H City is a well-known tourist city in China. Chen Yiran came to H City for a meeting and inspection this time, just for the next project of Huachuang Group's renovation of the commercial street.
The once most famous commercial street in H City was built 20 years ago. Nowadays, it is increasingly unable to meet the needs of tourists, and some facilities and equipment are becoming more and more outdated. Huachuang Group won the land next to the commercial street, and plans to expand and upgrade it to create a brand-new characteristic commercial street.
The sky was getting dark, Chen Yiran walked alone on the old street, looking at the shops on the street. Many of these shops are old-fashioned brands, but because there has been no change in decades, the turnover has been declining, and some other newly built commercial street food streets have attracted a lot of tourists in recent years.
When passing a handicraft store, Chen Yiran happened to see a building block man in the window. His eyes moved, and he pushed the door and walked into the store.
"Hello, welcome." The store owner was a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. When he saw Chen Yiran, his movements visibly paused.
Chen Yiran was wearing a tall suit, looking like a tourist. I heard that a big boss has come to inspect and discuss the renovation of the commercial street in the past few days. Could it be this big boss
The store owner thought of this, and was finally pulled back to his mind by Chen Yiran's voice: "Is this for sale?"
Chen Yiran held the building block man in the window in his hand.
The store was stunned for a while, then smiled at Chen Yiran and said, "This is a building block man made by Merlot. This series was discontinued more than ten years ago and out of print. I am an old antique."
"I know." Chen Yiran walked to the counter with the building block man, and said to the boss, "Since you put it out, you should be looking for players who want to collect it. You can make a price."
The corners of the boss's lips moved slightly. I didn't expect that the big boss also kept Meile's toys. He didn't speak for a while, as if thinking about what price to give. Chen Yiran didn't urge him either, he just stood there patiently and waited.
After a while, the boss said: "Although the price of this set of building blocks was not expensive at the beginning, the players who collect it know its value. I will not give you random quotations. Someone asked for this series on the Internet before, and you have this one. I didn't sell it for more than 20,000 yuan."
"One hundred thousand." Chen Yiran didn't want to waste time bargaining with him, so he directly quoted a number.
"What?" The boss was stunned, deeply suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
Chen Yiran repeated it again: "One hundred thousand, I want this."
The boss finally recovered from the impact of 100,000 yuan, and both eyes were shining with excitement: "Okay, I'll wrap it up for you right away!"
As if afraid that he would regret it, the boss quickly rummaged through the cabinet: "I still have this set of boxes, I'll find them for you right away."
He took out a flattened box from the bottom of the drawer, folded it again, and carefully put the building block figure that Chen Yiran wanted. Chen Yiran took out the card and handed it to the boss. While helping him swipe the card, the boss asked him diligently, "Do you want anything else? I have a few more building blocks in my cabinet. Do you need them?"
Chen Yiran said: "No, I have all of yours."
"Oh..." The boss thought for a while and then asked, "Then which one do you need? I'll collect it for you, and I'll contact you when I receive it."
Chen Yiran thought about it, took out a business card and handed it to him: "Okay, if you receive it, just call the above number."
The boss took the business card and looked down, the good guy is really the big boss of Huachuang Group.
"Okay, no problem. Which one are you worse off?" The boss smiled more diligently than before, his mouth almost splitting behind his ears.
Chen Yiran said, "The princess is pretending to be a flower."
"Ah..." The boss frowned and found that things were not simple, "This is the original hidden item, very rare."
Chen Yiran looked at him: "Is there any difficulty?"
"No!" The boss seemed to be a Fortune 500 employee at the moment, his spirit changed, "I have a lot of connections, I know someone has this, but it is also a collection, not for sale. But don't worry, I will definitely help You get it!"
"Yeah." Chen Yiran replied lightly, and walked away with the building blocks he had just received.
"Slow down!" The boss took Chen Yiran out of the store's door and let out a long breath.
It turns out that being an elite in a big company is what it feels like.
Quite enjoyable.
When Chen Yiran walked out of the store, he bumped into Fu Oz who was looking for him. Seeing Chen Yiran holding a small box in his hand, Fu Ozun curiously leaned forward to see what it was: "What did you buy?"
"It's none of your business." Chen Yiran put the box in his briefcase without letting Fu Ozun touch it.
Fu Ozun twitched the corners of his mouth and looked up at the sign of the store where Chen Yiran came out: "This is not a sex shop. Is it so secretive?"
Chen Yiran raised his eyebrows slightly, ignoring him: "How do you look?"
Fu Ozun touched his chin and began to report his work: "Not only are the facilities and equipment outdated, but the business philosophy of many shop owners is also outdated, especially some time-honored brands. Now, young people can't be attracted. Just look at the street. The youngest of the two of us."
"..." Chen Yiran said, "It's true that they can't be clingy anymore. I know they like to talk about their feelings and perseverance, but if they continue like this, they will close their doors sooner or later. If they don't change or make progress, they will be eliminated."
"Who says it's not, the landscape here has to be redesigned, and now the young people come, just to take pictures and punch cards."
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Fu." Assistant Wu caught up with them from behind, carrying large and small bags in his hand, "Mr. Chen, these are some special cakes you asked me to buy, and they are the signature cakes of each store. ."
"Try it." Chen Yiran said to Fu Ozun and picked up a cake that he couldn't even name.
"Mr. Chen, let me help you with the bag." Assistant Wu took the briefcase from Chen Yiran's hand. Fu Ozun also picked up a pastry and said to Assistant Wu, "Be careful, he can have treasures in his bag."
"Ah?" Assistant Wu was a little dazed, "What baby?"
"I don't know, he won't let me see it."
"You can't stop your mouth from eating?" Chen Yiran glanced at Fu Ozun sideways and took a bite of the pastry in his hand.
"How is it?" Assistant Wu asked him curiously.
Chen Yiran felt it carefully and commented: "I can't say that it is not delicious, but it may not meet the tastes of today's young people."
Assistant Wu said: "When I went to buy cakes, I also found that the surrounding residents were basically buying them, and there were no young people. But the boss said that this is a recipe handed down by their ancestors, and they have been doing it for generations."
"These things cannot be static. Just like foreign fast food, the taste will also be adjusted in China. To develop, the formula must be adjusted appropriately."
Assistant Wu nodded after listening to what he said.
"You try it too."
"Okay, Mr. Chen."
"By the way, I heard that Li Linlin also came to H City." Fu Ozun finished the cake in his mouth and clapped the residue on his hands. Chen Yiran looked at him with a probing gaze: "Do you care about her?"
"I'm..." Fu Zun smiled helplessly, "their crew is so troubled, there are so many hot searches, why, you still don't know?"
Chen Yiran frowned and asked him aloud, "What happened to the crew?"
"It's nothing. After the show aired, isn't that role that Linlin played? Isn't the role that Linlin played? The heroine quit her job, and the screenwriter and sister Linlin were torn apart."
After Chen Yiran heard this, her brows furrowed a little further: "Shouldn't she reflect on herself first?"
"..." If everyone had your enlightenment, there would be fewer melons in this world.
"Assistant Wu, go and find out the situation." Chen Yiran turned his head and instructed.
"Okay." Assistant Wu held a pile of snacks and nodded, "Mr. Chen, do you want to eat more?"
"No, take it back."
Fu Ozun suggested to Chen Yiran, "Why don't you bring it to Sister Linlin to taste?"
Chen Yiran thought about it and said, "There is still a meeting tonight, so I don't have time."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Fu Ozun expressionlessly: "Also, how many times have I said it? That's my sister, not your sister."
Fu Oz: "… "
I don't think you look like you are treating others as your sister, do you
Li Linlin arrived in H City for two days, and it was basically a rivalry with Shang Ci. After Eugar Xu killed someone, the police have been investigating the matter. Xiao Yiren, a policeman played by Shang Ci, suspected that the matter was related to Eugar Xu, and stared at her very closely.
Lin Zhen and Zheng Yang came over the next day, and they still had the screenwriter by their side. The atmosphere of the crew has eased slightly compared to the previous two days, but everyone still barely speaks in private. Li Linlin is not so sensitive about these things, and she doesn't care, but now everyone is changing the script every now and then, which makes her working hours longer.
"Linlin, look at that man over there, is he someone from Mr. Chen's side?" Wu Hui caught a glimpse of a young man coming from the crew. The director and the producer both went over to greet him, very attentive.
Li Linlin looked in the direction she said, and she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure: "Ah, he was there on the day of the charity party."
Xiaoxi and Xiaoxiao both came from Shengteng, and recognized Fu Zun: "That's Mr. Fu Zun, and the person next to Mr. Chen."
"No wonder." Wu Huiruo realized, "He came to see Shangci?"
"Maybe."
Shangci belonged to Shengteng, and Shengteng was invested by Huachuang Group. Looking at Shangci, Fu Ozun said there was nothing wrong with this logic.
The director also thought that he was here to visit the class Shangci, and he was still thinking about how good Shangci is now, so he was able to alert President Fu to see him in person. After listening to what he said about Shangci with a smile, Fu Ozun asked, "I heard that at the end of this novel, Eugarsh's end was miserable?"
The director was stunned for a moment, but he still didn't switch over: "Ogash? Oh, it's like this in the novel."
In the original novel, in order to show how tragic the ending of Eugarsh is, the author also arranged for her to be sexually assaulted when she was in despair. However, Wang Xin didn't like this kind of plot, so he modified everything that involved it.
Fu Ozun asked the director, "Is it still played like this in the play?"
The director said: "Certainly not, it won't be easy after the trial. What is arranged now is that Ojiaxu was chased by Xiao Yiren to Sanqin Bay and jumped into the sea by himself."
"Jumping into the sea?" Fu Ozun's eyebrows moved, "Is this really jumping?"
"Mr. Fu, you are really joking, we use computer special effects."
"Oh..." Fu Ozun nodded, "We are filming, and the most important thing is safety."
"Yes, yes." You are Kim's father, you can say anything.
"By the way, I heard that the crew had some unpleasant troubles in the past two days."
The director's heart skipped a beat. Did this matter go to President Fu? "There are some internal conflicts, but we have resolved them."
"That's good." Fu Zun smiled brightly, "Linlin and Mr. Chen's sister are good friends, and they can be regarded as half of Mr. Chen's sister. I'll go see her."
Both the director and the producer moved their eyes. Dare that President Fu came here today, for Li Linlin
"He's here, he's here!" When Wu Hui spoke, her voice tightened, "Linlinlinlin!"
"I saw it, I saw it!" Li Linlin opened Wu Hui's fingers one by one and rubbed her arm. She thought that Wu Hui was just afraid of Chen Yiran, but she didn't expect that she was even afraid of Fu Ozun
"Sister Linlin, do you remember me?" Fu Ozun stood opposite Li Linlin, smiling amiably, "I'm Fu Ozun."
"I know." Li Linlin called out after deliberation, "Mr. Fu, do you have anything to do with me?"
Fu Ozun said, "I'm here to speak for President Chen, and he'll invite you to dinner tonight."
"Really?" Li Linlin's eyes suddenly lit up, "But I'm not sure what time I will finish work today."
"It's okay, we'll send a car to pick you up in advance."
Li Linlin nodded, looked at Fu Ozun and said, "If my brother just called me for this kind of thing, why did I ask you to go there in person?"
"Sorry." Fu Ozun sighed, "Isn't he afraid that you will be bullied in the crew, so I must come in person."
Li Linlin blinked: "No one in the crew bullied me, everyone treats me very well."
Especially Lin Zhen.
"That's good." Fu Ozun smiled at her and told her, "I still have a job, so I'll go first. By the way, don't call me President Fu, you can call me Brother Ozun like you're calling me President Chen. ."
Li Linlin: "..."
After Fu Ozun left, the crew soon resumed work. Today's filming went relatively smoothly. Li Linlin finished work before dark, but the male and female protagonists have to continue filming.
The car sent by Chen Yiran was already waiting outside the studio. Li Linlin didn't bring anyone else and got on it by herself. The driver was Assistant Wu, and after seeing Li Linlin, he invited her to eat cakes.
That's right, the ones he bought the day before, he really couldn't finish them all by himself.
"Are these pastries delicious?" Assistant Wu asked her.
Li Linlin nodded again and again: "It's delicious!"
Assistant Wu said with a smile: "These are for President Chen to try yesterday. Both President Chen and President Fu have made a lot of comments."
"That's it." Li Linlin looked at him, "Then these are actually not that delicious."
Assistant Wu laughed, and then heard Li Linlin say: "It's a little too tired, you can make it lighter."
"Well, President Chen also said the same."
Assistant Wu drove the car to a private restaurant. It was already dark, and Assistant Wu led her into the lit courtyard, crossed the pontoon bridge, and walked to the terrace outside the restaurant.
"Wow, Assistant Wu, the landscape here is so beautiful, Xixi must like it very much." Li Linlin admired the surrounding Chinese courtyard scenery, Chen Xi likes this style the most, I'll take a few pictures for her later. .
Assistant Wu said: "This is a new store invested by President Chen, and it has not officially opened yet."
"Oh." Li Linlin nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Brother Yiran has a wide range of business."
The waiter inside helped them open the door. Li Linlin was led in by the waiter alone, but Assistant Wu did not follow.
Chen Yiran sat in the private room and ordered dishes. Li Linlin was led to the door by the waiter and glanced inside curiously.
"What are you looking at?" Chen Yiran couldn't help hooking his lips when he saw her poking face, "Come in."
"Hehe." Li Linlin laughed twice and walked in. The waiter helped her close the door behind her and stood outside waiting to be served.
Li Linlin sat down next to Chen Yiran and couldn't help but look around. This private room is not closed. There is a plum blossom window, which just happens to be able to see the plum blossom trees planted outside. The private room door is facing the direction, and there is a double-opening wooden door. hospital.
"Brother Yiran, this is your new investment store? It's well-built and stylish!" Li Linlin likes the environment and atmosphere here.
Chen Yiran mixed tea in the cup in front of her and replied, "Well, it's still in trial operation, please come and try the dishes first."
