After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 741 - 403: Ignorant of the Vastness of the Sky and Earth
Fan Xin always thought of himself as a rather particular person, someone with a good deal of patience.
Two years ago, he planned to conquer Tang Xinyi, but all this time, he had never taken any drastic actions towards her; instead, he worked meticulously behind the scenes, so she was completely unaware.
He aimed for a single decisive strike, a powerful move to completely win over Tang Xinyi.
What he enjoyed was precisely this behind-the-scenes maneuvering, wrapping the target in layers until they were securely within his grasp.
The reason he targeted Chen Feng this time was mainly because Chen Feng showed him no respect, first by interrupting him outright and taking Tang Xinyi and Lu Sijia away from his side.
Then, showing not the slightest interest in the investment project he proposed, Chen Feng rejected it flat out, once again ignoring his face.
Beyond these two factors, the particularly close demeanor between Tang Xinyi and Chen Feng also made him feel threatened and dissatisfied.
One must understand, Tang Xinyi has been single for two or three years, and he was well aware of this, having even investigated it. During this time, Tang Xinyi was always busy with her Qipeng Media company, with a completely blank romantic life.
This is also one of the reasons Fan Xin could bear the patience to strategize against her from the shadows for two years. If she had a boyfriend, he would have acted long ago.
Although he had a particular fondness for married women, enjoying planting a green hat on other men, Tang Xinyi was a woman he had long set his sights on, naturally not wishing for her to get too close to other men, preventing them from returning the favor.
If Chen Feng had any sense, after Lu Sijia passed his words along, he'd reach out soon, seeking to reconcile.
He was confident in this!
In the small circle of the film industry, his uncle could be said to have direct control over the rise and fall of these film companies. Which company didn't give him and his uncle face, or paid them due respect?
However, he also heard from others just now that Chen Feng seemed to have a good relationship with Tao Yaoyang, so it was necessary for him to go over and test the waters, say a few words.
Fan Xin, of course, knew about Tao Yaoyang's background and identity, so unless necessary, he did not want to offend him.
Even if offending Tao Yaoyang wouldn't necessarily lead to half success, everyone deserved to maintain civility, without souring relationships over others.
Fan Xin quickly found his way to Tao Yaoyang, carrying a glass of red wine, and with a smile asked, "I heard you and that Chen Feng are friends?"
Tao Yaoyang raised an eyebrow slightly and nodded, saying, "Yes, he is my friend, why do you ask?"
Fan Xin chuckled and said, "It's nothing, just that this friend of yours seems a bit clueless."
At this, Tao Yaoyang's expression slightly darkened. He had just said Chen Feng was his friend, yet Fan Xin still called Chen Feng clueless, directly disrespecting him in front of several onlookers.
From Tao Yaoyang's perspective, it was Fan Xin who was being clueless, directly disrespecting him like that.
Of course, Fan Xin might have done it deliberately, aiming to show others that he wasn't afraid of Tao Yaoyang, placing the two on equal footing.
Truth be told, Fan Xin indeed had the qualifications to stand equal to Tao Yaoyang.
Tao Yaoyang had deep scheming and rarely lost his temper, so with a vague smile, he asked, "How so? Did he provoke you?"
Fan Xin nodded directly and said, "Yes. I was having a nice chat with Tang Xinyi when he rudely interrupted and pulled her away. Later, I kindly introduced him to a surefire investment project, and he didn't appreciate it at all, outright rejecting it. Ha, he seems quite arrogant! Could he really be some tremendous big shot?"
Hearing Fan Xin's words, Tao Yaoyang understood: a beauty was the cause of all the trouble.
Originally, he thought of giving Fan Xin a heads-up, telling him that Chen Feng was indeed someone formidable, as they had known each other for years. However, Fan Xin's attitude had been outright obnoxious, making him unhappy and surrounded by several bystanders, putting him on a show of righteous indignation. Thus, naturally, he didn't want to warn him.
Moreover, although he had long believed that Chen Feng had connections reaching the skies, he hadn't personally observed these yet, nor did he know precisely what connections Chen Feng had. With Fan Xin voluntarily being sent into the mix, he could let Fan Xin probe and verify, truly testing what kind of energy and back-end support Chen Feng relied on.
Having quickly run through these thoughts in his mind, a kindly smile spread across Tao Yaoyang's face towards Fan Xin, and he warmly put an arm around his shoulder, taking him aside to speak quietly.
The others nearby, seeing this, sensibly did not follow.
"Actually, my relationship with Chen Feng is quite ordinary. Since he was clueless, how you decide to handle him is none of my business. Rest assured on that point."
After making sure the surrounding people couldn't hear what he was saying, Tao Yaoyang quietly said this to Fan Xin.
Fan Xin was somewhat surprised to see Tao Yaoyang outright distancing himself from any connection to Chen Feng. Although he thought highly of his own status and the backing he relied on, he was very aware of their differences in certain aspects.
Primarily, Tao Yaoyang had an extensive network, meeting people from all walks of life. Just within the upper circles, he knew quite a bit more.
This was something Fan Xin couldn't compare to him for now.
Secondly, speaking of identity, both now worked at private equity firms, but Tao Yaoyang was a shareholder and executive director, while he wasn't a shareholder, merely an investment manager. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
The only area where Fan Xin felt superior to Tao Yaoyang was that his uncle held a higher position than Tao Yaoyang's father by half a rank, and his uncle was younger and not nearing retirement.
Moreover, he himself was several years younger than Tao Yaoyang.
Therefore, in the long run, he was sure his future status and identity would surpass Tao Yaoyang's. As for networks, as long as he dedicated himself, they wouldn't be any less extensive than Tao Yaoyang's in the future.
Fan Xin had such confidence.
Tao Yaoyang's current stance assured Fan Xin that Tao Yaoyang was intimidated by him.
Discovering this, he was quite pleased.
"Since you're saying this, then when I deal with him in the future, I won't hold back."
Fan Xin sneered.
Tao Yaoyang let out a couple of chuckles before asking with feigned curiosity, "How do you plan to deal with him?"
Fan Xin glanced at him and without hiding, said with a faint smile, "His company has a big production underway recently, doesn't it? I think it will be challenging to release once it's completed. In the future, as long as his company produces something, I think it will be hard to release it."
Upon hearing it was indeed such a method, Tao Yaoyang felt a sense of disdain. It seemed beyond relying on his uncle, he had little else.
However, on another note, this method proved exceptionally effective against film companies. With the usual background of a film company, they could only comply and beg for mercy.
But Tao Yaoyang believed Chen Feng wouldn't be so easily caught in his stranglehold; he had confidence in Chen Feng.
