Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 26

"Sure, I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."

They ordered some beer, Xu Lei ate a couple of bites of wontons, and he and Li Chengyang drank a few bottles.

The underlings on the side didn't dare to drink; this situation wasn't something he had gotten involved in.

"Mr. Xu is truly a genius; he foresaw everything. I'm curious, how did Mr. Xu know about the affairs of our Green Vine City?"

"I just made a slight guess, and then I figured it out."

Li Chengyang did not speak.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Xu Lei stood up and said, "I really enjoyed the meal. Yu Jingjing, do you have a QQ account? Let's add each other as friends. We can really do business together in the future."

Yu Jingjing had no choice but to add Xu Lei's QQ number.

After leaving the wonton shop, Xu Lei found a hotel and said, "Thank you all for your help. I'll go and rest now."

Inside the room, Chen Shuting sat next to Xu Lei and helped him remove his clothes.

She took care of Xu Lei.

"Why are you coming to Green Vine instead of staying in Jinghai?"

"It's nothing, just preparing in advance. Xiaolong is too dazzling. There were too many people at the last product launch, so I need to plan ahead."

"Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Mingyuan both want to try their luck. They've seen the huge profits in the mobile phone market, but if you don't budge, there's nothing they can do."

Xu Lei said, "People should always take precautions. What you saw tonight was missing something."

"Where is the difference?"

"Li Chengyang is a knife, and Zheng Yihong is a knife too. How much the fish fry I throw out will grow depends on their own fate."

Chen Shuting rolled her eyes at Xu Lei and said, "Then am I your knife?"

"Guess."

"You're just a kid, always speculating about what's going on with Yu Jingjing."

"Nothing happened."

"I've noticed that you're very interested in stealing other people's women. It's obvious that Li Chengyang likes Yu Jingjing, and I think Xu Yingzi is pretty good too. If you send her a message now, that silly girl will definitely come to keep you company. She's just a kid, so she might not know much. You'll have to teach her."

"Auntie, do you not need to be taught?"

"I don't know either, but I've seen and heard about it, so I should know more than a child."

Xu Lei didn't touch Chen Shuting. He wasn't in a hurry at all. Even if he took Chen Shuting now, she wouldn't complain.

However, Xu Lei needs to perfectly tame this wild horse.

Otherwise, it will always be a ticking time bomb.

In the original drama, Chen Shuting didn't shed a tear when her husband died; all she cared about was the wealth and status of herself and her daughter.

However, when everyone thought she was just an ordinary woman, Chen Shuting's aura, her grasp of the big picture, and her connections completely overwhelmed many people.

Xu Lei closed his eyes softly.

Chen Shuting received a call from Bai Jiangbo.

"Shuting, aren't you coming back tonight?"

"Xiao Lei has had too much to drink. If I leave, what's the point?"

"Oh, take good care of Xiao Lei. I need to thank Xiao Lei properly this time. Uncle Tai has given me permission to open a club. I plan to take over the previous few run-down clubs, renovate them, and get them up and running as soon as possible to make money."

"Okay, make more money, but be careful not to give anyone any leverage over you. I don't want to visit you in jail."

Bai Jiangbo shook his head and said, "Don't worry, there won't be any problems. Even if something happens to me, I will leave you and your daughter enough property to live on."

"Stop talking nonsense. I've had a drink too, and I need to rest as well."

"Okay, be careful. You've had a hard time this time. It's my fault for not handling the gift well. Just wait, in the future, I'll make those officials fear me."

Upon hearing this, Chen Shuting would have definitely tried to dissuade Bai Jiangbo in the past.

But this time, Chen Shuting didn't stop him, letting Bai Jiangbo go wild.

She actually understood Xu Lei's thoughts.

To destroy a person, you must first drive them mad.

She gently lifted the blanket, slipped inside, and nestled against Xu Lei, quietly turning to look at this enigmatic man.

For the first time, Chen Shuting felt that this might be the real support she could rely on.

P.S.: Please support me, thank you everyone.

Chapter 41 The Legend Begins (Seeking Support, Third Update)

Xu Lei and Chen Shuting parted ways after returning to Jinghai, each busy with their own affairs.

Soon, Sun Xing arrived in Jinghai with his men and money, found Uncle Tai, and had some tea. Chengcheng was very angry at the dinner and expressed her dissatisfaction, but she didn't care because of Uncle Tai.

Sun Xing invested a lot of money, and Gao Mingyuan also poured a lot of money into opening the Dilong Nightclub in Jinghai.

The interior design is even more luxurious than that of Buckingham, and the overall layout is even more sophisticated.

Surprisingly, Chengcheng's Platinum Hammer business did not decline; in fact, it seemed to have improved significantly.

Chengcheng was also puzzled by this. Xu Lei's explanation was simple: because Bai Jinhan was clean.

Not everyone likes black.

A woman in a brothel will eventually get tired of being with men, and once they're tired of her, they'll go there less often.

In pristine and clean places, hunting is always a man's pleasure.

While meat dishes can be profitable, the most outstanding among the many will inevitably be overshadowed.

For the past two months, Xu Lei has been working on a project.

Without anyone noticing, I started playing a game called Legend.

Built on the QQ platform, you can log in to this game directly using your QQ number.

The game's payment model includes both prepaid and monthly subscription options, all of which are purchased directly.

You can purchase it at internet cafes or banks.

Some items in the game that aren't too overpowered can be purchased with real money.

You'll also need to buy additional enhancement stones and other items.

The game's release instantly ignited the gaming market.

As one of the earliest representatives of online games, Xu Lei knew all too well how profitable this game was.

You can have conversations, romance, and even swearing in the game.

Getting married in the game is also possible.

In an instant, all the internet cafes in Jinghai were packed with people, who flocked in and downloaded things like crazy. Not only that, the computer market in Jinghai also became incredibly popular.

There are also a lot of people who buy computers to play games.

The Legend game was eventually ruined by cheats and private servers, but Xu Lei knew that this was unavoidable because in the future, new games would take its place.

The reason Xu Lei used the term "Legend" was actually to cultivate people's habit of paying for content.

For example, the highest-level members of the Penguin membership can have their titles displayed in the game.

It doesn't have many attributes, but it's really cool.

Xu Lei deliberately released some items, such as a minor character who obtained the first Dragon Slayer Sword and then sold it for 100,000 yuan.

Instantly, the penguin once again attracted everyone's attention. How much business opportunity the new game would bring was a secret.

But some observant people discovered a very frightening place.

There are many ways to top up your account on Tencent, including through banks and even mobile carriers.

Everyone was curious about how Xu Lei managed to win over these people, any one of whom would be a big shot in their own right.

Now they are all willing to serve Xu Lei.

It has completely shattered the understanding of countless people.

Xu Jiang found Xu Lei and asked, "Any drinking parties coming up soon?"

Xu Lei said, "That's all, Dad. Have you gained weight?"

"Nonsense, how could I not get fat? Drinking all day long, if I keep drinking like this, I think I'll get so fat I'll die. Did Dad do a good job this time?"

Xu Lei said, "Of course, Dad, how did you handle things with the bank?"

"It wasn't very easy to get things done. I went there and told them I wanted to cooperate, and they immediately agreed."

Xu Lei nodded and said, "Hmm, guess how much we earned in a month."

Xu Jiang said, "A monthly card is only thirty-five yuan, how much can you earn?"

Xu Lei said, "Not much, maybe a little over 20 million."

The most ruthless thing is always monopoly, and monopoly is the most powerful thing.

Xu Jiang was also shocked and said, "So profitable?"

Xu Lei took out a list and said, "These people are all asking me to customize equipment. Each of them has offered a very high price. Some solo players have already spent millions in the game."

They're all insane, fucking insane! This is just a stupid game, is it really necessary to go to such lengths?

Xu Lei and Xu Jiang were discussing things at home when the door was pushed open, and Cheng Cheng looked at Xu Lei angrily.

Xu Lei said, "Sister Chengcheng, who made you angry? Dad, call the police."

Xu Jiang immediately said, "Oh dear, son, my stomach hurts. You can take care of it yourself."

After saying that, Xu Jiang ran away.

Xu Lei was speechless. That's too much, damn it.

"It's been two months, and I haven't mentioned this to you at all. You don't care at all, do you?"

Xu Lei asked, "What's wrong?"

"Originally there were only four clubs, but now there are many more. Sun Xing's club is always fully booked, and Bai Jiangbo's clubs are also fully booked. Many of my clients have gone there."

"Let bygones be bygones. Look at you, why are you so angry about this? Here, there's 20 million in here, calm down."

Chengcheng angrily went straight to Xu Lei's arms, wrapped her arms around his neck, and said, "If you talk to me about money again, I'll strangle you. I'll commit suicide, you believe me?"

Xu Lei said, "Isn't this obvious?"

"I understand now, it's about protecting my safety, luring away any potentially dangerous clients, and ensuring the safety of all my clubs."

Xu Lei said, "You know that, and you're still angry?"

“I’m envious of Chen Shuting’s high earnings. I heard she’s been doing a lot of things for you lately, hasn’t she? Also, Uncle Tai gave the Mang Village project to Chen Shuting.”

Xu Lei was stunned and said, "How come I didn't know about this?"

"Is this a big deal? It's not a big deal."

Xu Lei sighed, picked up the phone, and said, "Chen Shuting, are you being disobedient?"

Chen Shuting said, "How am I being disobedient again? I've been doing exactly what you said, so why are you suddenly criticizing me?"

"You still need to be disciplined. Who gave you permission to take on the affairs of Mang Village?"

"A project costing millions from start to finish, are you really that concerned about it?"

"Cance it, come find me later, come to my house, but don't let anyone know."

"I."

Chengcheng took the phone and said, "You'll be there in two hours, remember? We have something to do."

Chen Shuting hung up the phone immediately.

This slut is shameless.

P.S.: Please support me, thank you everyone.
