It was already late at night, Xie You hung up the phone, and drew messy lines on the white paper with the pen tip. The suit on his body was still meticulously dressed, and he habitually kept his back straight, thinking about the information he just got—three hours ago, Song Ke transferred a large sum of money to a foreign foundation through a hidden account, and The night before, there was a quarrel with Ding Zhaoxian at the dinner.
And at this morning's regular meeting, Song Ke uncharacteristically rejected Ding Zhaoxian's proposal in person, leaving no room for it.
Ding Zhaoxian's complexion was not very good at that time.
At this time, there were three beeps, and the door of the study was knocked. Xie You put the pen in his hand on the table, "Come in."
When he saw someone, he didn't show it on the face, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart, "How is it?"
He Shan was dull-tempered, and when Xie You asked, he replied, "I accept it."
The corners of Xie You's tensed lips relaxed, he controlled the expression on his face, and continued to ask indifferently, "Did he say anything?"
He Shan replied truthfully, "Yes."
"what?"
"Let's return the thermos next time."
Xie You's finger resting on the table shrank slightly, "What?"
He Shan thought that Xie You didn't hear clearly, and repeated clearly, "Let me return the thermos next time."
Xie You fell silent—
Obviously, it has already been given to him, so do you want to go back
After thinking for a long time, Xie You told He Shan, "You do something tomorrow."
Before going to class the next day, Yu Nian took the elevator upstairs and went to Meng Yuan's office.
In the office, Meng Yuan was holding a cup of coffee and looking at his phone. Seeing Yu Nian coming in, he pointed to the sofa chair opposite him, "Are you here so early?"
After Yu Nian sat down, he shook the phone screen again, "How did you think of the Weibo about bubble tea last night?"
"I happened to be making a pot of tea at the time, and remembering Brother Meng, you said you wanted to post more on Weibo, so I took a picture and posted it." Yu Nian was puzzled, "Is there something wrong?"
"Of course no problem. You can post more Weibo like this in the future, which will be very helpful in shaping your personal image and temperament." Meng Yuan pressed his finger on the screen to scroll down, and swiped out a lot of comments.
"Niannian can still make tea! Ahh, Zai Zai is so good, my mother is so relieved!"
"—Niannian's hand is really beautiful! It's decided, the next wallpaper will be you!"
"—It's so elegant to make a pot of tea at home in your spare time! What kind of treasure is it that I'm a fan of??"
Meng Yuan looked at it comfortably, and just as he turned off his phone and was about to look up, the corner of his eye suddenly froze, and his gaze was fixed on Yu Nian's wrist.
He looked at it very carefully, and said hesitantly, "The pair of cufflinks you are wearing today, why do they look...so familiar?"
Yu Nian also looked at it himself, and smiled with the corners of his lips raised, his eyes seemed to be filled with light, "It's very pretty, isn't it?"
"It's pretty, it matches your temperament, it's—" Meng Yuan always felt that the cuff buttons looked familiar, and after thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly slapped his thigh, "I remembered! The collection of the Vijay family! It used to belong to the European royal family This is one of the dowry. It was put up for auction and bought by the Vijayri family for collection! I said why it looks so familiar, I saw a picture of it when I was researching collectible jewelry!"
After he finished speaking, he thought about it and felt that it was wrong, how could this kind of thing be worn in Yu Nian's hand, so lightly
"Is it an imitation style?"
Yu Nian nodded, "Well, the imitation, my friend bought it for me, two hundred." As he spoke, the smile in his eyes faded away, like a sparkling lake.
Meng Yuan didn't notice his expression, and took another look, "The imitation is pretty good, at least it's not different from the picture, and your friend's aesthetic level is also pretty good." A few pieces of paper were handed over to Yu Nian, "Look, this is the endorsement I mentioned to you two days ago."
"The emerald emerald makeup endorsement?" Yu Nian stretched out his hand and listened to Meng Yuan's words while watching.
Meng Yuan sat upright and introduced to Yu Nian earnestly, "Behind this brand is the old luxury brand 'Hessy'. Fei Leng Cui is a new line launched last year. The price is about the same as that of a local girl who saves money. It has a high level of market coverage and strong style. The recognition abroad is already very good, and now it is preparing to enter the domestic market.”
Yu Nian looked at the contract, "Well, I've heard of Hersey's brand, it's very expensive." He remembered that Yu Qing liked the bags and silk scarf perfumes of this company.
"That's right, under the banner of a veteran luxury brand, at least there will be no quality problems or other moths, otherwise I will get into trouble." Meng Yuan pointed to the contract, "The price of Fei Leng Cui Psychedelic Sea Lipstick Spokesperson, if you think it's okay, we'll sign it."
Meng Yuan was very careful, and attached all the relevant information about the Fei Leng Cui brand to the back of the contract, including the overall evaluation of foreign brands and other data. Yu Nian spent six or seven minutes reading it, nodded, and made a quick decision, "Then sign it."
Meng Yuan couldn't help but muttered a few more words, "Okay, we choose the endorsement, and we don't need to be smart, so that although we won't make a lot of money in the early stage, it will be very stable, and the road ahead will not collapse."
He likes to cooperate with Yu Nian more and more - he is clear in his heart, he does not demean himself and doubts, he is not drifting, he can trust each other, and it makes sense to be reasonable. The point is that he has good talent and works hard. !
But thinking of the phone call he received in the morning, the smile on Meng Yuan's face faded a little, "I have something to tell you first."
Yu Nian asked speculatively, "What about the promotional song for the movie?"
"That's right." Meng Yuan saw that he was right at the first guess, which meant that he must be thinking about it, and said carefully, "The result has not been officially announced yet, but from the information I got, this promotion song is likely to be Nine cities will fall into the hands of Youyou."
Yu Nian had mentally prepared before, "I understand. Compared to me, he made his debut earlier than me, and his popularity is much higher than mine. It is reasonable to choose him in the end."
Meng Yuan also knew that this circle was cruel to begin with, but seeing that Yu Nian was not depressed or sad, and he was not angry, he felt a little distressed, and comforted him, "Director Xu is very optimistic about you, and said that this song is the best It’s you. So Niannian, it’s not that you lack talent and strength, it’s just that the opportunity hasn’t come yet.”
"Thank you, Brother Meng," Yu Nian laughed, with clean eyes, "I'm really not unhappy, I'm a little bit disappointed, but it's okay, so don't comfort me."
Meng Yuan observed his expression carefully, and made sure that he was not pretending, so he let go of his worries.
Worried about the accident, Meng Yuan considered that all the previous matters had been dealt with, and all that was left was to make a decision and sign. He simply took Yu Nian in the afternoon and signed the contract with Fei Leng Cui first—the matter was only in black and white. Once the ground is settled, nothing will go wrong.
On the way to send Yu Nian home, there was an evening rush hour and the traffic was slow. Meng Yuan patted the steering wheel and discussed, "I'll figure it out, your exposure rate has to keep up, anyway, you haven't broadcast live for a long time, if you have nothing to do tonight, how about we broadcast live for half an hour ?”
Yu Nian had no objection, "I have no problem."
"Well, it's settled then."
After dinner, Yu Nian kept an eye on the time, and the live broadcast started at nine o'clock on time.
As soon as Yu Nian's face appeared in the camera, the barrage instantly exploded, almost being stuck into a mosaic.
"Good evening everyone, long time no see, how are you all?"
The bullet screen is full of "Hello", occasionally with greetings like "How are you every year". Yu Nian was about to answer when the screen suddenly went dark.
With the previous experience, Yu Nian quickly realized that someone gave him diamonds.
Sure enough, soon, a line of familiar colored characters jumped five times in a row: "The user will give the anchor Yu Nian Diamond X100 as a gift every year."
In just a second, the barrage exploded again.
"—Fuck the fuck, the 990,000 local tyrant fan who confessed his love before appeared again! I'm so excited all of a sudden!"
"—Ah, I'm still guessing today, will I smash another nine hundred and ninety-nine diamonds this time? My little heart!"
"—Ah, oh, oh, I'm so lucky to see it! Take a look! It's really nine hundred and ninety-nine again! I really love it!"
Yu Nian thanked him with a smile, and was about to continue talking when he suddenly heard the doorbell.
He paused and apologized to the camera, "Sorry, I'm going to get something and I'll be back soon, please wait for me for a minute."
Opening the door, just as he thought, the person standing at the door was indeed an acquaintance.
Yu Nian greeted with a smile, "Good evening."
He Shan handed over the gray thermos bucket in his hand.
Yu Nian continued, "Did you come here on purpose today to return the thermos?"
He Shan nodded.
"sorry to bother you."
After the people left, Yu Nian closed the door and was about to put the thermos back into the kitchen when he suddenly realized—something seemed wrong
He remembered very clearly that the thermos bucket he bought was accidentally rubbed when it was being cleaned, leaving a not-so-obvious scratch.
The returned thermos was brand new, with no scratches at all.
Yu Nian stood where he was, and couldn't help laughing again.
Sitting back in front of the camera, seeing that the screen was full of people asking him what he was doing just now, Yu Nian smiled and said, "This is my little secret, I can't tell you guys."
