Chapter 58 Excessive



Time waits for no one. Wen Zhi had no intention of dealing with this person any longer. After pressing the emergency alarm bell, he quickly contacted Assistant Wen.

There are surveillance cameras everywhere, so there's no way to deny it.

The staff member's face turned as pale as paper. Before he could make a careful plan to escape, seven or eight security guards came in quickly: "Mr. Wen, what's wrong?"

Wen Zhi raised his chin slightly: "This person changed the display products with bad intentions."

"Don't slander me. Do you have any evidence?" The staff member struggled to warn the security guards, "I'm just following the procedures."

Wen Zhi didn't have time to argue with him. He picked up the alternative product and left a message: "He has a problem and needs to wait for President Si to deal with it personally. Don't let him leave yet."

The security guards nodded: "Okay."

Walking in the corridor backstage, Assistant Wen quickly reunited with Wen Zhi, who said, "I have already communicated with the host and asked her to delay as much time as possible."

Assistant Wen analyzed calmly: "Is your exhibit working properly now?"

Wen Zhi picked up the alternative watch strap: "Okay, but the video inside has been swapped, so we need to send a new demonstration video as soon as possible."

...

...

Assistant Wen raised his eyes and noticed the person with bad intentions. His eyebrows knitted tightly. "It was him? He is the manager in charge of this product. The original video is not only in his hands, but also in the hands of colleagues in the product development department. They are at the front desk and are on their way here."

At this time, the host on stage has already spent three more minutes reflecting and thinking before the second segment, and cannot delay any further, otherwise accidents may easily occur.

Wen Zhi asked: "How long will it take them to come here?"

Assistant Wen: "Five or six minutes."

Wen Zhi asked again: "Can we ask them to transfer the video directly to the microcomputer? I will log in to WeChat?"

Wen said with embarrassment: "Yes, but the video is quite large and it will take some time to load."

Wen Zhi was thinking anxiously, staring at the product in his hand, and suddenly he had a new idea.

He walked to the entrance: "I'll go first."

After a five-minute monologue, the host suppressed his trembling fingers and announced: "Then, next, we invite our first spokesperson, Mr. Wen Zhi, to bring you the first appearance of **CP!"

After the warm applause, everyone's eyes were focused on the stage, waiting for Wen Zhi to appear.

Chen Yu sat next to Si Mingchen: "Your host is really good at keeping suspense. Finally, we can show the baby."

Si Mingchen slowly looked towards Chen Yu.

Chen Yu immediately explained: "The treasure I'm talking about is the product."

Si Mingchen withdrew his gaze, leaned back in his seat, and tapped the armrest rhythmically with his fingertips.

He was sitting in the center of the first row, with his long legs slightly crossed. At first glance, the tall man was wearing a black suit, with a meticulous expression, and the top button of his shirt was undone. His every move exuded an inviolable majesty.

Today is not just the launch of a new product for him, but a test of the core team he has assembled, which can silence those who oppose him.

Facing the mysterious lights on the stage, Wen Zhi appeared.

The first thing he saw was Si Mingchen.

He nodded slightly to Si Mingchen, raised his eyes seriously, and gave a brief self-introduction.

In his last words, he said: "I am fortunate to be able to experience the use of **CP in advance. To be honest, I am very surprised, and I am also glad for the progress of the times."

Louis looked at his assistant and whispered, “To be honest, I don’t want to work with Sang anymore.”

Assistant: “Why did you change your mind?”

Louis said: "I like the products they develop very much. If I can buy them at a low price, it would be perfect. What Sang Qi can give me is nothing more than the supply channels in Europe. Compared with the company's R&D team, it is not worth mentioning."

The assistant suddenly realized: "Have you made two preparations?"

Lewis said with a confident tone: “Well, let’s see the effect today.”

Under the lights of countless cameras, Wen Zhi picked up the wristband and pressed the button. An interactive electronic screen immediately appeared in mid-air. The photos and short videos inside appeared clearly, and the scene immediately turned into a scene from a science fiction movie.

Everyone exclaimed "Wow" at the same time.

Lewis frowned slightly, his eyes becoming more and more serious: “What’s going on?”

The assistant was a little nervous: "I'm not sure either, let's wait and see."

Louis stared at the interactive virtual screen with an unpleasant expression.

Everyone on the scene was focused on the screen. Wen Zhi said in a gentle voice: "This is what we do when we interact with each other in the office.

The screen and commands can be operated through the wristband, or by pulling out the menu in mid-air. Next, I'm going to show you what it looks like when the video is playing. ”

Wen Zhi entered the password and a 10-second video started playing immediately.

The scene of the short video is a warm afternoon.

When the audience saw the person in the video clearly, they laughed instantly and all looked at Si Mingchen.

Si Mingchen didn't expect that it would be himself in the video, and looked at Wen Zhi with a slightly questioning look.

The video gradually moves forward, and Si Mingchen is patiently peeling shrimps. Next to him is a laptop computer that is playing a stock market situation chart.

He was wearing a warm brown sweater and looked relaxed and comfortable, especially his eyes when he was working seriously. Although he was only wearing home clothes, he had a unique charm.

This video was secretly taken by Wen Zhi from upstairs while Si Mingchen was peeling shrimps.

There are many short videos of Si Mingchen in his mobile phone. Although they are just casual records of life, the shooting techniques are not simple and have a strong sense of camera.

"In fact, the original intention of **CP is to bring technology into our daily home life and bring everyone a different experience. Just like no one would think that our boss would go to the kitchen to cook next."

The guests and audience in the audience laughed out loud.

Wen Zhi looked relaxed, and with a light swipe of his finger, the screen immediately jumped to a new video.

In this video, Si Mingchen is folding clothes.

Many of Si Sheng’s partners in the audience were surprised. Because in their eyes, Mr. Si, who always looks aloof and serious, would never do such a down-to-earth thing.

In the picture, Si Mingchen is wearing a pure cotton white sweatshirt and is sorting clothes into a suitcase.

He counted the vitamin pills and said, "The white ones are for the morning, and the yellow ones are for the evening. Remember that?"

The camera moves slightly up and down.

Simingchen squatted down and looked at the camera: "Are you filming something? Have you found all the winter clothes you need?"

The camera shakes again.

Si Mingchen looked deeply at the camera, walked towards it, and got closer and closer to the audience.

"I will finish my work as soon as possible and go over to accompany you, but you also have to take good care of yourself, memorize the script, and try to finish filming all the scenes as soon as possible."

"Okay." This time it was Wen Zhi's voice. "Si Mingchen, when can you come to see me at the earliest?"

Si Mingchen raised his hand and touched Wen Zhi's head: "I'm afraid it will take a week. I need to go to the South City construction site in a couple of days to check it out in person and inspect the project before the end of the quarter so that the workers can be paid. Otherwise, they will have to wait another three months."

Wen Zhi: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

Chen Yu then whispered to Si Mingchen, "Did you two rehearse this video in advance? When did your acting become so good?"

Si Mingchen: "It wasn't a rehearsal in advance. I didn't know Wen Zhi was filming me."

Chen Yu: "It's quite impressive, and the video is very clear."

After the video ended, Louis's face became more and more ugly, and his assistant didn't even dare to breathe.

At the end of the video, the video stopped on the bookshelf in Simingchen's bedroom, and Wen Zhi said to everyone: "I like to record my life very much, and I often sigh at the convenience of modern technology. But sometimes, when I want to share my videos with friends, the mobile phone lacks a bit of experience compared to **CP. Of course, this technology will become more and more sophisticated in the future. Our common original intention is to make human beings live in a technological and civilized society and make life more and more convenient. My demonstration is over, thank you everyone."

There was thunderous applause from the audience.

Wen Zhi bowed and waved to everyone in thanks.

“Of course, I am very lucky to be the spokesperson for Si Sheng Technology, and I am full of confidence in the future of Si Sheng Technology, because I know that Siming Chen is an excellent and empathetic leader who can lead everyone to open up our own path.”

The thunderous applause did not stop, but became louder and louder.

Assistant Wen heaved a sigh of relief, holding in his hand the demonstration video provided to him by the R&D department. But he felt that this was a blessing in disguise.

The videos selected by Wen Zhi are obviously better.

Si Mingchen has always been known for being aloof and arrogant, and many established technology groups are not interested in the olive branch from Si Sheng Technology.

But Wen Zhi's two videos do a good job of portraying Si Mingchen's gentle and serious image in private, which is a big plus.

He looked at Wen Zhi and found that he was indeed the boss.

Si Mingchen has a really good vision.

Many scientists participated in the press conference

Technology Group was very interested in this technology and before the press conference was over, they all extended olive branches to Si Mingchen and expressed their intention to cooperate. A technology tycoon said earnestly: "Si Sheng not only has advanced technology, but the leader is also a very gentle and considerate person. I feel at ease working with them."

Wen Zhi stood in front of the stage, raised his eyebrows at Si Mingchen, and secretly made an OK gesture.

Si Mingchen smiled and gave a thumbs up.

At this moment, Louis has stood up and is ready to leave. His original plan was to take advantage of the technology scandal at today's new product launch conference to cause Sisheng Technology's stock price to plummet so that he could take the opportunity to acquire it or invest heavily.

But he didn't expect that his men were so stupid that they not only failed to transfer the video he prepared in advance to the demonstration **CP, but also destroyed the **CP program, causing the machine to go black.

Louis was so angry that he kicked his assistant on the spot.

Wen Zhi was standing on the stage and happened to catch a glimpse of this scene. He quickly looked at Si Mingchen and found that Si Mingchen had no time to get away, as he was surrounded by Si Sheng's new partners.

He had no choice but to hurry up and catch up.

Louis had already arrived at the entrance of the venue and was about to get in the car. His assistant stayed away from him, fearing that he would be angered again. Wen Zhi stood in the dark and immediately took a picture of Louis' face and license plate number and sent it to Si Mingchen.

Three hours later, the press conference ended successfully and received extensive publicity from dozens of media outlets.

With its first product, Si Mingchen obtained six cooperation projects and completed a C round of financing of 6.68 billion yuan.

When saying goodbye to the partner, the partner sincerely envied: "Mr. Si's lover is beautiful and steady. You are really lucky."

Simingchen nodded: "Yes, he really helped me a lot and is also my motivation."

The partner waved: "See you next time, I look forward to your new products."

Simingchen nodded: "Definitely."

After watching everyone leave, Assistant Wen dared to step forward and tell Si Mingchen about the episode that Wen Zhi was going to demonstrate on stage today.

Si Mingchen's eyes turned cold on the spot. After all the guests left, he and Wen Zhi interrogated the product manager.

The product manager kept his mouth shut and refused to say who sent him. He insisted that someone else had framed him and he had no idea that the product had been swapped.

Si Mingchen naturally wouldn't believe his lies, so he asked the monitoring team to turn on the surveillance footage and put it in front of this person. Only then did the other person completely collapse.

Si Mingchen asked in a low voice: "You have two choices now. First, say nothing, I will submit the evidence to the court and report it to the police for theft. Second, tell me who ordered you to do so, and I can let you off."

The product manager hesitated: "…I."

Wen Zhi reminded Si Mingchen at this time: "Take a close look at the photos I sent you on WeChat. The foreigner's expression was not right, especially when I successfully demonstrated the product."

Si Mingchen lowered his head and opened WeChat: "Let me take a look."

After seeing the man's face clearly, Si Mingchen seemed to have some impression in his mind and quickly arranged for an assistant to follow up.

Wen Zhi showed the product manager a photo of Louis: "Did he send you to do this?"

The product manager saw that Louis couldn't escape and directly gave him up: "He instructed me to do it."

Si Mingchen immediately looked at Wen Zhi: "Why did he instruct you to do this?"

The product manager said: "I don't know the details. The person who contacted me was always a middleman. If I hadn't been smart and secretly followed the middleman out after negotiating the money, I might never have met Louis, let alone know that he was the one who was doing the deal with me."

Now, Si Mingchen has already had his own thoughts on this matter. Considering that Wen Zhi is tired after a day and needs to rest, he handed over the follow-up matters to Assistant Wen and took Wen Zhi home to rest.

In the car, Wen Zhizheng told the story vividly, and Si Mingchen also learned the full details and the whole process of the incident.

"At that critical moment, my intuition told me that there was something wrong with him!"

“I fought him again to verify the product despite the danger and his obstruction, and guess what happened!”

Si Mingchen cooperated very well and asked curiously, "What happened?"

Wen Zhi's expression was solemn: "It turned out to be a black screen."

Si Mingchen raised his hand and pinched Wen Zhi's ear, praising her sincerely: "Thank you, Zhizhi. Today's press conference is very important to me. Thanks to your help, we didn't make any mistakes."

Wen Zhi cleared his throat and said, "It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning."

Si Mingchen held him in his arms and rested with his eyes closed.

After returning home, Wen Zhi jumped up and down after taking a bath. He was not as tired as Si Mingchen had imagined. Before going to bed, Wen Zhi even stuck to Si Mingchen and asked for a reward.

Si Mingchen held him in his arms and asked in a deep voice: "What reward do you want?

? ”

Wen Zhi drew circles on his chest with her fingers: "Tell me, what do you want to give me?"

Si Ming thought for a moment, then arranged the quilt and covered them both with it: "Can I take you to experience something you've never experienced before?"

Wen Zhi was confused: "What experience? Are we going on a trip?"

Si Mingchen secretly curled his lips and pressed Wen Zhi under him.

That night, the flower garden, cloakroom, and study were all filled with the figures of the two travelers.

A week passed in a flash, and the sales of Si Sheng Technology's first product skyrocketed. In just one week, the sales accounted for 30% of the electronics market, making it a well-deserved star product. Many elite working people bought one, and soon the **VP new technology advertisement swept the entire advertising industry, and Wen Zhi's figure was everywhere.

On the Internet, almost all the reviews about Si Sheng Technology's new products are positive, and the only negative reviews are also due to the price.

As a spokesperson, Wen Zhi is not idle either. He broadcasts live twice a week, almost always using **CP to play TV series and movies he has starred in.

The fans were very tolerant and endured the embarrassment of picking their toes and just kept watching.

Wen Zhi discovered that the activity of his Weibo fans was getting higher day by day. Sometimes his daily posts would have 200,000 reposts, which was only half of the number of reposts of the most popular top-tier stars.

With motivation, Wen Zhi worked harder on his career, striving to bring home a Best Actor trophy before he turns 30.

On this day, when Si Mingchen was chatting with Wen Zhi, he mentioned that the second product had been developed and could be mass-produced after the 1058th test.

This is a companion robot, and Wen Zhi tried it out in advance.

"Zhizhi, do you have time to shoot the commercial? It's tentatively scheduled for next Tuesday."

Wen Zhi shook his head slowly: "No, after my audition for the costume drama, the director gave me the role of the second male lead, and I need to take the final makeup photo."

Si Mingchen smiled and said, "Our Zhizhi has become a big star now."

Wen Zhi raised his eyebrows: "Of course."

Speaking of the new advertisement, Wen Zhi seriously suggested: "Why don't you find a few more spokespersons? Spokespeople with different styles shoot different styles of products, the effect should be very good."

Siming Chen nodded: "Our products are relatively young, and I prefer younger spokespersons. Do you have any recommendations?"

Wen Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Is Jiang Xingnan okay? He's handsome, famous, and his asking price is low."

Si Mingchen: "It can be considered."

After having a preliminary idea, Wen Zhi contacted Jiang Xingnan and told him about it.

Jiang Xingnan has not had any announcements since the filming was completed. He has been basically recharging himself and preparing new scripts.

After hearing Wen Zhi invite him to endorse Si Sheng Technology's second product, he was happy but a little worried: "Thank you for your invitation, but you also know my current situation. Si Sheng Technology's first product was very successful. Inviting me to endorse it is a waste of opportunity. It might even bring you more negative news."

Wen Zhi didn't care about Jiang Xingnan's concerns and persuaded him, "Anyone with a brain knows who the bad guy is in the matter between you and Sang Qi. You don't need to worry too much about your current reputation. You need to change your image little by little."

Jiang Xingnan was still worried: "Thank you, Wen Zhi, but I really don't quite fit in——"

Wen Zhi interrupted: "Go and try it out. If it's suitable, take it. If it's not suitable, just take it as a way to relax. Si Sheng's marketing and advertising departments are very powerful and professional. Let them tell you whether you are suitable or not."

Jiang Xingnan politely agreed due to Wen Zhi's kindness: "Thank you, I'll try."

Wen Zhi hung up the phone with satisfaction, feeling that his judgment was correct.

Once "Hope" is released, Jiang Xingnan's reputation will definitely change. It will only take a few minutes for Jiang Xingnan to become popular again. It will be expensive to invite Jiang Xingnan to be the spokesperson at that time, and secondly, the other party may not have the time. So it’s most appropriate to sign the contract now.

Wen Zhi sighed, thinking that he was such a clever little fellow.

As the days passed, the city of Jiangjing gradually became hotter in May. Wen Zhi was very satisfied when he saw his increasing number of Weibo followers.

In the past two days, he has been traveling back and forth between the crew and home, which is very tiring. But Si Mingchen was too busy with his work to spare time, and he was homesick, so he could only temporarily endure the hardship and return home every day.

Tomorrow, which is Saturday, he needs to record a movie promotional video with Song Chengyu, Jiang Xingnan and others. The crew gave him two days off, so he can take the opportunity to have a good rest.

Wen Zhi was sitting in the nanny car, and her thoughts couldn't help but think of the person who deliberately did something bad at the press conference. It has been more than ten days, and I still don’t know if Si Mingchen has any clues.

He casually flipped through the calendar and found that May 14th was Rose Day, and it was also the seventh year since Si Mingchen officially took over Si Sheng Group.

So, Wen Zhi

Thinking about buying Si Mingchen a gift to celebrate.

Not long ago, he saw Ming Yantang bought a yacht, which looked cool and handsome, and was a 2023 limited edition model.

He thought, why not buy one for Si Mingchen to play with.

According to Ming Yantang, the exterior of the yacht can be engraved with words. He plans to engrave "Ming Chen loves Zhizhi" on it, so that when the two of them go out to sea together in the future, it will definitely be sweet and cool.

Wen Zhi is a man of action. On the way to meet Song Chengyu and others the next day, he had already started picking out the style of yacht.

But when he came across a yacht he liked, he discovered an embarrassing problem.

His pocket was clean, without a penny.

He had already given all his savings to Wen Qishan, so if he wanted to pay for the yacht, he could only use Si Mingchen's card.

Although Si Mingchen's card was given to him for him to spend, he bought this yacht just to give Si Mingchen a surprise.

In an instant, 20 million was gone.

Si Mingchen must know what he bought.

Wen Zhi frowned and quickly looked through his recent notices to see if there was any party A that had not paid him.

After searching around, it turns out that only the advertisement for Si Sheng Technology did not pay him.

"Sister Qingwan, has Si Sheng's advertising fee arrived?"

Qing Wan was stunned: "Aren't you the spokesperson for Si Sheng for free?"

Wen Zhi said "Oh" in disappointment, and asked tentatively: "Did I say it was free... Did they really not pay me?"

Qingwan nodded: "Yeah."

Wen Zhi sighed quietly and opened his WeChat wallet.

Sadly, there are no surprises in it.

The total balance is only 500 yuan.

Feeling sad and depressed, Wen Zhi came to the studio to shoot a movie MV with Song Chengyu and Jiang Xingnan.

During the break in filming, Jiang Xingnan noticed that Wen Zhi was unhappy, so he went over and handed him a cup of coffee: "Wen Zhi, thank you. Si Sheng Technology called me not long ago and invited me to be the brand ambassador."

Brand ambassador, this advertising title is slightly inferior to spokesperson, but it is also good and is a long-term cooperation.

Wen Zhi held the coffee and said, "Congratulations."

Jiang Xingnan asked with concern: "Are you feeling unwell?"

Wen Zhi: "No." He hid his thoughts. He couldn't tell the other party that he was planning to borrow money from his good friends to buy a gift for Si Mingchen.

At this time, Song Chengyu came over with some snacks: "Two children, eat something to fill your stomach first, we still have a long time to shoot."

Wen Zhi was still unhappy and said thank you.

While eating, he found that Jiang Xingnan was in a good mood, so he hesitated for a long time and asked, "Xingnan, can you tell me about your endorsement fee for Sisheng Technology?"

Afraid that Jiang Xingnan might misunderstand, he scratched his head awkwardly: "I heard that they are very stingy, so I asked around."

Jiang Xingnan smiled and said, "I don't know the exact amount yet. I'll go and finalize the contract tonight and tell you."

Wen Zhi nodded: "Okay."

Jiang Xingnan added: "My agent said it seems to be quite high."

Wen Zhi nodded silently and suddenly had a heart attack.

No matter how low it is, it is better than having no money at all.

Wen Zhi's heavy and complicated mood continued until he returned home. As soon as he entered the fourth floor, he saw Si Mingchen working in the study.

A strong sense of grievance came over me instantly.

He spent money to celebrate Si Mingchen's seventh anniversary at work, and he even had to borrow money with a shameless face.

What’s outrageous is that he wasn’t even paid a penny for the endorsement.

There is no such thing in the world!

So he knocked on the door twice and stood there motionless.

"Si Mingchen, the first product sold so well, did you make a lot of money?"

Facing Wen Zhi's sudden inquiry, Si Mingchen thought for a moment and said, "We have indeed sold a lot, but the research and development of the early products cost a lot of money, so overall, we haven't made any money yet."

Seeing Wen Zhi hesitating, he asked, "What's wrong, Zhizhi?"

Wen Zhi scratched his hands nervously: "Although you haven't made any money yet, can you give me a portion of the endorsement fee first?"

Si Mingchen was stunned and laughed: "Is it your endorsement fee?"

He held his face in his hands and said jokingly, "I seem to have said that Zhizhi would endorse me for free."

Wen Zhi frowned, suppressing his aggrieved expression: "I thought you were joking."

Simingchen smiled: "No kidding."

Wen Zhi said nothing more and closed the study door silently.

The smile on Si Mingchen's face gradually disappeared and turned into confusion.

What happened to Wen Zhi?

Are you unhappy today?

At this moment, Wen Zhi had returned to the bedroom with a sniffle, and was borrowing money from Ming Yantang with great difficulty.

Just then, Jiang Xingnan sent him a WeChat message: "

They gave me 10 million yuan as a deposit, and the remaining 5 million yuan will be given to me after the filming of the commercial. ”

Wen Zhi looked at the string of numbers and felt more and more uncomfortable.

He felt like he was having a heart attack.

Just then, the WeChat ringtone rang, and Ming Yantang called him: "Why are you borrowing money suddenly? Is your Si Mingchen bankrupt?"

Wen Zhi was sobbing because he had no place to vent his grievances.

Ming Yantang was anxious: "Fuck, are they really bankrupt?"

Wen Zhi shook his head desperately: "He is not bankrupt, he is fine."

Ming Yantang became even more anxious: "Then why are you crying?"

Wen Zhi wiped her nose and complained tearfully, "Some time ago, I was busy running around for Si Sheng Technology's new products. I was very competent as a spokesperson. Even at the press conference, it was my wit that saved the day."

Ming Yantang: "And then?"

Wen Zhi was indignant, and the humiliating night resurfaced in his mind: "And then? Then the brand ambassador got 15 million yuan as endorsement fee, but I, as the spokesperson, got nothing. The most outrageous thing is that I worked hard for a month, and Si Mingchen took advantage of my labor for free, and he also took advantage of my body for free! On the day of the press conference, he went from the flower garden to the study room when he came home. How could he be so outrageous!"

Standing outside the bedroom, Si Mingchen, who was on the phone, was stunned.
