Chapter 864 964. Woman's Heart

At 7 o'clock that evening, Nie Wei came to a private room in a hotel in Kyoto with Zhou Xun and Cheng Kun. After the three of them entered the private room, within five minutes, Zhang Ziyi came in with her agent, who was also her sister-in-law Yin Xu.

Seeing Zhou Xun and Cheng Kun, Zhang Ziyi did not show any surprise. As early as the morning call, Nie Wei said that he would bring a few friends with him.

The intention was also very simple. Of course, it was not to support the scene. After all, this was not a fight. It was necessary to bring more than one person. The main thing was to bring a few friends. Even if the media took pictures at that time, it would not give the media much excuse to play.

But if no one was brought, and only Nie Wei and Zhang Ziyi were having dinner in this private room, if they were photographed by the media, it would most likely be written into a scandal by the media. They would not care that Nie Wei was married and Zhang Ziyi had a fiancé, and they would even make a fuss about these, so Nie Wei had to be on guard.

"Ziyi, hello." After seeing Zhang Ziyi enter the room, Zhou Xun stood up and took the initiative to say hello.

The two had worked together once in Director Feng's "Night Banquet", so they knew each other.

"This is Cheng Kun. This should be the first time you meet, right?" Nie Wei smiled and introduced Cheng Kun to Zhang Ziyi, but after hearing what Nie Wei said, Cheng Kun and Zhang Ziyi shook their heads at the same time.

"Although we have never worked together, this is not the first time we have met."

"Yes, Ziyi and I are both spokespersons for Tissot watches, and we met at a product promotion event." Cheng Kun and Nie Wei explained.

"Hey? Doesn't that mean that Miss Zhang and I have known each other the shortest time?" Nie Wei pretended to be surprised and said.

"What's the time period? The key is that you two are very compatible. Our Ziyi has admired President Nie for a long time." Yin Xu on the side suddenly took over.

Nie Wei glanced at her, and Yin Xu gave Nie Wei a standard smile.

Nie Wei was not unfamiliar with this woman, because she was also a student of Kyoto Film Academy, and was in the same grade as Nie Wei, but the two did not interact much. Nie Wei dropped out of school after only a few days in the class at that time. When he returned to Kyoto Film Academy, Yin Xu was already a sophomore.

She graduated from Kyoto Film Academy, so she was naturally an actress, but she did not achieve much in her acting career. Instead, she married a famous husband, Zhang Ziyi's brother, and became Zhang Ziyi's sister-in-law. She became really popular in the circle.

After marrying Zhang Ziyi's brother, she gradually retired from the film industry and became Zhang Ziyi's agent. In fact, many of Zhang Ziyi's domestic businesses were handled by this sister-in-law.

"Mr. Nie, this is not my wishful thinking, right?" Zhang Ziyi asked Nie Wei, and put on a pitiful look, as if Nie Wei was such a hateful and unfaithful person.

Nie Wei smiled, raised the red wine in his hand and toasted Zhang Ziyi, saying: "Since we get along well, it's too strange to call me Nie Wei anymore, just call me Nie Wei."

"Then don't call me Miss Zhang, just call me Ziyi like Kun'er and Xun'er." Zhang Ziyi followed Nie Wei's words and directly brought the relationship closer.

Looking at Zhang Ziyi who was smiling like spring breeze, Nie Wei really admired this woman's emotional intelligence.

Nie Wei knew clearly that Zhang Ziyi must have doubts about himself or Huayi about the previous news.

After all, it is impossible to arrange such news completely cleanly. Not to mention the Internet, a place like a newspaper is simply a wall with wind on all sides. No matter how well you arrange it, as long as someone is willing to check, they will eventually find some clues.

Of course, it is impossible for the other party to get any definite evidence, and Nie Wei dares to guarantee this.

Even if the other party is suspicious, Nie Wei knows that they have no way.

In this situation, if ordinary people knew that someone was plotting against them, even if they had only a little suspicion, they would inevitably hate the person who was plotting against them. Some petty people would even identify the person as an enemy regardless of whether there was evidence or not.

But Zhang Ziyi was different. Not to mention being very polite, she was very polite every time she called Nie Wei, and greeted him with a smile when they met. She even tried to take this opportunity to get closer to Nie Wei.

It is undeniable that Nie Wei admired Zhang Ziyi's emotional intelligence. She did not focus on unnecessary anger, but took this opportunity to try to get closer to Nie Wei. After all, according to common sense, people who did something to hurt others behind their backs should feel a little guilty.

If they could get closer, Zhang Ziyi would naturally have plenty of opportunities to make up for the loss of this scandal from Nie Wei in the future.

It was because Nie Wei guessed Zhang Ziyi's thoughts that Nie Wei admired this woman.

But in Nie Wei's opinion, this woman is really too calculating. It's not that her personality is bad. In fact, in this circle, Zhang Ziyi's personality is the most suitable. She is smooth and does not offend anyone. She can turn enemies into relatives, but Nie Wei just thinks that this person lives too hard.

For a period of time afterwards, everyone ate and drank while chatting about some interesting things in life. Zhang Ziyi took care of everyone, but she was mainly chatting with Nie Wei.

This woman is also very talented in chatting, and even makes Nie Wei feel that she is a bit like himself. Neither of them is the kind of person who talks endlessly, but they are good at listening and know how to grasp the thoughts of the chat partner.

It's just that today she was facing Nie Wei, and Zhang Ziyi's level was obviously still a little bit lower, so the topic was always controlled by Nie Wei. However, even if she was led by Nie Wei, Zhang Ziyi's response was quite decent, which made Nie Wei, who knew that the other party could cater to him, very interested in talking more.

After eating most of the meal, everyone had stopped eating. Nie Wei saw that the time was almost right, and finally took the initiative to speak to Zhang Ziyi.

"Ziyi, are you busy recently?"

After Nie Wei said this, Zhang Ziyi's eyes suddenly lit up. As early as in the morning, when she heard Nie Wei agree to her invitation, she vaguely felt that Nie Wei was looking for her for something. Now that she heard Nie Wei say this, she was even more certain that Nie Wei had something to ask of her.

Although she didn't know what Nie Wei, such a powerful figure, would ask her for, this was obviously a good opportunity to get closer to her, and she also believed that with Nie Wei's level of dealing with people, he would not ask her anything too difficult.

"It's okay, Nie Wei, do you have anything to do?" Zhang Ziyi asked curiously.

This also attracted the attention of Zhou Xun and Cheng Kun, and everyone looked at Nie Wei.

"I do want to ask you for a small favor." Nie Wei said directly: "Have you seen the documentary "The Road to the Grandmaster", the first Baguazhang master we visited, Mr. Cheng, is going to open a martial arts school in Kyoto. I hope you can spare a day and go with me to help cut the ribbon."

Hearing this, Zhang Ziyi hadn't answered yet, but Yin Xu's eyes lit up.

If someone else had mentioned cutting the ribbon for a martial arts school, Yin Xu would have laughed and rolled his eyes, and then used a string of reasons to make the other person unable to take care of himself.

After all, Zhang Ziyi is a top star in China. Apart from those world-class brands, who can invite her? Not to mention anything else, the cost of Zhang Ziyi cutting the ribbon alone is an astronomical figure for many people.

Not to mention the martial arts school, even if the other party is a very famous martial arts predecessor, what does it have to do with Zhang Ziyi?

She felt from the bottom of her heart that it was a very low thing to let Zhang Ziyi cut the ribbon for such a martial arts school.

But since this matter was brought up by Nie Wei, the nature of it was completely different. Cutting the ribbon was such a simple activity that could earn Nie Wei's friendship. Is there any more cost-effective deal than this?

Yin Xu even thought about it for a moment. If he wanted to sell a favor, he should sell it thoroughly. He didn't even charge any fees. He turned the transaction into a favor. This was much better than the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

After all, this was Nie Wei's favor. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was worth a million dollars.

"This is easy. What day is the martial arts school opening? I will definitely clear Ziyi's schedule for that day." Yin Xu assured Nie Wei.

"It should be within this week, no problem?" Nie Wei answered Yin Xu, and then asked Zhang Ziyi again.

"No problem. If I don't help with this little thing, I'm afraid you will break up with me." Zhang Ziyi smiled and joked, and readily agreed to Nie Wei.

"You also said that I would never break up with you because of such a small matter, but I still have to thank you here. I'll toast you a glass." Nie Wei picked up the red wine glass and drank the half glass of red wine in the glass.

Seeing Nie Wei's action, Zhang Ziyi and Yin Xu looked at each other and saw joy in each other's eyes.

"Then I'll drink it too." Zhang Ziyi also raised the red wine glass in her hand and drank it generously.

Zhou Xun and Cheng Kun on the side knew that it was obvious that Nie Wei and Zhang Ziyi had reached some tacit understanding. After this little episode, the atmosphere of the dinner party was getting better and better. They had been eating for more than two hours before everyone went home.

As expected, there were reporters guarding the door when they went out.

Zhang Ziyi was obviously in a good mood. Seeing that the reporter Hou did not avoid him, she made a cute scissor hand gesture towards the camera raised by the other party, and then followed Yin Xu into her nanny car and left.

Nie Wei was picked up by Luo Kai after thanking Cheng Kun and Zhou Xun.

Sitting in the car, Nie Wei opened the window, facing the cool night breeze, sobering up while thinking about today's events.

Tonight, he owed Zhang Ziyi a favor for the martial arts gym. It seemed to be a very uneconomical deal, but all this was based on the premise that Nie Wei had already thought about it.

That was Nie Wei's new movie. When Nie Wei finished the script, he had already wanted to find a famous enough actress to play the leading role.

In this regard, not only should she be famous in China, but she should also be famous internationally.

Among the many actresses of Huayi, only Li Binbin, who had starred in "Assassin's League", was barely qualified, but she had just taken the second female role in a movie in the United States, which obviously conflicted with the time he wanted to shoot.

And in Nie Wei's mind, there was a more suitable candidate, and that person was naturally Zhang Ziyi.

As one of the few domestic actors who could be named "international" before the star, Zhang Ziyi was obviously qualified to take on the leading role of such a big production.

Moreover, Zhang Ziyi is top-notch in terms of fame, image, and acting skills.

Having such an actor join the cast is also of great benefit to the film itself.

This is why Nie Wei made that request tonight. On the contrary, in Zhang Ziyi's view, this heroine is a "compensation" for her, so it doesn't matter whether she owes less or more.

Just in time for the hit of "The Grandmaster", I asked Zhang Ziyi to promote Mr. Cheng's martial arts school.

Three days later was the auspicious day for the opening. With the help of Nie Wei, the equipment of the martial arts school was quickly prepared. After the date was selected, everything was ready for the official opening.

For this reason, Nie Wei also used the promotional channel of Weibo to advertise the martial arts school. In addition, Nie Wei also published an advertisement in the newspaper. For a time, the news that Cheng's martial arts school would open in Kyoto had spread throughout the streets and alleys of Kyoto. Even many martial arts enthusiasts flew to Kyoto from afar just to worship Mr. Cheng.

On the opening day, Nie Wei arranged reporters from more than ten newspapers to interview, and the joint appearance of Nie Wei and Zhang Ziyi attracted thousands of people to watch.

If there were no police and security guards to maintain order, the entire intersection would be paralyzed by this big scene.

On that day, Mr. Cheng also showed up and personally hung a plaque with the words "Filial Piety" awarded by the court to the ancestors of the Cheng family in the main hall of the martial arts hall.

Mr. Cheng looked at the plaque hidden under the bed for many years and finally saw the light of day again. His eyes couldn't help but moisten again. He felt that this time the plaque saw the light of day, and it was also the time for their Cheng family to recreate the glory of their ancestors.

With the end of the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the martial arts hall was officially opened to the public. Most of the onlookers wanted to go in and join in the fun, but because the martial arts hall had limited space, only 500 people would be allowed in at a time. The rest had to queue up to see it.

When they heard that they had to queue up, some people left, but the length of the queue did not decrease at all. Instead, it became longer and longer as time went by.

This was a busy job for dozens of martial arts hall staff who had only been trained for half a month.

After a whole day of reception, they were so dry-mouthed. Of course, after Nie Wei announced that the bonus at the end of the month would be doubled, they were very happy again.

In terms of the operation of the martial arts school, Nie Wei has already found a professional manager. The Cheng family is only responsible for teaching apprentices. In terms of the martial arts school's profits, Mr. Cheng's family can get 50% of the martial arts school's profits, and Nie Wei does not take a penny of the other 50%. Instead, he donates it to the martial arts development fund once a year in the name of himself and the Cheng family to help develop the national martial arts cause.

Although Nie Wei does not know where the money will be used, he must stand firm in the righteousness. He has benefited from martial arts, so he naturally has to give back.
