Chapter 349 Director Li

At the entrance of the building.

Linda was looking around; she had just received a call that President Chen would be arriving soon.

Last time, after President Chen gave her his business card and left, she had conducted a simple investigation based on that card.

In the end, she discovered a rather shocking issue.

That young man was actually the president of a Group.

There are many Group presidents, but this was the first time she had seen one so young.

Of course, what surprised her even more was that Nanhe Coffee was actually President Chen's property.

No wonder President Chen's expression had been so strange when she mentioned Nanhe Coffee back then.

Not long after, she saw a black G-Wagon pull up to the entrance of the building, instantly attracting the attention of many people.

Linda's gaze was naturally drawn to it as well.

She had looked into this black G-Wagon at a 4S dealership a while ago; it cost 1.5 million.

"They are all rich people!"

Linda sighed with emotion, then saw a young woman get out of the car first, followed by her welcoming another man out.

Upon seeing those two familiar figures, Linda was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly went up to greet them.

Those two figures were clearly President Chen and his assistant; she naturally dared not neglect them.

Looking at the black G-Wagon again, she sighed inwardly.

As the president of a Group, he actually only drove a car worth a little over a million; he was truly too low-key.

"President Chen, you are here. Please, follow me."

She walked up close and said respectfully.

Chen Mo looked at Linda, who had rushed over, nodded slightly, and followed her directly.

This was 20,000 yuan!

Entering the building, they arrived at the third floor and went into a photo studio.

Very quickly, they were brought before a middle-aged man.

"Director Li, this is Chen Mo. See? I wasn't wrong, was I?"

Linda introduced him. Because she had promised not to reveal Chen Mo's secrets, she didn't introduce him in too much detail; as for matters regarding his Group and company, she didn't mention them at all.

The middle-aged man called Director Li heard this and scrutinized Chen Mo carefully, his eyes showing a pleased expression.

Linda had shown him photos of Chen Mo, specifically the ones of him wearing a suit. In the photos, he felt this person fit the theme of this issue's 'Men's Wear' very well.

But it wasn't particularly stunning. However, seeing him in person now, he was very surprised.

The person himself—whether it was his temperament, his physique, or those subtle expressions—actually fit the 'Men's Wear' theme even better than in the photos.

No wonder Linda recommended this Chen Mo so highly.

He had struck gold!

"Hello, I am Director Li Tianyang. You can call me Director Li."

"Hello, Director Li. Chen Mo. You can just call me Xiao Chen."

Chen Mo smiled and shook hands with him, then asked.

"I wonder, Director Li, when will we start shooting?"

He was here to make money, not to engage in small talk.

Director Li Tianyang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile.

"We can start shooting now. The makeup artist is already prepared. Just go over, change your clothes, and put on some makeup, and we'll be ready."

"Linda, take Xiao Chen over there."

Watching Chen Mo and Linda enter the makeup room in the back, he had a trace of surprise on his face.

This model was a bit special!

Whenever other models found out he was Director Li Tianyang, which one of them wasn't polite to him, desperate to chat a few more sentences to curry favor with him and make a good impression?

But this Chen Mo didn't have the slightest intention of currying favor; there was even a sense of impatience.

Did he not know that as long as he gained his favor, there would be no shortage of magazine shoots or advertisements in the future?

There might even be a chance to enter the film and television industry.

After all, there had been a model before who, with his help, had now become an A-list actor.

But precisely because of this, every time he shot magazines or advertisements afterwards, those models would constantly try to get close to him, which annoyed him to no end.

But this Chen Mo seemed to have no intention of currying favor at all.

Interesting. Could he be acting this way on purpose to attract his attention?

He hadn't not encountered this before, but in the end, they couldn't help but show their true colors.

Director Li Tianyang looked at the distant makeup room with a thoughtful expression.

After a while, he chuckled.

Whether he was intentionally trying to attract his attention, he would naturally know after the shoot was finished.

Time passed bit by bit.

Chen Mo didn't know how many suits he had changed into; in any case, as soon as he finished shooting in one outfit, he would immediately change into another suit and continue shooting.

He suddenly felt that this 20,000 yuan wasn't easy to earn.

That's right, in this world, how could earning money be that easy?

In the studio, they had been shooting for nearly eight hours before the magazine shoot finally neared its end.

"President Chen, the shoot is finished."

Shen Rou walked over and handed him a bottle of water.

Looking at President Chen's exhausted face, she was very puzzled in her heart. President Chen was clearly the president of a Group; why would he accept this job of shooting for a magazine?

For that 20,000 yuan?

That was simply impossible. As soon as this thought arose in her mind, Shen Rou tossed it to the back of her head.

President Chen was the president of a Group; with his net worth, why would he care about this mere 20,000 yuan?

Shen Rou couldn't figure it out; she didn't know what exactly President Chen's intention was.

Sigh! Her own ability was still not enough.

If Wei Yan were here, he would definitely be able to see the hidden meaning behind President Chen doing this.

Chen Mo didn't notice Shen Rou's expression; he took the water, took a sip, and relaxed, leaning back in his chair.

"Xiao Chen, this shoot was very successful."

Director Li Tianyang walked over from a distance, saying with an excited face.

Chen Mo looked at Director Li Tianyang's excited expression without any reaction. Whether the shoot was successful or not had nothing to do with him; he just wanted to know now when his 20,000 yuan remuneration would be paid.

"As long as it was successful. I wonder, Director Li, when…"

As expected! Hearing Chen Mo's words, Director Li Tianyang thought to himself.

Based on his past experience, he basically already knew what Chen Mo would say next.

It was nothing more than, "When do you have time? I'd like to treat you to a meal," or something similar.

The joy that had originally arisen because the shoot was successful instantly vanished.

He really didn't like these people who took the initiative to curry favor.

If their ability was sufficient, even if they didn't curry favor, he would remember them, and if he encountered something suitable in the future, he would consider them.

Thinking of this, Director Li Tianyang felt a bit disappointed. He was very satisfied with this young man's appearance and his performance during the shoot just now.

If he were a young man who didn't curry favor and was neither humble nor pushy.

He would be very willing to provide some help in the future.

What a pity!

The thought flashed through his mind in an instant.

Director Li Tianyang was sighing inwardly, and just at this moment, the rest of Chen Mo's words were spoken.
