How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?-Chapter 532 - 244: 2 Billion in Petty Cash
"Gu Heng."
When Gu Heng was deep in conversation with a group of film and TV industry magnates, a crisp voice rang out by his ear.
Holding a champagne flute, Gu Heng slowly turned around and took a glance.
The speaker was none other than Ouyang Nana, whom he hadn't seen for nearly two months.
And apart from Ouyang Nana, there were three other people by her side, the same small group he had been chatting with earlier: Yang Zi, Yang Hanshu, and Re Ba.

Ouyang Nana was wearing a black deep-V dress, which forcibly accentuated a cleavage on her otherwise flat terrain. Aside from a decent face, there wasn't much to look at in terms of her figure.
But the others were a different story...
Both Yang Zi and Re Ba had figures of certain scale, displayed to perfection in their dresses, curvaceous and full.
And as for Yang Hanshu...
Well, that goes without saying...
Though she was nearly 40 years old, she had maintained herself very well, with skin as firm as a young girl's - but that was just the basics. The most eye-catching part was the deep cleavage revealed beneath her dress...
Clad in a traditional Chinese-style robe dress, she wore simple banquet makeup, and as for jewelry, aside from her earrings and bracelet, she didn't match it with anything else.
Even with such a simple look, her sharp character was hard to conceal...
The former Yang Hanshu was just a minor actress, hardly exuding any remarkable aura, but the current Yang Hanshu had definitely become an established figure in the entertainment industry. Although not as significant as the big shots, she had set herself apart from the average stars, radiating an aura full of confidence and pride.
Gu Heng only took a quick look around and did not let his gaze linger too long on Yang Hanshu, Re Ba, and Yang Zi.
Through the TV screen, he might have managed to appreciate them a bit more deeply.
But in circumstances like these...
It wasn't appropriate...
After all, he was now a powerful capital magnate with influence throughout Hua Country. It wouldn't do, at such a high-end event, for him to be gaping at three female stars like some lecher - what sort of behavior was that?
Upon this thought, a mocking smile appeared on Gu Heng's face as he said, "I heard that you've clung onto my coattails for some publicity, and you've started to rise to fame again? What, have you come to thank me today?"
In recent times, Gu Heng could be said to be the person of the hour on the entire internet.
Perennially dominating the hot searches on major platforms, his influence was even a bit stronger than that of Principal Wang back in the day.
After all, Principal Wang was only notorious for flaunting wealth and picking fights, never truly doing anything outlandishly rebellious.
But what about Gu Heng?
When it came to flaunting wealth...
Two private jets worth over 6 billion RMB, not only in the country but even on a global scale, it was kind of unique. Without any exaggeration, the number of people in Hua Country who could match Gu Heng's level of opulence was very few and far between.
Not to mention that his recent lawsuit against 14,000 people and the establishment of the Internet Violence Assistance Foundation had swept across the entire internet.
The former Principal Wang was only popular among the young, but Gu Heng now had a certain level of fame among both the young and the older generation.
Ouyang Nana had at least been involved in a romance rumor with Gu Heng for a while two months ago, and this had somewhat tied her to him.
During the peak of Gu Heng's popularity, numerous marketing accounts popped up on Weibo and TikTok, suggesting in veiled terms that Ouyang Nana was Gu Heng's girlfriend, leading the uninformed netizens to push her into the hot search.
In truth, Gu Heng knew that Ouyang's team was behind it, but he chose not to intervene, and her team had also been measured, not pushing it too far to irritate him.
Regardless, there was still a hint of ambiguity in his relationship with Ouyang Nana. If she could use this bout of popularity to reemerge on the scene, it could be considered a favor from him.
Upon hearing Gu Heng's teasing, Ouyang Nana laughed a little, embarrassed...
"Actually, it was my marketing team behind this, and I only found out afterward. If you mind, I can ask them to stop later."
Gu Heng didn't bother with her excuses. Could a marketing team override the studio's boss and manipulate public opinion on their own? Such claims were plain foolishness, but Gu Heng was too lazy to expose her. After all, with so many people around, he couldn't exactly force Ouyang Nana to admit that she had directed her team to control public opinion and fabricate a romance rumor with him, could he?
He then waved his hand dismissively and said, "Alright, I've been pretty busy lately and can't be bothered with these things. Just make sure your marketing team doesn't go overboard."
"Uh-huh!"
Ouyang Nana nodded her little head eagerly, her face beaming with happiness.
To her, Gu Heng's non-opposition was as good as his approval. She wanted to do more than just stir up a romance rumor; she aspired to make it a reality.
If she could become Gu Heng's girlfriend, her status in the entertainment circle would undoubtedly soar, and with Gu Heng's protection, no underhanded rules would ever reach her. Moreover, her future prospects would be unrivaled.
The rationale was simple. Though resources in the entertainment circle were fiercely contested, they could actually be given to anyone.
But if she became Gu Heng's girlfriend, securing resources for herself would mean currying favor with such a big shot as Gu Heng, and who wouldn't be willing to do him such a favor?
Despite her young age, Ouyang Nana's ambition was by no means less than that of any star in the whole lounge.
Just then, Yang Hanshu, who had been quietly listening on the side, seized the moment when their casual conversation ended, chiming in, "I had no idea Nana was so well-acquainted with Mr. Gu. It seems I've made the right move coming here with you to network."
