Rebirth of the sky-high broker

Chapter 104

They arrived, just in time.Li Jin got out of the car at the shelter and went to the birthday banquet by himself.After all, his relationship with Li Yiheng has not been made public, and it would be too conspicuous for Da Lala to go in Mr. Li's car.

The reception was held in Mu Lao's villa, and when Li Jin entered, the atmosphere was already buzzing with wine and wine.After the draft, Qin Yige left the company and went to the United States. In his own words, he felt that he still had many shortcomings and needed to make up lessons.In this way, the company was completely lost to Bei Fuming, and Li Jin naturally became the No. [-] person in Yige Company in the eyes of everyone.

What's more, when he was Li Yiheng's special assistant, he often followed him to charge in various receptions, and everyone still gave him old face.In this way, Li Jin played both sides in the reception, and the champagne glasses were raised frequently, which seemed to be a heartthrob.

The emotional connection is almost the same, but none of the real heavyweights is there.Li Jin knew that those important figures would not show up until the beginning of the show. He had a limited capacity for drinking, so he must not get drunk if he didn't get into the topic, so he found an excuse to go to the balcony to have a blast.As soon as he opened the glass door, he found that there was already a person standing there.

The other party was in his early twenties, wearing a snow-white suit, like a playboy on the Broadway stage.The face looks like a doll, with big eyes and long eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and a very innocent smile.

For some reason, Li Jin looked at his smile and inexplicably thought of the naive second young master of the He family.

Drunkenness rushed forward in an instant, he smiled stiffly, said "sorry" and was about to retreat into the room.But the other party suddenly stopped him and said, "The room is very stuffy, why are you in a hurry to go back and laugh with me?"

With just this sentence, Li Jin sensed a trace of aura that was completely opposite to that of the second young master of the He family, so he stopped in his tracks, turned his head and simply replied, "That's fine."

The sound insulation of the terrace is not very good, but it is still quieter.The man seemed to have stayed here for a long time, and his clothes looked cold, but he had no intention of going back at all.After smoking one cigarette, he lit another, handed the case to Li Jin, and asked, "One?"

Li Jin thanked them, took out one, took out a lighter and lit it for the two of them, and took a deep breath.

The smoke went down a lot.

"If you smoke like this, you will get lung cancer." The man said.

"It doesn't matter." Luo Fei also ran against him in the same way, so Li Jin went back unchanged, "I will die from overwork before I have lung cancer."

After he finished speaking, he was stunned—this person in front of him was a complete stranger, if he was someone who could not afford to offend, such an answer would be too aggressive.

The man raised his eyebrows, but he smiled without hesitation: "Well said, I often feel the same way after returning to China. People in China are on the road every day, but few people can explain clearly what they are busy with. For example, just now, everyone in the venue was smiling, as if they were the ones celebrating their birthday today, are they happy? Only they know. Looking at them, I feel that life is really tiring."

Li Jin didn't expect that his simple words would arouse this person's outburst of emotion. He thought that this person was either innocent or stupid, and moreover, simple is equal to stupid these days, so he asked tentatively, "Excuse me, were you in...a foreign country before?"

"Don't be so unfamiliar, my name is Tim." He said, "I've been studying movies at CalArts before."

"Li Jin, from Yige Company..." Li Jin stretched out his hand, but was interrupted when he was about to introduce himself.

"I know, you are the chief manager of Yige Company. One of my seniors once introduced you to me, saying that you...are very experienced." Tim stretched out his hand, but looked at him suspiciously, as if he hadn't expected , the words "very experienced" will be used on a young man who seems to be in his early twenties, "My job is a film director, but I haven't made a film in China, so you probably don't know me."

So far, Li Jin already knew that the returnee's way of speaking was so direct.Not needing to beat around the bush and add compliments made him feel relieved, and chatted about the topic: "Then you should return to China soon, right? Is the domestic film market completely different from Hollywood?"

Tim nodded: "The biggest thing I feel about domestic movies is that the typology is very bad. Few movies follow the mature narrative style of genre movies..."

As soon as the conversation started, the man talked eloquently.His Mandarin is fairly standard, but he often encounters expression barriers and has to use English to help explain his meaning.Li Jin lit a cigarette to the end, and was already very impatient to hear his high-spirited talk, so he interrupted politely: "Then, have you thought about changing the status quo?"

"It's very difficult for me to change the status quo." Tim flattened his mouth.

Li Jin snorted coldly in his heart, thinking who wouldn't be able to boast, but would shrivel up when it comes to practical issues, what's the difference with those so-called big names in movies.

"But I can be the first person to try." Tim suddenly said, "The research direction of my graduation thesis is the future breakthrough of domestic films, and I made a small attempt through my graduation work, and I have achieved some results. "

"What grade?" Li Jin asked.

Speaking of achievements, Tim shyly curled a small lock of hair on his forehead: "It was in the middle of the year that my work won the New Director Award at the Madison Film Festival..."

"Tim Mok?" Li Jin was shocked, "Are you Tim Mok? You won an international A-level film festival award at the age of 23, the youngest domestic director to receive an international award?"

Tim is even more shy: "That's right... But in fact, it is not difficult to win international awards. Our school has alumni who win international awards every year. Compared with them, what am I?"

In terms of the status of CalArts graduates in the film industry, it is really nothing to win several international awards every year, but Tim is only a Chinese student studying abroad, and the award-winning films are Chinese themes. It is difficult to imagine the difficulty of graduation works.

In the past six months, the film market has been sluggish, and there have been many bad movies. Tim's award can be regarded as a booster, which makes people see the hope of the future of the Chinese film industry.But even though he was famous, he never said a single word in any media, and even had only a blurry photo, so Li Jin didn't recognize him at all.

"When did you return to China?" Li Jin frowned, "How long do you plan to stay?"

Tim scratched his hair: "I'll just stay here forever." After a pause, he smiled, "And to be honest, I don't think the graduation work is authentic enough. I plan to spend a little longer in China... and try to shoot more local photos. Transformed works."

He seemed very uncomfortable when he said the word "mixed". Li Jin and him smiled tacitly and asked, "Is there any suitable script at present?"

"Yes, but immature." Tim said, "I..."

There was a sudden silence in the room.

The silence came so suddenly, as if for a moment, everyone in the room stopped talking, so the jazz music that was originally in the background became very clear.

Li Jin and Tim followed everyone's gaze. At the door was Li Yiheng in a dark blue suit with a warm smile.Between his elbows, a white and delicate hand was gently held.Looking aside along that wrist, the beautiful woman in full dress is wearing a light pink dress and long skirt, and the just-right light makeup makes her even more glamorous, and she can't compare with all the beauties in the field.
