Mission Flow - Vol 2 Chapter 207
After Jia Zihao called, he sat up to pick up their Mercedes-Benz commercial car. He called a friend to borrow the car. The big boss with a net worth of over 100 million still has the name. He explained to Zhang Guoshi, Pang Liwei, Wu Jing, and Yu Qian, “Mr. Cao is at the Ying Mansion over in Huangpu. Let’s go over and have a chat first.”
The “Ying Mansion” on Fengyang Road is still well-known in the film and television circle. This kind of old garden house is the prototype in many film and television dramas.
The highest-ranking Zhang Guoshi said with a wrinkled face: “Okay!”
The group drove to Ying Mansion.
…
…
Ying Mansion was built in 1918 and was designed by Tonghe Yanghang. A total of four floors, the size of five bays. It has garden residences with more than 30 halls, reception rooms and bedrooms. At that time, the construction cost was about 100,000 taels of silver, and it took three years.
Previously, the surrounding area was protected when it was demolished in pieces, and it belongs to the list of immovable cultural relics in the national cultural relics census. After the surrounding new buildings are built, a courtyard area is formed around, and the orientation of this old house is not facing the road. It can be said to be quiet.
Cao Su accompanied Lin Shuman to take pictures upstairs and downstairs, looking for the beauty of the scenery.
The height of the first floor is 4.5 meters and the rest of the floors are 3.75 meters. This makes the layout of the whole house extraordinarily transparent.
What’s more, the architectural style of each floor is not consistent.
The colonnade on the first floor is an ancient Roman style Tuscan column. The second and third floors are the Ionic double colonnade in ancient Greek style. The internal staircase is strongly baroque and floating. Some areas have a neoclassical style.
Of course, in general, the overall style of the house is an imitation of the Baroque style of the European Renaissance. Quite luxurious and sturdy, it is a work of art.
Of course Cao Su didn’t know any architectural style, and Zheng Qirong, who knew everything, was negotiating the price on the first floor. He and the bright-eyed Lin Shuman took pictures everywhere, and from time to time they would get together to discuss the photos. Zheng Xue didn’t bother the two after that.
In fact, Cao Su and Lin Shuman knew that they touched each other inadvertently, but now it’s winter, both of them are wearing thick winter clothes, and there is no strong feeling of skin-to-skin blind date. They are just enjoying the vague ambiguity between them.
When they were discussing a photo on the third floor together, the two phones in their pockets rang at the same time.
“It’s such a coincidence?” Lin Shuman smiled very nicely, her beautiful big eyes like a crescent moon, and a pair of dark eyes like clear springs, looking at Cao Su’s handsome face.
Cao Su had already taken out his hand, saw the phone number on it, smiled and made a gesture: “Shuman, you answer first.”
In the early morning of contact, he had already changed his name, but Lin Shuman did not correct it and acquiesced to the name among friends.
Lin Shuman took out her mobile phone from her pocket, looked at the number, hung up, and said, “Uncle, answer the phone!”
Zheng Xue, who was in the corridor on the third floor, was a little speechless looking at the two of them. Speaking of which, the mansion is so big, isn’t there enough space for two people to answer the phone? Don’t you even want to be separated for a while?
Seeing that Lin Shuman had hung up, Cao Su answered the phone in front of her. A nice female voice came from the phone, in Mandarin with a Cantonese accent, “Cao Sheng, hello! I’m Annie, your personal financial advisor at Citibank, and I noticed that you transferred US$100 million to In the account opened by our bank. Do you want to continue to use this fund to operate in the U.S. stock market?”
“Yes.” Cao Su said lightly. After he got 200 million US dollars, he immediately transferred 100 million US dollars to the US stock account that Sun Xiuling helped him manage. This account operation strategy is determined by him. Sun Xiuling just performed. She doesn’t understand stocks. It’s just that because of the distance and time difference, his current frequency of operations is in the mid-term.
Annie smiled and said, “Cao Sheng, I wonder if I have the honor to help you manage your investment? I graduated from Harvard University and have experience working in a Wall Street investment bank…”
“Annie, I’m sorry! I’ll do it myself! I’m busy, I’ll talk again when I have time.” Cao Su has no time to listen to this Annie’s nonsense. In fact, this is a Malay from Southeast Asia. He opened an account with Citibank on Hong Kong Island before and had a long-distance video chat. This guy looks average and has great abilities. But this time he is accompanying the beautiful Lin Shuman, how can he have time to socialize?
When Lin Shuman saw Cao Su hang up the phone, the corners of her mouth raised slightly. This is a smile that means growth.
Cao Su explained: “Shuman, this Annie is my personal assistant at Citibank. She wants to try to help me manage my investments. Don’t get me wrong.”
Lin Shuman covered her emotions and said, “What did I misunderstand her? Uncle, you should actually think that after hearing your call, I suspect you are bragging in front of me.” Blink, he smiled playfully.
Cao Su felt itchy when he saw it, saying that he hasn’t had a girl in his heart for a long time! He knew what she meant by that.
Opening and shutting $100 million is a bit like Kanye. After all, according to his external news, the biggest net worth is the live broadcast of Dragon Ball, which is valued at 100 million US dollars. Now the phone says he has a $100 million transfer. Anyone who hears it will be suspicious.
But looking at Lin Shuman’s meaning, she doesn’t seem to be too lazy to talk about this topic. Yes, this girl is actually not that sensitive and valued about money.
Cao Su knew what to do, put the phone in his pocket, and said with a smile, “Shuman, have you seen the way most boys chase girls?”
Lin Shuman couldn’t help laughing, gentle and sunny, with a little arrogance, and said, “Yes.”
The two were chatting in the corridor on the fourth floor when they saw Jia Zihao walking down the alley with several familiar faces.
“Shuman, my subordinate has brought guests here. Let’s go down together!” Cao Su invited.
Lin Shuman nodded.
On the third floor, Zheng Xue joined him in the lobby on the first floor. Zheng Qirong was taking the initiative to chat with Jia Zihao. Seeing this, he stepped aside and continued chatting with Ms. Wang’s agent.
Jia Zihao first introduced Cao Su to Zhang Guoshi, Pang Liwei, Wu Jing, and Yu Qian, “This is our President Cao! Dragon Ball Live, Qianyuan Culture, and Cactus Company are all his industries.” Then he smiled and introduced several people in turn: “Cao Cao In general, this is Director Zhang, this is…”
Zhang Guoshi smiled with a wrinkled face, shook hands with Cao Su, and said with a little compliment: “Mr. Cao is very young! This is even better than Wanda’s acquisition of Legendary Pictures. The morale of our domestic film and television industry.”
“Mr. Cao, hello!” Wu Jing finished filming “Wolf Warrior” in Jinling in September last year, which has not yet been released. He was thinking about making “Wolf Warrior 2”, so he met investors everywhere. It is also a pre-mixed face.
Uncle Yu was even more calm, and the scene was decent. He chatted with Cao Su a few words with a smile, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Cao Su didn’t say anything to the fans. He really likes Uncle Yu’s cross talk, and Wu Jing’s fight against the wolf is very exciting. As for Zhang Guoshi, everyone knows that. But people are in the rivers and lakes, how can they come to the door for no reason?
Jia Zihao said: “Mr. Cao, I have reserved a place in a private kitchen in Huangpu, how about we eat and chat?”
Cao Su happily agreed, wanting to give face to his younger brother: “Okay. Lao Jia, you arrange to guide Zhang and them to go there first, and my friend and I have a few words.”
The group went out.
In an instant, the hall on the first floor was empty. Zheng Xue couldn’t bear it any longer, and screamed in a high-pitched voice: “Brother Cao, ah…! You are amazing!” She is a third-year student of the Magic Capital Academy of Drama! How can you not be excited when you see Zhang Guoshi? There are also senior actors like Wu Jing.
Cao Su smiled and asked Lin Shuman, a beautiful orchid-like beauty in the empty valley: “Shuman, I’ll invite you to dinner at noon? Calling you out to take pictures, and sending you back without entertaining you is a shame.”
Lin Shuman shook her head, “Uncle, go ahead. I don’t like to participate in such dinners.”
Zheng Xue directly hugged Lin Shuman and shook, “Shuman, my good Shuman, agree to it for my sake!”
Lin Shuman couldn’t help laughing~www.mtlnovel.com~ Cao Su helped her out of the siege with empathy. In fact, he was more understanding of people’s clothes, coughing, “Zheng Xue, why don’t you go to this dinner with me. If Shuman doesn’t want to participate, just not going.”
“Brother Cao, thank you!” Zheng Xue thanked him gratefully.
Cao Su laughed. He understood the difficulty of a young actor and said, “Follow Jia Zihao’s car. I’ll take Shuman home first.”
“Oh…” Zheng Xue sighed unspeakably and turned to leave first. It is said that Brother Cao has a very personality, so many people, such as big directors and big actors, he actually had to go to see Shuman first. This is really…the essence of chasing girls!
Lin Shuman understood in his heart, and felt a little unspeakable. The funny Bai Caosu glanced at him, carrying a backpack with a DSLR, and refused: “Uncle, go with your own business. I’ll take a taxi back by myself.”
“I insist!” Cao Su felt that the dinner was important only when he was stupid. He said hello to Zheng Qirong and walked out of the hall with Lin Shuman. There are five parking spaces at the door. Greeting Lin Shuman to sit in the black Rolls-Royce Phantom, start the car, and take her back to the community next to Putuo East China Normal University.
