Chapter 521 One thought makes the world wide
After a long time of effort, Liu Tao finally got the unconscious Huang Yi to the bed in the bedroom.
In order to get Huang Yi drunk, she actually drank quite a bit. After settling Huang Yi down, she sat by the bed in a daze for about ten minutes before forcing herself to clear up the mess outside.
In fact, it is okay not to clean up, but Liu Tao is worried that if he doesn't move his hands and feet, he will soon follow in Huang Yi's footsteps.
When Liu Tao was about halfway through packing, he received a call from Wang Ke:
"Wife, which unit and floor are you on?"
"you arrived?"
Before Liu Tao helped Huang Yi to the bedroom, he called Wang Ke. Almost half an hour had passed.
"almost there."
Wang Ke pretended to be calm and said, "Are you drunk? I'll go upstairs to pick you up."
"Haha~ You want to go upstairs and see if I've cheated on you, right?" Liu Tao didn't give Wang Ke any face at all and directly broke the window paper.
After all, whether he gets close to Xu Kun or, as a second choice, goes to Zhang Da Huzi, he has to pass this hurdle. Instead of letting Wang Ke be suspicious all day long because of Schrödinger's cheating, it is better to lay things out and help him prepare psychologically.
After hearing what Liu Tao said, Wang Ke was silent for a long time on the phone, and then he suddenly shouted: "Liu Tao, I have tolerated you for a long time today! Don't think that..."
Liu Tao hung up the phone when he was halfway through his speech.
After thinking about it, I edited another text message and sent it: I found a new way. If it works, maybe I can really pay off my debt.
Seven or eight minutes had passed since the text message was sent before Wang Ke replied: I'm at the east gate of the community.
"Haha~"
Liu Tao sneered, slowly put the dishes in order, then rubbed his brows and went downstairs.
At that time, more than 20 minutes had passed since Wang Ke replied to the text message, so when Liu Tao showed up at the gate of the community, Wang Ke had already become impatient and was leaning against the car door smoking with an irritable look on his face.
Seeing Liu Tao staggering into the car, he didn't have a good look on his face. He just silently sat back in the driver's seat and started the car.
Wang Ke wanted to use cold violence, but Liu Tao was not in a hurry at all. After all, there was a way out as bait, so he didn't believe that Wang Ke could keep his composure.
After driving about two blocks, Wang Ke couldn't hold back and said without even looking away: "Didn't you just send a message saying that you found a new road?"
Liu Tao wanted to say a few more words to him, but when she saw the veins bulging on Wang Ke's hands as he gripped the steering wheel, she became worried that if she continued to stimulate him, her husband would get emotional and do something irrational.
So he said to Wang Ke, "There was a gap before, so I didn't think of it. It wasn't until Huang Yifang mentioned it that I suddenly understood."
"What is the method? Tell me now!"
Wang Ke actually didn’t care much about the cause, he just couldn’t wait to hear what the solution was.
The previous statement of letting Liu Tao return to work and repay the debt was just a way of delaying the matter out of necessity. It was also a hope that the family could have some income so that they would not be so poor and suffer from hunger and cold.
But in fact, the couple didn't believe in their hearts that they could pay back the money by filming.
After all, that’s 500 million!
Before retiring from the screen, Liu Tao was just a second-tier star, not even outstanding among second-tier stars. Otherwise, why would she quit the circle without any regrets?
So when Wang Ke saw Liu Tao saying in the message that there was a chance to pay off the debt, his first thought was not to believe it. However, he was under too much pressure now, and he couldn't miss it even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance.
Hence the indirect response of submission.
Seeing him urging him urgently, Liu Tao finally threw out a person: "Do you still remember Jiang Xin?"
"When we got married, we almost hit the best man's cunt?"
"It's her!"
In this time and space, because Jiang Xin joined the Teddy Sisters, her relationship with Liu Tao is not as close as in the original time and space. They are relatively familiar friends, but not to the level of good girlfriends.
When the two got married at the beginning of the year, there was a conflict between Wang Ke's best man and Jiang Xin. Because Liu Tao tried to mediate and even sided with the best man, the two had a very unhappy argument and never contacted each other again.
But even if they broke up, it would definitely be more reliable than asking Huo Siyan to act as a matchmaker.
"What does this have to do with her?"
"You forgot that she has another identity. She is a member of the Teddy Sisters."
"You're thinking……"
Wang Ke's expression became extremely ugly, and his eyes moved back and forth between the front of the car and Liu Tao's face.
A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Even if Wang Ke is not in the circle, he knows the relationship between the Teddy Sisters and Xu Kun. Director Xu's reputation in certain aspects is even more well-known.
Seeing Wang Ke's head shaking mechanically like an old fan with aging circuits, Liu Tao immediately regretted that she had spoken too early. She should at least wait until she got off the bus. To avoid any accidents, she had to make amends and said, "Jiang Xin's temper is a bit straightforward, but she is a soft-hearted person. As long as we explain our situation to her clearly, she will definitely be willing to help.
I heard that Director Xu Kun is now being ordered to form the Dongda Young Directors Association. From now on, all young directors must give him some respect. As long as they can get their name on his list, they won’t have to worry about lack of resources! ”
This is purely an attempt to cover up one's own mistakes. Anyway, Wang Ke does not believe that Jiang Xin has such great ability to easily influence Xu Kun's thoughts.
Otherwise, the most popular member of the Teddy Sisters should not be Jiang Yiyan, Li Xiaolu, Huo Siyan, or Liu Shishi, but Jiang Xin.
But with this cover, Wang Ke felt better, so he asked what he was most concerned about: "Even so, it may not be that easy to pay off this debt, right?"
Seeing that Wang Ke had calmed down a lot, Liu Tao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then he put what he had learned into practice and sold Xu Kun's arguments to Wang Ke.
Wang Ke is also engaged in capital operations. Although he has not paid much attention to Huayi and LeTV before, after a simple simulation of the current trend, he feels that there may be 20% to 30% chance of success.
As I said, for him now, a one in ten thousand chance is worth a try, let alone a 20% or 30% chance.
However, Wang Ke became increasingly unconvinced that his wife could obtain enough resources to become a top-tier player simply by relying on her relationship with Jiang Xin.
Jiang Xin can only be regarded as a stepping stone at best. As for how to gain the favor of the "master" after knocking on the door...
Wang Ke saw that the light ahead was green, but instead of speeding up, he wanted to slam on the brakes - but if he didn't go forward against the green light, he was afraid he would never be able to go home in this life.
Liu Tao saw the struggle in his heart and didn't say anything else along the way. Only when they got home and got out of the car did he say lightly, "Remember to buy me a flight to Shanghai tomorrow morning. Jiang Xin is filming there now."
After saying that, she just walked away.
After walking about ten steps, Wang Ke replied in a hoarse voice, "Got it."
Liu Tao's steps paused for a moment, then returned to normal.
The couple slept in separate rooms that night. Until about 1 ., Liu Tao could still hear Wang Ke arguing with his creditor in the next room.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Liu Tao was sitting in front of the dressing table putting on makeup. Wang Ke walked in with dark circles under his eyes and silently put the plane ticket on the table.
"I'll wait for you in the car."
After saying this, Wang Ke turned around and left.
"What about breakfast?"
Liu Tao put down the rhino horn comb in his hand and asked.
"Let's buy some food on the way."
Wang Ke walked out of the door while talking, and then heard a middle-aged woman's voice in the living room asking: "You ran away all day yesterday, where are you going now?"
"Liu Tao is going to Shanghai to ask her friends for help. I'll drive her to the airport..."
"What kind of decent friends can she have?!"
The woman's voice suddenly became shrill: "I told you long ago that you couldn't marry an actress, but you didn't believe me! Now it's bad enough. In less than a year, it's ruined our family..."
"mom!"
Wang Ke interrupted the woman irritably: "Liu Tao is a very powerful friend, maybe she can really help us - even if we can't pay off the debt for a while, as long as she can take on a few dramas, we can at least have some relief!"
"real or fake?"
Wang Ke's mother didn't believe it at all: "How could she know such a big shot? If she really had such a friend, why would she have been so determined to marry into our family? She wouldn't be lying..."
"Mom, please stop talking!"
Wang Ke interrupted his mother again, then grabbed the car keys and rushed out.
Liu Tao took in all the noise outside the door, and suddenly a thought popped into his mind: he had to be tied up in Wang's house because he was worried about his reputation being damaged.
But if I could really establish a relationship with Director Xu, even if the Wang family wanted to throw dirty water on me, Director Xu would definitely stop them. Then why would I need to be tied to Wang Ke? !
When disaster struck, everyone thought of running away, and suddenly they felt that the world was spacious.
However, now is not the time to come clean. At least I have to wait until I have established a relationship with Director Xu before I can make things clear with Wang Ke.
Liu Tao felt a little nervous when he thought about having a relationship with Director Xu.
What kind of women are not in the Teddy Sisterhood?!
In terms of fame, appearance, figure, acting skills, etc.
Liu Tao counted over and over in his mind but couldn't find any advantages of his own. The only thing he could rely on was his relationship with Jiang Xin, but he and Jiang Xin had a falling out at the beginning of the year.
