Zhou Zimeng's eyes widened: "Zhong Yibin, what do you mean?"
"Miss Zhou, our president is talking about official business, you can wait outside." Secretary Jin made a gesture of invitation, and Vice President Li silently stood aside.
Zhou Zimeng angrily followed Secretary Jin to the reception room outside and sat down. She wanted to turn around and leave, but hesitated for a while, but still didn't leave. Sitting on the sofa in the reception room, the little girl in the secretary room poured her a cup of instant coffee.
"Isn't it freshly ground?" Zhou Zimeng frowned after taking a sip.
"Only instant coffee and green tea bags." The little girl said apologetically. In fact, there was a good box of Biluochun in the president's office, but the president said it was only for Chu Qin, and everyone else could only drink tea bags.
"Hey, forget it." In fact, Zhou Zimeng didn't come here often, but he occasionally swiped his card while shopping and came to ask Zhong Yibin to borrow money.
Zhong Yibin talked to Vice President Li and carefully read another project. This is a plan based on sufficient funds. The layout of the scene, the sophisticated equipment, the post-production team, etc., are not at the same level as the previous one. After thinking about it, he called Chu Qin.
"Hello, I'm Chu Qin." A clear and pleasant voice came from the receiver, and Zhong Yibin was instantly refreshed.
"It's me, are you busy?" Zhong Yibin coughed lightly and asked with a smile.
"Well, we're changing the station," Chu Qin held a red pen in his hand and made comments where he thought it was inappropriate, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I just missed you." Zhong Yibin came to ask how he wanted to ask his brother for money, but when he thought about it, Chu Qin didn't seem to be familiar with his brother.
Hearing these straightforward words, Chu Qin's face turned red, but he couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth. In fact, this guy has always had the problem of being clingy. When he didn't lose his memory, he couldn't help but call him for a long time, but he didn't know what to say.
"What are you doing?"
"How about steak tonight?"
"I'll pick you up after get off work tonight."
…
Such meaningless words, but Chu Qin has always listened to them with relish. This is also the reason why Zhong Yibin would find out when Chu Qin disappeared. I heard that when Zhong Yibin didn't get through to Chu Qin's phone at the door of his house, he went to find him before he even entered the house. This is a good habit and one to be encouraged.
"Is there anything you don't remember at work?" Chu Qin plugged in his earphones and worked while chatting.
"It's okay," Zhong Yibin looked at the time, "I can't pick you up after get off work today, I have to go out with my eldest brother to socialize." "Okay, then I'll have dinner with my colleagues." Chu Qin responded casually and followed Lin Xiaoxiao winked.
Lin Xiaoxiao was immediately excited, and gestured "Crayfish" with her mouth. Because the day he was hospitalized, Lin Xiaoxiao stayed up all night to watch over him. At that time, he promised to invite her to eat spicy crayfish, but it has not been fulfilled until now.
After hanging up the phone, Zhong Yibin curled his lips unhappily, thinking that Chu Qin would be disappointed if he didn't pick it up by himself, but in the end he was quite happy. I couldn't help but hit it again.
"What's wrong?" Chu Qin's voice was still gentle and patient.
"Well... I have a project and I want my brother to give me some more money, how can I control him?" He swallowed the stingy words and asked a serious question instead. He didn't remember how he used to get along with his brother. Yes, but from the observations in the past few days, my brother seems to be a good person
Chu Qin also didn't know how the two brothers got along in the past. Zhong Yibin rarely mentioned his brother, and could only give a pertinent opinion: "I don't know how you used to ask him for money, but according to my observation, Brother still loves you a lot, maybe act like a coquettish or something... Can you do it?"
Before the amnesia, Zhong Yibin would occasionally act like a spoiled brat with Chu Qin, but after the amnesia, he became more reckless. Therefore, in Chu Qin's view, this should not be a difficult task.
Coquetry...? Zhong Yibin scratched his head.
"President, Miss Zhou has been waiting for you for a long time." Secretary Jin was urged by Zhou Zimeng several times, but he couldn't bear it anymore, so he came in to remind him.
Zhong Yibin had already forgotten about Zhou Zimeng, frowned, turned around and went to the reception room. Seeing Zhou Zimeng still sitting there, he felt a little strange: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"Should I go?" Zhou Zimeng laughed angrily, and he waited here for almost half an hour, but this person actually said that.
"Didn't you come to drink tea?" Zhong Yibin looked at the two empty cups on the table, the meaning was obvious, you already drank my two cups of instant coffee, do you still want to drink it
Zhou Zimeng stood up and glared at him angrily: "I drank two cups of unpleasant instant coffee, just to talk to you, is that how you treat me?"
"What do you want to say?" Zhong Yibin sat down on the sofa opposite her, crossed Erlang's legs and looked indifferent. The Zhou family's property is still managed by Zhou's father, and has not been handed over to Zhou Zimeng. She is now a second-generation grandfather who is idle and has nothing to talk to Zhong Yibin about.
"I just bought a tie for you." In the past, when she lost her temper, these boys would coax her. Today, Zhong Yibin doesn't seem to want to coax her. Zhou Zimeng put out his anger, sat back on the sofa, and took out from his bag. A nicely packaged tie.
Zhong Yibin didn't even look at the tie, let alone reach out to pick it up: "I ask you, did you call the paparazzi that night?"
"You...what are you talking about..." Zhou Zimeng's face was flustered for a moment, then he quickly calmed down and looked at him with aggrieved expression, "Tonight, I have to go on a blind date, can you accompany me and pretend to be my boyfriend."
Zhong Yibin got up and looked at her condescendingly. The surrounding air seemed to freeze in an instant, and it was terribly quiet. The cold and low voice carried a strong warning: "Zhou Zimeng, you have crossed the line."
Her gifts and unreasonable demands crossed the boundaries that should be observed among friends of the opposite sex; her reckless actions endangered Chu Qin and crossed the bottom line of Zhong Yibin's tolerance for friends.
Zhou Zimeng's hands and feet were cold, tears were rolling in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and looked up at him: "Stingy, if you don't want it, forget it." Then, he lowered his head and stopped looking at him, carrying his handbag, turned and ran away.
In the evening, Zhong Yibin drove to the downstairs of Shengshi Group on time to wait for his brother. Zhong Jiabin came out, glanced at his fancy sports car, and motioned him to give the key to the parking boy.
The driver drove a low-key and gorgeous Bentley. Zhong Yibin touched his nose and got into his brother's car.
Jiulang's office building is located in the Fourth Ring High-tech Industrial Park. There is still a distance from the Second Ring Road to the Fourth Ring Road.
"The person I brought you to meet tonight is called Zhuo Yuan. He is my classmate in the United States. Now he is the operations director of Jiulang. His authority is OK," Zhong Jiabin looked down at the schedule on his phone, "You will come to Group One tomorrow morning. Come, there is a meeting at ten in the morning, we will join us, and I will show you Uncle Ning later."
The person called Uncle Ning by the elder brother of the Zhong family, named Ning Ze, is one of Shengshi's shareholders, holding 2% of the shares. At the same time, he is also a shareholder of Jiulang, holding 4% of the shares, and is a pivotal figure in Jiulang. It can be said that this is the biggest connection between Shengshi and Jiulang.
Zhong Yibin listened carefully to his brother's words and nodded slightly: "But this trivial matter doesn't need to trouble Uncle Ning, right?"
"Be prepared," Zhong Jiabin glanced at his well-behaved younger brother, and couldn't help but say more, "In order to make sure nothing goes wrong, you have to make sure that at least two people are doing this for you, and when necessary, they can also communicate with each other. contain."
This remark is the experience of the Zhong family's eldest brother Shang Hai's ups and downs over the years. After Zhong Yibin heard it, he thought it made sense, "I remember it."
I haven't seen such a well-behaved younger brother for many years. Zhong Jiabin was a little hard to get used to, but the joy in his heart was real, and the corners of his cold and hard mouth couldn't help but bend in an untraceable arc.
The place to make an appointment with Zhuo Yuan is the Imperial Hotel not far from Jilang Company. This hotel is very stylish and looks like a European castle. The walls are white marble, the windows are colored glass, and the red gate is five meters high and made of thick wood. Retro and gorgeous.
In the splendid lobby, waiters in medieval dresses greeted them cordially and took them to their reserved rooms.
Zhong Yibin followed behind his brother, and felt that the figure that flashed past was familiar, so he turned his head to look up the stairs. The wide stairs were covered with a red carpet, and one person was wearing a black suit, walking up slowly. The pace of walking was very special, one step at a time, as if an emperor was walking on the steps.
After a slight pause at the corner, Zhong Yibin could see the man's face clearly. It was Yu Tang, the young president of Big Fish Group, whom he met at the dinner last time.
"You've already arrived!" Zhuo Yuan rushed here after get off work and happened to meet them in the hall. Seeing Zhong Yibin looking up, he couldn't help but turn his head to look, "Huh? Director Huang?"
Following Yu Tang, there was a middle-aged man, because Yu Tang's momentum was too strong, he was ignored by Zhong Yibin for a while.
"Are you a director of your company?" Zhong Jiabin asked casually, signaling Zhuo Yuan to come in.
"Well, he's a major shareholder." Zhuo Yuan was very handsome, his eyes were shining, his face was always smiling, and he had the usual temperament of those who do sales operations.
There is no particularly good entertainment company under Big Fish, there is only one big day media, which is not taken seriously, and other industries do not need the publicity of Jilang. It is a bit unusual for the major shareholder of Jiulang to have dinner with the president of Dayu Group. Zhong Jiabin frowned and was silent for a while, raised his hand, and the assistant on the side immediately lowered his head and explained a few words, and the assistant turned around and went out.
