The Height of Glory and Fishing by the Lake

The pre-sale box office and first-day box office gave Fox and his son a good experience, an experience where they could easily make clean money, and because of this, they were sought after by celebrities and producers in the society.

Compared with simple wealth growth, the latter is actually what they enjoy most, because they can finally proudly tell others that they have stepped on the first step to Upper Class.

It won't be long before their father and son will become members of Upper Class.

This is actually a very strange... culture, or thought, in Bayer Federation, the goal of most people's efforts is wealth and money, but if you are looking for a goal that is similar to them, perhaps joining Upper Class is the only one.

There are many young and beautiful ladies who do not hesitate to take off their clothes easily with the title of slut, just to squeeze into the upper class social circle in the name of "social butterfly".

This is a very strange yearning, but it is the ultimate goal of most Federal people - to walk among dignitaries and celebrities all day long, chatting and laughing with them, it seems that doing so is the best thing.

The former Fox father and son may have had this idea, which is why Mr. Fox would send his children to school, but they realized the reality. Even if Little Fox completed his studies, it would be difficult for him to enter that world without an outstanding background, so he returned to Mr. Fox to engage in the "family business."

But now, everything has changed. They are walking on the red carpet, bathing in the scorching light of the spotlight, talking and laughing with people, and people are laughing because of their humor that may not be funny. It is really wonderful!

On top of all this, the response to the film after its full release has been a bit surprising.

Judging from the current box office and word-of-mouth trends, this movie may have the potential to be a big hit. Although many film critics have cursed the movie, they still cannot stop the alternative temptation of word-of-mouth.

Looking at the body of a female star is an irresistible temptation for many movie fans. Even if they know that the female star may not be famous, they still can't stop their desire to find out.

The box office also soared, and with it, Production Company held five filming agreements in his hand. According to Lin Qi's advice to Fox and his son, even if they had early agreements with other adult film producers, they had to sign a ladder agreement or a betting agreement to ensure their own interests.

The father and son and the heroine became instantly famous. In the next three days, the three-day box office data was released, and they suddenly became Lardimore's most popular people.

Every day different producers, Production Company, Director, screenwriters, and even actresses come into their room with various materials asking for help.

From investing several thousand yuan in a small production to experiencing different styles in exchange for an uncertain commitment, everyone benefits from this investment.

The success at the box office allowed the distribution company to see further possibilities. After consultation with Fox and his son, they decided to add an additional 350,000 Federal Sol for larger-scale publicity.

In order to make the publicity effect better, they came up with some unprecedented but full of temptation tricks.

For example, lucky viewers are selected to have dinner with the heroine, or even enjoy a dance that is full of art but not suitable for minors. This directly detonates a special group.

In order to meet the heroine, some people planned to use all the funds that did not affect their lives to buy movie tickets repeatedly, and these ended up in the pockets of Fox, his son, and Lin Qi.

Three days passed quickly. The whole Lardimore went crazy because of this movie, which some people thought was a completely vulgar movie. Some capital also began to tentatively make selective investments. The whole Lardimore suddenly came alive.

"《Federal Film》" published such an article titled "《Age of Vulgarity》".

"... Even though we know that it is just a dirty movie to satisfy the lustful maniac, you have to admit that it activated the entire Federal Movie Industry."

"More and more film projects are beginning to come into contact with capital, and some projects have been officially approved and casting has begun. This reminds me of Lardimore five years ago. The streets were full of various cameras and crews. Film shooting has been integrated into people's lives and into people's blood."

"I'm so happy that the life we were accustomed to is back!"

"I am also very sad, because no one knows whether the next era will belong to art or vulgarity!"

Just when Fox father and son were immersed in the life that they and even the entire Federal people yearned for, Lin Qi had quietly returned to Sabine City. He was not needed there, and he had nothing else to do there.

The first thing he did after returning to Sabine City was to ask Qiao Geliman out.

Qiao Geliman Because he was distrusted by the branch and the headquarters, his power was greatly reduced, making him almost a marginalized person in the bank.

In the past, everyone who worked in the bank would take the initiative to say hello to him when they saw him. A simple "Mr. Qiao Geliman, good morning" could make him feel happier.

But now no one is willing to say hello to him. Even those who are coming towards him, most of them lower their heads or look away. Even if they can't avoid Qiao Geliman's gaze, at most they just nod and say hello.

This gap made him feel very uncomfortable. Just because some people thought he was doing well, other people wanted to suppress him. This sounds funny, doesn't it?

But for a "little guy" like him, this is a fate he has no choice but to accept.

The two made an appointment at the villa by the lake. Since the general strike, their family had moved to the villa by the lake. The originally deserted villa area suddenly became lively with many people appearing.

Many wealthy people have moved here to avoid accidents. They spontaneously hired a fully armed security team for Community Service Company to protect their safety.

In fact, there is a deeper meaning here. If some special circumstances really happen, they can ask the security guards to kill the intruder directly. At that time, relying on their connections in society, they can easily suppress these things.

The two of them met in the afternoon. When Lin Qi saw Qiao Geliman, he was fishing by the lake. His whole person looked... full of twilight, like a retired old man who was spending his boring time and then waiting to grow old and die.

"Fishing is a very interesting thing!" Qiao Geliman said without looking back after hearing the footsteps. His eyes were always staring at the slightly rippled water. "You know, the fish at this time are the fattest. They have accumulated fat throughout the autumn, allowing the fish oil to penetrate into every muscle of them."

Lin Qi walked to the side and looked at the water, but his heart was not disturbed at all, "I thought you wouldn't like to eat freshwater fish. I don't know what kind of fish there are here, but I know that freshwater fish have a lot of spines."

Qiao Geliman fixed the fishing rod indifferently. He stood up and moved his shoulders. "My servant will help me pick out the thorns, so to me, there is no difference between freshwater fish and saltwater fish."

After a pause, Qiao Geliman asked Lin Qi directly about the purpose of his visit, "Tell me, is there anything I can help with?" He turned to look at Lin Qi, "But you know, my value is limited now. If I can't help you, I'm sorry, but it was a waste of time for you."

Lin Qi shook his head, "Can you help me with this matter? Didn't you say last time that the branch arranged an assistant for you?"

Upon hearing Lin Qi ask this, Qiao Geliman's expression changed slightly. He suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, nodded and asked, "Yes, do you want his contact information?"

Lin Qi could hear from his words that he was unhappy with his problem. Of course, Lin Qi did not immediately show any opposition. He just smiled and said, "No, you misunderstood my purpose. I want to ask you, why do you think he can't stand on your side?"

Qiao Geliman almost blurted out, "He is the one sent from above to deal with me..."

Lin Qi nodded noncommittally, "There are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests, Mr. Qiao Geliman, my friend."

"If you don't try, you get nothing, but if you try, there's at least a possibility, don't you think?"

Qiao Geliman After taking a deep look at Lin Qi, he ignored the topic that had taken root in his heart and said, "Tell me about your purpose. Maybe I can help you."

Lin Qi no longer talks in circles, "Listoan Group will definitely not leave. I will find a way to promote this matter. I have also reached an agreement with some people. By then, some of Listoan's industries will raise some compensation funds through auctions to compensate workers who have lost their ability to live and work due to work-related injuries over the years."

"I want to make sure that the auction price is not too high and that I am the only one who wins."

Qiao Geliman frowned. In Bayer Federation, Foreclosure Auction sales are basically contracted to banks. It is not easy for the court to interfere in these matters to avoid fraud.

Originally, he could control these things, but now his power has been evaded. If his assistants don't nod in agreement, many things will not be handled.

Qiao Geliman The expression on his face became more and more solemn and serious. He thought for a long time and shook his head, "I have hinted at some things, you know, but his attitude is very tough. I think maybe the higher-ups want him to replace my current position."

If the bank branch really has such ideas and arrangements, wooing them is an absolute joke.

Lin Qi was not too surprised. He put it another way, "If you can't win him over, can't you destroy him?"

"Everyone has weaknesses, and there are some weaknesses that can bring people to your side because you can help them compensate for them."

"But there are also some weaknesses that you can use to destroy."

He glanced at the suddenly rippled lake surface and said, "Your fish is biting!"
