Chapter 84 Top Female Star Comes to Buy
Truly good and rare items naturally have no problem finding a market. Those who hear about these furs and meats fresh from customs will almost certainly not miss out. And Wu Yue, a martial artist, especially loves these wild beasts.
Seeing Wu Yue arrive after hearing the news, and even bring his nominal junior apprentice, Yuan Linghan wasn't surprised at all. They say the entertainment industry is a small circle; after all the twists and turns, it seems everyone is a friend or has some connection.
What surprised Yuan Linghan even more was that Zhao Liying, whom he had contacted before, also came over after hearing the news. She wasn't particularly interested in the meat, but the untanned hides instantly caught Zhao Liying's attention.
Looking at one of the bundles of fur, he asked, "Ling Han, is this a black bear pelt?"
"Hmm! We only brought back three black bear pelts this time. I'm keeping one for myself, and if Ying-jie wants one, I can give you one. Once we find a professional leather craftsman, you can think about what to make it into."
"Give it to me? You're so generous, kid?"
Yuan Linghan, who was being teased, laughed and said, "Sister Ying, it's just a superficial thing. If you really feel unworthy of it, just help introduce me to suitable roles in the future. Taking money would be too vulgar."
Zhao Liying, who had specifically brought Chen Duling along, said with a look of envy upon hearing this, "Dudu, I'm actually a little envious of you! This kid really cares about you!"
Chen Duling blushed at the teasing but didn't say anything. Before returning to Beijing, Yuan Linghan had discussed with her that if any seniors in the industry needed this kind of skin, they should just give it to them for free, making them owe a favor.
As for favors, they were all attributed to Chen Duling, serving as a way to expand her network. The entertainment industry is highly competitive these days, with many new actresses emerging. If Chen Duling wants to break through and become a top star, she likely still has a long way to go.
Following Wu Yue, Wu Jing, also an action star, said at the opportune moment, "Liying, you have to trust me. I'll find you a master craftsman for this bear skin. He's very skilled and should be able to make the bear skin products you want."
"Alright, Jing-ge, thanks then."
"It's alright. I'll just help with the introductions. You'll still have to pay the master craftsman's wages yourself. I'm not as generous as Ling Han."
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. Wu Jing, who had come with Wu Yue, didn't stand on ceremony with Yuan Linghan and asked for four wolf skins and some animal bones. He would use these animal bones to make medicinal wine to treat the hidden injuries that had accumulated in his body over the years.
When everyone saw the three lynx pelts, they were naturally quite envious, but Yuan Linghan said with a wry smile, "Brothers and sisters, I'm really sorry! This time there were only three lynx pelts, and they've all been given away."
"It's alright! These wolf pelts are all top quality; the fur coats made from them will definitely be beautiful."
Of the three lynx pelts, one was reserved for Chen Duling, one was pre-ordered by Jing Tian, and the third was intended for Zhang Chengming, the CEO of Douyin. For Yuan Linghan, Douyin owes a great deal to his current level of fame.
Although Zhang Chengming was wealthy, Yuan Linghan believed he wouldn't refuse such rare furs and meat. He gifted one of the bear pelts to his old comrade-in-arms, Shen Jian. Shen Jian had previously managed the account for him, and it was only right to repay him.
As for the brought-back animal meat, Wu Yue had specially ordered some from the master chef he found. Yuan Linghan didn't accept any money, only asking the chef to help process the bear paws. After cooking, Yuan Linghan planned to use them as gifts later.
All the furs were taken to a professional fur tanner recommended by Wu Jing, and Yuan Linghan entrusted him to tan all the furs. The final product would then be further processed according to individual needs.
In fact, besides these furs, Yuan Linghan also shipped back all the pelts, including those of moose and reindeer. For a seasoned leather craftsman with years of experience, seeing these top-quality pelts was naturally a great pleasure.
He stated directly that he would dedicate his life's work to tanning the furs for Yuan Linghan. After dealing with this matter, the group rushed to the private restaurant recommended by Wu Yue. The chef at this restaurant was an expert in cooking wild game.
To Chen Duling's surprise, just as they were about to head to the private restaurant, she received a call from Jing Tian. Upon learning that Jing Tian was bringing a close friend from the entertainment industry, Chen Duling couldn't refuse.
Yuan Linghan simply smiled and said, "It's alright, all guests are welcome, it's just a matter of having a few more chopsticks!"
Having received permission, Chen Duling naturally didn't say anything more. Wu Yue, Wu Jing, and the others, upon learning that Jing Tian and another top-tier actress were coming, also remained silent. In terms of star power, only Wu Jing among them could be considered a first-tier actress.
Similar to Huang Bo, with whom he had a good relationship, Yuan Linghan also contacted him after returning to China. Upon learning of such a good item, Huang Bo, not wanting to miss out either, immediately ordered two wolf skins and some animal bone wine.
When the group arrived at the private restaurant, Jing Tian and another top female star also rushed over. Because the ingredients were not yet cooked, Yuan Linghan and his group drank tea in the restaurant's waiting room. Upon seeing the two women enter, everyone stood up.
Even in terms of age, Wu Yue and Wu Jing are both older than each other. However, in terms of fame and public recognition, they are naturally inferior. Standing up to greet each other is simply a matter of politeness!
Only Yuan Linghan, who had awakened to the mystery of her unborn child, thought to herself, "It's truly unbelievable that the 'flower of earthly wealth and beauty' and the 'fairy sister' are best friends. But I must say, the two women standing together are indeed a feast for the eyes!"
That's right!
The top female star brought by Jing Tian is Liu Qianfei, a top star from another timeline. In this world, she has also risen to the top, even enjoying a certain international reputation. Among the current top female stars, her commercial brand value is also the highest!
The only difference is that Jing Tian has become an entertainment mogul, while Liu Qianfei, apart from her own studio, has not joined any entertainment company. Because of this, many netizens consider her a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry.
With Jing Tian's introduction, Yuan Linghan shook hands with Liu Qianfei briefly. Although Liu Qianfei felt a little embarrassed, she explained her purpose. Unlike Jing Tian, who had reserved a pelt, she wanted to buy a complete lynx skeleton.
Upon learning the purpose of her visit, Yuan Linghan opportunely said, "Miss Liu, you probably want this bone to make medicinal wine, right?"
"Yes! I heard that soaking animal bones in alcohol can calm the mind, soothe the nerves, and nourish the blood. Although it's a folk remedy, I still want to try it. I originally planned to buy it abroad, but I can't find it right now."
"Alright! Since Miss Liu needs it, why not take the meat back with her? There are two lynxes in the freezer. This kind of meat has quite good nourishing effects, and if someone knowledgeable in medicinal cuisine cooks it, the nourishing effects will be even better."
"Thank you, Mr. Yuan!"
"No need to be polite! Sweetie is Dudu's boss, and you're Sweetie's best friend, so we're friends too. Let's forget about the money. Although these things have been approved for sale, I don't want to get involved in any financial matters."
Since you're a senior figure in the industry, please take care of my girlfriend, Dudu, if there's an opportunity in the future. Although I don't want to enter the entertainment industry, it seems like all my friends are involved now, except for my girlfriend!
Upon hearing this, Wu Yue and the others burst into laughter. Only Chen Duling was deeply moved, feeling that Yuan Linghan was using this method to help her expand her network. With the guidance of these seniors, her future in the entertainment industry was sure to be limitless!
