Chapter 405 Are you worthy?
"To the Gangcheng Hotel?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yaoyang's eyes lit up immediately.
He had heard before that this was the most famous hotel in the port city, a place frequently visited by the sons of wealthy families and celebrities in the entertainment industry.
Moreover, there are many beautiful young girls there!
Most importantly, I heard that the Xiang family is holding a banquet there this week. Could it be...?
"Yes."
Chen Le knew what Chu Yaoyang was thinking and nodded.
"Brother Le, you really brought me here?"
Chu Yaoyang asked excitedly.
Besides Hong Kong's celebrities, the majority of those who can attend such banquets are naturally Hong Kong's female stars.
It's important to know that Hong Kong actresses in the early days were not as simple as they are in mainland China today; they were all truly talented actresses with both acting skills and good looks.
Chen Le rolled his eyes, somewhat helpless.
Without needing to say anything, he already knew what Chu Yaoyang was thinking.
"Chen Le had important business to attend to at the banquet that Elder Zhang invited last time, so of course he couldn't bring you along."
"But this time, I brought you here for serious business, so don't get the wrong idea. I brought you here so you can build your network, not just keep eyeing those young girls."
Chen Le said irritably.
"I know, I know."
Chu Yaoyang scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, then said excitedly:
"Brother Le, don't worry, I'll definitely do my best!"
The two then got into the car and headed to the Gangcheng Hotel.
Gangcheng Hotel.
The two got out of the car and walked towards the hotel.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance, I was stopped by the security guard.
"Stop! Please show your invitation."
The security guard said expressionlessly.
Chen Le took the invitation out of his pocket and handed it over.
The security guard took the invitation, looked at it carefully, and then nodded.
"go in."
The two went inside, and a waiter came to greet them.
"Sir, how can I help you?"
"We are here to attend the banquet."
Chen Le said with a smile.
"Okay, please follow me."
The waiter said, leading the way.
Chu Yaoyang looked around and asked, somewhat puzzled:
"Brother Le, isn't your wife coming along?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Le shook his head.
"She's not used to this kind of occasion."
Chu Yaoyang nodded upon hearing this.
Indeed, my sister-in-law doesn't seem like the kind of person who enjoys crowds.
The waiter led the two of them inside, where they encountered many elegantly dressed men and women along the way.
They chatted and laughed, and seemed very happy.
Led by a waiter, the two arrived at the banquet hall.
The Xiang family truly lives up to their reputation as a prominent family in Hong Kong; the scale of this banquet alone is breathtaking.
The hall was resplendent with gold, and the crystal chandeliers shone brilliantly.
The surrounding area was decorated with various exquisite ornaments, making it appear very luxurious.
Chen Le looked around, searching for his target.
Just then, a familiar voice rang in my ears.
Chen Le turned his head and saw Li Xianyuan walking towards him with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Li."
Chen Le smiled and went to greet him.
Li Xianyuan is the president of the Gangcheng Film and Television Association and holds a pivotal position in the Gangcheng film and television industry.
Chen Le had previously visited him when he came to Hong Kong to register a company.
“Ah Le”.
Li Xianyuan shouted with a smile.
He glanced at Chen Le, then at Chu Yaoyang behind him, and asked with some confusion:
"What are you doing here with Ah Le?"
He had specifically asked Chu Yaoyang beforehand that Chen Le had brought his wife with him to Hong Kong this time.
He was hoping to take this opportunity to meet Madam Chen, but instead, it was Chu Yaoyang who came.
Chu Yaoyang scratched his head and said with a smile:
"My sister-in-law isn't used to these kinds of occasions, so she didn't come."
Upon hearing this, Li Xianyuan laughed heartily.
"It seems that I, this old man, was not thinking things through."
Then, he turned to look at Chen Le and asked with a smile:
"Ah Lok, how's the filming going?"
"The filming is almost complete."
Chen Le said with a smile, "I estimate we'll wrap up filming in about a month."
Upon hearing this, Li Xianyuan smiled with satisfaction.
"Not bad, that's pretty fast."
He patted Chen Le on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"Ah Le, you're a talented person, I have high hopes for you."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Li."
Chen Le said gratefully.
Li Xianyuan looked at Chen Le with admiration in his eyes.
"Ah Le, let me tell you, the Xiang family invited a lot of reporters today. I guess they want to announce something and promote their young master, Xiang Xiatian."
Chen Le was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
"Is the promotion aimed at summer?"
Li Xianyuan nodded.
"That's right. Isn't Xiang Xiatian going to enter the film and television industry? I bet the Xiang family will take this opportunity to promote him."
"Moreover, I also heard that Zheng Tianming came."
Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Chen Le's eyes, and he nodded.
"I have already met them."
As for the conflict at the hotel that day, Chen Le hesitated for a moment and did not speak of it.
After all, bringing up such things will only cause unnecessary trouble for others.
Li Xianyuan was unaware of what had happened in between, and simply smiled as he said:
"That's perfect. You can sit down and prepare to deflate the Xiang family's arrogance."
Chen Le simply smiled and didn't say anything more.
Just then, an untimely voice rang out.
"Oh, isn't this General Manager Chen?"
Chen Le turned his head and saw Zheng Tianming walking towards him with a sneer on his face.
Behind him were several young people, including Xiang Xiatian.
Zheng Tianming walked up to Chen Le, sized him up, and then said with a sneer:
"Mr. Chen, you actually dare to come here? Is this a place for you to stay?"
Chen Le frowned, cursing inwardly, "What a small world!"
He glared at Zheng Tianming, then let out a cold laugh.
"I'm at least this year's box office dark horse, what, Mr. Zheng, do you think I'm not qualified?"
Chen Le's words made Zheng Tianming's face darken.
His lips twitched, and he wished he could strangle Chen Le.
If it weren't for Chen Le, he wouldn't have been warned by the Xiang family.
Xiang Xiatian would not harbor any resentment towards him.
All of this was caused by Chen Le.
Zheng Tianming took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said coldly:
"Keep smug. You just got lucky this time. Do you really think you're that capable?"
"This time, you will have no chance of winning against my 'Legend of Immortal Sealing'."
Zheng Tianming's words made Chen Le chuckle.
He glanced at Zheng Tianming indifferently, then shook his head.
"Mr. Zheng, you should worry about your own movie first."
"You don't need to worry about my movie."
Chen Le ignored Zheng Tianming and turned to leave.
Zheng Tianming's face turned ashen when Chen Le ignored him.
He clenched his fist, suppressing the anger in his heart.
Seeing this, a flash of anger crossed Xiang Xiatian's eyes.
At his own banquet, Chen Le dared to show him such disrespect.
