Chapter 596 Villa District
"Thirteen, Xiaolin, Nier, my requirements for this team building activity are very simple: absolutely no problems!"
After stating his purpose, Mr. Nong looked at us and said seriously.
"Sister K, now that we've taken on the consulting job, we have to abide by the rules and take responsibility for what's right. You can rest assured about that!"
Lin Pangzi was always good at making polite remarks.
"Xiao Lin, I'm relieved to hear you say that!" Mr. Nong breathed a sigh of relief.
Once things are out in the open, things become much easier.
This team building event had about fifteen people in total, including us.
Besides Hu Ke and several other artists, there were also several high-ranking executives from Datang Film & Television.
The team building event was held in a lakeside resort villa area in Zhujiajiao, Qingpu, which specializes in high-end, private private events.
Apart from us, the people from Datang Film and Television have already gone there.
"Xiao Lin, this time I've booked a villa with a private courtyard, complete with a private karaoke room, bar, cinema, and all the entertainment you could want!"
As he spoke, Mr. Nong handed over a catalog, saying, "Xiao Lin, choose one!"
"Want to choose?"
At first, Fatty Lin didn't understand, but when he took the album, opened it, and looked at a picture of a beautiful woman, he immediately understood.
"Xiao Lin, pick a few more. I've heard you have a nickname in Hong Kong: Fat Motor!" Nong Zong said with a smile.
"Sister K, I didn't expect you to even know my nickname!" Fatty Lin said nonchalantly, flipping through the catalog while nodding, "The quality is pretty high!"
"The company only holds team building activities once or twice a year, so they have to be high-quality!" Boss Nong said with a smile.
"Sister K, Noah's Ark, is that the name of the club?" Fatty Lin asked, pointing to the icon in the brochure in his hand.
"right!"
Mr. Nong nodded, pointed to the brochure, and said, "The handsome men and beautiful women in these pictures are either print models, students from the Shanghai Theatre Academy and the Communication University of China, or some minor celebrities. They're all incredibly talented!"
"I don't know if they're skilled or not, but they're all pretty!" Fatty Lin said as he flipped through the pages.
"Oh ho, there are students from prestigious universities here?"
After flipping through two pages, Fatty Lin was a little surprised.
I leaned over for a look, and the person Fatty Lin was looking at wasn't from an art school, but from a top engineering school.
"So what if someone graduated from a prestigious university?" The Agricultural Association didn't care at all.
"That's true!" Fatty Lin nodded.
At that time, we had no idea that this so-called Noah's Ark would later become the famous White Horse Club.
Although Noah's Ark has gained some fame, it is incomparable to what it will be a few years later. It can only be said that it has its own merits compared to other clubs.
After looking around for a while, Fatty Lin selected two items and said, "Sister K, these two will do!"
"OK!"
Ms. Nong took the catalog without even looking at me, showing no intention of letting me choose. Judging from her expression, she had already done her research on me and Long Nier.
That's good, otherwise, if she made me choose, even if I refused, Long Nier wouldn't let me off the hook.
"Are you disappointed?"
As I was thinking, I suddenly felt a warmth near my ear; it was Long Nier.
"Ni'er, what did you say!"
I said it in a very serious tone.
"Yes, numbers 7 and 10 have been chosen. You can choose the rest!"
While I pretended not to care, Mr. Nong took out his phone and made a call.
"Sister K, who are you calling?"
After Mr. Nong put down his phone, Fatty Lin asked.
"Give us a vice president!"
Mr. Nong smiled and said, "They've already arrived at the villa, but haven't started choosing yet. You just finished choosing, so I'll let them choose one too!"
"Sister K, you're really kind of you!"
Upon hearing this, Fatty Lin gave a thumbs up, as if to say, "If you ever need anything, just say the word, and I'll be the first to step up."
"Xiao Lin, what's the big deal? With our relationship, it's perfectly normal for you to choose first!" Boss Nong said with a smile.
"Sister K, is there any safety issue?" Fatty Lin asked.
"Don't worry, everyone's signed a confidentiality agreement. Anyone who dares to leak information will never have a peaceful life!" Boss Nong patted Fatty Lin on the shoulder and said.
To that end, Mr. Nong gave us a brief overview of the background of Noah's Ark.
She mentioned not only Noah's Ark, but also the remaining clubhouses.
To put it simply, they all have powerful backers, and not just any ordinary people.
In addition, the investors behind the villas we booked this time are also quite influential.
Nowadays, most of the private gatherings organized by the capital circles and film and television companies in Shanghai are held here.
Twenty minutes later, Nong Zong's phone rang.
"Didn't choose?"
After answering the call, Mr. Nong frowned and said, "Okay, I understand, don't worry about it!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
"Sister K, what's wrong?" Fatty Lin asked.
"Yuan Kang didn't select anyone!" the Agricultural Commissioner said coldly.
"A true gentleman, huh?" I said with a smile.
"What a load of rubbish about being a gentleman!" Boss Nong snorted, saying, "It's not that he doesn't want to choose, it's that he's taken a liking to Shuangshuang and wants to impress her!"
"You're quite cunning!" I said with a smile.
"Why don't you look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are!" Director Li snorted at this moment.
After getting on the bus, Director Li rarely spoke. I was a little surprised when he suddenly spoke, and I glanced at him a couple more times.
Upon closer inspection, a problem became apparent.
After he finished speaking, his face showed the indignation of someone else eyeing his beloved toy.
This is very interesting.
Seeing me looking at him, Director Li realized he had lost his composure and smiled as if nothing was wrong to cover it up.
I didn't say anything, I just thought that this Tang Dynasty Film and Television is really interesting.
Half an hour later, we arrived at our destination.
After we got off the car, Ms. Nong led us inside while introducing the villa she had booked.
The villa has three floors. The first floor is a huge banquet hall, a private bar, and a KTV.
The second floor consists of guest rooms for artists, available in single and double occupancy.
The third floor is the exclusive rest area for the senior executives of Datang Film and Television, and the three of us also rested here.
The backyard overlooks the lake and has an open-air terrace with sofas and booths, perfect for drinking and chatting all night long. There's also a small stage in the middle for performances.
There's also a temperature-controlled swimming pool and a card room in front.
The villa is surrounded by walls and greenery, making it completely private and impossible to see inside from the outside.
After giving us a brief tour, Mr. Nong called people down from upstairs.
"Thirteen, Lao Lin, Ni'er!"
Among the next few artists, Hu Ke took the lead.
Upon seeing the three of us, Hu Ke smiled and hurried over to greet us.
"Brother Hu!"
I smiled and went to greet them.
Last time in Beijing, Nong Zong brought Hu Ke to meet us. That time, I gave Hu Ke acupuncture treatment.
Because of this, we got along well, even pleasantly.
Compared to me, Fatty Lin's attention was mostly on a female celebrity behind Hu Ke. That person was none other than Ma Shuangshuang, who was known for her gentle and refined demeanor.
