Although he said he was envious and jealous, Xiao He still took the initiative to contact them the next day to inquire about cooperation and investment.
Since Sister Liu said that this Mr. Huang has a sharp eye and is very skilled at investing, then the projects he recommends should be profitable.
Moreover, Mr. Huang's ultimate goal is to revive his son's company, so the project itself shouldn't have too many problems, or at least it won't be too bad, since Mr. Huang can back it up.
So, Lin Cheng was the one who finalized the project discussions, and Lao Ma was the one who took charge of the project after the contract was signed.
It was only after handing the project over to Ma Qianyou that Xiao He finally remembered why he saw the shadow of an acquaintance in General Manager Huang.
—It's metaphysics!
Mr. Huang was wearing beads and jade pendants, and he even had a familiar fragrance... He had seen similar things on Ma Qianyou before!
"Mr. Huang is much more superstitious than I am!"
Ma Qianyou said in surprise.
"Ever since his son proved to be a disappointment—cough cough, his son wasn't suited to inherit the family business—he's been trying to defy fate, spending a fortune to find a son. Unfortunately, he damaged his health in his youth, and even IVF didn't help. So in the end, he could only hope that his son would suddenly become enlightened. He even consulted a master of metaphysics, burning incense and praying to Buddha every day. And the final result..."
Xiao He: "...So you found you had no other options?"
"He came to terms with it."
Ma Qianyou said with a hint of pity.
"Now Mr. Huang only hopes that Huang Junhao can have a child soon, and then he can bring him to his side and educate him personally."
Xiao He: ...Well, I guess I just have to accept it.
After failing to create a new account and seeing that his main account was also on the verge of collapse, he could only hope that his main account would leave something behind so he could try again.
Is this what they mean by having something and inevitably losing something else?
Thinking back to President Huang now, Xiao He inexplicably felt that the other man often had a bitter look on his face... cough cough, it shouldn't be his imagination.
"However, I believe that Mr. Huang's family will soon have a change of fortune!"
Suddenly, Ma Qianyou's voice rose sharply on the phone.
"With Xiao Xiao here, those unlucky things will definitely not happen again! In the future, even more people will come to you to cooperate and invest. Xiao Xiao, your future fortune is unstoppable!"
Xiao He: "Huh? Me?"
"You didn't know?" Ma Qianyou was still a little surprised. "You have a good eye, every film you make is a hit. We in the industry have all paid more or less attention to the fact that you have incredible luck in your productions. I'm not just saying you're lucky."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have truly regarded Xiao He as a benefactor and followed in Xiao He's footsteps all this time!
And it's really amazing, ever since Ma Qianyou started working with Linghui Entertainment Investment, he has finally shed his reputation as a "bad investor in the Chinese entertainment industry"!
So Ma Qianyou... cough cough, couldn't help but show off in the circle, which attracted a lot of attention from his peers.
In the end, everyone analyzed the situation and discovered that Xiao He did indeed possess some mystical qualities!
And people in this circle... really believe in these things!
Xiao He: "..."
You investors, all you do is stare at these things all day? What happened to believing in science?!
Xiao He was silent for a moment, and after thinking carefully, he realized that—it seemed that most of the works he had participated in had achieved pretty good results?
Being able to play a role effectively is not something to be taken lightly.
There is no exaggeration; the results speak for themselves.
However, Xiao He himself would certainly not admit it.
This kind of persona can't be created casually. If it collapses one day, wouldn't he be ridiculed to death?
Moreover, if this gets widely spread and some people actually believe it, secretly follow him in investing, or even try to steal the roles and resources he's already secured, then he'll be in real trouble.
When you can't protect your luck, shouting it out loud doesn't work very well.
Xiao He still preferred to develop his skills in secret.
So Xiao He took a deep breath and earnestly made his request to Ma Qianyou: "From now on, please don't say those things in public."
"ah?"
Ma Qianyou was silent for a moment, then immediately realized, "Oh, I understand, I understand, Mr. Xiao, don't worry, hehe."
What are you 'hey' for?! Do you even understand?!
After hanging up the phone, Xiao He sat blankly in his office chair, staring at the floor-to-ceiling window in front of him. After a long while, he scratched his hair in despair: "Ah, how did I get led astray ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) by Lao Ma? I actually believed that I had good luck!"
How ridiculous! He always has a huge chance of winning the lottery, and he always runs into cases wherever he goes. How could he possibly have incredible luck?
It's just that he and Liu Rulan are always cautious when choosing scripts, they understand them thoroughly, and they never choose bad scripts, they cherish their reputation!
Whether a script is good or bad can often be seen at a glance!
As for why there are still so many bad dramas... well, hehe.
Thinking about how he had actually started to worry, fearing that his good fortune would attract unwanted attention, Xiao He couldn't help but laugh.
Now that things had come to this, in order to prove that he was still the same black man and to bring himself to his senses, Xiao He opened the lottery interface.
After the last lottery draw, Xiao He was back to square one, with almost all his points wiped out.
Fortunately, the airing of "Yu Ye" provided him with sustained popularity, which in turn drew people into Xiao He's fandom and led them to explore his works. As a result, Xiao He's points began to rise rapidly during this period.
Before I knew it, I'd already done more than ten more draws...
Xiao He reached out his hand, hesitatingly frozen on the lottery interface, pondering the next targeted lottery content.
To be honest, the only downside to targeted education is that "poverty limited his imagination."
Xiao He really didn't know what items in this prize pool might be what he needed—but what could he possibly lack now?
Just as Xiao He was hesitating, the office door was pushed open with a "bang".
Startled, Xiao He's hand trembled, and he subconsciously closed the interface and withdrew his hand.
"Brother Xiao! Brother Xiao! Something great has happened!"
Xiao Chen rushed in excitedly and said.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao He picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip. "Next time, knock before you come in."
Xiao Chen scratched his head, then chuckled sheepishly, "Sorry, Brother Xiao."
"Let's get to the point."
Xiao He calmly changed the subject.
"Oh, okay. We've already made arrangements for your birthday party this year, Brother Xiao! It'll be held in your hometown, so your family can come and watch!"
He then looked at Xiao He expectantly and asked, "How is it, Brother Xiao? Are you happy? Are you excited? What are your thoughts on the ticket pricing and general theme for the birthday party?"
Xiao He blurted out, "A birthday party?"
Then he slapped his forehead: "Oh right, I almost forgot about that!"
Speaking of which, with this arrangement, he can go home to be with his parents this Spring Festival!
Thinking this, Xiao He immediately sat up straight: "Tickets don't matter, as long as they're free. I'll call home and let them know first."
This is the first time I've been home for Chinese New Year since entering the entertainment industry!
I need to tell my family this good news in advance!
