ms" Jianxiu said, "This is just a small noodle shop. There's only one room that can seat six people. If you want to come over, I'll save it for you." 。The noodle shop is indeed "small," but since he h...To my surprise, things were settled as soon as the head of the Propaganda Department's Arts Bureau at the provincial committee took action. I was able to arrange a meeting with Director Li. 。For Xiao Zheng and the others, it's no longer a matter of whether they have time or not, but whether they can seize this opportunity. 。Xiao Zheng immediately said, "We can go now." 。"Fang Ya said: “I’ve sent you my contact information! If you have any questions, just give me a call.” 。Xiao Zheng said: "Good" 。Whether or not we can make a deal today, we'll still treat Director Fang to dinner tonight. 。"Fang Ya smiled and said, "Don't worry about the meal, you guys go talk first." 。After hanging up the phone, Fang Ya's text message came in shortly after. 。Xiao Zheng told the county party secretary, Sun Yiqi, about the situation. Sun Yiqi was also eager to meet Li Jie and said, "Then let's set off now." 。Xiao Zheng said to Sha Hai, "Tell Xiao Zhong to get ready, we're leaving right now." 。The car headed towards the hotel hidden among the green willows of West Lake. 。This hotel is called "Oasis" and it's only about twenty minutes away from the 1899 Hotel where Xiao Zheng and his companions stayed before. 。This hotel's hardware facilities aren't very superior, but the interior is very stylish. The hotel itself collects countless paintings, coffee pots, sofas, cabinets, clocks and other items from all over the world. 。Living inside, it's like living in a museum. 。It seems Li Jie's choice to live here makes sense. 。Xiao Zheng was on the phone with a woman when they entered the hall. Sure enough, a woman in plain clothes walked towards them and asked, "Are you Mr. Xiao and Mr. Sun"

This woman had an ordinary appearance and dressed plainly, just like an ordinary worker, very different from Bingying before. But she gave people a sense of reliability. 。Xiao Zheng said, "Yes, this is our county Party secretary..." Xiao Zheng introduced Sun Yiqi and Sha Hai. 。Then, the woman said: "Hello, I'm Li Dao's assistant. Li Dao is resting in the rest area, please follow me." 。The lounge area of this hotel is more like an open salon. 。Coffee is free, but self-service. 。In the window seat sofa, a middle-aged man stood up after seeing them, waiting for them to walk past. 。This man is about fifty years old. He wears a dark-colored suit, but it doesn't look new. He isn't wearing a white shirt under his jacket; instead, he has on a rather casual shirt. 。A few strands of gray were showing at the temples of his hair. 。Xiao Zheng once heard that gray hair, besides genetics, is closely related to kidney deficiency. 。I don't know what reason this man has. 。But his smile was kind, giving one a sense of that long-lost middle way. 。Yes, this person is the internationally renowned director Li Jie. 。Xiao Zheng had seen his photo online, and it should be him. 。In person, they look even better than in the photos. 。When they came closer, it was Li Jie who first reached out his hand to shake theirs. Then he politely said, "Please have a seat, Annie, and help yourself to some drinks from the vending machine." 。“Anne must be a nickname for his assistant.” 。The assistant agreed and went to pour them coffee and tea. 。Anne introduced each of the three people to Li Jie one by one. Li Jie listened attentively and repeated, "Sun Shuji, Xiao County Magistrate, and Mr. Sha Hai, I remember." 。Then, he smiled and said, “How did you know about me, and how did you know I was in Hangzhou”

Sun Yeqi said, “Director Li, we learned that you were in Hangzhou from a lady named Bingying.” 。"May I ask, are you very close with him"

Li Jie raised his eyes slightly, as if reminiscing about something, then he turned his head back and said: "I met him once at a cocktail party. We're not very familiar." 。Sun Yiqi and Xiao Zheng looked at each other, both feeling deceived. 。Sun Yike was even more certain that Yao Beixiang and Bingying's true purpose last night was to lure him into a trap. 。。Now he always flaunts that I'm his assistant director in front of others to swindle food, drinks and money. 。This person is beyond saving, I'm sure. I'll report him eventually, but that will have to wait until I get back to the US. He's an American citizen, and domestically they probably won't care about our personal grudge. 。That's true.

However, both Sun Yiqi and Xiao Zheng were shocked. They had actually met a scammer yesterday! Sun Yiqi thought that the five or six thousand yuan she spent last night was all gone. 。

Sun Yiqi was both angry and annoyed, and for a moment didn't know what to say next. 。But in Xiao Zheng's view, those things could be put aside for now. The most important thing at the moment was to discuss cooperation with Li Jie. 。Xiao Zheng chimed in: "Director Li, we heard you have a new film *Hidden Dragon Sword Rain* about to start shooting and are looking for the ideal outdoor filming location." 。Our Anxian county has a lot of advantages in terms of its mountains and water resources, especially bamboo resources, which are quite unique. We would like to invite Director Li to visit Anxian County. We will make all the necessary arrangements for his logistics and support. 。“

Sun Yiqi also said: “Director Li, our An County is currently taking the road of green water and green mountains. In our An County, there is a town called Tianhuang Town. After the mine was closed, it was restored with greenery. The mountains are clear and beautiful, and there is a large bamboo forest. Perhaps this is exactly the real scene you want! We sincerely want to cooperate with you. Director Li, if you have any requirements, just say so. As long as our county can do it, we will definitely meet your needs.” 。Both Xiao Zheng and Sun Yiqi showed their sincerity. 。Li Jie looked at them with a composed smile on his face: “Sun, Secretary and Xiao, County Head, I am very touched that you came all the way from the county to express your intention to cooperate with me.” 。If I had come a day earlier, I should have gone to Anxian to see the bamboo forest you mentioned. 。However, just last night, I also received a partner who came all the way from Sichuan Province. They are known for breeding pandas and have abundant bamboo resources there. 。They also showed me a lot of pictures and videos of bamboo forests. 。So far, it's meeting my expectations. 。So, I've reached a preliminary agreement with them. Tomorrow morning, I'll head to Sichuan province. 。"Last night, who did you receive At that time, Sun Yiqi was drinking with that swindler Mark, wasting a whole evening! If they could have met Director Li yesterday afternoon, they would probably be ahead of the people from Sichuan province! In that case, this opportunity would probably belong to An County!" 。Sun Yiqi wanted to try again, saying: "Director Li, maybe your schedule could be pushed back by a day. First, go to our An County for a visit, and then go to Sichuan Province. It would only take an extra day." 。Director Li politely declined: “Thank you for the invitation, Secretary Sun. As you know, people like us are very busy and our schedules are packed.” 。"A day is precious to us too..."

Xiao Zheng didn't wait for Li Dao to finish speaking before saying, "Li Dao, you probably won't believe this..." 。Your film works are very popular in our county. 。"Director Li paused slightly and said, "Really" But from his eyes, Director Li didn't seem to believe it. 。Xiao Zheng gave a look to Sha Hai beside him, then said to Li Jie: "Director Li, this is Sha Hai. He's an ordinary cadre from our small town in the mountains. But he really likes your films." 。”.'" 。I want to drink too. 。"Two men who were already about eight or nine points drunk walked over, took the wine glasses from Zhou Muyun's hands, and first drank half a glass. Bao Zong looked up and n...
