"What's wrong?" Everyone hurried to Engelite's side.
Engelite's expression was very ugly.
"Engelite, aren't you with the president? Where's he? "
Before Engelite could reply, Chen Zhao suddenly descended from the sky.
"It's fine," Chen Zhao said. "When we were using the ballistics testing device, it suddenly exploded. Let's continue the party. Disperse, disperse."
Engelite turned his head. Seeing his expression, everyone guessed that it was probably Chen Zhao's fault.
Chen Zhao always cared about his reputation. He wouldn't allow others to expose his own accident.
Chen Zhao was also very depressed. After transforming into Djinn, Chen Zhao's speed broke through Mach 45.
In the end, the strong airflow and the high heat from the friction caused the device to explode.
Who would've thought that it would explode?
Chen Zhao was as depressed as he could be.
Twenty to thirty million dollars had gone down the drain just like that.
Everyone found out from Engelite after the incident.
Of course, they said it behind Chen Zhao's back.
"Klaus, go find Akasuo and buy another set of this device," Chen Zhao said to Klaus.
After a pause, Chen Zhao added, "Oh, I need a larger one. The larger the diameter of the trajectory, the better."
"President, you can customize one. It's not much expensive, but you need to build a circular track. That way, the heat and airflow won't affect the stability of the speed measuring ring."
"Sure." Chen Zhao nodded.
He'd already bought the device anyway. He didn't lack money.
"Oh, you didn't fight with Nelly Wen Lansi, right?"
Klaus shrugged. "No, she's just complaining that I've hidden so many things from her."
Chen Zhao could understand. Both sides had their own standpoints.
Nelly Wen Lansi obviously didn't like people hiding secrets from her.
On the other hand, Klaus didn't want Nelly Wen Lansi to know about his dangerous work.
This was the same as most members of the association.
For example, Engelite was a classic example.
There was also Ados. Chen Zhao still didn't know how many people he had at home.
But he definitely had a family.
Occasionally, he'd go out for a day or two.
According to Chen Zhao and the association members' judgment, he probably had kids at home.
It was easy for Chen Zhao and the association members to investigate Ados.
However, this was very disrespectful to Ados.
That was why no one investigated Ados.
If one day he was willing to tell everyone and was willing to introduce his family to everyone, they would also be happy.
Even if she was never introduced to everyone, no one would resent her.
The party was quite lively, but Chen Zhao saw Litt Grove drinking in a corner.
"Hey, Grove, why are you so gloomy?" Chen Zhao went up and patted Litt Grove's shoulder.
"Teacher, can I ask you for a favor?"
"Tell me, what can I do for you?"
"My dad might be in a bit of a debt crisis recently."
"How much does he owe?"
"No, I'm not borrowing money."
Last time, Litt Grove had borrowed a lot of money from Chen Zhao. He hadn't returned it yet.
How could Litt Grove have the face to keep borrowing money?
Moreover, he didn't think that his father had the ability to pay back the money in his current state.
"I was wondering if you could recommend any suitable roles for my father in Mr. Steven's new movie."
"Sure." Chen Zhao nodded.
It was no trouble at all. Back then, Chen Zhao had used his relationship with Portia to recommend two roles for her.
Of course, it turned out that Portia really wasn't good at acting, although she still enjoyed it.
And Litt Grove's father was an A-list Hollywood star, although his status had dropped a lot.
His status had dropped a lot, but his acting skills were definitely good.
"But I can't guarantee that your father will definitely get the role."
"Of course, I know."
"Does your father really not need money? I can help him relieve some of his financial pressure, "Chen Zhao said.
"Teacher, my father is very depressed now. The bank doesn't trust him anymore and is urging him to repay the loan in advance. He's under a lot of pressure and no one wants him to act in a movie. I feel that he's not going to be able to recover. Even if you lend him money now, he won't be able to repay it," Litt Grove said. "So, instead of lending him money, you might as well give him a chance. If he can successfully audition for Mr. Steven's new movie, the bank will have confidence in him again. He'll also regain his confidence."
Chen Zhao didn't expect Litt Grove to think so comprehensively. He had underestimated him.
Chen Zhao knew very well how much of a bastard Litt Grove was in the past.
"I'll ask Steven for you," Chen Zhao said. "I'm not sure if he has any new movies recently. If he does, I'll try to recommend your father to you."
…
The next day, Chen Zhao called Steven.
"Steven, are you filming any movies recently?"
"I don't have any plans for now. Weird … Why are you suddenly concerned about my movies? Don't you usually not talk about this? "
"If you have a new movie plan, I can recommend an actor."
"Which one?" Steven was even more confused. Chen Zhao had never directly recommended an actor.
"Drow Grove," Roland said.
"Him? What's his relationship with you?"
"I don't know him," Chen Zhao said.
"Are you a fan of his?"
"Not really."
"Then why should I use him? He's good at acting, but his pay doesn't match his status. His box office appeal is mediocre too. I really can't find a reason to use him. "
"I'm not forcing you to use him. I'm just saying that if you think he has a suitable role for you, give him a chance."
"With his status, he can only be the main character," Steven said. "Have you ever seen an A-list actor play a supporting role? Even if he's not the main character, he has to be the antagonist. He'll also have the most screen time. "
"So it's impossible?"
"Yes, if you can convince me, I will find a script that suits him. My studio receives more than 100 scripts every day, and there are quite a few good ones. So, it doesn't depend on his status, price, or acting skills. It depends on why you want to help him."
Steven's meaning was clear. He would only help because of Chen Zhao, not anyone else.
"A lucky coin," Chen Zhao said.
"Speaking of which, he's indeed a good actor. I didn't agree for that lucky coin."
