Just as the atmosphere gradually heated up, a questioning voice ca from the side, breaking the ambiguous mood.

"Excuse , are both of you here to attend tonight's Charity Wine Party?"

The speaker seed to be a welcoming staff mber of the banquet, slightly bending at the waist, wearing a smile, and respectfully asking the two individuals.

Gu Heng did not speak, but Jiang Ruxue pulled out an invitation to the wine party.

Generally, such invitations are uniformly customized by the custor's arrangent and provided by the hotel, also as a precaution to prevent any imposters from sneaking in, as this kind of situation has indeed happened before.

The welcoming staff mber took the invitation.

After briefly confirming, the tone beca even more respectful. After all, tonight's Charity Wine Party was without a doubt an upscale affair. Those invited were either business tycoons or big-na stars, all of them rich or prestigious, not a single attendee was an ordinary person.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Gu, for taking ti out of your busy schedule to attend this Charity Wine Party. This way, please, Mr. Gu."

After speaking, the welcoming staff mber gave a few instructions to a server nearby, then personally led Gu Heng and Jiang Ruxue to the executive lounge of the hotel.

Just upon entering the elevator, the welcoming staff spoke: "Tonight's wine party is divided into two locations due to the large number of invited guests. One is Banquet Hall No.1 at the Bulgari Hotel, and the other is the executive lounge on the upper floor.

Because the space in the executive lounge is limited, only guests with invitations can enter. Mr. Gu, do you plan to go directly to Banquet Hall No.1 or to the executive lounge?"

The welcoming staff's words were actually quite easy to understand.

Inside the executive lounge were all social elites; Banquet Hall No.1 held those just there to make up the numbers.

As for why there needed to be a crowd of fillers, the reason was simple: if there weren't these fillers, who would publicize the Charity Wine Party?

Having understood the general content, Gu Heng did not make a fuss and directly said, "Let's go to the executive lounge then, we'll head to Banquet Hall No.1 when it's ti for the charity auction."

"Very well, Mr. Gu, please wait a mont."

Having said this, they pressed the button for the executive lounge floor in the elevator...

Tonight, it seed like Tencent Film had booked the entire Bulgari Hotel, as the elevator operated smoothly without any stops, reaching the floor of the executive lounge directly.

"Please, this way."

The welcoming staff made a gesture of invitation.

Gu Heng stepped in first, followed closely by Jiang Ruxue. In the so-called high society social events, the hierarchy is usually very clear, and everyone must rember their status. Jiang Ruxue was well aware of this; her role was rely that of a secretary. In plain terms, she was Gu Heng's personal attendant at such events, so she always followed behind him, never daring to overstep.

Once Gu Heng walked into the executive lounge, he scanned the room.

There were roughly a hundred people inside the entire executive lounge...

Unexpectedly to Gu Heng, he recognized almost all of the individuals in the room...

At a charity event where fa and face-ti vied for attention, there were hardly any stars in the entertainnt industry who wouldn't want to attend. Because of this, most of the people here were so-called "public figures," and the stars that made it to the executive lounge were at least A-list or top-tier celebrities. As for those third-tier or fourth-tier minor celebrities, they were probably sitting in Banquet Hall No.1 at this ti.

Thus it was no surprise that Gu Heng found these faces familiar.

At that mont, a middle-aged man with a smile, followed by five or six n in suits, approached Gu Heng.

"Mr. Gu, I greatly appreciate you taking the ti to attend tonight's Charity Wine Party!"

The middle-aged man, nad Sun Zhonghuai, was currently the president of Tencent Film, one of the key decision-makers within the Tencent business empire.

Although this was Gu Heng's first ti eting Sun Zhonghuai, he had familiarized himself with so basic information about the key individuals on the guest list before coming tonight, to prevent any blunders.

For charity events hosted by Tencent, the invitees could not be just ordinary small business owners.

Indeed, it wouldn't be an overstatent to say that those who could attend this wine party were the ceiling-level capital of the film and TV industry.

Even for celebrities with tens of millions of fans, Gu Heng would not pay much attention, but he knew to have due respect for these individuals.

"Mr. Sun, hello."

She briefly shook hands with Sun Zhonghuai and greeted him with a smile.

After a bit of small talk, Sun Zhonghuai seed to rember sothing, smacked his own forehead, and said with a laugh, "Look at , my head is in such a whirl, I totally forgot to introduce Mr. Gu to everyone."

Saying this, he stepped aside and introduced the people next to him to Gu Heng.

"This is Mr. Zhang, CEO of Wanda Film, Zhang Genming."

"President of Guangxian dia, Mr. Wang, Wang Changtian."

"..."

Just as Gu Heng expected.

Almost all of these people were major capital moguls from the film and dia industry in Jingcheng.

It's no exaggeration to say that just the combined clout of these six or seven people was enough to destroy any celebrity in the entertainnt industry.

This group of people cordially made their way towards the front of the executive lounge, while the celebrities in the room all had gleaming eyes, watching Gu Heng's figure as he left.

There was no helping it, Gu Heng had beco too famous recently. As professionals in the entertainnt industry, they had a keen sense for popularity that ordinary people couldn't match. Even if Gu Heng wasn't famous, his fortune of several hundred billion was enough to be looked up to by any star in the industry. So naturally, they all had many thoughts upon seeing Gu Heng in person.

"Qianqian, I rember you interacted with Mr. Gu in Paris a while ago, are you familiar with him? Could you introduce ?"

Listening to her close friend Zhang Jianing, Song Qian couldn't help but grit her teeth...

Zhang Jianing was right...

She indeed had interactions with Gu Heng...

But what was the actual situation?

The actual situation was she was keen to offer herself, but Gu Heng didn't even show the slightest interest in her...

At first, Song Qian didn't care much, thinking maybe Gu Heng didn't want to get involved with a star from the entertainnt circle, as there are many rich people with such scruples. It wasn't until the rumors between Ouyang Nana and Gu Heng surfaced that she realized...

It wasn't that Gu Heng didn't want to get involved with stars...

He just simply didn't fancy her...

Thinking of this, Song Qian gritted her teeth again and then resud a calm deanor, saying, "I did interact with him, but it was just a few words at a manor dinner, not even a slight acquaintance. I can't manage an introduction.

But I can give you a lead. See Ouyang Nana over there? I rember you know her, right? Go to her, she and Mr. Gu are not at all simple."

Following Song Qian's gaze, Ouyang Nana was at that mont amidst a large group.

As for the people next to her, they were all incredibly famous top-tier celebrities...

For instance, the queen of controversy in the entertainnt world, Yang Mi, Re Ba, Yang Zi, and others, all of them were currently highly sought-after top-tier celebrities in the film circuit...

As the queen of controversy, although Yang Mi was almost 40, she was still a workaholic, never missing any event where exposure and topics were guaranteed.

"I recall this Mr. Gu isn't soone from our circle, right? Weren't only industry insiders invited to tonight's wine party? Why would Mr. Gu show up here, and Mr. Sun even specially ca to welco him?"

Yang Zi, a native of Jingcheng and currently one of the young generation's breakout top-tier celebrities, couldn't help but voice her curiosity.

And in the next second, having ascended to the ranks of entertainnt capital, Yang Hanshu swirled his wine glass and said softly, "Mr. Gu is in finance and investnt. Since it's investnt, he may have whimsically decided to invest in our film industry.

Plus, Mr. Gu recently made a huge investnt of 30 billion to turn IDE Capital into a group with seven subsidiaries. So far, only the energy and education subsidiaries have been disclosed. Five companies haven't been announced yet. Maybe 'film investnt' is also one of the business projects after the restructuring of IDE Capital Group, huh?

And considering how small the film circle's plate is, just by allocating one-tenth of 30 billion, you could beco a formidable player crossing the river."

As everyone was chatting, Jingjing, who had been listening quietly to the sidelines, flicked her eyes, seemingly deep in thought...
