After Zhao Jinyu arrived at Shengtang, he first greeted the front desk, and then Fang Zhishun took him directly to the office floor where Chen Lixuan was located. 【Read the latest chapter】
The secretary sitting outside Chen Lixuan's office saw Zhao Jinyu coming up accompanied by Fang Zhishun, and greeted with a smile, "Hello, Master Jin, long time no see!"
Zhao Jinyu has been to Shengtang Company several times. As Chen Lixuan's secretary, he naturally knows Zhao Jinyu's current identity. Since he has met him many times, Secretary Jiang's tone is very familiar when he speaks.
"Hello, Secretary Jiang!" Zhao Jinyu replied with a smile.
"Master Jin, wait a moment, I'll notify the third master."
Zhao Jinyu, who was standing aside, saw that Chen Lixuan's office door was closed. He knew something was going on, so he stopped Secretary Jiang who had already picked up the phone and was about to dial the intercom, "No need for Secretary Jiang, my third uncle is busy, it's nothing." If it's important, I'll just wait outside."
Chen Lixuan had specifically told Jiang Yanlin earlier, telling her not to disturb him if there was nothing important. Now that Zhao Jinyu said so, he didn't insist too much. Jiang Yanlin also noticed that it was getting late. No matter how busy the people inside were, they always needed to eat. Even if they had to wait, Zhao Jinyu would not wait too long.
She was afraid that Zhao Jinyu would be anxious aside, and opened the computer next to her to let him go online and pass the time.
Although electronic media and the Internet are now prevalent, Zhao Jinyu does not like and is not used to electronic books. He still likes to read paper books. It is not necessary and he does not spend much time online. He didn't use the computer he kept in the dormitory much. It was mostly used by Zou Nan to play games.
Zhao Jinyu waited outside for about half an hour, and the door to Chen Lixuan's office finally opened.
Chen Lixuan and several others walked out while talking. When they left the office, they saw Zhao Jinyu sitting next to Jiang Yanlin, "Jinyu, when did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me when you arrived? You've been waiting for a long time, right?"
"No, I just arrived a while ago," Zhao Jinyu said before saying hello to the other people who came out together.
Chen Lixuan signaled Jiang Yanlin who was waiting aside to get off work, and then said to Zhao Jinyu, "I heard Fatty Zhang said that he has a new chef over there. It just so happens that Jin Yu will come with him to try it."
Zhao Jinyu looked at the people next to him and shook his head, "Third uncle, you should be busy here, so I won't bother you. I'll go back when I have the chance!"
Zhao Jinyu came over just now and saw that the door of Chen Lixuan's office was closed. He felt that it was a bit rash for him to come directly like this today.
I really have been here for a long time, and people have become casual. There is no way here to hand in a message before visiting the door like before. At that time, I just thought that the two companies were close to each other, and I didn’t even make a call in advance. It was really a bit confusing. Sorry, please be careful in the future!
"What are you interrupting? No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat. After eating, I will ask Zhishun to take you back first," Chen Lixuan said, holding his shoulders.
After all, Zhao Jinyu is not really only a teenager, and he is still very good at observing faces. When Chen Lixuan asked him to go to dinner just now, Liang Tao who was beside him was obviously a little strange, so he guessed that there must be something else at their dinner tonight. If people participate and have some purpose, you should not follow them and get involved.
Thinking of this, he shook his head resolutely, "I just came out of Ouyang Zhi's place. I saw that I was very close to you, so I wanted to come over and say hello. I didn't expect that you were busy here."
"When you went over there today, did Ouyang Zhi talk to you? What do you think?" Although he knew that Ouyang Zhi was very famous in this industry and was considered familiar with him, Chen Lixuan still asked with concern.
"It should be pretty good. It depends on how it goes in the future. I'm a layman on these things, so I can't say whether it's good or bad for the time being."
"It's true, the effect won't be visible immediately," Chen Lixuan said, then changed the topic back, "I really don't want to go, it's already dinner time."
"Next time, you are busy today and will have many opportunities in the future."
Lu Guanze also nodded, "Lixuan, those people tonight always like to play, especially after drinking some wine. There is no lower limit when it comes to playing. Why don't we send Jin Yu back first?"
Liang Tao, who was walking aside, also joined in and said, "It might be very late tonight, why don't we send Young Master Jin back first?"
Chen Lixuan also thought about the people who were going to have dinner together tonight, and began to feel that it was indeed inappropriate to take Jin Yu there. No matter how mature and steady Jin Yu looks, he is not yet an adult. It is better not to let him know about the lustful desires of adults so early.
"That's fine, Jinyu. I'll let Zhishun take you back later. There is a banquet in Tang Dynasty tomorrow night. There are many people attending and it is very lively. Come and have a look then. Don't stay bored at home every day."
Thinking that Jin Yu had always had a good relationship with the two boys from Nandu, he added, "If you are afraid of being bored there, don't you have two classmates who play well together? You can ask them to come with you."
"In this case, let me ask them if they mean it."
Several people walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the parking lot on the ground floor. Because the directions were different, everyone waved and prepared to get in the car.
Zhao Jinyu took out a small brocade box from his bag and handed it to Chen Lixuan's hand, "Third uncle, this is for you. The Buddhist beads are blessed to keep you safe."
After saying that, he turned around and quickly walked a few steps to get into the car. He waved to Chen Lixuan and ordered Fang Zhishun to drive.
The five people on Chen Lixuan's side were divided into two cars. Chen Lixuan and Lu Guanze got into the same car, with Liang Tao driving.
Lu Guanze looked at the small box in Chen Lixuan's hand and said curiously, "This box looks very special. Open it quickly and take a look. What good things did Jin Yu give you?"
Chen Lixuan carefully looked at the switch on the side of the brocade box and said, "Jin Yu said it was a Buddhist bead that had been illuminated."
Then he touched the switch button and tried it up and down and left and right for a while before he heard a "click". With this sound, the box was opened easily.
As soon as the box was opened, several people smelled a very special light woody fragrance. The palm-sized brocade box was covered with golden brocade, and on top of the brocade was placed a string of purple-black Buddhist beads.
The wooden beads are polished to be round and full, with a soft luster. The purple-black beads give people a sense of simplicity, elegance and weight. Not to mention other things, the workmanship alone is very rare.
Lu Guanze, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but exclaimed, "What a good thing! Let me take a look," and then motioned to Chen Lixuan to hand him the beads in his hand.
After the beads were in Lu Guanze's hands, he deliberately raised them in front of his eyes and looked at the light outside the window. Each beads was round and smooth, and the wood grain on them was clearly visible. He touched each bead carefully and said, "It's from red sandalwood." I’ve seen quite a few bracelets, but this is the first time I’ve seen one with such good workmanship and quality.”
After saying that, he looked at it carefully for a few more times before handing the prayer beads to Chen Lixuan, "It's not the right time of the year, and your birthday isn't even here. Why would Jin Yu think of giving you a gift?"
"It's not the right time to give me a gift?" Chen Lixuan looked at the Buddhist beads in his hand. Even if he didn't smile, there was an aura of joy in his whole body. "Isn't it a very nice gift from Jin Yu to be my uncle?" Is it a normal thing? You can also call those from your family?"
"Come on, if those little devils can bother me less, I can't wait to burn incense for them and let them give me gifts, so forget it!"
"Jin Yu probably saw the bad things I encountered some time ago, so she gave me a string of Buddhist beads."
Chen Lixuan's tone of voice was normal, but it still made people feel that he was full of contentment, which made Lu Guanze want to cover him with a cloth bag.
When Zhao Jinyu was in the bank yesterday, when she saw this string of Buddhist beads, she really thought of the things that Chen Lixuan happened to see some time ago. Even though he knew that those things were man-made, he still felt that his luck was a little worse during that time.
This string of Buddhist beads was blessed by an eminent monk back then. Of course, modern people are not as particular about these as they used to be, nor do they value them as much as they used to. In addition to these, the sandalwood beads themselves also have certain medicinal value. Carrying them with you is good for you. The body has certain regulating and maintenance functions.
Zhao Jinyu thought of what Chen Lixuan had said earlier about the banquet tomorrow night. Hu Feng and the others were not star-struck, but it would be nice to go and watch the excitement. Thinking of this, when I was getting ready to rest at night, I called them and asked them what they meant.
Hu Feng has a calm personality and has no interest in chasing stars, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like the excitement. Not to mention other things, it's good to go see beautiful women. Even if many of them are acquired, they can be eye-catching, so after hearing Zhao Jinyu's inquiry, he was very happy. So he agreed.
The dormitories that Hu Feng and Fang Yubo live in are two buildings next to each other, and it only takes a few minutes to get to each other's dormitories. When Hu Feng came to Fang Yubo's dormitory, he had just come back from taking a shower and was wiping his wet hair. Seeing Hu Feng coming at this time, he was obviously a little surprised, "Fengzi, what's the matter?" He dragged a chair next to Hu Feng and motioned for him to sit down.
Hu Feng shook his head and said directly to him, "Jin Yu called just now and said that there was a banquet at Tang Dynasty Entertainment tonight and asked if we are interested in going there? I have already agreed, what about you?"
Fang Yubo nodded and said with a smile, "Jin Yu is so partial that he didn't even call me personally to invite me."
"So you're not going to go?"
"Didn't I nod just now?" He glanced at Hu Feng, "Besides, why don't you go? Jin Yu is not someone else? Even if you don't let me go, I will still follow you."
Hu Feng had nothing else to do when he came over. After saying this, he was about to leave. Before leaving, he said, "You also said that Jin Yu is partial. No one answered Jin Yu's call just now. You even asked me to come over and check on you." Look, why else would I take this trip?”
Fang Yubo said happily from behind, "I knew our Jin Yu was the best to me!"
"..." You might as well say that you have the thickest skin!
In the afternoon of the next day, Fang Yubo and Hu Feng arrived at Jinxiyuan early.
Both Hu Feng and Hu Feng wore similar-style casual suits with shirts and casual straight-leg pants. They also replaced their usual sneakers or sports shoes with business-casual leather shoes.
Zhao Jinyu couldn't help but nod when she saw how the two of them were dressed. The banquet held by Tang Dynasty Entertainment wouldn't be too serious this time. They were just here to watch the fun, but they dressed up too casually and would still attract people's attention. However, There is no need to look too formal like those male celebrities and social figures, it is really good to be like them.
It’s better to do less of those things like wearing fancy clothes or wearing sportswear or jeans to attend banquets in order to show off your personality. It’s hard to say whether others will think you have a personality if you do that, but there will definitely be many people who think this person is stupid.
Zhao Jinyu herself was not dressed as formally today as at the banquet hosted by Chen Lixuan that the father and son attended together at the beginning of the year. Although today is also a light gray suit, it is more casual and does not include a tie or bow tie, so that it does not look too formal.
Tang Dynasty Entertainment cannot be said to be the leader in the world, but it can still be ranked among the top three. Especially their contracted artists in film and television. Several of them can be regarded as kings and queens, and they are also among the best in the industry. . At a charity auction, many rich people gathered, and big-name celebrities came in droves. It can be said that it gave Tang Dynasty Entertainment enough face.
The big and small stars in the entertainment industry who participated were not only artists from their own companies, but also artists from other companies, and many were invited to participate. Participating in such a charity banquet can not only build a good relationship with Tang Dynasty Entertainment, but also add points to your personal image, so why not do it.
There were very few media who were allowed to enter the banquet. In order to obtain first-hand information, the long red carpet in front of the hotel was naturally occupied by reporters from all walks of life early on, just to take pictures of these rich celebrities. Photos of others.
Of course, it would be even better if we could take pictures of female celebrities being exposed, celebrities who don't like each other squinting at each other, or old and new lovers gathering on the red carpet, etc.
These gossips are vulgar and substandard, but they attract many people who are interested and attract people's attention. In order to cater to the public, many media naturally develop in an increasingly kitsch direction, making people more and more speechless.
Zhao Jinyu and the others were led directly into the venue by Jiang Haibin's assistant Wang Bo, who went to the underground parking lot in person.
The entire banquet hall was brightly lit, dressed in fragrant clothes, and people were drinking wine. Rich stars, dignitaries and dignitaries gathered there.
They arrived not too early or too late, and their clothes were relatively ordinary. Because of Zhao Jinyu's appearance and temperament, people who saw them took a few glances, but most people just thought that the newcomers that Tang Dynasty was about to introduce did not Too much attention.
Zhao Jinyu followed Wang Bo to one side of the banquet hall. Several tall green plants separated it from the entire hall, forming a faint private area suitable for rest and conversation. Chen Lixuan was sitting here chatting with a group of people.
As soon as Chen Lixuan saw Zhao Jinyu coming, he waved and shouted, "Jinyu is here, come and sit down."
Then he introduced his identity to several people next to him whom Zhao Jinyu had never met before, and pointed at the people sitting one by one to explain their respective identities to Zhao Jinyu.
When Chen Lixuan introduced them, he directly skipped the two women with exquisite makeup and didn't say anything else. Zhao Jinyu himself also ignored them and didn't specifically ask about the identities of these two people.
After introducing each other's identities, Chen Lixuan looked specifically at Hu Feng and the two sitting next to Jin Yu, and said with a smile, "Hu Feng and Fang Yubo, right? My brother-in-law met your brother Hu Di in Nandu a few days ago, everyone. After we started chatting, we realized that we all know each other. Thank you for taking care of our Jinyu in the past."
"Mr. Chen is so polite. Jin Yu and we have been old classmates for many years. We all play together, so there is really no need to take care of us."
Chen Lixuan knew most of Zhao Jinyu's past in Nandu, and naturally he also knew about his classmates.
Because Jin Yu also knew a lot about the situation of the Hu family and knew that Hu Feng's father was a good person at work. For the benefit of both parties, Lu Guantao instigated people to give Hu's father a certain degree of respect during this change of office. support.
Being able to be introduced by Chen Lixuan in person, their respective identities and backgrounds are naturally not bad. Even sitting there, the kind of aura that is invisible to those who have been in power for a long time still makes Hu Feng and Hu Feng a little cautious.
To be honest, their two families are pretty good in Nandu, but for a family like them, they are really not good enough in Hesi/Ninth Cities.
As one of them, Chen Lixuan, could speak to them so politely. Hu Feng was really happy for his old classmate. What makes the third young master of the Chen family be so polite to the two of them is definitely not because of their financial background, but simply because they are Jin Yu's classmates.
In the past, I knew from Jin Yu's mouth that the Chen family treated Jin Yu well, but after all, I had not seen it with my own eyes. This time, Hu Feng was truly relieved. Chen Sanshao's happiness when he saw Jin Yu just now and the affectionate manner when he spoke clearly showed that the Chen family valued Jin Yu.
Zhao Jinyu felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Hu Feng and the others sitting here. After chatting with Chen Lixuan for a while, she was ready to take them away.
"Uncle Third, I'll take them outside to have a look."
Chen Lixuan nodded, "That's okay. Let Liang Tao take you to have something to eat. You can come back later. I heard there are some good things today. Then you can see if you are interested."
Four/Nine Cities have heard of Zhao Jinyu a lot, but not many people really know him. When they came in, most people couldn't help but look at Zhao Jinyu and his party just because of his good looks.
When he appeared in the hall again, he found that Liang Tao was accompanying him, which made people think.
As Chen Lixuan's assistant, most of them knew that Liang Tao was actually accompanying them now, and Liang Tao's attitude toward them was implicitly respectful. Obviously, he couldn't be just a newcomer to Tang Dynasty Entertainment. At the banquet, gossips had already begun to ask others about the identities of these boys.
Tonight's banquet was a buffet. On the way to the dining table, Zhao Jinyu met two guests who had greeted them at the banquet at the beginning of the year. They stopped and said hello before leaving.
Zhao Jinyu came to the long table where the food was placed. Seeing that Liang Tao was still following her, she persuaded him, "Assistant Liang, I have nothing to do here, so you don't need to stay here."
"The boss asked me to accompany you specifically," Liang Tao shook his head and while speaking, he went to the side to help get a plate and handed it to him.
"No, go ahead and do your work. I'll be fine here."
Liang Tao thought about it. This was a banquet held by Tang Dynasty Entertainment. Who would bully the boss's nephew without a look?
After watching Liang Tao leave, Fang Yubo came closer and said, "Oh, I'm gone now. With him here, I don't even feel comfortable talking."
Hu Feng looked at Fang Yubo, who had obviously relaxed for a moment or two, and replied with a smile, "Assistant Liang is fine, what's wrong with you?"
"Oh, how can you feel comfortable talking when there is a stranger standing by?"
Zhao Jinyu took the plate and a glass of water, turned around and left the dining table, ready to find a place to sit down. He was holding something in his hand and talking to Hu Feng and others beside him as he walked. When he felt that there was someone in front of him, he stepped aside and gave way.
While turning sideways, he subconsciously raised his head. It was this glance that made Zhao Jinyu stunned. The thing in his hand fell to the ground with a "pop", "Junior sister?"
