Chapter 590: Chapter 443: Chu Mo’s Considerations Chapter 590: Chapter 443: Chu Mo’s Considerations Tao Yingying, a Golden Horse Award-winning actress, is also the seventh-ranked among Hua Country’s top ten most popular female artists; a ranking higher than that of Shi Yuan Entertainnt’s forr leading lady Lin Wanqiu, or even Sun Qing Ruoxi.
In the entirety of Shi Yuan Entertainnt, only Ding Xiaoni, who has recently risen to fa throughout Jiangnan, can surpass her.
Tao Yingying’s acting skills are comndable, with her films not only being popular but also well-received, generating pleasing box-office results.
She is hailed as the Box Office Queen, ranking second in total box office among Hua Country’s top-tier female artists; her box-office appeal is no less than that of the top male stars.
In the entertainnt industry of Hua Country, Zhou family’s Tianhua Entertainnt ranks third among companies, and Tao Yingying is the leading lady of Tianhua Entertainnt.
She has an abundance of resources at her disposal.
...
To be strict, Tao Yingying isn’t too concerned about cooperating with Director Li Hua.
With her status and position, even if Lin Hua is the top director in the country, their cooperation would still be a relationship of mutual benefit.
There is no question of one party depending on the other; such is the power of Tao Yingying as the leading lady of Tianhua Entertainnt.
However, no matter how high Tao Yingying’s status is in the entertainnt industry, or how important her role is within Tianhua Entertainnt, in front of top tycoons like Chu Mo and Zhou Weijun, she is still just a canary kept in a cage.
As the financier, Zhou Weijun has the power to lift her up, making her a top star that shines brightly for a ti and equally has the ability to make her lose everything in an instant.
Therefore, in front of tycoons of Chu Mo and Zhou Weijun’s stature, Tao Yingying, with her 97-point looks and refined temperant, had none of the haughtiness she exhibited towards ordinary people and not a trace of arrogance.
At this mont, Tao Yingying behaved like the most ordinary of hostesses, her smile blooming gracefully, respectful and cautious.
With her hair cascading like a waterfall, Tao Yingying walked gently beside Chu Mo.
As she intentionally lagged half a step behind, she spoke with a smiling face:
“Mr.
Zhou has already reserved the entire tea house.
Hearing that Mr.
Chu likes top-quality tea, Mr.
Zhou particularly prepared so premium Da Hong Pao for Mr.
Chu.
This tea costs five to six million RMB per kilogram; Mr.
Zhou usually won’t even let have a sip of it.”
Tianyuan Tea House is decorated in an extrely retro style, with antique-looking pavilions and walkways.
Even the private rooms are nad after Hua Country’s landscapes.
Chu Mo, followed only by Jiang Tao, maintained a smile on his lips.
His visit this ti was to probe what kind of person Zhou Weijun was, thus deciding whether to establish a cooperative relationship with him in the future or to sideline him entirely.
As for Tao Yingying in front of him, he simply didn’t take her to heart.
The group soon arrived at an elegant private room on the second floor.
It was only when a genteel woman respectfully opened the door that Chu Mo discovered the room was sothing special.
The room was very spacious, much larger than the ordinary restaurant private rooms that could sit only around ten people.
There was a table in the room with six chairs that possessed an ancient aura, and the room itself was partitioned off with screens.
The various green plants in the corner gave off a sense of vibrant spring.
At the center of the room, a casually dressed, chubby middle-aged man in leather shoes was sitting leisurely by the table, sipping tea.
The man had an average height and bore so resemblance to the Zhou family head, Zhou Weimin, with roughly five points of similarity.
His beard, however, was quite lush, giving him a sowhat unkempt appearance.
Two black-clad bodyguards stood behind the man, their eyes sharp.
From the mont Chu Mo entered the room, their gaze never left Jiang Tao, indicating that even if they didn’t possess the near-Grandmaster strength of Jiang Tao, they were no ordinary bodyguards.
Chu Mo’s eyes rested on the self-contented middle-aged man.
To be honest, if he hadn’t known the man’s identity beforehand and had bumped into him on the street, Chu Mo would never have imagined that this greasy-looking man was, in fact, a top boss of the Zhou family in Shanghai, soone capable of contesting with Zhou Weimin for the position of family head.
Not just Chu Mo, but anyone encountering him would not think this man was soone of power and influence.
While Chu Mo was casually observing the man in front of him, the latter was also discreetly sizing him up.
The middle-aged man’s gaze was firmly fixed on Chu Mo.
He showed no emotion nor any unusual behavior.
After a mont, the middle-aged man nodded slightly and initiated the conversation:
“I’ve been hearing about Mr.
Chu’s various deeds lately; I never expected to et you in person today.
Mr.
Chu is truly young and promising.”
Chu Mo rely smiled faintly.
He realized sothing: the man in front of him didn’t seem to have much enthusiasm for him, perhaps because he didn’t want Chu Mo to get involved in the Zhou family’s internal strife, or it might be that he wasn’t even aware that his brother had already sided with one of the eight major families.
“I’ve certainly heard quite a bit about Mr.
Zhou as well.”
As Chu Mo finished speaking, he took a seat opposite the middle-aged man without waiting for an invitation.
At this point, with no tea being served, Tao Yingying, who had accompanied them, simply stood quietly behind the middle-aged man, much like the most ordinary of maidservants, completely lacking the aura of a major star.
The Zhou family, as one of the four great families in Shanghai, possesses assets worth hundreds of billions.
Their most glorious tis were under the leadership of the old patriarch, Zhou Shixing, whose connections and influence ant that even the Lin family, the wealthiest among Shanghai’s four great families, ranked behind the Zhou family in terms of influence.
