companies springing up, leading to chaos in the industry, and the quality of the movies is also mixed. Because there are no formal awards, naturally there are no formal judging criteria, many good movies, and therefore buried.
Movies are culture as well as art, and they can't just focus on the pursuit of box office and making money; he came to this world and did this business, so he has to have a higher pursuit other than making money. He referred to the real world of the Golden Statue Awards, the golden age of Hong Kong films for thirty years, this award is the symbol of the Oriental Hollywood.
Now, it's up to them, Vinnan Films, to be the founders.
Only, now the movie circle is like a plate of scattered sand, all kinds of bright struggle and grudges, days and nights can not be said, they Wen Nan is also a thorn in the flesh of a lot of people in the eye, to bring the filmmakers together, it is really not an easy thing.
First of all, it is necessary to invite a few big titans in the industry as the initiator and the organizing committee, so that it will have credibility and the major film companies will be willing to participate.
During this recent period of time, Qiao Wen had been going around visiting several of the most prestigious bigwigs in the circle. Two of them had already been negotiated, but the most prestigious one never made it.
This big man called Park Zerun, was once a popular big star, from the Republic of Shanghai, to the 50s and 60s Hong Kong City, has shot dozens of movies, leaving a lot of popular masterpieces, is the history of the development of Chinese films deservedly representative of the figure. Retired for more than ten years, belonging to the people are not in the jianghu, but the jianghu always has its legend of the big man, often people want to ask for money to appear, were rejected, only in the newspaper published movie reviews, from time to time to slam the current film industry's fickleness of the wind.
Qiao Wen had previously asked Tang Xingwei to contact this old gentleman, but as soon as the other party heard what they were trying to do, they spluttered on the phone, saying that they were trying to make a name for themselves and then hung up the phone with an angry grunt, scolding Tang Xingwei to the point where he couldn't cry.
Qiao Wen had heard that Bo Zerun had a foul temper, but did not care, and decided to find an opportunity to personally meet with the person, and then slowly discuss.
With his current ability, it's not difficult to find Mr. Park, but it's not good to go directly to the door, so he can only curve and find a chance to get acquainted with someone before saying anything.
The opportunity soon came, it turned out that the old Mr. Park usually love to play tennis, more than 60 years old, still go to the tennis court every week to play two or three games, said to be very good at the game, can be called the old and strong dragon and tiger.
Qiao Wen himself this weak body is no way, but Chen Canaan from time to time by the broad godmother godmother sister captured, practiced a hand of good ball skills, that must be put to good use.
The course was a members-only one, accessed by celebrities, and it was fairly quiet on a weekday afternoon, so the two of them found a court and played for fun while they waited for Mr. Park to come in.
Much as expected, it was only twenty or so minutes later that Park Runner came in with a young man carrying a racket.
Seeing this, Qiao Wen feigned rest and sat with Chen Canaan in the stands on either side to watch them fight.
Chen Canaan is a quiet nature, every time you see a good ball can not help but applaud, see the error will sigh, is a very dedicated audience.
After just a few moments of watching this, the young man across the street was defeated first and waved his hand to rest.
Berzerkerun was dissatisfied, "How can you have such poor stamina at such a young age! Again!"
"Auntie, how can I compare to you? No, I must rest for a while."
It turned out to be aunt and nephew two people, this great nephew looked well-mannered, presumably by the aunt to catch the strong man to catch.
Bo Runze watched his nephew vanish, grunted in dissatisfaction, his eyes fell on the bench opposite, the jaded looking Chen Canaan, and beckoned towards the man, "Backwoods boy, accompany me to play a game."
Chen Canaan got up and exclaimed, "Old sir, you can't be angry if you lose the fight!"
Bai Runze said, "Playing is about strengthening the body, winning or losing is not important. But you young man has a big mouth, let me see if you are really capable."
Chen Canaan ran into the arena with his racket heatedly.
Jovian raised an eyebrow, sure enough it was useful to bring this guy along.
This old Mr. Park said on his lips that it is not important to win or lose, but it is obviously a good master, the first shot is a big kill, strength and speed really really does not look like this age can be, Chen Canaan coped with a very difficult to cope with.
Qiaowen was looking at it with great interest when a man suddenly sat down beside him.
He subconsciously turned his head, and what he saw was a face that was too familiar to be true.
"Hello, Mr. Qiao, come to play ball?" Lin Zi Rui looked at him and spoke with a light smile.
"You ...... are well, Mr. Lin."
Because this person appeared so unexpectedly, Qiaowen was actually a bit speechless for a moment.
