Chapter 166 Neighborly Greeting

Chen Linzhi was urged by Anastasia to record an album, but he never cared about it afterwards.

He only knew that his album had been on TV commercials, and the sales were not bad. He could occasionally hear his songs on the car radio.

It was just a hobby anyway, and Universal Music was too lazy to bother him. In any case, Chen Linzhi didn't show his face, and anyone could wear a lion headgear. It was tightly covered, and even his hands were not exposed. Actors were hired to take some posters and advertisements for promotion.

A female agent named Leia, who had just transferred to Universal Music not long ago, was assigned some resources, among which Chen Linzhi was the most "big-name". He never went to the company and never took the initiative to contact her.

Earlier, she suggested going to concerts and TV talk shows, but Chen Linzhi refused.

Today, when she came to Chen Linzhi's home, Leia finally understood why this singer, whose stage name was "Lion King", dared to be so unscrupulous. Many famous singers didn't have such luxurious homes. It was obvious that he didn't lack money and regarded singing as a pastime.

The check she brought tonight had a total amount of as much as $300,000, which meant that another 500,000 copies or so had been issued, and Chen Linzhi was given a 15% commission based on the retail price.

Chen Linzhi didn't know the specific situation and was too lazy to ask more questions.

Anyway, it would be useless to check, and it was difficult to find out how many copies were actually sold. He just regarded it as a windfall from the sky, and he took whatever people gave him, thinking that it was a big company anyway, and they shouldn't be too excessive.

Only then did he have the leisure to size up Leia.

The first time he met his agent face-to-face, Chen Linzhi wore a black shirt, leather shoes, and suit pants. He smiled calmly and said, "You are younger than I imagined. Although your voice sounded young on the phone, I didn't expect you to be so beautiful."

Most singers are unrestrained, and Leia is used to dealing with this group of people.

She smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment. I have seen your signing information before. There is no photo of you on it, so you are really Allen Chen, right? I heard the supervisor mention that you have a big business."

"It's okay. Tonight's party is mainly to celebrate me earning my first ten million U.S. dollars. With this check, it will be even more."

After Chen Linzhi finished speaking, he patted the pocket containing the check.

Recently, money seemed to be blown in by a strong wind, and he couldn't stop it. He couldn't help but show off, and also wanted to let Leia know that it was difficult to retreat, and to let him participate in some messy activities less.

Chen Linzhi had refused her many times, but this serious female agent still called tirelessly, asking Chen Linzhi to personally cooperate with some album promotion and sales activities, just like other singers.

When participating in activities, most of the time you have to sing live. You can't tell from the photos, but you will be exposed as soon as you open your mouth, so Chen Linzhi has to come forward in person.

After hearing this, Leia felt that Chen Linzhi was a jerk, but Chen Linzhi was serious, as if he was just stating the facts, which made her feel quite powerless. She continued to persuade him: "I have listened to all your songs. In fact, you have the strength to become a legendary singer. No new singer's album can surpass you this year. If you cooperate with me to participate in some talk shows, I am confident that I can hold a concert for you as soon as possible. At that time, the amount on the check may be ten times higher."

"But that's not my interest. Most of the songs I can sing are on the album. I can't write other good songs, so let me continue to be mysterious. The amount on the check has made me very satisfied. I don't need to do anything, and I can receive a check without delaying my business. How comfortable is that?"

Chen Linzhi didn't want to get entangled in this topic. He smiled and motioned to greet other guests, leaving Leia in place with a wine glass.

……

Yu Luoqi was gossiping with Fan Chen, talking about the recent news that a big shot was hunted down and died in a massage parlor.

Chen Linzhi walked over and joked to Fan Chen, "Young Master Fan, if you don't make up your mind, my company will become more valuable. How long are you going to consider it?"

Fan Chen already knew about Chen Linzhi's sudden wealth from speculating in foreign exchange. He spread his hands and said helplessly, "Anyway, from the beginning, you didn't count that money in the joint trade company's account. It doesn't matter to me how much you earn. I only care about the trade company's business. Give me a few more days. I haven't considered it yet."

Fan Chen was indeed stimulated, but now he has figured it out.

The reason is that Chen Linzhi had already said when they first discussed cooperation that the funds in the trade company's account could not all remain in the company. If they cooperated, he would take some away.

Therefore, the money earned from speculating in foreign exchange has nothing to do with whether Fan Chen invested as early as possible. It doesn't count as missing an opportunity to make money.

In fact, Fan Chen, who knows something about the foreign exchange futures market, has always felt that people who dare to venture into this market are crazy. The guys on Wall Street like to use their clients' money to "gamble", making a steady profit without losing money, but Chen Linzhi is using his own money to gamble on luck.

No matter how much money he earns, Fan Chen will not envy him. After all, there are countless examples of people who are temporarily successful and suffer heavy losses if they don't stop in time. If it was so easy to make money in the futures market, so many people wouldn't go bankrupt.

Yu Luoqi interjected, "You invited me over tonight with ulterior motives, right? I just heard Fan Chen say that you made money investing in the Japanese yen. Are you deliberately stimulating me?"

The reason why she said this was because Chen Linzhi had reminded her a few months ago that the Japanese yen would rise, but Yu Luoqi took it as a passing breeze and forgot about it after hearing it.

Chen Linzhi really had some calculations in this regard.

Seeing Yu Luoqi take the initiative to talk about this, he didn't hide it, and smiled brightly.

Looking at Miss Yu, Chen Linzhi shook his head, but said, "Where did you hear that? I just invited friends to get together. How dare I not invite you? I only earned five or six million U.S. dollars this time. You definitely don't like it, Captain Yu. My little tricks, I'm afraid you'll laugh at me if I say it."

It was clearly mocking her for not having foresight. Yu Luoqi heard it.

Giving Chen Linzhi a big eye roll, she noted this revenge first. She really didn't expect that Chen Linzhi would have this kind of vision.

She thought unconvincingly that maybe she had stepped on dog poop when she went out, so she had been so lucky recently. She hated it so much that her teeth itched, and then she began to consider taking the time to ask more questions to see if he had any other ways to make money.

You don't know the cost of living until you're in charge of the house. A large White Gang is divided into many factions. When there is money to be made, everyone is harmonious. When there is no money to be made, a group of old guys will slap the table and make sarcastic remarks.

Yu Luoqi was eager to prove herself, so as to avoid the disintegration of the family business left by her ancestors. The world is different from the early years, and more and more people are calling for a split and independent operation.

After regaining some face from Yu Luoqi's side, Chen Linzhi went to chat with Newman, Roger and others.

Newman had been staring at Yu Luoqi for a while. At this time, he asked, "Chen, who is the one wearing the red dress you were talking to? If possible, can you introduce me?"

"One of the most powerful women in Chinatown. Have you seen the movie 'The Godfather'? The old godfather is a joke in front of her. She has thousands of people under her command. Are you sure?"

As soon as Chen Linzhi finished speaking, Newman felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his expression was stiff: "You're joking, right? How is it possible for such a beautiful woman?"

"Why not? The few Asians in black suits beside her are all bodyguards. If you don't believe me, you can try it. I'll write your eulogy in advance."

Newman immediately withdrew his gaze and never mentioned asking him to introduce him again.

Chen Linzhi suddenly found Zhao Bailu standing there alone, seeming a little bored, so he took a glass of champagne and approached her…

Chen Linzhi was urged by Anastasia to record an album, but he never cared about it afterwards.
