If it’s because of Sisyphus Pictures and Hall Ventures, then many things make sense. For George Hall, this is definitely a golden opportunity. He has not experienced such a large project so far. He is responsible for managing the trust fund of the wealthy family at Barclays Bank:

On the one hand, he can inject capital into Hall Venture Capital and earn high returns through this investment, and then open up his career; on the other hand, he can use Sisyphus Pictures to connect British upper-class people with Hollywood, and even " Winning the opportunity to have close contact with Lan Li is undoubtedly very attractive to the younger generation of nobles, elites, and political and business celebrities.

This is enough to put George and Elizabeth down.

What's more, it's just a blank postcard, which means it's a test. At least they can test Lan Li's attitude and reaction before making a decision.

The more Arthur thought about it, the more he felt reasonable. He raised his hands and rubbed his cheeks hard. "God, their masks are even uglier than I thought. They used me to build a network of contacts. Forget it, we can be regarded as Mutual benefit and mutual benefit, at least not too dirty, but what's the matter with Renly? How can they do this?"

"Arthur, what are you talking about? What happened to Hall Ventures?" Edith didn't know much about economics and management. There would be no way to connect it for a while, so she knocked on the coffee table next to her with her piano bow. Arthur explained.

"Simply put, the benefits that Lan Li can leverage are huge enough to make them feel excited. Have you seen the news about the box office numbers of Interstellar? The Times said that investing in Lan Li with one dollar can win more than The gain of one thousand dollars is just an estimate, but here is the meaning..."

Arthur explained it babblingly, connecting Sisyphus Pictures, Hall Ventures, Don Quixote Channel, etc., and sketching out a magnificent blueprint. Edith gradually understood that even though she described herself like this 'S parents are really inappropriate, but now only the word "cheeky" flashes in Edith's mind.

Arthur probably wouldn't object, but Arthur still habitually held the cello, and his bookish appearance seemed incompatible with the content of his words. That appearance fell in Lan Li's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile.

"Lan Li, is this really the case?" Edith turned her head to look at Lan Li, but found that Lan Li's mouth was smiling and she was in a relaxed mood. This made Edith stomped her feet in annoyance. "Lan Li! We are worrying about you now, what is the matter with your expression?"

"I'm just thinking that there are still a lot of things that have changed since I was a child." Lan Li is still in that unhurried appearance, speaking slowly.

What has not changed is that Edith and Arthur’s performances have not improved; what has changed is that the brothers and sisters who have always kept their distance are getting closer. Now Edith and Arthur, they are the real In my family, some people are worried that someone cares, that kind of feeling is good.

But Edith looked at Lan Li's unhurried appearance, and her temper was not slapped, "Hey! We are serious, and you better be serious! From the past to the present, the same thing is that you still hate you so much. ! It's like a thorn in a fart/strand."

"Thank you!" Not only was Lan Li not angry, but he also took the conversation. The self-satisfied appearance was really too awkward. The Edith stood there and began to grind his teeth without knowing it: Should she beat him? He should still be beaten!

Lan Li pursed the corners of his mouth, seemed to sense Edith’s intentions, and said with a smile, “It’s a great time now. I’ve been sick for so long. After I missed it, I don’t know when, how? Don't think about doing it now?"

Is Renly inviting Edith to attack?

Edith turned her head and glanced at Arthur, and then she could see that Arthur kept using her eyes to express her veto: Never be deceived by Renly's angel mask. The devil is the devil. It hasn't changed since childhood, okay?

Edith widened her eyes and blinked her eyes constantly to express her protest: If it weren't for today, then there might never be a chance. Are you sure not to vent your anger today?

Arthur closed his jaw and showed a surprised expression: How are you going? He is sick!

Edith pursed the corner of her mouth, and shrugged her shoulders to strengthen her meaning: Don't worry, I am only going to take off one of his hands, and I won't make it too heavy.

Lan Li was sitting next to the piano, quietly watching Edith and Arthur winking at each other, the curvature of the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise in this way. In fact, he somewhat enjoyed the time like this.

In the previous life, he was an only child and grew up alone, and because of his mother’s grand plan, he didn’t even have many friends; in this life, although he is no longer an only child, the connection between them is almost negligible. Regardless, he once thought that he might have no relationship with family in this life. Matthew, Andre and Paul's group of friends are the best to rely on, but now it seems that time can change some things.

Although Arthur and Edith were jointly complaining about him, the appearance of the same anger and hatred between them made Lan Li feel interesting.

Originally, Lan Li’s mood was slightly depressed because of Elizabeth’s blank postcard. He clearly understood what this postcard meant. Others saw the glory and glory of Lan Li, but George and Elizabeth only saw the halo. The benefits that can be brought are his father and mother, he will not be sad or painful, just a little bit sorrowful, nothing more.

There is a gap between the virtual space and the real world. Similarly, there is a gap between the life of the Hollywood lantern shade and the life outside the spotlight.

Now, the depressed mood gradually became clear again, because Arthur and Edith in front of him were his brother and sister. There are always gains and losses in life. There is no need to embarrass yourself because of temporary gains and losses. If you lose the mulberry and harvest the mulberry, you can always find your own sunshine in the corners of life, right?

"Lan Li?" Edith noticed that the effect of Lan Li's illness was still very obvious, and the concentration efficiency of her attention was also reduced.

This kind of blue gift is rarely seen since childhood. In the past, Lan Li always hid his weakness well, only Matthew's group of friends could see it, and they would never know it; of course, they themselves did the same, and refused to show their weakness in front of their family. .

This is really a kind of irony: the family that was supposed to be a safe haven to tolerate, protect and support themselves has evolved into an empty and boring body in them, so cold that people just want to escape. They have known each other all their lives, but only now have they really started to understand each other.

Lan Li raised his gaze and smiled to meet Edith and Arthur's gaze, "I just said, I don't know when I missed this opportunity. Are you sure you don't clenched your fists?"

Edith rolled her eyes and complained mercilessly at Lan Li, "What I am more concerned about now is, why did my mother send you a blank postcard? It's really because of Hall Ventures and Sisyphus. Film industry? Please stay focused. We are discussing business, professional, okay?"

Lan Li nodded with a chuckle, "Yes, nor is it."

"Ren Li Sebastian Hall!" Edith could already hear her teeth grinding.

"I want to say that you all underestimate them and can let them break the deadlock first. Sisyphus Pictures and Hall Venture Capital are indeed important driving factors, but the weight is still not enough. They need more heavy chips. Edith , They are more greedy than you think. Or to put it another way, they are smarter than you think."

At the end of the words, Lan Li looked at Arthur who had worked with George and Elizabeth for many years, and Arthur knew nothing more about the abilities and strength of his parents.

Arthur thought about it carefully. He originally thought that Hall Ventures would be enough, but when he thinks about it seriously, Hall Ventures has just been established and has not yet been profitable. This cake looks good but not sure about the taste. How, if you want George and Elizabeth to bow to Lan Li, the weight is still not enough.

But Arthur caught a detail, "Father also knows about postcards?"

Earlier, Arthur had guessed, and Elizabeth’s postcards are likely to be known to George, and Arthur has expanded his thoughts along this line of thought, but the thoughts are after all just thoughts, and suddenly realized the authenticity, which makes Arthur's vocal cords couldn't help tightening slightly, and the meaning was still different after all.

Lan Li raised his eyebrows~www.novelhall.com~ Without denying, Arthur and Edith exchanged sights again: If Elizabeth’s postcard represents the Hall and his wife, then the meaning is completely different, even if George does not. Signed, that also means that this is the decision of the Hall family, does it...does the Hall family really want to "recruit an" Lanli?

So, George is willing to put down his figure, just because of Sisyphus Pictures and Hall Ventures?

Just after analyzing it, I still felt that the head was right, but now Arthur started to question his judgment, because this step was too sudden and too exaggerated. When it really happened, he still needs a little time to digest it, and I always feel that it is not real.

"The Queen sent a formal letter asking if I would accept the knighthood. When I was promoting the film in London, Philip sent the letter to Notting Hill; when I arrived in Honolulu, Elizabeth’s postcard was delivered. Philip wrote to tell me that Elizabeth sent this postcard in front of George."

Lan Li gave the answer, and the understatement was simply uttered, but the explosiveness of the content created a sharp contrast, so that Arthur and Edith were a little stunned.
