Chapter 179: This time, sister was truly moved
After entering the club and taking a turn, Fang Ling felt dizzy.
The original amusement park had completely changed.
Although most of the entertainment facilities she used to love were preserved, they had been turned into props for the shooting experience hall.
Her childhood memories had eventually disappeared.
Originally, Fang Ling thought she would cry bitterly, but now standing in the club, she found that her heart was not that sad.
Looking at the familiar Ferris wheel in front of her, Fang Ling felt that perhaps... this was the best ending.
She took out her phone, took a photo.
Then she found Chen Fan's phone number in her contacts and sent him a text message.
"The amusement park in the west of the city is gone."
"Did you know? The amusement park has become a new club."
After a while, Chen Fan's message came.
"You found out?"
Fang Ling: "Is there anyone in Yunhai who doesn't know about this club now?"
Chen Fan: "..."
Fang Ling: "There's even an experience hall here, and there are so many people. Do you want to come and take a look?"
Chen Fan: "..."
Two consecutive ellipses annoyed Miss Fang Ling.
She directly called him.
"What do you mean? You don't want to chat with me?"
Chen Fan smiled bitterly: "No, that's not it."
"Then why did you just send ellipses?"
Chen Fan laughed and cried: "Because I don't know what to say."
Fang Ling looked at the club in front of her and sighed.
"To be honest, I didn't expect this amusement park to be sold."
"Hmm." Chen Fan could only vaguely nod, regretting that he should have told Fang Ling in advance.
"Do you know? Before coming, I was wondering which big villain spent a lot of money to buy such a dilapidated amusement park in the west of the city."
"Even if they took it over and renovated the facilities, it would probably take ten years to break even."
"But when I arrived and took a look, I realized I was so wrong."
After talking for a while and not hearing a response from Chen Fan, Fang Ling was a little annoyed.
"If you don't want to chat with me, you can just hang up."
Chen Fan was embarrassed, "No, that's not it. I was just thinking about how to tell you."
"Tell me what?"
"Actually... I'm the big villain boss you're talking about."
"What do you mean?"
Fang Ling snorted, then her expression froze, and she reacted.
"You... you're saying you bought this place?"
"Ah?"
"Chen Fan. Where are you now? I want to see you right away."
Chen Fan said helplessly: "I'm in the club."
"Where are you, I'll come find you."
Fang Ling mentioned a location and hung up, then she began to search eagerly through the crowd.
Sure enough, soon she saw a familiar figure emerge from the crowd.
As soon as she saw him, Fang Ling eagerly asked Chen Fan.
"Did you really buy this place?"
Chen Fan nodded.
"When?"
"Just after that time you brought me to see it, I thought this place was pretty good, so I spent money to buy it."
This explanation clearly could not satisfy Fang Ling.
"Then you..."
She originally wanted to ask why Chen Fan didn't tell her in advance.
But the words stopped in her mouth.
After all, her boyfriend-girlfriend relationship with Chen Fan was fake, just acting.
He didn't seem to have an obligation to tell her.
Fang Ling looked at Chen Fan with a strange expression.
"You... why did you buy this place?"
Chen Fan shrugged: "It was cheap."
Fang Ling stared wide-eyed, she had considered several possibilities, but never this one.
Chen Fan smiled: "Last time when I came with you, I learned that this place was for sale. I happened to have some savings and wanted to try starting a business..."
"It was actually all a coincidence."
Fang Ling couldn't help but ask: "Starting a business in the western city, aren't you afraid of losing all your capital?"
After asking this question, Fang Ling noticed Chen Fan scratch his head and look around.
Fang Ling immediately understood.
Yes.
Just looking at the lively scene of the club's grand opening, how could he lose all his capital?
Her question was actually a bit redundant.
Seeming to sense the awkward atmosphere, Chen Fan smiled and took the initiative to extend an invitation.
"How about it? Why don't you give it a try. I'll give you a free membership card."
Fang Ling shook her head, then said: "Show me around instead."
"Okay."
So next, Chen Fan took Fang Ling on a tour around the club.
Shooting experience hall, tennis court, badminton court, yoga hall... even the huge artificial lake in the middle, Chen Fan introduced that it would also be developed into an artificial swimming pool in the future.
Fang Ling wasn't completely clueless, her family was in business.
So when it came to business matters, Fang Ling also understood some.
To be honest, after Chen Fan led her around, she found that the business venture he chose was actually quite good.
For this kind of entertainment project, the location didn't need to be right in the city center.
Secondly, Chen Fan picked a great timing.
Currently, there weren't many clubs for people to enjoy in the entire Yunhai, making it a scarce commodity.
Of course, the smart Fang Ling soon realized that what truly made the club a huge hit was actually the F4 promotional advertisement hanging outside.
"When... did you sign the endorsement deal with them?"
Here it comes.
Chen Fan's heart skipped a beat, thinking this girl was indeed not easy to fool.
She discovered the key issue so quickly.
"Right after returning from the New Year's holiday."
Fang Ling thought to herself, it hadn't even been a month since then, and the Meteor Garden show hadn't aired yet, so those four weren't famous at that time.
"I'm really curious how you picked them as the endorsers?"
"As far as I know, those four weren't famous yet back then, right?"
Chen Fan seemed to have known Fang Ling would ask this, and smiled as he gave the answer he had prepared:
"Actually, it was a few coincidences."
"Originally, I planned to sign a few big stars, Richie Jen, Liu Ruoying, Dongli Huoche, Sun Yanzhi..."
"At the time, I thought I could sign whichever of these popular big stars I could reach a deal with. As for F4, I only signed them as a last resort."
"Because those celebrity endorsers asked for too much money that I simply couldn't afford."
Fang Ling didn't expect Chen Fan to give such an answer.
For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Could this be the legendary dumb luck?
Fang Ling didn't believe Chen Fan had any dumb luck.
She preferred to believe Chen Fan had fate on his side.
This could be seen from how he opened two internet cafes within just a few months of starting university.
This guy seemed to have an extremely keen sense for business.
Perhaps he was born to do business.
Fang Ling stared at Chen Fan with some excitement.
"Come work at my family's company."
"I'm officially inviting you, come work at my family's company. As for the position, I can have my dad directly appoint you to the board of directors. The compensation will definitely satisfy you."
Chen Fan smiled wryly, "Why suddenly bring this up? I'm still a student."
Fang Ling shook her head, "It doesn't matter. As long as you agree, I can arrange for you to intern at the company first, and after graduating in four years, you can directly join the board of directors."
Chen Fan shook his head with a bitter smile: "Nevermind, I'm used to being unrestrained, and I enjoy the process of starting my own business more. I'm not used to working under others."
Seeing her invitation to Chen Fan fail, Fang Ling stared at Chen Fan and suddenly gritted her teeth as she spoke.
"If you don't want to come, then... be my boyfriend."
Chen Fan's eyes widened, "What?"
Fang Ling enunciated each word clearly.
"I said... be my boyfriend."
