Chapter 488 The Rain Keeps Falling (10K)
After returning to the hotel, taking a shower, and lying down on the bed, Zeng Wenjie felt that his mentality was as stable as an old dog again.
Whether or not he can win this award depends on whether Zhuang Aimin is willing to work hard.
I lay there for a while but couldn't fall asleep, so I got up and used the hotel computer to process some files, then opened "Hollow Knight" and played for a while.
This is the same world view as the "Hollow Knight" he completed in his previous life, but the level structure is completely different. Only 80% of the operations are similar, so he got started very quickly.
But after being killed by several traps in a row, he was a little defeated and quietly closed the game.
Looking at the praise rate, it has increased a bit. It will not be a problem to reach 95%, and even 97% is possible.
In order to make WG bigger and stronger, Penguin continues to provide support. Users who purchase "Hollow Knight" can receive precious gift packs from major online games under its umbrella.
The recharge ratio between QB and RMB is one to one, and Penguin also attaches great importance to this virtual currency system. The WG platform uses QB as currency, which is simply a clever move. It is deeply tied to Penguin, allowing them to consciously and actively provide blood transfusions to WG.
Then, Zeng Wenjie opened the file that Teacher Sa sent to him and read it carefully.
This interview was about the conflict between online games and minors, which was sensitive and sharp. Zeng Wenjie had to think carefully before considering the answer.
Fortunately, the experience he accumulated in his previous life was enough for him to resolve these problems. The strategies for regulating online games issued by the country in the following years were also relatively mature and could be used to answer questions in advance. Most of them could reassure those bigwigs who hated online games but were counting on WG to go overseas and earn foreign exchange.
"Have you passed the level?" Zeng Wenjie sent a message to Mu Qingyang.
"Not yet! (crying)" Mu Qingyang, who was in invisible state, quickly replied.
"I'll beat you to death for daring to hide." Zeng Wenjie immediately became fierce.
"Because someone keeps sending me messages, I became invisible." Mu Qingyang replied.
"Who is it?"
"The boys at school."
"It seems that my absence from school recently has emboldened them."
"Maybe it's because vacation and graduation are coming up soon."
Zeng Wenjie was stunned. Oh, yeah, summer vacation is coming, and the seniors are about to graduate. Before leaving, why not have one last crazy time? What if it works out?
"This game is quite long and difficult. It will take at least twenty-four or twenty-five hours to complete it. So, don't be impatient and play it slowly," Zeng Wenjie replied.
"Have you passed the level?" Mu Qingyang asked.
"Of course I cleared the game!" Zeng Wenjie told her shamelessly. In fact, he just closed the game because he was too frustrated.
After chatting with Mu Qingyang for a while, she started to play "Hollow Knight". It was obvious that the game was more attractive than her boyfriend.
Zeng Wenjie just hoped that she would not go to teach her grandfather to play during the summer vacation, otherwise, what if the old man got angry and had a heart attack?
Zeng Wenjie lay back on the bed, then called Ye Yixiuan to ask about the situation of "Village Super".
Ye Yixiuan had finished her work and returned home. Just as she was about to take a rest, she received a call from Zeng Wenjie.
"Hey, it's a rare call. What's up?" Ye Yixuan asked, "Is there something you need my help with?"
"Yes, I came here for an interview today for one of the top ten in the country. There was a judge named Lin, who was probably related to Lin Dong from The9 Capital, and he deliberately targeted me. I got angry with him on the spot. If I don't get this award this year, Sister Xuan, you won't call me a waste, right?" Zeng Wenjie said miserably.
Ye Yixuan was stunned after hearing this, then smiled and said, "Isn't that a reward for you?"
These words left Zeng Wenjie speechless.
"Don't worry, the leader will handle this matter. Although Lin Dong has a strong background, he can't cover everything with one hand. I will call my father tomorrow morning and tell him about this matter." Ye Yixiuan said.
"It's not nice to disturb your uncle with such a small matter, right?" Zeng Wenjie asked.
Ye Yixuan said, "This is not a small matter. This is the whole Chongshan matter. After all, you are the star figure we all nominated."
Zeng Wenjie said, "Then I'll have to trouble Sister Xuan."
Zeng Wenjie was in a hurry to start the snack business. He raised 86 million in Series A funding, and now the market value has exceeded 100 million. Ye Qiansheng holds those shares, and if he sells them, he can earn eight figures.
Just for the shares that Ye Qiansheng got, Ye Ling would definitely have to do something for Zeng Wenjie.
Zeng Wenjie said to Ye Yixuan, "It's the new media age now, and Guzhou County's specialties are very popular. Sister Xuan, you should browse the internet more and find a few popular bloggers to write a few blogs about. The effect will be even better."
Ye Yixuan said thoughtfully, "Indeed, many video websites have clips of our 'Village Super', and the click-through rate is not low. I should make more use of online bloggers to promote Guzhou County..."
If it were the era of Weibo and Tik Tok, then promotion would be much easier, and a video could make a city instantly popular.
But now, everyone is still using a 2G network bar phone, so there is still a big gap in the comparison of online publicity power.
I talked to Ye Yixiuan for more than 30 minutes, and most of the topics we talked about were work. It was only in the last few minutes that we talked about life.
Ye Yixiuan’s current situation can be summed up in one word - busy.
"Sister Xuan, you should also take care of your health. Don't let the time pass when you can't drink any more. That would be boring." Zeng Wenjie finally said with a joking expression of concern.
After Ye Yixiuan hung up the phone, a smile appeared on her face.
She has been very busy lately.
I have no time to listen to the voices of concern.
Today I happened to finish some things and went back home to rest, and I happened to receive a call from Zeng Wenjie.
Sometimes Ye Yixiuan felt that this boy's words were quite artistic, and his concern was just right, which made her feel good.
"I must make full use of the good start of 'Village Super' and lay a solid foundation in the next few years so that I can return to Fengzhou and the province faster in the future." Ye Yixiuan thought to herself.
Then, she had a very strange dream. She dreamed that her husband bought a gift and asked her to help give it to Zeng Wenjie. She was so amused that she felt the world was absurd.
After waking up, Ye Yixiuan immediately called Ye Ling.
"What's the matter?" Ye Ling asked.
"Zeng Wenjie encountered some trouble in Yanjing. The people from Jiucheng Capital targeted him, which seemed to have affected his chances of winning the top ten national awards." Ye Yixiuan said directly.
This father and daughter are really strange. They haven't been in touch for a long time, and when they call each other, the first thing they say is to ask what's the matter.
Ye Ling was stunned after hearing this and said, "I see. I will ask my old friend in Yanjing about this matter. Ai Min should also ask about it."
Ye Yixuan asked, "Should we warn The9 Capital not to go too far?"
Ye Ling said, "No need. There's no point in getting mad at a little brat. If they don't know what's good for them, that guy will take care of them."
"Who is that?" Ye Yixiuan couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm..." Ye Ling said, "Chongshan Province has a strong momentum of development and cannot be disrupted. Moreover, he was once a high-ranking official in Chongshan Province."
Ye Yixiuan knew who her father was talking about. She didn't expect that Zeng Wenjie would be noticed by such a big shot. She felt it was a little unbelievable.
However, it is normal to think about it. When serving as an official, one should benefit the people. No one will not have special feelings for the place where he was in power.
What's more, Chongshan is a place that is really too poor and backward, especially the farmers who live a hard life. How can those who care about the world not be worried about it?
Ye Yixiuan thought, no wonder some of the projects reported to Yanjing this year were approved so quickly and the money arrived especially quickly.
It turns out that it wasn't just "The Voice of China" that brought attention to the area, and the two major village-level competitions that promoted tourism, but also that the bigwigs have always been concerned about the poor provinces.
"We can't tell Xiao Zeng about this, otherwise this bastard will get angry again." Ye Yixiuan thought to herself and couldn't help but feel happy for him.
At this time, Zeng Wenjie had already met Yan Xinyi who was on vacation.
Yan Xinyi was dressed casually today, wearing sneakers, jeans, a small vest with a red and black plaid shirt on the outside, a baseball cap on her head, and a pair of black-framed glasses with an elder-like look on her face. She looked like a literary young woman.
Moreover, she is not wearing much makeup, and if you don't look closely, it is difficult to recognize that she is the well-known host under the General Administration.
She took Zeng Wenjie to a store to taste fried liver, and asked him if he wanted to try the special soy milk.
Zeng Wenjie directly refused the three bowls and turned the tables, saying, "How about I treat you? How about three bowls?"
Yan Xinyi smiled and said, "How do you know that bean juice tastes bad?"
Zeng Wenjie smiled contemptuously and said, "I know half of what flies in the sky, half of what swims in the water, and I know all of what runs on the ground."
"Okay, you know a lot." Yan Xinyi said.
At the first stop, Yan Xinyi planned to take him to climb down the Great Wall and then visit the Forbidden City.
As a rising star in the General Administration, Yan Xinyi certainly pays great attention to body management. She has to spend at least two or three days a week on fitness to maintain her figure, so there is no problem with her physical fitness.
Although Zeng Wenjie has a lot of social engagements now, he still maintains the habit of exercising every morning. While maintaining a good body fat, his physical condition is also good.
Moreover, at this age, he has never encountered a situation where he had to tell his opponent to "take a break" first.
There is a saying: If it works, it works; if it doesn’t, it doesn’t. What does it mean to take a break?
Only after experiencing the powerlessness of your thirties can you realize how powerful eighteen or nineteen years old are.
Time is unforgiving.
Zeng Wenjie looked at the winding Great Wall and couldn't help but laugh. "What would history be like now if Fusu hadn't committed suicide but instead led Meng Tian's Great Wall army back to Xianyang?"
Yan Xinyi was startled, and after thinking about it seriously, she said, "Then it will probably last longer, like the Han and Tang dynasties?"
Zeng Wenjie stroked the brick wall of the Great Wall with his hand, and couldn't help but think of Master Huang Yi's "A Step into the Qin Dynasty". When he watched the uncut version, it was really exciting.
"You like to study history?" Yan Xinyi asked.
"What man can resist talking about history and politics after a couple of drinks?" Zeng Wenjie asked happily.
Yan Xinyi thought about it carefully and it seemed to be true. Moreover, men's favorite topics to talk about were the Qin and Han Dynasties and the Three Kingdoms.
Yan Xinyi said, "Qin Shi Huang was ultimately too conceited. However, what man wouldn't feel elated after sweeping across the world, unifying the four seas, and proclaiming himself emperor?"
Zeng Wenjie said, "I'll give you a chance. Which dynasty would you most like to travel back to?"
Yan Xinyi thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow."
"Aren't you afraid of being chopped off by the Jinyiwei?" Zeng Wenjie said.
"Wouldn't it be nice if I dressed up as Queen Ma?" Yan Xinyi smiled, looking quite teasing.
Zeng Wenjie smacked his lips and had nothing to say.
Yan Xinyi asked, "What about you?"
Zeng Wenjie said without hesitation: "Southern Song Dynasty," and then without hesitation, he killed the messenger who was delivering the gold medal to Yue Fei on the way.
The two climbed the Great Wall while chatting about history.
Yan Xinyi discovered that although Zeng Wenjie did not have a high level of education, his understanding of history was quite profound. He did not seem like a science major, but rather a liberal arts major.
"It seems that we can't judge our President Zeng's culture by his academic qualifications. You must love reading, right?" Yan Xinyi said.
"I don't read any books. I just heard everything from others." Zeng Wenjie said seriously.
Yan Xinyi sneered, thinking that what he said was just like those people who tortured themselves madly to lose weight. When others asked how they did it, they would say that they could eat and drink whatever they wanted and they would naturally lose weight as long as they drank less beverages.
Yan Xinyi asked, "So, which historical figure do you admire most?"
"Who else could it be? Long live the people!" Zeng Wenjie suddenly shouted.
Yan Xinyi was startled, smiled and nodded slightly.
After coming down from the Great Wall, Yan Xinyi took Zeng Wenjie to taste authentic copper pot mutton hotpot, and personally helped him prepare the dipping sauce, which tasted excellent.
After eating and drinking, the sun was still shining brightly. God was really kind to us today.
After a short rest, we went to the Forbidden City. Funny enough, this was the first time for the founder of the Forbidden City jewelry series to visit the Forbidden City.
Yan Xinyi is very knowledgeable and acts as Zeng Wenjie's tour guide, introducing the sights they are about to visit in detail.
Zeng Wenjie does not have this kind of knowledge. Yan Xinyi can even talk about the meaning and specifications of the shape, and can even specify the year it was built, the year it was damaged, and the year it was rebuilt.
Zeng Wenjie, who doesn't like cultural attractions very much, didn't feel bored at all during the trip because he had such an awesome beautiful tour guide by his side. He enjoyed the trip very much.
But God began to displease him. The sky was covered with dark clouds and faint thunder could be heard.
The two people who were strolling happily suddenly felt a chill on their cheeks. Before they could react, heavy rain and strong winds came.
So, I had to hurriedly and awkwardly take shelter under the eaves of an ancient building with the surrounding tourists to avoid the rain.
Fortunately, I didn’t get wet too much, but there were so many people and the space was so narrow under the eaves that people were crowded together. Those who were a little further out were hit by the heavy rain and kept squeezing in.
Zeng Wenjie and Yan Xinyi ran fast and got a good spot, but were soon squeezed in by the influx of tourists.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, the squeezing and collisions, Yan Xinyi's pretty face flushed slightly, her hair was wet, and she looked a bit embarrassed and embarrassment.
Zeng Wenjie braced himself against the wall with both hands, using his sturdy back to create a foothold. He then held Yan Xinyi in front of him and said with a smile, "It seems like God can't stand us being too happy?"
"Did you say something unpleasant and make God unhappy?" Yan Xinyi asked pretending to ignore him. She leaned against the wall, a smile hiding her embarrassment on her lips, and tilted her head to look at the raindrops dripping from the eaves.
The crowd was too crowded and the weather was hot, so there was an uncomfortable smell, but when you got closer to Yan Xinyi, there was a refreshing fragrance.
I didn't notice that Yan Xinyi was wearing perfume today. The scent of this perfume is very elegant and fits her temperament very well. If you don't get close and smell it carefully, it's hard to smell it.
Zeng Wenjie is a country bumpkin and doesn’t understand the romantic or elegant atmosphere that luxury brands deliberately market. He just thinks it smells good.
It happened that the rain was getting heavier at this time, and the people outside pushed harder to squeeze in. Zeng Wenjie's back was bearing the weight of three or four people at the same time, and this time he couldn't hold on any longer, so he collapsed inwards and fell on Yan Xinyi.
"I didn't mean it, but I'm very grateful to those people who squeezed me just now." He didn't feel embarrassed at all, but chuckled in Yan Xinyi's ear.
"If you did it on purpose, I would have already shouted to catch the gangster!" Yan Xinyi snorted softly. She felt that the abnormal heat conduction made her a little distracted, and her heart was as messy as grass.
Then, Zeng Wenjie deliberately bumped into her and teased her, "It really wasn't intentional."
Yan Xinyi's ears turned red, and she finally couldn't look at the corner of the eaves anymore. She turned her head with a resentful look in her eyes.
Zeng Wenjie slowly withdrew his hands that were supporting the wall, put one hand around her shoulders and embraced the other end, and the other hand around her slender waist, and simply hugged the host in his arms.
Yan Xinyi first felt protected, and then felt taken advantage of.
Because it was really crowded here, even though the two of them had occupied a favorable position in advance, they were still squeezed and swayed.
Zeng Wenjie noticed that there were several young couples in the crowd, and they were also hugging each other.
Therefore, he and Yan Xinyi did not attract much attention, and everyone tacitly assumed that they were a couple.
As the rain got heavier, the space became narrower. In addition, Zeng Wenjie no longer supported himself against the wall with his hands, so the space became even more compressed.
Yan Xinyi's face was hidden under her baseball cap, and her expression could not be seen clearly.
Several young couples were already showing affection as if no one was around.
Zeng Wenjie reached out and lifted the brim of Yan Xinyi's hat, then pinched the brim, slowly turned the hat around, and pushed it down so that it was worn backwards.
Yan Xinyi didn't know how she was kissed for no apparent reason, and she didn't even refuse. She just felt a little panicked, a little confused, and a little sweet in her heart, and she subconsciously closed her eyes.
She felt that she was isolated from the whole world during those long two or three minutes.
Only after she regained her breath did she hear the thunder, the rain, the voices, and her own terrifyingly rapid heartbeat.
But before she could think clearly, she once again fell into the feeling of having all five senses blocked. This time it was even more intense and lingering. Her fingers couldn't help but grasp the other person's waist and ribs, and even dug deep into them without realizing it.
According to the planned route, to reach this point, it would take at least two or three more times of private time together. Because Yan Xinyi was the kind of girl who liked the rhythm of subtle intimacy.
But today, the weather was favorable, the tourists were supportive, and Zeng Wenjie had the ability and courage to go against the grain, so some slow processes were skipped.
When Yan Xinyi woke up, the rain had stopped. The sky was still a little gloomy, with only a few drizzles falling.
The space under the eaves is no longer crowded, but there are still a few couples hugging each other here.
"You are so sweet!" Zeng Wenjie smiled and pinched Yan Xinyi's red cheeks.
Yan Xinyi slapped his hand away and asked angrily, "Isn't that presumptuous?!"
An ordinary person would have panicked and either apologized or been so flustered that he didn't know how to respond.
But Zeng Wenjie is as steady as an old dog.
Then he asked, "May I be so presumptuous as to ask you again?"
Yan Xinyi's expression immediately changed, and she scolded, "How dare you!"
Zeng Wenjie is so brave!
Yan Xinyi pushed him away with a wry smile, saying, "Forget it, forget it. You're really so bold. I'll consider you awesome!"
She didn't expect that her expression failed to scare the other party, but instead she was stabbed again. At this moment, she was already at a loss and panic, and she always felt that there was a damp breath in her body about to burst out.
She herself did not realize that her resentful eyes were like waves of water. While five parts of blame were mixed with three parts of charm and one part of panic and immaturity.
"Let's go, the rain has stopped. Let's continue shopping and take me to eat roast duck in the evening." Zeng Wenjie said.
He took Yan Xinyi's hand, hooked his arm around her shoulder, and said with a smile, "This will make it easier for me to listen to your explanation."
Yan Xinyi said, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to, you rascal!"
However, she felt that everything was much more natural, so she continued to act as Zeng Wenjie's full-time tour guide while touring the place, explaining every story in detail and attentively.
Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but admire Yan Xinyi's astonishing knowledge reserves. She is worthy of being a top talent from Yenching University. She is really amazing!
We are all human beings and we all have brains, so why is my study so bad?
After Yan Xinyi's mouth was dry, she said, "I won't explain the rest. I'm a little tired."
Zeng Wenjie said, "Okay, at worst I'll just take a closer look at the instructions."
Yan Xinyi said, "It doesn't explain it as well as I could."
Zeng Wenjie said, "That's right! I think you can definitely ask your superiors to create a variety show about history."
Yan Xinyi glanced at him and said, "I'm not qualified to be on Lecture Room. Those are for professors."
Zeng Wenjie said, "I said to establish it, not to let you appear on Lecture Room."
Yan Xinyi's heart moved, and she immediately asked with a smile: "So, Wenjie, do you have any good suggestions?"
"We created a program like this, listen to me..."
"Let's first select some historical figures with tragic and controversial stories, such as Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang of Shu Han, and national heroes Yue Fei and Zong Ze." He paused when he said this, "Even if the emperor comes, Yue Fei is also a national hero."
Yan Xinyi looked at him strangely and said, "Yue Fei is a national hero!"
Zeng Wenjie coughed, waved his hand to signal him not to interrupt, and continued, "We'll invite celebrities like Du Fu, Su Shi, Wang Yangming, and so on. We'll also invite star actors, specifically veteran actors and national-level actors, to play these historical figures and have them travel through time in our show to have a dialogue between the past and the present!"
Yan Xinyi's eyes lit up as she listened, and she thought this idea was very novel.
"Multiple stages, different scenes, connected by an ancient book..." Zeng Wenjie told the story of "China in Classics" and Yan Xinyi got goose bumps.
Then, the talented Yan Xinyi was shocked and looked at him as if he were a monster.
Zeng Wenjie, who was able to create "The Voice of China" and "King of Masked Singer", demonstrated his creativity and imagination in the field of music variety shows, but the variety show he verbally described at this moment was extremely profound and was a promotion and inheritance of China's history and culture.
What is the most important responsibility of the General Administration? It is publicity and culture!
Someone had originally proposed an idea similar to "Dialogue between Ancient and Modern Times", but the planning was a mess and not attractive at all, so it was directly rejected.
Zeng Wenjie proposed a specific plan this time, focusing the core on the classics handed down from generation to generation that every Chinese is familiar with, such as "The Book of Documents", "The Analects of Confucius", "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "Records of the Grand Historian", and then unfolding stories from them.
Just by listening to his general idea, Yan Xinyi got goosebumps all over her body.
"I... I... this program is very good, but I am not qualified to submit this kind of application, but... can I ask Teacher Sa to come along?" Yan Xinyi was so excited that she stuttered.
Because she also realized that this would definitely be a hit program, and it had lofty intentions and great depth, and the leaders would definitely like it very much.
If she could really host a program like this, she was sure that her status in the General Administration would soar!
When Zeng Wenjie heard that she wanted to bring Teacher Sa along with her to apply, he immediately became happy and said, "Of course, if we have Teacher Sa, the effect of this program will be even better!"
Yan Xinyi swallowed her saliva and said, "I'll write a plan when I get back, sign your name, and bring Teacher Sa along to apply together."
Zeng Wenjie glanced at her and said, "You don't have to sign my name. I don't care about these things."
Yan Xinyi said, "No, no, no, it's actually important to you. This is an age of entertainment to death. A program like this is completely different from a music variety show. The fame and impression you can get are also extraordinary! Do you know that your program has been recognized by the General Administration and even broadcast on CCTV, and it promotes national culture? What a concept!"
When Zeng Wenjie heard this, he felt that this made sense.
"I will sign you as the chief planner, and Teacher Sa and I will just serve as deputy directors." Yan Xinyi said.
"This... I'm afraid I'll have to go to Yanjing more often, right?" Zeng Wenjie was tempted, but then he smiled bitterly.
Yan Xinyi said, "It's okay. Phone calls and video calls are very convenient nowadays! I'll talk to the boss and help you mediate. There's no need for you to keep coming to meetings or anything like that."
Zeng Wenjie knew that the leader she was talking about was the one who led the team last time, and then he nodded hesitantly.
"I'll send you the plan after I write it, and then you can revise it. Just now, you've clearly explained the core and the outline, and I'm sure I can write it." Yan Xinyi said excitedly.
"Okay then. It happens that I have to go on Teacher Sa's show tomorrow, so I can communicate with him first." Zeng Wenjie said.
"Yes, yes, please tell me! You are much more important than me." Yan Xinyi said with a smile.
Zeng Wenjie said, "You see, inviting me out to play has its benefits. Look, I just got inspired and came up with a great show for you!"
Yan Xinyi said happily, "Yes, it seems I'll have to invite you to visit more scenic spots in the future. Who knows, maybe we can get some new ideas?"
Zeng Wenjie curled his lips and said proudly, "That will only happen if God makes it rain!"
Yan Xinyi's smile froze. She couldn't help but reach out and pinched his waist hard, twisting it half a circle, and said bitterly, "You're so poor!"
After saying this, she walked forward quickly, no longer paying attention to Zeng Wenjie.
Zeng Wenjie did not chase after him, but just followed slowly behind, looking left and right, looking very comfortable.
Yan Xinyi walked a long way out and stood there waiting for him, staring at him with eyes wide open, looking a little resentful.
"Believe it or not, I'll just leave you in there and not care about you. If you get lost, so be it!" Yan Xinyi said.
"That doesn't matter. Maybe I can travel back in time." Zeng Wenjie said with a smile.
"If you travel back to the end of the Ming Dynasty and the day when Li Zicheng entered Beijing, you would be Chongzhen!" Yan Xinyi said coldly.
"Hiss..." Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but take a breath after hearing this, "As expected, women are the most vicious!"
Seeing that he looked a little scared, Yan Xinyi couldn't help but burst out laughing and asked, "Are you really scared?"
Of course Zeng Wenjie is afraid. He is reborn. What will he do if what this beautiful host said comes true?
Although Boss Zeng seems fearless now, he actually still has a sense of awe towards these strange and supernatural beings in his heart.
"Chongzhen is also quite pitiful." Zeng Wenjie said.
"Indeed." Yan Xinyi said.
Then, she took the initiative to turn the topic to "China in Classics" which Zeng Wenjie had just mentioned.
Zeng Wenjie told Yan Xinyi everything he knew, and she nodded repeatedly, amazed in her heart. It was really hard to believe that this 19-year-old boy had so many brilliant ideas in his head!
Oh yeah, he’s only nineteen?
Yan Xinyi felt her cheeks suddenly burning and a little hot.
Zeng Wenjie's achievements and his composure and calmness beyond his years always make it easy to overlook his age.
After thinking about it carefully, Yan Xinyi felt that she was getting along with a mature middle-aged man in his thirties.
After the tour, on the way to the hotel, Yan Xinyi told Zeng Wenjie about the customs and culture of Yanjing, as well as the amazing driving skills of the drivers in the alleys.
After arriving at the hotel, they asked for a small private room. Yan Xinyi ordered special dishes and roast duck, making it a very sumptuous meal.
"Is it a bit of a waste?" Zeng Wenjie asked.
"It's a treat for you. I'll pack up the leftovers." Yan Xinyi smiled. "I live alone and sometimes I don't want to cook. Microwave heating is good."
Zeng Wenjie said, "Then you have to teach me, a country bumpkin, how to eat roast duck?"
He did it on purpose.
Yan Xinyi didn't know, so she demonstrated it carefully and then handed it to him.
Unexpectedly, the shameless guy opened his mouth directly and gestured "Show it in my mouth".
Yan Xinyi laughed helplessly and could only stuff the rolled roast duck into Zeng Wenjie's mouth, and complained: "You are so lazy!"
Zeng Wenjie chewed the roast duck and said happily, "It's delicious. Please forgive me, a country bumpkin, for eating roast duck for the first time."
Yan Xinyi couldn't help but smile and said, "Come to Yanjing often in the future, and I'll take you to eat all the delicious food I've tried!"
Zeng Wenjie said, "Okay, I hope you don't mind me wasting your salary."
Yan Xinyi said, "My salary isn't actually low, but in a place like Yanjing, it still seems a bit embarrassing."
Zeng Wenjie nodded and said, "When you become a more famous person, you can earn more money. Although you can't accept advertisements, writing articles is not prohibited."
Yan Xinyi smiled and said, "Of course. The royalties are a major source of support for my life in Yanjing."
There was a table full of dishes, and they originally thought that they would not be able to finish them. However, after walking around all day, they were already starving, and the atmosphere was very pleasant, with everyone talking and laughing. Before they knew it, they had finished the meal.
"Would you like more food? I'm a little full." Yan Xinyi wiped her mouth and asked softly.
"I'm full too!" said Zeng Wenjie.
Yan Xinyi snapped her fingers and said, "Let's go. I'll pay the bill, and then I'll take you back to rest. You should be in top form tomorrow for Teacher Sa's interview program."
When I came out of the private room and was about to walk out, I ran into someone I didn't get along with.
Yanjing is so big, and we happened to meet each other. It can only be said that we are enemies who meet in a narrow road.
"Oh, isn't this one of our future top ten outstanding young people? What a coincidence, we can actually meet him!" Yan Xueyou said exaggeratedly, pointing at Zeng Wenjie.
"Wow? Who is this? Oh, it's Xinyi."
After taking a look, he added in an exaggerated tone.
Xu Yuhuan frowned slightly and reached out to pull him.
Zeng Wenjie said coldly, "I heard a dog barking from a distance. Turns out there really is a dog breaking in!"
Yan Xueyou grinned and said, "Come to participate in the interview? Tsk, it seems a bit unfortunate, a friend of mine has also been nominated, and he might take your place!"
Yan Xinyi frowned and said, "Boss Yan, Boss Zeng is a guest from afar. As the host, there's no need to make things so awkward."
"If he knew that people from afar are guests, he wouldn't have thrown tea on my face!" Yan Xueyou suddenly became ferocious and said viciously. He had been brooding over this matter.
Zeng Wenjie laughed and said, "You can only use this to disgust me, right? You useless piece of shit."
Then, he pointed at Yan Xueyou and laughed, "That idiot used 10 million to humiliate me, and then I raised 86 million in the A round. Now the B round is about to start. How many 10 million can we raise?"
Yan Xinyi was speechless, then shook her head helplessly, not knowing what to say.
"Do you think I really care whether I win the award this year? For me, what does it matter if it's a year earlier or later? I'm still young, unlike you who are in your thirties but have accomplished nothing." Zeng Wenjie shook his head and said lightly.
Yan Xueyou was instantly a little upset when he thought that this little bastard was only nineteen years old.
"I will never make sure you can get it!" Yan Xueyou couldn't hold it in and boasted.
"You have no say." Zeng Wenjie smiled. He was satisfied when he saw the opponent's defense was broken.
People nowadays are so thin-skinned that their defenses are easily broken. It is so non-challenging.
Of course, this is also due to his age and achievements. The two complement each other, which is really enviable.
He waved his hand gently at Yan Xinyi and said, "Let's go. Don't waste time on this kind of person."
Yan Xueyou said angrily: "Just leave if you want to?"
"You idiot, try touching me." Zeng Wenjie said disapprovingly.
After saying this, he walked straight out the door.
Xu Yuhuan grabbed Yan Xueyou and said in a cold tone, "Don't cause trouble, otherwise Master Lin won't protect you. He said, don't provoke Zeng Wenjie again."
Yan Xueyou took two deep breaths before giving up. "I was mocking him, how did it make me feel so bad?!"
Xu Yuhuan sighed, patted Yan Xueyou's shoulders twice, and said, "Forget it, forget it. Let's eat first. He's waiting for you to do anything to him... Do you think he's the kind of small shrimp you can easily manipulate?"
Yan Xueyou couldn't help but lower his head, feeling a little depressed.
The heavy blow launched against Marennia not only failed to defeat Zeng Wenjie, but instead made the brand's reputation known to everyone.
More importantly, there was no rift in the close relationship between Zeng Wenjie and the authorities. If the two could be alienated, then there would be a hundred ways to deal with him.
"So let's just leave it at that?" Yan Xueyou asked.
"What else can we do? We can only disgust him with these things. We can't do anything to him, and he can't do anything to Jiucheng." Xu Yuhuan said.
Jacky Yan really regretted not finding Feng Xiao earlier. At that time, he should have stepped on Zeng Wenjie to death and put an end to it. Why would he feel so sick when thinking about it now?
"I didn't expect to meet you. Sorry, I didn't mean to do that." Yan Xinyi said to Zeng Wenjie.
"It doesn't matter. I think everything today is perfect! Even though we met a disgusting person in the end, I'm still very happy. I won't eat less roast duck because of him. On the contrary, he will not be able to eat because of me!" Zeng Wenjie said to Yan Xinyi with a smile.
Yan Xinyi couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, then she laughed, shook her head helplessly, and said, "What you said seems to make some sense, huh? Hahaha..."
Zeng Wenjie said, "Besides, it's not certain that I won't win the award this year. The key is whether Mr. Zhuang is willing to support me."
Yan Xinyi said, "Mr. Zhuang will definitely support you wholeheartedly. Besides, your appearance on Teacher Sa's show is also a turning point. It can make those conservative bosses change their minds."
