Chapter 91: Xu Ke's Favor

Wen Yongshan went to the restroom, and Qi Yuntian walked over with a glass of cocktail and sat in the seat Wen Yongshan had just vacated.

Regarding Wen Yongshan, he didn't even ask a word and said directly: "Those French people are really generous. They offered me 300,000 US dollars at the beginning. I added to 600,000, and finally negotiated 500,000. How about it, let's celebrate tomorrow?"

It should indeed be celebrated.

Even in the previous life, this number was definitely not small. According to the current exchange rate, it was 4 million RMB.

Before this, the most he received was a red envelope from Zhang Yiyi, 100. Now it jumped four times to 400. Sure enough, making money by acting is really fast.

Damn, the feeling of making money is really cool, it's completely different from being a rich second generation. Sooner or later, I will tell Old Chen that I am the rich first generation. He doesn't count for anything.

Chen Nuo suppressed his excitement: "No need for tomorrow, after eating, Wen Yongshan said she would invite us to Lan Kwai Fong to play."

Qi Yuntian paused and said: "Today? No, we have to go to Brother Zhiwei's party later. They rented a cruise ship today and invited many people, specifically to entertain those ghosts. I want to mix in and see if there is a chance."

Chen Nuo thought about it, then just take Wen Yongshan to the yacht party.

Because he found this girl quite simple. She just honestly said she was found to accompany him to eat when he asked a little bit. Moreover, this girl really accompanied him to chat, and when there is a chance, he will help if he can.

After Wen Yongshan said her best friend also wanted to come, Chen Nuo agreed quite readily, but he didn't expect it to be this one.

At first sight, he almost didn't recognize her.

Because this Angel Baby's makeup and hairstyle were all the spicy girl style from Japan, which looked very stinging to the eyes.

However, she wore a white miniskirt that highlighted her figure. The skirt hem wasn't as short as Wen Yongshan's, but she couldn't help it that her bare legs without stockings were really eye-catching.

Chen Nuo always believed that a woman's legs shouldn't be too thin, because being long and thin would look like matchsticks, and they shouldn't be too fat, because being too fat would look thick.

Yang Ying's pair of legs was exactly the leg shape Chen Nuo thought was just right. Adding one point would be fat, and reducing one point would be thin. It couldn't be said to be perfect, but it could only be said that it was reasonable for the leader to be obsessed with this woman.

Yang Ying took the initiative to reach out and said very generously: "Brother Nuo, I am baby, nice to meet you, please take care of me."

Her Mandarin was much better than Wen Yongshan's, and she was also more generous. When Chen Nuo looked at her, she didn't show stage fright at all, but instead held her chest high.

Chen Nuo smiled politely: "Hello, baby." He reached out and shook hands with her.

Unexpectedly, his palm was hooked at this moment.

Damn, this person doesn't seem to be an adult yet, right? So fierce? Chen Nuo was taken aback. Sure enough, among these stars who made a name for themselves in later life, there wasn't a simple one.

He looked at Wen Yongshan as if nothing had happened, and seeing her ignorant look, he suddenly realized in his heart. No wonder he didn't know Yang Ying had such a best friend in his previous life. These two girls, one innocent and simple, one scheming and deep, it was only a matter of time before they fell out.

When Chen Nuo walked on the cruise ship rented by Ceng Zhiwei and the others with Wen Yongshan on the left and Yang Ying on the right, preparing to cruise Victoria Harbour at night, no one looked at him more. Because every man on the scene had two or three girls surrounding him.

Wen Yongshan and Yang Ying were both here for the first time. At first, the two girls were a bit stage-frightened, like little birds, following wherever Chen Nuo went.

When seeing Chen Nuo chatting with those ghosts in fluent and proficient English, Yang Ying was taken aback and whispered to Wen Yongshan behind: "Isn't he from the mainland? How is his English so good?"

"I don't know, I only know he is 19 years old this year, a little bit older than us. Moreover, he is this year's Berlin Film Festival Best Actor." Wen Yongshan said with a complicated tone.

This was told to her by Fenny sister.

When she received Fenny sister's call asking about the situation, Wen Yongshan said Chen Nuo's name, and Fenny sister told her all the news about this boy within 5 minutes.

If she had watched *If Love*, she would definitely have recognized him at first sight.

Because even in Hong Kong, this issue of Apple Weekly rated him as one of the top ten sexiest male actors of 2005, and he was the biggest discovery of countless young women at the end of 05.

*The Mute's House*, *If Love*, and a TV series in the mainland, the works this boy filmed were actually not many, but he was about to be Wong Kar-wai's male lead.

At this time, he wasn't even 20 years old.

Wen Yongshan didn't know if there was any newcomer actor who climbed faster than him.

Wen Yongshan waited for a while and didn't wait for Yang Ying's answer, so she couldn't help but turn her head to look, only to see her staring over there with flickering eyes, not knowing what she was thinking. Wen Yongshan's heart moved slightly and asked: "You came to the party today, did you tell William? Will he look for you?"

"No, he has so many girls accompanying him every day, how could he still remember me?"

"You should still call him, after all, you two are still dating."

"Don't worry about it. Okay, don't talk, Nuo Zai is coming over."

Chen Nuo had attended countless parties in his previous life. As soon as he got on the boat, he was greeted by Ceng Zhiwei. After that, he said human words to humans and ghost words to ghosts. After chatting with a group of Hong Kong film circle big shots, he chatted with those ghosts again. It was hard to come to an end, and he said excuse me.

As soon as Chen Nuo turned his head, he saw Wen Yongshan and Yang Ying standing not far away, seemingly talking about something.

He also knew the purpose of the two coming, and after walking over, he said quite thoughtfully: "Do you want to go and chat with others?"

Wen Yongshan hadn't spoken yet, and Yang Ying immediately replied: "We are your female companions, wouldn't it be not so good?"

Where is it not so good, I see your feet are already walking, okay? Chen Nuo smiled: "It's okay. You can just treat it as accompanying a friend to play."

Yang Ying hesitated. This was originally the main reason she came over tonight. This man in front of her couldn't give her any opportunities in the short term, so it was better for her to recognize others first, and then come back to find him later.

Yang Ying nodded and agreed, then walked towards the power world of men with the steps of a newborn calf not afraid of a tiger, holding a glass of cocktail.

This girl was very confident in her appearance and figure. Since she was a child, she had lived in praise and envy.

Although she loved her current boyfriend very much, he couldn't give her the career she wanted, so after she came back from Japan, she was actually hesitating. And today, on this boat, she finally made up her mind. She wanted to continue walking forward, walking to the other shore where she could achieve fame and success, and never look back.

Yang Ying went, and Chen Nuo saw Wen Yongshan standing still, so he couldn't help but ask: "Don't you go find someone to chat with?" Wen Yongshan shook her head and said in non-standard Mandarin: "I won't go, Fenny sister told me to accompany you today."

Chen Nuo looked left and right and said: "Then... let's find a place to sit."

The two found a sofa on the edge of the boat and sat down.

Chen Nuo had been to Victoria Harbour many times in his previous life, and he was already tired of the night view. On the contrary, Wen Yongshan looked at the lights on both sides of the strait, somewhat fascinated.

It's just that her clothes were okay during the day, but at night, the temperature was at most 10 degrees or so. Chen Nuo saw her hugging her arms and shivering, so he took off his casual suit and put it on her.

Wen Yongshan was originally staring at the shining Bank of China Tower on the other side, and suddenly felt an extra layer of clothes on her body, and the cold wind at night was blocked outside all at once.

She turned her head in surprise and saw Chen Nuo was left with only a white shirt, casually eating the fruit on the table.

Wen Yongshan hadn't spoken yet, and Chen Nuo said: "Don't thank me, I am a Sichuan person. If I don't do this, the girls in our place will scold people, and they will scold very ugly, and will scold you to remember to talk about gentlemanly demeanor in your next life."

Wen Yongshan saw him say it as if it were true, pursed her lips and smiled, her autumn-water-like eyes were brighter than the full moon in the sky, "Are you from Sichuan? I heard there are many giant pandas there, is it true?"

Chen Nuo remembered the jokes circulating on the internet in his later life and laughed, saying: "Really, every household in our place raises one. Next time you have a chance to come to Sichuan, I will give you a baby panda."

Wen Yongshan was not stupid, she saw that Chen Nuo was joking. But she didn't laugh, instead looked at him seriously and said: "You say so, I might really go one day."

Chen Nuo also looked at her eyes, only to see the night view of Victoria reflected in her eyes, as if filled with starlight. Her upturned lip tips were trembling slightly, as if waiting for something.

The boat was brightly lit and noisy, and the men and women coming and going were all dressed in fine clothes. Qi Yuntian was holding a red wine glass, chatting with a golden-haired and blue-eyed man with a look of surprise, and suddenly caught a glimpse of this scene not far away.

He paused, immediately turned his gaze away, and pretended not to see it.

Facing Chen Nuo's gaze, Wen Yongshan felt her heart pounding, jumping faster and faster. She was eighteen years old this year and had dated before. At that time, she thought she already understood a lot.

But at this moment, she clearly felt something budding in her heart.

"Nuo Zai, why are you sitting here, not going over to chat with everyone?"

Suddenly, a hoarse voice came from the side, and a tall, thin, middle-aged man with a goatee walked over with a glass of whiskey.

Chen Nuo returned from the starlight to the noisy cruise ship in reality all at once. He stood up and smiled as if nothing had happened: "Xu Dao, I am chatting with friends here. This is my friend, Wen Yongshan. Yongshan, this is Xu Dao Ke. You should know him."

Wen Yongshan hurriedly stood up with Chen Nuo's coat on, bowed slightly nervously, and said in Mandarin: "Xu Dao, hello."

Xu Ke looked at Wen Yongshan, "Hong Konger?"

Wen Yongshan said in a panic: "Yes, I am a Hong Konger."

"Oh~" Xu Ke laughed strangely, looked at Chen Nuo again, and said: "Sorry, sorry, it seems I shouldn't have come."

Chen Nuo grabbed him and smiled: "Since you're here, sit down and chat. Any new drama recently?"

Among the actors and directors on this boat, Xu Ke's Mandarin was at least in the top three, so whether it was during dinner or when he just got on the boat, Chen Nuo's communication with Xu Ke was the most.

Moreover, Xu Ke was straightforward, and his temper was quite to his taste. After three or four exchanges, the old and the young were quite congenial, and there was a feeling of meeting like old friends.

At this moment, Chen Nuo grabbed his sleeve familiarly, Xu Ke didn't move at all, but laughed and said: "Nuo Zai, you tell me first who you are asking for?"

Chen Nuo said as a matter of course: "Asking for both of us."

Xu Ke said: "Wong Kar-wai has to ask you for availability to film a drama, do you think I don't know? You are studying so far away in Jingcheng, I don't even dare to think you will come to my drama. However, I do have a drama that is about to be filmed immediately. If you agree to come and guest star when the time comes, there is a role in this drama that is quite suitable for this young lady."

Hearing this, Wen Yongshan's heart almost jumped out of her throat. Her two delicate hands didn't know where to put, so she had to grab the skirt tightly, feeling like she was about to squeeze water out.

Last year, when filming Leo Ku's MV, she thought about what her debut on the big screen would be like in the future. If she could go to a youth idol film filmed by a small director to guest star and say a few lines, that would already be very good. If there were no lines, having a front-facing shot would also be considered not bad.

Wen Yongshan never expected that she could hear such a clear invitation from a big director like Xu Ke, and, judging by Xu Ke's tone, that role was definitely not a guest star!

She really wanted to speak, wanting to say that if she really let her participate, she would definitely put in 120% effort to act this role well.

However, Xu Ke didn't look at her at all. He just looked at Chen Nuo with a smile.

Chen Nuo naturally understood Xu Ke's meaning. Taking out a role that was not too big or too small, wanting him to remember this favor.

Guest starring or something, that was just an excuse.

However, owing a favor to someone like Xu Ke was definitely not a bad thing for him. The friendship between people is like this, owing and returning, returning and owing.

Moreover, this silly girl Wen Yongshan, guarding him all night, estimated that she wouldn't get any benefits, and he originally wanted to help her out.

"Then it's a deal." Just then, a waiter passed by with a glass of wine, he reached out and took it, looked up, and drank it in one gulp.

Immediately, a pungent spiciness rushed straight to his throat, making him cough uncontrollably.

Damn, how much vodka did this add?

Chen Nuo said while coughing: "Cough, Xu Dao, when you want me to come, cough, just tell me one week in advance."

Xu Ke laughed loudly: "Nuo Zai, I just like people who are as straightforward as you. Beautiful girl, you call your agent to contact my company tomorrow."

Wen Yongshan patted Chen Nuo's back lightly. Hearing Xu Ke's words, she suppressed the excitement in her heart and nodded, saying: "Good, thank you, thank you director." There was a heat flow bumping around in her body, but she couldn't find an exit, making her feel very uncomfortable.

Xu Ke looked at Chen Nuo's face and suddenly laughed, saying in Cantonese: "Don't thank me, if you want to thank, thank Nuo Zai well. Beautiful girl, take good care of him, lest others see it and blame me for pouring wine for children. It has nothing to do with me, this is what he drank himself."
