Li He shrugged, "Anyway, he's your biological brother."
You're already like this even though you're his biological sister. What can I do as your brother-in-law?
"It's because he's my biological brother that I have to teach him how to be a person." He Fang sighed, "As his sister, I don't expect him to repay me. Although he hurts me sometimes, I'm really fine with it. However, he has to make friends. He can't treat others like this. Otherwise, he'll be hated by others.
If he loses face, both of us will be embarrassed. "
Li He said, "I'll listen to you."
It wasn't the first or second time that He Long had embarrassed him.
However, he didn't mind it. He, Old Li, wasn't a vain person. It was true that he cared about his face but he wouldn't associate He Long's face with his own.
Wang Yuan treated Li He to a meal and Li He didn't reject it. It was time for him to return the favor.
"Boss Li, long time no see." Wang Yuan welcomed him at the entrance of the restaurant. There were many people standing behind him, including Li Aijun, Zhang Xianwen, and the rest.
"You're a fat ball now?" Li He teased, "How did you eat?"
"It means that your life is better now. You're not like before where you can't even eat your fill." At first, Wang Yuan did not understand the first half of the sentence, but when he heard the second half, he understood what it meant. Not only was he not angry at Li He's teasing, but he was also very proud. This meant that Li Lao Er treated him as a friend!
If it was an outsider, Old Li's words would be monotonous and uninteresting.
Zhang Xianwen smiled, "I finally realized that you rich and successful people like to reminisce about the past. Ordinary people like us aren't qualified to do that."
Li He continued, "Old Zhang, you're right. If you buy two biographies of famous people, you'll also realize that these famous people are all so poor that even a dog would despise them. In the end, it's probably a Wuxia plot. Not only did they not die after falling off a cliff, but they also benefited from the misfortune. They picked up a martial arts secret manual or got pointers from an expert.
Similarly, in the future, when someone writes a biography about your unlucky days, not only will they not mention it, they'll even make a big deal of it. Without the dejection of the past, you wouldn't be able to reflect your greatness today. "
Zhang Xianwen waved his hand and said, "I don't have the qualifications to have someone write a biography. At best, I'm a middleman."
"If you, the Fashion King, aren't qualified, who else is?" Xu Guohua said with a smile. "You, don't be too humble."
"Yeah, as the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together." Zhang Shulin had come with Li He, and his goal was to expand his social circle. Now that he had a chance to speak, he smiled and said, "Those who are capable are naturally surrounded by capable people. Therefore, everyone here is a leader in the industry, and naturally, you are qualified to reminisce about the past.
Coincidentally, my classmate is young, in the prime of his youth, full of scholarly spirit, full of vigor. "
Everyone burst into laughter. Some laughed at Zhang Shulin for being a bookworm, while others were happy that his words were clever.
Pinsong asked with a smile, "Director Zhang, according to what you said, those who don't have money won't have friends?"
Zhang Shulin smiled and said, "Even a poor couple has a hundred things to mourn, not to mention a grown man facing a grown man. After a long time, no one will think of keeping in touch with each other. Keeping in touch requires expenses, and who will pay for gatherings and meals? Moreover, what do we talk about together? We're always bragging together, and we'll get tired of it after three to five times.
Don't tell me we're sighing and sighing together, regretting our past, and reopening each other's scars when we were young? "
Everyone burst into laughter again.
"Director Zhang, although your words are vulgar, they're incisive! Human relations are like thin pieces of paper, and the affairs of the world are like a new game of chess. The poor live in the bustling city and no one cares about them, while the rich have distant relatives deep in the mountains. If you don't believe me, just look at the wine in the banquet. Every cup is toasted to the rich. Tie a tall horse in front of the door, and even if it's not a relative, it's still a relative. "Among the group of nouveau riche, Xiang Dong was one of the few who had received higher education.
When those words were said, no one laughed anymore. They felt their faces burning.
Although Xiang Dong's words and Zhang Shulin's words had the same effect, the meaning they conveyed was different. Zhang Shulin was saying that birds of a feather flock together, and that everyone was awesome and did not need to explain.
On the other hand, Xiang Dong was saying that people were all despicable, and that they were all vile people who tried to climb to the top and trample on the low.
And it was in front of Second Brother Li!
Wang Yuan said, "Director Fang, in front of Boss Li, no one here dares to call themselves rich. Hurry up, don't continue standing at the door. Please! "
"Let's go. The sun is quite hot." Li He patted Xiang Dong's shoulder. He could only smile bitterly at this bookworm.
After entering the private room, Li He sat on the main seat without any hesitation.
"I'll say this first. I only have one bottle. I can't drink more."
"As long as you're willing to touch the glass, I'm afraid you'll say you don't want to drink." Wang Yuan poured a glass of beer for Li He.
Everyone there knew that Li He was abstaining from alcohol, so they did not urge him to drink.
"Director Su, your movies are selling like hotcakes now." Halfway through their drinks, Xu Guo Hua suddenly mentioned Su Ming's film company.
Su Ming smiled and said, "Why? Do you think this is an easy job? Why don't you invest in two? You'll know when the time comes whether it's profitable or not. "
"Don't." Xu Guo Hua clinked glasses with Wang Yuan, then smiled and said, "I don't have the ability to do this. This opportunity should be left to a coal boss like Director Ping. These coal bosses and gold bosses love to invest in movies the most."
Pinsong said, "I'm just doing a small business. I've just entered the industry. How can I be considered a coal boss?"
Su Ming said, "Speaking of coal bosses, I like them to death. They feel good investing money. Other than having some requirements when it comes to choosing a role, they don't care about anything else."
Wang Yuan said, "I like this kind of coal boss. Introduce me a dozen. However, I really don't think you're joking. They really don't care about anything. I know quite a few coal bosses. They eat, drink, and play every day. They earn money just by lying down. I once asked a friend. I said, 'You have such a big mine. Don't you keep an eye on it every day?'
He said that the most important thing in coal mining is safety in production. They have to have safety awareness. Since they don't understand these things, they should leave it to people who do. It's different from other industries. If they make a mistake, they can still make up for it. In this industry, if they give random instructions, people will die.
These people may look rustic, but they're actually very smart. If they're really stupid, they won't have the chance to earn money at all. "
Pinsong continued, "I believe what you said. After entering this industry, I finally understand that this industry produces smart and ruthless people. If you don't have some ability, you really can't do this."
Wang Yuan stood up and raised his glass. "This is my first time here. If there's anything I don't understand in the future, please advise me. If I make a mistake, please forgive me."
"Let's improve together." Li He stood up and raised his glass.
The others stood up one after another and raised their glasses as well.
"Thank you, everyone." Wang Yuan finished the beer in his glass. Then, he poured another glass and drank it all in one go.
