Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk! - Chapter 84

Chapter 84: Chapter 84: The Wrap-up Ceremony
This day.

Xu Yang visited the company and entered Xiao Dongsheng’s office.

Xu Yang asked, “Old Xiao, how is the contact with Douyin going?”

Previously, he had tasked Xiao Dongsheng with reaching out to Douyin to conduct a live-streaming sales pilot.

This could be very profitable if done well, so he needed to inquire about it.

Xiao Dongsheng said, “President Xu, I was just about to report to you today. Douyin will soon launch a live-streaming sales feature, which has already been internally tested. President Li Liangping from Douyin mentioned he will visit our company tomorrow and hopes to meet you. If all goes well, both parties can cooperate, and our guild can become a pilot guild for live-streaming sales.”

Xu Yang replied happily, “That’s great, I will meet with Li Liangping together with you tomorrow.”

Afterward, Xu Yang discussed some guild matters with Xiao Dongsheng and then left.

He then strolled around Jiangbailao, checked the situation there, and went home.

Upon returning home, the phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, it was Wu Jing calling.

“Director Wu,” Xu Yang answered the phone.

“President Xu, our ‘War Leopard’ will wrap up the day after tomorrow, and a completion ceremony will be held at Haicheng Grand Hotel. The main creative team and investors will all attend. Do you have time to join us?” Wu Jing said.

The last few scenes were filmed in Haicheng, and the completion ceremony was scheduled at Haicheng Grand Hotel.

“It’s wrapping up so soon?” Xu Yang said, somewhat surprised as it didn’t seem that long ago.

“Once we received your investment, we immediately put the whip to the horse and poured into the subsequent shooting. It’s not too fast,” Wu Jing said with a laugh.

“The day after tomorrow, right? No problem, I’ll be there,” Xu Yang thought for a moment. Since he had nothing else to do, he decided to attend.

He had never attended such an event before; participating to broaden his horizons wouldn’t hurt.

“Great, the completion ceremony starts at ten o’clock in the morning,” Wu Jing said happily.

He was hoping Xu Yang would attend, as without his 20 million investment, ‘War Leopard’ would not have been possible.

The significance of Xu Yang as an investor went without saying.

Moreover, other investors were also interested in meeting Xu Yang.

After all, a person who could invest 20 million was not simple.

All being investors, getting to know Xu Yang could only be beneficial, not detrimental.

Networking comes this way.

“The day after tomorrow is Saturday, I’ll ask my wife if she’s free. I can take her with me, that’s alright, isn’t it?” Xu Yang asked.

He hadn’t taken Zhao Yuxin on an out-of-town trip yet, and this was a good opportunity to visit Haicheng and consider it a weekend getaway.

“Of course, that’s fine. My wife will also be there, and they could chat,” Wu Jing said.

“Alright, see you then,” Xu Yang nodded and hung up the phone.

Before long, Zhao Yuxin returned home from work.

While cooking together, Xu Yang mentioned the event to Zhao Yuxin and asked, “You’re not on duty this Saturday, are you?”

Zhao Yulu replied with a smile, “No, we’ll go together; it will be like a little vacation.”

She was also curious about such activities, and attending would be a good opportunity to gain some insight.

…

In the blink of an eye, a night passed.

Xu Yang and Xiao Dongsheng welcomed Douyin’s President Li Liangping at the company.

Li Liangping was a very refined-looking middle-aged man who didn’t seem like a business president at all but more like a university professor.

Upon meeting, Xiao Dongsheng introduced, “President Li, this is our President Xu.”

“President Xu, hello, I’m very pleased to meet you,” Li Liangping extended his hand to Xu Yang proactively.

Truth be told, Li Liangping was somewhat surprised to see Xu Yang.

Xu Yang was much younger than he had expected.

“President Li, hello, welcome to our company for a visit,” Xu Yang shook hands with Li Liangping.

After some brief pleasantries, they proceeded inside.

Once in the conference room, Li Liangping listened to Xiao Dongsheng’s detailed introduction of the company.

The introduction included the situation with the hosts, the operation of the company, and the company’s philosophy, among other things.

Following the introduction, Li Liangping nodded frequently, expressing great satisfaction.

Next was a tour of the company.

Li Liangping was very satisfied with the work status of the live streamers and the logistics staff.

The product list for the live sales was approved by Li Liangping after Xiao Dongsheng had him review it.

In the end, they returned to the conference room.

The two parties signed a contract, with Fengcai Guild acting as the pilot guild for live sales.

The pilot period for live sales was set to start at 10 a.m. on New Year’s Day.

After everything was settled, Xu Yang and Xiao Dongsheng had lunch with Li Liangping before he left.

…

Saturday.

After breakfast, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin drove to Haicheng.

Haicheng wasn’t far from Jiangcheng; it was just an hour’s drive away.

They set off at eight and arrived in Haicheng at nine.

At nine forty-five, they reached the Haicheng Grand Hotel.

Upon entering the hotel lobby, they saw the sign for the completion ceremony of “War Leopard”.

Following the signs, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin arrived at one of the halls, hand in hand.

Inside, they saw quite a few people.

The only ones Xu Yang was familiar with were Wu Jing and Han Yanghui.

Wu Jing saw Xu Yang and immediately came over with his wife to greet him.

After the two women were briefly introduced, Wu Jing’s wife, Xie Bei, who was quite skilled in interacting with others, quickly became acquainted with Zhao Yuxin.

“Mr. Xu, let’s go over there. I’ll introduce you to some of the other investors,” Wu Jing said.

Wu Jing led Xu Yang over to meet several investors.

As for Zhao Yuxin, naturally, Xie Bei took her to the area where the ladies had gathered.

“This is Mr. Xu, the biggest investor of ‘Zhan Bao’,” Wu Jing introduced Xu Yang to the other investors.

Everyone assessed Xu Yang with friendly smiles.

To them, Xu Yang being so young and having invested twenty million meant he was certainly a rich second generation.

Building a good relationship with a wealthy second-generation member only had advantages and no disadvantages.

“Xu, brother, I didn’t expect you to be the biggest investor in ‘War Leopard’,” one of the middle-aged men, about fifty years old, stood up and said.

“Brother Tang, I didn’t expect you to have invested in ‘War Leopard’ either,” Xu Yang replied with a smile.

This middle-aged man was none other than Tang Zhengqi, the vice president of Jiangcheng’s Antique Association.

“President Tang, you know Mr. Xu?” Wu Jing asked, surprised.

“Yes, we met a short while ago. Brother Xu is no ordinary person, with a very unique investment vision,” Tang Zhengqi said with a chuckle.

After that, Wu Jing introduced the other investors to Xu Yang, one by one.

Xu Yang was the largest investor, having contributed twenty million.

Tang Zhengqi had invested fifteen million, making him the second-largest investor.

The others, including Wu Jing, had invested between five and ten million.

After chatting for a while and getting to know each other, Xu Yang went to talk to Han Yanghui.

At ten o’clock, the completion ceremony began.

First, Wu Jing gave a speech, followed by the main creative team who went on stage to share their insights on filming and the original intentions behind making the movie.

Lastly, there was group photo of the creative team and the investors.

While the completion ceremony was taking place, a young man and woman entered the Haicheng Grand Hotel.

These two were Zhao Yulu and Chen Guanglei.

They had come here to dine.

Today happened to be the day when raw jade stones were transported to the Haicheng Jade Trade Center.

Chen Guanglei had brought Zhao Yulu for this reason.

After arriving, they decided to eat here.

Chen Guanglei said there was a signature dish at Haicheng Grand Hotel that was especially delicious.

It wasn’t far from the Jade Trade Center, just a ten-minute drive away.
